                 DSI INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                                   
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   
                              (Unaudited)
                                  
                                  
1. REALIZATION OF ASSETS - GOING CONCERN

        The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
   prepared in contemplation of continuation of DSI Industries, Inc. ("DSI")
   as a going concern.  DSI, in particular its nursery and magnetic resonance
   imaging  segments,  sustained substantial losses from operations for each
   of the years ended November 30, 1995 and 1994. Management on August 18,
   1994 discontinued its magnetic resonance imaging segment due to the
   segment's recurring losses.  Management discontinued the nursery segment
   due to the significant losses incurred by it commencing in the third
   quarter of 1994 through April 6, 1995, the date the Board of Directors
   voted to discontinue the segment.  The accompanying  consolidated financial
   statements reflect these segments as discontinued operations. 
   
        The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect a working
   capital deficiency of approximately $1,995,000 at August 31, 1996 of which
   approximately $635,000  is attributable to DSI and its remaining operating
   subsidiary, Norton Drilling Company ("Norton").  The estimated liabilities
   of the discontinued segments exceed the  assets of these segments by 
   $1,360,033.  DSI  is a holding company and accordingly does not generate
   operating revenues.  All costs and expenses of DSI have previously been
   funded by charging the operating segments management fees.  As management
   fees have diminished due to the discontinuance of the aforementioned
   segments, DSI will require increased funding from Norton for its expenses
   as well as the extinguishment of the liabilities of the discontinued
   segments.
   
        Norton's agreements with its secured creditors prohibit virtually any
   loans, dividends, advances, guarantee of indebtedness or payments to DSI or
   its subsidiaries. Management is of the opinion that Norton  will be able to
   continue as a going concern if DSI is successful in restructuring the
   indebtedness of its discontinued operations.
   
        DSI's limited ability to obtain funds and its inability to obtain
   adequate financing to meet its obligations and the obligations of its
   discontinued segments raises substantial doubt concerning the ability of DSI 
   to realize the benefits of its assets and satisfy its liabilities as they
   mature in the ordinary course of business.  Unless management's 
   negotiations with the creditors of the discontinued segments to restructure
   the debts are successful, DSI may have to cause these subsidiaries to seek
   protection from their creditors under the bankruptcy laws of the United
   States.  Due to cross-corporate guarantees between DSI and its subsidiaries,
   the possible filing of such petition in bankruptcy court could cause DSI,
   and possibly Norton, to also seek protection in bankruptcy court.
   
        These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about DSI's
   ability to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying  consolidated
   financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
   recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount
   and classification of liabilities that might result should DSI be unable to
      continue as a going concern.<PAGE>
   2. PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     
        In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated balance
   sheet as of August 31, 1996 and the condensed consolidated statements of
   operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the nine and three
   months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995 include all adjustments (consisting
   only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
   financial position as of August 31, 1996, the results of operations and cash
   flows for the nine and three months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995. Certain
   reclassifications have been made to the 1995 statements of operations and
   cash flows in order for them to conform to the 1996 presentation. The
   accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 1995 is presented
   herein as unaudited, inasmuch as such balance sheet was prepared from the
   balance sheet set forth in the audited consolidated financial statements and
   does not reflect all disclosures and footnotes contained in those audited
   consolidated financial statements.
   
     The results of operations for the nine and three months ended August 31,
   1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the
   entire year.
   
   3. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
   
     The computation of net income (loss) per common and common equivalent
   share for the nine and three months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995 is based
   upon the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. Common stock
   equivalents were not used in the computation as they were not dilutive in
   either period. Fully diluted earnings per common share, which assumes the
   conversion of the dilutive effect of stock options at August 31, 1996 and
   1995 were not dilutive.
   
   4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     On August 18, 1994, DSI discontinued the MRI Segment due to recurring
   losses experienced by the segment. Accordingly, management estimated future
   costs and expenses to dispose of the segment resulting in a $750,000 charge
   to operations in fiscal 1994. During 1995, certain assets and liabilities
   considered in management's previous estimate were either foreclosed,
   garnished or confiscated resulting in full or partial extinguishment of the
   underlying liabilities. As a result, management revised its initial estimate
   to consider final settlement of remaining obligations of the segment. Such
   revisions resulted in a $668,200 credit to the provision for loss for the
   discontinued segment. The remaining net liabilities of the segment relate
   to claims filed by the segment's former landlord for past due rent and
   obligations remaining under a capital lease obligation. Management is
   currently of the opinion that if negotiations with the remaining creditors,
   principally consisting of the former landlord and lessor, are not successful
   in settling their obligations, DSI will cause the segment to seek protection
   from the creditors under bankruptcy proceedings. It is possible that final
   settlement will result in the payment of amounts significantly less than
   amounts currently recorded as liabilities which would result in a
   significant gain realized in the reversal of such recorded liabilities.
   Management's estimate of the potential gain is between approximately $68,000
      and $468,000.<PAGE>
                                
