Item 1.   Description of Business.

Introduction

Epolin Inc. ("Epolin" or the "Company") is a manufacturing and research and
development company which was incorporated in the State of New Jersey on
May 8, 1984. The Company is engaged in commercial production and sale of
specialty chemicals, especially certain dyes which management believes are
useful materials because they have the capability to absorb near infrared
radiation. Its principal offices are located at 358-364 Adams Street,
Newark, New Jersey 07105 and its telephone number is (973) 465-9495.

In April 1989, Epolin successfully completed an initial public offering of
its securities pursuant to a public offering generating net proceeds of
approximately $1,950,000. Simultaneously, upon closing of the offering,
Epolin acquired 100% of the stock of Accort Labs, Inc. ("Accort"), then an
affiliated entity.

Commencing upon completion of the Company's public offering through January
1990, the Company's efforts were primarily devoted to the renovation and
completion of its 17,000 square foot manufacturing  and office facility.
The principal product(s) that the Company developed were expanding
polymeric coatings. The Company has since curtailed this effort due
primarily to the high cost of the product and the lower price commanded by
similar products now sold into this maturing market. The Company has more
recently established itself as a supplier of near  infrared dyes as well as
other specialty chemical products. It sells its dyes primarily to lens
manufacturers who serve as the suppliers to the laser protection eyewear
market as well as the welding market.

Since completion of the Company's public offering, the Company's revenues
had been primarily generated through the synthesis and sale of specialty
organic chemical products. Building upon this base, the Company singled out
near infrared dye technology as a most promising product line and has
emphasized the development, manufacture and sale of these dyes to the
optical industry.

The Company's prior emphasis on the expanding monomer technology has been
significantly modified. The expanding monomers failed to reach any
significant level of sales and sales growth because the price of UV
coatings, a major application for  the technology, had fallen dramatically
and the market could not sustain the higher pricing for the Company's
product. Research and development on expanding monomer applications was
therefore curtailed and the Company became fully committed to specialty
chemical manufacture especially to near infrared dye development,
manufacture and sales. This part of the product line has proven to be a
successful one to pursue in that the sales of  these dyes have averaged at
a growth rate of approximately 15% to 20% per year for the last five years.
No assurance can be given that such trend will continue. The Company
believes that its future lies with dye technology and is formulating long
range plans to exploit new applications for both the near infrared dyes as
well as other dyes. Paralleling the growth of the dye business, the Company
has maintained a level of production and sales of specialty products made
on a custom basis. These include additives for plastics, thermochromic
materials for use in paints as well as other specialty chemicals made in
low volume to sell at prices that reflect the value of the product. A
discussion of this market is described in the first subsection that
follows. Thereafter the current market for dyes are described as well as
the newer  applications which will be the basis for new markets for dyes.

In July 1997, the Board of Directors of Epolin approved a plan of merger
(the "Plan") wherein Epolin's wholly-owned subsidiary, Accort, would merge
into Epolin.  The effective date of the Plan was deemed to have occurred as
of the beginning of fiscal 1998.  The merger is currently pending approval
with the State of New Jersey.  As a result, Accort's assets, liabilities
and stockholders' equity as of March 1, 1997 were transferred to Epolin.
Accort had no transactions for the year ended February 28, 1998.

The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Epolin Holding Corp. ("Epolin
Holding"), was incorporated in the State of New Jersey as a real estate
holding company.  Prior to being acquired by the Company in January 1998,
it was owned and controlled by Murray S. Cohen and James Ivchenko (officers
and directors of the Company).  (See Part III, Item 12).

