(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 April 2, 1995 and March 27,
1994, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended.
The quarter ended April 2, 1995 consisted of fourteen weeks while
the quarter ended March 27, 1994 consisted of thirteen weeks.
The results of operations for the quarter ended April 2, 1995, are
not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
(2) The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits (SFAS 112) as of the beginning of the prior fiscal year. SFAS 112
requires that the cost of certain postemployment benefits be accrued over
the employee service period, which was a change from the Company's prior
practice of recording such benefits when incurred. The effect of initially
applying SFAS 112, net of a deferred tax benefit of $2,513, was reported as
the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principles, negatively
impacting the Company's first quarter 1994 earnings by $4,282.
(3) As of February 1, 1995, the Company purchased certain products and
other assets from the Larami group of companies. The consideration for this
purchase is currently estimated by the Company to be $88,652. Accounting
for this acquisition using the purchase method, the Company has allocated
the purchase price based on preliminary estimates of fair market value
which included $9,622 of net tangible assets, $67,175 of product rights and
licenses and $11,855 of cost in excess of net assets acquired.
(4) Earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number
of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding
during each period. Common stock equivalents include stock options and
warrants for the period prior to their exercise. Under the treasury stock
method, the unexercised options and warrants were assumed to be exercised
at the beginning of the period or at issuance, if later. The assumed
proceeds were then used to purchase common stock at the average market
price during the period.
For each of the reported periods the difference between primary and
fully diluted earnings per share was not significant.

NET REVENUES
- ------------
Net revenues for the first quarter of 1995 were $526,503, or approximately
8% greater than the $489,133 reported for the same period of 1994.
Increased local currency revenues from most of the Company's international
marketing units, coupled with the favorable effect of the weakened U.S.
dollar was the major factor in this growth. In the domestic market, the
Company's revenues were essentially flat with increases in the Hasbro Games
Group offset by decreases in the Hasbro Toy Group. The first quarter of
1995 included 14 weeks while 1994 included 13.
Gross Profit
- ------------
The gross profit margin, expressed as a percentage of net revenues,
decreased to 55.8% from the 1994 level of 57.4%. A major cause of this
deterioration was the change in mix of products sold, primarily within the
Hasbro Toy Group. During the first quarter of 1995, preschool products
accounted for a larger portion of total revenues and generally this
category returns lower gross margins than do promotional products.
Additionally, the increased cost of plastic resins and paper, major
components of many of the Company's products, was a contributing factor.
EXPENSES
- --------
Royalties, research and development expenses for the quarter increased in
both amount and as a percentage of revenues from 1994 levels. The royalty
component increased marginally in amount, reflecting the increased
revenues, while as a percentage of revenues it decreased, reflecting the
change in mix of products sold. Research and development was $32,564 for
the quarter compared to $28,503 in 1994. This increase cannot be attributed
to any one unit or geographic area, but rather reflects the Company's
expanded efforts, both in new products and technologies and the refreshing
of its existing items.
The current quarter advertising increased approximately $5,700 from the
comparable 1994 level, and, as a percentage of net revenues, increased
marginally to 13.3% from 13.2% a year ago. Both increases can largely be
attributed to the higher portion of the Company's revenues coming from the
international marketing units which generally have higher advertising to
sales ratios than do the domestic groups.
The Company's selling, distribution and administration expenses increased,
both in amount and as a percentage of net revenues, from their respective
1994 amounts. Contributing to the increases were the impact of the weakened
U.S. dollar, the amounts from the Company's new operations, including
Larami, the K'nex joint venture, Scandinavia, and Waddington Games, the
additional week in the 1995 first quarter and the higher proportion of
volume contributed by the international units. Because of the need to
operate stand-alone units in most of the international markets, their
selling, distribution and administration expenses, expressed as a
percentage of revenues, are generally greater than those of the domestic
units.

NONOPERATING (INCOME) EXPENSE
- -----------------------------
Interest expense, while remaining constant as a percentage of net revenues,
increased approximately 7% from the 1994 first quarter amount. While the
Company's operations generated more than $280,000 of cash during the most
recent twelve months, it also has increased borrowing requirements,
resulting from the utilization of approximately $400,000 for acquisitions
and investments, warrant and share repurchases and the reduction of long-
term debt during the same period. In addition, higher interest rates are
being experienced in 1995.
