                  SEARS ROEBUCK ACCEPTANCE CORP.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          (unaudited)

1. Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited interim financial statements of Sears Roebuck Acceptance
Corp. ("SRAC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sears, Roebuck and Co. ("Sears"),
reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the
results for the interim periods presented.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The significant
accounting policies used in the presentation of these financial statements are
consistent with the summary of significant accounting policies set forth in
SRAC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 52 weeks ended December 28, 2002, and
these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes found therein.  The results of operations for the interim
periods should not be considered indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year.

2. Back-up Liquidity

SRAC continued to provide support for 100% of its outstanding commercial paper
through its investment portfolio and committed credit facilities.  SRAC's
investment portfolio,which consists of cash and cash equivalents, fluctuated
from a low of $1.1 billion to a high of $2.4 billion in the third quarter of
2003. On September 27, 2003, SRAC's committed credit facilities consisted
of a $3.5 billion unsecured 364-day revolving credit facility expiring
February 23, 2004 which includes an option to extend the repayment of
borrowings, if any, through February 2005. Effective November 3, 2003,
SRAC amended the facility extending the termination date to May 2004
for consenting lenders and modifying the option to extend the repayment
of any borrowings to November 2004.  The amendment also provides for
the commitment amount under this facility to be reduced to $2.5 billion
30 days following the sale of Sears' Credit and Financial Products
business.


As of September 27, 2003, there have been no outstanding borrowings
related to this credit facility.

3. Legal Proceedings

On June 16, 2003, a lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Illinois against Sears, certain of its officers,
and SRAC, alleging that certain public announcements and SEC filings by
Sears and SRAC concerning Sears credit card business violated Sections 10(b)
and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rule 10b-5 promulgated
thereunder, and Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, and seeking damages.
An amended complaint was filed on October 16, 2003, naming additional
individuals and certain investment banks as defendants.  The plaintiffs
purport to represent a class of noteholders who purchased certain notes
issued by SRAC between October 24, 2001 and October 17, 2002, whether
by prospectus or otherwise. SRAC believes that these claims lack merit
and is defending against them vigorously.


                                          4





The consequences of this matter are not presently determinable but,
in the opinion of management of SRAC after consulting with legal counsel
and taking into account insurance, the ultimate liability is not expected
to have a material effect on annual results of operations, financial position,
liquidity or capital resources of SRAC.


4. Subsequent Events

On October 17, 2003, SRAC commenced cash tender offers to purchase any
and all of its unsecured public term debt securities maturing after 2003,
which includes 174 series of securities with an aggregate principal
amount of approximately $10.7 billion. The offers are expected to expire
on November 14, 2003, unless previously terminated or extended.  If all
of the $10.7 billion of debt is retired through the cash tender offers,
the Company expects to realize a $695 million after-tax loss on the
extinguishment of that debt in the fourth quarter of 2003.  This loss
will consist of the expected premium paid to retire the debt and the
writeoff of unamortized debt issuance costs.

On November 3, 2003, Sears completed the sale of its domestic Credit
and Financial Products business to Citicorp. The sale generated total
proceeds of $32 billion, consisting of the assumption of $10 billion
of securitized debt by Citicorp and cash proceeds received by Sears
of $22 billion.  Proceeds from Sears' sale of the Credit and Financial
Products business are intended to be earmarked primarily to retire debt
that supported the domestic credit card receivables, return cash to Sears
shareholders; and for general corporate purposes.  Sears may use acquired
funds from the sale of its Credit business to redeem a portion of its
Sears Note to fund the repayment of SRAC's tendered debt.

As a result of Sears' sale of its Credit and Financial Products
business, on November 3, 2003, Sears executed guarantees pursuant to
which it has agreed to guarantee (1) SRAC's debt securities issued or
to be issued under the indenture dated as of May 15, 1995 between SRAC
and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as trustee, and the indenture dated as of
October 1, 2002 between SRAC and BNY Midwest Trust Company, as trustee;
and (2) SRAC's commercial paper notes issued or to be issued under
its commercial paper program.

