1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

     Rent-Way, Inc., (the "Company" or "Rent-Way") is a corporation organized
     under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Company operates a
     chain of stores that rent durable household products such as home
     entertainment equipment, furniture, and major appliances and jewelry to
     consumers on a weekly or monthly basis. The accompanying unaudited
     condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
     instructions to Form 10-QSB, and therefore, do not include all information
     and notes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results
     of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted
     accounting principles.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
     (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are necessary
     for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and
     cash flows of the Company have been made.  The results of operations for
     the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the
     full year.

     Certain amounts in the 1995 condensed financial statements have been
     reclassified to conform to the 1996 presentation.

     These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in
     conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements included in its
     Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995.

2.   PUBLIC STOCK OFFERING:

     On March 26, 1996, the Company completed a public offering consisting of
     1,850,000 shares of Common Stock offered by the Company and 388,750 shares
     of Common Stock offered by certain shareholders. In addition, the Company
     granted the underwriters a 30 day option to purchase up to 335,812 shares
     of Common Stock, solely to cover over-allotments.

     The shares were offered at a price of $8.50 per share.  The Company
     received net proceeds (less underwriters discount and selling expenses) of
     $14.3 million. The Company used these proceeds to repay outstanding
     borrowings of $13.2 million under the Company's secured credit agreement
     with First Source Financial LLP, to redeem a portion of its outstanding
     Series A Preferred Stock and for general corporate purposes.

3.   EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:

     Primary and fully diluted earnings per common share are computed based on
     net income after preferred stock dividend requirements.  The weighted
     average number of common shares outstanding during each period is adjusted
     to give effect to stock options and warrants considered to be dilutive
     common stock equivalents. Additionally, fully diluted weighted average
     number of shares outstanding is adjusted to give effect to convertible debt
     deemed to be another potentially dilutive security.

     The 1995 earnings per common share amounts have been restated to reflect a
     three-for-two stock split in the form of a 50% stock dividend to
     shareholders of record on August 4, 1995.

     its  Series A Preferred Stock.  The 115,812 stock options are 100%
     exercisable and expire five years from the date of grant.  Of the common
     shares issued, 356,688 shares were delivered to the former shareholders of
     MLC and 225,000 were placed in escrow.

     The 225,000 shares of common stock placed in escrow will be released on
     October 1, 1996 as follows:

     (i)   If the average market price of Rent-Way's common stock on the twenty
           trading days preceding October 1, 1996 is greater than $18.57 per
           share, all of the escrowed shares will be released to Rent-Way.

     (ii)  If the average market price of Rent-Way's common stock on the
           twenty trading days preceding October 1, 1996 is less than $11.60 per
           share, all of the escrowed shares will be released to the former
           shareholders of MLC.

     (iii) If the average market price of Rent-Way's common stock on the
           twenty trading days preceding October 1, 1996 is greater than $11.60
           per share, but less than $18.57 per share, the number of shares of
           escrowed stock to be released shall be determined by dividing  
           $6,747,581 by the average market price of Rent-Way common stock on
           October 1, 1996 and subtracting the quotient from 581,688 shares.
           This amount shall be released to Rent-Way and the balance shall be
           released to the former shareholders of MLC.

     The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
     MLC's assets and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values
     as of the acquisition date. The excess of the acquisition cost over the
     fair value of the net liabilities assumed ("goodwill") of $10,588,273 is
     being amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. The total cost of
     the net assets acquired was $6,434,024 ($3,684,024 in common stock and
     $2,750,000 in redeemable preferred stock) and consisted of assets of
     $16,213,438 less liabilities assumed of $8,449,594 and acquisition expenses
     of $1,329,820. The estimate of the total cost of the acquisition may be
     adjusted based on the resolution of certain contingencies.

     Following are pro forma results of operations for the three months and six
     months ended March 31, 1995 assuming the acquisition had occurred on
     October 1, 1994. The results are not necessarily indicative of future
     operations or what would have occurred had the acquisition been consummated
     as of October 1, 1994.

5.   CONTINGENCIES:

     The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary
     course of its business that have not been finally adjudicated.  These
     actions when ultimately concluded will either be indemnified or will not,
     in the opinion of management, have a material adverse effect on the results
     of operations or financial condition of the Company.


