NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The interim financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim
periods presented. This report should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10 filed by the Company
with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The results of operations
for the six months ended June 30,1999 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period.
Note 2. Inventories

Note 3. Income Taxes
The Company made an overpayment of approximately $140,000 in federal income
taxes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. This overpayment contributed
to a reduction in income taxes paid as reflected on the Company's Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. The
major contributor to this reduction, however, is the drop in net income for the
first half of 1999 as compared to the first half of 1998.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
This discussion contains statements that constitute forward looking statements
within the meaning of the securities laws. Such statements may include
statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of The Keller
Manufacturing Company, Inc. (the "Company") or its officers with respect to (i)
the Company's strategic plans, (ii) the policies of the Company regarding
capital expenditures, financing or other matters, and (iii) industry trends
affecting the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Readers of
this discussion are cautioned that any such forward looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and that
actual results may differ materially from those in the forward looking
statements as a result of various factors. This report should be read in
conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations included its Form 10 Registration Statement filed by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
As has been the Company's historical practice, a quarterly newsletter was sent
to the stockholders of the Company on August 9, 1999, with preliminary
abbreviated financial information included. In finalizing the financial
statements, certain expenses were re-categorized between Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses and Cost of Sales. This re-classification created a
reduction in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and an increase in
Cost of Sales of $281,000 for the second quarter and $649,000 for the first half
of 1999.
Results of Operations

