(1) In the opinion of management and subject to year-end audit, the 
accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments 
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly 
the financial position of the Company as of October 1, 1995 and September 
25, 1994, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended.

The nine months ended October 1, 1995 consisted of 40 weeks while the nine 
months ended September 25, 1994 consisted of 39 weeks.

The results of operations for the nine months ended October 1, 1995, are
not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.


 (2) Earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of 
shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding 
during each period. Common stock equivalents include stock options and 
warrants for the period prior to their exercise. Under the treasury stock 
method, the unexercised options and warrants were assumed to be exercised 
at the beginning of the period or at issuance, if later. The assumed 
proceeds were then used to purchase common stock at the average market 
price during the period.

For each of the reported periods except the quarter ended September 25,
1994, the difference between primary and fully diluted earnings per share
was not significant. For the quarter ended September 25, 1994, the primary
and fully diluted earnings per share were $.85 and $.82, respectively

NET REVENUES
- - ------------
Net revenues for the third quarter and nine months of 1995 were $826,165 and 
$1,834,522, respectively, up from the $796,222 and $1,729,679 reported for 
the same periods of 1994. During the quarter, international revenues 
increased by approximately 12% from those of a year ago, while domestically, 
they marginally declined. Included in both the international and domestic 
1995 revenues was the positive impact of the Company's recent acquisitions. 
Additionally, international revenues benefited by approximately $11,000 from 
changed foreign currency translation rates during the quarter, net of the 
approximate $5,000 negative impact from the weakened Mexican peso. Within 
both geographic areas, the Company's revenues from its games and boys' toys 
were greater than those of the comparable period of 1994, while revenues 
from its girls' toys were less. Revenues from the Company's preschool and 
activity items approximated those of a year ago. The growth pattern for the 
nine months was similar to that of the quarter.

COST OF SALES
- - -------------
The gross profit margin, expressed as a percentage of net revenues, for the 
quarter increased to 56.3% from the 1994 level of 55.8%, and the nine months 
to 56.0% from 55.9% a year ago. The improvement in both periods reflects the 
more favorable mix of products sold, the efficiencies from recent plant 
consolidations, the effect of GATT, all partially offset by the impact of 
increased material costs, specifically paper board and plastic resin. 

EXPENSES
- - --------
Royalties, research and development expenses for the quarter increased from 
prior year's amount but remained constant as a percentage of net revenues. 
The royalty component increased both in amount and when expressed as a 
percentage of net revenues. In addition to reflecting the growth in volume 
during the quarter, the increases can also be attributed to the mix of 
products sold with more revenue being derived from items carrying higher 
royalty rates. Research and development was $34,576 and $102,004 for the 
quarter and nine months of 1995 while $35,193 and $96,655 for the same 
periods of 1994.

Earlier this year, the Company discontinued its efforts, begun in 1992, 
related to the development of a mass-market virtual reality game system. 
These efforts produced such a game system, but at a price judged to be too 
expensive for the mass-market. The impact of this decision was a second 
quarter charge of $31,100, the estimated costs associated with such action. 
Approximately half of the charge resulted from the expensing of software 
development costs, previously capitalized under the provisions of Statement 
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, related to both the operating 
system and games for the system. The remaining amount represented provisions 
for costs associated with discontinuance of this project, including the 
termination of contractual agreements relating to the development of the 
system and games, the write-off of certain fixed assets and various other 
cancellation/termination costs.

Advertising expense in the current quarter increased both in amount and as a 
percentage of net revenues. For the third quarter and nine months of 1995, 
the amounts were $123,537 and $261,934, respectively, compared with $116,307 
and $241,294 in the same periods of 1994. Expressed as a percentage of net 
revenues, the third quarter and nine months of 1995 was 15.0% and 14.3%, 
respectively, while 1994 was 14.6% and 14.0%. The increases during the 
current year reflect the higher proportion of the Company's revenues coming 
from the international marketing units which generally have higher 
advertising to sales ratios than do the domestic groups. Also contributing 
to the increase is the impact of expanded efforts to support products in 
certain of the Company's domestic operations.

