NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of the Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
the three and nine month periods ended October 30, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending January
29, 2000. The financial statements include the accounts of Saks Incorporated
(the "Company;" formerly Proffitt's, Inc.) and its subsidiaries. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended January 30, 1999.
The accompanying balance sheet at January 30, 1999 has been derived from the
audited financial statements at that date.
In conjunction with the Company's acquisition of Saks Holdings, Inc. ("SHI"),
management adjusted the Company's financial statements in 1998, as required
by pooling of interest accounting, to include the historical results of SHI.
In preparing those financial statements in 1998, management changed SHI's
classification of several items to conform to the Company's classifications.
During this process, management inadvertently classified employee
compensation and similar expenses related to store management and store
merchandise stock employees as Cost of Sales. These costs should have been
classified as Selling, General and Administrative ("SGA") costs.
Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income
have been revised to reflect the reclassification of $10,156 and $29,422 from
Cost of Sales to SGA for the three month and nine month periods ended October
31, 1998, respectively. These reclassifications have no effect on previously
reported net income and shareholders' equity.

NOTE 2 -- BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Effective September 17, 1998, Proffitt's, Inc. combined its business with
SHI, the holding company of Saks & Company which did business as Saks Fifth
Avenue, Off 5th, Folio and Bullock & Jones. The merger has been accounted
for as a pooling-of-interests. In conjunction with the merger, Proffitt's,
Inc. changed its corporate name to Saks Incorporated.
For the three month and nine month periods ended October 30, 1999 and October
31, 1998, the Company incurred certain merger and integration costs ("M&I")
related to several prior business combinations, including SHI. The costs
were (before income taxes) $8.3 million and $92.8 million, respectively, for
the three months ended October 30, 1999 and October 31, 1998 and $26.8
million and $98.7 million, respectively, for the nine months ended October
30, 1999 and October 31, 1998. The costs for 1999 primarily consisted of the
consolidation and conversion of redundant systems and administrative
operations. The costs for 1998 were primarily comprised of the initial
abandonment of assets and professional fees associated with the SHI
acquisition.
A reconciliation of the aforementioned costs to the amounts of merger and
integration costs remaining unpaid at October 30, 1999 is as follows (in
thousands):
Amounts unpaid at January 30, 1999

NOTE 4 -- CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in several legal proceedings arising in the normal
course of business activities, and accruals for losses have been established
where appropriate. Management believes that none of these legal proceedings
will have an ongoing material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated
financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
NOTE 5 -- SEGMENT REPORTING
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information." SFAS No. 131 provides companies the opportunity to aggregate
two or more operating segments into a single operating segment if the
segments have similar characteristics. In applying SFAS No. 131, the Company
identified three reportable segments, which are as follows: department
stores, catalog and furniture stores. The catalog and furniture stores
segments represent less than three percent of the Company's total revenues,
assets and operating profit. Consistent with its practice in 1998, the three
identified segments are combined within the Company's condensed consolidated
financial statements.
NOTE 6 -- NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133," which amended the effective date provisions of SFAS No.
133. The new statement defers application to all fiscal quarters of all
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Thus, SFAS No. 133 will be
effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, and the
Company is in the process of ascertaining the impact this new standard will
have on its financial statements.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" in 1998.
Components of the Company's comprehensive income for the year ended January
30, 1999 included the net loss of $0.9 million and a minimum pension
liability adjustment of $7.5 million, net of taxes. The Company had no
changes to the components of comprehensive income for the three month or nine
month periods ended October 30, 1999 and October 31, 1998 other than net
income.
10
NOTE 7 - SHARE REPURCHASES
In July 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a share
repurchase program for up to five million shares, or approximately 3.5% of
the outstanding common stock. As of October 30, 1999, 1,100,000 shares had
been repurchased under the program for an aggregate amount of $18.7 million.
Also outstanding at the end of the third quarter were common equity put
options written by the Company on 500,000 shares at an exercise price of
$17.75 per share that were exercised in late November and early December of
1999.
NOTE 8 -- CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following tables present condensed consolidating financial information
for: 1) Saks Incorporated; 2) on a combined basis, the guarantors of Saks
Incorporated's Senior Notes (which are the subsidiaries of Saks Incorporated
with material assets, except for Saks Credit Corporation ("SCC"), Saks
Transitional Credit Corporation ("STCC"), National Bank of the Great Lakes
("NBGL"), and SHI real estate financing subsidiaries and related trusts
("REMICs"); and 3) on a combined basis, SCC, STCC, NBGL, and REMICs, the only
active subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes.
On June 30, 1999, in connection with the Company's restructured accounts
receivable securitization program (see Management's Discussion and Analysis,
"Liquidity and Capital Resources"), the Company formed SCC and STCC as
special purpose entities. These entities replaced Proffitt's Credit
Corporation and SFA Finance Company as the Company's special purpose
entities.
