(1)   In the opinion of management and subject to year-end audit, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 30,June 29, 2003 and March 31,June 30, 2002, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended in accordance with U.S. GAAP.United States generally accepted accounting principles.

The quartersquarterly and year to date periods ended March 30,June 29, 2003 and March 31,June 30, 2002 are thirteen week periods.13-week and 26-week periods, respectively.

The results of operations for the quartersix months ended March 30,June 29, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated balance sheet and statement of operationsCompany filed audited financial statements for the periodyear ended March 31,December 29, 2002 have been restated to reflectin its annual report on Form 10-K, which includes all such information and disclosures, and accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 at the beginning of 2002. (See note 4.)financial information included herein.

Hasbro uses the intrinsic-value method of accounting for stock options granted to employees. As required by the Company's existing stock plans, stock options are granted at, or above, the fair market value of the Company's stock, and, accordingly, no compensation expense is recognized for these grants in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company records compensation expense related to other stock-based awards, such as restricted stock grants, over the period the award vests, typically three years. Had compensation expense been recorded under the fair value method as set forth in the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 for stock options awarded, the impact on the Company's net earnings (loss) and net earnings (loss) per share for the fiscal quarters and six months ended March 30,June 29, 2003 and March 31,June 30, 2002 would have been:

Reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive earnings to earnings of $1,398$1,509 and $(251)$2,907 for the quartersquarter and six months ended March 30,June 29, 2003, and March 31, 2002, respectively, represent net losses (gains) on cash flow hedging derivatives for which the related transaction has impacted earnings and was reflected in cost of sales. TheseThe losses (gains) were net of losses (gains) on cash flow hedgeshedging derivatives for the six months ended June 29, 2003 are net of gains on cash flows reclassified to earnings as the result of hedge ineffectiveness of $(1) and $4$1. Reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive earnings to earnings for the quartersquarter ended MarchJune 30, 20032002 are comprised primarily of an impairment charge relating to an other than temporary decrease in the value of the Company's available-for-sale securities. The gains on cash flow hedging derivatives for the quarter and March 31,six months ended June 30, 2002 respectively.are net of losses on cash flows reclassified to earnings as the result of hedge ineffectiveness of $14 and $18 for the respective periods. The Company expects the remainingremai ning deferred losses on derivative hedging instruments at March 30,June 29, 2003 of $5,944$9,146 in accumulated other comprehensive earnings to be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months.

(4)Effective at the beginning of fiscal 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" (SFAS 142). As a result of adopting this statement, the Company's goodwill and certain intangible assets are no longer amortized. The Company also evaluated its existing intangible assets and goodwill acquired in prior purchase business combinations and reassessed the useful lives and residual values of those intangible assets other than goodwill. As a result of this assessment, the lives of product rights totaling $75,700 obtained in the Company's acquisition of Milton Bradley in 1984 and Tonka in 1991 were adjusted to an indefinite life and tested for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142. As a result, the accumulated amortization on these assets is excluded from the balance sheet disclosure of accumulated amortization of other intangible assets. No other reclassifications or adjustments of remaining useful livesl ives were made as a result of this assessment.

SFAS 142 required the Company, within six months of the date of adoption, to perform an assessment of whether there was an indication that goodwill was impaired as of the date of adoption. This initial assessment was completed during the second quarter of 2002. As part of this assessment, the Company allocated goodwill and other Corporate assets and liabilities to its various reporting units. It then compared the carrying values of its reporting units to the fair values of those reporting units. The fair values of the reporting units were calculated using an income approach, which looks to the present value of expected future cash flows. These values were compared in total with the fair value of the business based on market capitalization at the date of testing. Based on the result of this assessment, the Company recorded a one-time transitional charge of $245,732, net of tax, resulting from the impairment of goodwill relating to the U.S. Toys reporting unit primarily as the result of the change in goodwi ll impairment criteria from an undiscounted to a discounted cash flow method. This transitional charge was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle and, in accordance with the statement, recorded retroactively to the first quarter. The first quarter of 2002 has beenwas restated to reflect this application. The Company performs its annual impairment test in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. The impairment test for the fourth quarter of 2002 indicated that there was no further impairment.

