              ENVIRODYNE INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.               CHAPTER 11 REORGANIZATION PROCEEDINGS

On January 6, 1993, a group of bondholders filed an involuntary
petition for reorganization of Envirodyne Industries, Inc.  under
Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  On January 7, 1993 Viskase
Corporation, Viskase Sales Corporation, Viskase Holding
Corporation, Clear Shield National, Inc., Sandusky Plastics of
Delaware, Inc., Sandusky Plastics, Inc. and Envirodyne Finance
Company each filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division (the Bankruptcy
Court).  On December 17, 1993, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the
First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization as twice modified (Plan
of Reorganization) with respect to Envirodyne Industries, Inc.
(Envirodyne) and certain of its subsidiaries.  The Plan of
Reorganization was consummated and Envirodyne and certain of its
subsidiaries emerged from Chapter 11 on December 31, 1993
(Effective Date).  For accounting purposes, the Plan of
Reorganization was deemed to be effective as of December 31, 1993.

The Plan of Reorganization provided for the initial issuance of
approximately 13,500,000 shares of Envirodyne common stock,
warrants to purchase an additional 1,500,000 shares (subject to
adjustment) and $219,262,000 principal amount of 10-1/4% Senior
Notes Due 2001 (10-1/4% Notes).

Holders of allowed general unsecured claims of Envirodyne (as
opposed to subsidiaries of Envirodyne) became entitled to receive
32.28 shares of common stock for each $500 amount of their
prepetition claims, or a total of 8,070 shares of common stock,
representing .06% of the common stock initially issued pursuant to
the Plan of Reorganization.  These claims totaled approximately
$125,000.  If the allowed amount of general unsecured claims of
Envirodyne exceeds $125,000, for example upon the resolution of
disputed claims, additional shares of common stock will have to be
issued to the holders of allowed general unsecured claims of
Envirodyne in order to provide equitable allocation of value among
Envirodyne's unsecured creditors under the Plan of Reorganization.
 Such additional shares of common stock would be distributed with
respect to allowed general unsecured claims of Envirodyne as
follows: (i) approximately 2.58 additional shares per $500 in
claims in the event allowed general unsecured claims of Envirodyne
are between $125,000 and $25,000,000; (ii) approximately 5.61
additional shares per $500 in claims in the event allowed general
unsecured claims of Envirodyne are between $25,000,000 and
$50,000,000; (iii) approximately 9.22 additional shares per $500 in
claims in the event allowed general unsecured claims of Envirodyne
are between $50,000,000 and $75,000,000; and (iv) approximately
13.58 additional shares per $500 in claims in the event allowed
general unsecured claims of Envirodyne are between $75,000,000 and
$100,000,000.  Refer to Note 5 for a discussion of disputed claims
which, if determined adversely to Envirodyne, would result in the
issuance of common stock.

The Company accounted for the reorganization using the principles
of fresh start reporting in accordance with the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7,
"Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the
Bankruptcy Code." Accordingly, all assets and liabilities were
restated to reflect their reorganization value.  A reorganization
value of the Company's equity of $135,000,000 was based on the
consideration of many factors and various valuation methods,
including discounted cash flows, comparable multiples of earnings
and other applicable measurements and valuation techniques believed
by management and its financial advisors to be representative of
the Company's business and industry.  The excess of the
reorganization value over the fair value of net assets and
liabilities has been reported as excess reorganization value and is
being amortized over a fifteen-year period.


2. INVENTORIES

Inventories consisted of:

                              June 29,            December 29,
                                1995                 1994      
                             -----------         -------------

                             $125,754             $110,483
                             ========             ========

Approximately 52% of the inventories at June 29, 1995 were valued
at Last-In, First-Out (LIFO).  These LIFO values exceeded current
manufacturing cost by approximately $3.7 million at June 29, 1995.


