MATTEL THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS INCREASE 26 PERCENT;
MOMENTUM ASSURES ANOTHER RECORD YEAR
------------------------------------
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18 -- Mattel, Inc. today reported record net
income of $131.8 million or $.72 per share for the third quarter
ended Sept. 30, 1994, up 26 percent from $104.7 million or $.58
per share in the 1993 quarter. Net sales also reached record
levels, increasing 16 percent to $1.04 billion from $897 million
last year.
For the first nine months of 1994, net income increased 30
percent to a record $213.0 million or $1.15 per share, versus
$163.9 million or $.91 per share in the first nine months of 1993
before accounting changes. Net sales were a record $2.17
billion, up 11 percent from $1.95 billion in 1993.
"We are most pleased with Mattel's performance for the third
quarter and nine months," John W. Amerman, Mattel's chairman and
chief executive officer, said. "Despite the fact that shipping
patterns are changing to later in the year and many countries
outside the United States continue to be in a recessionary
environment, Mattel's performance in each quarter this year has
exceeded our expectations," he said.

"The company's capacity to generate cash continues to be
excellent. Mattel's senior debt, net of acquisitions, declined
by more than $80 million versus year ago, and cash is up by
approximately $35 million versus the same time last year,"
Amerman said. "As was expected, the Kransco and Spear
acquisitions only had a minor effect on third quarter
profitability. We do anticipate profitable impact from these
acquisitions in the fourth quarter, which will help ensure
achievement of our 1994 goal.
"Strong consumer demand for the full range of Mattel
products, coupled with our unique ability to support retailer
requirements, bodes well for the 1994 holiday season," he said.
"Excellent growth of Barbie in the U.S. has been a strong
foundation for our success in 1994. Disney products, led by 'The
Lion King'; Fisher-Price toys; Hot Wheels vehicles and playsets,
and Polly Pocket are helping to draw consumers into toy retail
stores. As a result, we are confident that 1994 will be the
sixth consecutive year of record sales and record earnings for
Mattel," Amerman said.
Mattel, Inc. is a worldwide leader in the design,
manufacture and marketing of children's toys. With headquarters
in El Segundo, California, Mattel has offices and facilities in
34 foreign countries and sells its products in more than 140
nations throughout the world.