This report contains certain forward-looking statements and information
relating to the Company that are based on the beliefs and assumptions made
by the Company's management as well as information currently available to
the management.  When used in this document, the words "anticipate",
"believe", "estimate", and "expect" and similar expressions, are intended
to identify forward-looking statements.  Such statements reflect the
current views of the Company with respect to future events and are subject
to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions.  Should one or more of
these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions
prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described
herein as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected.  The Company does
not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

Specialty Chemical Products

Although the Company is heavily engaged in the manufacture and sale of
dyes,  specialty chemical manufacture continues to constitute approximately
22% of its sales.  It is currently working on the preparation and sale of a
variety of specialty chemical products on behalf of companies that sell
into the adhesives, plastics, aerospace,  pharmaceutical and flavors and
fragrance industries.  The Company's products primarily serve as
intermediates, additives and processing aids for complex chemical
formulations. The Company markets its products to other companies who are
in need of low level quantities of unique chemicals which provide
specialized functions and are necessary elements in complex chemical
mixtures manufactured by the Company's respective customers. These products
are produced on a low volume basis in chemical production equipment ranging
from 50 liter size flasks to two hundred gallon reactors. The Company
sustains this business because its customers find it economically
inefficient to manufacture such low volume specialty chemicals for their
own use. Raw materials utilized in connection with the preparation of
specialty chemical products are either available from chemical suppliers or
made by the Company in its own facilities.

This segment of the Company's business is manufactured on an individual
basis to meet each customers respective needs. Presently, the Company
provides products used as components in plastics, adhesives and coatings,
flavors and odorant mixtures, pharmaceutical and medical products and
aerospace materials.

Although the specialty chemical business currently commands approximately
22% of total sales, the Company does not expect this segment of its
business to grow. It has, instead, made a strong research and development
commitment to the growth of the specialty dye business. This market is
described in segments in the following subsections.

Dyes for Laser Protection

The Company has sold near infrared dyes since 1990 to customers who
manufacture and sell eyewear to protect personnel from the harmful effects
of laser light. In the first stages of the Company's marketing efforts, the
Company sold dyes that had a special capability to absorb the emissions of
the neodynium-YAG laser. This laser was and is used by the military for
range finders carried by tanks. Following the Company's success in selling
dyes for military usage, new markets were developed selling to
manufacturers of safety eyewear for personnel who worked with lasers or
were exposed to very strong  sources of infrared  radiation.

The Company sells dyes into a market that requires the use of absorptive
dyes for face shields, helmets and goggles to protect personnel from the
harmful effects of radiation from welding. Nationally prescribed
specifications now state that welding shields must absorb specific levels
of the infrared generated by the welding arc in order to protect personnel
from eye damage. The specifications have come about because a number of
studies had shown that excessive infrared  radiation can cause the
development of premature cataracts. Thus, for different levels of
protection, a specific reduction of ultraviolet, visible and infrared
emissions are now required. As a result, the Company now offers a line of
dyes for welding  that  absorb the entire range of welding radiation.
Management believes many welding customers and potential customers are
attracted to the Company's dyes because they had been tied to dye suppliers
who would only sell the dyes if the customer were to purchase the suppliers
resin or formulated resin. Freedom to formulate any resin and do in plant
injection molding of lenses or shields, has significant cost implications
for these customers. The availability of the Company's dyes has allowed the
Company to gain new customers. The Company expects to see this welding
market grow in the future not only because of increased sensitivity to the
health effects of conventional welding methods but also because of the
increasing use of lasers for welding. These instruments will require closer
monitoring for exposure of personnel to laser light but will also require
personnel peripheral to the welding operation to be protected.

Dyes for Sun Protection

There have been various reports that near infrared radiation causes slow
but long term damage to the eye leading to premature cataracts.  Certain
customers incorporate the Company's dyes into premium sunglasses to sell at
premium pricing.  An additional value in sunglasses containing near
infrared dyes is that there is a noticeable heat reduction on the eye which
allows long term use in the sun.  Management believes that this reduces
problems associated with discomfort due to perspiration around the eye.

Dyes for Filters

A smaller but not well characterized market exists for filters that block
certain frequencies in the near infrared and visible spectrum. Most of the
inquiries come from instrument makers who purchase glass filters containing
rare earth oxides. These filters are expensive and are subject to chipping,
shattering and other breakage. Management believes the use of a clear
plastic filter containing the Company's dyes would lower cost and increase
reliability. This high value added market is under development.  No
assurance can be given that the Company will be able to successfully
develop this market.

