1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The   accompanying  unaudited  condensed  consolidated  financial
statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial  statement
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10
of  Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of  the
information  and  disclosures  required  by  generally   accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In  the
opinion  of  management, all adjustments  (consisting  of  normal
recurring  accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.  Operating results for the three-month period
ended  March  31,  1996, are not necessarily  indicative  of  the
results  that  may be expected for the year ending  December  31,
1996.    For  further  information,  refer  to  the  consolidated
financial  statements  and  footnotes thereto  included  in  M.G.
Products,  Inc.  annual report on Form 10-K for  the  year  ended
December 31, 1995.

Description of Business

M.G.  Products, Inc. (the Company or M.G.) is engaged in a single
business  segment, the manufacture and wholesale distribution  of
lighting  fixtures  for retail outlets primarily  in  the  United
States.   The  consolidated  financial  statements  include   the
accounts  of the Company and all wholly owned subsidiaries.   All
significant  intercompany  accounts and  transactions  have  been
eliminated.

The  Company  has manufacturing plants located in  Monterrey  and
Tijuana,  Mexico.  Substantially all of the products produced  in
these  two factories are transferred to the U.S. entity for  sale
in  the  United  States.   Currently, the Company  purchases  raw
materials   from   both  United  States  and   Mexican   vendors.
Identifiable  assets, primarily raw materials and  machinery  and
equipment of $7,800,000 are located in Mexico.

Use of Estimates

The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with
generally  accepted accounting principles requires management  to
make  estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts  reported
in  the  financial  statements and  accompanying  notes.   Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The  Company  sells  its  products primarily  to  major  national
building material/home improvement retailers.  Credit is extended
based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition, and
collateral is generally not required.

A  major  shareholder and former Chief Executive Officer  of  the
Company  holds a senior merchandising position with the Company's
single  largest customer.  The Company's single largest  customer
provides advance payments in exchange for prepayment discounts on
its  purchases.   The  Company records such advance  payments  as
deferred revenue.

Inventories

Inventories  are  stated at the lower of cost  (determined  on  a
first-in, first-out basis) or market.

Property and Equipment

Property  and  equipment is stated at cost and  depreciated  over
estimated useful lives of five to seven years using the straight-
line method.

1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Pre-Petition Liabilities

During 1990, the Company was approved for reorganization pursuant
to  Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.  As part  of
its  reorganization plan, the Company is obligated to pay certain
adjusted  liabilities  which  are included  in  the  accompanying
balance sheet as pre-petition liabilities.

Revenue Recognition

Product sales revenue is recorded as products are shipped.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company granted stock options for a fixed number of shares to
employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value  of  the
shares  at  the  date of grant.  The Company accounts  for  stock
option  grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for  Stock Issued to Employees," and, accordingly, recognizes  no
compensation expense for the stock option grants.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.
                                
Net Loss Per Share

Net  loss per share is computed using the weighted average number
of  common  shares  outstanding during the  year.   Common  stock
equivalents are not considered in the computation of periods with
a loss as their effect is anti-dilutive.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to
the current year presentation.

2.   Going Concern

During  the  three  years ended December 31,  1995,  the  Company
incurred  substantial losses which negatively impacted cash  flow
and   caused   liquidity  shortages.   Due  to  its   cash   flow
difficulties,  the  Company entered into a factoring  arrangement
with  a  financing company, and all eligible accounts  receivable
have been factored.  At December 31, 1995, and at March 31, 1996,
the  Company  was not in compliance with certain covenants  under
this agreement.  Additionally, a significant portion of its trade
payables  was  outside  their  stated  terms  which  caused   the
intermittent   interruption  in  the  receipt  of   certain   raw
materials, having  a negative effect on the Company's ability  to
meet customer's demands for certain products.

As  a  result  of  the inability to meet the demands  of  certain
customers,  the  Company  has lost some  of  its  customer  base,
causing a decline in sales.  Some of the Company's product  lines
are  customer  specific, and as a result of  the  loss  of  these
customers, certain raw materials are not currently being consumed
in  the  manufacturing  process and new  markets  have  not  been
established for much of the Company's finished inventory.