3. DEBT OBLIGATIONS

On June 20, 1995, Envirodyne completed the sale of $160,000,000
aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes to certain
institutional investors in a private placement.  The senior secured
notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated June 20, 1995
(Indenture) and consist of (i) $151,500,000 of 12% Senior Secured
Notes due 2000 and (ii) $8,500,000 of Floating Rate Senior Secured
Notes due 2000 (collectively, the Senior Secured Notes). 
Envirodyne used the net proceeds of the offering primarily to (i)
repay the Company's $86,125,000 domestic term loan, (ii) repay the
$68,316,000 of obligations under the Company's domestic and foreign
revolving loans and (iii) pay transaction fees and expenses. 
Concurrently with the June 20, 1995 placement, Envirodyne entered
into a new $20,000,000 domestic revolving credit facility
(Revolving Credit Facility) and a new $28,000,000 letter of credit
facility (Letter of Credit Facility).  The Senior Secured Notes and
the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Letter
of Credit Facility are guaranteed by Envirodyne's significant
domestic subsidiaries and secured by a collateral pool (Collateral
Pool) comprised of: (i) all domestic accounts receivable (including
intercompany receivables) and inventory; (ii) all patents,
trademarks and other intellectual property (subject to non-
exclusive licensing agreements); (iii) substantially all domestic
fixed assets (other than assets subject to a lease agreement with
General Electric Capital Corporation); and (iv) a senior pledge of
100% of the capital stock of Envirodyne's significant domestic
subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of Viskase S.A.  Such
guarantees and security are shared by the holders of the Senior
Secured Notes and the holders of the obligations under the
Revolving Credit Facility on a pari passu basis pursuant to an
                               ---- -----
intercreditor agreement.  Pursuant to such intercreditor agreement,
the security interest of the holders of the obligations under the
Letter of Credit Facility has priority over all other liens on the
Collateral Pool.

The $151,500,000 tranche of Senior Secured Notes bears interest at
a rate of 12% per annum and the $8,500,000 tranche bears interest
at a rate equal to the six month London Interbank Offered Rate
(LIBOR) plus 575 basis points.  The initial interest rate on the
floating rate tranche was approximately 11.7%.  The interest rate
on the floating rate tranche is reset semi-annually on June 15 and
December 15.  Interest on the Senior Secured Notes is payable each
June 15 and December 15, commencing December 15, 1995. 

On June 15, 1999, $80,000,000 of the aggregate principal amount of
the Senior Secured Notes is subject to a mandatory redemption.  The
remaining principal amount outstanding will mature on June 15,
2000.

In the event the Company has Excess Cash Flow (as defined) in
excess of $5,000,000 in any fiscal year, beginning with fiscal
1995, Envirodyne will be required to make an offer to purchase
Senior Secured Notes together with any borrowed money obligations
outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, on a pro rata
basis, in an amount equal to the Excess Cash Flow at a purchase
price of 100% plus any accrued interest to the date of purchase.

The Senior Secured Notes are redeemable, in whole or from time to
time in part, at Envirodyne's option, at the greater of (i) the
outstanding principal amount or (ii) the present value of the
expected future cash flows from the Senior Secured Notes discounted
at a rate equal to the Treasury Note yield corresponding closest to
the remaining average life of the Senior Secured Notes at the time
of prepayment plus 100 basis points.

The Indenture contains covenants with respect to Envirodyne and its
subsidiaries limiting (subject to a number of important
qualifications), among other things, (i) the ability to pay
dividends or redeem or repurchase common stock, (ii) the incurrence
of indebtedness, (iii) the creation of liens, (iv) certain
affiliate transactions and (v) the ability to consolidate with or
merge into another entity and to dispose of assets.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the three month London Interbank Offered
Rate (LIBOR) on the first day of each calendar quarter plus 300
basis points.  The Revolving Credit Facility expires on June 20,
1998.

Envirodyne has entered into $50 million of interest rate protection
agreements that cap the Company's LIBOR interest component
(excludes spread) at an average rate of 6.50% until January 1997.
 The fair value of interest rate cap agreements is estimated by
obtaining quotes from banks.  At June 29, 1995, the carrying amount
and estimated fair value of interest rate cap agreements were
$868,000 and $163,000, respectively.

The Letter of Credit Facility expires on June 20, 1998.  Fees on
the outstanding amount of letters of credit are 2.0% per annum,
with an issuance fee of 0.5% on the face amount of the letter of
credit.  There is a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on the unused
portion of the Letter of Credit Facility plus an issuance fee.

