NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Six Months Ended June 30, 2005

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2005, and the condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2005, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2005, have been prepared by 7-Eleven, Inc. (the “Company”) without audit. The reported results of operations include the operations of more than 5,800 convenience stores that are operated or franchised in the United States and Canada by the Company along with royalty income from worldwide 7-Eleven area licensees. The Company has included the assets, liabilities, equity and results of operations of its franchise stores in its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2005, and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. Intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current-period presentation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004, is derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, include accounting policies and additional information pertinent to an understanding of both the December 31, 2004, balance sheet and the interim financial statements. The information has not changed except as a result of normal transactions in the six months ended June 30, 2005, and as discussed in the notes herein.

NOTE 2 - RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In connection with the December 31, 2004, year-end reporting, the Company reviewed its lease accounting and leasehold depreciation policies and determined it was appropriate to restate its previously issued financial statements. Historically, the Company had been amortizing certain leasehold improvements on operating leases over periods that extended beyond the term of the lease. The Company has revised its accounting and restated its previously issued financial statements to adjust the amortization expense of certain of its leasehold improvements to be the shorter of the economic useful life or the lease term as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 13, “Accounting for Leases.”

As a result of the restatements above, the Company has recorded increases of $1.2 million and $2.4 million to operating, selling, general and administrative (“OSG&A”) expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The effects of this restatement were as follows (in thousands, except per-share data):


	Three Months Ended June 30, 2004					Six Months Ended June 30, 2004
	Impact of Restatement			As Restated		Impact of Restatement			As Restated
OSG&A	$	1,187		$	753,336	$	2,376		$	1,447,423
Earnings from continuing operations before income tax expense and cumulative effect of accounting change		(1,187	)		76,052		(2,376	)		92,789
Income tax expense		(439	)		28,732		(903	)		35,259
Earnings from continuing operations before cumulative effect of accounting change		(748	)		47,320		(1,473	)		57,530
Net earnings		(748	)		46,968		(1,473	)		51,021
Basic EPS		(.01	)		.42		(.01	)		.46
Diluted EPS		(.01	)		.38		(.01	)		.43

This restatement had no impact on the Company’s cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities.

NOTE 3 - EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

In April 2005, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, which provides for the issuance of various types of equity-based awards including stock options, restricted stock, performance shares, stock appreciation rights and bonus stock awards. In 2005, the Company granted stock options under both its 2005 Stock Incentive Plan and its 1995 Stock Incentive Plan (collectively, “Stock Incentive Plans”) and its Stock Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Non-Employee Directors’ Plan”). The fair value of each option grant under the Stock Incentive Plans and the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for the options granted: expected life of three years, no dividend yield, risk-free interest rates of 2.28% and 3.70% and expected volatility of 46.30% and 31.48% for the options granted in 2004 and 2005, respectively.

The Company has recognized no compensation expense for its stock options as it is accounting for the Stock Incentive Plans and the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” If compensation expense had been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards under these plans consistent with the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” the Company’s net earnings and net earnings per common share for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2005, would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated in the following table (in thousands, except per-share data):


	Three Months Ended June 30						Six Months Ended June 30
	2004			2005			2004			2005
Net earnings as reported	$	46,968		$	57,164		$	51,021		$	78,104
Add: Stock-based compensation expense included in reported net earnings, net of tax		1,006			2,574			1,400			3,718
Less: Total stock-based compensation expense determined under the fair-value-based method for all stock-based awards, net of tax		(2,422	)		(3,781	)		(4,223	)		(6,148	)

Pro forma net earnings	$	45,552		$	55,957		$	48,198		$	75,674

Net earnings per common share as reported
Basic	$	42		$	50		$	46		$	68
Diluted		.38			.45			.43			.63
Pro forma net earnings per common share
Basic	$	41		$	49		$	43		$	66
Diluted		.38			.44			.41			.61

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” which was issued in December 2004, and will modify its accounting for stock options and other awards under its Stock Incentive Plans and its Non-Employee Directors’ Plan accordingly (see Note 10).

In addition to the disability and life insurance coverage available to all full-time employees of the Company, the EPP participants are eligible for supplemental disability benefits and life insurance coverage before they retire. After they retire, they are eligible for the postretirement income benefits of the EPP.