For the quarter, selling distribution and administration expense increased 
from the level of the comparable period of 1994. As in the prior quarter, 
this increase was the result of a combination of factors including the 
impact of the weakened U.S. dollar, new organizations, principally Larami, 
Waddington Games, Scandinavia and the K'NEX joint venture, higher 
distribution costs, a higher bad debt charge and a general increase in 
expense levels. The nine month increase is primarily attributable to the 
same factors.

During the third quarter of 1994, the Company restructured its Domestic Toy 
Group, merging the five units into one organization, the Hasbro Toy Group, 
and also announced the consolidation of certain of its domestic 
manufacturing facilities. To provide for these and other immaterial 
restructuring costs, the Company recorded a $12,500 pretax charge during 
that quarter. In excess of 90% of this charge was related to severance and 
other costs associated with terminated employees.   

NONOPERATING (INCOME) EXPENSE
- - -----------------------------
Interest expense for the third quarter increased approximately $2,100 from 
that of the same period of 1994, reflecting the use of funds to finance the 
Company's recent acquisitions and geographic expansion. The nine month 
increase can also be attributed to the same factors.

Other income, net, decreased significantly for the quarter. During the third 
quarter of 1994, the Company disposed of certain investments, as described 
in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
of Operations in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 
December 25, 1994, realizing an aggregate pretax gain of approximately 
$23,000. Absent the impact of this gain, other income in the third quarter 
of 1995 increased approximately $2,800 reflecting both the impact of foreign 
currency transaction gains and increased earnings from available funds. 
These funds, principally in the international units, are invested on a 
short-term basis locally. (See Liquidity and Capital Resources later in this 
document for further discussion related to short-term investments.)

OTHER INFORMATION
- - -----------------
The business of the Company is characterized by customer order patterns 
which vary from year to year largely because of differences in the degree of 
consumer acceptance of a product line, product availability, marketing 
strategies and inventory levels of retailers and differences in overall 
economic conditions. Also, quick response inventory management practices now 
being used results in fewer orders being placed in advance of shipment and 
more orders, when placed, for immediate delivery. As a result, comparisons 
of unshipped orders on any date in a given year with those at the same date 
in a prior year are not necessarily indicative of sales for the entire year. 
In addition, it is a general industry practice that orders are subject to 
amendment or cancellation by customers prior to shipment. At the end of its 
fiscal October (October 29, 1995 and October 23, 1994), the Company's 
unshipped orders were approximately $550,000 and $490,000, respectively. The 
revenue pattern of the Company continues to shift with the second half of 
the year growing in significance to its overall business and, within that 
half, the fourth quarter becoming much more prominent. The Company expects 
that this trend will continue.

During the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company recorded a restructuring 
charge of $15,500, primarily relating to the planned closure of the 
Company's manufacturing facility in The Netherlands. The Company had 
initially planned to cease production at this facility during the second 
quarter of 1994 but was unable to do so. The actions necessary to comply 
with local regulations relating to such a closure took longer than 
anticipated and the Company did not cease production at this facility until 
the first quarter of 1995. A majority of the liability established for this 
closure has now been satisfied and the Company has begun to experience the 
positive results from this action including both the elimination of costs 
associated with the previously existing excess production capacity and the 
transfer of production to a lower-cost manufacturing facility. The remaining 
amount provided in 1993 related to several items, none of which were 
significant, either in cost or anticipated benefits. All of the liabilities 
established for such items have been satisfied and the expected benefits are 
being obtained.

