NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Earnings  per  share  is  computed  by  dividing  net  income  by   the
weighted   number   of   common   shares  and,   when   applicable,   common
equivalent shares outstanding during the period.

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 3 - CASH FLOW STATEMENT:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Actual   interest  paid  was  $141,000  and  $171,000   for   the   six
months   ended   September   30,   1997   and   1996,   respectively.     In
addition,  actual  income  taxes  paid  were  $709,000  for  each   of   the
six months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 4 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     In   March  1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (FASB)
issued   Statement   of   Financial   Accounting   Standards   (SFAS)    No.
128,    "Earnings   Per   Share,"   which   is   effective   for   financial
statements   for   both   interim   and   annual   periods   ending    after
December   15,   1997.   This  new  standard  requires   dual   presentation
of   basic  and  diluted  earnings  per share  (EPS)  on  the  face  of  the
earnings   statement  and  requires  a  reconciliation of   the   numerators
and   denominators   of   basic   and   diluted   EPS   calculations.    The
Company's    current   EPS   calculation   conforms    to    diluted    EPS.
Diluted  EPS  will  not  be  materially  different  from  basic  EPS   since
potential   common   shares  in  the  form  of   stock   options   are   not
materially dilutive. 






<PAGE>9
     In   June   1997,   the   FASB   issued  SFAS   No.   130,   "Reporting
Comprehensive    Income"    and   SFAS   No.   131,    "Disclosures    about
Segments  of  an  Enterprise  and  Related  Information."   SFAS   No.   130
establishes     standards     for    reporting     and     disclosure     of
comprehensive   income   and   its   components   in   financial   statement
format.    Comprehensive  income  is  defined  as  the  change   in   equity
of   a   business   enterprise  during  a  period  from   transactions   and
other   events   and   circumstances  from  nonowner  sources.    SFAS   No.
130   is   effective   for  fiscal  years  beginning  after   December   31,
1997   and   is   not   expected  to  have  a   material   effect   on   the
Company's financial statements.

     SFAS   No.   131   establishes  standards  for  reporting   information
about   operating   segments  by  public  companies   in   their   financial
statements.     It    also    establishes    related    disclosures    about
products    and   services,   geographic   areas   and   major    customers.
SFAS   No.   131   is   effective   for   fiscal   years   beginning   after
December   15,   1997.   The   Company   is   currently   evaluating    what
impact this standard will have on its disclosures.

                       GRAHAM CORPORATION
        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
               CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                       SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
     Sales   increased   15%  in  the  second  quarter  1997   compared   to
1996.   Sales   for  the  second  quarter  increased  22%  in   the   United
States   and  decreased  47%  in  the  United  Kingdom  compared  to   1996.
Sales   for  the  six  months  ended  September  30,  1997  exceeded   sales
for  the  same  period  last  year  by  2%.   Sales  in  the  United  States
increased  4%  while  sales  in  the  United  Kingdom  declined   17%   from
the   same   period  last  year.   The  increased  sales   in   the   United
States   is   attributable   to  production  efficiencies   which   resulted
in    certain   projects   being   completed   ahead   of   schedule.    The
decrease   in  the  United  Kingdom  sales  is  reflective  of   a   decline
in   orders   during   the   first   and  second   quarters   due   to   the
strength of Pound Sterling.

     Cost   of  sales  as  a  percent  of  sales  for  the  second   quarter
1997   was  66%  compared  to  70%  a  year  ago.   Cost  of  sales   as   a
percent  of  sales  for  the  three month  period  was  67%  in  the  United
States   compared  to  71%  last  year  and  45%  in  the   United   Kingdom
compared  to  62%  last  year.   For  the  six  months,  cost  of  sales  as
a   percent  of  sales  was  67%  compared  to  71%  a  year  ago.   In  the
United   States,  the  cost  of  sales  percentage  was  68%   compared   to
71%   last  year  and  in  the  United  Kingdom  it  was  61%  compared   to
66%   for  the  same  period  last  year.   The  favorable  percentages  for
the   United   States  subsidiary  is  attributable  to   a   reduction   in
material   costs.    In   the  United  Kingdom  the   improvement   is   due
primarilly to product mix and lower production overhead expenses.

      Selling,   general   and   administrative   expenses   increased   21%
from   the   second  quarter  of  1996,  and  represent  24%  of  sales   as
compared  to  23%  in  1996.   For  the  six  months  ended  September   30,
1997,   selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  are  up   10%   as
compared   to   the   same   period  in  1996  and   were   24%   of   sales
compared    to    22%    in   1996.    These   increases    are    primarily
attributable   to   the   hiring   of   additional   sales   personnel   and
higher    selling   expenses   which   are   directly   related    to    the
increase in sales.

