         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
         ----------------------------------------------------
                             (Unaudited)


1.     In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying
       consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
       (which comprise only normal and recurring accruals) necessary to
       present fairly the financial position as of July 31, 1994 and October
       31, 1993, the results of operations for the three months and nine
       months ended July 31, 1994 and 1993, and the cash flows for the nine
       months ended July 31, 1994 and 1993.

       The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods
       ended July 31, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
       be expected for the full year.

2.     In fiscal 1994, net earnings per share are computed based on a method
       which approximates the use of a weighted-average number of common
       shares and common share equivalents outstanding during each period. 
       Common share equivalents represent the dilutive effect of outstanding
       stock options.  In previous periods, common share equivalents were not
       included as their effect was considered immaterial.

3.     Income tax provisions for interim periods are based on estimated
       effective annual income tax rates.  The effective income tax rate
       varies from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily
       because of tax credits and variations in the tax rates on foreign
       income.

4.     The Company paid interest of $97 million and $92 million for the nine
       months  ended July 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.  For the same
       periods, the Company paid income taxes of $495 million and $217
       million, respectively.  The effect of foreign currency exchange rate
       fluctuations on cash balances held in foreign currencies was not
       material.

         and Financial Condition (Unaudited).

              HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- - ---------------------

Net Revenue - Net revenue for the third quarter ended July 31, 1994 was $6.1
billion, an increase of 22 percent from the same period of fiscal 1993. 
Equipment sales increased 24 percent and service revenue grew 17 percent over
the corresponding period of fiscal 1993.  International net revenue grew 24
percent to $3.3 billion, while U.S. net revenue increased by 20 percent to
$2.8 billion.

The third quarter growth in net revenue was principally due to strong demand
for the Company's personal computer and PC networking products, printer
products and related supplies, scanners and wide format printers, UNIX
servers and the related solutions integration consulting and professional
services business, electronic components products and test and measurement
products.

Net revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 1994 was $18.0 billion, an
increase of 23 percent from the same period of fiscal 1993.  Equipment sales
increased 25 percent and service revenue grew 16 percent over the
corresponding period of fiscal 1993.  International net revenue grew 22
percent to $9.8 billion, while U.S. net revenue grew 24 percent to $8.2
billion.

Costs and Expenses - Cost of equipment sold and services as a percentage of
net revenue was 62.3 percent for the third quarter and 61.9 percent for the
first nine months of fiscal 1994, compared to 59.8 percent for the third
quarter and 59.0 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 1993.   These
increases over fiscal 1993 were the result of continued competitive pricing
pressures and an ongoing shift in revenue mix to products with higher cost
of sales as a percentage of revenue.  The Company believes that competitive
pricing pressures and the shift in revenue mix are likely to continue to put
upward pressure on cost of sales.

Operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue was 28.7 percent for the
third quarter and 28.2 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 1994,
compared to 31.6 percent of net revenue for the third quarter and 31.4
percent for the first nine months of fiscal 1993.  These decreases reflect
ongoing efforts to adjust expense structures and the effects of the change
in the mix of products sold as mentioned above.  Operating expenses increased
11 percent for the third quarter and 10 percent for the first nine months of
1994 over the corresponding year-ago periods.  These increases resulted
primarily from increased research and development and field selling expenses. 
The increased investment in research and development reflects the Company's
belief that success in a global marketplace requires a continuing flow of
innovative, high-quality products.  A strong incoming order performance this
quarter increased bonuses and commissions in field selling expenses.

Interest Income and Other Income (Expense) - Interest income and other income
(expense) increased to $24 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1994, from
$1 million in the same period of fiscal 1993.  The increase is largely due
to gains realized on the sale of certain equity investments and interest
income on higher cash balances.

Provision for Taxes - The provision for taxes as a percentage of earnings
before taxes was 34 percent for both the third quarter and the first nine
months of fiscal 1994, compared to 32 percent for the third quarter and 34
percent for the first nine months of fiscal 1993.  The lower third quarter
1993 tax rate resulted from a year-to-date adjustment to reduce the estimated
1993 tax rate from 35 percent to 34 percent to reflect changes in the
geographic mix of the Company's earnings.

                                   6

Net Earnings - Net earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 1994 were $347
million, or $1.33 per share on an average of 261 million shares, compared to
net earnings of $271 million, or $1.06 per share, on an average of 254
million shares for the third quarter of fiscal 1993.  For the nine months
ended July 31, 1994, net earnings were $1.1 billion, or $4.31 per share on
an average of 260 million shares, compared to net earnings of $879 million,
or $3.47 per share, on an average of 253 million shares for the first nine
months of fiscal 1993.  In fiscal 1994, net earnings per share were computed
based on a method which approximates the use of a weighted-average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during each period. 
Common share equivalents represent the dilutive effect of outstanding stock
options.  In previous periods, common share equivalents were not included as
their effect was considered immaterial.  The inclusion of these equivalents
in fiscal 1994 reduced earnings per share for the three and nine months ended
July 31, 1994 by 3 and 11 cents, respectively.


FINANCIAL CONDITION
- - -------------------

Liquidity and Capital Resources - The Company's financial position remains
strong, with cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $2.5
billion at July 31, 1994.  Cash flows from operations were $1.4 billion
during the first nine months of fiscal 1994 compared to $1.0 billion for the
corresponding period of fiscal 1993.  The increase in cash flows from
operations for fiscal 1994 was primarily attributable to higher net earnings,
lower inventory growth and changes in other current assets and liabilities. 
These factors were partially offset by increased growth in accounts and notes
receivable and taxes on earnings.  While the Company experienced slower
inventory growth for the first nine months of fiscal 1994, inventory
management remains an area of focus.
 
Capital expenditures for the first nine months of fiscal 1994 were $817
million, compared to $962 million for the corresponding period in the
previous year.  The decrease was primarily because certain major investments
have been deferred to future periods.

The changes in investment and borrowing activities during the first nine
months of fiscal 1994, when compared to the same period in 1993, resulted
from changes in the Company's liquidity requirements to meet short-term
working capital needs.

Under the Company's ongoing stock repurchase program, shares have been
purchased periodically to meet employee stock plan requirements.  During the
nine months ended July 31, 1994, the Company purchased and retired
approximately 2.8 million shares for an aggregate price of $219 million. 
During the nine months ended July 31, 1993, the Company repurchased and
retired 1.8 million shares for an aggregate price of $137 million.
