FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS OR INFORMATION
This Form 10-Q Report contains forward-looking statements. We are including this
statement for the express purpose of providing Calloway's the protections of the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
with respect to all forward-looking statements. Several important factors, in
addition to the specific factors discussed in connection with such
forward-looking statements individually, could affect future results and could
cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the
forward-looking statements contained in this Report.
Our expected future results, products and service performance or other
non-historical facts are forward-looking and reflect our current perspective of
existing trends and information. These statements involve risks and
uncertainties that cannot be predicted or quantified and, consequently, actual
results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others,
the seasonality of our business, geographic concentration, the impact of weather
and other growing conditions, the ability to manage growth, the impact of
competition, the ability to obtain future financing, government regulations,
market risks associated with variable-rate debt, and other risks and
uncertainties defined from time to time in our Securities and Exchange
Commission filings.
Therefore, each reader of this report is cautioned to consider carefully these
factors as well as the specific factors discussed with each forward-looking
statement in this Report and disclosed in our filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission as such factors, in some cases, have affected, and in the
future (together with other factors) could affect, our ability to implement our
business strategy and may cause actual results to differ materially from those
contemplated by the statements expressed in this Report.

CALLOWAY'S NURSERY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In
management's opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position at March 31, 2001, and the results of
operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and
2000, and cash flows for the six-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000
have been made. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
Because of seasonal and other factors, the results of operations for the
three-month and six-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and cash flows for the
six-month period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of expected
results of operations and cash flows for the fiscal year ending September 30,
2001.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the
SEC rules and regulations referred to above. Accordingly, these financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and related notes for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000 included in the
Form 10-K covering such period.
2. RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts for 2000 have been reclassified to conform to the 2001
presentation.

OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION
In September 1999 we completed the Acquisition of Cornelius Nurseries, Inc. and
affiliated companies (the "Cornelius Acquisition"). The results of operations
for fiscal 2000 and fiscal 2001 include the Cornelius Acquisition, while the
results of operations for fiscal 1999 do not.

Long-term debt (including current portion) $ 10.6 $ 10.5 $ 3.2
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 COMPARED WITH QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2000
SALES declined 26%. Both the (i) Retail and (ii) Wholesale and Growing segments
saw sales decline. Same-store sales (sixteen Calloway's stores in Dallas-Fort
Worth and three Cornelius stores in Houston) declined 22%. The decline in Retail
sales was primarily attributable to reduced consumer demand in the Company's
market areas. The decline in Wholesale and Growing sales was partially related
to the decline in Retail sales; in addition, the Company is changing the
production and sales focus of its Turkey Creek Farms operation to produce a
higher proportion of items suitable for sale to specialty garden centers,
including the Company's own Calloway's and Cornelius Retail stores. Those items
are currently Work In Process, and will become Finished Goods over the course of
Fiscal 2001 and Fiscal 2002.
9
10
GROSS MARGIN was 46% for the fiscal 2000 quarter and 45% for the fiscal 2001
quarter. The reduction was due to lower gross margins in the Wholesale and
Growing segment.
OPERATING EXPENSES declined 16%, from approximately $4.2 million for the fiscal
2000 quarter to approximately $3.5 million for the fiscal 2001 quarter. The most
significant cost reductions occurred in the Wholesale and Growing segment, and
the expense reductions in that segment occurred in substantially all Operating
Expense categories.
ADVERTISING EXPENSES declined 19%, from $347,000 for the fiscal 2000 quarter to
$281,000 for the fiscal 2001 quarter. The timing of expenditures was adjusted to
allocate more to the later part of the spring season due to poor weather
conditions that had a negative impact on consumer demand during the earlier part
of the spring season.
OCCUPANCY EXPENSES declined 12% from $788,000 for the fiscal 2000 quarter to
$691,000 for the fiscal 2001 quarter. The reduction was primarily due to lower
estimated property taxes for fiscal 2001 than had been expected for the
comparable period in fiscal 2000.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSES increased 9% from $230,000 for the fiscal
2000 quarter to $251,000 for the fiscal 2001 quarter, primarily due to an
increase in Property and Equipment.
INTEREST EXPENSE rose 52%, from $238,000 for the fiscal 2000 quarter to $361,000
for the fiscal 2001 quarter as a result of increased seasonal borrowings under
the Company's revolving line of credit. The increased borrowings were necessary
because of the reduced Sales for the fiscal 2001 quarter compared to the fiscal
2000 quarter. All of those seasonal borrowings were repaid during April 2001.
INVENTORIES rose 29%, from $11.5 million at March 31, 2000 to $14.8 million at
March 31, 2001. Retail Inventories rose 22% and Wholesale and Growing
Inventories rose 32%. The increase in Retail Inventories was primarily
attributable to the acquisition of merchandise in advance of demand. The
increase in Wholesale and Growing Inventories was primarily attributable to a
proportional increase in the quantity of merchandise produced at the Turkey
Creek Farms operation that are suitable for sale to specialty garden centers,
including the Company's own Calloway's and Cornelius Retail stores. Such items
are expected to be more profitable to produce and sell than the items they
replaced. Those items are currently Work In Process, and will become Finished
Goods over the course of Fiscal 2001 and Fiscal 2002.
SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 COMPARED WITH SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH
31, 2000
SALES declined by 20%. Both the (i) Retail and (ii) Wholesale and Growing
segments saw sales decline. Same-store sales (sixteen Calloway's stores in
Dallas-Fort Worth and three Cornelius stores in Houston) declined 16%. The
decline in Retail sales was primarily attributable to reduced consumer demand in
the Company's market areas. The decline in Wholesale and Growing sales was
partially related to the decline in Retail sales; in addition, the Company is
changing the production and sales focus of its Turkey Creek Farms operation to
produce a higher proportion of items suitable for sale to specialty garden
centers, including the Company's own Calloway's and Cornelius Retail stores.
Those items are currently Work In Process, and will become Finished Goods over
the course of Fiscal 2001 and Fiscal 2002.