A portion of the Company's goodwill and other intangible assets reside in the Corporate segment of the business. For purposes of SFAS 142 testing, in 2002, these assets were allocated to the reporting units within the Company's operating segments. Including this allocation for 2002, the changes in carrying amount of goodwill, by operating segment for the threesix months ended March 30,June 29, 2003 and March 31,June 30, 2002 are as follows:

Segment performance is measured at the operating profit level. Included in Corporate and eliminations are general corporate expenses, the elimination of intersegment transactions and certain assets benefiting more than one segment. Intersegment sales and transfers are reflected in management reports at amounts approximating cost. Certain shared costs are allocated to segments based upon foreign exchange rates fixed at the beginning of the year, with adjustment to actual foreign exchange rates included in Corporate and eliminations.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2002, except for the Company's adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities", as of December 30, 2002, which did not have an effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations andor financial position.

Results shown for the quarter and six months are not necessarily representative of those which may be expected for the full year 2003 nor were those of the comparable 2002 first quarterperiods representative of those actually experienced for the full year 2002. Similarly, such results are not necessarily those which would be achieved were each segment an unaffiliated business enterprise.

(a) The Operations segment derives substantially all of its revenues and operating results from intersegment activities.

(b) Certain intangible assets which benefit operating segments are reflected as Corporate assets for segment reporting purposes. For application of SFAS 142, these amounts have been allocated to the reporting unit which benefits from their use. Therefore, a portion of the 2002 impairment of $296,223 of goodwill related to the U.S. Toys reporting unit as a result of the adoption of SFAS 142 in the first quarter of 2002 is reflected in the Corporate and eliminations amount above.

In May of 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Liabilities and Equity", (SFAS 150) which establishes standards for issuers' classification as liabilities in the statement of financial position of certain financial instruments that have characteristics of both liabilities and equity. At June 29, 2003, the Company has certain warrants recorded as equity, which will be required under SFAS 150 to be recorded as a liability and subsequently adjusted to fair value through earnings.

SFAS150 is effective for the Company as of June 30, 2003, the first day of the third quarter of fiscal 2003. On that date, the Company will reclassify the value of these warrants, previously recorded in equity of approximately $108 million, to current liabilities and record a charge for the cumulative effect of accounting change of approximately $17 million to adjust the warrants to their fair value as of that date.

At June 29, 2003, the above warrants contained an option through January 2008 for the holder to sell all of these warrants to Hasbro for a price to be paid at the Company's election of either $100 million in cash, or $110 million in the Company's common stock, such stock being valued at the time of the exercise of the option. Had this option been exercised at June 29, 2003 and the Company had elected to settle this option in the Company's stock, the Company would have been required to issue 6,449 shares.

The year to an operating loss of $(6,345) in 2002. Most of the Company's revenues are deriveddate revenue decline from its three principal segments, U.S. Toys, Games and International.

U.S. TOYS

U.S. Toys net revenues decreased 24% to $153,444 for the quarter ended March 30, 2003 from $200,860 for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. The decrease2002 was primarily due to decreasedthe expected decrease in shipments from the prior year of STAR WARS products, as well as decreaseddecreases in shipments of product related to BOB THE BUILDER.BUILDER and ZOIDS related products. These decreases were partially offset by increased revenues from BEYBLADE and TRANSFORMERSFURREAL FRIENDS products, as well as 2003 shipments of FURREAL FRIENDS, which was introduced late in 2002. To a lesser extent,increased revenues were also positively impacted by increased shipments offrom core products, such as the PLAYSKOOL and PLAY-DOH products. TRANSFORMERS lines.

