NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim
financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for fiscal
year end financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K (Commission
File No. 1-11084) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
2. Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods'
financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2002 presentation.
3. New Accounting Pronouncements
During June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets," effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2001. The Company adopted this statement on February 3, 2002. Under SFAS No.
142, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no
longer be amortized. Goodwill is now subject to fair value based impairment
tests. In addition, a transitional goodwill impairment test is required as of
the adoption date. The Company completed the transitional impairment test during
the first quarter of 2002 and determined there were no impairment losses on
existing goodwill. The remaining balance of goodwill is $9.3 million. In
accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company ceased amortization of its remaining
goodwill. Under SFAS No. 142, the Company would have had $1.3 million of
additional pretax income and net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2001, and
the impact on basic and diluted earnings per share would have been less than
$0.01.
In August 2001, The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,"
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS No. 144
addresses financial accounting and reporting for impairment or disposal of
long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144
on February 3, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not have an impact on
the Company's results of operations or financial position.

4. Merchandise Inventories
The Company uses the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of accounting for
merchandise inventories. The following information is provided to show the
effects of the LIFO provision on each quarter, as well as to provide users with
the information to compare to other companies not on LIFO.

had been valued using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
5. Contingencies
The Company is involved in various legal matters arising in the normal
course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of such
proceedings and litigation will not have a material adverse impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.
6. Net Income Per Share
The numerator for the calculation of basic and diluted net income per
share is net income. The denominator is summarized as follows:

Item 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
-------------------------------------------------
CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
------------------------------------
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 4, 2002
------------------------------
Results of Operations
---------------------
At May 4, 2002, the Company operated 420 stores compared with 354
stores at the same time last year. During the quarter, the company continued to
execute its growth strategy by opening 38 new stores. In March, Kohl's entered
the Houston, TX market with 12 stores. In April, the Company opened 26 stores
including entering the Boston market with 13 stores and the Nashville, TN market
with four stores. In addition, the Company added two stores in Dallas, TX; one
store in the Indianapolis, IN market; one store in Huntsville, AL and five
stores in the Northeast region. In fall of 2002, Kohl's plans to open
approximately 32 stores including an entry into the Providence, RI market with
four stores; two additional stores in the Boston, MA market; 14 additional
stores in the Midwest region; five additional stores in the Northeast region and
seven new stores in other existing regions.
Net sales increased $382.3 million or 25.7% to $1,870.6 million for the
three months ended May 4, 2002, from $1,488.3 million for the three months ended
May 5, 2001. Net sales increased $254.3 million due to the opening of 38 new
stores in 2002 and the inclusion of 62 new stores opened in 2001. The remaining
$128.0 million is attributable to comparable store sales growth of 9.1%.
Gross margin for the three months ended May 4, 2002, was $656.8
million, or 35.1% compared to $520.8 million, or 35.0% for the three months
ended May 5, 2001. Gross margin increased $133.8 million due to growth in sales.
The increase in the gross margin rate is primarily attributable to a change in
the sales mix. Accessories and women's apparel, which generally achieve a higher
than average gross margin rate, experienced a rate of sales growth that exceeded
the Company's average for the three months ended May 4, 2002.
Selling, general and administrative (S,G&A) expenses include all direct
store expenses such as payroll, occupancy and store supplies and all costs
associated with the Company's distribution centers, advertising and corporate
functions, but exclude depreciation and amortization. The S,G&A expenses
declined to 22.0% of net sales for the three months ended May 4, 2002, from
22.7% of net sales for the three months ended May 5, 2001. Of the 71 basis
points improvement, 34 basis points are due to improvement in store operating
expenses while the remainder is primarily due to advertising leverage.
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended May 4, 2002,
was $44.0 million compared to $36.8 million for the three months ended May 5,
2001. The
-9-
increase is primarily attributable to the addition of new stores, the opening of
two new distribution centers and the remodeling of existing stores.
Preopening expenses are expensed as incurred and relate to the costs
associated with new store openings, including advertising, hiring and training
costs for new employees, and processing and transporting initial merchandise.
Preopening expense for the three months ended May 4, 2002, was $16.9 million
compared to $13.2 million for the three months ended May 5, 2001. The increase
is primarily due to an increase in the number of new stores opened and the
timing of related expenses. The average cost incurred to open the 38 stores in
the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was $550,000 per store. The average cost
incurred to open the 34 stores in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 was $540,000.
The average cost fluctuates based on the mix of stores opened in new markets
versus fill-in stores opened in existing markets.
As a result of the above factors, operating income for the three months
ended May 4, 2002, increased $51.5 million or 38.9% over the three months ended
May 5, 2001.
Net interest expense for the three months ended May 4, 2002, was $12.6
million compared to $10.6 million for the three months ended May 5, 2001. The
Company incurred incremental interest expense as a result of the $300.0 million
of non-callable secured notes issued March 2001.
Net income for the three months ended May 4, 2002, increased 42.0% to
$106.6 million from $75.1 million for the three months ended May 5, 2001.
Earnings were $0.31 per diluted share for the three months ended May 4, 2002,
compared to $0.22 per diluted share for the three months ended May 5, 2001.
Seasonality & Inflation
-----------------------
The Company's business, like that of most retailers, is subject to
seasonal influences, with the major portion of sales and income typically
realized during the last half of each fiscal year, which includes the
back-to-school and holiday seasons. Approximately 16% and 31% of sales typically
occur during the back-to-school and holiday seasons, respectively. Because of
the seasonality of the Company's business, results for any quarter are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal
year. In addition, quarterly results of operations depend significantly upon the
timing and amount of revenues and costs associated with the opening of new
stores.
The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material effect
on the results during the periods presented. However, there can be no assurance
that the Company's business will not be affected in the future.
-10-
Financial Condition and Liquidity
---------------------------------
The Company's primary ongoing cash requirements are for seasonal and
new store inventory purchases, the growth in credit card accounts receivable and
capital expenditures in connection with expansion and remodeling programs. The
Company's primary sources of funds for its business activities are cash flow
from operations, $225 million of available financing secured by its proprietary
accounts receivable, seasonal borrowings under its $300 million revolving credit
facility and short-term trade credit. Short-term trade credit, in the form of
extended payment terms for inventory purchases, represents a significant source
of financing for merchandise inventories. The Company's working capital and
inventory levels typically build throughout the fall, peaking during the holiday
selling season. In addition, the Company periodically accesses the capital
markets, as needed, to finance its growth. The Company expects to generate
adequate cash flows from operating activities to sustain current levels of
operations. The Company maintains favorable banking relations and anticipates
that the necessary credit agreements will be extended or new agreements will be
entered into in order to provide future borrowings requirements as needed.
The Company's working capital increased to $1,612.8 million at May 4,
2002, from $1,584.1 million at February 2, 2002, and from $1,458.3 million at
May 5, 2001. The increase from May 5, 2001, is primarily attributable to an
increase in accounts receivable and inventory, offset in part by an increase in
accounts payable.
The Company's accounts receivable at May 4, 2002, increased $124.6
million over the May 5, 2001, balance. These receivables are related to the
Company's proprietary credit card. Proprietary credit card sales as a percent of
total net sales increased from 32.2% for the three months ended May 5, 2001, to
33.7% for the three months ended May 4, 2002. Due to the difficult economic
environment in 2001, the Company experienced a significant increase in net
write-off's related to customer bankruptcies and delinquent accounts. As a
result, the allowance for doubtful accounts was increased from $11.4 million or
1.6% of gross receivables at May 5, 2001, to $19.5 million or 2.3% of gross
receivables at May 4, 2002.
The Company's merchandise inventories increased $284.8 million over the
May 5, 2001 balance. The increase was primarily the result of higher merchandise
levels required to support existing stores and new store locations. Accounts
payable increased $193.8 million from May 5, 2001. Fluctuations in the level of
accounts payable are primarily attributable to the timing of inventory receipts
and invoice dating arrangements with vendors.
Cash used in operating activities was $42.3 million for the three
months ended May 4, 2002, compared to $130.6 million for the three months ended
May 5, 2001.
-11-
Excluding changes in operating assets and liabilities, cash provided by
operating activities was $182.3 million for the three months ended May 4, 2002,
compared to $122.8 million for the three months ended May 5, 2001. The change in
cash was due to an increase in net income and the related provision for deferred
income taxes.
Capital expenditures for the three months ended May 4, 2002, were
$165.8 million compared to the $176.1 million for the same period a year ago.
The decrease in expenditures is primarily attributable to the timing of spending
related to new stores.
Total capital expenditures for fiscal 2002 are expected to be
approximately $740 million. This estimate includes new store spending as well as
base capital needs. The actual amount of the Company's future annual capital
expenditures will depend primarily on the number of new stores opened, whether
such stores are owned or leased by the Company and the number of existing stores
remodeled or refurbished.
The Company opened 38 new stores during the quarter, including entering
the Houston market with 12 stores; the Boston market with 13 stores and the
Nashville market with four stores. The Company plans to open 32 additional
stores during the third quarter, including 8 new stores in August and 24 new
stores in October.
In 2003, the Company plans to open approximately 80 new stores
including the opening of approximately 40 stores in Southern California, Phoenix
and Las Vegas. A distribution center, located in San Bernardino, CA, is
currently under construction and will be opened at the end of fiscal 2002 to
support the Company's expansion into this region.
In March 2002, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form
S-3 with the SEC, which was effective June 6, 2002. The registration statement
allows the Company to publicly offer and sell securities from time to time for
an aggregate offering price of up to $300 million.
Forward Looking Statements
