Explanatory Note

This Amendment to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Nordstrom, Inc. (the “Company”) for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2004, is being filed to correct two errors in our previously issued financial statements: the statements of cash flows presentation of property incentive cash inflows and the balance sheet classification of leased assets that were previously treated as sale-leaseback transactions. In addition, we have reclassified balances in our previously issued financial statements to conform to our current presentation. The principal reclassification items relate to the balance sheet and cash flow presentation of the following: our Auction Rate Securities, our presentation of outstanding checks drawn on our disbursement banks, and our third party credit card receivables. We also have a reclassification in our statements of earnings related to our loyalty program. See Note 25 in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2003 Amended Financial Statements, incorporated by reference herein from Exhibit 13.1 of this report, for a discussion of these corrections and reclassifications, and a reconciliation of amounts previously reported to those shown herein. We have also revised our discussion in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and have updated our lease accounting policy disclosure in Note 1. Information not affected by the corrections and reclassifications as described in Note 25 remains unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time of the original filing of the Form 10-K on March 30, 2004. Our previously reported net earnings, earnings per share and shareholders’ equity are not impacted by these corrections and reclassifications.

PART I

Item 1. Business.

We incorporated in the State of Washington in 1946 as the successor to a retail shoe business that started in 1901. As of January 31, 2004, we operated 92 large specialty stores, selling a wide selection of apparel, shoes and accessories for women, men and children.

We also operated 49 stores under the name “Nordstrom Rack” and one clearance store under the name “Last Chance.” The Nordstrom Rack stores purchase merchandise directly from manufacturers, as well as serving, in part, as outlets for clearance merchandise from our large specialty stores.

We also operated one free-standing shoe store under the name “Nordstrom” and five U.S. specialty boutiques under the name “Façonnable”. As a result of the acquisition of Façonnable, S.A.S. of Nice, France in October 2000, we also operated 31 Façonnable boutiques located primarily in Europe. Façonnable is a wholesaler and retailer of high quality men’s and women’s apparel and accessories.

We generate catalog and Internet sales through Nordstrom Direct (formerly known as Nordstrom.com) and service charge income through Nordstrom Credit, Inc.

In March 2004, we opened one large specialty store in Charlotte, NC. In addition, we plan to open a large specialty store in Miami, FL in the fall of 2004. We are scheduled to open four large specialty stores in 2005, located in Dallas, TX; San Antonio, TX; Irvine, CA; and Atlanta, GA.

The west coast and the east coast of the United States are the markets in which we have the largest presence. An economic downturn or other significant event within one of these markets may have a material effect on our operating results.

We purchase merchandise from many suppliers, no one of which accounted for more than 2% of 2003 net purchases. We believe that we are not dependent on any one supplier, and consider our relations with our suppliers to be satisfactory.

We have approximately 102 registered trademarks. The loss or abandonment of the Federally registered names “Nordstrom” or “Façonnable” would materially impact our business. The loss or abandonment of the Federally registered trademarks “Brass Plum”, “Baby N”, “Caslon”, “Classiques Entier”, “Frenchi”, “Halogen” and “Rubbish” may impact our business, but not in a material manner. With the exception of the above-mentioned Federally registered trademarks, the loss or abandonment of any particular trademark would have little, if any, impact on our business.

Due to our anniversary sale in July and holidays in December, sales are higher in the second and fourth quarters of the fiscal year than in the first and third quarters. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2004, we regularly employed on a full or part-time basis an average of approximately 46,000 employees. Due to the seasonal nature of our business, employment increased to approximately 54,000 employees in July 2003 and 52,000 in December 2003.

We offer our customers a liberal return policy at our full-line stores. Nordstrom Rack stores accept returns up to 30 days from the date of purchase. In general, our return policy is somewhat more generous than industry standards. We properly accrue for estimated sales returns based on our historical knowledge of return trends. We strive to maintain our inventory at optimum levels that enable us to maximize sales while minimizing markdowns.

Item 1. Business (continued).

Our business is highly competitive. Our stores compete with other national, regional and local retail establishments within our operating areas which carry similar lines of merchandise, including department stores, specialty stores, boutiques, and mail order and Internet businesses. Our specific competitors vary from market to market. We believe the principal methods of competing in our industry include customer service, value, quality of product, fashion, advertising, store location and depth of selection.

We file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). You may read and copy any material we file with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. In addition, the SEC maintains an Internet website at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

Our Internet website is http://www.nordstrom.com. We make available free of charge on or through our Internet website our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC.