     Interest   expense  for  the  second  quarter  and  six  month   period
decreased   10%   and   23%,  respectively,  as   compared   to   the   same
periods   in   1996.    These  decreases  reflect   lower   interest   rates
and    minimal   borrowing   on   the   United   States   revolving   credit
facility due to strong cash flow experienced throughout the year.

     The  effective  income  tax  rate  for  the  second  quarter  and   six
month   period  in  1997  was  34%  which  is  relatively  consistent   with
the 1996 effective tax rate of 39% for the same periods.

Financial Condition
- -------------------
     The   financial   condition  of  the  Company   has   improved   during
fiscal   year  1997.  Working  capital  of  $11,364,000  at  September   30,
1997   compares   to   $10,272,000  at  March  31,   1997.    This   working
capital    increase   reflects   a   decrease   in   current    assets    of
<PAGE>11
$653,000   and   a   decrease   in   current  liabilities   of   $1,745,000.
The  decrease  in  current  assets  related  primarily  to  a  decrease   in
accounts   receivable   due   to  timing  of  collections   from   customers
and  a  decline  in  inventory  due  to  the  significant  sales  volume  in
the   second   quarter.   This  decrease  was  offset  by  an  increase   in
cash   and   equivalents  and  marketable  securities.   The   decrease   in
current    liabilities   reflects   the   decline   in   accounts    payable
which   is   attributable  to  timing  of  purchases.   The  current   ratio
at September 30, 1997 is 2.47 compared to 2.08 at March 31, 1997.

     Capital   expenditures  for  the  six  month   period   were   $336,000
compared   to   $316,000   for  the  same  period  in   1996.    Commitments
for    capital    expenditures   as   of    September    30,    1997    were
approximately $100,000.

     Short   term  debt  increased  $143,000  from  March  31,  1997   which
relates   to   borrowings  by  the  United  Kingdom  for   working   capital
needs.    Total  long-term  debt  decreased  $1,720,000  due   to   paydowns
on   the   United   States   revolving  line  of  credit.    The   long-term
debt  to  equity  ratio  is  10% compared to  26%  at  March  31,  1997  and
the   total  liabilities  to  assets  ratio  is  51%  compared  to  60%   at
March   31,  1997.   These  ratios  reflect  management's  success  in   its
efforts to reduce debt.

     Management   expects   that   the  cash  flow   from   operations   and
lines   of   credit   will  provide  sufficient  resources   to   fund   the
fiscal year 1998 cash requirements.


New Orders and Backlog
- ----------------------
     New  orders  for  the  second  quarter  were  $16,472,000  compared  to
$10,269,000   for   the  same  period  last  year.   New   orders   in   the
United   States   were   $15,792,000  compared   to   $9,282,000   for   the
same   period   in   1996.    New  orders  in  the   United   Kingdom   were
$680,000 compared to $987,000 for the same quarter last year.

     For   the   first   half   of  the  fiscal   year   new   orders   were
$37,260,000   compared   to  $27,529,000  for  the  comparable   six   month
period   of  1996.   New  orders  in  the  United  States  were  $35,438,000
for   the   six   month  period  compared  to  $25,056,000  for   the   same
period   last   year   and   new  orders  in   the   United   Kingdom   were
$1,822,000    compared   to   $2,473,000   in   1996.     The    substantial
increase    in    new    orders   in   the   United   States    is    mainly
attributable   to  large  contracts  for  export  while   the   decline   in
the   United   Kingdom   is   due  to  the   high   value   of   the   Pound
Sterling.

      Backlog    of   unfilled   orders   at   September   30,    1997    is
$31,489,000   compared  to  $23,026,000  at  this  time  a  year   ago   and
$22,348,000   at   March   31,  1997.   Current  backlog   in   the   United
States   of   $30,377,000  compares  to  $21,011,000  at   March   31,  1997
and   $22,066,000   at  September  30,  1996.   Current   backlog   in   the
United   Kingdom  of  $1,112,000  compares  to  $1,337,000  at   March   31,
1997   and  $960,000  at  September  30,  1996.   The  current  backlog   is
scheduled   to   be   shipped   during   the   next   twelve   months    and
represents    orders   from   traditional   markets   in    the    Company's
established product lines.
