NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1996
---------------
(1) Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1996
classifications.
(2) The consolidated financial statements included in this report have been
prepared by the Company from the consolidated statements of HMI Industries
Inc. and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of the Company, these
consolidated financial statements contain all of the adjustments necessary
to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 1996 and
September 30, 1995, the results of operations for the three months and six
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 and the cash flows for the six months
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. Independent public accountants have not
audited the March 31, 1996 statements.
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and the notes included in the Company's latest
annual report on Form 10-K.
(3) In January 1996, the operations of Holland Electro B.V. in Rotterdam were
placed into bankruptcy, triggering the Conditional Purchase Agreement the
Company had with a Dutch bank in the amount of $1,104,000. As a result,
the Company was required to take possession of finished goods and
work-in-progress inventories. It has always been the plan that these
inventories would be sold to existing customers and that some assembly and
purchasing would be required to liquidate these inventories. That plan
has been adopted and the inventories are currently being sold. The
Company continues to use certain molds it purchased through Holland
Electro B.V. to produce the ElektraPure product line. The Company does
not anticipate a material loss from the purchase of these inventories;
consequently no provision for loss has been recorded.
(4) Inventories at March 31, 1996 and September 30, 1995 consist of the
following:

operations distributed through grocery chains and Supermarkets in Canada.
Revenues and expenses related to this business have been classified as
discontinued operations for the three and six month periods ended March
31, 1996 and 1995. At this time, the Company does not anticipate a loss
from the disposal of this operation. Accordingly, no provision has been
recorded.

HMI INDUSTRIES INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET SALES - Net product sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 were
$30,804,000, a decrease of 14% from $35,790,000 in the comparable quarter for
1995. Net sales for the six months ended March 31, 1996 were $57,490,000 as
compared to $65,924,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1995, a 13% decline.
The sales decline was primarily the result of the UAW disruption at Bliss
Manufacturing last August as described in the Company's 1995 10-K. Sales
during the quarter were also affected by the UAW strike at General Motors in
March 1996. Bliss Manufacturing has experienced steady growth in sales since
an agreement was reached with the Employees labor association in December.
Barring no other UAW disruptions within its customers' operations, management
expects sales for Bliss to continue to increase during the second half of
fiscal 1996.
The Company has adopted a plan to sell its steam cleaning rental leasing
operations distributed through grocery chains and supermarkets in Canada.
Revenues and expenses related to this segment of Household Rental Systems have
been classified as discontinued operations for the three and six month periods
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. At this time, the Company does not anticipate a
loss from the disposal of this operation. Accordingly, no provision was
recorded.
FINANCING REVENUE AND OTHER INCOME - Financing revenues represent the interest
and fees generated by the Company's Australian, Mexican, Canadian and United
States subsidiaries generated on the contracts financed.
GROSS PROFIT - Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 was $8,544,000
or 27.7% as compared to $10,991,000 or 30.7% in the quarter ending March 31,
1995. Gross profit for the six months ended March 31, 1996 was 27.7% compared
to 29.7% for the comparable period in 1995. In the Consumer Goods Division,
increased production costs as a result of material price increases and
production scheduling difficulties within the North American and European
production units and volume decreases within the North American market resulted
in a decrease in margins. The decrease in sales at Bliss generated lower gross
margins as a result of the fixed cost element included in its cost of sales.
This combined with low margins within the US tubular operations at Tube Form
were the primary causes of decreased gross profit within the Manufactured
Products division. The US tubular operations were substantially moved to
Bliss' Newton Falls, Ohio production facility in April 1996. By relocating
this operation, the tubular business should benefit from Bliss' extensive
customer base, operating management, quality and engineering programs and lower
overhead costs. These changes should allow these operations to experience
increased gross margins and profitability.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $940,000 for the quarter as compared to
the quarter ending March 31, 1995 and by
<PAGE> 8
$2,282,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the six
months ended March 31, 1995. As a percent of revenues, selling, general and
administrative costs were 27.4% for the quarter ending March 31, 1996 as
compared to 21.0% for the quarter ending March 31, 1995. The increase in
selling, general and administrative costs for the quarter and for the six
months as a percentage of sales and in dollars is attributable to the addition
of new businesses by the Company without corresponding increases in sales as of
yet. These businesses such as HMI Personal Care Corporation are in the
start-up phase of their operations or are businesses used to enhance the sales
of the core Consumer Goods segment of the Company (i.e. finance company
operations). Selling, general and administrative costs as a percentage of
sales have increased as result of the decrease in sales at Bliss and Mexico.
