                       ORIOLE HOMES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.     The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1998 and the related
       statements of operations and cash flows for the three months and six
       months ended June 30, 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 and the six months ended
       June 30, 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 assets. 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. In
       addition, the Company recorded, in the second quarter of 1997, an
       inventory valuation adjustment of $8,350,000 or $1.81 per common share
       related to certain land inventory in the amount of $8,150,000 for
       approximately 1,200 unsold housing units and the contingent sale portion
       of a land sale in the amount of $200,000.

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

4.     Fixed asset adjustment

       The Company recorded in the second quarter of 1997 a fixed asset
       valuation adjustment of $4,525,000, or $.98 per common share, related to
       a rental apartment project. During the second quarter, management decided
       to dispose of this rental project and, therefore, reduced its carrying
       amount to its fair value less cost to sell.

5.     These adjustments were based in part on management estimates and
       assumptions that affected the reported valuation of the assets and the
       amount of revenues and expenses. Actual future results could differ from
       these estimates.

7.     Senior notes

       On January 13, 1993, the Company issued its 12 1/2% Senior Notes
       ("Notes"), due January 15, 2003. The Notes have a 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 June 30, 1998, dividend
       payments are restricted and will be restricted until the Company posts
       cumulative net income in excess of $62,200,000.

       During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company repurchased
       $5,050,000 of Senior Notes to be used as part of the sinking fund and has
       accumulated approximately $7,700,000 toward the $17,500,000 payment due
       January 15, 2001.

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 June 30, 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 June 30, 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".

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





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 June 30, 1998, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month and six-month
periods 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 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

         The Company's revenues from home sales decreased $12.3 million (48.3%)
to $13.2 million during the second quarter of 1998 as compared to 1997 primarily
as a result of a reduction in the number of homes delivered. Oriole delivered 82
homes in the 1998 second quarter compared to 162 in the same period in 1997. The
average selling price of homes delivered increased about 2.2%, from $157.1 to
$160.5. The number of contracts signed at 144 and the aggregate dollar value of
those contracts at $22.3 million decreased in the 1998 second quarter from 193
and $31.5 million, respectively, in the same period in 1997.

         Other operating revenues and Interest, rentals and other income
remained at approximately the same level in the second quarter of 1998 when
compared to the same period in 1997.

         Cost of home sales decreased to $11.2 million (50.0%) in 1998 from
$22.4 million in 1997 as a result of a decrease in the number of homes
delivered. As a percentage of home sales, cost of sales decreased to 85.3% from
88.1% in the second quarter of 1997, as the result of the increase in average
selling price previously mentioned and a reduction in direct construction costs
and the inventory valuation adjustment in 1997.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1.3 million
but as a percentage of revenues increased to 23.2% from 17.7% of revenues for
the same period in 1997 due to the corresponding reduction of home deliveries,
as previously discussed.

         In the prior year quarter ended June 30, 1997 there was a net loss of
$13.8 million ($2.98 per share) primarily due to a non-cash pre-tax charge of
$8.4 million to write-down the value of certain land inventory and $4.5 million
to write-down the cost of a rental apartment project to estimated fair market
value, less cost to sell. This compares to a net loss of $0.5 million ($0.11 per
share) for the current period ended June 30, 1998.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

         The Company's revenues from home sales decreased $6.7 million (14.9%)
to $38.5 million in the six month period of 1998 as compared to 1997 as a result
of the number of homes delivered. Oriole delivered 233 homes in the 1998 first
quarter compared to 282 in the same period in 1997. The average selling price of
homes delivered in 1998 increased about 3.0%, from $160.4 to $165.2. The number
of contracts signed at 308 and the aggregate dollar value of those contracts at
$48.1 million decreased in the 1998 first six months from 455 and $71.7 million,
respectively, for the same period in 1997.

         Other operating revenues and Interest, rentals and other income
increased to $4.4 million in the six month period of 1998 from $4.0 million in
1997 primarily due to an increase in interest earned on available cash.

         Cost of home sales decreased to $33.2 million (17.3%) in 1998 from
$40.2 million in 1997 as a result of a decrease in the number of homes
delivered. As a percentage of home sales, cost of sales decreased to 86.4% from
88.9% in the first six months of 1997, as the result of the increase in average
selling price previously mentioned and the reduction in direct construction
costs and the inventory valuation adjustment in 1997.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1.4 million
and also decreased to 18.2% of revenues in the first six months of 1998 as
compared to 18.7% in the same period in 1997. This 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 first six months ended June 30, 1997 there was a net
loss of $23.5 million ($5.08 per share) primarily due to a non-cash pre-tax
charge of $17.1 million to write-down the value of 


                                      -9-

certain land inventory and of $4.5 million to write-down the cost of a rental
apartment project to estimated fair market value, less cost to sell. This
compares to a net loss of $0.5 million ($0.10 per share) for the comparable
period ended June 30, 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 six months of 1998, the Company used a portion of
available cash provided by operations to purchase $5.05 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 June
30, 1998, the Company had approximately $21.2 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 $12.0 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 June 30, 1999.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

On May 21, 1998, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") adopted
changes to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
shareholder proposal rule), and related rules. Pursuant to these rule changes,
the SEC returned to its pre-1992 practice of reviewing on a case-by-case basis
whether shareholder proposals raise significant social policy issues, and
therefore are includable in an issuer's proxy statement, or whether the proposal
may be excluded as "ordinary business."

In addition, the SEC amended Rule 14a-4, which governs a company's use of its
discretionary proxy voting authority with respect to a shareholder proposal that
the shareholder has not sought to include in the proxy statement pursuant to
Rule 14a-8. New Rule 14(c)(1) sets a 45 day advance notice requirement. If a
shareholder fails to notify the company at least 45 days prior to the month and
day of mailing the prior year's proxy statement, then management will be
permitted to use their discretionary voting authority when the proposal is
raised at the company's annual meeting, without any discussion of the matter in
the proxy statement.

In the case of Oriole, the deadline for notice to Oriole for shareholder
proposals that are not sought to be included in the proxy statement with respect
to the 1999 Annual Meeting is March 15, 1999.
