                                  (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, 1996 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.

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                              Dollars in Thousands


Three months ended December 31, 1996 vs. Three months ended December 31,1995
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sales for the three months ended December 31, 1996 increased by $5,942
or 14.2% to $47,656 from $41,714 for the three months ended December 31, 1995.
Revenues generated from our hotel customers increased $2,616 or 7.7% to 
$36,812.  This increase is primarily due to selling additional products to 
existing customers and the addition of new customers.    

Sales to consumer product companies and retailers were $10,844 for the
three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to $7,518 for the three
months ended December 31, 1995.  The increase of $3,326 or 44.2% was
due to increased sales to an existing customer.

Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 1996 was $11,071
or 23.2% of sales compared to $9,495 or 22.8% of sales for the three
months ended December 31, 1995.  The increase in gross profit as a
percentage of sales was due primarily to increased sales to consumer
product companies as well as improved efficiencies at the Company's
manufacturing facility.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8,498 or 17.8% of
sales for the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to $7,525
or 18.0% of sales for the three months ended December 31, 1995.  The
increase of $973 or 12.9% was due primarily to increased payroll and
payroll related costs, warehousing and delivery costs associated with the
Company's sales growth, as well as moving expenses incurred from relocation
of the corporate office and warehouse facilities in the first quarter.  

Interest expense was $526 for the three months ended December 31, 1996
compared to $420 for the three months ended December 31, 1995.  The
increase in interest of $106 can be attributed to an increase in
borrowings to fund our capital expansion program.  Interest costs incurred
on borrowings during the construction and installation period were
capitalized to the cost of the project.

Income tax expense was $828 for the three months ended December 31,
1996 compared with $607 for the prior period.  This increase was
primarily the result of an increase in pre-tax income of $497 as
compared to prior year for the three months ended December 31, 1996.  The
income tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 1996 and December
31, 1995 was 40.4% and 39.2% respectively.  This increase is the result of
a reduction in the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards
available for the three months ended December 31, 1996.

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


Liquidity and Capital Resources at December 31, 1996
- ----------------------------------------------------
At December 31, 1996, the Company had $36,764 of working capital compared
to $35,223 at September 30, 1996.  The increase of $1,541 is primarily the
result of an increase in purchases of inventory and reductions in 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 term loan and a two-year $22,000
revolving credit facility.  The term loan is payable in equal monthly
installments of $125 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 which remained outstanding.  The loans,
which are payable in equal monthly installments, mature in February, 1999.

In February, 1997, the Company amended its revolving credit facility with
the banks to allow for additional availability of $3,500 through July 31,
1997 and to modify a financial covenant.

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.

Cautionary Statement
- --------------------
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking information
about the Company.  The Company is hereby setting forth statements
identifying important factors that may cause the Company's actual results
to differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statements
made by the Company.  Some of the most significant factors include an
unanticipated down-turn in the lodging industry resulting in lower demand
for the Company's products, the unanticipated loss of, or decline in sales
to, a major customer and unforeseen inefficiencies at the Company's
manufacturing facility or arising out of the transition to the Company's
new warehouse facility. Accordingly, there can be no assurances that any
anticipated future results will be achieved.