</TABLE>
Three Months Ended June 30, 1999, compared to three months ended June 30, 1998.
Net Sales. Net sales increased approximately $2.0 million to approximately $15.7
million for the second quarter 1999 compared to approximately $13.7 million in
the second quarter 1998. This was an increase of approximately 14.8% in net
sales. The primary factor for the increase in net sales was due to the first
shipments of the PGA TOUR(R) group. The increased sales of the PGA TOUR group in
the second quarter over the first quarter were due, in large part, to a build up
in inventory of certain items which occurred in the first quarter while the
matching items were finished in the second quarter. The Company was able to ship
approximately $2.6 million of PGA TOUR product in the second quarter.
7
<PAGE>
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased
approximately 1.3% for the second quarter 1999, at 71.4% compared to 72.7% for
the second quarter 1998. Actual cost of sales rose from $9.9 million for the
second quarter 1998 to $11.2 million for the second quarter 1999. This dollar
increase was primarily due to the increase in sales during the same time period.
Another contributing factor to the higher cost of sales in the second quarter of
1999, which also accounted for, in part, a more than $130,000 increase in
material costs for the second quarter 1999 as compared to 1998's second quarter,
was the increased cost of lumber during 1998 which was not recognized until
1999. This lag in the recognition of higher lumber prices is due to the fact
that once lumber is purchased, almost a full year will pass until that same
lumber has passed completely through the Company's manufacturing process and
emerges as finished furniture. Lumber prices for 1999 have fallen as compared to
1998 averaging approximately $100 per 1,000 board feet; however, the Company
will not begin to realize these cost reductions until the fourth quarter 1999.
The percentage decrease in Cost of Sales was due primarily to the improved cost
efficiencies resulting from the higher sales volume.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased approximately $0.7 million from the second
quarter 1998 to the second quarter 1999. As a percent of net sales, Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses increased approximately 3.0% from 12.3% for
the second quarter 1998 to 15.3% for the second quarter 1999.
Selling expenses for the second quarter 1999 increased approximately $400,000 as
compared to the second quarter 1998. The two most significant factors included
funds advanced to certain furniture retailers carrying the Company's PGA TOUR
furniture line for PGA TOUR events and sweepstakes, as well as royalties to the
PGA TOUR. These two items contributed to greater than half of the increased
selling expenses for the second quarter. Another contributing factor was
catalogs printed for the new PGA TOUR group. Expenses for PGA TOUR events and
catalogs are one time events and should not generate further significant
expenditures.
Another factor responsible for the increase in Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses was increases of approximately $150,000 for expenditures
involving implementation of the EMS Information System. The largest expense was
for training of office employees for installation of the accounts receivable,
accounts payable and the general ledger for the new 608 system. The 608 system
is a customized segment of the Company's EMS Information System and is designed
for use in the Company's accounting functions listed above. Developing this
custom software for the 608 system to be used in the office was also a major
expense. A final factor relating to the Company's computer systems, which is
also partially responsible for the rise in Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses, was added consulting necessary to upgrade the old information system
being used in certain areas.
Another factor contributing to the increase in Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses was a $207,000 reduction in certain expenses in the
second quarter 1998. The Company had previously set aside $207,000 for a
potential bad debt expense due to Smith's Home Furnishings, a furniture retailer
who filed for bankruptcy protection. A claim stemming from this filing alleged
Smith's Home Furnishings made a preferential payment to the Company of $207,000.
The bankruptcy court ruled that the Company is not liable for the claim. The
Company recognized a reduction in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
in the second quarter 1998 to reverse the expense previously recorded.
Net Income. As a result of the above factors, the Company's net income for the
second quarter 1999 was $1,282,727. This is $30,406 greater than 1998's second
quarter net income of $1,252,321.
Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1998
Net Sales. Net sales decreased approximately $700,000 to approximately $29.7
million from the first half of 1999 compared to $30.4 million in the first half
of 1998, a reduction of approximately 2.3%. The primary reason for the reduction
in sales was the introduction of the PGA Tour group. As is typical with the
introduction of any new group, efficiencies during the beginning of production
are lower than the Company's average but are expected to rise as production
continues in line with a typical learning curve.
8
<PAGE>
Cost of Sales. Total cost of sales decreased approximately $300,000 for the
first half of 1999. As a percent of net sales, cost of sales increased from
71.6% in the first half of 1998 to 72.2% for 1999. The main cause for the
percentage increase is the increase in the cost of lumber by $388,000 in the
first half of 1999 as compared to the first half of 1998. As mentioned above, a
reduction in lumber costs should be recognized in the fourth quarter of this
year.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses increased approximately $840,000 for the first six
months of 1999 as compared to 1998. This was a 3.1% increase as a percent of
sales, increasing from 12.3% in the first six months of 1998 to 15.4% in the
first six months of 1999. Non-recurring events including advances to furniture
retailers carrying the Company's PGA TOUR product line for PGA TOUR events and
sweepstakes and printing of catalogs for the PGA TOUR line were major factors of
the increase in the second quarter of 1999. Also, in the first quarter of 1999,
over $219,000 of advertising enticements for the Home Display Program were
incurred. This was a one time event in which approximately three-fourths of the
cost of the program was recognized. A $70,000 reduction in bad debt expense for
the first quarter of 1998 was recognized and a $207,000 reduction was recognized
in 1998 compared to 1999 relating to the bankruptcy court's ruling in 1998 that
no preferential payments were made to Smith's Home Furnishings.
Net Income. As a result of the above factors, the net income for the first six
months of 1999 was $2,328,012. This is $706,789 less than 1998's first half net
income of $3,034,801.
Liquidity and Capital Resources. There was no significant change in the
Company's liquidity. The largest shift was in Accounts Receivable which
increased approximately $800,000. This is due, primarily, to the increase in
sales for the second quarter 1999 of approximately $2.0 million compared to the
second quarter 1998. Cash for the same period dropped $200,000 which is
attributed to the redemption of approximately $232,000 in Company stock.
Accounts Payable was reduced by over $500,000. An increase and subsequent
reduction in Accounts Payable is due to the Company's practice of purchasing
large quantities of outsourced parts in one period in order to obtain favorable
pricing and shipping terms and paying for such purchases in a subsequent period.
A $500,000 Certificate of Deposit matured during this quarter and the Company
chose not to renew the investment, converting the Certificate of Deposit to
cash.
Year 2000
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's
computer programs that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or
engage in similar ordinary business activities.
"Year 2000 compliant," as used in this discussion, means that a date-handling
problem relating to the Year 2000 date change that would cause computers,
software or other equipment to fail to correctly perform, process and handle
date-related data for the dates within and between the 20th and 21st centuries,
is not expected to interfere with normal business operations.
Since 1996 the Company has been steadily reengineering its information systems
to prepare for the conversion to the year 2000. This effort began with the
purchase of a comprehensive enterprise information system ("EMS Information
System") that is designed to be year 2000 compliant. The EMS Information System
is a comprehensive Company wide information system encompassing a high majority
of the Company's computerized operations. Implementation has been progressing
well and is scheduled to be completed by the fourth quarter of 1999. Testing of
this system is scheduled to be completed by September 30, 1999. The Company has
engaged a consulting company to advise and assist it in the installation and
implementation of the system.
In the event that all applications have not been replaced by the end of the
year, the Company intends for both the old and the new systems to be capable of
handling the Year 2000 issues. Another consulting company was engaged to
ascertain that the old information system is Year 2000 compliant. Testing of
this system was completed on July 31, 1999. The old system is gradually being
phased out as each application is replaced by the new system but is still
expected to be in operation on some peripheral applications at year end.

