NEW STORES AND EXPANSION STRATEGY

The most important factors considered by the Company when deciding to
open new stores are the population density of the target area and the
automotive traffic count at the site of the proposed store. The most
important factors considered by the Company when deciding whether to close a
store are profitability and whether the store is outmoded by virtue of store
size, location and surroundings, number of service bays, number of other
stores within the same market area and the cost/benefit of establishing a
replacement store rather than expanding or otherwise upgrading an older
store.

The Company introduced a new supplemental store format in fiscal 1994,
which operates under the name Pep Boys - "PARTS USA". These new format
stores will generally be between approximately 10,000 - 13,000 square feet
and stock approximately 22,000 stock-keeping-units but will not carry tires or
have service bays. The Company believes the utilization of this secondary format
will enable it to grow at a faster rate and achieve greater economies of scale
by providing more retail outlets as well as increase its market penetration
and share.

The Company currently plans to open as many as 50 new automotive
"SUPERCENTERS" with service bays and 25 of its new format "PARTS USA" stores
in fiscal 1995. Included in this expansion will be the Company's initial
entry into Puerto Rico - its first units outside of the continental United
States. If the Company opens stores in all 75 locations, it anticipates
spending approximately $160,000,000 in addition to the $8,755,000 it had
already spent as of January 28, 1995 in connection with certain of these
locations. Funds required to finance this expansion are expected to come
primarily from operating activities with the remainder provided by unused
lines of credit or from accessing traditional lending sources which may
include the public capital markets.

During fiscal 1994 the Company opened 51 new stores which includes its
first "PARTS USA" store. All 50 of the automotive "SUPERCENTERS" opened
during fiscal 1994 were in the "warehouse" format, which was introduced in
fiscal 1991. The Company had 121 warehouse format stores as of January 28,
1995. In addition to lower capital costs and a shorter construction
schedule, the warehouse format stores provide a more convenient shopping
environment to customers. During 1994 the Company introduced the first of
its new prototype "SUPERCENTER". This new prototype features a number of
enhancements to the current warehouse format including a parts counter that
runs along the center aisle of the store. The Company believes this new
format further enhances customer service by positioning its store staff
closer to shoppers in the general merchandise area of the store. The Company
anticipates that all the automotive "SUPERCENTERS" to be opened in fiscal
1995 will be in this new prototype format and will consist of approximately
22,000 gross square feet, including approximately 12 service bays with
computerized diagnostic equipment.

The Company's ability to meet its expansion goals will depend, in large
measure, upon the availability of suitable sites, prevailing economic
conditions, its success in completing negotiations to purchase or lease
properties, and its ability to obtain governmental approvals and meet
construction deadlines.

MERCHANDISING

Each Pep Boys' automotive "SUPERCENTER" carries the same basic product
line, with variations based on the number and type of cars registered in the
different markets. A full complement of a store's inventory currently
includes approximately 25,000 items. The Company's automotive product line
includes: tires; batteries; new and rebuilt parts for domestic and imported
cars, including suspension parts, ignition parts, mufflers, engines and
engine parts, oil and air filters, belts, hoses, air conditioning parts, and
brake parts; chemicals, including oil, antifreeze, polishes, additives,
cleansers and paints; mobile electronics, including sound systems, alarms
and cellular telephones; car accessories, including seat covers, floor mats,
gauges, mirrors and booster cables; and a large selection of truck and van
accessories.

In addition to offering a wide variety of high quality, branded
products, the Company sells an array of high quality products under the Pep
Boys and various other private label names. The Company sells oil,
transmission fluid, chemicals, and paints under the Pep Boys name. The
Company sells antifreeze under the name PURE AS GOLD(R). The Company sells
starters and alternators under the names "True Blue" and PRO-START(R), water
pumps under the names "True Blue" and PRO-COOL(tm) and batteries under the
name PROSTART(R). Brakes are sold under the names SHUR GRIP(R) and
PROSTOP(tm) and tires under the names CORNELL(R) and FUTURA(R). The Company
also sells shock absorbers under the name "ProRyder", and trunk and
hatchback lift supports under the name PROLIFT(tm). All products sold by
the Company under the Pep Boys and various other private label names
accounted for approximately 22% of the Company's merchandise sales in fiscal
1994. The remaining merchandise is sold under the brand names of others.
Except for revenues from maintaining or repairing automobiles and installing
products, which accounted for approximately 12.8%, 13.3% and 13.9% of the
Company's total revenues in fiscal years 1992, 1993 and 1994 respectively,
no class of products or services accounted for as much as 10% of the
Company's total revenues.

