Dayton Hudson Corp.: The 1990 period reflected a strong retail environment nationwide. The company has just started to see a modest improvement in sales in several difficult markets

Deere & Co. : perating results for the quarter continued to reflect the effects of producing at a significantly lower volume than last year in response to lower retail demand and to facilitate planned reduction of company and dealers’ inventories during the year.

LIVE Entertainment: Results for the second quarter were impacted by the higher-than expected returns of “sell through” products, particularly “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles--The Movie.” Home video sales and margins were also affected by returns from LIVE’s wholly owned subsidiary, Lieberman Enterprises, and its subsequent liquidation.

Long Drug Stores: Sales and income continue to be affected by the soft economy and difficult retail environment.
