(UNAUDITED)</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">National Beverage Corp. develops, manufactures, markets and distributes a complete portfolio of
quality non-alcoholic beverage products throughout the United States. Incorporated in Delaware in
1985, National Beverage Corp. is a holding company for various operating subsidiaries. When used
in this report, the terms &#147;we,&#148; &#147;us,&#148; &#147;our,&#148; &#147;Company&#148; and &#147;National Beverage&#148; mean National
Beverage Corp. and its subsidiaries.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (&#147;GAAP&#148;) and rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. The
financial statements do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete
financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results for the interim periods
presented are not necessarily indicative of results which might be expected for the entire fiscal
year.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended April&nbsp;30, 2005.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>2. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As provided by SFAS 123, we use the intrinsic value method to account for stock based compensation
awarded to employees, which generally does not recognize any compensation expense with respect to
such awards unless the exercise price of options granted is less than the market price on the date
of grant. SFAS 123R, which will be effective for fiscal 2007, requires the use of the fair value
method for all share-based payments. Had the fair value method been used, net income and basic and
diluted earnings per share for the three-month periods ended July&nbsp;30, 2005 and July&nbsp;31, 2004 would
have been reduced on a pro forma basis by less than $100,000 and $.01 per share for each period.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the three months ended July&nbsp;30, 2005, options for 18,300 shares were exercised at a weighted
average exercise price of $4.20. At July&nbsp;30, 2005, options to purchase 957,358 shares at a
weighted average exercise price of $2.72 were outstanding and stock-based awards to purchase
2,959,902 shares of common stock were available for grant.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>3. INVENTORIES</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Inventories are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. Inventories at July&nbsp;30,
2005 are comprised of finished goods of $19,532,000 and raw materials of $13,697,000. Inventories
at April&nbsp;30, 2005 are comprised of finished goods of $17,411,000 and raw materials of $12,327,000.

DEBT AND LEASE COMMITMENTS</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A subsidiary maintains unsecured revolving credit facilities aggregating $45&nbsp;million (the &#147;Credit
Facilities&#148;) with banks. The Credit Facilities expire through May&nbsp;1, 2007 and bear interest at <FONT style="font-size: 70%"><SUP>1</SUP></FONT>/<FONT style="font-size: 60%">2</FONT>%
below the banks&#146; reference rate or <FONT style="font-size: 70%"><SUP>3</SUP></FONT>/<FONT style="font-size: 60%">4</FONT>% above LIBOR, at the subsidiary&#146;s election. At July&nbsp;30, 2005,
there was no outstanding debt under the Credit Facilities and approximately $42&nbsp;million was
available for future borrowings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Credit Facilities require the subsidiary to maintain certain financial ratios and contain other
restrictions, none of which are expected to have a material impact on our operations or financial
position. Significant financial ratios and restrictions include: fixed charge coverage; net worth
ratio; and limitations on incurrence of debt. At July&nbsp;30, 2005, we were in compliance with all
loan covenants and approximately $25&nbsp;million of retained earnings were restricted from
distribution.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In July&nbsp;2005, the Company entered into an equipment lease. Under the terms of the lease, the
Company has guaranteed a residual value of the equipment at the end of the lease term
(approximately $11.6&nbsp;million). No liability has been recorded for the guarantee as management
believes that the potential recovery of value from the equipment when sold will be greater than the
residual value.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In June&nbsp;2005, we received approximately $7.7&nbsp;million from the settlement of our claim in a class
action lawsuit known as &#147;In re: High Fructose Corn Syrup Antitrust Litigation Master File No.
