                                 JUNE 28, 1997
                                  (UNAUDITED)

(1)  PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

    The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
    prepared by Leslie's Poolmart, Inc. (the "Company"), without audit, and
    include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are, in the
    opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
    operations for the three and six month periods ended June 28, 1997 and June
    29, 1996 pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
    Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
    included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
    accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
    such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures in
    these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented
    not misleading.

    The following material under the heading "Management's Discussion and
    Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" is written with
    the presumption that the users of the interim financial statements have read
    or have access to the 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K for Leslie's Poolmart,
    a California corporation ("Leslie's California") filed with the Securities
    and Exchange Commission on March 27, 1997.  This document contains the
    latest audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with
    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
    Operations as of December 28, 1996 and for the year then ended.  The results
    of operations for the six months ended June 28, 1997 and June 29, 1996 are
    not indicative of the results for a full year.

(2)  ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

    Leslie's Poolmart, Inc. is a specialty retailer of swimming pool supplies
    and related products.  The Company currently markets its products under the
    trade name Leslie's Swimming Pool Supplies through 278 retail stores in 27
    states and through mail order catalogs sent to selected swimming pool
    owners.  The Company also repackages certain bulk chemical products for
    retail sale.  The Company's business is highly seasonal as the majority of
    its sales (79% in 1996 and 1995) and all of its operating profits are
    generated in the second and third quarters.

    On June 11, 1997 Leslie's California reincorporated in Delaware by merger
    into a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary (the "Reincorporation), and merged
    Poolmart USA Inc., a newly-formed corporation, with and into the Company
    (the "Recapitalization").  As a result of the Recapitalization, (i) each
    outstanding share of common stock of Leslie's California was converted into
    $14.50 cash (other than 359,505 shares owned primarily by members of
    management, including Michael Fourticq, the Chairman of the Company, and
    Brian McDermott, the President and CEO of the Company); and (ii) outstanding
    options covering approximately 846,000 shares of common stock, including
    those not yet vested, were retired upon for payment of the difference
    between the exercise price and $14.50 per share.  The total value of the
    shares and options approximated $101 million.

    In order to finance the repurchase of the outstanding common shares and
    options, the Company issued $90,000,000 of its 10.375 percent Senior Notes
    and sold 1,074,138 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of
    $15,575,000.  As indicated above, certain directors and members of
    management converted some of the Leslie's California common shares which
    they owned into shares of the Company's common stock.

    Also in connection with the Recapitalization, the Company issued 28,000
    shares of its Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per
    share, at $1,000 per share for a total consideration of $28,000,000,
    consisting of cash and an exchange of the $10,000,000 principal amount of
    Convertible Subordinated Debentures of Leslie's California held by
    Occidental Petroleum Corporation.  In connection with this transaction,
    Occidental received Warrants to purchase up to 15.0% of the shares of the
    Company's common stock at a purchase price of $0.01 per share (subject to
    adjustment) for a period of ten years.

    Subsequent to the Recapitalization, the Company issued stock options to
    certain members of management.  The difference between the fair market value
    of the options and the option price has been recorded as recapitalization
    costs in the accompanying financial statements.

(4) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In March 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" (SFAS 128)
    and SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure" (SFAS
    129).  SFAS 128 revises and simplifies the computation for earnings per
    share and requires certain additional disclosures.  SFAS 129 requires
    additional disclosures regarding the Company's capital structure.  Both
    standards will be adopted in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.  Management
    does not expect the adoption of these standards to have a material effect on
    the Company's financial position or results of operations.

(5) EARNINGS PER SHARE

    Due to the significant change in the Company's capital structure as a result
    of the Recapitilization, the Company's earnings per share calculation is
    presented for the three month and six month periods ended on June 28, 1997
    on a pro forma basis. The pro forma presentation reflects (i) the common
    stock and common stock equivalents outstanding after the Recapitalization as
    if they were outstanding for the entire three or six month periods, as
    applicable; (ii) the new debt and equity balances and the resulting interest
    expense, net of income tax benefits, as if the Recapitalization occurred on
    December 29, 1996; and (iii) the preferred stock dividends and related
    discount amortization from the beginning of the period to the
    Recapitilization date. The earnings per share calculations for periods
    prior to January 1, 1997 are not presented as such amounts are not
    meaningful due to the significant change in the Company's capital structure.

