                        BANGOR HYDRO-ELECTRIC COMPANY
             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
                      OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
  
    Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Results of Operations and
Financial Condition contained in Bangor Hydro-Electric Company's (the
"Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993
("1993 Form 10-K") should be read in conjunction with the comments below.
    
EARNINGS
    Earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 1994 were $.22 per common share
compared to $.42 per common share for the same period in 1993.  The second
quarter results brought earnings for the first six months of 1994 to $.34 per
common share compared to $.88 per common share for the same period in 1993. 
The 1994 earnings per share numbers are both based on a greater number of
common shares outstanding than in 1993.
    Although second quarter earnings were less than the Company's current
common dividend payout, they were about what was expected.  As indicated in
prior reports, the Company anticipated a difficult year in 1994 despite a
recent base rate increase.  The economy continues to be sluggish and sales
growth remains lower than that which was assumed by the Maine Public
Utilities Commission (MPUC) in the recent base rate order, and the Company
has had to respond to competitive pressures by reducing rates to some
customers in order to keep their business.  In response to these challenges,
the Company presented a proposal for flexible pricing to the MPUC which would
allow the Company the opportunity to compete for a greater market share of
the energy service market.  The Company is also pursuing the prospects of
additional buyouts of high cost, non-utility generator contracts.  The
Company's objective is to provide stable rate levels to our core customers,
competitively priced energy options in expanding markets, and reasonable
returns to investors for the long term.  While these steps might not provide
an immediate bolster to the current low level of earnings, the Company
believes the continued success of our business lies in capitalizing on the
fact that the Company provides an energy resource of great value that is
presently underutilized, rather than a never-ending succession of rate
increase requests.

REVENUES
    The base rate revenue increase of $2.3 million or 12.6% was primarily
the result of the 15.9% base rate increase effective March 1, 1994.  This
increase was offset by the impact of special contract rates with the
Company's two largest industrial customers, Holtrachem (formerly LCP) and
James River, which were implemented in the first quarter of 1994.  While
kilowatt hour (KWH) sales to Holtrachem decreased by 11.9% in the second
quarter of 1994, base rate revenue decreased by 25.7%.  KWH sales to James
River increased by 28.9%, but base rate revenue for this customer decreased
by 29.8%.   Exclusive of the impact of these two special contracts, non-
interruptible (or firm) sales increased by 2.2% in the second quarter of
1994.
    Fuel charge revenue decreased by $3.2 million or 14.7% in the second
quarter of 1994 over the same quarter of 1993.  This decrease was due
principally to the 12.5% fuel rate decrease effective in November 1993, as
well as the impact of the special contract with James River.  The  Accounting
Release 14 (AR 14) reclassification resulted in additional fuel charge
revenue of $3.2 million for the second quarter of 1994 as compared to $3.5
million for the same quarter of 1993.
    
EXPENSES
    As a result of the deferred fuel accounting methodology followed by the
Company, retail fuel expense is recorded to match the retail fuel cost
adjustment portion of fuel charge revenue.  Fuel expense was also impacted by
the AR 14 reclassification, resulting in an increase of $3.2 million in fuel
expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1994 as compared to an increase of
$3.5 million for the second quarter of 1993.
    Purchased power expense increased by $140,000 or 4.3% in the second
quarter of 1994 as compared to the same quarter of 1993.  The increase was
principally due to higher capacity and transmission costs associated with the
Maine Yankee nuclear plant in the second quarter of 1994.
    Other operation and maintenance (O&M) expense increased $1.045 million
or 14.8% in the second quarter of 1994.  This expense increase was impacted
by the Company charging to operations, beginning in March 1994, the full
amount of other postretirement benefit expense under Financial Accounting
Board Statement Number 106 "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions" (FASB 106) in excess of the amount recorded on a pay-as-
you-go basis, which amounted to $392,000 in the second quarter of 1993.  Also
amortizations of certain deferred charges allowed in the most recent base
rate case amounted to $249,000 of expense in the 1994 quarter.  In addition
in the second quarter of 1994, other medical costs increased $240,000, and
pension income decreased $106,000 as compared to the second quarter of 1993.
These increases were offset by a $140,000 decrease in O&M payroll. The
decreased payroll is a result of the early retirement program implemented
during the first quarter of 1994, offset by a 3.5% wage rate increase for
bargaining unit employees effective January 1, 1994. 
    Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $50,000 or 4.0% due
to an increase in depreciable property.
    Effective March 1, 1994 in connection with the recent base rate
increase, the Company began amortizing deferred costs associated with the
Beaver Wood Joint Venture (Beaver Wood) purchased power contract termination
over a nine year period.  Amortization expense amounted to $971,000 in the
second quarter of 1994.
    Property and payroll taxes increased $140,000 or 14.1% as a result of
higher levels of property taxes due to greater property levels and increased
property tax rates.
    Income taxes decreased $160,000 or 12.9% due principally to lower
taxable income in the second quarter of 1994.
    Allowance for funds used during construction ("AFDC") decreased, the
equity portion by $228,000 or 51.8% and the borrowed portion by $251,000 or
55.3%.  A large part of this reduction was due to carrying costs accrued in
1993 on costs associated with the Beaver Wood purchased power contract
termination, which took place in June 1993.  In the second quarter of 1993,
approximately $238,000 in Beaver Wood buyout  carrying costs were recorded. 
In the second quarter of 1994 no such carrying cost were recorded, as
effective with the new base rates implemented March 1, 1994, the Company
discontinued the accrual of these carrying costs, since the recovery of the
contract termination costs (including carrying costs and a return on
unamortized balances) is included in the revised rates.  Another factor
impacting decreased AFDC in the 1994 quarter was the cessation of accruing
AFDC on costs related to the Basin Mills project effective December 31, 1993. 
In the second quarter of 1993 $118,000 of AFDC was recorded on Basin Mills
costs.  
     Long-term debt interest expense increased by $250,000 or 10.2% due to
the issuance in June 1993 of $15 million of first mortgage bonds at an
interest rate of 7.3% and the issuance of $14.3 million of first mortgage
bonds at an interest rate of 12.25%.  The latter bonds were issued in
exchange for other lenders' debt in connection with the buyout of the Beaver
Wood purchased power contract.  These were partially offset by reduced
interest expense as a result of regular and optional sinking fund payments on
certain higher rate bonds as well as the redemption of the remaining
principal balances of the 9.25% series due 2001, 8.25% series due 1999, and
the 8.6% series due 2003. 
    Other interest expense is composed primarily of interest expense on
short term borrowings.  This expense increased by $55,000 or 21.7% due 
principally to increased interest rates. 


