Procedures also have been established to charge interest on all intercompany
loans within the Industries group of companies.  Such loans currently bear
interest at the prime rate.  The Company's net intercompany interest expense for
the first three months of 1994 totaled $1.4 million as compared to $2.5 million

ITEM 2.



            MANAGEMENT'S NARRATIVE ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Comparison of First Quarter 1994 to First Quarter 1993
- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------


      The Company reported a consolidated net loss of $1.9 million in the first
quarter of 1994 compared with a consolidated net loss of $34.4 million in the
1993 first quarter.

      Consolidated net sales improved 13.5 percent in the 1994 quarter to $591
million, due to a 9.8 percent increase in average selling price and a 3.7
percent increase in volume.  First quarter 1994 operating profit of $13.6
million represented a significant improvement from the $36.7 million operating
loss reported in the 1993 quarter.  The principal reason for the improvement was
the increase in average selling price per ton.  Operating cost per ton was held
relatively constant despite being negatively impacted by the severe weather in
January and underperformance in plate operations.

      During the first quarter of 1994, the Company redeemed all $75 million of
outstanding Series O, P and Q First Mortgage Bonds and acquired the equity
interest in the operating lease of the No. 2 Basic Oxygen Furnace Shop
continuous casters for $83 million.  In connection with such purchase, the
Company recorded $63 million of debt.  In March, the Company called
approximately $47.5 million of caster-related debt for prepayment on May 6,
which debt was prepaid on such date.

      Inland Steel Industries, Inc., made capital contributions totaling $110
million to the Company during the 1994 first quarter compared with capital
contributions of $75 million in the year-ago period.

Subsequent Event
- - ----------------
 
      In early May, the Company called all remaining debt related to its
continuous caster facility (approximately $48 million) for prepayment on
November 7, 1994.
