        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
DAINE INDUSTRIES, INC.
Brooklyn, New York  11226

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DAINE
INDUSTRIES, INC. as of December 31, 1997 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the
six month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, in accordance with
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants.  All information included in these financial statements is
the representation of management of DAINE INDUSTRIES, INC.

A review of interim financial information consists principally of
obtaining an understanding of the system for the preparation of interim
financial information, applying analytical review procedures to
financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for
financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope
than an examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do
not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the consolidated financial statements for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1997,
and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders'
equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein);
and in our report dated July 31, 1997, we expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as
of June 30, 1997 is fairly stated in all material respects in relation
to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

         INVENTORY

         Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost
         is determined by the first-in, first-out method.
         Inventories consist of:

                                        12/31/97    6/30/97
               Raw Materials            $268,582   $288,582
               Work-in-Process           210,221    213,182

                                        $615,866   $607,127

          CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

          Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company
          to concentration of credit risk are accounts receivable. 
          During the periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, three
          customers accounted for approximately 45%, 20%, 12%, and 54%,
          23%, 16%, respectively, of total revenues.  The Company
          performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers but
          generally does not require collateral to support customer
          receivables.  The loss of any one of these customers could
          have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of
          the company.
          
          PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

          Renewals and betterments are capitalized; maintenance and
          repairs are expensed as incurred.

          Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method
          over the asset's estimated useful life, which generally
          approximates 10 years.

          REVENUE RECOGNITION POLICY

          The company recognizes sales, for both financial statement
          purposes and for tax purposes, when the products are shipped
          to customers.

                             (Continued)



          ESTIMATES IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

          Preparation of the Company's financial statements in
          conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
          requires management to make estimates that affect the
          reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
          financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
          expenses during the reporting period.  Accordingly, actual
          results could differ from those estimates.

          INCOME TAXES

          The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with
          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
          "Accounting for Income Taxes."  SFAS 109 has as its basic
          objective the recognition of current and deferred income tax
          assets and liabilities based upon all events that have been
          recognized in the financial statements as measured by the
          provisions of the enacted tax laws. Valuation allowances are
          established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to
          the estimated amount to be realized.  Income tax expense
          represents the tax payable for the current period and the
          change during the period in the deferred tax assets and
          liabilities.
          

NOTE 3:   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

          The company is currently in a lease for office and factory
          space requiring minimum annual base rental payments for the
          fiscal periods shown as follows:

                         1998      $ 58,000
                         1999        58,333
                         2000        60,333
                         2001        62,000
                         2002        36,166
                         Total     $274,832

                        (unaudited)
                        (Continued)


          In addition to annual base rental payments, the company must
          pay an annual escalation for real estate taxes.
          
          Certain officers and directors of the company have been
          included as defendants in a class action entitled "Barker et
          al v. Power Securities Corp., et al" in the Western District
          of New York, which action alleges violations of the
          securities laws, in trading certain securities including
          those of the company and its formerly affiliated company,
          Davin Enterprises Inc., by all of the defendants.  Certain
          officers and directors of the company deny the allegations
          and believe the suit to be without merit.  The alleged
          violations refer to Section 10b and Rule 10b-5 of the
          Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

          The company has undertaken to advance any expenses necessary
          and incurred by the officers and directors in the litigation
          subject to an undertaking by such officer and director to
          repay the advances if it be ultimately determined that the
          officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified.  At
          this date, expenses are not material.
          
          In the event that the plaintiffs were to prevail against the
          officers and directors and a judgment was issued against
          them, this may have a material adverse effect on the
          company's future financial condition.  Management feels that
          an estimate of the possible range of loss cannot be made at
          this time.

NOTE 4:   INCOME TAXES

          Income taxes are accrued at the statutory U.S. and state   
          income tax rates.

          Income tax expense is principally due to state and local   
          income taxes based upon capital.  Deferred tax liabilities 
          relate to depreciation timing differences.

          Total Tax Expense                $1,057   $221

          The tax effect of significant temporary differences, which
          comprise the deferred tax liabilities are as follows:

                                           12/31/97 6/30/97
          Depreciation                     $15,038  $15,038


NOTE 5:   POSTRETIREMENT EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

          The company does not have a policy to cover employees for any
          health care or other welfare benefits that are incurred after
          employment (postretirement).  Therefore, no provision is
          required under SFAS's 106 or 112.


NOTE 6:   INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORTING

          The unaudited financial statements of the company for the
          period July 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997 have been prepared
          by management from the books and records of the company, and
          reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments
          necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position
          and operations of the company as of the period indicated
          herein, and are of a normal recurring nature.

Part 1.  Financial Information


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

     Daine Industries, Inc. ("The Registrant") was incorporated on
September 24, 1987 and is currently engaged in the manufacture and
assembly of wiring devices.  During the quarter ended March 31, 1988,
the Registrant completed its proposed public offering.  On February 26,
1990, Daine Industries, Inc. purchased the assets of Lite King Corp. 
The purchase price was $738,079, which was paid $663,079 in cash and
$75,000 in a note.

     Lite King's facilities consist of approximately 16,000 square feet
of office and factory space with annual lease payments of $58,000. 
Lite King's work force fluctuates during the year, from about 14-35
employees, all except three which were engaged in manufacturing and
assembly activities.

     As a result of the acquisition of the assets of Lite King
Corporation by the Registrant's wholly owned subsidiary, during the six
months ended December 31, 1997, the Registrant generated revenues of
$728,418.  During the six months ended December 31, 1996 the Registrant
generated revenues of $898,176  During the six months ended December
31, 1997, the Registrant had a net loss of $25,027 as compared with net
loss of $23,745 for the six months ended December 31, 1996.

     Management expects a general downturn in revenues to continue into
the next quarter (quarter ended March 31, 1998).  Management also
anticipates activities for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 may result
in a loss.  The Registrant is experiencing added competition from firms
with production facilities in China, Mexico and third world nations
which resulted in lower gross margins.  The Registrant is at a
disadvantage in that firms based in the above listed nations have labor
rates considerably lower than the Registrant's.

     As of December 31, 1997, the Registrant had total assets of
$1,684,186, current assets of $1,512,530, fixed assets of $165,556,
other assets of $6,100, current liabilities of $74,197, and total
shareholders' equity of $1,594,951.  At June 30, 1997, total assets
amounted to $1,782,416, current assets of $1,589,228, fixed assets of
$187,088, other assets of $6,100, current liabilities of $147,400,
other liabilities of $15,038 and shareholders' equity of $1,619,978.

     Lite King is seeking to represent non-U.S. electrical and
electronic parts manufacturers in the USA and Canada.  No assurances
can be given that Lite King will be successful in adding new agency
business.

     Lite King's main customer base are manufacturers of Christmas,
Easter and Halloween products.  Management considers its principal
business to be seasonal in nature with sales usually at its lowest
point during the quarter ended March 31st, with sales rising steadily
during the June, September quarters and declining in the December
quarter.  The Registrant is experiencing lower gross profit margins
because of the introduction of some new components used on some
products, mandated by Underwriters Laboratories Inc., and added
competition from firms with manufacturing facilities in China.  For the
three months ended December 31, 1997, Lite King's three largest
customers accounted for about 77% of its total sales.  The loss of any
of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the
Registrant's operations.

     The cash and cash equivalents balances of the Company as of
December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997 were $795,778 and $468,991,
respectively.  The increase in cash and cash equivalents was
principally the result of lower accounts receivable for the quarter
ended December 31, 1997.  The Company expects that its current balances
of cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet its minimum
planned capital and liquidity needs for the next year.

     The Company does not believe that the impact of inflation on its
activities is significant.  The Company is directing its marketing
effort to reach out to new potential customers in non-related fields. 
No assurance can be given that such marketing activities will result
in the Company adding new customers.  

     Management sees added operating problems in fiscal year 1998 (year
ended June 30, 1998) as a result of new regulations being proposed by
Underwriter Laboratories Inc. (UL) for Christmas and other seasonal
products.  These new UL regulations will add additional costs to the
Company's products and unless the Company is able to pass along these
additional costs, profit margins for the Company's products in fiscal
year 1998 will be lower.  The Company also needs to meet these new
requirements.  Failure to meet these requirements could have an adverse
material effect on the Company's future operations.
