DEAR SHAREHOLDERS:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Lexington Growth and Income Fund appreciated 13.57%* for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. This compares to a 12.11% return for the average growth and
income fund monitored by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. during the period.
These returns came despite a background of collapsing Asian economies and
the resultant heightened concern for U.S. corporate earnings growth. Despite
some earlier hope that the worst was over in Asia, economic conditions in Japan
have continued to deteriorate. On the domestic earnings front, optimism for
another strong year of growth has been steadily eroding. First quarter earnings
for the unmanaged Standard & Poors 500 Stock Price Index increased 1.4% and June
quarter earnings are estimated to have risen only 1.5%. At the beginning of the
year the expected gain for the June quarter was 19%. That the stock market has
done this well in the face of virtually flat corporate earnings says much about
the other positive forces underpinning stock prices. These include low inflation
and interest rates, plenty of liquidity, and strong inflows into equity mutual
funds.
The U.S. economy is demonstrating tremendous resilience. While recession in
Asia has weakened the trade sector, the resulting lower interest rates have
served to stimulate the consumer sector. Gross Domestic Product grew at a very
strong 5.4% in the first quarter but will likely slow significantly in the
second quarter as the Asian drag takes hold and inventories are reduced.
However, unless the consumer sector weakens materially, overall growth will
likely remain strong through the rest of the year. Nonetheless, that growth,
together with rising wages and a very tight labor market could influence the
Federal Reserve to raise interest rates later in the year if Asian concerns
diminish. This, together with sluggish earnings growth should lead to increased
market volatility.
We continue to focus our attention on stock selection, believing that
avoiding significant earnings disappointments provides the key to performance.
The Fund continues to be well represented with predictable earnings companies
such as healthcare, consumer staple and domestically oriented financial,
technology and economically sensitive issues.
We appreciate your continued support and welcome the opportunity to discuss
any questions you may have about your investment.
Sincerely,

LEXINGTON GROWTH AND INCOME FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1998 (unaudited) and December 31, 1997
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Lexington Growth and Income Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is an open-end diversified
management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Fund's investment objective is long-term appreciation of
capital. Income is a secondary objective. The following is a summary of
significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its
financial statements:
INVESTMENTS Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date
basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are reported on
the identified cost basis. Securities traded on a recognized stock exchange are
valued at the last sales price reported by the exchange on which the securities
are traded. If no sales prices is recorded, the mean between the last bid and
asked prices is used. Securities traded on the over-the-counter market are
valued at the mean between the last current bid and asked prices. Short-term
securities having a maturity of 60 days or less are stated at amortized cost,
which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not
readily available and other assets are valued by Fund management in good faith
under the direction of the Fund's Board of Directors. All investments quoted in
foreign currencies are valued in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign
currency exchange rates prevailing at the close of business. Dividend income and
distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest
income, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is
accrued as earned.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to "regulated investment
companies" and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no provision for Federal income taxes is required.
DISTRIBUTIONS Dividends from net investment income are normally declared
and paid semi-annually and dividends from net realized capital gains are
normally declared and paid annually. However, the Fund may make distributions on
a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code. The character of income and gains to be distributed are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. At December 31, 1997,
reclassifications were made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect permanent
book/tax differences and income and gains available for distributions under
income tax regulations. Net investment income, net realized gains and net assets
were not affected by this change.
USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in
net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS
WITH AFFILIATE
The Fund pays an investment advisory fee to Lexington Management Corporation
("LMC") at an annual rate of 0.75% of the Fund's average daily net assets up to
$100 million and in decreasing stages to 0.40% of average daily net assets in
excess of $250 million. For 1998, LMC has agreed to voluntarily limit the total
expenses of the Fund (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and
extraordinary expenses but including management fees and operating expenses) to
an annual rate of 2.50% of the Fund's average net assets. No reimbursement was
required for the six months ended June 30, 1998.
The Fund also reimburses LMC for certain expenses, including accounting and
shareholder servicing costs of $210,928 which are incurred by the Fund, but paid
by LMC.

June 30, 1998 (unaudited) and December 31, 1997 (continued)
3. DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Fund has a distribution Plan (the "Plan") which allows payments to finance
activities associated with the distribution of the Fund's shares. The Plan
provides that the Fund may pay distribution fees on a reimbursement basis,
including payments to Lexington Funds Distributor, Inc. ("LFD"), the Fund's
distributor, in amounts not exceeding 0.25% per annum of the Fund's average
daily net assets. Total distribution expenses for the six months ended June 30,
1998 were $299,145 and are set forth in the statement of operations.
4. CAPITAL STOCK
Transactions in capital stock were as follows:

5. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, excluding short-term securities, were $87,731,019 and
$95,792,242, respectively. At June 30, 1998, the aggregate gross unrealized
appreciation for all securities in which there is an excess of value over tax
cost amounted to $63,190,396 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all
securities in which there is an excess of tax cost over value amounted to
$4,920,688.
6. INVESTMENT AND CONCENTRATION RISKS
The Fund's ability to invest in foreign securities may involve risks not present
in domestic investments. Since foreign securities may be denominated in a
foreign currency and involve settlement and pay interest or dividends in foreign
currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S.
dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the
Fund. Foreign investments may also subject the Fund to foreign government
exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or
economic developments, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk
of the investments.