U.S. Toys operating profit decreased to $5,326$12,946 for the quarter ended March 30,June 29, 2003 from an operating profit of $26,240$14,556 for the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2002. For the six months ended June 29, 2003, operating profit decreased to $18,272 from $40,796 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This decrease in operating profit for both periods was primarily due to decreased gross margin resulting from lower shipments of STAR WARS products, which have a higher gross margin, partially offset by lower royalty and amortization expense. Product rights associated with the STAR WARS prop ertyproperty are being amortized in proportion to expected remaining revenues. In periods with higher sales of STAR WARS products, resulting amortization expense will be higher. During the remainder of 2003, the Company expects lower sales of STAR WARS related products compared to 2002, due to the theatrical, DVD and video release of STAR WARS: EPISODE II: ATTACK OF THE CLONES in 2002 and, therefore, lower royalty and amortization expense in 2003. Sales of product relatedre lated to entertainment-based properties, such as STAR WARS, typically carry a higher gross margin. These products also typically carry a higher royalty rate and the resulting operating profit is not as high as it is for revenues derived from the sale of owned brands.

The increase in operating profit for the six months ended June 29, 2003 was primarily due to increased gross margin as the result of the increase in sales as well as the mix of products sold in 2003. Operating profit for both the quarter and the six months ended June 29, 2003 also benefited from decreased fixed costs as the result of cost reduction initiatives of the Company.

The increase in local currency revenue for the quarter was primarily a result of increasedstrong sales of BEYBLADE and FURREAL FRIENDS products, which were introduced in most markets in the fourth quarter of 2002. Revenues were also positively impacted by increased core brand sales of MAGIC: THE GATHERING and TRANSFORMERS products. These increases were parti ally offset by lower revenues from STAR WARS products, as well as licensed trading card games, such as POKEMON and HARRY POTTER. The increase for the six month period was driven by revenues from BEYBLADE products, increased sales of certain core products, such as PLAY-DOH, TRANSFORMERS and MAGIC: THE GATHERING products, as well as sales of FURREAL FRIENDS products. Increased revenues from the core brands PLAYSKOOL and PLAYSKOOL. ThesePLAYDOH also contributed to the six month change.

As noted above, the STAR WARS property rights are amortized in proportion to expected remaining sales.

For the six month periods, other expense was $82 in 2003 compared to $27,832 in 2002. During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Company incurred a charge of $38,633 related to the decline in the fair value of the common stock of Infogrames Entertainment SA, held by the Company as an available-for-sale investment.

INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense as a percentage of pretax earnings in both the firstsecond quarter and six months of 2003 was 27%27.0%, compared to an income tax benefit of 26%as a percentage of pretax loss of 26.0% in the first quarter and six months of 2002. The income tax rate for the full year 2002 was 27.9%. Absent the effect of the penalty assessed by the Office of Fair Trading in the United Kingdom in 2002, the 2002 full year tax rate would have been 26%. The increase in rate is primarily due to increased operating profit in jurisdictions with higher tax rates. The income tax rate for the full year 2002 was 27.9%, due to the impact of a fourth quarter non-deductible penalty assessed by the United Kingdom Office of Fair Trading in connection with Hasbro U.K.'s interaction with certain of its distributors.

CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF ACCOUNTING CHANGE

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------
On December 31, 2001, the first day of fiscal 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and otherOther Intangible Assets" (SFAS 142). SFAS 142 required the Company, within six months of the date of adoption, to perform an assessment of whether there was an indication that goodwill was impaired as of the date of adoption. This initial assessment was completed during the second quarter of 2002. As part of this assessment, the Company allocated goodwill and other corporate assets and liabilities to its various reporting units. It then compared the carrying values of its reporting units to the fair values of those reporting units. The fair values of the reporting units were calculated using an income approach, which looks to the present value of expected future cash flows. These values were compared in total with the fair value of the business based on market capitalization at the date of testing. Based on the result of this assessment, the Company recorded a one-tim e transitionalone-time t ransitional charge of $245,732, net of tax, resulting from the impairment of goodwill relating to the U.S. Toys reporting unit primarily as the result of the change in goodwill impairment criteria from an undiscounted to a discounted cash flow method. This transitional charge was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle and, in accordance with the statement, recorded retroactively to the first quarter.

