THE COMPANY

Consolidated Stores Corporation was incorporated in Delaware in 1983. Its principal executive offices are located at 300 Phillipi Road, P.O. Box 28512, Columbus, Ohio 43228-0512, and its telephone number is (614) 278-6800. All references herein to the “Company” are to Consolidated Stores Corporation and its subsidiaries.

The Company is a leading value retailer specializing in closeout merchandise and toys. At January 29, 2000, the Company operated a total of 2,550 stores in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and Guam and conducted online sales of children’s products. Retail operations are conducted primarily under the following names: Odd Lots, Big Lots, Big Lots Furniture, Mac Frugal’s Bargains •Close-outs, and Pic ‘N’ Save (collectively “Closeout Stores”) and K•B Toys, K•B Toy Works, and K•B Toy Outlet (collectively “Toy Stores”) and KBkids.com.

The Company’s goal is to build upon its leadership position in closeout retailing, a growing segment of the retailing industry, toy retailing and children’s products by expanding its market presence in both existing and new markets.

On June 25, 1999, KB Online Holding LLC (“KB Online”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and BrainPlay.com, Inc. (“BrainPlay.com”) formed KBkids.com LLC (“KBkids.com”) as a joint venture in order to accelerate KB Toys entrance into the online market and to expand the business of BrainPlay.com. KBkids.com is the successor to the business of BrainPlay.com, an online specialty toy retailer that was founded in August 1995. Substantially all of the assets and liabilities of BrainPlay.com were contributed to KBkids along with cash of $80 million and intangibles valued at $4 million from the Company in connection with the formation of the joint venture.

The Company believes that the combination of its strengths in merchandising, purchasing, site selection, distribution and cost-containment has made it a low-cost, value retailer well-positioned for future growth.

BUSINESS GROUPS

The Company’s principal businesses range across three retail industry groups; closeouts, toys and an online children’s products retail business. Sales and cost of sales during the last six years for each of the Company’s business groups appear in Item 6 “Selected Financial Data” included herein. The percent of net sales to total net sales by business group and gross profit as a percent to net sales by business group for each of the past three fiscal years is presented in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Overview” also included herein.

Financial information by business group, containing information on revenues, operating profit, depreciation and amortization, and capital expenditures for each of the last three fiscal years and identifiable assets for each of the last two fiscal years, appears in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Business Group Information” included herein.

RETAIL OPERATIONS

Closeout Stores. Closeout retailers provide a valuable service to manufacturers by purchasing excess product that generally result from production overruns, package changes, discontinued products and returns. Closeout retailers also take advantage of generally low prices in the off-season by buying and warehousing seasonal merchandise for future sale. As a result of these lower costs of goods sold, closeout retailers can offer merchandise at prices significantly lower than those offered by traditional retailers.

Recent trends in the retail industry are favorable to closeout retailers. These trends include retailer consolidations and just-in-time inventory processes, which have resulted in a shift of inventory risk from retailers to manufacturers. In addition, in order to maintain their market share in an increasingly competitive environment, manufacturers are introducing new products and new packaging on a more frequent basis. The Company believes that these trends have helped make closeout retailers an integral part of manufacturers’ overall distribution process. As a result, manufacturers are increasingly looking for larger, more sophisticated closeout retailers, such as the Company, that can purchase larger quantities of merchandise and can control the distribution and advertising of specific products.

The Closeout Stores operation is best known for its wide assortment of closeout merchandise and is the largest of its kind, operating 1,230 retail stores in 43 states. A large number of Closeout Stores operate profitably in relative close proximity. For example, 499 of the total 1,230 Closeout Stores operate in four states; California, Ohio, Texas and Florida. Management believes that there are substantial opportunities to increase store counts in existing markets as well as expanding in new markets.

Certain core categories of merchandise are carried on a continual basis, although the specific name-brands offered may change frequently. The Closeout Stores also offer a small but consistent line of basic items, strengthening their role as dependable, one-stop shops for everyday needs. In addition the stores feature seasonal items for every major holiday. To provide additional value to its customers Closeout Stores also offer private-label merchandise in selected product categories. Because of their low operating costs, the Closeout Stores are generally profitable within their first full year of operation.

Toy Stores. The Company has been in the toy retailing business since its inception and has significantly expanded its presence in the retail toy trade. The Toy Stores operation is America’s largest small-box toy retailer and second largest toy store chain. Excitement for name-brands, attention to value and convenience are the focus in 1,320 stores in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and Guam. The Toy Stores offer a broad variety of closeout toys, as well as currently promoted retail toys (known as “in-line toys”) and traditional toy merchandise. While in-line toys make up the largest portion of the assortment, closeouts represent approximately 22 percent and video hardware and software accounts for about 21 percent. Exclusives, collectibles and K•B’s own creations round out the merchandise mix.

Toy Stores operate under four different small-box store formats. Toy Stores have a large presence in enclosed shopping malls with 943 Toy Stores where they are usually the exclusive toy store. The balance of the Toy Stores are generally a smaller strip shopping center store or outlet mall store striving to appeal to customers seeking value and the convenience not offered by toy superstores. Enclosed mall and strip shopping center Toy Stores carry a combination of in-line toys and close-out merchandise. Toy Stores located in outlet malls carry primarily closeout toys. The Company also operates temporary stores during the holiday selling season which are open for approximately six to eight weeks and carry primarily closeout merchandise. These temporary stores provide increased sales and profits during the peak holiday selling season by utilizing vacant store space obtained on favorable terms.

