                         Notes to Financial Statements
                                  (unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation. The unaudited interim financial statements included
     herein have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and
     regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain notes and
     other information normally included in financial statements prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
     condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in
     this quarterly report on Form 10-Q in accordance with such rules and
     regulations. In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying
     financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal
     recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial position of
     the Company as of June 30, 1997, and the results of its operations and cash
     flows for the periods indicated. The results of operations for the three
     and six months ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
     results to be expected for the full year.

     These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
     financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and Peapod LP for the
     period from December 5, 1996 through December 31, 1996 and the year ended
     December 31, 1996, respectively, which are included in the Company's
     Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-24341) filed with the
     Securities and Exchange Commission.

2.   Conversion. Peapod, Inc. ("Company") is the successor to a business
     originally founded in 1989 as a Delaware corporation and operated since
     1992 through an Illinois limited partnership ("Peapod LP"). In December
     1996, the Company was incorporated in Delaware. In a conversion (the
     "Conversion") that was effected on May 31, 1997 (i) all of the equity
     interests in Peapod LP were transferred to the Company in exchange for
     12,656,417 shares of Common Stock, (ii) Peapod LP was dissolved, (iii) all
     of the assets and liabilities of Peapod LP were transferred to the Company
     and (iv) outstanding options and warrants for equity interests in Peapod LP
     were converted into options and warrants for shares of Common Stock. The
     transfer of the assets and liabilities of Peapod LP to the Company have
     been recorded by the Company at the historical carrying values of Peapod
     LP. On June 16, 1997 ("Offering Date"), the Company closed an initial
     public offering of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock at $16.00 per share
     generating net proceeds of $58.4 million.

     The balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 presents the historical results
     of Peapod LP.

3.   Earnings Per Share. The pro forma net loss per share is computed based on
     the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period,
     assuming the Conversion occurred at January 1, 1996.

     Pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin
     No. 83, common stock, stock warrants and stock options issued during the
     twelve months immediately preceding the Offering Date (using the treasury
     stock method and an initial public offering price per share of $16.00) have
     been included in the calculation of Common Stock as if they were
     outstanding for the entire period presented. Other common equivalent shares
     from stock options and warrants are excluded from the computation because
     their effect is antidilutive.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996
- ----------------------------------------------------------------


     Grocery sales, net of returns.  Grocery sales, net of returns, which are
the actual costs of groceries purchased by members, increased by 102.5% from
$5,025,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $10,177,000 in the quarter
ended June 30, 1997.  This increase is principally due to a 104.8% increase in
the number of orders offset slightly by a decline in average order size.
Average order size tends to be smaller in newer markets.  The total number of
orders increased from 45,500 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to 93,200 in the
quarter ended June 30, 1997. Total membership at June 30, 1996 and 1997 was
17,700 and 51,500, respectively, an increase of 191.0%. Increases in the
Company's membership base resulted largely from the introduction of the Peapod
service in six new markets since June 30, 1996 (Columbus, Boston, Houston,
Atlanta, Dallas and Austin), as well as increased penetration in its two then
existing markets (Chicago and San Francisco/San Jose).

     Interactive marketing services.  Revenues from interactive marketing
services include fees from consumer goods companies for interactive advertising,
promotion and research services.  Fees from such services increased by 172.9%
from $207,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $565,000 in the quarter
ended June 30, 1997.  The increase is primarily due to an increasing number of
interactive marketing services clients during the period.

     Member and retailer services.  Revenues from member and retailer services
include subscription, service and other fees paid by members and retail partners
related to Peapod's online shopping and delivery operations. Fees from such
services increased 228.5% from $1,190,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to
$3,909,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997. This increase is primarily
attributable to (i) fees paid by new retailers and additional fees paid by
existing retailers, (ii) higher grocery volumes and order quantities and (iii)
the increasing size of the Company's membership base.