                                
                                
                                
                                
                                 4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (Continued)
   
     Effective November 30, 1994, DSI discontinued the Nursery Segment due to
   significant operating losses incurred by that segment beginning in 1994. The 
   financial statements for 1994 retroactively reflected management's decision
   to discontinue this segment and a charge to operations of $3,000,000 for the
   estimated loss to be incurred in disposing of the segment and the estimated
   losses incurred from November 30, 1994 through April 6, 1995. 
   
     In August, 1995 the Nursery Segment and DSI entered into agreements with
   two of its secured creditors, both of whom are banks, and an unrelated third
   party (purchaser) in which the purchaser acquired the collateralized debt
   of one bank and immediately foreclosed on the debt. The segment surrendered
   to the purchaser all of the assets collateralizing this indebtedness on
   September 6, 1995. The purchaser took title to assets with a basis of
   $4,265,000, before the 1994 writedown to net realizable value, in exchange
   for extinguishment of $1,293,000 in collateralized debt plus assumption by
   the purchaser of a $330,000 note payable and the purchaser's guarantee to
   indemnify the segment and DSI for its liabilities to certain other creditors
   in an amount not to exceed $404,000. The bank has released  DSI from its
   guarantee of this obligation.
   
     The agreement with the other secured bank requires the purchaser to repay
   the outstanding balance of a mortgage note in the amount of $2,128,000 which
   was collateralized by the segment's real property which had a basis of
   $1,465,000, before the 1994 writedown to net realizable value. DSI will
   remain liable as guarantor for this indebtedness until the purchaser has
   fully satisfied this obligation. 
   
     Upon completion of those transactions, an additional charge to operations
   of $2,194,000 was made to reflect revised estimates of the ultimate loss to
   be incurred in disposing of this segment. The additional charge was
   primarily due to greater than expected losses from the final wind down of
   operations of the segment and lower than expected net realized values of
   property and equipment upon completion of the aforementioned transactions.
   The remaining net liability includes significant amounts owed to several
   creditors as well as the estimated future costs and expenses of disposal. 
   
   On June 6, 1996, the Company effected the closing of a Stock Purchase and
   Settlement Agreement, by and between certain of the Company's former
   directors and a corporation owned by these former directors and the Company
   and all of its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries. The agreement
   in part provided for indemnification to the Company from the former
   directors for tax claims amounting to approximately $280,000. The Company
   delivered $30,000 to be used to assist in the resolution of these tax
   claims. The net effect of this transaction is included in operations under
   the heading "gain on disposal of certain discontinued operations".<PAGE>

   4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (Continued)

     On July 22, 1996, DSI effected the closing of a Stock Purchase Agreement
   dated as of July 19, 1996, by and between an unrelated third party
   (buyer)and DSI. Pursuant to or in accordance the with the agreement,
   effective upon the closing, the buyer purchased all the outstanding shares
   of common stock of Sunny's Plants, Inc., the sole stockholder of all the
   capital stock of Sunshine Botanicals, Inc., Interior Plant Supply, Inc. and
   Sunny's Trucking, Inc. from DSI in consideration of certain releases and the
   payment by DSI to the buyer of $10,000. In addition, all the then directors
   and officers of the corporations sold resigned from their respective
   positions with those corporations. The credit to operations for the
   transaction was approximately $1,875,000.
   
     There can be no certainty that any or all of the possible gains in the
   MRI Segment or the remaining possible gains in the Nursery Segment will ever
   be realized. Their ultimate realization is dependent on a number of factors
   including, but not limited to, the dissolution of the underlying
   subsidiaries without liability or payment thereof extending to the
   continuing operations of the Company, or the extinguishment of existing
   liabilities under Federal bankruptcy laws. While management believes either
   of the two courses of action will relieve the segments of their obligations
   and result in gains, there can be no certainty of such due to potential
   rights of creditors under applicable state laws and/or the intricacies of
   meeting the technical requirements of  Federal bankruptcy laws. Because of
   the inherent problems which could arise under either course of action, the
   outcome is subject to many issues which are outside the control of
   management and therefore, the amount of liabilities that may be extinguished
   and the possible resulting gain, if any, that would be recognized is
   uncertain at this time.
   
