1995. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of
Electronics Boutique, its directors or its officers with respect to, among other things: (i)&nbsp;trends affecting Electronics Boutique's financial condition or results of operations; and
(ii)&nbsp;Electronics Boutique's business and growth strategies. Readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and
uncertainties, and that actual results or outcomes may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>General  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe we are among the world's largest specialty retailers of video game hardware and software, PC entertainment software and related accessories and
products. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, we operated 1,145 stores, primarily under the names Electronics Boutique and EB Games, in Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway,
Puerto Rico, South Korea, Sweden and the United States. We also operate a commercial website under the URL address </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>www.ebgames.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>. Our compound annual
growth rates for sales and pre-tax net income from fiscal 1999 through fiscal 2003 were 21.7% and 16.9%, respectively (after giving effect to the adoption of EITF&nbsp;02-16
as of the beginning of fiscal 2003). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
interactive entertainment industry is an approximately $11.7&nbsp;billion market in the United States that has grown at a compound annual growth rate of 21.2% over the last two
years. The introductions of Sony's PlayStation&nbsp;2 in late 2000, Nintendo's Game Boy Advance in June&nbsp;2001, and Nintendo's GameCube and Microsoft's Xbox in November&nbsp;2001, represent
the most significant video game hardware introductions since 1996. According to International Development Group, a leading market research firm in our industry, calendar 2003 is expected to be the
peak year for hardware unit sales in the United States, with console and handheld sales expected to reach almost 24&nbsp;million units. With the growing hardware installed base, we expect to see
significant growth in software sales over the next two years. We believe our position, as the destination of choice for the avid gamer, will enable us to benefit from this rapid industry growth. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
serve the avid gamer who demands immediate access to new release titles and who generally purchases more video game titles and PC entertainment software than the average gamer. As a
result, our tie ratio of software units sold to hardware units sold is consistently above the industry average. We believe that we attract both the avid and casual gamer due to our: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Manufacturers may fail to introduce or delay the introduction of new products, which could hurt our ability to attract and retain customers.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are highly dependent on the introduction of new and enhanced video game hardware and software and PC entertainment software by manufacturers for our success.
If manufacturers fail to introduce or delay the introduction of new products, we would have difficulty attracting and retaining customers to buy the products we sell, which could adversely affect our
business. Many of the factors that impact our ability to sell new products are beyond our control, including: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>The interactive entertainment industry is cyclical, which could cause significant fluctuations in our earnings.  </B></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Demand for video game systems and software fluctuates in relation to the introduction of next-generation hardware and related software titles.
Manufacturers have historically introduced next-generation systems every four to five years. Sales volumes of new video game systems and related software titles are generally higher in the
initial stages of the products' life cycles. As a product reaches the end of its life cycle, demand for the product will generally decline as our customers anticipate the introduction of
next-generation products. If leading video game system manufacturers fail to continue to introduce next-generation systems, or fail to enhance existing systems on a periodic
basis, our sales of hardware systems and related software titles will decrease, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>If our vendors fail to provide marketing and merchandising support at historical levels, our sales and earnings could be negatively impacted.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The manufacturers of video game hardware and software and PC entertainment software have typically provided retailers with significant marketing and merchandising
support for their products. As part of this support, we receive cooperative advertising and market development payments from these vendors. These cooperative advertising and market development

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>If we fail to keep pace with rapidly changing industry technology, we will be at a competitive disadvantage.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The interactive entertainment industry is characterized by swiftly changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent new and enhanced product
introductions and rapid product obsolescence. These characteristics require us to respond quickly to technological changes and to understand their impact on our customers' preferences. If we fail to
keep pace with these changes, our business may suffer. In addition, some of these technological changes, such as the ability to download video games onto PCs or play games over the Internet through
consoles could make the retail sale of video games and PC entertainment software obsolete. If advances in technology continue to expand our customers' ability to access software through other sources,
our sales and earnings could be negatively impacted. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Risks Related to Our Business  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>If we fail to manage new store openings or renew existing locations as they expire, our operational and financial results could be negatively impacted.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our growth depends on our ability to open and operate new stores profitably. We currently intend to open approximately 275 new stores in fiscal 2004. Our ability
to open new stores in a timely and profitable manner depends upon numerous contingencies, including our ability to locate and lease suitable store sites, build out these sites on a timely and
cost-effective basis, hire and train new associates, and integrate these stores into our existing operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to achieve our planned expansion or
that our new stores will achieve sales and profitability levels comparable to our existing stores. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of February&nbsp;1, 2003, approximately 10% of our stores were operated under leases with terms that expire in less than one year. We cannot assure you that we will be able to
maintain these existing store locations as leases expire or that we will be able to locate suitable alternative sites on acceptable terms. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>If we do not compete effectively, we will lose customers and our earnings will decline.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We face intense competition in the interactive entertainment industry and this could lead to reduced sales and profit margins. We compete with: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As part of our efforts to grow and compete, we may engage in acquisitions. Our plans to pursue future acquisitions are subject to our ability to negotiate
favorable terms for these acquisitions. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that future acquisitions will be completed. In addition, to facilitate future acquisitions, we may take actions that could
dilute the equity interests of our stockholders, increase our debt or cause us to assume contingent liabilities, all of which may have a detrimental effect on the price of our common stock. Finally,
if any acquisitions are not successfully integrated with our business, our ongoing operations could be adversely affected. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Our services agreement with The Game Group Plc restricts our ability to expand our business in Europe and litigation with Game Group could adversely affect our business and
earnings.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our services agreement with Game Group (formerly The Electronics Boutique Plc) prohibits us from competing with Game Group in the United Kingdom until
January&nbsp;2007. The services agreement also requires that, until January&nbsp;2006, we report to Game Group any opportunity relating to the interactive entertainment retailing business that we
become aware of in Europe (excluding Scandinavia) which could be made available to Game Group and that we use reasonable endeavors to procure that each and every such opportunity is first offered to
Game Group, on the same terms, including as to cost. As a result, Game Group could impede our expansion in Europe by pursuing opportunities in Europe which we report to it, and entering into
agreements with our intended business partners. Game Group has publicly stated that it intends to expand its business into continental Europe. Our compliance with the services agreement will delay and
could prevent, limit, or increase the cost of, any acquisitions in continental Europe. We have in the past had disagreements with Game Group in connection with the services agreement. These
disagreements have resulted in litigation and could result in additional litigation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
the services agreement, Game Group is responsible for the payment of fees equal to 1.0% of Game Group's adjusted sales, plus a bonus calculated on the basis of net income in excess
of a pre-established target set by Game Group. In fiscal 2003, we received approximately $7.4&nbsp;million in management fees from Game Group. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Our operating results fluctuate from period to period, which could result in a lower price for our common stock.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our business is affected by seasonal patterns. We historically generate our highest net sales, management fees and net income during the fourth quarter, which
includes the holiday selling season. During fiscal 2003, we generated approximately 40.5% of our net sales and approximately 86.0% of our operating income during the fourth quarter. Accordingly, any
adverse trend in net sales during the holiday selling season could adversely affect our results of operations for the fourth quarter and the entire year. In addition to our dependence on fourth
quarter sales, our results fluctuate from quarter to quarter depending upon a variety of factors, most of which we can not control. These include: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These
fluctuations make the prediction of our financial results on a quarterly basis difficult. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>If we fail to obtain products from our domestic and overseas suppliers, our sales and gross profit will be adversely affected.  </B></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We rely heavily upon our suppliers to provide us with new products as quickly as possible. We purchase a significant amount of products from Sony Computer
Entertainment,&nbsp;Inc., Electronic Arts,&nbsp;Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Nintendo of America,&nbsp;Inc., and often receive shipments of new release products which are disproportionately large
relative to our share of the overall consumer video game market. During fiscal 2003, our purchases from Sony, Electronic Arts, Microsoft and Nintendo represented 14.8%, 12.3%, 11.5% and 9.3%,
respectively, of our gross purchases. We believe that the loss of any of these suppliers could reduce our product offerings, which could cause us to be at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, our
financial performance largely depends upon the business terms we obtain from our suppliers, including competitive prices, unsold product return policies, advertising and market development allowances,
freight charges and payment terms. Our failure to maintain favorable business terms with our suppliers could adversely affect our ability to offer products to consumers at competitive prices. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
fiscal 2003, approximately one-third of our product purchases were of products manufactured outside of the United States, primarily in Asia. To the extent that our
distributors rely on overseas sources for their products, any event causing a disruption of imports, including the imposition of import restrictions, could adversely affect our business. Trade
restrictions in the form of tariffs or quotas, or both, applicable to the products we sell could also affect the importation of these products and could increase the cost and reduce the supply of
products available to us. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>If our management information systems fail to perform or are inadequate, our ability to manage our business could be disrupted.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We rely on a warehouse management system used in our domestic distribution centers and an inventory replenishment system to track sales and inventory. Our systems
allow us to execute our "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>first-to-market</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>" new release strategy, to keep our stores in stock at optimum levels and to move
inventory efficiently. If our management information systems fail to adequately perform these functions, our business could be adversely affected. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Our international operations expose us to numerous risks.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have international retail operations in Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea and Sweden. Net sales in these foreign
countries represented approximately 19% of our net sales in fiscal 2003. Because release schedules for hardware and software introduction in these countries often differ from release schedules in the
United States, the timing of increases and decreases in foreign sales may differ from the timing of increases or decreases in domestic sales. We
are also subject to a number of other factors which may impair our current or future international opportunities. These include: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>The Kim family has significant control of our company and can make decisions that could adversely affect our stock price and prevent a change of control.  </B></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;EB Nevada&nbsp;Inc., a company indirectly controlled by James Kim, his wife and certain trusts for the benefit of his children, owns approximately 44.7% of the
outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, the Kim family effectively controls our company and all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of
significant corporate transactions. This control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of our company
and could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of any sale or acquisition. Under a credit facility we have with Fleet Capital Corporation, if
the Kim family does not own, indirectly through EB Nevada, at least 25% of our outstanding capital stock, we may be declared in default under the credit facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Our status as a holding company and our credit facility restrict our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are a holding company and do not have any material assets other than our ownership interests in our subsidiaries. Our common stock will be junior in right of
payment to all of our existing and future liabilities and obligations and, by virtue of the fact that we are a holding company, our common stock will be structurally junior in right of payment to all
existing and future liabilities and obligations of each of our subsidiaries. We have not declared or paid dividends on our common stock since our initial public offering in July&nbsp;1998. In
addition, our credit facility with Fleet Capital Corporation restricts our ability to declare or pay dividends on our common stock. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Our income taxes could increase in the future.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our corporate structure includes the use of Delaware holding companies and subsidiaries that hold our intellectual property and facilitate financing for our
operations. Certain state taxing authorities have begun to review their positions with respect to income tax deductions taken as a result of these structures. If some or all of the income tax
deductions resulting from our corporate structure are disallowed in the future, the income taxes we pay could increase, which will negatively impact our earnings. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain anti-takeover protections, which may discourage or prevent a takeover of our company, even if an acquisition
would be beneficial to our stockholders.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could make it more difficult for a third party to