11
GROSS MARGIN was 46% for the six-month period in both fiscal 2001 and fiscal
2000.
OPERATING EXPENSES declined by 18%, from $8.9 million for the fiscal 2000
six-month period to approximately $7.3 million for the fiscal 2001 six-month
period. The most significant cost reductions occurred in the Wholesale and
Growing segment, and the expense reductions in that segment occurred in
substantially all Operating Expense categories.
ADVERTISING EXPENSES were substantially unchanged: $728,000 for the fiscal 2001
six-month period compared to $730,000 for the fiscal 2000 six-month period.
OCCUPANCY EXPENSES declined 6% from $1,560,000 for the fiscal 2000 six-month
period to $1,469,000 for the fiscal 2001 six-month period. The reduction was
primarily due to lower estimated property taxes for fiscal 2001 than had been
expected for the comparable period in fiscal 2000.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSES increased 11% from $439,000 for the
fiscal 2000 six-month period to $488,000 for the fiscal 2001 six-month period
primarily due to an increase in Property and Equipment.
INTEREST EXPENSE rose 33%, from $466,000 to $620,000, primarily as a result of
increased seasonal borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit. The
increased borrowings were necessary because of the reduced Sales for the fiscal
2001 six-month period compared to the fiscal 2000 six-month period. All of those
seasonal borrowings were repaid during April 2001.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES
The Company had Cash Used by Operating Activities of approximately $3.4 million
for the fiscal 2001 six-month period compared to Cash Provided by Operating
Activities of approximately $1.9 million for the fiscal 2000 six-month period.
The primary causes of the difference were: (i) a 20% decline in Sales for the
fiscal 2001 six-month period resulting in a revenue loss of approximately $5.0
million that was only partially offset by reduced Expenses, (ii) a seasonal
increase of approximately $3.0 million in Inventories for the fiscal 2001
six-month period compared to a seasonal increase of approximately $2.0 million
for the fiscal 2000 six-month period, (iii) payment during fiscal 2001 of
approximately $1.4 million in estimated Federal Income Tax that were accrued
during fiscal 2000.
CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES
The Company had approximately $0.4 million in Cash Used for Investing Activities
for the fiscal 2001 six-month period compared to approximately $1.4 million in
Cash Used for Investing Activities for the fiscal 2000 six-month period. Most of
the $1.4 million in capital expenditures for the fiscal 2000 six-month period
was for a new store that the Company built and opened in April 2000. There was
no new store construction during the fiscal 2001 six-month period.
11
12
CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
The Company had approximately $3.5 million in Cash Provided by Financing
Activities for the fiscal 2001 six-month period compared to Cash Provided by
Financing Activities of approximately $0.6 million for the fiscal 2000 six-month
period. Most of the increase resulted from seasonal borrowings under the
revolving line of credit. All of those seasonal borrowings were repaid during
April 2001.
During the fiscal 2001 six-month period the Company entered into two notes
payable totaling approximately $3.8 million. One of the two notes was for
approximately $2.6 million, and it refinanced approximately $2.5 million of a
separate real estate note payable, reducing the balance from approximately $4.5
million to approximately $2.0 million, extending the maturity date, and
providing a fixed interest rate instead of a variable interest rate. The second
note payable was for approximately $1.2 million, and it replaced a construction
loan of approximately $0.8 million, extending the maturity date and providing a
fixed interest rate instead of a variable interest rate.
We anticipate that cash flows from operations and our $5,000,000 revolving line
of credit arrangement will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Calloway's is exposed to certain market risks, including fluctuations in
interest rates. We do not enter into transactions designed to mitigate such
market risks for trading or speculative purposes. As of March 31, 2001, we had
no foreign exchange contracts and/or options outstanding.
We manage our interest rate risk by arranging for most long-term debt to be at
fixed rates, and for debt with shorter maturities, (including our revolving line
of credit) to have variable interest rates. For our variable-rate debt, interest
rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value of such debt, but do
impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant.
At March 31, 2001 Calloway's had variable rate debt of approximately $4.7
million, out of total debt (including borrowings under the revolving line of
credit) of $13.8 million. Holding other variables, such as debt levels,
constant, a one percentage point increase in interest rates would be expected to
have an estimated impact on income before income taxes and cash flows for next
year of approximately $47,000 for the variable-rate debt.
