ConAgra Foods Will Restate Financials Based on Audit Committee Investigation Of Its UAP Subsidiary

OMAHA, Neb., May 23 /PRNewswire/ -- ConAgra Foods, Inc. (NYSE: CAG) today announced that accounting and conduct matters at its United Agri Products Companies (UAP) subsidiary during fiscal years 1999 and 2000 will result in the restatement of the Company's financial results for those years. Certain accounting adjustments will also result in a restatement for fiscal 1998. The restatement will reduce revenues and earnings in fiscal years 1998, 1999 and 2000, and will increase revenues and earnings in fiscal 2001. UAP, which distributes seed, fertilizer and agricultural chemicals to agricultural growers, is one of three businesses in ConAgra Foods' agricultural products reporting segment and represented approximately 9% of ConAgra Foods' operating profit for the fiscal years 1998, 1999 and 2000.

The restatement is based upon the preliminary results of an investigation undertaken by ConAgra Foods and the Audit Committee of its Board of Directors. That investigation, and an informal inquiry by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, are continuing.
