BED BATH & BEYOND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, except for the February 25,
1996 consolidated balance sheet, have been prepared without audit. In the
opinion of Management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary
to present fairly the financial position of Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. and
subsidiaries (the "Company") as of August 25, 1996 and February 25, 1996 and the
results of their operations for the three month and six month periods ended
August 25, 1996 and August 27, 1995, respectively, and cash flows for the six
month periods ended August 25, 1996 and August 27, 1995. Because of the
seasonality of the specialty retailing business, operating results of the
Company on a quarterly basis may not be indicative of operating results for the
full year.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in
accordance with the requirements for Form 10-Q and consequently do not include
all the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting
principles. Reference should be made to Bed Bath & Beyond Inc.'s Annual Report
for the fiscal year ended February 25, 1996 for additional disclosures,
including a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies.
2) STOCK SPLIT
On March 28, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a two-for-one
split of the Company's common stock effected in the form of a 100% stock
dividend. The stock split was distributed on April 30, 1996 to shareholders of
record on April 10, 1996. Accordingly, all share and per share data have been
adjusted to give effect to the stock split.
3) AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
In July 1996, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation was amended to increase
the number of authorized shares of Common Stock (par value $ .01 per share) from
100,000,000 shares to 150,000,000 shares.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months August 25, 1996 vs. Three Months August 27, 1995
Net sales for the second quarter ended August 25, 1996 were $203.5 million, an
increase of $53.4 million or approximately 35.6% over net sales of $150.1
million for the corresponding quarter last year. Approximately 87.2% of the
increase was attributable to new store net sales. The increase in comparable
store net sales in the second quarter of 1996 was approximately 4.9%.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 1996 was $83.9 million or 41.2% of net
sales compared with $62.2 million or 41.5% of net sales during the second
quarter of 1995. The decrease of approximately 0.3% in gross profit, as a
percentage of net sales, was attributable to a number of factors, including a
different mix of sales during the second quarter of this year compared with the
mix of sales in the corresponding period last year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $58.9 million in the
second quarter of 1996 compared with $43.3 million in the same quarter last year
and as a percentage of net sales were 28.9% and 28.8%, respectively. The
increase of approximately 0.1% in SG&A, as a percentage of net sales, was
primarily attributable to an increase in occupancy costs, which was partially
offset by a decrease in payroll and payroll related items.
Operating profit in the second quarter of 1996 increased to $25.0 million from
$18.9 million in the second quarter of 1995, reflecting primarily the increase
in net sales which was partially offset by increases in cost of sales and SG&A.
Six Months August 25, 1996 vs. Six Months August 27, 1995
Net sales for the six months ended August 25, 1996 were $363.2 million, an
increase of $99.6 million or approximately 37.8% over net sales of $263.6
million for the corresponding period last year. Approximately 84.5% of the
increase was attributable to new store net sales. The increase in comparable
store net sales for the first six months of 1996 was approximately 6.2%.
Gross profit for the first six months of 1996 was $149.7 million or 41.2% of net
sales compared with $109.1 million or 41.4% of net sales during the same period
last year. The decrease of approximately 0.2% in gross profit, as a percentage
of net sales, was attributable to a number of factors, including a different mix
of sales during the first six months of this year compared with the mix of sales
in the corresponding period last year.
SG&A expenses were $112.0 million in the first six months of 1996 compared with
$80.4 million for the same period last year and as a percentage of net sales
were 30.8% and 30.5% respectively. The increase of approximately 0.3% in SG&A,
as a percentage of net sales, was primarily attributable to increases in
occupancy costs and expenses associated with new store openings, which were
partially offset by a decrease in payroll and payroll related items.
-7-
<PAGE> 8
Operating profit in the first six months of 1996 increased to $37.7 million from
$28.7 million for the same period last year, primarily resulting from the
increase in net sales, which was partially offset by a slight increase in cost
of sales and SG&A expenses.
EXPANSION PROGRAM
The Company is engaged in an ongoing expansion program involving the opening of
new stores in both existing and new markets and the expansion or replacement of
existing stores with new, larger stores. As a result of this program, the total
number of stores has increased to 90 stores at the end of the second quarter of
1996 compared with 67 stores at the end of the corresponding quarter last year.
Total square footage grew to 3,619,000 square feet at the end of the second
quarter of 1996, from 2,620,000 square feet at the end of the second quarter of
last year.
During the first six months of fiscal 1996, the Company opened 10 new
superstores and expanded one store resulting in an aggregate addition of
405,000 square feet to total store space. The Company anticipates opening an
additional seventeen superstores by the end of the fiscal year, aggregating
approximately 650,000 square feet of store space.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets at August 25, 1996 were $291.5 million compared with $235.8 million
at February 25, 1996, an increase of $55.7 million. Of the total increase, $45.9
million represented an increase in current assets and $9.8 million represented
an increase in non-current assets. The increase in current assets was primarily
attributable to an increase in merchandise inventories, which resulted from new
store space and, to a lesser extent, the expansion of merchandise categories and
assortments, as well as seasonal requirements.
Total liabilities at August 25, 1996 were $112.0 million compared with $84.4
million at February 25, 1996, an increase of $27.6 million. The increase was
primarily attributable to a $20.3 million increase in accounts payable
(resulting from an increase in inventories) and an $11.0 million increase in
accrued expenses and other current liabilities, which was partially offset by a
$5.0 million decrease in long-term debt.
Shareholders' equity was $179.5 million at August 25, 1996 compared with $151.4
million at February 25, 1996. The increase primarily reflects net earnings for
the first six months of fiscal 1996 and additional paid-in capital from the
exercise of stock options.
Capital expenditures for the first six months of fiscal 1996 were $13.9 million
compared with $7.0 million for the corresponding period last year. The increase
is primarily attributable to furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements
for the ten new superstores opened and one store expanded during the first six
months compared to furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements for the
six new superstores opened and one expanded store in the same period last year.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q may contain forward looking statements. Important factors which
may affect these statements are contained in the Company's Annual Report to
shareholders for the fiscal year ended February 25, 1996.
