NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED Dayton Hudson Corporation
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS and Subsidiaries
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statement disclosures contained in our 1996
Annual Shareholders' Report throughout pages 23-34. As explained on page 33 of
the Annual Report, the same accounting policies are followed in preparing
quarterly financial data as are followed in preparing annual data. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
quarterly operating results are reflected herein and are of a normal, recurring
nature.
Due to the seasonal nature of the retail industry, earnings for periods which
exclude the holiday season are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.
PER SHARE DATA
References to earnings per share relate to fully diluted earnings per share.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, EARNINGS PER SHARE, which is required to be adopted at our fiscal year end.
At that time we will calculate "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share and
restate prior periods. The differences from primary and fully diluted earnings
per share will be immaterial.
LONG-TERM DEBT
During the first quarter of 1997, we repurchased $126 million of long-term debt
for $144 million. We also committed to repurchase an additional $126 million of
long-term debt for $140 million, which settled in the second quarter. The total
debt repurchased had an average rate of approximately 9.5% and an average
remaining maturity of 17 years. An extraordinary charge, net of tax, of $21
million ($.09 per share) for early extinguishment of debt was recorded related
to the transactions. The replacement of this debt with lower interest rate
financing is expected to result in future interest expense savings.
In first quarter 1997, Retail Properties, Inc., a subsidiary of the Corporation,
was formed as a real estate investment trust (REIT) and issued $160 million of
preferred stock with an effective financing cost of 7.9%. The net proceeds from
the offering were used for general corporate purposes. The subsidiary preferred
stock is included in Long-Term Debt in our Consolidated Statement of Financial
Position at May 3, 1997. The preferred stock may be redeemed if, as a result of
a change in tax laws, rules or regulations, certain tax attributes of the REIT
transaction are recharacterized.
REAL ESTATE REPOSITIONING
In first quarter 1997, Mervyn's exited the Florida and Georgia markets and
closed one other under performing store; and DSD closed one store. Exit costs
incurred in the quarter approximated $12 million and were charged against the
reserve established in fourth quarter 1996.

<PAGE>
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year
presentation.
SUBSEQUENT EVENT
The Company has historically deducted for income tax purposes the inventory
shortage expense that it has accrued for book purposes, consistent with
industry practice. Effective with the Company's 1983 tax return, the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) challenged the practice of deducting accrued
shortage not supported with a year-end physical inventory. On June 11, 1997,
the United States Tax Court returned a judgment on this issue in favor of the
IRS. The Company continues to believe strongly in its position and will seek
a review by the full Tax Court and/or an appeal to the U.S. 8th Circuit Court
of Appeals. In the event that the Company's efforts are unsuccessful, the
Corporation will owe $50 to $60 million in federal and state taxes and net
accrued interest. A portion of this potential liability is related to timing
differences and the remainder, if any, will be charged against existing
Company reserves. Accordingly, even in the event that the Company's efforts
are unsuccessful, no impact on the Company's results of operations is
expected.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
FIRST QUARTER 1997
ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
Our first quarter 1997 net earnings were $105 million, or $.44 per share,
compared with $41 million, or $.16 per share, for the same period last year.
First quarter 1997 and 1996 net earnings include extraordinary charges, net of
tax, related to the early extinguishment of debt of $21 million ($.09 per share)
and $1 million, respectively. The improvement in first quarter net earnings is
primarily due to strong sales and profit performance at Target, margin
improvement at Mervyn's and a major operating expense reduction initiative at
DSD.
The following table reflects the significant components of the year-over-year
change in our earnings per share:
First Quarter
-------------------------------------------------------------
1996 Earnings Per Share $.16
Changes in earnings per share due to:
Revenues .15
Gross margin rate .11
Operating expense rate .12
Start-up expense (.01)
Extraordinary charge from redemption of debt (.09)
-------------------------------------------------------------
1997 Earnings Per Share $.44
-------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------
Strong growth at Target, our lowest margin and expense rate division, continues
to impact our business mix. As a result, the Corporation's overall revenue
growth and total operating expense rate were favorably affected, while the gross
margin rate was unfavorably affected. If the sales mix between divisions had
remained constant with first quarter 1996, the gross margin rate variance would
have been $.04 more favorable while the operating expense rate would have been
$.05 less favorable.
