THE TORO COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
APRIL 28, 1995
1. BACKGROUND
The information furnished reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods.
The Toro Company's business is seasonal. Operating results for the three
months and nine months ended April 28, 1995 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending July 31,
1995.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and footnotes included in the company's Annual Report for the
year ended July 31, 1994. The policies described in that report are used
in preparing quarterly reports.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total assets for the company as of April 28, 1995 were $592.5 million, an
increase of $62.2 million, or 11.7%, from the $530.3 million reported at the end
of the third quarter last year. The increase resulted primarily from increases
in trade receivables and inventory. The increase in trade receivables reflected
an increase in dealer receivables financed by the company as well as an increase
in sales volume. Inventory increased as a result of increased production of
riding products to meet anticipated demand and a reduction in walk power mower
shipments in response to excess retail inventory levels.
Total debt as of April 28, 1995 was $173.3 million, or $6.8 million greater than
the $166.5 million reported at the end of the third quarter last year. The
ratio of total debt to total capital of 46.2% has improved from the 50.4%
reported as of April 29, 1994. The lower debt ratio resulted from an increase
in equity as a result of 1995 earnings to date.
The business of the company is seasonal. Historically, accounts receivable
balances increase throughout the winter months as a result of extended payment
terms made available to customers and decrease in the late spring when payments
become due. Peak borrowing usually occurs in the third quarter. The seasonal
working capital requirements of the business are financed primarily with short-
term debt. Management believes that the combination of funds available through
existing financing options, coupled with forecasted cash flows, will provide the
capital resources necessary to meet the company's working capital requirements.

Changes in net sales for the third quarter and year to date were attributed to
the following factors. Consumer product sales reflected increased demand and
improved availability of riding products and increased sales of Toro brand walk
power mowers, especially the new Super Recycler-Registered Trademark- mower.
Year to date, exceptional sales of snow removal equipment as well as increased
sales of riding products and Toro brand walk power mowers attributed to the
increase over the prior year. Lawn-Boy walk power mower sales declined as a
result of reduced shipments in response to excess retail inventory as well as
a delayed spring season as a result of adverse weather patterns. The increase
in commercial product sales reflected continued strength in the golf and
tax-supported markets. Sales of equipment to landscape contractors as well as
the addition of recycling equipment products in 1995 also contributed to the
increase. The irrigation product sales increase reflected continued growth in
the golf, commercial and residential markets as well as the positive impact of
a distribution change implemented by the company last year. International
sales for the quarter reflected a decline in commercial products as a result of
a shift in the timing of customer requirements which was partially offset by
continued strong sales of consumer products. On a year to date basis
international sales increased because of rebounding economies which resulted in
increased golf course irrigation equipment sales as well as increased sales of
walk power mowers, snow removal equipment and riding products.
Gross profit of $107.3 million was $9.6 million (9.8%) higher than the $97.7
million reported for the third quarter of 1994. As a percent of sales, gross
profit decreased slightly to 34.6% for the third quarter of 1995 compared to
35.3% for the third quarter last year as the company continued to incur
increases in the cost of certain raw materials. Year to date gross profit was
$259.5 million, $46.2 million (21.7%) higher than the $213.3 million reported
last year. The dollar increase is attributed to increased sales volume and a
favorable product mix which was offset partially by an increase in the cost of
certain raw materials such as aluminum ingot and raw steel.
Selling, general and administrative (S G & A) expense increased $5.4 million, or
7.6%, to $76.2 million from the $70.8 million for the third quarter last year.
Year to date S G & A of $202.9 million increased $23.3 million from the $179.6
million reported a year ago. As a percent of sales, year to date S G & A
decreased to 27.8% compared to 29.9% for the prior year. The dollar increases
occurred principally as a result of increased marketing expenditures, a company-
wide initiative to replace existing information systems, the addition of a joint
venture with a distributor and the establishment of recycling equipment
products, distribution enhancement and support, increased product development
and various employee incentive programs.
Interest expense of $3.4 million for the quarter was $0.2 million, or 5.6%, less
than the $3.6 million the same period last year. Year to date interest expense
decreased $1.7 million to $8.5 million from the $10.2 million reported a year
ago. These decreases are principally because of the reduction in long-term
debt.
Other income, net decreased $1.2 million to $1.6 million from $2.8 million from
the third quarter last year. Excluding the effect of a patent infringement
lawsuit settlement and the sale of the portable heater business in the third
quarter last year, other income, net would have increased $1.8 million because
of income resulting from joint venture activity and foreign currency exchange
gains. Year to date other income, net of $6.3 million is $0.6 million lower
than the $6.9 million reported a year ago. Excluding the effect of two lawsuit
settlements and the sale of the portable heater business in the prior year,
other income, net would have increased $4.4 million because of increased finance
revenue, foreign currency exchange gains and income resulting from joint venture
activity.
