PART I

General

Sears Holdings Corporation (“Holdings” or the “Company”) is the parent company of Kmart Holding Corporation (“Kmart”) and Sears, Roebuck and Co. (“Sears”). Holdings was formed as a Delaware corporation in 2004 in connection with the merger of Kmart and Sears (the “Merger”). The Merger, completed on March 24, 2005, combined two of America’s oldest existing retail entities, both with origins dating to the late 1800s. The Company is a broadline retailer with approximately 2,300 full-line and 1,100 specialty retail stores in the United States operating through Kmart and Sears and approximately 370 full-line and specialty retail stores in Canada operating through Sears Canada Inc. (“Sears Canada”), a 70%-owned subsidiary.

Business Segments

During fiscal 2006, the Company operated three reportable segments: Kmart, Sears Domestic and Sears Canada. Financial information, including revenues, operating income and total assets for each of these business segments is contained in Note 19 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Information regarding the components of revenue for Holdings is included in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Kmart

As of February 3, 2007, Holdings operated a total of 1,388 Kmart stores across 49 states, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. This store count included 1,333 discount stores, averaging 93,000 square feet, and 55 Super Centers, averaging 165,000 square feet. Most Kmart stores are one-floor, free-standing units that carry a wide assortment of general merchandise, including products sold under such well-known labels as Jaclyn Smith, Joe Boxer and Martha Stewart Everyday. During fiscal 2005, the Company began selling certain proprietary Sears brand products, such as Kenmore, Craftsman, and DieHard products, and services within certain Kmart stores. At the end of fiscal 2005, approximately 100 Kmart stores were selling an assortment of Sears brand products, mainly within home appliances and tools. During the fall of fiscal 2006, the Company added Craftsman tool assortments into Kmart locations nationwide. In addition, as of February 3, 2007, approximately 180 Kmart stores were also selling an assortment of major home appliances, including Kenmore-branded products. Approximately 1,100 Kmart stores also operate in-store pharmacies. The Super Centers generally operate 24-hours a day and combine a full-service grocery along with the general merchandise selection of a discount store. Kmart also sells its products through its kmart.com website.

Sears Domestic

As of February 3, 2007, Sears Domestic operations consisted of the following:

2

Sears Canada

Sears Canada, a consolidated, 70% -owned subsidiary of Sears, conducts retail operations in Canada similar to those conducted by Sears Domestic, with a greater emphasis on apparel and other softlines than in the U.S. stores. In addition, Sears Canada conducted credit operations prior to the November 15, 2005 sale of its Credit and Financial Services operations to JPMorgan Chase & Co. (“JPMorgan Chase”).

As of February 3, 2007, Sears Canada operated a total of 123 full-line stores, 250 specialty stores (48 furniture and appliance stores, 158 dealer stores operated under independent local ownership, 5 appliances and

3

mattresses stores, 28 Corbeil stores and 11 outlet stores), 50 floor covering stores, approximately 1,900 catalog pick-up locations and 100 travel offices. Sears Canada also conducts business over the Internet through its website, sears.ca.

The Merger and Development of the Business

The Merger has provided Holdings a means for leveraging the historical strengths of Kmart and Sears with the goal of making the Company’s products, brands and service offerings available through more locations and customer distribution channels. Furthermore, Holdings is striving to become more responsive to the needs of customers, thereby building long-term, value-added customer relationships.

Sears has a long-standing reputation for offering customers a wide variety of merchandise and related services, with a particular emphasis on its strong proprietary brands such as Kenmore, Craftsman, DieHard and Lands’ End. Historically, Sears conducted its business primarily using a mall-based format. At the time of the Merger, Sears operated 874 domestic full-line stores mainly located in such on-mall locations. In response to off-mall competitor growth, Sears commenced a strategy prior to the Merger to increase the number of its off-mall stores in order to expand distribution points for its brands, merchandise and services. Kmart, on the other hand, historically used large format, off-mall locations in selling a selection of general merchandise goods. At the time of the Merger, Kmart operated approximately 1,400 off-mall stores and sought to further improve its operational performance by pursuing opportunities to offer customers a differentiated high-quality product selection to distinguish itself from competitors.

With Kmart’s approximately 1,400 off-mall locations, Holdings’ store base offers a greater number of customers the opportunity to purchase Sears products and services outside of Sears’ traditional mall-based stores. This increase in distribution points brought about by the Merger provided a more rapid and lower-cost store base growth than Sears would have been able to accomplish on its own. At the same time, the addition of Sears-owned brands and services, including Sears’ credit products, to Kmart stores enhances the selection and value proposition offered to Kmart customers and helps to differentiate Kmart from its general merchandise competitors. During the fall of fiscal 2006, the Company added Craftsman brand tool assortments into Kmart locations nationwide. In addition, as of February 3, 2007, approximately 180 Kmart stores were also selling an assortment of major home appliances, including Kenmore-branded products. The Company will continue to explore opportunities to profitably cross-merchandise products and services between its Kmart and Sears formats.

The Company’s combined store base of approximately 2,300 full-line stores allows Holdings to compete on a scale larger than that of many of its national competitors. The scale of the combined enterprise has also generated significant opportunities for realizing cost synergies across a number of areas, including merchandise and non-merchandise purchasing, delivery and distribution and within other selling, general and administrative expense areas. While the Company will continue to operate both the Sears and Kmart store formats in the foreseeable future, many of the functions supporting these formats have been integrated.

For accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as a purchase business combination, with Kmart acquiring Sears. In identifying Kmart as the acquiring entity, the companies took into account the relative share ownership of the Company after the Merger, the composition of the governing body of the combined entity and the designation of certain senior management positions. Accordingly, the historical financial statements of Kmart serve as the historical financial statements of Holdings, the registrant.

In connection with the Merger, Kmart shareholders received one share of Holdings common stock for each Kmart share owned. In all, approximately 94.9 million shares of Holdings common stock were issued in exchange for all outstanding common stock of Kmart. Sears shareholders were issued an aggregate of 62.2 million shares of Holdings common stock at a total value of approximately $6.5 billion (based on the average closing price of $104.33 of Kmart’s common stock during the period from November 15, 2004 through

4

November 19, 2004, two business days before and after the date the Merger was announced). In addition, approximately $5.4 billion in cash was paid in consideration for (i) all outstanding shares of common stock of Sears, based upon the proration provisions of the agreement pursuant to which the Merger was effected, and (ii) all outstanding stock options of Sears. Including transaction costs of approximately $18 million, the total consideration paid was approximately $11.9 billion.

