Background The Pillsbury Company (hereafter Pillsbury), its subsidiaries and its related entities (hereafter the Company) included in the combined financial statements was a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Diageo plc (Diageo), a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, as of and during the periods of these combined financial statements. These combined financial statements do not include certain information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. These combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the combined financial statements and footnotes for the year ended June 30, 2001. The accounting policies used in preparing these combined financial statements are the same as those described in Note (2) to the combined financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2001. Certain amounts in the prior year combined financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 2. Unusual Items In the three month periods ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000, the Company recorded $20 million and $5 million, respectively, primarily for merger costs related to the acquisition of the Company by General Mills. These costs were primarily comprised of retention incentives and legal and outside professional fees. 3. Subsequent Event On October 31, 2001, Diageo sold the Company to General Mills, Inc. for 134 million shares of General Mills, Inc. stock, together with cash paid and debt assumed by General Mills, Inc. totaling $3.8 billion. Certain Retail and Foodservice businesses of Pillsbury were disposed of on November 13, 2001 in connection with the transaction. The Retail businesses divested include: Pillsbury Desserts & Baking Mixes; Martha White Desserts & Baking Mixes; Hungry Jack Potatoes and Dry Breakfast, including certain international export sales in Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Mexico; and Pet Milk. The Foodservice businesses divested include non-custom foodservice dry mix products in boxes of seven pounds and less and non-custom frosting products in packages of eleven pounds and less. 5 Also in connection with the transaction, a joint venture partner of Pillsbury, on December 26, 2001, exercised its right triggered by the change in ownership of Pillsbury, to purchase Pillsbury's 50 percent equity interest in Ice Cream Partners USA LLC (ICP). ICP was a joint venture formed for the manufacture, marketing and distribution of Haagen-Dazs ice cream products in the United States. 6