Separate financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries are not presented
because the guarantors are jointly, severally, and unconditionally liable
under the guarantees, and the Company believes the condensed consolidating
financial statements are more meaningful in understanding the financial
position of the guarantor subsidiaries.
On January 31, 1999, immediately following the Company's fiscal year end, the
Company restructured its legal entity composition. This restructuring
changed the composition of Saks Incorporated to include only the operations
of a small group of corporate employees and the majority of the Company's
long-term debt. The consolidating financial statements presented for the
three and nine months ended October 30, 1999 reflect this new legal entity
composition. The consolidating financial statements presented for the three
and nine months ended October 31, 1998 reflect the legal entity composition
in place at the time. Certain prior year reclassifications to the condensed
consolidating financial statements have been made to conform to current year
presentation. Borrowings and the related interest expense under Saks
Incorporated's revolving credit facility are allocated to Saks Incorporated
and the guarantor subsidiaries under arrangements among Saks Incorporated and
the subsidiaries.

<PAGE 20>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and debt balances fluctuated
throughout the year due to the seasonal nature of the retail industry.
Retained interest in accounts receivable at October 30, 1999 is lower
compared to October 31, 1998 primarily due to a higher percentage of
receivables being sold under the Company's securitization facility.
Merchandise inventory and property and equipment balances at October 30, 1999
increased over October 31, 1998 balances primarily due to new store locations
opened and expansions of existing stores during the last twelve months, as
well as the acquisition of stores from Dillard's completed in the fourth
quarter 1998.
Goodwill and intangibles at October 30, 1999 increased over October 31, 1998
balances primarily due to the goodwill and intangibles associated with the
acquisition of Dillard's stores completed in the fourth quarter 1998.
21
Senior debt at October 30, 1999 increased over senior debt at October 31,
1998 primarily due to borrowings related to the replacement of subordinated
debt with senior debt, the acquisition of the Dillard's stores completed in
the fourth quarter 1998 and other new stores opened in last twelve months and
the related working capital requirements for these stores.
In conjunction with the SHI merger and the acquisition of the Dillard's
stores, the Company initiated a series of refinancing activities between
September 1998 and July 1999 that were designed to provide appropriate debt
maturities and increase overall liquidity.
Included within the Company's senior debt are real estate and mortgage notes.
The October 30, 1999 real estate and mortgage notes balance declined from the
October 31, 1998 balance by $240 million primarily due to the repurchase of
$236 million of outstanding REMIC mortgage certificates in February 1999.
Also included within the Company's senior debt are senior notes payable. The
October 30, 1999 notes payable balance increased by $1.65 billion from the
October 31, 1998 balance due to the November and December 1998 issuance of
$1.1 billion in senior notes and the February and July 1999 issuances of $200
million and $350 million in senior notes, respectively, all with maturities
ranging from 2004 to 2019 and interest rates between 7% and 8-1/4%, offset by
the September 1998 purchase of the Company's $125 million 8.125% senior
notes. The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement for a
notional amount in full in connection with the July 1999 $350 million senior
note issuance, which swaps a fixed rate with a variable interest rate.
At October 30, 1999 the Company had total debt outstanding of approximately
$2.10 billion with an additional $710 million available to borrow under its
existing credit facilities. Of the available amount, $460 million expires in
2003 and $250 million expires in August of 2000. In August of 1999, the
Company replaced its $500 million 364 day revolving credit facility with the
new $250 million 364 day facility that matures in August 2000. No debt was
outstanding on this $250 million facility at October 30, 1999.
At October 30, 1999, subordinated debt decreased from the balance at October
31, 1998 due to the fourth quarter 1998 purchase of $274 million of SHI's
5-1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes due September 2006. The Company's
acquisition of SHI triggered a change in control provision in the notes that
required the Company to purchase at par plus accrued interest any notes
tendered to it.
On June 30, 1999, as a result of the acquisition of SHI, the Company
terminated SHI's accounts receivable securitization facility and sold the SHI
receivables through the Company's accounts receivable securitization
facilities. The Company's credit card bank, National Bank of the Great
Lakes, sells an undivided interest in its accounts receivable to SCC which
sells the receivables to Saks Credit Card Master Trust ("SCCMT"). At October
30, 1999, the Company had $497 million in fixed rate term certificates
outstanding, $401 million in floating rate term certificates outstanding and
$178 million outstanding under its variable funding certificates.

Net sales
For the three months ended October 30, 1999, total Company sales were $1.60
billion, a 9% increase over $1.47 billion in the prior year. For the nine
months ended October 30, 1999, total Company sales were $4.57 billion, a 10%
increase over $4.17 billion in the prior year. The sales increase for the
quarter and nine months was primarily attributable to additional sales from
new stores opened, the Dillard's stores acquired in October and December
1998, and a comparable store sales increase of 4% for the quarter and 3% on
a year to date basis.