                SIX MONTHS OF 1994 VERSUS SIX MONTHS OF 1993

    Base rate revenue increased $2.6 million or 6.8% in 1994 due to 15.9%
base rate increase on March 1, 1994.  This increase was offset by the impact
of the previously mentioned special contract rates with Holtrachem and James
River.  While KWH sales to Holtrachem decreased by 6.0% in the first six
months of 1994, base rate revenue decreased by 29.4%.  KWH sales to James
River increased by 30.7%, but base rate revenue for this customer decreased
by 13.3%.   Exclusive of the impact of these two special contracts, firm
sales increased by 2.2% in 1994.
    Fuel charge revenue decreased by $6.8 million or 13.0% in 1994.  This
decrease was due principally to the 12.5% fuel rate decrease effective in
November 1993, as well as the impact of the special contract with James
River.  The AR 14 reclassification resulted in additional fuel charge revenue
of $6.3 million for the 1994 period as compared to $7.7 million for 1993.
    Purchased power expense decreased $599,000 or 8.4% due to lower capacity
and transmission costs associated with the Maine Yankee nuclear plant in
1994.
    Other O&M expense increased $4.4 million or 32.2% for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the same period for 1993.  This expense
has increased due primarily to the early retirement program implemented in
the first quarter of 1994, which resulted in approximately $2.8 million in
expense being charged to operations. Other postretirement benefits under FASB
106 in excess of pay-as-you-go amounted to $531,000 in the 1994 period, and
other medical costs increased by $263,000 over the 1993 period.  In addition,
previously mentioned base rate case amortizations amounted to $336,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1994.  Also increasing other O&M in 1994 was a
decrease in pension income of $211,000 as compared to 1993.  Other O&M
payroll increased $144,000 in the 1994 period as compared to 1993.  The
reasons for this increase were higher levels of capitalized payroll costs in
1993 and the January 1, 1994 wage rate increase of 3.5% for bargaining unit
employees.  These were partially offset by the impact of the early retirement
program in the first quarter of 1994. 
    Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $104,000 or 4.2% due
to an increase in depreciable property.
    Amortization of the costs associated with the buyout of the Beaver Wood
purchased power contract amounted to $1.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1994.
    Property and payroll taxes increased $331,000 or 16.3% for the six
months ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the same period in 1993 due to
higher levels of taxable property and increased property tax rates.
    Income taxes decreased $1.4 million for the 1994 period due principally
to lower taxable income.  
    The equity portion of AFDC decreased by $34,000 or 4.3% and the borrowed
portion increased by $149,000 or 20.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1994
as compared to 1993.  The increase in the borrowed portion is due primarily
to carrying costs associated with the Beaver Wood purchased power contract
buyout, which were $280,000 greater in the 1994 period.  This increase was
offset by no AFDC being accrued on Basin Mills costs in 1994 as compared to
$102,000 of AFDC in the 1993 period.
    Other income (expense), net of applicable taxes, decreased by $189,000
due principally to a change in Holtrachem's electric rate in the first
quarter of 1994.
    Long term debt interest expense increased $598,000 for the 1994 period
as compared to 1993.  As previously discussed, the increase is related to the
various first mortgage bonds issued, offset by the reduction in bonds
outstanding as a result of regular and optional sinking fund payments on
certain higher rate bonds, as well as redemptions of certain first mortgage
bonds.  
    Other interest expense increased $220,000 or 44.7% for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the same period in 1993.  The increase is
attributable to an $8.2 million increase in average short-term debt
borrowings outstanding in the 1994 period.  Also, average short-term interest
rates were .06% higher in the 1994 period as compared to 1993.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows reflect events in the first
six months of 1994 and 1993 as they affect the Company's liquidity.  Net cash
provided by operations was $20.4 million for the first six months of 1994
compared with $17.6 million for the first six months of 1993.  The increase
was due to a $1.1 million decrease in accounts payable in 1994 as compared to
a $5.0 million reduction in 1993.  Also enhancing cash flows from operations
was a $5.2 million decrease in accrued current income taxes in the 1993
period compared to no change in 1994.   These increases in cash flows from
operations were offset to some degree by a $7.1 million decrease in the
deferred income tax provision in 1994 as compared to 1993.  In addition
accounts receivable, net and unbilled revenue increased by $3.1 million in
1994 as compared to a $6.0 million increase in the 1993 period. 
    Deferred fuel, purchased power and interest costs decreased $4.2 million
for the 1994 period as compared to a $6.1 million decrease for the 1993
period.  
    On March 30, 1994 the Company completed a common stock offering that
raised approximately $14.1 million with the issuance and sale of 867,500
shares of common stock.  The proceeds from the sale were utilized to reduce
the Company's outstanding short-term debt.  During the second quarter of 1994
shareholders approved a proposal to increase the amount of additional common
stock, $5 par value, and preferred stock, $100 par value, that the Company is
authorized to issue, by 2.5 million shares and 200,000 shares, respectively.
    As previously discussed, external funds in the amount of $15 million
were provided by the issue of first mortgage bonds in 1993.  The documents
governing these bonds do not provide for sinking fund payments.  The proceeds
from the bond issuance were used to reduce short-term debt balances and fund
the Company's construction program.
    Under the Company's Dividend Reinvestment and Common Stock Purchase Plan
the Company realized a common stock investment of $662,000 through the
issuance of 38,491 new common shares in the first six months of 1994 as
compared to $633,000 in the comparable 1993 period through the issue of
30,668 shares.
    The Company's bank borrowings are provided through a $25 million
revolving credit facility as well as $30 million in lines of credits.
Effective May 26, 1994 the Company renegotiated its revolving credit
agreement with the participating banks for a period of one year, with an
option to renew for one additional year.
    As previously discussed, the Company made regular and optional sinking
fund payments on certain of the higher rate coupon bonds and also redeemed
the remaining principal balances of three series of first mortgage bonds in
1993.

               NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                JUNE 30, 1994

(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

    Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q
pursuant to the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  However, in the opinion of Bangor Hydro-Electric Company, the
disclosures contained in this Form 10-Q are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading.  These statements should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and all
other information included in the 1993 Form 10-K.
    In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring
accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30,
1994 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended June
30, 1994 and 1993.
    The Company's significant accounting policies are described 
in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in its 1993 
Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  For interim 
reporting purposes, the Company follows these same basic accounting policies 
but considers each interim period as an integral part of an annual period.  
Accordingly, certain expenses are allocated to interim periods based upon 
estimates of such expenses for the year.

(4)  BUYOUT OF PURCHASED POWER CONTRACT:

        In June 1993 the Company negotiated an agreement to cancel its
purchased power agreement with the Beaver Wood Joint Venture 
("Beaver Wood").  The cancellation called for the Company to pay Beaver Wood
$24 million and additionally issue $14.3 million of a new series of 12.25%
First Mortgage Bonds due July 15, 2001 to the holders of Beaver Wood's debt
in substitution for Beaver Wood's previously outstanding 12.25% Secured
Notes.  The cancellation agreement also called for Beaver Wood to pay the
Company $1 million at the time of settling the transaction and also to pay $1
million annually for the next six years.  These payments are secured by a
mortgage on the property of the Beaver Wood facility.  The Company believes
this transaction will result in significant savings to its customers compared
to the continuation of payments under the purchased power agreement.  
        In May 1993 the Company received an accounting order from the MPUC
related to the purchased power contract buyout.  The order stipulated that
the Company may seek recovery of the costs associated with the buyout in a
future base rate case, as well as record carrying costs on the deferred
balance.  Effective with the implementation of the new base rates on March 1,
1994, the Company began recovering over a nine year period the deferred
balance of $34,977,179 (net of the $6 million anticipated to be 
received from Beaver Wood) at a monthly amortization of $323,863.