Additional information concerning the Merger is contained in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Bankruptcy of Kmart Corporation

Kmart Corporation (the “Predecessor Company”) is a predecessor operating company of Kmart (the “Successor Company”). In January 2002, the Predecessor Company and 37 of its U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws (“Chapter 11”). The Debtors decided to seek bankruptcy reorganization based upon a rapid decline in their liquidity resulting from below-plan sales and earnings performance in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, the evaporation of the surety bond market, an erosion of supplier confidence, intense competition and unsuccessful sales and marketing initiatives, as well as the continued recession and capital market volatility in existence at that time. The Predecessor Company utilized Chapter 11 to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce debt, focus its store portfolio on the most productive locations and terminate leases for closed stores, develop a more efficient organization and lower overall operating costs.

On May 6, 2003 (the “Effective Date”), the Predecessor Company emerged from reorganization proceedings under Chapter 11 pursuant to the terms of an Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan of Reorganization”) and related amended Disclosure Statement. This Plan received formal endorsement of the statutory creditors’ committee and, as modified, was confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in April 2003. The Predecessor Company is presently an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings.

Sale of Sears Canada’s Credit and Financial Services Business

On November 15, 2005, Sears Canada completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of its Credit and Financial Services operations to JPMorgan Chase for approximately $2.0 billion in cash proceeds, net of securitized receivables and other related costs and taxes. In addition, Sears Canada and JPMorgan Chase concurrently entered into a long-term marketing and servicing alliance with an initial term of ten years. Sears Canada used a portion of the proceeds it generated from the sale to fund an extraordinary cash dividend and a tax-free return of stated capital to shareholders of record on December 16, 2005. Holdings, as beneficial owner of approximately 54% of the outstanding common stock of Sears Canada at the time of the distribution, received $877 million in after-tax proceeds from this distribution. Additional information concerning the sale is contained in Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Acquisition of Minority Interest in Sears Canada

In December 2005, Holdings announced its intention to acquire 100% ownership of Sears Canada in order to allow Sears Canada to be in a better competitive position relative to other Canadian retailers and the Canadian operations of major U.S. retailers. During fiscal 2006, the Company increased its majority interest in Sears Canada from 54% to 70% by acquiring 17.8 million common shares of Sears Canada pursuant to the takeover bid. The Company paid a total of $282 million for the additional 17.8 million common shares acquired and has accounted for the acquisition of additional interests in Sears Canada as a purchase business combination for accounting purposes. The takeover bid expired on November 27, 2006.

Real Estate Transactions

In the normal course of business, the Company considers opportunities to purchase leased operating properties, as well as offers to sell owned, or assign leased, operating and non-operating properties. These

5

transactions may, individually or in the aggregate, result in material proceeds or outlays of cash. In addition, the Company reviews leases that will expire in the short term in order to determine the appropriate action to take with respect to them.

Further information concerning the Company’s real estate transactions is contained in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Trademarks, Trade Names and Licenses

The “KMART^®” and “SEARS^®” trade names, service marks and trademarks, used by the Company both in the United States and internationally, are material to the Company’s retail and other related businesses.

The Company sells proprietary branded merchandise under a number of brand names that are important to its operations. The Company’s KENMORE^®, CRAFTSMAN^®, DIEHARD^® and LANDS’ END^® brands are among the most recognized proprietary brands in retailing. These marks are the subject of numerous United States and foreign trademark registrations. Other well recognized Company trademarks and service marks include THE GREAT INDOORS^®, OSH^®, CANYON RIVER BLUES^®, COVINGTON^®, and ATHLETECH^®. The Company also has the right to sell an exclusive line of Martha Stewart Everyday^® products in its Kmart locations over the next three years, as well as within Sears Canada stores through August 2008. The Company’s right to use its trade names and marks continues so long as it uses them.

Seasonality

The retail business is seasonal in nature, and the Company generates a high proportion of its revenues and operating cash flows during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year, which includes the holiday season. As a result, the Company’s overall profitability is heavily impacted by its fourth quarter operating results. Additionally, in preparation for the fourth quarter holiday season, the Company significantly increases its merchandise inventory levels, which have traditionally been financed from operating cash flows and credit terms received from vendors. Fourth quarter reported revenues accounted for 31% of total reported revenues in fiscal 2006.

Competition

The Company’s business is subject to highly competitive conditions. The Company competes with a wide variety of retailers including other department stores, discounters, home improvement stores, consumer electronics dealers and auto service providers, specialty retailers, wholesale clubs and many other competitors operating on a national, regional or local level along with Internet and catalog businesses, which handle similar lines of merchandise. Wal-Mart, Target, Kohl’s, JC Penney, Home Depot, Lowe’s and Best Buy are some of the national competitors with which the Company competes. Home Depot, Lowe’s and Best Buy are major competitors in relation to the Company’s home appliance business, which accounted for approximately 15% of the Company’s fiscal 2006 reported revenues. Sears Canada competes in Canada with Hudson’s Bay Company and U.S.-based competitors, including those mentioned above, that are expanding into Canada. Success in this competitive marketplace is based on factors such as price, product assortment and quality, service and convenience, including availability of retail-related services such as access to credit, product delivery, repair and installation.

Employees

As of February 3, 2007, the Company had approximately 315,000 employees in the United States and U.S. territories, and approximately 37,000 employees in Canada through Sears Canada including, in each case, part-time employees.

References to “us”, “we” and “our” refer to the Company. The following risk factors could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us may also negatively impact us.

If we fail to offer merchandise and services that our customers want, our sales may be limited, which would reduce our revenues and profits.

In order for our business to be successful, we must identify, obtain supplies of, and offer to our customers attractive, innovative and high-quality merchandise on a continuous basis. Our products and services must satisfy the desires of our customers, whose preferences may change in the future. If we misjudge either the demand for products and services we sell or our customers’ purchasing habits and tastes, we may be faced with excess inventories of some products and missed opportunities for products and services we chose not to offer. In addition, our sales may decline or we may be required to sell the merchandise we have obtained at lower prices. This would have a negative effect on our business and results of operations.

If we do not successfully manage our inventory levels, our operating results will be adversely affected.

We must maintain sufficient inventory levels to operate our business successfully. However, we also must guard against accumulating excess inventory as we seek to minimize out-of-stock levels across all product categories and to maintain in-stock levels. We obtain a significant portion of our inventory from vendors located outside the United States. These vendors often require lengthy advance notice of our requirements in order to be able to supply products in the quantities we request. This usually requires us to order merchandise, and enter into purchase order contracts for the purchase and manufacture of such merchandise, well in advance of the time these products will be offered for sale. As a result, we may experience difficulty in responding to a changing retail environment, which makes us vulnerable to changes in price. If we do not accurately anticipate the future demand for a particular product or the time it will take to obtain new inventory, our inventory levels will not be appropriate and our results of operations may be negatively impacted.

If we are unable to compete effectively in the highly competitive retail industry, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

The retail industry is highly competitive with few barriers to entry. We compete with a wide variety of retailers including other department stores, discounters, home improvement stores, consumer electronics dealers and auto service providers, specialty retailers, wholesale clubs and many other competitors operating on a national, regional or local level. Some of our competitors are actively engaged in new store expansion. Internet and catalog businesses, which handle similar lines of merchandise, also compete with us. In this competitive marketplace, success is based on factors such as price, product assortment and quality, service and convenience.

7

Our success depends on our ability to differentiate ourselves from our competitors with respect to shopping convenience, a quality assortment of available merchandise and superior customer service. We must also successfully respond to our customers’ changing tastes. The performance of our competitors, as well as changes in their pricing policies, marketing activities, new store openings and other business strategies, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Due to the seasonality of our business, our annual operating results would be adversely affected if our fourth quarter results fail to meet our expectations.

Our business is seasonal, with a high proportion of revenues and operating cash flows being generated during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, which includes the holiday season. As a result, our fourth quarter operating results significantly impact our annual operating results. Our fourth quarter operating results may fluctuate significantly, based on many factors, including holiday spending patterns and weather conditions.

Our comparable store sales may fluctuate for a variety of reasons, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our business is sensitive to customers’ spending patterns, which in turn are subject to prevailing economic conditions. Our comparable store sales and results of operations have fluctuated in the past, and we expect them to continue to fluctuate in the future. A variety of other factors affect our comparable store sales and financial performance, including:

Accordingly, our results for any one fiscal quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other quarter, and comparable store sales for any particular future period may decrease. For more information on our results of operations, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

We rely on foreign sources for significant amounts of our merchandise, and our business may therefore be negatively affected by the risks associated with international trade.

We depend on a large number of products produced in foreign markets. We face risks associated with the delivery of merchandise originating outside the United States, including:

A decline in general economic conditions, consumer-spending levels and other conditions could lead to reduced consumer demand for our merchandise thereby reducing our revenues and gross margins.

Many economic and other factors outside our control, including consumer confidence, consumer spending levels, employment levels, prevailing interest rates, housing sales and remodels and consumer debt levels, as well

8

as fuel costs and the availability of consumer credit, affect consumer-spending habits. In addition, disposable income levels may influence consumer-purchasing patterns. A general slowdown in the United States economy or an uncertain economic outlook could adversely affect consumer spending habits and our operating results.

The domestic and international political situation also affects consumer confidence. The threat, outbreak or escalation of terrorism, military conflicts or other hostilities could lead to a decrease in consumer spending. Any of these events and factors could cause us to increase inventory markdowns and promotional expenses, thereby reducing our gross margins and operating results.

We rely extensively on computer systems to process transactions, summarize results and manage our business. Disruptions in these systems could harm our ability to run our business.

Given the number of individual transactions we have each year, it is critical that we maintain uninterrupted operation of our computer and communications hardware and software systems. Our systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, security breaches, catastrophic events such as fires, tornadoes and hurricanes, and usage errors by our employees. If our systems are damaged or cease to function properly, we may have to make a significant investment to fix or replace them, and we may suffer interruptions in our operations in the interim. Any material interruption in our computer operations may have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. In addition, we are pursuing complex initiatives to transform our information technology processes and systems, which will include, for many systems, establishing a common platform across our lines of business, such as common human resources, supply chain and financial systems. The risk of disruption is increased in periods where such complex and significant systems changes are undertaken. Also, if we fail to successfully combine our systems, we may fail to realize cost savings anticipated to be derived from these initiatives.

The loss of key personnel may disrupt our business and adversely affect our financial results.

We depend on the contributions of key personnel, including Edward S. Lampert (chairman), Aylwin B. Lewis (Chief Executive Officer and President) and other key employees, for our future success. Although certain executives, including Mr. Lewis, have employment agreements with us, changes in our senior management and any future departures of key employees may disrupt our business and materially adversely affect our results of operations.

Affiliates of our Chairman, whose interests may be different than your interests, exert substantial influence over our Company.

Affiliates of Edward S. Lampert, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, beneficially own 42.5% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. These affiliates are controlled, directly or indirectly, by Mr. Lampert. Accordingly, these affiliates, and thus Mr. Lampert, have substantial influence over many if not all actions to be taken or approved by our stockholders, including the election of directors and any transactions involving a change of control.

The interests of these affiliates, which have investments in other companies, may from time to time diverge from the interests of our other stockholders, particularly with regard to new investment opportunities. This substantial influence may have the effect of discouraging offers to acquire our Company because the consummation of any such acquisition would likely require the consent of these affiliates.

We may be subject to product liability claims if people or property are harmed by the products we sell or the services we offer.

Some of the products we sell may expose us to product liability claims relating to personal injury, death, or property damage caused by such products, and may require us to take actions such as product recalls. We also

9

provide various services which could also give rise to such claims. Although we maintain liability insurance, we cannot be certain that our coverage will be adequate for liabilities actually incurred or that insurance will continue to be available to us on economically reasonable terms, or at all.

We may be subject to periodic litigation and other regulatory proceedings. These proceedings may be affected by changes in laws and government regulations or changes in the enforcement thereof.

From time to time, we may be involved in lawsuits and regulatory actions relating to our business, certain of which may be in jurisdictions with reputations for aggressive application of laws and procedures against corporate defendants. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation and regulatory proceedings, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, regardless of the outcome of any litigation or regulatory proceedings, these proceedings could result in substantial costs and may require that we devote substantial resources to defend our Company. Further, changes in governmental regulations both in the United States and in the other countries where we operate could have adverse effects on our business and subject us to additional regulatory actions. For a description of current legal proceedings, see Item 3, “Legal Proceedings” in this Form 10-K.

The Company’s failure to successfully invest available surplus cash could negatively affect the Company’s performance

The Company’s performance with respect to the investment of surplus cash is substantially dependent on the performance of Edward S. Lampert, to whom the Company’s Board of Directors has delegated authority to direct such investments, subject to certain limitations.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to identify investment opportunities that meet its requirements. Any such investments may include significant and highly concentrated direct investments, related derivative positions, or both, with respect to the equity securities of public companies. In addition, any such investments will involve risks, and Holdings’ balance sheet and results of operations may fluctuate, depending on the extent of excess funds and the timing, magnitude and performance of the Company’s investments. Furthermore, such investments would be subject to volatility due to market conditions and other conditions over which the Company may not have control, which may affect both the recorded value of the investments as well as the Company’s periodic earnings. Accordingly, the poor performance by a significant investment of the Company could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition of the Company.

Specifically, at February 3, 2007, the Company had total return swaps outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of $375 million. See Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Investment of Available Capital.” These investments are highly concentrated and involve substantial risks. A significant decline in the value of these investments could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s quarterly and annual results of operations.

None.

Of the total, 15 primarily support Kmart locations and the remaining 28 primarily support Sears stores. In addition, the Company had 614 domestic store warehouses, customer call centers and service facilities, most of which are leased for terms ranging generally from one to 10 years or are part of other facilities included in the above table.

The Company’s principal executive offices are located on a 200-acre site owned by the Company at the Prairie Stone office park in Hoffman Estates, Illinois. The complex consists of six interconnected office buildings totaling approximately two million gross square feet of office space.

In December 2005, the Company sold the former Kmart headquarters building in Troy, Michigan. The Company still owns an 86,000 square foot office building in Troy, Michigan.

The Company has divided its “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (“MD&A”) into the following seven sections:

Fiscal 2006 Summary

Holdings Consolidated Results

Business Segment Results

Pro Forma Reconciliation

Overview of Holdings

Holdings, the parent company of Kmart and Sears, was formed in connection with the March 24, 2005 Merger of these two companies. The Company is a broadline retailer and, at the end of fiscal 2006, had approximately 2,300 full-line and 1,100 specialty retail stores in the United States operating through Kmart and Sears and approximately 370 full-line and specialty retail stores in Canada operating through Sears Canada, a 70%-owned subsidiary.

The Company currently conducts its operations in three business segments: Kmart, Sears Domestic and Sears Canada. Prior to the Merger, the Company operated a single business segment, Kmart. The nature of operations conducted within each of these segments is discussed within the “Business Segments” section of Item 1 in this Form 10-K.

Merger

The Merger was accounted for as a purchase business combination, with Kmart acquiring Sears. Accordingly, the historical financial statements of Kmart serve as the historical financial statements of Holdings. The consolidated statements of income and cash flows for fiscal 2005 include the results of operations of Sears subsequent to the Merger date, or from March 25, 2005 forward. Therefore, Holdings’ operating results for fiscal 2005 include approximately 44 weeks of Sears’ results and 52 weeks of Kmart’s results.

Kmart shareholders received one share of Holdings common stock for each Kmart share owned. In all, approximately 94.9 million shares of Holdings common stock were issued in exchange for all outstanding common stock of Kmart. In aggregate, approximately 62.2 million shares of Holdings common stock were issued to Sears shareholders at a value of approximately $6.5 billion (based on the average closing price of $104.33 of Kmart’s common stock during the period from November 15, 2004 through November 19, 2004, two business days before and after the date the Merger was announced). In addition, approximately $5.4 billion in cash was paid in consideration for (i) all outstanding shares of common stock of Sears, based upon the proration provisions of the agreement pursuant to which the Merger was effected, and (ii) all outstanding stock options of Sears. Including transaction costs of approximately $18 million, the total consideration paid for the acquisition of Sears was approximately $11.9 billion.

20

Fiscal Year

Effective March 23, 2005, the Company changed its fiscal year end from the last Wednesday in January to the Saturday closest to January 31st. In fiscal 2006, the Saturday nearest January 31st was February 3, 2007. Therefore, fiscal 2006 consisted of 53 weeks. Both fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004 consisted of 52 weeks. Unless otherwise stated, references to years in this report relate to fiscal years rather than to calendar years. The following fiscal periods are presented in this report.

Sears Canada’s fiscal year end is the Saturday closest to December 31st. The results of operations for Sears Canada are reported to Holdings on a one-month lag. Therefore, the consolidated statements of income and cash flows for fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005 include operating results for Sears Canada from January 1, 2006 through December 30, 2006 and March 25, 2005 through December 31, 2005, respectively.

Fiscal 2006 Initiatives and Accomplishments

While Holdings was formed as a direct result of the 2005 merger between Kmart and Sears, the Company is an entirely new organization, with both a vision and mission that extend well beyond merely combining these two entities. Management of this new organization has developed vision and mission statements that describe the company Holdings aspires to become. Holdings’ vision statement is:

Sears Holdings is committed to improving the lives of customers by providing quality services, products and solutions that earn their trust and build lifetime relationships.

The Company’s mission is described by the following three simple, focused principles, against which every associate in the Company is evaluated:

In 2006 Holdings senior management expended significant effort to disseminate Holdings’ vision and mission throughout the organization in order to align all associates, from front-line store managers and store associates serving customers directly to those associates supporting stores in corporate and administrative functions, on common goals and culture. The Company believes that the establishment of the proper culture, a culture where the vision and mission are shared across the entire organization, is a necessary first step for Holdings to achieve prominence in the retail industry and become a great company.

The retail industry is highly competitive and as such Holdings faces significant challenges to achieve prominence. One significant challenge is the fact that the sales and profit productivity of many competitor stores exceeds that of Holdings’ own stores. Therefore, the Company believes the greatest near-term value, and its greatest immediate challenge, comes from better utilizing Holdings’ existing base of over 3,000 stores to deliver greater value to customers and ultimately Holdings shareholders. The Company will strive to better leverage the significant scale it already has, as well as the Company’s brand strength and service offerings to improve Holdings’ multi-channel (store, on-line and catalog) shopability and continue to give customers reasons to shop Holdings more frequently.

While the Company’s mission principles (build customer relationships, make more money and improve every day) are simple in concept, they can be difficult to execute within the context of a highly competitive retail

21

environment. Therefore, the Company believes that it must improve its analytical capabilities and foster a discipline of continuous learning and fact-based decision making in order to successfully execute these principles. Accordingly, in 2006 the Company committed resources to improve the organization’s overall analytical capabilities and implement a structured “test, learn and deploy” process to evaluate new initiatives. The Company believes that becoming a “test and learn” organization will allow it to better understand the needs of its existing (and potential future) customers and develop solutions to profitably meet those needs.

Specific actions taken by the Company in 2006 to build long-term customer relationships and improve the profitability and/or daily operations include:

22

Certain of these initiatives and actions benefited the Company’s fiscal 2006 operating results, and the impact of such items is reflected in the Company’s 2006 operating results as presented in the below “Results of Operations” section. Other initiatives represent investments management has made with the belief that they further Holdings’ pursuit of its ultimate mission: profitably building long-term relationships and gaining prominence in the retail industry.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In the results of operations section that follows, results for fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004 are set forth on both a reported and pro forma basis. This presentation reflects the fact that the reported results for Holdings prior to the March 24, 2005 Merger reflect only Kmart’s results. Accordingly, to facilitate an understanding of the Company’s trends and on-going performance, the Company has presented pro forma results below for fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004 in addition to the reported results for these years. The pro forma results adjust the reported amounts for these two fiscal years to give effect to the Merger as if it had occurred at the beginning of fiscal 2004. Thus, the pro forma results include both Kmart and Sears results for the entire fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004 periods. A reconciliation of pro forma amounts to reported amounts has been included under the heading “Pro Forma Reconciliation.”

References to comparable store sales amounts within the following discussion include sales for all stores operating for a period of at least 12 full months, including remodeled and expanded stores, but excluding store relocations and stores that have undergone format changes. Comparable store sales results for fiscal 2006 were calculated based on the 52-week period ended January 27, 2007 as compared to the comparable 52-week period in the prior year.

The discussion that follows should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Item 8.

23

Holdings Reported Results

Holdings’ consolidated results of operations for fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, presented on both a reported and a pro forma basis are summarized below.

Fiscal 2006 Summary

The following discussion is designed to provide the reader with an overview of fiscal 2006 financial results, with particular emphasis on significant events and transactions that had a disproportionate effect on the Company’s results for the fiscal years presented. Further discussion regarding the Company’s operating performance follows this overview section.

24

Net Income

For fiscal 2006, net income was $1.5 billion compared with net income of $858 million (reported) and $789 million (pro forma) in fiscal 2005. Net income for fiscal 2005 included an after-tax charge of $90 million (reported and proforma) for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting as described above. The increase in net income for the year reflects increased operating income at both Sears Domestic and Kmart, driven primarily by improved margin rate performance, most notably within apparel during the second half of fiscal 2006, as well as improved expense management across all segments. The favorable impact of these items more than offset the negative impact of sales declines in fiscal 2006 relative to pro forma sales levels for fiscal 2005.

Earnings per Diluted Share and Significant Items

The table below sets forth earnings per share results for the Company’s most recent three fiscal years, reflected on both a reported and pro forma basis for fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004 as explained above. Net income and earnings per diluted share results for all three fiscal years were impacted by certain significant items. The magnitude of such items may vary significantly from period to period and, thereby, have a disproportionate effect on earnings for any given period, affecting the comparability of the Company’s financial performance. Accordingly, management considers the aggregate impact of these items, along with reported results, in reviewing and evaluating the Company’s financial performance.

The impact of these items on diluted earnings per share is shown in the following table:

For fiscal 2006, net income included the following significant items: 1) pre-tax gains of $74 million ($45 million after-tax or $0.29 per diluted share) derived from the Company’s investment of a portion of its surplus cash (see the “Interest and Investment Income” section below for further details); 2) a tax benefit of $31 million ($0.20 per diluted share) related to the resolution of certain income tax matters; 3) a $36 million pre-tax gain ($22 million after-tax or $0.14 per diluted share) recorded by the Company for the aggregate amount received by Holdings in June 2006 as part of the settlement of Visa/MasterCard antitrust litigation; and, 4) a pre-tax charge of $74 million ($45 million after-tax or $0.29 per diluted share) related to an unfavorable verdict in connection with a pre-Merger legal matter concerning Sears’ redemption of certain bonds in 2004. See Note 20 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding this matter.

All three fiscal years were impacted by gains recorded on the sale of Company assets. These pre-tax gains amounted to $82 million ($50 million after-tax or $0.32 per diluted share) in fiscal 2006, $39 million ($25 million after-tax or $0.16 per diluted share) in fiscal 2005, and $946 million ($586 million after-tax or $5.78 per diluted share) in fiscal 2004. The fiscal 2004 gain reflects Kmart’s completion of multiple sale and lease assignment transactions, including significant transactions with The Home Depot, Inc. (“Home Depot”) and

25

Sears. The pro forma gain on sale of assets impact for fiscal 2004, $1.35 per diluted share as shown above, excludes the impact of gains recognized in fiscal 2004 for sales of properties to Sears. Further details pertaining to these transactions are set forth in Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Additionally, all three fiscal years were impacted by restructuring charges. These pre-tax charges were $28 million ($14 million after-tax or $0.09 per diluted share) in fiscal 2006, $111 million ($54 million after-tax or $0.35 per diluted share- reported, $53 million after-tax or $0.33 per diluted share- pro forma) in fiscal 2005, and pro forma $41 million (pro forma $26 million after-tax or $0.16 per diluted share- pro forma) in fiscal 2004. The charges for both fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005 were recorded in connection with the Merger and integration of Sears’ and Kmart’s headquarters support functions, as well as in connection with productivity initiatives at Sears Canada. The fiscal 2004 pro forma restructuring charges were recorded by Sears in connection with certain productivity initiatives at that entity. Further details pertaining to these restructuring charges are set forth in Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fiscal 2005 net income was negatively impacted by an after-tax charge of $90 million ($0.58 per diluted share- reported, $0.55 per diluted share- pro forma) for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for certain indirect overhead costs included in inventory. Further details pertaining to this cumulative effect charge are set forth in Note 3 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Total Revenues and Comparable Store Sales

Fiscal 2006 domestic comparable store sales were down 3.7% in the aggregate, with Sears Domestic declining 6.1% and Kmart declining 0.6%. These declines are less than fiscal 2005 domestic comparable store sales declines of 5.3% in the aggregate, and declines of 8.4% and 1.2% at Sears Domestic and Kmart, respectively. As was the case in fiscal 2005, the current year declines primarily reflect the impact of increased competition and lower transaction volumes across most merchandise categories and formats. In fiscal 2006, notably larger declines within Sears Domestic’s lawn and garden and home fashions businesses (as further discussed below in the review of Sears Domestic’s results), were partially offset by increased apparel and pharmacy sales at Kmart, and increased women’s apparel sales at Sears Domestic. The fiscal 2006 sales increase within women’s apparel at Sears Domestic was driven by stronger performance during the second half of the year, reflecting what the Company believes are improved assortments in this category relative to last year. In fiscal 2005, Sears Domestic modified its apparel assortment to a more “fashion forward” offering, which was not successful and led to significant sales declines within Sears Domestic’s apparel business during the second half of 2005.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, which includes the holiday selling season, domestic comparable store sales declined 3.1% in the aggregate, with Sears Domestic and Kmart recording comparable store sales declines of 4.9% and 0.9%, respectively. Fourth quarter comparable sales results largely reflect the same factors as noted above; however, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company experienced a sales decline in its home appliances business as a result of the slower U.S. housing market and increased competition.

While the Company believes that its efforts will make its products, brands and service offerings more responsive to the needs of customers and thereby improve the trend in domestic comparable store sales results during fiscal 2007, the benefits derived from such efforts may be mitigated by the impact of continued market share pressure as competitors open additional locations and engage in heavy promotional activity. The Company expects these competitive trends to continue in the foreseeable future which may negatively affect both the Company’s sales performance and results of operations.

Total revenues for fiscal 2006 were $53.0 billion, as compared to revenues of $49.1 billion (reported) and $54.3 billion (pro forma) for fiscal 2005. The increase in fiscal 2006 revenues as compared to reported revenues in fiscal 2005 was primarily due to the inclusion of Sears for the entire year in fiscal 2006 and, to a lesser degree, the inclusion of an additional week of sales in fiscal 2006 (comprised of 53 weeks) as compared to fiscal 2005

26

(comprised of 52 weeks). The Company recorded a total of $711 million in revenues during the 53^rd week of fiscal 2006. Fiscal 2006 revenues declined $1.3 billion, or 2.3%, to $53.0 billion, as compared to fiscal 2005 pro forma revenues of $54.3 billion. The decline primarily reflects lower comparable store sales and the impact of Kmart store closures, partially offset by the above-noted additional week of sales recorded in the current year, and to a lesser degree, sales increases in Sears Domestic’s home services business.

The Company aims to pursue a course of disciplined revenue growth, whereby sales growth opportunities are analyzed to ensure that they provide sufficient possibility of improving the Company’s profitability and are consistent with the Holdings’ mission of building long-term customer relationships. As noted above, in the near term, management believes the greatest overall benefit to Holdings’ profitability will not come from increasing the Company’s store base, but rather primarily from better utilizing existing assets to deliver more value to customers.

Gross Margin Rate

Gross margin as a percentage of merchandise sales and services revenue (“gross margin rate”) was 28.7% in fiscal 2006, as compared to 27.4% (reported and pro forma) in fiscal 2005. The overall improvement in the Company’s gross margin rates during fiscal 2006 more than offset the unfavorable profit impact of the above-noted revenue declines. The Company remained focused on the improvement of gross margins during fiscal 2006, and gross margin rates improved across all business segments: Kmart, Sears Domestic and Sears Canada. The overall improved gross margin rate primarily reflects improvements realized in the Company’s apparel businesses. Sears Domestic was the largest contributor to the overall margin rate improvement, as gross margin rates at Sears Domestic improved across most full-line store merchandise categories, with pronounced improvements in apparel. Kmart’s margins improved, but to a lesser degree than at Sears Domestic.

The Company believes the improved gross margin rate performance of its apparel business, and within women’s apparel at Sears Domestic in particular, reflects the impact of having better product assortments in place relative to last year. This improvement in assortments lowered apparel markdowns during the current year relative to prior year levels. Additional markdowns were taken in the latter half of 2005 to clear fashion apparel given poor customer response to Sears Domestic full-line store apparel offerings last year. Additionally, apparel gross margins at both Kmart and Sears Domestic benefited from fiscal 2006 efforts to procure products at a lower cost to the Company including increased utilization of direct-sourced merchandise, particularly at Sears Domestic, which had historically not utilized direct-sourcing to the extent of its use at Kmart. Also, Sears Domestic’s home services and Lands’ End businesses contributed to the overall improved gross margins for Holdings during fiscal 2006. As was the case within other apparel businesses during fiscal 2006, the improvement in Lands’ End’s gross margin reflects more extensive and effective use of direct-sourced merchandise, as well as the favorable impact of pricing initiatives and stronger in-season sales results.

Selling and Administrative Expense Rate

Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues (“selling and administrative expense rate”) was 21.8% in fiscal 2006, as compared to 22.0% (reported) and 22.4% (pro forma) for fiscal 2005. The Company remained focused on disciplined spending in fiscal 2006, and the Company’s selling and administrative expense rate improved across all segments, with the most notable improvements made at Sears Canada. The current year rate improvement primarily reflects improved expense management, particularly within payroll and benefits. Sears Canada’s improvement was due in part to the sale of Sears Canada’s Credit and Financial Products business in late fiscal 2005, as well as improved expense management.

Interest and Investment Income

The Company recorded interest and investment income of $254 million in fiscal 2006, as compared with $127 million (reported) and $159 million (pro forma) in fiscal 2005. The increased interest and investment

27

income in fiscal 2006 was primarily due to total return swap income recognized in the current year. During fiscal 2006, the Company entered into total return swaps and recognized $74 million of investment income, consisting of realized gains of $84 million and unrealized losses of $2 million less $8 million of interest cost. These total return swaps are derivative contracts that synthetically replicate the economic return characteristics of one or more underlying marketable equity securities. In exchange for receiving the return tied to the position underlying a total return swap, the Company pays a floating rate of interest tied to LIBOR on the notional amount of the contract. Changes in fair value of the total return swaps are recognized currently in earnings.

Reduction in Debt Assumed as Part of the Merger

Debt levels were reduced by $0.4 billion in fiscal 2006. This debt was primarily Sears debt included in Holdings’ consolidated balance sheet subsequent to the Merger.

Share Repurchases

The Company repurchased approximately 6 million of its common shares in fiscal 2006 at a total cost of approximately $0.8 billion under the Company’s $2.0 billion common share repurchase program described under the “Financing” section below.

Holdings Consolidated Results

Fiscal 2006 Compared to Fiscal 2005

As discussed above, the reported consolidated statement of income for fiscal 2005 includes Sears’ results of operations only for the period subsequent to the Merger, or from March 25, 2005 forward. The Company believes that presenting fiscal 2005 results on a pro forma basis, which includes Sears’ results for the entire fiscal 2005 year, is important to an understanding and assessment of the Company’s results, trends and on-going performance. Accordingly, the Company has provided an analysis of operating results for fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005 results presented on both a reported and a pro forma basis.

Fiscal 2006 revenues were $53.0 billion as compared to $49.1 billion (reported) and $54.3 billion (pro forma) in fiscal 2005. As discussed above, the increase in fiscal 2006 revenues, as compared to reported revenues for fiscal 2005, was primarily due to the inclusion of Sears for the entire year in fiscal 2006 and, to a lesser degree, the inclusion of an additional week of sales in fiscal 2006. Fiscal 2006 revenues declined $1.3 billion, or 2.3%, to $53.0 billion, as compared to fiscal 2005 pro forma revenues of $54.3 billion, as lower comparable store sales (as discussed above) and the impact of Kmart store closures were partially offset by the above-noted additional week of sales recorded in the current year, and to a lesser degree, sales increases in Sears Domestic’s home services business.

The gross margin rate was 28.7% in fiscal 2006, as compared to 27.4% (reported and pro forma) in fiscal 2005. Gross margin rates improved across all business segments: Kmart, Sears Domestic and Sears Canada, with the increase primarily reflecting the above-noted improvements being realized in the Company’s apparel businesses.

The selling and administrative expense rate was 21.8% in fiscal 2006, as compared to 22.0% (reported) and 22.4% (pro forma) for fiscal 2005. As noted above, the current year rate improvement primarily reflects improved expense management, with the most notable improvements made at Sears Canada due in part to the sale of Sears Canada’s Credit and Financial Products business in late fiscal 2005, as well as improved expense management.

Depreciation and amortization was $1.1 billion for fiscal 2006, as compared to $0.9 billion (reported) and $1.1 billion (pro forma) for fiscal 2005. The increased expense for fiscal 2006, as compared to the reported expense for fiscal 2005, was primarily attributable to the inclusion of Sears for the entire year in fiscal 2006.

28

Gains on sales of assets were $82 million in fiscal 2006, as compared to $39 million (reported) and $40 million (pro forma) for fiscal 2005. The increase in fiscal 2006 was primarily attributable to a $41 million pre-tax gain recognized in 2006 in connection with the 2005 sale of the Company’s former Kmart headquarters in Troy, Michigan.

Fiscal 2005 included a $317 million gain on sale of business, which reflected a minority interest gain on the sale of Sears Canada’s Credit and Financial Services operations in November 2005. This gain had no impact on Holdings’ net income as its entire impact was offset by increased minority interest expense. See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

Restructuring charges were $28 million and $111 million (reported and proforma) for fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005, respectively. These charges included charges of $19 million and $57 million in fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005, respectively, for employee-related termination costs associated with Sears Canada restructuring initiatives implemented during fiscal 2005, including a workforce reduction of approximately 1,200 associates, as well as $9 million and $54 million in fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005, respectively, at Kmart for relocation assistance and employee termination-related costs associated with Holdings’ home office integration efforts. See Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

For fiscal 2006, interest and investment income was $254 million, as compared with $127 million (reported) and $159 million (pro forma) in fiscal 2005. As discussed above, the increased interest and investment income in fiscal 2006 was primarily due to total return swap income recognized in the current year.

Other income is primarily comprised of bankruptcy-related recoveries. Bankruptcy-related recoveries decreased $26 million in fiscal 2006 and represent amounts recovered from vendors who had received cash payment for pre-petition obligations. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail. The impact of lower bankruptcy-related recoveries in fiscal 2006 as compared with fiscal 2005 was partially offset by increased income recorded relative to foreign currency forward contracts for which hedge accounting was not applied. See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

The effective tax rate increased to 37.7% in fiscal 2006 from 36.4% in fiscal 2005, with the increase primarily attributable to the fact that the effective rate in fiscal 2005 benefited from the November 2005 sale of Sears Canada’s Credit and Financial Services business being taxed at a capital gains rate, lowering the effective tax rate for fiscal 2005.

Effective January 27, 2005, the Company determined that it would be preferable to conform one of the accounting practices utilized by Kmart to that of Sears. The Company changed its method of accounting for certain indirect overhead costs from inventoriable costs to period expenses. In accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” a change in accounting policy to conform the acquirer’s policy to that of the acquired entity is treated as a change in accounting principle. As a result of the accounting change, the Company recorded a charge of $90 million, net of taxes, in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 for the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle. The charge represents the amount of indirect costs reflected within inventory at the beginning of fiscal 2005. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

Fiscal 2005 Compared to Fiscal 2004

The consolidated statement of income for fiscal 2005 is not comparable to that for fiscal 2004 because fiscal 2004 does not include the results of Sears. Additionally, Holdings’ consolidated statement of income for fiscal 2005 is not representative of the Company’s on-going operations as it only includes Sears’ results of operations for the period subsequent to the Merger, or from March 25, 2005 forward. For these reasons, the Company believes that an understanding of its reported results, trends and on-going performance is not complete without presenting results on a pro forma basis. Accordingly, the Company has provided an analysis of operating results for fiscal 2005 as compared to fiscal 2004 on both a reported and a pro forma basis.

Total revenues were $49.1 billion (reported) and $54.3 billion (pro forma) for fiscal 2005, as compared to total revenues of $19.8 billion (reported) and $56.0 billion (pro forma) for fiscal 2004. The increase in reported revenues was attributable to the addition of Sears revenues of $30.0 billion in fiscal 2005, partially offset by a decline in Kmart’s revenues of $0.7 billion, or 3.8%, due to a reduction in the total number of Kmart stores in operation and a comparable store sales decline of 1.2% as discussed below. The decline in pro forma revenues was primarily attributable to total revenue declines of 3.9% and 3.8% at Sears Domestic and Kmart, respectively, partially offset by a 5.3% revenue increase at Sears Canada, primarily due to the impact of favorable exchange rates. Total fiscal 2005 revenues also benefited from $153 million of sales being recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as a result of three additional days being included in the fiscal 2005 period due to the Company’s change from a Wednesday to a Saturday month end.

Domestic comparable store sales were down 5.3% in the aggregate for fiscal 2005, with Sears Domestic comparable store sales declining 8.4% and Kmart comparable store sales declining 1.2%. Kmart’s fiscal 2005 comparable store sales decline was primarily due to lower transaction volumes across most businesses. Apparel sales at Kmart increased in fiscal 2005 on a comparable store basis, but this improvement was more than offset by sales declines in both home goods and the food and drug business. The sharper decline in Sears Domestic’s fiscal 2005 comparable store sales relative to Kmart was due mainly to efforts initiated at Sears in 2005 to improve gross margins by reducing reliance on certain promotional events. Disappointing performance within Sears’ apparel business during 2005 was also a factor in the decline of Sears’ comparable store sales during fiscal 2005.

Gross margin was 27.4% (reported and pro forma) for fiscal 2005, as compared to 24.7% (reported) and 26.4% (pro forma) for fiscal 2004. The increase in reported gross margin was primarily attributable to the addition of Sears, which had a higher overall gross margin rate than Kmart, in fiscal 2005. The increase in pro forma margin in fiscal 2005, as compared to fiscal 2004, was primarily attributable to improvement in Sears Domestic’s gross margin rate, mainly as a result of improved inventory management and the utilization of more targeted clearance and promotional markdowns versus historical reliance on storewide events.

The selling and administrative expense rate was 22.0% (reported) and 22.4% (pro forma) for fiscal 2005, as compared to 20.2% (reported) and 22.4% (pro forma) for fiscal 2004. The increase in the reported selling and administrative expense rate was primarily attributable to the addition of Sears, which had a higher cost structure than Kmart, in fiscal 2005. On a pro forma basis, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues remained unchanged between fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004. While selling and administrative expenses decreased by $398 million in fiscal 2005, primarily as a function of reduced payroll expenditures and cost-saving initiatives, the selling and administrative expense rate was unchanged compared to fiscal 2004, as the impact of these reductions was offset by lower expense leverage given lower overall sales, as well as increases at Sears Canada in both associate stock-based compensation expense and marketing expense.

Depreciation and amortization was $932 million (reported) for fiscal 2005, as compared to $27 million (reported) for fiscal 2004. The increase was primarily attributable to the addition of Sears, which accounted for $885 million of the reported combined expense in fiscal 2005.

The Company realized gains on sales of assets of $39 million (reported) and $40 million (pro forma) for fiscal 2005, as compared to $946 million (reported) and $356 million (pro forma) for fiscal 2004. During fiscal 2004, the Company entered into multiple agreements with Home Depot to sell four properties and assign 14 leased properties for an aggregate purchase price of $271 million, resulting in a total gain on sale of $253 million. Also during fiscal 2004, Kmart sold four owned properties, assigned 45 leased properties and leased one owned store to Sears for a total purchase price of approximately $576 million, resulting in a gain of $599 million. This gain on transactions with Sears was excluded from the fiscal 2004 pro forma gain on sale of assets amount of $356 million. Additionally, the Company sold certain other real and personal property, resulting in net gains of $39 million and $94 million in fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004, respectively. Included within the fiscal 2004 gains were $22 million related to the sale of owned, or assignment of leased, properties, $18 million related

to the sale of the Company’s Trinidad subsidiary and its associated property, $12 million related to the sale of corporate airplanes and $42 million from sales of other real and personal property.

Restructuring charges were $111 million (reported and pro forma) for fiscal 2005 as compared to $0 million (reported) and $41 million (pro forma) for fiscal 2004. The fiscal 2005 charges included a $57 million charge for employee-related termination costs associated with the above-noted Sears Canada restructuring initiatives implemented during fiscal 2005, as well as $54 million at Kmart for relocation assistance and employee termination-related costs associated with Holdings’ home office integration efforts. The $41 million charge recorded in fiscal 2004 reflected a charge recorded by Sears in fiscal 2004 as part of a productivity initiative at that entity.

Fiscal 2005 included a $317 million gain on sale of business, which reflected a minority interest gain on the sale of Sears Canada’s Credit and Financial Services operations in November 2005 as discussed above.

Interest and investment income was $127 million (reported) and $159 million (pro forma) in fiscal 2005, as compared to $41 million (reported) and $153 million (pro forma) for fiscal 2004. The increase in reported interest and investment income was primarily attributable to the addition of Sears, which accounted for $62 million of the combined interest and investment income in fiscal 2005.

Interest expense was $323 million (reported) and $378 million (pro forma) in fiscal 2005, as compared to $146 million (reported) and $442 million (pro forma) for fiscal 2004. The increase in reported interest expense was a result of the inclusion of Sears debt in fiscal 2005, which accounted for $195 million of the combined interest expense in fiscal 2005, as well as additional interest expense incurred upon the conversion of Kmart’s 9% subordinated convertible notes, as further described in the “Uses and Sources of Liquidity” section below. The decline in pro forma interest expense was due primarily to lower average borrowings.

Other income is primarily comprised of bankruptcy-related recoveries. Bankruptcy-related recoveries decreased $19 million in fiscal 2005 and represented amounts recognized from vendors who had received cash payment for pre-petition obligations. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

The reported effective tax rate decreased to 36.4% in fiscal 2005 from 37.7% in fiscal 2004, with the decrease primarily attributable to the November 2005 sale of Sears Canada’s Credit and Financial Service business being taxed at a capital gains rate, lowering the effective tax rate for fiscal 2005. The pro forma effective tax rate increased to 37.3% in fiscal 2005 from 34.6% in fiscal 2004, with the lower fiscal 2004 effective rate attributable to the inclusion of Sears.

As noted above, effective January 27, 2005, the Company changed its method of accounting for certain indirect overhead costs from inventoriable costs to period expenses and as a result recorded a charge of $90 million, net of taxes, in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 for the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

Business Segment Results

Holdings has integrated many Kmart and Sears store-support functions to more efficiently serve both formats; however, for purposes of reviewing operating performance and making asset-allocation decisions, senior management has continued to utilize principally the reporting structures that existed independently for Sears and Kmart prior to the Merger. As a result, the following discussion of the Company’s business segments is organized into three segments: Kmart, Sears Domestic and Sears Canada.

Kmart

Kmart results and key statistics were as follows:
