Net sales for the third  quarter  of  fiscal  year 1996  increased  .7% to $48.6
million  compared to $48.2  million for the same quarter last year.  This is the
first  quarter in fiscal  year 1996 that  showed an  increase  in sales over the
prior year. For the nine months ended March 31, 1996 sales were $134.1  million,
a decrease of 2.8% compared to $138.0 million for the same period in fiscal year
1995.  Drawer slide sales  increased to $15.2 million for the quarter from $14.5
million last year due to increases in sales of precision  drawer  slides.  Store
fixture sales increased  during the quarter by $.9 million  compared to the same
quarter  last  year  due to  demand  from  Roll-it's  largest  customer  who had
dedicated  more  funds to  refixturing  stores  than in past  years'  comparable
periods.  Hardware  product line sales decreased $.5 million for the quarter due
to decreased  sales of work systems.  Shelving sales  decreased to $21.9 million
during the  quarter  compared  to $22.5  million  last year,  due  primarily  to
decreased sales of wall mounted  shelving  products.  Furniture  component sales
decreased  slightly  during the quarter to $.8  million  compared to $.9 million
last year. Based on internal  forecasts,  the Company  anticipates that sales in
the fourth  quarter  may show a slight  decrease  compared to the same period in
fiscal 1995 when store fixture sales were very strong.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of sales was 75.5% of sales  for the third  quarter  and 76.0% of sales for
the first nine months of fiscal  year 1996  compared to 75.5% and 75.0% of sales
for the third  quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 1995,  respectively.
Price decreases in steel and particle board prices
<PAGE>
accounted for most of the  improvement  in cost as a percentage of sales for the
quarter  compared to the costs for the nine months.  The increase in the cost of
sales for the nine months  ended March 31, 1996  compared to last year is mainly
due to material  price  increases  throughout the last six months of fiscal year
1995 and the first six months of fiscal year 1996.

Selling and administrative expenses for the quarter increased as a percentage of
sales to 16.5% from 16.3% last year primarily due to selling expenses associated
with the  start-up of the retail  program at Feeny.  Selling and  administrative
expense  for  the  nine  months  decreased  by  $217,167  mainly  due  to  lower
administrative  expenses,  but  increased to as a  percentage  of sales to 17.0%
compared to 16.7% last year due to the lower sales levels in fiscal year 1996.

Other Expenses

Interest  expense  decreased  to $554,595  for the quarter  ended March 31, 1996
compared to $646,043 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 due to lower  interest
rates.  Interest expense for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 was $1,747,740
compared to $1,827,826 last year.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 1996, was
36.5% and 37.6%  compared  to 36.7% and 36.4% for the  quarter  and nine  months
ended March 31, 1995.  The effective tax rate for the nine months of fiscal year
1995 is slightly  lower due to a reduction in Illinois  state taxes  relating to
the Hirsh Company in the second quarter.

Net Income

Net  income  of  $2,098,837  for the  third  quarter  was 2.2%  higher  than the
$2,052,830  reported a year ago.  For the nine  months  ended March 31, 1996 net
income was $4,666,295 which is 22.8% lower than the $6,042,801  reported for the
same period last year.  Earnings  per share for the quarter and nine months were
$.35 and $.79,  respectively,  compared  to $.35 and $1.03 for the same  periods
last  year.  Net  income  was 4.3% and 3.5% of sales  for the  quarter  and nine
months,  respectively,  compared to 4.3% and 4.4% of sales for the same  periods
last year. Third quarter operations of the Company's store fixture manufacturing
division  resulted in an operating profit and net income of $80,000 and $58,000,
respectively,  compared to breakeven  results for the same period last year. The
increase in net income was mainly due to increased sales to the division's major
customer.  Compared  to the second  quarter of fiscal year 1996,  store  fixture
profit for the third quarter improved due to substantially increased sales along
with the  discontinuance  of the sale  price  discounting  in effect  during the
second quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Company's  net cash  position  increased  during the first  nine  months to
$1,010,791  from $604,106 at June 30, 1995. Net cash from  operating  activities
for the nine months  ended March 31,  1996 was  $1,764,078  better than the same
period last year due to the  decreases in the  accounts  payable and accruals in
fiscal  year 1995 that did not occur in fiscal  year 1996 due to  keeping  these
balances low at June 30, 1995.
<PAGE>
Capital  expenditures  were $5,756,953 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
The Company is currently forecasting capital expenditures to be approximately $8
million  for the fiscal  year with the  largest  expenditures  for drawer  slide
production equipment and sawing and edgebanding equipment. The Company had total
debt of  $36,700,000 at March 31, 1996, an increase of $900,000 from the balance
at June 30, 1995 of  $35,800,000  due to the high level of capital  expenditures
this fiscal year.
