                    NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED
                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


  1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

       The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Meadowcraft,
       Inc., ("the Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally
       accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, and are
       presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10
       of Regulation S-X. The financial statements should be read in conjunction
       with the audited financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's
       Prospectus dated November 25, 1997.

       In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements included
       herein reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring
       adjustments, necessary to present fairly the information set forth
       therein. The 1998 interim results of operations are not necessarily
       indicative of results expected for the full year. Revenues and expenses
       are subject to material seasonal variations. The seasonal nature of the
       Company's business requires an inventory build-up during the fall and
       winter months in order to meet customer demand during the spring and
       summer selling seasons. The Company relies upon bank borrowing and cash
       flow from operations to finance this production.

  2.   INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

       On November 25, 1997, the Company commenced its initial public offering
       (the "Offering") of 3,225,000 shares of common stock at $13.00 per share.
       On December 10, 1997, the underwriters exercised their over allotment
       option to purchase an additional 483,750 shares of common stock from the
       Company at $13.00 per share.

       The proceeds from the Offering and the over allotment option totaled
       $48,213,750 net of underwriting discount of $3,374,963 and expenses of
       approximately $527,000 were $44,311,787. The proceeds were used to pay
       $32,700,000 of the S Corporation Distribution, with the balance of
       $11,611,787 used to fund capital expenditures.

       Upon completion of the Offering, the Company terminated its S Corporation
       election. The Company will make an additional S Corporation Distribution
       based upon the Company's S Corporation earnings attributable to the
       period from May 4, 1997 to the date of termination of the S Corporation
       election (November 25, 1997).

       In order to determine the S Corporation earnings attributable to this
       period, the Company will prorate the Company's taxable income for the 12
       month period ending May 2, 1998, based on the number of days in the 12
       month period for which the Company was an S Corporation. The Company is
       in the process of finalizing taxable income for this period in order to
       determine the S Corporation distribution; however, the Company estimates
       such distribution will approximate $17 million.

       As a result of the Company's Offering and termination of the S
       Corporation election, the Company changed its financial reporting
       year-end to July 31.

       NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

       Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, Earnings
       Per Share, is effective for financial statements issued for periods
       ending after December 15, 1997, including interim periods. The statement
       requires presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings
       per share. Basic earnings per common share excludes securities or other
       contracts to issue common stock such as options while diluted earnings
       per common share considers the potential dilution that could occur if
       securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or
       converted into common stock. The weighted average shares outstanding
       diluted reflected herein for the three and nine months ended May 2, 1998,
       include 18,019 shares issuable related to options, which were issued on
       November 25, 1997. No options existed during the 1997 periods.
       Additionally, on February 1998, the Securities and Exchange Commission
       ("SEC") released Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 98. SAB98 revised
       prior guidance of the SEC to reflect the requirements of SFAS128. As a
       result of SFAS128 and SAB98, the accompanying earnings per share reflect
       historical earnings per share, which which excludes a tax provision for
       all periods in which the Company was an S Corporation. The pro forma
       earnings per share amounts reflect a provision for income taxes as if the
       Company was a taxable corporation. Furthermore, upon termination of the
       Company's S Corporation election the Company recorded net deferred tax
       assets in the amount of $3,200,000, which was recorded as a credit in
       income taxes.

       NOTE 3 - INVENTORIES

       Inventories are valued at First-In, First-Out ("FIFO") cost, which is not

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 2, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 3, 1997


NET SALES

Net Sales increased $5.9 million, or 7.8% to $81.8 million for the three months
ended May 2, 1998, from $75.9 million in the comparable prior year period. The
increase was due to sales increases in the Plantation Patterns product line and,
the new Garden Accessories and Tubular product lines.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross Profit for the three months ended May 2, 1998, increased $3.0 million to
$29.0 million from $26.0 million in the comparable prior year period. The
increase in margins is due primarily to higher sales volume offset by some start
up costs associated with the new West Coast production facilities, and to a
lesser extent, the retrofitting of the previously idle Birmingham, Alabama
facility, used to produce the new tubular product line.

SELLING EXPENSE

Selling Expense, which includes commissions, advertising and promotional
expenses remained even with the prior year at $3.2 million for the three months
ended May 2, 1998. Higher commissions were offset by lower expenditures for
advertising, travel, and entertainment.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

General and Administrative Expense, which includes corporate salaries, employee
benefits and professional fees decreased $.7 million to $2.0 million for the
three months ended May 2, 1998, from $2.7 million in the comparable prior year
period.
The decrease was due primarily to a lower accrual for bonus payments in 1998.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest Expense, which includes factor fees, decreased by $.2 million to $1.6
million for the three months ended May 2, 1998, from $1.8 million in the
comparable prior year period due to an overall lower interest rate, resulting
from the Company's new credit facility.

