HUDSON FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The financial statements for the periods ended January 1, 1994
and January 2, 1993 include, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments (none of which were other than normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the results of operations
and cash flows for such periods. Results for the three-month
period ended January 1, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the
results which will be realized for the year ending October 1,
1994. The annual report for the year ended October 2, 1993
contains additional information which should be read in
conjunction with these financial statements.
2. Accounting Change-Income Taxes. Beginning in fiscal year 1994,
the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires that
deferred income tax liabilities and assets be recognized for
differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and
their financial reporting amounts, measured by using presently
enacted tax laws and rates. The Company elected to apply the
provisions of SFAS 109 retroactively to September 28, 1986. As a
result, a deferred tax liability and a corresponding increase in
property, plant and equipment of $13,535,000 was recognized for the
difference between the assigned values and the tax basis of assets
and liabilities previously acquired in 1986 (Corbett Enterprises,
Inc.), 1987 (Thies Companies, Inc.) and 1990 (Pierre Frozen Foods,
Inc.). The adoption of SFAS 109 did not effect net income since
increases in depreciation expense, due to adjustments for prior
business combinations, were offset by the amortization of the
deferred income taxes. Net property, plant and equipment and
deferred income taxes as of October 2, 1993 were each increased by
$8,234,000 from the amounts previously reported to give effect to
the retroactive adoption of SFAS 109. Additionally, the statement
of operations for the three-month period ended January 2, 1993 has
been restated to increase cost of sales and decrease income tax
expense by $206,000.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Hudson Foods, Inc.
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Hudson
Foods, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 1, 1994, and the related
condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three month
periods ended January 1, 1994, and January 2, 1993, and the
condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three month
periods ended January 1, 1994 and January 2, 1993. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A
review of interim financial information consists principally of
applying analytical procedures to financial data and making
inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not
express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial
statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of October
2, 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations and
cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in
our report dated November 2, 1993, we expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our
opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of October 2, 1993 is fairly stated
in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance
sheet from which it has been derived.
As described in note 2, in fiscal 1994 the Company changed its
method of accounting for income taxes.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
Hudson Foods, Inc. is a poultry producer and food processor. The
Company's profitability is affected by finished product prices,
the price of feed grains and other factors.
The Company's selling prices for some chicken and turkey products
are influenced by industry commodity market prices. However,
since many factors are involved in pricing, commodity market
prices should only be used as a general indicator of the
Company's selling prices.
For the first three months of fiscal 1994, average commodity
broiler and turkey market prices were up 3 cents per pound and 5
cents per pound, respectively, from the averages for the first
three months of fiscal 1993.
Inflation has not materially affected sales or cost of sales
during the current and prior year.
<PAGE>
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 1994 COMPARED WITH
FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 1993.
Sales increased $18.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal
1994 from the same period of fiscal 1993. The sales increase was
primarily due to higher volumes of chicken and portioned entree
products and higher selling prices for some chicken products.
Chicken volume increased primarily due to the Company's
entrance into new international markets.
Portioned entree volume increased primarily due to new
product lines and new customers.
Total poultry sales volume increased to 201.4 million dressed
pounds, representing 60.8% of total sales dollars. This compares
with the fiscal 1993 first quarter total of 193.1 million dressed
pounds, which was 62.5% of total sales dollars.
Processed meat sales volume, some of which included poultry raw
materials, was 57.0 million and 52.8 million pounds for the first
quarter of fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1993, respectively.
Cost of sales increased $9.3 million for the first quarter of
fiscal 1994 from the same period of fiscal 1993. The cost of
sales increase was primarily due to increased volume and higher
feed and ingredient costs.
The Company's gross profit percentage increased 2.8% for the first
quarter of fiscal 1994 from the same period of fiscal 1993
primarily due to increased selling prices for some chicken products
and increased operating efficiencies.
Selling and general and administrative expenses as a percentage
of sales were 10.3% and 8.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 1994
and fiscal 1993, respectively. Selling expenses increased in the
areas of commissions, rebates, advertising, distribution,
demonstration, new product development and storage expenses
primarily related to new products and increased international
sales. General and administrative expenses were up as a result of
incentive compensation accruals.
Other expense is composed of interest expense and interest income.
<PAGE>
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
At January 1, 1994, working capital was $111.2 million compared
with $103.8 million at October 2, 1993 and the current ratio was
2.32 to 1 and 2.28 to 1 at January 1, 1994 and October 2, 1993,
respectively. Working capital increased, in part, due to:
1) increased accounts receivable as a result of sales to new
customers and sales of new products and 2) increased other current
assets due to insurance claim receivables resulting from fire
losses. These increases were somewhat offset by a decrease in
total inventories.
Beginning in fiscal year 1994, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for
Income Taxes," which requires that deferred tax liabilities and
assets be recognized for any difference between the tax basis of
assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts
measured by using presently enacted tax laws and rates. The
Company elected to apply the provisions of SFAS 109 retroactively
to September 28, 1986. As a result, the Company restated the
October 2, 1993 balance sheet as follows: 1) property, plant and
equipment cost increased $13.5 million, 2) accumulated
depreciation increased $5.3 million and 3) deferred income taxes
increased $8.2 million. (See note 2 of the condensed consolidated
financial statements.)
The Company's capital budget for fiscal 1994 contemplates aggregate
capital expenditures of approximately $50 million to upgrade and/or
expand current production facilities and related equipment. The
capital expenditures have been and will be financed by operations,
borrowings under the Company's credit agreement and/or lease
arrangements. Additionally, the Company also plans to build a new
chicken complex and is now researching alternative sites.
For the first three months of fiscal 1994 and 1993, the Company
had capital expenditures of $6.5 million and $9.2 million,
respectively. Those expenditures were primarily for upgrading
and expanding production facilities and related equipment.
The Company uses the farm price method of inventory valuation for
income tax reporting which results in current deferred income taxes
for financial reporting. The Company anticipates that it will be
able to maintain its inventory at current levels and accordingly,
does not expect a significant portion of the current deferred
income tax to be paid in the near future. At January 1, 1994,
current deferred income taxes relating to the farm price method
were $13.3 million.
<PAGE>
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED)
Historically, the Company's operations have been financed through
internally generated funds, borrowings, lease arrangements and
the issuance of common stock. The Company's line of credit, which
expires September 30, 1996, provides for aggregate borrowings or
letters of credit up to $100 million. The credit agreement, among
other things, limits the payment of dividends to $2.5 million in
any fiscal year and limits annual capital expenditures. It also
requires the maintenance of minimum working capital and tangible
net worth, and requires that working capital and debt-to-equity
ratios be maintained at certain levels. At January 1, 1994, the
Company had available credit lines of $87.3 million. The Company
had short-term debt borrowed under the line of $5.5 million and
had outstanding letters of credit of $7.2 million.
