PART I

Item 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

Johnson & Johnson, employing approximately 81,600 people worldwide, is
engaged in the manufacture and sale of a broad range of products in the health
care field in many countries of the world. Johnson & Johnson's primary
interest, both historically and currently, has been in products related to
health and well-being.

Johnson & Johnson is organized on the principles of decentralized
management. The Executive Committee of Johnson & Johnson is the principal
management group responsible for the operations of Johnson & Johnson. In
addition, three Executive Committee members are Chairmen of Sector Operating
Committees, which are comprised of managers who represent key operations within
the sector, as well as management expertise in other specialized functions.
These Committees oversee and coordinate the activities of domestic and
international companies related to each of the consumer, pharmaceutical,
professional and diagnostic businesses. Operating management of each company
is headed by a President, General Manager or Managing Director who reports
directly or through a Company Group Chairman. In line with this policy of
decentralization, each international subsidiary is, with some exceptions,
managed by citizens of the country where it is located.

SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS; GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

Johnson & Johnson's worldwide business is divided into three segments:
Consumer, Pharmaceutical and Professional. Johnson & Johnson further
categorizes its sales and operating profit by major geographic areas of the
world. The narrative and tabular (but not the graphic) descriptions of
segments and geographic categories captioned "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition -- Segments of
Business, Consumer, Pharmaceutical, Professional and Geographic Areas" on pages
26 through 28 and 41 of Johnson & Johnson's annual report to stockholders for
fiscal year 1993 are incorporated herein by reference thereto.

CONSUMER

The Consumer segment's principal products are toiletries and hygienic
products, including dental and baby care products, first aid products,
nonprescription drugs, sanitary protection products and adult incontinence
products. Major brands include ACT Fluoride Rinse; BAND-AID Brand Adhesive
Bandages; CAREFREE Panty Shields; 'o.b.' Tampons; CLEAN & CLEAR Skin Care
Products; SHOWER TO SHOWER toiletries products; STAYFREE and SURE & NATURAL
sanitary protection products; IMODIUM A-D, an antidiarrheal; JOHNSON'S baby
products; MONISTAT 7, an over-the counter remedy for vaginal yeast infections;
MYLANTA gastrointestinal products from the Johnson & Johnson and Merck & Co.,
Inc. joint venture; PEDIACARE children's cold and allergy medications; PENATEN
and NATUSAN baby toiletries; PIZ BUIN and SUNDOWN sun care products; PREVENT
and REACH toothbrushes; SERENITY incontinence products; and the broad family of
TYLENOL acetaminophen products. These products are marketed principally to the
general public and distributed both to wholesalers and directly to independent
and chain retail outlets.

4

PHARMACEUTICAL

The Pharmaceutical segment's principal worldwide franchises are in the
allergy and asthma, antifungal, central nervous system, contraceptive,
dermatology, gastrointestinal, immunobiology and biotech fields. These
products are distributed both directly and through wholesalers for use by
health care professionals and the general public. Prescription drugs include
DURAGESIC, a transdermal patch for chronic pain; EPREX (sold in the U.S. as
PROCRIT), a biotechnology derived version of the human hormone erythropoietin,
which stimulates red blood cell production; ERGAMISOL, a colon cancer drug;
FLOXIN, an antibacterial; HISMANAL, the once-a-day less sedating antihistamine;
IMODIUM, an antidiarrheal; LEUSTATIN, for hairy cell leukemia; MOTILIUM, a
gastrointestinal mobilizer; NIZORAL, SPORANOX and TERAZOL, antifungals;
ORTHOCLONE OKT-3, for reversing the rejection of kidney transplants;
ORTHO-NOVUM group of oral contraceptives; PREPULSID (sold in the U.S. as
PROPULSID), a gastrointestinal prokinetic; and RETIN-A, a dermatological cream
for acne.

PROFESSIONAL

The Professional segment includes suture and mechanical wound closure
products, less-invasive surgical instruments, dental products, diagnostic
products, medical equipment and devices, ophthalmic products, surgical
instruments, joint replacements and products for wound management and infection
prevention. These products are used principally in the professional fields by
physicians, dentists, nurses, therapists, hospitals, diagnostic laboratories
and clinics. Distribution to these markets is done both directly and through
surgical supply and other dealers.

