INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Management of
Adam Wholesalers, Inc.

We have audited the  combined  balance  sheets of the Sash and Door  Business of
Adam  Wholesalers,  Inc. ("Sash and Door") as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and
the  related  combined   statements  of  operations,   retained  earnings,   and
comprehensive  income  and of  cash  flows  for  the  years  then  ended.  These
statements are the  responsibility of Adam  Wholesalers,  Inc.  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 1, the combined financial statements referred to above have
been prepared from the Adam Wholesalers,  Inc. consolidated financial statements
and allocations of certain costs and expenses have been made. These  allocations
are not  necessarily  indicative  of the cost and expenses  that would have been
incurred by Sash and Door on a stand-alone basis.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the financial  position of Sash and Door as of December
31, 1998 and 1997,  and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

    years of the date of  issue,  at any  time,  at the  option  of the Board of
    Directors  at the  redemption  price of $105 per share.  As of December  31,
    1998, there are 1,950 shares issued and 840 shares outstanding.

    The accompanying  combined financial  statements have been prepared from the
    Adam Wholesalers,  Inc. consolidated  financial statements and allocation of
    certain  costs,   purchase  rebates  and  expenses  have  been  made.  These
    allocations  are not  necessarily  indicative of the costs and expenses that
    would have been  incurred  by Sash and Door on  stand-alone  basis (See Note
    11).

    The accompanying  combined financial  statements are presented in accordance
    with generally accepted accounting principles.  All significant intercompany
    transactions,  profits, and balances between the Sash and Door entities have
    been eliminated.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Organization  and  Nature of  Business - The Sash and Door  business  is the
    wholesale  distribution  of  doors  and  windows  for the  construction  and
    remodeling  industry with principal locations in the Midwest and Midatlantic
    United  States.  In view of the  nature of its  products  and the  method of
    distribution,  management believes that, for the periods reported,  the Sash
    and Door business constitutes a single industry segment.

    Sales in the  Midwest  approximated  55% of the total sales in both 1998 and
    1997,  while accounts  receivable  approximated  56% and 49% at December 31,
    1998 and 1997,  respectively.  Sales in the Midatlantic  approximated 45% of
    the  total  sales  in  both  1998  and  1997,   while  accounts   receivable
    approximated  44% and 51% at  December  31,  1998  and  1997,  respectively.
    Warehouse sales were $232,661 and $226,971 for the years ending December 31,
    1998 and 1997, respectively. Direct sales were $123,371 and $117,929 for the
    years ending December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

    Accounts  Receivable & Notes Receivable - Total accounts receivable and note
    receivable  balance  includes one  customer for which the total  outstanding
    balance  approximated 12% and 11% of total  outstanding  short and long-term
    receivable at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

    Inventory  -  Inventory  is  valued  at lower of cost or  market  using  the
    last-in,  first-out  (LIFO)  method.  If  the  Companies  had  followed  the
    first-in,  first-out method (FIFO),  inventories  would have been $8,637 and
    $10,223 higher in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Cost of goods sold would have
    been  $1,586 and $1,441  higher  had the FIFO  method  been used in 1998 and
    1997, respectively.

    Property,  Plant and Equipment - Property,  plant and equipment are recorded
    at cost.  Depreciation and  amortization are calculated using  straight-line
    and  accelerated  methods over the estimated  useful lives of the respective
    assets,  which  generally are 39 years for buildings,  15 years for building
    improvements  and  range  from 3 to 7 years  for  machinery  and  equipment.
    Expenditures  which  substantially  increase value or extend useful life are
    capitalized.  Expenditures  for  maintenance and repairs are charged against
    income as incurred.

    Revenue  Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue upon delivery of goods
    to a customer.

    Deferred  Expenses - Deferred  expenses  consist of an asset  established to
    record the minimum pension liability required under SFAS 87 (See Note 8).

    Miscellaneous Other Assets - Miscellaneous other assets consist primarily of
    prepaid pension costs.

    Fair Value of Financial  Instruments - Cash and cash  equivalents,  accounts
    receivable,  accounts  payable,  and accrued  expenses are  reflected in the
    financial  statements  at fair value because of the  short-term  maturity of
    those  instruments.  The fair value of Sash and  Door's  notes  payable  and
    long-term debt is discussed in Note 4 to the combined financial statements.

