NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1995
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- ------------------------------
The accompanying Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have
been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
applied on a consistent basis and, in the opinion of management, include
all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a
fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the year.
These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Grossman's Inc. for the
year ended December 31, 1994. The balance sheet as of December 31, 1994
has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date.
The Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements include the
accounts of Grossman's Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the
"Company") after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions.
The Company's fiscal year end is December 31. The Company records
activity in quarterly accounting periods of equal length, ending on the
last Saturday of each quarter. The differences in amounts presented and
those which would have been presented using actual quarter end dates are
not material.
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for prior years
have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such
reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of
operations.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
MARCH 31, 1995 COMPARED WITH DECEMBER 31, 1994
- ----------------------------------------------
The first quarter is one in which the Company prepares for the start of
the spring selling season. Financial condition at March 31, 1995 reflects
the buildup of inventory, a related increase in payables and term
financing, and the seasonal operating loss. In addition, during the first
quarter of 1995 the Company completed certain property sales and related
paydowns on long-term debt.
Working capital of $29.9 million declined by $13.6 million from the prior
year end, principally due to a $16.2 million reclassification to current
maturity of 14% Debentures, due January 1, 1996. Accounts receivable,
principally related to credit extended to contractors, declined by 25.3%,
consistent with the 28.0% decline for the corresponding period one year
ago. Inventory at March 31, 1995 totalled $124.9 million, representing a
7.1%, or $8.3 million, seasonal increase from year end. From one year
ago, inventory declined by 7.2%, reflecting 18 Eastern Division store
closings, offset in part by Contractors' Warehouse openings in Dayton,
Ohio in June 1994 and Indianapolis, Indiana in January 1995. Three
additional Contractors' Warehouse stores are planned to open later in
1995. Two Mr. 2nd's Bargain Outlets have also opened since one year ago,
in Woonsocket, Rhode Island and Schenectady, New York. The increase in
inventory was financed by a $3.0 million increase in accounts payable,
supplemented by borrowings under the Company's revolving credit agreement.
Borrowings under the revolving credit agreement, which were also used for
other seasonal requirements, increased by $11.4 million since year end.
During the quarter, the Company sold its Eastern Division Distribution
Center located in Manchester, Connecticut and repaid outstanding debt of
$4.2 million. Additional related secured debt totalling $643 thousand is
due in May 1995.
The Company continues to market properties vacated as a result of closing
a total of 40 stores since 1993. Of the 22 owned stores within this
group, nine were sold prior to 1995, two were sold in 1995, one in the
first quarter of 1995 and one early in the second quarter, three are under
agreement to be sold, and one was reopened as a Mr. 2nd's Bargain Outlet.
Of the 18 leased properties within this group, 10 leases have been
terminated, three leases are due to be terminated in 1995, and one store
was reopened as a Mr. 2nd's Bargain Outlet. Proceeds received in the
first quarter from the sale of the distribution center and the closed
store property totalled $9.2 million. It is anticipated that sales of the
remaining owned properties will be sold over a period of years, resulting
in a liquidity improvement at the time of each respective sale.
Property, plant and equipment declined by $11.2 million since year end,
reflecting property sales, offset in part by $1.2 million in capital
expenditures. Capital expenditures were made principally to support the
store openings.
10
<PAGE> 11
During the first quarter of 1995, the Company recorded an adjustment of
$872 thousand, reducing the investment in its 50% owned Mexican joint
venture, to reflect a devaluation of the Mexican peso in relation to the
U.S. dollar. A corresponding adjustment was made to stockholders'
investment.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS
ENDED MARCH 31, 1994
- ------------------------------------------------------------
The Company's first quarter historically has been a period of low sales
activity with resultant operating losses, as fewer do-it-yourself home
improvement projects and construction activities in the Company's markets
are undertaken during the winter months. First quarter sales have
historically been less than 20% of full year sales.

</TABLE>
Sales and operating results in the three months ended March 31, 1995
were affected by the following:
- - The 1994 sales results include stores closed in the latter part of
1994.
- - During the majority of the first quarter of 1995, nearly all Eastern
Division stores were undergoing remodeling designed to better
attract professional customers.
12
<PAGE> 13
- - The 1995 sales results include the results of two Contractors'
Warehouse stores and two Mr. 2nd's Bargain Outlet stores which were
not open during the comparable period in 1994. Contractors'
Warehouse stores were opened in Dayton, Ohio in June 1994 and in
Indianapolis, Indiana in January 1995. Mr. 2nd's Bargain Outlet
stores were opened in Woonsocket, Rhode Island in December 1994 and
in Schenectady, New York in March 1995.
- - Sales results were affected by declining selling prices for wood
building materials, which represent over 25% of the Company's sales
mix. Commodity lumber prices have declined as much as 30% since one
year ago.
- - In California, heavy rainfall during the months of January and March
1995 dampened sales. The renovation of most affected homes, often
dependent on both receipt of insurance proceeds and dryer building
conditions, is not expected to begin until later in the second
quarter.
Comparable store sales results in the East continue to be indicative of
the Company's strategy to strengthen the appeal of stores to target
customers - contractors, remodelers and serious do-it-yourselfers.
Comparable increases in professional sales have offset a decline in retail
sales, reflective of increasingly competitive conditions. Contractors'
Warehouse comparable store sales results are indicative of the wet
conditions during the first quarter of 1995 and the continuing slowing
economy in Southern California.
Gross profit declined by $2.6 million as the result of the sales decline
and a decline in gross margin from 24.9% in 1994 to 24.4% in 1995. The
decline in gross margin reflects the increase in sales mix toward
professional sales, including Contractors' Warehouse, from 61.6% of total
sales in the first quarter of 1994 to 66.5% of total sales in the first
quarter of 1995. Additionally, margins on commodity lumber have declined
concurrent with the price decline discussed above.
Selling and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 1995 reflect
store openings and additional expenses, principally payroll, related to
Eastern Division store modifications. These modifications, designed to
attract professional sales, were completed in all Grossman's stores in
time for the spring selling season. These additional expenses are
expected to be recovered during the balance of the year. As a result of
these expenses, selling and administrative expense increased as a
percentage of sales to 29.7% in 1995, as compared to 27.6% in 1994.
Interest expense increased from $1.9 million in the first quarter of 1994
to $2.2 million in the first quarter of 1995, reflecting both an increase
in average revolving credit and the rate on such borrowings. The weighted
average rate on revolver borrowings increased from 6.9% in 1994 to 9.4% in
1995.
The 1995 first quarter results include $198 thousand net loss related to
the Company's 50% owned Mexican joint venture, which began operations
during the 1994 second quarter.
