Independent Auditors' Report
The Administrative Committee
First Mississippi Corporation
401(K) Savings Plan:
We have audited the financial statements and supplemental schedules of First
Mississippi Corporation 401(K) Savings Plan (the Plan) as listed in the
accompanying index. These financial statements and supplemental schedules are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of First
Mississippi Corporation 401(K) Savings Plan as of June 30, 1994 and 1993 and
the changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the years in the
three-year period ended June 30, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules referred to
above are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by Regulation S-X or by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

401(K) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992
(1) Plan Provisions and Significant Accounting Policies
The following brief description of First Mississippi Corporation 401(K)
Savings Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information
purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for
more complete information.
(a) Plan Provisions
The Plan is a defined contribution plan subject to the provisions
of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended (ERISA). The Plan currently covers substantially all
employees of First Mississippi Corporation (First Mississippi)
and eight wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Chemical Corporation,
Plasma Energy Corporation, Quality Chemicals, Inc., FirstMiss
Steel, Inc., AMPRO Fertilizer, Inc., Plasma Processing Corp.,
EKC Technology, Inc., and Callidus Technologies Inc. and one
majority- owned subsidiary, FirstMiss Gold Inc. and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, FMG, Inc. (the Companies or the
Employers). The Plan also previously covered substantially all
employees of Maxadyne Corporation, Steel Casting Engineering and
First Energy Corporation, which were wholly-owned subsidiaries
of First Mississippi.
The provisions of the Plan allow deferral of tax by the
participants on their contributions and earnings thereon.
Employees with six months of continuous employment are eligible
for membership in the Plan. Plan participants may elect to
contribute from 1% to 16.8% of monthly base pay to the Plan,
subject to regulatory limitations. The Companies match
contributions up to 4% of monthly base pay. At June 30, 1994,
1993 and 1992, 958, 852 and 874 participants, respectively, were
participating in the Plan.
Effective April 1, 1994 the Plan, formerly the First Mississippi
Corporation 401(k) Thrift Plan, was amended and restated. The
most significant amendment was the restructuring of the
participant investment options. Participants may elect to have
their contributions and allocated earnings thereon invested in
any combination of the following investment programs:
(1) Short-term Stability Fund - Consists primarily of
investments in certificates of deposit and fixed income
mutual funds.
(2) Mid-term Balanced Fund - Consists primarily of
investments in fixed income and equity mutual funds.
(3) Long-term Growth Fund - Consists primarily of
investments in equity mutual funds.
(4) First Mississippi common stock.
(5) FirstMiss Gold, Inc. common stock.

FIRST MISSISSIPPI CORPORATION
401(K) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
Prior to April 1, 1994 participants could elect to invest in
programs (4) and (5) above, as well as a program that invested
in cash deposited in interest-bearing bank accounts,
certificates of deposits, corporate or government obligations,
or other similar invest-ments. Additionally, prior to April 1,
1994 participants could elect investment options separately with
regard to their own contributions and the Employers'
contributions.
The Plan also provides for participant loans. A participant can
borrow up to 50% of the participant's vested account balance,
not to exceed $50,000 less the participant's highest outstanding
loan balance during the previous twelve months. The minimum loan
amount is $1,000, and only one loan for a participant may be
outstanding. The interest rate charged on loan balances is equal
to the prime rate plus 1%, and the interest charged is credited
to the borrowing participant's account. Maturities cannot exceed
five years, except for loans made to purchase a primary
residence in which case the maturity cannot exceed 10 years.
The participant must pay a $50 set-up fee and a $2.50 monthly
admini-strative fee for each loan.
In addition to the investment options listed above, the
Administrative Committee may authorize establishing additional
investment options consisting of such other securities or
professionally managed funds as may be determined by unanimous
action of the committee. Notice of any such action must be
communicated in writing to each participant. The following is a
summary of the number of participants in each investment option:

FIRST MISSISSIPPI CORPORATION
401(K) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
Participants' contributions and allocated earnings thereon are
fully vested at all times and are not subject to forfeiture for
any reason. Employers' contributions and allocated earnings
thereon fully vest after a participant completes three vesting
years of membership service in the Plan or upon a participant's
indefinite economic or industrial layoff, retirement, death or
disability, whichever occurs first. Forfeitures are reallocated
to the remaining participants.
(b) Participant Accounts
Participant accounts are maintained individually and in the
aggregate for each investment option. Each participant's account
is credited with its investment earnings and the portion of the
Employers' contributions allocated to it. Participant benefits
are provided solely from each individual participant's account.
(c) Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses, with the exception of advisory fees, are
paid by First Mississippi and are not charged to the Plan.
Advisory fees are for the management of the mutual funds in
which plan assets are invested.
(d) Investments
Investments in cash funds and certificates of deposit are stated at
cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in First
Mississippi common stock, FirstMiss Gold Inc. common stock,
government securities, and mutual funds are stated at quoted
market value. The guaranteed investment contract is stated at
contract value, which is cost. Dividends and interest are
recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are
accounted for on the trade date.
The Plan does not require any collateral or other security from the
trustee to support the investments.
(e) Income Taxes
In a determination letter dated April 14, 1986, the Internal
Revenue Service held that the Plan is exempt from income taxes
and that participant income taxes on contributions and earnings
are deferred until such amounts are received by the participant
or a beneficiary. The Plan has been amended, as described above,
subsequent to the effective date of the April 14, 1986
determination letter. The amended Plan documents are in the
process of being submitted to the Internal Revenue Service for a
letter of determination that the Plan continues to qualify as
exempt from income taxes. In the opinion of the Plan
Administrator, the Plan has operated within the terms of the
Plan and is qualified and exempt under the applicable
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
