THE TORO COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
APRIL 29, 1994
1. BACKGROUND
The information furnished reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion
of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
periods. The Toro Company's business is seasonal. Operating results
for the three months and nine months ended April 29, 1994 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
fiscal year ending July 31, 1994.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report for the
year ended July 31, 1993. The policies described in that report are
used in preparing quarterly reports.
2. INVENTORIES
Substantially all inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net
realizable value with cost determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO)
method. If the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of cost determination
had been used, inventories would have been $17,221,000 and $13,365,000
higher than the levels reported as of the end of the first nine months
of fiscal years 1994 and 1993, respectively. Using the FIFO method,
inventories would have been $64,907,000 and $54,157,000 of work-in-
process and $75,976,000 and $58,562,000 of finished goods in fiscal
years 1994 and 1993, respectively.
3. DEFERRED INCOME
The Company entered into an interest rate exchange agreement with a bank
during the third quarter to preserve the value of the call option
included in its $50 million, 11% long-term sinking fund notes due
August 1, 2017, and to realize the benefit of current interest rates. As a
result of this agreement the Company received $5.25 million from the
bank, which is recorded on the balance sheet as deferred income. In
return, the Company is obligated to pay the bank 10.25% on a notational
amount of $50 million from August 1, 1997 through July 31, 2002 and the
Company will receive payments based on a floating rate equal to LIBOR on
the notational amount of $50 million for the same period.
The net interest rate differential to be received or paid and the $5.25
million deferred income will be recognized, commencing August 1, 1997,
over the term of the agreement as an adjustment to interest expense.
In accordance with FASB Statement 107 "Disclosures about Fair Value of
Financial Instruments" the cost to terminate this agreement at April 29,
1994, had management elected to do so, was approximately $3.7 million
which would have resulted in a gain of approximately $1.6 million.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total assets for the Company as of April 29, 1994 were $530.3 million, an
increase of $39.5 million, or 8.1%, from the $490.8 million reported at the
end of the third quarter last year. The increase resulted primarily from
increases in trade receivables and inventory. The increase in trade
receivables is directly related to increased sales volume. Inventory
increased as a result of building product to meet increased demand coupled
with production plans implemented to accommodate previous consolidation of
manufacturing plants.
Total debt as of April 29, 1994 was $166.5 million, or $26.1 million less
than the $192.6 million reported at the end of the third quarter last year.
The ratio of total debt to total capital of 50.4% has improved from the 57.8%
reported as of April 30, 1993. The lower debt ratio resulted from the
reduced debt levels combined with an increase in equity as a result of fiscal
1994 earnings to date.
The business of the Company is seasonal. Historically, accounts receivable
balances increase throughout the winter months as a result of extended
payment terms made available to customers (distributors and dealers) and
decrease in the late spring when payments become due. Peak borrowing usually
occurs in the third quarter. The seasonal working capital requirements of
the business are financed primarily with short-term debt. Management
believes that the combination of funds available through existing financing
options, coupled with forecasted cash flows, will provide the capital
resources necessary to meet the Company's working capital requirements.

<PAGE>
Changes in net sales for the third quarter and year to date were attributed
to the following factors. Consumer product sales reflect increased sales of
walk power mowers, electric products and the continued acceptance of the new
lower-priced lawn tractor introduced last spring. These increases were
attributed to heavy ordering by distributors and mass merchandisers in
anticipation of a better retail selling season than last year, expansion of
the distribution channel and retail network, and strong acceptance of new
products. The commercial product sales decrease for the third quarter was
primarily attributable to an aggressive introduction of the new Workman-TM-
vehicle in fiscal 1993 and earlier shipments to distributors in the first
half of fiscal 1994 to replenish low field inventory levels. On a year to
date basis, commercial product sales are experiencing an increase over the
prior year. The irrigation product sales increase reflects improving
domestic economic conditions and changes in the distribution network
implemented in the first quarter of this fiscal year. The slight increase in
irrigation sales year to date reflects some strengthening in the domestic
market. The international sales increase was attributed to increases in
commercial product sales, particularly the new Workman-TM- vehicle which was
new in the market last year.
Gross profit of $97.7 million was $13.9 million (16.6%) higher than the $83.8
million reported for the third quarter of fiscal 1993. As a percent of
sales, gross profit increased slightly to 35.3% for the third quarter of
fiscal 1994 compared to 34.7% for the third quarter last year. Year to date
gross profit was $213.3 million, $36.9 million (20.9%) higher than the $176.4
million reported last year. The dollar increase is attributed to increased
sales volume and improved manufacturing efficiencies.
Selling, general and administrative (S G & A) expenses increased $11.3
million, or 19.0%, to $70.8 million from the $59.5 million for the third
quarter last year. Year to date S G & A of $179.6 million increased $29.5
million from the $150.1 million reported a year ago. The increases occurred
principally as a result of investments in consumer product brand advertising,
customer support services related to changes made in irrigation's
distribution channel, research and development expenditures, a consumer
warranty provision for a lawn tractor component modification, and start-up
costs for the fertilizer and debris businesses.
Interest expense of $3.6 million for the quarter was $1.0 million, or 21.7%,
less than the $4.6 million the same period last year. Year to date interest
expense decreased $2.8 million to $10.2 million from the $13.0 million
reported a year ago. These decreases are principally because of the
reduction in long-term debt.
Net other income increased $2.0 million to $2.8 million from $0.8 million
from the third quarter last year. The increase resulted primarily from the
settlement of a patent infringement lawsuit and the sale of the portable
heater business. Year to date net other income of $6.9 million is $3.4
million higher than the $3.5 million reported a year ago. The year to date
increase reflects $1.85 million received in settlement of a lawsuit relating
to the purchase of Lawn-Boy, Inc., as well as the items mentioned above. In
addition to the items listed, other income includes foreign currency exchange
losses, royalty income and gains/losses incurred on joint ventures.
Provision for income taxes as a percent of pre-tax earnings was 40.0% for the
third quarter of fiscal 1994 and provision for income taxes as a percent of
pre-tax loss was 38.0% for the same period in fiscal 1993. The tax rate
increase reflects the enactment of the new tax law. The tax rate is expected
to remain at 40% for the remainder of fiscal 1994.
We are optimistic about our outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year, and
have good momentum to carry us into fiscal 1995.
