, AIDAW), today announced financial results for its third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1995.

Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 were $5,080,320 compared to $5,780,896 reported for the same period a year ago. The net loss for the period was $117,710, or ($0.03) per share, based on 3,800,000 weighted average common shares outstanding, compared to a net loss of $83,540, or ($0.04) per share, based on 2,000,000 weighted average common shares outstanding, for the third quarter ended June 30, 1994.

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were $14,705,527 compared to $18,146,008 reported for the same year ago period. The net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 1995 was $447,985, or $(0.14) per share, based on 3,147,253 weighted average common shares outstanding, compared to a net loss of $32,594, or ($0.02) per share, based on 2,000,000 weighted average common shares outstanding, for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.

The increase in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 reflect the Company's April 1995 initial public offering of 1,800,000 common shares.

Commenting on the results, Philip L. Stephen, chairman and chief executive officer of Aid Auto Stores, Inc., stated, "The Company's short term revenue growth continued to be negatively impacted, as expected, by that part of our planned Superstore su·per·store

 expansion strategy, which includes a decision to generally not grant new franchises which results in a loss of sales to new franchisees. Additionally, by not granting new franchises, the Company does not generate the initial franchise fee, as well as monthly advertising and franchise fees, the initial opening order received from a new franchisee and monthly purchases. Despite the Company's lack of revenue growth, which we anticipate will be a short term problem, we are tremendously pleased with the progress we have made with respect to implementing the Superstore expansion program and, based on the results of our Long Island City Superstore, remain confident that this strategy will firmly position Aid Auto for considerable future revenue and earnings growth."

Mr. Stephen continued, "In connection with our Superstore expansion program, we recently acquired ten Aid Auto Stores from one of our franchisees, nine of which we plan to convert into Superstores This is a list of superstores by country. Multi-national

. The stores, located on Long Island, have combined annual revenues of approximately $11 million. We believe that by turning them into Superstores we can not only enhance the Aid Auto brand name on Long Island, but increase the stores' revenue and earnings growth.
