Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

General - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the records of Shoe Pavilion, Inc. (the “Company”) without audit, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods presented. The balance sheet as of January 1, 2005 presented herein has been derived from the audited financial statements of the Company included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 1, 2005.

The significant accounting policies followed by the Company are described in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 1, 2005. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted for purposes of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, for the year ended January 1, 2005.

The results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Comprehensive Income and net income are the same.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. Management evaluates the carrying value of assets associated with stores which have been open at least 14 consecutive months. The Company records an impairment charge to write down the assets to their estimated fair value if the carrying values of such assets exceed their related expected future cash flows. The impairment charge is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. Management’s estimates and assumptions used in the projections are subject to a high degree of judgment and if actual results differ, additional losses may be recorded. During the thirteen weeks ended April 3, 2004 the Company recorded an impairment charge of $57,000 to write down assets in one store to its estimated fair value. No impairment charges were recorded during the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005.

Net Income Per Share – Basic income per share is computed as net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from the exercise of outstanding stock options and is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options. The following table summarizes the incremental shares from these potentially dilutive securities, calculated using the treasury stock method.

Excluded from the above computations of diluted net income per share are options to purchase 89,989 and 245,449 shares of common stock as of April 2, 2005 and April 3, 2004, respectively, as these shares were anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and its related interpretations. As the Company issues its options at fair value, no compensation expense has been recognized in the financial statements for stock option arrangements.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”.

2. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements based on alternative fair value models. The share-based compensation cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The Company currently discloses pro forma compensation expense quarterly and annually. Upon adoption, the pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 will no longer be an alternative to financial statement recognition. The provisions of SFAS No. 123R are effective as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 31, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the effect that the adoption of SFAS No. 123R will have on its financial position and results of operations.

3. Financing Agreements

In April 2003, the Company entered into a credit facility agreement with Wells Fargo Retail Finance, LLC. The facility expires on April 18, 2006 and provides financing for up to $20.0 million, including a $5.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the facility are based upon a percentage of eligible inventory less certain reserves. Borrowings are secured by inventory, equipment, general intangibles and other rights to payments. The credit facility prohibits the payment of cash dividends and contains various restrictive covenants

including a limitation on the amount of capital expenditures and the number of stores the Company may open and close during any fiscal year.

Interest on borrowings is at prime plus up to .25% or Libor plus 1.75% to 2.25%, depending on the amount the Company has available for advances under the line of credit. The average interest rate on outstanding borrowings at April 2, 2005 was 4.5%. As of April 2, 2005 approximately $11.0 million was available for advances under the facility.

Although the credit facility expires in April 2006 and the Company has the intent and ability to maintain this debt outstanding for more than one year, the Company has classified its borrowings under the facility as a current liability in accordance with the provisions set forth in Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 95-22 “Balance Sheet Classifications, Borrowings Outstanding Under Revolving Credit Agreements that include both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement.”

Overview

General—Shoe Pavilion, Inc., a Delaware corporation, operates as a single business segment of off-price shoe stores located in California, Washington, Oregon and Arizona under the name Shoe Pavilion. The Company operated 85 stores as of April 2, 2005 and April 3, 2004.

Results of Operations

Net sales. The Company’s net sales for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 increased 19.0% to $23.3 million from $19.6 million for the same period in 2004. The increase was primarily due to the 10.7% increase in comparable store net sales and sales generated in six new stores opened during the period of June 2004 through March 2005, net of seven stores closed from June 2004 through March 2005.

Gross Profit. Cost of sales includes landed merchandise and occupancy costs. For the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 gross profit increased 21.0% to $8.0 million from $6.6 million for the same period last year. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 34.4% for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 from 33.8% for the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, the merchandising gross profit decreased 1.0% while occupancy costs decreased 1.6%. The decrease in merchandising gross profit as a percentage of net sales was in part due to the increase in the average cost per unit in women’s footwear partially offset by a higher average selling price per unit. The decrease in occupancy costs as a percentage of net sales was due in part to the leveraging of occupancy costs as a result of the 10.7% increase in comparable store net sales during the quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. For the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.2 million or 21.2% to $7.2 million from $6.0 million for the same period last year. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were 31.0% for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 compared to 30.5% for the same period last year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales is primarily due to the increase in advertising. Advertising as a percentage of net sales for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 was 5.4% compared to 4.0% for the same period last year. This increase in advertising is in part due to the timing of advertising for the Easter holiday season which was in the first quarter of 2005 while it was in the second quarter last year.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 increased to $111,000 from $72,000 compared to the same period last year. This increase in interest expense is primarily due to a higher average interest

rate during the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 compared to the same period last year and increased borrowings under the Company’s credit facility, in part to fund the Company’s increased inventory levels.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, the Company has funded its cash requirements primarily through cash flows from operations and borrowings under its credit facility. During the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 and April 3, 2004, the Company satisfied its cash requirements through cash flows generated from operations. Net cash provided by operating activities was $515,000 for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 compared to $1.5 million for the same period last year. Cash provided from operating activities during the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 and April 3, 2004 was primarily generated from an increase in accounts payable in part related to the increase in inventory.

Capital expenditures for the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 were $224,000. These expenditures primarily related to leasehold improvements and fixtures and equipment for one new store the Company opened during the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 and construction in progress for three stores to be opened in the second quarter. The Company estimates that its total capital requirements to open a typical new store average $574,000, consisting of approximately $510,000 for inventory and $64,000 for fixtures and equipment, excluding leasehold improvements which are frequently paid for by landlord allowances. Costs vary from store to store depending on, among other things, the location, size, property condition and tenant improvement package offered by the landlord. The Company expects to open between eight to ten stores during the remainder of 2005. The number of stores ultimately opened is, in part, dependent upon the availability of desirable locations and management’s ability to negotiate acceptable lease terms.

During the thirteen weeks ended April 2, 2005 and April 3, 2004 financing activities used cash of $195,000 and $1.3 million which primarily relates to the pay down on the Company’s credit facility.

In April 2003, the Company entered into a credit facility agreement with Wells Fargo Retail Finance, LLC. The facility expires on April 18, 2006 and provides financing for up to $20.0 million, including a $5.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the facility are based upon a percentage of eligible inventory less certain reserves. Borrowings are secured by inventory, equipment, general intangibles and other rights to payments. The credit facility prohibits the payment of cash dividends and contains various restrictive covenants including a limitation on the amount of capital expenditures and the number of stores the Company may open and close during any fiscal year.

Interest on borrowings is at prime plus up to .25% or Libor plus 1.75% to 2.25%, depending on the amount the Company has available for advances under the line of credit. The average interest rate on outstanding borrowings at April 2, 2005 was 4.5%. As of April 2, 2005 approximately $11.0 million was available for advances under the facility.

Although the credit facility expires in April 2006 and the Company has the intent and ability to maintain this debt outstanding for more than one year, the Company has classified its borrowings under the facility as a current liability in accordance with the provisions set forth in Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 95-22 “Balance Sheet Classifications, Borrowings Outstanding Under Revolving Credit Agreements that include both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement.”

The Company expects that anticipated cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the Company’s credit facility will satisfy its cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

There have been no material changes from the information reported in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended January 1, 2005.
