NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of
results for a full year.

A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is
presented on page 9 and 20 (not shown) of its 1999 Annual Report
to Shareholders.  Users of financial information produced for
interim periods are encouraged to refer to the footnotes
contained in the Annual Report to Shareholders when reviewing
interim financial results.  There has been no material change in
the accounting policies followed by the Company during the
quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2000.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim
consolidated condensed financial statements contain all
adjustments necessary to present fairly Chase General
Corporation's financial position as of March 31, 2000 and June
30, 1999, the results of its operations for the nine months and
three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, and its cash flows
for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.

            CHASE GENERAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
               CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


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.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999

Sales:
The Company had no unusual transactions for the nine months ended
March 31, 2000.  The Company realized a gross profit margin of
23.39% for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to
22.95% for the same period ended a year ago.  Consolidated net
sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 of $1,881,294,
were 7% above the $1,753,469 in 1999's first nine months.  The
2000 growth in sales was from the "Cherry Mash" product.  No
major customers were lost during this nine month period.

Expenses:
Selling, general and administrative expenses were 17.7% of sales
in the nine month period ended March 31, 2000 compared to 17.8%
in the first nine months of 1999.  Interest expense continues to
decrease because of debt retirement.

Inventories at March 31, 1999 were $7,300 higher than at June 30,
1999 due to increased non-seasonal sales orders from a major
customer.  Accounts payable are $37,000 higher than at June 30,
1999 due to better payment terms from vendors.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999

Sales:
The Company's net sales increased 19% over net sales for the
three months ended March 31, 1999.  This three month period is
normally the Company's slowest season.  However, due to new sales
from a major customer, sales were significantly higher for the
March 2000 quarter.