    Long-Lived  Assets - Long-lived  assets to be held and used are reviewed for
    impairment  whenever  events or changes in  circumstances  indicate that the
    related  carrying amount may not be recoverable.  When required,  impairment
    losses on assets to be held and used are  recognized  based on the excess of
    the asset's carrying amount over the value of the asset.  Long-lived  assets
    to be disposed of are  reported at the lower of carrying  amount or the fair
    value less cost to sell.

    Advertising  and  Promotions - All costs  associated  with  advertising  and
    promoting  products  are  expensed  in the year  incurred.  Advertising  and
    promotions  expense,  including expense of customer rebates,  was $3,134 and
    $2,120 in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

    Vendor Rebates - Vendors provide the Company with volume  purchase  rebates.
    Rebates applicable to the Sash and Door operations totaled $1,951 and $1,722
    in 1998 and 1997, respectively. These amounts have been reflected within the
    accompanying financial statements.

    Accounting  Policies - In 1998,  the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board
    issued  Statement  of  Financial   Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No.  130
    "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income" & No. 132,  "Employers'  Disclosure About
    Pensions and Other  Postretirement  Benefits." These statements,  which were
    adopted  in 1998,  expand or modify  disclosures  and,  accordingly,  had no
    impact on the Sash and Door's financial  position,  results of operations or
    cash flows.

    Sash and Door has not completed  the process of  evaluating  the impact that
    will  result  from  adopting  SFAS  No.  133,   "Accounting  for  Derivative
    Instruments and Hedging  Activities".  Sash and Door is therefore  unable to
    disclose the impact that  adopting  SFAS No. 133 will have on its  financial
    position  and results of  operations  when such  statement  is adopted.  The
    statement is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1998.

    Use of Estimates - The preparation of the financial statements in conformity
    with generally accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make
    estimates  and  assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and
    liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
    of the  financial  statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and
    expenses  during  the  period.   Actual  results  could  differ  from  those
    estimates.

3.  INTERCOMPANY PAYABLE

    The  Company,  through its bank credit  facility,  provided  funding for the
    daily  operations  of Sash and  Door.  Interest  expense  recognized  by the
    respective  Sash and Door  entities  is  based  on the  respective  entities
    monthly  intercompany  balance  primarily at a rate equal to LIBOR (5.07% at
    December 31, 1998) plus 225 basis points and is included in the net interest
    expense balances within the accompanying  financial statements.  Net related
    party  interest  expense  equaled  $2,456  and  $2,803  in  1998  and  1997,
    respectively.

4.  NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT

    Note payable,  totaling $70,  consists of a short-term  demand note due to a
    related party with a stated interest rate of 13%. Sash and Door's  long-term
    debt consists of the following at December 31, 1998 and 1997:

                                                                   1998     1997

Mortgage, secured by property, with monthly payments
   of $20, including interest at 8.5%, through 2006              $1,270   $1,402
Related Party Notes, with varying repayment terms, including
   interest at 6%, maturing 2002 through 2005                       247      297
                                                                    ---      ---
           Total                                                  1,517    1,699
Less: Current maturities                                            184      171
                                                                    ---      ---
           Total                                                 $1,333   $1,528
                                                                 ======   ======



    The Company has outstanding  unsecured lines of credit with a bank due March
    31, 1999 for which the  operations of the Sash and Door business  serve as a
    guarantee to the lines of credit.

    Principal payments on long-term debt are as follows:

1999                                               $ 184
2000                                                 197
2001                                                 193
2002                                                 198
2003                                                 213
Remainder                                            532
                                                     ---
Total                                            $ 1,517
                                                 =======




    Management  believes the fair values of the notes payable and long-term debt
    approximates  their carrying value at December 31, 1998 and 1997,  since the
    rates  approximate  current rates  available for debt with similar terms and
    maturities.

5.  INCOME TAXES

    The  operations  of Sash and Door are  included in the  consolidated  United
    States federal, state and local income tax returns of the Company.  Deferred
    income tax assets and  liabilities  are computed  annually  for  differences
    between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that
    will result in taxable or deductible  amounts in the future based on enacted
    tax laws and rates  applicable to the periods in which the  differences  are
    expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when
    necessary  to reduce  deferred  tax  assets  to the  amount  expected  to be
    realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period
    plus or minus the  change  during  the  period in  deferred  tax  assets and
    liabilities.