Dyes for Heat Shields

It has been shown in experimental and theoretical studies that a window
containing near infrared dyes is capable of reducing the internal heat load
of a structure by 40 to 50 percent. This type of  application of infrared
dyes is reported in use for sun roofs of automobiles in Japan. The specific
advantage offered by near infrared dyes is heat reduction coupled with good
visible transparency. This allows high visibility while, at the same time,
effectively blocking the frequencies responsible for transporting heat.
Management believes near infrared dyes can be effectively used in a wide
variety of applications  as heat shields.  The Company has set its sights
on this potential market by initiating research and development studies
leading to dyes or dye combinations that  can meet the tight requirements
demanded by this market. Of particular concern to the Company is the need
for  long term performance which, at a minimum, requires a working lifetime
of seven years exposure to  direct sunlight. By developing dyes of greatly
improved thermal and ultraviolet stability, the Company believes it can
meet the long term exposure requirements for heat shields.  The Company
further believes that of particular importance is the ability of these new
dyes to be used in the manufacture of extruded engineering plastic
products.  Known near infrared dyes do not possess the thermal stability to
survive processing of large extruded structures.  The Company believes that
it can demonstrate that these new dyes offer a degree of freedom in
plastics processing and that this can represent an important developing
market.  No assurance can be given, however, that the foregoing can be
demonstrated, or if demonstrated, that the Company will be able to
successfully develop this market.

Dyes for Security Inks

Certain of the near infrared dyes absorb very little of the visible
spectrum. These can be used at low concentration in inks and paints and not
be visually detected. However, when viewed by reflection of an infrared
laser or lamp, the presence of dye is easily seen as a black marking.
Mechanical "readers" can be used to detect the presence of dyes by
responding with a simple "go, no-go" signal. Management believes that the
industrial security and currency marking is  potentially a large volume
application for these dyes.  No assurance can be given that the Company
will be able to successfully develop this market.

Dyes for Interlayer and Laminates

One of the most abrasion resistant surfaces is that of glass.  The Company
has found that the interlayer used for glass to glass laminates can
incorporate dyes and bond to the glass strongly.  These laminated glass
structures can perform like the plastic heat shields described above.  The
Company believes that such laminated glass structures have the added
advantage of abrasion resistance and in automotive applications, are
shatter-proof.  The Company is pursuing markets for laminates as shatter-
proof windshield and sun roofs.  No assurance can be given that the Company
will find a successful developer in this market.

Licensing Agreement

The Company's Expanding Monomer technology (which was previously emphasized
by the Company but has since been curtailed) was developed by the late Dr.
William Bailey, a former director of the Company. In June 1983, Dr. Bailey
was issued U.S. Patent 4,387,215 which granted Dr. Bailey broad generic
claims in regard to the Expanding Monomer and polymer systems.  Pursuant to
a licensing agreement dated January 31, 1986  (which terminated and
replaced a previous agreement with the Company), and as amended in 1988,
the  Company was granted until the expiration of the patent (June 2000) the
exclusive right to exploit the patent  and to manufacture, produce, market,
use and sell products and materials derived thereunder.  Pursuant to the
agreement, the Company is required to pay a percentage royalty (based on
various levels of sales) and a fixed royalty fee of $50,000 per year
(reduced by percentage royalties, if any, paid during that year). Fixed
royalties have not been paid since 1990 because the Company decided to
postpone payments under the licensing agreement pending receipt of orders
for Expanding Monomer products. Since then, and as described above, the
Company has curtailed this technology.  As provided in the agreement, Dr.
Bailey's sole remedy for non-payment of fixed royalties shall be the
cancellation of the licensing agreement without further recourse against
the Company.   Although the Company has not received any notification from
Dr. Bailey's estate regarding termination or cancellation of the licensing
agreement, any such notice that the Company would receive would have no
material impact on the Company's business since the Company has previously
decided to curtail the development of Expanding Monomer technology.

