NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
LILLY INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MAY 31, 2000

NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been  included.  The results of  operations  for the three and six month periods
ended May 31, 2000 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the results for the full
year.

The  balance  sheet at  November  30,  1999 has been  derived  from the  audited
financial  statements  at that date but does not include all of the  information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting  principles for complete
financial statements.

For further  information,  refer to the  consolidated  financial  statements and
footnotes  thereto  included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended November 30, 1999.

NOTE B--INVENTORIES

The principal components of inventory are summarized as follows (in thousands):

                                             =======       =======

The Company uses the LIFO method of inventory valuation for approximately 61% of
inventories.  For these inventories, 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 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 C--SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company  operates  within three business  segments which serve three end-use
markets:  wood coatings;  metal  coatings;  and  composites and glass  coatings.
Products sold to these markets have similar economic characteristics, production
processes,  distribution  methods, and regulatory  environments.  Based on these
similarities, the Company's products are aggregated into one reportable segment,
Industrial Coatings and Specialty Chemicals.

Net sales of  Industrial  Coatings and  Specialty  Chemical  products by end-use
markets are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE F--NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD

Effective  December 1, 1999,  the  Company  adopted the  American  Institute  of
Certified  Public  Accountants'   (AICPA)  Statement  of  Position  (SOP)  98-5,
"Reporting  for the Costs of Start-Up  Activities."  The SOP  requires  start-up
costs  capitalized  prior to  December  1, 1999 to be written off and any future
start-up costs to be expensed as incurred.  The unamortized  balance of start-up
costs was  written  off as of  December  1, 1999.  The effect of this  change in
accounting principle on consolidated earnings was immaterial.

NOTE G--SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On June 26, 2000, the Company  announced it had entered into a definitive merger
agreement with The Valspar Corporation  ("Valspar") whereby Valspar will acquire
all  outstanding  shares of the  Company's  Class A and Class B common stock for
$31.75 per share in cash, and the Company will become a wholly-owned  subsidiary
of Valspar.

The merger is subject to the approval of the Company's  stockholders  as well as
regulatory and other customary closing conditions.  The merger is not subject to
a financing condition.

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

Results of Operations - Three and six month periods ended May 31, 2000

The Company's net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased by $5.0 million
or 2.9% to $176.4 million  compared to second quarter of 1999. Net sales for the
six month period ended May 31, 2000 increased by $19.9 million or 6.3% to $337.4
million  compared to the same period in 1999.  Sales for the three and six month
periods ended May 31, 2000 showed continued growth in most markets.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2000 was 38.4% of net sales, representing
a decrease of 0.8 percentage points over the same period a year ago. For the six
month  period  ended May 31,  2000,  gross  profit was  37.6%,  a decline of 1.2
percentage   points  compared  to  last  year.  The  declines  in  gross  profit
percentages are directly related to the rapid cost escalation in petroleum-based
raw materials, and transition start-up costs associated with increased capacity.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods
ended  May 31,  2000  increased  by 4.0%  and 8.0%  respectively,  over the same
periods in 1999.  These increases are due to higher selling  expenses related to
growth in international markets, increased freight and marketing initiatives.

Operating  income  for the  three  and six  month  periods  ended  May 31,  2000
decreased  by 4.8% and 7.7%  respectively,  over the same periods a year ago, as
increased raw material costs and selling,  general and  administrative  expenses
offset increases in net sales.

Net  interest  expense  for the three and six month  periods  ended May 31, 2000
increased by 5.3% and 5.0%  respectively,  over the same periods a year ago, due
to slightly higher average interest rates and debt levels.

Net income for the three and six month periods  ended May 31, 2000  decreased by
5.6% and 10.4%  respectively,  over the same periods in 1999,  due to higher raw
material costs and selling,  general and administrative  expenses. The effective
tax rate remained at 41%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash  provided by  operating  activities  for the six month period ended May 31,
2000  increased  by $12.8  million  compared to the same period a year ago.  The
increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily due to changes in
working capital and non-current liabilities.

Cash used by  investing  activities  for the six month period ended May 31, 2000
decreased  by $3.0  million  compared to the same  period a year ago,  which was
primarily due to lower capital  expenditures of $1.3 million,  and a decrease in
payments for acquired businesses of $1.5 million.

Cash  provided by  financing  activities  for the six month period ended May 31,
2000 decreased by $10.7 million over the same period a year ago primarily due to
lower increases in borrowings as compared to the same period in 1999.

The Company  believes funds available from internal and external sources will be
sufficient to meet the liquidity needs of the Company.

Environmental

The  Company's  operations,  like  those  of most  companies  in the  industrial
coatings and specialty chemicals industry, are subject to regulations related to
maintaining or improving the quality of the environment. Such regulations, along
with the Company's own internal  compliance  efforts,  have  required,  and will
continue to require, ongoing expenditures. Spending for environmental compliance
is not  anticipated  to be material to the  Company's  financial  position.  The
Company  has  been  notified  that it is a  potentially  responsible  party  for
clean-up   costs  with   respect  to  several   government   investigations   at
independently-operated  waste  disposal  sites  previously  used by the Company.
Management has accrued,  as appropriate,  for these  environmental  liabilities.
Management believes the liabilities  associated with these sites will not have a
material adverse effect on its operating results or financial position.