No EPP assets have been accumulated as the Company funds its costs on a cash basis. The following information on the Company’s EPP is provided (in thousands):

NOTE 6 - STORE CLOSINGS, ASSET IMPAIRMENT AND ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The results of operations of owned stores are presented as discontinued operations beginning in the quarter in which management commits to a plan to close the related store and actively markets the store. The results of operations of a leased store are presented as discontinued operations beginning in the quarter in which the related store ceases operations. The results of operations include related writedowns of stores to estimated net realizable value and accruals for future estimated rent and other expenses in excess of estimated sublease rental income. The Company does not allocate interest expense to discontinued operations. Amounts related to discontinued operations of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to discontinued operations of the current period in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

The stores presented as discontinued operations had total revenues and pretax earnings (loss) as follows for the periods presented (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended June 30						Six Months Ended June 30
	2004			2005			2004			2005
Total revenue	$	16,422		$	2,440		$	33,206		$	5,122
Pretax earnings (loss)		(540	)		(2,039	)		(2,212	)		474

Included in the earnings (loss) on discontinued operations is a gain on disposal of $1.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. Gains (losses) on disposal for the three-month period ended June 30, 2005, as well as for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004, were immaterial. Included in other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets are $6.3 million and $4.7 million in assets held for sale as of December 31, 2004 and June 30, 2005, respectively.

NOTE 7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In May 2002, a financial-services subsidiary of Seven-Eleven Japan Co., Ltd. (“SEJ”) made a personal loan of 227.5 million Japanese yen (approximately $1.75 million) to one of the Company’s non-employee directors. The interest rate of the loan was 1.55%. On August 2, 2005, the loan was repaid in full.

In February 2005, Ito-Yokado Co., Ltd. (“IY”) sold to SEJ (i) its 51% ownership interest in IYG Holding Company (“IYG”) and (ii) the additional 3,315,859 shares of the Company’s common stock that IY, as shareholder of record, had acquired in 2003. This transaction between IY and SEJ does not impact the Company. As a result of this transaction, SEJ, directly and through its 100% ownership interest in IYG, owns approximately 73% of the Company’s common stock.

In April 2005, IY announced its intention to form a holding company, Seven & I Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Seven & I Holdings”) for the purpose of acquiring all of the outstanding shares of IY and two of IY’s majority-owned affiliates, SEJ and Denny’s Japan Co., Ltd. The transaction will result in IY, SEJ and Denny’s Japan Co., Ltd. becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of Seven & I Holdings. The transaction has been approved by the shareholders of all three companies and is scheduled to be completed on September 1, 2005.

As the Company has previously disclosed, IY has fully and unconditionally guaranteed all commercial paper issued by the Company through 2006. On April 22, 2005, following IY’s announcement of its plans to form Seven & I Holdings, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services placed its rating of the Company’s commercial paper on CreditWatch with negative implications. Standard & Poor’s stated that its action reflects the uncertainty over the guarantor in the new holding company structure. In addition, Standard & Poor’s stated that it would remove the rating of the Company’s commercial paper from CreditWatch after the guarantor under the new holding company arrangement is confirmed. It is the Company’s expectation that following the reorganization of IY with its majority owned affiliates, the commercial paper guarantee will be provided by either Seven & I Holdings or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries and that the rating of the commercial paper will be comparable to the rating in place prior to the announcement of the ownership change.

Stock options for 1.6 million shares of common stock for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004, have exercise prices that are greater than the average market price of the common shares for each period. Therefore, these shares have not been included in diluted earnings-per-share calculations as they have an anti-dilutive effect.

NOTE 9 - McLANE AGREEMENT

In April 2005, the Company signed an amendment to its service agreement with McLane Company, Inc. (“McLane”) that extends the service agreement for an additional two years. Certain components of the amendment were retroactive to January 1, 2005, while other service requirements will not take effect until the third quarter of 2005. The existing service agreement, under which McLane provides its distribution services to 7-ELEVEN^{^®} stores and designated combined distribution centers in the United States, was set to expire in January 2006. The amendment extends the term of the agreement through January 2008.