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Industry Overview  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The interactive entertainment industry is comprised of two primary product categories, video games and PC entertainment software. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Video games.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Domestic retail sales of video game titles and hardware systems were approximately $9.1&nbsp;billion in 2002.
According to International Development Group, domestic software sales are expected to grow approximately 10.7% in 2003 while hardware unit sales are expected to peak with 1.9% growth over 2002. Growth
in the industry has been driven by continued improvements in systems technology, substantial growth in the number of titles available across game categories and the emergence of
well-capitalized software publishers with significant advertising budgets to support new releases. Enhanced technological features of new hardware platforms expand gaming capabilities,
encourage existing players to upgrade their hardware platforms and attract new video game players to purchase their first systems. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;From
1996 to September&nbsp;1999, Nintendo and Sony, each of which manufactures proprietary hardware, dominated the video game market. Sony introduced the PlayStation in 1995 and
Nintendo introduced the Nintendo&nbsp;64 in 1996. In September&nbsp;1999, Sega introduced the Sega Dreamcast. In October&nbsp;2000, Sony introduced the PlayStation&nbsp;2, which represented a
significant improvement in graphics, processing power and audio quality over the systems in use at the time. Nintendo introduced the Game Boy Advance, the successor to the highly successful Game Boy,
in June&nbsp;2001. Nintendo's GameCube, introduced in November&nbsp;2001, features significant performance enhancements over the Nintendo&nbsp;64 system and is based on CD technology as compared
to the prior cartridge-based technology. Microsoft's Xbox, also launched in November&nbsp;2001, provides advanced graphics and Internet connectivity. In March&nbsp;2003, Nintendo introduced a
significantly enhanced design of the Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Advance SP. We believe that the interactive entertainment industry is experiencing an expansion cycle, which started with the
introduction of Game Boy Advance, PlayStation&nbsp;2, GameCube and Xbox. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
year-end 2002, the installed base of video game hardware systems in the United States totaled approximately 15.9&nbsp;million PlayStation&nbsp;2 units,
4.6&nbsp;million Xbox units, 3.6&nbsp;million GameCube units and 11.7&nbsp;million Game Boy Advance units. Hardware manufacturers and third-party publishers produce a wide range of game titles
for each of these major hardware systems. In addition, according to NPD Group,&nbsp;Inc., a market research firm, sales of video game systems accessories were estimated to be approximately
$1.3&nbsp;billion in 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PC entertainment software.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Domestic retail sales of PC entertainment software were approximately $1.4&nbsp;billion in 2002,
down slightly from the prior year. According to International Development Group, PC entertainment software sales are expected to decline 1% to 2% annually over the next several years. PC entertainment
software is generally sold in the form of CD-Roms and played on multimedia PCs featuring fast processors, expanded memories, and enhanced graphics and audio capabilities. The domestic
installed base of multimedia PCs has increased from approximately 14.0&nbsp;million units in 1995 to approximately 63.8&nbsp;million units in 2002. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Customers.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe the typical gamer is male, single, between the ages of 14 and 34, and lives in a household with an
annual income in excess of $50,000. We also believe that our customers are often opinion leaders in the interactive entertainment industry, influencing the buying decisions of friends and family.
According to a study conducted by Ziff Davis Media Game Group, our core customer, the avid gamer, owns multiple video game hardware systems and purchases an average of 12 game titles per year,
significantly more than the average gamer. In addition, many video game players purchase PC entertainment software as well as video game titles. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Competitive Strengths  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We seek to enhance our position as one of the world's largest specialty retailers of video game titles and PC entertainment software by focusing on the following: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Breadth of title selection.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We offer our customers an extensive selection of video game titles and PC entertainment software
at competitive prices. Our typical store offers over 1,400 titles (excluding pre-owned games) at any given time from over 60 video game and PC entertainment software vendors. These titles
are also available on our website. We continuously update our title selection in each store to reflect the tastes and buying patterns of the store's local market. We carry game titles which are
compatible with all major video game hardware systems and PCs. In addition to video game titles and PC entertainment software, we offer a complementary line of PC and video game accessories and
peripheral products, including controllers, joysticks, memory cards, DVD remotes, books and magazines. By offering all major video game hardware systems and providing a broad but focused assortment of
video game software and accessories and PC entertainment software, we seek to establish our stores and website as the destination of choice for avid gamers. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Immediate availability of new releases.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We strive to be the first in our markets to offer new video game and PC entertainment
software titles upon their release. We believe that vendors recognize the importance of our video game enthusiast customer base and, consequently, often grant us disproportionately large allocations
of new release products. Our inventory management systems then rapidly move the products from our distribution centers to our stores. New release titles are often preceded by substantial publicity in
the form of print advertisements and reviews in publications and, increasingly, are promoted through television advertisements by the game and software publishers. This publicity tends to create high
levels of demand for new releases among video game enthusiasts, often well in advance of release dates. This demand has afforded us an important marketing opportunity to drive traffic to our stores
and our website. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To
assure our customers immediate access to new releases, we offer our customers the "EB Pre-Sell Program" through which they can reserve video games and PC entertainment

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Highly effective inventory management system.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have a highly effective inventory management system that enables us to
maximize sales of new release titles and avoid markdowns as titles mature. The system forecasts our inventory requirements on an individual store basis, aggregates our total requirements and manages
the daily replenishment function from our automated distribution centers to our stores. This results in improved in-stock levels in our stores. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Knowledgeable sales associates.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that our knowledgeable sales associates, many of whom are avid gamers, and our
higher level of customer service provide us with an important advantage over competitors such as mass merchants, toy retail chains, and office supply, computer product and consumer electronics
superstores. We provide all of our sales associates with training and information on video game and PC entertainment products, system requirements and selling techniques through vendor-sponsored "EB
University" seminars, held for store managers and field managers, and through regularly scheduled in-store seminars for our sales associates. We also encourage our sales associates to
learn about customers' game preferences. With this knowledge, sales associates introduce customers to a selection of games and accessories that may suit their preferences and advise them of new
releases suited to their interests, thereby enhancing our customers' overall gaming experience. </FONT></P>