As discussed above, during the third quarter of 1994 the Company recorded a 
restructuring charge of $12,500, primarily to cover costs associated with 
the restructuring of certain of its domestic operations. Included in such 
amount was a provision of approximately $4,400 for the costs associated with 
the termination of approximately 100 management employees. Substantially all 
of these employees have been terminated and a majority of the liability has 
been satisfied. Also part of this charge was a provision of approximately 
$3,400 for costs associated with the termination of approximately 485 
domestic manufacturing employees. Substantially all of these employees have 
also been terminated and a majority of the liability has been satisfied. The 
Company believes that the reorganized units are operating more efficiently 
and thus the anticipated savings, although impractical to quantify, are 
being experienced.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- - -------------------------------
Because of the seasonality of the Company's business coupled with certain 
customer incentives, mainly in the form of extended payment terms, the 
interim cash flow statements are not representative of that which may be 
expected for the full year. As a result of these extended payment terms, the 
majority of the Company's cash collections occur late in the fourth quarter 
and early in the first quarter of the subsequent year. While a large portion 
of these receivables are of a quality which would allow their sale, 
alleviating the need for much of its interim financing, the Company believes 
it to be more cost effective to use its available funds and short-term 
borrowings to finance them. Late in its fourth quarter and through the first 
quarter of the subsequent year, as receivables are collected, cash flow from 
operations becomes positive and is used to repay a significant portion of 
the short-term borrowings.

As a result, management believes that on an interim basis, rather than 
discussing its cash flows, a better understanding of its liquidity and 
capital resources can be obtained through a discussion of the various 
balance sheet categories. Also, as several of the major categories, 
including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories and 
short-term borrowings, fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, 
again due to the seasonality of its business and the extended payment terms 
offered, management believes that a comparison to the comparable period in 
the prior year is generally more meaningful than a comparison to the prior 
year-end.

Cash and cash equivalents at October 1, 1995, were approximately 10% less 
than their 1994 level. The Company attempts to keep its cash and cash 
equivalents at the lowest level possible whenever it has short-term 
borrowings, although at times the cash available and the borrowing 
requirement may be in different countries and currencies which may make it 
impractical to substitute one for the other. Receivables were approximately 
$10,000 greater than at the same time in 1994, although they would have been 
approximately $30,000 lower than those of a year ago if the impact of new 
operations and changed foreign currency translation rates were excluded. 
Inventories were approximately $57,000 higher than those of September 1994, 
reflecting the impact of new operations and changed foreign currency 
translation rates as well as the need to have product available for an 
anticipated increased fourth quarter demand. Other assets, as a group, 
increased by approximately $120,000 from their level a year ago. This 
increase results from the Company's investments and acquisitions during the 
most recent twelve months, partially offset by twelve additional months of 
amortization expense.

(Thousands of dollars)


Short-term borrowings at $566,820 were approximately $80,000 greater than 
last year. This increase is the net effect of the cash required for the 
Company's recent acquisitions, expanded business operations and the 
repurchase of shares of the Company's common stock, all partially offset by 
funds generated from operations within the most recent twelve months. In the 
aggregate, trade payables, accrued liabilities and accrued income taxes 
increased marginally, reflecting both the Company's increased activities and 
the impact of changed foreign currency translation rates.  

At October 1, 1995, the Company had committed unsecured lines of credit 
totaling approximately $590,000 available to it. It also had available 
uncommitted lines approximating $990,000. The Company believes that these 
amounts are adequate for its needs. Of these available lines, approximately 
$590,000 was in use at October 1, 1995.

RECENT DEVELOPMENT
- - ------------------
On October 25, 1995, the Company announced the formation of Hasbro 
Interactive Worldwide. This new unit will be an all-family classic game and 
edutainment software company with a presence in viable hardware platforms in 
the major worldwide markets. It plans to publish edutainment software in 
North America, Europe and throughout Asia under the Playskool(R) Software 
brand and all CD-ROM and on-line games under the Hasbro Interactive(TM) 
brand name. Two of its products, CD-ROM versions of Monopoly(R) and Trivial 
Pursuit(R) are currently on the market and it will incorporate additional 
Company brands and characters, along with original and licensed properties, 
in future products.
