                         September 30, 1997
                            (Unaudited)


NOTE 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

Consolidation

The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include the accounts of 
Medicore, Inc., Medicore's 69.1% owned subsidiary, Dialysis Corporation 
of America ("DCA") and Medicore's 58.9% owned subsidiary, Techdyne, Inc. 
("Techdyne") (including its wholly-owned subsidiaries Lytton Incorporated 
("Lytton"), Techdyne (Scotland) Limited ("Techdyne (Scotland)"), and 
Techdyne Livingston Limited (a subsidiary of Techdyne (Scotland))), collec-
tively known as the Company.  All material intercompany accounts and 
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  See Note 9.


Major Customers

A majority of the Company's electro-mechanical sales which consists of 
electronic and electro-mechanical products primarily manufactured to 
customer specifications and designed for original equipment manufacturers 
and distributors in the data processing, telecommunications, instrumenta-
tion and food preparation equipment industries, are to certain major
customers.  Approximately 53% of the sales of Lytton, Techdyne's recently 
acquired subsidiary (see Note 9) for each of its last three fiscal years 
prior to being acquired by the Company were to PMI Food Equipment Group 
("PMI").  Sales to PMI by Lytton for the two months ended September 30, 
1997, since Techdyne acquired Lytton on July 31, 1997, accounted for 
approximately 44% of Lytton's sales during this period.  Customers gen-
erating at least 10% of the Company's sales for the nine months ended 
September 30, 1997 included IBM (19%) and EMC (10%).  The loss of or 
substantially reduced sales to any of the Company's major customers 
would have an adverse effect on its operations if such sales were not 
replaced.  See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condi-
tion and Results of Operations - Results of Operations."


Sale of Stock By Subsidiaries

The Company follows an accounting policy of income statement recognition 
for sales of stock by its subsidiaries, which includes exercise of warrants
issued in subsidiary stock offerings. See Note 8.


Inventories

     Inventories are comprised of the following:

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes at the end of each period are determined by applying 
enacted tax rates applicable to future periods in which the taxes are ex-
pected to be paid or recovered to differences between financial accounting 
and tax basis of assets and liabilities.

                          September 30, 1997
                              (Unaudited)


NOTE 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies --Continued

The Company filed consolidated federal and state tax returns with Techdyne 
until October 2, 1995, the date Techdyne's securities offering was com-
pleted, after which Techdyne files separate income tax returns with its 
income tax liability reflected on a separate return basis.  DCA was like-
wise included in the consolidated tax returns of the Company until the 
completion of its public offering in April 1996, after which it files 
separate income tax returns with its income tax liability reflected on a 
separate return basis.  See Note 8.


Earnings per Share 

Earnings per share have been computed on the basis of weighted average 
shares outstanding plus common equivalent shares from dilutive stock 
options using the treasury stock method and average market price for the 
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and using the modi-
fied treasury stock method and average market price for the three months 
and nine months ended September 30, 1996.


New Pronouncements

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS 128,
"Earnings Per Share," which is required to be adopted on December 31, 1997.
At that time, the Company will be required to change the method currently 
used for computing earnings per share and to restate all prior periods.  
The new requirements for calculating primary earnings per share will ex-
clude the dilutive effect of stock options.  This change would not have
affected earnings per share under the basic computation required by FAS 128
for the three months ended September 30, 1997 or September 30, 1996 but
would have increased earnings per share for the nine months ended Sep-
tember 30, 1997 to $.08  per share and would have increased earnings per
share for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $.43.  Earnings per
share under the diluted computation required under FAS 128, which will 
include stock options using the treasury stock method and average market 
price, would have yielded the same results as the present primary compu-
tation for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 
for the same periods of the preceding year.


Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 financial statements 
to conform to the 1997 presentation.


NOTE  2--Interim Adjustments

The financial summaries for the three months and nine months ended Sep-
tember 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996 are unaudited and include, in the 
opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the earnings for such 
periods.  Operating results for the three months and nine months ended 
September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may 
be expected for the entire year ending December 31, 1997.

While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to 
make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these Consoli-
dated Condensed Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the 
financial statements and notes included in the Company's latest annual 
report for the year ended December 31, 1996.

NOTE 3--Transactions With Viragen, Inc.

The Company owns approximately 259,000 shares of common stock of Viragen, 
formerly a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company.  The carrying value 
of these securities was written off as of December 31, 1991. The Company 
has recorded these securities at fair value with the unrealized gain 
credited to a separate component of Stockholders' Equity, net of income 
tax effect.  Fair value was determined using quoted market prices by the 
Nasdaq Stock Market commencing September 1996 and by the National Quotation
Bureau, Inc. prior to that time.  The market price of Viragen common stock 
has fluctuated significantly amounting to $2.34 per share at September 30, 
1997 and $5.22 per share at December 31, 1996.

The Company sold 10,000 shares of Viragen stock and recognized a gain of 
approximately $49,000 during the first quarter of 1997, and sold 310,000 
shares and recognized a gain of $562,000 during the same period of the 
preceding year.  There were no such sales during the second or third 
quarter of 1997 as compared with sales of 160,000 shares for $924,000 and 
69,000 shares for $308,000 during the second and third quarters of 1996, 
respectively.

The Company had a second mortgage and related note due from Viragen.  The 
note balance included amounts due from Viragen that were previously written
off by the Company.  In March, 1996, Viragen prepaid $165,000 on this note.  
The Company recognized a gain of approximately $29,000 in the first quarter
of 1996 as a result of collecting a portion of the previously reserved 
amount and recognized a gain of approximately $198,000 in the third quarter
of 1996, as a result of Viragen repaying the balance which had been offset 
by an allowance for amounts previously written off as uncollectable.