<PAGE>
The Company formed a Year 2000 Project Team in 1998 to identify and correct Year
2000 problems with hardware, software, and imbedded microprocessors throughout
the Company. This team is cross-functional and is composed of eleven people.
They have identified many suspected problems and are now involved in the testing
and correction of these problems. This team is also working with key suppliers
and third-party service providers to identify external weaknesses and provide
solutions to prevent the disruption of business activities. Key suppliers and
service providers are identified by the Company as being those that would
materially affect the operations of the Company if the Company experienced
disruptions in materials or services from these suppliers. These include, but
are not limited to, suppliers of raw materials, utility providers, banking
services and insurance providers (particularly medical).
The team's work is proceeding well and is intended to be substantially completed
by November 1, 1999. The Company is in the process of receiving readiness
evaluations from key suppliers and have received responses from approximately
75% of its key suppliers. The Company expects to have responses from as many
suppliers as will fully respond by September 30, 1999. The Company is in the
process of evaluating those readiness evaluations it has received. The team's
estimated percentages of completion are as follows:
Present November 1, 1999
------- ----------------
New system installation 79% 85%
Old system modification 100% 100%
Operating systems 98% 100%
Hardware and Imbedded Chips 97% 100%
New system installation is not expected to be completed by December 31, 1999.
This is not expected to have a material adverse effect on Company results or
operations since the old systems which are slated for replacement after December
31, 1999 have been tested and are Year 2000 compliant.
Through 1998, the Company has incurred capital costs on the Year 2000 project of
approximately $1,018,000 and expenses of approximately $353,000. Capital costs
for 1999 are budgeted at $196,000 and expected expenses for programing and
consulting have been revised upward to $300,000 from the $100,000 estimation
previously disclosed due to unforseen programming and consulting costs due to
increased system integrations. Almost all of these costs are associated with the
new information system software and hardware which were purchased primarily to
provide management with information and tools to better manage the Company and
serve its customers. The expenses relating to Year 2000 compliance are expected
to be paid from existing capital and the Company does not expect these costs to
have a material adverse effect on its future results of operations, liquidity,
or capital resources.
Management believes that the most likely "worst-case" scenario will involve the
failure of business partners or service providers to be compliant, thereby
potentially causing temporary business interruptions and possibly affecting the
Company's normal operations. Management does not expect such disruptions to be
long-term, to materially affect the operations of the Company. The Company
cannot guarantee, however, that Year 2000 issues of all business partners will
be corrected in a timely manner or that the failure of its business partners to
correct these issues would not have a material adverse effect on its future
results of operations or financial condition.
The Company's Year 2000 contingency plan (the "Plan") was completed on July 30,
1999. The objective of the Plan is to provide the minimum level of acceptable
output and services in the event of a system or process failure. The Plan covers
the following areas: 1) utilities; 2) trucking operations; 3) manufacturing
equipment; 4) engineering applications; 5) personnel; 6) purchasing; 7) payroll;
8) accounting; 9) production scheduling; 10) the IBM, EMS and Windows NT
systems; and 11) the Company's wide area network. For each of the above listed
areas, the plan contains:
1. A Response Team. The names of members who are assigned to react in the
event of a failure.

5. Activation Threshold. At what point and who is to decide to activate the

6. Procedure. The recovery procedure to be followed after the Plan is

The Company also has a Year 2000 Command Team which is the first to be contacted
in the event of a Year 2000 related failure. The Command Team is responsible for
coordinating the various response teams in the event of a system(s) and/or
operation(s) failure. The Command Team is also scheduled to report to work on
January 1, 2000, in order to test various critical functions of the Company. The
Company believes it is taking the necessary steps to prevent major interruptions
to its business resulting from the Year 2000 issues.
Year 2000 Risks
The failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result in an
interruption in, or a failure of, certain normal business activities or
operations. Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. Due to the general
uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the
uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of third-party suppliers and customers,
the Company is unable to determine at this time whether the consequences of Year
2000 failures will have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations, liquidity or financial condition. The Company's efforts are expected
to significantly reduce the Company's level of uncertainty about the Year 2000
problem and, in particular, about the Year 2000 compliance and readiness of its
material external agents. The Company believes that, with the implementation of
new business systems and the completion of its projects as scheduled, the
possibility of significant interruptions of normal operations should be reduced.

emotional distress, constructive discharge and retaliatory actions by the
Company in violation of her rights protected by state law and Title VII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended by the Civil Rights Act of 1991. The
plaintiff seeks compensatory damages, consequential damages and punitive damages
in such amount as to be determined at trial, together with costs and attorney's
fees. In Oakes v. The Keller Manufacturing Company, Inc., filed June 9, 1999, in

outcome of the above actions will not have a material adverse effect on its
business, operations or financial condition.
