Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets  

     On June 30, 1995, Katy Industries, Inc. ("Katy" or the "Company"), sold
one-half of its interest (90,000 shares) in Schon & Cie, AG ("Schon") to
Pegasus Beteiligungen AG ("Pegasus") of Heidelberg, Germany.  Schon has
three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sofema S.A.R.L., Schoen Machinery USA,
Inc. and American Shoe Machinery Company (collectively referred to with
Schon as the "Schon Group").  The sale, which is irrevocable,  was made on
the basis of a contingent price, whereby Katy will receive two-thirds of the
amount  ultimately realized by Pegasus in any  future sale of such shares, or,
under some circumstances, will be entitled to find a purchaser for
two-thirds of such shares and receive the proceeds of the sale thereof. 
Katy continues to hold  90,000 shares, or a 37.5% interest in Schon, and
Katy and Pegasus have agreed that Pegasus will secure three seats, and Katy
will retain two seats, on Schon's nine-member Supervisory Board.  The Schon
Group manufactures and sells a wide range of mechanical and
programmable four post, web and flat bed die-cutting equipment, and shoe
manufacturing machines.  The assets of the Schon Group include accounts
receivable, machinery and equipment, inventory and real property.  With
the reduction in its ownership interest, Katy will report its continuing
investment in Schon using the equity basis of accounting for an
unconsolidated subsidiary effective June 30, 1995.  There is no
material relationship between Pegasus and Katy, or any of their respective
affiliates, directors or officers or to the knowledge of Katy, any associate
of any such director or officer.

KATY INDUSTRIES, INC.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995


The following unaudited pro forma  balance sheet as of March 31, 1995, gives
effect to the sale of  37.5% of the common stock of Schon & Cie, AG ("Schon")
by Katy Industries, Inc. ("Katy") as if the sale had occurred on
January 1, 1994.  The unaudited statements of operations for the twelve
months ended December 31, 1994 and the three months  ended March 31, 1995
give effect to the above transaction and to the acquisition by Hallmark
Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Katy, of the common stock of
GC Thorsen, Inc. ("Thorsen") as if both transactions had occurred on
January 1, 1994.  The acquisition of Thorsen was previously reported on
Form 8K/A on June 19, 1995. 

The historical financial data of Katy and Thorsen included in the pro forma
statements is as of the periods presented.  The financial statements of
Schon are as of a different date because of the time required to prepare and
translate such financial statements under United States generally accepted
accounting principles, and the presentation is consistent with prior
practice.  The historical financial data of Schon included in the pro forma
balance sheet is as of January 31, 1995.   The historical financial data of
Schon included in the pro forma  statements of operations is for the twelve
months ended October 30, 1994 and for the three months  ended
January 31,1995.  

The unaudited pro forma financial data is based on management's best
estimate of the effects of the disposition of 37.5% of Schon's outstanding
shares, and the acquisition of Thorsen.  Pro forma adjustments are based on
currently available information; however, the actual adjustments will be
based on more precise appraisals, evaluations and estimates of fair values. 
It is possible that the actual adjustments could differ from those presented
in the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the twelve months ended
December 31, 1994, and the three months ended March 31, 1995, are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have
been achieved had the sale of Schon  and the acquisition of Thorsen been
consummated as of the dates indicated, or that may be achieved in the future.
The unaudited pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction 
with the accompanying notes. 

Thorsen's financial performance for the three months ended March 31, 1995, 
prior to the acquisition by Katy, was affected by several factors.  In 1994, 
the cost basis of a portion of the inventory sold had been stepped up to 
approximately its selling price as a part of the acquisition of Thorsen by 
its previous parent, Elgin National Industries,Inc., late in 1993.  
The effect in 1994 of this cost basis step-up was to depress margins
on sales made in early 1994, and as a result, 1995 margins are higher.  
The improved margins in 1995 were partially offset by higher material prices 
for Thorsen's tool business and higher selling expenses due to the increase 
in sales during the three months ended March 31, 1995.
 
The unaudited pro forma statements of operations do not reflect the tax 
benefit (approximately $3,000,000) resulting from the sale of the Schon 
stock.  This benefit will be reflected in Katy's financial statements for 
the period ended June 30, 1995.
