1.   The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
     information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
     adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
     statement of the results for the interim periods. The condensed
     consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
     consolidated financial statements and notes thereto together with
     management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
     operations contained in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
     year ended December 31, 1997. In addition, the Registrant's statements in
     this Form 10-Q report may be considered forward-looking and involve risks
     and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results. A
     discussion of these risks and uncertainties is contained in the
     Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
     1997. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31,
     1998 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full
     year.

2.   The basic and diluted earnings per share computations in the condensed
     consolidated statements of income are based on the weighted-average number
     of shares outstanding during each period reported. The following data show
     the amounts used in computing earnings per share and the effect on the
     weighted-average number of shares of dilutive potential common stock.

4.     The Registrant has reclassified the presentation of certain prior-year
       information to conform with the current presentation format.

5.     The Registrant adopted Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting
       Comprehensive Income," on January 1, 1998. As required by the Statement,
       the Registrant displays the accumulated balance of other comprehensive
       income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital
       in the equity section of the Balance Sheet. Items considered to be other
       comprehensive income include adjustments made for foreign currency
       translation (under Statement 52), pensions (under Statement 87) and
       unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities
       (under Statement 115). Comprehensive income for the three months ended
       March 31, 1998 and 1997 was $27,102 and $23,467, respectively.

Changes in Financial Condition
- ------------------------------

The balance sheet of the Registrant continued to reflect a strong financial
position at March 31, 1998. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments
increased to $59,776 at March 31, 1998 compared to $56,769 at December 31, 1997.
These assets along with securities and other investments accounted for 20% of
total assets at March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. Securities
and other investments consist principally of tax-free municipal bonds, preferred
stock, and other investments.

Future capital expenditures and increases in working capital are expected to be
financed primarily through internally generated funds. The Registrant's
investment portfolio is available for any funding needs if required. External
financing is also available if needed through the Registrant's lines of credit.
At March 31, 1998, the Registrant had unused lines of credit approximating
$140,000 and the Registrant is not restricted as to the use of funds borrowed
under these credit agreements. Therefore, such commitments represent an
additional and immediate source of liquidity. During the first quarter of 1998,
the Registrant had outstanding $20,800 in Industrial Development Revenue Bonds
used to finance the construction of new manufacturing facilities. The Company's
strong financial position enhances its ability to obtain additional funds if
required.

Shareholders' equity per Common Share at March 31, 1998 improved to $9.93 from
$9.69 at December 31, 1997. The first quarter cash dividend of $0.14 per share
was paid on March 27, 1998 to shareholders of record on March 6, 1998. On April
15, 1998 the second quarter cash dividend of $0.14 per share was declared
payable on June 5, 1998 to shareholders of record on May 15, 1998. Diebold,
Incorporated shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol
of DBD. The market price during the first three months of 1998 fluctuated within
the range of $41.688 and $55.313.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

First Quarter 1998 Comparison to First Quarter 1997
- ---------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the first quarter of 1998 increased from the same period in 1997
by $31,131 or 12%. Total gross profit increased $9,776 or 11% over the first
quarter's performance in 1997. Product gross profit accounted for the majority
of this increase as the result of increased sales volume of self-service
terminals both domestically and internationally. Operating expenses increased
$8,222 or 15% over the same period in 1997 largely due to higher selling
expenses resulting from the increases in sales volumes, expanding global
operations, expenditures from various new marketing programs and expenditures
related to the continuing research and development of new products. Operating
profit increased $1,554 or 4% over first quarter 1997's performance.

          (Unaudited / Dollars in thousands except for per share data)

The Registrant's backlog of unfilled orders was $250,133 at March 31, 1998,
compared to $232,558 at March 31, 1997, a $17,575 or 8% increase. The Registrant
believes, however, that order backlog information is not, by itself, a
meaningful indicator of future revenue streams. There are numerous factors which
influence the amount and timing of revenue recognized in future periods.

ITEM 4.      Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
