            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           (UNAUDITED)


Notes to the Financial Statements included in Purepac, Inc.'s (the "Company")
Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1994, contain information pertinent to
the accompanying financial statements.  There has been no material change in 
the information contained in such footnotes except as set forth below.  The 
Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 1995, the Consolidated Statements
of Operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994
and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended 
March 31, 1995 and 1994, have not been audited.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring entries) necessary for a fair presentation of such financial 
results have been included.

1. Consolidation

   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the 
   Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Purepac Pharmaceutical Co.
   ("Purepac").

2. Earnings Per Common Share

   Primary earnings per common share is calculated by (i) dividing 
   income before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for 
   income taxes less preferred dividends by the weighted average number 
   of common shares outstanding during the period and (ii) by dividing 
   the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes, 
   if any, by such average number of common shares.  Common stock 
   equivalents are excluded as the effect is either not material or
   anti-dilutive.  Earnings per share, assuming full dilution, is 
   also presented for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1994 
   and is based on the assumption that all contingently issuable shares 
   were outstanding from the beginning of the period to the extent 
   dilution results.  For the current three and nine month periods
   ended March 31, 1995 and prior three month period, fully diluted 
   earnings per share is not presented as the effect would be 
   anti-dilutive.

3. Inventory

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

4.  Capital Stock

   During the quarter ended March 31, 1995 the Company issued 56,250 
   shares of common stock to employees pursuant to the Company's 1991 
   Restricted Stock Incentive Plan.  The Company received no proceeds
   from this transaction.  As a result of the issuance of these shares,
   the Company will have an income tax deduction of $610,313 in the 
   fiscal year ending June 30, 1996.  The deduction will result in a
   reduction in the taxes payable of approximatley $232,000.  In the 
   same fiscal year, for financial reporting purposes, the tax benefit
   will be recorded as a reduction of the deferred tax asset to the 
   extent previously provided and the remainder of the benefit will
   be recorded as additional capital in excess of par value.  It will
   not be reflected in the reported earnings or the earnings per
   share calculations.

   A reconciliation of the change in total stockholders' equity 
   for the nine month period ended March 31, 1995 is as follows:

                          Par Value of

5. Accounting for Income Taxes

   The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.
   109 ("SFAS 109"), "Accounting for Income Taxes," effective July 1, 1993.
   The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 109 on the Company's financial 
   statements, for the nine months ended March 31, 1994, was to increase 
   income by $4,149,000 ($.34 per primary common share and $.24 per share
   on a fully diluted basis) with a corresponding increase in the deferred
   tax asset.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

   Deferred income tax assets, both current and non-current, reflect the 
   net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying 
   amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes
   and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating loss
   and tax credit carryforwards.

   Beginning with the adoption of SFAS 109 on July 1, 1993, the income 
   tax expense provision will not include the benefit of recognizing 
   available loss carryforwards to the extent they have already been
   recognized as a deferred tax asset.  Instead, there will be a 
   reduction in the deferred tax asset when such benefits are utilized
   to reduce taxes payable. 

The provision (benefit) for income tax expense was comprised of the following:

The Company has net operating losses and tax credits available as 
carryforwards to reduce future payments of federal income taxes.  State 
tax losses are also available as carryforwards.  At March 31, 1995, for 
federal tax purposes, the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards 
amounted to $13,048,000 and $707,000, respectively, and expire through 
2003.  The Company believes it will achieve sufficient taxable income
to realize the tax benefit of the net operating loss.  The utilization 
of the net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future tax payments 
is subject to limitation under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
  
Results Of Operations - Three and Nine Month Periods Ended March 31, 1995
Compared With The Three and Nine Month Periods Ended March 31, 1994

Net sales for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 1995 were
$14,473,000 and $46,827,000, respectively, compared with $16,314,000 and 
$53,700,000 for the corresponding 1994 periods.  The declines in both periods
reflect lower sales of certain mature products, including nifedipine, 
partially offset by increased volumes for several new products.  The 
nifedipine products accounted for 12% of net sales for both the current 
three and nine month periods compared with 11% and 13% respectively, 
for the corresponding prior periods.

