HIBBETT SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  Basis of Presentation & Accounting Policies
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hibbett Sporting Goods, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2002. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
 
The Company has experienced and expects to continue to experience seasonal fluctuations in its net sales and operating income. Therefore, the results of the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year.
 
Interest
 
Interest expense for the thirteen weeks ended November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001 was $40,572 and $137,892, respectively, shown net of interest income of $19,035 and $923, respectively. Interest expense for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001 was $192,677 and $485,132, respectively, shown net of interest income of $20,797 and $1,391, respectively.
 
Advertising
 
Hibbett participates in various advertising and marketing cooperative programs with its vendors, who, under these programs, reimburse Hibbett for certain costs incurred. A receivable for cooperative advertising to be reimbursed is recorded as a decrease to expense as the reimbursements are earned. Hibbett’s gross advertising costs for the thirteen weeks ended November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001 were $504,535 and $491,692, respectively. The Company’s gross advertising costs for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001 were $1,983,636 and $1,785,926, respectively.
 
Reportable Segments
 
Hibbett is an operator of full-line sporting good stores in small to mid-sized markets predominately in the southeastern United States. Given the economic characteristics of the store formats, the similar nature of the products sold, the type of customers and methods of distribution, the operations of Hibbett constitute only one reportable segment.
 
Customers
 
No customer accounted for more than 5% of the Company’s sales during the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2002 or November 3, 2001.
 
Store Closing Costs
 
Hibbett considers individual store closings to be a normal part of operations and expenses all related costs at the time of closing.

Revenue Recognition
 
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, Hibbett changed its layaway policy from recognizing merchandise revenues at the time of sale to recognizing merchandise revenues at the time the customer takes possession of the merchandise. All merchandise sales occur on-site in the Company’s retail stores, and the customers have the option of paying the full purchase price of the merchandise upon sale or paying a down payment and placing the merchandise on lay away. The customer may make further payments in installments, but the entire purchase price for merchandise placed on lay away must be received by Hibbett within 30 days. The customer takes possession of merchandise placed on lay away upon full payment.
 
Hibbett records the down payment and any installments as deferred revenue until the customer pays the entire purchase price for the merchandise and takes possession of such merchandise, at which time Hibbett recognizes revenue and eliminates the applicable deferred revenue balance. Previously, Hibbett recorded the purchase price for merchandise placed on lay away as revenue, recorded the initial down payment as cash and recorded an account receivable for the amount the customer still owed for the purchase price of the merchandise. Because all merchandise placed on lay away must be paid in full and delivered to the customer within 30 days of the sale, the change in accounting policy with respect to recognizing revenue at the time the customer takes possession of the merchandise only defers the recognition of revenue for merchandise that is placed on lay away within 30 days of the end of a fiscal quarter which is not paid in full and delivered prior to the end of such fiscal quarter. This change in accounting policy has had an immaterial impact on a quarterly basis on Hibbett’s revenues, gross profit, net income and earnings per share.
 
The cost of coupon sales incentives are recognized at the time the related revenue is recognized by Hibbett. Proceeds received from the issuance of gift certificates are initially recorded as deferred revenue, and such proceeds are subsequently recognized as revenue at the time the customer redeems such gift certificates and takes possession of the merchandise.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain prior year numbers have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
 
2.  Properties
 
Hibbett currently leases all of its existing 356 store locations and expects that its policy of leasing rather than owning will continue as the Company continues to expand. The Company’s leases typically provide for terms of five to seven years with options on the part of Hibbett to extend. Most leases also contain a three-year early termination option if projected sales levels are not met. Hibbett believes that this lease strategy enhances its flexibility to pursue various expansion opportunities resulting from changing market conditions and to periodically re-evaluate store locations. The Company’s ability to open new stores is contingent upon locating satisfactory sites, negotiating favorable leases and recruiting and training additional qualified management personnel.
 
As current leases expire, Hibbett believes that it will be able either to obtain lease renewals for present store locations or to obtain leases for equivalent or better locations in the same general area. For the most part, the Company has not experienced any significant difficulty in either renewing leases for existing locations or securing leases for suitable locations for new stores. However, in the second quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company did experience a temporary slow down in available space, which moved some stores previously planned for opening in fiscal 2003 to fiscal 2004. Based on the Company’s belief that it maintains good relations with its landlords, that most of Hibbett’s leases are at market rents and that generally it has been able to secure leases for suitable locations, the Company believes that its lease strategy will not be detrimental to its business, financial condition, or results of operations.
 
The Company’s offices and its distribution center are leased under an operating lease expiring in 2014. Hibbett Sporting Goods, Inc. owns its Team division’s warehousing and distribution center located in Birmingham, Alabama.
 
Store Locations
 
We operate 356 stores in 20 contiguous states. Of these stores, 131 are loca
