                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


     Administrative Committee
     UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan

     We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available
     for plan benefits of the UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the
     "Plan") as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements
     of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years
     then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
     Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
     these financial statements 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 provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
     fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan
     benefits of the Plan at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in
     its net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended,
     in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

     Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
     financial statements taken as a whole.  The accompanying supplemental
     schedules of assets held for investment purposes at December 31, 1993
     and the schedule of reportable transactions for the year then ended,
     are presented for purposes of complying with the Department of Labor's
     Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
     Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and are not a required part of
     the financial statements.  The supplemental schedules have been
     subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the 1993
     financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
     material respects in relation to the 1993 financial statements taken
     as a whole.

                       UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan
                         Notes to Financial Statements 

     1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Investments in the Fidelity Magellan Fund, Fidelity Growth & Income
     Fund, Fidelity Managed Income Portfolio and Fidelity Retirement
     Government Money Market Fund are reported at current redemption value. 
     The United Industrial Corporation Common Stock is reported at market
     value, based on published market prices.

     Rollover contributions represent transfers from other qualified
     retirement plans.

     Administrative expenses associated with the Plan, including the amount
     paid to Fidelity Management Trust Co. for acting as custodian of the
     investments of the Plan, were paid by the Company in 1993 and 1992.

     2.  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

     The UIC 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") is a defined
     contribution plan.  The purpose of the Plan is to encourage employees
     to save regularly and to provide additional funds upon retirement. 
     All contributions are made by employees through payroll deductions and
     submitted to Fidelity Management Trust Company Cash Reserve Fund, then
     subsequently deposited in the investment option account(s) selected by
     the employee.  United Industrial Corporation (the "Company") is the
     named fiduciary which controls and manages the operations of the Plan
     and acts as Administrator.

     All employees aged 21 or more who have completed six months of
     continuous employment and worked over 1000 hours with the Company
     (including its participating subsidiaries) are eligible to participate
     in the Plan.  Participating employees contribute to the Plan through
     payroll deductions in amounts ranging from 2% to 15% of their earnings
     up to a limit of $8,994 and $8,728 for 1993 and 1992, respectively. 
     Contributions to the Plan are invested in the available investment
     options in accordance with the participants' elections.  All
     contributions to the Plan are immediately vested.

     Effective January 1, 1992, the Fidelity Institutional Retirement
     Services Company became the Trustee for the Plan.  Under this
     arrangement the investment options available to the participants are
     the Fidelity Magellan Fund, Fidelity Managed Income Portfolio,
     Fidelity Retirement Government Money Market Fund, Fidelity Growth &
     Income Fund, and United Industrial Corporation Common Stock.

     2.  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

     Effective March 1, 1994, two additional investment options, Fidelity
     Investment Grade Bond Fund and Fidelity Contrafund, became available
     to participants.

     The Company has the right to terminate Plan at any time.  In the event
     of a termination, the participants accounts shall be distributed to
     them in cash or in property or in any combination of cash and
     property.

     Information about the Plan and the vesting and benefit provisions is
     contained in the Summary Plan Description of the UIC 401(k) Retirement
     Savings Plan.  Copies are available from the Human Resources
     Department of the Company.

        4.  INCOME TAX STATUS

     The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company,
     that the Plan is qualified and the trust established under the Plan is
     tax-exempt, under appropriate sections of the Internal Revenue Code. 
     The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. 
     However, the Plan Administrator believes that the Plan is currently
     designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable
     requirements of the Code.  Therefore, they believe that the Plan was
     qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial
     statement date.