KBkids.com. KBkids.com is one of the fastest growing online retailers with an exclusive focus on children’s products. The Internet has emerged as one of the fastest-growing communications, information and commerce mediums in history. Businesses’ and consumers’ rapid acceptance of the Internet as a communications, information and commerce platform has created the foundation for significant growth in business-to-consumer electronic commerce. KBkids.com integrates commerce, content and community and provides consumers with a more complete online children’s products destination.

Under various agreements the Company provides KBkids.com a number of services, including certain executive, human resources, legal, finance, treasury, tax, purchasing and merchandising services.

PURCHASING

An integral part of the Company’s business is the sourcing and purchasing of quality name-brand merchandise directly from manufacturers and other vendors at prices substantially below those paid by conventional retailers. The Company has built strong relationships with many name-brand manufacturers and has capitalized on its purchasing power in the closeout and toy marketplace in order to source merchandise that provides exceptional value to customers. The Company has the ability to source and purchase all of a manufacturer’s closeout merchandise in specific product categories and to control distribution in accordance with vendor instructions, thus providing a high level of service and convenience to these manufacturers. Also, the success of the Company’s toy and children’s products business depends in part upon its ability to purchase in-line toys and related merchandise at competitive prices and on competitive terms. The Company supplements its traditional name-brand closeout purchases with a limited amount of program buys and private-label merchandise. The Company expects its purchasing power will continue to enhance its ability to source high quality closeout merchandise and closeout and in-line toys for all of its stores at competitive prices.

The Company has seasoned buying teams with extensive purchasing experience, which has enabled the Company to develop successful long-term relationships with many of the largest and most recognized consumer-product and toy manufacturers in the United States. As a result of these relationships and the Company’s experience and reputation in the closeout industry, many manufacturers offer purchase opportunities to the Company prior to attempting to dispose of their merchandise through other channels.

The Company’s merchandise is purchased from foreign and domestic suppliers which provide the Company with multiple sources for each product category. In fiscal 1999, the Company’s top ten vendors accounted for approximately 26.6% of total purchases with no one vendor accounting for more than 8.5%.

The Company purchases approximately 20% to 25% of its products directly from overseas suppliers, and a material amount of its domestically purchased merchandise is also manufactured abroad. As a result, a significant portion of the Company’s merchandise supply is subject to certain risks including increased import duties and more restrictive quotas, loss of “most favored nation” trading status, currency fluctuations, work stoppages, transportation delays, economic uncertainties including inflation, foreign government regulations, political unrest and trade restrictions, including retaliation by the United States against foreign practices. While the Company believes that alternative domestic and foreign sources could supply merchandise to the Company, an interruption or delay in supply from China or the Company’s other foreign sources, or the imposition of additional duties, taxes or other charges on these imports, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS

All aspects of the retailing industry are highly competitive. The Company’s Closeout Stores compete with discount stores (such as Wal-Mart®, KMart® and Target®), deep discount drugstore chains and other value-oriented specialty retailers. The Company’s Toy Stores and KBkids.com competition includes: traditional store-based toy and children’s product retailers, major discount retailers, traditional software and video game retailers, online efforts of the traditional store-based retailers, other online retailers that sell children’s products, physical and online stores of entertainment entities that sell and license children’s products, catalog retailers of children’s products, vendors of children’s products that currently sell or may in the future sell some or all of their products directly online, Internet portals and online service providers that feature shopping services that include children’s products and various smaller online retailers of children’s specialty products. Additionally, the online commerce market presents new, rapidly evolving competitive challenges of its own. Certain of the Company’s competitors have greater financial, distribution, marketing and other resources than the Company.

The Company has no continuing contracts for the purchase of closeout merchandise and relies on buying opportunities from both existing and new sources, for which it competes with other closeout merchandisers and wholesalers. The Company believes that its management has long standing relationships with its suppliers and is competitively positioned to continue to seek new sources in order to maintain an adequate continuing supply of quality merchandise at attractive prices.

The Company continually evaluates possible candidates for acquisition and intends to continue to seek opportunities to expand its retail businesses.

SEASONALITY

The Company has experienced seasonality, with a significant percentage of its net sales and income being realized in the fourth fiscal quarter. Additionally, quarterly results can be affected by the timing of store openings and closings, the amount of net sales contributed by new and existing stores and the timing of certain holidays. Furthermore, in anticipation of increased sales activity during the fourth fiscal quarter, the Company purchases substantial amounts of inventory during the second and third fiscal quarters and hires a significant number of temporary employees to bolster its stores staffing during the fourth fiscal quarter.

The seasonality of the Company’s businesses also influences the Company’s demand for seasonal borrowings. The Company traditionally has drawn upon its seasonal credit lines in the first three fiscal quarters and has substantially repaid the borrowings during the fourth fiscal quarter.

ADVERTISING and PROMOTION

The Company uses a variety of marketing approaches to promote its stores to the public. These approaches vary by business, by market and by the time of year. The Company promotes grand openings of its stores through a variety of print and radio promotions. In general, the Company utilizes only those marketing methods that it believes provide an immediate and measurable return on investment.

Trademarks. The Company utilizes trademarks, service marks and tradedress (“intellectual property”) in its retail operations. The intellectual property is generally owned by intellectual property protection subsidiaries. The Company considers its intellectual property to be among its most valuable assets and where applicable, has registered,

or has applications pending, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The Company believes that having distinctive intellectual property is an important factor in identifying the Company and distinguishing it from others.