The Company has a point-of-sale system in all of its stores which
gathers sales and gross profit data by stock-keeping-unit from each store on
a daily basis. This information is then used by the Company to help
formulate its pricing, marketing and merchandising strategies.

The Company has an electronic work order system in all of its service
centers. This system creates a service history for each vehicle, provides
customers with a comprehensive, professional sales document and will enable
the Company to establish a service customer database.

The Company uses an "Everyday Low Price" (EDLP) strategy in
establishing its selling prices. Management believes that EDLP provides
better value to its customers on a day-to-day basis, helps level customer
demand and allows more efficient management of inventories.

The Company uses various forms of advertising to promote its category
dominant product offering, its state-of-the-art automotive service and
repair capabilities and its commitment to customer service and satisfaction.
The Company's advertising vehicles include, but are not limited to,
multipage catalogs, television and radio commercials and in-store
promotions. A large portion of the gross cost of the advertising directed
by the Company is customarily borne by the suppliers of the products
advertised.

In fiscal 1994, approximately 72% of the Company's total revenues were
cash transactions (including personal checks), and the remainder were credit
and charge card sales.

The Company does not experience significant seasonal fluctuation in the
generation of its revenues.

STORE OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT

All Pep Boys' stores are open seven days a week. Each store with
service bays has a manager, a service manager, a parts manager and two or
more assistant managers. A store manager's average length of service with
the Company is approximately eight years.

The Company has service bays in 427 of its 435 locations. Each service
department can perform a variety of services which include: engine tune-ups,
wheel alignments, state inspections, air conditioning service; the repair
and installation of parts and accessories including brake parts, suspension
parts, exhaust systems, front end parts, ignition parts, belts, hoses,
clutches, filters, radios, alarms, sun roofs, cruise controls, and various
other merchandise sold in Pep Boys' stores; installation and balancing of
tires, and oil and lubrication services.

The Company coordinates the operation and merchandising of each store
through a network of district and regional managers. The regional managers
report to one of three Vice Presidents - Store Operations who report to the
Company's Senior Vice President - Store Operations who reports to the
Company's Executive Vice President. Supervision and control over the
individual stores are facilitated by means of the Company's computer system,
operational handbooks and regular visits to the individual stores by the
district operations managers and loss prevention personnel.

All of the Company's advertising, accounting, management information
systems, purchasing and most administrative functions are conducted at its
corporate headquarters in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Certain
administrative functions for the Company's western, southwestern, and
southeastern operations are performed at various regional offices of the
Company. See "Properties."

INVENTORY CONTROL AND DISTRIBUTION

Almost all of the Company's merchandise is distributed to its stores
from its warehouses by Company-owned or leased trucks. Target levels of
inventory for each product have been established for each of the Company's
warehouses and stores and are based upon prior shipment history, sales
trends and seasonal demand. Inventory on hand is compared to the target
levels on a weekly basis at each warehouse. If the inventory on hand at a
warehouse is below the target levels, the Company's buyers order merchandise
from its suppliers.

Each Pep Boys store has an automatic inventory replenishment system
that automatically orders additional inventory when a store's inventory on
hand falls below the target level. In addition, the Company's centralized
buying system installed in fiscal 1992, coupled with a new warehousing
system which is currently operating in four of its five main distribution
facilities, has greatly enhanced the Company's ability to control its
inventory. The Company plans to install the new warehousing system in its
remaining distribution center in fiscal 1995.

SUPPLIERS

During fiscal 1994, the Company's ten largest suppliers accounted for
approximately 32% of the merchandise purchased by the Company. No single
supplier accounted for more than 5% of the Company's purchases. The Company
has no long-term contracts for the purchase of merchandise. Management
believes that the relationships the Company has established with its
suppliers are generally good.

In the past, the Company has not experienced difficulty in obtaining
satisfactory sources of supply and believes that adequate alternative
sources of supply exist, at substantially similar cost, for virtually all
types of merchandise sold in its stores.