react quickly to shifts in product pricing and consumer purchasing trends. We strive to increase the productivity of our stores by actively managing our payroll expense and operating our stores as
efficiently as possible. In order to display most of our products on our stores' shelves, we maintain selling space which averages approximately 90% of our stores' total square footage in each of our
store formats. In an effort to enhance our sales conversion rates, in many of our stores we utilize a system, known as ShopperTrak, that electronically measures store customer traffic throughout the
day and provides us with an analysis of sales conversion rates by store and by sales associate. We also utilize our POS reporting systems to assure the best possible match of sales associate floor
coverage to customer traffic. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Value pricing.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In an effort to offer maximum value to our customers and discourage comparison shopping, we maintain an
"everyday low price" policy on advertised merchandise. We complement this policy with an extensive selection of merchandise and a high level of customer service. We also offer a pre-owned
program which allows customers to save additional money by trading in their used games for credit toward any product sold in our stores. The trade-ins are then resold to other customers at
lower prices than our new products to offer a broader range of products and price choices for our customers. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Leadership in e-business.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that our customers are generally more familiar with the Internet and with
online retailing than the average consumer. Our website offers over 5,000 new and pre-owned stock keeping units, known as SKUs, that are available for immediate shipping to our customers.
In addition, we have designed our website to serve our customers by providing product reviews, access to new releases, user-friendly online purchasing and the ability to
pre-order video games and PC entertainment software. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Growth Strategy  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;New store expansion.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that there are domestic and international opportunities for significant new store growth.
Over the last four fiscal years, we have more than doubled our store base. We plan to open approximately 275 new stores in fiscal 2004. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Domestic opportunity.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We plan to open approximately 200 new stores in fiscal 2004 in the United States. We plan to continue
to open stores in selected malls. In addition, we plan to accelerate growth in urban areas, central business districts and strip and power shopping centers. We expect our stores in these locations to
require lower initial investments, generate higher gross margins on lower revenue and have a lower operating cost structure than our mall-based stores. These stores, which typically carry
a wider assortment of pre-owned video games than our mall-based stores, target the more value conscious gamer. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International opportunity.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In fiscal 2002, we began a store expansion program in continental Europe which includes both the
opening of new stores and the acquisition of regional chains. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, we operated a total of 290 stores in Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, South
Korea, and Sweden. We plan to open approximately 75 new stores in fiscal 2004 in these markets. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
interactive entertainment market in continental Europe is approximately $7.0&nbsp;billion in size and has consumer demand characteristics similar to the U.S. market. We believe
retail competition in the interactive entertainment industry is weaker throughout continental Europe than in the United States. There are very few specialty interactive entertainment retail chains in
continental Europe and the existing specialty chains are small and undercapitalized, with little or no investment in distribution and information systems. Most video games are sold in Europe through
general merchandise stores that offer less service and a smaller product selection than our stores. We believe that our store model, merchandising expertise and strong vendor relationships should
enable us to gain significant market share in our targeted continental European markets over the next several years. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Expansion of online retailing.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that our core customer tends to be an Internet user, and we strive to meet their
needs through our website, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>www.ebgames.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>., which provides product reviews, access to new release titles, user friendly online purchasing and the
ability to pre-order video games and PC entertainment software. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Retail Operations  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, we operated a total of 1,145 stores in the United States, Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Puerto
Rico, South Korea and Sweden, primarily under the names Electronics Boutique and EB Games. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Store formats.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Many of our stores are specialty retail stores located in high traffic areas in regional shopping malls. As of
February&nbsp;1, 2003, we operated 768 stores with this format in the United States and Canada. These stores average approximately 1,200 square feet. We believe that our mall-based
stores generate sales per square foot that are among the highest of any mall-based retailer. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition to our mall-based stores, we also operate many stores in urban areas, central business districts, and strip and power shopping centers. These stores are generally
larger than our mall-based stores, averaging approximately 1,700 square feet. We began our expansion into these other locations in fiscal 2001, and as of February&nbsp;1, 2003, we
operated 213 stores with this format. We believe that these stores do not compete directly with mall-based stores due to their locations and their focus on pre-owned games. The
balance of our stores that were open as of February&nbsp;1, 2003 were located outside of the United States and Canada and are comprised of mall-based stores as well as multiple other
formats. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
typically locate our stores in malls and strip and power shopping centers and we believe that there are many suitable locations available for future sites. We use standardized site
selection criteria for each of our formats to choose sites. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of the first quarter of fiscal 2003, we operated 22 stores that sold sports collectibles and memorabilia under the name BC Sports Collectibles and 29 stores that sold interactive and
developmental toys and family-friendly, non-violent software under the EBKids brand. In February&nbsp;2002, we announced our decision to sell the BC Sports Collectibles chain and to
close the EBKids chain. We made this strategic decision to enable us to focus all of our resources&#151;management, capital, and systems&#151;on the growth opportunities in our core
interactive entertainment market. The closing of the EBKids stores was completed in May&nbsp;2002 and the sale of our 22 store BC Sports Collectibles business closed in November&nbsp;2002. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Store economics.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The average cost, net of payables, of opening a new mall-based store in fiscal 2003 was
approximately $164,000. This included approximately $148,000 for furniture, fixtures, equipment and leasehold improvements. Pre-opening expenses are minimal and are included in the store's
expenses for the first month of operation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
average cost, net of payables, of opening a new strip center store in fiscal 2003 was approximately $77,000. This includes approximately $62,000 for furniture, fixtures, equipment
and leasehold improvements. Pre-opening expenses are minimal and are included in the store's expenses for the first month of operation. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
cost to open an international store is approximately the same in U.S. dollars as the cost to open a domestic store. Typically, our new stores have generated a positive store
operating contribution within the first 12&nbsp;months of operations. We regularly review the profitability and prospects of each of our stores and evaluate whether any under performing stores
should be closed or relocated to more desirable locations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Following
the opening of a store, we utilize inventory management and controls and manage store payroll in an effort to maximize profitability. Our POS and inventory management systems
allow us to analyze merchandise mix and in-stock positions and reduce shrinkage. We also utilize various payroll management and efficiency systems to improve sales conversions and store
profitability. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Store operations.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We divide our North American store base (United States and Canada) into 11 geographic regions, which are
supervised by our President of Stores&#151;North America and Canada, our Vice President of Store Operations (Canada), Regional Vice Presidents/Directors and District Managers. Our Senior Vice
President of International Operations, who is based in France, supervises our international operations other than in Canada. Managing Directors, District Managers and Area Managers supervise our
stores in Denmark, Germany, Italy, Norway and Sweden. A General Manager, Regional Director, District Managers and Area Managers supervise our stores in Australia, New Zealand and South Korea. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each
of our stores typically has a full-time manager and a full-time assistant manager in addition to hourly sales associates, most of whom work
part-time. The number of hourly sales associates in each store fluctuates depending on our seasonal needs. Our domestic stores are open seven days per week and generally ten hours each
day. We operate our international stores in a manner similar to our domestic stores. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Online Retailing  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We launched our e-commerce website, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>ebworld.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>, in August&nbsp;1997. As part of our rebranding
initiative, we changed the name of the website to </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>ebgames.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> earlier this year. Online orders have increased year over year and our
e-commerce operating subsidiary has been profitable since fiscal 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Internet represents a complementary channel to our store-based retail business. Our own surveys indicate that our website's detailed product reviews, game previews, new release
schedules, product notification services, industry news and advanced search capabilities appeal to a significant portion of our gamer audience. </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Ebgames.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> utilizes our merchandising expertise and
strong vendor relationships to provide online customers with over 5,000 new and
pre-owned SKUs that are available for immediate shipping. Further, </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>ebgames.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> leverages our distribution and fulfillment capabilities to
provide delivery of new release titles to online consumers on the same day they are available in our stores. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
believe that Internet broadband technology will play an important role in the future of online retailing. We continue to explore different ways to assume a leadership role in the
online distribution of games. Adoption of this new technology by consumers has been limited. However, as adoption of this technology grows and other game delivery technologies emerge, we expect to
actively pursue these opportunities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Game Group Services Agreement  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Game Group is one of the leading specialty retailers of interactive entertainment in the United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Spain and Sweden, operating over 400
stores. Game Group's business strategy is substantially similar to our business strategy. Under the terms of a services agreement, at the request of Game Group, we are required to provide management
services, including assistance with ordering and purchasing inventory, store design and acquisition, advertising, promotion, publicity and information systems. We also license the use of the name
Electronics Boutique to Game Group. Game Group is responsible for the payment of fees, payable, at our option, in cash or Game Group stock, equal to 1.0% of Game Group's adjusted sales, plus a bonus
calculated on the basis of net income in excess of a pre-established target set by Game Group. In fiscal 2003, we received approximately $7.4&nbsp;million in management fees from Game

