1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Macy's, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") is an omnichannel retail organization operating stores and Internet websites under two brands (Macy's and Bloomingdale's) that sell a wide range of merchandise, including apparel and accessories (men's, women's and children's), cosmetics, home furnishings and other consumer goods. The Company's operations include approximately 840 stores, including twelve Bloomingdale's Outlets, in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Guam and Puerto Rico, as well as macys.com and bloomingdales.com. In addition, Bloomingdale's in Dubai, United Arab Emirates is operated under a license agreement with Al Tayer Insignia, a company of Al Tayer Group, LLC.

A description of the Company's significant accounting policies is included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013 (the "2012 10-K"). The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto in the 2012 10-K.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainties, which may result in actual amounts differing from reported amounts.

The Consolidated Financial Statements for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company.

Seasonality

Because of the seasonal nature of the retail business, the results of operations for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012 (which do not include the Christmas season) are not necessarily indicative of such results for the full fiscal year.

Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income represents the change in equity during a period from sources other than transactions with shareholders and, as such, includes net income. For the Company, the only other component of total comprehensive income for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012 is the amortization of post employment and postretirement plan items. These reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive loss are included in the computation of net period benefit costs and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 4, "Benefit Plans," for further information.

2. Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:



	13 Weeks Ended
	May 4, 2013					April 28, 2012
	Net Income				Shares	Net Income				Shares
	(millions, except per share data)
Net income and average number of shares outstanding	$	217			387.0	$	181			415.4
Shares to be issued under deferred compensation and other plans					1.2					1.7
	$	217			388.2	$	181			417.1
Basic earnings per share			$	.56				$	.43
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units					6.3					7.2
	$	217			394.5	$	181			424.3
Diluted earnings per share			$	.55				$	.43

In addition to the stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units reflected in the foregoing tables, stock options to purchase 10.9 million shares of common stock, 237,000 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units relating to 1.8 million shares of common stock were outstanding at May 4, 2013, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 because their inclusion would have been antidilutive or they were subject to performance conditions that had not been met.

In addition to the stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units reflected in the foregoing tables, stock options to purchase 8.3 million shares of common stock, 250,000 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units relating to 2.5 million shares of common stock were outstanding at April 28, 2012, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 because their inclusion would have been antidilutive or they were subject to performance conditions that had not been met.

3. Financing Activities

The following table shows the detail of debt repayments:



	13 Weeks Ended
	May 4, 2013		April 28, 2012
	(millions)
5.35% Senior notes due 2012	$	—	$	616

9.75% amortizing debentures due 2021	1		1
Capital leases and other obligations	2		3
	$	5	$	795

On March 29, 2012, the Company redeemed the $173 million of 8.0% senior debentures due July 15, 2012, as allowed under the terms of the indenture. The price for the redemption was calculated pursuant to the indenture and resulted in the recognition of additional interest expense of $4 million. In addition, the Company repaid $616 million of 5.35% senior notes due March 15, 2012 at maturity.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

(Unaudited)

During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, the Company repurchased approximately 8.4 million shares of its common stock pursuant to existing stock purchase authorizations for a total of approximately $360 million. As of May 4, 2013, the Company had $1,142 million of authorization remaining under its share repurchase program. On May 14, 2013, the Company's board of directors approved an additional $1,500 million in authorization to purchase common stock, bringing the Company's remaining authorization under its share repurchase program including this increase to $2,642 million. The Company may continue or, from time to time, suspend repurchases of shares under its share repurchase program, depending on prevailing market conditions, alternate uses of capital and other factors.

The Company entered into a credit agreement with certain financial institutions on May 10, 2013 providing for revolving credit

borrowings and letters of credit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1,500 million (which may be increased to $1,750 million at the option of the Company, subject to the willingness of existing or new lenders to provide commitments for such additional financing) outstanding at any particular time. This agreement is set to expire May 10, 2018 and replaces a $1,500 million facility which was set to expire June 20, 2015. As of and during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under its then existing credit agreement, and as of the date of this report, the Company does not expect to borrow under its new credit agreement during fiscal 2013.

4. Benefit Plans

The Company has a funded defined benefit plan ("Pension Plan") and a defined contribution plan, which cover substantially all employees who work 1,000 hours or more in a year. Effective January 1, 2012, the Pension Plan was closed to new participants, with limited exceptions. The Company also has an unfunded defined benefit supplementary retirement plan ("SERP"), which provides benefits, for certain employees, in excess of qualified plan limitations. Effective January 2, 2012, the SERP was closed to new participants. After December 31, 2013, with limited exceptions, employees will no longer earn future pension service credits under the Pension Plan and SERP, and retirement benefits attributable to service after that date will be provided solely through defined contribution plans.

