(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1:	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
 statement of results for the interim periods.

The results of operations for the six month period ended December 31, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full 
year.

NOTE 2:	CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and on deposit in banks and
securities with a maturity date not in excess of three months.  The carrying
amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short
maturity of such investments.

NOTE 3:	FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Due to short term nature of accounts receivable and accounts payable 
their carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

NOTE 4:	INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or 
market.  Components of cost include materials, direct labor and plant 
overhead.

As there is no segregation of inventories as to raw materials, work in 
progress and finished goods for interim reporting periods (this information
is available at year end when physical inventories are taken and recorded), 
estimates have been made for the interim period.

(UNAUDITED)


NOTE 5:	USE OF ESTIMATES

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions
regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  Such 
estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date
of the financial statements.  Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may
differ from estimated amounts.

NOTE 6:	PLANT, PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.  Allowance for depreciation 
and amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful
lives of three to ten years for machinery and equipment, ten years for 
furniture and fixtures, and twenty years for building and improvements.

In 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
("SFAS") 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for 
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of ("SFAS 121").  This standard specifies 
when assets should be reviewed for impairment, how to determine if an asset is
impaired how to measure an impairment loss, and what disclosures are necessary
in the financial statements.  The effect of adopting SFAS 121 is not considered
significant.

NOTE 7:	NET INCOME PER SHARE

Net income per share for the three months ended December 31, 1997 is based
upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding.  For the periods 
ended December 31, 1997, and December 31, 1996, stock options have not been
considered as the effect would have been antidilutive.  The number of shares 
used in the computation of net income per share was:  1,339,531 in 1997 and 
in 1996.

THE DEWEY ELECTRONICS CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis contains certain forward-looking 
statements that should be read in conjunction with the Company's report 
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 (including the section 
captioned "Current Business environment").  Reference is made generally to 
the information contained in the Form 10-K.

Six months ended December 31, 1997 vs. 1996

Revenues for the first six months of this fiscal year were $1,330,416, a 
decrease  of $670,766 compared to last year's revenues for the same period.
Electronic product revenues decreased by $166,031 (from $1,245,354 last year
to $1,079,323 this year).  Leisure product revenues decreased by $504,735 
(from $755,828 last year to $251,093 this year).

In the electronic product segment, 46% of revenues were derived from a 
contract  with the U.S. Army for the production of tactical generator sets 
and 54% of revenues were derived from various orders which are more limited 
in scope and duration and were generally for replacement parts for 
previously supplied Department of Defense equipment and other projects 
performed as a subcontractor.  A large part of such other revenues continue
to be attributable to the Company's Pitometer Log Division, which 
manufactures speed and distance measuring instrumentation for the U.S. Navy.

The contract with the U.S. Army for the production of tactical generator sets
initially funded $1 million for first article test units with estimated 
production quantities for each of the following five years.  The first such 
production order in the amount of $5 million was received in May 1997 and 
was increased approximately 11% in July 1997.  The first article test units 
have been delivered to the U.S. Army and the Company is awaiting final 
acceptance of these units by the Army before beginning production stages. 
Final acceptance is expected to be received by the beginning of March 1998.
The contract schedule had included production stages to begin during this 
second fiscal quarter.

In the first six months of last year, the tactical generator set project 
accounted for 22% of electronic product revenues.  The U.S. Navy's MK48 ADCAP
torpedo program, which in prior years had provided most of such revenues, 
accounted for 33%.  The remaining 45% of electronic product revenues was 
derived from various orders, generally for replacement parts for previously 
supplied Department of Defense equipment.

As of December 31, 1997, the aggregate value of the Company's backlog of
 electronic products not previously recorded as revenues was approximately 
$4 million, attributable to the tactical generator set contract.  
Approximately one half of this backlog should be recognized as revenues 
during the 1998 fiscal year.

7

As of December 31, 1996, the aggregate value of the Company's backlog of
electronic products not previously recorded as revenues was approximately 
$1 million.  Most of this backlog was accounted for by the tactical generator
set contract and was recorded as revenues during the 1997 fiscal year.

