A.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECAPITALIZATION

Basic of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Werner
Holding Co. (PA), Inc., ("Holding") include its accounts and the accounts of its
wholly-owned subsidiary Werner Holding Co. (DE), Inc. ("Issuer") and its wholly-
owned subsidiaries. Holding has no substantial operations or assets, other than
its investment in the Issuer. The consolidated financial condition and results
of operations of Holding are substantially the same as those of the Issuer.
Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The unaudited
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair financial presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1998. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Registration Statement
(File No. 333-46607) on Form S-4 as amended and filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission dated May 14, 1998.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions in
certain circumstances that effect amounts reported in the consolidated financial
statements and notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECAPITALIZATION--CONTINUED

The Recapitalization

On October 8, 1997, the Company entered into a recapitalization agreement, which
was amended and restated on October 27, 1997 (the "Recapitalization Agreement"),
with certain affiliates of INVESTCORP S.A. ("Investcorp") and certain other
international investors organized by Investcorp (collectively the "Investors").
Pursuant to the Recapitalization Agreement, on November 24, 1997, the Company
(a) amended and restated its Articles of Incorporation pursuant to which the
Company's capital stock was reclassified, (b) redeemed certain shares of the
reclassified stock totaling $330,700 and (c) sold to the Investors shares of
newly created Class C, D and E Common Stock of the Company totaling $122,700
(all of which actions together constituted the "Recapitalization"). Following
the Recapitalization, the Pre-Recapitalizaton shareholders continue to own
approximately 33% of the outstanding voting equity of the Company and the
Investors own approximately 67% of the outstanding voting equity of the Company.

Recapitalization Financing--The Recapitalization was funded by (a) $186,500 of
borrowings under a senior credit facility with a syndicate of banks which
included term loans, a revolving line of credit, and a facility providing for
borrowings collateralized by accounts receivable (collectively the "Senior
Credit Facility") (b) the issuance of $135,000 in principal amount of Senior
Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") and (c) proceeds from the sale of certain
shares of the Company's stock to the Investors.

Recapitalization Accounting--The transaction was accounted for as a
recapitalization and as such, the historical basis of the Company's assets and
liabilities was not affected. Recapitalization related costs were expensed and
reflected as a component of operating income in the Company's Consolidated
Statements of Operations.

C.     COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," (SFAS 130). The pronouncement
requires that an enterprise classify items of other comprehensive income or
"non-owner equity changes" as referred to by the Company, by their nature in a
financial statement and display the accumulated non-owner equity changes
separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity
section of the balance sheet. The Company adopted SFAS 130 on January 1, 1998.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1997 financial statements to conform to the requirements of this pronouncement.

D.     RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." This statement establishes standards for
reporting financial and descriptive information about operating segments. Under
SFAS No. 131, information pertaining to the Company's operating segments will be
reported on the basis that is used internally for evaluating segment performance
and making resource allocation determinations. Management is currently studying
the potential effects of adoption of this statement, which is required in 1998.

D.     RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS--CONTINUED

In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits". This statement does not change the
recognition or measurement of pension and postretirement benefit plans, but
standardizes disclosure requirements for pensions and other postretirement
benefits, eliminates certain disclosures and requires certain additional
information. SFAS No. 132 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997.

E.     PRODUCT LIABILITY AND WORKERS COMPENSATION CLAIMS AND INSURANCE FUND 
       INVESTMENTS

In the first quarter of 1998, the Company made a decision to obtain commercial
insurance coverage for its product liability and workers' compensation claims as
opposed to providing insurance for such claims through Manufacturers Indemnity
and Insurance Company of America ("MIICA"), the Issuer's captive insurance
subsidiary. Accordingly, on March 31, 1998 the Company entered into an
arrangement with a commercial insurance provider under which the risk associated
with the Company's product liability and workers' compensation claims was
transferred to the commercial insurance provider and the commercial insurance
provider agreed to assume losses which occurred on or before March 31, 1998 and
extinguished the Company's liability in regard to such losses (the "MIICA
Insurance Transfer"). The Company paid approximately $41,500 for this insurance
coverage from the proceeds of the liquidation of certain of MIICA's insurance
fund investments. Immediately prior to the MIICA Insurance Transfer, the Company
had a reserve for such losses of approximately $47,500. As a result the Company
recognized a gain of approximately $6,000, which is included in other income
(expense), net. The Company has also obtained third party insurance coverage,
subject to certain deductible provisions, for product liability and workers'
compensation claims which occur on or after April 1, 1998.

Further, the Company made a decision to discontinue the operations of MIICA and
has recorded a charge of $1,500, which is included in other income (expense),
net at March 31, 1998 relating primarily to legal fees, employee separation and
severance costs, the write-off of certain of its fixed assets, and other related
expenses.