services agreement, currently scheduled for January&nbsp;2006. The services agreement also requires that, until January&nbsp;2006, we report to Game Group any opportunity relating to the
interactive entertainment retailing business which we become aware of in Europe (excluding Scandinavia) which could be made available to Game Group and use reasonable endeavors to procure that each
and every such opportunity is first offered to Game Group, on the same terms, including as to cost. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Products  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our product line consists of video game titles, PC entertainment software titles, video game hardware systems, related products and toys, trading cards and
accessories. Our in-store inventory at any given time averages over 2,400 SKUs. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Video game titles and PC entertainment software.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We carry an average of over 1,400 video game and PC entertainment software
titles (excluding pre-owned games) at any given time. We purchase video game titles directly from the leading console manufacturers, which include Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo, as well as
a variety of third-party software publishers, such as Electronic Arts, Take-Two Interactive Software,&nbsp;Inc., Activision,&nbsp;Inc., Sega Corporation, and THQ&nbsp;Inc. We are one
of the largest domestic customers of video game products sold by these publishers. We currently purchase titles from over 60 vendors across a variety of genres, including Action, Strategy,
Adventure/Role Playing, Simulation, Sports, Children's Entertainment and Family Entertainment. We maintain a broad selection of popular new release titles, which we define as titles that have been
available for less than six weeks from the date of their release. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pre-owned video games and PC entertainment software.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a result of the proliferation of new titles and the
tendency of gamers to seek new game challenges after mastering a particular title, a growing market for pre-owned game titles has evolved. We carry over 1,300 pre-owned SKUs in
our typical store. We allow customers to trade in pre-owned games in our stores. We believe that the opportunity to trade-in games and the availability of pre-owned
titles in our stores is attractive to the value conscious gamer and differentiates us from most of our competition, which do not generally accept trade-ins or offer pre-owned
games. In return for a trade-in the customers receive a store credit, which can be applied towards the purchase of new or pre-owned products. At our in-house
product reclamation center, these trade-ins can be tested, cleaned, relabeled, repackaged, repriced and redistributed back to the stores. These trade-ins are then resold in our
stores at a discount to the price of new releases. Sales of pre-owned games generate significantly higher margins than new titles. We believe that availability of pre-owned
games in our stores attracts our core game enthusiast customer and drives traffic into our stores. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Video game hardware.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We sell the video game hardware systems of all major manufacturers, including Sony's
PlayStation&nbsp;2, Nintendo's GameCube and Game Boy Advance and Microsoft's Xbox. While we offer the newest technology in video game systems, we also offer a wide range of the older video game
systems through our pre-owned program. Our pre-owned program affords customers the opportunity to trade-in older video game hardware for credit towards the purchase
of one of the latest systems. We also offer extended service agreements and extensions of manufacturer warranties for the video game systems. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Accessories.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In recent years, the growing popularity of video games has led to an increase in sales of accessory products,
which generally have higher gross margins than hardware and software products. We currently offer approximately 600 accessory product SKUs, including controllers and memory cards. We also market
instructional books and strategy guides on the most popular video game titles. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Related products and trading cards.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We offer an assortment of trading cards, such as Yu-Gi-Oh and
Magic The Gathering products, that appeal to our core customers. We also offer collectable action figures and gaming magazines. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Inventory management.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We do extensive research prior to the release of new products and titles and carefully manage our
inventory to minimize the risk associated with introducing new products and titles. Our centralized merchandising staff evaluates potential products and analyzes the EB Pre-Sell Program
information and other data to estimate initial demand and the projected life cycle for a new release. We then use our new product analyses to plan our initial purchases and allocations among our
stores and website. Through our inventory replenishment system, we forecast and actively manage our ongoing inventory requirements on an individual store and aggregate basis. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Distribution.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We currently operate three distribution centers in the United States, each of which focuses on separate
components of our business. Our 97,500 square foot facility in West Chester, Pennsylvania handles staple products and online fulfillment. Our 80,000 square foot distribution center in West Chester,
Pennsylvania handles returns and reclamation. Our 200,000 square foot distribution center in Louisville, Kentucky supports flow-through operations on new releases, top selling products and
online fulfillment. We also have a 120,000 square foot facility in Canada, a 70,000 square foot facility in Australia and four smaller European facilities in Denmark, Germany, Italy and Sweden. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These
distribution facilities allow us to replenish our stores on a daily basis supporting our "</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>first-to-market</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>"
new-release strategy. Our rapid processing capability in our distribution centers is facilitated by several advanced inventory management technologies, including paperless picking and
radio frequency support. We also use a warehouse management system in our domestic distribution centers that enables us to better manage labor and freight costs. Our distribution network enables us to
provide immediate delivery service to our online customers. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Marketing  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In-store promotions.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Many of our stores are located in high traffic, high visibility areas in regional shopping
malls. Accordingly, our marketing efforts at these stores are designed to draw mall patrons into our stores through the use of window displays and other attractions visible to shoppers in the mall
concourse. We actively publicize our other stores through a variety of media, including print, radio and selected local television advertising. Inside all of our stores, we feature selected products
through the use of vendor displays, signs, fliers, point of purchase materials and end-cap displays. A majority of these promotions are funded through advertising allowances and market
development funds from manufacturers, distributors, software publishers and accessory suppliers. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
January&nbsp;2003, as a combined effort with Ziff Davis Media, GMR magazine was launched in our stores. GMR magazine is a monthly publication providing news and reviews on the
latest products for PC and video gamers. Customers that purchase a ten-month subscription to GMR are eligible to receive a discount on the purchase of pre-owned products in our
stores. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Catalogs.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We publish eight or more full color catalogs each year ranging in size from 52 to 100 pages. Our vendors fund the
cost of these catalogs. The catalogs are available in our stores and are mailed to several hundred thousand households from our proprietary customer lists. The catalogs are also inserted in leading
industry magazines. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ebgames.com.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe our online presence and marketing initiatives play a key role in strengthening our brand identity.
Our online marketing initiatives focus on partnering with companies that operate other websites, such as CNET. These initiatives enable us to access the broad reach of the Internet at a low cost. We
also advertise in game focused magazines and online with portals such as AOL and MSN. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Management Information Systems  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our primary management information system is a customized version of the AS400-based JDA Merchandise Management System. We have made proprietary
enhancements to this program, which enable us to analyze total, comparative and new store sales and inventory data at the company, region, district and store levels. We operate our own proprietary
store POS and back office systems and believe this provides a strategic advantage by allowing us to make enhancements to meet business opportunities quickly. We have integrated the ShopperTrak
customer counting technology into our POS and our AS400 system. This combination of technology provides centralized access to store traffic and sales conversion information by store and hour at our
store locations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Vendors  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We purchase substantially all of our products directly from manufacturers and software publishers. Our top 25 vendors accounted for approximately 88% of our
purchases in fiscal 2003. Our largest vendors in fiscal 2003 were Sony, Electronics Arts, Microsoft and Nintendo, which accounted for 14.8%, 12.3%, 11.5% and 9.3%, respectively, of our gross
purchases. No other vendor accounted for more than 5.0% of our software or accessory purchases during fiscal 2003. We believe that we have good relationships with our vendors. Maintaining and
strengthening these relationships is essential to our operations and continued expansion. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
participate in marketing programs with each of our key product vendors, including Sony, Electronic Arts, Microsoft and Nintendo. Under these programs, we are eligible to receive
marketing allowances from product vendors provided we perform certain specified marketing and merchandising events and activities pursuant to the terms of written agreements we negotiate with our
vendors for each event or activity. Typical events or activities are print advertising, television advertising, product catalog advertising, in-store display promotions, Internet
advertising, and product training and promotion at our national trade show. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Competition  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The interactive entertainment industry is intensely competitive and subject to rapid changes in consumer preferences and frequent new product introductions. We
compete with other specialty retailers of video games and PC software, as well as with mass merchants, toy retail chains, catalogs, direct sales by software publishers, online retailers, and office
supply, computer product and consumer electronics superstores. In addition, video games are available for rental from many video stores. Further, other methods of distribution may emerge in the
future, resulting in increased competition. </FONT></P>

Group filed suit in March&nbsp;2002 in the Chancery Division of the High Court of Justice in the United Kingdom. It sought a ruling that, because of an alleged change of control
of EB Services Company, it was entitled to terminate the services agreement between itself and EB Services Company that had been in effect since 1995 and that does not expire by its terms until at
least 2006. Pursuant to the services agreement, EB Services Company receives significant fees from Game Group. The fees were approximately $7.4&nbsp;million for the fiscal year ended
February&nbsp;1, 2003. In October&nbsp;2002, the Chancery Division ruled that Game Group was not entitled to terminate the services agreement. </FONT></P>

fiscal 2002, the restructuring and asset impairment charge of $12.6&nbsp;million resulted from our adoption of a plan to close the operations of all 29 EB Kids stores and sell

equipment and $6.7&nbsp;million in lease termination costs. In fiscal 2003, the $2.6&nbsp;million net reversal of the restructuring and asset impairment charge resulted primarily from store lease

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Overview  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that we are among the world's largest specialty retailers of video game hardware and software, PC entertainment software and related accessories and
products. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, we operated a total of 1,145 stores in 46 states, Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Puerto Rico, South Korea and
Sweden&#151;primarily under the names Electronics Boutique and EB Games. In addition, we operated a commercial website under the URL address of </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>ebgames.com</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>. As of such date, we also provided management
services for Game Group, which operated over 400 stores and department store-based concessions
in the United Kingdom, Spain, France, Sweden and Ireland. We are a holding company and do not have any significant assets or liabilities, other than all of the outstanding capital stock of our
subsidiaries. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our
fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest January&nbsp;31. Accordingly the financial statements for the years ended February&nbsp;2, 2002 ("fiscal 2002") and February&nbsp;1,
2003 ("fiscal 2003") each include 52 weeks of operations and the year ending February&nbsp;3, 2001 ("fiscal 2001") includes 53 weeks of operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Change in Accounting Principle  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In November&nbsp;2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached consensus on Issue 02-16, Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for
Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor. Issue 02-16 addresses the accounting for cash consideration received from a vendor by a reseller for various vendor funded allowances, including
cooperative advertising support. Issue 02-16 is effective for new arrangements or modifications to existing arrangements entered into after December&nbsp;31, 2002,
although early adoption is permitted. We elected to adopt early, effective February&nbsp;3, 2002, the provisions of Issue 02-16 in the preparation of this Annual Report on
Form&nbsp;10-K. Accordingly, in fiscal 2003, we recorded a cumulative effect of accounting change of $7.6&nbsp;million, $4.8&nbsp;million net of income tax, for the impact of this
adoption on prior fiscal years. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, $10.0&nbsp;million of our vendor advertising allowances has been recorded as a reduction of inventory and will be recognized in cost of
goods sold as inventory is sold. This adoption has also resulted in the reclassification of $45.3&nbsp;million of vendor advertising reimbursements earned in fiscal 2003 from selling, general, and
administrative expense. The fiscal 2003 impact on income before cumulative effect of change in accounting principle was a charge of $1.5&nbsp;million, or $0.06 per diluted share. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
accordance with the provisions of Issue 02-16, vendor advertising allowances which exceed specific, incremental and identifiable costs incurred in relation to the
advertising and promotional events we conduct for our vendors are to be classified as a reduction in the purchase price of merchandise and recognized in income as the merchandise is sold. The amount
of vendor allowances to be recorded as a reduction of inventory was determined by calculating the ratio of vendor allowances in excess of specific, incremental and identifiable advertising and
promotional costs to merchandise purchases. We then applied this ratio to the value of inventory in determining the amount of the vendor reimbursements to be recorded as a reduction to inventory
reflected on the balance sheet. This methodology resulted in a $7.6&nbsp;million reduction in inventory as of February&nbsp;3, 2002, the date of adoption of Issue 02-16. The
$7.6&nbsp;million, $4.8&nbsp;million net of tax, is recorded as a cumulative effect of accounting change in fiscal year 2003. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, the methodology resulted in
$10.0&nbsp;million recorded as a reduction of inventory. </FONT></P>

to adoption of Issue 02-16, all vendor advertising allowances were recognized as an offset to selling, general and administrative expenses. These allowances exceeded
the specific, incremental costs of the advertising and promotional events conducted by us. The portion of the allowances in excess of the specific, incremental costs was recorded as an offset to other
operating expenses within selling, general and administrative expenses. These other operating expenses, which were incurred to support advertising and promotional expenses, included such items as:
marketing and merchandise department expenses to develop, promote and manage the events; direct store and store supervisory payroll expenses to implement, manage and monitor the events; distribution
expenses associated with receiving and shipping of materials necessary for the events; and corporate expenses related to the design, production and maintenance of Internet advertising events. </FONT></P>

in the second quarter of fiscal 2003, Electronics Boutique changed the income statement classification for pre-owned merchandise trade-in activity to
be consistent with industry practice. Previously, we recorded a reduction to both revenue and cost of goods sold for the cost of the pre-owned merchandise accepted for trade. The
reclassification of these transactions increased both revenues and cost of goods sold by $36.5&nbsp;million and $50.1&nbsp;million in fiscal years 2001 and 2002, respectively. There was no impact
on operating income or net income for any period as a result of this reclassification. </FONT></DD></DL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Fiscal 2003 Compared to Fiscal 2002  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net sales increased by 23.6% from $1,059.3&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $1,309.2&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. The increase in net sales was primarily
attributable to the additional sales volume from 270 new stores, approximately $102.0&nbsp;million, opened during fiscal 2003 and a comparable store sales increase of 8.3%, or $84.8&nbsp;million.
The increase was driven by continuing strong sales of Sony's PlayStation 2 software, as well as a full year of sales from Nintendo's GameCube and Microsoft's Xbox which were introduced in
November&nbsp;2001, and Nintendo's Game Boy Advance which was introduced in June&nbsp;2001. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management
fees increased 28.3% from $5.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $7.6&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. The increase in management fees earned in fiscal 2003 was primarily due to
an increase in Game Group's sales along with a more favorable currency exchange rate between the British pound and U.S. dollar in fiscal 2003. In addition we earned $150,000 in management fees from
Sports Collectibles Acquisition Corporation ("SCAC") in fiscal 2003. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cost
of goods sold increased by 17.5% from $826.6&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $971.2&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased from
78.0% in fiscal 2002 to 74.2% in fiscal 2003. This decrease in cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, was partially due to a reclassification of $42.9&nbsp;million, or 3.3% of net sales,
of fiscal 2003 vendor advertising allowances from selling, general and administrative expense in connection with our change in accounting policy. The balance of the decrease was primarily attributable
to the shift in sales from low margin hardware to higher margin software of 0.7% and reduced freight costs of 0.3%. These improvements were partially offset by a decrease in sales of higher margin PC
product accounting for 0.3%. Cost of goods sold does not include purchasing and distribution center operating costs of approximately $15.3&nbsp;million in fiscal </FONT></P>

