NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS
June 30, 1999
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, with an option to convert
$30,000 of said loans into 3,000,000 shares of common stock 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.

Item 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE Six MONTHS ENDED
September 30, 1999 vs 1998
American had a loss of $1,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared to a loss of $1,000 for the same period of 1998. The losses from
continuing operations for 1999 and 1998 were primarily due to the inability
to generate 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.
.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCE
American does not have adequate liquidity to maintain its current operation
and has closed its office in New Jersey. Its officers and directors loaned
$40,000 to American, with an option to convert $30,000 of loans to
3,000,000 shares of Americans common stock.They have indicated a
willingness to loan any additonal funds that might be required to meet
American's ongoing obligations. American intends to raise additonal funds
through the private sale of its stock to potential investors, however it has
been unsuccessful to date.
