                        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
         ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


Review of Results:

Second Quarter and First Six Months 1995
Second Quarter and First Six Months 1994

    Bethlehem Steel Corporation reported second quarter net income of $60
million, or $.45 per common share, a $34 million improvement over net income
of $26 million, or $.14 per common share, for the second quarter of 1994.

    For the first six months of 1995, net income was $113 million, or $.83 per
common share, a $74 million improvement over net income of $39 million, or
$.17 per common share, for the first six months of 1994.


Segment Results

    Basic Steel Operations.  The Basic Steel Operations segment had income
from operations of $98 million in the second quarter of 1995, doubling the $49
million for the second quarter of 1994.  Operating income per ton increased
from $21 per ton in the second quarter of 1994 to $43 per ton in the second
quarter of 1995.  This segment realized higher steel prices for its
flat-rolled products in the second quarter of 1995 and an improved product
mix, shipping a greater percentage of higher value coated products.  The
segment's operating results improved despite lower shipments (primarily of
cold-rolled and hot-rolled products), increased employment costs (mostly for
future profit sharing payments) and higher depreciation expense.

    Income from operations for the first six months of 1995 was $177 million,
more than double the $85 million for the same period in 1994.  This increase
reflects improved prices for flat-rolled products and an improved product mix,
primarily a higher percentage of coated product shipments.  Operating costs
per ton were higher as a result of higher purchased slab and alloy costs,
higher employment costs (principally profit sharing), and depreciation.

    Income from operations for the second quarter improved about $19 million
from the first quarter of 1995, reflecting lower purchased steel costs,
continued improvement in costs at Sparrows Point and lower costs at
Pennsylvania Steel Technologies ("PST") as its newly modernized facilities
continue to move up the start-up curve to higher levels of utilization and
productivity.  These improvements were partially offset by higher operating
costs at Bethlehem's Eagle Nest coal producing facility.  Net sales per ton of

                                - 6 -
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 8

shipment benefitted principally from higher sales of large diameter pipe and
iron ore while prices for steel mill products increased slightly.

    Bethlehem Structural Products Corporation ("BSPC"), which has been
unprofitable, is implementing previously announced plans to discontinue
steelmaking later this year.  All of its production of light to medium wide
flange beams, sheet piling and special sections will be consolidated on its
44- inch mill, which is being modernized.  BSPC will then be supplied with
continuously cast steel produced primarily at PST.  This will help decrease
costs at both of these Divisions and improve the efficiency and the use of
their assets.

    Steel Related Operations.  The Steel Related Operations segment (BethShip,
BethForge, and CENTEC) had losses from operations of $10 million and $15
million for the second quarter and first six months of 1995, compared to
losses from operations of $8 million and $17 million for the second quarter
and first six months of 1994.  The domestic ship repair market continued to be
very competitive during the second quarter primarily because the U.S. Navy
has reduced its fleet significantly in recent years and a number of private
ship owners have been deferring repair work in response to relatively lower
freight rates.  Market conditions are expected to improve later this year.

    As part of its modernization program to improve costs, BethForge began
receiving ingots from PST in the second quarter of 1995 and will continue to
increase its receipt of PST ingots in the second half of 1995.  Later this
year, BethForge will discontinue operating its electric furnace steelmaking
and ingot production facilities in Bethlehem.


Liquidity

    Cash and cash equivalents totaled $129 million at June 30, 1995, compared
to $160 million at December 31, 1994, and $145 million at June 30, 1994.  Cash
provided from operating activities was $197 million for the first six months
of 1995, compared to $151 million for the first six months of 1994.  Principal
uses of cash during the first six months of 1995 included capital expenditures
and pension funding.  At June 30, 1995, available borrowings under Bethlehem's
1992 revolving credit agreement totaled $426 million.  Bethlehem's accounts
receivable and inventories are pledged as collateral under this agreement.

    Capital expenditures were $120 million for the first six months of 1995
compared to $223 million during the year-earlier period.  Capital expenditures
are currently expected to be about $350 million in 1995, compared to $445
million in 1994.

                                - 7 -

<PAGE>
<PAGE> 9

    Bethlehem contributed $84 million to its pension fund during the second
quarter of 1995, for a total of $155 million so far this year.  Bethlehem
repaid $49 million of debt and capital lease obligations during the first six
months of 1995 and expects to repay an additional $41 million of such
obligations during the remainder of the year.  Principal uses of cash during
the remainder of 1995 include additional pension funding, capital
expenditures, and the repayment of debt and capital lease obligations.
Bethlehem expects to maintain an adequate level of liquidity from cash flow
from operations, reductions in working capital and available borrowings under
its 1992 revolving credit agreement.


Dividends

    On July 26, 1995, the Board of Directors declared dividends of $1.25 per
share on Bethlehem's $5.00 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.625 per
share on Bethlehem's $2.50 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, and $0.875
per share on Bethlehem's $3.50 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, each
payable September 10, 1995, to holders of record on August 10, 1995.  No
dividend was declared on Bethlehem's Common Stock.


Outlook

    Bethlehem's customers continue to reduce their inventory levels.  This,
along with relatively high import levels, which are now declining, new
capacity additions entering the marketplace, and automotive model year
changeovers and vacation shut-downs, have resulted in some moderation in new
orders.  Some softening has occurred in the automotive market as its outlook
for the year has declined, while demand from the non-residential construction
and machinery industries continues to be relatively strong.

    Bethlehem expects that its customers will complete their inventory
reductions by the end of the third quarter and that domestic orders should
then start improving.  Anticipated import reductions and increased exports are
expected to contribute to the maintenance of high levels of industry shipments
for 1995.

