Industries, Inc., the "Company."

    The statements as of and for the three months ended September 30, 1998
and 1997 are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, all adjustment have 
been made to present fairly the results of such unaudited interim periods.


1.  Significant accounting policies:
    
    Principles of consolidation:

    The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Scientific Industries, Inc. and Scientific
Packaging Industries, Inc. (a 100% owned subsidiary).  All intercompany 
items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

    
2.  Inventories:

    Inventories for interim financial statement purposes are
computed by costing sales made during the applicable periods.  Management has
estimated the components of inventory to be as follows:

                                   September 30,
                                        1998

3.  Earnings Per Share:

    For the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company adopted
Financial Accounting Standard No. 128, "Earning Per Share", which replaces the
presentation of primary earnings per share ("EPS") and fully diluted EPS with
a presentation of basic EPS and diluted EPS.  Basic EPS excludes common stock
equivalents and is computed by dividing net income available to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if 
common stock equivalents such as stock options were exercised.  EPS data for all
periods have been restated to conform to SFAS No. 128 requirement.

    Net income per common share was computed as follows:

4.  Comprehensive Income:

    The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standard No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income", which requires classification of items of
other comprehensive income in a financial statement and a display of the 
accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained 
earnings and additional paid in capital in "Shareholders' Equity."  The 
Company did not report and display comprehensive income, because it does not 
have material items representing components of other comprehensive income.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had working capital of $1,617,100 at September 30, 1998 which
approximated the Company's working capital of $1,600,700 at June 30, 1998. 
Management believes that the Company's working capital will be sufficient to
meet the Company's operational requirements for at least one year.


Results of Operations

The Three Months Ended September 30, 1998 Compared With Three
Months Ended September 30, 1997.

Net sales increased $193,200 (26.7%) for the three month period ended 
September 30, 1998 compared with the three month period ended September 30,
1997 as a result of continued strong demand for our existing laboratory 
products and a temporary  labor shortage for the quarter ended September 30, 
1997 which resulted in lower sales for that quarter.  The gross profit 
percentage for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 of 38.2% 
approximated the gross profit percentage for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1998 (38.6%), however it was lower than the gross profit
of 41.2% for the three month period ended September 30, 1997.  
The decrease in the gross profit percentage for the quarter ended 
September 30, 1998 compared to the same quarter last year is mostly due to 
higher labor and labor-related costs included in factory overhead.

                 SCIENTIFIC INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY



General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998 of $198,500 increased $15,000 (8.2%) from $183,500 for the
comparable quarter last year.  The increase was primarily due to expenses 
related to the pursuit of external business opportunities.
                                      
Research and development expenses for the three month period ended September 30,
1998 were $67,900 compared to $61,600 in the comparable period last year as a
result of increased research and development activities.

Income before income taxes of $70,800 for the three month period ended
September 30, 1998 increased $37,100 (110.1%) compared to $33,700 for the
comparable quarter last year, primarily as a result of higher sales. 


Readiness for Year 2000

The Year 2000 presents potential concerns for business and
consumer computing.
 The consequences of this issue may include systems failures and
business process interruption.  It may also include additional business and
competitive differentiation. 

The Company's accounting information is processed using computer software 
programs and systems which are susceptible to the Year 2000 issue.  As of
September 30, 1998, the majority of the Company's critical software programs 
are Year 2000 compliant.
 
Management currently believes that it will be successful in identifying and 
resolving any potential deficiencies in the Company's remaining programs
and systems with respect to the Year 2000 issue by June 30, 1999 and that all
material systems will be compliant by the Year 2000, and that the cost to 
address such issues is not material.  Nevertheless, the Company expects to 
assess its need to create contingency plans during 1999 for certain internal 
systems in the event management determines that such contingency plans may 
become warranted.  

All organizations dealing with the Year 2000 issue must address the effect
this issue will have on their third-party relationships.  The Company plans
to also undertake steps to identify whether its vendors have sufficiently
identified and are taking steps to address the Year 2000 issue.  Management 
is presently formulating a survey and plan for working with key third-parties
to understand their ability to continue providing services and products 
through the change to 2000.  The Company will work directly with its key 
vendors and distributors, and coordinate its action with respect to the 
Year 2000 issue with them if necessary, to avoid any business
interruptions in 2000.  For these key third-parties, contingency plans may be
required.

The Company's management believes the impact of the Year 2000 issue will 
not cause any material disruptions in the Company's operations.  However,
the impact of such potential disruptions is difficult to discern and nonetheless
remains a risk to be considered in evaluating the financial prospects of the 
Company.
