NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

June 28, 2015

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

Parks! America, Inc. (“Parks!” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated on July 30, 1954 as Painted Desert Uranium & Oil Co., Inc. in Washington State. On October 1, 2002, Painted Desert Uranium & Oil Co., Inc. changed its name to Royal Pacific Resources, Inc. and its corporate domicile to the State of Nevada.

On December 19, 2003, Royal Pacific Resources, Inc. acquired the assets of Great Western Parks LLC pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement that resulted in the Company assuming control and changing the corporate name to Great American Family Parks, Inc. The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse acquisition in which Great Western Parks was considered to be the acquirer of Royal Pacific Resources for reporting purposes. The Company’s common stock outstanding increased from 2,533,000 to 29,600,000 as a result of the acquisition. On June 11, 2008, the Company changed its name from Great American Family Parks, Inc. to Parks! America, Inc.

The Company owns and operates through its wholly owned subsidiaries two regional theme parks and is in the business of acquiring, developing and operating local and regional theme parks and attractions in the United States. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries are Wild Animal Safari, Inc. a Georgia corporation (“Wild Animal – Georgia”) and Wild Animal, Inc., a Missouri corporation (“Wild Animal – Missouri”). Wild Animal – Georgia owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari theme park in Pine Mountain, Georgia (the “Georgia Park”). Wild Animal – Missouri owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari theme park located in Strafford, Missouri (the “Missouri Park”). On June 13, 2005, the Company acquired the Georgia Park and on March 5, 2008, the Company acquired the Missouri Park.

The Parks are open year round but experience increased seasonal attendance during the months of April through August. On a combined basis, net sales for the third and fourth quarter of the last two fiscal years represented approximately 70% to 72% of annual net sales.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation: The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months and nine months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014 are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The information reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods set forth herein. In the opinion of management interim results reflect all normal and recurring adjustments, and are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full fiscal year.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2014.

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries (Wild Animal – Georgia and Wild Animal – Missouri). All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounting Method: The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of accounting.

Estimates and Assumptions: Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.

Fiscal Year End: The Company’s fiscal year-end is the Sunday closest to September 30, and its quarterly close dates are also determined by the Sunday closest to the end of each quarterly reporting period. For the 2015 fiscal year, September 27 will be the last Sunday, and for the 2014 fiscal year, September 28 was the last Sunday. This fiscal calendar aligns the Company’s fiscal periods more closely with the seasonality of its business. The high season typically ends after the Labor Day holiday weekend. The period from October through early March is geared towards maintenance and preparation for the next busy season, which typically begins at Spring Break and runs through Labor Day.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Uncertainties: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The January 9, 2013 refinancing of all the Company’s then outstanding debt lowered the Company’s required annual debt service payments by approximately $174,000, see “NOTE 4. LONG-TERM DEBT” for more information. Management believes this refinancing provides the Company additional margin to continue to fund its operations and meet its debt service obligations. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern during the next twelve months continues to depend on the ability of the Company to generate revenues from operations, to maintain its existing sources of capital and to meet its existing debt service obligations or obtain additional sources of capital. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Reclassifications: Certain accounts and financial statement captions in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statements.

Financial and Concentrations Risk: The Company does not have any concentration or related financial credit risks. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits.

Trade Accounts Receivable: The Parks are cash businesses; therefore, the Company typically carries little or no accounts receivable. Periodically the Company will carry accounts receivable, primarily from animal sales. The Company had no accounts receivable as of June 28, 2015 and September 28, 2014.

Inventory: Inventory consists of park supplies, and is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are reviewed and reconciled annually, because inventory levels turn over rapidly.

Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to forty years. A summary is included below.

		June 28, 2015		September 28, 2014		Depreciable Lives
Land	$	2,507,180	$	2,507,180		not applicable
Buildings and structures		3,176,327		3,108,495		15 - 40 years

Less accumulated depreciation		(2,483,964)		(2,240,214)
Property and equipment, net	$	6,293,885	$	6,117,869

Other Intangible Assets: Other intangible assets include loan fees, franchising fees, and payroll software, which are reported at cost. Loan fees are amortized over the life of the respective loan, currently 20 years for the term loan and seven years for the line-of-credit. See “NOTE 4. LONG-TERM DEBT” for more information. Franchising fees are amortized over a period of 60 months and payroll software over a period of 36 months.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company reviews its major assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If an asset is considered impaired, then impairment will be recognized in an amount determined by the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value.

Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts of financial instruments are considered by management to be their estimated fair values due to their short-term maturities. Securities that are publicly traded are valued at their fair market value based as of the balance sheet date presented.

Revenue Recognition: The major source of income is received from Park admissions. Park revenues from admission fees are recognized upon receipt of the cash at the time of our customers’ visit to the Parks. Park ticket sales are typically not made in advance. Short-term seasonal passes are sold primarily during the summer season and are negligible to our results of operations and are not material. The Company has developed a business of selling surplus animals created from the natural breeding process that occurs within the Parks. All animal sales are reported as a separate line item.

Advertising and Market Development: The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as incurred.

Stock Based Compensation: The Company recognizes stock based compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period associated with the grant. No activity has occurred in relation to stock options during any period presented. The Company awards shares to its Board of Directors for service on the Board. The shares issued to the Board are “restricted” and are not to be re-sold unless an exemption is available, such as the exemption afforded by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company recognizes the expense based on the fair market value at time of the grant. Each director is typically granted 25,000 restricted shares annually, usually near the end of the calendar year.

Income Taxes: The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws. Management periodically reviews the Company’s deferred tax assets to determine whether their value can be realized based on available evidence. A valuation allowance is established when management believes it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the Company’s income tax provision in the period of change.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share: Basic net income (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the exercise of any common share rights unless the exercise becomes anti-dilutive and then only the basic per share amounts are shown in the report.

Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the applicable weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each period.

Dividend Policy: The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: The Company does not expect recently issued accounting standards or interpretations to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

NOTE 3. RESTRICTED CASH

As of February 5, 2015, the Company was required to post a security of $456,492 (the “Security Amount”) in connection with the Company’s appeal of a summary judgment and award of costs more fully described in “NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES” herein. The Company deposited the Security Amount, in cash, in a newly established account with Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio Banking Corporation (“Fifth Third”). On April 8, 2015, Fifth Third issued a “Letter of Credit” equal to the Security Amount to the “Harper Defendants” (as that term is defined in Note 9). The Company anticipates the Letter of Credit will be in place until the appeal of the summary judgment award is resolved. The Company is restricted from using the Security Amount in its Fifth Third Bank deposit account as long as the Letter of Credit remains outstanding.

NOTE 4. LONG-TERM DEBT

On January 9, 2013, the Company completed a refinancing transaction (the “Refinancing Loan”) with Commercial Bank & Trust Company of Troup County (“CB&T”) as lender. The Refinancing Loan was for a principal amount of $3,752,000 and has a 20-year term. The Refinancing Loan bears interest at the rate of Prime Rate plus 2.50% or 5.75% during the first five years of the loan term. Thereafter, the interest rate will be re-priced every five years based on the then-Prime Rate plus 2.50%. During the first four months following the closing of the Refinancing Loan the Company was required to make interest-only payments. The minimum required monthly payment is approximately $26,343 during the first five years of the Refinancing Loan term. The closing costs for the Refinancing Loan totaled $175,369 and are being amortized over the 20-year life of the loan.

As a result of the Refinancing Loan, the Company lowered its anticipated annual debt service payments. Prior to the Refinancing Loan, the Company’s then outstanding mortgages required annual payments totaling $490,000 as compared to new estimated annual payments totaling $316,000, reducing our annual debt service payments by $174,000 compared with the previous year.

Total	$	3,526,053

NOTE 5. LINES OF CREDIT

The Company maintains a $350,000 line of credit (the “LOC”) loan from CB&T for working capital purposes. This LOC has an initial term of seven years, through January 8, 2020, subject to the satisfactory performance by the Company. The LOC interest rate is tied to the prime rate, and has a minimum rate of 5.25%. The closing costs for the LOC totaled $11,482 and are being amortized over the initial seven-year term of the loan. The LOC was not utilized as of June 28, 2015 and September 28, 2014, respectively.

Effective March 13, 2015, the Company established an additional $100,000 line of credit with CB&T for working capital purposes. This line of credit will expire on September 13, 2015, subject to the satisfactory performance by the Company and bears interest at a rate of 5.75%. The closing costs for this line of credit were $1,031. As of June 28, 2015, the Company had not utilized this line of credit.

During the Company’s 2015 and 2014 fiscal years, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the offer of two of the Company’s Directors to loan the Company additional funds to support its seasonal working capital requirements. These loans were made on the same terms and conditions as the LOC with CB&T. As of June 28, 2015, there was an outstanding balance of $25,000 on these Director loans. As of September 28, 2014, there was no outstanding balance against these Director loans.