The Company has negotiated with a significant customer to receive
advance  payments in exchange for prepayment discounts on  orders
to  improve cash flow, is in the process of developing a  program
to  reduce  its inventory, has restructured its prior year  debt,
and  is  attempting to increase its borrowing  base  by  pursuing
additional   financing  through  negotiations  with   asset-based
lenders.   The Company believes that the attainment of an  asset-
based  lending  agreement, together with  the  customer  advances
obtained, will improve operating results and financial viability.
There   can   be  no  assurance,  however,  that  new   financing
arrangements will be satisfactorily completed.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)


2.   Going Concern (continued)

There  is  substantial  doubt  about  the  Company's  ability  to
continue  if cash shortages continue to exist.  The Company  must
renew  its  debt or find new sources of financing, and must  find
new  markets for much of its inventory. The financial  statements
do  not  include  any adjustments to reflect the possible  future
effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the
amounts  and  classification of liabilities that may result  from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

3.   Restructuring and Relocation

In  May  1995, the Company relocated its corporate offices  from
Chula  Vista, California to San Antonio, Texas pursuant  to  its
restructuring  plan  begun in December  1994.  During  1995  the
Company  defaulted  on its lease obligation covering  the  Chula
Vista,  California facility.  The Company is a  defendant  in  a
lawsuit  filed in December 1995 with respect to this  breach  of
contract.  The Company maintains a reserve for future losses  on
the  property of approximately $1.3 million at March  31,  1996.
No  assurances  can  be  given, however, that  the  Company  can
satisfactorily  defend  this lawsuit and  not  incur  additional
liability in the near term beyond the Company's accrued  amount.
(See note 6)

Concurrent  with  the move to San Antonio, the  Company  entered
into  an  agreement  to  share  certain  employees  and  certain
administrative,  selling  and marketing  expenses  with  Rooster
Products  International, Inc. ("Rooster Products"),  the  United
States  marketing  and  distribution subsidiary  of  Exportadora
Cabrera  S.A.  de  C. V. ("Exportadora"), a Mexican  corporation
owned  by  the  family  of  Juan Pablo  Cabrera,  the  Company's
Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.  C&F Alliance
LLC  (the  Alliance)  was  created by the  Company  and  Rooster
Products  share management and certain sales and  marketing  and
general  and  administrative expenses.  The Company and  Rooster
Products each own 50% of the Alliance, and all expenses incurred
by  the  Alliance  are billed to the owners  based  on  services
provided.

The  following table presents summary financial information  for
the Alliance for the period ended March 31, 1996:

                                                   
Sales and marketing expenses                        $621,000
General and administrative expenses                1,137,000

4.   Notes Payable

In April 1995, the Company  received a $2.0 million loan from  a
Mexican  bank  for  its  subsidiary in Monterrey,  Mexico.   The
current renewal of this loan, which is funded through an  agency
of  the  Mexican  government to support Mexican  exports,  bears
interest  at an annual rate of 14.0%, and is due July  1,  1996.
In  May  1995, the Company finalized a new credit facility  with
Heller  Financial, Inc. ("Heller Financial").   Pursuant  to  an
amendment  to  this  agreement  dated  in  March  1996,   Heller
Financial  will advance funds, up to a maximum of $3.0  million,
to   the   Company   under  an  accounts  receivable   factoring
arrangement   based  on  an  80%  advance  rate   for   domestic
receivables  and  75%  for  certain  foreign  receivables.   The
agreement  also  contains restrictions related to  indebtedness,
net  worth,  income  and  the payment of  cash  dividends.   The
balance owed under this agreement was approximately $447,000  at
March 31, 1996.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)


4.   Notes Payable (continued)

At March 31, 1996, the Company was not in compliance with certain
financial covenants of the credit facility with Heller Financial.
Heller  Financial has the right to terminate this  agreement  and
the  obligation  shall mature and become due  and  payable.   The
Company   and  Heller  Financial  have  satisfactorily  concluded
discussions  for  a  further  amendment  to  the  agreement.   No
assurances  can  be  given, however, that  the  Company  will  be
successful in executing the amendment.  In the event that  a  new
agreement  cannot  be obtained, the Company  will  be  unable  to
continue operations as currently structured.

