MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1997, the sixteen weeks ended March
8, 1997, were $945,258,000, an $18,776,000, or 2.0%, increase over prior year
net sales of $926,482,000. Excluding the impact of acquired and disposed
operations, net sales for the quarter were up 4.5%. Year-to-date net sales
for fiscal 1997 were $2,457,261,000, an increase of $324,801,000, or 15.2%,
over net sales of $2,132,460,000 in fiscal 1996. The increase in quarterly
net sales reflects higher selling prices and higher retail sales, with
essentially flat unit volume. The substantial increase in year-to-date net
sales was attributable to the acquisition of Continental Baking Company (CBC)
on July 22, 1995, with fiscal 1996 reflecting only thirty-three weeks of CBC's
operations.
Cost of products sold was 49.3% of net sales for the third quarter of 1997,
down from 50.8% of net sales in the prior year. Year-to-date cost of products
sold was 49.1% compared to fiscal 1996's 51.0%. These improvements resulted
from synergies realized through continuing integration of existing and
acquired operations and favorable mix changes to higher-margin branded
products. These factors, along with higher selling prices, more than offset
the effect of higher ingredient costs experienced in fiscal 1997.
Selling, delivery and administrative expenses represented 42.7% of net sales
for the quarter compared to 43.8% the prior year, while year-to-date selling,
delivery and administrative expenses declined to 42.2% of net sales from 42.9%
in fiscal 1996. Continued emphasis on cost control, integration synergies and
higher selling prices resulted in improved selling, delivery and
administrative expenses as a percent of net sales for the combined operation
in fiscal 1997.
Based upon these factors, operating income for the third quarter of fiscal
1997 was up $28,557,000, or 161.2%, to $46,268,000. Year-to-date operating
income was $136,129,000, a $81,201,000 and 147.8% increase from fiscal 1996.
The lower interest expense for the third quarter and year-to-date reflects
lower average borrowing levels and interest rates during these periods.
Non-deductible intangible asset amortization was responsible for the effective
tax rates of 43.1% and 51.4% in fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Reflecting the improved operations, net income for the third quarter of the
current year was $22,629,000, or $.59 per share, compared to $4,166,000 and
$.11 per share the prior year. Year-to-date net income improved to
$67,538,000, or $1.78 per share, from $15,987,000, or $.47 per share, last
year. These earnings per share improvements amounted to 436% and 279%,
respectively.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Changes in Financial Condition
- ------------------------------
Cash generated by operating activities for the forty weeks ended March 8, 1997
was $144,327,000 compared to $113,639,000 a year ago. This increase reflects
the acquisition and improved operations, offset by a net increase in working
capital and some reduction in long-term liabilities. Cash generated by
operations during fiscal 1997 was used to fund capital expenditures of
$54,203,000, pay common stock dividends of $14,789,000 and reduce debt by
$86,205,000.
During the third quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company converted all bank debt
to revolving credit loans by repaying all term loans and reduced total
borrowing capacity from $550,000,000 to $350,000,000. The maturity date of
all revolving credit loans continues to be May 2000 and interest rates on the
borrowings were reduced slightly.
On March 29, 1997, the Company acquired the assets of the San Francisco French
Bread Company (SFFB), a wholly owned subsidiary of Speciality Foods
Corporation. SFFB, which produces and distributes sourdough bread and rolls
throughout Northern California and in the San Diego area, has annual sales of
approximately $95,000,000 and employs 1,100 people at five bakery locations.
As noted in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June
1, 1996, cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under the bank
credit facility should be sufficient to meet the ongoing cash requirements in
the current year.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Acquisition
-----------
During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, effective July 22, 1995, Interstate
Bakeries Corporation (the "Company") acquired Continental Baking Company
("CBC") from Ralston Purina Company for a total purchase price of $220,000,000
in cash and 16,923,077 shares of the Company's common stock. Third quarter
year-to-date operating results for fiscal 1996 include CBC's operating results
for thirty-three weeks, effective with the date of the acquisition.
2. Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation
---------------------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which, in the
opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations and cash flows. Results of operations for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a
full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. Inventories
-----------
The components of inventories are as follows:

The provision for income taxes for the current quarter of both fiscal years
includes any adjustments for revisions in the projected annual effective tax
rate.
5. Adoption of New Accounting Standard
- ---------------------------------------
Effective with the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company adopted Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of".
Under SFAS No. 121, impairment losses are recognized when information
indicates the carrying amount of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles
and goodwill related to those assets will not be recovered through future
operations or disposal. The adoption of this statement had no effect on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
6. Bank Credit Agreement
- -------------------------
During the third quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company converted all bank debt
to revolving credit loans by repaying all term loans and reduced total
borrowing capacity from $550,000,000 to $350,000,000. The maturity date of
all revolving credit loans continues to be May 2000 and interest rates on the
borrowings were reduced slightly.
7. Subsequent Event
- --------------------
Effective March 29, 1997, the Company acquired the assets of the San Francisco
French Bread Company (SFFB), a wholly owned subsidiary of Specialty Foods
Corporation. SFFB, which produces and distributes sourdough breads and rolls
throughout Northern California and in the San Diego area, has annual sales of
approximately $95,000,000 and employs 1,100 people at five bakery locations.