When applicable, all advances on the Company’s LOCs and Director loans are recorded as current liabilities.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

June 28, 2015

NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES

For the nine month period ended June 28, 2015, the Company reported pre-tax income of $222,091.  For the year ending September 27, 2015, the Company expects to generate pre-tax income and expects to utilize a portion of its Federal net tax operating loss carry-forwards to offset any Federal taxable income in its 2015 fiscal year. The Company expects to generate 2015 fiscal year income that will be subject to State of Georgia income taxes at a rate of approximately 6%.

The cumulative Federal net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $3,951,000 at September 28, 2014 and will expire beginning in the year 2026. The net deferred tax asset generated by the Federal net operating loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $3,951,000 for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, Federal net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In September 2009, the Company filed an action against its former President and CEO in the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada (Parks! America, Inc. vs. Eastland; et al., Case No. 09-A-599668). The Company brought this action in an attempt to obtain a Temporary Restraining Order and injunctive relief against the Eastland Defendants (Former President and CEO Larry Eastland and his related companies) as to the Eastland Defendants attempt to install a new board of directors for the Company. The Temporary Restraining Order was granted, as was the Preliminary Injunction.

 

In June 2012, the Company amended its complaint against the Eastland Defendants to, among other things, add new claims for relief, as well as join as defendants, LEA Capital Advisors, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Eastland (together the Eastland Defendants), and Stanley Harper and Computer Contact Service, Inc., an entity controlled by Mr. Harper (together the Harper Defendants) for breaches of contract and fiduciary duty with regards to the Company’s purchase of TempSERV on September 30, 2007 and its subsequent re-conveyance of TempSERV to Computer Contact Service, Inc. as of January 1, 2009. The Company is seeking damages in excess of $1.8 million.

Discovery was conducted on the claims between the parties, after which the Harper Defendants filed for summary judgment asking that the claims against them be dismissed. After briefing and argument, the Court granted summary judgment in favor of the Harper Defendants. Because one of the contracts involved had a provision for legal fees, the Harper Defendants also filed a motion for legal fees and costs. On October 24, 2014, the Court ordered the Company to pay approximately $304,328 in costs and attorney’s fees in favor of the Harper Defendants.

The Company is in the process of appealing the summary judgment and the award of costs. Although we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit, the Company believes the Court’s summary judgment and award of costs in favor of the Harper Defendants is in error and is vigorously pursuing its position on appeal. However, as the award of legal fees and costs has been granted, the Company recorded a liability for this award as of September 28, 2014. As detailed in “NOTE 3. RESTRICTED CASH”, as of February 5, 2015 the Company was required to post a security in the amount of 150%, or $456,492, of the judgment during its appeal of the summary judgment and award of costs.

The remainder of the District Court case against the Eastland Defendants has been stayed pending the result of the appeal. The Company intends to proceed with its case against the Eastland Defendants regardless of the result of the appeal. If the summary judgment decision is reversed upon appeal, that action will proceed against both the Eastland Defendants and the Harper Defendants.

Except as described above, the Company is not a party to any pending legal proceeding, nor is its property the subject of a pending legal proceeding, that is not in the ordinary course of business or otherwise material to the financial condition of its business. None of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates is involved in a proceeding adverse to its business or has a material interest adverse to its business.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition (“MD&A”) is a supplement to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and provides additional information on the Company’s businesses, current developments, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for the historical information contained herein, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, statements concerning: our business strategy; liquidity and capital expenditures; future sources of revenues and anticipated costs and expenses; and trends in industry activity generally. Such forward-looking statements include, among others, those statements including the words such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "could," "anticipate," "intend," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "goal," or "continue" or similar language or by discussions of our outlook, plans, goals, strategy or intentions.

Our actual results may differ significantly from those projected in the forward-looking statements. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, but not limited to, the risks outlined under "RISK FACTORS", that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. For example, assumptions that could cause actual results to vary materially from future results include, but are not limited to: competition from other parks, weather conditions during our primary tourist season, the price of animal feed and the price of gasoline. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.

