Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
         and Results of Operations

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Total capital structure was $3.662 billion at June 30, 1995, reflecting 
49% common and preferred equity and 51% debt.  This compares to a capital 
structure of $3.531 billion at December 31, 1994, reflecting 46% common and 
preferred equity and 54% debt.  The Company's financial strength continues to 
provide it the flexibility to make necessary and desirable capital expenditures
and to expand its presence into new and existing telephone, cellular and 
information services markets.

     Capital expenditures for the three and six month periods in 1995 were
$139.4 million and $279.5 million, respectively, compared to $146.8 million 
and $256.4 million for the same periods in 1994.  During the first six months 
of 1995, the Company financed the majority of its capital expenditures through 
the internal generation of funds.  Capital expenditures are forecast at $549.6
million for 1995, which are expected to be financed primarily from internally 
generated funds.  The Company's capital expenditures were directed toward 
telephone operations to continue to modernize its network and invest in new 
equipment to provide new telecommunications services.  In addition, capital 
expenditures were incurred for expansion into existing cellular and information
services markets, and to upgrade the Company's cellular network facilities.

     The Company has a $500 million revolving credit agreement.  Total 
borrowings outstanding under this agreement were $168.4 million at 
June 30, 1995, compared to $132.0 million at December 31, 1994.  At
June 30, 1994, $104.4 million was outstanding under this agreement.  The 
increase in borrowings under the revolving credit agreement for the six and 
twelve month periods was incurred for expansion of cellular investments and 
for other general corporate requirements.

     Long-term debt issued in the three and six month periods of 1995 
consisted of additional borrowings under the revolving credit agreement.  
During the fourth quarter of 1994, subsidiaries issued $60 million of 8.05 
percent notes and $30 million of 8.17 percent notes to refinance existing 
high-cost indebtedness.  The issuance of the notes by the subsidiaries and 
additional borrowings under the revolving credit agreement account for the 
majority of long-term debt issued during the twelve months ended June 30, 1995.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Telephone Operations

     In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company purchased all of the assets of 
the telephone operations of GTE Corporation ("GTE") in the state of Georgia 
("GTE Georgia") in exchange for the Company's telephone operations in Illinois,
Indiana and Michigan and $443 million in cash.  The exchange was accounted for 
as a purchase, and accordingly, GTE Georgia's results of operations have been 
included in the consolidated financial statements beginning November 1, 1993.

     Telephone operations revenues and sales increased $7.2 million or 2%, 
$15.4 million or 3%, and $76.3 million or 7% for the three, six, and twelve 
months ended June 30, 1995, respectively. Telephone operating income increased 
$6.3 million or 6%, $12.6 million or 6% and $26.9 million or 7% for the three, 
six and twelve month periods, respectively. The acquisition of the GTE Georgia 
properties accounted for $74.6 million of the increase in revenues and sales 
and $34.4 million of the increase in operating income for the twelve month 
period, respectively. The increases in revenues and operating income as a 
result of the GTE Georgia acquisition were partially offset by a reduction in 
network access and long-distance revenues due to certain regulatory actions 
discussed below.

     Local service revenue increased $6.5 million or 7%, $12.3 million or 6% 
and $46.8 million or 13% in the three, six, and twelve month periods, 
respectively.  The increase in revenues for the three and six month periods 
primarily resulted from growth in customer access lines and growth in custom 
calling feature revenues.  The acquisition of the GTE Georgia properties 
accounted for $28.6 million of the increase in local service revenues for the 
twelve month period.  Increases in customer access lines and growth in custom
calling feature revenues also contributed to the increase in revenues for the 
twelve month period.  There have been no local rate increases granted to any of
the Company's telephone subsidiaries during 1995, and management does not 
anticipate filing for any local rate increases during the remainder of 1995.