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

    OVERVIEW

    Leslie's Poolmart, Inc. is the leading specialty retailer of swimming pool
    supplies and related products in the United States.  The Company currently
    markets its products through 278 Company-owned retail stores in 27 states
    and through a nationwide mail order catalog.  Leslie's is vertically
    integrated, operating a chemical repackaging facility in Ontario,
    California. It supplies its retail stores from distribution facilities
    located in Ontario, California; Dallas, Texas; and Bridgeport, New Jersey.

    On June 11, 1997 Leslie's California reincorporated in Delaware by merger
    into a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary (the "Reincorporation), and merged
    Poolmart USA Inc., a newly-formed corporation, with and into the Company
    (the "Recapitalization").  As a result of the Recapitalization, (i) each
    outstanding share of common stock of Leslie's California was converted into
    $14.50 cash (other than 359,505 shares owned primarily by members of
    management, including Michael Fourticq, the Chairman of the Company, and
    Brian McDermott, the President and CEO of the Company); and (ii) outstanding
    options covering approximately 846,000 shares of common stock, including
    those not yet vested, were retired upon for payment of the difference
    between the exercise price and $14.50 per share.  The total value of the
    shares and options approximated $101 million.

    In order to finance the repurchase of the outstanding common shares and
    options, the Company issued $90,000,000 of its 10.375 percent Senior Notes
    and sold 1,074,138 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of
    $15,575,000.  As indicated above, certain directors and members of
    management converted some of the Leslie's California common shares which
    they owned into shares of the Company's common stock.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
    Also in connection with the Recapitalization, the Company issued 28,000
    shares of its Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per
    share, at $1,000 per share for a total consideration of $28,000,000
    consisting of cash and an exchange of the $10,000,000 principal amount of
    Convertible Subordinated Debentures of Leslie's California held by
    Occidental Petroleum Corporation.  In connection with this transaction,
    Occidental received Warrants to purchase up to 15.0% of the shares of the
    Company's common stock at a purchase price of $0.01 per share (subject to
    adjustment) for a period of ten years.

    Subsequent to the Recapitalization, the Company issued stock options to
    certain members of management.  The difference between the fair market value
    of the options and the option price has been recorded as recapitalization
    costs in the accompanying financial statements.

    SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS

    The Company's business exhibits substantial seasonality which the Company
    believes is typical of the swimming pool supply industry.  In general, sales
    and net income are highest during the second and third fiscal quarters which
    represent the peak months of swimming pool use.  Sales are substantially
    lower during the first and fourth quarters when the Company will typically
    incur net losses.

    The Company expects that its quarterly results of operations will fluctuate
    depending on the timing and amount of revenue contributed by new stores and,
    to a lesser degree, the timing of costs associated with the opening of new
    stores. The Company attempts to open its new stores in the first quarter or
    early in the second quarter in order to position itself for the following
    peak season.

      Total Sales            $98,034   $88,835   $121,850   $106,899
 
</TABLE>

    Sales for the second quarter ended June 28, 1997 increased 10.4% over the
    second quarter of 1996, bringing the year-to-date sales growth to 14.0%.
    Retail sales grew 12.0% in the second quarter and 15.7% year-to-date,
    reflecting an increase in the total number of Company stores in operation as
    well as comparable store sales gains of 6.6% for the quarter and 9.6% for
    the year-to-date period. Since December 28, 1996, 23 new stores have been
    opened and 4 stores were closed bringing the total store count to 278 as of
    June 28, 1997. 

    The increase in comparable store sales resulted from the maturing of new
    stores opened over the last several years, and from continued growth of
    commercial sales. In total, commercial sales grew by 15.6% in the second
    quarter and 17.9% for the year-to-date period as compared to last year.
    Additionally, in the Southern California market, the Company is testing the
    operations of its service technicians out of the local stores, and as a
    result, is reflecting these service sales in the retail store sales total.
    This increased the comparable store sales gains by approximately 1.0% in the
    second quarter, and 1.2% year-to-date.

    Mail order catalog sales declined 22.2% in the second quarter and 17.7%
    year-to-date as compared to prior year. New store openings in a number of
    strong mail order markets continue to cannibalize mail order sales this
    year.   Service Department sales increased 1.5% in the second quarter, and
    2.7% year-to-date, reflecting strong growth in the Texas service centers,
    offset by the reclassification of the Southern California service sales to
    the retail store sales.