The Company has a royalty agreement with Viragen, pursuant to which it 
receives a royalty on Viragen's net sales of interferon and related 
products. The terms of the agreement include an aggregate of $2.4 million 
to be paid based on the following percentages of Viragen sales: 5% of the 
first $7 million, 4% of the next $10 million, and 3% of the remaining 
$55 million.  Royalty payments are due quarterly.  Under the agreement, 
approximately $108,000 of royalties earned pursuant to a previous 
agreement, will comprise the final payment. 


NOTE 4--Long-Term Debt

On February 8, 1996, Techdyne refinanced its term loan by entering into 
three loan agreements with a Florida bank.  One credit facility was a 
$2,000,000 line of credit, due on demand, secured by Techdyne's accounts 
receivable, inventory, furniture, fixtures and intangible assets and bore 
interest at the bank's prime rate plus 1.25%.  In conjunction with 
Techdyne's acquisition of Lytton on July 31, 1997, the line of credit 
was modified and was increased to $2,500,000 with the interest rate 
reduced to prime plus .75% and various other modifications.  The interest 
rate has remained at 9.25% since the line was drawn on July 31, 1997.  The 
line was fully drawn down in connection with the Lytton acquisition with 
$2,500,000 remaining outstanding at September 30, 1997.  See Note 9.

The bank also extended two commercial term loans to Techdyne, one for 
$712,500 which had an outstanding balance of $672,000 and $691,000 at 
September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and is secured by a mortgage 
on properties in Hialeah, Florida owned by the Company, two of which 
properties are leased to Techdyne and one parcel being vacant land used 
as a parking lot.

The second commercial term loan for $200,000 had an outstanding balance 
of $137,000 and $167,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, 
respectively, and is secured by all of Techdyne's tangible personal 
property, goods and equipment, and all cash or noncash proceeds of such 
collateral.

NOTE 4--Long-Term Debt--Continued

The Company has unconditionally guaranteed the payment and performance 
by Techdyne of the revolving loan and the two commercial term loans.

Techdyne has a promissory note payable to a local bank of $145,000 at 
September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, with interest payable monthly 
at prime with the note maturing April, 2000.

Lytton has a $1,500,000 revolving bank line of credit requiring monthly 
interest payments at prime plus .5% which matures August 1, 1998.  The 
average amount outstanding on this loan since the Company acquired Lytton 
on July 31, 1997 was $55,758 with the maximum outstanding of $373,889 
remaining outstanding as of September 30, 1997.  The weighted average 
interest rate on this loan during this period was 9.13%.  Lytton has a 
$1,000,000 installment loan with the same bank maturing June, 2002 at an 
annual rate of 9% for two years, with monthly payments of $16,667 plus 
interest.  After two years, Lytton will have an option of a variable or 
fixed interest rate.  The balance outstanding on this loan was $983,333 
as of September 30, 1997. Lytton also negotiated a $500,000 equipment 
loan agreement with the same bank payable over four years through July 1,
2001 with the same interest rate as the installment loan.  There was no 
outstanding balance on this loan as of September 30, 1997.  All of these 
bank loans are secured by the business assets of Lytton.

In October, 1994, Techdyne (Scotland) finalized the purchase of the 
facility which houses its operations at a cost of approximately $730,000.
This mortgage had a remaining balance of $566,000 and $622,000 at Sep-
tember 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively.  Techdyne (Scotland) 
has a line of credit with a Scottish bank with a U.S. dollar equivalency 
of approximately $324,000 and $342,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 
31, 1996, respectively.  No amounts were outstanding under this line of 
credit as of September 30, 1997 or December 31, 1996.

The Company obtained a $130,000 mortgage on vacant land for possible 
future expansion in April 1993.  This mortgage has been extended from its 
originally scheduled due date of April 1, 1998 to May 1, 2003 with payments
remaining at $1,083 per month plus interest at prime plus 1.50%.  This 
mortgage had a balance of approximately $73,000 at September 30, 1997 
and $76,000 at December 31, 1996.

DCA has mortgages on its buildings in Lemoyne, Pennsylvania and Easton, 
Maryland for which the remaining combined principal balance amounted to 
approximately $450,000 and $504,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 
1996, respectively.  Commencing November 30, 1993, the bank has the right 
to demand repayment on the outstanding balance of the borrowings under 
these mortgages which have accordingly been classified as current liabil-
ities.

DCA has an equipment purchase agreement for kidney dialysis machines for 
its facilities in Pennsylvania and Florida.  The initial principal balance 
of $195,130, additional borrowings of $124,096 in 1996, $17,000 in March, 
1997, $48,000 in June, 1997 and $108,000 in July, 1997, net of downpayments,
represents a noncash financing activity which is a supplemental disclosure 
required by FAS 95.  Monthly payments were originally $4,435 commencing 
September, 1995, including principal and interest, through September, 2000,
with additional monthly payments on new financing as follows: $2,750 on 
1996 financing commencing December, 1996, including principal and interest 
through September, 2001 with interest at 12%; additional monthly payments 
of $344 commencing March, 1997, including principal and interest, through 
February, 2002, with interest at 8%; additional monthly payments of $975 
commencing June, 1997, including principal and interest through May, 2002, 
with interest at 8.7%; and additional monthly payments of $2,194 commencing
July, 1997, including principal and interest through June, 2002, with 
interest at 8.7%.  The remaining principal balance under this agreement 
amounted to approximately $398,000 and $272,000 at September 30, 1997 and 
December 31, 1996, respectively.  In conjunction with DCA's sale of its 
Florida dialysis operations on October 31, 1997,

the purchaser assumed a portion of the financing liabilities which amounted
to approximately $113,000 as of September 30, 1997, which is included in 
the balance outstanding of $398,000 at that date.  See Note 10.

