                                   (Unaudited)


Note 1 - Basis of Financial Statement Preparation

The  accompanying  unaudited  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements and
related notes have been prepared  pursuant to the rules and  regulations  of the
Security  and  Exchange  Commission.  The  information  furnished  reflects  all
adjustments  which are,  in the  opinion  of  management,  necessary  for a fair
statement  of  results  of  operations.  Interim  results  are  not  necessarily
indicative  of the  results  for  the  year  end  and are  subject  to year  end
adjustments,  and audit by independent public accountants.  The balance sheet at
June 30,  1995,  has been taken from the audited  financial  statements  at that
date. The condensed  consolidated  financial statements and notes should be read
in conjunction with the Company's 1995 annual report.

Note 2 - Common Stock and Per Share Information

Income  per  share is  determined  based on  weighted  average  number of shares
outstanding during each period.

Common  stock  is $2 par - shares  authorized  6,000,000  of  common  stock  and
4,000,000 of Class B common  stock.  Shares  issued:  3,311,146 of common stock;
2,569,923 of Class B stock at December 31, 1995;  and  3,295,496 of common stock
and 2,584,418 of Class B common stock at June 30, 1995.

Note 3 - Inventories

Inventories  are  valued  at the  lower of FIFO  (first-in,  first-out)  cost or
market.  The Company has one subsidiary on LIFO (last-in,  first-out)  cost. The
Company has  decided to change to FIFO cost for this  subsidiary  during  fiscal
year 1996. The inventory  value at this subsidiary at June 30, 1995 was $418,000
lower than it would have been under FIFO.

Inventories are summarized as follows:

                                         Dec. 31, 1995             June 30, 1995

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales

Net sales for the second  quarter and six months of fiscal  year 1996  decreased
$1.3  million,  or 3.3%,  and $4.3  million,  or  4.8%,  respectively,  over the
comparable periods of fiscal year 1995.  Shelving sales decreased by $.2 million
for the quarter,  due primarily to the competitive retail markets which demanded
lower prices for our products.  Drawer slide sales  decreased by $.2 million for
the quarter. Continued increases in the precision drawer slides did not offset
the decrease in sales of utility slides. Store fixture and hardware product line
sales  decreased  during the quarter by $.2 million from last year, due to lower
sales of  hardware  products  by Knape & Vogt  Canada  in the  Canadian  market.
Furniture  component sales decreased  during the quarter by $.7 million compared
to last year as Modar  concentrated  on  producing  wood  products for Hirsh and
Knape & Vogt. Based on internal forecasts, the Company anticipates that sales
may match the results of the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 1995.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of sales was 77.0% of sales for the second  quarter  and 76.3% of sales for
the first six months of fiscal  year 1996  compared  to 75.5% and 74.7% of sales
for the second  quarter and first six months of fiscal year 1995,  respectively.
Discounting of prices to retail  customers and increases in raw material  prices
accounted  for the majority of the increase in cost as a percentage of sales for
the quarter.  The impact of recent decreases in steel prices should reduce costs
as a percentage of sales during the second half of fiscal year 1996.

Selling and  administrative  expenses for the quarter  decreased  $384,683,  and
decreased as a percentage of sales to 17.2% from 17.5% last year,  mainly due to
decreases in  administrative  expenses such as the Michigan single business tax.
Selling and administrative  expense for the six months decreased  $378,388,  but
increased to 17.3% of sales compared to 16.9% in fiscal year 1995.

Other Expenses

Interest  expense was $594,740 for the quarter ended  December 31, 1995 compared
to $601,835 for the quarter  ended  December  31, 1994.  The decrease was due to
lower borrowing  levels.  Interest expense for the six months ended December 31,
1995 was $1,193,145 compared to $1,181,783 last year.

Income Taxes

The effective  tax rate for the quarter and six months ended  December 31, 1995,
was 37.6% and 38.4%  compared  to 34.4% and 36.2% for the quarter and six months
ended  December 31, 1994. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of fiscal
year 1995 was lower than  normal  due to  reductions  in  Illinois  state  taxes
relating to the Hirsh Company.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (Continued)


Net Income

Net  income of  $1,059,747  for the  second  quarter  was 28.4%  lower  than the
$1,480,613  reported a year ago. For the six months ended  December 31, 1995 net
income was $2,567,458 which is 35.7% lower than the $3,989,971  reported for the
same  period  last year.  Earnings  per share for the quarter and six months was
$.18 and $.44, respectively, compared to $.25 and $.68 for the same periods last
year.  Net income  was 2.6% and 3.0% of sales for the  quarter  and six  months,
respectively.
The decrease in net income was mainly due to higher cost of sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Company's  net cash  position  decreased  during  the first  six  months to
$333,557 from $604,106 at June 30, 1995. Net cash from operating  activities was
positively affected by decreases in accounts receivable, but partially offset by
an increase in accounts payable.  Accounts receivable balances were lower at the
end of December  than at the end of June  because  sales in December  were lower
than in June.  Payable balances  increased  because purchases related to January
1996  production and sales which were higher than the June purchases  related to
July 1995 production and sales.

Capital expenditures were $2,952,611 for the six months ended December 31, 1995.
The Company is currently forecasting capital expenditures to be approximately $8
million  for the fiscal  year.  The  Company  had total debt of  $35,000,000  at
December 31, 1995, a decrease of $800,000 from total debt of $35,800,000 at June
30, 1995. It is estimated  that debt levels will remain at  approximately  these
levels in the second  half of the  fiscal  year due to the  increase  in capital
expenditures.

The Company's  balance sheet remained strong with working capital of $45,805,444
and current ratio of 5.9 to 1 at December 31, 1995,  compared to the $45,796,753
of working capital and a 4.4 to 1 current ratio at June 30, 1995.
