                    O'Sullivan Corporation and Subsidiaries
                    Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                 Financial Condition and Results of Operations

O'Sullivan Corporation's consolidated financial statements represent the
combination of two principal manufacturing business segments.  The primary
segment of the Company is the plastics products business segment.  This segment
manufactures calendered and molded plastics products for the automotive and
specialty plastics manufacturing industries.  On April 1, 1993, the Company
acquired Capitol Plastics of Ohio, Inc.  Capitol Plastics is a custom injection
molding manufacturing operation with one plant located in Bowling Green, Ohio.
Capitol Plastics of Ohio, Inc., which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
O'Sullivan Corporation, is part of the plastics products business segment of
the Company.  On November 24, 1992, O'Sullivan Corporation acquired
substantially all of the assets of Melnor Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned
subsidiary Melnor Manufacturing, LTD.  With this acquisition, O'Sullivan
Corporation entered the consumer products manufacturing, marketing and
distribution business, which represents its second business segment.  The new
Company, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of O'Sullivan Corporation, is now
called Melnor Inc., and has as its wholly-owned subsidiary Melnor Canada, LTD.
The principal source of income for the Company is from sales of those products
produced by each business segment to manufacturers, distributors and retail
outlets.

On October 3, 1994, the Company announced that it had signed a letter of intent
dated September 30, 1994, with Automotive Industries, Inc. concerning the sale
of the Company's Gulfstream Division.  The assets of the Gulfstream Division
being sold consists primarily of property, plant and equipment, inventories and
the capital stock of Capitol Plastics of Ohio, Inc. which are all part of the
Company's plastics products business segment.  The consolidated financial
statements of the Company have been adjusted and comparable periods restated to
reflect the sale of the Gulfstream Division's assets, as of September 30, 1994.
The results of discontinued operations are discussed and disclosed in footnote
(B.).

Consolidated sales revenue on continuing operations increased to $44.7 and
$149.1 million during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1994,
compared to $39.2 and $133.1 million for the same periods last year, up 14.1%
and 12.1%, respectively.  Sales revenues for the primary plastics products
segment of the Company increased to $37.0 and $111.9 million for the quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 1994, compared to $33.0 and $100.0 million
for the same periods last year, up 12.0% and 11.9%, respectively.  Although
sales increases for the quarter and nine months were experienced in virtually
all product lines, the majority of sales increase experienced by the plastics
products segment was for products produced for distribution to the automotive
industry.  The consumer products segment of the Company contributed $7.7 and
$37.2 million in sales revenues for the quarter and nine months ended September
30, 1994, compared to $6.1 and $33.0 million for the same periods last year, up
25.2% and 12.7%, respectively.  Consumer products sales increases experienced
during the quarter ended September 30, 1994, were the direct results of
increased sales and market penetration of counter-cyclical product lines,
primarily snow shovels, as opposed to the regular lawn and garden watering
products, produced and distributed by Melnor Canada, LTD., Melnor Inc.'s
wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary.

Consolidated net income on continuing operations for the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1994, was $2.4 and $9.1 million compared to $2.6 and
$7.8 million for the same periods last year, down and up 8.8% and 16.0%,
respectively.  The primary reason for the decline in net income for the quarter
ended September 30, 1994, compared to last year was the decline in gross profit
experienced by the plastics products business segment of the Company.  Gross
profit on operations was $6.6 and $21.4 million for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1994, compared to $7.5 and $20.2 million for the same
periods last year, down 12.1% and up 5.7%, respectively. The plastics products
business segment's cost of products sold increased 16.6%, on sales increases of
12.0%, resulting in reduced gross profit on operations of $1.8 million, when
compared to the same period last year.  Costs of products sold for the segment
represented 82.2% of sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1994, compared
to 77.3% for the same period last year.  The plastics products business segment
was negatively affected by raw material costs and mixed compound costs
increasing substantially faster than the Company's ability to pass price
increases through to it's customer base, and the start-up of new and improved
flexible vinyl compounds, all of which contributed to the increase in costs of
products sold.  Management considers these problems to be short-term in nature
and that they will be corrected in the near future.  Gross profit from
operations for the consumer products segment of the Company showed significant
improvement for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1994, with
gross profit of $1.9 and $8.3 million compared to $701 thousand and $6.3
million for the same periods last year, up 181.1% and 32.7%, respectively.  The
primary reasons for the improvement in gross profit margins for the quarter
ended September 30, 1994, were the increase in counter-cyclical sales volume
and their associated added contribution margins for Melnor Canada, LTD.,
compared to the same period last year.  Also, significant reductions in labor
related overhead in cost of products sold have contributed to increased gross
profit margins.