The prime rate was 8.5% as of September 30, 1997 and 8.25% as of December 
31, 1996.

Interest payments on long-term debt amounted to $115,000 and $223,000 for 
the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and $54,000 and 
$170,000 for the same periods of the preceding year.


NOTE 5 -- Income Taxes

Techdyne files separate federal and state income tax returns with its 
income tax liability reflected on a separate return basis.  DCA likewise 
files separate federal and state income tax returns subsequent to its 1996 
public offering.

Techdyne has net operating loss carryforwards which amounted to approxi-
mately $5 million at December 31, 1996 and which expire in years 2003 
through 2010.  These net operating loss carryforwards are only available 
to offset Techdyne (US) taxable income.  Techdyne's new subsidiary Lytton, 
will be included in Techdyne's consolidated federal tax return effective 
August 1, 1997 with Techdyne's net operating loss carryforwards able to 
be utilized to offset any income taxable for federal return purposes 
generated by Lytton.  See Note 9.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences 
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial 
reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A de-
ferred tax liability of $2,087,000 at September 30, 1997 and $2,053,000 
December 31, 1996 resulted from income tax expense recorded on gains 
recognized for financial reporting purposes, but not for income tax 
purposes resulting in a difference between book and tax basis of the 
Company's investments in Techdyne and DCA.  This temporary difference 
would reverse upon the occurrence of certain events relating to the 
divestiture of these subsidiaries.  Management of the Company currently 
has no plans to effect a transaction that will result in such a divesti-
ture.  A deferred tax liability of approximately $231,000 has been 
recorded for the unrealized gain on marketable securities.  See Note 3.

The Company had a domestic income tax expense (benefit) of approximately 
$48,000 and $72,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 
30, 1997, including deferred taxes of approximately $34,000 on gains on 
Techdyne warrant exercises during the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
all of which were prior to the third quarter; and $120,000 and $821,000 
for the same periods of the preceding year, including deferred taxes of 
$578,000 in the second quarter of 1996 on the DCA stock offering.  See 
Note 8.

Techdyne (Scotland) had an income tax (benefit) expense of approximately
$(36,000) and $(100,000) for the three months and nine months ended 
September 30, 1997 and income tax (benefit) expense of approximately 
$(12,000) and $304,000 for the same periods of the preceding year.

Income tax payments were $364,000 and $770,000 for the three months and 
nine months ended September 30, 1997 and $487,000 and $497,000 for the 
same periods of the preceding year.


NOTE 6 -- Stock Options And Stock Compensation

In September 1994, the Company granted options to a consulting firm to

through September 30, 1997.  Options for 200,000 shares were transferred 
by the consulting firm to another party in September, 1996.  The options 
vested on the basis of 25% of the aggregate as of the end of each quarter 
beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 1994.  Options for

NOTE 6 -- Stock Options And Stock Compensation-Continued

200,000 shares were exercised in August, 1997 and the remaining options 
for 200,000 shares were exercised in September 1997.

In September, 1994, options to purchase 480,000 shares of common stock at 
$.69 per share were exercised.  The Company received cash payment of the 
par value and the balance in three year promissory notes.  In September, 
1996, the Company forgave the balances due under the notes including 
accrued interest, In accordance with which it recorded approximately 
$344,000 in compensation expense in the second quarter of 1996.  The 
Company has 1,000,000 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance 
pursuant to its 1989 Stock Option Plan.  On April 18, 1995, the Company 
granted 809,000 options, of which there are currently 806,000 outstanding,
as a service award to officers, directors, consultants and certain em-
ployees of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries under its 1989 
Stock Option Plan.  The options were exercisable at $3.00 per share 
reduced to $2.38 per share on December 30, 1996, through April 17, 2000. 
On June 11, 1997, the Company's Board of directors granted a five-year 
non-qualified stock option under the 1989 Stock Option Plan for 35,000 
shares immediately exercisable with an exercise price of $3.75 to a new 
Board member, which exercise price was reduced to $2.38 per share on 
September 10, 1997, the fair market value on that date.  Including the 
June 1997, grant, there are 841,000 options outstanding under the 1989 plan.

On May 6, 1996, the Company adopted a Key Employee Stock Plan reserving 
100,000 shares of its common stock for issuance from time to time to 
officers, directors, key employees, advisors and consultants as bonus 
or compensation for performances and or services rendered to the Company 
or otherwise providing substantial benefit for the Company.  2,000 shares 
under this plan were issued to the managing director of the Company's 
European operations for which the Company recorded approximately $6,000 
in compensation expense during the second quarter of 1996.

In May 1994, Techdyne adopted a stock option plan for up to 250,000 
options.  Pursuant to this plan, in May 1994, Techdyne's Board of Direc-
tors granted 227,500 options, of which there are 171,600 outstanding as 
of September 30, 1997, to certain of its officers, directors, employees 
and consultants.  These options are excercisable for a period of five 
years at $1 per share.

On February 27, 1995 Techdyne granted stock options, not part of the 1994 
Plan, to directors of Techdyne and its subsidiary for 142,500 shares 
exercisable at $1.75 per share for five years.  In April 1995, Techdyne 
granted a stock option for 10,000 shares, not part of the 1994 Plan, to 
its general counsel at the same price and terms as the directors' options.

On September 6, 1997, Techdyne's Board of Directors adopted a Stock 
Option Plan with 500,000 shares of its common stock reserved under the 
1997 Plan with the 1997 Plan approved by shareholders at Techdyne's 
annual meeting of shareholders on June 11, 1997.  On September 23, 1997, 
Techdyne's Board granted options under the plan for an aggregate of 
375,000 shares of Techdyne common stock exercisable for five years 
through September 22, 2002 at $3.25 per share, the closing price of 
the common stock on that date as reported by Nasdaq.