NOTE 10 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,” which applies to (i) all voluntary changes in accounting principle and (ii) all changes required by a new accounting pronouncement where no specific transition provisions are included. SFAS No. 154 replaces APB Opinion 20, “Accounting Changes,” and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” SFAS No. 154 requires companies to apply the direct effects of a change in accounting principle retrospectively to prior periods’ financial statements unless impracticable. APB Opinion No. 20 required companies to recognize most voluntary changes in accounting principle by including the cumulative effect of the change in net income of the period in which the change was made. SFAS No. 154 redefines “restatement” as the revising of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of an error. SFAS No. 154 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 154 effective January 1, 2006. The Company does not expect that its adoption of SFAS No. 154 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (“SFAS 123R”), which revises SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS 123R establishes standards for accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. The primary focus of SFAS 123R is on employee services obtained in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R requires that all share-based payments to employees be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values as determined by an option-pricing model as of the grant date of the award. The cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. The implementation guidance of SFAS 123R requires that a company elect a transition method to be used at the date of adoption. The transition methods include both prospective and retrospective options for adopting. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested awards at the beginning of the first period of adoption of SFAS 123R, while the retrospective methods require that compensation expense for all unvested awards be recorded beginning with the first period restated.

When SFAS 123R was issued in December 2004, its effective date for compliance was the first reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. However, in April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a new rule that amends the effective date of SFAS 123R such that implementation will not be required until the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005.

The Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS 123R effective January 1, 2006. It intends to elect the retrospective transition method with all prior periods presented restated to include expense previously calculated under SFAS No. 123 for pro forma footnote disclosures. Based on its currently outstanding option grants and its estimated option grants for 2006, the Company anticipates that adopting SFAS 123R will have an after-tax impact of approximately $6 million to $7 million on its earnings from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2006.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To Board of Directors and

Shareholders of 7-Eleven, Inc.:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of 7-Eleven, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2005, and the related condensed consolidated statements of earnings for each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholder’s equity and cash flows for the year then ended, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 and the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004; and in our report dated March 15, 2005, which included an explanatory paragraph for the adoption of newly issued accounting standards in 2002, 2003 and 2004, and an explanatory paragraph referencing Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements whereby the Company has restated its 2003 and 2002 financial statements, we expressed unqualified opinions thereon. The consolidated financial statements and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting referred to above are not presented herein. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

As discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated its 2004 financial statements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This report includes certain statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statement in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be a forward-looking statement. We often use these types of statements when discussing our plans and strategies, our anticipation of revenues from designated markets and statements regarding the development of our businesses, the markets for our services and products, our anticipated capital expenditures, operations, support systems, changes in regulatory requirements and other statements contained in this report regarding matters that are not historical facts. When used in this report, the words “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate” and other similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that: (i) we have correctly measured or identified all of the factors affecting us or the extent of their likely impact; (ii) the publicly available information with respect to these factors on which our analysis is based is complete or accurate; (iii) our analysis is correct; or (iv) our strategy, which is based in part on this analysis, will be successful. We do not assume any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

OVERVIEW

We are the world’s largest operator, franchisor and licensor of convenience stores with approximately 28,500 stores worldwide. We derive our revenues principally from retail sales of merchandise and gasoline from company- and franchisee-operated stores, which represent more than 5,800 of our total convenience stores. We also receive monthly royalty income based on underlying sales from licensed stores, which are predominantly international. Our primary expenses consist of cost of goods; operating, selling, general and administrative expenses; interest expense and income taxes.

We seek to meet the needs of convenience customers and maintain a leadership position in the convenience store industry through leveraging our scale, technology, people and widely recognized brand. In 2005, we will continue to focus on the implementation of our key growth initiatives to improve the operating performance of our Company.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In connection with the December 31, 2004, year-end reporting, we reviewed our lease accounting and leasehold depreciation policies and determined it was appropriate to restate our previously issued financial statements. Historically, we had been amortizing certain leasehold improvements on operating leases over periods that extended beyond the term of the lease. We have revised our accounting and restated our previously issued financial statements to adjust the amortization expense of certain of our leasehold improvements to be the shorter of the economic useful life or the lease term as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 13, “Accounting for Leases.”

