ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.
 
    Dayton Hudson Credit Card Master Trust (the "Trust") was formed pursuant to
a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of September 13, 1995 (as amended,
modified or supplemented, the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement"), by and among
Retailers National Bank, as servicer ("Servicer"), Dayton Hudson Receivables
Corporation, as transferor ("Transferor"), and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National
Association, as trustee ("Trustee"). The Trust's only business is to act as a
passive conduit to permit investments in a pool of Transferor's consumer
accounts receivable. The Transferor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a
corporation that is wholly-owned by Dayton Hudson Corporation.
 
ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.
 
    The assets of the Trust (the "Trust Assets") include a portfolio of
receivables (the "Receivables") generated from time to time in a portfolio of
consumer open-end credit card accounts (the "Accounts"), funds collected or to
be collected in respect of the Receivables, monies on deposit in certain
accounts of the Trust, any participation interests included in the Trust, funds
collected or to be collected with respect to such participation interests and
any enhancement with respect to a particular series or class. The Trust Assets
are expected to change over the life of the Trust as receivables in consumer
open-end credit card accounts and other open-end credit accounts and related
assets are included in the Trust and as Receivables in Accounts included in the
Trust are charged-off or removed.
 
    Exhibit 99.2 to this Report sets forth certain information relating to the
Trust's fiscal year ended December 31, 1996. Such information, which was derived
from the monthly settlement statements relating to such period as delivered to
the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, is incorporated
herein by reference.
 
ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
    None.
 
ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
 
    None.
 
                                    PART II
 
ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
 
    In September 1995, the Trust issued $400,000,000 of three year 6.10% Class A
Certificates to the public (the "Series 1995 Certificates"). In August 1996, the
Trust issued Series 1996-1 Class A Variable Funding Certificates in a private
transaction (the "Series 1996 Certificates"). The principal amount of the Series
1996 Certificates fluctuates and currently may not exceed $100 million.
 
    Although they trade in the over-the-counter market to a limited extent,
there is currently no established public trading market for the Series 1995
Certificates. The Series 1995 Certificates are held and delivered in book-entry
form through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), a "clearing
agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The definitive Series 1995 Certificates are
held by Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC.
 
    The undivided interests in the Trust, other than those represented by the
Series 1995 Certificates and the Series 1996 Certificates, are owned by the
Transferor and the Servicer.

           The Transferor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a corporation that is
       wholly-owned by Dayton Hudson Corporation. The principal executive office
       of Dayton Hudson Corporation is 777 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, MN 55402.
 
           At the date hereof, 100% of the Series 1995 Certificates were held in
       the nominee name of Cede & Co. for beneficial owners. To the Transferor's
       knowledge, based solely on the fact that Transferor has not received
       notice of any filings having been made with the Securities and Exchange
       Commission reporting the acquisition of more than 5% of the Series 1995
       Certificates, no person beneficially owned more than 5% of the Series
       1995 Certificates. The Series 1996 Certificates are held by an
       administrative agent on behalf of several beneficial owners and interests
       in the Series 1996 Certificates are not freely transferable.
 
           The undivided interests in the Trust, other than that represented by
       the Series 1995 Certificates and the Series 1996 Certificates, are owned
       by the Transferor and the Servicer.
 
    B.  SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT.
 
           Not applicable.
 
    C.  CHANGES IN CONTROL.
 
           Not applicable.
 
ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
 
    Except for the information concerning the compensation paid to Servicer by
the Trust contained in Exhibit 99.2 hereto, which is hereby incorporated herein
by reference, and other transactions contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Transferor is not aware of any transactions or series of similar
transactions during its fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, or any currently
proposed transaction or series
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
of similar transactions, in which the amount involved exceeded or is proposed to
exceed $60,000, to which the Trust was a party or is proposed to be a party, and
in which any person known to the Registrant to own more than 5% of any class of
certificates representing undivided interests in the Trust had or has a direct
or indirect material interest.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
Dayton Hudson Corporation,
its Officers and Directors
    and
Dayton Hudson Receivables Corporation,
its Officers and Directors
As Transferor
    and
Retailers National Bank,
its Officers and Directors
As Servicer
    and
Norwest Bank, National Association,
As Trustee
 
    We have audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
the statements of financial condition of Retailers National Bank ("the Bank"),
as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the related statements of income,
stockholder's equity and cash flows for the years then ended and have issued our
report thereon dated January 22, 1997.
 
    Our audit, referred to in the preceding paragraph, included procedures
applied to the documents and records relating to the servicing of credit card
receivables, all of which are subject to the provisions of the Dayton Hudson
Credit Card Master Trust Pooling and Servicing Agreement ("the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement") dated as of September 13, 1995. Our procedures were as
follows:
 
    Documents and records relating to the servicing of credit card receivables
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement:
 
    1.  Using an audit software application applied to the servicing portfolio
       as of September 30, 1996, we clerically tested the summarization of
       credit card receivables by credit card label, by billing cycle,
       individually and in total for all aging categories for a sample of
       periods in 1996 through September 30, 1996.
 