NOTE 6 -- Stock Options And Stock Compensation-Continued

The Boards of Directors of each company granting stock options determined 
that the fair value of the underlying common stock was not in excess of 
the exercise price on the date of grant for stock options granted and, 
therefore, no amounts have been charged to operations in connection with 
any grants of options.


NOTE 7 -- Commitments And Contingencies

In the first quarter of 1996, a temporary worker provided by a temporary 
personnel agency was injured while working at Techdyne.  The worker was 
insured through the temporary personnel agency.  While the full extent of 
the temporary worker's injuries and the ultimate costs associated with 
those injuries are not presently known, the Company anticipates that its 
insurance is adequate to cover any potential claims which might arise.

Effective January 1, 1997, DCA established a 401(k) savings plan (salary 
deferral plan) with an eligibility requirement of one year of service and 
21 year old age requirement.

Lytton sponsors a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan covering substantially all 
of its employees.  The discretional profit sharing and matching expense 
since Techdyne acquired Lytton on July 31, 1997 has been approximately 
$7,000.


NOTE 8 -- Subsidiary Stock Offerings

In October 1995, Techdyne completed a public offering of common stock and 
redeemable common stock purchase warrants.  During the nine months ended 
September 30, 1997, approximately 41,000 Techdyne warrants were exercised, 
with all such exercises occurring prior to the third quarter, providing net 
proceeds of approximately $194,000 after underwriter commissions on the 
warrant exercises.  In accordance with its accounting policy of income 
statement recognition for sales of stock by subsidiaries, which includes 
exercises of warrants issued in subsidiary stock offerings, the Company 
recognized a gain of approximately $61,000 with applicable income taxes 
of approximately $23,000, which resulted in a net gain of approximately 
$38,000 during the first quarter of 1997 and a gain of $29,000 with appli-
cable income taxes of approximately $11,000, which resulted in a net gain 
of approximately $18,000 during the second quarter of 1997, with no warrant
exercises or related gains in the third quarter of 1997.  See Note 1.

DCA completed a public offering in April 1996 for which the Company re-
corded a gain of approximately $1,521,000 with applicable income taxes of 
$578,000, which resulted in a net gain of approximately $943,000.


NOTE 9 -- Acquisition

On July 31, 1997, Techdyne acquired Lytton Incorporated, which is engaged 
in the manufacture and assembly of printed circuit boards and other elec-
tronic products for commercial customers.  Techdyne's modified bank line 
of credit (see Note 4) provided $2,500,000 cash required at closing.  In 
addition, the purchase price included 300,000 shares of Techdyne common 
stock which have been registered for the seller.  Techdyne has guaranteed 
that the seller will realize a minimum of $2,000,000 from the sale of 
these shares of common stock which had a fair value of approximately 
$1,031,000 based on the closing price of its common stock on the date of 
the acquisition with the guaranteed sales proceeds amounting to $2,400,000
if certain earnings objectives are met by Lytton in a specified one year 
period, with Lytton having achieved such objectives on a pro rata basis 
for the six month period already expired with a final determination to 
be made at the conclusion of the one year period.  Techdyne has the option 
of paying the seller any difference between the guaranteed sales proceeds 
and the actual amount realized by the seller from the sale of Techdyne 
common stock in cash and/or additional common stock of Techdyne.  Based on 
the closing price of the Company's common stock on September 30, 1997, the 
shares issued in the Lytton acquisition had a fair value of approximately 
$1,163,000.  With the earnings objectives being met on a pro

rata basis by Lytton, this stock valuation contingency could result in 
additional consideration of approximately $1,237,000 being due either in 
cash or in approximately 320,000 shares of Techdyne's common stock.  In 
addition, the Stock Purchase Agreement provides for incentive considera-
tion based on specific sales levels of Lytton for each of three years as 
specified in the Agreement with any such consideration payable in cash.  
Any additional consideration payable either from the stock valuation 
guarantee or as incentive consideration would result in additional good-
will which would be amortized over the remainder of the initial 25 year 
life.

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, 
and accordingly the results of operation of Lytton have been included on 
the accompanying consolidated condensed statement of income since August 1,
1997.  The total purchase price preliminarily recorded amounted to 
$3,621,000 including estimated acquisition costs of $90,000 resulting in 
goodwill of approximately $1,261,000 which will be amortized over 25 years.

     The net purchase price was allocated as follows:

          Working capital, other than cash         $  1,398,588

NOTE 10 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 31, 1997, DCA concluded a sale ("Sale") of substantially all 
of the assets of two of its 80% owned subsidiaries, Dialysis Services of 
Florida, Inc. - Ft. Walton Beach ("DSF") (dialysis operations) and Dialysis
Medical, Inc. ("DMI") (Florida Method 2 home patient operations), and an 
in-patient hospital service agreement of its 100% owned subsidiary, DCA 
Medical Services, Inc. pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement.  Considera-
tion for the assets sold was $5,065,000 consisting of $4,585,000 in cash 
and $480,000 of the purchaser's common stock which the purchaser has agreed
to register within one year.

NOTE 10 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS--Continued

Provided that the shares are sold within 30 days of their registration, 
the purchaser has agreed to make up any difference by which the sales 
proceeds are less then $480,000 in cash or additional registered shares 
of the purchaser at its discretion.

The pro forma consolidated condensed financial information presented below 
reflects the Sale if it had occurred on January 1, 1996 for purposes of 
Statement of Operations information and as if it had occurred at the end 
of the period for purposes of balance sheet information.  For purposes of 
pro forma statement of operations information, no assumption has been made 
that expenses have been eliminated which were included in corporate expense 
allocations by the Company and DCA, to the business operations sold and 
which were included in the actual results of operations of these businesses.  
Such expenses which amounted to approximately $105,000 and $187,000 for 
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respec-
tively, have accordingly not been removed when computing the below pro 
forma amounts.

