             INTERNATIONAL MULTIFOODS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
             Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
                                  (unaudited)

(1) In the Company's opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated 
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of 
only normal recurring adjustments, except as noted elsewhere in the 
notes to the consolidated condensed financial statements) necessary to 
present fairly its financial position as of May 31, 1998, and the 
results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended May 
31, 1998 and 1997.  These statements are condensed and, therefore, do 
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally 
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  The 
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated 
financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's Annual 
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 1998.  The results 
of operations for the three months ended May 31, 1998, are not 
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  

(2) Comprehensive income - In June 1997, the Financial Accounting 
Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS 130).  The 
Company adopted SFAS 130 beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.  
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in the equity of a 
business from all nonowner transactions and events.  The Company's 
comprehensive income is as follows (in thousands):

                                                    Three Months Ended

=======================================================================

(3) Cost of sales - To more closely match costs with related revenues, 
the Company classifies the inflation element inherent in interest rates 
on Venezuelan local currency borrowings and the foreign exchange gains 
and losses, which occur on such borrowings, as a component of cost of 
sales.  Accordingly, cost of sales increased $0.6 million and $0.5 
million for the three months ended May 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

(4) Unusual items - The Company recognized unusual items that resulted 
in pre-tax charges of $37.5 million ($27.1 million after-tax or $1.45 
per share) and were comprised of the following.

(in millions)                                      Segment

   Total                      $37.5
===================================

Management adopted a plan to consolidate its vending and foodservice 
operations into a single business.  The plan involves reducing the 
number of distribution centers by nine, reducing the size of the work 
force by approximately 300 people and reducing the vehicle fleet size 
by up to 10 percent.  The charge covers losses on lease commitments, 
employee termination benefits, costs incurred for outside consultants, 
and the write-down of leasehold improvements.  The Company believes 
that the actions associated with the plan will be completed over the 
next 24 months. 

The Company recognized a charge of $7.2 million for the write-down of 
assets and the cost of work-force reductions associated with its 
Canadian frozen bakery business.  The charge resulted from the 
Company's inability to sell the business at a price acceptable to the 
Company and from the loss of a major customer in May 1998.  In 
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, 
the Company evaluated the carrying value of its long-lived assets as a 
result of these recent events and recognized a $5.8 million charge for 
asset impairment.  In addition, the Company recognized a charge of $1.4 
million primarily for employee termination benefits.

The Company recognized a charge of $8.5 million associated with its 
Venezuela Foods business.  The charge included a $5.3 million asset 
write-down, which resulted from the Company's decision in May 1998 to 
close a durum mill.  In accordance with Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 121, the Company evaluated the recoverability 
of the carrying value of its durum mill as a result of its decision to 
close and sell the facility.  The Company estimated the fair value of 
the facility based on information received from prospective buyers.  In 
addition, unusual charges included $3.2 million primarily for costs 
associated with employee severance liabilities which resulted from a 
new Venezuelan law and costs associated with the departure of the 
business segment's former president.

The Company recognized an unusual charge of $10.3 million for the 
write-off of receivables from a major customer of its former food 
exporting business.  The Company had negotiated an exit agreement with 
this customer in fiscal 1998, which provided for payments to the 
Company for amounts due under notes and accounts receivable.  The 
agreement had been restructured on several occasions because of the 
customer's financial difficulties.  As a result of uncertainties with 
respect to the customer's ability to meet its obligations, the Company 
recognized a $5 million charge in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998.  
In June 1998, the Company was notified by the customer that it would 
not meet its obligations under the restructured exit agreement.  The 
Company believes the customer's financial problems were caused by its 
difficulty in moving product into the Russian marketplace and were 
complicated by recent economic difficulties in Russia.  Accordingly, 
the Company believes that remaining amounts due from the customer are

(9) Contingencies - In fiscal 1998, the Company was notified that 
approximately $6 million in Company-owned inventory was stolen from 
a ship in the port of St. Petersburg, Russia.  The ship had been 
chartered by the major customer of the Company's former food exporting 
business.  The Company believes, based on the facts known to date, that 
the loss is covered by insurance.  If the loss from the theft of 
product is not covered by insurance, the Company would likely recognize 
a material charge to its results of operations.

