The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have 
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and 
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all 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

3.  JOINT VENTURE

In July, 1993, the Company and American International Group Inc. ("AIG") formed
a corporate joint venture, Techmark Services Ltd. ("Techmark" or the "Joint 
Venture") owned fifty-one percent (51%) by AIG and forty-nine percent (49%) by 
the Company.




                              Page 6

In conjunction with the foregoing alliance, in October, 1993, AIG purchased, 
for a price of $6,430,000, options and a special issue of preferred stock which
was convertible into an issue of new shares of common stock which, subsequent 
to its issuance, would be equivalent to twenty percent (20%) of the Company's 
issued and outstanding common stock.  Under the terms of this purchase 
agreement, AIG had the right to purchase an increased interest in the Company, 
to a maximum of thirty percent (30%) of the Company's issued and outstanding 
common stock, if certain operating goals were achieved by the Company.

On April 18, 1996, the Company and AIG consummated an agreement for the 
termination of the Techmark Joint Venture (the "Agreement").  Under the terms 
of the Agreement, AIG agreed to purchase the Company's forty-nine (49%) 
interest in the Joint Venture for $3,762,154 and the Company agreed to 
repurchase the 3,234,697 shares of convertible preferred stock held by AIG for 
its original redemption value of $6,430,000 and further relinquish their rights
to other options under the original agreement.  As a result of this 
transaction, the Company no longer has any investment in or liability to the 
Joint Venture and will no longer record any equity in the operations of the 
Joint Venture.  The redemption value will be offset by the amount due the 
Company from the sale of its investment, with the net amount due AIG of 
$2,395,960 resulting in a three year, non-interest bearing note payable in 11 
equal quarterly installments of $205,000 commencing June 30, 1996 with a final 
installment of $140,960 due March, 1999.  In the event of default by the 
Company under the note payable, the Company would be required to reissue to 
AIG preferred stock for the remaining amount due at the default date.

At March 31, 1996, the Company's carrying value of its investment amounted to 
$1,885,674 which  resulted in a gain on the sale of the investment of 
$1,876,480, recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

Also, as part of the agreement, AIG paid the Company $1,480,000 related to 
amounts due the Company as of March 31, 1996, under its profit sharing 
arrangement.  In connection with this payment, the Company issued an 
irrevocable letter of credit to the benefit of AIG through December 2002 which 
can be drawn upon by AIG in the event the ultimate profit sharing amount due 
the Company is less than the amount previously paid.  It is anticipated at this
time that no amounts will be due AIG under the letter of credit.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Results of Operations

Gross revenues for the six month and three month periods ended September 30, 
1996 amounted to $74,663,459 and $38,663,434, respectively as compared with 
$43,934,597 and $23,780,262 for the same periods a year ago representing a 
70% and 63% increase for those periods, respectively.  The increases in the six
and three month periods are directly attributable to approximately $17 million 
and $10 million, respectively,  related to new customers in both the consumer 
product and automotive programs and approximately $14 million and $5 million, 
respectively, related to volume increases with existing customers and renewals.
Included in the six and three month periods last year is a one time gain of 
approximately $.5 million related to the accession of a portfolio of business 
from a new customer.  Revenues of Warrantech Europe (formerly Home Guarantee 
Corporation Plc acquired July 1995) were insignificant to consolidated gross 
revenues for the six and three month periods ended September 30, 1996.

The net increase in deferred revenues for the six month period ended 
September 30, 1996 as compared with the same period a year ago is directly 
attributable to the increased number of service contracts sold with a service 
period greater than one year during that period of time offset in part by 
amounts earned on expiring contracts during the same period.  The decrease in 
the net change in deferred revenues for the three month period ended 
September 30, 1996 is attributable to the mix and volume of contracts for the
three month period as compared with the same period a year ago.

Direct costs are those costs directly related to the production and acquisition
of service contracts.  Direct costs were $53,518,931 and $27,345,232 for the 
six and three month periods ended September 30, 1996, respectively, as compared
with $28,254,675 and $15,715,737 for the comparable period in fiscal 1995.  
The increase is directly attributable to the volume increases in contracts 
sold and a higher level of premium reflecting improved coverage on selected 
programs.

Service, selling and general and administrative expenses for the six and three
month periods ended September 30, 1996 were $16,024,164 and $8,613,528, 
respectively, as compared with $11,469,859 and $5,897,130  for the six and
three month periods ended September 30, 1995. These increases are related to 
payroll, payroll related and training costs arising from an increase in head 
count to meet the service requirements associated with the increased number of 
service contracts being sold as compared with the same levels a year ago and 
office facilities expense associated with additional office space. In addition,
service, selling, and general and administrative expenses include approximately
$710,279 and $368,793 for the six month and three month periods ended 
September 30, 1996 as compared with $225,622 for the three month period ended 
September 30, 1995 related to Warrantech Europe which was acquired in July of
1995. As a percentage of gross revenues service, selling, general and 
administrative expenses have decreased 5% and 3% for the six and three month 
periods ended September 30, 1996, respectively, which is indicative of 
management's efforts to contain its overhead costs while maintaining the 
highest quality of service levels to its customers.