No assumption has been included in the pro forma information as to invest-
ment income to be realized from investment of the proceeds of the Sale.  
If the estimated after tax proceeds of approximately $2,985,000 based on 
$4,585,000 cash proceeds at closing and estimated taxes of $1,600,000 were 
assumed to have been invested in short-term Treasury Bills at the current 
estimated yield of 5.15% for the entire periods presented pending decision 
as to other investment of the funds, estimated interest income of $111,000 
would have been earned for both the nine months ended September 30, 1997 
and for the same period of the preceding year which has not been reflected 
in the pro forma revenues or income information.

The summary pro forma information is not necessarily representative of 
what the Company's results of operations would have been if the Sale had 
actually occurred as of January 1, 1997 and may not be indicative of the 
Company's financial position or operating results for any future periods.

DCA has preliminarily estimated that it will record a gain on the Sale of 
approximately $2,700,000 as of October 31, 1997, representing an estimated 
pre-tax gain of approximately $4,300,000, net of estimated income taxes of 
approximately $1,600,000, of which approximately $528,000 of the net after 
tax gain relates to the 20% minority interest in two of the subsidiaries 
whose assets were sold.  The Company's portion of the net gain of 
$2,172,000 would amount to approximately $1,500,000 with the balance 
of approximately $672,000 applicable to the DCA minority interest.  This 
gain is not reflected in the above pro forma information.  The actual gain 
will be subject to the actual amount of net assets sold as of October 31, 
1997 and related costs of the transaction.

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

The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not
historical are forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934, including statements regarding the Company's expectations, 
intentions, beliefs, or strategies regarding the future.  Forward looking 
statements include the Company's statements regarding liquidity, antici-
pated cash needs and availability, and anticipated expense levels in 
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
of Operations" including the pursuit of new Techdyne business development 
efforts to replace lost sales from major customers, and the development of 
new products and facilities, anticipated development and acquisition of 
dialysis centers, new facility completions and related anticipated costs.  
All forward looking statements included in this document are based on 
information available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company 
assumes no obligation to update any such forward looking statement.  It is 
important to note that the Company's actual results could differ materially
from those in such forward looking statements.  Among the factors that 
could cause actual results to differ materially are the factors detailed 
in the risks discussed in the "Risk Factors" section included in the 
Registration Statement of the Company on Form S-3 as filed with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") effective May 15, 1997 and 
the Registration Statements of the Company's subsidiaries, Techdyne's 
Registration Statements on Forms S-3 (effective December 11, 1996 and 
November 4, 1997) and DCA's Registration Statement, Form SB-2 (effective 
on April 17, 1996).

Techdyne's electronic and electo-mechanical manufacturing and assembly 
operations are subject to substantial competition from divisions of large 
electronic and high-technology firms and numerous smaller, specialized 
companies.  Strong competition derives from price advantages of competitors
with less expensive off-shore operations.  This imposes pressure on 
Techdyne's bidding orders and profit margins.

The Company's future growth as an international contract manufacturer 
of precision electronic and electro-mechanical products for OEMs in the 
data processing, telecommunication, instrumentation industries and food 
preparation equipment industries will be influenced by several factors 
including technological developments, the ability of the Company to 
efficiently meet the design and production requirements of its customers, 
and the market acceptance of its customers' products.  Further factors 
impacting the success of the Company's electronic manufacturing operations
are increases in expenses associated with continued sales growth, the 
ability of Techdyne to control costs, management's ability to evaluate 
new orders to target satisfactory profit margins, the capacity of Techdyne
to develop and manage the introduction of new products, and competition as
well as pursue acquisitions in new geographical and product markets.  
Quality control is also essential to Techdyne's operations, since cus-
tomers demand strict compliance with design and product specifications.  
Any adverse change in Techdyne's excellent quality and process controls 
could adversely affect its relationship with customers and ultimately its 
revenues and profitability.

The dialysis industry is highly competitive and subject to extensive 
regulation, including the limitation on fees for dialysis treatments and 
services.  Significant competitive factors include quality of care and 
service, convenience of location and pleasant environment.  Additionally, 
there is intense competition for retaining qualified nephrologists who 
normally are the sole source of patient referrals and are responsible for 
the supervision of the dialysis centers.  There is also substantial compe-
tition for obtaining qualified nurses and technical staff.  Major companies,
some of which are public companies or divisions of public companies, have 
many more centers, physicians and financial resources than does the 
Company's subsidiary, DCA, and by virtue of such have a significant 
advantage in competing for acquisitions of dialysis facilities in areas 
targeted by the Company.

The Company's growth in dialysis operations depends primarily on the 
availability of suitable dialysis centers for acquisition or development 
in appropriate and acceptable areas, and the Company's ability to compete 
with larger companies with greater personnel and financial resources to 
develop these new potential dialysis centers at costs within the budget 
of the Company.  Its ability to retain qualified nephrologists, nursing and 
technical staff at reasonable rates is also a significant factor. Manage-
ment continues in negotiations with nephrologists for the acquisition or 
development of new dialysis facilities, as well as with hospitals and 
other health care maintenance entities.  In July, 1997 the Company opened 
a new center in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The Company is planning new centers
in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.  Several agreements for acute in-patient 
services are under review but there is no assurance that such agreements 
would be completed.  Even if the Company were to establish new centers in 
the near future, or complete in-patient treatment arrangements, there is 
no certainty as to when any new centers or service contracts would be 
implemented, or the number of stations, or patient treatments such may 
involve, or if such will ultimately be profitable.