OTHER INFORMATION


- ---------------------------------


Typically, due to the seasonal nature of its business, the Company expects the second half of the year, and within that half, the fourth quarter, to be more significant to its overall business for the full year. The Company expects that this trend will generally continue, although the first half of 2003 may represent a smaller proportion of full year revenues than the first half of 2002, principally because of the May 2002 theatrical release of STAR WARS: EPISODE II: ATTACK OF THE CLONES. The concentration of sales in the second half of the year and, specifically, the fourth quarter increases the risk of (a) underproduction of popular items, (b) overproduction of less popular items and (c) failure to achieve tight and compressed shipping schedules. The business of the Company is characterized by customer order patterns which vary from year to year largely because of differences in the degree of consumer acceptance of a product line, product availability, marketing strategies, inventory levels, policies of retailers a ndre tailers and differences in overall economic conditions. The trend of retailers over the past few years has been to purchase a greater percentage of product within or close to the fourth quarter holiday consumer selling season, which includes Christmas. Quick response inventory management practices now being used result in more orders being placed for immediate delivery and fewer orders being placed well in advance of shipment.

Consequently, unshipped orders on any date in a given year are not necessarily indicative of sales for the entire year. In addition, it is a general industry practice that orders are subject to amendment or cancellation by customers prior to shipment. At March 30,June 29, 2003 and March 31,June 30, 2002, the Company's unshipped orders were approximately $197,000$548,200 and $209,000,$459,800, respectively.

In January 2003, the Company amended its license with Lucas Licensing Ltd. ("Lucas") for the manufacture and distribution of STAR WARS toys and games. Under the amended agreement the term was extended by ten years and is expected to run through 2018. In addition, the minimum guaranteed royalties due to Lucas were reduced by $85,000. In a separate agreement, the warrants previously granted to Lucas were also amended. Under this warrant amendment, the term of each of the warrants issued to Lucas was extended by ten years. The warrant amendment agreement provides the Company with an option through October 2016 to purchase all of these warrants from Lucas for a price to be paid at the Company's election of either $200,000 in cash or $220,000 in the Company's common stock, such stock being valued at the time of the exercise of the option. Also, the warrant amendment agreement provides Lucas with an option through January 2008 to sell all of these warrants to the Company for a price to be paid at the Company's election of either $100,000 in cash or $110,000 in the Company's common stock, such stock being valued at the time of the exercise of the option. Should either the put or callof these options be required to be settled, the Company believes that it will have adequate funds available to settle thisthem in cash if necessary. The increase in value of the warrants as a result of the amendment was approximately $67,900, which was recorded in the first quarter of 2003 as an intangible asset, and will be amortized over the remaining life of the licensing contract.

During 2001,As described in note 6 to the financial statements, in May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity" (SFAS 150), which will be effective for the Company received two inquirieson June 30, 2003, the first day of the fiscal third quarter. Under the requirements of SFAS 150, the above warrant agreement with Lucas will be required to be classified as a liability and subsequently adjusted to fair value through earnings. On the date of adoption, the Company will reclassify approximately $108,000 from equity, where the Officewarrants had previously been recorded, to current liabilities. A cumulative effect of Fair Tradingaccounting change of approximately $17,000 will be recorded to adjust the amount of this liability to its fair value on that date. Subsequent to this date, the Company will be required to adjust this liability to its fair value through earnings. If the price of the Company's stock increases, the value of the warrants will increase and the Company will recognize a charge to earnings. If the price of the Company's stock decreases, the value of the warrants will decrease and the Company will recognize income. Based on a hypothetical increase in the United Kingdom (the "OFT") into alleged anti-competitive pricing practices by the Company's United Kingdom ("U.K.") subsidiary, Hasbro U.K. Ltd. ("Hasbro U.K."). In Novemberstock price to $20.00 per share from its price at June 29, 2003 of 2002, the OFT issued$17.50 a decision in the first of these inquiries (the "wholesaler case") related to Hasbro U.K.'s interactions with certain of its wholesale distributors, finding that Hasbro U.K. had entered into agreements with certain distributors to fix prices in violation of U.K. competition laws. The OFT assessed a fine in that case of approximately GBP 4,950 or approximately $7,900 at the then current exchange rates. The Company filed an appeal of this decision in January 2003 to the U.K. Competition Commission Appeals Tribunal (the "CCAT"). In February of 2003, the OFT issued a decision in the second inquiry regarding Hasbro U.K.'s trading arrangement with certain of its direct retail accounts, finding that Hasbro U.K. had entered into agre ements with certain direct retailers to fix prices in violation of U.K. competition laws. The OFT assessed a fine in this case but, due to the Company's cooperation with the OFT's investigation, the OFT's decision stated thatshare, the Company would not be requiredrecognize a charge to pay anyearnings of that fine.

