The December 31, 2001 restructuring reserve balance of $6.9 million consisted of
severance items that were paid or utilized in 2002 associated with restructuring
charges recorded in 2000 and 2001.
In the fourth quarter of 2002, Maytag announced it would close its refrigeration
manufacturing facility in Galesburg, Illinois by the end of 2004. The Company
recorded a $67.1 million pre-tax restructuring charge including $32.8 million
for asset impairments, accelerated depreciation and severance and related costs
as shown in the table above. The remaining $34.4 million charge related to
pension and postretirement health care benefits curtailments that are reflected
in the Accrued pension cost and Postretirement benefit liability on the
Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total pre-tax restructuring charges are
estimated to be in the range of $130 to $145 million. The remaining expenses are
expected to be incurred in 2003 and 2004. Approximately $25 million of the total
restructuring charge will be cash items primarily covering severance costs and
costs to move equipment. A $9.4 million pre-tax charge related to this
restructuring was recorded in the first quarter of 2003. Cash expenditures for
the three months ended March 31, 2003 related to this charge were $0.5 million.

approximately $20 million in the second quarter of 2003 in connection with a
salaried workforce reduction of approximately 500 jobs. The charge includes
severance and early retirement incentives for which cash expenditures are
expected to be approximately $10 million in the second quarter.
NOTE I - STOCK PLANS
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25), and related interpretations
in accounting for its employee stock options and awards. Under APB 25, employee
stock options are valued using the intrinsic method, and no compensation expense
is recorded when the exercise price of options equals or is greater than the
fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The following
table shows the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had
applied the fair value recognition provision of FASB Statement No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."

NOTE J - WARRANTY RESERVE
The Company provides a basic limited warranty for all of its major appliance,
floor care and commercial products. The specific terms and conditions of those
warranties vary depending upon the product sold. A liability for the estimated
costs that will be incurred during the warranty period is recorded at the same
time that revenues are recognized. Factors that can affect the total warranty
liability include the number of units shipped to customers, historical and
anticipated rates of warranty claims and cost per claim. On a quarterly basis,
an assessment is made of the adequacy of the warranty reserve resulting in
adjustments as necessary.
Changes in warranty liability for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
are as follows:

-------------------------
Balance at end of period $ 103,605 $ 107,618
=========================
An optional extended warranty is offered to retail purchasers of the Company's
major appliances. Sales of extended warranties are recorded as deferred revenue
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred revenue is amortized into income on
a straight-line basis over the length of the extended warranty contracts.
Payments on extended warranty contracts are expensed as incurred. The majority
of this exposure has been transferred to a third party insurance provider.
Premiums paid for this insurance are recorded as deferred charges on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet and amortized to expense on a straight-line basis
over the life of the extended warranty contracts.
NOTE K - IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) recently issued Interpretation
No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." The interpretation
explains how to identify variable interest entities and how an enterprise
assesses its interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to
consolidate that entity. It requires existing unconsolidated variable interest
entities to be consolidated by an entity if it is the primary beneficiary. A
primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is the party that absorbs a
majority of the entity's expected losses, receives a majority of its expected
residual returns, or both, as a result of holding variable interests. This
interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after
January 31, 2003 and the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after
June 15, 2003 to variable interest entities in which a company holds a variable
interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. Maytag does not expect the
interpretation to have any effect on its consolidated financial position.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Maytag has two reportable segments: home appliances and commercial appliances
(see additional discussion and financial information in the "Segment Reporting"
section of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Net Sales: Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of 2003 were $1.136
billion, a decrease of approximately four percent compared to the same period in
2002. Sales decreased due to weakness in the home appliances segment.
Home appliances net sales, which include major appliances, floor care products
and international export sales, decreased four percent compared to 2002. This
decrease was due to lower sales of both major appliances and floor care
products. Sales of appliances decreased due to lower industry shipments in the
quarter and a decrease in Maytag's overall market share compared to the first
quarter of 2002. However, overall market share in the first quarter of 2003
increased compared to the fourth quarter of 2002. The negative effects on sales
were partially offset by higher average selling prices associated with improved
product mix. Sales of floor care products also decreased because of lower
industry shipments, a decrease in market share, pricing decreases and a product
mix shift towards products in lower price categories. Market share of floor care
products in the first quarter increased compared to the fourth quarter of 2002.
Two new floor care products are planned for introduction in the second half of
2003 that are intended to compete at lower price points.
U.S. industry unit shipments of major appliances were down two percent for the
first quarter of 2003. For full year 2003, the Company expects the major
appliances industry to be flat compared to 2002. Floor care industry shipments
were down approximately seven percent for the first quarter of 2003. Maytag
expects the floor care industry shipments for the full year 2003 to be flat to
up one percent compared to 2002.