The Company's corporate structure has not been changed as a result of the
decrease in sales at Bliss as the decrease is anticipated to be a temporary
situation. Changes have been made within the Mexican operation, but the full
benefit from these changes have not fully been realized during the period. The
Company also incurred additional costs during the first three months of fiscal
1996 as a result of the Bliss labor disruption.
SPECIAL CHARGES - In connection with the move of two of the Company's
production facilities and a review and rationalization of the Company's product
lines, the Company performed a study of slow-moving and obsolete inventory
which resulted in a write-off of inventory and the creation of an inventory
reserve amounting to a one-time special charge (as well as the cost associated
with the moves) of $1,300,000.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The working capital balance at March 31, 1996 was $25,010,000 an increase of 5%
from the September 30, 1995 balance of $23,772,000. Increases in working
capital are primarily attributable to increases in receivables which increased
by $1,837,370 at March 31, 1996 as compared to September 30, 1995. This
increase is attributable to strong sales in March as compared to September thus
increasing current receivables. Inventory levels have decreased since
September 30, 1995 as the result of the inventory reserves recorded during the
quarter and as a result of the focus on a just-in-time inventory system.
Prepaid expenses increased as a result of costs incurred during fiscal 1996
which were deferred and will be amortized over the period in which benefit is
to be received as well as the deferral of specific costs related to the
introduction of the Company's room air cleaner (Defender), new attachments and
the ActivaJet needle less insulin injector. New market and product development
outlays will be amortized over their respective benefit and income periods.
Accounts payable increased by $1,858,000, primarily due to a tighter cash
position.
Capital expenditures for the six months ended March 31, 1996 were $3,477,000.
The Company has incurred $1,876,000 since September 30, 1995 for renovations of
its new Consumer Goods production facility in Cleveland. Normal capital
expenditures for the six months ended March 31, 1996 within the Consumer Goods
Division were $951,000 and $650,000 within the Manufactured Products Division.
During the six month period ended March 31, 1996, the Company made another
annual principal payment on the unsecured, 9.86%, seven year private placement
term notes, leaving a balance of $3,333,000. This debt, obtained in November
1990 to finance the acquisition of Bliss Manufacturing
<PAGE> 9
Company, requires annual principal payments of $1,666,667 in November 1996 and
1997.
The outstanding balance on the Company's line of credit was $13,994,000 at
March 31, 1996, bearing interest at a prime less one percent on $13,000,000
and at prime less one-half percent on the balance over $13,000,000. The prime
rate at March 31, 1996 was 8.25%. The increase in the borrowings of $4,290,000
since September 30, 1995 has funded investments in new products such as the
Defender and ActivaJet and current operating activities. During February 1996,
the Company negotiated an increase in its line of credit to $16,000,000 to meet
anticipated requirements.
The Company is in the process of renovating its production facility acquired in
June 1995. The Company negotiated a construction loan in March 1996 for
$2,300,000 to finance the renovation project. The Company had draws on the
construction loan of $1,490,000 during the quarter. The Company sold its
existing production facility in April 1996 which provided proceeds of
$490,000.
The Company borrowed $1,040,000 to fund the operations of its Australian
finance company during the quarter which was secured by the Australian finance
contract portfolio. Additionally, the Company received financing of $1,294,000
during the six months ended March 31, 1996 for the purchase of equipment for
the Manufactured and Consumer Goods businesses.
The effect of foreign exchange fluctuations is primarily limited to the
Canadian and Mexican operations. The impact of the devaluation in Mexico
during the quarter ended March 31, 1996 was $367 ,000 and has been reflected as
a component of equity based on the nature of the Company's investment and
intended timing of repayment of the amounts due. The value of the Mexican Peso
versus the US dollar continues to fluctuate. In management's opinion, the
amount of additional adjustments, if any, should not have a material effect on
consolidated shareholders' equity.
Management is focusing on the reduction of both inventories and accounts
receivables in order to reduce borrowings and increase cash flow. In addition,
management is pursuing the sales of portions of the finance contract portfolios
that it has funded from operating cash flows. During the next quarter,
management will pursue alternatives to its current borrowing structure which is
being utilized for future projects, products and capital items. Management
believes that its potential to borrow from existing debt sources and the
aggressive program of asset management will meet the liquidity needs of the
Company.