warrants to their fair value.

Hasbro uses the intrinsic-value method of accounting for stock options granted to employees. As required by the Company's existing stock plans, stock options are granted at, or above, the fair market value of the Company's stock, and, accordingly, no compensation expense is recognized for these grants in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company records compensation expense related to other stock-based awards, such as restricted stock grants, over the period the award vests, typically three years. In April 2003, FASB announced that it would mandate the fair value method of accounting for all stock-based awards. Although no formal statement has been issued at this time, this change in accounting is expected tocould be effective for fiscal 2004. Until a formal statement is issued, the Company cannot estimate the effect that this change in accounting would have on its Consolidated Statements of Operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- --------------------------------------------------------


Hasbro has historically generated a significant amount of cash from normal operations. The Company funds its operations and liquidity needs primarily through cash flows from operations, as well as utilizing borrowings under the Company's secured and unsecured credit facilities when needed. The seasonality of the Company's business results in the interim cash flow statements not being representative of that which may be expected for the full year. Historically, the majority of the Company's cash collections occur late in the fourth quarter and early in the first quarter of the subsequent year. As receivables are collected, the proceeds are used to repay a significant portion of outstanding short-term debt. During 2003, the Company expects to continue to fund its working capital needs primarily through operations and, when needed, through its revolving credit facility and believes that the funds available to it are adequate to meet its needs. However, unforeseen circumstances, such as severe softness in or a collapse of the retail environment may result in a significant decline in revenues and operating results of the Company, thereby causingwhich could result in the Company to bebeing in non-compliance with its debt covenants. Non-compliance with its debt covenants could result in the Company being unable to utilize borrowings under its revolving credit facility, a circumstance most likely to occur when operating shortfalls would most require supplementary borrowings.

Because of this seasonality in cash flow, management believes that on an interim basis, rather than discussing only its cash flows, a better understanding of its liquidity and capital resources can be obtained through a discussion of the various balance sheet categories as well. Also, as several of the major categories, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories and short-term borrowings, fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, again due to the seasonality of its business, management believes that a comparison to the comparable period in the prior year is generally more meaningful than a comparison to the prior year-end.

Cash flows providedutilized by operating activities were $36,507 and $137,880$88,298 for the first quarters of 2003 and 2002, respectively. This decrease was partially due to income tax refunds, net of tax payments, of $45,906 received in the first quarter of 2002 as a result of tax operating losses incurred in 2001. In the first quarter of 2003, the Company made net income tax payments of $7,650. Receivables were $286,576 at March 30,six months ended June 29, 2003 compared to $287,379$76,903 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Receivables were $485,108 at March 31,June 29, 2003 compared to $479,443 at June 30, 2002. The increase in receivables is due to higher second quarter 2003 revenues, as well as the impact of foreign exchange translation. Prepaid expenses decreased to $118,155$123,313 at March 30,June 29, 2003 from $217,642$191,841 at March 31,June 30, 2002. ThisThe decrease is primarily due to decreased advanced royalties as the result of royalties earned in 2002 relating to STAR WARS products because of the theatrical, DVD, and video releases of STAR WARS: EPISODE II: ATTACK OF THE CLONES. Generally, when the Company enters into a licensing agreement for entertainment-based properties, an advance royalty payment is required at the inception of the agreement. This payment is then amortized toin the Consolidated St atementStatement of Operations as the related sales are made. In addition to the decrease related to STAR WARS products,pr oducts, the decrease in advance royalties is also due to the Company's business strategy of focusing on its owned core brands and reducing its reliance on licensed products. Inventories decreased to $222,296$273,803 at March 30,June 29, 2003 from $232,170$279,873 at March 31, 2002.June 30, 2002, notwithstanding higher foreign exchange rates in 2003.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased to $532,407$577,775 at MarchJune 29, 2003 from $553,208 at June 30, 2002. This increase is due to higher royalties accrued at June 29, 2003, compared to $513,368 at March 31, 2002. Accruedprimarily as the result of increased sales of licensed products for which no advances have been paid. In addition, accrued income taxes increased as the result of the increase in earnings in 2003 and accrued advertising increased as the result of the increased expenditures on advertising. These increases were partly offset by decreased accruals relating to contractual lease commitments under the 2000 restructuring plan as the result of payments made during 2002.2003.

