Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
DPL Inc.'s earnings for the first quarter of 1997 were $0.66 per
share, an increase from the $0.63 per share earned in the same period
a year ago. The sustained health of the West Central Ohio economy
along with continued company-wide cost control efforts combined to
offset mild first quarter weather. While weather during the quarter
was 13% milder than last year's first quarter, total retail electric
sales were down only 3%, with sales of electricity to business
customers up 1%.
An analysis of the financial condition and results of operations
for the first quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 is discussed
below.
Financial Condition
- -------------------
Construction plans are subject to continuing review and are
expected to be revised in light of changes in financial and economic
conditions, load forecasts, legislative and regulatory developments
and changing environmental standards, among other factors. DP&L's
ability to complete its capital projects and the reliability of future
service will be affected by its financial condition, the availability
of external funds at reasonable cost and adequate and timely rate
increases.
As of March 31, 1997, DPL Inc.'s cash and temporary cash
investment balance was $70.8 million. In addition, $206.6 million was
invested in debt and equity financial assets.
DP&L has available to it $97 million in short-term informal lines
of credit. DPL Inc. and its subsidiaries have $200 million available
through a Revolving Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement"). As of
March 31, 1997, DPL Inc. had no outstanding borrowings under this
Credit Agreement. DP&L has authority from the Public Utilities
Commission of Ohio ("PUCO") to issue short term debt up to
$200 million with a maximum debt limit of $300 million including loans
from DPL Inc. under the terms of the Credit Agreement.
DP&L anticipates that it has sufficient capacity to issue First
Mortgage Bonds to satisfy its requirements in connection with the
financing of its construction and refinancing programs during the five
year period 1997-2001.
On May 1, 1997, DP&L redeemed the 5-5/8% First Mortgage Bonds
Series in the amount of $40 million which matured on that date.

<PAGE>
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Electric revenues decreased by $11.5 million for the first
quarter 1997. A slight increase in sales to business customers was
more than offset by the effects of warmer weather.
Interest and other income was $5.9 million higher than the
corresponding quarter of 1996 primarily due to a gain on an investment
sale.
Fuel and purchased power decreased $6.5 million from first
quarter 1996 as a result of decreased electric sales and purchased
power expenses.
Gas purchased for resale increased $2.3 million from the same
period a year ago. Higher gas costs were partially offset by lower
sales due to the milder weather.
Operation and maintenance expenses were $2.2 million lower in the
first quarter of 1997. Decreased customer program expenditures and a
downward adjustment to the actuarially determined pension and retiree
health care expenses were partially offset by higher insurance and
claims costs.
Income taxes decreased $4.6 million compared to the first three
months last year due to lower taxable income.

Part II. Other Information
---------------------------
Item 5. Other Information.
Rate Regulation and Government Legislation
- ------------------------------------------
On April 24, 1996, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
("FERC") issued final rules requiring all electric utilities that own
or control transmission facilities to file open-access transmission
service tariffs. In compliance with these rules, on January 2, 1997,
DP&L re-filed its open-access tariff with FERC. On March 4, 1997,
FERC issued its Order No. 888-A, an order on rehearing of Order No.
888. In this new order, FERC reaffirmed many of its positions
addressed in the original order relating to stranded cost and open
access transmission service, and required transmission owning
utilities to refile their open access tariffs to incorporate some
minor language changes by July 15, 1997.
On February 27, 1997, after rehearing its earlier order on the
subject, the PUCO issued guidelines for the implementation of
conjunctive electric service. These guidelines govern the terms and
conditions under which different service locations may be aggregated
for cost-of-service, rate design, rate negotiation and billing
purposes. DP&L's conjunctive electric service tariff was filed with
the PUCO on March 31, 1997. DP&L filed an appeal of these guidelines
on April 25, 1997.
On April 11, 1996, the PUCO issued an Entry on Rehearing ordering
utilities to file interruptible electric service tariffs. On June 14,
1996, DP&L filed for approval of a non-firm electric service rate
schedule and replacement power rate riders. DP&L filed a revised
interruptible electric service tariff on April 4, 1997.
Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K.
(b) Reports on Form 8-K
-------------------
No reports on Form 8-K were filed by DPL Inc. during the quarter
ended March 31, 1997.