6.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

     On April 1, 1996 the Company received notification from Rauscher Pierce
     Refsnes, Inc., (lead underwriter on the public stock offering), of their
     intention to exercise the over-allotment option associated with the public
     offering.  As a result of such exercise, on April 4, 1996 the Company sold
     335,812 shares of Common Stock and received net proceeds (less underwriters
     discount) of $2.7 million. These proceeds will be used for general
     corporate purposes.

     On April 3, 1996, the Company redeemed a portion of its Series A Preferred
     Stock from the net proceeds of the offering pursuant to an agreement with
     the holders thereof. Of the 22,529 shares issued and outstanding, 11,269
     were redeemed at a cost of $1.1 million. The Series A Preferred Stock was
     issued in connection with the acquisition of McKenzie Leasing Corporation,
     has a 7% dividend preference, payable quarterly when declared, and is
     subject to redemption at the option of (i) the holder in accordance with a
     schedule or (ii) the Company, in whole or in part, at any time.

ITEM 2  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

OVERVIEW:

During the three and six months ended March 31, 1996, the Company generated
record  revenues, operating income and net income. For the three and six
months ending March 31, 1996 the Company's total revenues increased by
108.1% and 109.5%, respectively. In addition operating income increased by
247.8% and 282.5% while net income increased by 162.4% and 197.0% compared to
the three and six month periods last year. The Company's improved
performance is primarily attributable to the acquisition of McKenzie Leasing
Corporation ("MLC"), certain economies of scale and increased same-store
revenues. Same-store revenues increased by 5.7% and 6.4% as compared to the
three and six month periods ended last year.

In March 1996, the Company completed a public offering of 2,238,750 shares of
its Common Stock at $8.50 per share. Of the 2,238,750 shares, 1,850,000 shares
were offered by the Company and 388,750 shares were offered by selling
shareholders. In April 1996, the Company's underwriters exercised their
option to purchase 335,812 additional shares to cover over-allotments.
Proceeds from the stock offering were used to repay all outstanding
borrowings with First Source Financial LLP, to redeem a portion of the
Company's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock and for general corporate
purposes.

During the three months ended March 31, 1996, management completed the
remodeling, conversion and installation of its point of sale software in
substantially all of the former MLC stores. In addition, the Company
strengthened its management team by adding in-house counsel, a director of
marketing and four operations managers, all with a minimum of five years
experience with a major industry competitor. Currently, management is
actively seeking merger and acquisition candidates whose financial and
geographic profiles are consistent with the Company's growth objectives.
The rental-purchase industry is highly fragmented, and management believes
the Company is well positioned to take advantage of consolidation
opportunities that exist.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995

For the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1995, total revenues increased by $6.4 million (108.1%) to $12.3
million from $5.9 million.  The increase was principally due to the
inclusion of three months results for the stores acquired in the
acquisition of MLC, ("McKenzie Acquisition").  The stores acquired in the
McKenzie Acquisition, which was consummated on July 21, 1995, accounted for
$6.1 million (95.0%) of the increase, while the Company's same-stores
accounted for $323,000 (5.0%) of the increase. Other revenue increased by
$814,000 (90.3%) to $1.7 million from $901,000 principally due to the
McKenzie Acquisition.