Closeout Stores. The Company’s marketing program for its Closeout Stores is designed to create an awareness of the broad range of quality, name-brand merchandise available at low prices providing customers an extreme value. The Closeout Stores utilize a combination of printed advertising circulars in all markets and television advertising in select markets. The Company currently distributes approximately 42 million two or four page circulars 25 weeks out of the year in all markets. Additionally, for 11 weeks of the year approximately 28 million two or four page circulars are distributed predominantly in eastern markets. The method of distribution includes a combination of newspaper inserts and direct mail. These circulars are created in-house and are distributed regionally in order to take advantage of market differences caused by climate or other factors. The circulars generally feature 35 to 42 products that vary each week. The Closeout Stores run television promotions in certain markets based upon factors unique to each market, including the number of stores, cost of local media and results of preliminary testing. The Closeout Stores run multiple 30 second television spots per week, each of which feature 2 to 4 highly recognizable, name-brand products. In-store promotions include periodic loudspeaker announcements featuring special bargains as well as humorous in-store signage to emphasize the significant values offered to the customer. The Closeout Stores continue to refine the use of television advertising to increase awareness of the stores, build a brand image, and to attract new and repeat customers.

Historically, the Closeout Stores total advertising expense as a percent of total net sales has been approximately 2.5% to 3.0%.

Toy Stores. The Toy Stores utilize a combination of a holiday promotion catalog as well as periodic in-store sales and store signs to promote their products. Advertising costs were 1.5% of total net sales in 1999. Enclosed shopping mall Toy Stores receive the benefit of large amounts of customer traffic. Similarly, Toy Stores located in strip centers and outlet malls have relied primarily on existing customer traffic and in-store signs to promote their merchandise.

KBkids.com. The primary elements of advertising mix include network and cable television, print, and broad reach online services. The marketing objective is designed to increase traffic to the online store, continue to build brand recognition, acquire new customers and build customer loyalty. Marketing expenditures are scheduled to capitalize on and respond to seasonal demand such as the holiday season. Certain marketing expenditures are discontinued or significantly curtailed during the post-holiday period when they are not cost effective. For the period June 25, 1999 to December 31, 1999, sales and marketing expenses were $58.7 million for KBkids.com.

KBkids.com has secured agreements with leading shopping portals, with positions in children’s products shopping areas. For example, under an agreement with AOL, KBkids.com is a “shopping anchor” in AOL’s children’s products shopping areas for kids, toys and babies. KBkids.com also has agreements with other shopping portals for prominent positioning in their online shopping areas. In addition to the large portal advertising arrangements, online advertising consists of banner advertising focused on web page results from searches or links related to children.

KBkids.com also leverages its relationship with KB Toys in integrated store promotions and circulars. The KB Toys circulars highlight products that are available at the online store and provide item numbers for these products to make purchasing easier on the web site. Signage and other promotional materials in the KB Toys stores include

the online store’s web address and AOL keyword appearing on KB Toys salespeople’s uniforms, purchase receipts, shopping bags and posters.

KBkids.com has an affiliate program under which other web sites can post the KBkids logo and link to the online store. Affiliates are compensated through a predetermined fee structure.

Kbkids.com has sponsored multiple events to build credibility with, and recognition by, parents, including title sponsorship of a nationally televised sporting event and sponsorship of the daily children’s television show, Teletubbies. Promotions include holiday discounts and coupons, giveaways of popular products, and sweepstakes to win trips and other items such as movie tickets.

KBkids.com also has a customer loyalty program offering customers frequent flyer miles on ten major airlines and other premium goods and services for every dollar spent at the online store.

WAREHOUSING and DISTRIBUTION

Closeout Stores and Toy Stores. An important aspect of the Company’s closeout and toy purchasing strategy involves its ability to warehouse and distribute merchandise quickly and efficiently. The Company positions its distribution network to enable quick turn of time sensitive product as well as providing longer term warehousing capabilities for off-season buys. Substantially all merchandise sold by the Closeout Stores and Toy Stores is received and processed for retail sale, as necessary, and distributed to the retail location from Company operated warehouse and distribution centers. Data pertaining to warehouse and distribution centers is herein under Item 2 Properties, Warehouse and Distribution.

KBkids.com. Fulfillment services, receiving, warehousing and shipping services for KBkids.com are outsourced under a direct marketing services agreement with Keystone Internet Services, Inc. (“Keystone”) a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hanover Direct. The agreement terminates on July 1, 2001 but may be renewed for two-year terms upon agreement of both parties at least 120 days before the end of the then current term. KBkids.com works in tandem with Keystone to manage and monitor order accuracy, fulfillment rate, shipment speed and overall delivery reliability and timeliness. Under the agreement, Keystone receives merchandise from suppliers, stores the merchandise in its warehouse and packs and ships the merchandise to our customers. In addition, Keystone receives, processes and refurbishes returns of our merchandise, and destocks and returns to our suppliers any rejected or overstock merchandise. The agreement also describes service standards that Keystone has agreed to follow in performing its services.

These inventory and fulfillment systems are fully integrated into the online store so that if an item is out of stock it cannot be added to a customer’s cart.

Customers are offered a selection of three levels of shipping service: next day delivery, second day delivery and ground delivery. UPS provides next day and second day delivery services while the United States Postal Service Priority Mail provides the ground delivery services.

