                       ORIOLE HOMES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1998 and the related
       statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March
       31, 1998 and 1997 of Oriole Homes Corp. and its subsidiaries have been
       prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management of
       the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
       necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited interim periods have
       been reflected herein.

       Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
       prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
       been omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial
       statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
       thereto included in the Company's December 31, 1997 annual report on Form
       10K.

       Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the current year
       presentation.

2.     The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are
       not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

3.     Inventory valuation adjustment

       Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121 requires
       that long-lived assets held and used by the Company be reviewed for
       impairment whenever events or changes indicate that the net book value of
       the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the
       sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows from the use of the
       assets is less than the net book value of the asset. The Company
       periodically reviews the carrying value of its assets and, if such
       reviews indicate the potential for lack of recovery of the net book
       value, adjusts the assets accordingly.

       In this regard, the Company recorded in the first quarter of 1997 a
       non-cash inventory valuation adjustment totaling $8,700,000 or $1.88 per
       common share, reducing certain land inventory to its estimated fair value
       less cost to sell. The inventory adjustment pertained to land for
       approximately 1,000 unsold housing units located in five developments.

       Deteriorating market conditions during the first quarter of 1997 caused
       the Company to lower selling prices in order to maintain current sales
       levels and move current inventory, resulting in the inventory valuation
       adjustment.

4.     The inventory adjustment was based in part on management estimates and
       assumptions that affected the reported valuation of assets, and amounts
       of revenues and expenses. Actual future results could differ from these
       estimates.

        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128 " Earnings

        share on the face of the income statement. The reconciliation between
        the computations is as follows:

</TABLE>

        Included in diluted shares for March 31, 1998 are common stock
        equivalents relating to options of 88,700.

7.      Senior notes

        On January 13, 1993, the Company issued its 12 1/2% Senior Notes
        ("Notes"), due January 15, 2003. The Notes had an original face value of
        $70,000,000 and were issued at a discount of $1,930,600. The Notes are
        senior unsecured obligations of the Company subject to redemption at the
        Company's option on or after January 15, 1998 at 105% of the principal
        amount and thereafter at prices declining annually to 100% of the
        principal amount on or after January 15, 2001.

        The indenture under which the Notes were issued requires sinking fund
        payments of $17,500,000 on January 15, 2001 and January 15, 2002. The
        indenture contains provisions restricting the amount and type of
        indebtedness the Company may incur, the purchase by the Company of its
        stock and the payment of cash dividends. At March 31, 1998, dividend
        payments are restricted and will be restricted until the Company posts
        cumulative net income in excess of $62,200,000.

        During the first quarter of 1998, the Company purchased $3,850,000 
        Notes to be used as part of the sinking fund.

8.      Line of credit

       A revolving loan agreement (line of credit) with a bank, collateralized
       by land, provides up to $10,000,000 of borrowings, at an interest rate of
       prime plus 1.5%, of which $9,990,000 is available at March 31, 1998. The
       agreement expires June 30, 1999.

       The line of credit can be used to finance ongoing development and
       construction of residential real estate and short-term capital needs and
       only requires monthly interest payments. The agreement has no
       compensating balance arrangements and contains typical restrictions and
       covenants, the most restrictive of which include that:

         a.      the Company shall maintain, at all times through the life of
                 the loan, its consolidated tangible net worth at not less than
                 $42,000,000, and;

         b.      the Company's ability to incur additional debt is restricted.

9.      Income taxes

        At March 31, 1998, the Company has no deferred tax benefit related to
        its net operating loss as the Company's ability to realized these
        benefits is not "more likely than not" as defined by FASB Statement No.
        109 "Accounting for Income Taxes".

10.     New accounting pronouncements

        The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of
        Financial Standards Nos. 130 ("SFAS 130"), "Reporting Comprehensive
        Income", and 131 ("SFAS 131"), "Disclosures about Segments of an
        Enterprise and Related Information". SFAS 130 prescribes standards for
        reporting comprehensive income and its components. SFAS 131 establishes
        guidance as to the required disclosure for reporting segment
        information. The Company has adopted these standards, which have no
        impact on the Company.

11.     Commitments and contingencies

        The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation arising in the
        ordinary course of business, none of which is expected to have a
        material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position
        or results of operations.

        The Company is also subject to the normal obligations associated with
        entering into contracts for the purchase, development and sale of real
        estate in the routine conduct of its business.

Board of Directors
Oriole Homes Corp.

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Oriole Homes
Corp. and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1998, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month period then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical review procedures to
financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
        FINANCIAL CONDITION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997

         The Company's revenues from home sales increased $5.6 million (28.1%)
to $25.3 million during the first quarter of 1998 as compared to 1997 primarily
as a result of the number of homes delivered. Oriole delivered 151 homes in the
1998 first quarter compared to 120 in the same period in 1997. The average
selling price of homes delivered in 1998 increased about 2.0%, from $164.8 to
$167.8. The number of contracts signed at 164 and the aggregate dollar value of
those contracts at $25.8 million decreased in the 1998 first quarter from 262
and $40.2 million, respectively, in the same period in 1997.

         Other operating revenues and interest, rentals and other income
increased to $1.9 million in the first quarter of 1998 from $1.6 million in 1997
primarily due to an increase in interest earned on available cash.

         Cost of home sales increased to $22.0 million in 1998 from $17.8
million in 1997 as a result of an increase in the number of homes delivered. As
a percentage of home sales, however, cost of sales decreased to 86.9% from 90.0%
in the initial quarter of 1997, the threefold result of the increase in average
selling price previously mentioned, a reduction in direct construction costs and
the inventory valuation adjustment recognized in 1997.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 15.6% of
revenues in the first quarter of 1998 as compared to 20.4% in the same period in
1997. This substantial improvement was the result of the implementation of
certain strategic initiatives designed to enhance operating efficiencies,
including a workforce reduction program and consolidation of facilities.

         In the prior year quarter ended March 31, 1997 there was a net loss of
$9.7 million ($2.10 per share) primarily due to a non-cash pre-tax charge of
$8.7 million to write-down the value of certain land inventory. This compares to
net income of $26,327 ($0.01 per share) for the current period ended March 31,
1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's financing needs depend primarily upon sales volume, asset
turnover, land acquisition, construction volume and the market value of
non-residential parcels of land. In the past, the Company has financed its
working capital needs through funds generated by operations, the sale of
investment property held for resale, the periodic issuance of common stock and
long-term borrowings.

         During the first quarter of 1998, the Company used a portion of
available cash provided by increased operating revenues to purchase $3.85
million of senior notes and decrease other liabilities in part by
accelerating payment of payables to its vendors in consideration for discounts
ranging from 2.0% to 6.0%. At March 31, 1998, the Company had approximately
$21.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and the availability of substantially
all of it's $10.0 million revolving line of credit.

         Oriole also has an outstanding balance of about $12.4 million of a
purchase money mortgage at an interest rate of 7.15%, collateralized by land and
buildings. Of this balance, $0.2 million is due in 1998 and the balance is
payable by 2003.

         The Company had no firm commitments for capital expenditures as of the
balance sheet date. The Company believes that current cash resources, cash from
operations and borrowings under its line of credit will be sufficient to meet
anticipated working capital requirements through March 31, 1999.