2003 and $13.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002, which are included in selling, general and administrative costs. Accordingly, our cost of goods sold may not be comparable to the cost of goods sold of
other retailers. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Selling,
general and administrative expense increased 49.1% from $179.5&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $267.6&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. Of the $88.1&nbsp;million increase,
$45.3&nbsp;million, or 3.4% of total revenues, was attributable to the reclassification of vendor advertising allowances in connection with our change in accounting policy. The remaining
$42.8&nbsp;million of the increase was due to the increase in our domestic and international stores base and the associated increases in store expenses of $35.5&nbsp;million and headquarter
expenses of $7.9&nbsp;million, which was partially offset by an increase in net promotional and marketing reimbursements of $1.3&nbsp;million prior to the reclassification. As a percentage of
total revenues, selling, general and administrative expense increased from 16.8% in fiscal 2002 to 20.3% in fiscal 2003. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Depreciation
and amortization expense increased by 14.0%, from $19.8&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $22.5&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. The increase was primarily attributable to
capitalized expenditures for leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures for new store openings, remodeling of existing stores, and capital improvements, furniture and fixtures and computer
software at corporate headquarters. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
fiscal 2002, the restructuring and asset impairment charge of $12.6&nbsp;million resulted from our adoption of a plan to close the operations of all 29 EB Kids stores and sell the
22 store BC Sports Collectibles business. The charge represents a $3.5&nbsp;million write down of store leasehold improvements, a $2.3&nbsp;million write down of store furniture, fixtures and
equipment and $6.7&nbsp;million in lease termination costs. In fiscal 2003, the $2.6&nbsp;million net reversal of the restructuring and asset impairment charge resulted primarily from store lease
related accruals that were not necessary due to the terms of the sale of the BC Sports Collectibles business. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Operating
income increased by 117.0%, from $26.8&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $58.1&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. As a percentage of total revenues, operating income increased from
2.5% in fiscal 2002 to 4.4% in fiscal 2003. Excluding the $2.3&nbsp;million charge to cost of goods sold and the $12.6&nbsp;million restructuring and asset impairment charge in fiscal 2002,
operating income would have been $41.7&nbsp;million, or 3.9% of total revenues in fiscal 2002. Excluding the $2.6&nbsp;million reversal of the restructuring and asset impairment charge in fiscal
2003, operating income would have been $55.5&nbsp;million, or 4.2% of total revenues in fiscal 2003. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interest
income, net, decreased by 11.0%, from $1.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $1.7&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. The decrease was due to lower interest rates on
short-term investments. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income
tax expense increased by 104.4%, from $10.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 to $22.4&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003. As a percentage of pre-tax income, income tax expense
decreased from 38.2% in fiscal 2002 to 37.4% in fiscal 2003. Our effective tax rate decreased from the prior year principally as a result of an increase in operations in foreign jurisdictions that
have a lower tax rate than the United States and an increase in tax-exempt interest income. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
changed our accounting policy with respect to the recording of vendor advertising allowances effective retroactively as of the beginning of fiscal 2003. As a result, we recorded a
non-cash charge of $4.8&nbsp;million, net of income tax, in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 for the cumulative effect of the change on fiscal years prior to fiscal 2003. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Fiscal 2002 Compared to Fiscal 2001  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net sales increased by 31.9%, from $802.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001 to $1,059.3&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002. Fiscal 2001 included 53 weeks of net sales
compared to 52 weeks in fiscal 2002 partially offsetting the increase. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to the additional sales volume from 210 new stores, approximately
$81.0&nbsp;million, opened during fiscal 2002 and a comparable store sales </FONT></P>

increase of 20.8%, or $152.4&nbsp;million. The increase was driven by continuing strong sales of Sony's PlayStation 2 hardware and related software, as well as the introduction of Nintendo's Game

fees increased 33.1% from $4.4&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001 to $5.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002. The increase in management fees earned in fiscal 2002 was due to an
increase in Game Group's sales. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cost
of goods sold increased by 31.8%, from $626.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001 to $826.6&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased from
78.1% in fiscal 2001 to 78.0% in fiscal 2002. The decrease in cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, was primarily attributable to several factors such as increased margins on PC products
and a successful tiered pricing strategy of approximately 1.1%, reduced freight costs of approximately 0.5% and an increase in high margin pre-owned sales of approximately 0.3%. These
improvements were partially offset by the increased sales of low margin hardware sales of approximately 1.6% and the $2.3&nbsp;million or 0.2% charge related to the write-down of
inventory associated with our decision to discontinue our EB Kids operations and sell our BC Sports Collectibles business. Cost of goods sold does not include purchasing and distribution center
operating costs of approximately $13.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 and $12.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001, which are included in our selling, general and administrative costs. Accordingly, our cost
of goods sold may not be comparable to the cost of goods sold of other retailers. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Selling,
general and administrative expense increased 24.2%, from $144.5&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001 to $179.5&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002. The $35.0&nbsp;million increase was
primarily attributable to the increase in our domestic and international stores base and the associated increases in store expenses of $31.9&nbsp;million, headquarter expenses of $7.4&nbsp;million
and distribution expenses of $0.8&nbsp;million, which was partially offset by an increase in promotional and marketing reimbursements of $5.1&nbsp;million. As a percentage of total revenues,
selling, general and administrative expense decreased from 17.9% in fiscal 2001 to 16.8% in fiscal 2002. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenues
was primarily attributable to the increase in comparable store sales. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Depreciation
and amortization expense increased by 24.6%, from $15.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001 to $19.8&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002. The increase was primarily attributable to
capitalized expenditures for leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures for new store openings, remodeling of existing stores, and capital improvements, furniture and fixtures and computer
software at the corporate headquarters. In addition, in fiscal 2002 we had a full year of depreciation, or an increase of $670,000 over the prior year, on capital expenditures we made in fiscal 2001
for the purchases of our corporate headquarters and distribution facility in West Chester, Pennsylvania, the relocation to a larger distribution facility in Louisville, Kentucky, and the construction
of new distribution and office facilities in Australia and Canada. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
restructuring and asset impairment charge of $12.6&nbsp;million resulted from our adoption of a plan to close the operations of all 29 EB Kids stores and sell the 22 store BC

$6.7&nbsp;million in lease termination costs. </FONT></P>

income increased by 33.8%, from $20.0&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001 to $26.8&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002. As a percentage of total revenues, operating income increased from
2.4% in fiscal 2001 to 2.5% in 2002. Excluding the $2.3&nbsp;million charge to cost of goods sold and the $12.6&nbsp;million restructuring and asset impairment charge, operating income for fiscal
2002 would have been $41.7&nbsp;million, or 3.9% of total revenues. </FONT></P>

income of $1.6&nbsp;million was recorded in fiscal 2001. This income was the result of a termination fee on the acquisition of Funco,&nbsp;Inc. of $3.5&nbsp;million, net of

in the second quarter of fiscal 2003, Electronics Boutique changed the income statement classification for pre-owned merchandise trade-in activity to
be consistent with industry practice. Previously, we recorded a reduction to both revenue and cost of goods sold for the cost of the pre-owned merchandise accepted for trade. The
reclassification of these transactions increased both revenues and cost of goods sold by $9.8&nbsp;million and $20.0&nbsp;million in the first quarters of fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003,
respectively. There was no impact on operating income or net income as a result of this reclassification.