For the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1995, total costs and operating expenses increased to $10.8 million
from $5.5 million primarily as a result of the costs and operating expenses
associated with the McKenzie Acquisition, but decreased to 87.3% from 92.4% of
total revenues.  This percentage decrease of 5.1% resulted primarily from a
decrease in depreciation expense as a percentage of total revenue.  Depreciation
expense related to rental merchandise increased by $1.5 million to $3.4 million
from $1.9 million, but decreased by 5.4% as a percentage of total revenues
primarily due to certain increases in weekly rental rates, lower purchase costs
of rental merchandise due to increased volume, improved realization and a lower
cost basis of merchandise relative to revenues in the stores acquired in the
McKenzie Acquisition. Amortization of goodwill increased by $162,000 or 0.7% of
total revenues primarily because of the increase in goodwill related to the
McKenzie Acquisition. Salaries and wages increased by $ 1.6 million to $3.0
million from $1.4 million principally due to the addition of the stores
associated with the McKenzie Acquisition and the addition of several key
management personnel in the operations, legal, human resource, accounting and
information systems departments. Salaries and wages were 24.6% and 23.6% of
total revenues for the three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Advertising expense increased $258,000 to $492,000 from $234,000
principally due to the addition of the stores associated with the McKenzie
Acquisition. Occupancy expense increased $364,000 to $761,000 from $397,000
principally due to the addition of the stores associated with the McKenzie
Acquisition, but decreased to 6.2% from 6.7% of total revenues. Other operating
expenses increased $1.4 million to $2.7 million from $1.3 million principally
due to the addition of the stores associated with the McKenzie Acquisition, but
decreased to 21.8% from 22.2% of total revenues. This 0.4% decrease occurred
because of the Company's ability to allocate corporate costs and certain
overhead costs over a greater number of stores and increased revenues.

For the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1995, operating income increased by $1.1 million (247.8%) to $1.6
million from $500,000, and increased to 12.7% from 7.6% of total revenues.
The improvement in operating income was principally due to the McKenzie
Acquisition and the factors discussed above.

For the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1995, interest expense increased by $280,000 to $521,000 from
$241,000 and increased to 4.2% from 4.1% of total revenues principally due to
the debt incurred in connection with the McKenzie Acquisition.

For the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1995, income tax expense increased to $504,000 from $0 because the
Company generated greater taxable income and because income tax expense was
offset by an increase in the Company's net deferred tax asset in the three
months ended March 31, 1995. The Company is accruing income tax expense
based on an effective tax rate of 46%, which is higher than the statutory
tax rates, because amortization expense related to goodwill incurred in
connection with its acquisitions is not deductible for purposes of computing
income tax.

For the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1995, net income increased by $365,000 (162.4%) to $589,000 from
$224,000.  The increase, which resulted in net income increasing to 4.8%
from 3.8% of total revenues, was due to the factors discussed above.

COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, total revenues increased by $12.6 million (109.5%) to $24.2
million from $11.5 million. The increase was principally due to the
inclusion of six months of results for the stores acquired in the McKenzie
Acquisition.  The stores acquired in the McKenzie Acquisition, which was
onsummated on July 21, 1995, accounted for $11.9 million (94.0%) of the
increase, while the Company's same-stores accounted for $700,000 (6.0%) of
the increase.  Other revenue increased by $1.7 million (99.9%) to $3.3
million from $1.6 million principally due to the McKenzie Acquisition.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, total costs and operating expenses increased to $21.1
million from $10.7 million primarily as a result of the costs and operating
expenses associated with the McKenzie Acquisition, but decreased to 87.2%
from 93.0% of total revenues. This decrease of 5.8% resulted primarily from a
decrease in depreciation expense. Depreciation expense related to rental
merchandise increased by $2.9

