THE MIDLAND COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
A detailed discussion of the Company's liquidity and capital resources
is included in the 1993 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except as discussed below,
no significant changes have taken place since that date and, accordingly, the
discussion is not repeated here.
The Company's property and casualty insurance division continues to grow
due primarily to increased penetration in each of its marketing channels.
Both written premiums and earned premiums have increased during the first
half and second quarter of 1994 as compared to the same periods in 1993.
The increases in accounts receivable, unearned insurance premiums, insurance
revenues, claims, and policy acquisition costs are the result of this growth.
The performance of this division during the first six months of 1994 as well
as the second quarter of 1994 has been adversely affected by severe and
unusual catastrophes which have struck throughout the United States in 1994.
Primarily as a result of these catastrophes, this division's loss ratio
through the first six months of 1994 is a full 10 percentage points greater
than the same period in 1993 which represents $6,200,000 in net losses, $2.07
per common share, on an after-tax basis.
The revenues and expenses of the Company's river transportation division
during the first six months and second quarter of 1994 were comparable to the
same periods in 1993. The earnings from this division for the first half of
1994 were hindered by flooding conditions on the inland waterway system during
the first quarter of 1994, however, earnings in the second quarter of 1994
have increased slightly over the comparable period in 1993. Additionally,
this division's operating performance continues to be negatively impacted by
the depressed affreightment rates and excess capacity that exists in the
market place. As previously reported in 1993, M/G Transport Services, Inc.
became aware of an investigation by federal authorities. The Company believes
that this investigation concerns the possible disposal of bilge water and
other refuse from various vessels on the Ohio River. M/G Transport is
cooperating fully with the investigation, the outcome of which cannot
presently be determined.
Revenues and expenses of CS Crable Sportswear, Inc., the Company's
sportswear division, during the first half and second quarter of 1994 have
increased relative to the comparable periods in 1993. The operating
performance of this division during the six and three month periods of 1994
are comparable to the 1993 periods.
It is the Company's investment policy to invest in high quality
marketable securities. The Company does not own any below investment grade
bonds. The decrease in marketable securities and short-term borrowings was
partially the result of reducing the Company's short-term borrowings with the
proceeds from the sale of marketable securities. In connection with sales of
marketable securities, the Company realized $2,077,000 (pre-tax) of net
capital gains in the first half of 1994 and $1,612,000 (pre-tax) of net
capital gains in the first half of 1993.
The federal income tax provision for the three and six-month periods
ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 is different from amounts derived by applying the
statutory tax rates to income before federal income tax as follows:
Six-Mos. Ended June 30, Three-Mos. Ended June 30,

During the third quarter of 1994, the Company will begin construction of
its new corporate headquarters building. It is currently estimated that this
facility will cost approximately $20 million dollars and is scheduled for
completion in the fourth quarter of 1995. Upon completion, this facility will
be financed through conventional long-term debt financing.
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No. 109), effective January 1, 1993. The
cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 109 on the Company's financial
statements was to increase income by $4,867,000 ($1.58 per common share),
which was recorded in income for the six months ended June 30, 1993 and to
decrease the deferred federal income tax liability.
In connection with accounting for reinsurance contracts,
reclassifications have been made in the accompanying December 31, 1993 Balance
Sheet (total assets and total liabilities have each been increased by
$14,624,000) to conform with June 30, 1994 classifications.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
The Midland Company:
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of The
Midland Company and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of income for the three month and six month
periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 and of cash flows for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical
procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons
responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially
less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of
an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to such consolidated financial statements for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of The Midland
Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993, and the related
consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report
dated February 10, 1994, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set
forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31,
1993 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the
consolidated financial statements from which it has been derived.
