           INDEPENDENT INSURANCE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

          NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited, consolidated,
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position
as of September 30, 1994 and December 31, 1993, the results of operations for he
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993 and cash flows
for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993.



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

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant
factors affecting the accompanying financial statements.  It has been the
Company's experience that undue weight cannot be given to the results of a
single period, as such results are not necessarily indicative of that for an
entire year.

Independent's net income from continuing operations (exclusive of realized
investment gains) improved for the third consecutive quarter, and totaled
$2.9 million, or $.22 per share.  This compares with $2.0 million or $.15
per share in the third quarter of 1993.  During the quarter the Company
concluded the introduction of the previously mentioned Loss of Time Policy,
completed the discontinuation of its group line of business and continued
on schedule with the winddown of non-Home Service property/casualty lines.

Net income (including realized investment gains) for the current quarter
was $3.3 million or $.25 per share, compared with $3.5 million of $.27
per share in the year-ago quarter.  For the first nine months of 1994, net
income totaled $7.0 million of $.53 per share.  This compares with a net loss
of $(32.1) million or $(2.44) per share through September of 1993, which 
included the impact of restructure charges, discontinued operations and the 
cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles required in the industry.
The accompanying tables also reflect reduced revenues and expenses associated
with exiting non-Home Service lines of business in all companies, which will
continue through 1994.

While management recognizes the improving trend in net income from continuing
operations, it remains committed to producing a higher level of results.  The 
current level of results has been influenced by three areas in particular.
Investment income is lower, although it has gradually improved with each
quarter in 1994.  The industry in general is experiencing reduced investment 
income due to lower yields.  Secondly, the stepped-up activity for punitive
damage awards in Alabama continues to be a concern for any industry operating
there.  Though management believes suits brought against Independent in that
state are for the most part frivolous, we continue with our conservative
position of providing ample reserves.  As a result, this quarter we increased
our estimate for losses by $3.7 million pretax.  Thirdly, Home Service premiums
have grown 2% over the comparable amount a year ago.  This is below our
desired goal, and management is introducing new products and special
marketing campaigns aimed at improving this area of performance.

The quality of assets continues at our traditionally high standards.  Assets
totaled $1.39 billion at September 30, down from $1.49 billion a year ago.
The decrease is primarily related to the runoff of non-Home Service lines of
property/casualty business, coupled with the reduction in the carrying value
of our debt security investments in accordance with the required adoption of
a new accounting standard (SFAS 115) at year-end 1993.

Under the standard, the Company carries most of its debt securities at market
value.  These securities are then permitted to be traded in order to properly
manage our investment portfolios, thereby taking advantage of market 
opportunities.  At year-end 1993, we increased book value per share by $1.32
due to high market values associated with the twenty-year low interest rates.
The recent rise in interest rates has resulted in a decreased market value
of these securities.  As a result, compared with year-end 1993 shareholders'
equity has been reduced $41.2 million, lowering book value per share by $3.13.
The standard did not equitably permit valuing related liabilities at market
value.  If it had, the resulting decrease in liabilities would have more than
offset the reduced carrying value of its debt securities.

Management maintains a significant ownership position in the Company and as a
result, has interests parallel to other shareholders.  We are aware of the
recent decline in the price of the Company's shares.  We are unaware of any 
news not regularly reported to our shareholders which would result in this
decrease.  It is believed that continued improvement in corporate performance
should provide for improved stock performance as well.

As previously reported, a regular quarterly dividend of 6 cents per share
on both voting and nonvoting common stock is payable December 1, 1994, to
shareholders of record on November 10, 1994.