     Network access and long-distance revenues decreased $0.6 million for the
three month period, increased $0.7 million for the six month period and 
increased $19.4 million or 3% for the twelve month period, respectively.  The 
acquisition of the GTE Georgia properties accounted for $40.0 million of the 
increase in network access and long-distance revenues for the twelve month 
period.  Although higher volumes of access usage occurred in all periods of 
1995, growth in network access and long-distance revenues has been impacted by
certain regulatory commission actions designed to reduce earnings levels in 
Ohio (effective May 1, 1994) and California (effective January 1, 1995).  
Additionally, two of the Company's telephone operating subsidiaries changed 
their method of settling interstate access revenues from an average schedule to
cost method.  The effect of these regulatory actions have resulted in net 
decreases in revenues of approximately $5.5 million, $13.9 million and $27.8 
million for the three, six and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1995, 
respectively.

                                       4

     Miscellaneous revenues increased $1.4 million or 4%, $2.4 million or 3% 
and $10.0 million or 7% for the three, six and twelve month periods, 
respectively.  The increases in the three and six month periods were primarily 
due to increases in direct sales of telephone equipment, sales of telephone 
equipment protection plans and directory advertising revenues.  The acquisition
of the GTE Georgia properties accounted for $6.0 million of the increase in 
the twelve month period. Increases in direct sales of telephone equipment, 
intrastate billing and collection revenues, rental revenues, directory 
advertising revenues and sales of telephone equipment protection plans also 
contributed to the increase in revenues for the twelve month period.

     Total telephone operating expenses increased $0.9 million, $2.8 million 
or 1%, and $49.4 million or 7% for the three, six, and twelve month periods, 
respectively.  The acquisition of the GTE Georgia properties accounted for 
$40.2 million of the increase in operating expenses for the twelve month 
period.  Operating expenses for all periods increased due to increased expense 
for maintenance and repair of cable, digital electronic switching and circuit 
equipment, increased cost of products sold related to direct sales of telephone
equipment and protection plans, and increased information service charges and 
depreciation expense.  These increases were partially offset by lower 
maintenance expense related to electro-mechanical switching equipment, and 
decreases in call completion services and other general and administrative 
expenses, reflecting the Company's ongoing cost control efforts.  Operating 
expenses also decreased in all periods due to the elimination of transitional 
customer billing services provided by GTE for the GTE Georgia properties.  
These properties were converted to the Company's billing system in February 
1994.

     In November 1994, the Company signed definitive agreements to sell 
certain telephone properties serving approximately 113,000 access lines in 
Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah and West 
Virginia to Citizens Utilities Company ("Citizens") in exchange for 
approximately $290 million in cash, assumed debt and 3,600 access lines in 
Pennsylvania. The sale of the telephone properties in Oregon and West
Virginia were completed at the end of the second quarter of 1995, and resulted
in a pre-tax gain of $30.9 million.  The sale of the remaining telephone 
properties will be completed on a state-by-state basis as necessary 
regulatory approvals are obtained.  The Company expects to complete the sale of
the remaining properties by the end of 1995, assuming the required regulatory 
approvals are received and that all other conditions and requirements are 
satisfied.  The telephone properties to be disposed of represent approximately 
10 percent of the telephone operations' revenues and operating income for the 
three, six and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1995, respectively.

                                       5

     The Company's telephone subsidiaries follow the accounting for regulated 
enterprises prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 71, 
"Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation" ("SFAS 71").  If 
the Company's telephone subsidiaries no longer qualify for the provisions of 
SFAS 71, the accounting impact to the Company would be an extraordinary 
non-cash charge to operations of an amount that could be material.  Criteria 
that would give rise to the discontinuance of SFAS 71 include (1) increasing 
competition that restricts the telephone subsidiaries' ability to establish 
prices to recover specific costs, and (2) a significant change in the manner 
in which rates are set by regulators from cost-based regulation to another 
form of regulation.  The Company's management periodically reviews these 
criteria to ensure the continuing application of SFAS 71 is appropriate.

Information Services

     Revenues and sales for the information services segment reflect increases 
of $12.5 million or 6%, $31.0 million or 7% and $121.1 million or 16% for the 
three, six and twelve month periods, respectively.  Growth in operating income 
for the information services segment continues to be adversely affected by the 
number of mergers and consolidations occurring in the financial services and 
mortgage industries and the slowdown of mortgage refinancing activities.  As a
result, operating income decreased $5.4 million or 16%, $7.1 million or 11% and
increased $1.3 million or 1% for the three, six and twelve month periods, 
respectively.

