Consolidation Policy
- --------------------
   The condensed financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, the
accounts of Katy Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (Katy) in which it has a 
greater than 50% interest.  The condensed consolidated financial statements 
at June 30, 1996 and for the three and six month periods then ended are 
unaudited and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of 
management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition and 
results of operations.  Interim figures are subject to year-end audit 
adjustments and may not be indicative of results to be realized for the 
entire year. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read 
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, 
together with management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and 
results of operations, contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K 
for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Inventories

                                        =======        =======

Earnings Per Share
- ------------------
   Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents 
outstanding during the period.  Common stock equivalents, in the form of stock
options, have been included in the calculation of weighted average shares 
outstanding under the treasury stock method.

Stock-Based Compensation
- ------------------------
   In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," which is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 1996.
SFAS No. 123 requires expanded disclosure of stock-based compensation 
arrangements with employees.  Companies are permitted to continue to apply APB
Opinion No. 25, which recognizes compensation cost based on the intrinsic value
of equity instruments awarded.  Katy will continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25
to its stock-based compensation awards to employees and will disclose the
required pro forma effect on net income and earnings per share.


(2) Nonrecurring Items

    Included in Other, net during the first half of 1996 was a gain of 
$4,914,000 resulting from the sale of Union Pacific Corporation common stock 
during the first quarter of 1996. 
    
    On June 30, 1995 the Company sold one-half of its interest in Schon & 
Cie, AG (Schon), reducing its interest to 37.5%. In connection with the sale,
the Company recorded a gain of $4,920,000, reflecting the reversal of
previously recorded losses of Schon, and a tax benefit of $3,000,000 associated
with the transaction. Losses from the operations of Schon recorded in the first
and second quarters of 1995 were $2,124,000 and $1,658,000, respectively.

    During the second quarter, 1996, Schon acquired J. Sandt AG, a major
competitor in the same geographical area.  The transaction reduced Katy's
interest in Schon to 27.6%.  The transaction had no effect on Katy's results
for the period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 1996
- --------------------------------
    Following are summaries of sales and operating income for Katy's operating
segments for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995:

                                                       Sales

Industrial and 
  Consumer Manufacturing              1,283       1,241      9.1       10.5

Machinery Manufacturing                 729          34      8.0        0.2


   The Distribution and Service Group's sales increase was due to increases in
the electronic components and rerolled metals areas.  The increase in the 
Group's operating income was a result of this increased volume and margin
improvements.

   The increased sales of the Industrial and Consumer Manufacturing Group was
due primarily to the acquisition of Gemtex in August 1995, partially offset by
the sale of Moldan in December 1995.  Sales from existing operations increased 
due to increases in sales of sanitary maintenance supplies.  Lower margins 
resulting from a change in product mix accounted for the lower increase in 
operating income. 

   The Machinery Manufacturing Group's sales decrease results primarily from
the absence of sales of Schon and B.M. Root in 1996.  The improvement in 
operating income in 1996 was primarily due to the absence of losses from Schon.

   The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily 
due to the absence of Schon.

   Interest expense declined due to lower debt levels, while interest income 
increased due to higher cash levels resulting from the sale of Syratech stock
and Union Pacific stock. 

   Reversal of previously recorded losses represents the reversal of losses of
Schon, the investment in which was fully written-off in the second quarter of
1995.

   The tax benefit in 1995 results from the restoration of losses from Schon
not requiring tax effect and the related tax benefit of $3,000,000.

   Equity in income of unconsolidated subsidiaries in the 1995 period includes
income from Katy's interest in Syratech which was sold in December 1995.


Six Months Ended June 30, 1996

   Following are summaries of sales and operating income for the six months 
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 by industry segment:

Machinery Manufacturing               1,488      (779)      8.8       (2.2)


   The increase in the Distribution and Service Group's sales was due to 
increases in sales of electronic components and rerolled metals and to the 
addition of GC Thorsen at the end of the first quarter of 1995.

   The increased sales of the Industrial and Consumer Manufacturing Group was
due primarily to the acquisition of Gemtex in August 1995, partially offset by 
the sale of Moldan in December 1995.  Sales from existing operations increased 
due to increases in sales of sanitary maintenance supplies.  Lower margins 
resulting from a change in product mix accounted for the lower increase in 
operating income. 

