                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                         MATERIAL SCIENCES CORPORATION

The financial information contained in this report should be read in conjunction

    the Walbridge, Ohio facility.

(2) On June 16, 1994 the Board of Directors of the Company declared a stock
    dividend of one-half share per share of the Company's Common Stock, which
    was paid on July 28, 1994 to shareholders of record at the close of business
    on June 30, 1994. All share and per share data has been restated to
    retroactively reflect this stock dividend.

(3) Includes trade receivables due from the Partnership of $1,092 at May 31,
    1995 and $799 at February 28, 1995.

</TABLE> 
 
 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 ---------------------

 NET SALES

 Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 increased 2.7% over the first
 quarter of fiscal 1995.  Sales of laminates and composites grew 6.6%; coil
 coating 0.5%; and electrogalvanizing 16.1%; while metallizing and coating sales
 were down 19.6%.

 LAMINATES AND COMPOSITES

 Laminates and composites sales during the first quarter grew by 6.6% over the
 same period of fiscal 1995.  This increase was primarily the result of higher
 sales of Polycore Composites(R), due, in part, to new product applications and
 market expansion activities.  The overall Polycore Composites increase was
 offset, in part, by somewhat lower sales of disc brake noise damper material
 and Specular+(R).

 METALLIZING AND COATING

 Sales of metallizing and coating products decreased 19.6% in the first quarter
 of fiscal 1996 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1995.  This decrease
 was due primarily to solar control window film sales, which are usually strong
 in warmer weather but were depressed in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 by the
 unusually cold and damp spring season in North America.  International sales of
 solar control window film remained strong during the first quarter.


                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
 COIL COATING

 Coil coating sales were flat compared to the previous year's first quarter.
 Customers built up hedge inventories, anticipating that MSC's Middletown, Ohio
 facility's 52-day shutdown in last fiscal year's fourth quarter would run
 longer than planned.  The shutdown was accomplished on schedule but sales were
 slowed by customer inventory adjustments, particularly in the areas of
 lighting, heating and air conditioning, and fuel tanks.

 ELECTROGALVANIZING

 MSC participates in the electrogalvanizing market through Walbridge Coatings
 (the "Partnership"), a partnership among subsidiaries of MSC, Bethlehem Steel
 Corporation ("Bethlehem") and Inland Steel Industries, Inc. ("Inland").  MSC's
 net sales for electrogalvanizing consist of various fees charged to the
 Partnership for operating the facility.  Bethlehem and Inland are primarily
 responsible for the sales and marketing activities of the Partnership.  The
 Company's primary financial benefits from the Partnership are the revenues
 billed to Walbridge Coatings for operating the facility.  These revenues
 represent 23.7% and 21.0% of the Company's net sales in the first quarters of
 fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The profitability for operating the
 facility is comparable to the Company's overall operating results.  Under the
 equity method of accounting, the Company includes its portion of the
 Partnership net income (loss) in Equity in Results of Partnership shown in the
 Consolidated Statements of Income.  The amounts do not directly correlate to
 the Company's 50% ownership interest due to contractual allocation requirements
 of the Partnership agreement.

 MSC's electrogalvanizing sales increased 16.1%, while electrogalvanizing volume
 increased 5.6% to 120,623 tons in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 from 114,188
 tons in the prior fiscal year period.  The increase in sales over the previous
 fiscal year resulted from a strong demand for new autos and trucks, a
 continuing shift to higher value-added electrogalvanized and coil coated
 materials, and price increases.  MSC increased the capacity of the facility by
 approximately 5% in the third quarter of fiscal 1995 which also contributed to
 the increase in sales and volume over the prior year's first quarter.

 The sales and marketing responsibilities of the Partnership are split between
 Bethlehem and Inland at 75% and 25%, respectively.  During the first quarter of
 fiscal 1996, Inland utilized only 18% of available production line time rather
 than its full 25%.  Bethlehem and other customers utilized this additional
 available line time.  Inland is reviewing its future involvement in the
 Partnership, and therefore, there is no assurance that Inland will utilize its
 full 25% of available line time on a long-term basis.  The Company believes
 that any short-term disruption in volume that might be caused by a reduction in
 Inland's line time requirements could be replaced by additional volume from
 Bethlehem and other customers.

 GROSS PROFIT

 MSC's gross profit margin was 27.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 versus
 25.6% in the previous year.  This improvement was due to a higher value-added
 product mix, improving manufacturing efficiencies, and continuing productivity
 gains resulting from capital expenditures.



                                      -9-

 SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

 Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased to 14.8% of sales
 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 from 15.0% of sales in the same period last
 fiscal year.  This decrease was due to larger sales volume over the prior
 fiscal year's first quarter and lower administrative costs offset, in part, by
 increased expenditures for strategic purposes such as high-growth product
 marketing, research and development, and international marketing efforts.

 TOTAL OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET AND INCOME TAXES

 Total other (income) expense, net was income of $.3 million in the first
 quarter of fiscal 1996 versus income of $.4 million for the first quarter of
 fiscal 1995.  MSC's effective income tax rate was approximately 38.5% during
 the first quarter of fiscal 1996 versus 38.0% in the first quarter of the prior
 fiscal year.

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 -------------------------------

 During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, MSC's operating activities utilized
 $3.6 million of cash versus $1.1 million of cash utilized during the first
 quarter last year.  The increase in cash utilization is due mainly to increased
 seasonal inventory and the payment of certain accrued expenses during the first
 three months of fiscal 1996.

 MSC's capital expenditures during the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were $4.8
 million versus $2.9 million during the same period of fiscal 1995.  The cash
 flow from investment in partnership, net of distributions, was comparable in
 the first quarter of fiscal 1996 to the first quarter of the prior fiscal year.

 During the first quarter of fiscal 1996 MSC's long-term debt, less current
 portion increased by $5.8 million to $12.7 million due to borrowings on MSC's
 unsecured line of credit offset, in part, by normally scheduled debt
 amortization.  The Company maintains a $25 million unsecured line of credit
 which expires August 31, 1997.  There was $6.1 million outstanding under this
 line of credit at May 31, 1995 versus no balance outstanding at February 28,
 1995.  The Company has executed letters of credit totalling $4.9 million
 against this line leaving an available line of credit of $14.0 million at
 May 31, 1995.  The Company believes that its cash flow from operations,together
 with available financing (including an increase in the line of credit if
 required), and cash on hand will be sufficient to fund its working capital
 needs, capital expenditure program, and debt amortization.

 The Company has a capital lease obligation, which was $8.0 million as of
 May 31, 1995, relating to a facility which the Company subleases to the
 Partnership.  In addition, throughout the term of the Partnership, the Company
 is contingently responsible for 50% of the Partnership's financing
 requirements, including the Company's share (approximately $5.1 million) of
 $10.3 million in Partnership financing loans from third parties at
 May 31, 1995.

 MSC continues to participate in the implementation of settlements with the
 government for clean-up of various Superfund sites.  For additional
 information, refer to MSC'S Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28,
 1995.