As a result of these restatements, we recorded increases of $1.2 million and $2.4 million to operating, selling, general and administrative (“OSG&A”) expense for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Total costs and expenses, earnings from continuing operations before income tax expense and

cumulative effect of accounting change, earnings from continuing operations before cumulative effect of accounting change and net earnings were also adjusted. These restatements had no impact on our cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005

TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004

As noted above and in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we restated our previously issued financial statements to adjust the amortization expense of our leasehold improvements. We have reclassified amounts relating to prior-year results of operations of certain owned and leased stores that are presented as discontinued operations to conform to the current-year presentation for all periods presented.

	5,814	$	2,022.6		$	2,153.6		$	131.0		6.5	%

The U.S. same-store merchandise sales increase of 5.0% for 2005 is on top of a 7.1% increase for 2004. When determining the same-store merchandise sales calculation, we include the merchandise sales of both U.S. company-owned and franchisee-operated stores if they were operating for all days of the periods being compared. New stores, relocated stores or rebuilt stores are not included in the same-store sales calculation until they have recorded merchandise sales for all days of the periods being compared. Continued improvement in U.S. same-store merchandise sales reflects the ongoing implementation of our strategic initiatives and consistent introduction of new products. The key contributors to the merchandise sales growth for the three months ended June 30, 2005, were increases in fresh foods, hot and cold beverages, cigarettes and services. Vcom commissions increased as a result of a change in check-cashing partners in April 2004. In order to increase customer awareness of the check-cashing changes, we offered promotional rates for check-cashing services during the three months ended June 30, 2004.

Gasoline Sales

Average retail price per gallon	$	1.95		$	2.22			.27	13.8	%

We attribute the increase in gasoline sales in 2005 to the 27 cent-per-gallon increase in the average retail price of gasoline.

Primary contributors to the $57.3 million increase include the impact of the acquisition of the ATM business in August 2004, hot and cold beverages, fresh foods and cigarettes. Primary contributors to the gross profit margin increase include the impact of the ATM business acquisition, cold beverages and beer.

Gasoline Gross Profit


	Three Months Ended June 30
	2004			2005			Increase / (Decrease)			Percentage Change
Gasoline gross profit (in millions)	$	91.2		$	90.9		$	(0.3	)	(0.4	)%
Gross profit margin		8.40	%		7.30	%
Gross profit margin cents per gallon		16.4			16.2			(0.2	)	(1.2	)%

We manage retail gasoline prices through a centralized monitoring process to minimize the effect of gasoline margin volatility and maximize our gross profit per gallon. Increases or decreases in the wholesale cost of gasoline will generally cause similar increases or decreases in the retail price of gasoline. An increase in the wholesale cost of gasoline generally results in higher retail prices within five to 10 days after the cost increase. Conversely, a decrease in the wholesale cost of gasoline generally results in lower retail prices within 15 to 20 days after the cost decrease. Competitive conditions in the retail marketplace can cause these time periods to vary considerably on a market-by-market basis, which can have a significant impact on gasoline gross profit margin.

We actively manage our gasoline business by location. In spite of the record wholesale prices in the second quarter of 2005, we achieved a gasoline gross profit of 16.2 cents per gallon, which was basically flat from the same period in 2004.

Other Income

Other income consists primarily of area license royalties, Vcom fees and initial franchise fees. Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2005, was $29.4 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or

10.4%, from $32.8 million in 2004. Royalty income from our area licensees for the three months ended June 30, 2005, was $14.9 million compared to $15.7 million for the same period in 2004. The decrease was primarily due to the $2.0 million license fee received in 2004 from the new Beijing license agreement, partially offset by the increase in license fees resulting from more stores under licensing agreements in 2005. Franchise fees increased $1.9 million to $6.9 million for 2005, which was due to the increase in the number of new franchisees. Vcom fee income was $5.1 million during the second quarter of 2005 compared to $10.2 million for the same period in 2004. The decrease of $5.1 million primarily resulted from the recognition of deferred income from a Vcom agreement in the three months ended June 30, 2004.

OSG&A Expense

The components of OSG&A expense are as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30
*(in millions)*	2004		2005		Increase / (Decrease)		Percentage Change
Company OSG&A expense	$	536.6	$	556.0	$	19.4	3.6	%
Franchisee OSG&A expense		216.7		233.2		16.5	7.6	%

	$	753.3	$	789.2	$	35.9	4.8	%

The ratio of total OSG&A to revenues decreased to 23.0% in 2005 from 24.0% in 2004.