E.     PRODUCT LIABILITY AND WORKERS COMPENSATION CLAIMS AND INSURANCE FUND 
       INVESTMENTS--CONTINUED

In 1998 and 1997, MIICA recorded pre-tax impairment losses of $6,439 and $7,864
respectively, which is included in other income (expense), net relating to
available-for-sale equity securities deemed by management to be
other-than-temporarily impaired.

F.     SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR INFORMATION

The Company refinanced substantially all of its outstanding debt through
borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility and the Notes. The Issuer's
wholly-owned subsidiaries, except for MIICA (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"),
along with Holding, its parent, have provided full, unconditional, joint and
several guarantees of the Senior Credit Facility and the Notes and will provide
the same guarantee for obligations of any registered notes exchanged for the
Notes.

Following is condensed consolidated financial information for Holding (the
"Parent Company"), the Issuer, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and MIICA (the
"Non-Guarantor Subsidiary"). Separate financial statements of the Guarantor
Subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that they would
not provide additional information that is material to investors. Therefore, the
Guarantor Subsidiaries are combined in the presentation below. Further, separate
financial statements of the Issuer have not been provided as management has
determined that they would not provide information that is material to
investors, as the Issuer has no substantial operations or assets, other than its
investment in its subsidiaries.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for on the equity method of
accounting. Earnings at subsidiaries are, therefore, reflected in the Company's
investment account. The investment in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.

G.       SUBSEQUENT EVENT--ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION

On May 28, 1998, the Company, through a newly formed Delaware special purpose
subsidiary, entered into receivable sale agreements with a financial institution
and its affiliate, whereby the Company sold, and during the term of the
agreement will continue to sell, with limited recourse, an undivided interest in
all of its trade accounts receivable for cash and a residual interest in the
form of a note. Under these agreements, which expire in 2003, the maximum amount
of sale proceeds which may be accessed by the Company at any one time is
$50,000, subject to change based upon the level of its eligible receivables. The
proceeds of the sale were used to repay the outstanding amounts borrowed under
the receivables portion of the Senior Credit Facility.

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

GENERAL

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the notes thereto
included elsewhere in this document and the Company's Registration Statement on
Form S-4 as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated
May 14, 1998. This document contains, in addition to historical information,
forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and other uncertainties.
The Company's actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in
these forward-looking statements. In the text below, financial statement numbers
have been rounded, however, the percentage changes are based on the actual
financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AS COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED
MARCH 31, 1997

Net Sales. Net sales increased $7.4 million or 8.2% to $98.3 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $90.9 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1997. Net sales of climbing products increased $5.0 million, or 7.5% to $7.21
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $67.1 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997. The increase in net sales of climbing products was
primarily due to continued growth in the volume of fiberglass and aluminum step
and extension ladders sold, particularly to large do-it-yourself home
improvement retailers. Net sales of extruded products increased $2.4 million, or
10.3% to $26.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $23.9 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The increase is due to growth in
extrusions sold to customers in the building products and transportation 
sectors.

         Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased $0.9 million or 3.4% to $24.2
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $25.1 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily due to the increased sale of
lower margin units.

         General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense
increased $1.3 million or 17.2% to $9.0 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1998 from $7.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The increase was
due to the amortization of certain costs associated with the Recapitalization.

         Other Income (Expense), Net. Other income (expense), net increased $9.2
million to $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $(8.0) million
for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The increase was primarily attributable to
the net gain incurred on the MIICA Insurance Transfer. The Company recorded
impairment losses on certain insurance fund investments in both the first
quarter of 1998 and 1997.



                                       19
<PAGE>   21

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $6.9 million or 453.2% to $8.4
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $1.5 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997. The increase was primarily due to increased debt resulting
from the Recapitalization.

         Net Loss. Net loss increased $0.4 million or 15.5% to $2.8 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $2.5 million for the quarter ended March
31, 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash flows used in operating activities increased $15.9 million to
$(39.8) for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 from $(23.9) million for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997. The increase is primarily attributable to the net
effect of the liquidation of reserves for losses and loss adjustment expense
pursuant to the MIICA Insurance Transfer somewhat offset by decreased operating
working capital (receivables, refundable income taxes, inventories, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities).

         The Company satisfies its working capital needs and capital expenditure
requirements primarily through a combination of operating cash flow and
borrowing under its Senior Credit Facility. The Company believes it has
sufficient funds available to support debt service requirements, projected
capital expenditures and working capital needs based on projected results of
operations, availability under its Senior Credit Facility and other available
permitted borrowings.

SEASONALITY, WORKING CAPITAL AND CYCLICALITY

         Sales of certain products of the Company are subject to seasonal
variation. Demand for the Company's ladder products is affected by residential
housing starts and existing home sales, commercial construction activity and
overall home improvement expenditures. Due to seasonal factors associated with
the construction industry, sales of products and working capital requirements
are typically higher during the second and third quarters than at other times of
the year.
