              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
               FOR THE PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994

(1)         The interim consolidated condensed financial statements are
            unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all
            adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
            operations and financial position for such periods.  All such
            adjustments reflected in the interim consolidated condensed
            financial statements are considered to be of a normal recurring
            nature.  The results of operations for any interim period are not
            necessarily indicative of results for the full year. These
            financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
            financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's
            annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1995.

(2)         Net income per common share is computed based on the weighted
            average number of shares of common stock and common stock
            equivalents (stock options) outstanding during each period.

                 LANCASTER COLONY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
                 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
               FOR THE PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

            For the quarter ended September 30, 1995, net sales totaled
$200,902,000  compared to $189,130,000 recorded in the corresponding period of
1994.  This 6% increase primarily resulted from the continuing growth of the
Glassware and Candles segment.  The Specialty Foods segment also reflected
increased net sales as led by a greater volume of foodservice products.  Total
net sales of the Automotive segment declined as a result of a weakening in the
markets for both original equipment and aftermarket products.

            On a consolidated basis, the gross margin percentage for the 1995
period of 29.5% declined from the 30.1% recorded during the comparable 1994
quarter.  The overall decline reflects improved margins in the Glassware and
Candles segment, offset by declining margins in the Automotive and Specialty
Foods segments.  The improved margins in the Glassware and Candles segment were
achieved as a result of a more profitable sales mix and the contribution of
volume-driven efficiencies.  However, the Automotive segment experienced
notably reduced margins as generally higher unit costs of production resulted
from the presence of greater raw material prices and the effects of curtailed
production schedules on overhead absorption.  Certain of these increased raw
materials costs have moderated going into the quarter ending December 31, 1995.
The increasing proportion of foodservice sales within the Specialty Foods
segment continues to adversely impact the gross margins of this segment.

            Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months
ended September 1995 totaled $33,424,000 or 16.6% of net sales compared to
$31,574,000 or 16.7% of net sales for the three months ended September 1994.
Growth in the Glassware and Candles segment contributed to the overall increase
in these expenses.

            On a consolidated basis, the foregoing factors combined to generate
pretax net income of $25,264,000 for the three months ended September 1995
compared to $25,136,000 in the corresponding period of 1994.  With the
effective tax rate remaining essentially unchanged from that of the prior year,
net income for the 1995 quarter totaled $15,408,000 compared to $15,320,000 in
1994.

                              FINANCIAL CONDITION

            For the three months ended September 30, 1995, net cash provided by
operating activities totaled $2,825,000 compared to $3,569,000 used in
operating activities during the corresponding period of 1994.  During the 1995
period, cash was required to support increased levels of accounts receivable
and inventory resulting primarily from the growth and certain seasonal
requirements of the Glassware and Candles segment.  A portion of the overall
increase in accounts receivable and inventory was funded by corporate
short-term bank borrowings that totaled $12,500,000 as of September 30.

            Other significant uses of cash during the most recent quarter
included $8,952,000 for the repurchase of common stock as well as $9,474,000
for capital expenditures.  The most significant of the latter expenditures
related to the construction of expanded and enhanced distribution facilities at
the Company's candle manufacturing facility in Leesburg, Ohio.  Management
anticipates that cash  from future operating  activities and  cash available
from the currently

                                    7 of 9
<PAGE>   8
available discretionary bank credit lines will be adequate to meet the
Company's foreseeable cash requirements over the balance of fiscal 1996.

            Cash utilized for the payment of dividends in the most recent
quarter totaled $4,437,000 compared to $3,623,000 in the corresponding 1994
quarter.  This increase was the result of cash dividends per share increasing
from $.12 per share to $.15 per share.