The provision for bad debts results from the write-off of accounts considered 
uncollectible for the respective periods.

The increase in depreciation and amortization for the six month and three month
periods ended September 30, 1996 over the comparable periods a year ago is the 
result of increased depreciation resulting from capital additions related to 
the Company's ongoing upgrade of its computer systems and the additional 
equipment requirements resulting from the service level increases.

In April 1996, the Company and its international joint venture partner, AIG, 
agreed to terminate the joint venture, Techmark Services Ltd., effective 
January 1, 1996.  Under the terms of the agreement, AIG agreed to purchase the 
Company's forty-nine percent (49%) investment in the joint venture for 
$3,762,154.  As of March 31, 1996, the Company's carrying value of the joint
venture investment amounted to $1,885,674 which resulted in a pre-tax gain
ecognized in the three month period ended June 30, 1996 amounting to
$1,876,480.  The equity loss from the joint venture recognized in the six and 
three month periods ended September 30, 1995 amounted to $947,593 and $530,688,
respectively, and represents the Company's share of the joint venture losses 
for those periods.

The provision for income taxes is based on the Company's projection of its 
estimated effective tax rate for the fiscal year.  The higher effective tax 
rate for the six and three month periods ended September 30, 1995 reflects the 
non-deductibility of the foreign losses for U.S. purposes at that time.

Net income for the six and three month periods ended September 30, 1996 was 
$3,434,315 or $.24 per share and $1,315,080 or $.09 per share, respectively, 
as compared with $1,257,963 or $.08 per share and $607,503 or $.04 per share, 
respectively, calculated on the same basis a year ago.  The earnings per share
for the three month period ended September 30, 1996 includes the effect of the 
gain on the sale of the Company's joint venture in the first quarter of fiscal 
1996  of $.08 per share (refer to footnote 3 ).

Liquidity and Financial Resources

The Company believes that internally generated funds will be sufficient to 
finance its current operations for at least the next twelve months.  Cash 
provided by operations during the six month period ended September 30, 1996
amounted to $4,378,417 which is principally attributable to new accounts as 
compared with comparable levels of accounts receivable at September 30, 1995.

The Company has a line of credit with a bank which provides for a maximum 
aggregate borrowing up to $10 million.  The line of credit is secured by 
certain accounts receivable and has been renewed and now expires on August 31, 
1997.  At September 30, 1996, the Company did not have any borrowings 
outstanding under the line of credit.

In connection with the Company's ongoing upgrade of its information systems, 
the Company has financed additional equipment during the six and three month 
periods ended September 30, 1996 through capital lease transactions amounting 
to $917,326 and $434,649, respectively.

In connection with the sale of the Company's joint venture interest to AIG, the
Company agreed to repurchase 3,234,697 shares of convertible exchangeable 
preferred stock held by AIG at their redemption value of $6,430,000.  This 
amount was offset by the amount due the Company for the sale of its investment,
with the net amount due AIG of $2,395,960 resulting in a three year, 
non-interest bearing note payable.  The note is payable in 11 equal quarterly 
installments of $205,000 commencing June 30, 1996, with a final installment of
$140,960 due March 1999.  Also, as part of the agreement, AIG agreed to pay the
Company $1,480,000 related to amounts due the Company under its profit sharing 
arrangement.  In connection with this payment, the Company issued an
irrevocable letter of credit to the benefit of AIG through December 31, 2002 
which can be drawn against by AIG in the event that the ultimate profit sharing
amount due the Company is less than the amount paid.  It is anticipated at this
time that no amounts will be due AIG under this letter of credit.

The effect of inflation has not been significant to the Company since its 
formation.

PART II. Other Information


Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         A.   No material developments regarding litigation have occurred 
              since March 31, 1996, except for the following:

              The Oak Agency, Inc. and The Oak Financial Services, Inc. v. 
              Warrantech Dealer Based Services,Inc. "WDBS")The Oak Agency, Inc.
              et. al. v. Warrantech Corporation, et. al.

              On October 10, 1996, WDBS requested permission from the Court to 
              file a counterclaim against the Oak companies, as well as James 
              Nerad and John Peterson, the majority shareholders and principal 
              officers of the Oak companies.  WDBS'counterclaims include claims
              for (i) civil conspiracy, (ii) breach of contract, and (iii)
              tortuous interference with WDBS' contractual relationships.  On 
              October 16, 1996, WDBS filed a motion to consolidate this case 
              with the lawsuit Oak previously filed against Warrantech 
              Corporation, Joel San Antonio, and William Tweed.  Hearings on 
              all of these motions are scheduled for November 6, 1996. In 
              defense of the  lawsuit filed by the Oak companies against the 
              Company and the individual defendants, each of the defendants has
              set forth numerous legal defenses to the Oak companies' claims. 
              The Court has ordered that all discovery in each of these actions
              must be completed by February 28, 1997 and set the date of trial 
              for April 7, 1997.

 
              In the Matter of the Arbitration between David Robertson, 
              Claimant and Warrantech Corporation and Warrantech Automotive, 
              Respondents

              The arbitration has been scheduled to be heard on November 18 and
              19, 1996.
 
              For further information, refer to the consolidated financial 
              statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 
              10-K for the year ended March 31, 1996.
