AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Kingsway Financial
Services Inc. as at December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 and the
consolidated statements of operations and retained earnings and changes in
financial position for the years then ended.  These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to
obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December
31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 and the results of its operations and the
changes in its financial position for the years then ended in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1994


Kingsway Financial Services Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the
Business Corporations Act (Ontario) on September 19, 1989.  On November 10,
1995 the Company filed articles of amendment deleting its "private company"
share restrictions.  On December 18, 1995 the Company completed an Initial
Public Offering and its shares were listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
Prior to the Company issuing shares to the public it was a wholly owned
subsidiary of Intercargo Corporation ("Intercargo"), a company listed on
NASDAQ in the United States.  After giving effect to the Initial Public
Offering, Intercargo owns approximately 50% of the Company's shares.

1.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

        These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
        with generally accepted accounting principles and include the
        accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Kingsway
        General Insurance Company ('Kingsway General').

   (a)  Investments:

        Fixed term investments are carried at amortized cost.  Investments
        in preferred and common shares are carried at cost.  Gains and
        losses on disposal of investments are determined as at the
        settlement date.

   (b)  Capital assets:

        Capital assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization.
        Amortization is provided on a declining balance basis at the
        following annual rates:



<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                      ASSETS                          RATE
                      ------                          ----
                      <S>                             <C>

                      Buildings                         5%
                      Computers and office equipment   30%
                      Automobiles                      30%
                      Furniture                        20%
</TABLE>


   (c)  Goodwill:

        Goodwill arising on the purchase of the subsidiary company is
        recorded at cost less accumulated amortization.  Goodwill is
        amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 years.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

   (d)  Deferred policy acquisition costs:

        Deferred policy acquisition costs represent certain costs such as
        commissions and premium taxes related to the acquisition of new and
        renewal premiums written during the period and are expensed as the
        related premiums are recorded as income.  The method followed in
        determining the deferred policy acquisition costs limits the
        deferral to its realizable value by giving consideration to losses
        and expenses expected to be incurred as premiums are earned.

   (e)  Unearned premiums:

        The Company recognizes premium income over the period covered by
        each individual insurance contract.  Unearned premiums represent
        premiums received by the Company for insurance contracts which are
        in force at the year end and will continue into the next fiscal
        year.

   (f)  Unpaid claims:

        The provision for unpaid claims includes adjustment expenses and
        represents an estimate for the full amount of all costs including
        investigation and the projected final settlements of claims
        incurred up to the balance sheet date on an undiscounted basis
        except for Ontario automobile disability benefits.  These estimates
        of future loss activity are necessarily subject to uncertainty and
        are selected from a wide range of possible outcomes.  These
        provisions are adjusted up or down as additional information
        affecting the estimated amounts becomes available during the course
        of claims settlement.  All changes in estimates are recorded as
        incurred claims in the period in which they are determined.

   (g)  Reinsurance ceded:

        Reinsurance premiums ceded, ceding commissions and reinsurance
        recoveries on claims incurred are recorded as reductions of the
        respective income and expense accounts.  Unearned premiums on
        business ceded and estimates of amounts recoverable from reinsurers
        on unpaid claims are recorded as deductions from unearned premiums
        and unpaid claims, respectively.  A contingent liability exists
        with respect to reinsurance ceded which could become a liability of
        the Company in the event that any reinsurer is unable to meet its
        obligations under the reinsurance agreement.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

   (h)  Deferred service charges:

        Service charge income on financed premiums is deferred and
        recognized as income over the period covered by each individual
        insurance contract.