In the leisure and recreation segment, revenues decreased by $504,735 when
compared to the same six month period last year.  The major portion of 
revenues from this segment of business have been traditionally recorded 
during the second quarter.  Last year, sales of snowmaking machines began in
the first quarter and continued with a higher sales level during the second 
quarter than experienced in recent years.  This year, no machine sales were 
made during the first quarter and the second quarter sales were lower than 
last year.  General market conditions are weaker as a result of last year's 
overall poor season for domestic ski areas.  Foreign markets continue to 
be very competitive, however, the sales of replacement parts in these 
areas remains level with prior years.

Overall, the Company experienced an operating loss for the six month period 
of $61,952 compared to an operating loss of $89,999 last year.  Costs in 
overhead and administrative expenses are continuing to be reduced to help 
offset lower revenues.  The Company expects that these costs will continue 
to be reduced.

Three Months Ended December 31, 1997 vs 1996

Revenues for the second quarter this year were $627,963 compared to 
$1,046,995 last year.  The decrease of $419,032 resulted from lower revenues 
in the electronic segment of $159,329 and lower sales in the leisure and 
recreation segment of $259,703 which were discussed above.

The operating loss for the second quarter this year was $99,063 and the 
operating loss for the same period last year was $61,436.

See the discussion of six-month results above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources at December 31, 1997

The Company's working capital as of December 31, 1997 was $1,983,625. 
 This amount reflects an increase of $475,551 when compared to working
 capital at June 30, 1997 of $1,508,074.

Working capital increased as a result of an increase in contract costs and 
related estimated profits in excess of applicable billings in the amount of 
$628,290, a reduction in the current portion of long term debt of $297,194 
and an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $15,265.

These increases in working capital were partially offset by an increase in 
trade accounts payable and accrued expenses of $62,232, a reduction in 
accounts receivable of $67,893, a reduction in inventories of $42,542 and 
a reduction in cash balances of $292,532.

The Company expended $15,370 for plant, property and equipment during the 
six month period.  Last year, capital expenditures amounted to $14,737.

The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures as of 
December 31, 1997.

The current portion of long term debt was reduced as a result of new 
borrowing arrangements which the Company entered into with Sovereign Bank 
(the 'Bank') on September 18, 1997.  Under this new agreement:

- -	The Company borrowed $2,300,000 at an interest rate of 8.25% per annum,
 repayable in monthly installments of $19,598 with a final maturity in year 
2002, evidenced by delivery of a mortgage note payable to the Bank (the 
"Mortgage Note").

- -	The Bank agreed to provide up to an additional $500,000 under a line-of-
credit agreement, to be evidenced by promissory notes bearing interest at a 
rate 3/4 of 1% over prime that will become due and payable on October 31, 
1998.  In the Bank's discretion, this line of credit may be renewed for a 
further period or periods.

The Mortgage Note is secured by a first mortgage on all of the Company's land 
and its building.  Borrowings under the line-of-credit arrangement are secured 
by a first lien on all of the Company's machinery, equipment other personal 
property.

Approximately $1,900,000 of the proceeds from the issuance of the Mortgage 
Note was applied to the prepayment in full of the outstanding balances due 
from the Company to Fleet Bank under its secured term loan agreement with 
the Company and to New Jersey Economic Development Authority under a 
mortgage note.  The interest rate on the prepaid indebtedness was 9% per 
annum.  The prepaid indebtedness was secured by liens on virtually all of 
the Company's real and personal property.  Under the former term loan 
agreement, the Company was subject to numerous affirmative and negative 
covenants containing working capital, net worth and other financial criteria.
The new borrowing arrangements with the Bank contain no such financial 
covenants.

The Company continues to meet its short term liquidity needs through a 
combination of progress payments on government contracts (based on costs 
incurred) and billings at the time of delivery of products.

On a long term basis, the Company's liquidity will be dependent on the ability
to maintain borrowing arrangements with its new lender Sovereign Bank or other 
lenders.
