NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pacific Sunwear of California, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Pacific Sunwear Stores Corp. and ShopPacSun.com Corp. (the “Company”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. “Fiscal 2004” is the 52-week period ending January 29, 2005. “Fiscal 2003” was the 52-week period ended January 31, 2004. The second quarter and first half of fiscal 2004 were the 13- and 26-week periods ended July 31, 2004, respectively. The second quarter and first half of fiscal 2003 were the 13- and 26-week periods ended August 2, 2003, respectively.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring entries necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The results of operations for the second quarter and first half ended July 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for fiscal 2004. For further information, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2004.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies is contained in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Business,” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2004. Presented below in this and the following notes is supplemental information that should be read in conjunction with “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in that report.

Short-term Investments – Short-term investments are classified as held-to-maturity and consist of marketable corporate and U.S. agency debt instruments with original maturities of three months to one year and are carried at amortized cost, less other than temporary impairments in value. Cost is determined by specific identification. At July 31, 2004, the market value of the Company’s portfolio was $49.6 million, consisting of corporate debentures of $23.5 million, U.S. agency debentures of $17.7 million, corporate commercial paper of $4.4 million and U.S. Treasury notes of $4.0 million.

Stock Split – In August 2003, the Company effected a three-for-two stock split. All share and per share amounts have been restated to give effect to the stock split in prior periods.

Stock-Based Compensation – The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 and, accordingly, does not currently include compensation expense related to stock options in reported net income. The Company follows the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 (“SFAS 148”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.” SFAS 148 requires disclosure of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share in annual and interim financials statements. The Company is

6

required to follow the prescribed disclosure format and has provided the additional disclosures required by SFAS 148 for the second quarter and first half ended July 31, 2004 below.

SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” requires the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share. Under SFAS 123, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated through the use of option-pricing models, even though such models were developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which significantly differ from the Company’s stock option awards. These models also require subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The Company’s calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following ranges of weighted average assumptions: expected life, 5 years; stock volatility of 37.0% to 37.8% for fiscal 2004 and 45.3% to 53.7% for fiscal 2003; risk-free interest rates of 3.6% to 3.7% for fiscal 2004 and 2.9% to 3.3% for fiscal 2003; and no dividends during the expected term. The Company’s calculations are based on a single-option valuation approach and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. If the computed fair values of the fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003 awards had been amortized to expense over the vesting period of the awards, net income and earnings per share for the second quarter and first half ended July 31, 2004 and August 2, 2003, respectively, would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

New Accounting Pronouncements – In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FIN 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” and in December 2003, issued FIN 46(R) (revised December 2003) “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities — An Interpretation of ARB No. 51.” In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46(R) clarifies the application of ARB No. 51, “Consolidated Financial

7

Statements,” to certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without subordinated financial support from other parties. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. FIN 46(R) applies immediately to variable interest entities created after December 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies no later than the first reporting period ending after March 15, 2004, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest (other than special purpose) that it acquired before January 1, 2004. FIN 46(R) applies to public enterprises as of the beginning of the applicable interim or annual period. The Company believes that the adoption of FIN 46 and FIN 46(R) will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations because the Company has no interest in variable interest entities.

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 03-1 (“EITF 03-1”), “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments,” for which the measurement and recognition provisions are effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004. EITF 03-1 provides a three-step process for determining whether investments, including debt securities, are other than temporarily impaired and requires additional disclosures in annual financial statements. An investment is impaired if the fair value of the investment is less than its cost. EITF 03-1 outlines that an impairment would be considered other-than-temporary unless: a) the investor has the ability and intent to hold an investment for a reasonable period of time sufficient for the recovery of the fair value up to (or beyond) the cost of the investment, and b) evidence indicating that the cost of the investment is recoverable within a reasonable period of time outweighs evidence to the contrary. Although not presumptive, a pattern of selling investments prior to the forecasted recovery of fair value may call into question the investor’s intent. In addition, the severity and duration of the impairment should also be considered in determining whether the impairment is other-than-temporary. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF 03-1 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations because the Company has the ability and intent to hold any of its held-to-maturity marketable securities with gross unrealized losses until a recovery of fair value at maturity.

Reclassifications – Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 3 – DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND OTHER ASSETS

The Company maintains an Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Executive Plan”) covering Company officers that is funded by participant contributions and periodic Company discretionary contributions. The deferred compensation asset balance represents the investments held by the Company to cover the vested participant balances in the Executive Plan of $12,062 and $10,925 included in long-term liabilities as of July 31, 2004 and January 31, 2004, respectively.