COMPETITION

The business of the Company is generally highly competitive. The
Company encounters competition from nationwide and regional chains and from
local independent merchants. Some of the Company's competitors are general,
full range, discount or traditional department stores which carry automotive
parts and accessories and/or have automotive service centers, and others,
similar to the Company, are specialized automotive service retailers.
Certain of its competitors are larger in terms of sales volume and/or store
size, have access to greater capital and management resources and have been
operating longer in particular geographic areas than the Company.

Although the Company's competition varies by geographical area, the
Company believes that it generally has a favorable competitive position in
terms of depth and breadth of product line, price, quality of personnel and
customer service.

In addition, the Company believes that its operation of service bays in
its "SUPERCENTERS'" automotive service centers positively differentiates it
from most of its competitors. The Company believes that the warranty
policies in connection with the higher priced items it sells, such as tires,
batteries, brake linings and other major automotive parts and accessories,
are comparable or superior to those of its competitors.

(1) Service revenue consists of the labor charge for installing merchandise or maintaining or repairing vehicles, excluding the
sale of any installed parts or materials.

(2) Costs of merchandise sales include the cost of products sold, buying, warehousing and store occupancy costs. Costs of
service revenue include service center payroll and related employee benefits and service center occupancy costs. Occupancy
costs include utilities, rents, real estate and property taxes, repairs and maintenance and depreciation and amortization
expenses.

(3) As a percentage of related sales or revenue, as applicable.

(4) As a percentage of earnings before income taxes and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle.

/TABLE

FISCAL 1994 vs. FISCAL 1993

Total revenues for fiscal 1994 increased 13% over fiscal 1993 due to a
higher store count (435 at January 28, 1995 compared with 386 at January 29,
1994) coupled with a 5% increase in comparable store revenues (revenues
generated by stores in operation during the same months of each period).
Comparable store merchandise sales increased 5% while comparable store service
revenue increased 8% over fiscal 1993.

The increase in gross profit from merchandise sales, as a percentage of
merchandise sales, was due primarily to significantly higher merchandise
margins and a slight decrease in store occupancy costs.

The small decrease in gross profit from service revenue, as a percentage
of service revenue, was due primarily to an increase in service payroll costs
offset, in part, by a decrease in service employee benefits costs.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, as a
percentage of total revenues, was due primarily to an increase in store
expenses offset, in part, by a decrease in employee benefits costs.

The 32% increase in interest expense was due to higher debt levels
incurred to fund the Company's store expansion program coupled with higher
interest rates.

The 22% increase in earnings before the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle in fiscal 1994, as compared with fiscal 1993, was due to
increases in comparable store revenues and gross profit from merchandise sales,
as a percentage of merchandise sales, offset, in part, by increases in selling,
general and administrative expenses and interest expense, as a percentage of
total revenues.

FISCAL 1993 vs. FISCAL 1992

Total revenues for fiscal 1993 increased 7% over fiscal 1992 due to a
higher store count (386 at January 29, 1994 compared with 357 at January 30,
1993) coupled with a 1% increase in comparable store revenues. Comparable
store merchandise sales remained constant while comparable store service
revenue increased 3% over fiscal 1992.

The increase in gross profit from merchandise sales, as a percentage of
merchandise sales, was due primarily to significantly higher merchandise
margins offset, in part, by increases in store occupancy costs and warehousing
costs.

The small increase in gross profit from service revenue, as a percentage
of service revenue, was due primarily to a decrease in service employee
benefits costs offset, in part, by an increase in service payroll and occupancy
costs.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, as a
percentage of total revenues, was due primarily to an increase in store
expenses.

The 2% decrease in interest expense was due to lower interest rates
offset, in part, by higher debt levels incurred to fund the Company's store
expansion program.

The increase in income taxes, as a percentage of earnings before income
taxes and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, was due
primarily to a 1% increase in the federal statutory tax rate from 34% to 35%.

