       NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)  The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and include
all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary
to present fairly the results for such periods.  These interim
financial statements do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in Andal Corp.'s ("Andal" or the "Company") annual report
on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1994.

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the
realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the
ordinary course of business.  The Company's only source of
operating cash flow, other than from the sale of capital assets, is
its subsidiary, Multi-Arc Inc. ("Multi-Arc").  Pursuant to the
terms of Multi-Arc's term loan and revolving credit facility with
First Fidelity Bank, N. A., Multi-Arc is not permitted to pay
dividends or make loans to Andal, except that Multi-Arc is
permitted to pay cash to Andal to the extent that it utilizes any
of Andal's federal, state, and local net operating loss
carryforwards for income tax purposes.  However, such payments
cannot exceed $1 million per year for fiscal 1995 and 1996, after
which no further payments are permitted.  Andal's fiscal 1995
operating cash needs, including cash required for debt service, are
anticipated to aggregate approximately $3.3 million.  To partially
make up the shortfall, in December 1994 Andal sold, for $500,000,
approximately 2 1/2% of the common stock of Multi-Arc to Multi-
Arc's management; and Multi-Arc issued $500,000 of convertible
subordinated debentures (convertible into approximately 2% of
Multi-Arc common stock) to such management, the proceeds of which
were remitted to Andal as a return of capital.  Both the sale of
the common stock and the issuance of the debentures were funded
through non-recourse loans of $1 million made to its management by
Multi-Arc using Multi-Arc's revolving credit facility with First
Fidelity Bank.  Andal has also, in principle, agreed to an
additional $3.5 million of stock sales and $3.5 million of Multi-
Arc debenture issuances to Multi-Arc management and licensees, to
be funded by independent sources, under the same terms and
conditions, so long as such sales and issuances occur on or before
June 15, 1995.  There is no guarantee that the aforementioned
transactions will, in fact, occur.  Andal could also raise cash by
making sales of the remaining stock it owns of Steve's Homemade Ice
Cream, Inc., as market conditions permit.

     In addition to its regular operating cash needs, Andal may
also require cash to fund litigation costs related to its
discontinued operations and/or to make payments to creditors who
have yet to make payment demands.  For the longer term, even if the
aforementioned Multi-Arc stock and debenture transactions are
consummated, the Company's cash sources may not be sufficient, in
which case a further restructuring of its indebtedness to its
shareholders will be required.  Should the Company be unable to
accomplish such a restructuring, there may be no alternative other
than to enter into bankruptcy proceedings.  The accompanying
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the possible effect on the recoverability and
classification of assets or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to
continue as a going concern.

(2)  In December 1994, Andal sold, for $500,000, approximately 2
1/2% of the common stock of Multi-Arc to Multi-Arc's management;
and Multi-Arc issued $500,000 of convertible subordinated
debentures (convertible into approximately 2% of Multi-Arc common
stock) to such management, the proceeds of which were remitted to
Andal as a return of capital.  Both the sale of the common stock
and the issuance of the debentures were funded through non-recourse
loans of $1 million made to its management by Multi-arc using
Multi-Arc's revolving credit facility with First Fidelity Bank. 
Because of the non-recourse nature of the loans to management, the
gain on the sale of Multi-Arc common stock of approximately
$360,000 has been deferred until such time as the management loans
are repaid.

(3)  In November 1994, Multi-Arc India Ltd. ("India") completed an
initial public offering on the Bombay Stock Exchange which reduced
the Company's interest in India from 40% to 21%.  Andal recorded a
pretax gain of $85,000 as a result of this sale.

(4)  Inventories are summarized as follows:

(5)  Convertible subordinated debt at March 31, 1995 consists of
$1,825,000 of Andal's 5 1/2% convertible subordinated debentures
due in 1997 and $500,000 of Multi-Arc's 6% convertible subordinated
debentures due in 2004.

(6)  Andal and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income
tax return, and state and local tax returns are generally filed on
a combined basis.

     At September 30, 1994, the Company had net operating loss
carryforwards ("NOL's") for federal income tax purposes of
approximately $33 million which expire in varying amounts in years
1995 through 2008.  In addition, the Company's subsidiary in the
United Kingdom had unrelieved corporation tax losses of
approximately $3.6 million.

     Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income
tax purposes.  The Company has provided a valuation allowance
against net deferred tax assets because it is more likely than not
that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized.

(7)  See the Company's Form 10-Q report for the quarter ended
December 31, 1994 for information concerning the settlement of
litigation between National States Electric Corp., an inactive
subsidiary of the Company, and LFO Construction Corp.

     The Company is aware of various other lawsuits, claims, and
administrative proceedings which are pending involving it and its
subsidiaries.  In the opinion of the Company's management, these
matters will not result in any material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations,
or liquidity.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company, through its subsidiary, Multi-Arc Inc. ("Multi-
Arc"), is engaged in surface enhancement, the business of coating
materials, primarily metals.  Multi-Arc is also engaged in the
design, manufacture, assembly, and sale of proprietary coating
equipment systems.

