ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS On November 4, 1996, Smithfield Foods, Inc. ("Smithfield Foods" or the "Company") entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Lykes Bros. Inc. ("LBI"), a privately held company headquartered in Tampa, Florida, and LBI's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sunnyland, Inc. ("Sunnyland"), Premium Pork, Inc. ("Premium") and LMJ Distribution Center, Inc. ("LMJ"), pursuant to which the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of LBI, Sunnyland, Premium and LMJ used in the business of processing, distributing and selling pork and other meat products (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Lykes Meat Group"). Lykes Meat Group's principal facilities are four meat processing plants located at Plant City, Florida; Thomasville, Georgia; Quitman, Georgia; and Moultrie, Georgia. Lykes Meat Group also operates a distribution center in Thomasville, Georgia. Lykes Meat Group was named Lykes Meat Group, Inc. after the acquisition. Lykes Meat Group markets a full line of processed meats primarily in the Southern and Southeastern United States under a variety of brand names, including LYKES, SUNNYLAND, and BROOKS COUNTY. The closing of the transaction occurred on November 4, 1996. The purchase price paid to LBI at closing was determined pursuant to arms-length negotiations and consisted of $28.3 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. The cash purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustments made on the November 4, 1996 closing balance sheet. The Company expects that the purchase price adjustment will be determined on or before February 3, 1997 and that such adjustment will not result in a material change to the purchase price. The Company financed the cash purchase price with borrowings under the Company's existing $255.0 million revolving credit facility. The meat processing plant at Moultrie, Georgia has been closed since June 1996. The Company presently intends to operate the remaining facilities of Lykes Meat Group as a separate operating subsidiary or subsidiaries of Smithfield Foods. The description of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement is qualified entirely by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

These financial statements are the responsibility of management of Lykes Meat Group; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

The accompanying Notes to Combined Financial Statements are an integral part of these financial statements. (6) Lykes Meat Group Notes to Combined Financial Statements September 30, 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Basis of Presentation Pursuant to a Purchase Agreement dated November 4, 1996, LMG, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Smithfield Foods, Inc. ("Smithfield"), acquired the operations and substantially all the assets of Lykes Bros. Inc.'s ("LBI" or "Parent") business of processing, distributing and selling pork and other meat products in exchange for $28,278,685 in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. The final purchase price to be paid is contingent upon any purchase price adjustments made on the November 4, 1996 closing balance sheet, which is anticipated to be completed in early 1997. The assets acquired consist of the meat processing division of LBI and all the stock of Sunnyland, Inc. ("SLI"), Premium Pork, Inc. ("PPI") and LMJ Distribution Center, Inc. ("LMJ") (collectively known as "Lykes Meat Group"). Lykes Meat Group's principal facilities consist of four meat processing plants located in Plant City, Florida; Thomasville, Georgia; Quitman, Georgia; and Moultrie, Georgia. Lykes Meat Group also operates a distribution center in Thomasville, Georgia. LMG, Inc. changed its name to Lykes Meat Group, Inc. after the acquisition. Prior to the acquisition, certain accounts of Lykes Meat Group were included in the accounts of LBI and were not presented as those of a separate reporting entity. The accompanying combined financial statements present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Lykes Meat Group on a carved out basis as if Lykes Meat Group had been an independent reporting entity for all periods presented. The combined statements of operations include all revenues and costs directly attributable to Lykes Meat Group and certain corporate expenses of approximately $7.6 million, $6.9 million and $8.1 million in fiscal years 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Corporate expenses have historically been allocated to Lykes Meat Group based on the nature of the expense. The accompanying combined financial statements include additional expenses that have been allocated, principally