The 20% increase in net earnings in fiscal 1993, as compared with fiscal
1992, was due to a substantial increase in gross profit from merchandise sales,
as a percentage of merchandise sales, offset, in part, by an increase in
selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total
revenues.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

The Company uses the LIFO method of inventory valuation. Thus, the cost
of merchandise sold approximates current cost. Although the Company
cannot accurately determine the precise effect of inflation on its operations,
it does not believe inflation has had a material effect on revenues or results
of operations during fiscal 1994, fiscal 1993 or fiscal 1992.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash requirements arise principally from the need to finance
the acquisition, construction and equipping of new stores and to purchase
inventory. The Company opened 51 stores in fiscal 1994, 37 stores in fiscal
1993 and 29 stores in fiscal 1992. In fiscal 1994, with increased levels of
capital expenditures, coupled with cash utilized to acquire shares of the
Company's common stock for its benefits trust, the Company increased its debt
by $182,859,000. In fiscal 1993, with increased levels of capital expenditures
coupled with cash utilized to acquire treasury stock which was subsequently
transferred to its benefits trust, the Company increased its debt by
$77,525,000. In fiscal 1992, with substantial cash flows from operating
activities and the conversion of substantially all its $75,000,000 convertible
subordinated notes, the Company reduced its debt by $72,639,000.



The following table indicates the Company's principal cash requirements
for the past three years.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 Net inventory additions include the increase in inventory less the net
change in checks outstanding and accounts payable.


Inventories have increased in the past three years as the Company added a
net of 98 stores while stock-keeping-units per store rose during the period
from approximately 22,000 to approximately 25,000, many of which were higher
cost hard parts.

The Company currently plans to open approximately 75 stores in fiscal
1995. Management estimates that the cost to open 75 stores, coupled with
capital expenditures in existing stores, warehouses and offices during fiscal
1995 will be approximately $200,000,000. Funds required to finance the store
expansion are expected to come from operating activities with the remainder
provided by unused lines of credit, which totalled $96,800,000 at January 28,
1995, or from accessing traditional lending sources which may include the
public capital markets.

The Company's working capital increased to $121,858,000 at January 28,
1995 from $92,518,000 at January 29, 1994. The Company's long-term debt
increased, as a percentage of its total capitalization, to 39% at January 28,
1995 from 32% at January 29, 1994.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


Board of Directors and Stockholders
The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack and subsidiaries as of January 28, 1995
and January 29, 1994, and the related consolidated statements of earnings,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended January 28, 1995. Our audits also included the financial
statement schedule listed in the index at Item 14. These financial
statements and the financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
financial statements and the financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack
and subsidiaries at January 28, 1995 and January 29, 1994, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended January 28, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as
a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth
therein.

As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, in 1994 the
Company changed its method of accounting for postemployment benefits to conform
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112.

THE PEP BOYS- MANNY, MOE & JACK AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended January 28, 1995, January 29, 1994 and January 30, 1993
(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)


NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS The Pep Boys-Manny, Moe & Jack and Subsidiaries (the "Company") is
engaged principally in the retail sale of automotive parts and accessories,
automotive maintenance and service and the installation of parts through a
chain of 435 stores at January 28, 1995.

FISCAL YEAR END The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to
January 31. Fiscal years 1994, 1993 and 1992 each comprised 52 weeks.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.

MERCHANDISE INVENTORIES Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of
cost (last-in, first-out method) or market. If the first-in, first-out method
of valuing inventories had been used, inventories would have been approximately
$15,319 and $15,452 higher at January 28, 1995 and January 29, 1994,
respectively.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over
the following estimated useful lives: building and improvements, 5 1/2 to 40
years; furniture, fixtures and equipment, 3 to 10 years.

CAPITALIZED INTEREST Interest on borrowed funds is capitalized in connection
with the construction of certain long-term assets. Capitalized interest
amounted to $1,850, $1,254 and $852 in fiscal years 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.

SERVICE REVENUE Service revenue consists of the labor charge for installing
merchandise or maintaining or repairing vehicles, excluding the sale of any
installed parts or materials.

COSTS OF REVENUES Costs of merchandise sales include the cost of products
sold, buying, warehousing and store occupancy costs. Costs of service revenue
include service center payroll and related employee benefits and service center
occupancy costs. Occupancy costs include utilities, rents, real estate and
property taxes, repairs and maintenance and depreciation and amortization
expenses.

PENSION EXPENSE Annual pension expense is actuarially computed using the
"projected unit credit method" which attributes an equal portion of total
projected benefits to each year of employee service.

