NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
MORGAN KEEGAN, INC. and Subsidiaries
April 30, 1997
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 nine months ended April 30, 1997, 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 April 30, 1997, M.K. & Co. had net capital of
$102,729,963 which was 30% of its aggregate debit balances and $95,848,230 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.
NOTE D - EFFECT OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 128
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 128, "Earnings per Share", which is required to be adopted on December
31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be required to change the method
currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior
periods. Under the new requirements for calculating primary earnings per
share, the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The impact of
Statement 128 on the calculation of primary earnings per share and fully
diluted earnings per share is not expected to be material.

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.
This Form 10-Q may contain or incorporate by reference statements which may
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Prospective investors are cautioned that
any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees for future performance
and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ
materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.
Results of Operations
The Registrant s revenues were $77,283,000 for the quarter ended April 30,
1997, or $2,014,000 lower than the same quarter of the previous year when
revenues were $79,297,000. The largest component of this decrease was an
15% decrease in principal transactions stemming primarily from an unsettled
equity market during the last two months of the quarter.
Operating expenses increased for the quarter 2% over the same time in the
previous fiscal year from $65,221,000 to $66,373,000. Interest expenses and
occupancy costs were the primary contributors to this increase. Interest
expense increased $1,369,000 as larger inventory positions were carried
during the quarter and occupancy costs increased $1,056,000 from commitments
to enhance the retail branch system office space and communications systems.
Net income for the quarter was $6,910,000 compared to $8,576,000 in the same
period a year ago. Corrections in the market in both March and April
attributed to the decline in net income for the quarter.
Total revenue for the nine months ended April 30, 1997, totaled $235,226,000
for a 4% increase over the same nine month period of the previous year when
revenues totaled $225,694,000. Interest earned on securities owned and
interest earned on customer margin balances comprised the most significant
portions of the increase in revenues by increasing 29% and 20%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MORGAN KEEGAN, INC. and Subsidiaries
Results of Operations (continued)
Year-to-date operating expenses increased 8% to $197,893,000 for the nine
months ended April 30, 1997, compared to $182,471,000 for the same period of
the previous year. Factors contributing to this increase include a
$2,804,000 increase in occupancy costs, a $2,539,000 increase in
communication expenses and a $8,293,000 increase in interest expense. Each
of these expenses is relative to the increase in trading volume and revenues
for the nine month period.
Net income for the nine months ended April 30, 1997, was $23,533,000 or
$3,090,000 less than the year-to-date net income at April 30, 1996, when net
income was $26,623,000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
High liquidity is reflected in the Registrant s statement of financial
condition with approximately 93% 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 nine months ended April 30, 1997,
cash flows used for operating activities increased by $39,544,000 which is
primarily due to an increase in securities owned.
Cash flows from financing activities were $93,707,000 for the nine months
ended April 30, 1997, compared to $48,427,000 for the same period in the
previous year. The increase was largely a result of the increase in short-
term borrowing used to carry increased inventory positions.
Cash flows used for investing activities were $9,218,000 for the current year
versus $7,345,000 in the previous year. This increase is a result of the
commitment to enhance and refine the communications system and links to the
retail branch system offices.
At April 30, 1997, the Registrant s broker/dealer subsidiary, which is
regulated under the SEC s uniform net capital rule, had net capital of
$102,729,963 which was $95,848,230 in excess of the 2% net capital
requirement. During the quarter, the Registrant declared and paid cash
dividends of $.08 per share on the shares outstanding.
The Registrant is authorized to repurchase its own stock under the stock
repurchase program begun in November, 1993. During the quarter no stock was
repurchased under the plan; year-to-date the Registrant has repurchased
11,600 shares for an aggregate price of $142,000. Since the beginning of the
repurchase program, the Registrant has repurchased 3,438,789 shares for
$30,801,989.<PAGE>