Gross margin
For the three months and nine months ended October 30, 1999, the Company's
gross margin percentage increased 310 and 140 basis points, respectively,
over the prior year. The improvement is primarily due to charges taken in
the prior year related to markdowns in connection with the SHI acquisition,
which negatively impacted margin. The improvement also reflects reduced
levels of clearance merchandise, continued efficiencies in distribution and
logistics, increased penetration of higher margin proprietary brand
merchandise and the conversion of the shoe departments at the Carson Pirie
Scott stores from leased to owned.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SGA")
SGA decreased as a percentage of net sales for the three months and nine
months ended October 30, 1999 by 200 and 140 basis points, respectively.
This rate improvement primarily resulted from higher than normal prior year
expenses associated with the SHI acquisition. Additionally, the Company has
achieved targeted cost reductions related to each of the Company's completed
business combinations and certain productivity efficiencies.
24
Merger and integration costs ("M&I")
The Company incurred M&I costs totaling $8.3 million, or 0.5% of net sales,
for the three months ended October 30, 1999 and $26.8 million, or 0.6% of net
sales, for the nine months ended October 30, 1999 primarily related costs
incurred in the conversion and consolidation of systems and administrative
operations.
Year 2000 expenses ("Y2K")
The Company's Y2K compliance project began in 1997. From commencement of the
Y2K project through October 30, 1999, the Company's Y2K expenses have totaled
$21.5 million. Company management anticipates that additional Y2K expenses
will total approximately $1.9 million for the balance of 1999. The Company
believes its significant systems are Y2K compliant. Modification and testing
of the significant systems has been completed; however, the Company plans to
continue its system testing into the fourth quarter of 1999. For complete
disclosure of the Company's Y2K issues, refer to "Management's Discussion and
Analysis" contained in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 1999.
Losses from long-lived assets and closures
In June 1999, the Company announced the consolidation of its existing
southeastern distribution centers. Construction of a new southern
distribution center to be located in Steele, Alabama began in October 1999.
This facility is scheduled for completion in late 2000 and will be fully
operational in mid-year 2001 for an estimated cost of approximately $30
million and will employ approximately 220 people. The Company will
consolidate its existing distribution facilities for McRae's, Proffitt's, and
Parisian into the new facility. As part of this consolidation, approximately
350 salaried and hourly employees at the existing facilities will be
terminated. During the quarter ended October 30, 1999, the Company recorded
a liability for these estimated severance costs and termination costs of $1.6
million and reflected the charge as a loss on long-lived assets and closures.
As of October 30, 1999, there were no termination benefits paid and charged
against the liability. The existing facilities are considered "assets held
for use" as defined by SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." The exited
facilities had a $12 million carrying value at October 30, 1999 and the Company
will record a gain or loss associated with these facilities, if any, in
accordance with SFAS 121. The remaining losses of $0.3 million related
to the write off of abandoned store assets offset by a gain on the sale of
a partnership interest in a mall.
Interest expense
For the three months ended October 30, 1999, interest expense increased in
dollars and as a percentage of net sales by $6.7 million and 30 basis points,
respectively. For the nine months ended October 30, 1999, interest expense
increased in dollars and as a percentage of net sales by $26.7 million and 50
basis points, respectively. The increase for both the three and nine month
periods was primarily due to additional indebtedness related to the fall 1998
cash purchase of 15 stores from Dillard's and capital expenditures, as well
as a slightly higher average borrowing rate.
25
Other income (expense), net
The Company incurred other income totaling $0.08 million for the three months
ended October 30, 1999 and $2.9 million for the nine months ended October 30,
1999 versus other expenses of $18.4 million for the three months ended
October 31, 1998 and $17.7 million for the nine months ended October 31,
1998. The prior year expenses relate specifically to charges associated with
the termination of two hedging agreements as a result of the SHI merger.
Income before extraordinary items
Income before extraordinary items for the three months ended October 30, 1999
totaled $25.9 million, or $.18 per diluted share, compared to a loss before
extraordinary items of $106.1 million, or $.74 per diluted share, for the
three months ended October 31, 1998. Income before extraordinary items for
the nine months ended October 30, 1999 totaled $78.5 million, or $.53 per
diluted share, compared to a loss before extraordinary items of $75.1
million, or $.53 per diluted share, for the nine months ended October 31,
1998. The improvement in income over the prior year primarily was due to a
significant decline in merger and integration charges, higher gross margin
performance and leverage on SGA.
Extraordinary item
The extraordinary loss for the nine months ended October 30, 1999 related to
the February 1999 repurchase of $236 million of outstanding REMIC mortgage
certificates. In conjunction with this debt restructuring, the Company
incurred charges related to the early extinguishment of debt totaling $9.3
million after taxes.
