              CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires that management make certain estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. The reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period may also be affected by the estimates and assumptions management is
required to make. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
 
     In the opinion of management these estimates reflect all adjustments,
consisting of only normal recurring accruals, including elimination of all
significant intercompany balances and transactions, which are necessary to a
fair statement of the results for the interim periods covered by such
statements. Certain amounts from prior year financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These financial
statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements included in the Company s 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     Effective January 10, 1997, the SDI Board of Directors, acting as the
Committee authorized options under the 1994 Incentive Stock Option Plan, reduced
the vesting period for exercise of stock options to six months after the grant
date with respect to one-third of the shares covered by options, and this was
made effective for all outstanding as well as newly granted options. The
remaining two-thirds of the optioned shares retain their original five year
vesting period.
 
     Consistent with the 1996 Plan, effective May 21, 1997, the SDI Board of
Directors, acting as the Committee under the 1996 Incentive Stock Option Plan,
granted options for 94,408 shares at an exercise price of $21.00 per share to
substantially all the employees of the Company.
 
4.  NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, Earnings per Share
which establishes new requirements for computing and presenting earnings per
share ("EPS"). Specifically, SFAS No. 128 replaces the presentation of primary
EPS with a presentation of basic EPS, requires dual presentation of basic and
diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex
capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the
 
                                        5

                              STEEL DYNAMICS, INC.
 
      CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and
denominator of the diluted EPS computation. SFAS No. 128 is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997; earlier
application is not permitted. Management has determined that the adoption of
SFAS No. 128 will not have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
 
     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Comprehensive Income. SFAS No.
130 becomes effective in 1998 and requires reclassification of earlier financial
statements for comparative purposes. SFAS No. 130 requires that changes in the
amounts of certain items, including foreign currency translation adjustments and
gains and losses on certain securities be shown in the financial statements.
SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific format for the financial statement in
which comprehensive income is reported, but does require that an amount
representing total comprehensive income be reported in that statement.
Management has not yet determined the effect, if any, of SFAS No. 130 on the
consolidated financial statements.
 
     Also in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information. This Statement will change the way
public companies report information about segments of their business in their
annual financial statements and requires them to report selected segment
information in their quarterly reports issued to shareholders. It also requires
entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the
material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenues, and its major
customers. The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997. Management has not yet determined the effect, if any, of SFAS 131 on
the consolidated financial statements.
 
5.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
     On July 9, 1997, the Company amended its credit facility which increased
the amounts committed to the Company from $345 million to $450 million, changed
the maturities, revised the covenants and lowered the effective interest rate
charged by the bank group.
 
     As a result of the substantial modifications with this amendment, the
Company will incur an extraordinary loss of approximately $10.5 million (net of
tax benefit of $2.2 million) related to prepayment penalties and the write-off
of the financing costs associated with the original credit facility.
 
     Effective July 1, 1997, the Company entered into an interest rate swap
agreement with The First National Bank of Chicago ("First Chicago") to make
fixed rate payments at 6.935% and to receive variable rate payments at LIBOR on
a notional amount of $100 million. The interest rate swap agreement was entered
into as an anticipatory hedge of the seven year term tranche of the new credit
agreement. The maturity date of the interest rate swap agreement is July 2,
2001; however, on June 28, 2001 First Chicago has the right to extend the
maturity date to July 1, 2004 at predetermined interest rates. The interest rate
swap agreement will be accounted for on a settlement basis. The Company is
exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty for
the net interest differential when variable rates exceed the fixed rate.
However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparty.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
  Net Sales
 
     Net sales totaled approximately $102.7 million for the second quarter 1997
and $200.8 million for the first half of 1997 compared to $66.4 million for the
second quarter in 1996 and $98.7 for the first half of 1996. SDI commenced
production of primary grade steel on January 2, 1996 and has continued to
increase its net sales as its production tons increased. By the end of the
second quarter of operations ended June 30, 1996, the Company was operating at
an annualized rate of 642,000 tons, or 46% of full capacity. By the end of June
1997, the Company was operating at an annualized rate of 1.2 million tons, or
83% of full capacity. In addition, the average sales price per prime ton
increased from $302 for January 1996 to $357 for June 1997 and the percentage of
prime tons produced increased from 84% for the six months ended June 29, 1996 to
95% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and from 34% for the quarter ended
June 29, 1996 to 95% for the quarter ended June 30, 1997.
 