Results of Operations:
- ----------------------

For the three months ended May 31, 1998, compared with 
- -------------------------------------------------------
the corresponding prior period
- ------------------------------

Overview

The Company reported a consolidated first quarter net loss of $24.3 
million, or $1.30 per diluted share, compared with net earnings of $2 
million, or 11 cents per diluted share, a year ago.  The net loss was 
the result of after-tax unusual charges of $27.1 million, or $1.45 per 
diluted share.  Excluding the unusual charges, fiscal 1999 net earnings 
increased to $2.8 million, or 15 cents per diluted share.  This 
increase resulted from higher operating earnings in the Company's 
Multifoods Distribution Group and North America Foods business 
segments, which offset the decline in Venezuela Foods' operating 
results.

Unusual charges in fiscal 1999 resulted from the Company's plan to 
consolidate its distribution businesses and to close a durum mill in 
Venezuela.  In addition, unusual charges included the write-off of 
receivables from a major customer of the Company's former food 
exporting business and costs associated with the Canadian frozen bakery 
business.  The Company expects that savings achieved in fiscal 1999 
from these actions will be offset by relocation costs and other one-
time costs of the business consolidation, which will be expensed as 
incurred.  The Company, however, expects these actions to improve 
operating earnings by $5 million to $7 million in fiscal 2000 and $11 
million to $14 million in fiscal 2001. Further discussion of unusual 
charges follows in Segment Results and in Note 4 to the consolidated 
condensed financial statements.  

Net sales for fiscal 1999 declined 1% to $661.1 million as higher 
Multifoods Distribution Group net sales were offset by decreases in 
North America Foods and Venezuela Foods.


Segment Results

Multifoods Distribution Group:  Net sales increased 2% to $454.7 million 
as a result of higher sales volumes to vending distribution's 
independent customer segment.  Net sales in foodservice distribution 
were flat as increased sales to the pizza and Mexican customer segments 
were offset by the Company's decision to relinquish several low margin 
accounts.  Operating earnings before unusual items increased 86% to 
$6.5 million, primarily as a result of lower bad debt and 
administrative expenses.  

In fiscal 1999, the Company recognized an $11.5 million unusual charge 
for actions associated with the Company's plan to consolidate its 
vending and foodservice distribution operations into a single business.  
The plan involves reducing the number of distribution centers by nine, 
reducing the work force by approximately 300 employees and reducing the 
vehicle fleet size by up to 10 percent. The charges cover losses on 
lease commitments, employee termination benefits, costs incurred for 
outside consultants and the write-down of leasehold improvements.

North America Foods:  Net sales declined 4% to $110.5 million due to 
lower prices that resulted from a reduction in commodity costs and from 
unfavorable currency translation.  The decline in net sales was 
partially offset by higher sales volumes.  Operating earnings before 
unusual items increased 53% to $4.6 million.  The increase resulted 
from the higher sales volumes, improved gross margins, and lower 
selling and administrative expenses.  The increase in gross margins was 
the result of a more favorable product mix and lower ingredient costs.

In fiscal 1999, the Company recognized an unusual charge of $7.2 
million for the write-down of assets and the cost of work-force 
reductions associated with its Canadian frozen bakery business.  The 
charge resulted from the Company's inability to sell the business at a 
price acceptable to the Company and from the loss of a major customer 
in May 1998.  In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 121, the Company evaluated the carrying value of its 
long-lived assets as a result of these recent events.  The Company 
estimated the fair value of the assets based on information received 
from prospective buyers and in consideration of the loss of the major 
customer.  Accordingly, the Company recognized a $5.8 million charge to 
reduce the carrying value of the assets.  In addition, the unusual 
charge included $1.4 million primarily for employee termination 
benefits.