Effect of Compliance With Government Regulation

Manufacturers of chemical products are subject to extensive Federal and
State environmental regulations. Although the Company believes that its
manufacturing processes do not result in the emission of volatile organic
vapors into the atmosphere, and that the Company is not  in violation of
any State or Federal environmental regulations, the Company is required to
comply with such regulations with respect to manufacture, storage and/or
disposal of toxic materials. To the Company's knowledge, it is in
compliance with present regulations.  (See also Part I, Item 3 for
information on a legal proceeding settled in August 1997).  However, no
assurances can be given that future regulations will not be adopted,
compliance with which will result in substantial expense to, and otherwise
adversely affect the Company's business. In addition, the Company is
subject to the State of New Jersey Industrial Site Recovery Act (ISRA),
which, among other requirements, requires the Company to obtain prior
approval before relocating its facilities or consummating a transaction
that would result in a change in control of the Company. The Company's
facilities are subject to inspection to ascertain whether the Company has
complied with State environmental regulations.  While the Company believes
it has complied with such regulations, there can be no assurance that the
Company will not be required to incur expenses to remedy any future
environmental violations discovered. The Company is in the process of
registering certain new and proprietary products with the Toxic Substances
Control Agency (TSCA) which is required in order for the Company to offer
for sale any new chemical product.  No assurances can be given that such
registrations will be approved.

Research and Development

The Company has made a commitment of resources to research and development
for new dyes and for improvement of the Company's capability to provide
technical services to its dye customers. In this regard, the Company has
undertaken a dye synthesis effort to develop and produce dyes with greatly
improved thermal stability.  These dyes are now a part of the Company's
product line and sales have started to grow.  There are also plans to make
available to the Company the plastic processing equipment similar to that
used by the Company's customers to extrude and injection mold plastic-dye
formulations. Management expects that this will allow the Company to better
understand its customer's problems and to design solutions.

Competition

The Company generally experiences significant competition in all areas of
its business from numerous other companies many of which are larger and
better financed.  At the present time, however, the Company believes that
it has a unique position as a supplier of near infrared dyes. Management
believes that the only other suppliers of these dyes use them as a vehicle
to sell other products.  Management believes that these companies will only
sell the dye to purchasers of their resins or to those who buy their
formulated resin or their finished lenses. Such companies do not sell the
pure dye which is done by the Company. Insofar as the major profit
incentive comes from the manufacture and sale of finished product,
Management believes those companies that have the capability to formulate
dyes in resin and injection mold the formulated resin, have a strong
incentive to purchase the dye without any other requirements.  However, in
the future, other dye manufacturers may change their policy and sell dye
directly.  This will present the Company with a challenge to its pricing
structure. However, because of the Company's low overhead, it is believed
that such a challenge can be met successfully.

The Company has also invested resources in improved processes for the
manufacture of dyes so that the Company can consider itself a low cost
producer. The research and development program has introduced a new family
of near infrared dyes that show a marked improvement in thermal and light
stability over existing dyes. The Company believes that this new family of
dyes will allow it to maintain a strong position as a dye supplier for
laser safety and welding  optical wear.

Technological Obsolescence

The chemical and plastics industry is characterized by rapid technological
changes. Although the near infrared dyes that form the major portion of the
Company's product line have been used in protective eyewear since 1976, the
field has proven to be an active one for other applications and the Company
must anticipate competition to develop.  To remain competitive, the Company
has committed itself to make capital investments to maintain its position
as a key dye supplier in this field. There can be no assurance that the
Company's dye technology will not be rendered less competitive, or
obsolete, by the development by others of new methods to achieve laser
safety and other forms of eye protection.  Furthermore, to remain
competitive, the Company may be required to make large, ongoing capital
investments to develop and produce dyes at competitive prices. There is no
assurance that can be given that the funds for such investments will be
available to the Company.