The overall gross margin rate favorability to prior year is the result of
improvement at Target and Mervyn's offset somewhat by higher markdowns at DSD
and Target's growing influence on the Corporation's overall margin structure.
The overall operating expense rate improvement reflects strong sales leveraging
and operating expense improvement at Target, as well as Target's increasing
influence on our expense rate structure, and DSD's significant operating expense
reduction initiative, partially offset by poor sales leveraging at Mervyn's and
DSD.

<PAGE>
REVENUES
- --------
Total revenues increased 9% in the first quarter, while comparable-store
revenues (revenues from stores open longer than a year) rose 4%.
Revenues by business segment were as follows:
First Quarter Percentage Change
--------------------- -------------------
MAY 3, May 4, All Comparable
(Millions of Dollars) 1997 1996 Stores Stores
------ ------ ------ ----------
Target $4,254 $3,723 14% 6%
Mervyn's 946 967 (2) -
DSD 689 690 - (3)
------ ------ ------ ----------
Total $5,889 $5,380 9% 4%
------ ------ ------ ----------
------ ------ ------ ----------
Target's increase over the prior year reflects the strength of base-business
sales, new-store expansion and increased sales and credit revenues associated
with the continued growth of the Target Guest Card. Mervyn's and DSD were also
positively impacted by a year-over-year increase in credit revenues. Mervyn's
total revenues decreased 2% reflecting the closure of 25 stores while
comparable-store revenues were equal to first quarter last year. DSD's total
revenues were flat to last year while comparable-store revenues declined as DSD
continues to refine the execution of its merchandise strategy.
OPERATING PROFIT
- ----------------
Our first quarter 1997 operating profit increased 68% over the prior year.
Operating profit is LIFO earnings from operations before corporate expense,
interest and income taxes.
Operating profit by business segment was as follows:
Three Months Ended
----------------------------------
MAY 3, May 4, Percentage
(Millions of Dollars) 1997 1996 Increase
------ ------ ----------
Target $ 251 $ 133 88%
Mervyn's 51 39 30
DSD 35 28 26
------ ------ ------
Total $ 337 $ 200 68%
------ ------ ------
------ ------ ------
Operating profit reflects a reduction of credit revenues and a reduction of bad
debt expense related to the sale of securitized accounts receivable and, as of
January 1, 1997, the net effect of SFAS No. 125. For the three months ended May
3, 1997, the net impact on operating profit by business segment was a reduction
of $1 million for Target, an increase of $1 million for Mervyn's and no impact
for DSD. In first quarter 1996, the net operating profit reductions were $1
million, $3 million and $2 million for Target, Mervyn's and DSD, respectively.
7
<PAGE>
TARGET'S first quarter operating profit increased 88% over the same period last
year, reflecting comparable-store revenue growth of 6%, as well as gross margin
rate and operating expense rate improvements. Its gross margin rate improved
primarily due to substantially better markup while the operating expense rate
was favorable due to strong sales leveraging and continued progress on Target's
multi-year effort to reduce operating expenses as a percentage of sales. Target
is on-track to realize $60 - $70 million in annualized cost savings identified
as part of its multi-year cost reduction program. For the balance of 1997,
Target's rate of operating profit growth is expected to slow somewhat as the
gross margin rate annualizes against the unusually strong improvements
experienced in the last four quarters. The operating expense rate should
continue to be favorable to last year, reflecting further progress on its
expense reduction program and favorable sales leveraging.
MERVYN'S operating profit increased 30% over first quarter last year. Its gross
margin rate increased over the prior year due to lower markdowns. Despite good
expense control, the operating expense rate was unfavorable to last year due to
poor sales leveraging and higher bad debt expense associated with higher credit
revenues. In 1997, despite lost revenue and profits from the previously
announced 25 to 35 store closings, Mervyn's is expected to continue to achieve
year-over-year operating profit growth through modest comparable-store revenue
growth and moderate gross margin rate favorability versus last year.
