Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.
DPL Inc.'s earnings for the third quarter of 1997 were $0.44 per
share, up $0.02 from the third quarter earnings of $0.42 per share a
year ago. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997 earnings were
$1.45 per share, versus $1.40 per share earned in the same period last
year. Ongoing cost control efforts throughout the Company resulted in
a reduction in operating and maintenance expenses which offset retail
electric sales levels through September that were 1% below last year.
The financial condition and results of operations for the third
quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 are 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 September 30, 1997, DPL Inc.'s cash and temporary cash
investment balance was $31.5 million. In addition, $301.4 million was
invested in debt and equity financial assets.
DPL Inc. and its subsidiaries have $200 million available through
a Revolving Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement"). As of September
30, 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 also has $97 million
available in short-term informal lines of credit. As of September 30,
1997, DP&L had $6.0 million in commercial paper outstanding.
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.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Utility service revenues increased by $5.8 million from the third
quarter last year and decreased $18.1 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997. An increase in electric sales to other
utilities was the primary cause of the increase for the quarter.
Increases in electric industrial sales and sales to other utilities
were offset by reductions in other sales classes, due to the effects
of mild weather as well as lower fuel cost recovery rates, resulting
in the year-to-date variation.
Fuel and purchased power increased $1.7 million compared to the
corresponding quarter a year ago, and decreased $8.4 million year-to-
date compared to 1996. Increased purchased power expenses from higher
sales to other utilities caused the increase for the quarter.
Decreased retail electric sales and lower fuel costs were the primary
causes of the year-to-date variation.
Gas purchased for resale increased $1.1 million and $3.9 million,
respectively, for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1997. Higher natural gas costs were partially offset by
lower sales due to milder weather.
Operation and maintenance expense decreased from last year by
$3.8 million for the quarter and $17.2 million year-to-date. Lower
employee benefit costs from a downward adjustment to the actuarially
determined pension and retiree health care expenses, decreased
production maintenance, and overall cost containment efforts
contributed to the third quarter and year-to-date decreases.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.8 million for the
quarter and $2.7 million year-to-date compared to last year due to
increased depreciable plant base.
General taxes increased $1.1 million and $3.7 million compared to
the third quarter and year-to-date 1997, respectively, due to higher
property taxes from additional property.
Income taxes increased $1.7 million from the corresponding
quarter last year due to higher book income. Income taxes decreased
$4.7 million from the year-to-date 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. On July 31, 1997, FERC issued an order requiring
DP&L and other utilities to refile their open-access transmission
tariffs with FERC. DP&L filed their revised open-access transmission
tariffs on August 15, 1997.
On October 15, 1997, PUCO Commissioner David Johnson announced
that he will resign effective November 30, 1997. Commissioner Johnson
is serving a term that was scheduled to expire in April 1998.
Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K.
(b) Reports on Form 8-K
