NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1998
1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
presented. All adjustments made are of a normal recurring nature.
While the Company believes that the disclosures presented herein are
adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these
unaudited financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1998 ("fiscal 1998") as filed
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income". SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting
comprehensive income and its components. SFAS No. 130 also requires that the
cumulative balance of these items of other comprehensive income be reported
separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity
section of a statement of financial position. SFAS No. 130 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company adopted SFAS No. 130
in the first quarter ended May 31, 1998 (unaudited) and the adoption did not
have a material impact on the Company's disclosures in its financial statements.
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related information". SFAS No. 131 establishes standards
for the way public companies report selected information about operating
segments in both quarterly and annual financial statements to their
shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas and major customers. SFAS No. 131 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. This statement is
not required to be applied to interim financial statements in the initial year
of its application. The Company has not yet determined the effects, if any, that
SFAS No. 131 will have on the disclosures in its financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Steel City Products, Inc. ("SCPI") is a special, limited purpose,
majority-owned subsidiary of Oakhurst Company, Inc. ("Oakhurst"). SCPI is
expected to concentrate on its historical line of business, while any future
growth and expansion opportunities are expected to be pursued by one or more
subsidiaries of Oakhurst. Through Oakhurst's ownership of SCPI, primarily in the
form of preferred stock, Oakhurst retains substantially all the value of SCPI,
and receives substantially all of the benefit of operations through dividends on
the preferred stock. Oakhurst's ownership of SCPI is designed to facilitate the
preservation and utilization of SCPI's and Oakhurst's net operating tax loss
carry-forwards which amount to approximately $155 million.
In addition to cash derived from operations, SCPI's liquidity and
financing requirements are determined principally by the working capital needed
to support its level of business, together with the need for capital
expenditures and the cash required to repay its debt. SCPI also receives cash
payments pursuant to a note receivable from Oakhurst, and from time to time,
repayments of advances to Oakhurst. SCPI's working capital needs fluctuate
primarily due to the amounts of inventory it carries which can change
seasonally, the size and timeliness of payment of receivables from its customers
to which from time to time SCPI grants extended payment terms for their seasonal
inventory builds, and the amount of credit extended to SCPI by its suppliers.
SCPI participates in a cash concentration system together with all the
subsidiaries of Oakhurst. Available cash that is transferred to Oakhurst is
reflected as an addition to the advances to Oakhurst.
At August 31, 1998, SCPI's debt primarily consisted of notes payable
with outstanding principal balances aggregating approximately $353,000 that were
issued in connection with the settlement of certain contingent liabilities
related to SCPI's former retail division. SCPI also has revolving debt of
approximately $2.7 million which is offset entirely by advances receivable from
Oakhurst that bear interest at the same rate as the revolving debt.
Oakhurst and its subsidiaries, including SCPI, have available financing
under a revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") from an institutional lender
up to a maximum of $7 million, subject to a borrowing base that is calculated
according to defined levels of the subsidiaries' accounts receivable and
inventories. At August 31, 1998, the borrowing base under the Revolver was $5.4
million. In fiscal 1998, the Revolver was extended to April 1999, and provides
for subsequent renewal terms of one year each upon payment of a renewal fee of
0.5% of the entire line, unless earlier terminated as provided for in the
agreement. Management believes that the Revolver will provide adequate funding
for SCPI's working capital requirements for at least the next twelve months,
assuming no material deterioration in current sales levels or gross profit
margins.
From time to time the information provided by the Company or statements
made by its employees may contain so-called "forward looking" information that
involves risks and uncertainties. In particular, statements contained in this
Item 2 - "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations," which are not historical facts (including, but not
limited to statements concerning anticipated sales, profit levels, customers and
cash flows) are forward looking statements. The Company's actual future results
may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statements.
Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to the
factors discussed above as well as the accuracy of the Company's internal
estimates of revenue and operating expense levels. Each of these factors and
others are discussed from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange
Commission filings.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
As of August 31, 1998, there had been no material changes in the
Company's financial condition from February 28, 1998, discussed in Item 7 of the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 1998.
MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Operations include the results of SCPI's operating division, Steel City
Products, a distributor of automotive parts and accessories and of non-food pet
supplies based in McKeesport, Pennsylvania.
THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1998 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED
AUGUST 31, 1997
Sales in the second quarter of the current year increased by $250,000
compared with the second quarter of the prior year, due primarily to the
addition of new automotive and pet supply customers. Sales to existing customers
in the current year second quarter were essentially the same as in the prior
year.
Other income increased by $27,000 in the second quarter of the current
year compared with the second quarter of the prior year, largely due to
increased auto show revenues that resulted from greater vendor participation in
the current year show.
Notwithstanding the increase in sales, gross profits decreased by
$81,000 in the second quarter of the current year compared with the second
quarter of the prior year, due to a decrease in gross margin of 2.8%, together
with an increase of $32,000 in buying and occupancy expenses. The decrease in
gross margin was principally attributable to several sales promotions during the
second quarter. The increase in buying and occupancy expenses resulted from
costs related to operating from rented facilities in the current year, while in
the prior year operations were conducted from an owned warehouse that was sold
in December 1997.
Operating, selling and administrative decreased by $19,000 when
compared with the second quarter of the prior year, largely due to a decrease in
management fees.
Interest expense decreased by $34,000, mainly due to SCPI's repayment
of a term loan in December 1997.
SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1998 COMPARED WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1997
Sales in the current year period decreased by $46,000 compared with the
prior year, due to the sale of the "Wing-tech" division in first quarter of the
prior year. Sales attributable to the Wing-tech division in the prior year were
$117,000. Sales to existing automotive customers decreased by approximately
$590,000, primarily as a result of competitive pressures encountered by certain
of SCPI's customers, and because some customers have changed their buying
practices to obtain certain product lines direct from the manufacturer. Mostly
offsetting these decreases were sales to new automotive customers of
approximately $326,000, and increases in non-food pet supply sales.
-10-
<PAGE> 11
Sales of non-food pet supplies were $916,000 in the current year,
compared with $581,000 in the prior year. The increase in sales of $335,000
resulted from expanded sales to existing pet supply customers, together with
sales of $230,000 to new pet supply customers recently added.
Other income increased by $36,000 in the current year period compared
with the prior year, largely due to increased auto show revenues that resulted
from greater vendor participation in the current year show.
Gross profits decreased by $174,000 in the current year period compared
with the prior year, due to lower profits of $32,000 related to the Wing-tech
division, a decrease in gross margin of 1.3%, and an increase of $33,000 in
buying and occupancy expenses. The decrease in gross margin was principally
attributable to several sales promotions during the second quarter of the
current year. The increase in buying and occupancy expenses resulted from costs
related to operating from rented facilities in the current year, while in the
prior year operations were conducted from an owned warehouse that was sold in
December 1997.
Interest expense decreased by $64,000, primarily due to SCPI's
repayment of a term loan in December 1997.