95-1477 in the United States District Court for the Central District of Illinois&#148;. The lawsuit
related to purchases of high fructose corn syrup made by the Company and others. The settlement

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>OVERVIEW</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">National Beverage Corp. develops, manufactures, markets and distributes a complete portfolio of
quality beverage products throughout the United States. Incorporated in Delaware in 1985, National
Beverage Corp. is a holding company for various operating subsidiaries. When used in this report,
the terms &#147;we,&#148; &#147;us,&#148; &#147;our,&#148; &#147;Company&#148; and &#147;National Beverage&#148; mean National Beverage Corp. and
its subsidiaries.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our lines of multi-flavored soft drinks, including those of our flagship brands, Shasta&#174; and
Faygo<I>&#174;, </I>emphasize distinctive flavor variety. In addition, we offer an assortment of premium
beverages geared to the health-conscious consumer, including Everfresh<I>&#174;, </I>Home Juice<I>&#174;, </I>and Mr.&nbsp;Pure<I>&#174;</I>
100% juice and juice-based products; and LaCroix<I>&#174;, </I>Mt. Shasta&#153;, Crystal Bay&#174; and ClearFruit<I>&#174;</I>
flavored and spring water products. We also produce specialty products, including Rip It&#153;, an
energy drink geared toward young consumers, Ohana&#174; fruit-flavored drinks and St. Nick&#146;s&#174; holiday
soft drinks. Substantially all of our brands are produced in 14 manufacturing facilities that are
strategically located in major metropolitan markets throughout the continental United States. To a
lesser extent, we develop and produce soft drinks for retail grocery chains, warehouse clubs,
mass-merchandisers and wholesalers (&#147;allied brands&#148;) as well as soft drinks for other beverage
companies.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our strategy emphasizes the growth of our products by offering a branded beverage portfolio of
proprietary flavors; by supporting the franchise value of regional brands and expanding those
brands with new packaging and broader demographic emphasis; by developing and acquiring innovative
products tailored toward healthy lifestyles; and by appealing to the &#147;quality-price&#148; expectations
of the family consumer. We believe that the &#147;regional share dynamics&#148; of our brands perpetuate
consumer loyalty within local regional markets, resulting in more retailer sponsored promotional
activities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Over the last several years, we have focused on increasing penetration of our brands in the
convenience channel through Company-owned and independent distributors. The convenience channel is
composed of convenience stores, gas stations and other smaller &#147;up-and-down-the-street&#148; accounts.
Because of the higher retail prices and margins that typically prevail, we have undertaken specific
measures to expand distribution in this channel. These include development of products specifically
targeted to this market, such as ClearFruit, Everfresh, Mr.&nbsp;Pure, Crystal Bay, and Rip It.
Additionally, we have created proprietary and specialized packaging for these products with
distinctive graphics. We intend to continue our focus on enhancing growth in the convenience
channel through both specialized packaging and innovative product development.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Beverage industry sales are seasonal with the highest volume typically realized during the summer
months. Additionally, our operating results are subject to numerous factors, including
fluctuations in the costs of raw materials, changes in consumer preference for beverage products
and competitive pricing in the marketplace.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>RESULTS OF OPERATIONS</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Three Months Ended July&nbsp;30, 2005 (first quarter of fiscal 2006) compared to</U><BR>
<U>Three Months Ended July&nbsp;31, 2004 (first quarter of fiscal 2005)</U>

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net sales for the three months ended July&nbsp;30, 2005 decreased approximately 1.6% to $142.4&nbsp;million
compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2005, after adjusting for the $1.8&nbsp;million received last
year from a customer relative to a recovery of pricing and promotional allowances for product
shipped in a previous period. This decrease was primarily the result of an 11.7% volume decline of
allied branded product related to our decision to eliminate certain lower margin business. Branded
volume declined 1.7% as a result of price increases initiated last year to offset raw material cost
increases. However, the related sales decline was offset by pricing improvements and favorable
product mix changes, including increased sales of our energy drink, Rip It. Excluding the $1.8
million noted above, net sales per unit increased approximately 2.1% during the first quarter of
fiscal 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Gross profit approximated 34.6% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and 33.0% of net
sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2005. This increase was due to net proceeds of $7.2&nbsp;million
received from a fructose settlement partially offset by the effects of higher cost of goods sold,
lower volume, and the $1.8&nbsp;million noted above. Excluding the fructose settlement, cost of goods
sold per unit increased approximately 5.9%, primarily due to higher packaging and energy costs.
See Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Selling, general and administrative expenses were $33.9&nbsp;million or 23.8% of net sales for the first
quarter of fiscal 2006, compared to $34.1&nbsp;million or 23.3% of net sales for last year. The
decrease in expenses was due primarily to lower distribution and marketing costs of $321,000 and
$482,000, respectively, related to the decline in sales volume.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Other income includes interest income of $293,000 (fiscal 2006) and $80,000 (fiscal 2005). The
increase in interest income is due to higher invested balances and investment yields. Also, other
income in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 includes a loss of $176,000 on the disposal of property.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s effective rate for income taxes, based upon estimated annual income tax rates,
approximated 37.9% of income before taxes for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005.
The difference between the effective rate and the federal statutory rate of 35% was primarily due
to the effects of state income taxes, nondeductible expenses and nontaxable interest income.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net income was $9,683,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, compared to $8,856,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Capital Resources</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our current sources of capital are cash flow from operations and borrowings under existing credit
facilities. We maintain unsecured revolving credit facilities aggregating $45&nbsp;million of which
approximately $42&nbsp;million was available for future borrowings at July&nbsp;30, 2005. We believe that
existing capital resources are sufficient to meet our capital requirements and those of the parent
company for the foreseeable future.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Cash Flows</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the first three months of fiscal 2006, we generated cash of $16.9&nbsp;million from operating
activities, which was partially offset by $781,000 expended for investing activities. Cash provided
by operating activities increased $5.6&nbsp;million primarily due to an increase in earnings and a
decrease in working capital requirements. Cash used in investing activities decreased $10.5
million due to a change in net marketable securities purchased and a decline in property additions.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Financial Position</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the first three months of fiscal 2006, our working capital increased $7.2&nbsp;million to $89.1
million primarily due to cash generated from operations. The increase in trade receivables,
inventories and accounts payable was due to higher sales volume related to seasonality. At July
30, 2005, the current ratio was 2.2 to 1 compared to 2.4 to 1 at April&nbsp;30, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Liquidity</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We continually evaluate capital projects designed to expand capacity and improve efficiency at our
manufacturing facilities. In fiscal 2005, we incurred increased capital expenditures to enhance
packaging capabilities and improve manufacturing efficiencies. Such programs are expected to
continue in fiscal 2006; however, capital expenditures in fiscal 2006 should not exceed fiscal 2005
amounts.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>I. PURPOSE</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Audit Committee (the &#147;Committee&#148;) reports to the Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;). Its primary
function is to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities to shareholders relating to
financial accounting and reporting, the system of internal controls established by management and
the adequacy of auditing relative to these activities. In so doing, it is the responsibility of
the Committee to maintain free and open communication between the Board, the independent auditors,
and the financial management of the Company.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As with the Board, the Committee has oversight, not managerial duties and authorities, in
discharging its responsibilities. Accordingly, it is not the responsibility of the Committee to
plan or conduct audits or to determine whether the Company&#146;s financial statements are complete and
accurate or are in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles; rather, those matters
are the responsibility of management and the outside auditor. Similarly, it is not the
responsibility of the Committee to conduct investigations, to assure compliance by the Company with
the federal securities laws or other legal requirements or to assure compliance with laws or the
Company&#146;s corporate compliance program or any code of ethics. The Committee will, of necessity,
rely upon management and the outside auditors in carrying out the responsibilities specified in
this Charter.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>II. COMPOSITION</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Committee of the Board shall be comprised of at least three directors elected annually by the
Board, each of whom shall be independent of management of the Company and free from any
relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of his or her
independent judgment as a member of the Committee. All members of the Committee shall have a
working familiarity with basic finance and accounting practices, and at least one member of the
Committee shall have accounting or related financial management expertise.