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
$1.9&nbsp;million of operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 includes a $508,000 pre-tax restructuring reversal ($314,000
after-tax, or $0.01 per diluted share). This reversal related primarily to reversals of lease related accruals for the EB Kids stores. The $5.7&nbsp;million of operating income in the
third quarter of fiscal 2003 includes a $2.2&nbsp;million pre-tax restructuring reversal ($1.4&nbsp;million after-tax, or $0.05 per diluted share). This reversal related to
store lease accruals that were not necessary due to the terms of the sale of the BC Sports Collectibles business. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
$28.0&nbsp;million of operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 includes a $14.9&nbsp;million pre-tax charge ($9.2&nbsp;million after-tax,
or $0.35 per diluted share) related to costs associated with our decision to close our EB Kids operations and sell our BC Sports Collectibles business. The pre-tax charge was recorded as
follows: $2.3&nbsp;million related to a write-down of inventory within cost of goods sold and $12.6&nbsp;million as a restructuring and asset impairment charge. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Liquidity and Capital Resources  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have historically financed operations through a combination of cash generated from operations, equity offerings and bank debt. On August&nbsp;14, 2001, we
completed a public offering of 4,600,000 shares of common stock. Of the 4,600,000 shares sold, 2,500,000 shares were for the account of the Electronics Boutique and 2,100,000 shares were for the
account of EB Nevada&nbsp;Inc., a selling shareholder controlled
by the Kim family. The transaction resulted in net proceeds (after offering expenses) to us of approximately $68.2&nbsp;million. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
generated $27.1&nbsp;million in cash from operations in fiscal 2003 and $31.4&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002. The $27.1&nbsp;million of cash generated from operations in fiscal
2003 was primarily the result of $32.6&nbsp;million in net income, $23.9&nbsp;million in non-cash charges to net income, an increase of $8.2&nbsp;million in accrued expenses and a
$6.1&nbsp;million increase in income taxes payable, partially offset by a $38.5&nbsp;million increase in merchandise inventory, net of accounts payable, a $2.1&nbsp;million increase in accounts
receivable, a $1.6&nbsp;million increase in prepaid expenses, and a $1.6 increase in other long-term assets. In fiscal 2003, the $38.5&nbsp;million increase in inventory, net of
accounts payable, was due to an increased store base coupled with slower than expected holiday sales. The $8.2&nbsp;million increase in accrued expenses was primarily due to an increased store base
and an increase in customer liabilities. The $31.4&nbsp;million of cash generated from operations in fiscal 2002 was primarily the result of $17.7&nbsp;million of net income, $10.2&nbsp;million
of non-cash charges to net income, a $32.8&nbsp;million increase in accounts payable, an increase of $10.2&nbsp;million in accrued expenses and deferred rent, and a
$14.1&nbsp;million increase in taxes payable, partially offset by a $3.6&nbsp;million increase in accounts receivable, a $47.0&nbsp;million increase in merchandise inventories, a
$2.3&nbsp;million increase in prepaid expenses, and a $0.7&nbsp;million increase in other long-term assets. In fiscal 2002, merchandise inventories and related accounts payable
increased primarily due to the higher average cost of products associated with the new console systems introduced in the year and also due to a 27% increase in our store base over the prior year. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
made capital expenditures of $35.8&nbsp;million in fiscal 2003, primarily to open new stores, to remodel existing stores, to rebrand 96 existing stores to the new EB Games name, and
to enhance the inventory system in the Louisville distribution center. In fiscal 2003, we also made investments of $1.6&nbsp;million to acquire additional interests in our European subsidiaries and
to acquire a five store retail chain in the U.S. We made capital expenditures of $23.7&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002, primarily to open new stores, to remodel existing stores, to purchase and install
a new inventory system in the Louisville distribution center and to renovate and expand the Pennsylvania corporate headquarters. In fiscal 2002, we also made investments of $9.2&nbsp;million to
acquire various assets and businesses in several European countries including 32 retail stores, distribution centers, and mail order and Internet businesses. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have a $50&nbsp;million asset based revolving credit facility with Fleet Capital Corp. The revolving credit facility has been renewed for a one-year term expiring on
March&nbsp;16, 2004. Interest accrues on borrowings at a per annum rate equal to either LIBOR plus 250 basis points or Fleet's base rate of interest, at our option. The revolving credit facility is
secured by certain assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, fixtures and equipment. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, we had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Letters
of credit outstanding with various financial institutions were $1.8&nbsp;million and $694,000 at February&nbsp;2, 2002 and February&nbsp;1, 2003, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
believe that cash generated from our operating activities and available bank borrowings will be sufficient to fund our operations and store expansion programs for the next fiscal
year. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Transactions with Affiliates  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In fiscal 1996, The Electronics Boutique,&nbsp;Inc. entered into a services agreement with Game Group (formerly The Electronics Boutique Plc) to provide
consulting, management, training, and advertising assistance, which expires in January&nbsp;2006. The agreement was assigned to EB Services Company. The agreement prohibits us from competing in the
United Kingdom during the term of the agreement, and for one year after its termination. Game Group is responsible for the payment of fees, payable, at our option, in cash or Game Group stock, equal
to 1.0% of Game Group's adjusted sales, plus a bonus calculated on the basis of net income in excess of a pre-established target set by Game Group. The management fee receivable at
February&nbsp;2, 2002 was $573,000 and at February&nbsp;1, 2003 was $605,000; both were included in accounts receivable-trade and vendors. Management fees received from Game Group for fiscal 2001,
fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003 were $4.4&nbsp;million, $6.0&nbsp;million and $7.4&nbsp;million, respectively. Additionally, the agreement provides that EB Services is to be reimbursed by Game Group
for all reasonable travel and subsistence expenses incurred during performance of the agreement. At February&nbsp;2, 2002 and February&nbsp;1, 2003, there were no outstanding balances due from
Game Group. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
November&nbsp;2, 2002, we sold our BC Sports Collectibles business to SCAC for $2.2&nbsp;million in cash and the assumption of lease related liabilities in excess of
$13&nbsp;million. The purchaser, SCAC, is owned by the family of James Kim, our Chairman. The transaction included the sale of all assets of the business including inventory, intellectual property
and furniture, fixtures and equipment, and transitional services which were provided by us to SCAC for a six-month period after the closing for an additional $300,000. As of
February&nbsp;1, 2003, $150,000 of the services agreement has been earned and recognized as income. The transaction was negotiated and approved by a committee of our Board of Directors comprised
solely of independent directors with the assistance of an investment banking firm engaged to solicit offers for the BC Sports Collectibles business. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Recent Accounting Pronouncements  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In August&nbsp;2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Standards ("SFAS") No.&nbsp;143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." This statement
establishes standards for accounting for an obligation associated with the retirement of a long-lived asset. The statement is effective for our fiscal year ending January&nbsp;31, 2004.
We are finalizing our review of this statement and are not expecting a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
November&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness
to Others," an interpretation of FASB Statements No.&nbsp;5, 57 and 107 and a rescission of FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;34. This Interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a
guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under guarantees issued. The Interpretation also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at inception of a
guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of the Interpretation are applicable to guarantees issued or modified after
December&nbsp;31, 2002 and are not expected to have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements. The disclosure requirements of this interpretation were effective on
December&nbsp;31, 2002. The disclosure requirements have been adopted and are included in Note&nbsp;1 to the consolidated financial statements, "Guarantees". </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
December&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued Statement No.&nbsp;148 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." This statement amends FASB Statement No.&nbsp;123 to provide alternative
methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. We adopted the disclosure requirement in this
Form&nbsp;10-K. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
January&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" which addresses consolidation by businesses of variable interest
entities. We do not anticipate any impact from this interpretation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our significant accounting policies can be found in Note&nbsp;1 to the consolidated
financial statements. We consider the following policies to be most critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Inventory Valuation  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The cost is determined principally by a weighted-average method. The weighted-average cost
method attaches a cost to each SKU, and is a blended average of the original purchase price and those of subsequent purchases or other cost adjustments throughout the life cycle of that SKU. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Inherent
in the video game business is the risk of obsolete inventory. As the new generation of products is introduced, demand for the prior generation decreases, thus reducing interest
and value of the older games. Some vendors offer us credit to reduce the cost of products that are selling more slowly thus allowing for a reduction in the selling price and reducing the possibility
for items to become obsolete. We monitor the aging of our inventory by item and provide a reserve for product that is considered "slow moving", using an established formula based on current inventory
and a trailing sales history. We also monitor the difference between the selling ("market") price of each item and its cost and provide a reserve for any differences below such cost. </FONT></P>

<A NAME="page_dk1176_1_31"> </A>
<BR>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
perform regular physical inventories and cycle counts in both our stores and distribution centers to adjust inventory balances and account for shrink and damaged product. An accrual
for estimated loss is recorded between the timing of these counts. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Reserves
of $2.7&nbsp;million and $2.9&nbsp;million were recorded against inventory as of February&nbsp;2, 2002 and February&nbsp;1, 2003, respectively. Management believes its
inventory valuation system results in carrying inventory at the lower of cost or market. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Revenue recognition and Related Policies  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We derive revenue primarily from two sources: (i)&nbsp;product revenue, which includes the retail sale of merchandise inventory, warranties, and shipping and
handling fees and (ii)&nbsp;management services revenue. Sales are recorded net of estimated amounts for sales returns and other allowances. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Retail
sales are recognized as revenue at the point of sale. Mail order and Internet sales are recognized as revenue upon delivery to and acceptance by the customer. Revenues from
shipping and handling are recorded in revenue and recognized upon shipment. Warranty revenue is amortized over the life of the warranty contract. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
also engage in the sale and trading of pre-owned video game products. Effective in the second quarter of fiscal 2003, Electronics Boutique changed the income statement
classification for pre-owned merchandise trade-in activity to be consistent with industry practice. Previously, we recorded a reduction to both revenue and cost of goods sold
for the cost of the pre-owned merchandise accepted for trade. The reclassification of these transactions increased both revenues and cost of goods sold by $36.5&nbsp;million for the
fifty-three week period ended February&nbsp;3, 2001 and $50.1&nbsp;million for the fifty-two week period ended February&nbsp;2, 2002. There was no impact on operating income or net
income for any period as a result of this reclassification. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revenues
for management services are recorded as earned. In fiscal 2003, all management fees earned were derived under service agreements with Game Group and SCAC. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Restructuring Costs  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In February&nbsp;2002, we announced our plan to close all of our 29 EB Kids stores and sell our 22 store BC Sports Collectibles business. In fiscal 2002, we
recorded a restructuring and asset impairment charge of $12.6&nbsp;million. The charge represents a $3.5&nbsp;million write down of store leasehold improvements, a $2.3&nbsp;million write down
of store furniture, fixtures and equipment and $6.7&nbsp;million in lease termination costs. In fiscal 2003, a $2.6&nbsp;million net reversal of the restructuring and asset impairment charge
resulted primarily from store lease related accruals that were not necessary due to the terms of the sale of the BC Sports Collectibles business. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective
as of the close of business on November&nbsp;2, 2002, we closed on the sale transaction of the BC Sports Collectibles business to SCAC for $2.2&nbsp;million in cash and the
assumption of the lease related liabilities for each of its 22 stores. The family of James Kim, who is Chairman of Electronics Boutique and a significant investor in our outstanding common stock, owns
SCAC. The transaction included the sale of all assets of the business including inventory, intellectual property and furniture, fixtures and equipment, and transitional services which were provided to
SCAC for a six-month period after the closing for an additional $300,000. Subsequent to year end, all of the store leases have been assigned to SCAC. We remain contingently liable for
these leases and Mr.&nbsp;Kim has entered into an Indemnification Agreement with us for these leases. The purchase agreement provides SCAC the right, exercisable at any time after the second
anniversary of the closing date, to assign back to us two of the store leases. We have retained an accrual of $204,000 for the estimated lease termination costs related to this option. These actual
costs could be higher than this amount. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Income Taxes  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are subject to income tax in many jurisdictions, including the United States, states and localities, and internationally. Income taxes are calculated in
accordance with SFAS No.&nbsp;109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the use of the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the difference
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Inherent in the measurement of deferred balances are certain judgments and
interpretations of enacted tax law and published guidance with respect to applicability to our operations. Significant examples of this concept include capitalization policies for various tangible and
intangible costs, income and expense recognition and inventory valuation methods. We must also assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. To the
extent we believe that recovery is not more likely than not, we must establish valuation allowances. We have valuation allowances of $534,000 and $546,000 as of February&nbsp;2, 2002 and
February&nbsp;1, 2003, respectively, due to uncertainties related to our ability to utilize the net operating loss carry forwards of certain foreign subsidiaries. Future tax expense may be impacted
by this judgment. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Valuation of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets and Goodwill  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles and long-lived assets to determine if any part of the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Factors we consider important when assessing impairment include: </FONT></P>