The forward-looking statements we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on management’s current views and assumptions regarding future events and speak only as of the date of this report. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting these forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Overview

Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Wild Animal Safari, Inc. a Georgia corporation (“Wild Animal – Georgia”) and Wild Animal, Inc., a Missouri corporation (“Wild Animal – Missouri”), we own and operate two regional theme parks and are in the business of acquiring, developing and operating local and regional theme parks and attractions in the United States. Wild Animal – Georgia owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari theme park located in Pine Mountain, Georgia (the “Georgia Park”). Wild Animal – Missouri owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari theme park located in Strafford, Missouri (the “Missouri Park”). Our Georgia Park and Missouri Park are collectively referred to as our “Parks”.

Our Parks are open year round but experience increased seasonal attendance during the months of April through August. On a combined basis, net sales for the third and fourth quarter of our last two fiscal years represented approximately 70% to 72% of annual net sales.

Our goal is to build a family of theme parks primarily through acquisitions of small, local and regional, privately owned existing parks and to develop a series of compatible, themed attractions. When evaluating possible acquisitions, we rely on the following primary criteria:

·

Properties that have an operating history;

·

Properties that our management team believes have the potential to increase profits and operating efficiencies; and

·

Properties where there is additional, underutilized land available for expansion of operations.

We believe that acquisitions, if any, should not unnecessarily encumber us with additional debt that cannot be justified by current operations. By using a combination of equity, debt and other financing options, we intend to carefully monitor shareholder value in conjunction with the pursuit of growth.

14

---

We may also pursue contract management opportunities for themed attractions owned by third parties.

As we look at our operations as of June 28, 2015, one of our highest priorities is to continue to improve the operating profit at our Missouri Park. Since the acquisition of our Missouri Park in March 2008, we have worked to upgrade the Park’s physical facilities and dramatically improve its concessions. During the three month period ended June 28, 2015, we completed the installation of five amusement park “kiddie” rides at our Missouri Park. These rides are targeted toward families with children between the ages of three and twelve years old. The addition of these rides is a continuation of our ongoing effort to improve the overall guest experience, as well as public perception of our Missouri Park, and it is our belief that the addition of these rides will help increase attendance and average spending per guest visit. We believe that years of operation under the prior owners resulted in negative preconceptions about the condition of our Missouri Park. We will continue to focus our efforts to promote our Missouri Park and make additional improvements as our capital budget allows. We expect that over the course of several years these efforts will ultimately yield favorable results.

Additionally, we are committed to leveraging the strong operating model we have established at our Georgia Park, with a focus on increasing attendance, as well as increasing the average revenue generated per guest visit via concession and gift shop revenues.

On January 9, 2013, we completed a $3,752,000 loan transaction (the “Refinancing Loan”), the proceeds of which were used primarily to refinance our then-outstanding debt and fund $230,000 of new construction and renovations at our Parks.

Our anticipated annual debt service payments were lowered as a result of the Refinancing Loan. Prior to the Refinancing Loan, our then outstanding debt required annual payments totaling $490,000 as compared to new estimated annual payments totaling $316,000, reducing our annual debt service payments by $174,000 compared with the previous year. We anticipate that the reduction of our annual cash requirements for debt service will free up cash flow to fund operations and capital improvements at our Parks.

While the Refinancing Loan provides us with incremental cash flow margin, our current size and operating model leave us little room for error. Any future capital raised by us is likely to result in dilution to existing stockholders. It is possible that cash generated by, or available to, us may not be sufficient to fund our capital and liquidity needs for the near-term.

Results of Operations For the Three Month Period Ended June 28, 2015 as Compared to Three Month Period Ended June 29, 2014

We manage our operations on an individual location basis. Discrete financial information is maintained for each Park and provided to our corporate management for review and as a basis for decision-making. The primary performance measures used to allocate resources are Park earnings before interest and tax expense, and free cash flow. We use this measure of operating profit to gauge segment performance because we believe this measure is the most indicative of performance trends and the overall earnings potential of each reportable segment.

Total Net Sales

Our total net sales for the three month period ended June 28, 2015 increased by $154,125, or 10.5%, to $1,619,751 versus the three month period ended June 29, 2014. Our Georgia Park’s net sales increased by $153,028, or 13.0%, primarily as a result of an increase in attendance. Total net sales for our Missouri Park increased by $1,097, primarily as a result of an increase in attendance, partially offset by a decrease in average revenue per guest. Attendance at our Georgia Park and Missouri Park increased approximately 9.8% and 6.5%, respectively, during the three month period ended June 28, 2015.

