NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation --------------------- The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 1997. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The June 30, 1996 condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Earnings Per Common Share ------------------------- Primary earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income (less preferred dividends, net of tax benefits) by the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period. On a fully-diluted basis, both net earnings and shares outstanding are adjusted to assume the conversion of the convertible preferred stock. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 3.

Accounting Pronouncements ------------------------- The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of," and SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" which became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The Company adopted these statements effective July 1, 1996. SFAS 121 establishes criteria for recognizing, measuring and disclosing impairments of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles and goodwill. The adoption of SFAS 121 in the quarter ended September 30, 1996 did not have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. SFAS 123 allows entities to choose between a new fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation and the current method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 ("APB 25"). Entities electing to continue using APB 25 must make annual pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair market value method of accounting had been applied. The Company will continue accounting for stock-based compensation in accordance with APB 25. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ----------------------------------------------------------- Net income for the quarter was $8.1 million and primary earnings per share were $.46 versus $11.9 million or $.70 per share in the same quarter last year. The decrease in earnings was primarily a result of an extended maintenance shutdown period, which resulted in lower manu- facturing levels and higher repair spending levels. Sales were $194.7 million, a 6 percent increase over the $184.5 million in the same period last year. The increase in sales was primarily the result of including the results of companies acquired after September 30, 1995, and an improved Steel Division product mix. Core Steel Division unit volume shipments were down 6 percent, compared to the year earlier period. Cost of sales as a percent of net sales increased to 76 percent in the current year's first fiscal quarter from 74 percent in last year's first quarter. A decrease in raw material costs was more than offset by increased maintenance costs as a result of the extended shutdown period. The extended shutdown was needed as a result of the high operating rate of manufacturing facilities over the past two fiscal years and the expectation that the high operating rate will continue. Selling and administrative costs were higher by $4.6 million, primarily as a result of increased depreciation, amortization, freight, travel costs and the inclusion of costs for the companies acquired during the past year. The effective tax rate for the first quarter was lower than the anticipated full year rate for fiscal 1997 because of changes in estimates in foreign tax liabilities.