on the basis of Lykes Meat Group's sales and Parent's equity in relation to LBI's sales and investments in its other subsidiaries and divisions. Allocated expenses include direct and indirect administrative services provided by LBI and certain of its subsidiaries and divisions, such as employee benefits, human resources, labor relations, corporate taxes, legal services, data processing, customer service, training and other similar overhead costs. All of the allocations and estimates in the combined statements of operations are based on assumptions that Lykes Meat Group management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. However, these allocations and estimates are not necessarily indicative of the costs and expenses that would have resulted if Lykes Meat Group had operated as a separate entity. (7) Lykes Meat Group Notes to Combined Financial Statements September 30, 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Use of Estimates Lykes Meat Group prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclose contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and report amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Principles of Combination The combined financial statements include the accounts of SLI, PPI, LMJ and the meat processing division of LBI. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Cash Management System Lykes Meat Group historically participated in LBI's cash management system which provides for reimbursement of certain bank disbursement accounts on a daily basis. As a result, checks issued but not yet presented for payment in the amount of $4,859,437 and $7,013,902 at September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, are classified as accounts payable. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by an average cost method and includes all direct and indirect manufacturing costs attributable to production, such as raw materials, labor and overhead. Inventories consist of the following: September 30, 1996 1995 Finished goods $ 5,084,273 $ 6,356,653 Work in progress 918,429 1,533,537 Raw materials and supplies 6,031,973 6,961,069 --------------- --------------- $ 12,034,675 $ 14,851,259 --------------- --------------- Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated over their useful lives; 10-15 years for land improvements, 10-31 years for buildings and improvements and 2-7 years for machinery and equipment, using the straight-line method. When an asset is sold or otherwise retired, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and a gain or loss is recorded on its disposition. (8) Lykes Meat Group Notes to Combined Financial Statements September 30, 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; renewals and improvements are capitalized. Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets Prepaid expenses and other assets are recorded at cost and include amounts paid for insurance, non-direct response marketing programs and cash surrender value in life insurance policies. The non-direct response marketing programs are prepaid costs for advertisement flyers in retail outlets and a sweepstakes contest, both of which took place in October 1996. Earnings Per Share Due to the acquisition of Lykes Meat Group by LMG, Inc. and Lykes Meat Group's historical capital structure, earnings per share are not considered meaningful. As a result, no earnings per share amounts are included in these financial statements. Income Taxes Lykes Meat Group is included in the consolidated federal income tax return filed by its parent. Federal and state income tax provisions are computed as though Lykes Meat Group filed a separate income tax return. Lykes Meat Group recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at currently enacted tax rates. For the combined statements of cash flows, supplemental disclosures related to cash paid for income taxes are not presented as the amounts paid by Lykes Meat Group cannot be specifically identified. 2. Impairment of Operating Facilities: In conjunction with the sale of Lykes Meat Group to LMG, Inc., Lykes Meat Group recorded a $5,522,728 loss during fiscal 1996 which was attributed to the Plant City and PPI operating facilities. It was determined that the cash flows associated with these facilities were less than the carrying value. 3. Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities: September 30, 1996 1995 Accrued severance and vacation $ 1,681,922 $ 1,033,677 Restructuring costs - 1,499,500 Other 2,318,045 2,745,980 --------------- --------------- $ 3,999,967 $ 5,279,157 --------------- --------------- (9) Lykes Meat Group Notes to Combined Financial Statements September 30, 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.