                        PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

    Bethlehem, in the ordinary course of its business, is the subject of
various pending or threatened legal actions involving governmental agencies
or private interests.  Bethlehem believes that any ultimate liability
arising from these actions should not have a material adverse effect on
its consolidated financial position at June 30, 1995.

    The following previously reported proceedings had developments
during the second quarter of 1995:

    On October 16, 1990, the Justice Department on behalf of the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") filed a civil action against
Bethlehem in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Indiana seeking injunctive relief and civil penalties for alleged violations
of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended ("RCRA") and the
Safe Drinking Water Act with respect to the Burns Harbor Division, including
failure to manage certain of the operation's sludges as hazardous wastes, and
failure to begin a corrective action program pursuant to the terms of a
previously issued underground injection permit.  On March 19, 1993, the Court
issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order granting Partial Summary Judgment for
the government concerning the liability issues in the case and ordering
Bethlehem to comply with interim status requirements of RCRA for its terminal
polishing lagoons and landfill and to comply with the corrective action
requirements of Bethlehem's underground injection well permits.  A hearing on
the civil penalty issue was concluded on July 21, 1993, and on August 31,
1993, the Court entered a judgment against Bethlehem for $6 million.  This sum
consisted of $4.2 million for alleged permit violations and $1.8 million for
the alleged landfill violations.  Bethlehem filed separate Notices of Appeal
with the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit appealing the
trial court's grant of summary judgment and its penalty determination.  On
September 26, 1994, the Seventh Circuit issued a decision reversing the trial
court's summary judgment with respect to the alleged violations concerning the
terminal polishing lagoons and landfill, holding that the sludges are not
subject to regulation as hazardous waste under RCRA.  The decision affirmed
the summary judgment with respect to the alleged permit violations.
Bethlehem's appeal of the $4.2 million civil penalty amount for the alleged
permit violations was dismissed by the Seventh Circuit on May 24, 1995,
pursuant to a stipulation of settlement requiring Bethlehem to pay $3.375
million in full settlement of its liability for a civil penalty, and the
matter was closed by Bethlehem's payment of that amount on June 7, 1995.

    The Justice Department, the EPA and the Texas Natural Resource
Conservation Commission (formerly Texas Water Commission) had instituted a
criminal investigation into certain environmental practices involving the
operations of the BethShip Sabine Yard in Port Arthur, Texas.  The basic
operations of the Yard comprise the drydocking of marine vessels to clean and
paint exterior surfaces and internal tanks, as well as performing steel hull
plate repairs and other general repairs.  These operations use blasting grit,
paint thinner and other materials.  The investigation included the above

                                 - 9 -

<PAGE> 11

operations and the usage, treatment, storage and disposal of those materials.
Bethlehem cooperated with the authorities as to the conduct of the
investigation.  On May 31, 1995, pursuant to an agreement between
BethShip-Sabine Yard and the Office of the U.S.  Attorney, Eastern District of
Texas, the Yard entered a plea of guilty to a single charge of violation of
the Federal Clean Water Act by failing to obtain a permit for the discharge in
1991 of abrasive blasting grit into the Sabine Neches Canal at the Yard's
facility in Port Arthur during the operation of the dry dock.  The U.S.
District Court for the Eastern District of Texas imposed a sentence of a
$500,000 fine, which has been paid.  In addition, the Yard has made a
$1,000,000 contribution to the SouthEast Texas Coastal Trust Fund.

    BethEnergy Mines Inc.  (formerly Bethlehem Minerals Company), a subsidiary
of Bethlehem, was a party to an action entitled Church and Mullins, et al v.
Bethlehem Minerals Company, et al.  The case involved a dispute concerning
title to coal mined by Bethlehem under a parcel of land in eastern Kentucky.
The trial court opinion, delivered February 25, 1987, held that the coal in
question was owned by the Church and Mullins interests and awarded damages in
the amount of $16.9 million.  On appeal, on January 12, 1990, the Kentucky
Court of Appeals reversed the trial court judgment in part and affirmed it in
part, essentially upholding the trial court's finding on the issue of title
but limiting the award of damages.  The Court of Appeals decision was further
appealed to the Supreme Court of Kentucky, and on June 4, 1992, the Supreme
Court of Kentucky, by a vote of four to three, reinstated the decision of the
trial court.  On June 24, 1992, Bethlehem petitioned the Kentucky Supreme
Court to reconsider its ruling.  On December 23, 1994, the Court denied the
motion, upholding the original verdict, plus interest.  On May 15, 1995, the
U.S.  Supreme Court denied Bethlehem's petition for a writ of certiorari.
Bethlehem has paid $37.6 million, representing the full amount of the
judgment, including interest.  This result will not have any other effect on
Bethlehem's results of operations because Bethlehem sold its Kentucky coal
operations in 1988.


Item 2.  Changes in Securities.

    On April 25, 1995, Bethlehem's stockholders approved an amendment to
Article Fourth of Bethlehem's Second Restated Certificate of Incorporation to
increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock ("Common Stock") from
150,000,000 to 250,000,000 shares.  This amendment was filed with the Office
of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on July 20, 1995.

    The authorization of additional shares of Common Stock has no effect on
the rights of existing security holders.  However, issuance of additional
shares of Common Stock would dilute the voting rights of present holders of
Common Stock.  In addition, depending upon the consideration received for the
issuance of any additional shares of Common Stock and other relevant facts and
circumstances, it is possible that issuance of such Common Stock could have a
dilutive effect on the stockholder's equity and earnings per share
attributable to such present holders.
