1. Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company as of April 1, 2000 and April 3, 1999 and the results of operations for
the three-month period ended April 1, 2000 and April 3, 1999 and cash flows for
the three months ended April 1, 2000 and April 3, 1999. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. Because of the seasonality of
the specialty retailing business, operating results of the Company on a
quarterly basis may not be indicative of operating results for the full year or
any other period. The consolidated condensed financial statements of the Company
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company
included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
2. Acquisition of Just For Feet
On March 7, 2000 the Company acquired certain assets of Just For Feet, Inc. and
its subsidiaries, which had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on
November 4, 1999. Just For Feet is the leading operator of large-format
superstores which specialize in brand-name athletic and outdoor footwear and
apparel. The assets purchased by the Company include 3 Just For Feet
superstores, 76 Just For Feet superstore leases, 23 specialty store leases, the
Just For Feet name, the Internet business and the corporate headquarters
building located in Birmingham, Alabama. The net cash consideration paid for the
assets was $64.2 million. Additional adjustments to the purchase price may
result from closing adjustments and physical inventory counts.
The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting
for business combinations. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements
include the results of operations of Just For Feet from the acquisition date.
The results of operations generated from the assets acquired have been added to
those of Footaction and reported as Footstar's athletic segment. The purchase
price was allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities assumed, tangible and
intangible. The acquired assets and liabilities assumed were predominantly
inventories, fixed assets and lease obligations. Based on preliminary purchase
price allocations, the excess of the fair market value of the net assets
acquired over the purchase price amounting to approximately $15.4 was deducted
from the book values of the non-current, non-monetary assets acquired.
Additional adjustments to the purchase price allocation may result from the
completion of an appraisal of the acquired assets, which is currently in
progress. These adjustments are not expected to be material.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
($ in millions, except per share data)
Unaudited Just For Feet pro forma net sales for the three month period ended
April 1, 2000 and April 3, 1999 assuming Just For Feet assets were acquired as
of January 3, 1999 would have amounted to $72.5 million and $123.9 million,
respectively. Therefore, Footstar pro forma consolidated net sales for the three
month period ended April 1, 2000 and April 3, 1999 would have been $494.9
million and $563.0 million, respectively.
Pro forma net income and earnings per share data have not been disclosed since
the Company is unable to avoid the use of forward-looking information and
assumptions in order to meaningfully present the effect of the acquisition on
the Company's operations. The Just For Feet historical results for the three
months ended April 1, 2000 include the effects of both transactions and
estimates which are related either directly or indirectly, to its liquidation
proceedings under Chapter 7. As such, the Company cannot accurately determine
the operating results which would have resulted had the liquidation process not
been initiated and the assets been acquired by the Company effective January 1,
2000.
For the same reasons as expressed above, the pro forma sales are not necessarily
indicative of the results of the Company had the Just For Feet, Inc. assets been
acquired at the beginning of the periods presented, nor necessarily indicative
of the sales in future periods.
3. Accounting Pronouncements
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information ("SFAS No. 131") requires that public
business enterprises report selected information about operating segments in
interim financial reports issued to shareholders. Under SFAS No. 131 the newly
acquired Just For Feet stores and Footaction stores represent two operating
segments that have been aggregated for financial reporting purposes.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income ("SFAS No.130") requires that items defined as other comprehensive
income, such as foreign currency translation adjustments, be separately
classified in the financial statements and that the accumulated balance of other
comprehensive income be reported separately from retained earnings and
additional paid-in capital in the equity section of the balance sheet. The
components of comprehensive income for the three months ended April 1, 2000 and
April 3, 1999 are as follows:

6. Purchase of Treasury Stock
During January 2000, the Company completed its fourth share repurchase program.
On February 13, 2000 the Board of Directors authorized the Company's fifth stock
repurchase program enabling the Company to purchase from time to time in the
open market up to 10% of the shares of common stock outstanding or approximately
2.0 million shares.
During the first quarter ended April 1, 2000, the Company purchased 502,400
shares of its stock in the open market at an average price of $26.17 for an
aggregate purchase amount of $13.1 million. Since May 1997 when the first share
repurchase program was approved by the Company's Board of Directors, through
April 1, 2000, the Company had purchased a total of 11,012,700 shares at an
average price of $28.92 per share, for an aggregate purchase amount of $318.5
million. As of April 1, 2000 the Company has approximately 1,697,300 shares
remaining to be bought back under the fifth share repurchase program. Treasury
shares may be issued in connection with employee stock benefit plans and for
other corporate purposes.

Independent Auditors' Review Report
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Footstar, Inc.
We have reviewed the consolidated condensed balance sheet of Footstar, Inc. and
subsidiary companies as of April 1, 2000 and the related consolidated condensed
statements of operations for the three month periods ended April 1, 2000 and
April 3, 1999, respectively and cash flows for the three-month periods ended
April 1, 2000 and April 3, 1999, respectively. These consolidated condensed
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the consolidated condensed financial statements referred to above for
them to be in conformity with general accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Footstar, Inc. and subsidiary
companies as of January 1, 2000 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for
the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 8,
2000, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial
statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
consolidated condensed balance sheet as of January 1, 2000, is fairly stated, in
all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which
it has been derived

Same store sales % change (8.7%) (4.7%)

Consolidated net sales for the first quarter ended April 1, 2000, were $439.7
million, an increase of 0.1% from net sales of $439.1 million for the same
period of 1999. Same store sales for the three month period decreased 3.5%
compared to the first quarter of 1999. All businesses were effected by the shift
in the calendar with Easter falling in the second quarter this year as opposed
to last year, when Easter fell in the first quarter. Meldisco posted a 0.2%
increase in sales over last year primarily attributable to strong sales of Men's
product. Total sales in the athletic segment were approximately flat with last
year's sales, as the additional sales generated by the acquired Just For Feet
assets were offset by decreased sales at Footaction in the quarter. Poor Nike
Air and Team Jordan comparisons and weak apparel sales resulted in the 8.7%
decrease in same store sales in the athletic segment.