Results of Operations

Consolidated revenues increased approximately $3,478,000 (48%) and 
$590,000 (2%) for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 
1997 compared to the same periods of the preceding year.  Sales revenues 
increased $3,994,000 (60%) and $4,085,000 (18%) for the three months and 
nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the same periods of the 
preceding year.  1997 revenues included a gain of approximately $90,000 
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from the exercise of common 
stock purchase warrants from Techdyne's securities offering, with such 
gains all prior to the third quarter.  1996 included a gain of approxi-
mately $1,521,000 from DCA's securities offering.  See Note 8 to "Notes 
to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements."  Gain on sale of 
marketable securities represents a gain attributable to the sale of 
Viragen  (a former subsidiary) common stock for which the carrying 
value had been written-off in previous periods (see Note 3 to "Notes to 
Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements") with no gain for the three 
months ended and a gain of $49,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 
1997 and gains of $308,000 and $1,794,000 for the same periods of the 
preceding year.  Other income decreased approximately $208,000 and 
$180,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 
compared to the same periods of the preceding year primarily due to gains 
of $198,000 and $227,000 for the three months and nine months ended 
September 30, 1996 on the Viragen note recovery.  See Note 3 to "Notes 
to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements."  Prior year revenues 
included $140,000 from a litigation settlement in the first quarter of 
1996.

Techdyne sales increased $3,715,000 (71%) and $3,785,000 (21%) for the 
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the 
same periods of the preceding year.  Domestic sales of Techdyne increased
$3,705,000 (100%) and $7,400,000 (76%) and European-based sales increased 
$11,000 (1%) and decreased $3,615,000 (43%) compared to the same periods 
of the preceding year.  The increase in domestic sales included sales of 
Lytton of $2,779,000 commencing August 1, 1997.  The decrease in European-
based sales was largely attributable to decreases of $614,000 (54%) and 
$5,086,000 (70%) in sales to Compaq Computer Corp. ("Compaq") by Techdyne 
(Scotland) for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 
compared to the same periods of the preceding year.

Approximately 50% and 61% of Techdyne's consolidated sales and 42% and
50% of the Company's consolidated sales for the three months and nine 
months ended September 30, 1997 were made to five customers.  Customers 
generating 10% or more of Techdyne's or the Company's consolidated sales 
for either the three month or nine month periods with their respective 
portions of Techdyne's and the Company's consolidated sales for the three 
months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 included Compaq which 
accounted for 6% and 10% and 5% and 8%, IBM for 16% and 23% and 13% and 
19% and EMC and its related suppliers for 7% and 13% and 6% and 10% and 
Lytton's major customer PMI for 14% and 6% and 12% and 5%.  The loss of, 
or substantially reduced sales to, any of these customers would have an 
adverse effect on the Company's operations.  Approximately $1,236,000 
(44%) of Lytton's sales were to its major customer.  The loss of or 
substantially reduced sales to any of its major customers, as occurred 
with Compaq in Europe commencing in the third quarter of 1996, would 
have an adverse effect on the Company's operations.

Revenues of Techdyne's Scottish-based subsidiary, Techdyne (Scotland), 
continue to be highly dependent on sales to Compaq, which accounted for 
approximately 34% and 45% of the sales of Techdyne (Scotland) for the 
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997, and 74% and 86% 
for the same periods of the preceding year.  The bidding for Compaq 
orders in Scotland has become more competitive, which resulted in sub-
stantially reduced Compaq sales commencing in the third quarter of 1996 
and lower profit margins on remaining Compaq sales.  Techdyne (Scotland) 
is pursuing new business development efforts and has offset some of the 
lost Compaq business with sales to other customers and is also pursuing 
cost reductions efforts to remain competitive with respect to Compaq, 
although there can be no assurance as to the success of such efforts.

Medical product sales revenues decreased $37,000 (9%) and $275,000 (17%) 
for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to 
the same periods of the preceding year, largely due to the Company's 
shutdown, resulting from unprofitable operations, of All American Medical
& Surgical Supply Corp., the Company's home healthcare durable subsidiary
("All American"), which commenced operations in January 1996.

Medical services sales revenues, which represents revenues of DCA, 
the Company's dialysis division, increased $311,000 (32%) and $521,000 
(18%) for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 
compared to the same periods of the preceding year.  This increase 
included increased revenues of approximately $170,000 (45%) and $487,000
(52%) at the Company's dialysis center in Lemoyne, Pennsylvania which 
commenced operations in September 1995.  Also included were revenues of 
$82,000 for the three months and nine months

Results of Operations -- Continued

ended September 30, 1997 for the Company's new dialysis center in 
Carlisle, Pennsylvania which commenced treatments in July, 1997.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of consolidated sales increased 
slightly for the three months ended September 30, 1997 to 83% compared 
to 81% for the same period of the preceding year but remained relatively 
stable for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and for the same 
periods of the preceding year amounting to 81% for both periods.

Cost of goods sold for Techdyne increased to 88% for the three months 
ended September 30, 1997 compared to 85% for the same period of the 
preceding year.  Cost of goods sold for Techdyne's new subsidiary, 
Lytton, included in results of operation since August 1, 1997 were 88%, 
which together with Techdyne (Scotland)'s reduced margins contributed 
to the overall increase in cost as a percentage of sales.

Cost of goods sold for the medical products division amounted to 66% 
and 64% for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 
compared to 64% and 65% for the same periods of the preceding year 
reflecting increases in the cost of the principal product of this 
division and changes resulting from the shutdown of All American.

