                             (Unaudited)

1.  CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    The condensed balance sheet as of August 25, 1995, the statements of income 
for the third quarter and nine-month periods ended August 25, 1995 and August 
26, 1994, and the condensed statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods 
then ended have been prepared by the Company, without audit.  In the opinion 
of management, all necessary adjustments, which include normal recurring 
adjustments, have been made to present fairly the financial position, results 
of operations, and cash flows at August 25, 1995 and for the other periods 
presented.  The results of operations for the period ended August 25, 1995 are 
not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.

2.  INVENTORIES

    Inventories are summarized as follows (in thousands):

                             =======    =======    =======
</TABLE>   

    The Company uses the LIFO method because it more realistically
reflects operating results by charging current costs against current
revenues. 

3.  SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

    During the nine months ended August 25, 1995, shareholders' equity changed 
due to the net income of $120,000, dividends declared of $222,000 and an 
increase of $316,000 resulting from the inclusion of a net unrealized gain on 
available-for-sale securities held by the Company.  Effective November 26, 
1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities",
necessitating the inclusion of this net unrealized gain on the balance sheet.
<PAGE>
                        PENOBSCOT SHOE COMPANY
     MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

     At August 25, 1995, Penobscot Shoe Company had working capital of 
approximately $10,078,000 versus approximately $9,568,000 at November 25, 1994,
an increase of $510,000.  The ratio of current assets to current liabilities at
August 25, 1995, was 9.5 to 1, compared to 10.6 to 1, at November 25, 1994.

     The statement of cash flows for the nine months ended August 25, 1995, 
shows a decrease of $546,000 in cash and cash equivalents since November 
25, 1994.  The Company's operations used $311,000 since November 25, 
1994, primarily due to seasonal fluctuations in inventory.  The Company's 
quarterly dividend amounted to a use of $222,000 during the period and 
capital expenditures for equipment amounted to a further use of $12,000 
during the period.

     The increases in the Company's inventory, other current assets and
accounts payable, as well as the decrease in accounts receivable since 
November 25, 1994, were the result of ordinary fluctuations.

     Management believes that Penobscot Shoe Company remains financially well 
structured to consider a variety of financing options should the need arise and
will make choices depending on economic conditions at the time.  Options 
available include conversion of marketable securities held by the Company into
cash and cash equivalents.  The Company also has an established line of credit
with a major bank available for direct borrowing at the prime rate should the 
need arise.

Results of Operations:

     Net sales for the third quarter ended August 25, 1995 were $3,872,000, 
down 5% from $4,090,000 in the same quarter last year.  Net income for the 
current quarter was $133,000, or $.09 per share, up from $115,000, or $.08 
per share, a year ago.

     For the nine months year-to-date net sales were $9,447,000, down 12% 
from $10,745,000 in 1994.  Net income for the current year-to-date period was
$120,000, or $.08 per share, compared to $207,000, or $.14 per share, last 
year. 

     Last year's third quarter earnings were significantly reduced by provision
for a non-recurring after-tax charge of $170,000 related to the settlement of
litigation.  Earnings for the 1994 quarter were $.19 per share before this non-
recurring event, compared to the current quarter's reported earnings of $.09 
per share.

                        PENOBSCOT SHOE COMPANY
     MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS
     

Results of Operations: (continued)

     The 5% drop in net sales in the third quarter compared to last year was 
due to fewer pairs of footwear shipped in the quarter.  This volume reduction
was reflective of the continuing weakness in the retail environment.     

     Cost of sales was 67% of net sales in the third quarter compared to 63% a
year ago resulting in gross profit margins of 33% and 37% in the 1995 and 1994
quarters, respectively.  The lower gross margin was a result of timing and 
largely offset the comparatively higher margins reported in the second 
quarter.  The increase in overhead expenses versus a year ago reflects 
increased investment in selling and marketing efforts.

     Other income (expense) in the third quarter of 1995 was $65,000, pre-tax, 
compared to ($261,000), pre-tax, a year ago.  Last year's expense was due the
non-recurring charge mentioned earlier in this analysis. 

     As reported last quarter, the weakness in the retail marketplace will 
continue to stress the Company's margins for the balance of fiscal 1995 
compared to last year.
