           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     The March 31, 1995 condensed consolidated balance sheet amounts 
have been derived from the previously audited consolidated balance 
sheets of MacDermid, Incorporated.  The condensed financial information 
reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, 
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of 
operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented and are of 
a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed in this report.  
The statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the 
consolidated financial statements included in MacDermid's 1995 Annual 
Report.

Note 2.  Trends of Results of Operations
     The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended
September 30, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily indicative of trends or 
of the results to be expected for the full year.

Note 3.  Earnings Per Common Share
     The computation of primary earnings per share is based upon the 
weighted average number of outstanding shares plus (in periods in which 
they have a dilutive effect) the effect of common shares contingently 
issuable from stock options.  The fully diluted per share computations 
may also reflect additional dilution related to stock options due to 
the use of the market price at the end of the period, when higher than 
the average price for the period.

Note 4.  Reclassification
     Certain amounts in the 1994 Consolidated Condensed Statements of 
Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform with the 1995 presentation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
              AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Following is a discussion that compares the results of operations for 
the three and six month periods which ended September 30, 1995 to the 
same periods in 1994 and the changes in financial condition during the 
six months then ended.

CONSOLIDATED OVERVIEW:

SALES

Net proprietary chemical sales for the current quarter increased 12% 
from the same period last year as business conditions continued to 
strengthen in Europe and in the Asia-Pacific markets and currency 
exchange rates moved favorably.  Overall sales, which were 15% over 
the same quarter last year, benefited from additional equipment 
business domestically.  For the six month period, total net sales 
also increased 15%. 

COSTS AND EXPENSES

Gross profits are 19% over last year for both the three and six month 
periods.  Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, is much improved, 
primarily a result of overhead efficiencies realized through 
integration of business acquired from Allied-Kelite last year and an 
improvement in the mix of products sold.  Selling, technical and 
administrative expenses increased principally in support of the higher 
sales levels.  Operating profits for the three and six month periods 
were 16% and 24%, respectively, over last year's corresponding periods.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate was approximately 40% for the current
six months period, up from approximately 36% for the same period in 1994.  
This increase reflects the effects of changes in taxable earnings among 
operating units which are taxable at differing rates.  

NET EARNINGS

Net earnings, before the cumulative effect of an accounting change in 
last year's first quarter, were 17% and 3%, respectively, over last 
year's corresponding three and six month periods.  Last year's first 
quarter included a one-time nontaxable profit on the sale of property 
in Asia.


GEOGRAPHIC SEGMENT RESULTS

NORTH AMERICAN OPERATIONS
Overall sales increases during the current periods were related 
principally to a business acquisition during the first quarter of last

fiscal year and to the inclusion in consolidated sales, during the 
second quarter this year, of the operating results of a wholly-owned 
equipment manufacturing subsidiary which formerly was a 50% owned 
joint venture.  Despite increased direct expenses related to new 
business and performance incentives and sharply increased interest 
cost related to last year's stock tender offer, net earnings were 
above last year's levels.

EUROPEAN OPERATIONS

In Europe, proprietary sales, as recorded in local currencies, increased
in most countries as the European economy has continued to recover from 
the recent severe recession.  Currency rate adjustments also contributed 
to the total sales increase which was in excess of 28% for both the three 
and six month periods as compared to last year.  Improved margins more 
than offset a 25% rise in direct expenses to support sales growth 
throughout the region.  Despite acceleration of goodwill amortization 
relative to a 1992 acquisition, net earnings showed substantial 
improvement for the second consecutive year.

ASIA/PACIFIC

The Asia-Pacific markets produced overall sales growth of 14% and 24% 
for the second quarter and six months as compared to the like periods 
last year.  Operating profits increased substantially for both the 
three and six month periods leading to a net earnings increase for the 
second quarter.  Net earnings for the six month period are lower than 
last year because a one-time nontaxable profit from a property sale 
realized in the first quarter last year was not available this year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Operating activities during the six months ending September 30, 1995 
resulted in a net inflow of cash amounting to $2.9 million.  The cash 
generated was used to pay for capital improvements and dividends to 
shareholders.  Modest additional borrowings were used to finance the 
purchase of a partner's interest in an equipment joint venture.  
Working capital at September 30, 1995 was $45 million as compared to 
$35 million at March 31, 1995.

Capital expenditures are expected to increase in line with total 
planned expenditures of about $5.0 million for the fiscal year.

MacDermid has a credit arrangement under which a long-term balance of 
$15.6 million remains outstanding at September 30, 1995 under a six-
year term loan and which permits borrowings of up to $10 million under 
a three-year revolving credit facility.  MacDermid's other credit 
facilities, which presently total approximately $38 million, together 
with the $10 million revolving credit facility, are adequate to fund 
current operating needs and expected capital expenditures.

On September 28, 1995, MacDermid signed a letter of intent to acquire 
the Electronics and Printing Division of Hercules, Incorporated for a 
purchase price of $100 million cash and $30 million in preferred stock, 
subject to completion of due diligence.  The acquisition, which is 
expected to be completed by the end of the year, would add approximately 
$70 million annually to sales -- complementing and strengthening the 
Corporation's position in Imaging Systems.  The transaction would 
require additional financing which Management is confident of obtaining 
at favorable terms.  Following the purchase, the Division's operations 
are expected to remain at their present location in Delaware.

OTHER INFORMATION


Item 5 - Other Information

On June 29, 1995, MacDermid acquired the remaining 50% share of its 
Hollmuller America joint venture for equipment manufacture from 
Hollmuller GmbH.  The former joint venture company, which was renamed, 
MacDermid Equipment, Inc. ("MEI"), is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of 
MacDermid.  The accounts of MEI were included in the consolidated 
balance sheets as of June 30, 1995 and results of operations have 
been included in consolidated results beginning July 1, 1995.
