NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - The accompanying interim financial statements and related
notes should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements of Johnson & Johnson and Subsidiaries (the "Company")
and related notes as contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995. The interim financial
statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of
management for a fair presentation of such statements. Earnings
per share were calculated on the basis of the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable
period. Earnings per share figures and shares outstanding reflect
the two-for-one stock split effective during the second quarter of
1996. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform
with current year presentation.

NOTE 2 - INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rates for 1996 and 1995 are as follows:
1996 1995
First Quarter 29.7% 29.0%
Second Quarter 29.3 29.0
First Half 29.5 29.0


The effective income tax rates for the first half of 1996 and 1995
are 29.5% and 29.0%, respectively, as compared to the U.S. federal
statutory rate of 35%. The difference from the statutory rate is
primarily the result of domestic subsidiaries operating in Puerto
Rico under a grant for tax relief expiring on December 31, 2007 and
the result of subsidiaries manufacturing in Ireland under an
incentive tax rate expiring on December 31, 2010. The increase in
the 1996 worldwide effective tax rate was primarily due to an
increase in income subject to tax in the U.S. The Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993 includes a change in the tax code which
will reduce the benefit the Company receives from its operations in
Puerto Rico by 60% gradually over a five year period.

NOTE 6 - MERGER

On February 23, 1996, Johnson & Johnson and Cordis Corporation
completed the previously announced merger between the two
companies. The number of Johnson & Johnson shares issued in the
merger for each Cordis share is the result of dividing $109 by the
average of the closing prices per Johnson & Johnson share for the
10 trading days prior to the closing of the merger. This resulted
in an exchange ratio of 1.1292 shares of Johnson & Johnson stock
for each share of Cordis stock. The merger has a total value, net
of cash, of approximately $1.8 billion. Cordis had approximately
17.6 million shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis. The
merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, however,
prior period financial statements have not been restated as the
effect of reflecting data relating to this merger would not
materially affect previously issued financial statements.
Cordis is a leader in angiography and angioplasty (balloon
catheters). The combination of Cordis and Johnson & Johnson's
interventional cardiology business is an important strategic step
for both companies to meet the challenge of providing for customer
needs in the fast changing healthcare industry.

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SALES AND EARNINGS
Consolidated sales for the first six months of 1996 of $10,716
million exceeded sales of $9,258 million for the first six months
of 1995 by 15.7%. The strength of the U.S. dollar relative to the
foreign currencies decreased sales for the first six months of 1996
by 1.7%. The sales increase of 17.4% due to operations included
a positive price change effect of .4%. Consolidated net earnings
for the first six months of 1996 were $1,581 million, compared with
net earnings of $1,315 million for the first six months of 1995.
Earnings per share for the first six months of 1996 were $1.19,
compared with $1.02 for the same period a year ago. Net earnings
and earnings per share rose 20.2% and 16.7%, respectively.
Consolidated sales for the second quarter of 1996 were $5,382
million, an increase of 13.0% over 1995 second quarter sales of
$4,762 million. The effect of the stronger U.S. dollar relative to
foreign currencies decreased second quarter sales by 3.1%, while
price changes contributed .2%. Consolidated net earnings for the
second quarter of 1996 were $791 million, compared with $661
million for the same period a year ago, an increase of 19.7%.
Earnings per share for the second quarter of 1996 rose 17.6% to
$.60, compared with $.51 in the 1995 period.
Domestic sales for the first six months of 1996 were $5,289
million, an increase of 20.0% over 1995 domestic sales of $4,406
million for the same period a year ago. Sales by international
subsidiaries were $5,427 million for the first six months of 1996
compared with $4,852 million for the same period a year ago, an
increase of 11.9%. Excluding the impact of the stronger value of
the dollar, international sales increased by 15.1%.
- - 11 -
Worldwide consumer sales of $1.5 billion for the second quarter
represented an increase of 5.1%. Growth was led by the NEUTROGENA
line of adult skin and hair care products; PEPCID AC Acid
Controller, a product of Johnson & Johnson o Merck Consumer
Pharmaceuticals Co.; and the TYLENOL line of acetaminophen-based
analgesic and cold products.
On July 3, the Company received marketing clearance from the Food
and Drug Administration for NICOTROL, the first nicotine
transdermal patch to become available for sale directly to
consumers without a prescription. The decision to make NICOTROL
patches available without a prescription follows the FDA's
marketing clearance in March of this year for NICOTROL NS, a
unique prescription nicotine nasal spray designed to reduce
nicotine withdrawal symptoms and help smokers quit, when used as
part of a comprehensive smoking cessation program.
Another new consumer product recently approved by the Food and
Drug Administration is MONISTAT 3. This three-day miconazole
nitrate treatment, which cures most vaginal yeast infections, will
offer a shorter course of treatment. MONISTAT continues to be the
number one doctor-recommended cure. Currently, vaginal yeast
infections affect more than 13 million women each year in the
United States. Three quarters of women will experience at least
one vaginal yeast infection during their lifetime.
Worldwide pharmaceutical sales of $1.8 billion for the quarter
increased 11.6%, with domestic sales growing 24.9%. Leading the
increase in pharmaceutical sales growth were RISPERDAL, an
antipsychotic medication; ULTRAM, a centrally acting prescription
pain reliever; PROCRIT, for the treatment of anemia; and SPORANOX,
a broad spectrum antifungal medication. SPORANOX, recently

- 12 -
approved for a new indication, onychomycosis, is the first advance
in treating fungal nail disease in three decades. Since its launch
for that indication last fall, SPORANOX has generated excellent
positive feedback from primary care physicians, dermatologists and
podiatrists.

Worldwide sales of $2.0 billion in the Professional segment
represented an increase of 21.3% over the second quarter in 1995.
Strong sales growth benefited from the merger with Cordis as well
as the continuing, rapid professional acceptance of the PALMAZ-
SCHATZ Coronary Stent, due to its efficacy in reducing the
incidence of recurring blockage of coronary arteries following
balloon angioplasty. LifeScan's blood glucose monitoring systems,
Vistakon's ACUVUE disposable contact lenses, Johnson & Johnson
Professional's orthopaedic implants, and Ethicon Endo-Surgery's
minimally invasive surgical instruments continued to deliver solid
performance.

Average shares of common stock outstanding in the first half of
1996 were 1.3 billion, an increase of 43.8 million over the prior
year, due to the 37.2 million shares issued for the Cordis merger
in 1996 and the balance for various acquisitions using common stock
during 1995. Earnings per share figures and shares outstanding
reflect the two-for-one stock split effective during the second
quarter of 1996.




-13-
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net debt (borrowings net of cash and current marketable
securities) as of June 30, 1996 was 3.8% of net capital
(stockholders' equity and net debt) compared with 10.5% at the end
of 1995. Net debt decreased by $661 million during the first six
months of 1996 to $403 million at June 30, 1996. Total debt
represented 18.7% of total capital (stockholders' equity and total
borrowings) at quarter end, compared with 21.2% at the end of 1995.

Additions to property, plant and equipment were $495 million for
the first six months of 1996, compared with $472 million for the
same period in 1995.

On July 15, 1996, the Board of Directors approved a regular
quarterly dividend of 19 cents per share payable on September 10,
1996 to shareholders of record as of August 20, 1996.