Patents and Proprietary Protection

The Company does not rely upon patents for protection of its dye business.
It has, however, anticipated the need for such proprietary protection and
has acted by applying for patents on a class of new dyes that it has
developed.  In connection therewith, a patent was recently granted by the
U.S. Patent Office (U.S. Patent 5,686,639) for a new class of quinone
diimmonium salts in November 1997.  Other patent disclosures have been
submitted and the Company intends to prepare appropriate applications as it
deems necessary in the future.  No assurance can be given that other
patents with regard to the foregoing will be issued. The Company has
allowed its patent position on two patents it owns on Expanding Monomers to
lapse by not paying the maintenance fees. This will have no material impact
on the Company's business since the Company decided previously to curtail
the development of this technology.  The Company intends to continue an
intensive patent program on new dyes, especially in those instances where
composition of matter claims can be obtained. There can be no assurance
that these patents will be of commercial benefit to the Company, or
otherwise offer the Company protection from competing products. Although
the issuance of a patent entitles the owner to a statutory presumption of
validity, the presumption is not conclusive as to validity or the scope of
enforceability  of the claims therein. The enforceability and validity of a
patent can be challenged by litigation after its issuance and, if the
outcome of litigation is adverse to the owner of the patent, other parties
may be free to use the subject  matter covered by the patent. Moreover, the
cost of defending these patents against infringement could require
substantial expenditures which the Company may decide it is unable to
afford. In addition, persons or entities may have filed patent applications
and may have been issued patents on inventions or otherwise possess
proprietary rights to technologies potentially useful to the Company. There
can be no assurance that others may not independently develop the same,
similar or alternative technologies or otherwise obtain access to the
Company's proprietary technologies.

Marketing and Sales

The marketing of the Company's dye products is primarily the responsibility
of Mr. Chester Swasey, an executive officer of the Company. The marketing
of  specialty products which primarily include flavors and fragrances,
polymer additives and process aids is handled primarily by Mr. James
Ivchenko, President of the Company, and Dr. Murray Cohen, Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. These specialty products
are marketed to companies who need low volume amounts of unique chemicals
usually used in small amounts in complex chemical formulations.

A material portion of the Company's business is dependent on certain
customers, the loss  of which could have a material effect on operations.
During fiscal 1998, approximately 76.6% of sales were to seven customers,
two of which totaled 31.0%.  Three of these customers comprised 61.3% of
accounts receivable at February 28, 1998.

Employees

The Company presently employees approximately eight persons, all on a full
time basis of which approximately four are employed in manufacturing and
production, two in research and development, one in sales and marketing and
one in administration and supervision. The Company's employees are not
represented by labor unions.

Item 2.   Description of Property.

The Company presently occupies approximately 19,500 square feet of
manufacturing, warehouse and administrative space in Newark, New Jersey
which property the Company has occupied since June 1989.  Prior to October
1996, the Company occupied approximately 17,000 square feet of such space.
During fiscal 1996, Management decided to explore the possibility of
purchasing said property from its then owner, a non-affiliated entity which
purchase would include such additional space of approximately 2,500 square
feet.  In order to finance the purchase, the Company was advised by its
proposed lender that the members of the Company's Board of Directors would
be required to guarantee the repayment of any financing.  At a meeting of
the Board of Directors held in June 1996, only Murray S. Cohen and James
Ivchenko, each an officer and director of the Company, agreed to
participate in any such arrangement.  It was agreed that Dr. Cohen and Mr.
Ivchenko, or an entity to be formed by them, would purchase the property
and lease the property to the Company under a long term arrangement.  As a
result, Dr. Cohen and Mr. Ivchenko entered into an agreement to purchase
the property for the sum of $450,000, which agreement was prior to closing
assigned to Epolin Holding Corp. ("Epolin Holding") a company formed by Dr.
Cohen and Mr. Ivchenko to acquire the property. Such purchase was completed
in October 1996.  Simultaneously with the closing, the Company entered into
substantially similar leasing arrangements with Epolin Holding as then
existed with the former owner of the property.  Such new lease expires in
October 2001 (with three 5 year options) with annual rent of $97,740
subject to annual adjustments based on increases in the Consumer Price
Index.  Such rent includes real estate taxes and insurance expenses.  In
January 1998, Epolin Holding became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Epolin.
(See Part III, Item 12).

Item 3.   Legal Proceedings.