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code of Ethics”) and Corporate Governance Guidelines, as required by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and the rules of the SEC. We have posted on our website our Code of Ethics, Corporate Governance Guidelines, and our Committee Charters for Audit, Compensation, Corporate Governance and Nominating, Executive, and Finance committees.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. In seeking to minimize risk, we manage exposure through our regular operating and financing activities. We do not use financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and are not party to any leveraged financial instruments.

Interest rate exposure is managed through our mix of fixed and variable rate borrowings. Short-term borrowing and investing activities generally bear interest at variable rates, but because they have maturities of three months or less, we believe that the risk of material loss is low, and that the carrying amount approximated fair value.

During 2003, we have effectively converted our $250 million 5.63% fixed rate debt to a variable rate through the use of an interest rate swap. Under the agreement, we received a fixed rate of 5.63% and paid a variable rate based on LIBOR plus a margin of 2.3% set at six-month intervals (3.945% at January 31, 2004). The swap will expire in 2009.

Page 10 of 32

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk (continued)

In 2002 and 2003, we received $4.9 million and $2.3 million for the sale of two interest rate swaps. The first swap converted our $300 million, 8.95% fixed-rate debt to variable rate, while the second swap converted our $250 million, 5.63% fixed-rate debt to variable rate. The cash proceeds from each of the swaps will be recognized as interest income evenly over the remaining life of the related debt.

The table below presents information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, which consist of debt obligations and interest rate swaps for the year ended January 31, 2004. For debt obligations, the table presents principal amounts, at book value, by maturity date, and related weighted average interest rates. For interest rate swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates. Notional amounts are the predetermined dollar principal on which the exchanged interest payments are based.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The majority of our revenue, expense and capital expenditures are transacted in U.S. dollars. However, we periodically enter into foreign currency purchase orders for apparel and shoes denominated in Euros. We use forward contracts to hedge against fluctuations in foreign currency prices. The fair value of our outstanding forward contracts at January 31, 2004 was not material. The use of derivatives is limited to only those financial instruments that have been authorized by our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer.

In addition, the functional currency of Façonnable, S.A.S. of Nice, France is the Euro. Assets and liabilities of Façonnable are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the period. Income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at an average exchange rate during the period. Foreign currency gains and losses from the translation of Façonnable’s balance sheet and income statement are included in other comprehensive earnings. Foreign currency gains or losses from certain intercompany loans are recorded in service charge income and other, net.

We considered the potential impact of a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates and we believe that such a change would not have a material impact on our cash flows of financial instruments that are sensitive to foreign currency exchange risk. The model measured the change in cash flows arising from the 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates, and covered long-term debt denominated in Euros.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

The information required under this item is included in the following sections of our 2003 Amended Financial Report, which sections are incorporated by reference herein from Exhibit 13.1 of this report:

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, we performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, our President and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in the timely recording, processing, summarizing and reporting of material financial and non-financial information.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In coming to the conclusion that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of January 31, 2004, our management considered, among other things, the control deficiencies related to the cash flow statement classification of property incentives and the balance sheet classification of leased assets that were previously treated as sale-leaseback transactions, which resulted in this restatement of our previously issued financial statements, as disclosed in Note 25 of our 2003 Amended Financial Statements. After reviewing and analyzing the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, “Materiality”, Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, “Accounting

Page 12 of 32

Changes”, and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2 “An Audit of Internal Control over Financial Reporting Performed in Conjunction with an Audit of Financial Statements” and taking into consideration that the restatement adjustments did not impact our net sales, net earnings, diluted earnings per share, total cash flows or shareholders’ equity, our management concluded that the control deficiencies that resulted in this restatement of the previously issued financial statements was not a material weakness. Following our identification of these control deficiencies, we have corrected our process for preparing our statements of cash flows by performing a more thorough review of the classifications of our cash flows to comply with SFAS No. 95 “Statement of Cash Flows” and SFAS No. 102 “Statement of Cash Flows – Exemption of Certain Enterprises and Classification of Cash Flows from Certain Securities Acquired for Resale – An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 95.” We have also corrected our process for evaluating sale-leasebacks by incorporating a more thorough review of SFAS No. 98 “Accounting for Leases” and SFAS No. 66 “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate” to any potential sale-leasebacks. In addition, we will continue to monitor GAAP developments and changes in our business to reduce the risk of classification errors in our statements of cash flows and balance sheets.
