                   THE HARVEY GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                (UNAUDITED)

     1.  Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial
     statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions
     to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and
     footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial
     position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with
     generally accepted accounting principles.  In the opinion of
     management, adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
     considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included
     (except adjustments that may result from the possible inability
     of the Company to continue as a going concern - see below).  The
     results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative
     of results to be expected for the year, due to seasonal aspects
     of operations of the Company.

     In addition, the accompanying consolidated financial statements
     have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a
     going concern.  The Company has incurred recurring losses and
     negative cash flows from operations for each of the three fiscal
     years ending January 28, 1995, as well as the thirteen weeks
     ended April 29, 1995, and anticipates that negative cash flows
     from operations will continue.  These conditions raise
     substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
     going concern.  On June 16, 1995, the Company's shares of common
     stock ceased trading on the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") as
     the Company did not meet AMEX's listing criteria.  Management's
     plans in regard to these matters principally include seeking to
     raise additional equity through a private placement, which will
     require converting or extending the maturity of certain
     Debentures.  Additionally, the Company will look to increase its
     sales through merchandising and marketing changes and further
     reduce expenses and lower inventory levels.  If the Company is
     unable to accomplish these objectives or otherwise generate
     sufficient levels of cash flows from operations and/or
     alternative financing sources, as necessary, the Company may not
     be able to continue as a going concern and may be forced to
     informally restructure its obligations with its creditors or
     formally reorganize or liquidate under the United States
     Bankruptcy Code.  The financial statements do not include any
     adjustments that may result from the possible inability of the
     Company to continue as a going concern.

     For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
     statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report
     on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 1995 and
     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
     Results of Operations in Item 2 below.

     2.  Inventories

     Inventories have been valued based upon actual gross profit
     percentages applied to sales.


     ITEM 2--MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
     CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Results of Operations

     The Company reported a consolidated net loss for the thirteen
     weeks ended April 29, 1995 of $475,000 ($.15 per share) as
     compared to a consolidated net loss of $317,000 ($.10 per share)
     for the same period last year.

     Total store sales for the thirteen weeks ended April 29, 1995,
     inclusive of sales from the Company's new retail store which was
     opened in November 1994, increased 1.0% from the same period last
     year.  Comparable store sales for the quarter ended April 29,
     1995 decreased 9.5% from the same period last year.  The decrease
     in comparable store sales is due from reduced lower margin
     corporate sales coupled with soft market conditions experienced
     throughout the industry.  Additionally, sales have been negatively 
     impacted as the Company has experienced difficulty in stocking 
     certain inventory at desired levels.

     Cost of sales remained consistent despite increased sales from
     the Company's new retail store.  Gross margins as a percentage of
     sales increased to 32.9% for the first quarter ended April 29,
     1995 as compared to 32.6% for the same quarter last year.  The
     gross profit margins increased as a result of reduced lower
     margin corporate sales and increased sales from warranty
     contracts which generate higher margins.  Higher store margins
     were offset by a reduction of purchase discounts received from
     the Company's vendors, as a result of cash shortages.

     Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses ("S,G&A
     expenses") for the thirteen weeks ended April 29, 1995 increased
     8.2% from the same period last year, primarily from expenses
     relating to the Company's new retail store.  Comparable S,G&A
     expenses decreased 2.1% as a result of the Company's ongoing and
     effective expense reduction program implemented in fiscal 1994.

     Consolidated interest expense increased 24.8% for the first
     quarter ended April 29, 1995 as compared to the same period last
     year.  This increase is the result of a new term loan relating to
     the opening of the retail store in November 1994, increased
     interest rates and additional borrowings from the Company's
     revolving line of credit facility.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was
     1.02 at April 29, 1995 as compared to 1.14 at January 28, 1995. 
     The decrease in the current ratio is primarily due to the use of
     cash to fund the Company's first quarter net loss.

     The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows
     from operations for each of the three fiscal years in the period
     ending January 28, 1995, as well as the thirteen weeks ended
     April 29, 1995, and anticipates that negative cash flows from
     operations will continue.  The loss of liquidity has caused the
     Company to delay most of its payments to its suppliers of
     inventory and other creditors.  As a result, the Company is 
     experiencing difficulty in stocking inventory at desired levels, 
     resulting in an adverse effect on current sales.

     These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's
     ability to continue as a going concern.  On June 16, 1995, the
     Company's shares of common stock ceased trading on the American
     Stock Exchange ("AMEX") as the Company did not meet AMEX's
     listing criteria.  Management's plans in regard to these matters
     principally include seeking to raise additional equity through a
     private placement, which will require converting or extending the
     maturity of certain Debentures.  Although the Company previously
     announced that it had entered into agreements relating to a
     private placement seeking to raise up to $4,200,000 of new equity
     for the Company, in view of the Company's current financial
     condition, the Company does not believe that such transaction can
     be consummated as presently structured.  However, the Company is
     continuing its efforts to raise equity from the parties to such
     previously announced transaction as well as from alternative
     financing sources.  Additionally, the Company will look to
     increase its sales through merchandising and marketing changes
     and further reduce expenses and lower inventory levels.  If the
     Company is unable to accomplish these objectives or otherwise
     generate sufficient levels of cash flows from operations and/or
     alternative financing sources, as necessary, the Company may not
     be able to continue as a going concern and may be forced to
     informally restructure its obligations with its creditors or
     formally reorganize or liquidate under the United States
     Bankruptcy Code.  The financial statements do not include any
     adjustments that may result from the possible inability of the
     Company to continue as a going concern.

     For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
     statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report
     on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 1995.

     During the period, the Company was not significantly impacted by
     the effects of inflation.

     29, 1995.

              shares of common stock.  See Management's Discussion and
              Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
              Operations for further details.