2. ROLE OF THE ACTUARY AND EXTERNAL AUDITOR:

   The actuary is appointed by the board of directors of the Company.
   With respect to preparation of the audited financial statements, the
   actuary is required to carry out a valuation of the policy liabilities
   and to report thereon to the Company's shareholders.  The valuation is
   carried out in accordance with accepted actuarial practice and
   regulatory requirements.  The scope of the valuation encompasses the
   policy liabilities as well as any other matter specified in any
   direction that may be made by the Superintendent of Insurance
   (Ontario).  The policy liabilities consist of a provision for unpaid
   claims and adjustment expenses on the expired portion of policies and
   of future obligations on the unexpired portion of policies.  In
   performing the valuation of the liabilities for these contingent
   future events, which are by their very nature inherently variable,
   assumptions are made as to future loss ratios, trends, reinsurance
   recoveries, external claims expenses and other contingencies, taking
   into consideration the circumstances of the Company and the nature of
   the insurance policies.  The valuation is based on projections of
   future claims and claims adjustment expenses.  It is certain that
   actual future claims and claims adjustment expenses will not develop
   exactly as projected and may, in fact, vary significantly from the
   projections.  Further, the projections make no provision for
   extraordinary future emergence of either new classes of claims or
   claims categories not sufficiently recognised in the claims database.
   The actuary relies on data and related information prepared by the
   Company and makes use of the work of the auditor with respect to the
   actuary's responsibility for the data as set forth by the standards of
   the Canadian Institute of Actuaries.
   
   The external auditors have been appointed by the shareholders,
   pursuant to the Insurance Act, Ontario.  Their responsibility is to
   conduct an independent and objective audit of the consolidated
   financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
   standards and to report thereon to the shareholders.  In carrying out
   their audit, the auditors make use of the work of the actuary and his
   report on the policy liabilities of the Company.  The auditors' report
   outlines the scope of their audit and their opinion.

9.   STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS - KINGSWAY GENERAL

     The regulations of the Ontario Ministry of Financial Institutions
     require that part of Kingsway General's retained earnings be
     appropriated for assets that are non-admitted for regulatory purposes.
     At December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 Kingsway General
     appropriated retained earnings of $1,466,000 and $1,826,000,
     respectively.  The regulations also govern the payments of dividends
     from Kingsway General to the Company.

10.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

     On January 15, 1996 the Company issued additional Common Shares as
     described in note 5, above.

     On January 17, 1996 the Company entered into an agreement to purchase
     all of the issued shares of York Fire & Casualty Company ("York") from
     Highbourne Capital Corporation ("Highbourne").  The transaction is
     subject only to the final approval of the shareholders of Highbourne
     and is expected to close on or around February 29, 1996.

     The purchase price, which is expected to be approximately $7,000,000,
     is based on the adjusted Regulatory Capital of York as at December 31,
     1995.  The policy liabilities (unpaid claims, unearned premiums,
     deferred acquisition costs and premium deficiencies) at December 31,
     1995 will be re-evaluated as of December 31, 1996 and


<PAGE>   16

10.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (CONTINUED):

     December 31, 1997, based on experience to those dates.  As a result
     the purchase price of York may be altered as of each of these dates.

     At closing, the Company will pay $1,500,000 and will issue Common
     Shares valued at $10 per share for an aggregate value equal to
     one-third of the purchase price.  Highbourne will also receive a
     Warrant which entitles it to purchase as of February 28, 1997, and for
     30 days thereafter, that number of Common Shares valued at $10 per
     share having an aggregate value equal to one-half of the difference
     between the adjusted purchase price (evaluated as at December 31,
     1996) and the amounts paid at closing.  The warrant further allows
     Highbourne to purchase as of February 28, 1998, and for 30 days
     thereafter, that number of Common Shares valued at $10 per share equal
     to the remaining balance of the adjusted purchase price evaluated as
     at December 31, 1997.

     The maximum number of Common Shares which may be issued pursuant to
     the Warrant is 450,000 shares.  Should the balance due to Highbourne
     at February 28, 1998 exceed the shares to be issued under the Warrant,
     the balance will be paid to Highbourne in cash within 30 days of
     February 28, 1998.

Kingsway Financial Services Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the
Corporations Act of Ontario on September 19, 1989.  The Company is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Intercargo Corporation, a company resident in the
United States.

1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

        These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
        with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada and include
        the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Kingsway General
        Insurance Company.

    (a) Investments:

        Fixed term investments are carried at amortized cost.  Investments
        in preferred shares are carried at cost.  Gains and losses on
        disposal of investments are determined on a completed transaction
        basis.

    (b) Capital assets:
        
        Capital assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization.
        Amortization is provided at the following annual rates:

Automobiles                          Declining balance        30%     
Furniture                            Declining balance        20%     

- -----------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>                                                              



    (c) Goodwill:

        Goodwill arising on the purchase of the subsidiary company is
        recorded at cost less accumulated amortization.  Goodwill is
        amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years.

