                         (Unaudited)


(1) Basis of Presentation

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited 
condensed consolidated financial statements contain all 
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of 
Panatech as of December 31 and March 31, 1995 and the results of 
operations and cash flows for the three months and nine months 
ended December 31, 1995 and 1994.

     The accounting policies followed by Panatech are set forth 
in Note 1 to the financial statements in the 1995 Panatech Annual 
Report filed on Form 10-KSB.

     The results of operations for the three-month and nine-month 
periods ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily 
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
              Condition and Results of Operations


Financial Condition

     Panatech's resources, in the opinion of management, are 
adequate for projected operations and capital spending programs, 
and the continuation of semi-annual cash dividends which are 
presently at a rate of approximately $589,000 per year.
 
     During the third quarter ended December 31, 1995, warrants 
were exercised to purchase 11,070 shares of common stock of the 
Company at $5.00 per share, for a total of $55,350.  For the nine 
months year to date, warrants for 251,325 shares were exercised 
for a total of $1,256,625.  On August 15, 1995, the Company 
prepaid the remaining balance of $775,000 of its outstanding 
long-term debt.

Results of Operations

     For the three months ended December 31, 1995, the Company 
had sales of $2,390,000, virtually unchanged from the same 
quarter a year ago.  However, last year, third and fourth quarter
results were increased by large initial stocking orders, or
"pipeline filling", for new products from several major customers.
This year, there was a return to normal seasonal patterns,
and sales included minimal "pipeline filling".

     Gross profit was 56.2% of sales compared to 
58.1% of sales last year with the decrease in gross profit 
percentage largely due to a change in product mix.  Selling, 
general, and administrative expenses were $834,000, or 34.9% of 
sales, compared to $893,000, or 37.4% of sales last year, 
therefore operating income was $449,000 compared to $434,000 in 
the year-earlier quarter, mainly due to the lower S,G & A 
expenses which more than offset the lower gross profit generated.

     Interest income was $40,000 compared to $21,000 last year 
principally due to higher balances of invested funds.  Interest 
expense was $9,000 compared to $29,000 in last year's third 
quarter mainly due to full repayment of outstanding long-term 
debt on August 15, 1995.  Last year, other income represented a 
$39,000 royalty payment resulting from a 1991 divestiture.  The 
royalty payments were completed in March 1995.  

     Income before income taxes rose from $465,000 to $480,000. 
Provision for income taxes was $195,000 compared to $207,000 last 
year.  Net income was $285,000, which was $27,000, or 10%, higher
than the $258,000 recorded last year.  In 1995, average common 
and common equivalent shares outstanding were 4,073,000 shares 
compared to 3,548,000 last year, an increase of 15%.  The 
increase was mainly due to the exercise of stock options at the 
 
                              7

end of the last fiscal year as well as 251,325 warrants in 
August- October 1995, plus the potential dilutive effect of 
unexercised options and warrants.  Despite the 10% increase in 
net income, the increase in average shares outstanding resulted
in earnings per share remaining level at $.07 per share.

     For the nine months ended December 31, 1995, the Company had 
sales of $8,671,000, an increase of $1,516,000, or 21%, from the 
same period a year ago, reflecting increased demand for ASM 
products.  Gross profit was 58.0% of sales compared to 57.2% of 
sales in last year's first nine months.  The increase in gross 
profit was largely due to the greater volume enabling overhead 
costs to be spread over greater production, offset in part by a 
somewhat different sale mix in 1995.  Selling, general, and 
administrative expenses were $2,654,000, or 30.6% of sales, 
compared to $2,765,000, or 38.6% of sales last year, with the 
lower percentage primarily due to the higher sales volume as well 
as the expiration, on September 30, 1994, of amortization and 
other expenses relating to the acquisition of ASM.  Operating 
income was $2,189,000 compared to $1,120,000 in the first nine 
months of  the previous fiscal year, mainly due to the additional 
gross profit generated by higher sales.

     Interest income for the nine months was $99,000 compared to 
$57,000 last year principally due to higher balances of invested 
funds. Interest expense was $55,000 compared to $95,000 last year 
mainly due to full repayment of outstanding long-term debt on 
August 15, 1995.  Last year, other income represented a $100,000 
royalty payment resulting from a 1991 divestiture.  The royalty 
payments were completed in March 1995.  

     Income before income taxes rose from $1,182,000 to 
$2,233,000. Provision for income taxes was $923,000 compared to 
$531,000 last year.  Therefore, net income  was $1,310,000, or 
$.33 per share compared to $651,000, or $.18 per share, last 
year.  In the nine months ended December 31, 1995, average shares 
outstanding were 4,030,000 compared to 3,547,000 last year. The 
increase was mainly due to the exercise of stock options at the 
end of the last fiscal year as well as 251,325 warrants in 
August - October 1995, plus the potential dilutive effect of 
unexercised options and warrants.

     The normal seasonal pattern of the Company's sales has 
historically been that the June and September fiscal quarters 
show greater activity than the December and March fiscal quarters 
due to lower purchases by ultimate users of painting equipment 
and supplies in the winter months.  The exception to this pattern 
was in the December and March quarters of last fiscal year when 
the Company received large initial stocking orders or "pipeline 
filling" for new products from several major customers.  However, 
in this year's December quarter, the Company understands that 
there was minimal "pipeline filling" and sales reflected normal 
seasonal patterns.

                 PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

    As previously reported, the Company's wholly owned 
subsidiary, ASM Company, Inc. (ASM), filed in April 1995 a 
lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Central 
District of California against Titan Tool, Inc.(Titan), claiming 
that a new product recently introduced into the marketplace by 
Titan infringed certain patents held by ASM.  Thereafter, Titan 
answered and filed certain cross-claims against ASM.  In 
September 1995, the parties agreed to dismiss all claims against 
each other for financial damages and to submit all patent issues 
to final and binding arbitration before a single arbitrator.  The 
arbitration hearing is scheduled for February and March 1996, and 
the arbitrator's decision is to be rendered not later than June 
1996.

	The Company and ASM are not engaged in any other litigation 
except for claims incurred in the ordinary course of business.