Had the refinancing taken place at the beginning of 1995, the pro
forma Envirodyne consolidated statement of operations would have
been:

The pro forma information reflects the change in interest expense
and related tax effect due to the issuance of $160 million
principal amount of Senior Secured Notes and refinancing of the

The fair value of the Company's debt obligation (excluding capital
lease obligation) is estimated based upon the quoted market prices
for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to
the Company for the debt of the same remaining maturities.  At June
29, 1995, the carrying amount and estimated fair value of debt
obligations (excluding capital lease obligation) were $401,690 and
$348,741, respectively.

On December 28, 1990, Viskase and GECC entered into a sale and
leaseback transaction.  The sale and leaseback of assets included
the production and finishing equipment at Viskase's four domestic
casing production and finishing facilities.  The facilities are
located in Chicago, Illinois; Loudon, Tennessee; Osceola, Arkansas
and Kentland, Indiana.  Viskase, as the Lessee under the relevant
agreements, will continue to operate all of the facilities.  The
lease has been accounted for as a capital lease.

The principal terms of the sale and leaseback transaction include:
(a)  a 15 year basic lease term (plus selected renewals at
Viskase's option), (b) annual rent payments in advance beginning in
February 1991, and (c) a fixed price purchase option at the end of
the basic 15 year term and fair market purchase options at the end
of the basic term and each renewal term.  Further, the Lease
Documents contain covenants requiring maintenance by the Company of
certain financial ratios and restricting the Company's ability to
pay dividends, make payments to affiliates, make investments and
incur indebtedness.
Annual rental payments under the Lease will be approximately $19.2
million through 1997, $21.4 million in 1998 and $23.5 million
through the end of the basic 15-year term.  Viskase is required to
provide credit support consisting of a standby letter of credit in
an amount up to one year's rent through at least 1997.  This credit
support can be reduced up to $4,000,000 currently if the Company
achieves and maintains certain financial ratios.  As of June 29,
1995, the Company had met the required financial ratios and the
letter of credit has been reduced by $4,000,000.  The letter can be
further reduced in 1997 or eliminated after 1998 if the Company
achieves and maintains certain financial ratios.  Envirodyne and
its other principal subsidiaries guaranteed the obligations of
Viskase under the Lease.

The following is a schedule of minimum future lease payments under
the capital lease together with the present value of the net
minimum lease payments as of June 29, 1995:

The 1995 rental payment of $19,227,000 was paid on February 28,
1995.  Principal payments under the capital lease obligation for
the years ended 1995 through 1999 range from approximately $5
million to $13 million.

4.  SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS

Envirodyne's payment obligations under the Senior Secured Notes are
fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis
(collectively, Subsidiary Guarantees) by Viskase Corporation,
Viskase Holding Corporation, Viskase Sales Corporation, Clear
Shield National, Inc., Sandusky Plastics, Inc. and Sandusky
Plastics of Delaware, Inc., each a direct or indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of Envirodyne and each a "Guarantor." These subsidiaries
represent substantially all of the operations of Envirodyne
conducted in the United States.  The remaining subsidiaries of
Envirodyne generally are foreign subsidiaries or otherwise relate
to foreign operations.

The obligations of each Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee
are the senior obligation of such Guarantor, and are
collateralized, subject to certain permitted liens, by
substantially all of the domestic assets of the Guarantor and, in
the case of Viskase Holding Corporation, by a pledge of 65% of the
capital stock of Viskase S.A.  The Subsidiary Guarantees and
security are shared with the lenders under the Revolving Credit
Agreement on a pari passu basis and are subject to the priority
interest of the holders of obligations under the Letter of Credit
Facility, each pursuant to an intercreditor agreement.

In accordance with previous positions taken by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, the following consolidating condensed finan-
cial data illustrate the composition of the combined Guarantors. 
Separate complete financial statements of the respective Guarantors
would not provide additional material information that would be
useful in assessing the financial composition of the Guarantors. 
No single Guarantor has any significant legal restrictions on the
ability of investors or creditors to obtain access to its assets in
event of default on the Subsidiary Guarantee other than its
subordination to senior indebtedness described above.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for by the parent on the
equity method for purposes of the supplemental consolidating
presentation.  Earnings of subsidiaries are therefore reflected in
the parent's investment accounts and earnings.  The principal
elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries and
intercompany balances and transactions.

