NET SALES

       Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 were up 8% compared to
the same quarter in the prior year. Factory direct shipments increased 14.4%

base towards larger customers.

GROSS MARGIN

      As a result of more competitive pricing, the gross margin percentage for
the first quarter of 1996 was 15.3%, down from 16.3% in the first quarter of
1995. There are some early indications that the decline in gross margin percent
in stock sales may be flattening out.

      The following table sets forth gross margin dollars, gross margin
percentages and year-over-year changes for 1995 and the first quarter of 1996.

WAREHOUSE AND DELIVERY EXPENSES

      As a percentage of warehouse shipments, warehouse and delivery expenses
increased to 8.5% in the first quarter of 1996 from 8.0% in the same quarter
last year, most of this increase took place in warehouse expense. These
increases were due, in part, to additional costs associated with a warehouse
modernization project. This project, when completed in the second quarter,
should begin to produce savings in warehouse expense.

      The following table shows the trend of warehouse and delivery expenses in
1995 and the first quarter of 1996:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      From December 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996 the Company's net trade
receivables increased by $2,097,000 or 10.9%. The increase in receivables was
due largely to higher level of sales in March 1996 (which includes orders taken
at a Dealers' Mart held in February) compared to December 1995. Inventories
increased by $875,000 or 5.7% in the same period.  Because of extended terms
received from suppliers in connection with the mart, trade payables increased
$7,339,000 from December 1995.

      At March 31, 1996 the Company had unused lines of credit of $5,190,000
which it believes are adequate to finance its working capital requirements.

INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.

      Certain of the statements contained in this report (other than the
financial statements and other statements of historical fact) are
forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that future developments
will be in accordance with management's expectations or that the affect of
future developments on the Company will be those anticipated by management.
Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
estimates reflected in such forward-looking statements are the following:

      -      competitive pressures on sales and pricing, including those from
             other





                                     - 9 -

             wholesale distributors and those from retailers in competition
             with the Company's customers;

      -      the Company's ability to achieve projected cost savings from its
             warehouse modernization program and ongoing cost reduction
             efforts;

      -      changes in cost of goods and the effect of differential terms and
             conditions available to larger competitors of the Company;

      -      uncertainties associated with any acquisition the Company may seek
             to implement; and

      -      changes in general economic conditions.

      While the Company periodically reassesses material trends and
uncertainties affecting the Company's results of operations and financial
condition in connection with its preparation of management's discussion and
analysis of results of operations and financial condition contained in its
quarterly and annual reports, the Company does not intend to review or revise
any particular forward-looking statement referenced herein in light of future
events.
