                       Notes to Financial Statements
                              March 31, 1995
                                (Unaudited)


1.   Significant accounting policies

     Significant accounting policies of Regency Equities Corp. are set
     forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed by the Company for
     the year ended December 31, 1994, together with certain procedural
     disclosures.

2.   Basis of reporting

     The balance sheet as of March 31, 1995, the statements of operations
     for the three month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, the
     statement of changes in shareholders' equity for the three months
     ended March 31, 1995, and the statements of cash flows for the three
     month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, have been prepared by the
     Company without audit.  The accompanying unaudited financial
     statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant
     to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. 
     Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
     required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
     financial statements.  In the opinion of management, such statements
     include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items)
     which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the
     financial position of the Company at March 31, 1995 and the results of
     its operations and cash flow for the three month period then ended. 
     It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction
     with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
     Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
     1994.

3.   Rental property

     Real estate owned consists of a shopping center in Grand Rapids,
     Michigan.  Two tenants lease space in the shopping center.  The leases
     expire on July 10, 1997 and August 31, 1999.<PAGE>

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


Material changes in financial condition

There was a material change in the Company's financial condition during the
quarter ended March 31, 1995 arising from the payment of a cash dividend of
$13,092,549 (see "Dividend" below).  


Results of operations

During the first quarter of 1995, the Company recorded a net loss of
$353,719 before income taxes compared to net income of $39,252 for the same
period of 1994.  The decrease resulted principally from (i) a decrease in
interest income of $18,137 caused by the decrease in the amount of cash
earning interest attributable to the $13,092,549 dividend (offset in part
by an increase in interest rates of approximately 1%); (ii) an increase in
administrative expenses of $93,593 primarily due to increases in
shareholders' meeting costs and directors' fees attributable to a proxy
contest between the Company and the Regency Shareholders Committee; and
(iii) an increase in professional fees of $282,006 primarily attributable
to legal fees incurred in connection with the proxy contest.  Reference is
made to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1994 for a more detailed discussion of the proxy contest.