In addition, certain retired employees currently are provided with specified health care and life insurance benefits ("Postretirement Obligations"). Eligibility requirements for such benefits vary, but generally state that benefits are available to eligible employees who were hired prior to a certain date and retire after a certain age with specified years of service. Certain employees are subject to having such benefits modified or terminated.

In March 2010, President Obama signed into law the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act" and the "Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010" (the "2010 Acts"). The 2010 Acts contain provisions which impact the accounting for postretirement obligations. Based on the analysis to date, the impact of the provisions in the 2010 Acts on the Company's postretirement obligations has not and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the 2010 Acts on the active and retiree benefit plans offered by the Company.

5. Fair Value Measurements

The following table shows the Company's financial assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level within the hierarchy as defined by applicable accounting standards:



	May 4, 2013								April 28, 2012
			Fair Value Measurements								Fair Value Measurements
	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
	(millions)
Marketable equity and debt securities	$	64	$	—	$	64	$	—	$	76	$	—	$	76	$	—

Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, short-term debt, merchandise accounts payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long-term debt. With the exception of long-term debt, the carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term debt, excluding capitalized leases, are generally estimated based on quoted market prices for identical or similar instruments, and are classified as Level 2 measurements within the hierarchy as defined by applicable accounting standards.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

For purposes of the following discussion, all references to "first quarter of 2013" and "first quarter of 2012" are to the Company's 13-week fiscal periods ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, respectively.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report, as well as the financial and other information included in the 2012 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's plans, estimates and beliefs. The Company's actual results could materially differ from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to those differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this report (particularly in "Forward-Looking Statements") and in the 2012 10-K (particularly in "Risk Factors").

Overview

The Company is an omnichannel retail organization operating stores and websites under two brands (Macy's and Bloomingdale's) that sell a wide range of merchandise, including apparel and accessories (men's, women's and children's), cosmetics, home furnishings and other consumer goods. The Company's operations include approximately 840 stores, including twelve Bloomingdale's Outlets, in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Guam and Puerto Rico, as well as macys.com and bloomingdales.com. In addition, Bloomingdale's in Dubai, United Arab Emirates is operated under a license agreement with Al Tayer Insignia, a company of Al Tayer Group, LLC.

The Company is focused on three key strategies for continued growth in sales, earnings and cash flow in the years ahead: (i) maximizing the My Macy's localization initiative; (ii) driving the omnichannel business; and (iii) embracing customer centricity, including engaging customers on the selling floor through the MAGIC Selling program.

Through the My Macy's localization initiative, the Company has invested in talent, technology and marketing which ensures that core customers surrounding each Macy's store find merchandise assortments, size ranges, marketing programs and shopping experiences that are custom-tailored to their needs. My Macy's has provided for more local decision-making in every Macy's community, and involves tailoring merchandise assortments, space allocations, service levels, visual merchandising and special events on a store-by-store basis.

The Company's omnichannel strategy allows customers to shop seamlessly in stores, online and via mobile devices. A pivotal part of the omnichannel strategy is the Company's ability to allow associates in any store to sell a product that may be unavailable locally by selecting merchandise from other stores or online fulfillment centers for shipment to the customer's door. Likewise, the Company's online fulfillment centers can draw on store inventories nationwide to fill orders that originate on the Internet or via mobile devices. By the end of fiscal 2013, approximately 500 Macy's stores are expected to be fulfilling orders from other stores, the Internet and mobile devices, compared to 292 stores as of February 2, 2013.

Macy's MAGIC Selling program is an approach to customer engagement that helps Macy's to better understand the needs of customers, as well as to provide options and advice. This comprehensive ongoing training and coaching program is designed to improve the in-store shopping experience.

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company opened two new Macy's stores. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company opened one new Macy's store and also expanded into an additional Macy's location in an existing mall. The Company intends to open one additional new Macy's store, a Macy's replacement store, a new Bloomingdale's store, and a Bloomingdale's Outlet store in the remainder of fiscal 2013.

The Company's operations are impacted by competitive pressures from department stores, specialty stores, mass merchandisers, Internet websites and all other retail channels. The Company's operations are also impacted by general consumer spending levels, including the impact of general economic conditions, consumer disposable income levels, consumer confidence levels, the availability, cost and level of consumer debt, the costs of basic necessities and other goods and the effects of weather or natural disasters and other factors over which the Company has little or no control.

In recent years, consumer spending levels have been affected to varying degrees by a number of factors, including modest economic growth, a slowly improving housing market, a rising stock market, uncertainty regarding governmental spending and tax policies, high unemployment levels and tightened consumer credit. These factors have affected to varying degrees the amount of funds that consumers are willing and able to spend for discretionary purchases, including purchases of some of the merchandise offered by the Company.

MACY'S, INC.

The effects of economic conditions have been, and may continue to be, experienced differently, or at different times, in the various geographic regions in which the Company operates, in relation to the different types of merchandise that the Company offers for sale, or in relation to the Company's Macy's-branded and Bloomingdale's-branded operations. All economic conditions, however, ultimately affect the Company's overall operations.