     Information services' revenues and sales increased in all periods 
primarily due to increases in the telecommunications and healthcare portions of
its outsourcing business.  Additional services provided under new and existing 
facilities management contracts, additional software maintenance revenues, an 
increase in the number of loans processed, and increased usage of specialized 
programming service offerings also contributed to the increase in revenues and 
sales for all periods.  Healthcare services' revenues and sales increased
primarily due to the acquisitions of Medical Data Technology, Inc. ("MDT") in 
November 1994 and TDS Healthcare Systems Corporation ("TDS")in October 1993.  
The increases in revenues and sales for all periods were partially offset by 
lost operations from contract terminations due primarily to the merger and 
consolidation activity in the financial services market, a reduction in 
revenues collected for early termination of facilities management contracts,
and by decreases in software licensing fees and international software sales.  
As a result of the consolidation of the mortgage industry and the decrease in
mortgage refinancing activity, fees earned related to the processing and 
servicing of mortgage loans also decreased in all periods.

                                       6

<PAGE>

     The decreases in operating income for the three and six month periods 
primarily resulted from lost operations due to contract terminations, an 
increase in operating costs including corporate operations and depreciation and
amortization expense, and by reductions in high margin licensing fees and fees 
collected on the early termination of facilities management contracts.  The 
increase in operating income for the twelve month period reflects the increase 
in revenues and sales previously discussed, partially offset by a reduction in 
fees collected on the early termination of facilities management contracts, 
lost operations from contract terminations, a reduction in high margin 
licensing fees, and increases in corporate operating expenses and depreciation 
and amortization expense.  The increase in corporate operating expenses for all
periods reflects approximately $3 million in severance pay costs relating to 
the planned workforce reduction announced by this segment in June 1995.  
Depreciation and amortization expense increased in all periods primarily due to
the acquisition of additional data processing equipment and due to an increase 
in amortization of internally developed software.

     As a result of the declining contributions from this segment's check 
processing and community banking operations, the Company recorded a pre-tax 
write-down of approximately $54.2 million to reflect the net realizable value 
of these operations in December 1994.  In accordance with the Company's plan 
for the disposal of the check processing operations, the Company recorded an 
additional $5.0 million pre-tax write-down in the second quarter of 1995 to 
reflect the current estimated net realizable value of these operations.

                                       7

Product Distribution Operations

     The product distribution segment produced double-digit growth in both 
revenues and sales and operating income.  Revenues and sales reflect increases
of $10.8 million or 10%, $21.7 million or 10% and $70.0 million or 18% for the 
three, six and twelve month periods, respectively.  Operating income increased 
$1.4 million or 25%, $3.2 million or 29% and $8.1 million or 43% for the three,
six and twelve month periods, respectively.

     The increases in revenues and sales for all periods were primarily due to 
growth in sales of telecommunications and data products to new and existing 
customers.  Increased sales to affiliates accounted for approximately $5.2 
million, $7.4 million and $37.9 million of the increase in sales for the three,
six and twelve month periods, respectively.  Sales of electrical wire and cable
also increased in all periods reflecting increased copper prices and a higher 
demand for these products.

     Operating income increased in all periods primarily because of the 
increases in revenues and sales noted above.  Increased profit margins of 
electrical wire and cable products, primarily resulting from the increase in 
copper prices, also contributed to the growth in operating income in all 
periods.  These increases were partially offset by an increase in 
selling-related expenses.

Cellular Operations

     Cellular operations provided solid operating results and contributed 
significantly to the Company's overall earnings growth.   Revenues and sales 
reflect increases of $34.9 million or 51%, $63.6 million or 49% and $121.0 
million or 53% for the three, six and twelve month periods, respectively.  
Operating income increased $11.2 million or 51%, $17.5 million or 47% and 
$39.0 million or 62% for the three, six and twelve month periods, respectively.
Subscriber growth remained strong, as approximately 159,000 units have been 
placed in service during the first six months of 1995, reflecting the results 
of several aggressive sales promotions.  For the twelve month period ended 
June 30, 1995, the number of cellular customers grew to 568,098 from 360,493, 
an increase of 207,605 customers or 58%.

