             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
          (ALL AMOUNTS EXPRESSED IN THOUSANDS, OR AS OTHERWISE NOTED)
                                        

NOTE 1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS

  The interim financial statements presented herein include the accounts of
Scovill Holdings Inc. ("Holdings") and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together
with Holdings, the "Company") as of March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and for
the three months ended March 31, 1998, and of Predecessor -- KSCO (defined 
below) for the three months ended March 31, 1997.

  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments
which are in the opinion of the Company necessary for a fair statement of the
results of the interim periods.  The operating results for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 are not indicative of the results that would be
obtained for the entire fiscal year or any other interim period.  Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been omitted from these consolidated financial statements pursuant to the
applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.  These financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

  Scovill Acquisition Inc. ("SAI") and Holdings, both Delaware corporations,
were formed by Saratoga Partners III L.P. in 1997 to effect the acquisition of
Scovill Fasteners Inc., a Delaware Corporation ("Fasteners").  Pursuant to a
Stock Purchase Agreement, SAI, then a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings,
purchased all of the capital stock of KSCO Acquisition Corporation ("KSCO" or
"Predecessor-KSCO") on November 26, 1997 for a purchase price of approximately
$168.8 million less the amount of indebtedness of the Company existing
immediately prior to closing of the acquisition (including indebtedness that was
not repaid in connection with the transactions).  Concurrently with the
acquisition, SAI merged with and into KSCO, and KSCO merged with and into
Fasteners, with Fasteners surviving the mergers.  As a result, Fasteners is
currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings.  The purchase of KSCO capital
stock by SAI and the mergers of SAI and KSCO into Fasteners are together
referred to as the "Saratoga Acquisition."  The effect of such changes
significantly impairs the comparability of the results of operations of the
Company and the Predecessor-KSCO.

In connection with the Saratoga Acquisition, the Company issued $100 million of
11.25% Senior Notes due 2007  (the "Notes"), pursuant to an Indenture, dated
November 26, 1997. The proceeds of the Notes offering were used to finance, in
part, the purchase by SAI of all of the capital stock of KSCO which then owned
all of the capital stock of the Company.  Following the mergers described above,
the Notes became obligations of Fasteners. In connection with the Saratoga
Acquisition, Fasteners entered into a new senior secured credit facility (the
"New Credit Facility"), consisting of a $28.0 million term loan (the "Term
Loan") and a $25.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit
Facility").

NOTE 3.    PREFERRED STOCK REDEMPTION

In February 1998, the Company sold additional shares of common stock for
approximately $10.3 million.  The proceeds were used to redeem the outstanding
redeemable exchangeable preferred stock and warrants.

NOTE 4.   NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"), Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information" ("SFAS 131"), and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits -
an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, and 106" ("SFAS 132), effective
January 1, 1998.  SFAS 130 establishes standards to measure all changes in
equity that result from transactions and other economic events other than
transactions with owners.  Comprehensive income is the total of net income and
all other nonowner changes in equity.  SFAS 131 introduces a new segment
reporting model called the "management approach."  The management approach is
based on the manner in which management organizes segments within a company for
making operating decisions and assessing performance.  The management approach
replaces the notion of industry and geographic segments.  SFAS 132 revises
disclosures about pension and other postretirement benefit plans, yet it does
not change the measurement or recognition of those plans.  The disclosures
relative to SFAS 130, 131 and 132 do not significantly affect the Company's
current disclosures and will be presented in the Company's 1998 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following "Safe Harbor Statement" is made pursuant to the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain of the statements contained in
the body of this Report are forward-looking statements (rather than historical
facts) that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking
statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on management's current
plans and expectations and are subject to a number of uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such
statements. Such uncertainties and risks include, but are not limited to: the
highly leveraged nature of the Company, its substantial debt service
requirements and the substantial operating and financing restrictions on the
Company by the terms of the New Credit Facility, the Indenture, and the other
agreements governing the Company's indebtedness; the risks and uncertainties
inherent in doing business abroad, the volatility of the price of raw materials;
increasing domestic and foreign competition; increasingly complex and stringent
environmental laws and regulations; delays or difficulties associated with
systems conversion and Year 2000 compliance; and general economic conditions.
The preceding list of uncertainties, however, is not intended to be exhaustive,
and should be read in conjunction with other cautionary statements in the
Company's publicly-filed reports and its final Form S-1 Registration Statement,
dated December 24, 1997 (Commission File No. 333-43195).

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 (COMPANY) COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED
MARCH 31, 1997 (PREDECESSOR-KSCO)

Net Sales  Net sales increased $0.4 million, or 1.7% from $24.2 million to $24.6
million. Such increase is primarily a result of increased sales in Asian markets
and domestic apparel markets.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
Gross Profit  Gross profit decreased $0.4 million, or 6.5% from $6.9 million to
$6.5 million, of which $0.3 million is attributed to a lower sales mix in
Scovill-Europe.


Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG&A")  SG&A remained consistent
at $4.1 million and was 16.6% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 1998
compared to 16.9% for the three months ended March 31, 1997.

Operating Income  Operating income decreased $0.7 million primarily as a result
of a decrease in gross profit of $0.4, in addition to an increase in
amortization expense of $0.2 million as a result of increased goodwill in
connection with the Saratoga Acquisition.

Interest Expense  Interest expense increased by $2.9 million as a result of the
increase in debt from the Saratoga Acquisition.

Income Tax Provision (Benefit)  The income tax benefit was $0.7 million in the
three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to a provision of $0.4 million in the
three months ended March 31, 1997.

Net Income (Loss)  The net loss available to common stockholders was $1.7
million in the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to net income of $0.7
million in the three months ended March 31, 1997 attributable to the factors
discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


  Historically, the Company derived its cash from funds generated by operations
and from third-party financings.   As of March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997,
$2.5 million and $0 borrowings were outstanding under the Revolving Credit
Facility. In December 1997, the Company issued $100 million of Notes, the
proceeds of which were used to finance, in part, the purchase by SAI of all of
the capital stock of KSCO which then owned all of the capital stock of the
Company. The Company's liquidity requirements consist primarily of scheduled
payments of principal and interest on its indebtedness, working capital needs
and capital expenditures. The Company believes that its operating cash flow,
together with borrowings under the New Credit Facility, will be sufficient to
meet its operating expenses and capital requirements, and its debt service
requirements over the next twelve months and beyond.

 Cash Flows

  Net cash used in the Company's operating activities was $2.1 million for the
first three months of 1998. Principal working capital changes included increases
of $5.3 million and $0.3 million in accounts receivable and inventories,
respectively, and a net increase of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of
$1.4 million. The Company's cash used in investing activities during the first
three months of 1998 was $1.8 million for capital expenditures.  Net cash
provided by financing activities was $2.3 million, of which $2.5 million
represents borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

  The Indenture and the New Credit Facility place significant restrictions on
the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or
repurchase stock or make other distributions, create liens, make certain
investments, sell assets, or enter into mergers or consolidations.

Item 2.    Changes in Securities and the Use of Proceeds

           In February 1998, Holdings sold an additional 1,000,000 shares of
each of common stock and Series B Preferred Stock for approximately $10.3
million, which sale was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933 because of the private nature of the transaction and the
financial sophistication of the purchaser involved. The proceeds from the sale
were used to redeem the outstanding Series A Cumulative Redeemable Exchangeable
Preferred Stock and Warrants.
