SARA LEE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. During the first quarter of fiscal 1995 the Corporation adopted Statement
of Position 93-7 "Reporting on Advertising Costs" (SOP 93-7) as issued by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The statement
primarily requires that the cost of advertising be expensed no later than
the first time the advertising takes place. The Corporation's previous
method of accounting for advertising was consistent with SOP 93-7 and its
adoption had no material impact on the results of operations.

SARA LEE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
and Financial Condition
The following is a discussion of the results of operations for the second
quarter and first half of fiscal 1995 compared to the comparable periods of
fiscal 1994 and a discussion of the changes in financial condition during the
first half of fiscal 1995.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of Second Quarter 1995 to Second Quarter 1994
Current quarter sales of $4.65 billion were $638 million or 15.9% above the
$4.01 billion reported in the second quarter of last year. Packaged Foods
sales increased 19.7% to $2.32 billion while Packaged Consumer Products sales
increased 12.4% to $2.33 billion.
Businesses acquired net of businesses sold subsequent to the start of the
second quarter of last year increased sales by approximately 5.7 percentage
points. The weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies had
the effect of increasing sales in 1995 by approximately 3.0 percentage points.
Thus, on a comparable basis, sales increased approximately 7.2%. After
adjusting for business acquisitions and dispositions as well as foreign
currency fluctuations, comparable Packaged Foods sales increased 5.6% while
comparable Packaged Consumer Products sales increased 8.7% as compared to the
second quarter of last year.
Cost of sales increased by $407 million or 16.4% while the gross profit margin
was 37.9% in the current quarter compared to 38.2% in the second quarter of
last year. Packaged Foods gross profit margins declined and the mix of sales
was more heavily weighted toward Packaged Foods which have lower gross profit
margins than Packaged Consumer Products.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.33 billion were $189 million
or 16.5% higher than the second quarter of last year. The increase was
primarily due to acquisitions, the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to
foreign currencies and increases in advertising and promotion expense. Net
interest expense increased from $33 million last year to $46 million in the
current year primarily as a result of higher interest rates and increased long
term debt levels.
The effective tax rate increased from 34.3% to 35.0% of income before income
taxes. This increase was largely due to the impact of higher foreign taxes.
Net income increased 6.9% to $252 million. Net income per share increased 6.3%
to $.51 per share from the $.48 per share reported last year. The lower
percentage increase in earnings per share compared to net income is primarily
attributable to higher preferred dividends.
Page 9
<PAGE> 10
Comparison of First Half of 1995 to First Half of 1994
Net sales for the first half of 1995 were $8.94 billion or 14.5% higher than
the $7.81 billion reported last year. Packaged Foods sales increased 16.0% to
$4.37 billion and Packaged Consumer Products sales increased 13.2% to $4.57
billion. Adjusting sales for businesses sold and acquired subsequent to the
start of fiscal 1994 and foreign currency fluctuations, sales increased by
approximately 7.5%. After adjusting for business acquisitions and dispositions
as well as foreign currency fluctuations, comparable Packaged Foods sales
increased 5.4% while comparable Packaged Consumer Products sales increased 9.5%
as compared to the first half of last year. Cost of sales increased by $695
million or 14.3% while the gross profit margin percentage was 37.8% in the
first half of 1995 and 37.7% in the comparable period last year. The increase
in the gross profit margin is attributable to Packaged Foods.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $2.65 billion were $370 million
or 16.2% higher than the first six months of last year. The increase was
primarily due to acquisitions, the weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to
foreign currencies and increases in advertising and promotion expense in all of
the Corporation's lines of business. Net interest expense was $91 million
compared to $65 million in the prior year. The $26 million increase resulted
primarily from the factors noted in the second quarter results of operations.
The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109
(SFAS 109) "Accounting for Income Taxes" at the start of fiscal 1994. The
cumulative effect of initially applying this statement resulted in a charge of
$35 million or $.07 per share in the first quarter of 1994. The effect of this
new standard on income tax expense, exclusive of the cumulative effect
adjustment, for the six months ended January 1, 1994 was not material.
The effective tax rate, excluding the cumulative impact of adopting SFAS 109,
was 35% in the first six months of 1995 and 1994.
Excluding the cumulative impact of the accounting change, net income increased
6.7% to $417 million while net income per share increased 6.3% to $.84 from
$.79 last year. The lower percentage increase in earnings per share compared
to net income is attributable to higher preferred dividends. Including the
cumulative impact of the accounting change, net income increased 17.2% and net
income per share increased 16.7%.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
During the first six months of fiscal 1995, cash and equivalents increased by
$123 million while borrowings increased by $172 million.
RESTRUCTURING
On June 6, 1994, the Corporation announced a restructuring of its worldwide
operations which will result in the closure of 94 manufacturing and
distribution facilities and the severance of 9,900 employees. Through December
31, 1994, 31 facilities have been closed and 5,181
Page 10
<PAGE> 11
employees severed. Severance benefits are being paid over time as opposed to a
lump sum distribution. A reconciliation of the restructuring reserves through
December 31, 1994 is presented on page 12 of this document.
Restructuring actions are expected to be substantially completed by 1996, and
the Corporation expects to fund the costs of the plan from internal sources and
available borrowing capacity.
The Corporation expects the restructuring plan to begin lowering operating
costs in fiscal 1995 and to generate increasing savings in subsequent years,
growing to an annual savings of approximately $250 million in fiscal 1998.
Through the first half of fiscal 1995, savings from the restructuring have
totaled $30 million; however, a significant portion of this benefit has been
used for business building initiatives and profit improvements.