Collectively, property, plant and equipment and other assets increased $65,901decreased $39,663 from the comparable period in the prior year. The increasedecrease is primarily due to depreciation and amortization, net of additions which include an increase in property rights as a result ofresulting from the amendment of warrants previously issued in connection with the STAR WARS licensing rights. In January 2003, these warrants were amended to extend the term by ten years. In addition, put and call options were added to the warrants. The resulting increase in the value of the warrants of approximately $67,900 was recorded as an addition to property rights. In May of 2002, the Company paid a royalty advance of $120,000 relating to the STAR WARS product rights. Due to the timing of future expected royalties covered by this payment, this advance was recorded in other assets. These increases were partially offset by amortization of intangibles and depreciation of property, plant and equipment.assets as a long-term advance.

The decrease in net borrowings is also the result of higher cash balances as the result of higher cash provided by operations for the 12 months ended June 29, 2003. It is the Company's intent to continue to assess the desirability of using available cash from operations to reduce its outstanding long-term debt, as market conditions and the Company's committed secured revolving credit agreement allow.

The agreement contains restrictive covenants setting forth minimum cash flow and coverage requirements, and a number of other limitations, including restrictions with respect to capital expenditures, investments, acquisitions, debt and share repurchases and dividend payments. The Company was in compliance with all restrictive covenants at March 30,June 29, 2003. In addition to this available committed line, the Company also has available uncommitted lines approximating $56,500.$41,200. At March 30,June 29, 2003, approximately $51,000$70,500 of these committed and uncommitted lines was in use. The Company believes that funds provided by operations and amounts available for borrowing from time to time under these lines of credit are adequate to m eetmee t its needs in 2003.

The Company has letters of credit of approximately $32,600$53,600 and purchase commitments of $28,942$221,742 outstanding at March 30,June 29, 2003. Other contractual obligations and commercial commitments as detailed in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2002 did not materially change outside of payments made in the normal course of business and the repayment of debt mentioned above in the first quarter of 2003.

The Company has $250,000 senior convertible debentures due 2021 which are included in long-term debt. The holders of these debentures may put the notes back to the Company in December 2005, December 2011 and December 2016 at 100% of the principal amount and accrued interest on the notes. At that time, the purchase price may be paid in cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of the two, at our discretion. Our current intent is to settle in cash any puts exercised in the future.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, management is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based on the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating the Company's reported financial results are sales allowances, inventory valuation, recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, recoverability of royalty advances and commitments and pensions.

Sales allowances for customer promotions, discounts and returns are recorded as a reduction of revenue when the related revenue is recognized. Revenue from product sales is recognized upon passing of title to the customer, at the time of shipment. Revenue from product sales, less related sales allowances, is added to royalty revenue and reflected as net revenues in the consolidated statements of operationsoperations. The Company routinely commits to promotional sales allowance programs with customers. These allowances primarily relate to fixed programs, which the customer earns based on purchases of Company products during the year. Discounts are recorded as a reduction of related revenue at the time of sale. While many of the allowances are based on fixed amounts, certain of the allowances, such as the returns allowance, are based on market data, historical trends and information from customers and are therefore subject to estimation.

