GENOVESE DRUG STORES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The condensed balance sheet as of November 7, 1997, the condensed
statements of income for the twelve and forty week periods ended
November 7, 1997 and November 8, 1996 and the condensed statements of
cash flows for the forty week periods ended November 7, 1997 and
November 8, 1996 have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulations S-X
by the Company, without audit. The balance sheet as of January 31, 1997
was derived from the audited balance sheet included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary
to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows at November 7, 1997 and for the periods presented have been
made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 1997.
2. The results of operations for the twelve and forty weeks ended November
7, 1997 and November 8, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
3. Merchandise inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market, cost
being determined by the last in first out (LIFO) method. LIFO inventory
costs are determined at the end of each fiscal year when inflation
rates are finalized. Therefore, LIFO inventory costs and cost of
merchandise sold for interim periods are estimated and adjusted based
on periodic physical inventories. At November 7, 1997 and January 31,
1997, inventories would have been greater by $20,300,000 and
$18,700,000, respectively, if they had been valued at replacement
costs.
4. During the forty weeks ended November 7, 1997, the Company sold the
assets of its Living Color photo processing plant. Simultaneously with
the sale of the processing plant, the Company entered into an agreement
whereby the Company will outsource all of its out of store
photofinishing.
5. On December 9, 1997 the Company's Board of Directors declared a 10
percent stock dividend payable on January 14, 1998 to holders of record
as of December 26, 1997.
The Board of Directors also declared a cash dividend of $.07 per common
share payable on January 14, 1998 to holders of record as of December
26, 1997. The cash dividend will be payable on the shares represented
by the stock dividend.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE TWELVE AND FORTY WEEKS ENDED NOVEMBER 7, 1997
Sales increased by 10.1% for the third quarter and 11.5% for the year to
date. On a comparable store basis (stores which were open during all of
fiscal 1997 and 1998 to date), sales increased by 5.6% for the quarter and
7.1% for the year to date. The sales contribution of the 23 stores opened
during fiscal 1996, 1997 and 1998 to date in addition to the maturation of
existing stores were the primary components of the sales increases. Sales
have also been effected by an undetermined amount of inflationary price
increases which have been passed onto customers.
Cost of merchandise sold, expressed as a percentage of sales, increased to
72.0% for the third quarter versus 70.0% last year. The results for the
first half followed the same trend with the cost of merchandise sold at
72.2% this year versus 70.8% last year. The primary factors resulting in
the decrease in gross profit margins are the continued reduction of
reimbursement rates from third party prescription plans, the increase in
pharmacy sales as a percentage of total sales and the increase in third
party plan sales as a percentage of pharmacy sales. For the year to date,
prescription sales represented 41.0% of total sales versus 38.8% in fiscal
1997. Pharmacy sales to individuals covered by third party prescription
plans increased to 79.6% this year from 75.2% in the same period last year.
Management anticipates that pharmacy margins will continue to decline
throughout fiscal 1998 and during fiscal 1999 due to continued pressure on
third party reimbursement rates and the increasing percentage of customers
covered by third party prescription plans.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 26.9% of sales
from 26.7% for the third quarter, and decreased to 26.2% from 26.7% for the
year to date. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses
during the quarter ended November 7, 1997 reversed the trend of decreasing
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
activities during the previous four quarters. This increase was primarily
the result of costs associated with the implementation of a new pharmacy
computer system combined with lower than expected sales growth partially
due to the loss of sales from a major third party prescription plan, which
the Company terminated due to low reimbursement rates.
Interest expense was $952,000 for the third quarter versus $918,000 for the
same period last year and $2,761,000 versus $3,131,000 for the year to
date. The increase in interest expense during the third quarter was a
result of higher borrowing levels outstanding during the quarter.
Net income for the third quarter decreased to $517,000, or $.04 per share,
from $2,351,000, or $.19 per share, last year. Net income for the year to
date was $3,629,000, or $.29 per share, versus $5,452,000, or $.45 per
share, last year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's operating, investing and financing activities for the forty weeks
ended November 7, 1997 used net cash of $240,000 as follows:
- - Operating activities used $2,481,000 primarily due to increases in
merchandise inventory and other assets and a decrease in accounts payable,
accrued expenses and other, which were partially offset by decreases in
receivables, prepaid expenses and the receipt of supplier advances.
- - Investing activities used $12,789,000 due to the purchase of property and
equipment of $16,741,000, which was partially offset by proceeds from the
sale of the Living Color photo processing plant.
- - Financing activities provided $15,030,000 primarily from additional bank
borrowing partially offset by the repayment of long-term debt and the
payment of cash dividends.
Working capital at November 7, 1997 was $66.1 million. The working capital ratio
was 1.8 to 1.0 at November 7, 1997 versus 1.6 to 1.0 at January 31, 1997.
The Company maintains a revolving credit facility with three banks under which
the banks are committed to lend up to $90 million to the Company. As of November
7, 1997, the Company had borrowings of $62 million under this agreement. As of
November 7, 1997, the Company was in compliance with all loan covenants. Because
the payment of the recently declared cash dividend on January 14, 1998 could
have caused the Company, based on its projected results for the fourth quarter
of fiscal 1998, to be in default of its loan covenant with respect to payment of
dividends, the Company requested and received a waiver of this covenant for the
fiscal year ending January 30, 1998.
The Company anticipates that its working capital needs for the remainder of
fiscal 1998 will be satisfied through operating results and, as necessary,
through borrowing under facilities available to the Company.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"). SFAS
128 establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share
("EPS"). SFAS 128 replaces the presentation of primary EPS with the presentation
of basic EPS and requires the presentation of basic EPS and diluted EPS on the
face of the income statement.
This statement will be effective for the Company's fiscal year ending January
30, 1998. Early application for the quarter ended November 7, 1997 is not
permitted.
If SFAS 128 had been adopted for the twelve and forty weeks ended November 7,
1997 and November 8, 1996, there would have been no difference in the reported
earnings per share.

This 10-Q contains "forward looking statements" based on the Company's current
plans and expectations, which involve risk and uncertainties. Actual results or
achievements may be materially different. The Company's plans and expectations
are based on assumptions involving judgements with respect to future economic,
competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which
are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond
the control of the Company. The Company's experience under third party
prescription reimbursement plans will be subject to industry trends in managed
care, and the nature, timing and frequency of amendments, modifications, or
expirations of such agreements. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the
forward looking statements will prove to be accurate. The Company undertakes no
obligation to revise its forward looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date hereof.
