Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30,1996 vs 1995
American had a loss of $5,000 for the six months ended June 30,1996
compared to a loss of $14,000 for the same period of 1995. The losses
from continuing operations for 1996 and 1995 were primarily due to the
inability to generate sufficient income to cover its overhead. American is
currently inactive and does not conduct any operations except through it's
forty five percent owned subsidiary Talmana which conducts a shrimp
fishing and processing operation in Costa Rica. The shrimp processed
by Talmana are caught in company owned and operated fishing vessels
and purchased from independent fishermen. Talmana's products are sold
locally and exported to Europe, Japan and the United States. Talmana
does not report earnings on a quarterly basis and its earning have not
been taken into consideration in this report.
The demand and pricing of Talmana's products vary from season to
season depending on availability of product worldwide. The first quarter
of the year is usually the weakest due to the shortage of product as a
result of adverse weather conditions off the west coast of Costa Rica.
Inflation and competition do not have any significant effect on Talmana's
operation.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1996 vs 1995.
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results
of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 also pertain to the
corresponding three month period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCE
American does not have adequate liquidity to maintain its current
operation and has closed its office in New Jersey. It's officers and
directors loaned $38,000 to American, with an option to convert $30,000
of loans to 3,000 shares of Americans common stock in order to enable it
settle a portion of its outstanding obligations. American paid the FDIC
$100,000 to settle its judgment and has agreed to pay Nations Bank
$15,000 and Steven Bernstein $36,000 in full settlement of their claims
against the company. As of June 30, 1996 the obligation to the Nations
Bank is still outstanding and Mr. Bernstein has been paid $2,000 in part
payment of the obligation owed to him. American intends to attempt to
raise additional funds through the private sale of its stock to potential
investors, however it has been unsuccessful to date.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS
June 30, 1996
NOTE 1-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American
Midland Corporation ("American) and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
American owns a forty five percent interest in a Costa Rican shrimp
fishing and processing company ("Talmana"). Talmana does not report
earnings on a quarterly basis and its results have not been taken into
consideration in this report. American reports this investment as an
investment in an unconsolidated subsidiary on the equity method, adjusted
annually. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated.
Going Concern
American has suffered recurring losses from operation and its current
obligations exceed its current assets. It has recently settled substantial
obligations and funded said settlements by loans from its officers and
directors. It is continuing to attempt to raise additonal funds to pay its
current outstanding obligations and for future operations. These matters
raise substantial concern about American's ability to continue as a going
concern.
Per Share Calculation
The computation of per share amounts is based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding in each period. Common stock
equivalents, which include stock options are either insignificant or anti-
dilutive.
Investments
Americans's ownership of a $3,000,000 10 year 6% redeemable preferred
stock due December 31, 2002 and it's ownership of forty five percent of
the outstanding common shares of Talmana S.A. is carried on its books as
an investment in an unconsolidated subsidiary. Dividends on the
preferred stock may be paid in any year in which Talmana has after tax
earnings in excess of $1,500,000 if declared by the board of directors of
Talmana. Dividends not paid are accrued and payable on the Redemption
Date. No dividends have been paid. American's investment is carried on
the equity method and no accruals have been made for earned but unpaid
dividends.
