INTERNATIONAL MULTIFOODS REPORTS FISCAL 2004
FOURTH-QUARTER, FULL-YEAR RESULTS

EPS of $1.30 Before Unusual Items Within Previous Company Guidance

        MINNEAPOLIS, March 31, 2004—International Multifoods Corp. (NYSE: IMC) today reported fourth-quarter fiscal 2004 net earnings of $2.7 million, or 14 cents per diluted share, compared with net earnings of $7.9 million, or 40 cents per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. Excluding unusual items totaling 9 cents per diluted share in the current quarter and a gain from discontinued operations of 2 cents per share in the year-earlier period, earnings were 23 cents per diluted share, down from 38 cents per share last year.

        Net sales for the three months ended Feb. 28 were $212 million, down 2.6 percent from $217.6 million in the prior year.

        For the full year, Multifoods reported net earnings of $17.5 million, or 90 cents per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $46 million, or $2.37 per share, in fiscal 2003. Excluding unusual and one-time items in both fiscal years and a loss from discontinued operations in the prior year, diluted earnings per share in fiscal 2004 were $1.30, down from $1.58 in fiscal 2003.

        Net sales for the 12 months ended Feb. 28 were $908 million, down 3.3 percent from $939.3 million in fiscal 2003.

        A reconciliation of fourth-quarter and full-year earnings per share from continuing operations before unusual and one-time items to reported results is included at the end of this release, along with additional information on unusual and one-time items.

        "Our results for the year were in line with our revised earnings expectations of $1.30 to $1.40 per share and free cash flow target range of $5 million to $10 million," said Gary E. Costley, Multifoods chairman, president and chief executive officer. "We remain focused on our strategic priorities of brand-building, product innovation and improving our operational efficiencies. We continue to see moderation in the competitive environment in the U.S. retail baking products category and gradual improvement in some segments of the foodservice industry. We are off to a good start in fiscal 2005 with our businesses better positioned to capitalize on improving market conditions over the next year. We expect to continue this momentum into the pending merger with The J.M. Smucker Company. We are confident in the benefits that the combination of Smucker and Multifoods will bring to our key stakeholders."


        Free cash flow for the 12 months ended Feb. 28 was $7.1 million (cash flows of $42.6 million from continuing operations less capital expenditures of $35.5 million).

        Debt at the end of fiscal 2004 was $342.3 million, essentially even with the prior year. Sequentially, debt was down approximately $34 million from the end of the third quarter as a result of strong operating cash flows.

        Net interest expense for the quarter was $4.7 million, down from $5.7 million in the year-earlier period. For the full year, the company's effective tax rate for continuing operations before unusual and one-time items was 32 percent. Including unusual and one-time items, the tax rate was approximately 29 percent. The company's cash taxes paid are substantially less than book expense because of the recognition of net operating loss carry-forwards.

        Capital expenditures were $7.4 million for the quarter and $35.5 million for the year. Investments related to the Pillsbury desserts and specialty products acquisition accounted for approximately $19 million of total capital expenditures in fiscal 2004 and included the purchase of a baking mix plant in Toledo, Ohio, for $11.5 million. Depreciation and amortization amounted to $5.7 million for the quarter and $22 million for the year.

        Excluding unusual items, operating earnings in the current quarter fell to $11.2 million, down from $16.7 million in the prior year, due to higher selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses versus lower-than-usual fourth-quarter SG&A costs last year. The increase in SG&A expenses was driven in part by lower pension income and increased investment in new product initiatives, more than offsetting a 120-basis-point improvement in gross profit margin in the quarter.

        Following is a review of the company's fourth-quarter operating results by segment:

        U.S. Consumer Products.    Net sales for the fourth quarter were $92.1 million, down 3.4 percent from $95.3 million in the prior year. Fourth-quarter total shipments were down 1.3 percent, compared with a 9-percent increase in the year-earlier period. Operating earnings were $11.3 million, down 8.1 percent from $12.3 million in the fourth quarter a year ago, due to the slightly lower volumes, and the impact of higher promotional and research-and-development expenses.

        For the 13 weeks ended Feb. 28, 2004, consumer take-away as measured by dollar volume for the company's U.S. Consumer Products business was down about 1 percent, reflecting softness in the potato side dish and pancake mix categories. Overall, retail distribution levels for the company's consumer brands were essentially even with the fourth quarter a year ago.

        "We were pleased with the performance of our Pillsbury and Martha White baking products brands in the quarter, with consumer take-away measured in dollar volume up 2.6 percent," Costley said. "We launched two new Pillsbury brownie mixes in January, and we are benefiting from the product improvement we made on our Pillsbury cake mix line earlier in the fiscal year."

        Foodservice Products.    Fourth-quarter net sales in Foodservice Products were $43.7 million, down about 17 percent from $52.6 million in the prior year. The decline in net sales was largely attributable to the planned rationalization of low-margin accounts and product lines, and lower baking mix volumes. Excluding unusual items, Foodservice Products had a net operating loss of $1.5 million, compared with operating earnings of $1.6 million a year ago. Fiscal 2004 fourth-quarter results were adversely affected by higher ingredient costs, principally for eggs, and by the lower volumes.

        Canadian Foods.    Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004 were $76.2 million, up 9.3 percent from $69.7 million a year ago. Excluding currency effects, sales were down approximately 6 percent. Increased shipment volumes in consumer flour, consumer pickles and export products were more than offset by volume declines in commercial and consumer baking mixes. In June, the company terminated its agreement with Aurora Foods to manufacture, market and sell Duncan Hines products in Canada, which resulted in the lower consumer baking mix volumes.

        Operating earnings before unusual items rose 9.8 percent to $4.5 million. This increase was driven primarily by supply-chain improvements in the company's condiments business.

        For the 12 weeks ended Feb. 21, 2004, consumer take-away in the company's flour business was up 2 percent. In pickles, consumer take-away declined about 2 percent, compared with strong results in last year's fourth quarter driven by the introduction of the company's new Bick's snack-sized pickles.

        During the quarter, the company entered into a preferred merchandising arrangement for its Robin Hood brand of flour with one of Canada's leading national grocery retailers.

        In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, the company recognized unusual items totaling $2.9 million pre-tax, $1.9 million after tax or 9 cents per diluted share, primarily for costs related to the organizational assessment conducted by Deloitte and to the proposed merger transaction with The J.M. Smucker Company. Also included in the $2.9 million of unusual items was approximately $600,000 of severance expense in the Foodservice Products and Canadian Foods segments.

        In addition to the fourth-quarter items noted above, the company's fiscal 2004 results include the following unusual and one-time items:

        Following is a reconciliation of fourth-quarter and full-year earnings per share excluding unusual and one-time items and discontinued operations to amounts reported under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This additional information is intended to help investors better assess and further analyze the company's performance, core results and underlying trends. Excluded items are considered to be of a non-operational nature in the applicable period.
