              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and reflect, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations and cash flows at October 31, 1997,
and for all periods presented.  The condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements
and notes contained in Arbor's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended July 31, 1997.  The results of operations for any interim period should
not necessarily be considered indicative of the results of operations for the
full year.


2. INVENTORY VALUATION

        Inventory at interim periods is valued on a last-in, first-out (LIFO)
basis which is determined based upon estimates of gross profit rates, inflation
rates and inventory levels, and is adjusted for the results of physical
inventories when taken.


3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings
per Share," was issued in February 1997 and is effective for interim and annual
periods beginning after December 15, 1997. Earlier adoption is not permitted.
Using SFAS No. 128, "earnings per share" would have been $.20 and $.17, for the
quarters ending October 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and "earnings per
share-assuming dilution" would have been $.19 and $.16 for the quarters ending
October 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        References to years are to the Company's fiscal years, which end July
31.

NET SALES

        Net sales reached $254.2 million for the three months ended October 31,
1997, an increase of 13.0 percent over the three months ended October 31, 1996.
The increase reflects an increase in comparable store sales (stores open for one
year or more) of 7.1 percent and sales made by stores opened in the last 12
months.  As of October 31, 1997, the Company operated 202 stores, compared to
188 stores as of October 31, 1996, and 199 stores as of July 31, 1997.

        Prescription drug sales were $140.8 million for the three months ended
October 31, 1997,  an increase of 17.5 percent over the three months ended
October 31, 1996, accounting for  55.4 percent of total sales for the three
months ended October 31, 1997,  compared to 53.3 percent for the three months
ended October 31, 1996. The increases, in both absolute amount and relative
contribution, were primarily attributable to the larger store base, a greater
number of prescriptions filled on a comparable-store basis and an increase in
the average prescription price.  The latter reflected price increases for
certain existing brand name drugs and the introduction of new brand name drugs,
offset in part by the lower prices of generic drugs, which are marketed as the
corresponding brand name drugs lose patent protection.


COST OF SALES

        Cost of sales represented 74.5 percent of net sales for the three months
ended October 31, 1997, compared to 74.4 percent for the three months ended
October 31, 1996.  Generally, the increases reflect rising pharmaceutical
product costs and gross margin percentage pressure due to the reimbursement
practices of the Company's third-party providers. Third-party providers
generally pay the Company an amount determined by formula to reimburse it for
the cost of the prescription drugs dispensed plus a fixed dispensing fee to
compensate it for the services rendered. As pharmaceutical costs increase, the
gross margin percentage on such sales decreases because the dispensing fee
remains the same pursuant to the applicable third-party program.  Changes in the
reimbursement formulas of the various third-party providers with which the
Company has contracts may also affect the Company's gross margin and operating
income.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

        Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses, as a percentage
of net sales, amounted to 21.0 percent for the three months ended October 31,
1997, compared to 21.3 percent for the three months ended October 31, 1996. The
decrease was primarily attributable to the Company's efforts to control expenses
and by the higher level of net sales.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAX

        The provision for income tax as a percentage of income before income tax
was 33.6 percent for the three months ended October 31, 1997, compared to 34.5
percent for the three months ended October 31, 1996.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        For the three months ended October 31, 1997, net cash was provided by
operations ($.9 million) and through the exercise of stock options and employee
stock purchase plan purchases ($1.6 million). Cash was principally used for
capital expenditures and acquisitions ($11.2 million), purchase of short-term
investments ($6.1 million) and cash dividends ($2.4 million). In the aggregate,
the Company's net cash decreased by $17.0 million.

        The Company anticipates fiscal 1998 capital expenditures to  total
approximately $30 million. The funds will be used to open new stores, remodel
existing stores and invest in retailing systems.

        The Company's current expansion plan contemplates adding approximately
20 new Arbor drugstores in fiscal 1998 through the leasing and development of
new sites and, if suitable opportunities arise, acquisitions.  As of October 31,
1997, 4 new stores have been opened and one store was consolidated during the
current fiscal year.

        The Company believes that existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments, cash provided from future operations and funds available under a
$50 million line of credit will support anticipated expansion and working
capital needs arising in the ordinary course of business during fiscal 1998. As
of October 31, 1997, the Company had no outstanding borrowings against its line 
of credit.