INTERNATIONAL

The international business of Johnson & Johnson is conducted by
subsidiaries manufacturing in 43 countries outside the United States and
selling in most countries of the world. The products made and sold in the
international business include many of those described above under
"Business--Consumer, Pharmaceutical and Professional." However, the principal
markets, products and methods of distribution in the international business
vary with the country and the culture. The products sold in the international
business include not only those which were developed in the United States but
also those which were developed by subsidiaries abroad.

Investments and activities in some countries outside the United States are
subject to higher risks than comparable domestic activities because the
investment and commercial climate is influenced by restrictive economic
policies and political uncertainties.

RAW MATERIALS

Raw materials essential to Johnson & Johnson's business are generally
readily available from multiple sources.





3
5

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

Johnson & Johnson has made a practice of obtaining patent protection on
its products and processes where possible. Johnson & Johnson owns or is
licensed under a number of patents relating to its products and manufacturing
processes, which in the aggregate are believed to be of material importance in
the operation of its business. However, it is believed that no single patent
or related group of patents is material in relation to Johnson & Johnson as a
whole.

Johnson & Johnson has made a practice of selling its products under
trademarks and of obtaining protection for these trademarks by all available
means. Johnson & Johnson's major trademarks are protected by registration in
the United States and other countries where its products are marketed. Johnson
& Johnson considers these trademarks in the aggregate to be of material
importance in the operation of its business.

SEASONALITY

Worldwide sales do not reflect any significant degree of seasonality;
however spending has been heavier in the fourth quarter of each year than in
other quarters. This reflects increased spending decisions, principally for
advertising and research grants.

COMPETITION

In each of its segments, Johnson & Johnson companies compete with
companies both large and small, located in the United States and abroad.
Competition is strong in all segments without regard to the number and size of
the competing companies involved. Competition in research, involving the
development of new products and processes and the improvement of existing
products and processes, is particularly significant and results from time to
time in product and process obsolescence. The development of new and improved
products is important to Johnson & Johnson's success in all areas of its
business. This competitive environment requires substantial investments in
continuing research and in multiple sales forces. In addition, the winning and
retention of customer acceptance of Johnson & Johnson's consumer products
involve heavy expenditures for advertising, promotion and selling.

RESEARCH

Research activities are important to all segments of Johnson & Johnson's
business. Major research facilities are located not only in the United States
but also in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Switzerland, the United Kingdom
and Germany. The costs of Johnson & Johnson's worldwide research activities
relating to the development of new products, the improvement of existing
products, technical support of products and compliance with governmental
regulations for the protection of the consumer amounted to $1,182; $1,127 and
$980 million for fiscal years 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. These costs
are charged directly to income in the year in which incurred. All research was
sponsored by Johnson & Johnson.

ENVIRONMENT

During the past year Johnson & Johnson was subject to a variety of Federal,
state and local environmental protection measures. Johnson & Johnson believes
that its operations comply in all material respects with applicable
environmental laws and regulations. Johnson & Johnson's compliance with these
requirements did not and is not expected to have a material effect upon its
capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

REGULATION

Most of Johnson & Johnson's business is subject to varying degrees of
governmental regulation in the countries in which operations are conducted, and
the general trend is toward regulation of increasing stringency. In the United
States, the drug, device, diagnostics and cosmetic industries have long been
subject to regulation by various federal, state and local agencies, primarily
as to product safety, efficacy, advertising and labeling. The exercise of
broad regulatory powers by the Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA")
continues to result in increases in the amounts of time, testing and
documentation required for FDA clearance of new drugs and devices and a
corresponding increase in the expense of product introduction. In addition,
reapproval and reporting requirements with respect to broad classes of medical
devices and diagnostics may result in an increase in the expense required to
maintain some existing products on the market. Similar trends toward product
and process regulation are also evident in a number of major countries outside
of the United States, especially in the European Economic Community where
efforts are continuing to harmonize the internal regulatory systems.

The costs of human health care have been and continue to be a subject of
study and investigation by governmental agencies and legislative bodies in the
United States and other countries; most recently in the United States by the
Administration's health reform task force. In the United States, attention has
been focused on drug prices and profits and programs to encourage doctors to
write prescriptions that can or must be filled with generic substitutes rather
than with drugs bearing a specified trademark. It is likely that increased
attention will be paid to drug pricing and appropriate drug utilization. For
example, the 1990 Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act included a provision
requiring pharmaceutical companies to rebate to states a portion of the
revenues from pharmaceutical products dispensed to state Medicaid recipients.
The Veterans Health Care Act of 1992 granted state and local facilities
receiving Public Health Service Funds the right to purchase drugs at Medicaid
prices. The same Act mandated discount prices for drug sales to the Department
of Veterans Affairs and other Federal Supply Schedule purchasers.

