Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure.

In presentation materials recently filed with the Court as part of the Plan confirmation process, Kmart presented previously undisclosed unaudited information comparing its financial results for the two-month period ending March 26, 2003 to financial projections included in the disclosure statement previously filed with and approved by the Court. This information indicated the following: March year-to-date sales were $4,068 million versus plan of $4,010 million; March year-to-date gross margin was $873 million, as compared to plan of $709 million; March year-to-date EBITDA of $51 million exceeded plan which was ($133) million; March year-to-date free cash flow was $443 million versus plan of $205 million.

Certain of the above information reflects non-GAAP financial measures, as internally defined by Kmart’s management in assessing the Company’s financial performance. Set forth below is a reconciliation of such information to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

EBITDA	$	51
Changes in assets and liabilities		465
Cash paid for liquidator fees and expenses for closing store locations		(62	)
Interest and other		(18	)
Cash Flow from Operations	$	436
Internal Gross Margin	$	873
Accelerated depreciation on distribution facilities		(24	)
Gross Margin, as reported	$	849
Free Cash Flow	$	443
Cash Provided by Reorganization items, net		(10	)
Cash Used for Investing Activities		3

The foregoing results are preliminary in nature. The Company expects to file its March results in its Monthly Operating Report with the Bankruptcy Court later this month. Such information will also be furnished simultaneously on a Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
