Item 1. Financial Statements

Introduction

        The consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by AMCOR Capital Corporation ("Company"), without audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations.  The Company believes that the disclo-
sures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when
read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements
for the year ended August 31, 1995.  The financial information
presented reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a
fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.  

        In prior quarters the Company reported its operating results
on the basis of a full twelve-month period.  As a result of the Company's
change to an August 31 year-end to conform to its natural crop cycle,
the Company is now reporting its operating results on a normal fiscal
quarterly basis.

                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  May 31, 1996



1.   Income (loss) Per Common Share

     Primary and fully diluted earnings per common and common equivalent
     share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares
     of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during each
     period.  The computation takes into effect common shares issuable 
     under stock option plans.  No effect has been given to convertible
     preferred stock as the market price did not exceed the liquidation value
     of $10 per share.  The primary weighted average common and common equiva-
     lent shares, as applicable, outstanding during the three months ended
     May 31, 1996 and 1995 was 11,051,974 and 12,106,531, respectively.
     The fully diluted average common and common equivalent shares, as
     applicable, outstanding during the three months ended May 31, 1996
     and 1995 was 10,990,231 and 11,882,246, respectively. 

2.   Advances And Accounts Receivable Due From Affiliates and
     Other Related Parties

     Amounts receivable from affiliated partnerships consist primarily of
     farming costs incurred by the Company on behalf of various partnerships,
     and advances to certain partnerships collateralized by real and
     personal property.  These amounts are without interest and are due
     on demand. 

3.   Inventories                         
     
     Inventories consist primarily of farming costs incurred on the
     Company's own behalf, and certain chemicals and other farming 
     supplies.

     On November 30, 1995, the Company acquired a 50% interest in an Oregon
     farming operation, P.S. III Farms, L.L.C., in exchange for its San Luis
     Obispo vineyards and related repurchase option. The asset received in
     the exchange (P.S. III Farms, L.L.C.) was recorded at fair market value   
     as it was not possible to readily determine the value of the vineyards
     and option exchanged.  

     The Company is a general partner in a number of the affiliated partner-
     ships, for which its investment and equity in operations are not
     material.

     In 1994 the Company assigned its obligations under two settlement agree-
     ments to a related party in consideration for a reduction in a note receiv-
     able from the related party.  The assignment requires the related party to
     make settlement payments on behalf of the Company. The assignment does not
     bar the plaintiffs from looking for satisfaction from the Company if the 
     related party fails to perform as required under the settlement.  As of
     June 3, 1996, 100% of this liability has either been paid or there are cash
     funds on deposit collateralizing any unpaid portion.
     


8.   Common Stock and Stock Options

     During 1990, the Company granted options to purchase 2,169,201 shares of
     its common stock to officers and directors of the Company.  Of these
     options, 1,260,935 are exercisable at $.33 per share and expire on
     November 30, 1996.  These options were granted in connection with the
     1989 partnership restructure of two of the affiliated partnerships in
     which the officers of the Company were general partners.  

     The remaining 908,266 options are exercisable at $.80 per share and
     expire in July, 2000.  These options were granted in connection with the
     repurchase by the Company of shares from the officers and directors.  

     During 1995, the Company adopted a new stock option plan for Company
     employees and vendors.  The Company granted no options to purchase
     shares of its common stock under the plan during fiscal 1996 or 1995.

9.   Subsequent Event
	
	On June 3, 1996, the Company, on its own behalf and for certain
affiliates, received a $3.8 million funding of a $4.8 million credit
facility.  The proceeds were applied to retire underlying debt, and
for interim operating and harvest costs related to the 1996 table grape
crop.  The obligation matures in 15 years with interest payable currently
at a rate of 7.79%.  The net cash benefit to the Company will not be known
until a final crop accounting is rendered.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
        Results of Operations
      
OVERVIEW

     As outlined below, the Company's overall financial condition as 
compared to August 31, 1995, has not changed significantly.  However, 
total assets have increased over 53% to $33.4 million, due primarily to
the acquisition of a $6.9 million note receivable from an affiliate, 
advances to affiliates related to the San Antionio development, and 
inventories pertaining to the 1996 table grape crop.  

     The Company's current ratio decreased to 1.59 at May 31, 1996 from
2.00 at August 31, 1995, primarily due to the use of short-term borrowed
funds for current crop year inventories and affiliate advances.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        Revenues

        The Company's revenues are derived from two principal sources: 
(i) farming operations (including packing and cold storage
services), and (ii) management and marketing of transitional land and other
partnerships.  For the nine-months ended May 31, 1996, the Company's gross
revenues were slightly higher than the comparable nine-months ended 
May 31, 1995, due primarily to higher table grape revenues from an earlier
maturing crop.
 
        Crop Sales and Other Farm Income

        The Company generates fees and profits from its table grape and
date operations, both from third parties and its affiliates.  During a 
typical season, the table grape packing facility (which is subleased to 
the Company from a related party) processes approximately 1.5 million
boxes of table grapes, for which the combined gross processing and cooling
fees typically exceed $2 million.  The Company expects its crop sales to
continue to increase as additional properties are acquired through further
partnership terminations and more acreage is farmed by the Company.

        Crop sales and other farm income were significantly higher for the
nine-months ended May 31, 1996 as compared to the comparable nine-months
ended May 31, 1995, due to the earlier maturing crop.  Substantially all
of the Company's crop sales occur in the third and fourth quarters of the
fiscal year.

