NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
MORGAN KEEGAN, INC. and Subsidiaries
October 31, 1996
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Morgan Keegan,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the
Registrant). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule
10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
the three months ended October 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending July 31, 1997. For further
information, refer to the financial statements and notes hereto included in
the Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 1996.
NOTE B - NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENT
As a registered broker/dealer and member of the New York Stock Exchange, the
registrant's brokerage subsidiary, Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc. (M.K. & Co.)
is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) uniform net
capital rule. The broker/dealer subsidiary has elected to operate under the
alternative method of the rule, which prohibits a broker/dealer from engaging
in any securities transactions when its net capital is less than 2% of its
aggregate debit balances, as defined, arising from customer transactions.
The SEC may also require a member firm to reduce its business and restrict
withdrawal of subordinated capital if its net capital is less than 4% of
aggregate debit balances, and may prohibit a member firm from expanding its
business and declaring cash dividends if its net capital is less than 5% of
aggregate debit balances. At October 31, 1996, M.K. & Co. had net capital of
$92,381,482 which was 29% of its aggregate debit balances and $85,965,895 in
excess of the 2% net capital requirement.
NOTE C - INCOME TAXES
The principal reason for the difference between the Registrant's effective
tax rate and the federal statutory rate is the non-taxable interest earned on
municipal bonds.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MORGAN KEEGAN, INC. and Subsidiaries
Morgan Keegan, Inc. (The Registrant) operates a full service regional
brokerage business through its principal subsidiary, Morgan Keegan & Company,
Inc. (M.K. & Co.). M.K. & Co. is involved in the highly competitive business
of origination, underwriting, distribution, trading and brokerage of fixed
income and equity securities and also provides investment advisory services.
While M.K. & Co. regularly participates in the trading of some derivative
securities for its customers, this trading is not a major portion of M.K. &
Co.'s business. M.K. & Co. typically does not underwrite high yield
securities, and normally is not involved in bridge loan financings or any
other ventures that management believes may not be appropriate for its
strategic approach. Many highly volatile factors affect revenues, including
general market conditions, interest rates, investor sentiment and world
affairs, all of which are outside the Registrant's control. However, certain
expenses are relatively fixed. As a result, net earnings can vary
significantly from quarter to quarter, regardless of management's efforts to
enhance revenues and control costs.
Results of Operations
The Registrant's revenues increased approximately $5,475,000 (8%) to
$74,415,000 compared to $68,940,000 for the first quarter in the previous
year. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to an increase in
interest income which went up $5,192,000. In spite of the DOW continuing a
record setting pace, individual activity in smaller capital stocks slowed
slightly resulting in decreases in revenues from principal transactions and
investment banking income.
Operating expenses for the quarter increased approximately $7,956,000 (15%)
to $62,666,000 compared to $54,710,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 1996.
The largest components of the increase were interest expense (101%) and
communications expenses (19%). Interest expense increased due to carrying
larger inventory positions to meet the customer needs and communications
expenses increased due to the continued efforts to maintain a state-of-the-
art network communications system between the home office and the branch
office system.
Net income for the quarter decreased approximately $1,481,000 (17%) to
$7,349,000 ($0.36) from $8,830,000 ($0.44) for the same period in the
previous year, primarily due to the softer markets for the smaller capital
stocks.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
High liquidity is reflected in the Registrant's statement of financial
condition with approximately 94% of its assets consisting of cash or assets
readily convertible into cash. Financing resources include the Registrant's
equity capital, commercial paper, short-term borrowings, repurchase
agreements and other payables. For the three month period ended October 31,
1996, cash flows used for operating activities increased by $87,481,000,
which is primarily due to an increase of securities owned of $180,856,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MORGAN KEEGAN, INC. and Subsidiaries
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
Cash flows from financing activities were $166,773,000 for the three month
period ended October 31, 1996 compared to $70,379,000 in the same period of
the previous year. The increase was a result of the increase in short-term
borrowings used to carry the increased inventory positions.
Investing activities resulted in a $4,080,000 decrease in cash flows of the
current period compared to a $1,572,000 decrease in the previous period.
This is primarily due to the continued efforts to implement upgrades to the
branch office network system and the implementation of a new
telecommunications system.
At October 31, 1996, the Registrant's broker/dealer subsidiary, which is
regulated under the SEC's uniform net capital rule, had net capital of
$92,381,482 which was $85,965,895 in excess of the 2% net capital
requirement. During the quarter, the Registrant declared and paid cash
dividends of $0.07 per share on the shares outstanding.
The Registrant continued the stock repurchase program begun in November,
1993. During the quarter, the Registrant repurchased 11,600 shares for an
aggregate price of $142,100. Since the beginning of the repurchase program,
the Registrant has purchased 3,438,789 shares for $30,801,989.
