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. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the results for the periods presented
have been included. 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 audited consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 1998 Annual
Report.

Due to the seasonal nature of BMHC's business, the condensed consolidated
results of operations and resulting cash flows for the periods presented are not
necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the fiscal
year.

4.  AQCUISITIONS

       In the first quarter of 1999, the Company completed one acquisition
       consisting of a value-added facility located in Colorado that was
       consolidated into an existing facility. The total consideration given was
       approximately $350,000.


5.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


      On May 3, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of a 49% interest in
      Knipp Brothers Industries, LLC, a framing company with operations in
      Phoenix and Tuscon, Arizona, and Las Vegas, Nevada. The total
      consideration given was $28 million consisting of $25.8 million in cash
      and $2.2 million from various assets of our Phoenix operation. BMHC has
      the right to acquire the remaining 51% interest in Knipp Brothers. Larry
      Knipp has a corresponding right to require BMHC to purchase Knipp Brothers
      51% after five years.

      On March 31, 1999, BMHC renegotiated its revolving credit agreement with
      Wells Fargo Bank. The amendment to the amended and restated credit
      agreement was effective March 31, 1999. The amendment extended the period
      of availability for the $100 million revolver from March 31, 1999 to
      August 31, 1999 and changed the rates at which interest and fees are
      charged and the minimum net worth required. Borrowings under the agreement
      now bear interest at prime plus 0% to 1.25%, or LIBOR plus 1.00% to 2.25%.
      A fee of .25% to .50% per annum is charged on the unused portion of the
      loan commitement. After August 31, 1999, the borrowing capacity will
      return to $70 million until the revolving credit agreement's expiration.

      On May 7, 1999, BMHC signed a Joinder Agreement with Bank of America to
      become an Additional Bank providing an additional $25 million pursuant to
      the above mentioned amendment to the revolving credit agreement. Bank of
      America agreed to be bound by the revolving credit agreement as if it had
      been an original party to the revolving credit agreement.

FIRST QUARTER OF 1999 COMPARED TO THE FIRST QUARTER OF 1998

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 increased 17.4% to a record
$215.6 million from $183.6 million in the same period one year ago. The increase
resulted primarily from same-store sales (facilities that operated for at least
two months in both the first quarter of 1998 and the first quarter of 1999)
growth of 12.0%, as well as a 7.5% increase from acquisitons made during the
past year. Adjusting for product price inflation (primarily commodity wood
product prices) of approximately 3.4%, real same-store sales were 8.6% ahead of
the year-ago quarter.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 25.1% in the first quarter of
1999 from 23.9% in the first quarter of 1998, primarily as a result of on- going
efforts by the Company to improve margins through its increased focus on
value-added products, such as roof and floor trusses, pre-hung doors, millwork,
and pre-assembled windows.

                                       10

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, were $48.0 million in the
first quarter of 1999 as compared to $40.4 million in 1998, and increased as a
percentage of net sales from 22.0% in 1998 to 22.2% in 1999. The Company
attributes this partially to increases in value-added sales that carry higher
SG&A expenses, higher sales which carry higher commissions and incentives, and
the cost of integrating new operating locations that were not included in the
comparable prior year period.

Interest expense of $2.5 million in the first quarter of 1999 was approximately
the same as the comparable prior year period.

Income taxes were provided at estimated annual effective tax rates of 38.5% and
39.5% for the periods ended March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998, respectively.

As a result of the foregoing factors, net income increased by $1.7 million or
196.6% to $2.5 million or 1.2% of net sales in the first quarter of 1999, as
compared to $850,000, or 0.5% of net sales, in the first quarter of 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1999 the Company had $128.3 million of long-term debt outstanding,
consisting of $70.4 million of term borrowings under fixed rate notes, and $57.9
million of variable rate debt under the revolving credit agreement.

In the first three months of 1999, the Company used $5.0 million of cash in
operating activities. Working capital increased from $116.7 million at December
31, 1998 to $128.4 million at March 31, 1999, due primarily to seasonality and
favorable economic conditions.

Based on its ability to generate cash from operations and the available
borrowing capacity at March 31, 1999 of $42.1 million under the revolving credit
agreement (availability of which is subject to the satisfaction of


                                       11

certain customary borrowing conditions), the Company believes it will have
sufficient funds to meet its currently anticipated requirements.