5.   Certain Related Party Transactions

In  the  second quarter of 1995, the Company moved its  corporate
offices  to  San  Antonio,  Texas and formed  the  Alliance  with
Rooster   Products.   The  Company  contributed  certain   office
furniture,  fixtures, and equipment with  a  net  book  value  of
approximately  $477,000 to the Alliance.  Through  the  Alliance,
the  Company and Rooster share management and certain  sales  and
marketing  and general and administrative expenses.  The  Company
and  Rooster  Products  each own 50% of  the  Alliance,  and  all
expenses incurred by the Alliance are billed to the owners  based
on  services provided.  During 1995, the Company's share  of  the
expenses  incurred by the Alliance was $883,000 of which $347,000
has  been  included in sales and marketing and $535,000 has  been
included   in   general  and  administrative  expenses   in   the
consolidated  statement of operations.  At March  31,  1996,  the
Company owed the Alliance $723,000 for unreimbursed expenses.

6.     Commitments and Contingencies

During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company breached its lease
agreement on the Chula Vista facility (see Note 3) by failing  to
make the lease payments.  As a result of this breach, the Company
is a defendant in a lawsuit.  The plaintiff is seeking to recover
compensatory  damages, interest, attorney's fees,  reconditioning
expenses, utility charges, improvements which may be made  for  a
new  tenant,  and  miscellaneous other costs  of  re-leasing  the
property.   The Company denies the allegations and  believes  the
plaintiff  may  not  recover due to the  plaintiff's  failure  to
mitigate  its  damages  as  required  by  California  law.    The
remaining unpaid lease obligation under the terms of the lease is
approximately  $4,000,000.  At March 31, 1996,  the  Company  has
reserved  approximately  $1,300,000  against  this  matter.   The
ultimate  resolution of the matter, which is  expected  to  occur
within  one  year,  could  result in an  additional  loss  up  to
approximately $3,000,000 in excess of the amount accrued.

During  1995,  a former employee filed suit against  the  Company
seeking  compensatory and punitive damages for breach of contract
and  discrimination,  among other allegations.   The  Company  is
aggressively defending this matter.  The Company expects that the
ultimate  resolution  of this matter will  not  have  a  material
adverse impact on the financial position or results of operations
in the near future.

In  connection  with  the Company's Tijuana facility  lease,  the
Company  ceased payments in 1995 and the lessor of  the  facility
has  filed  suit in Mexican courts for non-payment of  the  rent.
The  Company has filed a countersuit alleging impropriety of  the
dollar-based  contract  based  on  Tijuana  law.   The   ultimate
resolution  of the matter, which is expected to occur within  one
year, is not expected to result in a loss in excess of the amount
the Company has accrued of approximately $340,000.  There can  be
no  assurance  that the Company will be successful  in  defending
this lawsuit, or that a loss greater than the amount accrued will
not be incurred.

In the normal course of business, the Company is named in various
legal  actions.   The Company is a defendant in various  lawsuits
generally incidental to its business.  The amounts sought by  the
plaintiffs in such cases are not material and are less  than  the
stated limits of the Company's insurance policies.

