ITEM 1. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

PIZZA INN, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Pizza Inn, Inc.
(the "Company") have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements have been
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the Company's audited
consolidated financial statements in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
June 27, 1999. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform
with current year presentation.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's
financial position and results of operations for the interim periods. All
adjustments contained herein are of a normal recurring nature.
(2) On September 27, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors declared a
quarterly dividend of $.06 per share on the Company's common stock, payable
October 22, 1999 to shareholders of record on October 8, 1999.
(3) The Company entered into an agreement effective August 31, 1999 with its
current lender to extend the term of its existing $9.5 million revolving credit
line through August 2001 and to modify certain financial covenants.
(4) In October 1999, the Company loaned $2,506,754 to certain officers of
the Company in the form of promissory notes due in June 2004 to acquire 900,000
shares of the Company's common stock through the exercise of vested stock
options previously granted to them in 1995 by the Company. The notes bear
interest at the same floating interest rate the Company pays on its credit
facility with Wells Fargo and are collaterized by certain real property and
existing Company stock owned by the officers. The notes will be reflected as a
reduction to stockholders' equity, therefore, causing the transaction to have no
net effect on stockholders' equity.
(5) The following table shows the reconciliation of the numerator and
denominator of the basic EPS calculation to the numerator and denominator
of the diluted EPS calculation (in thousands, except per share amounts).
(6) Summarized in the following tables are net sales and operating revenues,
operating profit (loss), and geographic information (revenues) for the Company's
reportable segments for the three months ended September 26, 1999, and September
27, 1998:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
- --------------
Quarter ended September 26, 1999 compared to the quarter ended September 27,
1998.
Diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of the current fiscal year
increased by 75% to $0.07 from $0.04 for the same period last year. Net income
for the quarter increased 59% to $747,000 from $470,000 for the same quarter
last year.
Food and supply sales increased 6% or $887,000 for the quarter compared to
the same period last year. Food and supply sales to domestic franchise
restaurants increased 4% or $623,000 compared to the same quarter last year due
to greater sales volume to franchised restaurants and higher cheese prices.
Equipment sales increased $362,000 due to additional sales to more full-service
stores opened during the quarter. Last year's sales also included temporary
closings of the Company's franchise restaurants in several larger revenue
producing southeastern states that were effected by hurricanes.
Franchise revenue, which includes income from royalties, license fees and
area development and foreign master license (collectively, "Territory") sales,
increased 1% or $15,000 over the same period last year. Domestic and
international royalties increased $61,000 due to higher chainwide sales. The
first quarter of the prior year included final recognition of $53,000 in
proceeds for Territory sales.
Restaurant sales, which consists of revenue generated by Company-owned
stores, decreased 3% or $19,000 due to the closing of one Delco store in August
1998. Comparable store sales growth at Company-owned stores increased 4% for
the quarter.
Other income, which consists primarily of interest income and non-recurring
revenue items decreased 79% or $73,000 for the quarter compared to the same
period last year. The prior year's quarter included recognition of $65,000 in
vendor incentives.
Cost of sales increased 5% or $644,000 compared to the same period last
year. This increase is due primarily to increased domestic retail sales as
noted above and increased vehicle costs caused by higher fuel prices. Cost of
sales, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 92% from 93% compared to the same
quarter last year.
Franchise expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses
directly related to the sale and service of franchises and Territories. These
costs decreased 12% or $85,000 for the first quarter primarily due to lower
compensation expense relating to franchise sales.
General and administrative expenses decreased 20% or $232,000 compared to
the same quarter last year primarily due to decreased miscellaneous expenses and
professional fees. Additionally, Company-owned store expenses were lower due to
increased cost efficiencies.
Interest expense increased 23% or $26,000 for the quarter, as the result of
higher debt balances and interest expense on the new capitalized leases.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the first quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company utilized cash provided
by operations in the amount of $1,136,000, bank borrowings of $800,000 and a
portion of its cash balances to purchase 332,500 shares of its own common stock
for $1,131,000 and to pay dividends of $706,000.
Capital expenditures of $133,000 purchased during the first quarter
included computer equipment and freezer upgrades.
In September 1999, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly
dividend of $0.06 per share on the Company's common stock, payable October 22,
1999 to shareholders of record on October 8, 1999.
The Company continues to realize substantial benefit from the utilization
of its net operating loss carryforwards (which currently total $9.6 million and
expire in 2005) to reduce its federal tax liability from the 31% to 34% tax rate
reflected on its statement of operations to an actual payment of approximately
2% of taxable income. Management believes that future operations will generate
sufficient taxable income, along with the reversal of temporary differences, to
fully realize its net deferred tax asset balance ($5.2 million as of September
26, 1999) without reliance on material, non-routine income. Taxable income in
future years at the same level as fiscal 1999 would be sufficient for full
realization of the net tax asset.
The Company has assessed its computerized systems to determine their
ability to correctly identify the year 2000 and is devoting the necessary
internal and external resources to replace, upgrade or modify all significant
systems related to the year 2000. The Company's assessment, purchase of new
equipment, installation of new software, conversion and testing of data are
completed. The Company fully implemented the new system in May 1999 and has
begun processing information.
Because third party computer failures could also have a material impact on
our ability to conduct business, confirmations were requested from our material
vendors and suppliers to certify that plans are being developed to address and
become compliant with the year 2000 issues. As of September 26, 1999, 80% have
replied and are comfortable with their preparations for the year 2000. The
Company believes that any year 2000 impact on its franchisee base will have no
material effect on the Company since sales information is not currently
communicated through computer systems. Through the assessment of the Company's
non-information technology systems, management has determined that no
modifications are required for year 2000 compliance in this area. The Company
will continue to assess and develop contingency plans, if needed, throughout the
remainder of 1999.
New software, testing, and conversion of systems and applications have been
completed and implemented. Total system upgrades are expected to position the
Company for anticipated future growth and enhance corporate service
capabilities. The cost of these upgrades will total approximately $1.2 million.
Of this cost, approximately $930,000 already has been incurred as of September
26, 1999. All of the above capital expenditures are funded through a 36-month
capitalized lease.

Company that are based on the beliefs of the management of the Company, as well