YEAR 2000 SYSTEM ISSUE

As is the case with most other companies, the Year 2000 computer problem creates
risks for BMHC. However, the Company believes that the risks of the Year 2000
computer problem are not as severe for the building materials industry as
compared to other more technology dependent industries, because the building
materials industry, in general, and the Company and its professional contractor
customers, in particular, are not as heavily dependent upon computerized
systems. Except for millwork and truss operations, the Company is primarily a
distributor of building materials to its customers and is dependent upon rail
and truck transportation for timely receipt and delivery of inventory. The
Company could be affected if its transportation suppliers are materially and
adversely affected by Year 2000 related issues.

The following discussion summarizes management's present analyses and proposed
plans with respect to the anticipated material impacts of the Year 2000 computer
problem on the Company's primary operations. The discussion focuses on "mission
critical" systems, which management believes are important to the Company's day
to day functional operations. The Year 2000 problem may also impact systems that
are not mission critical or information technology related. These systems, which
may include telephone, electronic mail, elevators, heating and air conditioning
equipment, and security will be tested and any problems addressed on a
case-by-case basis, but none are expected to be material to the Company's
results of operations or financial condition. It is expected that assessment,
remediation and contingency planning activities will be on-going throughout 1999
with the goal of appropriately resolving all significant internal systems and
third party issues.

State of Readiness

BMHC has evaluated the impact of the Year 2000 computer problem on its mission
critical systems. The mission critical systems that have been identified are:

- -        retail system software used in each of the operations for sales
         transactions, inventory and in-store accounting


                                       12
<PAGE>

     -        corporate financial and accounting system

     -        millwork configuration and order entry system

     -        truss production and engineering system

     -        payroll system, which is operated by a third party vendor


     Each of the five mission critical systems is in the process of becoming
     Year 2000 compliant, or management is verifying with the original vendor
     that the existing systems are Year 2000 compliant. The current status of
     the readiness effort with respect to the five mission critical systems is
     as follows:

     The retail system is being upgraded in a two-step process that involves
     hardware and operating system improvements that were originally scheduled
     for 1998. The first phase of the process has been successfully completed.
     The final phase of the upgrade process is well underway, and the process is
     well understood. The final software upgrade for Year 2000 compliance, as
     warranteed by the vendor, has been received and is currently being tested
     and is expected to be fully implemented in the summer of 1999.
     The remainder of the year will be used to thoroughly test the system.

     The corporate financial and accounting system has been upgraded to the Year
     2000 compliant version as warranteed by the vendor. This upgrade was
     successfully completed in December 1998, and the system is fully compliant.
     Extensive testing to verify the vendor's level of compliance will occur in
     the middle of 1999.

     It has been determined that the current millwork software will not meet the
     long term needs of the Company, and a decision to replace this software
     package has been made. However, due to the complexity of implementing a new
     system, it has also been decided to bring the current system to a Year 2000
     compliant state. This project will be performed by the original vendor of
     the software. The Year 2000 compliant version of the current software is
     scheduled for delivery in the summer of 1999. Additionally, a replacement
     software package has been identified that is warranteed by the vendor as
     Year 2000 compliant. The new system is scheduled to come on-line in


                                       13
<PAGE>

     selected sites in July 1999. In both cases, testing of the software will
     occur during the latter half of 1999.

     The vendors for the truss production system and outsourced payroll system
     have advised the Company that the systems are currently Year 2000
     compliant. Verification and testing of these systems for compliance is
     currently underway, and will be completed during the middle of 1999.

     Cost to Address Year 2000 Issues

     Much of the cost to address Year 2000 issues was budgeted and scheduled as
     part of routine maintenance of the Company's systems. Since these costs
     were identified and planned for in the budget cycle, the financial impact
     on the Company is not expected to be material in any one year. However, it
     is anticipated that the total cost of becoming Year 2000 compliant for all
     systems currently in use by the Company will be approximately $1.5 million.
     To date approximately $0.7 million has been spent in remediation of Year
     2000 issues. These costs include consulting, hardware upgrades and employee
     time.