Cost of medical services sales decreased to 60% from 66% and to 61% 
from 66% for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997, 
largely as a result of a decrease in supply cost and healthcare salaries 
as a percentage of sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $265,000 and 
$77,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 
compared to same period of the preceding year.  While there were decreases
from the shutdown of All American which is no longer reflected in the 
Company's results of operations, and also approximately $350,000 of stock 
compensation in the second quarter of 1996, the overall increase in 1997 
resulted from increased medical services operations, increases related to 
Techdyne's Austin, Texas facility which has substantially increased its 
operations and Techdyne's new Massachusetts facility, as well as Lytton's 
selling, general and administrative expenses being included commencing 
August 1, 1997.

Interest expense increased approximately $68,000 and $66,000 for the 
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the 
same periods of the previous year resulting largely from interest on the 
bank line of credit used to finance the Lytton acquisition and also from 
Lytton's interest expense being included since August 1, 1997.

The prime rate was 8.5% at September 30, 1997 and 8.25% at December 31, 
1996, respectively.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital totaled $12,377,000 at September 30, 1997, a decrease 
of $1,467,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 reflecting 
income tax payments and various changes in other components of working 
capital resulting from increased sales levels.  Included was a decrease 
of $495,000 in the net of tax valuation of marketable securities pursuant 
to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for 
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."  Working capital of 
Lytton of $1,523,000 is included, although this was more than offset by 
the decrease in working capital resulting from the $2,500,000 bank loan 
funding the Lytton acquisition.

Included in the changes in components of working capital was a decrease 
of $2,924,000 in cash and cash equivalents, which included net cash used 
in operating activities of $1,979,000, net cash used in investing 
activities of $3,918,000 (including funds used in the acquisition of 
Lytton of approximately $2,166,000 and additions to property, plant and 
equipment of $1,691,000) and net cash provided by financing activities 
of $3,101,000 (including net proceeds of approximately $694,000 from the 
exercise of common stock purchase warrants and stock options, borrowings of 
$2,500,000 under Techdyne's line of credit to fund the Lytton acquisition, 
repayments on long-term debt of $254,000 and the repurchase by DCA of 
100,000 shares of its stock for $206,000).

In February 1996, Techdyne refinanced its bank loan agreement.  The 
financing included a $2,000,000 line of credit, due on demand, secured 
by Techdyne's accounts receivable, inventory, furniture, fixtures and 
intangible assets.  A $712,500 term loan, which had a balance of $672,000 
and $691,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 

<PAGE>

Liquidity and Capital Resources-Continued

31, 1996, respectively, is secured by two buildings and land owned by 
the Company.  The second term loan for $200,000, which had a balance of 
$137,000 and $167,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, 
respectively, is secured by Techdyne's tangible personal property, goods 
and equipment.  The Company has guaranteed these loans and has subor-
dinated $2,500,000 due from Techdyne, provided that Techdyne may make 
payments to the Company on this subordinated debt from funds from 
Techdyne's security offering and from earnings.  Techdyne further agreed 
that in the event that it should sell its interest in Techdyne (Scotland),
which is not anticipated, 50% of the selling price would be used to repay 
the $712,500 term loan facility.  Techdyne was in default of certain 
financial reporting requirements regarding these loans as of December 31, 
1996 for which the bank has granted waivers as of December 31, 1996 and 
through December 31, 1997.  In connection with Techdyne's acquisition of 
Lytton in July 1997, the line of credit was increased to $2,500,000 with 
various other modifications, including removal of conditions regarding use 
of proceeds upon any sale of Techdyne (Scotland).  In conjunction with this
acquisition, the increased line of $2,500,000 was fully drawn down in 
July 1997, with this balance remaining outstanding as of September 30, 
1997.  See Notes 4 and 9 to "Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial 
Statements."

Techdyne has outstanding borrowings of $145,000 from a local bank with 
interest payable monthly with the present note maturing April, 2000.  
In April 1993, the Company purchased a vacant lot adjacent to Techdyne's 
facility in Hialeah, Florida for possible future expansion.  In connection 
with this purchase, the Company obtained a $130,000 mortgage originally 
scheduled to mature April, 1998 which has been extended to May, 2003.  The 
principal balance outstanding under this mortgage amounted to $73,000 and 
$82,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 1996, respectively.  See Note 4 
to "Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements."

Techdyne (Scotland) has a line of credit with a Scottish bank, with a 
U.S. dollar equivalency of approximately $324,000 and $342,000 at Sep-
tember 30, 1997 and December 31,1996, respectively.  The line of credit 
is secured by the assets of Techdyne (Scotland) and guaranteed by 
Techdyne.  This line of credit operates as an overdraft facility.  No 
amounts were outstanding under this line of credit as of September 30, 
1997 or December 31, 1996.  In October, 1994, Techdyne (Scotland) pur-
chased the facility housing its operations for approximately $730,000, 
Obtaining a 15-year mortgage which had a U.S. dollar equivalency of 
approximately $566,000 and $622,000 at September 30, 1997 and December 
31, 1996, respectively.  See Note 4 to "Notes to Consolidated Condensed 
Financial Statements."

During 1988, the Company, through DCA, its dialysis subsidiary, obtained 
mortgages totaling $1,080,000 on its two buildings, one in Lemoyne, 
Pennsylvania and the other in Easton, Maryland.  The mortgages had a 
combined remaining balance of $450,000 and $504,000 at September 30, 1997 
and December 31, 1996, respectively.  DCA was in default of certain 
covenants principally relating to net worth and debt service ratio 
requirements under these loan agreements as of December 31, 1996.  The 
lender has waived compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 1996 
and through December 31, 1997.  See Note 4 to "Notes to Consolidated 
Condensed Financial Statements."

DCA has an equipment purchase agreement for kidney dialysis machines for 
its Florida and Pennsylvania dialysis facilities which had a remaining 
principal balance of $398,000 and $272,000 at September 30, 1997 and 
December 31, 1996, respectively, which included additional equipment 
financing of approximately $17,000 in the first quarter of 1997 and 
$48,000 in the second quarter of 1997 and $108,000 in the third quarter 
of 1997.  See Note 4 to "Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial 
Statements."