Income Taxes: Income taxes consist of the following components:
For the years ended September 30, 1996 1995 1994 Deferred Federal $ 8,738,795 $ 2,692,657 $ 6,411,627 State 899,227 277,076 659,760 ----------------- ------------------ ------------------ 9,638,022 2,969,733 7,071,387 Change in valuation allowance (9,638,022) (2,969,733) (7,071,387) ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ $ - $ - $ - ------------------ ------------------ ------------------
Lykes Meat Group's effective tax rate approximates the statutory federal and state rates for all three years. For all periods presented, no tax benefit for future deductible amounts and carryforwards has been recorded by Lykes Meat Group. It was determined that the tax benefit for income taxes currently refundable could not be realized by Lykes Meat Group if Lykes Meat Group had been a separate taxpayer. Deferred income taxes primarily relate to the following: September 30, 1996 1995 Net operating loss carryforwards $ 21,172,191 $ 12,646,424 Accrued expenses 3,071,067 4,038,546 Loss on impairment of assets 2,071,023 - Bad debt reserves 448,845 911,250 Depreciation (1,374,628) (1,770,181) Other (119,825) (195,388) --------------- --------------- 25,268,673 15,630,651 Deferred asset valuation allowance (25,268,673) (15,630,651) --------------- --------------- $ - $ - --------------- --------------- As of September 30, 1996 and 1995, Lykes Meat Group has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $56.5 million and $33.7 million, respectively, which are available to offset future taxable income through 2011. A deferred asset valuation was (10) Lykes Meat Group Notes to Combined Financial Statements September 30, 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- provided as of September 30, 1996 and 1995 since the utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards could not be assured in the future. Since LMG, Inc. purchased the assets of the meat processing division of LBI, any net operating loss carryforwards attributable to the meat processing division will remain with LBI. The amount of net operating loss carryforwards attributable to SLI, PPI and LMJ will be subject to an annual limitation in accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. 6. Pension and Other Retirement Plans: Benefit Plans Lykes Meat Group employees participated in various benefit plans provided by LBI, including health and life insurance, retirement savings, and a non-contributory defined benefit plan that cover most full-time employees. Additionally, a non-qualified contributory plan (Management Security Plan) was provided for certain insurable key managers. The cost of these plans was allocated to Lykes Meat Group, principally on the basis of Lykes Meat Group's sales and Parent's equity in relation to LBI's sales and investments in its other subsidiaries and divisions. Lykes Meat Group management believes this allocation is reasonable; however, the costs allocated to Lykes Meat Group are not necessarily indicative of the benefit plan costs that would have been incurred if Lykes Meat Group had operated as a separate entity. LBI makes payments on behalf of Lykes Meat Group under a labor contract into a multi-employer pension plan trust established for its union employees at the Plant City facility. Under ERISA, as amended by the Multi-Employer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1980, an employer is liable for a proportionate share of the plan's unfunded vested benefits. As of the most recent Annual Return filing on Form 5500 for the period July 1, 1994 through June 30, 1995, the plan reported a current value of plan assets in excess of the actuarial present value of accumulated benefits. The relative position of each employer with respect to actuarial present value of accumulated benefits and net assets available for benefits, however, is not available to Lykes Meat Group. As a result of the sale of Lykes Meat Group, LBI no longer participates in this plan. LMG, Inc. has assumed liability for funding the plan on a prospective basis. Postretirement Benefits LBI provides medical, dental and life insurance benefits to retirees of Lykes Meat Group and their survivors. Benefits under these plans were allocated to Lykes Meat Group, principally on the basis of Lykes Meat Group's sales and Parent's equity in relation to LBI's sales and investments in its other subsidiaries and divisions. Lykes Meat Group management believes this allocation is reasonable; however, the costs allocated are not necessarily indicative of the postretirement benefit costs that would have been incurred if Lykes Meat Group had operated as a separate entity. (11) Lykes Meat Group Notes to Combined Financial Statements September 30, 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. Related Party Transactions: Lykes Meat Group, through the normal course of business, is charged various administrative services such as employee benefits, human resources, labor relations, corporate taxes, legal services, data processing, customer service, training, insurance coverage, selling and delivery costs by LBI and certain of its subsidiaries and divisions. Such related party services were $15,468,330, $16,398,165 and $17,075,064 for the years ended September 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. In conjunction with LBI's cash management system, Lykes Meat Group obtains funds from LBI to assist in funding its operations. Such advances are recorded in Lykes Meat Group's combined financial records as advances from parent. Certain assets and liabilities related to pension and other retirement plans (Note 6) have been reclassified from advances from parent to properly present the associated asset or liability in these stand alone financial statements. During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the average advances from LBI were $66,109,869, $55,725,887 and $46,919,084, respectively. Interest expense related to these advances is not reflected in the financial statements as LBI does not charge its subsidiaries interest for proceeds advanced to them. 8. Restructuring of Operations: On August 3, 1994, Lykes Meat Group adopted a plan to restructure its Plant City and Thomasville operations including the following: significant realignment and downsizing of operations, refurbishment of the Thomasville operations, elimination of low margin and unprofitable product lines and a partial shut-down of the Plant City operating facility. The scope of this initial plan was expanded on July 17, 1995 to further consolidate and down-size operations. The restructuring resulted in the termination of approximately 340 hourly and salaried employees over the two-year period. In connection with these restructuring plans, Lykes Meat Group recorded charges to earnings of $1,376,926 and $1,436,973 in fiscal years ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