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. Based upon a consideration of quantities on hand, actual and projected sales volume, anticipated product selling price and product lines planned to be discontinued, slow-moving and obsolete inventory is written down to its net realizable value. Failure to accurately predict and respond to consumer demand could result in the Company underproducing popular items or overproducing less popular items. Management estimates are monitored on a quarterly basis and a further adjustment to reduce inventory to its net realizable value is recorded, as an increase to cost of sales, when deemed necessary under the lower of cost or market standard.

On December 31, 2001, the first day of fiscal 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which eliminates the amortization of goodwill, as well as amortization of intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life. Under this Statement, goodwill and intangible assets are allocated to applicable reporting units. Goodwill and other intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are tested for impairment annually. Goodwill is tested using a two step process that begins with an estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit using an income approach, which looks to the present value of expected future cash flows.

HASBRO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

(Thousands of Dollars Except Per Share Data)


The first step is a screen for potential impairment while the second step measures the amount of impairment if there is an indication from the first step that one exists. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment by comparing their carrying value to their estimated fair value also calculated using the income approach. In connection w ithwith the adoption of SFAS 142, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $245,732, net of tax, primarily as the result of the change in goodwill impairment criteria from an undiscounted to a discounted cash flow method. The Company's annual impairment test was performed in the fourth quarter of 2002 and no impairment was indicated. At March 30,June 29, 2003, the Company has goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives of $536,626$537,705 recorded on the balance sheet.

Intangible assets, other than those with indefinite lives, are reviewed for indications of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these intangible assets is measured by a comparison of the assets' carrying value to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets were considered to be impaired, the impairment would be measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value based on estimated future discounted cash flows. The estimation of future cash flows requires significant judgments and estimates with respect to future revenues related to the respective asset and the future cash outlays related to those revenues. Actual revenues and related cash flows or changes in anticipated revenues and related cash flows could result in a change in this assessment and result in an impairment charge. The estimation of discounted cash flows also requir es the selection of an appropriate discount rate. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted cash flows and could increase or decrease the related impairment charge. Intangible assets covered under this policy were $691,843$677,763 at March 30,June 29, 2003.

The recoverability of royalty advances and contractual obligations with respect to minimum guaranteed royalties is assessed by comparing the remaining minimum guaranty to the estimated future sales forecasts and related cash flow projections to be derived from the related product. If sales forecasts and related cash flows from the particular product do not support the recoverability of the remaining minimum guaranty or, if the Company decides to discontinue a product line with royalty advances or commitments, a charge to royalty expense to write-off the remaining minimum guaranty is required. The preparation of revenue forecasts and related cash flows for these products requires judgments and estimates. Actual revenues and related cash flows or changes in the assessment of anticipated revenues and cash flows related to these products could result in a change to the assessment of recoverability of remaining minimum guaranteed royalties. At March 30,June 29, 2003, the Company had $214,500approximately $217,500 of prepaid royalties, $ 54,500approximately $65,600 of which are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $160,000approximately $151,900 which are included in other assets.

The Company, except for certain International subsidiaries, has pension plans covering substantially all of its full-time employees. Pension expense is based on actuarial computations of current and future benefits using estimates for expected return on assets, expected salary increases, and applicable discount rates. These estimates are established for the upcoming year at the Company's measurement date of September 30. The Company estimates expected return on assets using a weighted average rate based on historical market data for the investment classes of assets held by the plan, the allocation of plan assets among those investment classes, and the current economic environment.