In August 1997, the Company settled an action which had been commenced in
May 1997 by Passaic Valley Sewerage Commissioners ("PVSC")  against the
Company in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Essex County.  PVSC is a body
politic and corporate organized pursuant to the laws of the State of New
Jersey for the purpose of collecting and treating wastewater generated in a
four-county area along the Passaic Valley river basin.  In such action,
PVSC alleged that the Company failed to submit certain required forms and
reports  and a certain completed permit application on time and that the
Company had also failed to install certain monitoring equipment.  This suit
requested that the Company be enjoined from further violations, that the
Company be declared a "significant noncomplier" and that the Company be
assessed civil penalties.  Pursuant to a Settlement Agreement entered into
in August 1997, the Company without admitting any fact, liability or fault
as to the allegations of the Complaint agreed to pay and has paid PVSC the
sum of $1,000 and PVSC has dismissed the Complaint with prejudice and
released the Company from any and all claims for civil penalties arising
from the allegations in the Complaint.

There are no other material pending legal proceedings to which the Company
is a party or to which any of its property is subject.

During the year ended February 28, 1998, the Company reported sales of
approximately $1,602,000 as compared to sales of approximately $1,414,000
during the year ended February 28, 1997, an increase of approximately
$188,000 or 13.3%.  This increase in sales was primarily attributable to an
increase in sales of the Company's near infrared absorbing dyes, and
increases in sales of new dyes and additional applications.

Operating income for fiscal 1998 increased to approximately $383,000 as
compared to operating income of approximately $297,000 for fiscal 1997, an
increase of approximately $86,000.  This change resulted primarily from
increases in sales, partially offset by increases in selling, general and
administrative expenses.  Cost of sales in fiscal 1998 was approximately
$492,000 compared to cost of sales in fiscal 1997 of approximately
$501,000.  In fiscal 1998, the Company's selling, general and
administrative expenses were approximately $727,000 as compared to selling,
general and administrative expenses of approximately $616,000 for the
fiscal year ended February 28, 1997.  This change resulted primarily from
increases in salaries, benefits and commissions, and legal and accounting
fees.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 1998, the Company realized
approximately $22,000 in interest income as compared to approximately
$13,000 in interest income for the prior year.  This increase resulted
primarily from increases in available cash in fiscal 1998.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 1998, the Company reported income
before taxes of approximately $406,000 as compared to income before taxes
of approximately $332,000 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1997.  Net
income after taxes was approximately $305,000 or $.03 per share for fiscal
1998 as compared to net income after taxes of approximately $210,000 or
$.02 per share for fiscal 1997.

Fiscal 1997 Compared to Fiscal 1996

During the year ended February 28, 1997, the Company reported sales of
approximately $1,414,000 as compared to sales of approximately $1,384,000
during the year ended February 29, 1996, an increase of approximately
$30,000 or 2%.  This increase in sales was primarily attributable to a
small increase in sales of the Company's near infrared absorbing dyes.

Operating income for fiscal 1997 decreased to approximately $297,000 as
compared to operating income of approximately $338,000 for fiscal 1996, a
decrease of approximately $41,000.  This change resulted primarily from
increases in selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset
by a decrease in cost of sales.  Cost of sales in fiscal 1997 was
approximately $501,000 compared to cost of sales in fiscal 1996 of
approximately $614,000.  In fiscal 1997, the Company's selling, general and
administrative expenses were approximately $616,000 as compared to selling,
general and administrative expenses of approximately $433,000 for the
fiscal year ended February 29, 1996. This change resulted primarily from
increases in salaries, benefits and commissions, and legal and accounting
fees.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 1997, the Company realized
approximately $13,000 in interest income as compared to approximately
$7,500 in interest income for the prior year.  This increase resulted from
increases in available cash in fiscal 1997.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 1997, the Company reported income
before taxes of approximately $332,000 as compared to income before taxes
of approximately $342,000 for the fiscal year ended February 29, 1996.  Net
income after taxes was approximately $210,000 or $.02 per share for fiscal
1997 as compared to net income after taxes of approximately $626,000 or
$.05 per  share  for fiscal 1996.  For fiscal 1997, the Company had an
income tax expense of approximately $123,000 as compared to an income tax
credit (deferred tax benefit) of approximately $284,000 for fiscal 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On February 28, 1998, the Company had working capital of approximately
$1,046,000, an equity to debt ratio of 8.44 to 1, and stockholders' equity
of approximately $1,615,000.  On February 28, 1998, the Company had
approximately $389,000 in cash and cash equivalents, total assets of
approximately $1,807,000 and total liabilities of approximately $191,000.
At February 28, 1997, the Company had total assets of approximately
$1,442,000.  The increase in total assets at February 28, 1998 as compared
to February 28, 1997 is primarily due to the inclusion in fiscal 1998 of
the property owned by Epolin Holding Corp. which became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company in January 1998.  The Company believes that its
available cash, cash flow from operations and projected revenues will be
sufficient to fund the Company's operations for the next 12 months.

