NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

(Tabular amounts in thousands)

Note A – Basis of Presentation

Office Depot, Inc., including consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is the world’s largest seller of office products and services. Fiscal years are based on a 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday in December. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 29, 2001 has been derived from audited financial statements at that date. The condensed interim financial statements as of June 29, 2002 and for the 13- and 26-week periods ending June 29, 2002 (also referred to as “the second quarter of 2002” and “the first half of 2002,” respectively) and June 30, 2001 (also referred to as “the second quarter of 2001” and “the first half of 2001”) are unaudited. However, in our opinion, these financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring items) necessary to provide a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that should be expected for the full year. For a better understanding of the Company and its financial statements, we recommend reading these condensed interim financial statements in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 29, 2001, which are included in our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on March 19, 2002.

      Second Quarter   First Half
     
 
      2002   2001   2002   2001

In 2001, the board of directors approved common stock repurchases of up to $50 million per year, subject to annual approval. During the second quarter of 2002, the Company repurchased 615,300 shares at a total cost of $11.7 million plus commissions. Purchases for the first half of 2002 totaled 1,295,228 shares at a cost of $23.8 million plus commissions.

Note D – Long-Term Debt

On April 24, 2002, the Company replaced its 364-day credit agreement, domestic credit facility, and its yen facilities with a single credit facility through a syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other lenders. This new revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) provides for borrowings in the aggregate amount of $600 million, including up to $150 million for issuance of standby and trade letters of credit. The New Credit Facility is a 3-year, unsecured revolving credit facility maturing on April 24, 2005. The New Credit Facility has the availability for U.S. dollar borrowings up to the full amount of the facility, and for yen borrowings up to an equivalent of $100 million U.S. dollars. Borrowings will bear interest at a benchmark variable rate plus a spread determined at the time of usage. For U.S. dollar borrowings, interest will be based on the then-current London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR). For international borrowings, interest will be based on the then-current Eurocurrency rate. The benchmark rates can be specified by the Company for periods of one, two, three or six months. Based on the Company’s current credit ratings, all borrowings would include a spread of 0.925%. The covenants contained in the New Credit Facility are similar to those in the credit facilities existing as of March 30, 2002.

As of June 29, 2002, the New Credit Facility had outstanding yen borrowings equivalent to $81.7 million, which had an average effective interest rate of 1.05%, and outstanding letters of credit totaling $41.3 million.
