TRANS WORLD ENTERTAINMENT ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

          Albany, NY, November 21, 2013 — Trans World Entertainment Corporation (Nasdaq: TWMC) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended November 2, 2013. For the third quarter of 2013, the Company reported a net loss of $3.3 million, or a loss of $0.10 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million, or a loss of $0.07 per share, for the same period last year.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased 8.2% for the quarter to $32.5 million compared to $35.4 million for the comparable period last year.
