                         INTERNATIONAL DAIRY QUEEN, INC.
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company without audit, but include all adjustments which are of a normal
recurring nature and which the Company believes are necessary for a fair
presentation of its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 30, 1997 and
the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and
six-month periods ended May 30, 1997 and May 31, 1996 and the condensed
consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended May 30,
1997 and May 31, 1996. The condensed financial statements do not include all
disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles since
certain footnote information has been omitted. For further information, refer to
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report and Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 1996.

On March 31, 1997, the Company sold its 60% interest in Firstaff, Inc.
Approximately 9(cent), after tax, of earnings per common share for the second
quarter and six-month period ended May 31, 1997, resulted from this transaction.

Earnings per common share amounts are based on the weighted average number of
common and common equivalent shares outstanding during each period. In February
1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 128,
EARNINGS PER SHARE. Effective for its quarter ending February 28, 1998, the
Company will be required to change the method currently used to compute earnings
per share and to restate all prior periods. Under the new requirements, the
dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded from the calculation of
primary earnings per share. The effect of Statement 128 on the calculation of
primary and fully diluted earnings per share for the quarters and six-month
periods ended May 30, 1997 and May 31, 1996, is not expected to be significant.

The Company's business is seasonal in nature, and the results of operations for
the period ended May 30, 1997, may not be indicative of the results for the full
year.


                         INTERNATIONAL DAIRY QUEEN, INC.
           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General:

The Company's revenues are derived primarily from service and franchise fees
received from franchisees and the sale of perishable and nonperishable supplies
and equipment for use by franchised stores. Although the Company does not
allocate interest or selling, general and administrative expenses by products
sold or services rendered, it believes that a major portion of its operating
income results from franchise service fees.

The following table sets forth certain information as to the number of stores in
the DAIRY QUEEN(R), ORANGE JULIUS(R), KARMELKORN(R), and GOLDEN SKILLET(R)
systems.

Results of Operations:

The improvement in the Company's net income for the second quarter and first six
months of 1997 compared to the second quarter and first six months of 1996,
reflects an increase in gross margin dollars on net sales, an increase in
service fees, an increase in other income, which includes the gain from the sale
of the Company's 60% interest in Firstaff, Inc., on March 31, 1997, and an
increase in net interest income. These increases were partially offset by a
decrease in net sales and an increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses.

The following table indicates as a percentage of revenue, line items from the
income statement, and the percentage increase/decrease of such items when
comparing the first six months of 1997 with the first six months of 1996.

*  Not meaningful since it includes the gain from the sale of the company's 60%

</TABLE>


The decrease of $419,003 in net sales during the first six months of 1997, when
compared to the first six months of 1996, resulted primarily from a decrease of
$1,919,911 in permanent and temporary placement and training fees due to the
sale by the company of its 60% interest in Firstaff, Inc., on March 31, 1997,
and to a decrease of $1,547,946 in unit sales of frozen, non-frozen food, paper,
plastics and manufactured novelties to authorized warehouses (who in turn sell
to franchisees). These decreases were partially offset by an increase of
$1,249,429 in sales of promotional items sold to DAIRY QUEEN stores, and an
increase of $2,048,688 in equipment sales to franchisees.

Sales by company-operated restaurants increased by $6,088,099 when comparing the
first six months of 1997 with the first six months of 1996 (December 1, 1995 to
May 31, 1996) primarily due to the absence of company-operated restaurants'
operations prior to February 7, 1996.

The increase in other income for the second quarter and six month periods ended
May 30, 1997, when compared to the similar periods of 1996, primarily reflects
the gain resulting from the Firstaff transaction.

The increase in net interest income of $721,708 in the first six months of 1997
is primarily the result of an increase in the funds available for investing in
interest-generating activities.

Minority interest represents the income from operations allocated to the
minority ownership in 21 DAIRY QUEEN/BRAZIER stores and Firstaff, Inc.

The increases in net income per share, when comparing the 1997 periods with the
1996 periods, were due to an increase in the Company's net income, the gain
resulting from the sale of the Company's interest in Firstaff, Inc.
(approximately 9(cent) of the increases for the six months and second quarter
periods respectively) and to a decrease in the average number of common and
common equivalent shares outstanding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Available liquid resources at May 30, 1997, include $40.8 million in cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities. The Company believes it has sufficient
capital to meet existing and presently anticipated needs.