OTHER OPERATIONS

The Company also sells merchandise wholesale comprised almost entirely of merchandise obtained through the same or shared opportunistic purchases of the retail operations. Advertising of wholesale merchandise is conducted primarily at trade shows and by mailings to past and potential customers. Wholesale customers include a wide and varied range of major national and regional retailers, as well as smaller retailers, manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers.

ASSOCIATES

At January 29, 2000, the Company had 65,000 active associates comprised of 20,800 full-time and 44,200 part-time associates. Temporary associates hired during the fall and winter holiday selling season increased the number of associates to a peak of approximately 83,500. Approximately two-thirds of the associates employed throughout the year are employed on a part-time basis. The relationship with associates is considered to be good, and the Company is not a party to any labor agreements.

Item 2 Properties

RETAIL OPERATIONS

Closeout Stores are located predominantly in strip shopping centers throughout the southwestern, midwestern, southern and mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. Individual stores range in size from 3,925 to 49,385 selling square feet and average approximately 18,934 selling square feet. In selecting suitable new store locations, the Company generally seeks retail space between 22,000 to 30,000 square feet in size. The average cost to open a new store in a leased facility is approximately $650,000, including inventory.

All Toy Store leases generally include advertising charges. In some locations, the leases provide formulas requiring the payment of a percentage of sales as additional rent. Such payments are generally only required when sales reach a specified level. The typical lease for the Company's Closeout Stores is for an initial term of five years with multiple, three to five year renewal options, while the typical lease for the Toy Stores is for an initial term of ten years with various renewal options.

OVERVIEW

The discussion and analysis presented below should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report.

New Business

On June 25, 1999, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and BrainPlay.com, Inc., an unaffiliated entity, entered into a Contribution Agreement to form KBkids.com LLC as a joint venture. KBkids.com LLC operates an online retail business offering toys, video games, software, videos and other children’s products. Under the Contribution Agreement, the Company received 80% of the membership units in KBkids.com LLC in exchange for contributing cash of $80,000,000 and intangibles valued at $4,000,000. BrainPlay.com received the remaining 20% of the membership units in exchange for contributing substantially all of its assets and liabilities including its Web site, technology infrastructure and management team.

Terms of the Contribution Agreement provide, among other matters, that the Company or its affiliates can not sell toy products on the Internet until December 31, 2001, or one year after the completion of a capital markets transaction, whichever comes first.

 
FORM 10-K Page 17


Table of Contents

In addition, as long as the Company owns a majority of the membership interests of KBkids.com LLC, or common stock of KBkids.com Inc. representing at least 10% of the outstanding voting power, neither the Company nor its affiliates can sell any toy products on the Internet unless they are “closeouts.”

Under various operating, service and supply agreements, the Company provides KBkids.com LLC a number of services including certain executive, human resources, legal, finance, treasury, tax, purchasing and merchandising services. The cost of these services are allocated according to established methodologies as determined at arms length.

KBkids.com Inc. Planned Offering of Common Stock and Reorganization

As contemplated by the Contribution Agreement and as further described in a Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 27, 2000, KBkids.com Inc. was formed to facilitate a public offering of stock.

Simultaneously with the consummation of a public offering, a number of structural changes would result as summarized below:

  •  KBkids.com Inc. would invest the net proceeds of a public offering in KBkids.com LLC, and in return KBkids.com Inc. would receive units of membership interest in KBkids.com LLC.
 
  •  KBkids.com Inc. would become the sole manager of KBkids.com LLC.
 
  •  The Company would contribute one membership unit in KBkids.com LLC to KBkids.com Inc. in exchange for one share of Class B common stock.
 
  •  A newly created subsidiary of KBkids.com Inc. would merge into BrainPlay.com Inc., with BrainPlay.com Inc. becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of KBkids.com Inc. In connection with this subsidiary merger, the equity holders of BrainPlay.com Inc., would receive shares (and/or options to acquire shares) of Class A common stock in KBkids.com Inc.

After this restructuring, KBkids.com LLC would be controlled by KBkids.com Inc., as sole manager of KBkids.com LLC. Additionally, the Company would have the right to exchange its membership units in KBkids.com LLC into an equivalent number of shares of Class A common stock of KBkids.com Inc.

After a public offering, each stockholder of KBkids.com Inc. would have a direct or indirect economic interest in KBkids.com LLC equal to the respective percentage of the aggregate voting power in KBkids.com Inc. held by them.

Business Operations

The Company is a leading value retailer specializing in closeout merchandise and toys. The Company is the largest retailer of closeout products and the largest enclosed mall-based toy retailer in the United States. The Company’s goal is to build upon its leadership position in closeout retailing (a growing segment of the retailing industry), toy retailing and children’s products by expanding its market presence in both existing and new markets. The Company believes that the combination of its strengths in merchandising, purchasing, site selection, distribution and cost containment has made it a low-cost value retailer well-positioned for future growth.

The Company has historically experienced, and expects to continue to experience, seasonal fluctuations, with a significant percentage of its net sales and income being realized in the fourth fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company’s quarterly results can be affected by the timing of store openings and closings, the amount of net sales contributed by new and existing stores and the timing of certain holidays. The following table illustrates the seasonality in the net sales and operating income.

FISCAL 1999 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1998

Net Sales Net sales increased to $4,700.2 million in fiscal 1999 from $4,193.7 million in fiscal 1998, an increase of $506.5 million, or 12.1%. This increase was attributable to sales from 168 new stores offset in part by the closing of 68 stores, a comparable store sales increase of 5.6% and $26.2 million of net sales from the Company’s online children’s products venture KBkids.com which commenced operations on June 25, 1999.

