                             (Unaudited)

1.  CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    The condensed balance sheet as of  February 23, 1996, the statements of 
income for the first quarter ended February 23, 1996 and February 24, 1995, 
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 February 23, 1996 and for the other periods 
presented.  The results of operations for the period ended February 23, 1996 
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 three months ended February 23, 1996, shareholders' equity 
changed due to the net income of $224,000, dividends declared of $74,000 and a 
decrease of $43,000 resulting from a decrease in the 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 February 23, 1996, Penobscot Shoe Company had working capital of 
approximately $10,297,000 versus approximately $10,172,000 at November 
24, 1995, an increase of $125,000.  The ratio of current assets to current 
liabilities at February 23, 1996, was 8.5 to 1, compared to 8.9 to 1, at 
November 24, 1995.

     The statement of cash flows for the three months ended February 23, 1996, 
shows a decrease of $339,000 in cash and cash equivalents since November 
24, 1995.  The Company's operations used $255,000 since November 24, 
1995, primarily due to seasonal fluctuations in inventory.  The Company's 
quarterly dividend amounted to a use of $74,000 during the period and 
capital expenditures for equipment amounted to a further use of $10,000 
during the period.

     The increases in the Company's inventory, accounts receivable, other
current assets and other current liabilities since November 24, 1995, 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 first quarter ended February 23, 1996, were $4,225,000, 
up 35% from $3,120,000 in the same quarter last year.  Net income for the 
current quarter was $224,000, or $.15 per share, compared to $14,000, or
$.01 per share, a year ago.  The current quarter's net income benefited 
from gains on the sales of securities which contributed $48,000, or $.03 per 
share.  The first quarter last year had no such gains.

     The increase in net sales in the first quarter resulted from the 
combination of a strong winter boot season and earlier shipments of some
spring merchandise.  While the retail environment has recently shown some 
improvement, the first quarter sales and profit increases should not 
necessarily be considered indicative of future results.

      Selling and administrative expenses were approximately 6% higher 
than a year ago.  This increase was the result of costs which are variable
on sales volume.

      Other income in the first quarter of 1996 was $138,000, pre-tax,
compared to $53,000 in the same quarter last year.  The current quarter
benefited from gains on the sales of securities which totalled $80,000, 
pre-tax, while the first quarter of last year included no such gains.