Venezuela Foods:  Net sales declined 6% to $95.9 million primarily as a 
result of a substantial decrease in consumer corn flour volumes.  
Volumes were affected by a decline in the amount of corn flour the 
Company was awarded to provide under a Venezuelan government subsidy 
program.  In the prior year first quarter, the Company supplied 100% of 
the corn flour for this program.  The decline in net sales was 
partially offset by increased animal feed sales volumes that resulted 
from a new customer. Excluding unusual charges, the business segment 
recognized an operating loss of $1.3 million, compared with operating 
earnings of $2.8 million last year.  The operating loss resulted 
primarily from a significant decline in gross margins and the lower 
corn flour volumes.  The gross margin decline resulted from difficult 
economic conditions that prevented the Company from raising prices to 
cover higher raw material and operating costs.

In fiscal 1999, the Company recognized an unusual charge of $8.5 
million associated with its Venezuela Foods business.  The charge 
included a $5.3 million asset write-down, which resulted from the 
Company's decision in May 1998 to close a durum mill. In accordance 
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, the Company 
evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of its durum mill as 
a result of its decision to close and sell the facility.  The Company 
estimated the fair value of the facility based on information received 
from prospective buyers. In addition, the unusual charge included $3.2 
million primarily for costs associated with employee severance 
liabilities which resulted from a new Venezuelan law and costs 
associated with the departure of the business segment's former 
president.

The Company expects that the difficult economic and competitive 
environment in Venezuela will continue to adversely affect the 
Company's Venezuela Foods' operating results in fiscal 1999.  In order 
to improve operating performance, the Company is continuing to evaluate 
additional opportunities to reduce costs and focus on strategies that 
provide the highest possible returns to shareholders.  As a result, 
additional actions taken by the Company could result in material 
unusual charges to the Company's results of operations.

Divested Business:  The Company's Divested Business segment represents 
its food exporting business, which the Company exited in fiscal 1998.  
Operating earnings before unusual charges were $0.8 million, which 
represented a refund of customs tax paid in prior years.

In fiscal 1999, the Company recognized an unusual charge of $10.3 
million for the write-off of receivables from a major customer of its 
former food exporting business.  The Company had negotiated an exit 
agreement with this customer in fiscal 1998, which provided for 
payments to the Company for amounts due under notes and accounts 
receivable.  The agreement had been restructured on several occasions 
because of the customer's financial difficulties.  As a result of 
uncertainties with respect to the customer's ability to meet its 
obligations, the Company recognized a $5 million charge in the fourth 
quarter of fiscal 1998.  In June 1998, the Company was notified by the 
customer that it would not be able to meet its obligations under the 
restructured exit agreement.  The Company believes the customer's 
financial problems were caused by its difficulty in moving product into 
the Russian marketplace and were complicated by recent economic 
difficulties in Russia.  Accordingly, the Company believes that 
remaining amounts due from the customer are not collectible. 

Non-operating Expense and Income

Net interest expense declined to $3.8 million, compared with $4.5 
million last year as a result of lower debt levels.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate on earnings before unusual items was 38% in 
fiscal 1999, compared with 30% in fiscal 1998.  The increase was due to 
the substantial decline in Venezuela Foods' operating results, which 
had a low effective tax rate in prior years.  If fiscal 1999 Venezuela 
Foods operating results fall below currently projected levels, the 
Company's overall effective tax rate will increase from its current 
level.

Financial Condition:

The debt-to-total capitalization ratio increased to 42% at May 31, 
1998, compared with 38% at February 28, 1998, primarily as a result of 
increased working capital requirements.  Working capital requirements 
increased as a result of the timing of payments.  The increase in 
working capital levels was partially offset by lower inventory 
balances, which declined primarily because of seasonal factors in 
Canada and Venezuela, and the emphasis on reducing inventory levels 
throughout the Company.

The Company's $37.5 million unusual charge included $25.3 million of 
non-cash costs and $12.2 million of cash outlays that are expected to 
occur over the next 24 months.  In addition, the Company estimates it 
will incur capital expenditures of $15 million to $20 million over the 
next 24 months associated with upgrading the remaining distribution 
warehouse facilities.  The Company plans to use future cash flows from 
operations along with available external financing to fund these 
estimated cash outlays.
