Business Segment Information, (Continued)
The Company sells the products in each of its segments primarily to
grocery wholesalers and distributors, grocery stores and supermarkets,
convenience stores, drug and mass merchants and warehouse clubs. The

The Company allocates certain charges, including depreciation,
amortization, agent and broker commissions, storage, packing and shipping
charges, and administrative costs for salaries, insurance and employee
benefits, to its Branded Products segment, and to its Private Label and

8. GUARANTOR FINANCIAL DATA
The Company's Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by each of the Company's subsidiary guarantors on a joint and
several basis. The Company has not presented separate financial statements
and other disclosures concerning each of the subsidiary guarantors because
management has determined that such information is not material to the
holders of the Senior Subordinated Notes. The financial information for
2000 reflects the corporate re-organization, resulting from the Company's
tax restructuring, effective January 1, 2000. Certain intercompany sales
transactions between the parent and guarantor subsidiaries have been
eliminated. Presented below is consolidating financial information

9. IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101 "Revenue Recognition", which provides
guidelines in applying generally accepted accounting principles to selected
revenue recognition issues. The SAB is effective in the fourth fiscal
quarter of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999, or as of October
1, 2000 in the Company's case. The Company does not expect this statement
to have a material impact on its financial statements.
In May 2000 and July 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") issued
guidance on how to classify certain revenues and costs in a company's
financial statements. EITF No. 00-10 "Accounting for Shipping and Handling
Revenues and Costs" requires that companies classify all amounts billed to
customers related to shipping and handling cost as revenue. This statement
will be effective in the fourth quarter of 2000 and is not expected to have
any effect on the financial statements. EITF No. 00-14 "Accounting for
Coupons, Rebates and Discounts" requires that manufacturing companies
classify these costs as a reduction in net sales rather than as a marketing
expense. This statement will also be effective in the fourth quarter of
2000 and is not expected to have a material effect on the financial
statements. It will result in a reduction of marketing expense and net
sales but will be neutral to overall net income.
In June 1998, SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities", was issued to establish standards for accounting for
derivatives and hedging activities and supersedes and amends a number of
existing standards. This statement requires all derivatives to be
recognized in the statement of financial position as either assets or
liabilities and measured at fair value. In addition, all hedging
relationships must be designated, reassessed and documented pursuant to the
provisions of SFAS 133. SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, "Deferral of the
effective date of SFAS 133", is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this
statement will have on its financial statements.

11. RESTRUCTURING
In September 1998, in conjunction with management's plan to reduce costs
and improve operational efficiencies, the Company recorded a restructuring
charge of $118.1 million ($75.3 million after tax). The principal actions
in the restructuring plan involved the closure of the Vacaville,
California and Clearfield, Utah production facilities and the related
impact of the transfer of production to other facilities, mainly Milton,
Pennsylvania, and the write-down of goodwill associated with the Campfire
crisp rice snack bar brand and the Polaner fruit spreads brand. The
Polaner business was subsequently sold (Note 6).
At June 30, 2000, $2.5 million of restructuring charges remained in other
accrued liabilities. This amount is comprised of multi-employer pension
plan settlements and certain other employee benefit related costs.
Payments totalling $8.6 million have been made to date, including $0.5
million and $0.7 million for the three months and six months ended June
30, 2000, respectively.
12. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company currently does not use derivative financial instruments for
trading or speculative purposes, nor is the Company a party to leveraged
derivatives. In accordance with the Senior Bank Facilities, the Company is
required to enter into interest rate protection agreements to the extent
necessary to provide that, when combined with the Company's Senior
Subordinated Notes, at least 50% of the Company's aggregate indebtedness,
excluding the revolving credit facility, is subject to either fixed
interest rates or interest rate protection. At June 30, 2000, more than
50% of the Company's aggregate indebtedness, excluding the revolving
credit facility, is subject to such protection.
Under these agreements the Company agrees to exchange, at specified
intervals, the difference between fixed and floating interest amounts
based on agreed upon notional principal amounts. The notional amounts of
interest rate agreements are used to measure interest to be paid or
received and do not represent the amount of exposure to credit loss. In
accordance with the interest rate agreements, the measurement of 3 month
LIBOR and 6 month LIBOR, respectively, occurs on the first day of each
calculation period. For interest rate instruments that effectively hedge
interest rate exposures, the net cash amounts paid or received on the
agreements are accrued as incurred and recognized as an adjustment to
interest expense.
The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by
the other parties to the interest rate swap agreements. All counterparties
are at least A rated by Moody's and Standard & Poor's. Accordingly, the
Company does not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties.

13. OTHER EVENTS
On June 23, 2000, ConAgra signed a definitive agreement to acquire
International Home Foods, in a transaction valued at approximately $2.9
billion, including the assumption of $1.3 billion in debt. International
Home Foods shareholders will receive $22 per share, half of which will be
paid in cash and half of which will be paid in ConAgra stock. The stock
portion of the consideration will be determined by dividing $11 by an
average of ConAgra stock price for a fixed period prior to the closing,
but will be no more than .61111 shares nor less than .50 shares for each
International Home Foods share. The sale, which is subject to approval by
International Home Foods shareholders, regulatory approvals, and other
customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the third quarter of
calendar 2000. A special meeting of shareholders is scheduled for August
22, 2000 to vote on the proposed merger.
A Registration Statement on Form S-4 has been filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission in connection with the proposed merger. It
contains a proxy statement/ prospectus with information about ConAgra,
International Home Foods, the sale, and about persons soliciting proxies
in the sale, including officers and directors of International Home Foods,
and their interest in the sale. C.Dean Metropoulos, International Home
Foods chairman and chief executive officer and certain investment
partnerships controlled by Hicks, Muse, Tate & Furst Incorporated, holders
of an aggregate of approximately 43% of the International Home Foods
shares, have entered into agreements to vote for the merger.
