NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   The consolidated financial statements include Longs Drug Stores Corporation
     (Company) and Longs Drug Stores California, Inc., its wholly-owned
     subsidiary.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been
     eliminated.  The statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with
     the accounting policies described in the Annual Report of the Company
     previously filed with the Commission on Form 10-K for the year ended
     January 26, 1995, and reflect all adjustments and eliminations which are,
     in management's opinion, necessary for a fair statement of the results for
     the periods.  The financial statements for the periods ended April 27, 1995
     and April 28, 1994 are unaudited.  The Balance Sheet at January 26,1995,
     and Statement of Stockholders' Equity for the year then ended, presented
     herein, has been prepared from the audited financial statements of the
     Company.

2.   Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements
     in order to conform to current financial statement presentation.

3.   The financial statements have been prepared using the LIFO method of
     accounting for inventories.  The excess of specific cost inventory over
     LIFO valuation was $126,100,000 at April 27, 1995, $127,400,000 at April
     28, 1994, and $127,700,000 at January 26, 1995. A final valuation of
     inventory under the LIFO method can be made only after year-end based on
     ending inventory levels and inflation rates for the year.  Interim LIFO
     calculations are based on management's estimates of year-end inventory
     levels and inflation rates for the year.

4.   The Company repurchased 29,000 shares of its common stock from the Profit
     Sharing Plan during the quarter ended April 27, 1995, in accordance with a
     stock repurchase plan adopted by the Board of Directors in November 1994.
     The stock was repurchased at current market values totalling $940,000.

5.   In March 1989, the Company sold 696,864 shares of Longs' common stock to
     the Profit Sharing Plan for $25,000,000.  The Plan financed this purchase
     with a ten-year loan which is guaranteed by Longs Drug Stores California,
     Inc.  Consequently, a Guarantee of Profit Sharing Plan debt is shown on the
     accompanying balance sheets with a corresponding reduction of Stockholders'
     Equity.

     Loan payments are made in equal quarterly installments of $930,000, which
     includes interest at 8.4% per year.  The loan is being repaid from
     dividends on Longs' stock held by the Plan and Company contributions to the
     Plan.

     Members are allocated shares of Longs common stock equal in value to the
     cash dividends on their allocated shares used to repay the loan.  Dividends
     paid to the Plan, used in part to repay principal and interest on the
     loan, totaled $806,163 for the quarter ended April 27, 1995.

     Plan shares of the leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan were as follows
     as of April 27, 1995:

                      Allocated shares          425,409
                      Unallocated shares        271,455
                                               ---------

                      Total                     696,864
                                               ---------
                                               ---------

     The Company has no obligation to purchase outstanding shares held by the
     Plan.  However, the Company has periodically repurchased shares to provide
     the Plan with needed liquidity.

6.   In April 1995, the Board of Directors approved the Longs Drug Stores
     Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan of 1995.  The Plan provides eligible
     employees with the opportunity to defer a specified percentage of their
     cash compensation.  Resulting obligations will be payable on a date
     selected by the employee participant in accordance with the terms of the
     Plan.  The total Deferred Compensation Obligations under the Plan may not
     exceed $10,000,000.

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


Sales for the quarter ended April 27, 1995, grew 3% to $639,801,000 as compared
to $622,259,000 for the same period last year.  Net income for the quarter
increased 2% to $13,304,000, or $.65 per share, as compared to last year's
$13,021,000, or $.63 per share.

Gross margins remained constant at 26.5% of sales despite continuing competition
in the retail environment.  Operating, administrative, and occupancy expenses
also remained constant at 23.0% of sales reflecting our continued efforts to
control costs.  We have challenged ourselves to increase operating earnings
this fiscal year to $96 million as compared to $83 million a year ago.  While
it will be a stretch, it is our Company goal, and we will do everything
possible to achieve it.

The Company repurchased 29,000 shares of its common stock from the Profit
Sharing Plan during the quarter ended April 27, 1995, at a market value totaling
$940,000.  In addition, the Company purchased 295,000 shares in the open market
with a total cost of $9,949,000 in a continuing effort to increase shareholder
value.

Expenditures for property additions include six stores in Hawaii acquired from
PayLess Drug Stores, capital expenditures for other new stores, store remodels,
mini-labs, and information system equipment.

Expenditures for capital projects, dividends, and stock repurchases have been,
and are expected to continue to be, funded from operations and cash reserves.
To maintain desired working capital, the Company may periodically use short-term
lines of credit available from several banks.

Seven stores were opened during the quarter, including the six Hawaii stores
acquired from PayLess, resulting in a total of 324 stores in operation at April
27, 1995.  Six additional stores are currently under construction, and other
potential new stores are in various stages of planning.
