KMART CORPORATION NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. On January 22, 2002 ("Petition Date"), Kmart Corporation and 37 of its U.S. subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy code ("Bankruptcy Code" or "Chapter 11") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois ("Court"). The reorganization is being jointly administered under the caption "In re Kmart Corporation, et al., Case No. 02 B 02474." Included in the consolidated financial statements are subsidiaries operating outside of the United States, which have not commenced Chapter 11 cases or other similar proceedings elsewhere, and are not debtors ("non-filing subsidiaries"). The assets and liabilities of such non-filing subsidiaries are not considered material to the consolidated financial statements. Kmart Corporation and all of its consolidated subsidiaries, whether or not considered filing or non-filing subsidiaries, are collectively referred to herein as "the Company." 2. To supplement operating cash flow during the reorganization process, the Company secured a $2 billion senior secured debtor-in-possession financing facility ("DIP Credit Facility") from JP Morgan Chase Bank, Fleet Retail Finance, Inc., General Electric Capital Corporation, and Credit Suisse First Boston for the payment of certain pre-petition claims and the funding of working capital and other general operating needs. The DIP Credit Facility requires that we restrict future liens, indebtedness, capital expenditures, dividend payments and sales of assets, and that we maintain certain financial covenants, one of which requires minimum levels of cumulative EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other charges as defined in the DIP Credit Facility), the amounts of which vary throughout the year. The DIP Credit Facility was amended as of August 29, 2002, with the approval of the Court, to provide additional flexibility under the financial covenant contained therein that requires minimum levels of cumulative EBITDA. The DIP Credit Facility was again amended on January 9, 2003, with the approval of the court, to allow for the closure of additional stores and modifications to the EBITDA covenants. As of February 26, 2003 the Company had no borrowings outstanding and had utilized $350 million of the DIP Credit Facility for letters of credit issued for ongoing import purchasing operations, contractual and regulatory purposes. Outlined below is a summary of availability under the DIP Credit Facility: ($ millions) DIP Credit Facility capacity $2,000 5% Holdback (100) DIP loans outstanding - Letters of credit outstanding (350) ------ Total Available as of February 26, 2003 $1,550 ====== 3. On January 24, 2003 Kmart received approval from the Court for $2 billion in exit financing from GE Commercial Finance, Fleet Retail Finance, Inc. and Bank of America, N.A. This credit facility, which will be collateralized by inventory, would replace our current $2 billion DIP Credit Facility on the effective date of our Plan of Reorganization. The financing is subject to satisfaction of customary conditions to closing and would be available to Kmart to help meet its ongoing working capital needs, including borrowings for seasonal increases in inventory. 4. Comparable store sales for the four-week period ended February 26, 2003 were 2.5% lower than the same period last year. Comparable store sales do not include the going out of business sales at our 316 closing locations. KMART CORPORATION NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. Reorganization items, net, of $3 million of expense includes $17 million for stay bonuses under the Key Employee Retention Program approved by the Court and $8 million of professional fees, partially offset by $22 million of income related to the sale of pharmacy lists in the 316 closing stores. 6. On January 24, 2003, we filed a Plan of Reorganization and related Disclosure Statement with the Court. On February 25, 2003, we filed our First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the "Plan of Reorganization") and a related amended Disclosure Statement with the Court. The Plan of Reorganization received the formal endorsement of our statutory creditors committees and, on February 25, 2003, the Court approved our amended Disclosure Statement. All holders of claims as of February 18, 2003 received the amended Disclosure Statement, which was mailed to creditors and shareholders on or about March 7, 2003. We are presently scheduled to seek confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization by the Court at a hearing scheduled for April 14 and 15, 2003 and, if confirmed, plan to emerge from Chapter 11 by April 30, 2003. 7. On February 3, 2003 we announced that we had terminated our supply relationship with Fleming by means of a rejection of the 2001 contract through Kmart's Chapter 11 reorganization. Fleming continued to supply food and consumable products to us until March 8, 2003. We now facilitate the supply of food and consumables ourselves. Kmart has experienced little business interruption in the transition. As part of the bankruptcy proceedings, Fleming has filed a claim of $1.5 billion as of March 11, 2003. On March 18, 2003, we came to an agreement with Fleming in regards to their claim for $15 million representing an administrative claim and $450 million as a pre-petition claim. Our estimate of our liability related to this claim is not yet represented in our results of operations in the first quarter of 2003. 8. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets. Based on the Company's bankruptcy filing, realization of such assets in future years is uncertain. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any tax benefit from its losses in fiscal 2003. 9. Cash Receipts and Disbursements for the four-week period ended February 26, 2003 are summarized as actual receipts and disbursements during the period, as compiled from the Company's daily cash records.