Company OSG&A Expense -The primary contributors to the increase in Company OSG&A expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005, were increases of $16.7 million in occupancy cost, $6.1 million in Vcom and ATM cash management costs, and $3.0 million in credit card processing fees, offset in part by a $4.3 million decrease in advertising expense. The increase in occupancy costs was largely a result of the acquisition of the ATM business in August 2004. The increase in Vcom and ATM cash management costs was primarily due to cash replenishment and other fees. The increase in credit card processing fees was the result of higher dollar volume, primarily from the increase in retail gasoline prices. The decrease in advertising expense was primarily due to the new franchise agreement which requires franchisees to contribute to advertising expenditures. Included in Company OSG&A for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 was a $3.7 million and $5.4 million currency conversion gain, respectively.

Franchisee OSG&A Expense – The primary contributors to the increase in Franchisee OSG&A were increases of $11.0 million in compensation expense and $3.3 million in advertising expense. The increase in compensation expense was driven by an increase in the number of franchised stores. Advertising expense increased as a result of the new franchise agreement mentioned above.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005, was $14.1 million, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 10.8%, from $15.8 million in 2004. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower debt balances as of June 30, 2005, compared to June 30, 2004.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005, was $37.0 million, an increase of $8.3 million from $28.7 million in 2004. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2005, was 38.8% compared to 37.8% for the same period in 2004. The increases are primarily the result of higher earnings in 2005 combined with the tax benefit received in 2004 from the sale of Cityplace.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2005, resulted in a loss of $1.2 million (net of $791,000 income tax benefit) compared to a loss of $352,000 (net of $188,000 income tax benefit) for the same period in 2004. The stores included in discontinued operations had total revenues of $2.4 million and $16.4 million and pretax operating losses of $2.0 million and pretax operating loss of $540,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The losses on disposal for the three-month periods ending June 30, 2005 and 2004 were immaterial.

The U.S. same-store merchandise sales increase of 4.3% for 2005 is on top of a 6.6% increase for 2004. The key contributors to the merchandise sales growth for the six months ended June 30, 2005, were increases in fresh foods, hot and cold beverages, cigarettes and services. Vcom commissions increased primarily as a result of the new check-cashing arrangement entered into in April 2004.

Over the last 12 years, our annual gasoline gross profit margins on a cent-per-gallon basis have remained comparatively stable around or above the 13 cent-per-gallon level.

Other Income

Other income consists primarily of area license royalties, Vcom fees and initial franchise fees. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2005, was $57.6 million, a decrease of $6.3 million, or 9.9%, from $63.9 million in 2004. Royalty income from our area licensees remained basically flat at $29.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. Franchise fees increased $4.0 million to $13.0 million for 2005 as a result of higher average franchise fees charged and an increase in the number of new franchisees for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. Vcom fee income decreased $11.9 million to $10.2 million for the first six months of 2005. This decrease resulted from the recognition of deferred income from certain Vcom agreements in the six months ended June 30, 2004.

OSG&A Expense

The components of OSG&A expense are as follows:


	Six Months Ended June 30
*(in millions)*	2004		2005		Increase / (Decrease)		Percentage Change
Company OSG&A expense	$	1,044.3	$	1,081.5	$	37.2	3.6	%

	$	1,447.4	$	1,510.8	$	63.4	4.4	%

The ratio of total OSG&A to revenues decreased to 23.6% in 2005 from 24.6% in 2004.

Company OSG&A Expense – The primary contributors to the increase in Company OSG&A expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005, were increases of $32.4 million in occupancy cost, $13.8 million in Vcom and ATM cash management costs, and $6.9 million in credit card processing fees, offset in part by a decrease of $9.2 million in advertising expense and the currency conversion gain discussed below. The increase in occupancy costs was largely a result of the acquisition of the ATM business in August 2004. The increase in Vcom and ATM cash management costs was primarily due to cash replenishment and other fees. The increase in credit card processing fees was the result of higher dollar volume, primarily from the increase in retail gasoline prices. Advertising expense decreased as a result of the new franchise agreement established in 2004 that requires franchisees to contribute to advertising expenditures. Included in Company OSG&A were currency conversion gains of $9.3 million and $1.1 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Franchisee OSG&A Expense – The primary contributors to the increase in Franchisee OSG&A were increases of $13.6 million in compensation expense and $8.6 million in advertising expense. The increase in compensation expense was driven by an increase in the number of franchised stores. Advertising expense increased as a result of the new franchise agreement.

