               RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                            DECEMBER 30, 1994 


Basis of Consolidation

	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of 
Raymond James Financial, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the 
"Company").  All material intercompany balances and transactions have 
been eliminated in consolidation.  These statements reflect all 
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a 
fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.  
All such adjustments made are of a normal recurring nature.  The 
nature of the Company's business is such that the results of any 
interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full 
year.

Commitments and Contingencies

	At December 30, 1994 Raymond James & Associates, Inc. had 
$10,650,887 of government securities held as deposits by the Options 
Clearing Corporation, an amount sufficient to cover unsettled options 
at that date.

	In connection with certain limited partnerships syndicated by 
Raymond James & Associates, Inc., the Company is contingently liable 
as guarantor of certain loans totalling $385,000 at December 30, 1994.  
In connection with the early payoff of its $5.8 million loan to 
Cumberland Healthcare Fund, L.P. I-A, the Company has a commitment to 
relend up to $5 million upon request.  No use of this facility is 
currently anticipated.

	The Company is a defendant or co-defendant in various lawsuits 
incidental to its securities business.  The Company is contesting the 
allegations in these cases and believes that there are meritorious 
defenses in each of these lawsuits.  In view of the number and 
diversity of claims against the Company, the number of jurisdictions 
in which litigation is pending and the inherent difficulty of 
predicting the outcome of litigation and other claims, the Company 
cannot state with certainty what the eventual outcome of pending 
litigation or other claims will be.  In the opinion of management, 
based on discussions with counsel, the outcome of these matters will 
not result in a material adverse effect on the financial position or 
results of operations.



Capital Transactions

	The Company's Board of Directors has, from time to time, adopted 
resolutions authorizing the Company to repurchase its common stock for 
the funding of its incentive stock option and stock purchase plans and 
other corporate purposes.  As of December 30, 1994, management has 
Board authorization to purchase up to 665,000 shares.

	The Board of Directors of the Company increased the quarterly 
cash dividend from $.08 to $.09 per share for fiscal 1995.


Net Capital Requirements

	The broker-dealer subsidiaries of the Company are subject to the 
requirements of Rule 15c3-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  
This rule requires that aggregate indebtedness, as defined, not exceed 
fifteen times net capital, as defined.  Rule 15c3-1 also provides for 
an "alternative net capital requirement" which, if elected, requires 
that net capital be equal to the greater of $250,000 or two percent of 
aggregate debit items computed in applying the formula for 
determination of reserve requirements.  The New York Stock Exchange 
may require a member organization to reduce its business if its net 
capital is less than four percent of aggregate debit items and may 
prohibit a member firm from expanding its business and declaring cash 
dividends if its net capital is less than five percent of aggregate 
debit items.  The net capital positions of the Company's broker-dealer 
subsidiaries at December 30, 1994 were as follows:

	Raymond James & Associates, Inc.:
	   (alternative method elected)
	   Net capital as a percent of aggregate debit items        15.00%
	   Net capital                                             $60,075,000
	   Required net capital                                    $ 7,906,000

	Investment Management & Research, Inc.:
	   Ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital            	 .99
	   Net capital	                                             $4,228,000
	   Required net capital                                    	$  278,000

	Robert Thomas Securities, Inc.:
	   Ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital             2.23
	   Net capital	                                             $1,551,000
 	  Required net capital 	                                   $  250,000


    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
	                      AND FINANCIAL CONDITION



General

	The lackluster financial markets continued during the most recent 
quarter ended December 30, 1994.  Rising interest rates and directionless 
equity markets contributed to investor trepidation, leading to decreased 
activity levels in several of the Company's primary revenue sources.


Results of Operations -	Three months ended December 30, 1994 compared with 
three months ended December 31, 1993.

	Total revenues declined 14%, from $134,413,000 to $115,712,000, while 
net income fell 41%, from $13,278,000 to $7,891,000.

	Securities commission revenues decreased 15%, despite an increase in the 
number of account executives.  Contributing to the reduced productivity was a 
33% decline in mutual fund sales.

	Investment banking is one of the areas which has been severely impacted 
by the recent market conditions.  While merger and acquisition activity 
continued at a reasonable pace, public offering volumes have declined 
dramatically both in the corporate and municipal marketplaces.

	Investment advisory fees rose slightly, in approximate proportion to the 
increase in assets under management as follows:

                   						       December 31,   December 31,   % Increase
						                               1994    	     1993        (Decrease)
                                ------------   ------------   -----------
Assets Under Management (000's):
	
	Eagle Asset Management, Inc.   $  6,035,000	  $  5,895,000        	2.4%
	Heritage Family of Mutual Funds  	1,399,000      1,386,000         0.9%
	Investment Advisory Services	       750,000        684,000         9.6%
	Awad and Associates                 204,000        177,000        15.3%
	Focus Investment Advisors           	48,000         73,000       (34.2)%
	Carillon Asset Management	           88,000	        57,000        54.4%
                                -------------  -------------   ----------
		Total                          $  8,524,000  $  8,272,000         3.0%
                                =============  =============   ==========
	
	Principal trading profits suffered from slower transaction volumes, 
particularly in over-the-counter equities.  This area was also impacted 
negatively by the decline in new issue activity.



	Net interest income achieved a quarterly record of $7.3 million.  Higher 
interest rates have led to increased earnings on the Company's capital, 
largely invested in fixed income securities either as inventories or short-
term investments.  Additionally, both customer margin loan and credit 
interest balances reached all-time highs.

	The decrease in employee compensation expense reflects the declines in 
commission expense and in the numerous incentive compensation arrangements 
which are a function of departmental, subsidiary and overall firm 
profitability.

	The increase in data communications is primarily a result of the costs 
associated with the rollout of new account executive workstations throughout 
the Raymond James & Associates branch offices.

	The significant increase in occupancy and equipment costs was due to 
increased retail branch office space and the purchase of additional computer 
equipment, which is depreciated over very short periods for financial 
reporting purposes.

Other expense declined due to reduced legal and bad debt expenses.

Financial Condition

	The Company's balance sheet has decreased slightly since fiscal year 
end, the result of decreased stock loan/borrow activity, net of increased 
customer credit interest and margin loan balances.  Additionally, customer 
cash deposits rose dramatically as a result of balances transferred from 
money market funds at the end of December to avoid state intangible taxes.  
During the quarter, the Company repurchased 233,000 shares of its common 
stock, thus increasing the number of shares held in treasury.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

	Net cash provided by operating activities for the quarter was 
$81,688,000.  The increase in balances was the primary source of cash.

	Investing and financing activities used $8,442,000 of cash during the 
quarter, primarily due to fixed asset purchases, cash dividends paid and 
repurchases of the Company's common stock.

	The Company has long-term debt in the amount of $13,204,602 in the form 
of a mortgage on the first of its two current headquarters buildings.  The 
second building was constructed using internally generated funds.

	The Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to requirements of 
the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to liquidity and capital 
standards (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).



Effects of Inflation

	The Company's assets are primarily liquid in nature, and are not 
significantly affected by inflation.  Management believes that the changes in 
replacement cost of property and equipment would not materially affect 
operating results.  However, the rate of inflation affects the Company's 
expenses, including employee compensation, data communications and occupancy, 
which may not be readily recoverable through charges for services provided by 
the Company.