    (d) Deferred policy acquisition costs:

        Deferred policy acquisition costs represent certain costs such as
        commissions and premium taxes related to the acquisition of new and
        renewal premiums written during the period and are expensed as the
        related premiums are recorded as income.  The method followed in
        determining the deferred policy acquisition costs limits the
        deferral to its realizable value by giving consideration to losses
        and expenses expected to be incurred as premiums are earned.

1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

    (e) Unearned premiums:

        The Company recognizes premium income over the period covered by
        each individual insurance contract.  Unearned premiums represent
        premiums received by the Company for insurance contracts which are
        in force at the year end and will continue into the next fiscal
        year.

    (f) Unpaid claims:

        The provision for unpaid claims includes adjustment expenses and
        represents an estimate for the full amount of all costs including
        investigation and the projected final settlements of claims
        incurred prior to the balance sheet date on an undiscounted basis.
        These estimates of future loss activity are necessarily subject to
        uncertainty and are selected from a wide range of possible
        outcomes.

    (g) Reinsurance ceded:

        Reinsurance premiums ceded and reinsurance recoveries on claims
        incurred are recorded as reductions of the respective income and
        expense accounts.  Unearned premiums on business ceded and
        estimates of amounts recoverable from reinsurers on unpaid claims
        are recorded as deductions from unearned premiums and unpaid
        claims, respectively.  A contingent liability exists with respect
        to reinsurance ceded which could become a liability of the Company
        in the event that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations
        under the reinsurance agreement.



<PAGE>   23


2.  ROLE OF THE ACTUARY AND EXTERNAL AUDITOR:

    The actuary is appointed by the board of directors of the Company.
    With respect to preparation of these financial statements, the actuary
    is required to carry out a valuation of the policy liabilities and to
    report thereon to the Company's shareholder.  The valuation is carried
    out in accordance with accepted actuarial practice and regulatory
    requirements.  The scope of the valuation encompasses the policy
    liabilities as well as any other matter specified in any direction that
    may be made by the superintendent.  The policy liabilities consist of a
    provision for unpaid claims and adjustment expenses on the expired
    portion of policies and of future obligations on the unexpired portion
    of policies.  In performing the valuation of the liabilities for these
    contingent future events, which are by their very nature inherently
    variable, the actuary makes assumptions as to future rates of claim
    frequency and severity, inflation, reinsurance recoveries, expenses and
    other contingencies, taking into consideration the circumstances of the
    Company and the nature of the insurance policies.  The valuation is
    based on projections of future claims and claims adjustment expenses.
    It is certain that actual future claims and claims adjustment expenses
    will not develop exactly as projected and may, in fact, vary
    significantly from the projections.  Further, the projections make no
    provision for extraordinary future emergence of either new classes of
    claims or post-contractual expansion of policy coverage.  The actuary
    relies on data and related information prepared by the Company and
    makes use of the work of the auditor with respect to the actuary's
    verification of the underlying data used in the valuation.

    The external auditors have been appointed by the shareholder, pursuant
    to the Insurance Act, Ontario.  Their responsibility is to conduct an
    independent and objective audit of the consolidated financial
    statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and
    to report thereon to the shareholder.  In carrying out their audit, the
    auditors make use of the work of the actuary and his report on the
    policy liabilities of the Company.  The auditors' report outlines the
    scope of their audit and their opinion.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Intercargo Corporation:




Under date of March 28, 1996, we reported on the consolidated balance
sheets of Intercargo Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and
1994, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity
and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December
31, 1995, as contained in the 1995 annual report to stockholders.  These
consolidated financial statements and our report thereon are incorporated by
reference in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year 1995.  In connection
with our audits of the aforementioned consolidated financial statements, we
also audited the related consolidated supplementary financial statement
schedules as listed in the accompanying index.  These supplementary financial
statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these supplementary financial
statement schedules based on our audits.

In our opinion, such supplementary financial statement schedules, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as
a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein.

As discussed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
changed its method of accounting for investments to adopt the provisions of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities," at January 1, 1994.
