             CHASE GENERAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
       NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited and
audited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all
adjustments necessary to present fairly Chase General
Corporation's financial position as of March 31, 1996 and June
30, 1995, the results of its operations for the nine months and
three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, and its cash flows
for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.

While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are
adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested
that these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and the notes included
in the Company's annual report for June 30, 1995, Form 10-K.  All
adjustments made during the period ended March 31, 1996 were of a
normal recurring nature.


NOTE 2 - LOSS PER SHARE

The loss per share was computed on the weighted average of
outstanding common shares during the years as follows:

GENERAL

Chase General and its wholly-owned subsidiary are engaged in the
manufacture of confectionery products which are sold primarily to
wholesale houses, grocery accounts, vendors, and repackers.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 1996, the Company has a $69,000 commitment for
capitalized expenditures.  Cash decreased $52,379 during the
current nine month period.  Working capital increased
approximately $279,000 for the nine month period, as a result of
the Corporate officers successfully negotiating a seven year
extension with the Series B noteholders which allowed for the
remaining note balance of $252,656 to be classified as long-term
liabilities.

The officers of the Corporation and legal counsel continue to
discuss liquidity and capital resource options to resolve the $5
million cumulative preferred stock dividends in arrears.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Nine Months ended March 31, 1996

The Company had no unusual transactions for the nine months ended
March 31, 1996.  The Company realized a gross profit percentage
of 23.97% and 23.71% for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.  The gross profit increased as a result of
improved labor costs.  Net sales increased $78,800 over the same
period a year ago.

Selling expenses are $17,000 higher than the same period a year
ago as a result of more aggressive brokerage activity.  General
and administrative expenses  are $13,000 higher than same period
a year ago as a result of depreciation for upgrading office
equipment and higher salaries.  Interest expense continues to
decrease from reduced debt outstanding.

Inventories at March 31, 1996 are $16,000 higher than at June 30,
1995 as a result of anticipated orders for spring product lines.

              CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Three months ended March 31, 1996

Net sales increased $28,000 over the same period a year ago. 
However gross profit was (8.36)% as compared to 1.60% for the
same period ended a year ago.  This three month period is
normally the Company's slowest season.  Sales are usually weak
and plant maintenance is performed in anticipation of the next
six months increased activity.  In addition, the Company had a
return of product which also caused a negative gross profit on
sales.

Selling expense increased $8,000 over the same period a year ago
from increased promotion and advertising costs.  General and
administrative expense increased $9,500 over the same period a
year ago as a result of depreciation for upgrading office
equipment.
