        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                         SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998

1.  Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of McClain
Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, such Statements 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 items considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three month and six month periods ended
March 31, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending September 30, 1998. 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 September 30, 1997.

         Certain amounts reported in 1997 have been reclassified to conform to
the 1998 presentation.

2.  Inventories

     Inventories at March 31, 1998 and September 30, 1997 are summarized as
follows:

</TABLE>

3. Earnings per Common Share and Common Equivalent Share:

     Earnings per common share and common equivalent share were calculated using
the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents
outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of common shares
actually outstanding was increased by the number of shares issuable on the
exercise of the dilutive stock options when the market price of the common
shares exceeds the option price granted. This increase in the number of common
shares was reduced by the number of common shares that are assumed to have been
repurchased with the proceeds from the exercise of the stock options; those
repurchases were assumed to have been made at the average price of the common
stock during the period.

4.  Depreciation

                  For the six months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, depreciation
charges were $1,498,028 and $1,451,218, respectively.

5.       Contingencies

         Legal Proceedings

         The Company is from time to time subject to various claims from
existing or former employees alleging gender, age or racial discrimination and
anti-union activity, none of which are expected to have a material adverse
affect on the Company. In addition, as a manufacturer of industrial products,
the Company is, from time to time, subjected to various product liability
claims. Such claims typically involve personal injury or wrongful death
associated with the use or misuse of the Company's products. While such claims
have not been material to the Company in any year and the Company believes that
it maintains adequate product liability insurance, there can be no assurance
that such insurance will continue to be available on terms acceptable to the
Company. Any product liability claim not fully covered by insurance, as well as
any adverse publicity from a product liability claim, could have a material
adverse effect on the Company. The Company is currently defending a few legal
proceedings involving product liability claims relating to McClain, Galion Dump
and E-Z Pack brand products. Galion Holding, pursuant to an indemnification it
provided Peabody Galion Division of Peabody International Corporation
("Peabody") in connection with the Galion Acquisition, is currently defending a
number of legal proceedings involving product liability claims arising out of
products manufactured by Peabody prior to the date of the Galion Acquisition.
These claims are also covered by insurance. Although the Company has already
settled many of these cases and the Company believes that it can continue to
successfully resolve these product liability claims, there can be no assurance
that the Company can continue to do so. The Company is not presently a party to
any material legal proceedings except as described above.



         Environmental Matters

         The Company's operations are subject to extensive federal, state and
local regulation under environmental laws and regulations concerning, among
other things, emissions into the air, discharges into the waters and the
generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste
and other materials. Inherent in manufacturing operations and in owning real
estate is the risk of environmental liabilities as a result of both current and
past operations, which cannot be predicted with

5.       Contingencies - (continued)

certainty. The Company has incurred and will continue to incur costs, on an
ongoing basis, associated with environmental regulatory compliance in its
business.

         State and local agencies have become increasingly active in the
environmental area. The increased regulation by multiple agencies can be
expected to increase the Comapany's future environmental costs. In particular,
properties under federal and state scrutiny frequently result in significant
clean-up costs and litigation expenses related to a party's clean-up obligation.
However, the Company believes that the ever-increasing waste stream and the
continuing initiatives of government authorities relating to environmental and
waste disposal problems, including restrictions on landfill locations and
operations and extensive regulation relating to the disposal of waste, create
significant opportunities for companies in the solid waste handling equipment
industry. In addition, the trend towards classifying more materials as
"semi-hazardous" or "hazardous" waste may be expected to continue to make
handling such materials more complex, thereby further facilitating the market
for solid waste handling products.

                 DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION,


         Net sales increased 5.7% to $23.6 million for the quarter ended March
31, 1998 (Quarter 1998) from $22.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
(Quarter 1997). The increase was primarily a result of strong sales by the
Company's McClain E-Z Pack and Commodity facilities. Although the sales
for the Quarter 1998 increased, the Company's McClain E-Z Pack and Galion
Dump Bodies facilities had approximately $5.0 million of finished product they
were unable to ship due to a severe shortage of the Truck Chassis on which the
Company mounts these products. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales
increased to 81.46% for the Quarter 1998 from 77.78% for the Quarter 1997.
Selling, General and Administrative expenses decreased to 13.8% for the Quarter
1998 from 15.54% for the Quarter 1997 as a result of the increased sales volume
and the continued restructuring of certain administrative processes.

         Net sales for the six months ended March 31, 1998 increased 10.75% to
$47.2 million from $42.6 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997. Cost
of sales for the six months ended March 31, 1998 increased to 81.47% from 79.29%
for the six months ended March 31, 1997. Selling, General and Administrative
expenses decreased to 13.48% of net sales for the six months ended March 31,
1998 from 15.57% for the six months ended March 31, 1997.

         The Company had working capital of $36.2 million at March 31, 1998
compared to $33.5 million at September 30, 1997. The ratio of current assets to
current liabilities was 2.58 to 1 at March 31, 1998 from 2.63 to 1 at September
30, 1997. The Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $2.0 million at
March 31, 1998. Cash flows used by operations were $0.05 million for the six
months ended March 31, 1998, primarily due to increased inventory resulting from
the current shortage of chassis previously discussed.

         On April 16, 1998 the Company signed a new agreement with its principal
lender.  As a result the Company has additional availability on the Company's
working capital line of credit. Additionally, the agreement changed the basis
of its interest rate structure from a Prime Rate base to a LIBOR base. This
change effectively reduced the Company's primary borrowing rate by
approximately 75 basis points.