Further, the Federal government has established a diagnosis related
group ("DRG") payment system for certain institutional services provided under
Medicare or Medicaid. The DRG system entitles an institution to a fixed amount
(based on discharge diagnosis) for operating costs incurred in treatment of
each Medicare or Medicaid beneficiary. Under prior law, payments for such
services had been predicated almost entirely on reimbursement of the allowable
historical costs of the individual hospital or health care facility providing
the services. The DRG payment system has resulted in increased incentives for
health care facilities to limit or control expenditures for many of the
products sold by Johnson & Johnson. Johnson & Johnson encounters regulations
and legislation similar to the foregoing in most of the countries where it does
business.

The regulatory agencies under whose purview Johnson & Johnson operates
have administrative powers that may subject Johnson & Johnson to such actions
as product recalls, seizure of products and other civil and criminal sanctions.
In some cases Johnson & Johnson may deem it advisable to initiate product
recalls voluntarily.

Item 2. PROPERTIES

Johnson & Johnson and its worldwide subsidiaries operate 163 manufacturing
facilities occupying approximately 15 million square feet of floor space.

The manufacturing facilities are used by the industry segments of Johnson
& Johnson's business approximately as follows:

Square Feet
Segment (in thousands)
------- --------------

Consumer...................................... 6,223
Pharmaceutical................................ 2,730
Professional.................................. 6,583
------
Worldwide total......................... 15,536
======


Within the United States, 12 facilities are used by the Consumer segment,
8 by the Pharmaceutical segment and 46 by the Professional segment. Johnson &
Johnson's manufacturing operations outside the United States are often
conducted in facilities which serve more than one segment of the business.

The locations of the manufacturing facilities by major geographic areas of
the world are as follows:

Number of Square Feet
Geographic Area Facilities (in thousands)
--------------- ---------- --------------

United States....................... 61 7,605
Europe.............................. 43 3,572
Western Hemisphere excluding U.S.A.. 20 2,345
Africa, Asia and Pacific............ 39 2,014
--- ------
Worldwide total............... 163 15,536
=== ======

In addition to the manufacturing facilities discussed above, Johnson &
Johnson maintains numerous office and warehouse facilities throughout the
world. Research facilities are also discussed under "Business--Research."

Johnson & Johnson generally seeks to own its manufacturing facilities,
although some, principally in locations abroad, are leased. Office and
warehouse facilities are often leased.

Johnson & Johnson's properties are maintained in good operating condition
and repair and are well utilized.

For information regarding lease obligations see Note 9 under "Johnson &
Johnson and Subsidiaries--Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" on page
34 of Johnson & Johnson's Annual Report to Stockholders for fiscal year 1993.
Segment information on additions to Johnson & Johnson's property, plant and
equipment is contained on page 41 of Johnson & Johnson's Annual Report to
Stockholders for fiscal year 1993.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The information set forth in Note 19 "Pending Legal Proceedings" on page
39 of Johnson & Johnson's Annual Report to Stockholders for fiscal year 1993 is
incorporated herein by reference.

The Company or its subsidiaries are parties to a number of administrative
and judicial environmental proceedings, including proceedings brought under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, commonly
known as Superfund, and comparable state laws. The primary relief sought in
these proceedings is the cost of past and future remediation. While it is not
feasible to predict or determine the outcome of these proceedings, in the
opinion of the Company, such proceedings should not ultimately result in any
liability which would have a material adverse effect on the operations or
financal position of the Company.


Item 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

The following estimated useful lives have been used as a basis for the
calculation of depreciation on the significant portions of the respective
classes of assets:




Years
-----------

Land improvements...................................... 5 to 40

Buildings and building equipment....................... 10 to 50

Machinery and equipment................................ 3 to 15

Furniture and fixtures................................. 5 to 12




The cost of improvements to leased properties is written off over the
terms of the respective leases or useful lives, whichever is shorter.

The cost of maintenance, repairs, and renewals is charged against income
in the year in which incurred, while the cost of betterments and replacements
is capitalized by charges to the respective asset accounts.

Upon retirement or other disposal of fixed assets, the cost and related
amount of accumulated depreciation or amortization are eliminated from the
asset and reserve accounts respectively. The difference, if any, between the
net asset value and the proceeds is adjusted to income. The cost of assets
still in use which have been fully depreciated is eliminated from the asset and
related reserve accounts.