Interest Expense, Net

Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005, was $28.5 million, a decrease of $7.4 million, or 20.7%, from $35.9 million in 2004. The decrease was primarily attributable to the retirement of the Cityplace Term Loan in April 2004, the expiration of our interest-rate swaps in February 2004 and the retirement of synthetic lease debt in October 2004.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005, was $49.3 million, an increase of $14.0 million from $35.3 million in 2004. The increase is primarily the result of higher earnings and a higher effective tax rate of 38.8% compared to 38.0% in 2004.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005, resulted in a gain of $290,000 (net of $184,000 income tax expense) compared to a loss of $1.4 million (net of $841,000 income tax benefit) for the same period in 2004. The stores included in discontinued operations had total revenues of $5.1 million and $33.2 million and pretax operating gain of $474,000 and pretax operating loss of $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Included in the earnings (loss) on discontinued operations is a gain on disposal of $1.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. The loss on disposal for the same period in 2004 was immaterial.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

Effective January 1, 2004, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities – an Interpretation of ARB No. 51 (revised December 2003),” which resulted in a one-time charge of $5.1 million, net of deferred tax benefit, related to the cumulative effect of the accounting change resulting from the consolidation of our franchisees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We obtain the majority of our working capital from these sources:

•

Cash flows generated from our operating activities;

•

A $650 million commercial paper facility, guaranteed by Ito-Yokado Co., Ltd. (“IY”); and

•

Borrowings of up to $200 million under our revolving credit facility.

We believe that operating activities and available working capital sources will provide sufficient liquidity in 2005 to fund our operating costs, capital expenditures and debt service. In addition, we intend to continue accessing the leasing market to finance our new stores.

We anticipate that our capital expenditures for 2005, excluding lease commitments, will be within a range of $390 million to $430 million. Anticipated capital expenditures for 2005 are expected to include the areas of new stores, information technology and maintenance. We plan to open approximately 100 stores in 2005.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005, was $144.3 million compared to $213.8 million for the same period in 2004, a decrease of $69.5 million. We attribute this decrease to changes in working capital items, primarily attributed to the timing of payments for merchandise, lottery, Vcom settlements and gasoline.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005, was $134.6 million, a decrease of $183.4 million from $48.8 million of net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The primary drivers of the decrease were the net proceeds of $122.4 million from the sale of Cityplace in April of 2004 and an increase of $48.9 million in capital expenditures during the first six months of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $900,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to $349.0 million for the same period in 2004. Net payments under commercial paper and revolving credit facilities totaled $12.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, compared to $113.6 million for the same time-period in 2004. Principal payments under long-term debt agreements were $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to $218.9 million for the same period in 2004, a decrease of $208.5 million. Included in this decrease is a payment of $205.7 million for the retirement of the Cityplace Term Loan in April of 2004.

OTHER ISSUES

Related Party Transactions

In February 2005, IY sold to Seven-Eleven Japan Co., Ltd. (“SEJ”) (i) its 51% ownership interest in IYG Holding Company (“IYG”) and (ii) the additional 3,315,859 shares of our common stock that IY, as shareholder of record, had acquired in 2003. This transaction between IY and SEJ does not impact us. As a result of this transaction, SEJ, directly and through its 100% ownership interest in IYG, owns approximately 73% of our common stock.

As we have previously disclosed, IY has fully and unconditionally guaranteed all commercial paper issued by us through 2006. On April 22, 2005, following IY’s announcement of its plans to form Seven & I Holdings, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services placed its rating of our commercial paper on CreditWatch with negative implications. Standard & Poor’s stated that its action reflects the uncertainty over the guarantor in the new holding company structure. In addition, Standard & Poor’s stated that it would remove the rating of our commercial paper from CreditWatch after the guarantor under the new holding company arrangement is confirmed. It is our expectation that following the reorganization of IY with its majority owned affiliates, the commercial paper guarantee will be provided by either Seven & I Holdings or one of its wholly owned subsidiaries and that the rating of the commercial paper will be comparable to the rating in place prior to the announcement of the ownership change.