Commercial appliances net sales, which include vending equipment and commercial
cooking products, increased six percent in the first quarter of 2003 compared to
2002. The increase was due partially to improved product mix of vending
equipment sales. Increases in sales of glass-front venders helped to offset
decreases in sales of traditional venders. The increase also is attributable to
a more diversified product mix including expanded vender refurbishment and coin
changer businesses. Maytag expects the vending equipment industry to be down 10
to 15 percent in 2003 compared to 2002. However, the Company expects increased
average selling prices to continue in 2003 offsetting much of the industry
weakness.
Gross Profit: Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales decreased to 17.6
percent in the first quarter of 2003 from 22.0 percent in the first quarter of
2002. This decrease resulted primarily from higher costs across all business
segments and pricing actions in the Home Appliance segment.
An increase in pension and post-retirement medical expenses due to assumption
changes for 2003 was a primary reason for higher costs in the first quarter of
2003. The assumption changes for 2003 included a higher discount rate, a lower
expected rate of return on pension assets, and a higher trend rate for health
care costs as compared to the same assumptions for 2002. Material cost increases
also negatively impacted gross profit as a percent of sales. Maytag was not able
to offset higher commodity prices with procurement initiatives in the first
quarter of 2003. The increase in material costs adversely impacted gross profit
as a percent of sales for all business segments. In addition to these cost
increases, Maytag also recorded additional costs for several product-related
matters in the Home Appliance segment including a product recall.
Gross profit as a percent of sales was also negatively impacted by competitive
pricing pressure in the floor care product category within the Home Appliance
segment. In an attempt to maintain and grow revenues, Maytag reduced prices for
several floor care products. As these reduced prices did not result in an
increase in volume, the impact to gross profit as a percent of sales was
significant.
14
Maytag has announced and implemented several cost reduction initiatives
including restructuring. Based upon these initiatives, the Company expects to
offset the cost increases that have impacted gross profit as a percent of sales
in the second half of 2003. Additionally, as described in Net Sales, Maytag is
planning to introduce two new lower-cost floor care products that have been
specifically designed for the lower priced segment of the market. These new
products should allow Maytag to compete more profitably at lower price points.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: Consolidated selling, general and
administrative expenses were 10.8% of sales in the first quarter of 2003
compared to 12.9% of sales in the first quarter of 2002. The primary reason for
the decline as a percent of sales was a planned reduction in discretionary
spending including a substantial decrease in national advertising expenses in
the first quarter of 2003. National advertising expenses are planned at a higher
rate in the second half of the year in order to match scheduled product
introductions. Several cost reduction initiatives also resulted in lower general
and administrative expenses. These cost reduction initiatives were implemented
to help offset the anticipated increases in material costs and pension expense.
Maytag has also announced restructuring plans that will facilitate lower general
and administrative costs in future quarters. In addition to the effect of the
planned reduction in expenses, annual incentive compensation expense was lower
in the first quarter of 2003 as compared to 2002 based on lower than planned
operating income.
Restructuring Charges: In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company announced it
would close its refrigeration manufacturing facility in Galesburg, Illinois by
the end of 2004. The total pre-tax restructuring charges are estimated to be in
the range of $130 to $145 million. A $67.1 million pre-tax restructuring charge
was recorded in 2002 related to pension and postretirement health care benefits
curtailment charges, asset impairments,accelerated depreciation and severance
and related costs. The remaining expenses are expected to be recorded in 2003
and 2004. Approximately $25 million of the total restructuring charge will be
cash items primarily for severance costs and costs to move equipment. A pre-tax
restructuring charge of $9.4 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2003.
Cash expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2003 related to this
charge were $0.5 million.
In April 2003, Maytag announced an additional restructuring program and that it
expects to record a pre-tax charge of approximately $20 million in the second
quarter of 2003 in connection with a salaried workforce reduction of
approximately 500 jobs. This reduction is expected to generate $20 million of
cost savings for the remainder of 2003 and nearly $40 million on an annualized
basis. The charge will include severance and early retirement incentives for
which cash expenditures are expected to be approximately $10 million in the
second quarter.
Operating Income: Consolidated operating income as a percent of sales for the
first quarter of 2003 was 6.0 percent, compared to 9.1 percent in 2002. The 2003
results include $9.4 million of restructuring charges for closing the
refrigeration manufacturing facility in Galesburg, Illinois. The decrease in
operating income as a percent of sales was due to the decrease in gross profit
as a percent of sales and restructuring costs, partially offset by the decrease
in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales, all as
discussed above.