  Cost of Goods Sold
 
     Cost of goods sold totaled approximately $76.3 million, or 74% of net
sales, for the second quarter of 1997 and approximately $150.2 million, or 75%
of net sales, for the first half of 1997 compared to approximately $60.4 million
for the second quarter of 1996 and approximately $95.6 million for the first
half of 1996. As the Company continues to increase the number of prime tons
sold, the Company expects that cost of goods sold will continue to increase but,
as a percentage of net sales, the cost of goods sold will decrease.
 
  Selling, General and Administrative
 
     Selling, general and administrative was approximately $3 million and $7.1
million for the second quarter of 1996 and 1997, respectively, and approximately
$5.9 million and $12.5 million for the first half of 1996 and 1997,
respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for
the first six months of 1997 was due to approximately $3.2 million of start up
costs for the Cold Mill and Caster Projects and approximately $1.9 million of
profit sharing expense.
 
  Interest Expense
 
     Interest expense totaled approximately $6.3 million and $1.6 million for
the second quarter of 1996 and 1997, respectively, and approximately $12.1 and
$4 million for the first half of 1996 and 1997, respectively.
 
  Foreign Currency Gain
 
     The foreign currency gain represents transaction gains incurred by the
Company for purchases of equipment used within the Company's mini-mill. A
portion of the purchase price, as stated within the contract to purchase the
equipment, was denominated in German marks. The Company committed to purchase
the equipment in December 1993 with settlement of the liability primarily
occurring during the construction period of the mini-mill. No commitments for
equipment purchases denominated in a foreign currency exist as of June 30, 1997.
Foreign currency gain totaled $260,000 and $261,000 for the six months ended
June 29, 1996 and June 30, 1997, respectively.
 
  Interest Income
 
     Interest income totaled approximately $486,000 and $512,000 and the second
quarter of 1996 and 1997, respectively, and approximately $579,000 and $1.3
million for the first half of 1996 and 1997, respectively.
 
  Taxes
 
     At December 31, 1996, the Company had available net operating losses that
can be carried forward for federal income tax purposes of approximately $49.4
million of which $200,000 expire in 2009, $2.3 million
 
                                        7

expire in 2010 and $46.9 million expire in 2011. Because of the Company's
limited operating history, a valuation allowance has been established for a
portion of the deferred tax asset. The Company will continually access the need
for a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset based on expectations of
future taxable income.
 
     For the six months ended June 30, 1997, income taxes are computed using the
Company s expected annual effective tax rate, which gives effect to the
utilization of available net operating loss carryforwards.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     Steel Dynamics' business is capital intensive and requires substantial
expenditures for, among other things, the purchase and maintenance of equipment
used in its steelmaking and finishing operations and compliance with
environmental laws. The Company's liquidity needs arise primarily from capital
investments, working capital requirements and principal and interest payments on
its indebtedness. Since its inception, SDI has met these liquidity requirements
with cash provided by equity, long-term borrowings, state and local government
grants and capital cost reimbursements.
 
     Net cash used in operating activities totaled approximately $16.8 million
for the second quarter of 1996 and $44.4 million for the first half of 1996. The
use of cash in operating activities for the second quarter and first half of
1996 primarily related to the build-up of raw material inventory as a result of
favorable pricing and the substantial increase in accounts receivable from the
beginning of the year as a result of increased sales. During the second quarter
of 1997, the Company provided net cash of approximately $10.5 million from
operating activities resulting from net income and decreases in accounts
receivable through controlling the number and amount of aged accounts
outstanding. Cash was used in operations to build up raw material inventory
resulting from favorable pricing levels. During the first half of 1997, the
Company provided net cash of approximately $48.5 million from operating
activities resulting from net income and a net decrease in raw material
inventory due to less favorable pricing levels. Net cash used in investing
activities totaled approximately $13.2 million from the second quarter of 1996,
approximately $35.1 million for the second quarter of 1997, approximately $18.1
million from the first half of 1996, and approximately $81.4 million from the
first half of 1997. Investing activities primarily consisted of capital
expenditures of approximately $6.6 million and $35.2 million for the second
quarter of 1996 and 1997, respectively, and approximately $12 million and $81.5
million for the first half of 1996 and 1997, respectively, for the construction
of the Company's existing facilities and the beginning of the Cold Mill Project.
Additionally, approximately $7 million was invested in short-term investments
during the second quarter of 1996. Cash provided by financing activities totaled
approximately $40 million for the second quarter of 1996 and approximately $76.5
million for the first half of 1996. Cash used in financing activities totaled
approximately $1.2 for the second quarter of 1997, and approximately $2.2 for
the first half of 1997. The 1996 increase in cash provided by financing
activities primarily relates to approximately $35 million of borrowings under
its credit facility.
 
