Note 1—General

PETCO Animal Supplies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “PETCO”), is a national specialty retailer of premium pet food, supplies and services with 741 stores in 47 states and the District of Columbia as of April 30, 2005. The Company’s pet-related products include food, supplies, grooming products, toys, novelty items, vitamins, small pets such as fish, birds and other small animals (excluding cats and dogs), and veterinary supplies.

In the opinion of management of PETCO, the unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of April 30, 2005 and for the thirteen-week periods ended May 1, 2004 and April 30, 2005. The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Because of the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended May 1, 2004 and April 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31, resulting in years of either 52 or 53 weeks. All references to a fiscal year refer to the fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to January 31 of the following year. For example, references to fiscal 2005 refer to the fiscal year beginning on January 30, 2005 and ending on January 28, 2006. All of the Company’s stores are aggregated into one reportable segment given the similarities in economic characteristics among the operations represented by the stores and the common nature of the products, customers and methods of distribution. For further information, see the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes for fiscal 2004 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (File No. 000-23574) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 28, 2005.

Note 2—Future Accounting Requirements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123(R) revises SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and requires companies to expense the fair value of employee stock options and other forms of employee stock-based compensation. SFAS No. 123 allowed companies to disclose the pro forma effects of expensing the fair value of employee stock-based compensation in the footnotes to the financial statements. SFAS No. 123(R) applies to all stock-based compensation transactions with employees in which a company acquires services by issuing its stock or other equity instruments, except through arrangements resulting from employee stock ownership plans, or by incurring liabilities that are based on the company’s stock price. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB No. 107”). SAB No. 107 provides the SEC staff’s position regarding the application of SFAS No 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations, and also provides the staff’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. In April 2005, the SEC approved an amendment to Rule 4-01(a) of Regulation S-X to amend the date for compliance with SFAS No. 123(R). In accordance with this amendment, the accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) are effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The Company is evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 123(R) and SAB No. 107 and expects the adoption of these pronouncements to have a significant impact on its consolidated results of operations.

Note 3—Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its stock option plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board, or APB, Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, and recognizes compensation expense if the market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation costs are amortized to expense over the vesting period of the option. Had compensation costs for the Company’s stock option plans been determined based on the fair value of the awards at the grant date, consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company’s net earnings and net earnings per share would have been as presented below:

The estimated weighted-average fair value per share of the options granted during the thirteen-week periods ended May 1, 2004 and April 30, 2005 was an estimated $12.94 and $12.87, respectively. The weighted-average fair value per share was calculated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Note 4—Net Earnings Per Share

Basic net earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per share includes the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of potentially issuable common stock. Net earnings and the weighted average number of common shares used to compute basic and diluted net earnings per share are presented below:

Options to purchase common shares that were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted net earnings per share because of their anti-dilutive impact were 1,345 and 6 for the thirteen-week periods ended May 1, 2004 and April 30, 2005, respectively.

Note 5—Senior Credit Facility

The Company has a senior credit facility consisting of a $200 million secured revolving credit facility (the “revolving credit facility”). The revolving credit facility expires on January 31, 2010, although the Company has the option to extend the expiration for an additional one-year period, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company also has the option to increase the amount of available credit under the revolving credit facility, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, by an additional $125 million though April 30, 2007. After April 30, 2007, the amount by which available borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be increased is reduced to $50 million.

Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are secured by substantially all of the personal property assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and bear interest at the Company’s option, at the agent bank’s base rate plus a margin of up to 0.75%, or LIBOR plus a margin of up to 1.875%, in each case based on the Company’s leverage ratio at the time. In addition, the Company has pledged all of the capital stock of its domestic subsidiaries to secure the Company’s obligations under the revolving credit facility. The Company incurs a fee of up to 2.1% on letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility and a fee of up to 0.3% on the unused commitment under the revolving credit facility, which is reduced for any letters of credit. The credit agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants related to, among other things, indebtedness, capital expenditures, fixed charges coverage and total leverage. The revolving credit facility specifies a number of events of default (some of which are subject to applicable cure periods), including, among others, the failure to make payments when due, defaults under other agreements or instruments of indebtedness and noncompliance with covenants. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders may terminate the facility and declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

At April 30, 2005, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under the revolving credit facility, and the outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility was $95.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are due in full on January 31, 2010. The interest rate at April 30, 2005 on the borrowings under the revolving credit facility was 4.4%. At April 30, 2005, the Company had outstanding $30.4 million in letters of credit used for general business purposes, which reduced the availability under the revolving credit facility to $74.6 million at April 30, 2005.