The Company does not anticipate making any significant additional capital
expenditures in the immediate future as it believes its present machinery
and equipment will be sufficient to meet its near term needs.

Inflation has not significantly impacted the Company's operations.

Other Information

In March 1998 (subsequent to the end of fiscal 1998), the Board of
Directors of the Company authorized a stock repurchase program of up to
$150,000 of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock. In connection
therewith, the Company announced that purchases may be made in the open
market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time, based on
market prices and that the repurchase program may be suspended without
further notice. Management believes the Company's shares are undervalued at
current price levels and this program offers the Company a chance not only
to repurchase some of its stock at prices management perceives to be
attractive but it also enables the Company to enhance shareholder value
although no assurance can be given that any such repurchases will have such
effect.  To date, the Company has repurchased 25,000 shares of its Common
Stock under this program at $.38 per share.

Employment Contracts

In December 1995, the Company entered into a Deferred Compensation
Agreement with James Ivchenko, President of the Company, pursuant to which
annual compensation of $19,645 plus interest will be deferred until Mr.
Ivchenko reaches the age of 65 or his employment is terminated.  Annual

of his employment.  Such obligation is being funded with a life insurance
policy owned by the Company.

Employee Stock Option Plan

The Company previously  adopted an Employee Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").  
As of April 1996, options may no longer be granted under the Plan.
Under the terms of the Plan, options granted thereunder could be designated
as options which qualify for incentive stock option treatment under Section
422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or options which do
not so qualify.  In December 1995, options to acquire up to 490,000 shares
of the Company's Common Stock were granted under the Plan.  Such options
expire on December 1, 2005.  None of such options have been exercised.

     2000.  As a result, Dr. Cohen may be deemed to be the beneficial owner
     of such shares.

Item 12.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

See Part I, Item 2 for information on the leasing arrangements entered into
between  Epolin Holding, a company previously owned and controlled by
Murray S. Cohen and James Ivchenko, and the Company.  As described therein,
in October 1996, Epolin Holding purchased the premises then leased by the
Company for $450,000 and simultaneously with the closing entered into a
lease with the Company, as tenant.  The downpayment of $100,000 was
obtained from the Company evidenced by a five year promissory note of
$75,565 (after charge for three months security deposit under the terms of
the lease) payable in monthly principal payments of $1,541 including
interest at an annual rate of 8.25% (the "Downpayment Loan").

The balance of the purchase price was obtained from a bank mortgage in the
principal amount of $350,000 which mortgage was personally guaranteed by
Murray S. Cohen and James Ivchenko.  In January 1998, Dr. Cohen and Mr.
Ivchenko transferred all of the shares each of them owned in Epolin Holding
to Epolin whereby Epolin Holding became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Epolin.   In addition, contemporaneously therewith, the Company paid the
remaining balance due (including accrued interest) on the bank mortgage
which amounted to the sum of $320,990.

At February 28, 1998, the remaining amount due from Epolin Holding on the
Downpayment Loan was $71,504.  In addition, at February 28, 1998, there is
a related party receivable due from Epolin Holding in the amount of
$18,166.  Such amounts have eliminated in consolidation in the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements annexed to this report.

