                        IBP, inc. AND SUBSIDIARIES
           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


A.        GENERAL

     The consolidated condensed balance sheet of IBP, inc. and
     subsidiaries ("IBP") at December 25, 1993 has been taken
     from audited financial statements at that date and
     condensed.  All other consolidated condensed financial
     statements contained herein have been prepared by IBP and are
     unaudited.  The consolidated condensed financial statements
     should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
     statements and the notes thereto included in IBP's Annual
     Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 1993.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying audited and
     unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain
     all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
     adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial
     position of IBP, inc. and its subsidiaries at June 25, 1994
     and December 25, 1993, and the results of its operations and
     its cash flows for the periods presented herein.

     Certain reclassifications have been made to prior financial
     statements to conform to the current year presentation.

B.   OTHER

     IBP's interim operating results may be subject to substantial
     fluctuations which do not necessarily occur or recur on a
     seasonal basis.  Such fluctuations are normally caused by
     competitive and other conditions in the cattle and hog markets
     over which IBP has little or no control.  Therefore, the
     results of operations for the interim periods presented are
     not necessarily indicative of the results to be attained for
     the full fiscal year.


C.   INVENTORIES

     Inventories, valued at the lower of first-in, first-out cost
     or market, are comprised of the following:

                           June 25,        December 25,
                             1994              1993

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


D.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     IBP is involved in various disputes incident to the ordinary
     course of its business.  In the opinion of management, any
     liability for which provision has not been made relative to
     the various lawsuits, claims and administrative proceedings
     pending against IBP, including that described below, should
     not have a material adverse effect on its financial position.

     A complaint filed against IBP in April 1988 by the Department
     of Labor, Wage and Hour Division, in the United States
     District Court in Kansas seeks injunctive relief and back
     wages, plus interest, for certain hourly employees of the
     Company.  The case relates to compensation allegedly due for
     incidental activities of hourly employees before and after
     regular working hours.  In the liability phase of the case,
     the district judge ruled that IBP is required to pay back
     wages for a portion of the incidental activities.  An appeal
     by the Company is in progress.  The Company's management
     believes it has made adequate provision for any liability, the
     amount of which, if any, will be determined at a later time.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Increased supplies of market-ready livestock and improved
production efficiencies helped IBP to a strong earnings performance
in the second quarter 1994.  Gross profit, measured as a percentage
of net sales, improved to 3.1% in the second quarter 1994 compared
to 2.2% in the second quarter 1993.  For the six months ended June 
25, 1994, gross profit measured 2.7% versus 2.0% in the first half 
of 1993.

     IBP's required adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," in the first
quarter 1993 added $12.6 million or $.26 per share to prior year
net earnings.  This earnings increase was primarily attributable to
the adjustment of "pushdown accounting" fixed asset bases resulting
from IBP's acquisition in 1981.  At the same time, year-to-date
1994 and 1993 net earnings were reduced by recurring pushdown
accounting adjustments, consisting primarily of goodwill
amortization and depreciation of the higher values assigned to
property, plant and equipment, totaling $4.9 million or $.10 per
share in 1994 and $5.3 million or $.11 per share in the 26 weeks
ended June 1993.  These adjustments had no impact on cash flow.

     IBP continued to move into new value-added areas during the
second quarter.  The company completed its acquisition of the meats
business of International Multifoods Corporation.  The purchase
includes a plant in New Mexico which produces prepared meats for
sale to the food service industry.

     In addition, operations began at IBP's ham plant in Council
Bluffs, Iowa, in June 1994.  This new facility, located adjacent to
IBP's pork plant, processes, cooks and packages retail and deli
hams.  These products are then marketed and distributed by
Doskocil, Inc.  

     SALES

     Net sales in the second quarter 1994 were virtually unchanged
from the second quarter 1993 as a decrease in the average price of
products sold slightly overrode an increase in pounds of products
sold.  Through six months, the 1.2% increase in net sales resulted
primarily from an increase in pounds of products sold.

     Net export sales in the second quarter 1994 decreased 3.3%
from the second quarter 1993 despite a 4.0% increase in pounds of
export products sold.  Year-to-date 1994 net export sales were 4.0%
ahead of comparable 1993 net export sales, brought about by a 6.1%
increase in pounds of export products sold.  Year-to-date 1994 net
export sales through June accounted for 12.0% of total net sales
versus 12.1% through the same 1993 period.



                              -7-



     COST OF PRODUCTS SOLD

     The cost of products sold in the quarter and six months ended
June 1994 decreased 1.0% and .5% from costs incurred in the
respective 1993 periods.  For both comparison periods, a reduction
in the overall average cost of livestock purchased more than offset
the effect of an increase in pounds of products sold and increases
in volume-related plant costs.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

     The primary components of increased selling, general and
administrative expense in the 1994 second quarter and year-to-date
period ended June versus 1993 were higher accruals for incentive
compensation based upon earnings and pounds of products sold,
outside legal costs and bad debt expense.

     INTEREST EXPENSE

     The reductions in net interest expense in the quarterly and
six-month periods ended June 1994 compared to the same 1993 periods
were primarily attributable to reduced average borrowings
outstanding.  Outstanding borrowings averaged $97 million less in
the first half of 1994 compared to 1993 due to sustained earnings
strength and other positive operating cash flows.

     INCOME TAXES

     The higher quarterly and year-to-date 1994 income tax
provisions through June versus 1993 resulted predominantly from the
increases in pre-tax earnings.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Total outstanding borrowings averaged $488 million in the
first six months of 1994 compared to $585 million in the comparable
1993 period.  Short-term borrowings outstanding at June 25, 1994,
excluding $75 million classified as long-term debt, totaled $25
million with available unused credit capacity of $265 million.  

     Year-to-date capital expenditures through June 1994 totaled
$37.8 million compared to $20.6 million in the first half of 1993. 
Spending for the ham processing plants at Council Bluffs, Iowa, and
Madison, Nebraska, and plant expansion projects at other locations
contributed to the increase.
