Commenting on the second quarter results, Scott Livengood, Chairman, President and CEO of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, said: “We are very pleased with our second quarter performance. It is gratifying that these excellent results were geographically broad based and across all sales channels. Our national expansion is also going extremely well, both in terms of store openings and the strong sales being achieved in these new markets.”

During the quarter, six new Krispy Kreme stores (including one new commissary) were opened in Las Vegas, NV; Owings Mills, MD; Gardena, CA; Roseville, MI; Chicago, IL; and Nashville, TN bringing the total number of stores at July 30, 2000 to 154. Since the end of the quarter, Krispy Kreme has opened an additional franchise store in Houston, TX. The company increased its projected store openings for the current fiscal year from 22 to 28 new stores and expects to open 32 new stores in fiscal 2002.

As a result of continuing strong sales momentum and the raised estimate of new store openings, the company increased earnings per share expectations to $1.00 for the current fiscal year.

The 63-year-old North Carolina-based company is a leading branded specialty retailer of premium quality doughnuts, including the company’s signature Hot Original Glazed. Krispy Kreme currently operates 154 stores in 27 states.