HISTORICAL AND PRO FORMA PROVISIONS FOR INCOME TAXES

Prior to November 25, 1997, the Company elected to be taxed as an S Corporation
and, as a result, the periods prior to November 25, 1997 do not reflect
historical income tax provisions. On November 25, 1997, the Company terminated
its S Corporation election in connection with its Initial Public Offering and
became a taxable C Corporation. Additionally, the Company has allocated its
income for the three months, ended May 2, 1998, between the nontaxable S
Corporation and the taxable C Corporation based on the number of days in the 12
month period ended May 2, 1998, in which the Company was an S Corporation and C
Corporation respectively. The effect of the allocation was that a portion of the
income


                                       8
<PAGE>   9

for the three months ended May 2, 1998 was attributable to the C Corporation
with the remainder being attributable to the S Corporation. The income
attributable to the C Corporation resulted in a historical tax provision of
$3,550,000 for the three months ended May 2, 1998. The pro forma provision of
the three months ended May 3, 1997 and May 2, 1998, gives effect to the
application of incremental income taxes that would have been reported had the
Company's income been attributable to the C Corporation for the entire three
month period. The historical and pro forma income provision combined reflect an
overall effective tax rate of 37% in both 1998 and 1997.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 2, 1998 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 3, 1997



NET SALES

Net Sales increased $7.6 million or 6.9% to $117.3 from $109.7 million in the
comparable prior year period. The increase was due to higher sales of the Garden
Accessories and Plantation Patterns product lines.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross Profit for the nine months ended May 2, 1998 increased $2.3 million to
$38.0 from $35.7 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase in
margins is due primarily to higher sales volume offset by start-up costs
associated with the new West Coast production facilities and to a lesser extent
the retrofitting of the previously idle Birmingham, Alabama facility, used to
produce the new tubular product line.

SELLING EXPENSE

Selling Expense increased $.1 million to $5.8 million for the nine month period,
ended May 2, 1998, from $5.7 million in the comparable prior year period due
primarily to higher commission expense on higher sales volume.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

General and Administrative Expense increased $.8 million to $5.5 million for the
nine month period, ended May 2, 1998, from $4.7 million in the comparable prior
year period. The prior year included a favorable legal settlement in the amount
of $.7 million. Increases in professional fees, and the write-off of loan costs
related to debt that was replaced with a new credit facility, offset by a lower
bonus accrual also contributed to the increase.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest Expense decreased by $1.0 million to $3.0 million for the nine months
ended May 2, 1998 from $4.0 million in the comparable prior year period, due to
lower debt levels and an overall lower interest rate resulting from the
Company's new credit facility.

HISTORICAL AND PRO FORMA PROVISIONS FOR INCOME TAXES

Prior to November 25, 1997, the Company elected to be taxed as an S Corporation
and, as a result, the periods prior to November 25, 1997 do not reflect
historical income tax provisions. On November 25, 1997, the Company terminated
its S Corporation election in connection with its Initial Public Offering and
became a taxable C Corporation. In connection with this termination, the Company
recorded deferred tax assets and a credit income tax provision in the amount of
$3,200,000. Additionally, the Company has


                                       10
<PAGE>   11

allocated its income for the nine months, ended May 2, 1998, between the
nontaxable S Corporation and the taxable C Corporation based on the number of
days in the 12 month period ended May 2, 1998, in which the Company was an S
Corporation and C Corporation respectively. The effect on the allocation was
that a portion of the income for the nine months ended May 2, 1998 was
attributable to the C Corporation with the remainder being attributable to the S
Corporation. The income attributable to the C Corporation resulted in a
historical tax provision of $4,720,000 for the nine months ended May 2, 1998,
which was partially offset by the recording of net deferred tax assets of
$3,200,000. The pro forma provision of the nine months ended May 3, 1997 and May
2,1998, gives effect to the application of incremental income taxes that would
have been reported had the Company's income been attributable for the C
Corporation of the entire nine month period. The historical and pro forma income
provision combined reflect and overall effective tax rate of 37% in both 1998
and 1997, before considering the effect of the one time credit income tax
provision of $3,200,000 in 1998 related to the initial recording of net deferred
tax assets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically financed its operations and growth through seasonal
borrowings under its bank line of credit, from internally generated funds, and
from other term debt. The Company's primary liquidity requirements are for
capital expenditures, working capital and debt service.

The Company's operating activities in the nine month period ended May 2, 1998,
used $41.6 million in cash. Cash used by operating activities included an
increase in accounts receivable and due from factor of $61.9 million and
inventory of $21.7 million, which was partially funded, by an increase of $12.8
million in accounts payable. The inventory build-up is necessary to meet the
peak selling season demand, which occurs in the later part of the quarter ended
April, and continues through June. The increase in accounts receivable reflects
the seasonal changes in sales volume. The capital expenditures for the nine
months totaled $24.3 million, and were funded partially by proceeds from the
initial public offering and the issuance of term debt. The capital expenditures
are part of the Company's plan to increase its manufacturing and product
distribution capacity and include production and distribution facilities in the
southwestern United States, a manufacturing facility in Mexico, and additional
manufacturing and distribution capacity in Alabama.

Currently, the Company maintains a $90 million revolving line of credit and a
maximum $36.4 million term debt facility with a consortium of lenders led by
NationsBank, N.A. ("NationsBank"). As a result of the seasonal nature of the
Company's business, the Company utilizes the revolving credit facility to build
up inventory levels during the first half of the Company's fiscal year. The
revolving credit facility is subject to certain borrowing base limitations,
which are related primarily to accounts receivable and inventory balances.

As of May 2, 1998, the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility
amounted to $53.2 million, and $28.2 million was available to be borrowed at May
2, 1998, based upon the borrowing base. In November 1997, the Industrial
Development Authority of the County of Yuma, Arizona, issued $6.0 million
principal amount of Industrial Development Revenue Bonds, Series 1997. The
proceeds from which have been loaned to the Company for use in connection with
the development of the Company's manufacturing and distribution facilities in
Yuma County, Arizona.

The Company's debt agreements contain, among other things, certain restrictions
relating to net worth, capital expenditures, current ratio and debt service
ratio. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at May 2, 1998.

                                       11

<PAGE>   12

The Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with the Company's
unused borrowing capacity under the credit facilities and proceeds from the
Company's Initial Public Offering, will be sufficient to fund the Company's debt
service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs through the
maturity date of the credit facilities.