Three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to March 31, 1995

Results of Operations

Net  sales in the first quarter of 1996 were approximately  $5.7
million.   This represents a decrease of $4.3 million,  or  43%,
from  the  first  quarter of 1995.  During late 1994 and early 
1995 the Company experienced cash flow shortages that resulted
in the Company's inability to meet production schedules due to 
the interruption in the availability of certain raw   materials.
This  lack  of  production  resulted  in  the Company's  failure
to ship certain orders  at  acceptable  fill rates  on a timely 
basis and the reduction of purchases by  some or  all of the 
Company's products by certain customers resulting in declining
sales in 1995.  Although, in the first quarter of 1996, the Company 
has increased its fill rates to an average in  excess of 90% and has 
regained placement of certain  of  its products and the Company  has  
also been  successful in implementing a new program to ship product   
from the  Company's manufacturing   facilities directly to customers,
historical sales levels have not as yet recovered to the level of the 
prior year period. 

Cost  of  sales for the three months ended March 31, 1996,  were
$4.9  million,  resulting  in  gross  profit  margins  of  13.2%
compared  to the gross profit margin percentages of  13.3%   for
the comparable period in 1995.  The Company continues to address
overhead cost reduction and productivity improvement issues,  as
well as raw material cost reduction to improve gross margins  at
its  Mexican  based  production facilities.  The  Company  often
sells  excess  inventory  items at or below  cost  in  order  to
generate  needed cash.  The Company has provided  a  reserve  to
currently recognize future losses on these sales.

The   Company's  selling  expenses  decreased  by  $888,000   to
approximately  $502,000 for the three-month period  ended  March
31,  1996, compared to  the 1995 period.  Selling expense  as  a
percentage  of  net sales decreased to 8.9% for the  three-month
period  ended March 31, 1996, from 13.9% in 1995.  This decrease
is  attributable  primarily to the cost sharing arrangement  the
Company  entered  into with Rooster Products during  1995,  more
fully described in Note 3 to the financial statements.


Results of Operations (cont.)

General  and  administrative expenses decreased by approximately
$633,000,  to $1,004,000 for the three-month period ended  March
31,  1996,  from the first period of  1995.   This  decrease  is
attributable  primarily  to  the cost  sharing  arrangement  the
Company  entered  into with Rooster Products during  1995,  more
fully  described in Note 5 to the financial statements.  General
and   administrative  expense  as  a  percentage  of  net  sales
increased  to  17.7% for the three-month period ended  March  31
1996,  from  16.4% in 1995. The Company continues  to  implement
cost cutting measures to compensate for its cash flow shortages.

Interest expense decreased by $114,000 to $152,000 for the three-
month period ended March 31, 1996, compared to $266,000 in 1995.
This  decrease  is attributable to the repayment  in  the  third
quarter of 1995 of certain short term promissory note agreements
with  Exportadora, and the issuance of 1,732,068 shares  of  the
Company's  common  stock  in  exchange  for  approximately  $2.2
million of shareholder notes payable.

Liquidity and Capital resources

The   opinion   of  the  Company's  independent  auditors   which
accompanies the Company's financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 1995 contains a "going concern" uncertainty emphasis
paragraph  due  to the Company's continued losses, negative  cash
flow  from operations and uncertainties related to the status  of
its  working  capital credit line. In addition, the  Company  has
implemented  a  restructuring plan designed to improve  operating
results  and cash flow from operations.  During 1995,  management
began to actively seek customer deposits on new orders.  Pursuant
to  this  policy,  the Company has been successful  in  receiving
significant advances from its principal customer.  There  can  be
no  assurance, however,  that the new financing arrangements  and
deposit  activity  will be sufficient or that  the  restructuring
plan will be successful in improving operating results.

During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company's operating
results  were  negatively impacted by cash  flow  and  liquidity
shortages.  At March 31, 1996, the Company's working capital was
a  negative $(400,000), a decrease of $1.0 million from December
31,  1995.   At March 31, 1996, the Company's current and  quick
ratios   were  approximately   0.97  to  1  and   0.11   to   1,
respectively, compared to 1.05 to 1 and 0.26 to 1, respectively,
at  December  31, 1995.  The Company's working capital,  current
ratio,  and  quick ratio decreased during the first  quarter  of
1996  primarily as a result of continued operating losses during
the quarter.

