MATTEL REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
------------------------------------
LOS ANGELES, April 18 -- Mattel, Inc. today reported first quarter
net income of $27.0 million or $.12 per share, up 12 percent from
$24.1 million or $.10 per share in 1994. Net sales were $543.6
million, up 12 percent from $487.3 million for the same quarter
last year.
"The strong Mattel momentum shown at the end of 1994 continues
in 1995, with consumer and retail trade demand remaining excellent
for our core product lines -- Barbie, Fisher-Price, Disney and Hot
Wheels," John W. Amerman, Mattel's chairman and chief executive
officer, said.
"In total, these core brand sales that account for approximately
80 percent of Mattel's volume grew 15 percent in the first quarter,
versus the year-ago period," Amerman said. "We're also benefitting
from outstanding consumer demand for additional products such as
Polly Pocket and Street Sharks, which are currently two of the most
sought-after toys at retail.

"While the majority of our business occurs in the second half
of the year, the strong early retail trade and consumer response
gives us confidence we will meet our 1995 targets, and Mattel will
achieve its seventh consecutive year of record sales and earnings,"
Amerman said.
Mattel, Inc. is the worldwide leader in the design, manufacture
and marketing of children's toys. With headquarters in El Segundo,
California, Mattel has offices and facilities in 36 countries and
sells its products in more than 140 nations throughout the world.