NOTE 4 – ACCRUED LIABILITIES

Accrued liabilities consist of the following:

NOTE 5 – COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE AND RETIREMENT

The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a common stock repurchase plan in three separate authorizations. The Company’s stock repurchase activity under this plan is as follows:

(all amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

(1) On January 28, 2004, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had authorized the Company to purchase up to $50 million or 2.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock in open market transactions. There was no expiration date specified for this authorization. During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company had substantially completed its repurchase and retirement of shares pursuant to this authorization.

(2) On May 10, 2004, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had authorized the Company to purchase up to an additional $25 million of the Company’s common stock in open market transactions. There was no expiration date specified for this authorization. During the second quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company had substantially completed its repurchase and retirement of shares pursuant to this authorization.

(3) On August 18, 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase up to an additional $50 million of the Company’s common stock in open market transactions. There was no expiration date specified for this authorization.

NOTE 6 – RESTRICTED STOCK

During the year ended January 30, 2000, the Company granted a restricted stock award of 112,500 shares with a purchase price of $0.01 per share to its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The award is scheduled to vest 25% on each of September 17, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, if, in each instance, certain cumulative annual earnings per share growth targets have been satisfied. Under the award agreement, shares that do not vest at a given vesting date due to the cumulative annual earnings per share growth targets not being met remain available for future vesting if the cumulative annual earnings per share growth targets are met as of a subsequent vesting date. During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors verified that the final cumulative annual earnings per share growth target for this award had been met. Accordingly, the CEO became immediately vested in and received 75% of the total share award, or 84,375 shares. The remaining 25%, or 28,125 shares, will become fully vested and be delivered to the CEO on September 17, 2004. As a result of the delivery of 84,375 shares to the CEO during the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company reclassified previously recognized compensation expense of $1.9 million from accrued liabilities to additional paid-in capital. At July 31, 2004, the Company had accrued $.5 million to recognize the cumulative vested fair value of the remaining 28,125 shares to be delivered on September 17, 2004. This amount is included in accrued liabilities (see Note 4) on the balance sheet. The Company will be required to account for these final 28,125 shares under variable accounting rules, which will require adjustments to compensation expense until the delivery date based on additional vesting of the shares and changes in the market price of the Company’s stock. For example, based on the closing market price of the Company’s stock at July 31, 2004 of $20.40, the Company would be required to record additional compensation expense of approximately $.1 million through September 17, 2004. Additionally, based on any change in the market price of the Company’s stock until the delivery date, the cumulative compensation expense recognized for this portion of this award will continue to be adjusted.

During the year ended February 4, 2001, the Company granted a restricted stock award of 168,750 shares with a purchase price of $0.01 per share to its CEO. The award is scheduled to vest 25% on each of March 15, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005, if, in each instance, certain cumulative annual earnings per share growth targets have been satisfied. Under the award agreement, shares that do not vest at a given vesting date due to the cumulative annual earnings per share growth targets not being met remain available for future vesting if the cumulative annual earnings per share growth targets are met as of a subsequent vesting date. During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors verified that the third cumulative annual earnings per share growth target for this award had been met. Accordingly, the CEO became immediately vested in and received 75% of the total share award, or 126,563 shares. The remaining 25%, or 42,187 shares, will vest and be received by the CEO in March 2005 upon confirmation by the Board of Directors that the fiscal 2004 cumulative annual earnings per share growth target has been met by the Company. As a result of the delivery of 126,563 shares to the CEO during the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company reclassified previously recognized compensation expense of $2.9 million from accrued liabilities to additional paid-in capital. At July 31, 2004, the Company had accrued $.4 million to recognize the cumulative vested fair value of the remaining 42,187 shares. This amount is included in accrued liabilities (see Note 4) on the balance sheet. The Company will be required to account for these final 42,187 shares under variable accounting rules, which will require adjustments to compensation expense until the delivery date based on additional vesting of the shares and changes in the market price of the Company’s stock. For example, based on the market price of the Company’s stock at July 31, 2004 of $20.40, the Company would be required to record additional compensation expense of approximately $.5 million through March 15, 2005. Additionally, based on any change in the market price of the Company’s stock until the delivery date, the cumulative compensation expense recognized for this portion of this award will continue to be adjusted.

NOTE 7 – NET INCOME PER SHARE, BASIC AND DILUTED

The following table summarizes the computation of EPS (all amounts in thousands except share and per share amounts):

Second Quarter Ended:

First Half Ended:

Options to purchase 1,221,266 and 3,750 shares of common stock in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003, respectively, and 915,644 and 138,066 shares of common stock in the first half of fiscal 2004 and fiscal 2003, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because the option exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common stock.

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation – During fiscal 2003, the Company reached an agreement to settle all claims related to two lawsuits concerning overtime pay for a total of $4.0 million. The suits were Auden v. Pacific Sunwear of California, Inc., which was filed September 17, 2001, and Adams v. Pacific Sunwear of California, Inc., which was filed August 2, 2002. The complaints alleged that the Company improperly classified certain California based employees as “exempt” from overtime pay. In the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company paid substantially all amounts due pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement. The settlement did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations for fiscal 2004 or fiscal 2003.

