For the six months ended July 30, 2000, systemwide sales increased 40.5% to $211.1 million from $150.2
million in the same period of last year. This increase was a result of an increase in company store sales of

Commenting on the second quarter results, Scott Livengood, Chairman, President and CEO of Krispy Kreme
Doughnuts, said: "We are very pleased with our second quarter performance. It is gratifying that these
excellent results were geographically broad based and across all sales channels. Our national expansion is also
going extremely well, both in terms of store openings and the strong sales being achieved in these new
markets."
During the quarter, six new Krispy Kreme stores (including one new commissary) were opened in Las Vegas,
NV; Owings Mills, MD; Gardena, CA; Roseville, MI; Chicago, IL; and Nashville, TN bringing the total
number of stores at July 30, 2000 to 154. Since the end of the quarter, Krispy Kreme has opened an additional
franchise store in Houston, TX. The company increased its projected store openings for the current fiscal
year from 22 to 28 new stores and expects to open 32 new stores in fiscal 2002.
As a result of continuing strong sales momentum and the raised estimate of new store openings, the company
increased earnings per share expectations to $1.00 for the current fiscal year.
The 63-year-old North Carolina-based company is a leading branded specialty retailer of premium quality
doughnuts, including the company's signature Hot Original Glazed. Krispy Kreme currently operates 154