Closeout Stores’ net sales increased $381.9 million, or 15.2%, to $2,892.3 million in fiscal 1999 from $2,510.4 million in fiscal 1998. Contributing to this increase was the addition of 102 net new stores during the year and a 7.5% increase in comparable stores sales. Additionally, Closeout sales benefited in 1999 from improved seasonal goods and furniture sales.

Net sales of Toy Stores increased $97.4 million, or 5.9%, in fiscal 1999 to $1,740.4 million from $1,643.0 million in the prior fiscal year. This improvement reflects a comparable store sales increase of 2.7%, a net reduction of two stores during the fiscal year, and a decline in video product comparable sales offset by increased non video categories.

Gross Profit Gross profit increased $234.3 million, or 13.8%, in fiscal 1999 to $1,936.7 million from $1,702.4 million in fiscal 1998. Gross profit as a percent to sales was 41.2% (41.4% net of KBkids.com) in 1999 compared to 40.6% in the previous year.

Closeout Stores’ gross profit as a percent to sales was 43.3% in 1999 compared to 42.5% for 1998. Closeout Stores’ gross margin improved as the aggressive pricing strategies during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 1998 to restore customer traffic while rebuilding store inventories were not anniversaried. Closeout stores also benefited from the sell through of seasonal products during the fourth quarter which resulted in an improved markdown realization.

Toy Stores’ (excluding KBkids.com) gross profit was 38.4% in 1999 compared to 38.1% in 1998 reflecting the reduced sales volume of lower margin video products during fiscal 1999.

Gross profit of KBkids.com was $3.3 million or 12.8% as a percent to net sales. Accounting policies of KBkids.com recognizes certain product delivery costs in the cost of products sold.

Selling and Administrative Expenses Selling and administrative expenses increased $267.6 million in fiscal 1999 from $1,498.7 million in fiscal 1998. As a percent to sales, selling and administrative expenses were 37.6% in comparison to 35.7% in 1998. For 1999, selling and administrative expenses include operations of KBkids.com from its date of inception on June 25, 1999, which increased the year-to-date percent to sales by 1.4%. On a comparative basis, fiscal 1998 selling and administrative expenses were below normal levels reflective of lower costs attributable to the reduced flow of merchandise to Closeout Stores during that period. Fiscal 1999 selling and administrative expenses are reflective of increased compensation costs and higher distribution and transportation expenses as Closeout Stores’ inventory levels were restored to planned levels.

Interest Expense Interest expense increased to $25.3 million in fiscal 1999 from $24.3 million in fiscal 1998. The increase was attributable to higher weighted average debt levels for seasonal borrowings as the Company completed its strategic realignment of merchandise inventories to traditional levels.

Income Taxes The effective tax rate of the Company was 39.5% in 1999 compared to 39.0% in fiscal 1998.

FISCAL 1998 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1997

Net Sales Net sales increased to $4,193.7 million in fiscal 1998 from $4,055.3 million in fiscal 1997, an increase of $138.4 million, or 3.4%. This increase was attributable to sales from 242 new stores, offset in part by the closing of 66 stores and a comparable store sales decline of 1.3%.

Closeout Stores’ net sales increased $57.9 million, or 2.4%, to $2,510.4 million in fiscal 1998 from $2,452.5 million in fiscal 1997. Contributing to this increase was the addition of 103 net new stores during the year offset by a fall in comparable stores sales of 2.1%. Sales in the closeout segment were negatively impacted by appreciably lower Closeout store inventory levels in 1998 resulting from the strategic realignment in merchandise mix to offer customers a wider selection of value-oriented, brand-name merchandise. Additionally, the continued integration of Mac Frugal’s operations with the Company’s existing Closeout operations, and the implementation of a new merchandise management system, and the startup of a new distribution center contributed to the lower store-level inventories. Restoration of Closeout Stores inventories to new planned levels was substantially completed at the end of fiscal 1998.

Net sales of Toy Stores increased $80.6 million, or 5.2%, in fiscal 1998 to $1,643.0 million from $1,562.5 million in the prior fiscal year. This improvement reflects the addition of 73 net new stores during the fiscal year offset by a comparable store sales decline of 0.2%. As with most of the toy industry, Toy Stores’ 1998 sales were negatively influenced by the reduced number of popular new toy introductions compared to 1997.

Gross Profit Gross profit increased $82.5 million, or 5.1%, in fiscal 1998 to $1,702.4 million from $1,619.9 million in fiscal 1997. Gross profit as a percent to sales was 40.6% in 1998 compared to 39.9% in the previous year. In connection with the Mac Frugal’s merger, the Company recorded a fourth quarter 1997 charge of $70,000,000 ($42,700,000 after tax, or $.38 per diluted common share) to reflect costs for discontinued products, inventory consolidation and retail price equalization for the combined inventory assortment. This charge reduced gross profit as a percent of sales by 1.8% in fiscal 1997.

Closeout Stores’ gross profit as a percent to sales was 42.5% in 1998 compared to 40.0% (42.9% excluding the effect of the charge noted above) in 1997. Closeout Stores’ gross margin was negatively influenced by aggressive pricing strategies during the third and fourth quarters in order to restore customer traffic while rebuilding store inventories. Toy Stores’ gross profit was 38.1% in 1998 compared to 40.3% in 1997 reflecting a merchandise mix at fiscal 1997 year end which carried a lower initial markup than the prior fiscal year end combined with the increase in video game sales.