     Cellular operations revenues and sales increased in all periods primarily 
due to the significant growth in its customer base.  The acquisition of new 
cellular properties also contributed to the growth in revenues and sales in all
periods.  Operating income increased for all periods reflecting the increases 
in revenues and sales noted above, partially offset by higher expenses for 
selling and advertising, depreciation and other operating expenses.

                                       8
<PAGE>

Other Operations

     Other operations revenues and sales decreased $7.8 million or 18%, $12.9 
million or 14% and increased $11.1 million or 8% for the three, six and twelve
month periods, respectively.  Operating income decreased $2.6 million or 59%, 
$4.9 million or 54% and $3.3 million or 24% for the three, six and twelve month
periods, respectively.

     Revenues and sales for other operations decreased in the three and six 
month periods primarily due to a change in accounting related to the 
publication of directories.  Concurrent with the purchase of the independent 
telephone directory operations of GTE Directories Corporation 
("GTE Directories") effective October 1993, the Company began recognizing all 
revenues and expenses related to a published directory in the month of 
publication, instead of recognizing the revenues and expenses ratably over a 
twelve month period.  As a result of this change, revenues and sales for the 
three, six and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1994 include approximately 
$5.7 million, $13.8 million and $32.9 million, respectively, of additional 
revenues related to directories accounted for under the previous method.  In 
addition, fewer directories were published in the three and six month periods 
of 1995 compared to the prior-year periods.  The increase in revenues and sales
for the twelve month period was primarily due to the growth in publishing 
operations attributable to the purchase of the GTE Directories' operations 
discussed above.  As a result of this acquisition, the number of directories 
published during the twelve months ended June 30, 1995 was 357 compared to 
only 234 directories published during the same period in 1994.  The 
acquisition of the GTE Directories' operations accounted for $39.4 million of 
the increase in revenues and sales for the twelve month period.  This increase 
was partially offset by the impact on operating revenues due to the change in 
revenue and expense recognition discussed above.

     Operating income decreased in the three and six month periods primarily 
due to the decreases in revenues and sales previously noted.  Operating income 
for the twelve month period decreased primarily due to increases in operating 
expenses including publishing rights, directory services, printing and 
distribution costs and selling-related expenses, resulting from the overall 
growth and expansion of the directory publishing operations.  For all periods 
of 1995, operating income also reflects lower margins realized on directories 
published for affiliates, due to increased fees for publishing rights under 
the terms of a new contract that became effective January 1, 1995.

                                       9

Corporate Expenses

     Corporate operating expenses increased $3.1 million or 65%, $2.2 million 
or 21% and $0.5 million or 2% for the three, six and twelve month periods, 
respectively.  The increases in all periods reflect the reclassification of 
the amortization of telephone plant acquisition adjustments related to the GTE 
Georgia properties acquisition.  For all periods of 1994, this amortization 
expense was classified as non-operating expense.  Increased employee benefit 
costs also contributed to the increases in corporate operating expenses for 
the three and twelve month periods.  The increases for the twelve month period
were partially offset by a reduction in operating expenses including costs 
related to building operations.

Other Income, Net

     Other income, net increased $2.9 million or 94%, $5.7 million or 132% 
and $2.9 million or 90% for the three, six and twelve month periods, 
respectively.  The increases in all periods were primarily due to increases in
equity income recognized on investments in cellular limited partnerships and 
increases in capitalized interest costs related to long-term construction 
projects.  In addition, other income, net for all periods of 1995 does not 
include the amortization of telephone plant acquisition adjustments related to
the GTE Georgia properties acquisition that were reclassified to corporate 
operating expenses as previously discussed.  The increases in all periods were
partially offset by increases in the minority interest in earnings of the 
Company's cellular operations by others.  The increases in equity income for 
all periods reflects the improved operating results of those partnership 
interests not managed by the Company.

