  2. Executive Summary Winn-Dixie is in very serious financial trouble. The company has secured funding from a substantial loan tied to their filing of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy and has a plan of action to reorganize the company outlined in Peter Lynch’s letter to the shareholders. Peter Lynch is the new Chief Executive Officer for Winn-Dixie. In his letter to the shareholders he outlines his plan for reorganizing Winn-Dixie and decreases the company’s expenses/losses. Although Lynch’s letter is reassuring and nearly inspiring, the numbers speak for themselves. The financial statements for Winn-Dixie reveal a very vulnerable company with an uncertain future as a result of very significant loss in the past couple years. Winn-Dixie shareholders are holding stock that is not a stable investment, with the companies uncertain future, but the value of the stock is so low that it is not worth selling. The gamble of whether or not Winn-Dixie will be able to turn things around is more valuable, in my opinion, than selling off the stock at its current value. I would not advise anyone to buy any shares unless some time has elapsed and we see numbers with a trend moving out of the red in upcoming quarterly and annual reports. WINN-DIXIE STORES, INC.

  3. Introduction • Peter Lynch serves as President and Chief Executive Officer • Corporate Headquarters: Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. P.O. Box B Jacksonville, Florida 32203-0297 • Analysis based on fiscal year ending June 30, 2005 • Principal products/services: Substantially all stores offer grocery, meat, seafood, produce, deli, bakery, floral, health and beauty and other general merchandise items. Most stores include a pharmacy, and many stores offer photo labs and other special service departments. Winn-Dixie has 66 liquor stores and 25 fuel centers at it’s stores as of June 29, 2005. • Main geographic area of activity: Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and the Bahamas

  4. Audit Report • Audit performed by independent audit firm KPMG LLP, Jacksonville, Florida • In the auditors report the uncertainty of the companies future is clear. Winn-Dixie filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code. The financial statements do not reflect nor provide for the consequences of the bankruptcy proceedings. The auditors very delicately say that with the bankruptcy substantial changes in ownership are necessary. It is very clear the company’s future is “a going concern” with “substantial doubt” in the company’s ability to continue. Auditor's Report

  5. Stock Market Information • Company stock price, 0.63 • 52-Week Range (Low – High) 0.07 – 5.05 • Dividends per share, N/A • Date of above data, 10/31/05 • If I were a shareholder of Winn-Dixie stock I would hold my shares. The value of the shares is so low that it is not worth selling at this time. I would not buy any stock given there is no dividend earnings for shareholders and the uncertainty of the company’s future. But by holding there is the possibility of the value increasing in some time if the plans to improve Winn-Dixie’s current state are successful in the future. Winn-Dixie is not a stable or profitable investment currently.

  6. Industry Situation and Company Plans In addition to filing for reorganization under Ch. 11 Bankruptcy, Winn-Dixie has changed leadership. Former President and Chief Executive Officer, Frank Lazaran, was replaced by current President and Chief Executive Officer, Peter Lynch, in December 2004. Peter Lynch came to Winn-Dixie from Albertson’s, Inc. after 30 years in the grocery business working with companies that faced similar challenges as Winn-Dixie’s. Lynch acknowledges Winn-Dixie’s problems/challenges and has a plan to improve the company’s state. The supermarket industry is a good industry in regards to future needs of consumers. However, Winn-Dixie supermarkets have a tarnished brand in the public eye and have a great challenge to improve their image/brand while undergoing major restructuring and it’s recent filing of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy while trying to stay afloat and continue.

  7. Company Plans • First step, obtained $800 million debtor-in-possession credit facility to provide company with liquidity during restructuring • Restructuring operations: completing the sale or closure of stores in 14 Designated Market Areas (DMAs) and 3 distribution centers. • Completion of this transition to downsize will take $100 million of expense out of the business, leaving Winn-Dixie with 60,000 Associates in 23 DMAs in five states and in the Bahamas US Securites and Exchange Commission Form 10-K

  8. Company Plans • Attract new customers: make improvements in each dept. beginning with perishables • Higher quality from the field to the table • Reviving the meat dept. to live up to the legacy • Winn-Dixie has been known as The Beef People • Getting better all the time • Continue through remaining perishable depts. then focusing on Center Store • Image: cleaning up the stores, reducing clutter, repairing and polishing the floors, and straightening up the shelves. Ensuring in stock every day. Peter Lynch's plan

  9. Income Statement Winn-Dixie has experienced substantial losses from 2003 to 2005; the most substantial being from 2004 to 2005 with more than half a million dollars in loss. Multi-step format *Amounts in thousands

  10. Balance Sheet Winn-Dixie has over a half a million dollar difference less in assets in 2005 while liabilities are up $226,466 since 2004. Stockholder’s Equity changed the most, down $858,051 from 2004 to 2005. 2005 2004 Assets = Liabilities + SE

  11. Statement of Cash Flows • Cash flows from operations are less than net income in 2005 and 2004. • Winn-Dixie is down-sizing by selling and auctioning property and plants in order to reduce and manage it’s losses. • Winn-Dixie’s main source of financing is currently an $800 million debtor-in-possession credit facility. • Overall cash has decreased significantly over the past two years. Winn-Dixie experienced significant net losses and decline in liquidity by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005. Following this announcement and subsequent downgrades from the major debt rating agencies, the Company experienced a tightening of trade credit by many of its vendors and its primary bank eliminated its incoming and outgoing Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) float, both of which further reduced its liquidity.

  12. Accounting Policies • Merchandise inventories, primarily non-perishable merchandise in stores and distribution centers is determined using the LIFO method. • Manufacturing, pharmacy, produce, and deli inventories are valued using the FIFO method. • Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost. Interest costs on construction projects are capitalized as part of the costs of the newly constructed facilities. Depreciation expense is calculated by the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. Store equip. depreciation is based on lives from 5 to 8 years. Transportation equip. depreciation is based on lives from 3 to 10 years. Distribution and manufacturing equip. depreciation is based on lives from 5 to 10 years. Amortization of improvements to leased premises is provide mainly by the straight-line method over the terms of the leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is less.
