NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2000
1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
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 condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 ("fiscal 2000")
as filed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Operating results for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended February 28, 2001.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". In June
2000, SFAS No. 138 "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain
Hedging Activities" which amended several requirements of SFAS No. 133 was
issued. These standards are required to be adopted in years beginning after June
15, 2000. Oakhurst does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will
have a significant effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In November 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101,
"Revenue Recognition". This Bulletin sets forth the SEC Staff's position
regarding the point at which it is appropriate for a Registrant to recognize
revenue. The Staff believes that revenue is realizable and earned when all of
the following criteria are met:
o Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists
o Delivery has occurred or service has been rendered
o The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or
determinable, and
o Collectibility is reasonably assured.
The Company uses the above criteria to determine whether revenue can be
recognized and therefore believes that the issuance of SAB 101 does not have a
material impact on the Company's financial statements.
3. BORROWING ARRANGEMENT
In August 2000, the Company's revolving credit facility was increased
from $4.0 million to $4.5 million through an amendment to the existing
agreement.

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 distribution 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 $158 million.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
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'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 with Oakhurst.
Available cash that is transferred to Oakhurst is reflected as an addition to
advances made to Oakhurst.
At November 30, 2000, SCPI's debt consisted primarily of revolving debt
of approximately $3.3 million. The revolving debt agreement has a term of three
years, expiring in May 2003 and was amended in August 2000 to provide for a
maximum facility of $4.5 million, subject to a borrowing base.
Management believes that the revolving debt 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 margin and no significant change in historical levels of customer
receivables or vendor credit.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
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 November 30, 2000, there had been no material changes in the
Company's financial condition from February 29, 2000, discussed in Item 7 of the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2000.
-8-
<PAGE> 9
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, headquartered in McKeesport, Pennsylvania. In the third quarter of
fiscal 2001, Steel City Products expanded its distribution business to include
lawn and garden products, partly in response to the growing needs of certain
customers.
THREE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER
30, 1999
Sales in the third quarter of the current year decreased by $65,000
compared with the third quarter of the prior year. Sales to existing automotive
customers decreased by $610,000 due to the loss of a customer in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2000, customers which changed suppliers or are purchasing
items directly from the manufacturer and to competitive pressures faced by
smaller customers. Sales to new automotive customers totaled approximately
$365,000 in the third quarter, and sales of non-food pet products increased by
$176,000 in the third quarter compared with the same period in the prior year.
Sales of lawn and garden products, which commenced late in the third quarter of
the current fiscal year, were approximately $4,000.
Despite the small decrease in sales in the current year period, there
was an improvement in gross margins, so that gross profit increased slightly
compared with the prior year.
Operating, selling and administrative expenses reflected a decrease of
$10,000 in the third quarter compared with the prior year due to higher payroll
and promotional expenses which were offset by reduced general office expenses.
Interest expense increased by $20,000 due to higher borrowing levels in
the current year.
NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30,
1999
For the first nine months of the current fiscal year, sales increased
by $12,000 compared with the first nine months of the prior year. Sales to
existing automotive customers decreased by $1.7 million due primarily to the
loss of a customer in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 and to customers which
have changed suppliers or are purchasing directly from the manufacturer. Some of
the loss in sales to existing customers was offset by sales to new customers
which totaled $1.4 million in the first nine months of the current year.
Sales of non-food pet products totaled $1.9 million, an increase of
$276,000 compared with the first nine months of the prior year, due primarily to
increased sales to existing customers.
Other income increased by approximately $184,000 due primarily to the
expiration of the maturity dates of certain Creditor Notes associated with
SCPI's former Retail Division.
Although sales were essentially unchanged from the prior year period,
there was an improvement of approximately 1% in gross margins due to product mix
and certain other factors, so that gross profits increased by $169,000 compared
with the prior year.
Interest expense increased by $70,000 due to higher borrowing levels in
the current year.

<PAGE> 10
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
SCPI is exposed to certain market risks from transactions that are
entered into during the normal course of business. The Company's policies do not
permit active trading of, or speculation in, derivative financial instruments.
The Company's primary market risk exposure relates to interest rate risk. SCPI
manages its interest rate risk by attempting to balance its exposure between
fixed and variable rates while attempting to minimize its interest costs.
A change in the interest rate of 1% would have changed interest expense
by approximately $7,500 and $25,000 for the three and nine month periods ended
November 30, 2000.
