CATALINA MARKETING CORPORATION

Note 1. Description of the Business and Basis for Presentation

     Description of the Business. Catalina Marketing Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), provides behavior-based communications, developed and distributed for consumer packaged goods manufacturers, pharmaceutical manufacturers and marketers, and retailers. The Company’s primary business initially was developed to provide consumers with in-store coupons delivered based upon purchase behavior and distributed primarily in supermarkets. Today, the Company offers behavior-based, targeted-marketing services and programs globally through a variety of distribution channels. These marketing solutions, including discount coupons, loyalty marketing programs, pharmacist and patient education newsletters, compliance mailings, pharmacy counter mats, attitudinal research programs, sampling, advertising, in-store instant-win games and other consumer communications, are delivered directly to shoppers by various means. By specifying how a particular consumer transaction will “trigger” a promotion to print, manufacturers and retailers can deliver customized incentives and messages to only the consumers they wish to reach. The Company tracks actual purchase behavior and primarily uses Universal Product Code-based scanner technology to target consumers at the checkout counter and National Drug Code information to trigger delivery of a customized communication to consumers during pharmacy prescription checkout transactions.

     The Company is organized and managed by segments which include the following operations: Manufacturer Services, Catalina Health Resource (“CHR”), the international operations, which includes manufacturer services similar to those services provided in the United States (“International”), Retail Services, Japan Billboard, a billboard and outdoor media business operated in Japan (“Japan Billboard”), Direct Marketing Services (“DMS”) and Catalina Marketing Research Solutions (“CMRS”). The domestic operations of the Company include Manufacturer Services, CHR, Retail Services, DMS and CMRS. The international operations of the Company are organized and managed by country and include International and Japan Billboard. In November 2003, the Company announced its intent to divest of DMS, CMRS and Japan Billboard which were deemed not to be strategically aligned with the Company’s current core competencies. See further discussion in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on July 15, 2004.

     Manufacturer Services serves the needs of domestic consumer product manufacturers, primarily within the consumer packaged goods industry. Using the Catalina Marketing Network^®, this operating segment specializes in behavior-based marketing communications that are delivered at the point-of-sale. The primary service line of the Catalina Marketing Network^® is the in-store delivery of promotions at the checkout lane of a retailer, typically a supermarket. Catalina Marketing links its proprietary software, computers, central databases and thermal printers with a retailer’s point-of-sale controllers and scanners. The network prints customized promotions at the point-of-sale based on product Universal Product Codes or other scanned information. The printed promotions are handed to consumers by the cashier at the end of the shopping transaction.

     CHR’s services allow pharmaceutical and consumer packaged goods manufacturers, as well as retail pharmacies, to provide consumers with condition-specific health information and direct-to-patient communications. CHR’s primary product offerings use an in-store, prescription-based targeting technology to provide targeted, direct-to-patient communications on behalf of the Company’s clients. These communication services include messages and educational information to healthcare patients at the pharmacy level throughout the Health Resource Network. The Health Resource Network is a proprietary software system with built-in targeted response capabilities. Communications are primarily delivered to patients based on prescription medications purchased which are identified by a National Drug Code symbol. Clients are able to use these communications to provide information on a wide variety of products such as over-the-counter medicines, prescription medication and other healthcare remedies and merchandise. Communications provide clinically appropriate information while maintaining patient privacy.

     International operations include in-store electronic targeted marketing services for consumers in France, Italy, the United Kingdom and Japan. The Catalina Marketing Network® operates internationally in a similar manner as the domestic business. International offers a full range of targeted marketing solutions to consumer packaged goods manufacturers and enjoys relationships with major supermarket, hypermarket and other retailers. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2004, the Company expanded its behavior-based targeted marketing capabilities in Europe by launching a pilot test in Germany.

     Japan Billboard is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that operates a billboard and outdoor media business in Japan. Japan Billboard primarily owns and rents billboards which are displayed on rooftops or faces of

7

buildings in locations suitable for advertising. Advertising is sold either directly to a broad range of clients across multiple industries or through advertising agencies. In general, billboards are designed by and produced under the supervision of Japan Billboard. Upon completion and installation, the billboards are financed through third-party financing companies. Japan Billboard is required to make rental payments to building owners for the space on the rooftops and faces of buildings where the billboards are installed. Japan Billboard provides the maintenance for its billboards during the life of the applicable contract which generally ranges from three to five years.

     DMS provides services designed to reach consumers in their homes. DMS analyzes frequent shopper databases and identifies consumer lifestyle changes to develop strategic programs that meet multiple objectives for both brand manufacturers and retailers. These targeted direct mail programs are based on actual purchase behavior or consumer lifestyle changes. DMS provides services which enable manufacturers and retailers to influence the purchase patterns of targeted customers based on their actual purchase behavior and history. Clients use these services to support new product launches and line extensions, build loyalty to a brand and deliver timely messages to consumers.

     The Company’s Other segment includes Retail Services and CMRS. Retail Services provides innovative marketing solutions to retail chains nationwide and supports and maintains the Catalina Marketing Network^® used by Manufacturer Services. CMRS provides a wide range of traditional marketing research services, including tracking studies and customer satisfaction surveys, as well as proprietary research products that take advantage of behavioral data gathered throughout the Catalina Marketing Network^®.