15

Segment Operating Margin

Our consolidated segment income from operations was $807,850 for the three month period ended June 28, 2015, an increase of $105,665 compared to segment income from operations of $702,185 during the three month period ended June 29, 2014. This improvement was driven primarily by higher attendance at both our Parks. Our Georgia Park’s segment income from operations was $773,742, an increase of $96,784, as higher attendance revenues were partially offset by higher advertising and other operating expenses. The segment income from operations for our Missouri Park was $34,108, an improvement of $8,881, driven by lower operating expenses and higher attendance, partially offset by lower average revenue per guest.

Corporate Expenses and Other

Corporate spending decreased by $54,690 to $177,418 during the three month period ended June 28, 2015, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of lower legal expenses.

Interest Expense and Other Income

Interest expense, including amortization of loan fees, for the three month period ended June 28, 2015 was $58,698, an increase of $8,294 compared with the three month period ended June 29, 2014, primarily as a result of higher average seasonal borrowings.

Income Taxes

Based on our cumulative net tax operating loss carry-forwards, we do not expect to pay U.S. Federal income taxes for our 2015 fiscal year; therefore, we have not recorded a related tax provision. We expect to generate income during our 2015 fiscal year, which will be subject to State of Georgia income taxes at a rate of approximately 6%. Accordingly, we recorded a tax provision of $22,000 for estimated State of Georgia income taxes for the three months ended June 28, 2015. For additional information, see “NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).

Net Loss and Loss Per Share

Our net income increased by $137,978 to $552,275 or $0.01 per basic share and per fully diluted share, for the three month period ended June 28, 2015, as compared with a net income of $414,297 or $0.01 per basic share and per fully diluted share, for the three month period ended June 29, 2014. The primarily drivers underlying this improvement were an increase operating income for our Georgia Park and Missouri Park of $96,784 and $8,881, respectively, and a decrease in Corporate spending of $54,690, partially offset by a $8,294 increase in interest expense and an income tax provision increase of $14,545.

Results of Operations For the Nine Month Period Ended June 28, 2015 as Compared to Nine Month Period Ended June 29, 2014

Total Net Sales

Our total net sales for the nine month period ended June 28, 2015 increased by $265,377, or 10.3%, to $2,848,793 versus the nine month period ended June 29, 2014. Our Georgia Park’s net sales increased by $242,299, or 11.5%, as a result of an increase in average revenue per guest and higher attendance, partially offset by a decline in animal sales. Total net sales for our Missouri Park increased by $23,078, or 4.9%, driven by higher attendance, partially offset by lower animal sales. During the nine month period ended June 28, 2015, attendance at our Georgia and Missouri Parks increased approximately 6.5% and 4.6%, respectively. We believe this increase was partially due to favorable weather conditions compared to the nine month period ended June 29, 2014.

16

---

Segment Operating Margin

Consolidated segment income from operations increased by $228,524, resulting in segment income from operations of $851,929 for the nine month period ended June 28, 2015 compared to a consolidated segment income from operations of $623,405 during the nine month period ended June 29, 2014. This improvement was primarily driven by higher attendance and higher average revenue per guest, partially offset by lower animal sales and higher Park operating expenses. Our Georgia Park’s segment income from operations was $998,864, an increase of $187,059, principally as a result of higher revenue per guest and higher attendance, partially offset by a decline in animal sales and higher Park operating expenses. The segment loss from operations for our Missouri Park was $146,935, an improvement of $41,465, primarily as a result of higher attendance and lower Park operating costs.

Corporate Expenses and Other

Corporate spending decreased by $64,253 to $461,927 during the nine month period ended June 28, 2015, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as a result of lower legal expenses, partially offset by higher compensation expense.

Interest Expense and Other Income

Interest expense, including amortization of loan fees, for the nine month period ended June 28, 2015 was $173,889, an increase of $6,756 compared with the nine month period ended June 29, 2014, primarily as a result of higher average seasonal borrowings.

Income Taxes

Based on our cumulative net tax operating loss carry-forwards, we do not expect to pay U.S. Federal income taxes for our 2015 fiscal year; therefore, we have not recorded a related tax provision. We expect to generate income during our 2015 fiscal year, which will be subject to State of Georgia income taxes at a rate of approximately 6%. Accordingly, we recorded a tax provision of $22,000 for estimated State of Georgia income taxes for the nine months ended June 28, 2015. For additional information, see “NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).

