          Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                               


1.      Accounting Policies

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (which are comprised of only
normal recurring accruals and the use of estimates) necessary to present
fairly the consolidated financial position of Owens & Minor, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of March 31, 1994 and the results of operations and cash
flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 1994 and 1993.


2.      Interim Results of Operations 

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the full year.


3.      Interim Gross Margin Reporting 

In general, the Company uses estimated gross profit rates to determine the
cost of sales during interim periods.  To improve the accuracy of its
estimated gross margins for interim reporting purposes, the Company takes
physical inventories at selected distribution centers and reported earnings
for the quarter reflect the results of such inventories, if materially
different.  Management will continue a program of interim physical
inventories at selected distribution centers to the extent it deems
appropriate to ensure the accuracy of interim reporting and to minimize
year-end adjustments.


4.      Business Combination

On December 22, 1993, the Company entered into an agreement with Stuart
Medical, Inc. (Stuart), whereby the companies will combine their two
businesses.  In the proposed transaction, the Company will form a holding
company that will own all of the currently outstanding capital stock of the
Company and Stuart.  Further details of the transaction were included in the
Company's 1993 Annual Report and Proxy Statement/Prospectus dated April 6,
1994.  The Company's shareholders will vote on the proposed transaction at
the annual shareholders meeting with expected closing of the transaction to
occur in the second quarter.  Had this acquisition been completed on January
1, 1993, the Company would have shown the following results for the three
months ended March 31, 1994 and 1993:

per share data)

                        March 31, 1994             March 31, 1993

Net income per common
share before
cumulative effect of
accounting change       $      0.24              $        0.17







The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what actually would
have occurred if the combination had been in effect for the periods
presented.  In addition, they are not intended to be a projection of future
results.

First Quarter of 1994 Compared to 1993 


Net Sales

Net sales increased 23.0% (21.3% same store sales) to $390.8
million in 1994 from $317.8 million in 1993.  The sales increase is
due primarily to market share improvement, account penetration and
product line expansion.

Gross Margin

Gross margin as a percentage of net sales declined to 10.0% in 1994
from 10.6% in 1993.  The decline is due to increased volume from
large national customers which have lower than average margins.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
sales decreased from 7.8% in 1993 to 7.3% in 1994.  This decrease
reflects the benefits derived from the Company's emphasis on
training and technology development, allowing the Company to handle
increased sales volume without corresponding increases in
administrative expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization has increased from $1.7 million in
1993 to $2.3 million in 1994.  The increase is due to continued
investment in new and improved technology and the costs of opening
new distribution centers.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net of interest income, increased from $.6
million in 1993 to $.8 million in 1994.  The increase is due to
increased borrowings to finance two acquisitions during the second
quarter of 1993, the opening of four new distribution centers
during the last three quarters of 1993 and increased inventory from
product line expansion.



Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate decreased as a percentage of income before
income taxes from 40.1% in 1993 to 38.1% in 1994.  The rate
decrease is due to the favorable resolution of several tax issues
during the first quarter of 1994. 


Net Income

Net income increased by 24.3% from $3.8 million, before the
cumulative effect of an accounting change (SFAS 109), in 1993 to
$4.8 million in 1994.  Net income per share before the cumulative
effect of an accounting change (SFAS 109) increased by 21.1% from
$.19 per share in 1993 to $.23 per share in 1994.  The increases in
net income and net income per share resulted primarily from
increased sales.


Financial Condition

The Company's average receivable days outstanding improved from
34.2 at December 31, 1993 to 32.9 at March 31, 1994.  The
improvement is due to continued emphasis on accounts receivable
controls.  Average inventory turnover decreased from 11.5 turns at
December 31, 1993 to 10.2 turns at March 31, 1994.  The change is
due to an expanded product line, an increase in custom products and
cost effective buying opportunities.  The inventory purchases were
financed through the Company's long-term revolving credit facility,
resulting in an increase in the Company's current ratio from 2.0 at
December 31, 1993 to 2.1 at March 31, 1994 and an increase in the
Company's capitalization ratio from 27.1% at December 31, 1993 to
30.4% at March 31, 1994.
