     Item 7 of the Current Report on Form 8-K of Kimberly-Clark Corporation, a
Delaware corporation ("Kimberly-Clark"), reporting events occurring on December
12 and 13, 1995 is amended and restated in its entirety as set forth below.
 
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
 
(a) Financial statements of businesses acquired:
 
     The financial statements of Scott Paper Company, a Pennsylvania corporation
("Scott"), required by this item have been previously reported by Scott and are
included or incorporated by reference in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus
(the "Proxy Statement/Prospectus") which constitutes a part of Kimberly-Clark's
Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 33-64063).
 
(b) Pro forma financial information:
 
     Except for the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information set forth
below, all pro forma financial information required by this item has been
previously reported by Kimberly-Clark and is included in the Proxy
Statement/Prospectus.
 
               UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
     The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information (the
"Unaudited Pro Forma Information") is presented to reflect the estimated impact
on the historical Consolidated Financial Statements of Kimberly-Clark at
September 30, 1995 and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and
1995 of the merger (the "Merger") of Rifle Merger Co., a Pennsylvania
corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kimberly-Clark ("Sub"), with and
into Scott, with Scott continuing as the surviving corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Kimberly-Clark, pursuant to and in accordance with
the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 16, 1995 among Kimberly-Clark,
Sub and Scott. The Merger is being accounted for as a pooling of interests.
 
     The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statements of Income for the nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 assume that the Merger had been
consummated on January 1, 1990 and accounted for as a pooling of interests. The
Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet at September 30, 1995 assumes that
the Merger had been consummated on September 30, 1995.
 
     The Unaudited Pro Forma Information gives effect only to the
reclassifications and adjustments set forth in the accompanying Notes to
Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements and does not reflect any cost
savings and other synergies anticipated by Kimberly-Clark's management as a
result of the Merger. The Unaudited Pro Forma Information would not change
significantly if the Specialty Products Business Spinoff (as defined in the
Proxy Statement/Prospectus), which occurred on November 30, 1995, were given
effect. The Unaudited Pro Forma Information is not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations which would have occurred had the Merger been consummated
on January 1, 1990, or the financial position which would have occurred had the
Merger been consummated on September 30, 1995, nor is it necessarily indicative
of Kimberly-Clark's future results of operations or financial position.
 
     The Unaudited Pro Forma Information should be read in conjunction with the
historical Consolidated Financial Statements of Kimberly-Clark and Scott which
are incorporated by reference in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
 
     The Unaudited Pro Forma Information includes financial data for Scott for
the 39-week periods ended September 24, 1994 and September 30, 1995. For ease of
reference, all column headings used in the Unaudited Pro Forma Information refer
to the period-ended dates of Kimberly-Clark.

           NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
 
     The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statements of Income reflect
Kimberly-Clark's results of operations for the nine-month periods ended
September 30, 1994 and 1995 on a pro forma basis assuming the Merger had been
consummated on January 1, 1990. The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet
at September 30, 1995 assumes that the Merger had been consummated on that date.
 
     Kimberly-Clark's management believes that the assumptions used in preparing
the Unaudited Pro Forma Information provide a reasonable basis for presenting
all of the significant effects of the Merger, that the pro forma adjustments
give appropriate effect to those assumptions and that the pro forma adjustments
are properly applied in the Unaudited Pro Forma Information.
 
     Kimberly-Clark anticipates that certain adjustments will be made to Scott's
historical consolidated financial statements to conform to certain accounting
policies of Kimberly-Clark in connection with the preparation of the latter's
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995. None of
these adjustments have been included in the Unaudited Pro Forma Information
because the necessary information is not yet available. The effect of these
adjustments is not expected to be material to either the Unaudited Pro Forma
Information or the pro forma financial information included in the Proxy
Statement/Prospectus.
 
NOTE 2. PRO FORMA RECLASSIFICATIONS:
 
(a) The pro forma entry to Net Sales represents a reclassification of certain
     Scott trade promotion costs from Net Sales to Advertising, promotion and
     selling expenses to conform to Kimberly-Clark's accounting classification.
 
(b) The pro forma entry to Costs of products sold represents a reclassification
     of Scott warehousing costs from Marketing and distribution expenses to
     conform to Kimberly-Clark's accounting classification.
 