     Consolidated operating revenues of $8.4 million and $14.9
million for the three months and six months ended March 31, 1995
were $570,000 and $1.2 million higher than the revenues for the
comparable periods of the prior year.  Operating revenues have
improved over the prior year entirely as the result of an aggregate
10% growth in coating services revenue due to improved economic
conditions in the United States, Canada, and, especially, the
United Kingdom where revenues have grown 26%.

     Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes
was $612,000 and $531,000 for the three months and six months ended
March 31, 1995, compared with $591,000 and $360,000 in the
comparable periods of the prior year.  Income (loss) from
continuing operations improved over the prior year as a result of
increased gross profits, principally related to the higher
revenues, in part offset by higher selling, general and
administrative costs which primarily reflect increased personnel
and commission costs.

     In November 1994, Multi-Arc India Ltd. ("India") completed an
initial public offering on the Bombay Stock Exchange which reduced
the Company's interest in India from 40% to 21%.  Andal recorded a
pretax gain of $85,000 as a result of this sale.

     Interest expense has increased entirely as a result of higher
interest rates as debt levels have been decreased.

     The income (loss) from discontinued operations in the 1995
periods includes $141,000 of income from settlement of a claim
during the three months ended March 31, 1995, offset by legal
expenses incurred relating to discontinued construction and real
estate operations.  The 1994 periods, in addition to legal
expenses, include $200,000 of expense for settlement of a
litigation.

                     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
                                    
          During the six months ended March 31, 1995, cash decreased by
$695,000.  This decrease was accounted for by funds used for
investing activities of $1,029,000, principally for capital
expenditures of $897,000, offset by cash provided by operating
activities of $218,000 and by cash provided by financing activities
of $116,000.  Cash used by operating activities includes cash used
by discontinued operations of $164,000 for legal expenses of the
Company's discontinued construction and real estate operations and
includes $141,000 of cash received from the settlement of a claim. 
The Company's operating cash flow continues to reflect a high level
of non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization.  Operating
activities also includes $673,000 of cash used to decrease accounts
payable and accrued liabilities which was primarily related to
seasonal payments of additional payroll and year-end bonus and
profit sharing at Multi-Arc as well as a reduction of trade
payables.

     Financing activities include $1.2 million of new debt borrowed
by Multi-Arc under its revolving credit facility with First
Fidelity Bank, N. A. of which $1 million was used to finance the
loans to management (see Note 2) and the balance for working
capital purposes.  During the six months ended March 31, 1995,
$1,025,000 of borrowed funds were repaid.

     The Company's only source of operating cash flow, other than
from the sale of capital assets, is Multi-Arc.  Pursuant to the
terms of the restructuring of Multi-Arc and of Multi-Arc's term
loan and revolving credit facility with First Fidelity Bank, Multi-
Arc is not permitted to pay dividends or make loans to Andal,
except that Multi-Arc is permitted to pay cash to Andal to the
extent that it utilizes any of Andal's federal, state, and local
net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes.  However,
such payments cannot exceed $1 million per year for fiscal 1995 and
1996, after which no further payments are permitted.  Andal's
fiscal 1995 operating cash needs, including cash required for debt
service, are anticipated to aggregate approximately $3.3 million. 
To partially make up the shortfall, in December 1994, Andal sold,
for $500,000, approximately 2 1/2% of the common stock of Multi-Arc
to Multi-Arc's management; and Multi-Arc issued $500,000 of
convertible subordinated debentures (convertible into approximately
2% of Multi-Arc common stock) to such management, the proceeds of
which were remitted to Andal as a return of capital.  Both the sale
of the common stock and the issuance of the debentures were funded
through non-recourse loans of $1 million made to its management by
Multi-Arc using Multi-Arc's revolving credit facility with First
Fidelity Bank.  Andal has also, in principle, agreed to an
additional $3.5 million of stock sales and $3.5 million of Multi-
Arc debenture issuances to Multi-Arc management and licensees, to
be funded by independent sources, under the same terms and
conditions, so long as such sales and issuances occur on or before
June 15, 1995.  There is no guarantee that the aforementioned
transactions will, in fact, occur.  Andal could also raise cash by
making sales of the remaining Steve's stock it owns, as market
conditions permit.

     In addition to its regular operating cash needs, Andal may
also require cash to fund litigation costs related to its
discontinued operations and/or to make payments to creditors who
have yet to make payment demands.  For the longer term, even if the
aforementioned Multi-Arc stock and debenture transactions are
consummated, the Company's cash sources may not be sufficient, in
which case a further restructuring of indebtedness to the UBC
Lenders and Fleet Assignees will be required.  Should the Company
be unable to accomplish such a restructuring, there may be no
alternative other than to enter into bankruptcy proceedings.
