4.   Leases and Other Commitments
     ----------------------------

     The Company leases office space and certain office equipment under
     operating leases.  Minimum rental payments in each of the next five fiscal
     years required under leases which have initial or remaining lease terms in
     excess of one year are as follows:
 
          December 31,
          
                       1995          $2,810
                       1996           2,146
                       1997           1,556
                       1998           1,301
                       1999           1,069

     The total of the above minimum lease payments has not been reduced by
     $1,572 which the Company expects to receive in the future under non-
     cancelable subleases.

     In accordance with several product acquisitions and licensing agreements
     and subject to certain cancellation rights reserved by the Company, Roberts
     may be required to purchase inventory or make minimum payments totalling
     $51,933 through 2001 and make royalty payments totalling $2,000 through
     1998.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
          Conditions and Results of Operations

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 1995 and 1994


Corporate Revenues
- ------------------

Total revenue for the First Quarter 1995 decreased $5.5 million as compared with
the First Quarter of 1994.   This decrease was the result of $2 million decline
in product revenue and a $3.5 million decline in contract research revenue.  The
Company believes that the decline in revenue in the First Quarter of 1995 is 
attributed to several factors, including (1) a decline in demand for its 
existing pharmaceutical products; (2) the negative impact that the mild 1994 
winter weather had on the Company's over-the-counter and prescription cold 
remedies (3) the diversion of the Company's sales force from the promotion of 
existing products to allow for sales training related to new product 
acquisitions; and (4) a reduction in revenues derived from contract research.

Product Sales
- -------------

For the three months ended March 31, 1995, product sales decreased $2 million
from  $20.4 million to $18.4 million primarily as a result of a decline in
demand for its existing products in the U.S. The U.S. product sales decrease was
partially offset by the sales results of NOROXIN in the month of March.  After
including sales of NOROXIN, sales in the U.S. decreased from $15.6 million to
$13.1 million.  Sales of the Company's Canadian subsidiary decreased from $2.7
million to $2.4 million.  Sales of the Company's United Kingdom subsidiary,
Monmouth Pharmaceuticals, Ltd., increased $.8 million to $2.9 million, primarily
as a result of 1994 product acquisitions.

Contract Research
- -----------------

For the three months ended March 31, 1995, revenue from contract research
decreased $3.5 million to $1.9 million as Phase III clinical research studies
for a major shareholder neared completion. With the completion of these studies,
the Company expects contract research revenue to decline substantially in 1995 
from revenue levels achieved in 1994.

Cost of Sales
- -------------

For the three months ended March 31, 1995, cost of sales amounted to 35.9% of
product sales, a 10.9 percentage point increase as compared to the prior year's
comparable period.  This increase in cost of sales and corresponding decrease in
gross profit percentage is primarily the result of the addition of NOROXIN in
the current period. With the continued distribution of NOROXIN, the Company
expects cost of sales and gross profit, as percentages of product sales, to be
similarly impacted for the foreseeable future.

Cost of Contract Research
- -------------------------

Cost of contract research decreased to $1.2 million from $3.4 million incurred
in the prior year's comparable period as a result of decreased contract research
activity.

Research and Development
- ------------------------

Research and Development expenses decreased $.2 million to $2 million during the
three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the comparable prior year
period. This decrease is due to a reduced level of expenditure in support of the
Company's development program for AGRELIN.

Marketing and Administrative Expenses
- -------------------------------------

For the three months ended March 31, 1995, Marketing and Administrative expenses
increased $1.8 million from $10.4 million to $12.2 million.  Marketing expenses
increased $.6 million as a result of promotional activities for new products and
the expansion of sales forces in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada.
Administrative expenses increased $1.2 million primarily as a result of the
Company's 1994 acquisition of Global Nutritional Care, Inc., a non-recurring
charge of $.3 million associated with the relocation of the Company's clinical
research division, and $.2 million increase in amortization of intangibles
related to product and company acquisitions.

Interest Income and Expense
- ---------------------------

Interest income decreased from $.7 million to $.5 million as a result of a
decrease in invested marketable securities.  Interest expense decreased $.3
million from $1 million primarily as result of a decrease in long term debt as
compared to the prior year's comparable period.

Income Taxes
- ------------

For the quarter ended March 31, 1995, the income tax benefit represents a normal
statutory rate.  For the quarter ended March 31, 1994, the rate was lower than
the normal statutory rate due to the recognition of tax benefits associated with
operating losses and credits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

For the three months ended March 31, 1995, cash flows from operating activities
amounted to $6 million.  This resulted from a $12 million decrease in accounts
receivables and $2.7 million of non cash charges offset by the Company's net
loss and $7.6 million of increased working capital requirements, primarily an
increase in finished goods inventory of $4.9 million.  Cash flows from operat-
ing activities in the comparable 1994 period amounted to $.4 million, resulting
primarily from net income and non cash charges offset by working capital
requirements due to increased sales levels.  As of March 31, 1995, the Company
had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $35.1 million.  This
balance results primarily from the public offering of Common Stock completed in
October, 1993.

The Company will use its existing cash and securities balances and cash
generated from operations to fund its operating activities and its near term and
long-term debt obligations from previous product acquisitions.  Based upon its
present plans, the Company believes that it may require additional funding in
fiscal 1995.  If additional funds are required, the Company believes that it has
various alternative funding sources including bank debt, private debt financing,
equity financing and the sale or licensing of product rights.  Cash equivalents
and marketable securities currently consist of immediately available money
market fund balances and investment grade securities.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations
- -----------------------------

Roberts has subsidiary operations outside of the United States.  As a result,
Roberts is subject to fluctuations in reported revenues and costs reported in
United States dollars as a consequence of changing currency exchange rates,
especially rates for the British pound and Canadian dollar.

                      preliminary review of Roberts' sales activity for the
                      first two months of 1995 indicates that sales and profit
                      for the First Quarter of 1995 will be below Fourth Quarter
                      1994 results.

04/10/95              On April 10, 1995, a shareholders' class action suit was
                      instituted against Roberts Pharmaceutical Corporation and
                      certain of its officers alleging violations of Section
                      10(b) and 20(a) Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as
                      amended, and Rule 10b-5. Roberts believes that such
                      allegations are without merit and intends to vigorously
                      defend against them.