Risks of Year 2000 Issues for BMHC

Even in a most likely worst case scenario for BMHC, the risks due to failure to
accomplish Year 2000 remediations are not expected to have a material adverse
effect on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company. Each
of the Company's operating locations currently has procedures in place to deal
with the failure of the retail system. In this instance, the increased amount of
hand processing of accounting and inventory tracking would result in higher
overtime and payroll expense. However, it is not anticipated that there will be
a material impact on the ability of the Company to deliver products to
customers. In order to reduce the risks of delays in transportation of inventory
either to the Company or its customers, the Company intends to monitor Year 2000
compliance by its transportation suppliers and will consider a build-up of
certain inventories in the fourth quarter of 1999, if appropriate. The Company
does not expect that the cost of a short-term increase in its inventory levels
to reduce Year 2000 risks will be material to the Company's financial condition
or operating results.


                                       14
<PAGE>

Since each of the systems independently perform specified functions that are
well understood by staff personnel in the operating locations and at the
corporate office, complete failure of all of the systems could be worked around
to perform the necessary functions of the systems. It is extremely unlikely that
this would occur due to the independent nature of the systems architecture
employed at BMHC. However, steps to avoid this possibility are being taken.

Contingency Plans

The Company believes that temporary solutions to most failures are readily and
economically available. For example, the dates on the systems could be set to
dates prior to 2000 that have the same days of the week, such as the year 1972.
This would involve a data conversion and hand correcting of dates on printed
documents, but could be accomplished in just a few days. Also, personal
computers with spreadsheets could be used to maintain accounting and inventory
information as well as corporate financial data. Millwork configuration is
unaffected by the date change, but dates would need to be changed for order
tracking if the system were not capable of dealing with dates after December 31,
1999. Processing of payroll could be done with personal computers. Truss
engineering would need validation by the plate manufacturer to ensure structural
integrity. Finally, the Company can increase inventory levels to mitigate risks
of Year 2000 transportation problems. All of these plans could be put in place
in a short time frame, and would mitigate nearly all the material risks to the
Company. Further evaluation of contingency plans will be made, if necessary, as
test results from the various systems become available.

Summary

BMHC has proactively identified and is in the process of correcting the Year
2000 issues that it believes could have a material impact on the Company. It is
anticipated that all systems will be capable of functioning in a normal fashion
upon the change of the millennium. It is not anticipated that BMHC will suffer
any loss of revenue due to Year 2000 issues. The Company is also


                                       15
<PAGE>

in the process of requesting from all of its significant vendors a statement
regarding their preparations for the Year 2000 date change. Since the Year 2000
issue was anticipated in the budget cycle over the last two years, no material
impact is expected on the results of operations or cash flows in any period or
on the overall financial condition of the Company. Also, no projects were
canceled or delayed as a result of Year 2000 remediation activities

         2. AMENDMENTS TO CREDIT AGREEMENT. Subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in PARAGRAPH 5 below, the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended as follows:

                           (a) PARAGRAPH 2.02 is hereby amended as follows:

                           (i) SUBPARAGRAPH 2.02(d)(i) is hereby amended to
         substitute "Commitment On and After Scheduled Reduction Date" for
         "Proportionate Share On and After Scheduled Reduction Date."

                           (ii) A new SUBPARAGRAPH 2.02(e) is hereby added as
         follows:

                           "(e) ADMISSION OF ADDITIONAL BANKS. At the request of
         Borrower, one or more banks or financial institutions may become
         parties to this Agreement as Banks (each an "ADDITIONAL BANK") with
         Commitments which do not exceed Twenty-Five Million Dollars
         ($25,000,000) in the aggregate; PROVIDED, that (i) Agent and the
         Required Banks consent to each Additional Bank becoming a party to this
         Agreement and (ii) each Additional Bank agrees to be bound by this
         Agreement as it would have been if it had been an original Bank party
         hereto and agrees to perform in accordance with their terms all of the
         obligations which are required under the Credit Documents to be
         performed by it as a Bank. On the date any Additional Bank becomes a
         party to this Agreement, the Total Commitment shall be increased by the
         Commitment of such Additional Bank and the Proportionate Shares of the
         other Banks shall be ratably reduced. If on the date any Additional
         Bank becomes a party to this Agreement any other Bank has Revolving
         Loans and Drawing Payments outstanding which are greater than such
         other Bank's Proportionate Share of all Revolving Loans and Drawing
         Payments outstanding on such date, such other Bank shall assign to such
         Additional Bank and such Additional Bank shall assume and pay to such
         other Bank on such date the principal amount by which such other Bank's
         Revolving Loans and Drawing Payments are greater than its Proportionate
         Share of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans and
         Drawing Payments outstanding on such date and accrued interest on the
         amount of such Revolving Loans and Drawing Payments assigned and
         assumed shall be allocated between such other Bank and such Additional
         Bank as of the date such payment was made by such Additional Bank."

