                    INTERCARGO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation

  The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared
  pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
  Commission.  Certain information and note disclosures normally included in
  financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
  accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  The Company believes
  that the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all
  adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
  fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of June 30, 1996, and
  December 31, 1995, and the consolidated results of operations and the
  consolidated cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996, and
  1995.

  Beginning in December 1995, the Company sold 660,000 shares of Kingsway
  Financial Services Inc. stock to raise capital for planned expansion.  As a
  result, Kingsway is no longer a majority owned subsidiary and is accounted
  for using the equity method.  Accordingly, its results of operations and
  financial position are not consolidated with Intercargo at June 30, 1996.
  Amounts at June 30, 1995 have not been restated and include Kingsway on a
  consolidated basis.

  The results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 are
  not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

  These consolidated unaudited interim financial statements should be read in
  conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the
  December 31, 1995 Form 10-K filed by the Company.

2.   Earnings per Share

  Earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of
  shares outstanding which includes common stock equivalents (if dilutive)
  relating to outstanding options.

  The Company's common stock at June 30, 1996 consists of approximately 7.7
  million shares outstanding $1.00 par value per share.  The Company also has
  outstanding stock options to purchase in the aggregate 191 thousand shares of
  common stock.

3.   Long Term Debt

  The Company's bank line of credit has been increased from $10 million at
  December 31, 1995 to $15 million at June 30, 1996 in conjunction with
  changing to a LIBOR based interest rate structure.  The amount outstanding
  under the bank line of credit was approximately $9.7 million at June 30, 1996
  and December 31, 1995.

Item 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL
POSITION

OPERATING RESULTS

In December 1995, Kingsway Financial Services, Inc. undertook an initial public
offering on the Toronto Stock Exchange to raise capital for planned growth.
Intercargo participated in the offering by selling 660,000 shares to fund
expansion of its U.S. operations and entry into Hong Kong.  As a result,
Kingsway is no longer a majority owned subsidiary and is accounted for using
the equity method.  Accordingly, its results of operations and financial
position are not consolidated at June 30, 1996.  Amounts at June 30, 1995 have
not been restated and include Kingsway on a consolidated basis.  However, the
following discussion compares the revenues and expenses of the Company
exclusive of Kingsway, except as specifically noted.

Earned premium for U.S. and U.K. operations increased $3.4 million or 12.1% in
the first half of 1996 as compared to a 37.8% increase to $27.9 million for
first half of 1995.  Included in the current quarter's earned premium is $1.6
million of returned premium representing redundancies in off balance sheet loss
reserves maintained by reinsurers which were recaptured pursuant to a
restructing of the Customs bond treaty.  Consolidated earned premium for the
first six months of 1996 decreased 28.2% to $31.3 million compared to a 31.4%
increase to $43.6 million for the comparable period in 1995.  Included in the
earned premium for 1995 is $15.7 million relating to Kingsway.

Net investment income from U.S. and U.K. operations increased $74 thousand or
4.0% in the first half of 1996 over 1995. Consolidated net investment income
for the first six months of 1996 declined 34.8% to $2.0 million as compared to
a 43.4% increase to $3.0 million for the first six months of 1995.  Included in
the 1995 net investment income is $1.3 million relating to Kingsway.

Consolidated other income from U.S. and U.K. operations remained unchanged from
the first six months of 1995 to 1996.  Including Kingsway for 1995,
consolidated other income declined 75.4% to $95 thousand in the first six
months of 1996 as compared to a decrease of 36.6% to $387 thousand in the first
half of 1995.  Included in the other income for 1995 is $291 thousand of
premium financing income relating to Kingsway.

Losses and loss adjustment expenses for U.S. and U.K. operations for first six
months of 1996 increased $3.6 million or 27.7%.  During the current quarter,
the Company strengthened the marine loss reserves $1.0 million as prior year
development has exceeded expected levels.  The remainder of the increase is a
result of using more conservative loss ratios across all lines of business.
Consolidated loss and loss adjustment expenses for the first half of 1996
declined 30.8% to $16.1 million as compared to an increase of 28.6% to $23.2
million for the first half of 1995.  The 1995 loss and loss adjustment expenses
include $10.2 million relating to Kingsway.

U.S. and U.K. policy acquisition costs increased $1.4 million to $8.7 million
in the first half of 1996.  This increase is attributable to increased premium
volume and a lower deferral rate due to the more conservative loss ratios.
Consolidated policy acquisition costs for the six months of 1996 decreased $1.3
million or 12.8% as compared to an increase of $2.4 million or 31.8% for the
comparable period of 1995.  Included in the policy acquisition costs for 1995
is $2.8 million relating to Kingsway.

U.S. and U.K. other underwriting expenses increased $673 thousand during the
six month period ended June 30, 1996.  This increase is consistent with the
increase in premium volume.  Consolidated other underwriting expenses decreased
8.5% to $6.9 million in the first half of 1996.  This compares to a decrease of
$703 thousand in the first half of 1995.  The 1995 other underwriting expenses
include $1.9 million relating to Kingsway.

Consolidated net income for the first half of 1996, including our pro rata
share of Kingsway's earnings, decreased 30.8% to $2.9 million .  This compares
to an increase of 196.6% to $4.2 million in the first half of 1995.  Earnings
per share were $0.37 for the first six months of 1996 as compared to $0.54 for
the first six months of 1995.  There were approximately 7.7 million shares
outstanding for both periods for purposes of computing net income per share.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's total assets at June 30, 1996 increased to $121.2 million from
$116.2 million at December 31, 1995.  Stockholders' equity has increased to
$44.7 million during the first six months of 1996 from the $43.6 million at
December 31, 1995.  The net income from operations exceeded the decrease in the
market value of the investment portfolio and the dividend payment.  The Company
declared and paid a dividend of $0.09 per share on March 15, 1996 to holders of
record as of March 13, 1996.

The Company generated cash flow from operations of ($1.7 million) and  $6.4
million for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The Company utilizes a bank line of credit of $15.0 million to supplement
existing working capital.  This line is used to fund expansion and for general
corporate purposes.

RESULTS BY LINE (CONT.)

Net earned premium on the Company's U.S. and U.K. operations for the first six
months of 1996 has increased $3.4 million or 12.1% over the comparable period
in 1995.  Marine earned premium tallied the largest increase at $2.1 million.
Bond earned premium increased $1.4 million, though included in this increase is
$1.6 million of returned premium from restructuring the Customs bond
reinsurance treaty.  Professional liability and other property and casualty
earned premium remained substantially unchanged from prior year levels.

Excluding the effect of the $1.6 million returned premium, the combined ratios
for all lines of business have increased in the six months of 1996 over the
same period for 1995.  The combined ratio increases as more conservative loss
ratios are used and as limitations are placed on the deferral of certain
underwriting expenses.