    The provision for income taxes are as follows:

7.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

    The Company has a Voluntary Employee  Beneficiary  Association (VEBA) trust.
    The VEBA trust, Adam Wholesalers  Health Benefit Plan ("Plan"),  was created
    to provide  the  payment of certain  employee  health  benefits.  All active
    full-time employees are eligible. Adam Wholesalers, Inc. is both the sponsor
    and administrator of the Plan. The cost of the Plan is paid by contributions
    from  the  plan  sponsor,  which  are  based  on  historical  benefits  paid
    experience. The Company, through the intercompany accounts,  allocates costs
    for the Plan to Sash and Door.  All benefits  are paid by the Plan  directly
    from assets of the Plan. Benefits payable from Plan assets to any one person
    are  limited to $130  during  any one year  through  the use of a  stop-loss
    insurance policy.

    Self-insurance  cost for workers  compensation  are  accrued  based upon the
    aggregate of the  liability for reported  claims and an estimated  liability
    for claims incurred but not yet reported.

8.  EMPLOYEE PENSION PLANS

    Sash and Door is included in defined  benefit pension plans sponsored by the
    Company  which cover  certain  full-time  hourly and salaried  employees and
    certain union employees.  The Company is the sponsor and  administrator  for
    these plans. The Company  generally  follows the policy of funding an amount
    between the actuarially computed maximum and minimum contributions.

    Pension  expense is  composed of several  components  that  reflect  various
    aspects  of the  Company's  financial  arrangements  as well as the  cost of
    benefits  earned by  employees.  The  components  are  determined  using the
    projected  unit  credit  actuarial  cost  method  and are  based on  certain
    actuarial assumptions.

    The  following  table  reconciles  the Sash and Door  funded  status  of the
    defined  benefit plans with amounts  recognized  in Sash and Door's  balance

    Benefits under some of the plans covering hourly and union employees are not
    based on wages and therefore  future wage  adjustments have no effect on the
    projected benefit obligation for these hourly plans.

9.    MULTI-EMPLOYER PENSION PLANS

    Sash and Door  contributes to several  multi-employer  pension plans.  These
    plans  cover   substantially  all  of  its  Teamster  and  Carpenters  Union
    employees.  Amounts  charged to pension  expense and  contributed  (or to be
    contributed)  to the plans for the Sash and Door  Business  in 1998 and 1997
    totaled $401 and $336, respectively.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    Sash and Door is involved in litigation  incidental  to its  business.  Such
    litigation is not considered by management to be significant.

    Andersen  Corporation  ("Andersen"),  whose products accounted for net sales
    for Sash and Door of 43% and 42% in 1998 and 1997, respectively, distributes
    its products only through independent  distributors such as the Company. The
    agreements  with  Andersen  provide that  Andersen can  terminate any of the
    distributorships  at any  time  upon  a  60-day  notice.  A  termination  or
    significant  modification  of the  distribution  relationship  with Andersen
    could have a material adverse effect on revenues and earnings.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

    Sash  and  Door is part of Adam  Wholesalers,  Inc.  business  of  wholesale
    distribution  of doors  and  windows  for the  construction  and  remodeling
    industry,  and distribution of various other building  products.  As part of
    this process,  Sash and Door received and shipped product among various Adam
    Wholesalers,  Inc.  subsidiaries.  Included  in the  accompanying  financial
    statements are the following related party transactions:

                                    1998         1997

Purchases                          $ 3,439       $ 3,800
Sales                                  927           500
Accounts Receivable                    158           263
Accounts Payable                       172           141



    The Company has  allocated a portion of total  Company  management  expenses
    incurred  to Sash and Door based on a defined  percentage  of annual cost of
    sales. The amount,  which  approximated  $3,636 and $4,756 in 1998 and 1997,
    respectively,  is included within "Operating  Expenses" in the statements of
    operations,  retained earnings and  comprehensive  income. In the opinion of
    management,  such  allocation  method is  reasonable  to cover the  services
    provided to Sash and Door; however, it is not necessarily indicative of what
    Sash and Door would have incurred on a stand-alone basis.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

    Effective  January 1,  1999,  the  Company  entered  into an Asset  Purchase
    Agreement  (the  "Agreement")  with  Morgan,  whereby  Morgan will  purchase
    certain  assets and assume  certain  liabilities.  The closing  date for the
    Agreement was February 19, 1999.