million to $6.5 million from $3.6 million, but decreased by 4.7% as a percentage
of total revenues primarily due to certain increases in weekly rental rates,
lower purchase costs of rental merchandise due to increased volume, improved
realization and a lower cost basis of merchandise relative to revenues in the
stores acquired in the McKenzie Acquisition. Amortization of goodwill increased
by $295,000 or 0.6% of total revenues primarily because of the increase in
goodwill related to the McKenzie Acquisition.  Salaries and wages increased by
$3.2 million to $6.0 million from $2.8 million principally due to the addition
of the store personnel associated with the McKenzie Acquisition and the addition
of several key management personnel in the operations, legal, human resource,
accounting and information systems departments. Salaries and wages were 24.7%
and 24.2% of total revenues for the six month periods ended March 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.  Advertising expense increased $431,000 to $1.1 million from
$670,000 principally due to the addition of the stores associated with the
McKenzie Acquisition. Advertising expense decreased by 1.2% of total revenues to
4.6% from 5.8%. Occupancy expense increased $770,000 to $1.6 million from
$788,000 principally due to the addition of the stores associated with the
McKenzie Acquisition, but decreased to 6.5% from 6.8% of total revenues. Other
operating expenses increased $2.7 million to $5.2 million from $2.5 million
principally due to the addition of the stores associated with the McKenzie
Acquisition, but decreased to 21.5% from 21.7% of total revenues. This 0.2%
decrease occurred because of the Company's ability to allocate corporate costs
and certain overhead costs over a greater number of stores and increased
revenues.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, operating income increased by $2.3 million (282.5%) to $3.1
million from $808,000, and increased to 12.8% from 7.0% of total revenues.
The improvement in operating income was principally due to the McKenzie
Acquisition and the factors discussed above.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, interest expense increased by $612,000 to $1.1 million from
$455,000 and increased to 4.4% from 3.9% of total revenues principally due to
the debt incurred in connection with the McKenzie Acquisition.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, income tax expense increased to $1.0 million from $0 because
the Company generated greater taxable income and because income tax expense
was offset by an increase in the Company's net deferred tax asset in the six
months ended March 31, 1995. The Company is accruing income tax expense
based on an effective tax rate of 46%, which is higher than the statutory
tax rates, because amortization expense related to goodwill incurred in
connection with its acquisitions is not deductible for purposes of computing
income tax.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, net income increased by $749,000 (197.0%) to $1.1 million
from $380,000.  The increase, which resulted in net income increasing to
4.7% from 3.3% of total revenues, was due to the factors discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On March 26, 1996, the Company completed a public offering consisting of
1,850,000 shares of Common Stock offered by the Company and 388,750 shares of
Common Stock offered by certain selling shareholders, at a price of $8.50 per
share, and received net proceeds (less underwriters discount and selling
expenses) of $14.3 million. In addition, the Company's underwriter
exercised their over-allotment option for 335,812 shares of Common Stock on
April 4, 1996, which resulted in additional net proceeds (less underwriters
discount) of $2.7 million. The Company used these proceeds to pay down
$13.2 million of its senior indebtedness with First Source Financial LLP
($8.4 million of revolving loan commitment and $4.8 million working capital
commitment) and to redeem $1.1 million of the Company's outstanding Series A
Preferred Stock pursuant to an agreement with the holders thereof. The
Series A Preferred Stock was issued in connection with the McKenzie
Acquisition, has a 7% dividend preference, payable quarterly when declared,
and is subject to redemption at the option of (i) the holder in accordance
with a schedule or (ii) the Company, in whole or in part, at any time.  As of
March 31, 1996, the Company had approximately $5.8 million of
availability under its working capital loan commitment and $1.3 million of
availability under its revolving loan commitment. Certain provisions of the
Company's credit agreement with First Source Financial LLP restrict the
Company's ability to make acquisitions.  The Company is involved in
discussions with First Source to amend the credit agreement and obtain a new
acquisition credit facility.  There can be no assurances that such
discussions will be successful.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended March
31, 1995, the Company's net cash provided by (used in) operating activities
increased to $166,000 from $338,000.  This decline was principally due to a $4.6
million increase in rental merchandise purchases offset by a $749,000 increase
in net income and a $3.3 million increase in non-cash depreciation and
amortization. The increase in depreciation, amortization, and rental merchandise
purchases resulted primarily from the McKenzie Acquisition,  which significantly
increased the size of the Company.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, the Company's net cash used in investing activities
increased to ($1.2 million) from ($1.0 million). The increase in net cash
used in investing activities was principally due to remodeling and computer
conversion costs incurred in certain stores associated with the McKenzie
Acquisition.

For the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the six months ended
March 31, 1995, the Company's net cash provided by financing activities
increased to $2.2 million from $1.1 million. The increase in net cash
provided by financing activities was principally due to cash receipts from
the Company's public offering in excess of debt repayment.

In accordance with the recognition criteria of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", the Company has
recognized a net deferred tax asset of $1.4 million. The Company's net
deferred tax asset increased by $20,000 during the six months ended March
31, 1996. Recognition of the Company's net deferred tax asset is based on
management's estimate of taxable income in future years.

INFLATION

During the six months ended March 31, 1996, the cost of rental merchandise,
lease rental expense and salaries and wages have increased modestly. These
increases have not had a significant effect on the results of operations
because the Company has been able to charge commensurably higher rental for
its merchandise.  This trend is expected to continue in the foreseeable
future.