DSD'S first quarter operating profit increased 26% over the same period last
year as operating expense improvement was somewhat offset by gross margin
deterioration. The first quarter operating expense rate improved over last year
due to year-to-date savings associated with its $50 million operating expense
reduction initiative. The gross margin rate decreased reflecting higher
markdowns. DSD's 1997 operating profit is expected to be substantially better
than last year, reflecting modest gross margin rate favorability and continued
operating expense rate improvement.
Other Performance Factors
- -------------------------
The last-in, first-out (LIFO) provision, included in cost of retail sales, was
zero for both first quarter 1997 and 1996. The cumulative LIFO provision was
$86 million at May 3, 1997 and February 1, 1997, and $77 million at May 4, 1996.
Net interest expense for the quarter decreased $2 million over last year
reflecting savings from lower average debt balances. Annual interest expense
for 1997 is expected to be somewhat lower than 1996.
The estimated annual effective income tax rate for 1997 is 39.5%, unchanged from
the first quarter 1996 rate.
8
<PAGE>
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Our financial condition remains strong. The ratio of debt to total
capitalization attributable to our retail operations was 52% at the end of first
quarter 1997, compared with 56% a year ago and 50% at year end. Due to the
seasonality of our business, quarterly comparisons will fluctuate, but we expect
the ratio throughout 1997 to remain lower than last year.
At May 3, 1997, working capital was $1,502 million, up 3% compared with a year
ago. Accounts receivable declined 10% from year end, reflecting a typical
reduction from seasonally high levels. However, accounts receivable increased
12% from first quarter last year, primarily as a result of expansion of the
Target Guest Card. Compared with last year, merchandise inventories increased
approximately $155 million, or 5%, as a result of new store growth at Target,
partially offset by good inventory control at all divisions. The inventory
growth was more than fully funded by a $276 million, or 13%, increase in
accounts payable.
First quarter 1997 capital expenditures were $254 million, as expected; this
compares with $350 million for the same period a year ago. Approximately 83% of
these expenditures were made by Target, 5% by Mervyn's and 12% by DSD. Proceeds
of $102 million were received during the quarter from the disposal of property
and equipment, primarily from the sale of Mervyn's Florida and Georgia stores.
We continue to fund the growth in our business through a combination of debt,
securitization of accounts receivable and retained earnings. Our debt has
decreased $149 million compared with a year ago, while our shareholders'
investment has grown by $442 million.
STORE DATA
During the quarter, we opened 16 net new Target stores and 1 Mervyn's store. In
connection with the real estate repositioning initiated in fourth quarter 1996,
we closed 25 Mervyn's stores and one DSD store. At May 3, 1997, Target
operated 752 stores in 39 states, Mervyn's operated 276 stores in 15 states and
DSD operated 64 stores in nine states.
Retail square footage was as follows:

representatives, heirs or legatees to the extent vested in and
unexercised or perfected by the Participant at the date of his/her
death. Provided however, that if a Participant dies, the Stock Option
must be exercised within five years after the date of death or the
life of the Stock Option, whichever is less, but in no event less than
one year after the date of death.
No Stock Option shall be assignable or transferable by the individual
to whom it is granted, except that it may be transferable by will or
the laws of descent and distribution in accordance with the provisions
of the Plan. A Stock Option, if so transferable, may be exercised
after the death of the individual to whom it is granted only by such
individual's beneficiary designated to exercise the Stock Option or
otherwise by his/her applicable legal representatives, heirs or
legatees, and only within the specific time period set forth above.
In no event whether by the Participant directly or by his/her
beneficiary or other representative shall any Stock Option be
exercisable at any time after its expiration

<PAGE>
date as stated in the Stock Option agreement. When a Stock Option is
no longer exercisable it shall be deemed for all purposes and without
further act to have lapsed and terminated.