    On March 10, 1999 Andersen announced the intent to purchase Morgan.

The  following  sets  forth  the  Company's  Unaudited  Pro Forma  Statement  of
Operations  and the Company's  Unaudited Pro Forma Balance  Sheet,  in each case
giving  effect  to the  acquisition  of the  Sash  and  Door  Business  of  Adam
Wholesalers,  Inc.  ("Adam  Acquisition")  described  in Note 1 hereto as if the
acquisition  had been  consummated  as of  January  1,  1998 (in the case of the
Unaudited Pro Forma  Statement of  Operations)  and on December 31, 1998 (in the
case of the  Unaudited  Pro  Forma  Balance  Sheet).  The  Unaudited  Pro  Forma
Financial  Statements  of the Company do not  purport to present  the  financial
position or results of  operations  of the Company had the  acquisition  assumed
herein occurred on the dates indicated,  nor are they necessarily  indicative of
the results of operations which may be expected to occur in the future.

The Adam  Acquisition will be accounted for by the Company as a purchase whereby
the basis of  accounting  for Adam's assets and  liabilities  will be based upon
their  fair  value  at the  date  of the  Acquisition.  Pro  forma  adjustments,
including the  preliminary  purchase  price  allocation  resulting from the Adam
Acquisition  as  described  in Note 1 of the  Notes to the  Unaudited  Pro Forma
Financial Statements, represent the Company's preliminary determination of these
adjustments  and  are  based  upon  preliminary  information,   assumptions  and
operating   decisions  which  the  Company   considers   reasonable   under  the
circumstances. Final amounts may differ from those set forth herein.

On March 10, 1999,  Morgan  entered  into an  Agreement of Merger with  Andersen
Windows  and its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Andersen  Sub,  pursuant  to  which
Andersen Sub and Morgan will be merged,  resulting in Morgan,  as the  surviving
corporation,  becoming  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  Andersen  Windows.  The
consideration  to be  received by  Morgan's  stockholders  in the Merger will be
$4.00  per  share of  Morgan  common  stock,  subject  to  adjustment  until the
effective date of closing,  under certain limited  circumstances.  The Merger is
subject to, among other things,  approval of the  stockholders of Morgan and the
applicable regulatory agencies.  This pending transaction has not been reflected
in the Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements.

                             (Dollars in thousands)


1. The  Company's  Unaudited  Pro Forma  Financial  Statements  assume  the Adam
   Acquisition  occurred  (1) as of  January  1,  1998 for the  purposes  of the
   Unaudited Pro Forma Statements of Operations and (2) on December 31, 1998 for
   purposes of the Unaudited Pro Forma Balance Sheet:

   Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement,  certain assets of Adam were
   excluded and certain liabilities were not assumed. Accordingly, the pro forma
   adjustments reflect decreases in cash ($371),  accounts receivable ($31,749),
   deferred  income taxes ($834),  other  current  assets  ($630),  other assets
   ($4,464), short-term debt ($70), current maturities of long term debt ($184),
   intercompany  payables  ($24,198),  accounts payable ($7,312),  other current
   liabilities  ($4,221),  long-term  debt ($2,683)  along with a  corresponding
   increase to Adam's stockholder's equity ($620).

   The Adam  Acquisition  was financed  through  borrowings of $54,282 under the
   Company's existing credit facility.

