                                             $ 48,681           $ 47,546
                                             ========           ========

The Company uses the LIFO method in inventory valuation for approximately 82% 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 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.

NOTE D--RESTRUCTURING

In 1996 the Company  implemented  plans for the  consolidation  of manufacturing
facilities related to the Guardsman acquisition. These plans include the closure
of some Lilly and Guardsman plants and workforce  reductions.  It is anticipated
these plans will be completed by the end of fiscal 1997.

Costs  associated  with the planned  closure of Lilly  facilities  and workforce
reductions  were recorded in the 1996 second quarter as a  restructuring  charge
totaling  $9,607,000,  which reduced net income by $5,284,000 or $.23 per share.
The components of the  restructuring  charge and amounts paid or charged against
these reserves are as follows (in thousands):

                                               Costs Paid       Ending

Costs associated with the planned closure of Guardsman  facilities and workforce
reductions  were  recorded as  liabilities  in the opening  balance sheet of the
combined entity as of the acquisition  date. The components of these liabilities
and  amounts  paid  or  charged  against  these  reserves  are  as  follows  (in

NOTE E--ACQUISITION

On April 8, 1996 the Company  acquired all the  outstanding  shares of Guardsman
Products,  Inc.  ("Guardsman")  for  $235,000,000  in  cash.  The  Company  used
$275,000,000  of senior  secured credit  facilities to finance the  acquisition,
pay-off existing debt and to pay related expenses.  The acquisition was recorded
using the purchase method and the consolidated  financial statements include the
results of operations of Guardsman since the date of acquisition.


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

Second quarter sales and net income were records for a second  quarter.  For the
three months ended May 31, sales rose 17% to $154.2 million compared with $131.7
million for the same quarter last year.  Second quarter net income  increased to
$7.4 million,  up 25% from last year, before last year's  restructuring  charge.
Net income  per share  increased  to  32(cent)  from  26(cent)  last year,  on a
comparable basis.

The 1997 second  quarter was the best second  quarter in the Company's  history.
Sales, operating income, net income and net income per share each set new second
quarter  records.  Earnings  improved  due  mainly to higher  sales and  greater
manufacturing   efficiencies  realized  from  a  combination  of  new  equipment
installations  and  closings  of older  plants  during the past  twelve  months.
Further cost  reductions  are  anticipated  as new plants in  Charlotte,  NC and
Bowling Green, KY move toward full production in the next six to nine months.

For the six-month  period ended May 31, sales of $296.4 million were up 45% from
last year. Net income of $12.1 million and net income per share of 52(cent) were
up  29%  and  27%  ,  respectively,   from  last  year's  results,   before  the
restructuring  charge.  Sales gains largely reflected ownership of Guardsman for
the full six  months of 1997  compared  with two  months in 1996.  Gross  profit
margin improved 2.6 percentage  points compared to last year due to better sales
mix and manufacturing efficiencies.

Second quarter results and improved financial  position were encouraging.  Total
debt of $251  million  at May 31,  1997 is $24  million  lower  than a year ago.
Current  strategies  for enhanced  shareholder  value include  paying down debt,
consolidating older plants, opening new facilities, developing new technologies,
and expanding  our presence  overseas.  The Company now has  operations in eight
foreign  countries,  having  recently  opened  a Far East  headquarters  site in
Singapore.  A new plant in Ireland will be producing  product by the end of this
year's fourth quarter.

The Board of Directors  declared a quarterly cash dividend of 8(cent) per common
share,  payable on October 1, 1997,  to  shareholders  of record at the close of
business on  September  10, 1997.  This marks the  Company's  234th  consecutive
quarterly cash dividend.

                       FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT

         THIS  FIRST  AMENDMENT  made as of the 2nd day of April,  1997,  by and
among LILLY  INDUSTRIES,  INC., an Indiana  corporation  (the  "Borrower"),  the
LENDERS party hereto,  and NBD BANK,  N.A., a national banking  association,  as
agent for the Lenders hereunder (in such capacity, the "Agent");

                                   WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, as of April 8, 1996, the parties hereto entered into a certain
Credit Agreement (the "Agreement"); and

         WHEREAS,  the  Borrower  has  requested  an increase  in the  permitted
capital  expenditures  and certain changes to the definition of the fixed charge
coverage ratio and the Lenders have consented to such changes  subject to and as
provided in this First Amendment;

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the  premises,  and the  mutual
promises herein contained, the parties agree that the Agreement shall be, and it
hereby is, amended as provided herein and the parties further agree as follows:


                          PART I. AMENDATORY PROVISIONS

                             Section 1. Definitions

1.1      Defined Terms.

         1.1. Section 1.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by substituting the
following definition in lieu of the like existing definition:

                  "Fixed  Charge  Coverage  Ratio"  means,  with  respect to the
         Borrower and its Subsidiaries  determined on a Consolidated  basis, the
         ratio of (a)(i)  EBITDA,  minus (ii) Capital  Expenditures,  plus (iii)
         cash received from life insurance policies surrendered by the Borrower,
         plus (iv) for fiscal  years 1997 and 1998 only,  the lesser of (A) cash
         received  from the sale of any asset  classified  as a fixed or capital
         asset  on  a  Consolidated  balance  sheet  of  the  Borrower  and  its
         Subsidiaries  prepared in accordance  with GAAP or (B) Two Million Five
         Hundred Thousand Dollars  ($2,500,000),  to (b) the sum of (i) interest
         expense,   plus  (ii)  scheduled   principal  payments  in  respect  of
         Indebtedness  paid in such  period,  plus (iii) taxes  paid,  plus (iv)
         Rentals,  plus (v) dividends paid in such period,  all as determined on
         the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower by reference to the
         Financial Statements; in each


                                                        -1-

<PAGE>




         instance  determined for the trailing four (4) quarter period ending on
         the date of  determination,  except that for the fiscal  period  ending
         February  28,  1997,  the  foregoing  items (other than EBITDA and cash
         received pursuant to items (a)(iii) and (iv) above) shall be determined
         by   multiplying   each  of  the  same  as  determined  for  the  three
         quarter-annual period then ending by a factor of 1.333.

         Section 1.1 of the Agreement is hereby further  amended by amending the
definition  of  "Obligations"  by adding "or an Affiliate of a Lender"  after "a
Lender" in the fifth line thereof.


                              Section 5. Covenants

5.2.     Negative Covenants.

         5.2.17. Capital Expenditures. Section 5.2.17 of the Agreement is hereby
amended by increasing the Maximum Capital Expenditures (a) for fiscal year 1997,
from $10,000,000 to $20,000,000,  and (b) for fiscal year 1998, from $10,000,000
to an amount equal to (i) $10,000,000 plus (ii) the positive difference, if any,
of $20,000,000 minus the actual aggregate  Capital  Expenditures of Borrower and
its Subsidiaries during fiscal year 1997.

                               PART II. SCHEDULE 1

         The  Agreement  is hereby  amended by  substituting  Schedule 1 to this
First Amendment in lieu of Schedule I to the Agreement.


                           PART III. CONTINUING EFFECT

         All other terms, conditions, representations,  warranties and covenants
contained  in the  Agreement  shall  remain the same and shall  continue in full
force and effect. In consideration  hereof, the Borrower represents and warrants
that each  representation  and  warranty  set forth in the  Agreement  as hereby
amended,  remains  true  and  correct  as of the  date  hereof  in all  material
respects,  except  to the  extent  that  such  representation  and  warranty  is
expressly  intended  to apply  solely  to an  earlier  date and  except  changes
reflecting  transactions  permitted by the Agreement,  and that there  presently
exists  no  offsets,  counterclaims  or  defenses  to  the  performance  of  the
Obligations  (such  offsets,  counterclaims  or defenses,  if any,  being hereby
expressly  waived),  nor has there  occurred  any Default or  Unmatured  Default
thereunder,  and no Default or  Unmatured  Default  after  giving  effect to the
transactions  contemplated or otherwise  covered by this First Amendment,  is or
shall be occasioned thereby. The representations and warranties contained in the
Agreement  originally shall survive this First Amendment in their original form,
except  as  expressly   herein   modified,   and  shall  survive  as  continuing
representations  and  warranties  of the  Borrower.  Except as expressly  herein
provided, the Agreement and this First Amendment shall be interpreted,  wherever
possible, in a


                                                        -2-

manner  consistent  with one  another,  but in the  event of any  irreconcilable
inconsistency, this First Amendment shall control. Capitalized terms used herein
and not  specifically  herein  defined  shall have the meanings  ascribed in the
Agreement.


                      PART IV. INDEPENDENT CREDIT DECISION

         Each  Lender  acknowledges  that  it  has,  independently  and  without
reliance  upon the  Agent or any  other  Lender,  based  on such  documents  and
information  as it has  deemed  appropriate,  made its own credit  analysis  and
decision to enter into this First Amendment.


                          PART V. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

         Notwithstanding  anything  contained  in this  First  Amendment  to the
contrary,  the Lenders shall have no obligation under this First Amendment until

satisfaction of the Agent:

                  (a) Each of the  conditions  set forth in  Section  6.2 of the

                  performance of the Loan Documents,  as amended,  and any other
                  documents  provided  for in this First  Amendment to which the
                  Borrower is a party,  (B)  certifying the names of the officer
                  or  officers  authorized  to  sign,  respectively,   the  Loan
                  Documents, as amended, and any other documents provided for in
                  this First  Amendment  to which the  Borrower is a party,  and
                  containing  a  sample  of the  true  signature  of  each  such
                  officer,  and (C)  certifying  as  complete  and correct as to

                  Incorporation  or  By-Laws  have not been  amended  (except as
                  shown) since the previous delivery thereof to the Agent;

                           (iii)   An   Eighty-Six    Thousand   Seven   Hundred
                  Thirty-Seven and 50/100 Dollar  ($86,737.50) fee in respect of
                  this  First  Amendment  shall  be paid to the  Agent,  for the
                  benefit of each Lender in  accordance  with each  Lender's Pro
                  Rata Share, and

                                                        -3-

                  Borrower; and