Environmental

As of June 30, 2005, our estimated undiscounted liability for our environmental costs related to remedial action at existing and previously operated gasoline storage sites and other operating and nonoperating properties where releases of regulated substances have been detected was $42.0 million. We anticipate

that substantially all of the future remediation costs for detected releases of regulated substances at remediation sites of which we are aware, as of June 30, 2005, will primarily be incurred within the next five to six years. The estimated liability could change in the near future for several reasons, including (a) revisions to or the creation of governmental requirements, (b) existing remediation projects become fully defined, resulting in revised estimates of the cost to finish the projects and (c) unplanned future failures of underground gasoline storage tank systems.

Under state reimbursement programs, we are eligible to be reimbursed for a portion of future remediation costs, as well as a portion of remediation costs previously incurred. These reimbursement claims represent a firm and legally enforceable basis to recover remediation costs from the various state programs. As of June 30, 2005, we had recorded a net receivable of $53.7 million for the estimated state reimbursements, of which $32.9 million relates to remediation costs incurred in the State of California. In assessing the probability of state reimbursements, we take into consideration each state’s fund balance, revenue sources, existing claim backlog, status of cleaning activity and claim ranking. As a result of these assessments, the recorded receivable amounts at June 30, 2005, are net of allowances of $12.6 million. The estimated future state reimbursement amounts could change within the near future as governmental requirements and state reimbursement programs continue to be revised or extended.

While we cannot be certain of the timing of our receipt of state reimbursement funds, based on our experience we expect to receive the majority of state reimbursement funds within one to three years after our payment of eligible remediation expenses. This time period assumes that the state administrative procedures for processing such reimbursements have not changed.

The exception to our assumption regarding the timing of when we will receive state reimbursement funds is in California. The California reimbursement program separates claims into four classes: A, B, C and D. Our claims are in class D. Upon passage of California AB 1906 in 2004, which increased the expected funding of the state’s reimbursement programs, we revised our estimate of when we would receive funds from California. We have recorded the portion of the receivable that relates to remediation activities that have already been completed at a discount rate of approximately 4.8%. Thus, in addition to the allowance discussed above, the recorded receivable amount is also net of a discount of $19.4 million.

Any revisions to our estimated future remediation expenditures and related state reimbursement amounts could have a material impact on our operations and financial position.

McLane Agreement

In April 2005, we signed an amendment to our service agreement with McLane Company, Inc. (“McLane”) that extends the service agreement for an additional two years. Certain components of the amendment were retroactive to January 1, 2005, while other service requirements do not take effect until the third quarter of 2005. The existing service agreement, under which McLane provides its distribution services to 7-ELEVEN^{^®} stores and designated combined distribution centers in the United States, was set to expire in January 2006. The amendment extends the term of the agreement to January 2008.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

to prior periods’ financial statements unless impracticable. APB Opinion No. 20 required companies to recognize most voluntary changes in accounting principle by including the cumulative effect of the change in net income of the period in which the change was made. SFAS No. 154 redefines “restatement” as the revising of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of an error. SFAS No. 154 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. We will adopt SFAS No. 154 effective January 1, 2006. We do not expect that our adoption of SFAS No. 154 will have a material impact on our financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (“SFAS 123R”), which revises SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS 123R establishes standards for accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. The primary focus of SFAS 123R is on employee services obtained in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R requires that all share-based payments to employees be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values as determined by an option-pricing model as of the grant date of the award. The cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. The implementation guidance of SFAS 123R requires companies to elect a transition method to be used at the date of adoption. The transition methods include both prospective and retrospective options for adopting. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested awards at the beginning of the first period of adoption of SFAS 123R, while the retrospective methods require that compensation expense for all unvested awards be recorded beginning with the first period restated.

When SFAS 123R was issued in December 2004, its effective date for compliance was the first reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. However, on April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a new rule that delays the required implementation of SFAS 123R until the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005.

We will adopt the provisions of SFAS 123R effective January 1, 2006. We intend to elect the retrospective transition method with all prior periods presented restated to include expense previously calculated under SFAS No. 123 for pro forma footnote disclosures. Based on our currently outstanding option grants and our estimated option grants for 2006, we anticipate that adopting SFAS 123R will have an after-tax impact of approximately $6 million to $7 million on our earnings from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2006.