The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental to its business. Management believes that the outcome of current litigation will not have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or financial condition of the Company.

Indemnities, Commitments, and Guarantees – During its normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include those given to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility or lease and indemnities to directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of California. The Company has issued guarantees in the form of standby letters of credit as security for merchandise shipments from overseas. There were $18.9 million of these letters of credit outstanding at July 31, 2004. In the first quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company issued a guarantee within a sublease on one of its former store locations under which the Company remains secondarily liable on the sublease should the sublessee default on its lease payments. The term of the sublease ends December 31, 2014. At July 31, 2004, the Company had $.4 million recorded in accrued liabilities to recognize the estimated fair value of this guarantee

11

assuming that another sublessee would be found within one year should the original sublessee default. The aggregate rental payments remaining on the master lease agreement at July 31, 2004, were $5.7 million. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, is indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets other than as noted.

The Company maintains a private label credit card through a third party to promote the PacSun brand image and lifestyle. The third party services the customer accounts and retains all risk and financial obligation associated with any outstanding balances on customer accounts. The Company has no financial obligation and does not provide any guarantee related to any outstanding balances resulting from the use of these private label credit cards by its customers.

Sublease Loss Charges – During the second quarter ended July 31, 2004, the Company executed a lease termination agreement related to the Company’s former corporate offices and distribution center. As a result of executing this agreement, the Company retains no future obligations regarding these premises. The terms of this agreement resulted in the Company reversing $.9 million in previously accrued liabilities.

The Company remains liable under an operating lease covering a former store location. The Company has subleased 3,200 of a total 5,200 square feet of these premises. At July 31, 2004, the Company had $1.6 million recorded in accrued liabilities to account for the Company’s net remaining contractual lease obligations for this location, which includes estimated sublease assumptions for the remaining 2,000 square feet. The Company continues to update its sublease assumptions on a quarterly basis based on its review of current real estate market conditions and any on-going negotiations. To the extent management’s estimates relating to the Company’s ability to sublease these facilities at the assumed rates or within the assumed timeframes changes or is incorrect, additional charges or reversals of previous charges may be recorded in the future. At July 31, 2004, the gross remaining obligations under the Company’s original lease, exclusive of any sublease income, were approximately $6.5 million.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONS

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of the Company included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors” in this section.

Executive Overview

Management of the Company considers the following items to be key performance indicators in evaluating Company performance:

Comparable (or “same store”) sales – Stores are deemed comparable stores on the first day of the month following the one-year anniversary of their opening or expansion/relocation. Management of the Company considers same store sales to be an important indicator of current Company performance. Same store sales results are important in achieving operating leverage of certain expenses such as store payroll, store occupancy, depreciation, general and administrative expenses, and other costs that are somewhat fixed. Positive same store sales results generate greater operating leverage of expenses while negative same store sales results negatively impact operating leverage. Same store sales results also have a direct impact on the Company’s total net sales, cash, and working capital.

Net merchandise margins – Management analyzes the components of net merchandise margins, specifically initial markups and markdowns as a percentage of net sales. Any inability to obtain acceptable levels of initial markups or any significant increase in the Company’s use of markdowns could have an adverse impact on the Company’s gross margin results and results of operations.

Operating margin – Management views operating margin as a key indicator of the Company’s success. The key drivers of operating margins are comparable store net sales, net merchandise margins, and the Company’s ability to control operating expenses. Operating margin as a percentage of net sales for the first half of fiscal 2004 was 10.5% as compared to 8.0% for the first half of fiscal 2003. Full fiscal year operating margins for fiscal 2003, 2002 and 2001, were 12.3%, 9.6% and 6.5%, respectively. The first half of the Company’s fiscal year historically accounts for a smaller percentage of annual net sales and operating margin as compared to the second half. The Company’s highest historical operating margin was 12.9% for fiscal 1999.

Store sales trends – Management evaluates store sales trends in assessing the operational performance of the Company’s store expansion strategies. Important store sales trends include average net sales per store and average net sales per square foot. Average net sales per store (in thousands) for fiscal 2003, 2002 and 2001 were $1,229, $1,102 and $1,031, respectively. Average net sales per square foot for the same years were $363, $330 and $321, respectively.