        Management and Other Fees

        The Company has earned in the past, and will continue to earn,
management and accounting fees from its managed affiliated partnerships,
although this source will continue to decrease as additional partnership
terminations and restructuring are completed.  A substantial portion of the
management fees is earned as a share of crop profits, although this is a
contingent source and not realizable in unprofitable periods.  The 
accounting fees generally range from $5,000 to $10,000 per year per
partnership.

<PAGE>

        The Company also earns fees related to its managed real-estate
operations.  During the nine-months ended May 31, 1996, the Company
recognized $438,000 of development fees related to a managed golf-course
and real estate project located southeast of San Antonio, Texas.  This
contributed to increasing overall management fee income by $357,000 over
the prior nine-months, to $851,000.

        Other Income

        Other income consists primarily of interest and other income. 
The Company generates interest income from note receivables from certain 
related partnerships, affiliates and third parties. 

        Other income decreased by $623,000 to $243,000 in the nine-months
ended May 31, 1996, due partially to reduced interest income resulting
from the collection of a $2,930,000 note receivable in January, 1996,
and nonrecurring income in the prior year related to the liquidaion of
affiliated partnerships due to forgiveness of franchise taxes on debts
assumed by the Company, and the repatriation of the Company's common stock.

        Desert Valley Date

        The Company owned a 50% general partnership interest in Desert
Valley Date prior to its sale in 1995.  Equity in income of Desert
Valley Date was $305,000 for the nine-month period ended May 31, 1995,
compared to nothing for the nine months ended May 31, 1996, due to
non-ownership.

        Real Estate Fees and Profit Participation

        The Company earns fees in connection with the management of its
transitional land partnerships.  Upon termination of these partnerships,
the Company can earn substantial incentive fees based on land sale profits. 
However, due to the generally depressed real estate market, this income
source has been minimal, and future income will depend upon a real estate
market recovery and resultant land sales.

        Operating Costs and Expenses

        The Company's total operating costs and expenses were $2,160,000
and $1,459,000 for the nine months ended May 31, 1996, and May 31, 1995,
respectively.  These costs and expenses include, among others, corporate
overhead expenses, farming costs and cost of crops sold.

        Farming Costs and Cost of Crops Sold

        Farming costs and costs of crops sold increased $614,000 in the
nine-month period ended May 31, 1996, as compared to the nine-month
period ended May 31, 1995, due to a larger portion of the earlier-maturing
crop being harvested in May versus June the previous year.

<PAGE>
        Other Operating Expenses

        Other operating expenses decreased $100,000 (20%) to $412,000 for
the nine months ended May 31, 1996, as compared to the nine months ended 
May 31, 1995, due to overall decreased overhead costs and the deferral
of $175,000 of such costs relating to the San Antonio development
agreement.

        Income from Operations

        The Company posted decreased operating income of $416,000 for the
nine months ended May 31, 1996, as compared to $1,074,000 for the 
comparable period ended May 31, 1995, primarily due to the absence of
income from Desert Valley Date combined with lower table grape margins
due to reduced yields on its Perlette variety.

        Gain (loss) On Asset Sales

        Gain (loss) on asset sales increased to a gain of $821,000 for the
nine months ended May 31, 1996 from a loss of $190,000 for the nine
months ended May 31, 1995 due to the gain on sale of the San Luis Obispo
vineyards and repurchase option of $830,000.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        The Company's liquidity, including its ability to access
conventional credit sources, while still limited, has significantly
improved over the last two years primarily due to the following
(i) consistent management of cash flow, (ii) implementation of
effective cost cutting measures, (iii)successful crop harvests, and 
(iv) disposal of marginal or non-producing assets.  These changes have
positioned the Company to obtain credit from more conventional, and less
costly sources, for which a $4.8 million credit facility is now in place,
with $3,780,000 having funded on June 3, 1996.

     In 1992 the Company entered into two settlement agreements related to 
civil lawsuits brought by investors.  The settlements required the Company
to make payments over a six-year period.  These settlements are secured by
certain of the Company's assets.  In August, 1994, a related party assumed
from the Company the two settlements in return for a reduction in a note it
owed to the Company.  As of June 3, 1996, 100% of this liability has either
been paid or there are cash funds on deposit collateralizing any unpaid
portion.

     On November 30, 1995 the Company sold, in a non-monetary transaction,
its San Luis Obispo vineyards and a related repurchase option to an
affiliated partnership for the entity's 50% interest in a farming
operation in Oregon. The transaction resulted in a gain of $830,000 and
also reduced advances due from an affiliated partnership by $508,000.

     In January, 1996 the Company collected a $2,930,000 note 
receivable and accrued interest which was due from a third-party.

     In addition to current liabilities of $9,385,000 at May 31, 1996,
the Company has $12,599,000 of long-term debt.  However, long and short
term liquidity are expected to continue to improve due to: 
(i) the successful completion of the 1996 table grape harvest which
should provide up to $10 million of revenues and (ii) the funding of the
$4.8 million credit facility coupled with a 1996 working capital line 
with a bank or institution.


     The Company also believes that it will realize future earnings as a
result of development fees related to the sale of affiliates' transitional
land properties, particularly from development fees derived from the San
Antonio project.  The anticipated general improvement of the real estate
market will be a key factor in the future success, if any, of the Company's
transitional land projects.
