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

The Company's principal business is the operation of a chain of super drug
stores under the name "Fay's Drugs." As of April 29, 1995, the Company was
operating 214 Fay's Drug stores, 62 traditional drug stores, 74 discount auto
supply stores under the name "Wheels Discount Auto Supply," and 31 discount
office supply, party supply, book and greeting card stores under the name "The
Paper Cutter."

The total number of stores being operated has increased from 325 at the end of
the first quarter of fiscal 1995 to 381. This increase includes the acquisition
of 30 National Auto Supply stores in June 1994, the acquisition of the 12 store
Peterson Drug chain in July 1994, and the opening of 4 new super drug stores and
11 Wheels Discount Auto Supply stores.

Net earnings for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were $772,000 compared to
$1,973,000 in the first quarter of the previous year. Earnings were impacted by
lower than anticipated sales in all three of the Company's retail divisions and
lower pharmacy gross margins.

Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were $266.4 million representing an
increase of 11.4% over the first quarter of last year. Sales increases reflected
growth in the number of stores from last year as well as a 17% increase in
pharmacy sales. Sales from comparable stores (those open one year or more as of
April 29, 1995) increased 1.8% including an 8.6% increase in pharmacy sales.

The gross profit rate on sales was 28.67% compared to 28.83% for the same period
last year. The decline in gross profit is largely attributable to continued
pressures on third party pharmacy margins, combined with the trend of third
party prescription sales accounting for a greater portion of total pharmacy
revenues. Third party pharmacy sales were over 78% of total pharmacy sales in
the first quarter compared to 71% in the previous year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were 25.7% of sales and increased
from 24.8% last year largely due to the lower than anticipated sales volume.
Interest costs were higher than last year due to increases in debt required to
finance acquisitions made during fiscal 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At April 29, 1995, the Company had cash of $1.3 million and total working
capital of $98.5 million. Cash flow from operations totaled $6.7 million and was
used primarily for expenditures on property and equipment, the payment of cash
dividends, and reductions in long-term obligations. On May 12, 1995, the Company
announced that it had begun exploring the possible divestiture of some or all
of its interests in its two non-drugstore retail businesses, Wheels Discount
Auto Supply and The Paper Cutter. The proceeds from such transactions, if they
were to occur, would be used to reduce outstanding debt obligations and for
other general corporate purposes.

The Company continues to maintain a sound financial position and believes that
its operations and capital resources will provide sufficient cash availability
to meet its liquidity needs and to finance planned growth.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
          -----------------

          On May 29, 1995, the Company was served with a summons and
          complaint in an action filed in U.S. District Court for the
          Northern District of New York entitled David Rowitt vs. Fay's
                                                 ----------------------
          Incorporated, Henry A. Panasci, Jr. and David H. Panasci. The
          ---------------------------------------------------------
          complaint alleges violations by the Company of Section 10(b) of the
          Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5. The suit is brought as
          a class action pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 23(a) and
          23(b)(3) on behalf of certain persons who purchased the Company's
          common stock from January 30, 1995 through May 12, 1995. Henry A.
          Panasci, Jr. and David H. Panasci are alleged to be "controlling
          persons" within the meaning of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act with
          the power and influence to cause the Company to engage in the conduct
          complained of.

          The factual basis alleged to underlie the proceedings involves certain
          public disclosures made by the Company between May 1994 and April 29,
          1995 that the plaintiff alleges were materially false and misleading.
          The plaintiff further alleges that the Company failed to disclose
          material adverse facts about the Company's business operations and
          presented an unduly optimistic presentation of the Company's current
          operating condition and future business prospects.

          The Company plans to interpose an answer denying all of plaintiffs
          allegations of violations of law. The Company believes the lawsuit to
          be wholly without merit, and the Company plans to vigorously defend
          same.