Net Loss and Loss Per Share

Our net income increased by $270,118 to $200,091 or $0.00 per basic share and per fully diluted share, for the nine month period ended June 28, 2015, as compared with a net loss of $70,027 or $0.00 per basic share and per fully diluted share, for the nine month period ended June 29, 2014. The primarily drivers underlying this improvement were operating income increases of $187,059 and $41,465 for our Georgia Park and Missouri Park, respectively, and a decrease in Corporate spending of $64,253, partially offset by a $6,756 increase in interest expense and an income tax provision increase of $14,545.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financial Condition and Liquidity

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated by operations and borrowings under our loan agreements. Our slow season starts after Labor Day in September and runs until Spring Break, which typically begins toward the end of March. Historically, these two quarters have generated negative cash flow from operations and require us to borrow to fund operations and prepare our Parks for the busy season during the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. If our 2015 fiscal year seasonal borrowing needs exceed our Commercial Bank & Trust Company of Troup County (“CB&T”) line of credit (“LOC”), two members of our Board of Directors have agreed to offer us additional seasonal borrowing on the same terms and conditions as the LOC with CB&T, and in accordance with past practice.

We believe that our performance has improved to the point that annual cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund operations, make debt-service payments and spend modestly on capital improvements in the near-term. During the next twelve months, management will focus on increasing Park attendance revenues. Any slowdown in revenue or unusual capital outlays may require us to seek additional capital.

Our working capital was $122,567 at June 28, 2015 as compared to $167,443 at September 28, 2014. Compared to June 29, 2014, our June 28, 2015 working capital position improved by $47,510. Our 2015 fiscal year seasonal borrowing needs were higher than we planned, as we were required to post a security related to a legal action we are in the process of appealing, see “NOTE 3. RESTRICTED CASH” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for further information. We have substantially paid down our 2015 fiscal year seasonal borrowings as of June 28, 2015 and expect to have $0 seasonal borrowings as of September 27, 2015.

17

---

Total loan debt, including current maturities, at June 28, 2015 was $3.55 million compared to $3.59 million at September 28, 2014. The decrease in loan debt is the result of scheduled payments against our term loan, partially offset by $25,000 of seasonal borrowings that were outstanding as of June 28, 2015. Our seasonal related party borrowings were $25,000 at June 28, 2015 and $0 at September 28, 2014.

As of June 28, 2015, we had equity of $3.18 million and total loan debt of $3.55 million, resulting in a debt to equity ratio of 1.12 to 1. Our debt to equity ratio was 1.21 to 1 as of September 28, 2014.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $502,236 for the nine month period ended June 28, 2015, compared to $233,219 of net cash provided by operating activities for the nine month period ended June 29, 2014, an increase of $269,017. This increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of an increase in net sales, partially offset by cash used to acquire inventory.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $868,913 for the nine month period ended June 28, 2015, compared to $158,171 of net cash used in investing activities for the nine month period ended June 29, 2014, an increase of $710,742, primarily driven by a $456,492 increase in restricted cash and a $252,194 increase in the acquisition of property and equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $43,670 for the nine month period ended June 28, 2015, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $83,387 for the nine month period ended June 29, 2014, a decrease of $39,717. The decrease in cash used in financing activities is the result net seasonal borrowings and the timing of term loan payments.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent to the period covered in this report, on July 17, 2015, four members of the Company’s Board of Directors purchased a total of 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in a private transaction. As a result, as of July 31, 2015, Officers, Directors and their controlled entities own approximately 51.7% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preceding discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our significant accounting policies are set forth in “NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which should be reviewed as they are integral to understanding our results of operations and financial position. The Parks! America, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2014 includes additional information about us, our operations, our financial condition, our critical accounting policies and accounting estimates, and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Parks! America, Inc. (the “Registrant”) maintains “controls and procedures,” as such term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Exchange Act”) in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated thereunder, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Registrant’s Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Registrant’s management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, the Registrant’s management was necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

With the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Registrant, the Registrant’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon the evaluation, the Registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

In addition, there were no changes in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Registrant’s fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In September 2009, we filed an action against our former President and CEO in the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada (Parks! America, Inc. vs. Eastland; et al., Case No. 09-A-599668). We brought this action in an attempt to obtain a Temporary Restraining Order and injunctive relief against the Eastland Defendants (our former President and CEO Larry Eastland and his related companies) as to the Eastland Defendants attempt to install a new board of directors for the Company. The Temporary Restraining Order was granted, as was the Preliminary Injunction.

