                       NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED
                         FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE
                    PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 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.  Accordingly, 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, 1994.

(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.

(3)       On July 20, 1994, a four-for-three stock split was effected whereby
          one additional common share was issued for each three shares
          outstanding to shareholders of record on June 20, 1994.  Accordingly,
          all per share data and the weighted average common shares outstanding
          for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 1994 in the
          accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements have been
          retroactively adjusted for this split.

(4)       As approved by its shareholders, the Company has an incentive stock
          option plan by which 3,625,000 common shares may be issued under
          options granted pursuant to terms of the plan.  During the third
          quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company granted approximately 210,000
          options to employees and officers of the Company.  As of March 31,
          1995, options for approximately 2,840,000 shares have been granted
          and 2,518,000 have been exercised under the plan.

                 LANCASTER COLONY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
                 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
                 FOR THE PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1994

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          Consolidated net sales of $606,353,000 and $191,975,000 for the
respective nine and three months ended March 31, 1995 increased 13% and 12%
over the corresponding totals of $537,070,000 and $171,492,000 of fiscal 1994.
The sales of the Glassware and Candles segment contributed most prominently to
this increase with sales of the segment's candle products experiencing
significant growth throughout fiscal 1995.  For the nine month period,
Automotive segment sales benefitted from a generally increased level of
domestic new vehicle sales, particularly with respect to light trucks and vans.
The implementation of certain cost-driven price increases during this period
also contributed to progressively increased sales revenues.  Within the
Specialty Foods segment, greater foodservice volumes led to an increase in
sales for each of the comparable periods presented.

          Consolidated gross margins have been adversely affected throughout
1995 by certain increased raw material costs.  The impact of increased raw
material costs has been most pronounced within the Automotive segment where
aluminum, rubber and resin-based plastic materials have undergone increases in
excess of the segment's ability to increase related sales prices.  Impacting
the nine month results were increased costs for soybean oil, a major ingredient
of the Specialty Foods segment.  The increased foodservice mix within the
Specialty Foods segment also reduced consolidated gross margins during fiscal
1995.  Finally, all segments have experienced significantly higher corrugated
costs during fiscal 1995.  The foregoing factors were partially offset by
certain productivity improvements, particularly in the Glassware and Candles
segment, where increased volume, recent capital expenditures and process
improvements combined to enhance this segment's margins.

          Selling, general and administrative expenses of $100,064,000 and
$31,899,000 for the respective nine and three month periods ended March 31,
1995 increased less than 2% from the totals recorded during the comparable
periods of 1994.  Mitigating the increase in such costs were efforts to reduce
promotional costs in the Specialty Foods segment as well as issues involving
changes in sales mix.  Additionally, the fixed portion of such operating costs
generally serves to hold the fluctuations of these costs below that of net
sales.

          As a percentage of net sales, income before income taxes and net
income for both periods of fiscal 1995 were approximately 14% and 9%,
respectively, compared to 13% and 8% during the comparable fiscal 1994 periods.
The provision for income taxes for the nine-month period ended March 31, 1994
was impacted by a first-quarter charge of approximately $400,000 to record the
effect of the August 1993 enactment of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1993.

                              FINANCIAL CONDITION

          As of  March 31, the Company's balance sheet reflected net working
capital of $181,237,000 and a current ratio of 3.4:1.0.  As of June 30, 1994,
the respective comparable totals were $163,546,000 and 3.2:1.0.  Cash flows
from operations through March 1995 totaled $34,035,000 compared to $43,620,000
during the nine months ended March 1994.  Contributing to the increase in
accounts receivable at March 31 was the higher level of sales occurring in
March 1995 compared to June 1994.  Inventories were impacted by the general
increase in sales volumes, rising material costs and contingency stocks built
in anticipation of certain labor negotiations.

                        FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED)

          Significant nonoperating uses of cash during the nine  months ended
March 1995 included $16,922,000 for the repurchase of common stock, $22,502,000
for capital expenditures and $12,012,000 for common stock dividends.  The
latter amount reflects the increased dividend rate which totaled $.40 versus
$.32 for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  Through
March 31, the Company's capital structure remains generally  unchanged with
debt (including the short-term portion) comprising 11% of capitalization at
March 31 compared to 13% at June 30.  The Company continues to maintain
discretionary bank lines of credit in excess of $150,000,000 as a contingent
source of short-term financing for future capital or other temporary cash
requirements.  However, absent a significant business acquisition or other
unforeseen events, management currently believes that cash internally generated
from operating activities will be sufficient to meet foreseeable cash
requirements for the remainder of fiscal 1995.
