Exhibit 99.5

           UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         The  following   unaudited  pro  forma  combined  condensed   financial
statements give effect to the merger of International  Home Foods, Inc. with and
into a wholly  owned  subsidiary  of ConAgra,  Inc. on August 24, 2000 using the
purchase method of accounting,  after giving effect to the pro forma adjustments
described in the accompanying  notes. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed
financial  statements  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the  audited  and
unaudited historical  consolidated financial statements and notes of ConAgra and
International Home Foods.

         The unaudited pro forma combined condensed  statements of earnings give
effect to the merger as if it had  occurred  at the  beginning  of the  earliest
period presented.  ConAgra's fiscal year ended on May 30, 1999 and International
Home Foods'  fiscal year ended on December 31,  1999.  The  unaudited  pro forma
combined  condensed  statements  of earnings for the year ended May 30, 1999 and
the   thirty-nine   weeks  ended   February  27,  2000  combine  the  historical
consolidated  statements  of earnings  of ConAgra  with the  recasted  unaudited
consolidated   statements  of  income  of  International   Home  Foods  for  the
twelve-month  period ended June 30, 1999 and the  nine-month  period ended March
31, 2000, respectively.  For purposes of presenting unaudited pro forma combined
condensed statements of earnings, International Home Foods' fiscal year has been
recasted  to June 30,  1999,  by  including  the  unaudited  reported  financial
statements for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 and the three  previous  quarters
ended March 31, 1999,  December 31, 1998 and September  30, 1998.  International
Home  Foods'  statements  of income for the  nine-months  ended  March 31,  2000
include unaudited  reported financial data for the quarter ended March 31, 2000,
December 31, 1999 and  September  30, 1999.  The  unaudited  pro forma  combined
condensed  balance  sheet  gives  effect to the merger as if it had  occurred on
February  27,  2000 and  combines  ConAgra's  consolidated  balance  sheet as of
February 27, 2000 with International Home Foods'  consolidated  balance sheet as
of  March  31,  2000.  The  unaudited   consolidated   financial  statements  of
International  Home  Foods for the  quarter  ended June 30,  2000,  set forth in
Exhibit 99.4 of ConAgra's Current Report dated August 24, 2000, are not included
in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements.

         The unaudited pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes
are based upon  preliminary  estimates and  assumptions  that the managements of
ConAgra  and  International  Home Foods  believe are  reasonable.  The pro forma
adjustments are based on the  information and assumptions  available at the time
of the merger. The purchase price allocation will be finalized subsequent to the
closing of the transaction and  finalization of asset and liability  valuations.
The unaudited pro forma combined  condensed  financial  statements are presented
for  illustrative  purposes  only and do not  purport  to be  indicative  of the
operating results or financial position that would have actually occurred if the
merger  had  been  in  effect  on the  dates  indicated,  nor is it  necessarily
indicative  of future  operating  results or  financial  position  of the merged
companies.  The unaudited pro forma combined condensed  financial  statements do
not give effect to any potential  cost savings or other  operating  efficiencies
that ConAgra expects to result from the transaction.

      Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Statements
                  (Amounts in Millions, Except Per Share Data)

         On June 22,  2000,  ConAgra  signed an  agreement to acquire all of the
issued and outstanding shares of common stock and stock options of International
Home  Foods  in a  transaction  to  be  accounted  for  as a  purchase  business
combination.  The assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed will be assigned a
portion of the purchase  price equal to their  respective  fair market values at
the date of acquisition  of August 24, 2000.  The unaudited pro forma  financial
statements are based on the following:

1.       The historical consolidated financial statements of ConAgra.

2.       The historical  consolidated financial statements of International Home
         Foods' recasted for the nine-month  period ended March 31, 2000 and the
         twelve-month period ended June 30, 1999.

3.       a.  The  consideration  paid  for International Home Foods common stock
             was  $22,  consisting  of  $11 in cash and a fraction of a share of
             ConAgra  common  stock  valued  at $11 per share.  The common stock
             portion of the merger consideration is calculated as follows:

             International Home Foods common stock outstanding
             at May 31, 2000                                              74.13

             Exchange ratio                                             0.54692
                                                                        -------
             ConAgra common stock to be issued in exchange
             for International Home Foods common stock                   40.543

             Average price of ConAgra common stock                      $20.113
                                                                        -------
             Total common stock consideration                            $815.4
                                                                         ======

             The  exchange  ratio  of  .54692 shares of ConAgra common stock for
             each share of International Home Foods common stock outstanding was
             determined  by  dividing  $11 by ConAgra's average closing price of
             $20.113  as  provided  for  in  the merger agreement.  The exchange
             ratio  was  determined  by  the  average closing price of ConAgra's
             common  stock  on  the  ten  trading  days ending on the fifth full
             trading day immediately preceding the merger.

         b.  Based  on common stock options outstanding on May 31, 2000, ConAgra
             would  assume  approximately  6.2  million common stock options and
             would  pay  approximately $55.2 million in cash in exchange for all
             of the International Home Foods outstanding stock options.

         c.  The  cash  portion  of  the  purchase  price, including transaction
             costs,  was  provided  by increased borrowings of ConAgra under its
             existing credit facilities. In addition, ConAgra intends to replace
             International Home Foods credit facilities and long-term debt  with
             borrowings  under  ConAgra's  credit facilities and other long-term
             debt.

                                                                       --------
          Goodwill                                                     $1,563.7
                                                                       ========

         ConAgra  expects  to  allocate  a  portion  of the  purchase  price  to
         buildings,  machinery and equipment and other identifiable  assets. The
         purchase price  allocation  will be completed  after the closing of the
         transaction  and  finalization  of asset and liability  valuations.  In
         connection with the acquisition, ConAgra may consolidate certain plants
         and will include the  associated  costs as part of the  purchase  price
         allocation.  ConAgra's  management  has  not  currently  completed  its
         assessment of such activities .

5.       The pro forma statement of earnings adjustments are as follows:

         a.   Provide  depreciation and amortization of the fair values assigned
              to all identifiable tangible and intangible assets.  The excess of
              the  purchase price over the net assets acquired has preliminarily
              been  allocated  to  nondeductible goodwill and is being amortized
              using the straight-line method over 40 years.

              ConAgra  expects  to  allocate  a portion of the purchase price to
              buildings,   machinery  and equipment and other intangible assets,
              including  brands.  Assuming  these  assets had a weighted average
              life  of 20 years, for each $100.0 million allocated to buildings,
              machinery  and  equipment  or  other  intangible  assets pro forma
              operating  expenses  would  increase by $2.5 million and pro forma
              net income would decrease by $.6 million.

         b.   Reclassification  of  International  Home  Foods'  trade promotion
              expenses  from selling, administrative and general expenses to net
              sales to conform to ConAgra's presentation.

         c.   Adjust  interest  expense  relating  to  (1) additional borrowings
              under  ConAgra's credit facilities of approximately $905.6 million
              for  the  cash  portion  of  the  purchase price and approximately
              $778.9  million  for  the  repayment  of  International Home Foods
              credit  facilities  at  an  assumed interest rate of 6.85% and (2)
              additional  long-term  borrowings  of $385 million at 8.5% for the
              repayment  of International Home Foods $385 million 10.375% Senior

               A  .125%   change  in the interest  rate on the new  indebtedness