   The excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired  resulting from the
   preliminary purchase price allocation is assumed to be as follows:

   Pro forma purchase price
      Purchase price per the Asset Purchase Agreement       $ 53,782
      Additional purchase price granted in 
        lieu of stock options                                    300
      Acquisition costs                                          200
                                                                 ---
         Total pro forma purchase price                       54,282
                                                              ------

      assets  acquired  Book  value  per
      historical financial statements                         39,813 
   Net assets and liabilities excluded

                                                                 ---

                                                              ------

   Excess of  purchase  price  over net book  value of 
    assets  acquired                                          13,849
      Allocated to:
         Inventories                                           8,637
         Machinery and equipment                                 966
         Intangible assets                                       500
                                                                 ---
    Remaining excess of cost over fair value of net assets 
     acquired (goodwill)                                     $ 3,746
                                                             =======


   The foregoing  preliminary  purchase  price  allocation is based on available
   information and certain  assumptions the Company  considers  reasonable.  The
   final purchase price  allocation  will be based upon a  determination  of the
   fair value of the net assets acquired at the date of the Adam  Acquisition as
   determined  by  valuations  or  other  studies.   The  final  purchase  price
   allocation may differ from the preliminary allocation.

2. In conjunction  with the Adam  Acquisition,  Morgan has  established  opening
   balance  sheet  reserves  in  accordance  with  EITF  95-3,  "Recognition  of
   Liabilities  in  Connection  with a Purchase  Business  Combination,"  in the
   amount of $3,000, which represents estimated costs principally for facilities
   consolidation  and  severance.  Accordingly,  an  additional  $3,000 has been
   included within Other Current Liabilities and Goodwill.

3. The pro forma adjustment to goodwill assumes:

   Excess of cost over the fair value of net 
     assets acquired                                      $    3,746
   Establishment of opening balance sheet reserves             3,000
                                                               -----
                                                            $  6,746
                                                            ========


4. The pro forma  adjustment to reflect the effect of the  preliminary  purchase
   price allocation on cost of goods sold and general and administrative expense
   assumes:
    Cost of goods sold -
      Depreciation of amounts allocated to machinery 
      and equipment over 5  years.                          $    193
    General and administrative expenses -
      Amortization of amounts allocated to other 
        intangible assets over 5 years                           100
      Amortization of goodwill over 25 years                     270
                                                                ---          
                                                            $    563
                                                            ========


5. The  Company  has  elected  the FIFO  inventory  method  for the  costing  of
   inventory;  as such,  the LIFO effect on cost of goods sold of $1,586 for the
   year ended December 31, 1998 was eliminated.

6. The pro forma  adjustment to interest expense  assumes:  Additional  interest
   expense related to $54,282 of net additional
      borrowings under the Company's credit facility        $  4,142
   Elimination of Adam's interest expense                     (2,940)
                                                              ------ 
                                                            $  1,202
                                                            ========


   Interest  expense is  calculated  assuming a rate of 7.63% at the date of the
   Adam  Acquisition.  A 1/8 percent  increase (or  decrease) in such rate would
   increase (or decrease) annual interest expense by approximately $70.

7. The pro forma adjustment to the provision for income taxes assumes no federal
   or state income taxes as income would be offset by the Company's existing net
   operating loss position.

8. The pro forma adjustment to other assets assumes:

   Eliminate excluded assets in the Asset Purchase Agreement       $    (4,464)
   Record certain intangible assets                                        500
                                                                           ---

                                                                      $ (3,964)
                                                                      ======== 


9. The pro forma adjustment to other current liabilities assumes:

   Eliminate  excluded  liabilities  in the Asset  Purchase  Agreement $ (4,221)
   Establishment of opening balance sheet reserves                        3,000 
   Acquisition transaction  costs                                           200
                                                                            ---
                                                                       $ (1,021)
                                                                       ======== 


10. The pro forma adjustment to long-term obligations assumes:

   Record net additional  borrowings under the Company's  credit facility:  
     Cash purchase  price to seller                         $ 53,782  
     Eliminate  excluded  debt in the Asset  
       Purchase  Agreement                                    (2,683)  
     Additional  purchase price granted in lieu of
      stock options                                              300
                                                                 ---

                                                            $ 51,399
                                                            ========


 11. As a result of the acquisition of Adam on February 19, 1999, the
     Company determined that Adam's management information system was a better
     strategic fit for the combined businesses. Accordingly, the Company will
     take a charge of approximately $2.5 million during the first quarter of
     1999 relating to the write-off of the costs incurred for the implementation
     of the proposed new Morgan system. The pro forma disclosure does not
     include this charge due to its non-recurring nature.