Cash flow and liquidity (working capital) – Management evaluates cash flow from operations, liquidity and working capital to determine the Company’s short-term operational financing needs. Management expects cash flows from operations will be sufficient to finance operations without borrowing under the Company’s credit facility during the remainder of fiscal 2004.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The accounting policies that the

13

Company believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating reported financial results include the following:

Revenue Recognition - Sales are recognized upon purchase by customers at the Company’s retail store locations or upon shipment for orders placed through the Company’s website. The Company accrues for estimated sales returns by customers based on historical sales return results. Actual return rates have historically been within management’s expectations and the reserves established. However, in the event that the actual rate of sales returns by customers increased significantly, the Company’s operational results could be adversely affected. The Company records the sale of gift cards as a current liability and recognizes a sale when a customer redeems a gift card. The amount of the gift card liability is determined taking into account the Company’s estimate of the portion of gift cards that will not be redeemed or recovered.

Inventory Valuation - Merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Cost is determined using the retail inventory method. At any one time, inventories include items that have been marked down to management’s best estimate of their fair market value. Management bases the decision to mark down merchandise primarily upon its current rate of sale and the age of the item, among other factors. To the extent that management’s estimates differ from actual results, additional markdowns may have to be recorded, which could reduce the Company’s gross margins and operating results.

Long-Lived Assets - In the normal course of business, the Company acquires tangible and intangible assets. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its long-lived assets (including property, plant and equipment, and other intangible assets) whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. Impairment is assessed when the undiscounted expected future cash flows derived from an asset or asset group are less than its carrying amount. Impairments are recognized in operating earnings. The Company uses its best judgment based on the most current facts and circumstances surrounding its business when applying these impairment rules to determine the timing of the impairment test, the undiscounted cash flows used to assess impairments, and the fair value of a potentially impaired asset. Changes in assumptions used could have a significant impact on the Company’s assessment of recoverability. Numerous factors, including changes in the Company’s business, industry segment, and the global economy, could significantly impact management’s decision to retain, dispose of, or idle certain of its long-lived assets.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill at least annually based on a two-step impairment test. The first step compares the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds fair value, then the second step of the impairment test is performed to measure the amount of any impairment loss. Fair value is determined based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at a rate that approximates the Company’s cost of capital. Such estimates are subject to change and the Company may be required to recognize impairment losses in the future.

Insurance Reserves – The Company is responsible for workers’ compensation insurance claims up to a specified aggregate stop loss amount. The Company maintains a reserve for estimated claims, both reported and incurred but not reported, based on historical claims experience and other estimated assumptions. Actual claims activity has historically been within management’s expectations and the reserves established. To the extent claims experience or management’s estimates change, additional charges may be recorded in the future up to the aggregate stop loss amount for each policy year.

Accrued Sublease Loss Charges - The Company remains liable under an operating lease covering a former store location. The Company has subleased 3,200 of a total 5,200 square feet of these premises. At July 31, 2004, the Company had $1.6 million recorded in accrued liabilities to account for the Company’s net remaining contractual lease obligations for this location, which includes estimated sublease assumptions for the remaining 2,000 square feet. The Company continues to update its sublease assumptions on a quarterly basis based on its review of current real estate market conditions and any on-going negotiations. To the extent management’s estimates relating to the Company’s ability to sublease these facilities at the assumed

14

rates or within the assumed timeframes changes or is incorrect, additional charges or reversals of previous charges may be recorded in the future. At July 31, 2004, the gross remaining obligations under the Company’s original lease, exclusive of any sublease income, were approximately $6.5 million. This amount is included in the contractual obligations table within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Consolidated Operations. See “Contractual Obligations” within “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Income Taxes - Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable for the current year. The combined federal and state income tax expense was calculated using estimated effective annual tax rates. A deferred income tax asset or liability is established for the expected future consequences of temporary differences in the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company considers future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning in assessing the value of its deferred tax assets. Evaluating the value of these assets is necessarily based on the Company’s judgment. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized, the Company would reduce the value of these assets to their expected realizable value through a valuation allowance, thereby decreasing net income. If the Company subsequently determined that the deferred tax assets, which had been written down, would be realized in the future, the value of the deferred tax assets would be increased, thereby increasing net income in the period when that determination was made.

Litigation - The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental to its business. Management believes that the outcome of current litigation will not have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or financial condition of the Company and, from time to time, may make provisions for potential litigation losses. Depending on the actual outcome of pending litigation, charges in excess of any provisions could be recorded in the future, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operating results (see Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth selected income statement data of the Company expressed as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated. The discussion that follows should be read in conjunction with this table:

The following table sets forth the Company’s number of stores and total square footage as of the dates indicated:

The second quarter (13 weeks) ended July 31, 2004 as compared to the second quarter (13 weeks) ended August 2, 2003

Net Sales

Net sales increased to $274.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 from $234.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2003, an increase of $40.4 million, or 17.2%. The components of this $40.4 million increase in net sales are as follows:

Of the 6.8% increase in comparable store net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2004, PacSun and PacSun Outlet comparable store net sales increased 7.2% and d.e.m.o. comparable store net sales increased 3.0%. The increase in comparable store net sales within PacSun and PacSun Outlet was primarily attributable to increases in comparable store net sales of footwear, accessories and young men’s apparel. The increase in comparable store net sales within d.e.m.o. was attributable to increases in comparable store net sales of juniors apparel and accessories merchandise. Retail prices of the Company’s merchandise remained relatively unchanged in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2003 and had no significant impact on the net sales increase for the second quarter of fiscal 2004.