Based on this information and, in light of recent decreases in historical average market returns, the Company reduced its expected long-term return on plan assets in September 2002 to 8.75% versus 9.00% used in 2001. A decrease in the estimate used for expected return on plan assets would increase pension expense while an increa seincrease in this estimate would decrease pension expense. Expected salary increases are estimated using a combination of historical salary increases with expected salary increases in the Company's long-term business forecasts. Based on this analysis, in 2002, the Company reduced expected long-term salary increases to 4.0% from 4.5% used in 2001. Increases in estimated salary increases would increase pension expense while decreases would decrease pension expense. Discount rates are selected based upon rates of return on high quality fixed income investments currently available and expected to be available during the period to maturity of the pension benefits. The CompanyCo mpany considers Moody's long-term Aa Corporate Bond yield at the measurement date as an appropriate guide in setting this rate. At September 30, 2002, the Company's measurement date for its pension assets and liabilities, the Moody's long-term Corporate Bond yield was 6.51%, and the Company selected a discount rate of 6.50% versus 7.25% used in 2001. A d ecreasedecrease in the discount rate would result in greater pension expense while an increase in the discount rate would decrease pension expense. Primarily as a result of the changes in these assumptions, the Company expects its full year pension expense in 2003 to increase by $4,500 over 2002. The Company does not expect these changes in its assumptions to impact its funding requirements in 2003. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87, "Employers Accounting for Pensions", actual results that differ from the actuarial assumptions are accumulated and, if in excess of a certain corridor, amortized over future periods and, therefore generallygene rally affect recognized expense and the recorded obligation in future periods. Assets in the plan are valued on the basis of their fair market value on the measurement date.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------
The Company is exposed to market risks attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates primarily as a result of sourcing products in U.S. dollars, Hong Kong dollars and Euros while marketing those products in more than twenty-five currencies. Results of operations may be affected primarily by changes in the value of the U.S. dollar, Hong Kong dollar, Euro, British pound, Canadian dollar and Mexican peso and, to a lesser extent, other currencies, including those in Latin American countries.

To manage this exposure, the Company has hedged a portion of its estimated upcoming fiscal year foreign currency transactions using forward foreign exchange contracts and, to a lesser extent, zero cost option collars. From time to time, the Company may also hedge foreign currency exposure using purchased foreign currency options. The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk with respect to its net cash and cash equivalents or short-term borrowing positions in other than the U.S. dollar. The C ompanyCompany believes, however, that the on-going risk on the net exposure should not be material to its financial condition. In addition, the Company's revenues and costs have been and will likely continue to be affected by changes in foreign currency rates. The Company does not speculate in, and, other than set forth above, the Company does not hedge foreign currencies. The Company reflects all derivatives at their fair value as an asset or liability on the balance sheet.

In 2002, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements in order to adjust the amount of total debt that is subject to fixed interest rates. At March 30,June 29, 2003, these swaps had notional amounts of $200,000. These agreements are designated and effective as hedges of the change in the fair value of the associated debt. Changes in fair value of these contracts are wholly offset in earnings by changes in the fair value of long-term debt. At March 30,June 29, 2003, these contracts had a fair value of $15,529,$19,042, which is recorded in other assets.assets, with a balancing entry to long-term debt.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

During 2001, the Company received two inquiries from the Office of Fair Trading in the United Kingdom (the "OFT") into alleged anti-competitive pricing practices by the Company's United Kingdom ("U.K.") subsidiary, Hasbro U.K. Ltd. ("Hasbro U.K."). In November of 2002, the OFT issued a decision in the first of these inquiries (the "wholesaler case") related to Hasbro U.K.'s interactions with certain of its wholesale distributors, finding that Hasbro U.K. had entered into agreements with certain distributors to fix prices in violation of U.K. competition laws. The OFT assessed a fine in that case of approximately GBP 4,950,000 or approximately $7,900,000 at the then current exchange rates. The Company filed an appeal of this decision in January 2003 to the U.K. Competition Commission Appeals Tribunal (the "CCAT"). In February of 2003, the OFT issued a decision in the second inquiry regarding Hasbro U.K.'s trading arrangement with certain of its direct retail accounts, finding that Hasbro U.K. had entered into agreements with certain direct retailers to fix prices in violation of U.K. competition laws. The OFT assessed a fine in this case but, due to the Company's cooperation with the OFT's investigation, the OFT's decision stated that the Company would not be required to pay any of that fine.None.

In March 2003, the Company withdrew its appeal of the wholesaler case with the CCAT and paid the fine of GBP 4,950,000, which had been accrued at December 29, 2002.
