The Company uses the LIFO method in inventory valuation for approximately 70% of
inventories  where an actual  valuation can be made only at the end of each year
based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly,  interim LIFO
calculations  must  necessarily be based on  management's  estimates of expected
year-end  inventory  levels and costs.  Since  these are  subject to many forces
beyond management's  control,  interim results are subject to the final year-end
LIFO inventory valuation. The




<PAGE>



Company  estimates the annual  adjustment  for LIFO and allocates it to quarters
based on actual inflation  experienced in a quarter as it relates to anticipated
inflation for the year.

Item 2.           Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
                  Operations and Financial Condition.

Guardsman Acquisition Status
The  Company  has made a cash  tender  offer for all of the  stock of  Guardsman
Products,  Inc. for $23.00 per share or approximately $235 million.  Commitments
for bank financing are in place and Guardsman's three largest shareholders,  who
collectively own approximately 50 percent of its outstanding  stock, have agreed
to the tender offer.  The waiting period under the  Hart-Scott-Rodino  Antitrust
Act has expired as of March 23, 1996 without  further  action being taken by the
Department  of  Justice  or  Federal  Trade  Commission.   The  closing  of  the
acquisition,  including the  consummation  of the  follow-up  short form merger,
occurred on April 8, 1996.

Guardsman's  revenues for 1995 were $251  million,  approximately  75 percent of
Lilly's 1995 sales. Operating earnings of Guardsman were $15 million,  returning
six percent on sales. Approximately 80 percent of its revenues were derived from
businesses  similar  to  Lilly's  -  the  manufacture  and  sale  of  customized
industrial  coatings.  The  remaining  20 percent of its  business  is  consumer
oriented  -  the  manufacture  and  sale  of  fine  furniture  polishes,  fabric
protectors, paint removers and a variety of other consumer products.

Guardsman  is an  excellent  fit with  Lilly.  It is strong in certain  domestic
markets  where we are less so, and we are well  established  where they are not.
Internationally, Guardsman is successful in Canada and the United Kingdom, while
we are established in Canada, Germany and the Far East. Guardsman also brings us
excellent  technology.  The  combination of both  companies'  core  technologies
should yield substantial benefits,  including the expansion of our key strategic
markets.

We estimate  additional interest expense on the debt incurred in connection with
the  acquisition  to be about $20 million  annually for the next  several  years
until  we can  materially  reduce  these  borrowings.  Against  that sum we have
Guardsman's operating earnings of approximately $15 million,  which we expect to
maintain, plus at least $20 million in annual pre-tax expenses that we expect to
save over the next twelve to  twenty-four  months as a result of merging the two
companies.  There are a number of areas where  management  believes that synergy
will enable the Company to realize  expense  reductions,  including raw material
and inventory  costs savings and the  elimination of redundant  expenditures.  A
portion of these expense reductions will be




<PAGE>



realized  when  Guardsman's  headquarters  is closed.  There is a 10% overlap in
employee  count of the  combined  companies.  However,  the  Company  intends to
maintain  a base of  qualified  people  in order to build  THE NEW LILLY for the
future.  There can, however, be no assurance as to the actual expense reductions
which the Company will be able to accomplish.

The  Guardsman  acquisition  will be a major  step  forward  for  Lilly  and its
shareholders.  It will  move  Lilly  into the  ranks of the  largest  industrial
coatings  companies in North America,  strengthen  Lilly's  presence in existing
markets,  and give the Company new technologies,  thereby expanding the value we
bring to customers.  Shareholders should especially benefit as we will not issue
any new shares to obtain Guardsman.  In effect,  shareholders will get the added
benefit of owning  another  profitable  company almost as large as Lilly without
any dilution of their equity in the combined company.

First Quarter Results
Sales for the first  quarter  ended  February 29, 1996 were down nine percent at
$73.3 million compared with $80.4 million this time last year. Net earnings were
$3.5 million, or $0.15 per share, compared with $4.6 million, or $0.20 per share
last year. We suffer more by comparison  than by business  reality.  Last year's
first quarter was  exceptional  - nearly nine percent  greater in sales than our
previous best first  quarter.  This year's first quarter  virtually  matched the
sales of the first  quarter of 1994 (at that time our best ever  first  quarter)
and exceeded the earnings of that quarter by more than 11 percent.

Domestic sales were generally lower,  reflecting lower manufacturing  levels and
the  weakness in the U.S.  balance of trade over the past several  quarters.  By
contrast,  international  results improved while  contributing  approximately 16
percent to consolidated sales.

A regular  quarterly  dividend of eight cents per common share will be paid July
1,  1996 to  shareholders  of  record  on June 10,  1996.  This  marks the 229th
consecutive dividend payment.

For the balance of 1996 we  anticipate  an improved  sales trend apart from what
Guardsman will contribute.  In addition our new plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky
is just about completed and this will prove particularly beneficial for our coil
coating  operations.  We have also made  progress  from  continued  research  to
identify lower cost raw materials which will improve profit margins.