Selling and Administrative Expenses Selling and administrative expenses increased $111.7 million in fiscal 1998 from $1,387.0 million in fiscal 1997. As a percent to sales, selling and administrative expenses were 35.7% in comparison to 34.2% (before merger and other related costs) in 1997.

As Closeout Stores’ inventory levels were restored closer to planned levels throughout the second half of 1998, the company incurred a higher-than-historical ratio of selling and administrative expenses. This, in combination with the decline of fixed cost leverage from reduced comparable store sales, contributed to the rise in the percent of selling and administrative expenses to net sales.

Interest Expense Interest expense declined to $24.3 million in fiscal 1998 from $25.7 million in fiscal 1997. The decrease was attributable to lower weighted average debt levels and a lower effective interest rate attributable to seasonal borrowings.

Income Taxes The effective tax rate of the Company was 39% in 1998 compared to 47% in fiscal 1997. This decline is principally associated with the merger and other charges in connection with the business combination with Mac Frugal’s in 1997.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The primary sources of liquidity for the Company have been cash flow from operations and borrowings under available credit facilities. Long-term debt as a percent of total capitalization (total long-term debt and stockholders’ equity) was 4.4% at January 29, 2000, compared with 20.0% and 10.0% at each of the respective prior fiscal year ends. Working capital is $708.9 million at January 29, 2000, and net cash from operating activities increased $195.7 million in 1999 to $251.9 million, as long term-debt declined $235.1 million to $60.5 million. This data reflects the strength of the Company’s balance sheet and the ability to absorb debt financing as, and if, necessary.

Capital expenditures for the last three fiscal years have been $147.2 million, $166.6 million and $146.5 million respectively, and were used primarily to fund new store openings and distribution center expansions. The capital expenditure requirements anticipated for 2000 are approximately $165 million primarily to support new store expansion and warehouse and equipment requirements.

The Company has a Revolving Credit Facility which provides senior bank financing in an aggregate principal amount of up to $700 million. The facility has a maturity date of May 15, 2003. From time to time the Company also utilizes uncommitted credit facilities, subject to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, to supplement short-term borrowing requirements. At January 29, 2000, approximately $580.5 million was available for borrowings under the Revolver and $157.4 million of uncommitted credit facilities were available, subject to the terms of the revolving credit facility.

Any proceeds from a public offering of stock of KBkids.com Inc. would be invested in the development, operations and expansion of that business. In the absence of a public stock offering of KBkids.com Inc., the future operating cash requirements, which may be significant, of KBkids.com LLC would be provided pursuant to terms of the Operating Agreement or alternatively as may be agreed to by the members of the joint venture.

The Company’s $100 million of 7% Subordinated Notes mature in the year 2000 and are classified as a current liability in the accompanying 1999 consolidated balance sheet.

The Company is subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on its financing, investing and cash management activities. The Company does not expect changes in interest rates in 2000 to have a material effect on income or cash flows; however, there can be no assurances that interest rates will not materially change.

The Company continues to believe that it has, or if necessary has the ability to obtain, adequate resources to fund ongoing operating requirements, future capital expenditures related to the expansion of existing businesses, development of new projects and currently maturing obligations. Additionally, management is not aware of any current trends, events, demands, commitments or uncertainties which reasonably can be expected to have a material impact on the liquidity, capital resources, financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Item 8 Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Board of Directors of Consolidated Stores Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CONSOLIDATED STORES CORPORATION and subsidiaries as of January 29, 2000, and January 30, 1999, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 29, 2000. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a)2. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of CONSOLIDATED STORES CORPORATION and subsidiaries at January 29, 2000, and January 30, 1999, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 29, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies note to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for pre-opening costs in 1998.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

The Company is the nation’s largest closeout retailer and largest mall-based toy retailer with stores located in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and Guam. As a value-oriented retailer specializing in closeout merchandise and toys, the Company operated a total of 2,550 stores at January 29, 2000, comprised of 1,230 retail closeout specialty stores under the names ODD LOTS, BIG LOTS, BIG LOTS FURNITURE, MAC FRUGAL’S BARGAINS • CLOSE-OUTS, and PIC ’N’ SAVE and 1,320 retail toy and closeout toy stores under the names K•B TOYS, K•B TOY WORKS, and K•B TOY OUTLET. Online shopping for children’s products is conducted under the name of KBkids.com.

Fiscal Year

The Company follows the concept of a 52/53 week fiscal year which ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries which Consolidated Stores Corporation directly or indirectly has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies. The accounts of KBkids.com are included for the period from June 26, 1999 (date of inception) through December 31, 1999. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of significant contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have an original maturity of three months or less. Cash equivalents are stated at cost which approximates market value.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, first-in first-out basis, primarily on the retail method.

Property and Equipment

Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight line method for financial reporting purposes over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Service lives are principally forty years for buildings and from four to ten years for other property and equipment. The Company periodically reviews long-lived assets and certain intangible assets when indicators of impairments exist and if the value of the assets is impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — continued

Intangible Assets

Goodwill, tradenames and other intangible assets are amortized over periods of two to fifteen years.

Investments

Noncurrent investments in equity securities are classified as other assets in the consolidated balance sheets and are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains on equity securities classified as available-for-sale are recorded in other comprehensive income net of applicable income taxes.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes retail sales in its stores at the time the customer takes possession of merchandise. Online retail sales and Wholesale sales are recognized at the time merchandise is shipped to the customer. All sales are net of estimated returns and allowances and exclude sales tax.