INCOME TAXES The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income
taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under
the liability method, deferred income taxes are determined based upon enacted
tax laws and rates applied to the differences between the financial statement
and tax basis of assets and liabilities. The adoption of SFAS No. 109 on
February 2, 1992 did not have any effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

POSTRETIREMENT AND POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS Effective February 2, 1992 the
Company adopted SFAS No. 106, "Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other
than Pensions." As a result of adopting this standard, the Company recognized
an expense of $12 in fiscal year 1992, which is the full impact of SFAS No. 106
on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

Effective January 30, 1994 the Company adopted SFAS No. 112, "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." This statement establishes accrual
accounting standards for employer-provided benefits which cover former or
inactive employees after employment, but before retirement. As a result of
adopting this standard, the Company recognized a charge to earnings of $4,300,
net of income tax benefit of $2,552.

RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years'
consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year's
presentation.

NOTE B - DEBT

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS The Company had short-term borrowings of $97,200 at

.............................................................................


(a) The Company has a revolving credit agreement with seven major banks
providing for borrowings of up to $100,000. Funds may be drawn and repaid
anytime prior to June 30, 1995, at which time the total commitment, or any
portion thereof, may be converted, at the Company's election, into term
loans payable at 6.3% of the term commitment amount each quarter for the
next four years. At the Company's option, the interest rate on any loan
may be based on the prime rate, a "CD-based" rate, a "LIBOR-based" rate or
a negotiated rate based upon market conditions. The weighted average
interest rate was 6.1% at January 28, 1995 and 3.3% at January 29, 1994.

(b) Annual maturities for the 9.3% senior notes are as follows: $7,143 due in
each of 1995 and 1996 with the remaining balance of $1,785 due in 1997.

(c) The Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with a bank which
permits the Company to borrow an aggregate of $10,000. Upon the bank's
demand, this line is due and payable in 13 months. The interest rate on
this line, at the Company's election, is based on the prime rate, a "CD-
based" rate, a "LIBOR-based" rate or a negotiable rate based upon market
conditions. The weighted average interest rate was 6.2% at January 28,
1995.


(d) The weighted average interest rate on the mortgage notes payable was 6.9%
at January 28, 1995 and 5.3% at January 29, 1994. These notes, which
mature at various times through August 2016, are collateralized by land and
building with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $7,839 at
January 28, 1995.

CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES On August 24, 1994 the Company sold $86,250 of
4% convertible subordinated notes. These notes are convertible by the holders
into the common stock of the Company anytime on or before September 1, 1999
(the maturity date) at a conversion price of $41 per share subject to
adjustment in certain events. The notes are redeemable, in whole or in part,
at the option of the Company at any time on or after September 15, 1997, at a
redemption price of 101% of the principal amount and at par on or after
September 1, 1998.

Several of the Company's debt agreements require the maintenance of certain
financial ratios and covenants. Approximately $116,409 of the Company's net
worth was not restricted by these covenants at fiscal year end. The Company is
in compliance with all debt covenants at January 28, 1995.

The annual maturities of all long-term debt for the next five years are $19,769
in 1995, $153,959 in 1996, $26,932 in 1997, $25,157 in 1998 and $98,920 in
1999. Any compensating balance requirements related to all revolving credit
agreements and debt were satisfied by balances available from normal business
operations.

The Company was contingently liable for outstanding letters of credit in the
amount of approximately $28,904 at January 28, 1995.

NOTE C - LEASE COMMITMENTS

The Company leases certain property and equipment under operating leases
which contain renewal and escalation clauses. Aggregate minimum rental
commitments for leases having noncancellable lease terms of more than one year
are approximately: 1995 - $16,811; 1996 - $15,827; 1997 - $15,015; 1998 -
$14,027; 1999 - $13,673; thereafter - $185,984. The present value of the
aggregate minimum rental commitments for operating leases, discounted at 10% is
approximately $124,626. Rental expenses incurred for operating leases in 1994,
1993 and 1992 were $18,474, $16,786 and $14,094, respectively.