    The gross margin for the three months ended June 28, 1997 equaled 41.7%,
    1.3% of sales lower than was reported in the second quarter of 1996.  This
    brings the year-to-date gross margin to 38.1%, 1.7% of sales lower than the
    first half of 1996. Gross profit represents sales less the cost of services
    and purchased goods, chemical repackaging costs, and non-administrative
    occupancy costs.  The gross margin decline in 1997 is largely attributable
    to increased promotional activity, including increased retail price
    discounting in 1997 associated with the grand opening of new stores, and to
    an increase in store rent expense as a percentage of sales.  Store rent
    expense increased in 1997 with the addition of the 24 new stores opened for
    the 1997 selling season.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
    In the second quarter of 1997, selling, general and administrative expenses
    equaled $23,788,000, a 13.8% increase above the $20,908,000 incurred in the
    second quarter of 1996. This brings the year-to-date selling, general and
    administrative expenses to $38,843,000, up 15.2% over the prior year. The
    15.2% year-to-date growth in selling, general and administrative expenses
    reflects higher operating expenses associated with the increased sales and
    the addition of 24 stores in 1997.

    Interest expense equalled $948,000 in the second quarter of 1997, and
    $1,747,000 year-to-date, up from $756,000 and $1,590,000 in the same fiscal
    periods in 1996.  The higher interest expense was primarily due to increased
    borrowings in June of 1997 resulting from the completion of the
    Recapitalization transaction and the related issuance of the $90,000,000 in
    Senior Notes.

    As a result of the modest 10.4% total sales growth and lower gross margins
    in the second quarter of 1997, an EBITDA of $18,367,000 was reported for the
    quarter as compared to $18,534,000 in the very strong second quarter of
    1996.  This brings the year-to-date EBITDA to $10,124,000 in 1997 as
    compared to $10,970,000 in the first six months of 1996.  EBITDA represents
    earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, fixed asset
    writeoffs, LIFO inventory adjustments, and any costs related to the recent
    Recapitalization transaction.

    FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

    Between December 28, 1996 and June 28, 1997, total current assets increased
    $29,467,000, principally the result of inventory which increased
    $19,579,000, and cash, which increased $7,516,000 during the period.  The
    inventory increase resulted primarily from the seasonal nature of the
    Company's business, and the increased number of stores in operation in 1997.
    The increased cash balance in June is a result of the new capital structure
    created in the Recapitalization transaction.

    Over the same period, current liabilities increased $11,752,000, largely due
    to a $21,213,000 increase in accounts payable relating primarily to
    favorable dating terms on trade payables extended by vendors supporting the
    seasonal inventory build up.  Partially offsetting the accounts payable
    increase was a $15,440,000 reduction in the line of credit borrowings
    resulting from the positive cash flow from operations and from the Company's
    new capital structure established with the Recapitalization.

    LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    For the first two quarters ending June 28, 1997, net cash provided by
    operating activities was $12,886,000 compared with $14,268,000 in the first
    half of the prior year.  Lower earnings and slightly higher working capital
    requirements produced the slightly lower cash flow from operating activities
    in 1997.

    For the first six months ended June 28, 1997, cash used in investing
    activities was $5,413,000 compared with $5,849,000 in the first two quarters
    of the prior year. This decrease results from increased capital expenditures
    in 1997 as compared to 1996, which was more than offset by proceeds from the
    sale of several properties in 1997.  The relocation of the Company's
    corporate offices and southern California distribution and repackaging
    operations to new facilities in 1997 produced the increased capital spending
    in 1997.

    Cash provided by financing activities was $43,000 in the first six months of
    1997 compared with cash used of $8,370,000 in the first half of 1996. In the
    second quarter of 1997, the Recapitalization transaction was completed
    creating a new and significantly different capital structure for the
    Company.  The cash provided by financing activities in 1997 reflects this
    change.

    The Company believes that its internally generated funds, as well as its
    borrowing capacity, are adequate to meet its working capital needs, maturing
    obligations and capital expenditure requirements, including those relating
    to the opening of new stores.

    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

    In March 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" (SFAS 128)
    and SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure" (SFAS
    129).  SFAS 128 revises and simplifies the computation for earnings per
    share and requires certain additional disclosures.  SFAS 129 requires
    additional disclosures regarding the Company's capital structure.  Both
    standards will be adopted in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.  Management
    does not expect the adoption of these standards to have a material effect on
    the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Note: On June 11, 1997, the Company completed a Recapitalization whereby the 
number of outstanding shares of common stock were reduced from approximately 
6,548,000 to 1,433,643. The pro forma computation of earnings (loss) per share 
reflects (i) the common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding after the
Recapitalization as if they were outstanding for the entire three or six month 
periods, as applicable; (ii) the new debt and equity balances and the resulting
interest expense, net of income tax benefits, as if the Recapitalization 
occurred on December 29, 1996; and (iii) the preferred stock dividends and 
related discount amortization from the beginning of the period to the 
Recapitalization date.