Comparison of the First Quarter of 2013 and the First Quarter of 2012

Net Income

Net income for the first quarter of 2013 increased compared to net income for the first quarter of 2012, reflecting the benefits of the key strategies at Macy's.

Net Sales

Net sales for the first quarter of 2013 increased $244 million or 4.0% compared to the first quarter of 2012. On a comparable basis, net sales for the first quarter of 2013 were up 3.8% compared to the first quarter of 2012. The Company continues to benefit from the successful execution of the My Macy's localization, Omnichannel and MAGIC selling strategies. Geographically, sales in the first quarter of 2013 were strongest in the southern regions. By family of business, sales in the first quarter of 2013 were strongest in handbags, watches, active apparel, men's, home textiles, luggage, furniture and mattresses. Sales in the first quarter of 2013 were less strong in women's apparel and the millennial businesses. The Company calculates comparable sales as sales from stores in operation throughout 2012 and 2013 and all Internet sales. Comparable sales exclude licensed department income, shipping and handling fees, sales of private brand goods directly to third party retailers and sales of excess inventory to third parties. Stores undergoing remodeling, expansion or relocation remain in the comparable sales calculation unless the store is closed for a significant period of time. Definitions and calculations of comparable sales figures differ among companies in the retail industry.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the first quarter of 2013 increased $154 million from the first quarter of 2012 and was flat as a percent to net sales compared to the first quarter of 2012. The application of the last-in, first-out (LIFO) retail inventory method did not result in the recognition of any LIFO charges or credits affecting cost of sales in either period.

MACY'S, INC.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the first quarter of 2013 increased $46 million or 2.3% from the first quarter of 2012. The SG&A rate as a percent to net sales was 40 basis points lower in the first quarter of 2013, as compared to the first quarter of 2012, reflecting increased net sales. SG&A expenses in the first quarter of 2013 were impacted by higher selling costs as a result of stronger sales and continued investments in the Company's omnichannel operations, partially offset by higher income from credit operations. Income from credit operations was $166 million in the first quarter of 2013, compared to $143 million in the first quarter of 2012, reflecting continued improvement in collection rates. The Company expects to continue to experience higher income from credit operations in the near term, however the increase is expected to be lower in the third and fourth quarters of 2013 as compared to the first and second quarters of 2013.

Net Interest Expense

Net interest expense for the first quarter of 2013 decreased $15 million from the first quarter of 2012. Net interest expense for the first quarter of 2013 benefited from lower levels of borrowings and lower rates on outstanding borrowings as compared to the first quarter of 2012.

Effective Tax Rate

The Company's effective tax rate of 35.8% for the first quarter of 2013 and 34.9% for the first quarter of 2012 differ from the federal income tax statutory rate of 35%, and on a comparative basis, principally because of the effect of state and local income taxes, including the settlement of various tax issues and tax examinations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash from operations, cash on hand and the credit facility described below.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2013 was $298 million, compared to $265 million provided in the first quarter of 2012, reflecting higher net income in the first quarter of 2013.

Investing Activities

Net cash used by investing activities was $107 million for the first quarter of 2013, compared to net cash used by investing activities of $202 million for the first quarter of 2012. Investing activities for the first quarter of 2013 include purchases of property and equipment totaling $65 million and capitalized software of $50 million, compared to purchases of property and equipment totaling $168 million and capitalized software of $46 million for the first quarter of 2012. Purchases of property and equipment during the first quarter of 2012 included the purchase of two parcels of the Macy's flagship Union Square location in San Francisco.

Financing Activities

Net cash used by the Company for financing activities was $275 million for the first quarter of 2013, including $336 million for the acquisition of the Company's common stock, primarily under its share repurchase program, the payment of $78 million of cash dividends and the repayment of $5 million of debt, partially offset by $100 million from the issuance of common stock, primarily related to the exercise of stock options, and an increase in outstanding checks of $44 million.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company repurchased approximately 8.4 million shares of its common stock pursuant to existing stock purchase authorizations for a total of approximately $360 million. As of May 4, 2013, the Company had $1,142 million of authorization remaining under its share repurchase program. On May 14, 2013, the Company's board of directors approved an additional $1,500 million in authorization to purchase common stock, bringing the Company's remaining authorization under its share repurchase program including this increase to $2,642 million. The Company may continue or, from time to time, suspend repurchases of shares under its share repurchase program, depending on prevailing market conditions, alternate uses of capital and other factors.