                           (b) SUBPARAGRAPH 5.01(i) is hereby amended to read in
         full as follows:

                           "(i) NET WORTH. Borrower will maintain, at all times,
         a Net Worth in an amount of not less than the sum of (i) 80% of
         $180,250,000 (Borrower's Net Worth as of December 31, 1998) PLUS (ii)
         seventy-five percent (75%) of the net cash proceeds of the issuance of
         all capital stock of Borrower and all capital contributions from Parent
         (whether or not stock is issued in connection with such contribution)
         from and after December 31, 1998 through and including the date
         immediately preceding the date on which such Net Worth is to be
         determined, PLUS (iii) fifty percent (50%) of the cumulative Net
         Incomes for all fiscal quarters from and after December 31, 1998
         through and including the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date
         on which such Net Worth is to be determined; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in
         calculating any amount under the 

                                       2
<PAGE>

         preceding CLAUSE (III), any fiscal quarter for which Net Income was
         negative shall be excluded."

                           (c) PARAGRAPH 8.05 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
         amended as follows:

                  (i) The second and third sentences of SUBPARAGRAPH 8.05(c) are
         hereby amended in their entirety as follows:

         "Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of each
         Assignment and Assumption Agreement, from and after the Assignment
         Effective Date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption
         Agreement, (A) each Assignee Bank thereunder shall be a Bank hereunder
         with a Commitment as set forth on ATTACHMENT 1 TO SUCH ASSIGNMENT AND
         ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT and shall have the rights, duties and obligations
         of such a Bank under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and
         (B) the Assignor Bank thereunder shall be a Bank with a Commitment as
         set forth on ATTACHMENT 1 TO SUCH ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT,
         or, if the Commitment of the Assignor Bank has been reduced to $0, the
         Assignor Bank shall cease to be a Bank; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that each
         Assignor Bank shall nevertheless be entitled to the benefits of any
         provision of this Agreement which by its terms survives termination of
         this Agreement with respect to matters occurring before the Assignment
         Effective Date. Each Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be
         deemed to amend SCHEDULE I to the extent, and only to the extent,
         necessary to reflect the addition of each Assignee Bank, the deletion
         of each Assignor Bank which reduces its Commitment to $0 and the
         resulting adjustment of Commitments arising from the purchase by each
         Assignee Bank of all or a portion of the rights and obligation of an
         Assignor Bank under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents."

                  (ii) SUBPARAGRAPH 8.05(d) is hereby amended to add "and the
         Commitments" after "the Proportionate Shares" where such phrase appears
         in the first sentence.

                  (iii) SUBPARAGRAPH 8.05(e) is hereby amended to add "and
         Commitments" after "Proportionate Shares" where such phrase appears in
         the second sentence.

                  (d) SCHEDULE I to the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting the columns opposite each Bank's name entitled "Proportionate Share
Before Scheduled Reduction Date" and "Proportionate Share On and After Scheduled
Reduction Date" and substituting the following:

         corresponding to such EBITDA Ratio as set forth above shall apply from

                                JOINDER AGREEMENT

         THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT (this "AGREEMENT"), dated as of May 7, 1999, is
executed by BANK OF AMERICA NATIONAL TRUST AND SAVINGS ASSOCIATION, a national
banking association ("ADDITIONAL BANK"), in favor of the parties to the Credit
Agreement referred to in RECITAL A below.

                                    RECITALS

         A. Pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement effective
as of September 30, 1998 and amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated as of
March 31, 1999 (as further amended, supplemented or restated from time to time,
the "CREDIT AGREEMENT"), among BMC West Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("BORROWER"), the financial institutions from time to time parties thereto
(collectively, the "BANKS"), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as
agent for the Banks (in such capacity, "AGENT"), the Banks have agreed to extend
certain credit facilities to Borrower upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth therein.