     The Company's Credit Agreement provides for up to an aggregate of $300.0
million of senior term loans ("Senior Term Loans") and a $45.0 million revolving
credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") for working capital purposes,
subject to borrowing base restrictions. Indebtedness outstanding under the
Credit Agreement is collateralized by a first priority lien on substantially all
of the assets of the Company. Of the $300.0 million in senior term loan
commitments, the Company borrowed $150.0 million of the Senior Term Loans for
the construction of the mini-mill and $150.0 million was designated and remains
available for the construction of the Cold Mill Project. As of June 30 1997,
$150.0 million of Senior Term Loans were outstanding and there were no
outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
 
     As of June 30, 1997, the Company's long-term debt (including the current
portion) was approximately $205.5 million. Approximately 80% of this
indebtedness bears interest at floating rates.
 
     On July 9, 1997, the Company amended its credit facility which increased
the amount committed to the Company from $345 million to $450 million, changed
the maturities, revised the covenants and lowered the effective interest rate
charged by the bank group.

<PAGE>   10
 
     As a result of the substantial modifications with this amendment, the
Company will incur an extraordinary loss of approximately $10.5 million (net of
tax benefit of $2.2 million) related to prepayment penalties and the write-off
of the financing costs associated with the original credit facility.
 
     The Company currently estimates that the funds required for the
construction and start-up of the Cold Mill, IDI and Caster Projects will total
approximately $350.0 million. Approximately $155 million of that amount has been
incurred through June 30, 1997. The Company intends to finance the cost of the
Cold Mill and Caster Projects with cash on hand and borrowings available under
the credit facility.
 
     The Company will use $20.0 million of the funds $25.4 million of net
proceeds from a private placement of its common stock in 1996 to finance a
portion of the IDI Project and intends to finance the remaining $45.0 million
with additional debt. Although IDI is negotiating to obtain the financing
needed, it has not yet secured a commitment. The Company expects the financing
for the IDI project will be finalized by the end of July, 1997. However, no
assurance can be given that the IDI financing commitment currently being
negotiated will be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. The
Company raised approximately $140.2 million (net of expenses) with its initial
public offering in November 1996. Approximately $56.0 million was used to prepay
the subordinated notes, including accrued interest and prepayment fees. As of
December 31, 1996, the Company had approximately $58.0 million invested in
short-term cash investments. This cash will continue to be used to fund the
construction of the Caster Project as the costs of construction are incurred.
Approximately $26.2 million of the IPO proceeds were used for working capital
needs through the end of the year.

     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Comprehensive Income which
becomes effective in 1998 and requires reclassification of earlier financial
statements for comparative purposes. SFAS No. 130 requires that changes in the
amounts of certain items, including foreign currency translation adjustments and
gains and losses on certain securities be shown in the financial statements.
SFAS No. 130 does not require a specific format for the financial statement in
which comprehensive income is reported, but does require that an amount
representing total comprehensive income be reported in that statement.
Management has not yet determined the effect, if any, of SFAS No. 130 on the
consolidated financial statements.
 
     Also in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information. This Statement will change the way
public companies report information about segments of their business in their
annual financial statements and requires them to report selected segment
information in their quarterly reports issued to shareholders. It also requires
entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the
material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenues, and its major
customers. The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997. Management has not yet determined the effect, if any, of SFAS No. 131
on the consolidated financial statements.
 
ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES
 
     SDI has incurred and, in the future, will continue to incur capital
expenditures and operating expenses for matters relating to environmental
control, remediation, monitoring and compliance. Steel Dynamics believes that
compliance with current environmental laws and regulations is not likely to have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of
operations or liquidity; however, environmental laws and
 
                                        9

regulations have changed rapidly in recent years and SDI may become subject to
more stringent environmental laws and regulations in the future.
 
INFLATION
 
     SDI does not believe that inflation has had a material effect on its
results of operations.

(a) Net income (loss) per share for the quarters ended June 29, 1996 and June
    30, 1997 were calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted
    average number of shares of common stock outstanding including the
    antidilutive effect of shares issued from September 23, 1995 through
    September 23, 1996 using the treasury stock method. Net income per share for
    the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 excludes the antidilutive
    effect of common stock equivalents.
 
(b) Fully diluted earnings per share is the same as primary earnings per share.