     The net liabilities of the discontinued operations at August 31, 1996 and
   November 30, 1995 are as follows:
   
                                                 August 31, November 30,
                                                    1996         1995   
   Notes payable                                 $  918,640   $1,106,207
   Accounts payable and other liabilities           286,393    2,253,833
   Estimated loss on disposal of segments           155,000      155,000
   
                                                  1,360,033    3,515,040
   Net consolidated liabilities of
       discontinued segments                     $1,360,033   $3,515,040
   
   
        As of January 26, 1996, the subsidiaries of DSI which comprise the
   discontinued Nursery Segment were defendants in 24 actions seeking payment
   of past liabilities owed to suppliers, lessors and other creditors of the
   Nursery Segment. Such actions, in which damages aggregating in excess of
   $611,000 are sought, have been brought in Dade, Orange, Palm Beach, Lake and
   Broward counties in Florida. The Nursery Segment does not intend to contest
   such claims.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
   
        In conjunction with Norton's debt restructuring in May 1993, the
   Chairman of the Board of Directors of DSI and another officer of Norton
   advanced Norton $410,000 and $90,000, respectively. Interest charged to
   operations on the notes payable was approximately $32,000 and $48,000  for
   the nine months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995. These notes are convertible
   into DSI's common stock at $0.44 per share for an aggregate 1,136,364 shares
   of DSI's common stock.
   
        During the year ended November 30, 1995, two directors of DSI, a
   corporation owned by a director of DSI and an officer of Norton, along with
   Norton, participated in a joint venture in three wells. The joint venture
   contracted with Norton to drill and equip the wells and incurred costs
   totalling approximately  $788,000  through August 31, 1996. Each joint
   venture participant was liable for their pro rata  share of the costs
   incurred. Norton's share was approximately $218,000. The aggregate costs to
   be borne by the four related parties mentioned above was approximately
   $87,000 of which approximately $300 and $11,000 was outstanding at August
   31, 1996 and November 30, 1995, respectively.
   
        During the period ending May 31, 1996, Norton sold substantially all
   of its interest in the joint venture to a corporation in which the two
   directors of DSI, the corporation owned by a director of DSI and the officer
   of Norton previously mentioned, are stockholders. The sales price of the
   interest sold was $200,000 and Norton realized a gain on the sale of the
   interest of approximately $96,000. The corporation's pro rata share of the
   costs from the date of sale to August 31, 1996 were approximately $4,000 of
   which approximately $1,400 was outstanding at August 31, 1996.
   
   6. PURCHASE OF TREASURY STOCK
   
        On June 6, 1996, DSI effected the closing of a stock purchase and
   settlement agreement dated as of May 30, 1996, by and between two directors
   of DSI and a corporation owned by these two directors, DSI, the  MRI segment
   and the Drilling segment.
   
        Pursuant to or in accordance with the agreement, effective upon the
   closing, DSI purchased 1,083,096 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per
   share, of DSI from the corporation owned by the two directors of DSI for
   approximately $87,000. The two directors resigned from the board of
   directors of DSI and from all offices held by them with DSI and with any of
   the DSI affiliates. In addition a third director resigned from the board of
   directors of DSI. As a part of the agreement, DSI also delivered $30,000 to
   be used to assist in the resolution of certain pending tax claims against
   the Nursery Segment, and such to former directors.
   
                                  
                                 
                                 
                                 
                                 
                                 <PAGE>
                                 
                                 
                                 
 Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
 Results of Operations
 
 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
    As of August 31, 1996, DSI had a working capital deficiency of
 approximately $1,995,000 and cash and cash equivalents of approximately
 $419,000 as compared to a working capital deficiency of approximately
 $7,040,000 and cash and cash equivalents of approximately $283,000 at
 November 30, 1995. For the nine months ended August 31, 1996, DSI
 provided approximately $ 684,000 from continuing operations and provided
 approximately $215,000 from its financing activities. For the nine months
 ended August 31, 1995, DSI used approximately $442,000 in continuing
 operations and provided approximately $1,238,000 from its financing
 activities. The increase in the funds provided by operations was
 attributable to the increase in net income, collections of insurance
 proceeds on two claims, utilization of prepaid expenses and a lesser
 reduction in accounts payable. Conversely, cash funds were used in
 operations through an increase in accounts receivable.
 