OTHER INFORMATION
- -----------------
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 and inventory levels of retailers and differences in overall
economic conditions. Also, more retailers are using quick response
inventory management practices which results in fewer orders being placed
in advance of shipment and more orders, when placed, for immediate
delivery. As a result, comparisons of unshipped orders on any date in a
given year with those at the same date in a prior 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. The Company's unshipped orders were
approximately $400,000 at April 28, 1995 compared to $350,000 at April 22,
1994. During the past several years the Company has experienced a shift in
its revenue pattern wherein the second half of the year has grown in
significance to its overall business and within that half the fourth
quarter has become more prominent. The Company expects that this trend will
continue.
During both 1994 and 1993, the Company incurred certain restructuring
costs. The 1994 actions, completed in the first quarter of 1995, resulted
in the termination of approximately 600 employees, of which approximately
100 were management positions. The closure of the Company's Netherlands
manufacturing facility, which was the major portion of the 1993 charge,
originally planned for the second quarter of 1994, was delayed until the
first quarter of 1995 due to the time necessary to comply with local
requirements. This resulted in the severance of approximately 200
additional employees. As both of these actions were not completed until the
current quarter, the Company has just begun to experience the financial
benefits from these actions but does not believe that they will be material
in any future period. A majority of the liabilities established for these
restructurings has not yet been satisfied.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Because of the seasonality of the Company's business coupled with certain
customer incentives, mainly in the form of extended payment terms, the
interim cash flow statements are not representative of that which may be
expected for the full year. As a result of these extended payment terms,
the majority of the Company's cash collections occur late in the fourth
quarter and early in the first quarter of the subsequent year. While a
large portion of these receivables are of a quality which would allow their
sale, alleviating the need for much of its interim financing, the Company
believes it to be more cost effective to use its available funds and short-
term borrowings to finance them. As a result, cash flow from operations
during the second and third quarters of each year is usually negative while
late in the fourth quarter and through the first quarter of the subsequent
year, as receivables are collected, cash flow from operations becomes
positive and is used to repay a significant portion of the short-term
borrowings.
As a result, management believes that on an interim basis, rather than
discussing its cash flows, a better understanding of its liquidity and
capital resources can be obtained through a discussion of the various
balance sheet categories. 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 and the extended payment terms
offered, 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 and cash equivalents were approximately 25% below their 1994 level.
The Company attempts to keep its cash at the lowest level possible whenever
it has short-term borrowings. At times, however, the cash available and the
borrowing requirement may be in different countries and currencies which
may make it impractical to substitute one for the other. Receivables were
approximately $25,000 greater than at the same time in 1994. More than half
of the increase results from the impact of changed foreign currency
translation rates while the remainder reflects the increased revenue volume
in the first quarter of 1995. Inventories marginally increased from their
1994 level but absent the effect of changed translation rates would have
been below those of a year ago. Prepaid expenses increased from their 1994
amounts reflecting the Company's increased volume and business activities.
Other assets, as a group, increased approximately $200,000 from their level
a year ago. This increase reflects the Company's investments and
acquisitions during the most recent twelve months, partially offset by the
disposition of certain investments, as described in Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (Management's Review) for the year
ended December 25, 1994, and twelve additional months of amortization
expense.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, Continued
(Thousands of dollars)
Short-term borrowings, at $162,736 were approximately $110,000 greater than
last year. This increase is the net effect of the cash required for the
Company's recent acquisitions, the early redemption of $50,000 of its long-
term debt, the election to pay cash rather than issuing additional shares
to exercising holders of its warrants, which expired on July 12, 1994, the
repurchase of shares of the Company's common stock, the net cash
requirements of the change in other assets noted above, all partially
offset by funds generated from operations within the most recent twelve
months. Other current liabilities increased approximately 8% as a result of
the Company's increased activities and the impact of changed foreign
currency translation rates. At April 2, 1995, the Company had committed
unsecured lines of credit totaling approximately $450,000 available to it.
It also had available uncommitted lines approximating $950,000. The Company
believes that these amounts are adequate for its needs. Of these available
lines, approximately $175,000 was in use at April 2, 1995.
RECENT INFORMATION
- ------------------
As discussed in Management's Review for the year ended December 25, 1994,
the Company and CBS Inc. (CBS) had negotiated a resolution to the
implementation of the judgment in favor of the Company arising from a legal
action relating to the environmental remediation of the Company's former
manufacturing facility in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. During the quarter, the
Company received the agreed payment from CBS for remediation and other
costs incurred, the termination of the consent order from the Pennsylvania
Department of Environmental Resources and on April 17, 1995 sold the site
to CBS for the agreed payment.
