                             THE TRANZONIC COMPANIES

              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

           Six- and three-month periods ended August 31, 1997 and 1996




Note A     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
           consolidated financial statements contain such adjustments (all of
           which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly
           the financial position of The Tranzonic Companies and subsidiaries
           (Company) at August 31, 1997 and the results of operations for the
           six- and three-month periods ended August 31, 1997 and 1996. The
           statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
           financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
           annual report for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1997.

Note B     Net earnings per Common Share have been calculated based on the
           weighted average Common Shares outstanding during the periods plus
           the incremental shares (calculated using the treasury share method)
           for those outstanding share options which are considered equivalent
           shares and have a dilutive impact on net earnings per Common Share.

Note C     The table below depicts the average Common Shares used in the
           calculation of net earnings per share for the reported periods and
           the outstanding:

                  =========        =========       =========         =========
</TABLE>

           The number of Common Shares outstanding at August 31, 1997 and 1996
           was 3,498,288 and 3,469,188, respectively.

Note D     On September 19, 1997, the Company entered into a definitive
           agreement to sell substantially all of the assets and business of
           Baxter Tube Company to Caraustar Industries, Inc. for approximately
           $14 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. The
           transaction is expected to close during the Company's third quarter
           and is expected to result in a one-time gain.

           Identifiable assets to be sold at Baxter Tube Company were $8,444,531
           and $3,664,490 at August 31, 1997 and February 28, 1997,
           respectively.

           Baxter Tube Company had sales of $8,215,383 and $6,213,879 through
           the six-month period and $4,239,622 and $2,997,915 through the
           three-month period ended August 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
           Baxter Tube Company's contribution to operating earnings before
           interest and taxes were $756,630 and $540,893 through the six-month
           period and $472,067 and $250,555 through the three-month period ended
           August 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Note E     A change in the estimated tax effect resulting from the divestiture
           of the Company's Housewares Division, which occurred in the prior
           fiscal year, caused a one-time $1.5 million tax credit.  This tax
           credit has been classified as "discontinued operations" as was the 
           related loss.  The related loss was recognized during the year 
           ended February 29, 1996.

                          -----------------------------

                 -----------------------------------------------
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operation
                  --------------------------------------------




Safe Harbor Statement
- ---------------------

With the exception of historical information, the matters discussed in this
Report are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, and
actual results could differ materially from those discussed.

Note on Forward-Looking Information
- -----------------------------------

Certain statements herein and in future filings by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and in written and oral statements made by or
with the approval of any authorized executive officer of the Company constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company
intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors
created by such Acts. The words and phrases "looking ahead," "we are confident,"
"should be," "will be," "predicted," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," and
similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements reflect the Company's current views in respect of future events and
financial performance, but are subject to many uncertainties and factors
relating to the Company's operations and business environment which may cause
the actual results of the Company to differ materially from any future results
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Examples of such
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, changes in customer demand and
requirements; fluctuations in prices for raw materials; changes in supplier
relationships or agreements; interest rate fluctuations; changes in federal
income tax laws and regulations; competition; changes in labor contracts; any
changes in the Company's financial condition or operating results due to
acquisitions or dispositions of businesses; unanticipated expenses and delays in
the integration of newly-acquired businesses; industry-specific factors; and
worldwide and regional economic and business conditions including, without
limitation, conditions which may affect public securities markets generally, the
paper and allied products industry, or the markets in which the Company
operates. The Company undertakes no obligations to update publicly or revise any
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future
events, or otherwise.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

The Company's financial position remains strong. At August 31, 1997, the current
ratio was 3.6:1 as compared to 3.3:1 at February 28, 1997, and working capital
increased to $33.8 million as compared to $31.2 million at fiscal year-end.

On March 3, 1997, the Company acquired for $4.8 million substantially all the
assets and assumed certain liabilities of Unity Paper Tubes, a manufacturer and
distributor of spiral-wound paper tubes and cores, located in the United
Kingdom. The acquisition was financed through the use of the Company's $30.0
million revolving line of credit. Existing cash and cash generated from
operations have since been used to repay this borrowing.

Subsequent to the second fiscal quarter close, the Company entered into a
definitive agreement to sell substantially all of the assets and business of
Baxter Tube Company to Caraustar Industries, Inc. The Company expects to record
a one-time gain once the transaction closes, which is expected in October 1997.

Results of Operation
- --------------------

Revenues in the current year's second fiscal quarter increased 10.1 percent to
$39.0 million, up from $35.4 million recorded a year ago. Each of the Company's
operating divisions participated in the revenue increase. Revenue gains recorded
by CCP Industries and Baxter Tube Company resulted principally from recent
acquisitions. Revenue gains from the extension of existing product lines
continued into the second fiscal quarter for Hospital Specialty Company.
Revenues in the six-month period ended August 31, 1997 increased 8.8 percent to
$76.3 million compared to $70.2 million of the prior year like period.

Operating margins were down slightly during the current year second fiscal
quarter to 8.3 percent from 8.5 percent of a year ago. Continued focus on
reducing selling, general and administrative expenses have nearly offset the
increase in cost of goods sold as sales mix, particularly at CCP Industries, and
strong price competition have put pressure on gross margins. Operating margins
for the six-month period of 8.1 percent reflected improvement over the 7.6
percent of a year ago.

Borrowings used to finance the acquisition of Unity Paper Tubes at the beginning
of the current fiscal year, as noted earlier, caused an unfavorable change in
net interest. During the prior year first quarter the Company received
approximately $10.0 million in cash from the sale of its Housewares Division.

A change in the estimated tax effect resulting from the divestiture of the
Company's Housewares Division, which occurred in the prior fiscal year, caused
a one-time tax credit of $1.5 million, or 42 cents per share applied to 
discontinued operations.

Net earnings in the six-month period ended August 31, 1997 were $5.5 million, or
$1.55 share, compared to $3.5 million, or $1.01 per share, recorded in the like
prior year period. Net earnings for the current year's second fiscal three-month
period were $3.7 million, or $1.02 per share, compared to $2.0 million, or 57
cents per share, recorded in the same period last year.
