                             Notes to Financial Statements
                                     June 30, 1996
                                      (Unaudited)

1.    Significant accounting policies

      Significant accounting policies of Regency Equities Corp. (the
Company)
      are set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed by the
Company
      for the year ended December 31, 1995, together with certain
procedural
      disclosures.

2.    Basis of reporting

      The balance sheet as of June 30, 1996, the statements of
operations for
      the three month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 and the six
month
      periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  the statement of changes
in
      shareholders' equity for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
the
      statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended June
30, 1996
      and 1995 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 with 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 statement presentation.  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 June 30, 1996 and the results of its operations and
cash
      flows for the three month and six month periods 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,
      1995.

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.  

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 second quarter of 1996, the Company recorded a net income
of
$47,605 before income taxes compared to net loss of $127 for the same
period
of 1995.  The increase resulted principally from a decrease in
professional
fees of $34,668 primarily attributable to legal fees incurred in
connection
with a proxy contest.

During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company recorded net
income
of $51,344 before income taxes compared to a net loss of $353,845 for
the
same period of 1995.  The increase in net income resulted principally
from
(i) a decrease in administrative expenses of $113,743 primarily due to
decreases in shareholders' meeting costs and directors' fees
attributable to
a proxy contest involving the Company; and (ii)a decrease in
professional
fees of $336,211 primarily attributable to legal fees incurred in
connection
with the proxy contest.  The increase in income was offset in part by
a
decrease in interest income of $44,854 caused by the decrease in cash
earning interest attributable to the $13,092,549 dividend.  Reference
is
made to the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December
31, 1995 for a more detailed discussion of the proxy contest.

Dividend

The Company paid a cash dividend on February 7, 1995 of $13,092,549
($.15
per share) to shareholders which represented approximately 77.5% and
77.8%
of the Company's assets and shareholders' equity, respectively, as of