Net cash used by the Company for financing activities was $999 million for the first quarter of 2012, and included the repayment of $795 million of debt, $246 million for the acquisition of the Company's common stock under its share repurchase program and to cover employee tax liabilities related to stock plan activity, the payment of $83 million of cash dividends, and a decrease in outstanding checks of $16 million, partially offset by the issuance of $141 million of common stock, primarily related to the exercise of stock options. The debt repaid during the first quarter of 2012 included $616 million of 5.35% senior notes due March 15, 2012 paid at maturity and the early redemption on March 29, 2012 of $173 million of 8.0% senior debentures due July 15, 2012.

MACY'S, INC.

As of May 4, 2013, the Company was a party to a credit agreement with certain financial institutions providing for revolving credit borrowings and letters of credit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1,500 million (which amount may be increased to $1,750 million at the option of the Company, subject to the willingness of existing or new lenders to provide commitments for such additional financing) outstanding at any particular time.

The Company entered into a new credit agreement with certain financial institutions on May 10, 2013 providing for revolving credit borrowings and letters of credit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1,500 million (which may be increased to $1,750 million at the option of the Company, subject to the willingness of existing or new lenders to provide commitments for such additional financing) outstanding at any particular time. This agreement is set to expire May 10, 2018 and replaces the prior agreement which was set to expire June 20, 2015. As of May 4, 2013 and throughout all of the first quarter of 2013, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under its then existing credit agreement, and as of the date of this report, the Company does not expect to borrow under its new credit agreement during fiscal 2013.

The credit agreements require the Company to maintain a specified interest coverage ratio for the latest four quarters of no less than 3.25 and a specified leverage ratio as of and for the latest four quarters of no more than 3.75. The Company's interest coverage ratio for the first quarter of 2013 was 8.77 and its leverage ratio at May 4, 2013 was 1.79, in each case as calculated in accordance with the credit agreement.

On May 14, 2013, the Company's board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of 25 cents per share on its common stock, payable July 1, 2013 to Macy's shareholders of record at the close of business on June 14, 2013. This dividend is an increase from the previous quarterly dividend rate of 20 cents per share and represents the third increase in the dividend in the past two years.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Outlook

Management believes that, with respect to the Company's current operations, cash on hand and funds from operations, together with its credit facility and other capital resources, will be sufficient to cover the Company's reasonably foreseeable working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements and other cash requirements in both the near term and over the longer term. The Company's ability to generate funds from operations may be affected by numerous factors, including general economic conditions and levels of consumer confidence and demand; however, the Company expects to be able to manage its working capital levels and capital expenditure amounts so as to maintain sufficient levels of liquidity. To the extent that the Company's cash balances from time to time exceed amounts that are needed to fund its immediate liquidity requirements, the Company will consider alternative uses of some or all of such excess cash. Such alternative uses may include, among others, the redemption or repurchase of debt, equity or other securities through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, and the funding of pension related obligations. Depending upon its actual and anticipated sources and uses of liquidity, conditions in the capital markets and other factors, the Company will from time to time consider the issuance of debt or other securities, or other possible capital markets transactions, for the purpose of raising capital which could be used to refinance current indebtedness or for other corporate purposes including the redemption or repurchase of debt, equity or other securities through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, and the funding of pension related obligations.

The Company intends from time to time to consider additional acquisitions of, and investments in, retail businesses and other complementary assets and companies. Acquisition transactions, if any, are expected to be financed from one or more of the following sources: cash on hand, cash from operations, borrowings under existing or new credit facilities and the issuance of long-term debt or other securities, including common stock.

MACY'S, INC.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures.

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have carried out, as of May 4, 2013, with the participation of the Company's management, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports the Company files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	Legal Proceedings.

On October 3, 2007, Ebrahim Shanehchian, an alleged participant in the Macy's, Inc. Profit Sharing 401(k) Investment Plan (now known as the Macy's, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Investment Plan) (the "401(k) Plan"), filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio on behalf of persons who participated in the 401(k) Plan and The May Department Stores Company Profit Sharing Plan (the "May Plan") between February 27, 2005 and the present. The lawsuit has been conditionally certified as a class action. The complaint alleges that the Company, as well as members of the Company's board of directors and certain members of senior management, breached various fiduciary duties owed under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA") to participants in the 401(k) Plan and the May Plan, by making false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operations and prospects in relation to the integration of the acquired May operations, resulting in supposed "artificial inflation" of the Company's stock price and "imprudent investment" by the 401(k) Plan and the May Plan in Macy's stock. The plaintiff seeks an unspecified amount of compensatory damages and costs. The parties have reached an agreement to settle the matter. On May 8, 2013, the court granted final approval of the settlement terms and entered a judgment terminating the litigation.

The Company and its subsidiaries are also involved in various proceedings that are incidental to the normal course of their businesses. As of the date of this report, the Company does not expect that any of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


Item 1A.	Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013 as filed with the SEC.

(1)

Commencing in January 2000, the Company's board of directors has from time to time approved authorizations to purchase, in the aggregate, up to $12,000 million of Common Stock as of May 4, 2013.