(c) EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. An individual entitled to exercise a Stock
Option may, subject to its terms and conditions and the terms and
conditions of the Plan, exercise it in whole at any time, or in part
from time to time, by delivery to the Company at its principal office
of written notice of exercise, specifying the number of whole shares
with respect to which the Stock Option is being exercised. Before
shares may be issued payment must be made in full, in legal United
States tender, in the amount of the purchase price of the shares to be
purchased at the time and any amounts for withholding, if any, as
provided in Section 7.7 hereof; provided, however, in lieu of paying
for the exercise price in cash as described above, the individual may
pay all or part of such exercise price by delivering owned and
unencumbered shares of the Company common stock having a Fair Market
Value on the date of exercise of the Stock Option equal to or less
than the exercise price of the Stock Options exercised, with cash, as
set forth above, for the remainder, if any, of the purchase price.
4.2 CHANGE IN CONTROL. In the event of a Change in Control, all
outstanding Stock Options granted under the Plan shall accelerate and will be
exercisable in full for a period of two hundred ten (210) days after the Change
in Control; provided that no Stock Option shall be exercisable by a Participant
after the termination date of the Stock Option.
ARTICLE V
SHARES OF STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
5.1 The total number of shares that may be available for issuance under
all Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed in the aggregate
300,000 shares (which reflects the three-for-one split on July 17, 1996 of the
100,000 shares initially reserved) of the Company's $.3333 par value common
stock. Stock Options which are forfeited for any reason or are not distributed
or are covered by Stock Options that lapse or are canceled before exercise,
shall (unless the Plan shall have been terminated) again be available in the
same relative amounts for other Stock Option grants under the Plan.
ARTICLE VI
ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
6.1 The Plan will be administered by a committee of two or more members of
the Board appointed from time to time by the Board. Each member of the
committee shall be a "non-employee director" as that term is defined under Rule
16b-3, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any
successor statute or regulation comprehending the same subject matter.
5
<PAGE>
6.2 The Plan Committee shall have and exercise all of the powers and
responsibilities granted expressly or by implication to it by the provisions of
the Plan. Subject to and as limited by such provisions, the Plan Committee may
from time to time enact, amend and rescind such rules, regulations and
procedures with respect to the administration of the Plan as it deems
appropriate or convenient. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this
Plan, the Plan Committee shall have no discretion with respect to the granting
of Stock Options to any Participant or to alter or amend any terms, conditions
and eligibility requirements of a Stock Option granted or to be granted to any
Participant under this Plan, it being understood that the granting and terms,
conditions and eligibility requirements of such Stock Options are governed
solely by the provisions set forth in this Plan pertaining thereto.
6.3 All questions arising under the Plan or any Stock Option agreement, or
any rule, regulation or procedure adopted by the Plan Committee shall be
determined by the Plan Committee, and its determination thereof shall be
conclusive and binding upon all parties.
6.4 Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Plan Committee
under the Plan shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of a quorum of
the members of the Plan Committee. A majority of all members of the Plan
Committee shall constitute a "quorum" for Plan Committee business. The Plan
Committee may act by written determination instead of by affirmative vote at a
meeting, provided that any written determination shall be signed by all members
of the Plan Committee, and any such written determination shall be as fully
effective as a majority vote of a quorum at a meeting.
ARTICLE VII
GENERAL PROVISIONS
7.1 AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION. The Board may at any time amend, suspend,
discontinue or terminate the Plan; provided, however, that no amendment by the
Board shall, without further approval of the shareholders of the Company:
(a) except as provided at Section 2.10 hereof increase the total number of
shares of Company common stock which may be made subject to the Plan;
or
(b) except as provided at Section 2.10 hereof change the purchase price of
Company common stock under the Plan; or
(c) change the Date of Grant; or
(d) change the calculation used to determine the number of Stock Options
granted on the Date of Grant.