5. CONTINGENCIES

A class action lawsuit by former employees of subsidiary
corporations comprising most of the Company's former steel and
mining division (SMD) was pending as of the commencement of the
bankruptcy case in which the plaintiffs are seeking substantial
damages.  The Company and the plaintiffs are currently
participating in a mediation process to attempt to resolve the
case.  Envirodyne denies liability and in the absence of successful
mediation or other settlement negotiations will continue to
vigorously defend these claims.  However, inasmuch as the Plan of
Reorganization provides for the issuance of common stock with
respect to prepetition Envirodyne general unsecured claims (refer
to Note 1), an adverse finding of liability and damages could
result in substantial dilution to the holders of the common stock.

Litigation has been initiated with respect to events arising out of
the bankruptcy cases and the 1989 acquisition of Envirodyne by
Emerald Acquisition Corporation (Emerald) with respect to which,
although Envirodyne is not presently a party to such litigation,
certain defendants have asserted indemnity rights against
Envirodyne.  In ARTRA Group Incorporated v. Salomon Brothers

Case No. 93 L 2198, Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial
Circuit, County of DuPage, State of Illinois, ARTRA alleges
negligence, breach of fiduciary duty and duty of loyalty,
fraudulent misrepresentation and breach of contract in connection
with the 1989 acquisition of Envirodyne by Emerald.  The plaintiff
seeks damages in the total amount of $136,200,000 plus interest and
punitive damages of $408,600,000.  D.P. Kelly & Associates, L.P.
and Messrs. Kelly, Bobrinskoy, Massey, Rifkind and Zimmerman have
asserted common law and contractual rights of indemnity against
Envirodyne for attorneys' fees, costs and any ultimate liability
relating to the claims set forth in the complaints.  Envirodyne is
continuing its evaluation of the merits of the indemnification
claims against Envirodyne and the underlying claims in the
litigation.  Upon the undertaking of D.P. Kelly & Associates, L.P.
to repay such funds in the event it is ultimately determined that
there is no right to indemnity, Envirodyne is advancing funds to
D.P. Kelly & Associates, L.P. and Mr. Kelly for the payment of
legal fees in the case pending before the Bankruptcy Court. 
Although the case is in a preliminary stage and the Company is not
a party thereto, the Company believes that the plaintiff's claims
raise similar factual issues to those raised in the Envirodyne
bankruptcy cases which, if resolved in a manner similar to that in
the Envirodyne bankruptcy cases, would render it difficult for the
plaintiff to establish liability.  Accordingly, the Company
believes that the indemnification claims would not have a material
adverse effect upon the business or financial position of the
Company, even if the claimants were successful in establishing
their right to indemnification.

In the Envirodyne bankruptcy case the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA), the Economic Development Authority
(EDA), and Navistar International Transportation Corp.  (Navistar
Transportation) filed proofs of claim with respect to unreimbursed
environmental response costs at the location of the former SMD
operations.  Envirodyne and Navistar Transportation have negotiated
a definitive settlement agreement, subject to final approval by the
FDA and USEPA, Bankruptcy Court approval and public comment
pursuant to regulations applicable to EDA and USEPA, to settle the
claims against Envirodyne through the payment of $5,000 to the
USEPA and the issuance of 64,460 shares of common stock to Navistar
Transportation.  In the event that the settlement is not completed,
Envirodyne believes that it has valid defenses to the claims and
will continue its objections to the claims.  To the extent that
USEPA, EDA or Navistar Transportation were able to establish
liability and damages as to their respective proofs of claim, such
parties would receive Common Stock under the Plan of Reorganization
in satisfaction of their claims.

Certain of Envirodyne's stockholders prior to the acquisition of
Envirodyne by Emerald failed to exchange their certificates
representing old Envirodyne common stock for the $40 per share cash
merger consideration specified by the applicable acquisition
agreement.  In the Envirodyne bankruptcy case, Envirodyne is
seeking to equitably subordinate the interests of the holders of
untendered shares, in which event such holders would receive no
distribution pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization.  The
Bankruptcy Court granted Envirodyne's motion for summary judgment
to equitably subordinate the holders of untendered shares.  The
United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois
has affirmed the Bankruptcy Court's summary judgment.  If such
holders were nonetheless ultimately successful in a further appeal
of this matter, Envirodyne believes that the maximum number of
shares of common stock that it would be required to issue to such
claimants is approximately 106,000.