In  May  1995, the Company finalized a new credit facility  with
Heller   Financial.   Pursuant  to  the  terms  of  the   credit
agreement, Heller Financial will advance funds, up to a  maximum
of  $7.5  million,  to the Company under an accounts  receivable
factoring arrangement based on an 80% advance rate for  domestic
receivables  and  75%  for  certain  foreign  receivables.   The
Company  will  incur  interest charges on  outstanding  advances
based on an annual rate of prime plus 2%, and will be charged  a
factoring  commission of 0.75% of net sales.   Initial  proceeds
received  under the new credit facility were used to  repay  all
outstanding  principal and interest amounts  due  in  connection
with  the  Company's previous working capital credit line  which
expired  on May, 1, 1995.  Additional proceeds received  by  the
Company  were  used  primarily  for  working  capital  purposes.
Pursuant  to  an  amendment to the original agreement  dated  in
March 1996, Heller Financial will advance funds, up to a maximum
of  $3.0  million,  to the Company under an accounts  receivable
factoring arrangement based on an 80% advance rate for  domestic
receivables and 75% for certain foreign receivables.    At March
31,  1996,  the  Company  is  not  in  compliance  with  certain
financial  covenants of the amended credit facility with  Heller
Financial.   Heller  Financial has the right to  terminate  this
agreement  and  the obligation shall mature and become  due  and
payable.   The  Company and Heller Financial have satisfactorily
concluded  discussions for a further amendment to the agreement.
No  assurances can be given, however, that the Company  will  be
successful in executing the amendment.  In the event that a  new
agreement  cannot  be obtained, the Company will  be  unable  to
continue operations as currently structured.



Liquidity and Capital resources (cont.)

In  March  1996 the Company renewed a $2.0 million  loan  from  a
Mexican bank for its subsidiary in Monterrey, Mexico.  The  loan,
which  is  funded through an agency of the Mexican government  to
support  Mexican  exports, bears interest at an  annual  rate  of
14.0%  and is due July 1, 1996.  Upon application by the Company,
the  bank, at its discretion, may approve a renewal of  the  loan
for  further additional periods.  Initial proceeds from the  loan
were  primarily used to manufacture finished goods for export  to
the United States.  Payment of principal and interest on the loan
is  jointly and severally guaranteed by Alejandro Cabrera Robles,
a  director  of  the  Company and Chairman  of  Exportadora,  and
Patrick Farrah, the Company's former Chairman.

As  part of the sharing of expenses more fully described  in  the
discussion of selling general and administrative expenses and  in
Note   3   to   the  financial  statements,  the   Company   owes
approximately  $723,000 under the cost sharing  arrangement  with
Rooster  Products.   This related entity has been  a  significant
source of the Company's  working capital needs.

The  Company  also  purchased goods  and  services  from  several
subsidiaries of Exportadora totaling approximately $310,000 during
1996.   The  balance owed to these subsidiaries at  March  31  is
approximately $266,000.

Item 3:   Default Upon Senior Securities.
       
       (a)At  March  31, 1996 the Company was not in  compliance
       with  certain  financial covenants of the amended  credit
       facility  with  Heller Financial.  Heller  Financial  has
       the  right to terminate this agreement and the obligation
       shall  mature and become due and payable.  In March  1996
       the  Company   was successful in satisfactorily  amending
       the   original  agreement.   Under  the  terms  of   this
       amendment, Heller Financial will advance funds  up  to  a
       maximum of $3.0 million at the current advance rate,  and
       selected  financial  covenants  were  established  at   a
       mutually   agreeable  level.   The  Company  and   Heller
       Financial  have satisfactorily concluded discussions  for
       a  further amendment to the agreement.  No assurances can
       be  given,  however, that the Company will be  successful
       in  executing  the amendment.  In the event  that  a  new
       agreement cannot be obtained, the Company will be  unable
       to continue operations as currently structured
               
       (b) None.

       dated   May   6,   1996)  for  its  Annual   Meeting   of
       Shareholders on June 18, 1996.