Accounting Principle Change

In the fourth quarter of 1998 the Company changed its method of accounting for pre-opening costs in conformity with Statement of Position 98-5, “Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities” as promulgated by The American Institute of Certified Public Accountant’s Accounting Standards Executive Committee. Historically, non-capital expenditures associated with opening new stores were charged to expense over the first twelve months of store operations. The change involves expensing these and other preopening costs as incurred rather than capitalizing and subsequently amortizing such costs. The change in accounting principle resulted in a write-off of capitalized costs as of February 1, 1998 totaling $12,649,000 net of tax benefit of $8,087,000. The effect of this change in accounting principle is considered immaterial to all quarters of fiscal 1998.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 133 in the year ended February 2, 2002. SFAS No. 133 establishes methods of accounting for derivative financial instruments and hedging activities related to those instruments as well as other hedging activities. In June 1999, SFAS No. 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133 — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133,” was issued. This amendment delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

NEW BUSINESS and BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

New Business

On June 25, 1999, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and BrainPlay.com, Inc., an unaffiliated entity, entered into a Contribution Agreement to form KBkids.com LLC as a joint venture. KBkids.com LLC operates an online retail business offering toys, video games, software and videos. Under the Contribution Agreement, the Company received 80% of the membership units in KBkids.com LLC in exchange for contributing cash of $80,000,000 and intangibles valued at $4,000,000. BrainPlay.com, Inc., received the remaining 20% of the membership units

NEW BUSINESS and BUSINESS COMBINATIONS — continued

in exchange for contributing substantially all of its assets and liabilities including its Web site, technology infrastructure and management team.

Terms of the Contribution Agreement provide, among other matters, that the Company or its affiliates can not sell toy products on the Internet until December 31, 2001, or one year after the completion of a capital markets transaction, whichever comes first. In addition, as long as the Company owns a majority of the membership interests of KBkids.com LLC, or common stock of KBkids.com Inc. representing at least 10% of the outstanding voting power, neither the Company nor its affiliates can sell any toy products on the Internet, unless they are “closeouts.”

Under various operating, service and supply agreements, the Company provides KBkids.com LLC a number of services, including certain executive, human resources, legal, finance, treasury, tax, purchasing and merchandising services. The cost of these services are allocated according to established methodologies as determined at arms length.

Losses, net of minority interest and related taxes, attributable to operations of KBkids.com included in the fiscal 1999 statement of income are $33.3 million, or $.30 per diluted common share.

Planned Offering of Common Stock and Reorganization

As contemplated by the Contribution Agreement and as further described in a Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 27, 2000, KBkids.com Inc. was formed to facilitate a public offering of stock.

Simultaneously with the consummation of the offering, a number of structural changes would result as summarized below:

  KBkids.com Inc. would invest the net proceeds of the offering in KBkids.com LLC, and in return KBkids.com Inc. would receive units of membership interest in KBkids.com LLC.
 
  KBkids.com Inc. would become the sole manager of KBkids.com LLC.
 
  The Company would contribute one membership unit in KBkids.com LLC to KBkids.com Inc. in exchange for one share of Class B common stock.
 
  A newly created subsidiary of KBkids.com Inc. would merge into BrainPlay.com, Inc. with BrainPlay.com, Inc. becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of KBkids.com Inc. In connection with this subsidiary merger, the equity holders of BrainPlay.com, Inc. would receive shares (and/or options to acquire shares) of Class A common stock in KBkids.com Inc.

After this restructuring, KBkids.com LLC would be controlled by KBkids.com Inc. as sole manager of KBkids.com LLC. Additionally, the Company would have the right to exchange its membership units in KBkids.com LLC into an equivalent number of shares of Class A common stock of KBkids.com Inc.

NEW BUSINESS and BUSINESS COMBINATIONS — continued

After a public offering, each stockholder of KBkids.com Inc. would have a direct or indirect economic interest in KBkids.com LLC equal to the respective percentage of the aggregate voting power in KBkids.com Inc. held by them.

Business Combination

In January 1998, 23,371,639 common shares were issued in exchange for all outstanding common shares of Mac Frugal’s Bargains • Close-outs, Inc. (Mac Frugal’s) a closeout retailer. The combination constituted a tax-free reorganization and has been accounted for as a pooling of interests.

In connection with the Mac Frugal’s combination, the Company recorded a fourth quarter charge to operating expense of $45,000,000 ($40,500,000 after taxes, or $.36 per diluted common share) for direct and other related costs pertaining to the combination. Merger transaction costs were primarily comprised of fees for professional services, severance and similar related costs. Additionally, the Company recorded a $70,000,000 ($42,700,000 after tax, or $.38 per diluted common share) charge to cost of sales in the fourth quarter of 1997 for combination related expenses for discontinued products, inventory consolidation and retail price equalization for the combined inventories. In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company utilized $31,892,000 relating to these charges and substantially all of the remaining $83,108,000 balance was utilized in fiscal 1998.

Excluding the cost of sales charge and merger and other related charges, income per share, assuming dilution, would have been $1.51 in fiscal 1997.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Pension Benefits

The Company has a qualified defined benefit pension plan covering certain employees hired on or before March 31, 1994, and a non-qualified supplemental defined benefit pension plan effective January 1, 1996, covering a select group of highly compensated employees to ensure the overall retirement pension benefits frozen for such group of employees under the qualified plan. Benefits under each plan are based on credited years of service and the employee’s compensation during the last five years of employment.