Gross profits for the three and nine month periods were $3,608,000 
and $11,743,000, respectively, compared with $5,123,000 and $18,330,000 
for the corresponding 1994 periods.  Gross profits as a percent of net 
sales were 25% for both the current three and nine month periods compared
with 31% and 34% for the corresponding prior periods.  The gross profit 
declines are attributable to higher raw material costs and to lower
selling prices.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current three and nine
month periods of $2,549,000 and $7,314,000, respectively, increased over 
the corresponding prior period expenses of $2,481,000 and $6,839,000, 
respectively.  The expenses as a percent of net sales for the three and 
nine month periods were 18% and 16%, respectively, compared with 15% and 
13% for the corresponding 1994 periods.  The increases are due primarily
to higher personnel expenses.

Research and development expenses for the curren three and nine month 
periods were $1,864,000 and $5,109,000, respectively, compared with 
$1,329,000 and $4,074,000 for the corresponding prior periods.  The 
expenses as a percent of net sales for the current three and nine month 
periods were 13% and 11%, respectively, compared with 8% for both 
corresponding prior periods.  The increases in both periods reflect 
higher clinical expenses and additions of scientific personnel.

Loss before cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes
for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 1995 was ($514,000)
and ($444,000), respectively, compared with income of $1,062,000 and 
$4,727,000 for the corresponding 1994 periods.

                             Page 9 of 12
<PAGE>

Net loss for the current nine month period was ($440,000).  Net income 
for the corresponding 1994 nine month period of $8,876,000 included 
the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes of 
$4,149,000 as a result of the adoption of SFAS 109, effective
July 1, 1993.  Refer to Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial 
Statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company had $615,000 in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 1995
compared with $3,154,000 at June 30, 1994.  The decrease in the current
nine month period of $2,539,000 resulted primarily from cash used for 
investments in property, plant and equipment of $2,312,000 and the
preferred dividend payment of $1,560,000, partially offset by $333,000 
of cash provided by operating activities and $1,000,000 borrowed from 
a bank on October 3, 1994, under the Company's revolving credit and loan 
agreement.

In comparing the balance sheet amounts at March 31, 1995 to the June 30,
1994 balances, the following are noteworthy:

     Accounts receivable decreased by $1,250,000 due to the lower
     sales levels.

     Inventory decreased by $1,045,000 due in part to the
     discontinuance of certain products.

     Accounts payable decreased by $2,109,000 due in part to timing
     differences in the purchase of materials and the lower inventory 
     level.

The accrued preferred dividend, payable to the Company's principal 
stockholder, Faulding Holdings Inc., of $520,095 for the three month period
ended March 31, 1995 was subsequently paid on April 3, 1995.

The Company believes current cash resources, anticipated operating cash 
flows and funds available under a revolving credit and loan arrangement with 
a bank will be sufficient to fund its working capital needs for the foreseeable
future.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On December 20, 1994, an action was commenced against the Company and
two officers of the Company in the United States District Court for the 
District of New Jersey entitled Dechter vs. Purepac, Inc., Robert H. Bur 
and Russell J. Reardon, 94 Civ. 6195.  The plaintiff alleges, on behalf 
of all persons who purchased common stock during the period from 
August 12, 1994 through November 16, 1994 that, among other things, 
the Company and the named officers materially misled the financial 
community and artifically inflated the price of the Company's common 
stock in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act 
of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by failing 
to disclose until December 16, 1994 the Company's lack of compliance
with certain federal regulations for manufacturing generic drugs, as 
alledged in a warning letter from the Food and Drug Administration to 
the Company, dated November 23, 1994, and received by the Company on 
November 28, 1994.  A second stockholder action, containing substantially 
similar allegations, was commenced on January 5, 1995 in the United States
District Court for the District of New Jersey.

The two actions have been consolidated.  Defendants have made a motion
to dismiss and are awaiting a reponse by plaintiffs.
