Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements  included in this report and is qualified in its entirety by the
foregoing.

INTRODUCTION

Epolin, Inc. (the "Company") is a manufacturing and research and development
company which was incorporated in the State of New Jersey in May 1984.  The
Company is principally engaged in the development, production and sale of near
infrared dyes to the optical industry for laser protection and for 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 a group of customers
primarily in the United States, Europe, Australia and the Far East.

This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements and information
relating to the Company that are based on the beliefs and assumptions by the
Company's management as well as information currently available to the
management.  When used herein, 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.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the quarter ended May 31, 1999, the Company reported sales of
approximately $491,700 as compared to sales of approximately $302,400 during
the quarter ended May 31, 1998, an increase of approximately $189,300 or 62.6%.
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
for new applications.

Operating income for the quarter ended May 31, 1999 increased to approximately
$268,300 as compared to operating income of approximately $40,300 for the
quarter ended May 31, 1998, an increase of approximately $228,000.  This change
resulted primarily from an increase in sales during the quarter ended May 31,
1999 as compared to the comparable 1998 period, with cost of sales remaining
substantially the same for the quarter ended May 31, 1999 compared to the
quarter ended May 31, 1998.  In addition, selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased in the quarter ended May 31, 1999 compared to  the
comparable 1998 period.   Cost of sales for the three months ended May 31, 1999
was approximately $111,800 as compared to cost of sales during the three months
ended May 31, 1998 of approximately $105,800.  During the three months ended
May 31, 1999, the Company's selling, general and administrative expenses were
approximately $111,600 as compared to selling, general and administrative
expenses of approximately $156,300 for the three months ended May 31, 1998.

During the three months ended May 31, 1999, the Company realized approximately
$7,900 in interest income as compared to approximately $3,900 in interest
income for the comparable period of 1998.

During the quarter ended May 31, 1999, the Company reported income before taxes
of approximately $276,100 as compared to income before taxes of approximately
$44,200 for the three months ended May 31, 1998.  Net income after taxes was
approximately $182,200 for the three months ended May 31, 1999 as compared to
income after taxes of approximately $43,800 for the three months ended May 31,
1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On May 31, 1999, the Company had working capital of approximately $1,523,180,
an equity to debt ratio of approximately 6.39 to 1, and stockholders' equity of
approximately $1,900,000.  On May 31, 1999, the Company had approximately
$992,000 in cash and cash equivalents, total assets of approximately $2,198,000
and total liabilities of approximately $298,000.  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.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs having been written
using two digits, rather then four, to define the applicable year. Software
programs and hardware that have date-sensitive software or embedded chips may
recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.  This
could result in a major system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions
of operations, including a temporary inability to engage in normal business
activities.

Based on recent assessments, the Company determined that its critical software
(primarily widely-used software packages) and all of its critical business
systems, including manufacturing instrumentation, are already year 2000
compliant.  Nevertheless, throughout 1999, assessment, testing and remediation,
if necessary, will continue.

The Company is also actively working with critical suppliers at products and
services to determine that the suppliers' operations and the products and
services they provide are year 2000 compliant or to monitor their progress
toward year 2000 compliance.  In this regard, the Company believes its greatest
year 2000 risk for disruption to its business is the potential noncompliance of
third parties.  As a result, the Company has initiated communications with
third parties with whom the Company has material direct and indirect business
relationships. The Company is currently in the process of contacting third
parties in order to determine the extent to which the Company's business is
vulnerable to the third parties' failure to make their systems year 2000
compliant.  To date, the Company is still continuing to gather information from
such other third parties.

The Company currently does not have a contingency plan in the event a
particular system, including the systems of material third parties, are not
year 2000 compliant.  Such a plan will be developed if it becomes clear that
the Company is not going to achieve its scheduled compliance objectives.
Although no assurance can be given that there will be no interruption of
operations in the year 2000, the Company believes (and assuming that third
parties with whom the Company has material business relationships successfully
remediate their own year 2000 issues) that it has reasonably assessed all of
its systems in order to ensure that the Company will not suffer any material
adverse effect from the year 2000 issue.

The Company has used and will continue to use internal resources to resolve its
year 2000 issue. Costs incurred to date by the Company have not been material
and the Company currently expects that the total cost of these programs will
not exceed $60,000.

OTHER INFORMATION

In March 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.  A total of 220,000 shares have been repurchased under this program
through May 31, 1999, which includes 65,000 shares repurchased during the
quarter ended May 31, 1999.