Note 6—Senior Subordinated Notes

The senior subordinated notes mature on November 1, 2011, and interest accrues at a rate of 10.75% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears. The Company may redeem the senior subordinated notes at its option at any time after November 1, 2006, in whole or in part, based upon an agreed upon schedule of redemption prices. The indenture governing the senior subordinated notes specifies a number of events of default (many of which are subject to applicable cure periods), including, among others, the failure to make payments when due, defaults under other agreements or instruments of indebtedness and noncompliance with covenants. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the holders of the notes may declare all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company repurchased $14.7 million in aggregate principal amount of its senior subordinated notes and recorded debt retirement costs totaling $2.4 million, consisting primarily of a prepayment premium. As of April 30, 2005, there was $89.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the senior subordinated notes outstanding.

Note 7—Contingencies

On April 18, 2005, the Company and two of its officers, James M. Myers, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Rodney Carter, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, were named as defendants in a purported class action filed in United States District Court for the Southern District of California alleging violations of

Table of Contents

Sections 10 and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The named plaintiff, Plumbers and Pipefitters Local 51 Pension Fund, purports to represent a class of purchasers of the Company’s stock during the period November 18, 2004 to April 14, 2005, and alleges that during such period the defendants misrepresented the Company’s financial position and that the plaintiff and the purported class of purchasers during that period were damaged by paying artificially and falsely inflated prices for the Company’s stock. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages. On April 26, 2005, another class action was filed in United States District Court for the Southern District of California with substantially similar allegations to those described above. The April 26 suit named Brian K. Devine, the Company’s Chairman, as an additional defendant. The named plaintiffs in the April 26 suit, Richard and Loretta Hochreiter, purport to represent an identical class of investors as that identified in the April 18 lawsuit. On April 27, 2005, another class action was filed in United States District Court for the Southern District of California with substantially similar allegations to those described above, naming Roger Lieberman as its representative plaintiff. On May 5, 2005, an additional class action was filed in United States District Court for the Southern District of California with substantially similar allegations to those described above, naming Messrs. Myers, Carter and Devine as defendants. The May 5 complaint names Dikran Toroser as its representative plaintiff. The Company has tendered these matters to its insurance carriers, and does not believe the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations in any future period.

In addition, certain law firms have announced that they are seeking plaintiffs in order to file a lawsuit against the Company based on unasserted claims similar to those described above. Upon receipt of any formal complaint relating to such claims, the Company intends to tender these matters and any other similar matters to its insurance carriers, and does not believe the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations in any future period.

On April 22, 2005, Angela Carr, an alleged owner of the Company’s stock, derivatively sued all of the Company’s directors and its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, purportedly on behalf of the Company, alleging that such officers and directors engaged in breaches of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment and other violations of California law during the period November 18, 2004 to the present. The complaint, filed in Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego, seeks to recover on behalf of the Company alleged unspecified damages sustained by the Company as a result of such alleged actions, treble damages, disgorgement of profits from the sale of the Company’s securities and benefits and compensation obtained by the individual defendants, and extraordinary equitable and/or injunctive relief as permitted by law. Also on April 22, 2005, another shareholder derivative action was filed in Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego on behalf of Gwen Jordan against the same defendants and with substantially similar allegations to those described above. The Company has tendered these matters to its insurance carriers, and does not believe the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations in any future period.

The Company is involved in other routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of its business. While the results of such litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations in any future period.

Note 8—Supplemental Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Information