Home appliance operating income as a percent of sales for the first quarter of
2003 was 7.2 percent, compared to 10.6 percent in 2002. The 2003 results include
$9.4 million of restructuring charges. The decrease in operating income as a
percent of sales was due to the decrease in gross profit as a percent of sales
and restructuring costs, partially offset by the decrease in selling, general
and administrative expenses as a percent of sales, all as discussed above.
Commercial appliances operating income as a percent of sales for the first
quarter of 2003 was 3.4 percent, compared to 2.3 percent in 2002. Operating
income as a percent of sales increased due to improved gross profit as a percent
of sales and reduced selling, general and administrative costs as a percent of
sales.
15
General corporate operating expenses for the first quarter of 2003 compared to
2002 decreased 11 percent. The decrease was due to lower incentive compensation
and overall curtailment of expenditures in 2003.
Interest Expense: Interest expense for the first quarter of 2003 was 21% lower
than 2002 due to both lower debt levels and average interest rates.
Income Taxes: The effective tax rates as of March 31, 2003 and 2002 were 34
percent for both periods. Potential federal and state legislative tax changes,
coupled with the 2002 retirement of a minority interest, could result in an
increase in the effective tax rate in 2003.
Net Income: The decrease in net income for the first quarter of 2003, compared
to 2002, was due primarily to the decrease in operating income. The decrease in
diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2003 compared to 2002 was
also due primarily to the decrease in operating income as average diluted shares
outstanding were comparable.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operating
activities and borrowings. Detailed information on cash flows is presented in
the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities: Cash flow provided by operating
activities consists primarily of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items,
changes in working capital items, changes in pension assets and liabilities and
postretirement medical benefits. Non-cash items include depreciation and
amortization and deferred income taxes. Working capital items consist primarily
of accounts receivable, inventories, other current assets and other current
liabilities.
Net cash provided by continuing operations for the first quarter of 2003 was $88
million, an increase of $40 million from the prior year. The increase was due
primarily to $30 million in voluntary pension contributions in the first quarter
of 2002; there were none in the first quarter of 2003. Although Maytag has no
minimum ERISA funding requirements, pension contributions are planned at $135
million for 2003. Other current assets decreased compared to December 31, 2002
due primarily to a tax refund received in the first quarter of 2003. Inventories
and accounts receivable balances as of March 31, 2003 increased compared to
December 31, 2002 mainly due to seasonality.
A substantial portion of accounts receivable is concentrated among major
national retailers. A significant loss of business with any of these retailers
could have an adverse impact on ongoing operations. The Company continues to
sell products to a major retailer that has filed for reorganization under
bankruptcy laws. The accounts receivable balance with this retailer was less
than one percent of net accounts receivable at March 31, 2003.
Certain, accounts receivable are sold to an unconsolidated finance company in
which Maytag has a 50 percent ownership interest and shares equally in returns
and losses of the finance company. These accounts receivable are sold without
recourse although the Company is required to repurchase repossessed inventory.
No such repurchases have been required to date nor are any anticipated. A total
of $30 million of receivables and $11 million of debt were outstanding at March
31, 2003 on the unconsolidated finance company's balance sheet. The investment
in the finance company is accounted for using the equity method and a total
investment of $1.6 million was reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
March 31, 2003.
Total Investing Activities: Maytag's capital expenditures represent continued
investments in its businesses for such items as new product designs, cost
reduction programs, replacement of equipment, targeted capacity expansion and
government mandated product requirements. Capital expenditures for the first
quarter of 2003
16
were $37 million compared to $50 million in 2002. The Company plans to invest
approximately $240 million in capital expenditures in 2003 compared to $230
million in 2002.
Total Financing Activities: Dividend payments on common stock for both the first
quarter of 2003 and 2002 were $14 million or $0.18 per share for both periods.
Any funding requirements for future investing and financing activities in excess
of cash on hand and generated from operations will be supplemented by
borrowings. A commercial paper program is supported by two credit agreements
with a consortium of lenders that provide revolving credit facilities of $200
million each, totaling $400 million. These agreements expire April 29, 2004 and
May 3, 2004. The Consolidated Balance Sheets reflect $298 million of commercial
paper outstanding as of March 31, 2003 that is classified as notes payable. The
credit agreements include financial covenants with respect to interest coverage
and debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The
Company was in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2003 and expects
to be in compliance with these financial covenants through the end of 2003. The
existence of an event of default under the credit agreements or the termination
of the credit agreements because of an event of default would adversely impact
the Company's ability to borrow through the sale of commercial paper. The
Company has a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission providing the ability to issue publicly an aggregate of $300 million
of debt securities as of March 31, 2003.