Gross Margin

Gross margin, after buying, distribution and occupancy costs, increased to $94.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 from $79.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2003, an increase of $15.0 million, or 18.8%. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was 34.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 compared to 34.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2003. The components of this .5% increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales are as follows:

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $64.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 from $58.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2003, an increase of $5.9 million, or 10.1%. These expenses decreased to 23.3% as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 from 24.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2003. The components of this 1.5% net decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were as follows:

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 compared to $.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2003, an increase of $.2 million. This increase was primarily the result of higher average cash and short-term investment balances in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2003, primarily due to higher net income driven by the comparable store net sales increases in the first half of fiscal 2004.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $11.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 compared to $8.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2003. The effective income tax rate was 37.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 and 38.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2003. The lower effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2004 was primarily attributable to a lower weighted effective state income tax rate for the Company. The weighted effective state income tax rate for the Company will vary depending on a number of factors, such as differing income tax rates and net sales in the respective states.

The first half (26 weeks) ended July 31, 2004 as compared to the first half (26 weeks) ended August 2, 2003

Net Sales

Net sales increased to $519.9 million for the first half of fiscal 2004 from $432.7 million for the first half of fiscal 2003, an increase of $87.2 million, or 20.2%. The components of this $87.2 million increase in net sales are as follows:

Of the 9.5% increase in comparable store net sales in the first half of fiscal 2004, PacSun and PacSun Outlet comparable store net sales increased 10.1% and d.e.m.o. comparable store net sales increased 4.6%. The increase in comparable store net sales within PacSun and PacSun Outlet was primarily attributable to increases in comparable store net sales of footwear, accessories and young men’s apparel. The increase in comparable store net sales within d.e.m.o. was attributable to increases in comparable store net sales of juniors apparel and accessories merchandise. Retail prices of the Company’s merchandise remained

17

relatively unchanged in the first half of fiscal 2004 compared to the first half of fiscal 2003 and had no significant impact on the net sales increase for the first half of fiscal 2004.

Gross Margin

Gross margin, after buying, distribution and occupancy costs, increased to $178.4 million for the first half of fiscal 2004 from $143.7 million for the first half of fiscal 2003, an increase of $34.7 million, or 24.1%. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was 34.3% for the first half of fiscal 2004 compared to 33.2% for the first half of fiscal 2003. The components of this 1.1% increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales are as follows:

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $124.0 million for the first half of fiscal 2004 from $109.1 million for the first half of fiscal 2003, an increase of $14.9 million, or 13.7%. These expenses decreased to 23.9% as a percentage of net sales in the first half of fiscal 2004 from 25.2% in the first half of fiscal 2003. The components of this 1.3% net decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were as follows:

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $.8 million in the first half of fiscal 2004 compared to $.1 million in the first half of fiscal 2003, an increase of $.7 million. This increase was primarily the result of higher average cash and short-term investment balances in the first half of fiscal 2004 as compared to the first half of fiscal 2003, primarily due to higher net income driven by the comparable store net sales increases in the first half of fiscal 2004.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $20.9 million for the first half of fiscal 2004 compared to $13.3 million for the first half of fiscal 2003. The effective income tax rate was 37.8% in the first half of fiscal 2004 and 38.4% in the first half of fiscal 2003. The lower effective income tax rate for the first half of fiscal 2004 was primarily attributable to a lower weighted effective state income tax rate for the Company. The weighted effective state income tax rate for the Company will vary depending on a number of factors, such as differing income tax rates and net sales in the respective states.

18

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has financed its operations primarily from internally generated cash flow, with occasional short-term and long-term borrowings and equity financing in past years. The Company’s primary capital requirements have been for the construction costs of newly opened, remodeled, expanded or relocated stores, net of landlord allowances, as well as for the financing of inventories. Management believes that the Company’s working capital, cash flows from operating activities and credit facility will be sufficient to meet the Company’s operating and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months.

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.3 million for the first half of fiscal 2004 compared to $22.4 million for the first half of fiscal 2003. The $15.1 million decrease in cash provided by operations in the first half of fiscal 2004 as compared to the first half of fiscal 2003 was attributable to the following:

The Company’s success is largely dependent upon its ability to gauge the fashion tastes of its customers and provide merchandise that satisfies customer demand. Any inability to provide appropriate merchandise in sufficient quantities in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, cash flows from operations and financial condition. Any economic downturn that affects the retail industry as a whole could also adversely affect the Company’s business, operating results, cash flows from operations and financial condition.