     Previously Filed Financial Statements for Fiscal Years 2003, 2002 and 2001. We filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003 on May 17, 2004. In addition to our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, the filing included audited restatements of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 and unaudited restatements of information for the quarters ended June 30, 2002, September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002. Please refer to such filing for additional information regarding the background of such restatements and the content and effect of the changes included in the restated financial statements. See Note 4.

     Delay in Filing Our Annual Report and Quarterly Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2004. In June 2004, we announced our intent to delay the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. In addition, the Company was unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2003, September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2003, in a timely manner. As required, Catalina filed notifications of late filing with the SEC under Rule 12b-25 for these filings. The Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2004 on July 15, 2004. This filing was delayed because of the significant time and resources required to file the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2003, which was filed on May 17, 2004.

     The Company is filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 today and expects to file a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for each of the quarters ended December 31, 2003 and September 30, 2003 for fiscal year 2004 as soon as practical. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 is delinquent and is being filed after the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. This filing should not be confused with any report on Form 10-Q for a quarterly period of the Company’s fiscal year ending March 31, 2005. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, filed with the SEC on May 17, 2004, and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, filed with the SEC on July 15, 2004.

     In this Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2003, words such as “today,” “current” or “currently,” or phrases such as “as of the date hereof” or “as of the date of this report,” refer to the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed with the SEC.

     Basis of Presentation. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, except as disclosed herein, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2003, the results of its operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its changes in stockholders’ equity for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 have been included.

     The balance sheet at March 31, 2003 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information or notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that were reported for the remainder of the year ended March 31, 2004.

     The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly- owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of a variable interest entity from which the Company leases its headquarters facility in St. Petersburg, Florida. The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of this entity and, thus, has included the accounts of this entity in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46 (revised 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—An Interpretation of ARB No. 51.” The accounts of the wholly and majority owned foreign subsidiaries are included on a three-month lag, to facilitate the timing of the Company’s closing process.

Note 2. Stock Based Compensation

     The Company applies the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock-based employee compensation plans. Additionally, the Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure,” which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 148 allows for the continued use of the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for those plans. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions to stock-based employee compensation. Such disclosure is not necessarily indicative of the fair value of stock options that could be granted by the Company in future fiscal years or of the value of all options currently outstanding. The pro forma results were calculated with the use of the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Had compensation expense for these plans been recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the following pro forma amounts (in thousands, except per share data):

     Pro forma amounts include $0.4 million related to the purchase discount offered under the Purchase Plan for each of the three month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002.

     During the three months ended June 30, 2003, certain of the Company’s executives left the Company prior to exercising their options and, as a result, any unexercised options have been forfeited. The pro forma compensation expense for the first quarter of fiscal year 2004 shown in the table above includes a reversal of previously reported pro forma compensation expense of $3.9 million, net of a tax benefit of $2.4 million, related to these forfeited options.

Note 3. Accounting Standards Adopted During the Three Months Ended June 30, 2003

     SFAS No. 143. On April 1, 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” which requires the recognition of the fair value of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets when there is a legal obligation to incur such costs. Upon initial recognition of a liability, the cost is capitalized as part of the related asset and depreciated over the corresponding asset’s useful life.

     Upon adoption, the Company recorded a net increase in property and equipment of $0.7 million and recognized an asset retirement obligation of $2.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. This resulted in the recognition of a non-cash charge of $0.8 million, net of an income tax benefit of $0.6 million, which is reported as a cumulative effect of an accounting change in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. The effect of the adoption of SFAS No. 143 is associated with Japan Billboard’s contractual obligation to remove certain billboards upon termination or cancellation of the related financing agreement.

     If SFAS No. 143 had been adopted on April 1, 2001, the liabilities recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets would have been $2.0 million, $1.8 million and $2.0 million higher as of April 1, 2001, March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2003, respectively. The pro forma effect of the adoption of SFAS No. 143 on the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was not material.

     Reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of asset retirement obligation is as follows (in thousands):

     SFAS No. 150. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how a company classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity in its balance sheet. It requires that a company classify a financial instrument that is within the standard’s scope as a liability or as an asset in some circumstances. Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and, for financial instruments entered into prior to May 31, 2003, it is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of this Statement by the Company did not have a material effect on its operating results, financial position or cash flows.

Note 4. Restatement of Quarterly Financial Statement Information

     As discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2003, in Notes 3 and 18 to the consolidated financial statements included therein, the Company restated its financial statements for each of the quarters for fiscal year 2003 to reflect corrections primarily related to the timing of the recognition of certain revenues and adjustments to costs and expenses. The following table compares the restated results of operations of the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2002 with those amounts originally reported on Form 10-Q for that period (in thousands, except per share information).

11

Note 5. Net Income Per Common Share

     The following is a reconciliation of the denominator of basic earnings per share (EPS) to the denominator of diluted EPS (in thousands):

     Options to purchase 7,221,272 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $18.13 to $36.82 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2003, and 2,057,002 shares at exercise prices ranging from $33.46 to $36.82 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2002 were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for each period because their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of common stock during the relevant periods.

Note 6. Comprehensive Income (in thousands)

Note 7. Segment Information

     The Company is organized and managed by segments, as described in following table:

12

     Financial information for each of the Company’s reportable segments is presented in the following tables. Amounts for the three months ended June 30, 2002 are as restated (in thousands).
