</TABLE> 
Net sales for the six months and second  quarter of fiscal  year 1997  increased
$8.7  million,  or 11.1%,  and $3.7  million,  or 9.5%,  respectively,  over the
comparable  periods  of  fiscal  year  1996.  Shelving  sales  were flat for the
quarter.  Drawer slide sales  increased  by $3.2  million for the  quarter.  The
increased  sales  is due to the  Company's  expanding  share  of the  precision,
Euro-style  and  utility  drawer  slide  markets.  Hardware  product  line sales
increased during the quarter by $.3 million from last year, due to more sales of
kitchen and bath  products  manufactured  by Feeny.  Furniture  component  sales
increased during the quarter by $.2 million compared to last year.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of sales was 74.8% of sales for the first six months and 75.3% of sales for
the second  quarter of fiscal year 1997 compared to 76.2% and 76.1% of sales for
the first six  months  and second  quarter  of fiscal  year 1996,  respectively.
Decreases  in raw  material  prices and larger  sales  volumes  absorbing  fixed
overhead costs accounted for the majority of the improvement.

Selling  and  administrative  expenses  for the six  months  was  16.4% of sales
compared  to 16.8%  for the same  period  last year and for the  second  quarter
increased  to 16.6% of sales from  16.2% for the same  quarter  last  year.  The
increase as a percentage of sales for the quarter was mainly due to increases in
administrative expenses such as the Michigan single business tax.

Other Expenses

Interest  expense was $517,881 for the quarter ended  December 31, 1996 compared
to $594,740 for the quarter  ended  December  31, 1995.  The decrease was due to
lower borrowing  levels and lower interest rates.  Interest  expense for the six
months ended December 31, 1996 was $1,021,188 compared to $1,182,296 last year.

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

Income Taxes

The effective  tax rate for the six months and quarter ended  December 31, 1996,
was 36.1% and 36.4%  compared  to 37.8% and 36.7% for the six months and quarter
ended  December 31, 1995.  The effective tax rates are slightly  lower in fiscal
year 1997 due to foreign and state tax rates.

Income from Continuing Operations

Income from  continuing  operations  were at record levels of $4,161,320 for the
first six months and  $1,814,728  for the second  quarter of 1997.  Earnings per
share from  continuing  operations  for the six months  increased  61.4% to $.71
compared  to $.44 last year and income per share for the  quarter  rose 29.2% to
$.31  compared  to $.24 in the  second  quarter  of last  year.  The  Company is
continuing to pursue the sale of this operation.

The Company  announced on December  18, 1996 that the  intended  buyer for Modar
withdrew it's offer.  Modar will continue to operate at low levels until the end
of the third quarter or a new buyer is secured.  The Company is not anticipating
a material impact due to the intended buyer of Modar  withdrawing its offer, but
there may be additional costs incurred in concluding an eventual sale or phasing
out of the operation.

Income from Discontinued Operation

The estimated loss on discontinued  operation  recorded at June 30, 1996 include
an estimate of the  operating  loss until the Roll-it  facility is disposed  of.
There was no income, or loss, recorded on discontinued operation for the quarter
ended December 31, 1996.  For the second  quarter of last year the  discontinued
operation lost $366,867, or $0.06 per share.

Net Income

Net  income of  $4,161,320  for the six  months  was 4.8% of sales  compared  to
$2,567,458,  for the first six months last year which was 3.3% of sales. For the
quarter  ended  December  31, 1996 net income was  $1,814,728  which was 4.3% of
sales  compared to $1,059,747  which was 2.8% of sales for the second quarter of
last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Company's  net cash  position  increased  during  the first  six  months to
$743,329 from $499,058 at June 30, 1996. Net cash from  operating  activities of
$4,836,237 was positively  affected by the increased net income and depreciation
expense but  negatively  affected by the impact on accounts  receivable of sales
terms offered to customers and higher sales.
The  decrease  in accrued  restructuring  costs is due mainly to the  payment of
severance.

Capital expenditures were $2,739,039 for the six months ended December 31, 1996.
The Company is currently forecasting capital expenditures to be approximately $8
million  for the fiscal  year.  The  Company  had total debt of  $35,400,000  at
December 31, 1996,  an increase of $400,000  from total debt of  $35,000,000  at
June 30, 1996. It is estimated that debt levels will decrease in the second half
of the fiscal year.  Anticipated  cash flow from operations  will  substantially
fund working capital, capital expenditures and dividend payments.
