                                       Item 2.
                              HMG WORLDWIDE CORPORATION
                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                   OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Three Months Ended March 31, 1995 as Compared to the 
  Three Months Ended March 31, 1994

     Net revenues were $11 million for the three months  ended March 31, 1995 as
compared to  $17.6 million  for the  three  months ended  March 31,  1994.   The
decrease in  net  revenues from  period to  period was  due  principally to  the
effects  of  (i)  reductions  in  capital  and  marketing  expenditures  of  two
significant clients of  an aggregate of $4.2 million,  (ii) revenues of $629,000
attributable to a  roll out of a  merchandising display system during  the first
quarter  of 1994  which was not  repeated in  1995, and  (iii) a decline  in net
revenues  from  international operations  of  $909,000.    The decrease  in  net
revenues realized by  the Company from two significant  clients were principally
the  result  of these  clients'  deferrals or  reductions  in their  capital and
marketing expenditures  for budgetary and  other reasons.  Reduced  shipments to
such  clients  may continue  if  they  continue  such budgetary  reductions  and
deferrals.  There can be no  assurance that net revenues and shipments to  these
clients will resume  at historical  levels.   The decline in  net revenues  from
international  operations was due to a  decline in production orders from period
to period from its local client base.

     Gross profit for  the three months ended March 31, 1995 was $2.3 million as
compared  to $4.9  million for  the  three months  ended  March 31,  1994.   The
decrease in gross profit of $2.6 million was principally a result of the decline
in net  revenues.   For the  three months  ended March  31, 1995  and 1994,  the
Company's  gross margin  was 21.3%  and 27.6%, respectively.   The  gross margin
decrease  was due  principally  to  (i) an  unfavorable  production revenue  mix
resulting in  a 3.1%  decrease and  (ii) the  underabsorption of  fixed overhead
expenses as a percentage of net revenues of 3.2%.

     Selling,  general and  administrative expense  for the  three months  ended
March 31, 1995  was $4.6 million as compared to $3.8  million for the comparable
period in  1994.  The $869,000 increase from  period to period was principally a
result  of (i)  the addition of  new senior  marketing personnel from  period to
period and (ii) the opening of a new marketing office in Detroit.

     For the three months  ended March 31, 1995, the  Company generated interest
income  of $159,000 as compared to $19,000  for the three months ended March 31,
1994.  This increase was attributable to that portion of the net proceeds of the
Company's   public  offering,  not   immediately  required  for   the  Company's
operations,  that were invested  in interest  bearing marketable  securities and
commercial paper.

     As a result of the  foregoing factors, the Company generated a net  loss of
$2.3 million, or $0.31  per share, for the three months ended  March 31, 1995 as
compared to net  income of $855,000, or  $0.14 per share,  for the three  months
ended March 31, 1994.  

Stockholders' Equity

     Stockholders' equity  decreased $2.2  million to $18  million at  March 31,
1995  from $20.2  million at December  31, 1994.   The decrease  in stockholders
equity as of March  31, 1995 was due principally to the net loss from operations
of $2.3 million.

Income Taxes
 
     At  December  31,  1994,  the Company  has  available  approximately  $10.9
million in net operating  loss carryforwards which expire during  the years 2001
through 2010.

     The Company's income  tax provision for  the three months  ended March  31,
1995 was $11,000  as compared to $385,000 for  the three months ended  March 31,
1994.  The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was

                            HMG WORLDWIDE CORPORATION
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
          OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued

comprised principally of  state and  local tax alternative  minimum taxes.   The
income tax  provision for the  three months ended  March 31, 1994  represents an
effective rate  of 41.5% comprised of 30.1% relating  to Federal taxes and 11.4%
for state and local taxes.   The Federal statutory rate  of 34% is greater  than
the above Federal  effective rate due to  the effect of the deduction  for state
and  local  income taxes.   The  three months  ended March  31, 1994  income tax
provision is offset  to the extent  of $312,000, resulting  from the income  tax
benefit  of utilizing  the  net  operating loss  carryforward  available to  the
Company.   The net income  tax provision of  $73,000 for the three  months ended
March 31,  1994 results  principally from Federal,  state and  local alternative
minimum taxes.

Inflation

     The  effect  of  inflation  on  the   Company's  operations  has  not  been
significant to date.