LEASES

Leased property consists primarily of the Company’s retail stores and certain warehouse space. Many of the store leases have rent escalations and provide that the Company pay for real estate taxes, utilities, liability insurance and maintenance. Certain leases provide for contingent rents, in addition to the fixed monthly rent, based on a percentage of store sales above a specified level. In addition, some leases provide options to extend the original terms for an additional two to twenty years. Minimum lease commitments as of January 29, 2000, are as follows:

Stockholder Rights Plan

Each share of the Company’s common stock has one Right attached. Each Right trades with the common stock and entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one one-thousandth of a share of Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $125 per unit, subject to adjustment. In general, the Rights will separate from the common stock and a distribution date will occur upon the earlier of (1) 10 business days following a public announcement that a person or group has acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Stock Acquisition Date”), or (2) 10 business days, or a later date specified by the Company’s Board of Directors, following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group beneficially owning 20% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock.

If a person becomes the beneficial owner of more than 20% of the outstanding shares of common stock, except pursuant to an offer for all outstanding shares of common stock which at least a majority of the specified disinterested members of the Board of Directors determines is fair to and otherwise in the best interests of the Company and stockholders, each holder of a Right will have the right to receive, upon exercise, shares of common stock having a value equal to two times the exercise price of the Right. The Company may substitute cash, property or other securities for shares of common stock to allow the full exercise of the Rights. All Rights that are, or under certain circumstances as specified in the Rights Agreement, were, beneficially owned by the 20% stockholder will be null and void.

If, at any time following the Stock Acquisition Date, (1) the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction in which the Company does not survive, other than a merger following an offer approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors, or (2) 50% or more of the Company’s assets, cash flow or earning power is sold or transferred, each holder of a Right (except Rights which have previously been voided) will have the right to receive, upon exercise, common shares of the acquiring company having a value equal to two times the exercise price of the Right. If Rights cannot be exercised for common stock of the acquiring company, holders of the Rights will be entitled to put the Rights to the 20% stockholder for cash in an amount equal to the exercise price.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY — continued

In general, at any time until 10 business days following the Stock Acquisition Date, Consolidated may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01 per Right (payable in cash, Common Stock or other consideration deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors). Once the Board of Directors orders redemption of the Rights, the Rights will terminate. Unless earlier redeemed by the Company the Rights expire on April 18, 2009, and at no time have voting power.

Preferred Stock

In conjunction with the Stockholder Rights Plan the Company has reserved 600,000 shares of preferred stock for issuance thereunder.

STOCK PLANS

Stock Compensation Plans

The Company previously adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation”, and as permitted by this standard, will continue to apply the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 to its stock options and other stock-based employee compensation awards.

If compensation cost for stock options awards had been determined based on the fair value at the grant date, consistent with the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, pro forma net income and income per share would have been as follows:

Stock Option Plans

Consolidated Stores Corporation 1996 Performance Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”) provides for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock, performance units, stock equivalent units and stock appreciation rights (SAR’s). The number of newly issued shares of common stock available for issuance under the Incentive Plan is 3,125,000 plus an additional 1% of the total number of issued shares, including any Treasury Stock, at the start of the Company’s fiscal year plus shares available but not issued in previous years of the Incentive Plan. Total newly issued shares of common stock available for use under the Incentive Plan shall not exceed 15% of the total issued and outstanding Common Stock as of any measurement date. At January 29, 2000, 9,120,811 shares of common stock were available for issuance under the Incentive Plan. The term of each award is determined by a committee of the Board of Directors charged with administering the Incentive Plan. Stock options granted under the Incentive Plan may be either nonqualified or incentive stock options and the exercise price may not be less than the fair market value, as defined, of the underlying common stock on the date of award. The award price of a SAR is to be a fixed amount not less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock at the date of award. Upon an effective change in control of the Company, all awards outstanding under the Incentive Plan automatically vest.

The Company has a Director Stock Option Plan (“DSOP”), for nonemployee directors, pursuant to which up to 781,250 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued upon exercise of options granted thereunder. The DSOP is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors pursuant to an established formula. Neither the Board of Directors nor the Compensation Committee exercise any discretion in administration of the DSOP. Grants are made annually, 90 days following the annual meeting of stockholders, at an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The present formula provides for an annual grant of 5,000 options to each nonemployee director which becomes fully exercisable over a three-year period: 20% the first year and 40% each subsequent year, beginning one year subsequent to grant.

The 1999 KBkids.com LLC Option Plan (“1999 Plan”) reserves for use 6,000,000 units of KBkids.com LLC consisting of nonqualified options entitling rights and obligations upon exercise accorded to Class C Members. The Board of Managers is responsible for the administration of the 1999 Plan which authorizes the grant of options to officers, managers and other key employees, and consultants of KBkids.com and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Options granted are exercisable for a term of up to ten years from their grant date. The exercise price of each option award is established by the Board of Managers at the date of grant. Except as otherwise provided in a particular option grant, an award is not transferable, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. An option award may be exercised during the lifetime of the holder of the award only by the holder, (or, if applicable, their permitted transferee) or in the event of disability, the holder’s personal representative. Awards granted under the 1999 Plan are subject to adjustment upon a recapitalization, unit split, unit dividend, merger, reorganization, liquidation, extraordinary dividend or other similar event affecting the outstanding units. Terms of the 1999 Plan provide that, in the event of a public offering of stock, KBkids.com shall cause the public entity to (a) adopt an incentive equity plan, (b) either assume all outstanding options granted under the 1999