Cost of sales 71.1% 71.7%
Store operating, selling, general

Depreciation and amortization 2.2% 2.1%
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the first quarter of 2000, as a percent of net sales,
decreased 60 basis points from the corresponding prior-year period. Meldisco
experienced an increase in gross margin in the first quarter of 2000 versus the
same 1999 period due to an improved sales mix favoring regular priced product
resulting in less markdowns. For the athletic segment, cost of sales, as a
percent of sales, increased primarily due to the under absorption of occupancy
expenses, as a result of negative comparable store sales in the Footaction
stores.
Store Operating, Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Store operating, selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), as a
percent of sales, for the first quarter ended April 1, 2000 increased 160 basis
points as compared to the same prior year period. The increase was primarily due
to expenses incurred at the athletic segment as a result of the addition of the
Just For Feet stores. The SG&A rate was also negatively affected by the lower
same store sales for the period, which had an adverse impact on the leverage of
fixed costs. Meldisco's SG&A, as a percent of sales, decreased during the
period.

note: (1) percentages represent percent of net sales of the respective entities.
(2) 1999 operating profit is presented before the reversal of
restructuring charges.
Operating profit for the first quarter ended April 1, 2000, decreased 170 basis
points over the same period of 1999. Meldisco's operating profit as a percent of
net sales increased by 160 basis points due to improved gross margins. The
athletic segment's operating profit decreased due to increased markdowns,
underabsorption of fixed costs due to negative comparable store sales and the
low sales productivity of the acquired Just For Feet stores due to lack of
inventory.
Liquidity and Financial Condition
Footstar's inventories were higher than a year ago, due principally to the
assets acquired as part of the Just For Feet transaction. Meldisco's quarter-end
inventories increased by 14.4% versus the year ago period to support the Easter
selling season as a result of the Easter holiday shift to the second quarter.
Inventories at Footaction decreased on a per square foot basis by approximately
11% at April 1, 2000. The increase in inventories generated a corresponding
increase in accounts payable at quarter-end.
In addition to inventories, the majority of the Just For Feet acquired assets
represent fixed assets which have been classified as Property and equipment,
net.
As of April 1, 2000, the Company had $120 million in unsecured borrowings,
classified as notes payable. The Company has a $300 million unsecured revolving
credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility contains various
operating covenants which, among other things, impose certain limitations on the
Company's ability to incur liens, incur indebtedness, merge, consolidate or
declare and make dividend payments. Under the Credit Facility, the Company is
required to comply with financial covenants relating
14
<PAGE>
FOOTSTAR, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Unaudited)
to ratios of debt and fixed charge coverage. The Company is in compliance with
these covenants. During February 2000, the Company received and accepted a
commitment from Fleet National Bank for a 3-year, $350 million revolving credit
facility. The Company expects that the credit facility will become effective in
the second quarter of 2000 (see "Subsequent Event" in the "Notes to the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements") and at that time the current
Credit Facility will be terminated and funds from the new facility will be used
to repay outstanding borrowing balances under the existing Credit Facility.
The Company's businesses are seasonal in nature. Peak selling periods coincide
with Christmas, the Easter holiday and the back-to-school selling seasons.
Working capital requirements vary with seasonal business volume and inventory
buildups occurring prior to the peak periods. The Company expects that its
current cash, together with cash generated from operations and credit
facilities, will be sufficient to fund its expected operating expenses, working
capital needs, capital expenditures, and projected growth for the foreseeable
future. The Company currently maintains significant borrowing capacity to take
advantage of growth and investment opportunities.
The Company expects that it will retain all available funds for the operation
and expansion of its business and to fund future share repurchases, and does not
anticipate paying any cash dividends to shareholders in the foreseeable future.
Under its arrangement with Kmart, Meldisco will distribute annually to Kmart, a
portion of profits representing Kmart's minority interest in Meldisco
subsidiaries. In April 2000, after the end of the fiscal quarter, the Company
distributed $44.4 million representing Kmart's normal dividend for their
minority interest on net income for fiscal year 1999.
Capital expenditures for the three months ended April 1, 2000 were $2.7 million
and were in line with the full year capital expenditure plan of approximately
$48 million. These expenditures during the first quarter related primarily to
the Company's continuing investment in information systems and the opening,
relocating, or remodeling of Footaction stores.

Interest Rates
The Company's investment and debt portfolios are short-term, seasonal in nature.
The Company's investment portfolio consists of highly rated short-term
marketable securities with peak amounts coinciding with the year-end peak
selling season. The Company, from time to time, undertakes short-term borrowings
to finance working capital. The Company's peak borrowing periods coincide with