Interest Expense

     Interest expense increased $3.4 million or 10%, $9.0 million or 14% and 
$27.6 million or 23% for the three, six and twelve month periods, respectively,
primarily due to an increase in long-term debt outstanding.  The increase in 
interest expense for the three month period reflects the additional amounts 
borrowed under the Company's revolving credit agreement.  The increases in 
interest expense for the six and twelve month periods primarily resulted from 
the issuance of $250 million debentures in April 1994 to reduce borrowings 
under the Company's revolving credit agreement.  The increase in interest 
expense for the twelve month period also reflects the issuance of $400 million
debentures in November 1993 to finance the GTE Georgia properties acquisition.

Gain on Disposal or Exchange of Assets, Write-down of Assets and Other

     As previously discussed, during the second quarter of 1995, the Company 
recorded a gain of $30.9 million on the sale of its telephone properties in 
West Virginia and Oregon to Citizens, and the Company recorded an additional 
write-down of $5.0 million to reflect the current estimated net realizable 
value of its information services segment's check processing operations.  The 
net income impact from these transactions resulted in an increase of $16.6 
million in net income and $.09 in earnings per share for the three and six 
month periods ended June 30, 1995, respectively.

     In addition to reflecting the impact of the above transactions, net 
income for the twelve month period also includes a write-down of $54.2 million 
recorded by the Company in the fourth quarter of 1994.  This write-down was 
recorded to reflect the net realizable value of the Company's information 
services segment's community banking and check processing operations.  The 
net income impact from the gain on the sale of telephone properties and the 
write-downs resulted in a decrease of $.08 in earnings per share for the 
twelve month period ended June 30, 1995.

     In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company recorded a gain on exchange of 
telephone properties with GTE, which was partially offset by the reorganization 
of its telephone operations as a result of this transaction.  These 
transactions amounted to $69.9 million.  In addition, the Company recorded a 
write-down of $42.5 million to reflect an impairment in the carrying value of 
its product distribution operations.  The net income impact of these 
transactions is not significant to the results of operations for the twelve 
month period ended June 30, 1994.

Income Taxes

     Income tax expense increased $11.4 million or 24%, increased $13.1 million
or 14% and decreased $26.0 million or 13% for the three, six and twelve month
periods, respectively.  The increase in the three and six month periods 
primarily resulted from an increase in taxable income.  The decrease in income 
tax expense for the twelve month period was primarily due to the tax benefit
resulting from the write-down of the information services operations recorded 
in December 1994. In addition, income tax expense for the twelve months ended 
June 30, 1994 does not reflect a tax benefit from the write-down of product 
distribution operations, since utilization of the benefit is not certain.

                                       11

Net Income Applicable to Common Shares

     Net income applicable to common shares increased $22.0 million or 29%, 
$28.7 million or 19% and $17.5 million or 6% for the three, six and twelve 
month periods, respectively.  Primary earnings per common share for the three, 
six and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1995 increased 30%, 19% and 6%, 
respectively over the same periods in 1994. The three and six month periods 
for 1995 include the effect of the gain on the sale of certain telephone 
properties and the additional write-down of the information services segment's 
check processing operations. The net income impact from these transactions 
resulted in an increase of $.09 in earnings per share.  The twelve month period
for 1995 also includes the effect of the December 1994 write-down of the 
information services segment's community banking and check processing 
operations.  Excluding these transactions, net income would have increased 
$5.3 million or 7%, $12.0 million or 8% and $32.9 million or 12% and earnings 
per share would have increased 8%, 8% and 11% for the three, six and twelve 
month periods, respectively.

     The twelve month period for 1994 includes the effect of the net gain on 
exchange of telephone properties with GTE partially offset by the 
reorganization of the Company's telephone operations and the partial 
write-down of the product distribution operations.  The net income impact of 
these transactions is not significant to the results of operations for the 
twelve month period.