<UL>
<DL compact>
<DT style='margin-bottom:-11pt;'><FONT SIZE=2>&#149;</FONT></DT><DD><FONT SIZE=2>significant
underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;

market capitalization relative to net book value. </FONT></DD></DL>
</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When
we determine that the carrying value of an identifiable intangible or long-lived asset may not be recoverable based on one or more of the above indicators, we test for
impairment to determine if an impairment charge is needed. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Goodwill
is tested annually for impairment. We use a two-step impairment assessment to determine if an impairment charge is needed. The first step of the goodwill impairment
test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is
considered not impaired, and the second step of the impairment test is not necessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test
is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss if any. Electronics Boutique has completed the annual goodwill impairment test for fiscal 2003 and no charges were required. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net
intangible assets, long-lived assets and goodwill amounted to $122.0&nbsp;million as of February&nbsp;1, 2003. See Note&nbsp;15 to the consolidated financials
statements for more details. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Contractual Obligations  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have certain commitments under our operating leases which are disclosed in Note&nbsp;3 to the consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, for information

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We invest cash balances in excess of operating requirements in short-term investment grade securities, generally with maturities of 90&nbsp;days or
less. In addition, our revolving credit facility provides for borrowings which bear interest at variable rates based on either the bank's base rate or LIBOR plus 250 basis points, at our option. We
had no borrowings outstanding pursuant to the revolving credit facility as of February&nbsp;1, 2003. We believe that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in
interest rates on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows should not be material. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have retail operations in various foreign countries including Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea and Sweden. We are subject to currency
exchange rate and currency devaluation risks due to these operations. Since approximately 81% of our net sales are domestic, we do not believe that currency exchange rate fluctuations will have a
material adverse effect
on our results of operations and financial condition. We routinely enter into forward and cross-currency swap exchange contracts in the regular course of business to manage exposure against foreign
currency fluctuations on intercompany loans, investments in subsidiaries, and accounts payable. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, we have foreign currency forward contracts with a notional amount of
$20.3&nbsp;million and cross-currency swap contracts with a notional amount of $27.4&nbsp;million. The total fair market value of all contracts is a deficit of approximately $4.9&nbsp;million.
Four contracts for $16.7&nbsp;million expire during fiscal 2004 and the remaining contracts for $31.0&nbsp;million expire in future years. We intend to monitor our exposure to these risks and
re-evaluate our hedging strategies as appropriate. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
table below provides information about our derivative financial instruments and other financial instruments by functional currency and presents such information in U.S. dollar
equivalents. The table summarizes information on instruments and transactions that are sensitive to foreign currency exchange rates, including foreign currency forward exchange agreements and cross
currency swap agreements. For foreign currency forward exchange agreements and cross currency swap agreements, the table presents the notional amounts. These notional amounts are generally used to
calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contracts. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>The
Board of Directors and Stockholders<BR>
Electronics Boutique Holdings Corp.: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Electronics Boutique Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries as of February&nbsp;1, 2003 and February&nbsp;2, 2002, and the
related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended February&nbsp;1, 2003. In connection with our audits
of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our
audits. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Electronics Boutique Holdings Corp. and
subsidiaries as of February&nbsp;1, 2003 and February&nbsp;2, 2002 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
February&nbsp;1, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in
relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects, the information set forth therein. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
discussed in Note&nbsp;1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and intangible assets in the year ended
February&nbsp;1, 2003. As discussed in Note&nbsp;2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for consideration received from a vendor in the year ended
February&nbsp;1, 2003. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Description of Business  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Electronics Boutique Holdings Corp. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the "Company") is among the world's largest specialty retailers of video game hardware
and software, PC entertainment software and related accessories and products. The Company operates in only one business segment, as substantially all of its revenues, net income and assets are derived
from these primary products. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company had 737, 937 and 1,145 operating retail stores throughout the United States, Australia, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Puerto Rico, South Korea, and
Sweden at February&nbsp;3, 2001, February&nbsp;2, 2002 and February&nbsp;1, 2003, respectively. Total revenues from the U.S. and foreign operations were 86% and 14%, respectively in fiscal 2001
and fiscal 2002, and 81% and 19%, respectively in fiscal 2003. Long-lived assets located in the United States and foreign countries were 79% and 21%, respectively in fiscal 2002, and 74%
and 26%, respectively in fiscal 2003. The Company is subject to the risks inherent in conducting business across national boundaries. The Company also operates a mail order business and sells its
products via the Internet. Approximately 32%, 38% and 39% of fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003 sales, respectively, were generated from merchandise purchased from its three largest vendors. The
Company is highly dependent on the introduction by its vendors of new and enhanced video game and PC hardware and software. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Fiscal Year-End  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest January&nbsp;31. Accordingly, the financial statements for the years ended February&nbsp;2, 2002 ("fiscal 2002")
and February&nbsp;1, 2003 ("fiscal 2003") each include 52 weeks of operations. Financial statements for the year ended February&nbsp;3, 2001 ("fiscal 2001") include 53 weeks of operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Principles of Consolidation  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The consolidated financial statements include the financial position and results of operations of Electronics Boutique Holding Corp. and its subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Revenue Recognition  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Retail sales are recognized as revenue at the point of sale. Mail order and Internet sales are recognized as revenue upon delivery to and acceptance by the
customer. Warranty revenue is amortized over the life of the warranty. Management fees are recognized in the period that related services are provided. Sales are recorded net of estimated amounts for
sales returns and other allowances. Shipping and handling fee income from the mail order and Internet operations is recognized as net sales. The Company records shipping and handling costs in cost of
goods sold. The Company engages in the sale and trading of pre-owned video game products. See Note&nbsp;13 for additional information. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Cost of Goods Sold  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cost of goods sold includes the following: cost of merchandise purchased from its vendors, freight cost, purchase discounts, vendor advertising allowances in
excess of incremental related advertising expenses, volume purchase rebates, and inventory shrinkage expense. The Company's gross margins </FONT></P>

may not be comparable to those of other retailers or companies in general due to the items the Company includes in cost of goods sold. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Selling, General and Administrative Expenses  </I></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Selling, general and administrative costs include the following: retail store operating costs, distribution center operating costs, marketing and promotional
expenses net of vendor reimbursements for these expenses, and corporate operating expenses. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Vendor Programs  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company receives vendor allowances for certain events offered to its vendors. These events include items such as product catalog advertising,
in-store display promotions, Internet advertising, co-op print advertising, product training and promotion at the Company's trade show and inclusion in its
vendor-of-the-month program. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prior
to fiscal 2003, all vendor advertising allowances were recognized as an offset to selling, general and administrative expenses. In fiscal 2003, the Company adopted the provision of
Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 02-16, Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor, effective retroactively as of the beginning of fiscal
2003. In accordance with the provisions of Issue 02-16, vendor advertising allowances which exceed specific, incremental and identifiable costs incurred in relation to the advertising and
promotional events offered by the Company to its vendors are to be classified as a reduction in the purchase price of merchandise. See Note&nbsp;2 for further discussion. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
vendor allowances reflected in the financial statements were $45.8&nbsp;million, $49.1&nbsp;million and $54.1&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003,
respectively. Advertising expenses, excluding the vendor allowances, were $10.1&nbsp;million, $8.2&nbsp;million and $11.3&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Cash and Cash Equivalents  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Merchandise Inventories  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Merchandise is valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined principally by a weighted-average method. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Property and Equipment  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset using the straight-line method.
The estimated useful lives are as follows: </FONT></P>

Company capitalizes significant costs to acquire management information systems software and significant costs of system improvements. Computer software costs are amortized over
estimated useful lives of three to five years. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Deferred Revenue  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amounts received under the Company's pre-sell program are recorded as a liability. Revenue is recognized when the customer receives the related