NOTE D - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

RIGHTS AGREEMENT On December 31, 1987, the Company distributed as a dividend
one common share purchase right on each of its common shares. The rights will
not be exercisable or transferable apart from the Company's common stock until
a person or group, as defined in the rights agreement, (dated December 17, 1987
and as amended on June 6, 1989), without the proper consent of the Company's
Board of Directors, acquires 20% or more, or makes an offer to acquire 30% or
more of the Company's outstanding stock, exclusive of stock holdings as of
December 17, 1987. When exercisable, the rights entitle the holder to purchase
one share of the Company's common stock for $55. Under certain circumstances,
including the acquisition of 20% of the Company's stock by a person or group,
the rights entitle the holder to purchase common stock of the Company or common
stock of an acquiring company having a market value of twice the exercise price
of the right. The rights do not have voting power and are subject to
redemption by the Company's Board of Directors for $.02 per right anytime
before a 20% position has been acquired and for 15 days thereafter, at which
time the rights become nonredeemable. The rights expire on December 31, 1997.

BENEFITS TRUST On April 29, 1994 the Company established a flexible employee
benefits trust with the intention of purchasing up to $75,000 worth of the
Company's common shares. The repurchased shares will be held in the trust and
will be used to fund the Company's existing benefit plan obligations including
healthcare programs, savings and retirement plans and other benefit
obligations. The trust will allocate or sell the repurchased shares over the
next 15 years to fund these benefit programs. As shares are released from the
trust, the Company will charge or credit additional paid-in capital for the
difference between the fair value of shares released and the original cost of
the shares to the trust. For financial reporting purposes the trust is
consolidated with the accounts of the Company. All dividend and interest
transactions between the trust and the Company are eliminated. As of January
28, 1995, the Company has repurchased 2,232,500 shares of its common stock at a
cost of $60,269,000 which is shown as "Cost of shares in benefits trust" on the
Company's consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE E - PENSION AND SAVINGS PLANS

The Company has a pension plan covering substantially all of its full-time
employees hired on or before February 1, 1992. Normal retirement age is 65.
Pension benefits are based on salary and years of service. The Company's
policy is to fund amounts as are necessary on an actuarial basis to provide
assets sufficient to meet the benefits to be paid to plan members in accordance
with the requirements of ERISA.

The actuarial computations using the "projected unit credit method" assumed
a discount rate on benefit obligations of 7.8% in 1994 and 8% in 1993 and 1992,
and an expected long-term rate of return on plan assets of 8.5%. The
assumption for annual salary increases over the average remaining service lives
of employees under the plan was 4% in 1994 and 1993, and 6.5% in 1992.
Variances between actual experience and assumptions for costs and returns on
assets are amortized over the remaining service lives of employees under the
plan.

Pension expense includes the following:

Pension plan assets are stated at fair market value and are composed primarily
of guaranteed investment contracts, group annuity contracts and money market
funds, all with major insurance companies and banking institutions, and
investments in the Company's common stock.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the plan's funded status
as of December 31 of each year. The actuarial present value of benefit
obligation assumed a discount rate of 8.5% at December 31, 1994 and 7.8% at
December 31, 1993.

The Company has a 401(k) savings plan which covers all full-time employees who
are at least 21 years of age with one or more years of service. The Company
contributes the lesser of 50% of the first 6% of a participant's contributions
or 3% of the participant's compensation. The Company's savings plan
contribution expense was $2,563 in 1994, $2,277 in 1993, and $1,980 in 1992.

NOTE G --- NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

Net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding after reduction for treasury shares
and shares held in benefits trust and assuming exercise of dilutive stock
options computed by the treasury stock method using the average market price
during the period. Primary and fully diluted earnings per share are
essentially the same.

The weighted average number of shares and share equivalents used in
computing net earnings per share were: 60,565,000 in 1994, 61,891,000 in 1993
and 60,636,000 in 1992.


NOTE H - STOCK OPTIONS AND AWARDS

Options to purchase the Company's common stock have been granted to key
employees and certain members of the Board of Directors. The option prices are

Under the Company's present accounting system, actual gross profit from merchandise sales can be determined only at the time of
physical inventory, which is taken at the end of the fiscal year. Gross profit from merchandise sales for the first, second and
third quarters is estimated by the Company based upon recent historical gross profit experience and other appropriate factors. Any
variation between estimated and actual gross profit from merchandise sales for the first three quarters is reflected in the fourth
quarter's results.