5. Medium-term Notes and Discrete Underwritten Debt

Medium-term notes and discrete underwritten debt are issued with
either a floating rate indexed to LIBOR or a fixed rate.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of
   Sears Roebuck Acceptance Corp.:


We have reviewed the accompanying statements of financial
position of Sears Roebuck Acceptance Corp. (a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Sears, Roebuck and Co.) as of September 27, 2003 and
September 28, 2002, and the related statements of income and
comprehensive income for the 13 week and 39 week periods
then ended and cash flows for the 39 week periods then
ended.  These interim financial statements are the responsibility
of Sears Roebuck Acceptance Corp.'s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A
review of interim financial information consists principally of
applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons
responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially
less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express
such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to such interim financial statements
for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America, the statement
of financial position of Sears Roebuck Acceptance Corp. as of
December 28, 2002 and the related statements of income and comprehensive
income, shareholder's equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein); and in our report dated February 14, 2003, except for
Note 5, as to which the date is February 24, 2003, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements.  In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying statement of financial
position as of December 28, 2002 is fairly stated, in all material
respects, in relation to the statement of financial position from which
it has been derived.

ITEM 2.  ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the third quarter of 2003, SRAC revenues increased to $262 million from
$257 million in the comparable 2002 period. For the 39 week period ended
September 27, 2003, SRAC's revenues increased to $777 million from $739 million
for the comparable 2002 period. The increase in revenues resulted from
increases in average earning asset levels of $300 million and $800 million
in the 13 and 39 week periods of 2003 versus the 2002 periods.

SRAC's interest and related expenses, including losses associated with
the early extinguishment of debt, increased 1% to $208 million from
$205 million and 5% to $618 million from $588 million for the 13 and 39 week
periods of 2003, respectively, as compared to the comparable 2002 periods.
Interest and related expenses increased during the 13 and 39 week period
of 2003 due to a loss on the early extinguishment of debt related to the
writeoff of unamortized issue expense of $7 million and increases in
average long-term debt levels. The loss on debt extinguishment related
to a $250 million 7% note due March 1, 2038 and redeemed September 1, 2003.
SRAC's average long-term debt increased to $11.9 billion and $11.6 billion
in the 13 and 39 weeks of 2003, compared with $11.0 billion and
$10.4 million for the same periods in 2002. Increases in interest and
related expenses attributed to long-term debt levels were partially
offset by reductions in average short-term debt levels and overall cost
of funds. SRAC's short-term borrowings averaged $3.4 billion in the
third quarter and $3.2 billion in the 39 week period of 2003, compared
to $4.1 billion and $3.8 billion for the respective 2002 periods.
SRAC's cost of short-term funds averaged 1.35% in the third quarter
and 1.57% in the first nine months of 2003 compared to 2.13% and 2.27%
for the same periods in 2002. SRAC's cost of long-term funds averaged 6.14%
and 6.36% in the 13 and 39 weeks of 2003 compared to 6.53% and 6.54% for
the comparable 2002 periods.

SRAC's net income of $35 million and $103 million for the 13 and 39 weeks
of 2003, respectively, increased from the comparable 2002 period amounts of
$34 million and $98 million.


SRAC's ratio of earnings to fixed charges for both the 13 and 39 weeks of
2003 was 1.26, compared to 1.25 and 1.26 for the comparable 2002 periods.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company's management, including Keith E. Trost, President
(principal executive officer) and George F. Slook, Vice President, Finance
(principal financial officer), have evaluated the effectiveness of the
Company's "disclosure controls and procedures,"as such term is defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon their
evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal
financial officer concluded that, at the end of the period
covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that
 the information required to be disclosed in the reports that
the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") (1) is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms,
and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company's
management, including its principal executive and
principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.  In addition,
based on that evaluation, no change in the Company's
internal control over financial reporting occurred during the
quarter ended September 27, 2003 that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION




     Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

              On June 16, 2003, a lawsuit was filed in the United
              States District Court for the Northern District of
              Illinois against Sears, Roebuck and Co. ("Sears"),
              certain of its officers, and SRAC, alleging that
              certain public announcements and SEC filings by
              Sears and SRAC concerning Sears credit card business
              violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities
              Exchange Act of 1934, Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder,
              and Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, and
              seeking damages. An amended complaint was filed on
              October 16, 2003, naming additional individuals and
              certain investment banks as defendants.  The plaintiffs
              purport to represent a class of noteholders who purchased
              certain notes issued by SRAC between October 24, 2001
              and October 17, 2002, whether by prospectus or otherwise.
              SRAC believes that these claims lack merit and is
              defending against them vigorously.

              The consequences of this matter are not presently
              determinable but, in the opinion of management of
              SRAC after consulting with legal counsel and taking
              into account insurance, the ultimate liability is
              not expected to have a material effect on annual
              results of operations, financial position, liquidity
              or capital resources of SRAC.



     Item 6.  Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K

                 Index" are filed as part of this

         (b) Reports on Form 8-K:

             There were no current reports on Form 8-K filed by SRAC
             during the quarter for which this report is filed.