Backlog

     At March 31, 1995, the Company's  aggregate backlog was approximately $19.1
million as compared to $19.5  million and $18.7 million at December 31, 1994 and
March 31, 1994,  respectively.  Approximately 54%  of such backlog at  March 31,
1995  was  attributable  to  three   customers.  The  Company  anticipates  that
substantially all such backlog at March 31,  1995 will be filled during the next
nine months.   Due to quarter to  quarter fluctuations in the  Company's backlog
levels due to the timing, nature, and size of its merchandising system programs,
the  Company's backlog  levels are  not necessarily an  indicator of  future net
revenue levels.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash  and  cash  equivalents  at  March  31,  1995  and  December  31, 1994
aggregated  $11.5 million  and  $6.5  million, respectively.    In addition,  at
December 31, 1994, the Company had investments  of $6.8 million in highly liquid
marketable securities.   The Company's increase in cash and  cash equivalents of
$5 million  for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was due principally to the
net effects  of (i) net  cash used in operations  of $3.3 million,  (ii) capital
expenditures  of $129,000,  (iii) the  addition  of marketable  securities as  a
component of  cash and  cash equivalents  of $6.8  million,  (iv) proceeds  from
borrowings under the Company's revolving line of  credit with its bank lender of
$1.8  million  and (v)  principal  debt  payments of  $245,000.    The Company's
negative cash flows  from operations for the  three months ended March  31, 1995
resulted principally from  the aggregate reduction of $493,000  of the Company's
general liabilities,  increases in current and  other assets of  $818,000, and a
net loss from operations before non-cash charges of $2.0 million.

     The Company  has outstanding  a $3.9 million  secured, five-year  term loan
from its  bank lender (the  "Term Loan") at  March 31, 1995.   The Term  Loan is
payable in  equal quarterly installments  through 1999 and  bears interest at  a
rate  per annum equal  to either  the banks  prime rate plus  1 1/2% or  the 
London Interbank Offered Rate  plus 3 1/4%, at the Company's  election. The Term
Loan is secured by  a pledge of  all of the  capital stock  of certain of  the 
Company's wholly owned  subsidiaries and a lien  on all of  the assets of the  
Company and certain of its subsidiaries.   The obligor of the Term Loan is  HMG 
and the Term Loan is guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries.

     The Company  also has a $6.0  million secured, three-year  revolving credit
facility from the same  bank lender.  At March 31, 1995,  there was $2.9 million
outstanding thereunder.  The revolving credit facility bears interest at  a rate
per annum equal to the bank's prime rate plus 1%.  The revolving credit facility
is secured by a  pledge of all domestic accounts receivable of the Company.  The
obligor of the  revolving credit facility is HMG and such facility is guaranteed
by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries.

                            HMG WORLDWIDE CORPORATION
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
          OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued



     Pursuant to the terms of  the Term Loan and the revolving  credit facility,
the  Company is required to  maintain certain financial  ratios and, among other
things, is restricted from (i) declaring  or paying any dividends, (ii)  issuing
any additional indebtedness and (iii) making capital expenditures and aggregate 
lease payments  or incurring  total employee compensation  expense in  excess of
certain limitations.  As of March 31,  1995, the Company was in compliance  with
all financial covenants under  the Term Loan  and revolving credit facility,  as
amended.

     Consistent  with the  Company's growth  strategy, the  Company  is actively
seeking new clients and developing  new products to augment its current  revenue
shortfalls.   Over the past nine months, the Company added to its staff 8 senior
marketing personnel, each  with extensive experience in in-store  marketing.  No
assurances can be given that these efforts will result in any new clients or new
commercially viable products.

     Due to  the development lead  time of between  6 to 18  months from initial
concept to a national roll out of a merchandising display system,  revenues that
may be  generated by the new personnel  will not begin to be  realized until the
second half of 1995 or  early 1996.  The Company is currently  assessing certain
components of its  cost structure to reduce  certain fixed expenses in  order to
reduce the impact  of the current reduction  in net revenues experienced  by the
Company.

     As  a  result of  the  budgetary restraints  of  certain  of the  Company's
clients and  consequent reduced shipments  to such clients discussed  above, the
Company believes  that it may  continue to experience revenue  shortfalls during
the  first nine months of 1995  while it seeks to  diversify its client base and
improve its cost and expense  structures.  Due to the size  of the merchandising
display system programs and the underlining timing of the shipment of the orders
thereof, the  potential ranges  of revenue shortfalls  cannot be  estimated with
adequate certainty at this time.  However, the Company believes its current cash
and   short-term  investments,  backlog,  future  cash  flows  from  operations,
continued management of working capital requirements  and availability under its
revolving  credit  facility will  be  sufficient  to  support its  debt  service
requirements and  its other capital and operating needs.   However, there can be
no  assurance  that such  belief  will  prove  to  be correct,  that  additional
financing  will not be required, or that any such financing will be available on
commercially reasonable terms or otherwise.
