CONTINENTAL MATERIALS CORPORATION
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION FORM 10-Q
NOTES TO THE QUARTERLY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 28, 1997
(Unaudited)
1.The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
included herein are prepared pursuant to the rules and
regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally accompanying the
annual financial statements have been omitted. The interim
financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments (none of which were other
than normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods.
2.During the quarter, as allowed by the current credit
agreement, the Company elected to convert $2,000,000
qualifying capital expenditures purchased with funds from the
revolving credit facility to the term loan with a
corresponding decrease in the revolving credit facility and a
proportional increase in the term-loan amortization.
3.The provision for income taxes is based upon the estimated
effective tax rate for the year.
4.Operating results for the first six months of 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of performance for the entire year.
Historically, sales of construction materials are higher in
the second and third quarters. Overall, sales of heating and
air-conditioning products have not shown strong seasonal
fluctuations in recent years although product mix has
historically yielded higher gross profit margins in the fourth
quarter. (See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements in the Company's 1996 Annual Report.)

<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation
Financial Condition (See pages 2 and 5)
Operations for the first six months of 1997 used $5,648,000 in
cash compared to $713,000 in 1996. The increased use of cash
is attributed to higher inventory balances and reduced accrued
expense and payables balances. The increase in inventories is
the result of a decision by Williams Furnace to carry
additional wall furnaces at this time as well an increase in
Williams' fan coil business. The Company expects to reduce
inventories throughout the second half of the year in line
with current sales demand. The decrease in accrued expenses
reflects the expected payment of certain 1996 year end
accruals while the decrease in accounts payable is the result
of timing of payments.
The Company estimates that its short-term line of credit (of
which $6,500,000 was outstanding at June 28, 1997) will be
adequate to meet its cash requirements for the foreseeable
future. See also the discussion of the credit facility in
Note 2 of the accompanying Notes to the Quarterly Consolidated
Financial Statements. Historically, the Company's borrowings
against the short-term line peak during the second quarter and
decline over the remainder of the year.
Operations - Comparison of Quarter Ended June 28, 1997 to
Quarter Ended June 29, 1996
(See page 3)
Consolidated net sales increased $867,000 (3.2%). The
construction materials segment reported sales up $1,705,000
(14.3%) due to the acquisition of Transit Mix of Pueblo during
the last quarter of 1996 which offset the expected modest
decline in the construction market in the Colorado Springs,
Colorado area. Unfavorable weather conditions during the
height of Phoenix Manufacturing's selling season were mainly
responsible for the decline of $837,000 (5.5%) in the heating
and air-conditioning segment. Williams Furnace showed
improved sales volume attributable to the fan coil product
line, however, this growth was not significant enough to
offset the decline in this segment's other product offerings.
Consolidated cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation,
depletion and amortization) as a percentage of sales increased
from 75.3% to 77.2% as a result of increased volume in the
traditionally lower margin construction materials segment and
a change in product mix in the heating and air-conditioning
segment.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased $208,000
(31.1%) mainly due to the acquisition of Transit Mix of Pueblo
in the last quarter of 1996.

<PAGE>
Operations - Comparison of Six Months Ended June 28, 1997 to
Six Months June 29, 1996(See page 4)
Net sales rose $3,920,000 (8.7%). The increase in the
construction materials segment, $4,255,000 (21.7%) and the
decrease in the heating and air-conditioning segment $334,000
(1.3%), were due to the reasons noted above.
Consolidated cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation,
depletion and amortization) as a percentage of sales increased
from 76.3% to 77.9% due to reasons noted above.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased $426,000
(32.1%) due to the reason noted above.
The prior year equity loss from mining partnership includes a
first quarter write-down in the carrying value of the
investment of $628,000.
Historically, the Company has experienced operating losses
during the first quarter. The second quarter has historically
improved over the first quarter's operating results. This
trend is expected to continue as sales of construction
materials are generally higher in the second and third
quarters while sales of heating and air-conditioning products,
although not showing strong seasonality, experience product
mix changes that yield higher gross profits in the fourth
quarter.
