July 31, 1994 and 1993 and cash flows for the nine months ended July 31, 1994
and 1993 have been prepared by Neutrogena Corporation (the "Company") without
audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring accruals) have been made which are necessary to present fairly the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries at July 31, l994 and for all periods presented.
Although the Company believes that the disclosure in the condensed consolidated
financial statements is adequate for a fair presentation thereof, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The October 31, 1993 audited statements were included in
the Company's annual report on Form 10-K under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in
that annual report.
The results of operations for the period ended July 31, 1994 are not necessarily
indicative of the results for the full year.

NOTE D -
The Company adopted, effective November 1, 1992, Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes," issued in
February 1992. Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.
The adoption of SFAS 109 increased net income, on a one-time basis, for the nine
months ended July 31, 1993 by $1,069 or $.04 per share.
NOTE E -
On September 21, 1993, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase
up to 1,000,000 shares of its Common Stock from time to time in the open market

not purchased any shares under this authorization.
NOTE F -
On August 22, 1994, the Company announced that it has entered into a definitive
agreement with Johnson & Johnson whereby, Johnson & Johnson through a wholly-

Johnson & Johnson and the Company have given approval to the acquisition.
Under the agreement, Johnson & Johnson, through a cash tender offer has offerred
to buy all of the outstanding shares of the Company for $35.25 per share. Any
shares not purchased in the offer will be acquired for the same price in cash,
in a second-step merger. The offer began on August 26, 1994 and is scheduled to
expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on September 23, 1994 unless the
offer is extended.
Mr. Lloyd E. Cotsen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, has
entered into an agreement with Johnson & Johnson under which he has agreed to

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
Neutrogena Corporation:
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Neutrogena
Corporation as of July 31, 1994, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of income and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods
ended July 31, 1994 in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting
and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. All information included in these condensed consolidated
financial statements is the representation of management of Neutrogena
Corporation.
A review consists principally of inquiries of Company personnel and analytical
procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the condensed financial statements referred to above for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Neutrogena Corporation as of
October 31, 1993, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
November 30, 1993, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 1993, is
fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated
balance sheet from which it has been derived.

NEUTROGENA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1994 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1993
Net sales for the three months ended July 31, 1994 reached $77.6 million for an
increase of $16.0 million or 25.9%. New product sales reached $8.1 million (a
product is defined as a new product until it has completed one full fiscal year
of sales). Volume on existing products increased $10.0 million in part because
of increased U.S. promotional activity during the quarter.
Sales in the United States reached $63.5 million for an increase of $14.1
million or 28.6%. International sales (which includes U.S. based export)
reached $14.1 million for an increase of $1.8 million or 14.9%.
Gross profit margin increased to 74.8% of sales from 72.5%. This increase in
gross profit margin was due to operating efficiencies, lower procurement costs
and changes in product mix. Marketing and selling expense increased to 56.6% of
sales from 49.5%. This increase was due to a concentration of television and
print advertising and other promotional support which helped increase sales.
These marketing and selling support expenses were low during the third quarter
of the prior year. General and Administrative expense decreased to 5.1% of
sales compared to 6.4% in the prior year.
Income from operations remained essentially flat due to the planned promotional
calendar during the quarter and a reduction in International Division results
due in part, to the poor economic condition in Southern Europe.
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 37.0% as compared to 39.9% in the
prior year. The effective tax rate was principally effected by increased sales
volume manufactured in the Company's facility located in a tax free zone in
France.
NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1994 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1993
Net sales for the first nine months reached $211.3 million for an increase of
$12.8 million or 6.5%. New product sales contributed $19.5 million, while
volume on existing products fell by $4.2 million. Translation of foreign
currency into U.S. dollars decreased sales by $1.3 million.
Sales in the United States totaled $166.7 million for an increase of $10.1
million or 6.5%.
International sales reached $44.6 million for an increase of $2.7 million or
6.5%.
NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1994 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1993
(Continued)
Gross profit margin for the first nine months was 74.4% of sales compared to
73.8% during 1993. The increase in gross profit margin was principally due to
increased operating efficiencies and lower procurement costs. Marketing and
selling expense increased by 1.3% to 58.3% of sales due to increased promotional
support expenses for the new products.
Income from operations remained constant at approximately 11% of sales.
The effective tax rate for the nine months was 37.0% compared to 38.0% during
1993. The effective tax rate was impacted by the effect of sales volume
manufactured in the Company's facility located in a tax-free zone in France.
Net income (before the cumulative effect of changes in accounting for income
taxes SFAS 109) increased by 9.2%.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
For the nine months ended July 31, 1994, cash and temporary investments
decreased by $16.9 million. This decrease was caused by annual payments of
trade allowance programs, dividends, and acquisition of fixed assets offset by
cash generated from operations.
The Company continues to use short-term debt in Europe to, in part, assist in
foreign exchange management. As of July 31, 1994, the debt balance was $7.4
million. Additional borrowing may be made as deemed necessary.
The Company believes its current cash position, the working capital generated by
future operations and the ability to borrow from financial institutions should
be adequate to meet its financing requirements for current operations and the
foreseeable future.
SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Reference is made to Note F of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q for a description of the definitive
agreement with Johnson & Johnson whereby, Johnson & Johnson will acquire the