KMART CORPORATION CAUTIONARY STATEMENT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon the information contained herein. The Monthly Operating Report ("Operating Report") contains unaudited information, is limited in scope, covers a limited time period and is in a format prescribed by the applicable bankruptcy laws. There can be no assurance that the Operating Report is complete. The Operating Report contains information for periods which may be shorter or otherwise different from those contained in the Company's reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Such information may not be indicative of the Company's financial condition or operating results for the periods reflected in the Company's financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act and readers are cautioned to refer to the Exchange Act filings. Moreover, the Operating Report and other communications from the Company may include forward-looking statements subject to various assumptions regarding the Company's operating performance that may not be realized and are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, including those described in this report, many of which are beyond the Company's control. Consequently, such matters should not be regarded as a representation or warranty by the Company that such matters will be realized or are indicative of the Company's financial condition or operating results for future periods or the periods covered in the Company's reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. Actual results for such periods may differ materially from the information contained in the Operating Report and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise the Operating Report. The Operating Report, as well as other statements made by the Company, may contain forward-looking statements that reflect, when made, the Company's current views with respect to current events and financial performance. Such forward looking statements are and will be, as the case may be, subject to many risks, uncertainties and factors relating to the Company's operations and business environment which may cause the actual results of the Company to be materially different from any future results, express or implied, by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern; the ability of the Company to operate pursuant to the terms of the DIP facility; the Company's ability to obtain court approval with respect to motions in the Chapter 11 proceeding prosecuted by it from time to time; the ability of the Company to develop, prosecute, confirm and consummate one or more plans of reorganization with respect to the Chapter 11 cases; risks associated with third parties seeking and obtaining court approval to terminate or shorten the exclusivity period for the Company to propose and confirm one or more plans of reorganization, for the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee or to convert the cases to Chapter 7 cases; the ability of the Company to obtain and maintain normal terms with vendors and service providers; the ability of our vendors to obtain satisfactory credit terms from factors and other financing sources; the Company's ability to maintain contracts that are critical to its operations; the potential adverse impact of the Chapter 11 cases on the Company's liquidity or results of operations; the ability of the Company to fund and execute its business plan; the ability of the Company to attract, motivate and/or retain key executives and associates; and the ability of the Company to attract and retain customers. Other risk factors are listed from time to time in the Company's SEC reports, including, but not limited to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 29, 2003 and the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the Company's most recent fiscal quarter. Kmart disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Similarly, these and other factors, including the terms of any reorganization plan ultimately confirmed, can affect the value of the Company's various pre-petition liabilities, common stock and/or other equity securities. There can be no assurance, however, that the Plan of Reorganization submitted by Kmart will be confirmed by the Court, or that such Plan of Reorganization will be consummated; in addition, the timing of such actions may be other than currently planned by Kmart. A Plan of Reorganization cannot become effective until confirmed by the Court, upon certain findings being made by the Court which are required by the Bankruptcy Code. The Court may confirm a plan notwithstanding the non-acceptance of the plan by an impaired class of creditors or equity security holders if certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met. If it is determined, as is expected, that liabilities subject to compromise in the Chapter 11 cases exceed the fair value of the assets available to satisfy them, unsecured claims may be satisfied at less than 100% of their face value and the equity interests of Kmart's shareholders may have no value.
