PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been 
prepared by Building Materials Holding Corporation ("BMHC" or the 
"Company")on a consolidated basis, without audit, pursuant to the rules and 
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  BMHC was formed on 
September 23, 1997 in a holding company reorganization in which BMC West 
Corporation, the former registrant, became a wholly owned subsidiary of BMHC. 
This new structure was adopted to centralize certain administrative 
functions as the Company expands its participation in the consolidation of 
the contractor focused building materials distribution industry.  All 
references to the "Company" will mean BMHC on a consolidated basis if 
referring to periods after September 23, 1997, or BMC West Corporation for 
all preceding periods. 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the 
results for the periods presented have been included therein in management's 
discussion and analysis thereof.  The adjustments made were of a normal, 
recurring nature.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally 
included in the consolidated financial statements have been condensed or 
omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate 
to make the information presented not misleading.  It is recommended that 
these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with 
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 1997 
Annual Report.

The condensed consolidated results of operations for the periods presented 
are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the 
fiscal year.

4.   REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     During first quarter 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME, which
     establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and
     its components in a full set of financial statements.  The Company
     currently has no components of comprehensive income.



5.   NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

     On April 3, 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position 98-5, REPORTING ON
     THE COSTS OF START-UP ACTIVITIES.  This Statement of Position provides
     guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and organization
     costs.  It requires costs of start-up activities and organization costs to
     be expensed as incurred.  The Company plans to adopt this Statement in the
     first quarter of 1999 and does not anticipate that it will have a material
     impact on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

</TABLE>

FIRST QUARTER OF 1998 COMPARED TO THE FIRST QUARTER OF 1997

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1998 were $183.6 million up 25%
from the first quarter of 1997 when sales were $146.8 million.  The increase in
net sales resulted from 1997 acquisitions and a 12.5% increase from the first
quarter of 1997 in sales at facilities that operated for at least two months in
both the first quarter of 1997 and the first quarter of 1998 ("same-store
sales").  Same-store sales benefited from good weather in many markets and
robust building permit activity.  Sales increased despite overall price
deflation of 3.6%, primarily attributable to commodity wood product prices. 
Adjusting for the price deflation, real same-store sales were approximately
16.1% ahead of the year-ago quarter.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 23.9% in the first quarter of
1998 from 23.4% in the first quarter of 1997, primarily as a result of on going
efforts by the Company to improve margins through its increased focus on 

                                      10
<PAGE>

value-added products, such as roof trusses, pre-hung doors and pre-assembled 
windows.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, were $40.4 million in the
first quarter of 1998 as compared to $31.9 million in 1997, and increased as a
percentage of net sales from 21.7% in 1997 to 22.0% in 1998.  The Company
attributes this partially to increases in value-added sales that carry higher
SG&A expenses and the continuing effort in integrating new operating locations
that were not included in the comparable period. 

Interest expense of $2.5 million in the first quarter of 1998 increased from
$2.1 million in the same period of 1997, primarily due to increased borrowings
under the Company's revolving line of credit after the acquisitions made in the
second half of 1997.

Income taxes were provided at estimated annual effective tax rates of 39.5% for
the periods ended March 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997.

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income increased by $394,000 or 86.4%
to $850,000, or .5% of net sales in the first quarter of 1998, as compared to
$456,000, or 0.3% of net sales, in the first quarter of 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1998 the Company had $113.7 million of long-term debt outstanding,
consisting of $79.8 million of term borrowings under fixed rate notes, and $33.9
million of variable rate debt under the revolving credit agreement.

In the first three months of 1998, the Company generated $3.3 million of cash
from operating activities.  Working capital decreased from $118.6 million at
December 31, 1997 to $117.7 million at March 31, 1998, due primarily to the
seasonality in the Company's accounts receivable, inventory and accounts
payable.

                                      11
<PAGE>

Based on its ability to generate cash from operations and the available 
borrowing capacity at March 31, 1998 of $36.1 million under the revolving 
credit agreement (availability of which is subject to the satisfaction of 
certain customary borrowing conditions), the Company believes it will have 
sufficient funds to meet its currently anticipated requirements.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
          The Company is involved in litigation and administrative proceedings
          primarily arising in the normal course of its business.  In the 
          opinion of management, the Company's recovery, if any, or the 
          Company's liability, if any, under any pending litigation or 
          administrative proceedings would not materially affect its financial 
          condition or results of operations.