Working Capital

Working capital at July 31, 2004 was $205.9 million compared to $243.0 million at January 31, 2004, a decrease of $37.1 million. The components of this $37.1 million decrease in working capital were as follows:

19

Investing Cash Flows

Net cash used in investing activities in the first half of fiscal 2004 was $46.6 million compared to $16.3 million for the first half of fiscal 2003, an increase in cash used of $30.3 million. The components of the $46.6 million in cash used in investing activities in the first half of fiscal 2004 are as follows:

In the remainder of fiscal 2004, capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $23 million, of which approximately $20 million will be for opening new and relocated/expanded stores, and approximately $3 million will be used for other capital expenditures, including maintenance capital on existing stores and computer hardware and software.

Financing Cash Flows

Net cash used in financing activities in the first half of fiscal 2004 was $69.0 million compared to cash provided of $20.3 million for the first half of fiscal 2003, an increase in cash used of $89.3 million. The components of the $89.3 million increase in cash used in financing activities in the first half of fiscal 2004 as compared to the first half of fiscal 2003 were as follows:

Common Stock Repurchase and Retirement – Information regarding the Company’s common stock repurchase plan is contained in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, which note is incorporated herein by this reference.

Credit Facility

The Company has a credit facility with a bank, which expires April 1, 2007. The credit facility provides for a $45.0 million line of credit (the “Credit Line”) through March 31, 2005 to be used for cash advances, commercial letters of credit and shipside bonds. The Credit Line increases to $50.0 million from April 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006, and $60.0 million from April 1, 2006 through expiration on April 1, 2007. Interest on the Credit Line is payable monthly at the bank’s prime rate (4.25% at July 31, 2004) or at optional interest rates that are primarily dependent upon the London Inter-bank Offered Rates for the time period chosen. The Company did not borrow under the credit facility at any time during the first half of fiscal 2004 or during fiscal 2003. The Company had $18.9 million outstanding in letters of credit at July 31, 2004. The credit facility subjects the Company to various restrictive covenants, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, and prohibits payment of cash dividends on common stock. At July 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with all of the credit facility covenants.

A significant decrease in the Company’s operating results could adversely affect the Company’s ability to maintain the required financial ratios under the Company’s credit facility. Required financial ratios include total liabilities to tangible net worth, limitations on capital expenditures and achievement of certain rolling four-quarter EBITDA requirements. If these financial ratios are not maintained, the bank will have the option to require immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the credit facility, if any. The most likely result would be that the Company would renegotiate certain terms of the credit agreement, obtain a waiver from the bank, or obtain a new credit agreement with another bank, which may contain different terms.

Contractual Obligations

The Company has minimum annual rental commitments under existing store operating leases, capital leases for computer equipment, and other long-term debt obligations for multi-year computer maintenance contracts. In addition, at any time, the Company is contingently liable for open letters of credit with foreign suppliers of merchandise. At July 31, 2004, the Company’s future financial commitments under these arrangements were as follows:

Contractual Obligations

The Company reviews the operating performance of its stores on an ongoing basis to determine which stores, if any, to expand, relocate or close. Most leases contain cancellation or kick-out clauses in the Company’s favor that relieve the Company of any future obligation under a lease if certain sales levels are not achieved by a specified date. The Company closed four stores in fiscal 2003 and anticipates closing approximately six stores in fiscal 2004.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Information regarding new accounting pronouncements is contained in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended July 31, 2004, which note is incorporated herein by this reference.

21

Inflation

The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material effect on the results of operations in the recent past. There can be no assurance that the Company’s business will not be affected by inflation in the future.

Seasonality and Quarterly Results

The Company’s business is seasonal by nature, with the Christmas and back-to-school periods historically accounting for the largest percentage of annual net sales. The Company’s first quarter historically accounts for the smallest percentage of annual net sales. In fiscal 2003, excluding sales generated by new and relocated/expanded stores, the Christmas and back-to-school periods together accounted for approximately 36% of the Company’s annual net sales and a higher percentage of the Company’s operating income. In fiscal 2003, excluding net sales generated by new and relocated/expanded stores, approximately 43% of the Company’s annual net sales occurred in the first half of the fiscal year and approximately 57% in the second half. The Company’s quarterly results of operations may also fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including the timing of store openings; the amount of revenue contributed by new stores; the timing and level of markdowns; the timing of store closings, expansions and relocations; competitive factors; and general economic conditions.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors

This report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and the Company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. The Company is hereby providing cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements of the Company herein. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as “will result,” “expects to,” “will continue,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “intends,” “estimated,” “projects” and “outlook”) are not historical facts and may be forward-looking and, accordingly, such statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this report, including forecasts of fiscal 2004 planned new store openings and capital expenditures, are based on information available to the Company as of the date hereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after such statements are made. Such uncertainties include, among others, the following factors:

Merchandising/Fashion Sensitivity. The Company’s success is largely dependent upon its ability to gauge the fashion tastes of its customers and to provide merchandise that satisfies customer demand in a timely manner. The Company’s failure to anticipate, identify or react appropriately in a timely manner to changes in fashion trends could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s same store sales results, operating margins, financial condition and results of operations. Misjudgments or unanticipated fashion changes could also have a material adverse effect on the Company’s image with its customers.

Proprietary Brand Merchandise. Sales from proprietary brand merchandise accounted for approximately 32% of net sales in fiscal 2003. The Company may increase the percentage of net sales in proprietary brand merchandise in the future, although there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve increases in proprietary brand merchandise sales as a percentage of net sales. Because the Company’s proprietary brand merchandise generally carries higher merchandise margins than its other merchandise, the Company’s failure to anticipate, identify and react in a timely manner to fashion trends with its proprietary brand merchandise, particularly if the percentage of net sales derived from proprietary brand merchandise increases, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s same store sales results, operating margins, financial condition and results of operations.

22

Fluctuations in Comparable Store Net Sales Results. The Company’s comparable store net sales results have fluctuated significantly in the past on a monthly, quarterly, and annual basis, and are expected to continue to fluctuate in the future. A variety of factors affect the Company’s comparable store net sales results, including changes in fashion trends, changes in the Company’s merchandise mix, calendar shifts of holiday periods, actions by competitors, weather conditions and general economic conditions. The Company’s comparable store net sales results for any particular fiscal month, fiscal quarter or fiscal year in the future may decrease. As a result of these or other factors, the Company’s future comparable store net sales results are likely to have a significant effect on the market price of the Company’s common stock.

Expansion and Management of Growth. PacSun’s continued growth depends to a significant degree on its ability to open and operate stores on a profitable basis and on management’s ability to manage the Company’s planned expansion. The Company has previously announced plans to operate 1,400 stores by the end of 2007, of which approximately 900 will be PacSun stores, approximately 100 will be PacSun Outlet stores, and approximately 400 will be d.e.m.o. stores. At July 31, 2004, the Company operated 947 stores, of which 717 were PacSun stores, 82 were PacSun Outlet stores, and 148 were d.e.m.o. stores. The Company’s planned expansion is dependent upon a number of factors, including the ability of the Company to locate and obtain favorable store sites, negotiate acceptable lease terms, obtain adequate supplies of merchandise and hire and train qualified management level and other employees. Factors beyond the Company’s control may also affect the Company’s ability to expand, including general economic and business conditions affecting consumer spending. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve its planned expansion, that such expansion will be profitable, or that the Company will be able to manage its growth effectively. Any failure to manage growth could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Reliance on Key Personnel. The continued success of the Company is dependent to a significant degree upon the services of its key personnel, particularly its executive officers. The loss of the services of any member of senior management could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s success in the future will also be dependent upon the Company’s ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. The Company’s inability to attract and retain qualified personnel in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on Single Distribution Facility. The Company’s distribution functions for all of its stores and for internet sales are handled from a single facility in Anaheim, California. Any significant interruption in the operation of the distribution facility due to natural disasters, accidents, system failures or other unforeseen causes would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company’s corporate office and distribution center will be adequate to support the Company’s future growth.

Internet Sales. The Company’s internet operations are subject to numerous risks that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operational results, including unanticipated operating problems, reliance on third party computer hardware and software providers, system failures and the need to invest in additional computer systems. Specific risks include: (i) diversion of sales from PacSun stores; (ii) rapid technological change; (iii) liability for online content; and (iv) risks related to the failure of the computer systems that operate the website and its related support systems, including computer viruses, telecommunication failures and electronic break-ins and similar disruptions. In addition, internet operations involve risks which are beyond the Company’s control that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operational results, including: (i) price competition involving the items the Company intends to sell; (ii) the entry of the Company’s vendors into the internet business, in direct competition with the Company; (iii) the level of merchandise returns experienced by the Company; (iv) governmental regulation; (v) online security breaches; (vi) credit card fraud; and (vii) competition and general economic conditions specific to the internet, online commerce and the apparel industry.