The Company has sold 10,000 shares of Viragen stock realizing a gain and 
cash proceeds of approximately $49,000 during the first nine months of 
1997 and sold 539,000 shares and recognized gains of $1,794,000 during 
the same period of the preceding year.  The carrying value of these 
securities was previously written off.  Under the provisions of FASB 
Statement No. 115, the remaining shares at September 30, 1997 have been 
recorded at an estimated fair value of $607,000 with the unrealized gain, 
net of income tax effect, credited to a separate component of stockholder's
equity.  See Note 3 to "Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial State-
ments."

Techdyne has a convertible note payable to the Company, convertible 
at $1.75 per share, which amounted to approximately $3,128,000 and 
$2,998,000, including accrued interest, at September 30, 1997 and 
December 31, 1996, respectively, with $350,000 of the note converted 
into 200,000 shares of Techdyne common stock in September 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued

For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company recognized 
gains of approximately $90,000, with applicable income taxes of $34,000, 
which resulted in net gains of approximately $56,000 from exercise of 
Techdyne common stock purchase warrants from Techdyne's public offering 
with no such gains in the third quarter.  See Note 8 to "Notes to Con-
solidated Condensed Financial Statements."

Techdyne has established a new manufacturing facility in Milford, Massa-
chusetts with the facility having an initial five year lease term through 
March 31, 2002.  This facility is intended to assist in meeting increased 
customer demand in the Northeastern United States, as well as to increase 
service levels to customers in the Northeast and to penetrate new markets.
Techdyne is increasing its manufacturing capacity with new leases for its 
Houston and Austin, Texas facilities to meet increased customer demand in 
the Southwestern United States.  Most of the expenditures related to its 
new facilities, including leasehold improvements, equipment and furniture 
and fixtures, and the costs of expansion of existing facilities were 
provided from the proceeds from Techdyne's 1995 security offering.

On October 31, 1997, DCA concluded a sale of substantially all of the
assets of its Florida dialysis operations for consideration of $5,065,000,
of which $4,585,000 was received in cash at closing and $480,000 in common 
stock of the purchaser. The purchaser assumed approximately $113,000 of 
the financing liabilities of the equipment purchase agreement.  DCA has 
preliminarily estimated an after tax gain of approximately $2,700,000 of 
which approximately $528,000 relates to the 20% minority interest in two 
of the subsidiaries whose assets were sold with the Company's portion of 
the net gain estimated at approximately $1,500,000, net of DCA minority 
interest of approximately $672,000.  See Notes 4 and 9 to "Notes to 
Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements."

DCA, although having sold its Florida dialysis operations in October, 
1997, is seeking to expand its outpatient dialysis treatment facilities 
and inpatient dialysis care.  Such expansion, whether through acquisition 
of existing centers, or the development of its own dialysis centers, 
requires capital, which was the basis for DCA's 1996 securities offering 
and sale of its Florida operations.  No assurance can be given that DCA 
will be successful in implementing its growth strategy or that the funds 
from the securities offering and sale of the Florida operations will be 
adequate to finance expansion or that sufficient outside financing would 
be available to fund expansion. 

DCA commenced operations at its newly established dialysis center in 
Carlisle, Pennsylvania in July 1997 and is in the process of establishing
new dialysis centers in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

The bulk of the Company's cash balances are carried in interest yielding 
vehicles at various rates and mature at different intervals depending on 
the anticipated cash requirements of the Company.

On July 31, 1997, Techdyne acquired Lytton, which is engaged in the 
manufacture and assembly of printed circuit boards and other electronic 
products for commercial customers.  This acquisition required $2,500,000 
cash at closing, funded by the modified bank line of credit, as well as 
300,000 shares of Techdyne's common stock which had a fair value of 
approximately $1,031,000 based on the closing price of Techdyne's 
common stock on the date of acquisition for which Techdyne has guaranteed 
$2,000,000 minimum proceeds ($2,400,000 if certain earnings objectives are 
met over a 12 month period, which objectives have been met to date on a 
pro rata basis for the period already expired) to the seller.  The Stock 
Purchase Agreement also provides for incentive consideration based on 
specific sales levels of Lytton for each of three successive specified 
years.  Based on the closing price of the Techdyne's common stock on 
September 30, 1997, the shares issued in the Lytton acquisition had a 
fair value of $1,163,000 at September 30, 1997.  The Lytton acquisition 
has expanded the Techdyne's customer base, broadened its product line, 
enhanced its manufacturing capabilities and provided a new geographic area 
to better serve the continued existing customer base with opportunities to 
attract new customers.  See Notes 4 and 9 to "Notes to Consolidated 
Condensed Financial Statements."

The Company anticipates that current levels of working capital and 
working capital from operations, including those of Lytton, will be 
adequate to successfully meet liquidity demands for at lease the next 
12 months, including the financing obligations incurred in the acquisi-
tion of Lytton.  See Notes 4 and 9 to "Notes to Consolidated Condensed 
Financial Statements."

<PAGE>

Inflation

Inflationary factors have not had a significant effect on the Company's 
operations.  The Company attempts to pass on increased costs and expenses 
by increasing selling prices when and where possible and by developing 
different and improved products for its customers that can be sold at 
targeted profit margins.  However, in the Company's medical services 
segment, revenue per dialysis treatment is subject to reimbursement 
rates established and regulated by the federal government.  These rates 
do not automatically adjust for inflation.  Any rate adjustments relate 
to legislation and executive and Congressional budget demands, and have 
little to do with the actual cost of doing business.  Therefore, dialysis 
services revenues cannot be voluntarily increased to keep pace with 
increases in nursing and other patient care costs.