Clear Shield National, Inc. and some of its employees have received
subpoenas from the Antitrust Division of the United States
Department of Justice relating to a grand jury investigation of the
disposable plastic cutlery industry.  Clear Shield National, Inc.
is cooperating fully with the investigation.

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal
proceedings arising out of its business and other environmental
matters, none of which is expected to have a material adverse
effect upon its results of operations, cash flows or financial
position.<PAGE>

Results of Operations
---------------------

The Company's net sales for the first six months and second quarter
of 1995 were $321.0 million and $165.2 million, respectively, which
represented an increase of 9.4% and 9.5% over the comparable
periods of 1994, respectively.  Second quarter net sales at Viskase
increased by 11.1% over the prior year due to the expansion of
European and Latin American sales, selected price increases, strong
worldwide film sales, combined with the favorable effects of
foreign currency translation.  Second quarter net sales at Sandusky
declined 19.0% due to the loss of Scott Paper Company's
premoistened baby wipe container business, combined with an 11.8%
reduction in dairy and deli container sales.  The loss in container
sales is primarily attributed to a shift in demand from
thermoformed to injection molded containers.  The Company has
purchased injection molding equipment that will increase capacity.
 This effort is expected to substantially contribute to improving
the Company's competitiveness in this market.  Second quarter net
sales at Clear Shield increased 17.7% from the prior year primarily
due to selling price increases.
  
Operating income for the first six months and second quarter of
1995 was $18.8 million and $10.1 million, respectively,
representing decreases of $9.7 million and $8.7 million,
respectively, from the comparable periods of 1994.  The operating
income decline for the first six months and second quarter from the
prior year is the result of 1994 benefitting from a net $8.7
million settlement of a patent infringement suit.  In addition, for
the first six months of 1995 the Company continued to experience
resin price increases, price competition in domestic and foreign
markets, coupled with additional selling, general and
administrative expenses resulting from strategic expansions in
foreign markets, including Europe, Latin America and Australia and
the decline in Sandusky's sales, partially offset by the
consolidation of manufacturing operations at its Sandusky, Ohio
facility.

External factors affecting casing sales in both the domestic and
foreign markets include a general softness in hot dog sales in the
U.S. and a weakening of processed meat sales in Europe.  In
addition, Viscofan, S.A., a Spanish small diameter casing producer
entered the U.S. market in November 1994.  Although the Company has
yet to experience any significant volume loss to Viscofan,
management believes that Viskase will experience further pricing
pressures as a result of Viscofan's entrance into the domestic
market.

Net interest expense for the six months period totaled $27.2
million representing an increase of $2.9 million from the first six
months of 1994.  The increase is primarily the result of both
increased borrowing and higher interest rates on the term and
revolving loan facilities.

Other income of $1.1 million and $1.7 million in the first six
months of 1995 and 1994, respectively, consists principally of
foreign currency transaction gains and losses. 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of," was issued in March 1995 and established
financial accounting and reporting standards for the impairment of
long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be
disposed of.  The Company is not required to adopt this statement
until the first quarter of fiscal year 1996, although earlier
adoption is permitted.  The adoption of this statement is not
expected to have a significant impact on the Company's income from
continuing operations nor cash flows.

The tax benefit for the first six months resulted from the benefit
of U.S. losses partially offset by the provision related to income
from foreign subsidiaries.  Due to the permanent differences in the
U.S. resulting from non-deductible amortization and foreign losses
for which no tax benefit is provided, a benefit of $18 thousand was
provided on a loss before income taxes and extraordinary items of
$7.2 million.  The U.S. tax benefit is recorded as a reduction of
the deferred tax liability and does not result in a refund of
income taxes.

The extraordinary loss represents the write-off of unamortized
financing fees related to the Company's senior secured bank
facility that was refinanced by the private placement.  The
extraordinary loss of $4.2 million is net of a tax benefit of $2.6
million.  (Refer to Part I, Item I, Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.)


Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

On June 20, 1995, Envirodyne completed the sale of $160,000,000
aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes to certain
institutional investors in a private placement.  The senior secured
notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated June 20, 1995
(Indenture) and consist of (i) $151,500,000 of 12% Senior Secured
Notes due 2000 and (ii) $8,500,000 of Floating Rate Senior Secured
Notes due 2000 (collectively, the Senior Secured Notes). 
Envirodyne used the net proceeds of the offering primarily to (i)
repay the Company's $86,125,000 domestic term loan, (ii) repay the
$68,316,000 of obligations under the Company's domestic and foreign
revolving loans and (iii) pay transaction fees and expenses. 
Concurrently with the June 20, 1995 placement, Envirodyne entered
into a new $20,000,000 domestic revolving credit facility
(Revolving Credit Facility) and a new $28,000,000 letter of credit
facility (Letter of Credit Facility).  The Senior Secured Notes and
the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Letter
of Credit Facility are guaranteed by Envirodyne's significant
domestic subsidiaries and secured by a collateral pool (Collateral
Pool) comprised of: (i) all domestic accounts receivable (including
intercompany receivables) and inventory; (ii) all patents,
trademarks and other intellectual property (subject to non-
exclusive licensing agreements); (iii) substantially all domestic
fixed assets (other than assets subject to a lease agreement with
General Electric Capital Corporation); and (iv) a senior pledge of
100% of the capital stock of Envirodyne's significant domestic
subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of Viskase S.A.  Such
guarantees and security are shared by the holders of the Senior
Secured Notes and the holders of the obligations under the
Revolving Credit Facility on a pari passu basis pursuant to an
                               ---- -----
intercreditor agreement.  Pursuant to such intercreditor agreement,
the security interest of the holders of the obligations under the
Letter of Credit Facility has priority over all other liens on the
Collateral Pool.

The Company finances its working capital needs through a
combination of cash generated through operations and borrowings
under the Revolving Credit Facility.  The availability of funds
under the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to the Company's
compliance with certain covenants (which are substantially similar
to those included in the Indenture), to borrowing base limitations
measured by accounts receivable and inventory of the Company and to
reserves which may be established in the discretion of the lenders.
The available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit
Facility was approximately $16 million at June 29, 1995.

The Company anticipates that its operating cash flow will be
sufficient to meet its operating expenses and to service its
interest payments on the Senior Secured Notes and its other
outstanding indebtedness.  The Company will be required to satisfy
its $80 million mandatory redemption obligation with respect to the
Senior Secured Notes in 1999 and to pay the remaining principal
amount of the Senior Secured Notes in 2000.  Additionally, the
Company's 10.25% Notes, of which $219.3 million principal amount is
outstanding, will mature in December 2001.  The Company expects
that in order to make these payments it will be required to pursue
one or more alternative strategies, such as refinancing its
indebtedness, selling additional equity capital, reducing or
delaying capital expenditures, or selling assets.  There can be no
assurance that any of these strategies could be effected on
satisfactory terms, if at all.

Capital expenditures for the first six months of 1995 and 1994
totaled $13.6 million and $16 million, respectively.  Capital
expenditures for 1995 and future years are expected to be
approximately $30 million.  Capital expenditures totaled $32.6
million during 1994.  This represents an $8.3 million decrease from
1993 capital expenditure levels.  The decreased level of capital
expenditures in 1994 was principally related to the completion of
both the second phase of the European expansion program and initial
productive capacity investment program in Brazil during the prior
year.

The Company acquired the minority shareholder's interest in
Viskase's Brazilian subsidiary for $4.2 million during the first
quarter of 1994.

The Company has spent approximately $12 million to $17 million
annually on research and development programs, including product
and process development, and on new technology development during
each of the past three years, and the 1995 research and development
and product introduction expenses are expected to be approximately
$16 million.  Among the projects included in the current research
and development efforts is the application of certain patents and
technology recently licensed by Viskase to the manufacture of
cellulosic casings.  The commercialization of these applications
and the related fixed asset expense associated with such
commercialization may require substantial financial commitments in
future periods.