    Significant expenditures of DSI primarily consist of the Drilling
 Segment's continual acquisition of replacement drilling equipment, such
 as drill collars, drill pipe, engines and transportation equipment to
 adequately maintain the operating status of the drilling fleet. Such
 expenditures for the nine months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995
 approximate $963,000, and $776,000, respectively. Capital expenditures
 increased in the current nine month period as compared to the nine month
 period in the prior year due to an increase in the purchase of drill pipe
 and collars used on the drilling rigs. The Drilling Segment anticipates
 capital expenditures of approximately $1,500,000 for fiscal 1996 to be
 funded from new financing received in August 1996, cash flows from
 operations and proceeds from sales of assets. Due to numerous
 uncertainties regarding the availability, price and delivery of certain
 drilling equipment, the Registrant's anticipated level of capital
 expenditures may fluctuate commensurate with the volatility of the
 industry.
 
    Management believes that cash flows from operations and borrowings 
 should be sufficient to fund operations and adequately service the
 Registrant's debt for the next twelve months. However, the ability of the
 Registrant to perform under the existing terms of its debt agreements and
 adequately extinguish certain other liabilities associated with its
 discontinued segments is contingent upon the Registrant's ability to
 successfully negotiate with its creditors (primarily creditors of the MRI

 Results of Continuing Operations
 
    Comparison of the nine months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995
 
    For the nine months ended August 31, 1996 contract drilling revenues
 were approximately $18,536,000 as compared to $15,207,000 for the nine
 months ended August 31, 1995, an increase of $3,329,000 or 21.9%. Average
 rig utilization was 71.2% in the nine months ended August 31, 1996
 compared to 59.0% in the nine months ended August 31, 1995. The increase
 in drilling revenues was due to an increase in drilling utilization and
 the total number of wells drilled. In the nine months ended August 31,
 1996 and 1995, 216 and 144 wells were drilled, respectively.

    Direct job and rig costs for the nine months ended August 31, 1996
 were approximately $16,242,000 or 87.6% of contract drilling revenues as
 compared to $13,520,000 or 88.9% of contract drilling revenues for the
 nine months ended August 31, 1995.
 
     General and administrative expenses  were approximately $806,000
 for the nine months ended August 31, 1996 as compared to $612,000 for the
 nine months ended August 31, 1995. The increase in general and
 administrative expenses was due to the hiring of an additional sales
 representative,  increases in other salaries as provided for in
 employment contracts relative to the drilling segment and an increase in
 professional fees.
 
    Interest expense was approximately $275,000 in both nine  month
 periods ended August 31, 1996 and 1995.
 
    In the nine months ended August 31, 1996, income before income taxes 
 and discontinued operations was approximately $410,000 as compared to a
 loss of approximately $113,000 in the nine months ended August 31, 1995. 
 The increase in net income was due mainly to the increase in drilling
 revenues and rig utilization.
 
    Comparison of the three months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995
                                
    For the three months ended August 31, 1996 contract drilling revenues
 were approximately $7,294,000 as compared to $5,675,000 for the three months
 ended August 31, 1995, an increase of $1,619,000 or 28.9%. Average rig
 utilization was 87.1% in the three months ended August 31, 1996 compared to
 61.4% in the three months ended August 31, 1995. The increase in drilling
 revenues was due to an increase in rig utilization and the number of wells
 drilled. In the three months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995, the number of
 wells drilled was 88 and 48, respectively.
 
    Direct job and rig costs for the three months ended August 31, 1996 were
 approximately $6,469,000 or 88.7% of contract drilling revenues as compared
 to $4,872,000 or 85.9% of contract drilling revenues for the three months
 ended August 31, 1995. Drilling costs as a percent of revenues increased due
 to costs overruns on a job drilled on a footage basis in the current three
 month period.
 
    General and administrative expenses  were approximately $259,000 for the
 three months ended August 31, 1996 as compared to $221,000 for the three
 months ended August 31, 1995. The increase in general and administrative
 expenses was due to the hiring of an additional sales representative,
 increases in other salaries as provided for in employment contracts relative
 to the drilling segment and an increase in professional fees.
 
    Interest expense was approximately $80,000 in the three  month period
 ended August 31, 1996 compared to $109,000 for the three months ended August
 31, 1995, a decrease of $29,000. The decrease is attributable to a reduction
 in interest rates and the payoff of some debt.
 
    In the three months ended August 31, 1996, income before income taxes 
 and discontinued operations was approximately $174,000 as compared to $154,000
 in the three months ended August 31, 1995.   The increase in drilling revenues
 was offset by cost overruns on a footage job, therefore, net income did not
 change significantly.