     Groceries sold, net of returns.  The Company purchases groceries for its
account on behalf of its members.  The actual cost of groceries are subsequently
charged to the members.  Groceries sold, net of returns increased from
$5,025,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $10,177,000 in the quarter
ended June 30, 1997 commensurate with the increase in grocery sales, net of
returns.
<PAGE>
 
     Grocery operations. Grocery operations expenses include (i) the direct
costs relating to the shopping, packing and delivery of member orders, (ii)
salaries and overhead expenses of each fulfillment center, (iii) salaries and
overhead expenses for each metropolitan market and (iv) salaries and overhead
expenses for certain field support functions such as recruiting, training,
database merchandising and customer support. Grocery operations expenses
increased 160.5% from $1,660,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to
$4,324,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997. The increase is primarily
attributable to (i) salaries and overhead expenses of new fulfillment centers,
(ii) the direct costs of shopping, packing and delivering the increased volume
of member orders, (iii) salaries and overhead expenses for six new markets, (iv)
salaries and overhead expenses for customer support functions to support
increases in the Company's membership base and (v) new recruiting and training 
functions created to assist in the rapid opening of new markets and new
fulfillment centers.

     At June 30, 1997, Peapod fulfilled member orders from 59 fulfillment
centers across eight metropolitan markets compared to 15 fulfillment centers
across two metropolitan markets at June 30, 1996.  Two metropolitan markets and
17 fulfillment centers were added in the quarter ended June 30, 1997 compared to
no new metropolitan markets and one fulfillment center added in the quarter
ended June 30, 1996.

     General and administrative. General and administrative expenses, which
include corporate staff, accounting and human resource functions, increased
189.2% from $575,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $1,663,000 in the
quarter ended June 30, 1997. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in
compensation-related expenses to support the Company's growth, and from
occupancy expenses related to the centralization of field support functions and
the planned relocation of the Company's headquarters.

     Marketing and selling.  Marketing and selling expenses include the cost of
member acquisition and retention marketing, such as radio advertising and direct
mail, as well as certain costs relating to interactive marketing services.  The
Company expenses all such costs as incurred.  Marketing and selling expenses
increased by 9.2% from $923,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $1,008,000
in the quarter ended June 30, 1997.

     System development and maintenance.  System development and maintenance
expenses, which include new product development as well as the maintenance and
enhancement of existing systems, decreased 9.3% from $334,000 in the quarter
ended June 30, 1996 to $303,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997.  In 1996,
Peapod began work on version 5.0 of its end-user software.  In the quarter ended
June 30, 1997, the Company capitalized $204,000 of these development costs
compared to no capitalized development costs in the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

     Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
152.0% from $150,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 to $378,000 in the
quarter ended June 30, 1997. This increase is the result of changes in the
depreciable lives of certain capital assets already in service and equipment
added to support additional members, fulfillment centers and employees.

     Other income (expense).  Other income (expense) includes interest paid on
subordinated debentures, notes payable and capital leases and interest earned on
cash balances.  Interest expense  increased from $16,000 in the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 to $30,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997.  Interest income
increased from $149,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 
<PAGE>

1996 to $201,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997, resulting from the
investment of proceeds from the issuance of equity in both 1996 and 1997.


Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------

     Grocery sales, net of returns. Grocery sales, net of returns increased by
93.8% from $10,009,000 in the first half of 1996 to $19,394,000 in the first
half of 1997. This increase was principally due to a 94.0% increase in the
number of orders and a slight increase in average order size. The total number
of orders increased from 91,800 in the first half of 1996 to 178,100 in the
first half of 1997. Total membership at June 30, 1996 and 1997 was 17,700 and
51,500, respectively, an increase of 191.0%. Increases in the Company's
membership base resulted largely from the introduction of the Peapod service
in six new markets since June 30, 1996 (Columbus, Boston, Houston, Atlanta,
Dallas and Austin), as well as increased penetration in its two then existing
markets (Chicago and San Francisco/San Jose).

     Interactive marketing services.  Revenues from interactive marketing
services increased by 146.3% from $402,000 in the first half of 1996 to $990,000
in the first half of 1997. The increase is primarily due to an increasing number
of interactive marketing services clients during the period.

