(NOTE 5)  -  The provision for income taxes consists solely of
state and local taxes. The provision for income taxes has been reduced
by approximately $6,500 during the nine months ended August 31, 1996
and $10,300 during the nine months ended August 31, 1995 which
represents the benefit of the federal net operating loss 
carryforward for which a valuation reserve had been previously
provided.

WALKER INTERNATIONAL INDUSTRIES, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Financial Condition and Liquidity


     The Company's liquidity (current assets minus current
liabilities) increased by $60,995 to $856,161 at August 31, 1996, as
compared to $795,166 at November 30, 1995. Cash used by operating
activities amounted to $32,902. This resulted primarily from a
decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $53,215, an
increase in investment in trading securities of $23,974, and a
decrease in customer deposits of $10,460, offset in part by net income
of $43,535 and depreciation of $26,223. 

     The Company deems its present facilities and equipment to be
adequate for its immediate needs and it has no material commitments
for capital expenditures. The Company believes its present liquidity
is adequate for its current and long-term needs. 

Results of Operations

     Total sales for the nine months ended August 31, 1996 (the
"Current Period") decreased to $1,116,606 as compared to sales of
$1,135,823 in the nine months ended August 31, 1995. A sales volume
decrease in the Department Store subsidiary was offset in part by
volume increases at Kelly Color. Sales for the three months ended
August 31, 1996 (the "Current Quarter") decreased to $252,527 as
compared to $267,491 in the quarter ended August 31, 1995,
due to a decrease in Kelly Color sales volume.    

     In the Current Period, cost of sales as a percentage of sales
("COS") were 48.8%, slightly lower than the COS of 49.6% in the 1995
comparable period. In the Current Quarter, COS was 61.2% as compared
to 64.7% in the 1995 comparable period. These decreases were
primarily due to maintenance of labor costs and improved operating
efficiencies. Costs were higher in the Current Quarter as compared to
the Current Period due to the absence of more profitable seasonal
sales in the Department Store subsidiary that occur only in the fiscal
quarter ended February 28th. This trend occurred in the prior fiscal
year as well. 

     In the Current Period, selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of sales were 51.1% as compared to 51.2% in
the 1995 comparable periods. In the Current Quarter, selling, general
and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 48.2% as
compared to 43.9% in the 1995 comparable quarter. This was due to
slightly higher fixed costs and reduced cost absorption resulting from
lower sales. 

     In the Current Period, the Company had net income after income
taxes and before cumulative effect of accounting change of $43,535 as
compared to $50,942 in the prior year's comparable period, primarily
due to sales volume decreases. In the Current Quarter, the
Company incurred a net loss of $11,596 as compared to a profit of
$6,712 in the 1995 comparable quarter, primarily for reasons already
mentioned. Provision for income taxes in the Current Period consists
of state and local taxes on Department Store earnings. The provision
for income taxes has been reduced by approximately $6,500 in the
Current Period and $10,300 in last year's comparable period which
represents the benefit of the federal net operating loss carryforward
for which a valuation reserve had been previously provided. In the
Current Period, earnings per share were $.15 after income taxes and
before cumulative effect of accounting change, as compared to $.17 in
the 1995 comparable Period. There was a loss per share of $.04
in the Current Quarter, as compared to a profit of $.02 in last year's
comparable quarter. 

     On December 1, 1994, the Company adopted FASB Statement No. 115
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."
Gross unrealized losses on held-to-maturity securities of $10,281 are
reflected as the cumulative effect of accounting change in the 1995
Period.
