              Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements


1.  In the opinion of the Douglas & Lomason Company (the "Company"), the
    accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all
    adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to
    present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 1995 and 1994,
    and the results of operations for the nine months then ended, and changes
    in financial position for the nine months then ended, subject to year end
    audit adjustments.


2.  On June 8, 1995, the Company acquired the stock of Bestop, Inc.
    ("Bestop").  Bestop is the leading designer and manufacturer in North
    America of soft tops and accessories for small sport utility vehicles.
    Bestop sells its products domestically and internationally to original
    equipment manufacturing (OEM) companies and in the aftermarket.  The
    purchase agreement required a purchase price of approximately $43,952,000.
    The acquisition has been accounted for in accordance with the purchase
    method of accounting.

    Had the acquisition of Bestop, Inc. occurred as of January 1, 1994,

3.  During the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company recorded a charge of $15.0
    million in connection with management's decision to close certain
    automotive plants. This resulted in an after tax charge of $9.6 million or
    $2.28 per share. $5.0 million of this charge was immediately utilized for
    the devaluation of building and equipment.

    During 1994, $1,650,000 was charged to facility maintenance costs and the
    payment of employee severance and benefit costs. These severance payments
    represented the majority of the 12% expected workforce reduction. In
    addition, $1.2 million of employee severance and benefit costs and
    $650,000 of facilities, maintenance and other costs were taken into income
    during the third and fourth quarters of 1994, respectively. Furthermore,
    in compliance with current guidance, site restoration and other
    environmental exit costs of $2.5 million were reclassified from the
    provision for plant closing accrual to other accrued liabilities during
    the fourth quarter of 1994. During the nine months ended September 30,


                                    5

    1995, approximately $1.7 million was charged against the accrual for
    facility maintenance and employee benefit costs. The cash outflows for the
    remaining accrued liability are expected to occur over the next two years.
    Selected financial information for these closed automotive facilities for
    the years ended December 31 are as follows:

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 1995, the Company had working capital of $62.5 million and
available borrowings of $14.0 million on a $60.0 million revolver credit
agreement with two banks. The current ratio was 1.7 to 1.0.

The principal increases in the accounts receivable, inventories and accounts
payable balance sheet amounts are due to the acquisition and consolidation of
Bestop, Inc. acquired in June 1995.

Funds from operations of $3.1 million and proceeds from borrowing in 1995 of
$55.0 million and the $6.5 million cash on hand at the beginning of the year
were the principal sources of cash in the first nine months of 1995. The
acquisition of Bestop, Inc. in June, 1995 for $43.5 million, capital
expenditures of $13.2 million, debt repayment of $6.3 million, pension
obligation of $1.0 million and dividends of $.8 million were the primary uses
of cash.

The Company is in the final stages of forming a joint venture in a foreign
country to further it's global opportunities. This will require a capital
contribution of approximately $5.0 million, which will be primarily funded by
an anticipated dividend from an investment in an affiliated company.

No other significant borrowings are anticipated.

Plant Closings

The three plants included in the fourth quarter 1993 plant closing plan
discontinued operations and terminated substantially all employees during the
year of 1994. Sale of certain property, plant and equipment remains to be
completed. The cash outflows for the remaining accrued liability are expected
to occur over the next two years.

Results of Operations

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1995 of $131.3 million have
decreased $6.4 million from the three month sales of $137.7 for the period
ended September 30, 1994. This decrease of 4.7% is primarily attributable to
the decrease in volume for the Ford Aerostar, Ford Contour and Mercury
Mystique, for which the Company supplies fully trimmed seat sets, and General
Motor's decision to phase out the Chevrolet Caprice and Buick Roadmaster.
Also, the changeover of the Chrysler minivan resulted in some sales reduction.

Net sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 1995 of $416.9 million
increased $32.5 million or 8.5% over the same period in 1994. The principal
increase is due to the consolidation of the sales of the Company's recently
acquired subsidiary, Bestop, Inc. as well as the effect of a full nine months
sales in 1995 for the Contour and Mystique in Mexico which began in August
1994.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased to 94.8% for the three month
period ended September 30, 1995 compared to 95.9% in the same period in 1994.
The Company has realized an increase in the equity earnings of an investment
which has reduced cost of sales consistent with previous years' presentations.
The effect of this reduction is less than 1% of sales in both the three month
and nine month figures. 

The trend of raw material price increases and reduced selling prices to our 
customers as a result of long term agreements prevalent in the automotive 


                                    7

<PAGE>



industry had and will continue to have an adverse effect on the relationship 
of cost of sales to sales. Opportunities for cost reduction will improve 
this trend.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended
September 30, 1995 of $6.8 million increased $1.9 million from the $4.9
million reported for the same three month period of 1994. The Bestop
consolidation accounts for $1.7 million of this increase.

The selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1995 of $18.8 million increased $3.1 million from the
$15.7 million reported for the nine month period ended September 30, 1994.
Again, this increase is principally attributable to the consolidation of
Bestop, Inc. Other factors of the increase reflect higher salaries and
increased employment costs.

Interest Expense

Interest expense in the third quarter of 1995 of $1.7 million increased $1.0
million from the same quarter in 1994. Higher debt levels in 1995 of
approximately $51.0 million primarily related to the Bestop acquisition and
capital expenditures is the principal explanation for the increase in interest
expense.


Net Earnings (Loss)

Net loss of $800,000 or $.19/share in the third quarter of 1995 compares
unfavorably with the net earnings of $234,000 or $.05/share for the third
quarter of 1994. Sales in July, 1995 and 1994 were substantially lower than
normal levels as a result of customer shutdowns for vacations and changeovers.
The impact of the reduced sales level in July results in substantial losses
that have not been recovered in August and September. The net earnings in 1994
included a reduction of $1.2 million (pretax) to the provision for plant
closings recorded in 1993. The adjustment reflected lower than expected costs
related to the fourth quarter 1993 plant closing plan.


Net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 of $2.1 million or
$.50/share decreased $4.0 million from the $6.1 million or $1.43/share
reported for the same period in 1994. Net earnings for the nine month period
in 1995 have been negatively impacted by the rising cost of raw materials and
selling price reductions included in long term agreements which are prevalent
in the automotive industry. Opportunities for cost reductions through
engineering changes will improve this trend in the future.