     Member and retailer services. Revenues from member and retailer services
increased 197.3% from $2,345,000 in the first half of 1996 to $6,971,000 in the
first half of 1997. This increase is primarily attributable to (i) fees paid by
new retailers and additional fees paid by existing retailers, (ii) higher
grocery volumes and order quantities and (iii) the increasing size of the
Company's membership base.

     Groceries sold, net of returns.  Groceries sold, net of returns increased
from $10,009,000 in the first half of 1996 to $19,394,000 in the first half of
1997 commensurate with the increase in grocery sales, net of returns.

     Grocery operations. Grocery operations expenses increased 156.0% from
$3,214,000 in the first half of 1996 to $8,227,000 in the first half of 1997.
The increase is primarily attributable to (i) salaries and overhead expenses of
new fulfillment centers, (ii) the direct costs of shopping, packing and
delivering member orders relating to the increased volume of orders, (iii)
salaries and overhead expenses for six new markets, (iv) salaries and overhead
expenses for customer support functions to support increases in the Company's
membership, and (v) new recruiting and training functions created to assist in
the rapid opening of new markets and new fulfillment centers.

     At June 30, 1997, Peapod fulfilled member orders from 59 fulfillment
centers across eight metropolitan markets compared to 15 fulfillment centers
across two metropolitan markets at June 30, 1996.  Four metropolitan markets and
31 fulfillment centers were added in the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared
to no new metropolitan markets and one fulfillment center added in the first
half of  1996.

     General and administrative.  General and administrative expenses increased
134.2% from $1,063,000 in the first half of 1996 to $2,490,000 in the first half
of 1997.   The increase resulted primarily from an increase in compensation-
related expenses to support the Company's growth, 
<PAGE>
 
and from occupancy expenses related to the centralization of field support
functions and the planned relocation of the Company's headquarters.

     Marketing and selling.  Marketing and selling expenses increased by 46.3%
from $1,534,000 in the first half of 1996 to $2,244,000 in the first half of
1997.  The increase is principally due to additional acquisition marketing
related to six new markets, and additional marketing staff to support the growth
in interactive marketing services and other marketing initiatives.

     System development and maintenance.  System development and maintenance
expenses decreased 1.5% from $689,000 in the first half of 1996 to $679,000 in
the first half of 1997.  In 1996, Peapod began work on version 5.0 of its end-
user software.  In the first half of 1997, the Company capitalized $355,000 of
these development costs compared to no capitalized development costs in the
first half of 1996.

     Depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization increased
120.1% from $268,000 in the first half of 1996 to $590,000 in the first half of
1997.  This increase is the result of changes in the depreciable lives of
certain capital assets already in service and equipment added to support 
additional members, fulfillment centers and employees.

     Other income (expense).  Interest expense  increased from $35,000 in the
first half of 1996 to $45,000 in the first half of 1997.  Interest income
increased from $167,000 in the first half of 1996 to $336,000 in the first half
of 1997 resulting from the investment of proceeds from the issuance of equity in
both 1996 and 1997.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash used in operating activities increased from $1,996,000 in the first
half of 1996 to $4,570,000 in the first half of 1997.  The increase in cash used
in operating activities is primarily attributable to increased net losses from
operations and increased receivables balances, partially offset by increases in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities.  As of June 30, 1997, the Company had
$65,787,000 in cash and cash equivalents.  In 1997, the Company sold equity
which generated aggregate net proceeds of $58,506,000, including $58,358,000 net
proceeds from the Company's initial public offering of Common Stock in June 1997
(the "IPO").  The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the IPO primarily
for expansion into new geographic markets and further penetration in existing
markets.  The Company uses its working capital to fund ongoing operations,
marketing programs and geographic expansion and to further develop its products
and services.

     The Company anticipates that amounts available under existing sources of
liquidity, cash flows from operations and the net proceeds from the IPO will be
sufficient to fund the Company's operations and capital requirements for the
foreseeable future.  However, no assurance can be given that changing business
circumstances will not require additional capital for reasons that are not
currently anticipated or that the necessary capital will then be available to
the Company on favorable terms or at all.

     The Company believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its