   The Machinery Manufacturing Group's sales decrease results primarily from
the absence of sales of Schon and B.M. Root in 1996.  The improvement in
operating income in 1996 was primarily due to the exclusion of losses from
Schon.  

   The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily
due to the absence of Schon, offset by the addition of GC Thorsen in the second
quarter of 1995.

   Interest expense decreased due to lower debt levels, while interest income
increased due to higher cash levels resulting from the sale of Syratech stock 
and Union Pacific stock. 

   Reversal of previously recorded losses represents the reversal of losses of
Schon, the investment in which was fully written-off in the second quarter of
1995.

   Other, net in 1996 includes a $4,914,000 gain on the sale of Union Pacific
stock.

   The tax benefit in 1995 results from the restoration of losses from Schon
not requiring tax effect and the related tax benefit of $3,000,000.

   Equity in income of unconsolidated subsidiaries in the 1995 period includes
income from Katy's interest in Syratech which was sold in December 1995.    


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Combined cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities decreased to
$47,298,000 on June 30, 1996 compared to $60,354,000 on December 31, 1995 
primarily due to the repurchase of Katy common stock and to increases in
working capital needs caused by higher sales and seasonal factors.

   Katy expects to commit an additional $3,000,000 for capital projects during 
the remainder of 1996.  Funding for these expenditures and for working capital 
needs is expected to be accomplished through use of available cash and 
internally generated funds.  The Company also continues to search for 
appropriate acquisition candidates, and may obtain all or a portion of the 
financing for future acquisitions through the incurrence of additional debt, 
which the Company believes it can obtain at reasonable terms and pricing.

   At June 30, 1996, Katy had short and long-term indebtedness for money 
borrowed of $9,581,000.  Total debt was 7% of total debt plus equity at June
30, 1996.  Katy has a secured short-term line of credit with The Northern Trust
Company in the amount of $20,000,000 which it expects to use principally for 
letters of credit.

   In August 1995, Katy's Board of Directors authorized the Company to 
repurchase up to 400,000 shares of its common stock over the subsequent twelve
months in open market transactions.  In January 1996, the board authorized an 
additional 500,000 shares to be repurchased.  In connection therewith, Katy 
repurchased 155,600 shares in the quarter ended June 30, 1996 at a total cost
of $2,089,000.  Subsequent to June 30, 1996 through August 13, 1996 the Company
purchased an additional 22,700 shares at a cost of $290,900, bringing the total
shares repurchased under the authorization to 846,700.  The company will
finalize this program by year-end 1996.
  
   The Company and certain of its current and former direct and indirect 
corporate predecessors, subsidiaries and divisions have been identified by the 
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environmental agencies 
and private parties as potentially responsible parties ("PRP's") at a number of
hazardous waste disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, 
Compensation and Liability Act ("Superfund") and equivalent state laws and, as 
such, may be liable for the cost of cleanup and other remedial activities at 
these sites.  Responsibility for cleanup and other remedial activities at a 
Superfund site is typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula.  
The means of determining allocation among PRPs is generally set forth in a 
written agreement entered into by the PRPs at a particular site.  An allocation
share assigned to a PRP is often based on the PRP's volumetric contribution of 
waste to a site.  The Company is also involved in remedial response and 
voluntary environmental clean-up at a number of other sites which are not 
currently the subject of any legal proceedings under Superfund, including 
certain of its current and formerly owned manufacturing facilities.  Based on 
its estimate of allocation of liability among PRPs, the probability that other 
PRPs, many of whom are large, solvent, public companies, will fully pay the 
costs apportioned to them, currently available information concerning the scope
of contamination, estimated remediation costs, estimated legal fees and other 
factors, the Company believes that it has an adequate accrual for all known 
liabilities at June 30, 1996.  Although management believes that these actions 
in the aggregate are not likely to have a material adverse effect on Katy's 
consolidated financial position or results of operations, further costs could
be significant and will be recorded as a charge to operations when such costs
become probable and reasonably estimable.

    Katy also has a number of product liability and workers' compensation
claims pending against it and its subsidiaries.  With respect to the product
liability and workers' compensation claims, Katy has provided for its share of
expected losses beyond the applicable insurance coverage, including those
incurred but not reported. Such accruals are developed using currently
available claim information.  The incurred but not reported component of the
liability was developed using actuarial techniques.