         B. Additional Bank will become a party to the Credit Agreement with
certain rights and obligations thereunder and under the other Credit Documents
upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged, Additional Bank hereby agrees as follows:

         1. DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this
Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

         2. AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY CREDIT AGREEMENT. Effective on the
Effective Date (as defined in SECTION 3 below), Additional Bank hereby (a)
accepts and assumes all rights and obligations under the Credit Documents of a
Bank with the Commitment set forth on ATTACHMENT 1 hereto, including the portion
of Revolving Loans and participations in the Letters of Credit outstanding on
the Effective Date and commitments to purchase participations in Letters of
Credit that are attributable to such Commitment (the "ASSUMED RIGHTS AND
Obligations"), (b) agrees to be bound by the Credit Agreement as it would have
been if it had been an original Bank party thereto, and (c) agrees to perform in
accordance with their terms all of the obligations which are required under the
Credit Documents to be performed by it as a Bank. Additional Bank appoints and
authorizes Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise
such powers under the Credit Documents as are delegated to Agent by the terms
thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

         3. EFFECTIVENESS. Subject to receipt by Agent of the payments described
in SECTION 4, this Agreement shall become effective on May 7, 1999 (the
"EFFECTIVE DATE").

         4. PAYMENTS ON EFFECTIVE DATE. In consideration of the Assumed Rights
and Obligations, on the Effective Date Additional Bank shall pay to Agent for
distribution to each other Bank: (a) the principal amount of the Revolving Loans
made by such other Bank pursuant to the Credit Agreement and outstanding on the
Effective Date that are greater than such other 

<PAGE>

Bank's Proportionate Share of all Revolving Loans as determined on the Effective
Date, and (b) the amount of all Drawing Payments for which such other Bank has
reimbursed Issuing Bank that are outstanding on the Effective Date and are
greater than such other Bank's Proportionate Share of all Drawing Payments as
determined on the Effective Date.

         5. ALLOCATION AND PAYMENT OF INTEREST AND FEES. Agent shall pay to
Additional Bank all interest, commitment fees and other amounts that are paid by
or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to the Credit Documents and are attributable
to the Assumed Rights and Obligations, that accrue on and after the Effective
Date.

         6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Additional Bank represents and
warrants to Agent and the other Banks as follows:

                  (a) It has full power and authority, and has taken all action
         necessary, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to fulfill its
         obligations under, and to consummate the transactions contemplated by,
         this Agreement.

                  (b) The making and performance of this Agreement and all
         documents required to be executed and delivered by it hereunder do not
         and will not violate any law or regulation applicable to it.

                  (c) This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it
         and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in
         accordance with its terms.

                  (d) All approvals, authorizations or other actions by, or
         filings with, any governmental authority necessary for the validity or
         enforceability of its obligations under this Agreement have been made
         or obtained.

                  (e) Additional Bank has made and shall continue to make its
         own independent investigation of the financial condition, affairs and
         creditworthiness of Borrower and any other Person obligated under the
         Credit Documents (collectively, "CREDIT PARTIES"), and the value of any
         collateral now or hereafter securing any of the obligations,
         indebtedness, liabilities or undertakings under the Credit Documents
         ("COLLATERAL"), in connection with its assumption of the Assumed Rights
         and Obligations.

                  (f) Additional Bank has received a copy of the Credit
         Documents and such other documents, financial statements and
         information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit

         7. NO RESPONSIBILITY BY AGENT OR OTHER BANKS. Neither Agent nor any
other Bank makes any representation or warranty or assumes any responsibility to

                  (a) the execution (by any party other than such party),
         effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or
         sufficiency of the Credit Documents or for any representations,
         warranties, recitals or statements made in the Credit Documents or in
         any financial or other written or oral statement, instrument, report,

         contemplated thereby;

                  (b) the performance or observance of any of the terms,
         conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the
         Credit Documents or as to the existence or possible existence of any
         Default or Event of Default under the Credit Documents, but this shall
         not relieve Agent of any obligation under the Credit Agreement to
         deliver notice of such Default or Event of Default; or

                  (c) the accuracy or completeness of any information provided
         to Additional Bank, whether by such party or by or on behalf of any