In June 2012, we amended our complaint against the Eastland Defendants to, among other things, add new claims for relief, as well as join as defendants, LEA Capital Advisors, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Eastland (together the Eastland Defendants), and Stanley Harper and Computer Contact Service, Inc., an entity controlled by Mr. Harper (together the Harper Defendants) for breaches of contract and fiduciary duty with regards to the Company’s purchase of TempSERV on September 30, 2007 and its subsequent re-conveyance of TempSERV to Computer Contact Service, Inc. as of January 1, 2009. We are seeking damages in excess of $1.8 million.

Discovery was conducted on the claims between the parties, after which the Harper Defendants filed for summary judgment asking that the claims against them be dismissed. After briefing and argument, the Court granted summary judgment in favor of the Harper Defendants. Because one of the contracts involved had a provision for legal fees, the Harper Defendants also filed a motion for legal fees and costs. On October 24, 2014, the Court ordered us to pay approximately $304,328 in costs and attorney’s fees in favor of the Harper Defendants.

We are in the process of appealing the summary judgment and the award of costs. Although we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit, we believe the Court’s summary judgment and award of costs in favor of the Harper Defendants is in error and are vigorously pursuing our position on appeal. However, as the award of legal fees and costs has been granted, we recorded a liability for this award as of September 28, 2014. As detailed in “NOTE 3. RESTRICTED CASH”, as of February 5, 2015, we were required to post a security in the amount of 150%, or $456,492, of the judgment during our appeal of the summary judgment and award of costs.

The remainder of the District Court case against the Eastland Defendants has been stayed pending the result of the appeal. We intend to proceed with our case against the Eastland Defendants regardless of the result of the appeal. If the summary judgment decision is reversed upon appeal, that action will proceed against both the Eastland Defendants and the Harper Defendants.

Except as described above, we are not a party to any pending legal proceeding, nor is our property the subject of a pending legal proceeding, that is not in the ordinary course of business or otherwise material to the financial condition of our business. None of our directors, officers or affiliates is involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or has a material interest adverse to our business.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should read the MD&A together with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes, each included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in conjunction with the Parks! America, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2014. Some of the information contained in the MD&A or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including information with respect to our plans and strategies for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the "RISK FACTORS" below for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this report. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Risk Factors Relating to Our Business:

We may not identify or complete acquisitions in a timely, cost-effective manner, if at all.

Our business plan is predicated upon the acquisition of additional local or regional theme parks and attractions; and, the approval and expansion of our current facilities and offerings. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring and operating additional local or regional theme parks and attractions. Competition for acquisition opportunities in the theme park industry is intense as there are a limited number of parks within the United States that could reasonably qualify as acquisition targets for us. Our acquisition strategy is dependent upon, among other things, our ability to: identify acquisition opportunities; obtain debt and equity financing; and obtain necessary regulatory approvals. Our ability to pursue our acquisition strategy may be hindered if we are not able to successfully identify acquisition targets or obtain the necessary financing or regulatory approvals, including but not limited to those arising under federal and state antitrust and environmental laws.

Significant amounts of additional financing may be necessary for the implementation of our Business Plan.

The Company may require additional debt and equity financing to pursue its acquisition strategy. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional financing. Lack of additional funding could force us to substantially curtail our expansion plans. Furthermore, the issuance by the Company of any additional securities would dilute the ownership of existing stockholders and may affect the price of our common stock.

The Theme Park Industry is highly competitive and we may be unable to compete effectively.

The theme park industry is highly competitive, highly fragmented, rapidly evolving, and subject to technological change and intense marketing by providers with similar products. One of our competitors for attracting general recreation dollars, Callaway Gardens, is located within five miles of our Georgia Park. Branson, Missouri is located just 45 minutes from our Missouri Park. Many of our current competitors are significantly larger properties and have substantially greater market presence as well as greater financial, technical, operational, marketing and other resources and experience than we have. In the event that such a competitor expends significant sales and marketing resources in one or several markets we may not be able to compete successfully in such markets. The Company believes that competition will continue to increase, placing downward pressure on prices. Such pressure could adversely affect our gross margins if we are not able to reduce costs commensurate with such price reductions. In addition, the pace of technological change makes it impossible for us to predict whether we will face new competitors using different technologies to provide the same or similar products offered or proposed to be offered by us. If our competitors were to provide better and more cost effective products, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

We face strong competition from numerous entertainment alternatives.