                       INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
EPOLIN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of Epolin,
Inc. and wholly-owned Subsidiaries as of February 28, 1998 and 1997 and the
related Consolidated Statements of Income, Stockholders' Equity, and Cash
Flows for the years ended February 28, 1998 and 1997 and February 29, 1996.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Epolin
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of February 28, 1998 and 1997 and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for the years ended February 28, 1998 and
1997 and February 29, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

Epolin, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in New Jersey to develop,
manufacture and market a class of monomer and polymer formulations with
applications in the composition and manufacture of a new type of highly
protective and durable material.  The Company's activities during its
development stage from May 8, 1984 (inception) through February 28, 1990
had been substantially devoted to developing its principal products.
Active operations in the monomer and polymer technologies have ceased.

Prior to March 1, 1997, the Company's wholly-owned Subsidiary, Accort Labs,
Inc., was engaged in the development, production and sale of near infrared
dyes to the optical industry for laser protection and welding applications
and other dyes, specialty chemical products that serve as intermediates and
additives used in the adhesive, plastic, aerospace, pharmaceutical, flavors
and fragrance industries to customers located in the eastern part of the
United States.

On July 1, 1997, the Board of Directors approved a plan of merger "Plan"
whereas the Company's wholly-owned Subsidiary Accort Labs, Inc. (the
merging corporation) would merge into Epolin, Inc. (the surviving
corporation).  The effective date of the "Plan" was March 1, 1997.  The
above "Plan" was filed with the State of New Jersey on July 25, 1997 and is
pending approval as of February 28, 1998.  As a result, the merging
corporation's assets, liabilities and stockholder's equity as of March 1,
1997 were transferred to the surviving corporation.  The merging
corporation had no transactions for the year ended February 28, 1998.

The Company's wholly-owned Subsidiary, Epolin Holding, Corp. was
incorporated in New Jersey as a real estate holding company.  Prior to
being acquired on January 29, 1998, it. was controlled by two
officers/stockholders of the Company with the majority of its assets
consisting of land and a building.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of preparing the statement of cash
flows, includes cash in bank and money market accounts.

Concentrations of Credit Risks - The Company has cash deposits in financial
institutions in excess of the amount insured by agencies of the federal
government in the amounts of $289,296 and $171,825 at February 28,1998 and
1997, respectively.  In evaluating this credit risk, the Company
periodically evaluates the stability of these financial institutions.

Inventories - Consists of raw materials, work in process, finished goods
and supplies valued at the lower of cost or market under the first-in,
first-out method.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The fair values of all reported
assets and liabilities which represent financial instruments approximate
the carrying values of such amounts.

Property, Plant and Equipment - Stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. Provisions for depreciation are computed on
the straight-line and declining balance methods, based upon the estimated
useful lives of the assets.

Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $61,890, $68,396 and $70,053
for the fiscal years 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Income taxes -The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income taxes",
wherein the asset and liability method is used in accounting for income
taxes.  Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the
basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax
purposes.  The temporary differences relate primarily to different
accounting methods used for depreciation and amortization of property and
equipment, goodwill, allowance for doubtful accounts and net operating loss
carry forwards.  A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets
when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized through future operations.

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 reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the amounts of sales and expenses during
the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

for the exclusive right to manufacture, produce, market, use and sell
products and materials under U.S. Patent 4,387,215 related to the Company's
now abandoned expanding monomer technology.  Included in its terms was a
commitment for payment of annual fixed royalties of $50,000 and royalty
payments as a percentage of gross sales.  Payment due November 30, 1989 was
paid over the twelve-month period ending May 1990, with subsequent payments
postponed until such time as demand for Expanding Monomer technology
commenced.  The Company abandoned this technology and has since reversed to
income all accruals made in prior years that related to unpaid fixed
royalty payments.  Under the terms of the agreement, the licensor's only
remedy against the Company for non-payment of any prior fixed royalty
payment is cancellation of the license agreement. To date, no notification
regarding the termination or cancellation of the licensing agreement has
been received from the licensor's estate.
