NOTE C - ACQUISITIONS
- ---------------------
         In June 1994, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of
         Rust-Oleum Corporation in a transaction accounted for by the purchase
         method of accounting.  The following data summarizes, on an unaudited

         the nine and three months ended February 28, 1995 and February 28,
         1994.  The pro-forma amounts give effect to appropriate adjustments
         resulting from the combination, but are not necessarily indicative of
         future results of operations or of what results would have been for
         the combined companies.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
       Compared with last year, the Company's sales increased 23.1% in the
       first nine months of this year and 23.2% in the third quarter.  On June
       28, 1994, the Company acquired Rust-Oleum Corporation, the leading North
       American producer of consumer rust-preventative coatings, accounting for
       approximately two-thirds of these sales increases.  The Company's core
       businesses generated the balance of sales growth principally from higher
       unit volume and product line additions.  Pricing adjustments have been
       more extensive this year than in the recent past to compensate for
       nearly universal supplier cost increases.  Exchange rate differences had
       a slightly positive effect on sales from year to year.

       The gross profit margin strengthened during the third quarter to 41.5%
       from 40.4% a year ago pushing the nine months' margin of 42% ahead of
       last year's 41.7%.  The recent improvement reflects primarily the
       benefit of increased sales volume among the core businesses and, to a
       lesser extent, Rust-Oleum's higher gross profit margin.  While there
       have been a number of raw material and packaging cost increases
       throughout the past nine months, management is confident these will
       continue to be effectively negated through the leverage of combined
       purchasing of significant materials, pricing adjustments as necessary,
       and product reformulations.

       The Company's nine month selling, general and administrative expenses
       are 30.1% of sales versus 29.7% a year ago as a result of Rust- Oleum's
       higher percentage in this category along with associated acquisition
       expenses.  Higher sales volume and increased joint venture income had
       slightly offsetting favorable effects.  Comparing third quarters, the
       higher percentage this year (33.4%, up .6%) was attributable to
       Rust-Oleum's seasonality, while core businesses actually enjoyed a
       percentage reduction in this category from higher sales volume and
       continued expense control.

       Interest expense increased $7.8 million this year as a result of
       increased debt associated with the Rust-Oleum acquisition.  Nearly $1.0
       million of the $1.4 million offset was accomplished through lower rate
       refinancing of debt assumed through the October 1993 Stonhard
       acquisition, with the balance from debt reductions.  Interest rate
       increases had a slight negative effect from year to year.  The Rust-
       Oleum acquisition debt accounted for the difference between third
       quarters.

       Net income margins during the first nine months and third quarter were
       below the same periods last year because of the seasonality of
       Rust-Oleum and its acquisition related expenses.  While Rust-Oleum did
       contribute slightly to nine month earnings, as previously announced
       their strongest anticipated financial impact will come during the
       Company's first and fourth quarters, with seasonally weaker periods
       during the middle of the fiscal year.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
- -------------------------------

CASH PROVIDED FROM OPERATIONS
       Cash flow from operations continues to be the primary source of
       financing the Company's internal growth.  The Company generated cash
       from operations of $63 million for the first nine months of this
       year, up $23 million from the same period last year.

       The additional cash generated from operations this year was primarily
       the result of seasonal reductions in Rust-Oleum's working capital ($16.1
       million) along with increased net income and the timing of payables and
       accrued expenses among the core businesses.

INVESTING ACTIVITIES 
       The Company invested $173.1 million, net of cash acquired, in the 
       purchase of Rust-Oleum.

       The Company's capital expenditures generally do not exceed depreciation
       and amortization in a given year.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES
       In connection with the acquisition of Rust-Oleum, the Company negotiated
       a $300 million revolving credit agreement.  At the time of acquisition,
       $178 million of this facility was used to finance the purchase, $8
       million was used to refinance a portion of Rust-Oleum's existing long
       term debt, and $47 million was used to refinance the outstanding balance
       of a $55 million revolving credit agreement that was subsequently
       terminated.  The Company has since reduced long term debt by $29 million
       through cash provided from operations, before exchange rate differences.
       As a result of the above plus the LYONs interest accretion, the
       Company's debt/capital ratio has increased to 55% at February 28, 1995
       from 43% at May 31, 1994.

       Working capital increased to $257 million from $227 million at May 31,
       1994, with half of this increase attributable to Rust-Oleum.  The
       current ratio remains at 3.1:1 after nine months.

       The Company maintains excellent relations with its banks and other
       financial institutions to further enable the financing of future growth
       opportunities.

ITEM 3 -- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- ---------------------------

                 As previously reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1994, and as updated in the Company's
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended August 31, 1994 and
November 30, 1994, Bondex International, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company ("Bondex") has been named as one of numerous corporate defendants in
330 asbestos-related bodily injury lawsuits filed on behalf of various
individuals in various jurisdictions in the United States.  Subsequently, an
additional 17 such cases have been filed, and 8 such cases which had been filed
have been dismissed with prejudice as a result of the inability of plaintiffs
to prove exposure to any Bondex asbestos-containing product.  In addition, 1
such case was settled by Bondex and its insurers for a nominal amount.  Bondex
continues to deny liability in all 338 asbestos-related lawsuits that remain
pending and continues to vigorously defend them.  Under a cost-sharing
agreement among Bondex and its insurers effected in February, 1994, the
insurers are responsible for payment of a substantial portion of defense costs
and indemnity payments, if any, relating to asbestos-related litigation, and
Bondex is responsible for a minor portion of each.
