Notes:

(1) Because of the seasonal nature of the retail business, the results of operations for the 13 weeks ended November 1, 2008 and November 3, 2007 (which do not include the Christmas season) are not necessarily indicative of such results for the fiscal year. The May Department Stores Company ("May") was acquired August 30, 2005.

(2) Merchandise inventories are primarily valued at the lower of cost or market using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) retail inventory method. Application of this method did not impact cost of sales for the 13 weeks ended November 1, 2008 or November 3, 2007.

(3) Represents costs and expenses associated with the division consolidation and localization initiatives, primarily severance and other human resource related costs. For the 13 weeks ended November 1, 2008, division consolidation costs amounted to $.02 per diluted share.

(4) Represents costs and expenses associated with the integration and consolidation of May's operations into Macy's operations, including additional costs related to closed locations, final system conversion costs and costs related to other operational consolidations. For the 13 weeks ended November 3, 2007, May integration costs amounted to $.02 per diluted share.

(5) Income taxes for the 13 weeks ended November 1, 2008 and November 3, 2007 reflect the adjustment or settlement of various tax issues.