(c) The pro forma entry to Research and general expenses represents the
     reclassification of certain Scott marketing, research and administration
     costs from Marketing and distribution expenses to conform to
     Kimberly-Clark's accounting classification.
 
(d) The pro forma entry to Other income (expense), net represents the
     reclassification of gains or losses on dispositions of Scott property from
     Scott's accounting classification to conform to Kimberly-Clark's accounting
     classification.
 
(e) The pro forma entry to Minority owners' share of subsidiaries' net income
     represents the reclassification of minority owners' share of Scott's
     subsidiaries' net income from Other income (expense), net to conform to
     Kimberly-Clark's accounting classification.
 
NOTE 3. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS:
 
  STATEMENTS OF INCOME:
 
(f) This pro forma adjustment reflects the adoption of SFAS No. 106 "Employers'
     Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions" ("SFAS No.
     106") with respect to the Scott health care and life insurance benefit
     plans, effective January 1, 1992, using the immediate transition option to
     conform to the accounting policy of Kimberly-Clark. In the historical
     Consolidated Financial Statements of Scott, SFAS No. 106 was adopted using
     the delayed recognition option under which the transition obligation is
     amortized on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service
     period of active plan participants, which was approximately 16 years.
     Scott's amortization of the transition obligation has been reversed for the
     39-week periods ended September 30, 1995 and September 24, 1994. The tax
     benefit related to the amortization of such transition obligation for these
     periods has likewise been reversed.

                           KIMBERLY-CLARK CORPORATION
 
     NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
(g) The pro forma adjustment to Weighted Average Shares Outstanding represents
     the issuance of approximately 119.6 million shares of Common Stock, $1.25
     par value, of Kimberly-Clark constituting the Share Issuance (as defined in
     the Proxy Statement/Prospectus).
 
  BALANCE SHEET:
 
(h) The pro forma adjustment to Preferred Stock represents the redemption of all
     of the outstanding Cumulative Senior Preferred Shares of Scott for cash.
 
(i) The pro forma adjustments to Property, Deferred Charges and Other Assets,
     Restructuring liabilities, Deferred Income Taxes, Minority Owners'
     Interests in Subsidiaries and Common Stockholders' Equity represent the
     estimated balance sheet effects of a one-time charge in the fourth quarter
     of 1995 covering the costs of the Merger, for restructuring the combined
     operations and for other unusual items. The pre-tax amount of this charge
     is currently estimated to be $1.4 billion and includes: (i) the costs of
     plant rationalizations and employee terminations to eliminate duplicate
     facilities and excess capacity; (ii) the costs of integrating the
     businesses of the two companies; (iii) the direct costs of the Merger,
     including the fees of financial advisors, legal counsel and independent
     auditors; and (iv) other unusual items. The after-tax cost of such charge
     is currently estimated to be $1.1 billion. For purposes of the Unaudited
     Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet at September 30, 1995, the adjustments for
     this charge were based on the assumption that $760 million of the one-time
     pre-tax charge is attributable to the write-off of property, $40 million is
     attributable to other assets and $640 million is attributable to estimated
     future cash payments. The write-off of property, net of estimated cash
     proceeds from dispositions, was credited to Property and the estimated
     future cash payments charge was recorded as Restructuring liabilities.
     Estimated income tax benefits of $360 million were charged to Deferred
     Income Taxes, and $9 million of the after-tax charge attributable to
     minority owners' interests was deducted from Minority Owners' Interests in
     Subsidiaries.
 
(j) The pro forma adjustments to Other Noncurrent Obligations, Principally
     Employee Benefits; Deferred Income Taxes; and Common Stockholders' Equity
     represent the cumulative effects of the pro forma adjustments with respect
     to the adoption of SFAS No. 106 by Scott to conform to the accounting
     policy of Kimberly-Clark. See Note (f) above and Notes (f), (g), (i) and
     (k) of Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements included
     in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
 
  NET INCOME PER SHARE:
 
     Net Income per share of Kimberly-Clark Common Stock is computed by dividing
     Net Income by the Weighted Average Shares Outstanding for each period.