See the accompanying Notes to Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements. (15) SMITHFIELD FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) Basis of Reporting The unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements of Smithfield Foods, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") are provided to give effect to the acquisition on November 4, 1996, of the operations and substantially all of the assets of Lykes Bros. Inc.'s ("LBI") business of processing, distributing and selling pork and other meat products in exchange for $28.3 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. The cash purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustments made on the November 4, 1996 closing balance sheet. The Company expects that the purchase price adjustment will be determined on or before February 3, 1997 and that such adjustment will not result in a material change to the purchase price. The assets acquired consist of the meat processing division of LBI and all of the stock of Sunnyland, Inc., Premium Pork, Inc. and LMJ Distribution Center, Inc. (collectively the "Lykes Meat Group"). The pro forma information is based on the historical financial statements of the Company and Lykes Meat Group giving effect to the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the combined historical or future results of operations or financial position that would have been or will be reported had the assumptions and adjustments been transacted as described below. The pro forma combined balance sheet as of October 27, 1996 (September 30, 1996 for Lykes Meat Group) presents the financial position of the Company assuming the acquisition had been completed as of that date. The pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended April 28, 1996 (for the twelve months ended March 31, 1996 for Lykes Meat Group) and for the twenty-six weeks ended October 27, 1996 (for the six months ended September 30, 1996 for Lykes Meat Group) present the results of operations of the combined entities assuming that the acquisition had been completed as of the beginning of the respective periods. The Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended April 28, 1996, the Company's unaudited financial statements for the twenty-six weeks ended October 27, 1996, and the accompanying historical financial statements and notes of Lykes Meat Group for the year ended September 30, 1996. (2) Consolidated Balance Sheet Pro Forma Adjustments The Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet gives effect to the adjustments described below. (a) To adjust assets acquired and liabilities assumed in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. (b) To adjust the carrying value of property, plant and equipment to an independently appraised fair market value. (16) (c) To appropriately reduce the value of noncurrent assets to reflect the net purchase price in accordance with the purchase method of accounting. (d) To record deferred tax assets at fair value in accordance with APB 16. (e) To eliminate carved out items on the Combined Balance Sheets which were not assets acquired or liabilities assumed in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. These items are primarily certain employee benefit accruals that will remain on LBI's books. (f) To adjust the carrying value of tradenames and trademarks to estimated fair value. (g) To record the borrowing under the Company's revolving credit facility to pay the $28.3 million cash portion of the purchase price and the payment of $3.7 million of liabilities funded at closing. (h) To reflect, at fair value, certain other liabilities consistent with the Company's accounting policies. (i) To eliminate the equity of Lykes Meat Group. (3) Consolidated Statements of Operations Pro Forma Adjustments The Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations give effect to the adjustments described below. (j) To eliminate estimated intercompany sales. (k) To adjust for changes in amortization expense for the related periods associated with the change in value of trademarks and tradenames as a result of applying the purchase method of accounting. (l) To adjust for the estimated difference between the allocation of expenses for services provided by LBI and the expected cost that would have been incurred had Lykes Meat Group and the Company provided the same services. (m) To adjust for changes in depreciation expense for the related periods associated with the change in values for property, plant and equipment as a result of applying the purchase method of accounting. (n) To record the interest cost related to the $28.3 million cash portion of the purchase price and the payment of $3.7 million of liabilities funded at closing, borrowed under the Company's revolving credit facility. The weighted average interest rate is 6.6% and 6.9% for the twenty-six weeks ended October 27, 1996 and the year ended April 28, 1996, respectively, reflecting the Company's actual borrowing rates during those periods. (o) To eliminate the impairment loss which would have been reflected in the beginning balance sheet in accordance with the purchase method of accounting. (p) To record the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments at the marginal tax rate of 38.9%. (q) To reflect the marginal tax rate of 38.9% on Lykes Meat Group's historical loss which would have been realized as part of the consolidated group.
