Exhibit 99 to Form 8-K

            Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
                McCormick & Company, Incorporated


The Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets
of Gilroy Foods, Incorporated (GFI) and Gilroy Energy Company,
Inc. (GEC) as described in Item 2 of this Form 8-K.  In addition
the sale of GEC necessitated the prepayment of the Company's
11.68% nonrecourse installment note due 2006 (GEC note).  The
following unaudited pro forma financial statements reflect all
three of these transactions.  The Company will record all of
these transactions in the third quarter ended August 31, 1996,
and the gain and losses on these transactions are not expected to
be materially different than those reflected in these pro forma
financial statements.

The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Income for the year ended November 30, 1995 and the six months
ended May 31, 1996 are prepared assuming that the sales of GFI
and GEC and the prepayment of GEC notes had taken place on
December 1, 1994. The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet as of May 31, 1996 is prepared assuming that the
sales and prepayment of debt had taken place on that date.

The pro forma financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the net proceeds of the sale of GEC and GFI and the
prepayment of GEC notes was used to repay short term borrowings. 
On August 29, 1996 when the net proceeds from these transactions
were received, the Company used substantially all of those
proceeds to immediately reduce short term borrowings.  However,
in the near term the Company also intends to use these proceeds
to fund a 10 million share stock repurchase program announced on
September 3, 1996, to fund future acquisitions and for general
corporate purposes as the Company expands its core business.

The pro forma financial statements have been prepared by
adjusting the historical financial statements for the effect of
sales, expenses, assets and liabilities which might have occurred
had the sales of GFI and GEC and the prepayment of GEC notes
taken place on the dates indicated.  These pro forma financial
statements are provided for informational purposes only and are
not necessarily indicative of what the financial statements of
the Company would have been had the transactions taken place on
the dates indicated.  Further, these pro forma financial
statements do not purport to indicate the future results of
operations or financial position of the Company.

These pro forma financial statements should be read in connection
with the historical financial statements of the Company that have
been filed with the Commission.

(a) To reflect the elimination of the operating results of GFI and GEC which were included
    in the consolidated results for the periods presented.
(b) To reflect the net reduction of interest expense due to the assumed prepayment of short-
    term borrowings.  Short-term borrowings were assumed to be reduced by the net proceeds
    (after expenses and tax payments) from the sale of GFI and GEC.  Short-term borrowings
    were assumed to be increased by the prepayment of GEC notes net of the related tax
    benefits.  The interest rate used was 6.08% for the year ended November 30, 1995 and
    5.6% for the six months ended May 31, 1996.  These rates approximated the Corporation's
    average short-term borrowing rates during the respective periods.  The effect on pro
    forma net income of a 1/8% variance in the assumed interest rate would be approximately
    $130 thousand.
(c) To reflect income earned on a non-compete agreement with Calpine Corporation.  It is
    assumed that the Corporation would not have violated the terms of the non-compete
    agreement during the pro forma periods presented.
(d) To reflect the income tax effect of the pro forma adjustments.  Tax effects were
    calculated using the marginal tax rates for the taxing jurisdictions affected by the
    adjustments.
(e) To reflect the reduction of interest expense for the assumed prepayment of the GEC
    notes.
