NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
(All Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per-Share Data):

A - INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

The consolidated financial information presented herein is unaudited, other
than the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1994, which is derived
from audited financial statements.  The interim financial statements and notes
thereto do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the company's latest annual report on
Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all
adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the
results for interim periods.  The current period's results of operations are
not necessarily indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the
year.

In December 1994, the company sold its interests in the Asgrow Seed Company. 
Where appropriate, these financial statements have been restated to reflect
this sale as a discontinued operation.

B - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:

Earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings available to the
common shareholder by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding plus common stock equivalents principally in the form
of employee stock option awards and, in the case of fully diluted earnings per
share, the number of common shares into which the preferred stock would be
assumed to be converted.  Also in the fully diluted computation, net earnings
are adjusted by the difference between dividends on preferred and common stock
under the if-converted assumption.  

C - INVENTORIES:

                                               ========       ========

Inventories valued on the LIFO method had an estimated replacement cost (FIFO
basis) of $360,032 at March 31, 1995, and $360,124 at December 31, 1994.

D - DEBT:

Long-term debt consisted of the following:                                     
                                                    March 31,     December 31,

                                                    ========       ========

The Medium-Term Notes were issued under 1993 and 1991 shelf registrations
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  At March 31, 1995,
$134,000 remained available for issuance under these registrations.

E - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES:

The consolidated balance sheets include accruals for estimated product and
environmental liabilities.  The latter includes exposures related to
discontinued operations, including the industrial chemical facility at North
Haven, Connecticut, and environmental exposures at several "Superfund" or
comparable sites.  

The company has committed to make a series of investments, as certain progress
goals are met, in a company that intends to manufacture a hemoglobin-based
oxygen carrier.  These investments could aggregate $179,000 over a period of
years.  As of March 31, 1995, the company has invested $82,000.  Also pursuant
to the agreement, the company has committed to conduct clinical development.

F - LITIGATION:

There are various legal proceedings against the company, including a
substantial number of product liability suits claiming damages as a result of
the use of the company's products including approximately 100 cases involving
HALCION.  

On May 10, 1995 a jury verdict of patent infringement was handed down by the
United States District Court for the District of Delaware regarding the
marketing of a nonprescription ibuprofen/psuedoephedrine combination product. 
The company expects to pay a royalty on all sales of the products from
commencement of the lawsuit until entry of a permanent injunction against
further sales by Upjohn is ordered by the Court.  The plaintiff has not yet
moved for a permanent injunction against further sales, and the Court has not
entered such an injunction.  If the injunction is ordered, Upjohn will have to
stop distributing the product in the United States.  The amount of the royalty
is not expected to be material.  The company is considering further legal
options.

The company is also involved in several administrative and judicial
proceedings relating to environmental matters, including actions brought by
the U.S. EPA and state environmental agencies for cleanup at approximately 40
"Superfund" or comparable sites.  The company's estimate of the ultimate cost
to be incurred in connection with these environmental situations could change
due to cleanup procedures to be employed, if any; the cost of cleanup; and the
company's share of a site's cost.    

The company is a party, along with approximately 30 other defendant
manufacturers and wholesalers, in numerous state and federal civil antitrust
lawsuits brought by retail pharmacies and retail pharmacy chains and
supermarkets.  In the main, this series of actions seeks treble damages and
injunctive relief based on allegations of price discrimination and antitrust
violations with respect to discounts and rebates provided to certain customers
but denied to the plaintiffs.  Federal cases have been consolidated for trial
on certain antitrust issues in the Federal District Court for the Northern
District of Illinois.  That court has certified a class of retail pharmacy
plaintiffs in a class action.  It is possible that additional cases making
similar claims will be filed naming the company as a defendant.

Based on information currently available and the company's experience with
lawsuits of the nature of those currently filed or anticipated to be filed
which have resulted from business activities to date, the amounts accrued for
product and environmental liabilities arising from the litigation and
proceedings referred to above are considered to be adequate.  Although the
company cannot predict the outcome of individual lawsuits, at this time the
company believes the ultimate liability should not have a material effect on
consolidated financial position; and unless there is a significant deviation
from the historical pattern of resolution of such issues, the ultimate
liability should not have a material adverse effect on the company's results
of operations or liquidity.

For several years, the company has been in the process of evaluating existing
environmental conditions at the North Haven, Connecticut facility.  This
evaluation, conducted in compliance with a corrective action order issued by
the U.S. EPA on September 29, 1989, is largely complete.  The U.S. EPA and the
company have entered into an Administrative Order on Consent (effective as of
June 18, 1994) under which the company will conduct a Corrective Measures
Study and will implement interim measures appropriate for site stabilization
pending final remedial work as may be necessary.

G - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

The company utilizes derivative financial instruments in conjunction with its
foreign currency risk management programs and does not use such instruments
for trading purposes.  These programs include the creation of designated
hedges of the net foreign currency transaction exposures of certain
significant international subsidiary operations.  There were no hedges of
anticipated transactions at March 31, 1995.

The company's program to hedge net foreign currency transaction exposures is
designed to protect operating results and cash flows from potential adverse
effects of foreign currency fluctuations related to intercompany and selected
third-party transactions.  The hedging activities seek to limit this risk by
offsetting the gains and losses on the underlying exposures with losses and
gains on the instruments utilized to create the hedge.  This program utilizes
over-the-counter forward exchange contracts with terms consistent with the
underlying exposures.  These contracts generally have maturities that do not
exceed twelve months and require the company to exchange currencies at agreed-
upon rates at maturity.

At March 31, 1995, the notional amount of the company's outstanding foreign
exchange forward contracts held related to the net transaction exposure
hedging program was $142,899.  

The counterparties to these contracts consist of a limited number of major
international financial institutions.  The company does not expect any losses
from credit exposure due to review and control procedures established by
corporate policy.

H - RESTRUCTURING:

The company accrued restructuring charges as of September 30, 1993, that
included costs of $136,109 related to a worldwide work-force reduction of
approximately 1,500 employees.  The majority of these employees were employed
in marketing, administrative, and manufacturing functions.  As of March 31,
1995, approximately 1,200 employees had terminated under this restructuring
program.  Of the amount originally accrued for work-force reduction,
approximately $11,600 remains as current and noncurrent liabilities of the
company.  There have been no adjustments made to increase or decrease the
liabilities originally accrued for the purpose of work-force reduction.

All sales data and financial results for the first quarter of 1994 have been 
restated to reflect the sale of the company's interests in the Asgrow Seed
Company as a discontinued operation.  

First-quarter 1995 consolidated sales were up 1 percent with domestic sales
decreasing 15 percent to $409 million from $479 million.  Domestic sales
represented 51 percent of total consolidated sales as compared to 60 percent
one year earlier.  International sales of $400 million were up 24 percent from
$322 million in the first quarter of 1994.  In total, consolidated sales were
up as the result of foreign exchange benefit of 3 percent offset by 1 percent
declines in both volume and price.  Significant volume increases in
international markets were offset by volume declines in the U.S.  

Total revenue benefited from the sale of the company's rights under a product
co-marketing agreement.  This sale added $26 million (15 cents per share) to
first quarter 1995 net earnings.  This agreement contributed 1 cent per share
to net earnings in the first quarter of 1994.

Also affecting year-to-year comparisons, the discontinued Asgrow Seed Company
contributed $11 million (6 cents per share) to net earnings in 1994.  An
increase in the annual effective tax rate in the first quarter of 1995 reduced
primary earnings per share by 6 cents when compared to the first quarter of
1994.

The decline in worldwide sales of central nervous system agents was the net
result of strong international sales increases for both XANAX, the anti-
anxiety agent and HALCION, the sleep inducing agent being offset by continuing
significant generic competition against XANAX in the U.S.   The first-quarter
1995 U.S. sales decline in XANAX was significantly less in both dollars and as
a percent of prior year sales than that experienced in the first three months
of 1994.

A significant decline in the U.S. sales of ANSAID (flurbiprofen), resulting
from generic competition first encountered in late 1994, led to the overall
decline in the steroid, anti-inflammatory and analgesic product group for the
first quarter of 1995.  MOTRIN IB, the over-the-counter nonsteroidal
analgesic, also recorded a significant sales decline in the first quarter of
1995.  This decline has been attributed to an effort by wholesalers to reduce
inventories.  As the result of a court verdict issued in May 1995, it is
possible that the company may be enjoined from distributing the product MOTRIN
IB Sinus in the U.S. in the near future.  Sales of MOTRIN IB Sinus are not
material to total consolidated sales.

Good U.S. sales performance by DEPO-PROVERA, the injectable contraceptive,
continued to lead growth in the reproductive and women's health products
group.  This performance was offset by a decline in the sales of OGEN, the
estrogen replacement therapy, that has been subject to generic substitution. 

The sales increase in the critical care, transplant and cancer products group
was led by the sales performance of SOLU-MEDROL, the injectable steroid, and
other MEDROL products outside the U.S.  Strong international sales growth from
the DALACIN (CLEOCIN in the U.S.) family of antibiotic products led the growth
in the infectious disease category that also benefited from the continuing
solid performance of VANTIN, the broad-spectrum oral antibiotic.