In addition to competing with other themed and amusement parks, our venues compete with other types of recreational venues and entertainment alternatives, including but not limited to movies, sports attractions, vacation travel and video games. There can be no assurance that we will successfully differentiate ourselves from these entertainment alternatives or that consumers will consider our entertainment offerings to be more appealing than those of our competitors. The increasing availability and quality of technology-based entertainment has provided families with a wider selection of entertainment alternatives in their homes, including home entertainment units, in-home and online gaming, as well as on-demand streaming video and related access to various forms of entertainment. In addition, traditional theme parks have been able to reduce the cost and increase the variety of their attractions by implementing technologies that cannot be readily incorporated by wild animal parks such as our Georgia and Missouri Parks.

Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all possible losses that we could suffer, and our insurance costs may increase.

Companies engaged in the theme park business may be sued for substantial damages in the event of an actual or alleged accident. An accident occurring at our Parks or at competing parks may reduce attendance, increase insurance premiums, and negatively impact our operating results. Our properties contain drive-through, safari style animal parks, and there are inherent risks associated with allowing the public to interact with animals. Although we carry liability insurance to cover this risk, there can be no assurance that our coverage will be adequate to cover liabilities, or that we will be able to afford or obtain adequate coverage should a catastrophic incident occur.

We currently have $6.0 million of liability insurance. We will continue to use reasonable commercial efforts to maintain policies of liability, fire and casualty insurance sufficient to provide reasonable coverage for risks arising from accidents, fire, weather, other acts of God, and other potential casualties. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain adequate levels of insurance to protect against suits and judgments in connection with accidents or other disasters that may occur in our Parks.

Our ownership of real property subjects us to environmental regulation, which creates uncertainty regarding future environmental expenditures and liabilities.

We may be required to incur costs to comply with environmental requirements, such as those relating to discharges to air, water and land; the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous waste; and the cleanup of properties affected by hazardous substances. Under these and other environmental requirements we may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or chemical releases at one of our properties. As an owner or operator, we could also be held responsible to a governmental entity or third party for property damage, personal injury and investigation and cleanup costs incurred by them in connection with any contamination. Environmental laws typically impose cleanup responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the presence of the contaminants. The liability under those laws has been interpreted to be joint and several unless the harm is divisible and there is a reasonable basis for allocation of the responsibility. The costs of investigation, remediation or removal of those substances may be substantial, and the presence of those substances, or the failure to remediate a property properly, may impair our ability to use our property. We are not currently aware of any material environmental risks regarding our properties. However, we may be required to incur costs to remediate potential environmental hazards or to mitigate environmental risks in the future.

The suspension or termination of any of our business licenses may have a negative impact on our business.

We maintain a variety of standard business licenses issued by federal, state and city government agencies that are renewable on a periodic basis. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in renewing all of our licenses on a periodic basis. The suspension, termination or expiration of one or more of these licenses could have a significant adverse effect on our revenues and profits. In addition, any changes to the licensing requirements for any of our licenses could affect our ability to maintain the licenses.

We are dependent upon the services of our Executive Officers and consultants.

Our success is heavily dependent on the continued active participation of our executive officers. Loss of the services of one or more of these officers could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations. In particular, we place substantial reliance upon the efforts and abilities of Dale Van Voorhis, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Jim Meikle, Chief Operating Officer and a Director of the Company, and President of Wild Animal – Missouri and Wild Animal – Georgia. The loss of Mr. Van Voorhis or Mr. Meikle's services could have a serious adverse effect on our business, operations, revenues or prospects.

Further, our success and achievement of our growth plans depend on our ability to recruit, hire, train and retain other highly qualified technical and managerial personnel. Competition for qualified employees among companies in the theme park industry is intense, and the loss of any such persons, or an inability to attract, retain and motivate any additional highly skilled employees required for the expansion of the Company’s activities, could have a materially adverse effect on the Company. The inability of the Company to attract and retain the necessary personnel, and consultants and advisors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Risk Factors Relating to Our Common Stock:

Our Common Stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in our Common Stock is limited, which makes transactions in our Common Stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our Common Stock.

Our common stock is considered a "penny stock" and the sale of our stock by you will be subject to the "penny stock rules" of the SEC. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to take steps before making any penny stock trades in customer accounts. As a result, the market for our shares could be illiquid and there could be delays in the trading of our stock, which would negatively affect your ability to sell your shares and could negatively affect the trading price of your shares.

We do not expect to pay dividends for some time, if at all.

As of the date of this report, no cash dividends have been paid on our common stock. We expect that any income received from operations will be devoted to our future operations and growth, as well as to service our debt. We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the near future. Any future determination as to the payment of dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. The provisions of credit agreements, which we may enter into from time to time, may also restrict the declaration of dividends on our common stock.
