           TOOTSIE ROLL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             MARCH 30, 1996
                              (UNAUDITED)



Note 1 - Foregoing data has been prepared from the unaudited financial
records           of the Company and in the opinion of Management all
adjustments               necessary for a fair statement of the results for
the interim period           have been reflected.  All adjustments were of a
normal and recurring           nature.


Note 2 - The Company's unshipped orders at March 30, 1996 amounted to       
           $13,200,000.


Note 3 - Based on Average Shares outstanding adjusted for Stock Dividends and
          the 2 - for - 1 Stock Split in 1995.


Note 4 - Includes 3% Stock Dividends distributed on April 23, 1996 and April 
          21, 1995 and the 2 - for 1 - Stock Split effective on July 11,
1995.


Note 5 - Results of operations for the period ended March 30, 1996 are not  
           necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year to
end           December 31, 1996 because of the seasonal nature of the
Company's             operations.  Historically, the Third Quarter has been
the Company's           largest Sales Quarter due to Halloween Sales.


Note 6 - Form 8-K was not required to be filed during the First Quarter of  
           1996.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          THE CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF EARNINGS
                   

The following is Management's discussion of the Company's operating results
and analysis of factors which have affected the accompanying Statement of
Earnings:

NET SALES:
                                         First Quarter, 1996
             First Quarter                         vs.
          1996          1995             First Quarter, 1995
      $63,264,854    $60,269,205                 +5.0%

First Quarter 1996 net sales of $63,264,854, a record, were up 5.0% from
First Quarter 1995 net sales of $60,269,205.  Sales rose as a result of
successful promotional programs, product line extensions and the introduction
of new products into the distribution channels.  Consolidated sales were also
favorably affected by improved results in Mexico.




First Quarter 1996 net sales of $63,264,854 were down from Fourth Quarter
1995 net sales of $67,145,159.  This is not considered unusual as the First
Quarter of the year is normally the company's lowest quarter in sales and is
consistent with the historical trend.

COST OF SALES:
                                           Cost of Sales as a
            First Quarter                    Percentage of Net Sales
     1996           1995             1st Qtr. 1996  1st Qtr. 1995
 $32,578,259    $30,702,860               51.5%          50.9%

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased slightly from 50.9% for
First Quarter 1995 to 51.5% for First Quarter 1996. This increase principally
reflects increases in certain ingredients costs. 

NET EARNINGS:
                                        First Quarter, 1996
      First  Quarter                               vs.
     1996          1995                      First Quarter, 1995
 $8,117,962     $7,318,470                   +10.9%

First Quarter 1996 net earnings of $8,117,962 or $0.35 per share, a record,
were up 10.9% from net earnings of $7,318,470 or $0.32 per share for the
First Quarter 1995. The increase in net earnings reflects higher sales,
control of operating expenses resulting in improved margins from operations
and increased net investment income.

                                       <PAGE>


First Quarter 1996 net earnings of $8,117,962 decreased $372,377 or 4.4% from
Fourth Quarter of 1995 net earnings of $8,490,339, which reflects the lower
level of sales in the First Quarter 1996 compared to the Fourth Quarter 1995.
 This is consistent with historical trends.