Average Common Shares Outstanding

     The average number of common shares outstanding increased slightly in
each of the three, six and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1995. The 
increases in all periods are primarily due to additional shares issued under 
stock option plans.  The increases in the three and six month periods also 
reflect the issuance of approximately 0.3 million shares in connection with 
the acquisition of MDT.  The increase in the twelve month period also reflects 
the issuance of approximately 2.0 million shares in October 1993 for the 
acquisition of TDS.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.    FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION:

      The consolidated financial statements at June 30, 1995 and 1994 and for 
      the three, six and twelve month periods then ended are unaudited and 
      reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
      which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair 
      presentation of the financial position and operating results for the 
      interim periods.

2.    PENDING SALE OF CERTAIN TELEPHONE PROPERTIES:

      In November 1994, the Company signed definitive agreements to sell 
      certain telephone properties serving approximately 113,000 access lines 
      in Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah and 
      West Virginia to Citizens Utilities in exchange for approximately $290 
      million in cash, assumed debt and 3,600 access lines in Pennsylvania.  In
      addition, the Company signed a long-term agreement to provide information
      processing services for the telephone operations of Citizens Utilities. 
      The sale of the telephone properties in Oregon and West Virginia was
      completed at the end of the second quarter and resulted in a pre-tax 
      gain of $30.9 million.  The sale of the remaining telephone properties 
      will be completed on a state-by-state basis as necessary regulatory 
      approvals are obtained.  The Company expects to complete the sale of the
      remaining properties by the end of 1995, assuming the required regulatory
      approvals are received and that all other conditions and requirements are
      satisfied.  Once completed, this transaction will result in the Company's
      telephone operating subsidiaries serving approximately 1.5 million access
      lines in 14 states.  Net proceeds from this transaction will be used to 
      reduce the Company's outstanding long-term debt.  The operations of 
      the telephone properties to be disposed of represented approximately 4 
      percent of the Company's revenues and approximately 6 percent, 6 percent 
      and 9 percent of the Company's net income for the three, six and twelve 
      month periods ended June 30, 1995, respectively.

To ALLTEL STOCKHOLDERS:

ALLTEL Corporation recently announced its financial results for the period 
ended June 30, 1995.
         Second quarter earnings were 52 cents per share, compared to 40 cents 
per share a year ago. Net income was $98,104,000, compared to $76,187,000 in 
the second quarter of 1994. Revenues and sales were $786,476,000, up from 
$728,898,000 in the corresponding quarter of 1994.
         The 1995 second quarter results include a net after-tax gain of $17 
million or 9 cents per share, resulting from the previously announced sale of 
ALLTEL's West Virginia and Oregon telephone operations. Excluding the gain, net
income from operations was $81,497,000, and earnings per share were 43 cents, 
up 8 percent from the second quarter of 1994.
         Earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 1995 were 93 
cents, compared to 78 cents a 
year ago. Net income was $176,727,000, compared to $148,073,000 in the year-ago
period. Revenues and sales were $1,550,091,000, up from $1,431,322,000 in 1994.
Excluding the net gain from the sale of telephone properties, net income and 
earnings per share rose 8 percent to $160,120,000 and 84 cents, respectively, 
from the prior-year period.
         Telephone, which showed a modest increase in revenues, posted solid 
gains in operating income - reflecting the impact of ALLTEL's ongoing 
productivity and cost-control efforts.
         Cellular continues to be the primary driver of the Company's earnings 
growth, with revenues and operating income up 51 percent. The first quarter 
surge in sales, which temporarily reduced first quarter margins, contributed 
to the strong earnings growth in the second quarter.
         Information Services' results included an approximately $3 million, 
one-time charge relating to a workforce reduction of 200 employees announced 
in June. Excluding this one-time charge, results from operations reflect a 
solid improvement over the first quarter.

ALLTEL NAMED TO FORTUNE 500

For the first time, ALLTEL is included in Fortune 500, Fortune magazine's 
ranking of the largest corporations in America.
         This year, the Fortune 500, which had been limited to industrial 
firms, began including service companies, in recognition of the increasingly 
important role these companies play in the economy.
         ALLTEL ranked 384 in revenues, 216 in profits and 285 in assets. In 
the area of total return to investors, the Company placed 160.