Maytag reduced debt obligations by $36 million in the first quarter of 2003. The
current portion of long-term debt decreased $152 due primarily to a $150 million
principal payment on a medium term note. Notes payable increased $119 million
due mainly to borrowings used to fund this repayment. For the full year 2003 the
Company expects to reduce debt obligations by $100 million.
Shareowners' Equity: Shareowner's equity is at a historically low level due to a
share repurchase program that increased the cost of treasury stock held from
$219 thousand at December 31, 1994 to $1.5 billion at March 31, 2003. The
Company has also made pension liability adjustments as required by FASB
Statement No. 87 due to the underfunded status of its pension plans that reduced
equity in 2002 and 2001. Management does not believe that the current low level
of equity poses a risk to liquidity because cash flow is strong and there are no
covenants in any debt instruments that include equity or debt-to-asset ratios.
Market Risks
The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk for its transactions,
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. To manage certain
foreign exchange exposures, foreign currency forward contracts are utilized.
Portions of the anticipated foreign currency denominated export sales
transactions, which are denominated primarily in Canadian dollars, are hedged.
There is also an exposure to commodity price risk due to the purchase of
selected commodities used in the manufacture of products. To reduce the effect
of changing raw material prices for selected commodities, commodity swap
agreements are used to hedge a portion of anticipated raw material purchases on
selected commodities.
The Company also is exposed to interest rate risk in its debt portfolio and thus
uses interest rate swap contracts to adjust the proportion of total debt that is
subject to variable and fixed interest rates. The swaps involve the exchange of
fixed and variable rate payments without exchanging the notional principal
amount.
There have been no material changes in the reported market risks of the Company
since December 31, 2002. See further discussion of these market risks and
related financial instruments in the Maytag Corporation annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

In the normal course of business operations, Maytag also has long-term purchase
commitments covering certain raw materials and operating leases that are not
included in the table above.
Contingencies
Maytag has contingent liabilities arising in the normal course of business,
including pending litigation, environmental remediation, taxes and other claims.
The Company's legal department estimates the costs to settle pending litigation,
including legal expenses, based on its experience involving similar cases,
specific facts known, and, if applicable, based on judgments of outside counsel.
It believes the outcome of these matters will not have a materially adverse
effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In February 2003, a jury entered a verdict of $2.1 million in compensatory
damages and $17.9 million in punitive damages against Amana Company, L.P, the
entity from which Maytag purchased the Amana businesses in 2001. The case
involved the termination of a commercial distributorship for Amana products
prior to Maytag's acquisition of the Amana business. The punitive damage award
was recently reduced to $10 million by the trial court. The Company is appealing
the entire verdict and believes that the ultimate resolution of the case will
not have a material impact on its financial position.
As of March 31, 2003, there were approximately $49 million in stand-by letters
of credit primarily associated with the requirement to fund certain unqualified
pension plans in the event of a change in control.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Management's Discussion and Analysis contains statements that are not
historical facts and are considered "forward-looking" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements are identified by their use of the terms: "expect(s)," "intend(s),"
"may impact," "plan(s)," "should," "believe(s)", "anticipate(s)" or similar
terms. The Company or its representatives may also make similar forward-looking
statements from time to time orally or in writing. The reader is cautioned that
these forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks,
uncertainties, or other factors that may cause (and in some cases have caused)
actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking
statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the
following: business conditions and growth of industries in which the Company
competes, including changes in economic conditions in the geographic areas where
its operations exist or products are sold; timing, start-up and customer
acceptance of newly designed products; shortages of manufacturing capacity;
competitive factors, such as price competition and new product introductions;
significant loss of business or inability to collect accounts receivable from a
major national retailer; the cost and availability of raw materials and
purchased components, including the impact of tariffs; the timing and progress
with which it can continue to achieve further cost reductions and savings from
its selling, general and administrative expenses and restructuring initiatives;
union labor
18
relationships; progress on capital projects; the impact of business acquisitions
or dispositions; the ability of Maytag to integrate the operations from
acquisitions into its operations; increasing pension and postretirement health
care costs; the costs of complying with governmental regulations; litigation,
product warranty claims, energy supply, pricing, or supplier disruptions,
currency fluctuations or the material worsening of economic and political
situations around the world.
These factors may not constitute all factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statement. The
Company operates in a continually changing business environment and new facts
emerge from time to time. It cannot predict such factors nor can it assess the
impact, if any, of such factors on its financial position or its results of
operations. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as
a predictor of actual results. Maytag disclaims any responsibility to update any
forward-looking statement provided in this document.
