Kellogg Reports An Excellent First Quarter, Increases Dividend

     BATTLE CREEK, Mich. – Kellogg Company (NYSE: K) today reported strong sales and earnings growth. Earnings exceeded the very strong results posted in the first quarter of 2004 despite a significant amount of investment in the business. Last month the Company raised its expectations for first quarter earnings due to continued strong broad-based business strength and momentum.

     Reported net earnings for the quarter were $254.7 million, a 16% increase from last year’s $219.8 million. Earnings were $0.61 per diluted share, a 15% increase from last year’s $0.53 per share. Each of the Company’s businesses contributed to the growth which resulted from successful innovation, brand building, investment, and strong execution.

     “This was another excellent quarter for the Company,” said Jim Jenness, Kellogg’s chairman and chief executive officer. “We delivered growth across our businesses while facing continued cost pressures. Most importantly, though, we increased the level of investment we plan to make in our business. These investments are made to drive sustainable growth in the future.”

     Reported net sales in the quarter increased by 8% to $2.6 billion. Internal net sales growth, which excludes foreign-currency translation, was 6% and built on very strong growth of 7% in the comparable period of last year.

     Kellogg North America achieved internal net sales growth of 7%, driven by growth in the each of the businesses. The segment’s retail cereal sales rose 4% in local currencies, as a result of successful new product introductions and effective brand-building campaigns. North America Retail Snacks posted internal sales growth of 7%, as each of its businesses, cookies, crackers, wholesome snacks, and toaster pastries, posted sales increases. The North America Frozen and Specialty Channels businesses collectively posted local-currency sales growth of 12%, driven by

strong double-digit gains posted by the Eggo brand. The Food-Away-From-Home businesses posted high single-digit sales growth.

     Kellogg International reported net sales growth of 8% in the quarter, or 5% excluding the favorable effect of currency translation; this built on 10% internal sales growth in the first quarter of last year. Internal sales growth in Latin America was 12%, driven by the cereal and snacks businesses, both of which posted double-digit growth. Europe’s local-currency sales growth was 3%, which built on strong 7% internal growth in the first quarter of 2004. Internal net sales in the Asia Pacific region increased by 4%, also driven by gains in cereal and snacks

     Quarterly operating profit was $468 million in the quarter, an increase of 11% from the first quarter of last year. Higher net sales, improved product mix, operating leverage, and productivity savings contributed to the growth; these factors more than offset the negative impact of increased benefit costs and significant investment in efficiency initiatives and brand-building activities. Slightly lower interest expense and a lower tax rate also added to net income growth.

     Cash flow, defined as cash from operating activities less capital expenditures, was $169 million in the first quarter. The decline from last year’s very strong $211 million was primarily due to an interest payment of $112 million, which was made during the quarter; the comparable payment fell in the second quarter of 2004.

Kellogg Expresses Increased Confidence In 2005 Outlook and Increases Dividend

     Kellogg stated that it now expects full-year earnings at the high end of the previously stated range of $2.28-2.32 per share. Last month, the Company raised its full-year 2005 estimate for up-front costs related to cost-reduction initiatives to approximately $0.15 per share. The previous projection had been for these costs to equal $0.08-0.10 per share.

     In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved a 10% increase in the dividend effective in the third quarter of 2005.

     Mr. Jenness concluded, “We posted a very strong start to 2005. Our businesses around the world have momentum, and our employees continue to execute our strategy and operating

principles. It is this excellent performance that gives us additional confidence in our ability to meet our long-term targets in 2005, even while making significant investment in our future growth. We are doing the right things for the business and remain committed to generating sustainable and dependable growth.”
