    Sales increased by $1,627,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 as compared to the third quarter of 2006. 
This increase is due to additional stores and by higher average weekly sales as a result of the Company's new 
marketing strategies.

    Total revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 were $3,883,000, up $66,000 over fiscal 2006. Royalty 
revenue increased $77,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 in comparison to the third quarter of fiscal 2006. 
This increase is due to additional stores being opened and increased sales. Sales of Franchise stores decreased 
by $18,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2007.

    The loss from continuing operations for the 13 weeks ended December, 2006 (fiscal 2007) in the amount of 
$110,000 included a royalty penalty paid of $55,000. Future earnings from continuing operations should improve 
through the reduction of the royalty penalty. The royalty penalty payment will be reduced with each store opening 
and the Company's goal is to bring this penalty to zero.

    Management is currently working to improve corporate stores results. A review of our operations, of our 
supplier's contracts and a staff reduction were done to reduce our costs. On the development side, we have now 
277 stores operating on our way to reach in a short term the 288 required in our MFA. At this point we will stop 
to pay the royalty penalty.

    Currently, CPD has nine (9) stores in various stages of development. Five (5) have secured leases and are 
currently under construction. Store opening dates vary due to the length of time required to find a location and 
secure the lease before we are able to order the equipment.