Consolidated operating expenses on continuing operations for the quarter and
nine months ended September 30, 1994, were $4.2 and $14.1 million compared to
$3.4 and $13.1 million for the same periods last year, up 23.6% and 7.6%,
respectively.  Selling and warehousing expenses were $2.7 and $8.9 million for
the quarter and nine months ended September 30,1994, compared to $2.1 and $8.4
million for the same periods last year, up 26.8% and 6.3%, respectively.
Selling and warehousing expenses represented 6.0% of each sales dollar for both
the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1994, compared to 5.4% and 6.3%
for the same periods last year, for the combined primary plastics products and
the consumer products business segments of the Company.  General and
administrative expenses for the quarter and nine months ended September 30,
1994, were $1.6 and $5.2 million compared to $1.3 and $4.7 million for the same
periods last year, up 18.5% and 9.8%, respectively.  General and administrative
expenses represented 3.5% of each sales dollar for both the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1994, compared to 3.4% and 3.6% for the quarters and
nine months ended September 30, 1993.

Non-operating expenses decreased $194 thousand and $395 thousand during the
quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1994, compared to the same periods
last year, primarily due to lower amounts of external debt necessary to finance
the Companies associated with the consumer products business segment.

Total consolidated debt decreased $14.2 and $10.6 million compared to June 30,
1994, and December 31, 1993, respectively.  As of September 30, 1994, the
consumer products segment, Melnor Inc., had external short and long-term debt
obligations of $5.5 million, representing 13.3% of the total debt of the
Company.  During the first quarter of 1994, the company successfully completed
negotiations with a financial institution for the debt restructuring of Melnor
Inc.  The new debt structure consists of a revolving credit facility
substantially the same as before with standard negative operating covenants.
This debt is secured by the assets of Melnor Inc. and does not represent any
liability to the parent company.  During the month of June, 1994, the Company
renegotiated its $25.0 million unsecured line of credit with its principal
bank, First Union National Bank of Virginia.  The new unsecured line of credit
is now $35.0 million and has a maturity date of June 30, 1997.  The purpose of
increasing this line of credit was to insure adequate capital for corporate
liquidity, finance growth of trading assets, and to finance capital
expenditures and/or acquisitions.  With the current debt structure and lines of
credit that are available, the Company believes that working capital
requirements for the short and long-term are adequately provided for.

Currently, with prevailing bond market interest rates, the Company expects that
the holders of the Company's $25.0 million in long-term Senior Notes, in
accordance with the note agreement, will require payment in full upon
completion of the sale of the Gulfstream Division to Automotive Industries,
Inc.  Although the Company is in compliance with all of the note agreement
negative covenants as of September 30, 1994, the prepayment option is available
to the note holders because of the nature of the announced sale.  It is
therefore expected that part of the cash proceeds from the sale of the
Gulfstream Division will be used to retire the $25.0 million in long-term
senior notes.

The Company's financial position and liquidity continue to remain strong at
September 30, 1994, with shareholder's equity at 54.6% of total assets.
Current assets compared to current liabilities were 3.0 to 1.0.  Total debt to
equity of the Company was 38.7% and net worth, although down $2.8 million from
December 31, 1993, due to the loss recorded on the sale of discontinued
operations, was still at $106.0 million.
