CACHE, INC.
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments necessary, which are considered normal
and recurring, to present fairly the financial position of the Company at
March 29, 2003, March 30, 2002 and December 28, 2002, and the results of
operations and cash flows for the thirteen week periods ended March 29, 2003
and March 30, 2002.

Certain financial information, which is normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America, but which is not required for
interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest
annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2002.

Net income includes all sources of comprehensive income. There were no
adjustments for foreign currency translation, unrealized gains (losses) on
investments or deferred compensation expense incurred in fiscal 2002 or
fiscal 2003 results.


2. BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS

Basic and diluted earnings per share has been computed based on the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the thirteen weeks
ended March 29, 2003 and March 30, 2002.

The approximate number of shares used in the computations of basic and
diluted earnings per share were 9,120,000 and 9,597,000, respectively, for
the thirteen week period ended March 29, 2003 and 9,100,000 and 9,474,000,
respectively, for the thirteen week period ended March 30, 2002.

The Company accounts for options granted under the 2000 Stock Option Plan
and 1994 Stock Option Plan in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees" under which no compensation cost has been
recognized for stock option awards granted at fair market value. Had
compensation expense for the Plan been determined based on the fair value at
the grant dates for awards under the Plan, consistent with the method of
SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and
Disclosure", the Company's net earnings, basic EPS and diluted EPS would have
been reduced to the pro forma amounts listed below:

5. BANK DEBT

During November 2002, the Company reached an agreement with its bank to extend
the maturity of the Amended Revolving Credit Facility until November 30, 2005.
Pursuant to the newly Amended Revolving Credit Facility, $15,000,000 is
available until expiration at November 30, 2005. The amounts outstanding
thereunder bear interest at a maximum per annum rate equal to the bank's prime
rate. The agreement contains selected financial and other covenants. Effective
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Revolving Credit Facility,
the Company grants to the bank a security interest in the Company's inventory
and certain receivables. We are in compliance with all loan covenants.

There have been no borrowings against the line of credit during fiscal 2002 and
fiscal 2003. There were outstanding letters of credit of $527,000 and $750,000,
pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility, at March 29, 2003 and March 30, 2002,

----------- -----------
$ 1,059,000 $ 1,166,000
=========== ===========

7. CONTINGENCIES

The Company is exposed to a number of asserted and unasserted potential claims.
In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters is not presently
expected to have a material adverse effect upon our financial position and
results of operations.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
- -------------

Except for the historical information and current statements contained in this
Form 10-Q, certain matters discussed herein, including, without limitation,
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties,
including, without limitation, the effect of economic and market conditions
and competition, the ability to open new stores and expand into new markets,
and risks relating to foreign importing operations, which would cause actual
results to differ materially.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

The following table sets forth our results of operations for the thirteen week
periods ended March 29, 2003 and March 30, 2002, expressed as a percentage of
net sales.

Thirteen Weeks Ended
-----------------------
March 30, March 30,
2003 2002
--------- ---------
Sales 100.0% 100.0%
Cost of sales 58.4% 58.9%
Gross profit 41.6% 41.1%
Store operating expenses 30.3% 28.3%
General and administrative expenses 6.0% 6.8%
Operating income 5.4% 6.0%
Other income 0.2% 0.1%
Income before income taxes 5.5% 6.1%
Income tax provision 2.1% 2.2%
Net income 3.4% 3.9%

Net sales
- ---------

Net sales increased to $47.9 million from $47.6 million, an increase of
$241,000 or 0.5%, over the prior fiscal quarter. Net sales from new stores and
non-comparable stores were $1.7 million during the current quarter. Comparable
store sales (sales for stores open at least one year or more) decreased $1.5
million or 3%, during the quarter.

Gross profit
- ------------

Gross profit increased to $19.9 million from $19.6 million, an increase of
$361,000, or 1.8% over the prior fiscal quarter. As a percentage of net sales,
gross profit increased to 41.6% from 41.1%. This increase as a percentage of
net sales was primarily due to higher initial margins resulting from a reduction
in the number of our vendors and the number of stock keeping units and changes
in sales mix. Higher buying and occupancy costs, as well as higher markdowns,
partially offset the initial gross margin improvements.

Store operating expenses
- ------------------------

Store operating expenses increased to $14.5 million from $13.5 million, an
increase of $1.0 million or 7.7% over the prior fiscal quarter. As a percentage
of net sales, store operating expenses increased to 30.3% from 28.3%, primarily
due to a higher marketing and advertising expense of $387,000 and higher
payroll and employee-related expenses of $385,000.


General and administrative expenses
- -----------------------------------

General and administrative expenses decreased to $2.9 million from $3.2 million,
a decrease of $392,000 or 12.1%, below the prior fiscal quarter. As a percentage
of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased to 6.0% from 6.8%,
primarily due to lower corporate payroll and employee-related costs.

Income taxes
- ------------

Income taxes decreased to $1.0 million from $1.1 million, for the prior fiscal
quarter. The decrease was attributable to lower taxable income and was partially
offset by an increase in our effective tax rate from 36.5% in fiscal 2002 to
38.3% in fiscal 2003. The increase in our overall effective tax rate is
primarily attributable to a change in the mix of income subject to tax in the
various states in which we conduct business.

Net income
- ----------

Net income decreased to $1.6 million from $1.9 million for the prior fiscal
quarter, primarily due to higher store operating expenses.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

Our cash requirements are primarily for the construction of new stores and
inventory purchases for these stores, as well as the remodeling of existing
stores. We have historically satisfied our cash requirements principally
through cash flow from operations. As of March 29, 2003, we had working capital
of $27.3 million, which included cash and marketable securities totaling $21.4
million.






9


During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2003, we increased our cash and cash
equivalents by $5.5 million, primarily due to matured investments of $8.7
million, net income of $1.6 million and depreciation of $1.2 million, offset by
changes in assets and liabilities of approximately $4.3 million, and
expenditures for our new store expansion and remodeling program totaled $2.0
million.

We plan to open between 15 and 20 new stores during fiscal 2003. Three new
stores were opened in March 2003 and two new stores opened in April. We
anticipate opening the remaining new stores during the summer and fall of 2003.
We renovated eight existing stores in the first quarter. After deducting
construction allowances paid to the Company by its landlords, we spent $2.0
million through March 29, 2003 and expect to spend an additional five to six
million dollars in 2003, for both new store and existing store construction
and remodeling.

We believe that cash flows from operations, our current available cash and
funds available under our $15.0 million revolving credit facility, will be
sufficient to meet our working capital needs and contemplated new store
expansion for at least the next 12 months. If our cash flow from operations
should decline significantly or if we should accelerate our store expansion
or remodeling program, it may be necessary for us to seek additional sources
of capital.
