A.   Consolidated Financial Statement:

           The  statement of assets and  liabilities  including  the schedule of
tax-exempt  securities  as of December 31, 1995,  and the related  statements of
operations,  changes in new assets, and supplementary  information,  for the six
months  ending  December 31, 1995,  have been  prepared by the Company,  without
audit. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (which include only normal
reocurring  adjustments)  necessary to present fairly the financial  position at
December 31, 1995 and all periods presented have been made.

B.   General:

            On January 10, 1984,  BDI  Investment  Corporation  (the  "Company")
filed a  Registration  Statement  on Form N-2 with the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission in order to register  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940 as a
closed-end diversified management investment company.

C.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

           Investments:

            The  investment  portfolio  consists  primarily of tax-exempt  bonds
which are valued at the last bid price on the last business day of the quarter.

           Income Recognition:

            Security  transactions  are  recorded  on the trade  date.  Interest
income is accrued and recorded based upon settlement dates.

           Taxes:

            The Company has  qualified as a Regulated  Investment  Company under
certain  provisions of the Internal  Revenue Code beginning with the fiscal year
starting July 1, 1984. Under such provisions, the Company will not be subject to
federal  income  tax  on  income  which  it  receives  and  distributes  to  its
shareholders,  provided that it distributes  substantially all such income. As a
Regulated Investment Company, the Company may "pass through" to its shareholders
the character of the income which it receives.
