AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 26, 2000 (COLUMNAR DOLLARS IN MILLIONS) 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES The unaudited interim financial information included herein reflects normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the ConAgra Foods, Inc. (the "Company") fiscal 2000 annual report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for other interim periods or the full year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform with current year classifications. In December 1999, SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, REVENUE RECOGNITION IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, was issued. In fiscal 2001, Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 00-14, ACCOUNTING FOR COUPONS, REBATES, AND DISCOUNTS, EITF Issue No. 99-19, REPORTING REVENUE GROSS AS A PRINCIPAL VERSUS NET AS AN AGENT, and EITF Issue No. 00-10, ACCOUNTING FOR SHIPPING AND HANDLING FEES AND COSTS, were issued. These pronouncements will become effective for the Company in fiscal 2001. In conjunction with the adoption of these pronouncements the Company is assessing accounting policies potentially impacted by the new pronouncements. The Company has not quantified the impact, if any, resulting from adoption of these new pronouncements. In addition, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, will become effective for the Company in fiscal 2002. The Company has not quantified the impact, if any, resulting from adoption of this standard. 2. ACQUISITIONS On August 24, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock and stock options of International Home Foods ("IHF") in a transaction accounted for as a purchase business combination. As part of the acquisition, the Company issued approximately 41 million shares of Company common stock and assumed options to acquire approximately 5 million post-acquisition shares of Company common stock, having an aggregate fair value of approximately $850 million. In addition, the Company paid approximately $875 million in cash to the IHF shareholders and assumed approximately $1.1 billion of debt. IHF's results of operations did not impact the Company's results during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as the acquisition was completed at the conclusion of the first quarter. The Company has preliminarily allocated the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired to brands, trademarks and goodwill. The purchase price allocation will be completed upon finalization of asset and liability valuations. In connection with this acquisition, the Company expects to consolidate certain plants and will include the associated costs as part of the purchase price allocation. The costs assigned to intangible assets arising from the transaction are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 40 years. 6 CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 26, 2000 (COLUMNAR DOLLARS IN MILLIONS) On September 15, 2000, the Company issued $1.65 billion of senior notes, comprised of $600 million of 7.5% senior notes, due September 15, 2005, $750 million of 7.875% senior notes, due September 15, 2010 and $300 million of 8.25% senior notes, due September 15, 2030. The net proceeds were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under short-term credit facilities with maturities less than six months and bearing interest at a rate between 6.7% and 6.8% per annum. In addition, the Company assumed $385 million of IHF 10.375% senior secured notes due in 2006 and redeemed the notes on October 6, 2000. The Company's unaudited pro forma results of operations for the twenty-six weeks ended November 26, 2000 and November 28, 1999, assuming the acquisition of IHF occurred as of the beginning of the periods presented are as follows:
TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 26, NOVEMBER 28, 2000 1999 ------------ ------------ Net sales $ 14,519.6 $ 14,292.9 Net income 458.6 309.5 Income per share - diluted .88 .59
3. OPERATION OVERDRIVE During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company completed a restructuring plan in connection with its previously announced initiative, "Operation Overdrive." The restructuring plan was aimed at eliminating overcapacity, streamlining operations and improving future profitability through margin expansion and expense reductions. The pre-tax charge of the plan totaled $1,062.2 million with $621.4 million and $440.8 million recognized in fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively. Included in the Company's results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended November 28, 1999 are restructuring plan charges of $104.4 million ($64.7 million net of tax) as follows:

7 CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 26, 2000 (COLUMNAR DOLLARS IN MILLIONS) Included in the Company's results of operations for the twenty-six weeks ended November 28, 1999 are restructuring plan charges of $151.5 million ($93.9 million net of tax) as follows:
Packaged Refrigerated Agricultural Foods Foods Products Total -------- ------------ ------------ -------- Accelerated depreciation $ 67.4 $ 8.9 $ - $ 76.3 Inventory markdowns 14.5 .1 19.1 33.7 Restructuring plan implementation costs 2.6 4.4 .8 7.8 Restructuring/Impairment charges 12.8 12.6 8.3 33.7 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total $ 97.3 $ 26.0 $ 28.2 $ 151.5 ======== ======== ======== ========
Restructuring plan charges reflected in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended November 28, 1999 are as follows: accelerated depreciation of $33.8 million and $64.8 million, respectively, are included in cost of goods sold; accelerated depreciation of $7.5 million and $11.5 million, respectively, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses; inventory markdowns are included in cost of goods sold; plan implementation costs (primarily third-party consulting costs) are included in selling, general and administrative expenses; and restructuring/impairment charges are reflected as such and result from asset impairments, employee related costs and contractual termination costs. Asset impairment charges were primarily reflected in the Company's Refrigerated Foods and Agricultural Products segments. Certain assets to be disposed of that were not immediately removed from operations were depreciated on an accelerated basis over their remaining useful lives. Inventory markdowns represented losses to write down the carrying value of non-strategic inventory resulting from the closure of facilities and discontinuation of certain products. Approximately 8,450 employees received notification of their termination as a result of the restructuring plan, primarily in manufacturing and operating facilities. In addition, other exit costs (consisting of lease termination and other contractual termination costs) occurred as a result of the restructuring plan. Such activity is as follows:

INCOME PER SHARE The following table reconciles the income and average share amounts used to compute both basic and diluted income per share:

6. CONTINGENCIES In fiscal 1991, the Company acquired Beatrice Company ("Beatrice"). As a result of the acquisition and the significant pre-acquisition contingencies of the Beatrice businesses and its former subsidiaries, the consolidated post-acquisition financial statements of the Company reflect significant liabilities associated with the estimated resolution of these contingencies. These include various litigation and environmental proceedings related to businesses divested by Beatrice prior to its acquisition by the Company. The environmental proceedings include 9 CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 26, 2000 (COLUMNAR DOLLARS IN MILLIONS) litigation and administrative proceedings involving Beatrice's status as a potentially responsible party at 41 Superfund, proposed Superfund or state-equivalent sites. Beatrice has paid or is in the process of paying its liability share at 33 of these sites. Substantial reserves for these matters have been established based on the Company's best estimate of its undiscounted remediation liabilities, which estimates include evaluation of investigatory studies, extent of required cleanup, the known volumetric contribution of Beatrice and other potentially responsible parties and its experience in remediating sites. The Company is a party to a number of other lawsuits and claims arising out of the operation of its businesses. After taking into account liabilities recorded for all of the foregoing matters, management believes the ultimate resolution of such matters should not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. 7. BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company's business segments are aggregated into three reportable segments based upon similar economic characteristics, nature of products and services offered, nature of production processes, the type or class of customer and distribution methods. Packaged Foods includes companies that produce shelf-stable and frozen foods. Refrigerated Foods includes companies that produce and market branded processed meats, beef, pork, chicken and turkey. Both the Packaged Foods and Refrigerated Foods segments market food products in retail and foodservice channels. Agricultural Products includes companies involved in distribution of agricultural inputs and procurement, processing, trading and distribution of commodity food ingredients and agricultural commodities. Intersegment sales have been recorded at amounts approximating market. Operating profit for each segment is based on net sales less all identifiable operating expenses and includes the related equity in earnings of companies included on the basis of the equity method of accounting. General corporate expense, goodwill amortization, interest expense and income taxes have been excluded from segment operations. 10 CONAGRA FOODS, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which affected the Company's financial condition and operating results for the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Results for the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended November 26, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be attained in the future. This report contains forward-looking statements. The statements reflect management's current views and estimates of future economic circumstances, industry conditions, company performance and financial results. The statements are based on many assumptions and factors including availability and prices of raw materials, product pricing, competitive environment and related market conditions, operating efficiencies, access to capital and actions of governments. Any changes in such assumptions or factors could produce significantly different results. FINANCIAL CONDITION ConAgra's earnings are generated principally from its capital investment, which consists of working capital (current assets less current liabilities) plus all noncurrent assets. Capital investment is financed with stockholders' equity, long-term debt and other noncurrent liabilities. On August 24, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding International Home Foods ("IHF") common stock and assumed options exercisable post-acquisition for shares of Company common stock for total consideration of approximately $1.7 billion plus the assumption of approximately $1.1 billion in debt. Primarily as a result of this acquisition, capital investment increased approximately $2.8 billion as compared to May 28, 2000, consisting of a $93.1 million working capital increase and a $2.7 billion increase in noncurrent assets. In addition, senior long-term debt increased approximately $1.6 billion as compared to May 28, 2000, primarily as a result of the IHF acquisition. During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company issued $1.65 billion of senior notes, comprised of $600 million of 7.5% senior notes, due September 15, 2005, $750 million of 7.875% senior notes, due September 15, 2010 and $300 million of 8.25% senior notes, due September 15, 2030. The net proceeds were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under short-term credit facilities with maturities less than six months and bearing interest at a rate between 6.7% and 6.8% per annum. In addition, the Company assumed $385 million of IHF 10.375% senior secured notes due in 2006 and redeemed the notes on October 6, 2000. The Company's long-term debt objective is that senior long-term debt will not normally exceed 30% of total long-term debt plus equity. Long-term subordinated debt is treated as equity due to its preferred stock characteristics. The Company's policy has been that it would exceed this self-imposed limit for a major strategic acquisition that is intended to create value for shareholders over the long term. In management's view, the fiscal 2001 acquisition of IHF represented such an opportunity. 13 CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OPERATING RESULTS A summary of the period to period increases (decreases) in the principal components of operations, both before and after restructuring and other restructuring-related charges ("restructuring charges") recognized in fiscal 2000, is shown below (dollars in millions, except per share amounts).