    2.  We read documentation of Internal Audit's sample clerical tests of the
       aging of credit card receivable cycles at September 30, 1996.
 
    3.  We documented the process of sales that generate credit card receivables
       and tested the related controls as of September 30, 1996. Per subsequent
       inquiry of Dayton Hudson Corporation and Bank management, we were
       informed that no significant changes occurred in the related systems,
       controls or process through our report date.
 
    4.  We confirmed a sample of 151 credit card receivables as of September 30,
       1996. Ten responses noting differences were appropriately resolved by
       Internal Audit.
 
    5.  We read documentation of Internal Audit's procedures related to new
       account application processes, credit scoring/credit approval processes,
       new account system set-up processes, remittance processing, monthly
       statement processing, collections, and credit card receivables curing. We
       also examined documentation of the execution of write-off practices to
       determine compliance
 
                                       12
<PAGE>
       with applicable Office of the Comptroller of the Currency regulations and
       generally accepted accounting principles.
 
    6.  We documented the process of preparing the migration analysis to support
       the allowance for credit loss. We performed clerical tests of the
       underlying formulas and traced aging information to supporting cycle
       documentation tested above. We also assessed the adequacy of the
       allowance for credit losses.
 
    7.  We analytically reviewed allowance-related ratios (e.g., allowance as a
       percentage of total credit card receivables, year-to-date write-offs as a
       percentage of the allowance, year-to-date write-offs as a percentage of
       average loan balances) by comparing the ratios for the periods referred
       to in the introductory paragraph of this letter.
 
    The results provided satisfactory evidential matter for the purposes of our
audit of the financial statements, referred to in the introductory paragraph of
this letter, taken as a whole.

above and should not be used by for any other purpose.

    At your request, we have applied certain agreed-upon procedures, described
below, agreed to by Dayton Hudson Corporation ("the Company"), Dayton Hudson
Receivables Corporation, as Transferor, and Retailers National Bank, as
Servicer, each of their respective Officers and Directors, and Norwest Bank,
National Association, as Trustee to the Monthly Certificateholders' Statements
("the Statements"), issued pursuant to the Dayton Hudson Credit Card Master
Trust Pooling and Servicing Agreement ("the Pooling and Servicing Agreement"),
dated September 13, 1995, for Series 1995-1 each of the monthly reporting
periods from January 1996 through December 1996. An example of a Statement is
provided as Attachment I. The specific procedures performed on each of the
Statements are cross-referenced to Attachment I for each item or group of items.
Only those items with balances on the Statements were cross-referenced. Our
procedures were applied as indicated with respect to the letters explained
below:
 
    A. Compared amounts to the Dayton Hudson Credit Card Master Trust Prospectus
       Supplement, for Series 1995-1 dated September 13, 1995 ("the Prospectus
       Supplement") and found them to be in agreement.
 
    B.  Compared the dollar and other amounts not derived directly from the
       Prospectus Supplement to amounts in the Company's accounting records to
       the extent such amounts could be so compared directly and found them to
       be in agreement. Examples of those accounting records used are listed
       below.
 
    C.  Compared the dollar and other amounts not derived directly from the
       Prospectus Supplement, or that could not be compared directly to the
       Company's accounting records, to amounts within the Monthly
       Certificateholders' Statement and found them to be in agreement.
 
    D. Proved the arithmetic accuracy of the percentages or amounts based on the
       data in the above mentioned Prospectus Supplement and accounting records.
 
    Accounting records for purposes of this letter include the following reports
or records: Data Summary Sheet; Breakout of Finance Charge Receivable and
Principal Receivable; Finance Charge Receivable Payments as a Percentage of
Total Month Payments; Receivable Aging by Dollar Balance; Month End Accounts
Receivable Aging Summary Reports; Purified Net Write-Off Reports; Monthly Sales
Returns; Credits and Adjustments Reports; Bank Sales Reports; Account Totals by

Geographic Distribution of Accounts and Receivables Reports; Miscellaneous
Payment Instructions Report; and, Monthly Collection Account Earnings. All
Monthly Reports are generated by management of Dayton Hudson Corporation or
Retailers National Bank.
 
    There were no findings noted as a result of our procedures performed.
 
    We were not engaged to, and did not perform an audit, the objective of which
would be the expression of an opinion on the Monthly Certificateholders'
Statements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Had we performed
additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would
have been reported to you.
 
    This report is intended solely for the use of the specified users listed
above and should not be used by those who have not agreed to the procedures and
taken responsibility for the sufficiency of the procedures for their purposes.