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Goodwill and Other Intangibles  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In July&nbsp;2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement No.&nbsp;141, "Business Combinations," and Statement No.&nbsp;142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Statement No.&nbsp;141 requires that intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet certain criteria to be recognized and
reported apart from goodwill and should be used for all business
combinations initiated after June&nbsp;30, 2001. Statement No.&nbsp;142 states that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested for
impairment at least annually. The adoption of Statement No.&nbsp;141 by the Company in fiscal 2002 did not have a material impact on its financial statements. See Note&nbsp;15, "Goodwill and Other
Intangibles", for disclosures required by Statement No.&nbsp;142. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Other Assets  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other assets consist principally of life insurance programs for certain key executives and security deposits. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Guarantees  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of January&nbsp;1, 2003, the Company has adopted FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees,
Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness to Others." This Interpretation requires certain disclosures be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements and requires that
liabilities for guarantees entered into on or after January&nbsp;1, 2003, be recorded at fair value. The Company remains contingently liable for the 22 BC Sports Collectibles store leases assigned
to Sports Collectibles Acquisition Corporation ("SCAC") which are discussed further in Note&nbsp;6. Mr.&nbsp;Kim has entered into an indemnification agreement with the Company with respect to
these leases. If SCAC were to default on these lease obligations, the Company would be liable to the landlords for up to $13&nbsp;million in minimum rent and landlord charges. Due to
Mr.&nbsp;Kim's agreement to indemnify the Company for any costs arising from the BC Sports Collectibles leases, no accrual was recorded for this potential liability. The purchase agreement provides
SCAC the right, exercisable at any time after the second anniversary of the closing date, to assign back to the Company two of the store leases. The Company has an accrual of $204,000 for the
estimated lease termination costs related to this option. See Note&nbsp;6, "Related Party Transactions," for more details on the BC Sports Collectibles sale. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Leasing Expenses  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease when lease agreements provide for increasing fixed rentals.
The difference between lease expense recognized and actual payments made is included in deferred rent and prepaid expenses on the balance sheet. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Preopening Costs and Advertising Expense  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Preopening and start-up costs for new stores are charged to the store in the first month of operations. Costs of advertising and sales promotion
programs are charged to operations, offset by direct vendor reimbursements, as incurred. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Foreign Currency  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The accounts of the foreign subsidiaries are translated in accordance with Statement No.&nbsp;52, "Foreign Currency Translation", which requires that assets and
liabilities of international operations be translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. The results of the operations are translated using an average exchange rate for the
year. The effects of the rate fluctuations in translating assets and liabilities of international operations into U.S. dollars are accumulated and reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income
in the statements of stockholders' equity. Transaction gains and losses are included in net income. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
June&nbsp;1998, the FASB issued Statement No.&nbsp;133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" as amended by Statement 137 and Statement 138. This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in
the statement of financial position and measures those instruments at fair value. As required under Statement 137, the Company adopted Statement 133 as amended in fiscal year 2002. The cumulative
effect of the adoption of this standard on February&nbsp;4, 2001 did not materially impact the Company's results of operations, financial condition or long-term liquidity. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Market
risks relating to the Company's foreign operations result primarily from changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company routinely enters into forward and cross-currency swap
exchange contracts in the regular course of business to manage its exposure against foreign currency fluctuations on intercompany loans, investments in subsidiaries, and accounts payable. These
contracts vary in length of duration. On February&nbsp;1, 2003, the Company had a total of seven forward contracts and 27 cross-currency swap contracts. The forward contracts had a notional amount
of $20.3&nbsp;million and the cross-currency swap contracts had a notional amount of $27.4&nbsp;million. The total fair market value of all contracts at February&nbsp;1, 2003 was a deficit of
approximately $4.9&nbsp;million, which is recorded within other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. On February&nbsp;2, 2002, the Company had a total of seven
forward contracts and seven cross-currency swap contracts. The forward contracts had a notional amount of $17.3&nbsp;million and the cross-currency swap contracts had a notional amount of
$10.8&nbsp;million. The total fair market value of all contracts at February&nbsp;2, 2002 was a gain of approximately $300,000. These contracts were purchased as fair value hedges of intercompany
loans and investments in subsidiaries, and cash flow hedges of trade payables. The Company recorded an immaterial net loss related to hedge ineffectiveness in fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003. Changes in
the fair value of derivatives are recorded in the same income statement or balance sheet line as the change in value of the underlying hedged item. Four contracts for $16.8&nbsp;million expire
during fiscal year 2004 and the remaining contracts for $31.0&nbsp;million expire in future years. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Income Taxes  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company is subject to federal and state income taxes as a C Corporation. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Net Income Per Share  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basic income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted income per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average common shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents related to stock options. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Use of Estimates  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>Fair Value of Financial Instruments  </I></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's financial instruments are accounts receivable, accounts payable, life insurance policies, and foreign exchange contracts. The carrying value of
accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of life insurance policies included in other assets approximates
fair value based on estimates received from insurance companies. The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts is included in the foreign currency note section above. </FONT></P>

Company recorded a cumulative effect of accounting change of $7.6&nbsp;million, $4.8&nbsp;million net of income tax, for the impact of this adoption on prior fiscal years. As of
February&nbsp;1, 2003, $10.0&nbsp;million of the Company's vendor advertising allowances has been recorded as a reduction of inventory and will be recognized in cost of sales as inventory is sold.
This adoption has also resulted in the reclassification of $45.3&nbsp;million of vendor advertising reimbursements earned in fiscal 2003 from selling, general, and administrative expense. The fiscal
2003 impact on income before cumulative effect of change in accounting principle was a charge of $1.5&nbsp;million, or $0.06 per diluted share. </FONT></P>

accordance with the provisions of Issue 02-16, vendor advertising allowances which exceed specific, incremental and identifiable costs incurred in relation to the
advertising and promotional events the Company conducts for its vendors are to be classified as a reduction in the purchase price of merchandise and recognized in income as the merchandise is sold.
The amount of vendor allowances to
be recorded as a reduction of inventory was determined by calculating the ratio of vendor allowances in excess of specific, incremental and identifiable advertising and promotional costs to
merchandise purchases. The Company then applied this ratio to the value of inventory in determining the amount of the vendor reimbursements to be recorded as a reduction to inventory reflected on the
balance sheet. This methodology resulted in a $7.6&nbsp;million reduction in inventory as of February&nbsp;3, 2002, the date of adoption of Issue 02-16. The $7.6&nbsp;million,
$4.8&nbsp;million net of tax, is recorded as a cumulative effect of accounting change in fiscal year 2003. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, the methodology resulted in $10.0&nbsp;million recorded as
a reduction of inventory. </FONT></P>

total future minimum lease payments include lease commitments for new retail locations not in operation at February&nbsp;1, 2003, and exclude contingent rentals based upon sales
volume and owner expense reimbursements. The terms of the operating leases for the retail locations provide that, in addition to the minimum lease payments, the Company is required to pay additional
rent to the extent retail sales, as defined, exceed amounts set forth in the lease agreements and to reimburse the landlord for the Company's proportionate share of the landlord's costs and expenses
incurred in the maintenance and operation of the shopping mall. Contingent rentals were approximately $10.0&nbsp;million, $12.5&nbsp;million and $12.2&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002
and fiscal 2003, respectively. Rent expense, including contingent rental amounts, was approximately $58.5&nbsp;million, $72.8&nbsp;million and $85.1&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002 and

2003. The facility is subject to an immaterial annual commitment fee. The revolving credit facility was renewed for a one-year term expiring on March&nbsp;16, 2004. Interest accrues on
borrowings at a per annum rate equal to either LIBOR plus 250 basis points or the bank's base rate of interest, at the Company's option. The revolving credit agreement contains restrictive covenants
regarding transactions with affiliates, the payment of dividends, and other financial and non-financial matters and is secured by certain assets, including accounts receivable, inventory,
fixtures and equipment. If the Kim family does not own, indirectly through EB Nevada, at least 25% of the Company's outstanding capital stock, the Company may be declared in default under the credit
facility. There was no outstanding balance at February&nbsp;2, 2002 and February&nbsp;1, 2003 on this facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In fiscal 1996, EB, a predecessor to the Company, entered into a services agreement with Game Group to provide consulting, management, training, and advertising
assistance which expires on January&nbsp;31, 2006. The agreement was assigned to EB Services. The agreement prohibits the Company from competing in the United Kingdom during the term of the
agreement, and for one year after its termination. The agreement provides for a fee to be paid to EB Services based on a formula of 1% of Game Group's adjusted sales and if budgeted profits are
exceeded for the year, a bonus equal to 25% of such excess. The management fee receivable at February&nbsp;2, 2002 was $573,000 and at February&nbsp;1, 2003 was $605,000; both were included in
accounts receivable&#151;trade and vendors. Management fees received from Game Group for fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003 was $4.4&nbsp;million, $6.0&nbsp;million and
$7.4&nbsp;million, respectively. Additionally, the agreement provides that EB Services is to be reimbursed by Game Group for all reasonable travel and subsistence expenses incurred during
performance of the agreement. At February&nbsp;2, 2002 and February&nbsp;1, 2003, there were no outstanding balances due from Game Group. </FONT></P>

November&nbsp;2, 2002, the Company sold its BC Sports Collectibles business to SCAC for $2.2&nbsp;million in cash and the assumption of lease related liabilities in excess of
$13&nbsp;million. The purchaser, SCAC, is owned by the family of James Kim, the Company's Chairman. The transaction included the sale of all assets of the business including inventory, intellectual
property and furniture, fixtures and equipment, and transitional services which were provided by the Company to SCAC for a six-month period after the closing for an additional $300,000. As
of February&nbsp;1, 2003, $150,000 of the services agreement has been earned and recognized as income. Subsequent to year end, all of the 22 store leases have been assigned to SCAC. The transaction
was negotiated and approved by a committee of the Company's Board of Directors comprised solely of independent directors with the assistance of an investment banking firm engaged to solicit offers for
the BC Sports Collectibles business. </FONT></P>

and can purchase shares quarterly through payroll deductions at the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the stock at the commencement or end of the offering period. The Purchase Plan permits
eligible associates to purchase common stock through payroll deductions for up to 10% of qualified compensation. As of February&nbsp;1, 2003, approximately 958,000 shares remain available for
issuance under the Purchase Plan. The weighted-average fair value, net of the 15% discount, of the shares purchased by employees in fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003 was $15.28, $19.08 and
$20.27, respectively. </FONT></P>

Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition,
option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted
during fiscal 2001, fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003 was $6.94, $11.00 and $17.09 respectively. </FONT></P>
