BOWL AMERICA INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Twenty-six Weeks Ended
December 26, 2004
(Unaudited)
1. Basis for Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Bowl America Incorporated and subsidiaries (the "Company"), have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 27, 2004
has been derived from the Company's June 27, 2004 audited financial statements.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual
financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed
or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company
believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications (all of
which are of a normal, recurring nature) that are necessary for the fair
presentation for the periods presented. It is suggested that these
condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's latest annual report to the Securities and Exchange Commission
on Form 10-K for the year ended June 27, 2004.
2. Marketable Equity Securities
Marketable equity securities are carried at fair value in accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 115. At December 26, 2004, the fair value of
these securities was $4,489,683, with an original cost of $757,074, resulting
in an unrealized gain of $3,732,609. The telecommunications stocks included
in the portfolio as of December 26, 2004 were:
2,209 shares of Agere
3,946 shares of Alltel
669 shares of Avaya
27,572 shares of Bell South
8,028 shares of Lucent Technologies
9,969 shares of Qwest Communications
45,580 shares of SBC
40,000 shares of SprintFon
18,784 shares of Verizon

3. Commitments and Contingencies
In late September 2004, the Company signed a contract for approximately
$770,000 for site preparation relating to the building of a bowling center in
Henrico County, Virginia to be paid out as work is completed. During the
quarter ended December 26, 2004, approximately $48,000 had been paid for work
completed.
In February 2005, the Company signed a contract for the purchase of bowling
equipment for the new location totaling approximately $374,712. Delivery is
not expected prior to the end of fiscal 2005.
4. Reclassifications
Certain previous period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current
period presentation.
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
December 26, 2004
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Short-term investments consisting mainly of U.S. Government securities and
cash totaled $13,863,000 at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005, or
$905,000 higher than at the beginning of the quarter and $861,000 higher than
at the beginning of the fiscal year. The increased funds result primarily
from operations and reflect the seasonal nature of the bowling business which
is strongest from September through May. During the quarter ended December 26,
2004, the Company received $252,525 as merger compensation from Cingular
Wireless for the mandatory exchange of 16,835 shares of AT&T Wireless stock
held by the Company. No Cingular Wireless stock was received in the
transaction.
In the six-month period ended December 26, 2004, the Company expended
$1,025,000 for purchases of equipment to modernize facilities, including the
replacement of some amusement games and all remaining wooden bowling lanes.
Approximately $147,000 was spent for items relating to the construction of our
new bowling center in Henrico County, Virginia, $48,000 of which was partial
payment on the purchase obligation for site preparation and improvements. The
table below summarizes all purchase obligations as of February 8, 2005. It
includes $722,000 for site preparation and improvements for the new location
of which approximately one-third will be paid for by the seller from funds
escrowed at the time of purchase of the ground. Also included in purchase
obligations is $374,712 for a portion of the equipment for the center.
Construction of the new 40-lane facility, estimated to cost $5 million, began
in the second quarter and site work is continuing. The Company is actively
seeking property for additional locations. Cash and cash flow are sufficient
to finance all currently contemplated purchases and construction. The Company
has also maintained its fiscal year end 2004 position in marketable equity
securities, primarily telecommunications stocks, except as noted above, as a
further source of expansion capital.
These marketable securities are carried at their fair value on the last day of
the quarter. At December 26, 2004, the market value was approximately
$4,490,000 or $53,000 higher than at the beginning of the quarter.

