(a) Financial data for 1997 through 1999 reflect the retroactive effect of the
    merger, accounted for as a pooling of interests, with The Learning Company,
    Inc. ("Learning Company") in May 1999. As more fully described in Note 13 to
    the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Consumer Software segment, which
    was comprised primarily of Learning Company, was reported as a discontinued
    operation effective March 31, 2000, and the consolidated financial
    statements were reclassified to segregate the net investment in, and the
    liabilities and operating results of the Consumer Software segment.

(b) Consolidated financial information for 1997 has been restated retroactively
    for the effects of the March 1997 merger with Tyco Toys, Inc. ("Tyco"),
    accounted for as a pooling of interests.

(c) In first quarter 2002, Mattel implemented Emerging Issues Task Force Issue
    No. 01-09, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer. Net
    sales, gross profit and advertising and promotion expenses have been
    restated to reflect the reclassification of sales incentives or certain
    consideration offered by Mattel to its vendors as a result of implementing
    this Issue.

(d) Represents income from continuing operations before interest expense and
    provision for income taxes.

(e) Per share data reflect the retroactive effect of the mergers with Learning
    Company and Tyco in 1999 and 1997, respectively.