6
<PAGE>
No action taken pursuant to this Section 7.1 of the Plan shall, without the
consent of a Participant, alter or impair any Stock Options which have been
previously granted to a Participant. Provisions relating to Stock Options may
not be amended more often than once every six months other than to comport with
changes in the Code or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended, or the rules thereunder
7.2 NON-ALIENATION OF RIGHTS AND BENEFITS. Except as expressly provided
herein, no right or benefit under the Plan shall be subject to anticipation,
alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge and any attempt to
anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be
void. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or
subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities or torts of the person entitled to
such right or benefit. If any Participant or beneficiary hereunder should
become bankrupt or attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge,
encumber or charge any right or benefit hereunder, then such right or benefit
shall, in the sole discretion of the Plan Committee, cease and in such event the
Company may hold or apply the same or any or no part thereof for the benefit of
the Participant or beneficiary, his/her spouse, children or other dependents or
any of them in any such manner and in such proportion as the Plan Committee in
its sole discretion may deem proper.
7.3 NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER. The granting of Stock Option(s) under the
Plan shall not entitle a Participant or any other person succeeding to his/her
rights, to any dividend, voting or other right as a shareholder of the Company
unless and until the issuance of a stock certificate to the Participant or such
other person pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and then only subsequent to
the date of issuance thereof.
7.4 GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the
Plan seemingly to the contrary, the obligation of the Company with respect to
Stock Options granted under the Plan shall at all times be subject to any and
all applicable laws, rules, and regulations and such approvals by any government
agencies as may be required or deemed by the Board or Plan Committee as
reasonably necessary or appropriate for the protection of the Company.
In connection with any sale, issuance or transfer hereunder, the
Participant acquiring the shares shall, if requested by the Company give
assurances satisfactory to counsel of the Company that the shares are being
acquired for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution thereof
and assurances in respect of such other matters as the Company may deem
desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements.
7.5 EFFECTIVE DATE. Subject to the approval of this Plan by the holders
of a majority of the voting power of the shares present and entitled to vote at
the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held May 24, 1995 and any
necessary approval being obtained from any department, board or agency of the
United States or states having jurisdiction, the Plan shall be effective as of
May 24, 1995.

<PAGE>
7.6 REORGANIZATION. In case the Company is merged or consolidated with
another corporation, or in case the property or stock of the Company is acquired
by another corporation, or in case of a separation, reorganization or
liquidation of the Company, the Plan Committee or a comparable committee of any
corporation assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder, shall either:
(a) make appropriate provision for the protection of any outstanding Stock
Options granted thereunder by the substitution on an equitable basis
of appropriate stock of the Company, or of the merged, consolidated or
otherwise reorganized corporation which will be issuable in respect to
the shares of the Company's $.3333 par value common stock.
(b) upon written notice to the Participant, provide that all outstanding
Stock Options shall accelerate and become exercisable in full but that
all outstanding Stock Options, whether or not exercisable prior to
such acceleration, must be exercised within not less than sixty days
of the date of such notice or they will be terminated. In any such
case the Plan Committee may, in its discretion, extend the sixty
day-exercise period.
7.7 WITHHOLDING TAXES, ETC. All distributions under the Plan shall be
subject to any required withholding taxes and other withholdings and, in case of
distributions in Company common stock, the Participant or other recipient may,
as a condition precedent to the delivery of the common stock, be required to pay
to the Company the excess, if any, of the amount of required withholding over
the withholdings, if any, from any distributions in cash under the Plan. No
distribution under the Plan shall be made in fractional shares of the Company's
common stock, but the proportional market value thereof shall be paid in cash.
7.8 GENERAL RESTRICTION. Each Stock Option shall be subject to the
requirement that, if at any time the Board shall determine, in its discretion,
that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject to such
Stock Option upon any securities exchange or under any state or Federal Law, or
the consent or approval of any government regulatory body, is necessary or
desirable as a condition of, or in connection with the granting of such Stock
Option or the issue or purchase of shares thereunder, such Stock Option may not
be exercised in whole or in part unless such listing, registration,
qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of
any conditions not acceptable to the Board.
7.9 USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds derived from the sale of the stock
pursuant to Stock Options granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds
of the Company.
7.10 HEADINGS. The headings of the Articles and their subparts in this
Plan are for convenience of reading only and are not meant to be of substantive
significance and shall not add to or detract from the meaning of such Article or
subpart to which it refers.