=============================================================================
Current liabilities increase during the first three quarters of the fiscal year
as leagues deposit prize fund monies with the Company throughout the league
season. These funds are returned to the leagues at the end of the bowling
season, generally in the fourth quarter. At December 26, 2004, approximately
$1,500,000 in league deposits were included in the current liabilities
category.
While no factors calling for a change in the dividend rate are apparent, the
Board of Directors decides the amount and timing of any dividend at its
quarterly meeting based on its appraisal of the state of the business and its
estimate of future opportunities.
On December 7, 2004, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $.135
per share on its Class A and Class B stock to holders of record on January 10,
2005, payable February 9, 2005.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Eighteen centers were in operation in both the current and prior year periods.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company ceased operations at its
Silver Spring center and the sale of the center that was operating with a
negative cash flow was consummated in August 2003.
Net earnings were $.18 per share for the thirteen-week period ended
December 26, 2004, versus net earnings of $.17 per share for the thirteen weeks
ended December 28, 2003. For the current twenty-six week period net earnings
per share were $.24 compared to $.48 for the comparable period a year ago.
The gain on the sale of AT&T Wireless stock of $151,817 is included in the
Investment earnings category in the current quarter and six-month figures.
Prior year-to-date earnings included a net gain of $2,168,117 from the sale of
Silver Spring, after taxes. Without either sale earnings per share for the
six-month periods would have been $.22 and $.23, respectively.
Operating revenues decreased 3% in both of the three-month periods ended
December 26, 2004 and December 28, 2003. For the current six-month period
operating revenues were down 3% versus a decrease of 2% in the comparable
six-month period a year ago. Operating revenues from bowling and other
declined approximately 2% in both the current and prior year quarters, while
the six-months periods showed a decline of 2% and less than 1%, respectively.
The current year decrease in linage was partially offset by an increase in
corporate event activity and a higher average game rate.
Food, beverage and merchandise sales were down 3% in the current year quarter
and down 5% in the six-month period partially as a result of the closing, in
September 2003, of the full-service restaurant at Bowl America Gaithersburg.
Cost of food, beverage and merchandise sales declined due to the change at
Gaithersburg and lower sales.
Operating expenses excluding depreciation and amortization were down 1% and 4%
in the current three-month period and six-month periods, respectively, versus
no change in the periods last year. Employee compensation and benefits were
down 4% in the current six-month period and were flat in the prior year
comparable period.
Maintenance and repair costs were down 24% in the six-month period ended
December 26, 2004 partially due to the elimination of lane refinishing costs
for wooden lanes. The comparable period in the prior year reflected an
increase of 13%. Building and heating repairs and snow removal costs were
primarily responsible for the prior year increase. Advertising costs during
the current twenty-six week period increased 25% compared to a 17% increase
in the prior year comparable period. Utility costs for the quarter were up 1%
and were up 3% for the six-month period ended December 26, 2004 versus a
decrease of 2% for the comparable periods last year. Bowling supplies and
services costs were down 8% for the six-month period compared to a 6% decrease
in the prior year six-month period.
Rent expense was up 2% in the current year- to-date period versus flat in the
prior year six-month period. Insurance expense, excluding health and life,
decreased 7% through the six-month period ended December 26, 2004, as the
insurance market softened, compared to a 2% increase in the six-month period
a year ago.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 2% in the current year-to-date
period and decreased 7% in the comparable prior year period. Last year's
comparative decrease was due to the operation of one fewer center in 2004
than in 2003.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We have identified accounting for marketable investment securities under
SFAS 115 ("Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities")
as a critical accounting policy due to the significance of the amounts
included in our balance sheet under the captions of Short-term investments
and Marketable equity securities. The Company exercises judgment in
determining the classification of its investment securities as available-for-
sale and in determining their fair value. The Company records these
investments at their fair value with the unrealized gain or loss recorded in
accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders' equity,
net of deferred taxes. Additionally, from time to time the Company must
assess whether write-downs are necessary for other than temporary declines in
value.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk. Our short-term investments and certain cash equivalents
are subject to interest rate risk. We manage this risk by maintaining an
investment portfolio of available-for-sale instruments with high credit
quality and relatively short average maturities. The fair value of marketable
debt securities held was $12,258,000 and $9,838,000 at December 26, 2004 and
December 28, 2003, respectively. The fair value of certain fixed rate debt
securities will change depending on movements in interest rates. Declines in
interest rates will affect our interest income. Based on our portfolio of
debt securities at December 26, 2004, a 10% decline in the average yield would
have no material impact on annual interest income.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective
based on their evaluation of such controls and procedures as of December 26,
2004. There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial
reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during
the quarter ended December 26, 2004, that materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.

SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS UP AT BOWL AMERICA
Today Bowl America Incorporated announced that its fiscal 2005 second quarter
earnings were $.18 per share compared to $.17 in the comparable prior year
period. The current quarter included a gain on the sale of AT&T Wireless stock
of approximately $152,000, without which earnings per share would have been
$.16. For the current six months earnings per share were $.24. In fiscal
2004 the Company's gain on the sale of a building was $2,168,117. Excluding
the gains from the sale of assets, the earnings for the current and prior
six-month periods were $.22 and $.23 respectively.
Linage declined on a year-to-date basis in part because the quarter, which ended
December 26, 2004, was atypically warm, a condition that usually depresses
open-play business. Higher gasoline prices are also thought to impact
discretionary recreation spending.
Bowl America operates 18 bowling centers and site work for a new 40-lane
location in Richmond is continuing.
Bowl America Class A Common Stock trades on the American Stock Exchange with
the symbol BWLA. The Company's Form 10-Q is available at www.bowlamerica.com.
