            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                (Unaudited)


Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared from the books and records of Guest Supply, Inc. and subsidiaries
(the Company) in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  It is suggested that the consolidated condensed financial
statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 1995 included
in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K.  Interim results are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full
year.

Note 2:  Earnings Per Common Share

Earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of common
and common equivalent shares outstanding during each period.  When stock
options and warrants are dilutive, they are included as share equivalents
using the treasury stock method.  Where the effect of the assumed exercise
on net income would be anti-dilutive, primary and fully diluted earnings
per common share are stated the same. 

On September 18, 1995, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a
three-for-two stock split to be paid in the form of a 50% stock dividend. 
The additional 2,048,739 shares of common stock were issued on October 24,
1995 to the shareholders of record on October 3, 1995.  Distribution of
fractional shares was paid in cash based on the closing price on the record
date.  The par value of the new shares issued totaled $205,000 which was
transferred from additional paid-in-capital to common stock.  

Note 3:  Revolving Credit Facility

On October 31, 1995, the Company entered into a credit facility with two
banks for a seven-year $10,500,000 term loan and a two-year $22,000,000
revolving credit facility.  The term loan is payable in equal monthly
installments of $125,000 which will commence in December, 1995 and bears
interest at a rate equal to 7.0% per annum.  The revolving credit loans
under the credit facility bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.0%
the bank's prime rate or a fixed rate, as selected by the Company.  The
proceeds under this credit facility were used to repay the outstanding
balance under the existing revolving credit facility and for future working
capital needs.  At the time of this agreement, the Company had existing
term loans totaling $7,500,000 which remained outstanding.  These loans,
which are payable in equal monthly installments, mature in February, 1999.

All of the Company's loans with the banks are secured by substantially all
of its assets and are subject to certain financial covenants.

             ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
              FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Three months ended December 31, 1995 vs. Three months ended December 31, 1994
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sales for the three months ended December 31, 1995 increased by $8,951,000
or 27.3% to $41,714,000 from $32,763,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 1994.  Revenues generated from our hotel customers increased
$6,327,000 or 22.7% to $34,196,000.  This increase is due to selling
additional products to existing customers, the addition of new customers
and the introduction of new items to the Company's product line.

Sales to consumer product companies and retailers were $7,518,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 1995 compared to $4,894,000 for the three
months ended December 31, 1994.  The increase of $2,624,000 or 53.6% was
due to increased sales to existing customers.

Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 1995 was $9,495,000 or
22.8% of sales compared to $7,840,000 or 23.9% of sales for the three
months ended December 31, 1994.

The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales was due primarily to
inefficiencies experienced at the Company's manufacturing facility which
were a  result of delays in completing the Company's plant expansion
project and subsequent material flow problems.  Although the plant
expansion is now essentially complete, the improvements that are being made
in the material storage and planning systems will not be fully implemented
until the latter part of the second quarter of fiscal 1996.  The addition
of textiles to the Company's product line also contributed to the decrease
as a result of a lower gross profit associated with these products when
compared with the Company's other products.  In 1995, the cost of pulp,
cotton, tallow and plastic resins increased.  This resulted in the Company
experiencing cost increases in cartons, bottles, textiles, paper and soap
base.  While most of these cost increases were passed through to the
Company's customers, these cost increases had a slight impact on the
financial results of the Company.

Interest expense was $420,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1995
compared to $229,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1994.  The
increase in interest of $191,000 or  83.4% can be attributed to an increase
in borrowings for the funding of the Company's capital expansion program.  

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $7,525,000 or 18.0% of
sales for the three months ended December 31, 1995 compared to $6,423,000
or 19.6% of sales for the three months ended December 31, 1994.  The
increase of $1,102,000 or 17.2% was due primarily to increased payroll and
payroll related costs, warehousing and delivery costs.  The decrease in
selling, general and administrative costs as a percentage of sales was the
result of increased sales volume combined with the effects of the Company's
cost containment program.

The effective income tax rate increased to 39.2% for the three months ended
December 31, 1995 compared with 32.5% for the three months ended December
31, 1994.  This increase is the result of a reduction in the utilization of
net operating loss carryforwards available for the three months ended
December 31, 1995.<PAGE>

               ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Liquidity and Capital Resources at December 31, 1995
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

At December 31, 1995, the Company had $33,786,000 of working capital
compared to $27,475,000 at September 30, 1995.  This increase is primarily
the result of an increase in long-term borrowings which was necessary to
reduce trade payables to agreed upon payment terms.

On October 31, 1995, the Company entered into a credit facility with two
banks for a seven-year $10,500,000 term loan and a two-year $22,000,000
revolving credit facility.  The term loan is payable in equal monthly
installments of $125,000 which commenced in December, 1995 and bears
interest at a rate equal to 7.0% per annum.  The revolving credit loans
under the credit facility bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.0%
the bank's prime rate or a fixed rate, as selected by the Company.  The
proceeds under this credit facility were used to repay the outstanding
balance under the existing revolving credit facility and for future working
capital needs.  At the time of this agreement, the Company had existing
term loans totaling $7,500,000 which remained outstanding.  The loans,
which are payable in equal monthly installments, mature in February, 1999.

All of the Company's loans with the banks are secured by substantially all
of its assets and are subject to certain financial covenants.

The Company believes that the amount available under its revolving credit
facility together with the cash flow from operations will be sufficient to
meet the Company's short-term working capital requirements and identifiable
long-term capital needs.  The Company also believes that, if necessary,
additional financing will be available to it on commercially reasonable
terms.

During 1995, the cost of pulp, cotton, tallow and plastic resins increased. 
This resulted in the Company experiencing cost increases in cartons,
bottles, textiles, paper and soap base.  While most of these cost increases
were passed through to the Company's customers, these cost increases had a
slight impact on the financial results of the Company.<PAGE>