The increase in sales of animal health products was driven by good performance
from several products in international markets, led by the Lincomycin and
Spectinomycin antibiotic products.  International growth also benefited from
an increase in sales of the antibiotic EXCENEL (NAXCEL in U.S. markets).  A
decline in U.S. sales of NAXCEL for the first quarter of 1995 was attributable
to an overall healthier cattle population and high sales in 1994 resulting
from purchases preceding a price increase.

Generic competition for MICRONASE (glyburide), the oral anti-diabetes agent
that lost U.S. market exclusivity in the second quarter of 1994, led to the
decline in sales of other products and materials.  GLYNASE PresTab, the oral
anti-diabetes agent, continued to record good growth.  Increased sales of
pharmaceutical and specialty chemicals also showed growth in this product
group.

OPERATING EXPENSE AND INCOME

                                                    ----       ----
Cost of products sold                               27.9%      25.3%
Research and development                            17.8       19.3
Marketing and administrative                        36.8       37.6
Operating income                                    24.7       19.0

The increase in the cost of products sold as a percent of sales is the result
of a change in product and geographic mix.  The company's generic and other
products carry lower gross margins than the products that have recently lost
patent protection.  Also, as noted above, a higher percentage of total sales
were realized in international markets where the company's product line
generally carries lower gross margins.

Expenditures for research and development were down somewhat as a percent of
sales for the first quarter of 1995.  This fluctuation is the result of a
favorable comparison due to the timing of certain expenditures related to
major clinical trials.  It is expected that research and development
expenditures in dollars for the current year will approximate those incurred
for the full year 1994.

The decline in marketing and administrative expense was the result of expense
controls and cost savings realized from the 1993 restructuring.  Restructuring
programs were in the early stages of implementation during the first quarter
of 1994.  Some of the savings from these efforts were offset by higher costs
resulting from foreign exchange comparisons, especially in Japan and certain
European markets.

The increase in operating income as a percent of sales is the direct result of
the revenue realized from the sale of rights under the agreement discussed
above.  Excluding this revenue, operating income would have been 19.5 percent
of sales, up slightly from the first quarter of 1994.

NONOPERATING INCOME AND EXPENSE

The favorable interest income to interest expense comparison made a greater
contribution to earnings from continuing operations before income taxes in the
first quarter of 1995 than in 1994.  This was realized due to higher total
returns from investments, including investment of the proceeds from the sale
of the discontinued Asgrow Seed Company.  First-quarter 1994 minority equity
in losses of $2.2 million has been reclassified to "All other, net" for
consistency with the current-year presentation.  First-quarter 1995 minority
equity in losses was immaterial.

INCOME TAXES

The estimated annual effective tax rate for 1995 is 29 percent, compared to 24
percent in 1994 (the effective rate for the first quarter of 1994 was 22.5
percent after the restatement to reflect the exclusion of Asgrow Seed
Company).  The higher rate for 1995 is the result of changes in the U.S. tax
law, which significantly reduced tax benefits from operations in Puerto Rico.

Current ratio                              1.98            1.90
Debt to total capitalization              25.6%           26.0%
Return on average equity -
 continuing operations                    24.8%           22.0%

Working capital at March 31, 1995 was up with a corresponding improvement in
the current ratio.  This resulted from increased accounts receivable at the
end of the quarter relating to a special sales promotion in 1994; the effects
of exchange on receivables in Europe and Japan; and the receivable from the
sale of the co-marketing rights, noted above.  In future quarters, accounts
receivable are expected to decline from the current level.  The proceeds from
the sale of the Asgrow Seed Company also contributed to the relatively high
level of working capital.  A common stock repurchase program that will utilize
approximately $300 million is underway.  The ratio of debt to total
capitalization benefited from the increase in total shareholders' equity.  The
increase in the return on average equity is largely due to the proceeds from
the sale of the company's rights under the marketing alliance agreement,
discussed above.

Cash from operations in the first quarter of 1995 of $46 million was down
significantly from the first quarter of 1994 due to the increase in accounts
receivable as noted above and a reduction in accounts payable.  Cash from
operations was also reduced by approximately $20 million in spending against
restructuring reserves established in 1993.  For the remainder of 1995, there
is not expected to be significant cash spending related to restructuring. 
Cash required for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment declined
from the prior year, primarily due to timing.  Cash required for the purchase
of treasury stock is up slightly for the quarter but is expected to increase
significantly as the year progresses as the result of the common stock
repurchase program noted above.

See Note G for a discussion of the company's use of derivative financial
instruments.

OTHER ITEMS

All company operations continue to be subject to increased environmental
regulation and legislation, as well as more stringent cleanup requirements and
legal actions (see Notes E and F to the Consolidated Financial Statements). 

The company is unable to predict what effect these matters or any pending or
future legislation, regulations, or government actions may have on its
business.