Economic Impact of Terrorist Attacks or War/Threat of War. The majority of the Company’s stores are located in regional shopping malls. Any threat of terrorist attacks or actual terrorist events, particularly in public areas, could lead to lower customer traffic in regional shopping malls. In addition, local

23

authorities or mall management could close regional shopping malls in response to any immediate security concern. Mall closures, as well as lower customer traffic due to security concerns, could result in decreased sales. Additionally, war or the threat of war could significantly diminish consumer spending, resulting in decreased sales for the Company. Decreased sales would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Reliance on Foreign Sources of Production. The Company purchases merchandise directly in foreign markets for its proprietary brands. In addition, the Company purchases merchandise from domestic vendors, some of which is manufactured overseas. The Company does not have any long-term merchandise supply contracts and its imports are subject to existing or potential duties, tariffs and quotas. The Company faces competition from other companies for production facilities and import quota capacity. The Company also faces a variety of other risks generally associated with doing business in foreign markets and importing merchandise from abroad, such as: (i) political instability; (ii) enhanced security measures at United States ports, which could delay delivery of imports; (iii) imposition of new legislation relating to import quotas that may limit the quantity of goods which may be imported into the United States from countries in a region that the Company does business; (iv) imposition of duties, taxes, and other charges on imports; (v) delayed receipt or non-delivery of goods due to the failure of foreign-source suppliers to comply with applicable import regulations; (vi) organized labor strikes or slowdowns at United States ports; and (vii) local business practice and political issues, including issues relating to compliance with domestic or international labor standards which may result in adverse publicity. New initiatives may be proposed that may have an impact on the trading status of certain countries and may include retaliatory duties or other trade sanctions that, if enacted, would increase the cost of products purchased from suppliers in countries that the Company does business with. The inability of the Company to rely on its foreign sources of production due to any of the factors listed above could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Credit Facility Financial Covenants. A significant decrease in the Company’s operating results could adversely affect the Company’s ability to maintain required financial ratios under the Company’s credit facility. Required financial ratios include a rolling four-quarter EBITDA requirement, total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio, and limitations on capital expenditures. If these financial ratios are not maintained, the bank will have the option to require immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the credit facility, if any. The most likely result would be that the Company would renegotiate certain terms of the credit agreement, obtain a waiver from the bank, or obtain a new credit agreement with another bank, which may contain different terms.

Expensing of Stock Options. The FASB currently expects to issue a final standard regarding equity-based compensation in the fourth quarter of 2004. The FASB’s existing exposure draft proposes that all publicly traded companies begin recording compensation expense related to all unvested and newly granted stock options prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. Currently, the Company includes such expenses on a pro forma basis in the notes to the Company’s quarterly and annual financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and does not include compensation expense related to stock options in the Company’s reported earnings in the financial statements. If accounting standards are changed to require the Company to expense stock options, the Company’s reported earnings would be lower under the new standard in the fiscal year beginning January 30, 2005 and its stock price could decline.

Litigation. The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental to its business. Management believes that the outcome of current litigation will not have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or financial condition of the Company. However, management’s assessment of the Company’s current litigation could change in light of the discovery of facts with respect to legal actions pending against the Company not presently known to the Company or determinations by judges, juries or other finders of fact which do not accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation.

Volatility of Stock Price. The market price of the Company’s common stock has fluctuated substantially in the past and there can be no assurance that the market price of the common stock will not continue to

24

fluctuate significantly. Future announcements or management discussions concerning the Company or its competitors, net sales and profitability results, quarterly variations in operating results or comparable store net sales, changes in earnings estimates by analysts or changes in accounting policies, among other factors, could cause the market price of the common stock to fluctuate substantially. In addition, stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume volatility in recent years. This volatility has had a substantial effect on the market prices of securities of many smaller public companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies.

*************

The Company cautions that the risk factors described above could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements of the Company made by or on behalf of the Company. Further, management cannot assess the impact of each such factor on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is susceptible to market value fluctuations with regard to its short-term investments. However, due to the relatively short maturity period of those investments and the Company’s intention to hold those investments until maturity, the risk of material market value fluctuations is not expected to be significant.

To the extent the Company borrows under its credit facility, the Company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates. At July 31, 2004, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Company’s credit facility and the Company did not borrow under the credit facility at any time during the first half of fiscal 2004. Based on the interest rate of 4.25% on the Company’s credit facility, if interest rates on the credit facility were to increase by 10%, and to the extent borrowings were outstanding, for every $1,000,000 outstanding on the Company’s credit facility, net income would be reduced by approximately $3,000 per year. For a discussion of the Company’s accounting policies for financial instruments and further disclosures relating to financial instruments, see “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Business” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2004. The Company is not a party with respect to derivative financial instruments.

ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (collectively, the “certifying officers”) evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports filed with the Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Commission’s rules and forms, and that the information is communicated to the certifying officers on a timely basis.

The certifying officers concluded, based on their evaluation, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the Company as of the end of the period covered by this report, taking into consideration the size and nature of the Company’s business and operations.

No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