In comparison to fiscal 2000 second quarter, the Company's fiscal 2001 second quarter diluted income per share was $.58, an increase of $.19, or 48.7 percent; operating profit was $691.9 million, an increase of $241.6 million, or 53.7 percent; and net income was $301.7 million, an increase of $114.4 million, or 61.1 percent. Excluding restructuring charges recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company's fiscal 2001 second quarter diluted income per share increased $.05, or 9.4 percent; operating profit increased $137.2 million, or 24.7 percent; and net income increased $49.7 million, or 19.7 percent. For the first half of fiscal 2001, diluted income per share was $.89, an increase of $.29, or 48.0 percent; operating profit was $1,101.7 million, an increase of $312.2 million, or 39.5 percent; and net income was $447.8 million, an increase of $158.7 million, or 54.9 percent. The sum of the income per share for fiscal 2001 first and second quarters does not equal the income per share reported for the first half of fiscal 2001 due to rounding. Excluding restructuring charges recognized in the first half of fiscal 2000, the Company's fiscal 2001 first half diluted income per share increased $.09, or 11.2 percent; operating profit increased $160.7 million, or 17.1 percent; and net income increased $64.8 million, or 16.9 percent. In the Company's Packaged Foods segment, second quarter sales increased $333.0 million, or 16.0 percent, as compared to second quarter fiscal 2000. Operating profit for the second quarter increased $158.8 million, or 66.4 percent, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2000. For the first half of fiscal 2001, sales increased $310.5 million, or 8.1 percent, while operating profit increased $191.5 million, or 46.8 percent as compared to the first half of fiscal 2000. The second quarter and first half increases in sales 14 CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS and operating profit resulted primarily from the broader portfolio of shelf stable products associated with the International Home Foods acquisition, which occurred at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The second quarter and first half increases in fiscal 2001 operating profit were also a result of stronger results in the segment's french fry, seafood, and specialty meats operations, as well as restructuring plan charges included in fiscal 2000's operating results. Excluding restructuring plan charges recognized in fiscal 2000, second quarter operating profit increased $90.3 million, or 29.4 percent, over the second quarter of fiscal 2000, while operating profit for the first half of fiscal 2001 increased $94.2 million, or 18.6 percent, as compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2000. In the Company's Refrigerated Foods segment, second quarter sales increased $163.8 million, or 5.1 percent, as compared to second quarter fiscal 2000. Operating profit for the second quarter increased $30.4 million, or 24.6 percent, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2000. Increased operating profits for the segment's branded meat business and poultry operations contributed to the growth in operating profit for the quarter. For the first half of fiscal 2001, sales increased $380.5 million, or 5.9 percent, while operating profit increased $30.3 million, or 13.0 percent as compared to the first half of fiscal 2000. The first half increases in operating profit were primarily due to increased operating profits in the segment's branded prepared meat business, which more than offset decreases in operating profit for the segment's pork and poultry operations. The second quarter and first half increases in fiscal 2001 operating profit were also impacted by restructuring plan charges included in fiscal 2000's operating results. Excluding restructuring plan charges recognized in fiscal 2000, second quarter operating profit increased $12.5 million, or 8.8 percent, over the second quarter of fiscal 2000, while operating profit for the first half of fiscal 2001 increased $4.3 million, or 1.7 percent, as compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2000. In the Company's Agricultural Products segment, second quarter sales increased $11.7 million, or .8 percent, as compared to second quarter fiscal 2000. Operating profit for the second quarter increased $52.4 million, or 60.0 percent, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2000. For the first half of fiscal 2001, sales decreased $12.4 million, or .4 percent, while operating profit increased $90.4 million, or 61.7 percent as compared to the first half of fiscal 2000. The second quarter and first half increases in operating profit were primarily due to increased operating profits in the segment's trading business. The second quarter and first half increases in fiscal 2001 operating profit were also impacted by restructuring plan charges included in fiscal 2000's operating results. Excluding restructuring plan charges recognized in fiscal 2000, second quarter operating profit increased $34.4 million, or 32.6 percent, over the second quarter of fiscal 2000, while operating profit for the first half of fiscal 2001 increased $62.2 million, or 35.6 percent, as compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2000. On December 25, 2000, one of the Company's beef processing facilities located in Garden City, Kansas, suffered damage due to a fire. As a result, the facility will be shut down for an indeterminate period of time. The Company does not believe the shut down of the facility will have a material impact on its results of operations. 15 CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 3.

TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 26, 2000 ------------- Fixed Charges as defined: Interest expense $ 207.2 Capitalized interest 2.7 Interest in cost of goods sold 16.2 Preferred distributions of subsidiary 21.2 One-third of noncancelable lease rent 13.7 ------------- Total fixed charges (A) $ 261.0 ============= Earnings as defined: Pretax income after elimination of undistributed earnings of equity method investees $ 728.3 Add fixed charges 261.0 Less capitalized interest (2.7) ------------- Earnings and fixed charges (B) $ 986.6 ============= Ratio of earnings to fixed charges (B/A) 3.8
For the purposes of computing the above ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of income before taxes and fixed charges. Fixed charges, for the purpose of computing earnings, are adjusted to exclude interest capitalized. Fixed charges include interest on both long and short-term debt (whether said interest is expensed or capitalized and including interest charged to cost of goods sold), and a portion of noncancelable rental expense representative of the interest factor. The ratio is computed using the amounts for ConAgra Foods as a whole, including its majority-owned subsidiaries, whether or not consolidated, and its proportionate share of any 50% owned subsidiaries, whether or not ConAgra Foods guarantees obligations of these subsidiaries. 19 EX-99.1 3 a2034784zex-99_1.txt UNAUDITED & PROFORMA EXHIBIT 99.1 CONAGRA FOODS, INC.

See notes to unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements. 22 EXHIBIT 99.1 CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) On August 24, 2000, ConAgra Foods acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and stock options of International Home Foods in a transaction accounted for as a purchase business combination. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be assigned a portion of the purchase price equal to their respective fair market values at August 24, 2000. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are based on the following: 1. The historical consolidated condensed statements of earnings of ConAgra Foods. The merger is reflected in ConAgra Foods' historical unaudited statement of earnings for the thirteen weeks ended November 26, 2000, and accordingly the unadudited pro forma combined condensed statement of earnings for the twenty-six weeks ended November 26, 2000 combine the historical unaudited consolidated condensed statement of earnings of ConAgra Foods with the unadudited consolidated condensed statements of earnings of International Home Foods for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000. 2. The historical consolidated condensed statements of earnings of International Home Foods recasted for the twelve-month and three-month periods ended June 30, 2000. 3. The pro forma statements of earnings adjustments are as follows: a. Provide depreciation and amortization of the fair values assigned to all identifiable tangible and intangible assets. The excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired has preliminarily been allocated to brands, trademarks and goodwill and is being amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. ConAgra Foods expects to allocate a portion of the purchase price to buildings, machinery and equipment and other intangible assets. Assuming these assets had a weighted average life of 20 years, for each $100.0 million allocated to buildings, machinery and equipment or other intangible assets, pro forma operating expenses would increase by $3.5 million and pro forma net income would decrease by $1.6 million. b. Reclassification of International Home Foods' trade promotion expenses from selling, general and administrative expenses to net sales to conform to ConAgra Foods' presentation, as well as reclassification of certain International Home Foods' freight costs from selling, general and administrative expenses to cost of goods sold to conform to ConAgra Foods' presentation. c. Adjust interest expense relating to (1) additional borrowings under ConAgra Foods' credit facilities of approximately $875 million for the cash portion of the purchase price and approximately $719 million for the repayment of International Home Foods' credit facilities at an assumed interest rate of 7.81% and (2) additional long-term borrowings of $385 million at 6.8% for the repayment of International Home Foods' $385 million 10.375% Senior Secured Notes as follows:

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) A .125% change in the interest rate on the new indebtedness would change interest expense by approximately $.6 million and $2.5 million for the twenty-six weeks ended November 26, 2000 and fiscal year ended May 28, 2000, respectively. d. Change in income tax expense/benefit as a result of pro forma adjustments which affect taxable income. No pro forma income taxes have currently been provided on the portion of the purchase price preliminarily allocated to non-deductible goodwill. 4. The pro forma weighted average shares outstanding for the twenty-six weeks ended November 26, 2000 and fiscal year ended May 28, 2000 are as follows:
