PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

General

Dillard Department Stores, Inc. ("Company" or "Registrant") is an outgrowth
of a department store originally founded in 1938 by William Dillard. The
Company was incorporated in Delaware in 1964. The Company operates retail
department stores located primarily in the southwest, southeast and midwest.

The department store business is highly competitive. The Company has several
competitors on a national and regional level as well as numerous competitors
on a local level. Many factors enter into competition for the consumer's
patronage, including price, quality, style, service, product mix, convenience
and credit availability. The Company's earnings depend to a significant
extent on the results of operations for the last quarter of its fiscal year.
Due to holiday buying patterns, sales for that period average approximately
one-third of annual sales.

For additional information with respect to the Registrant's business,
reference is made to information contained on page 1, inside front cover
under the heading "States with Stores", and Note 2, "Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements," on pages 31 and 32 of the Report, which information is

subsidiary or from third parties. The Registrant's third-party store leases

with a guaranteed minimum annual rent, while the lease terms between the
Registrant and its wholly-owned subsidiary vary. In general, the Company
pays the cost of insurance, maintenance and any increase in real estate taxes
related to these leases. At year end there were 227 stores in operation with
gross square footage of 34,900,000. The gross square footage of owned
properties was 22,700,000. For additional information with respect to the
