         NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     NACCO INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                          (Tabular Amounts in Millions)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited condensed  consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of NACCO and its majority owned  subsidiaries  ("NACCO  Industries,
Inc. and  Subsidiaries,"  or the  "Company").  Intercompany  accounts  have been
eliminated.  NACCO  Industries,  Inc.  ("NACCO") is a holding  company with four
operating subsidiaries that function in three principal industries: lift trucks,
housewares and lignite mining.

NMHG  Holding  Co.,  through  its wholly  owned  subsidiaries,  NACCO  Materials
Handling  Group,  Inc.  ("NMHG  Wholesale")  and NMHG  Distribution  Co.  ("NMHG
Retail")  (collectively "NMHG"),  designs,  engineers,  manufactures,  sells and
services a full line of lift trucks and  replacement  parts  marketed  worldwide
under  the   Hyster(R)  and  Yale(R)  brand  names.   NACCO   Housewares   Group
("Housewares")  consists  of Hamilton  Beach*Proctor-Silex,  Inc.  ("HB*PS"),  a
leading  manufacturer  and  marketer  of small  electric  motor and  heat-driven
appliances as well as commercial products for restaurants,  bars and hotels, and
The  Kitchen  Collection,   Inc.  ("KCI"),  a  national  specialty  retailer  of
brand-name kitchenware, small electrical appliances and related accessories. The
North American Coal Corporation  ("NACoal") mines and markets lignite  primarily
as fuel for power generation by electric  utilities.  See Item 2,  "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results of Operations,"  for
segment disclosures.

These  financial  statements  have been  prepared in accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  for  interim  financial  information  and  the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes  required by generally accepted
accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary for a fair presentation of
the  financial  position  of the Company as of March 31, 2000 and the results of
its  operations  and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2000
and 1999 have been included.

Operating  results  for the three  month  period  ended  March 31,  2000 are not
necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of
the  year  ended  December  31,  2000.  For  further  information,  refer to the
consolidated   financial  statements  and  footnotes  thereto  included  in  the
Company's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal  year ended  December  31,
1999.

Note 2 - Earnings per Share

Earnings per share is calculated in accordance  with the provisions of Statement
of Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share." For
purposes of calculating the basic and diluted earnings per share, no adjustments
have been made to the reported amounts of net income. The share amounts used are
as follows:

The cost of certain  manufactured  and retail  inventories  has been  determined
using the LIFO method.  At March 31, 2000 and  December 31, 1999,  66 percent of
total inventories were determined using the LIFO method.

Note 4 - Restructuring Charge

In 1998, HB*PS recorded a pre-tax charge of $3.2 million to recognize  severance
payments to be made to approximately 450  manufacturing  employees in connection
with  transitioning  activities to HB*PS'  Mexican  facilities.  During 1999, an
additional  $1.2 million  pre-tax  charge was made for severance  payments to be
made  to  an  additional  130   manufacturing   employees  in  connection   with
transitioning  additional manufacturing activities to HB*PS' Mexican facilities.
In 1999, $1.7 million was expended for severance  payments made to approximately
350 employees and for related  benefit  costs.  These  expenditures  reduced the
reserve for  restructuring  to $2.7 million as of December 31, 1999.  During the
first three months of 2000,  $0.9 million was  expended for  severance  payments
made to approximately  200 employees and related  benefits.  These  expenditures
reduced the reserve for restructuring to $1.8 million as of March 31, 2000.

Note 5 - Accounting Standard Not Yet Adopted

In June 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities." This Statement
establishes  accounting and reporting  standards for derivative  instruments and
for hedging  activities.  It requires  companies to recognize all derivatives on
the balance sheet as assets and  liabilities,  measured at fair value.  Gains or
losses  resulting  from  changes  in the  values of those  derivatives  would be
accounted  for depending on the use of the  derivative  and whether it qualifies
for hedge accounting.  In June 1999, the FASB delayed the effective date of this
Statement for one year to fiscal years  beginning  after June 15, 2000. The FASB
cited the  reason  for this  delay was to  address  concerns  about a  company's
ability to modify their  information  systems and educate their managers in time
to apply this  Statement.  The Company  will adopt this  Statement on January 1,
2001 and is in the process of determining  the effect that adoption will have on
its financial statements.

Note 6 - Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement
of Cash  Flows  have  been  reclassified  to  conform  to the  current  period's

                  Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis
                of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
              (Tabular Amounts in Millions, Except Per Share Data)


FINANCIAL SUMMARY
- -----------------

Financial  information for each of the Company's reportable segments, as defined
by SFAS No.  131,  "Disclosures  about  Segments  of an  Enterprise  and Related
Information,"  is presented in the  following  table.  Because of the  Company's
continued  acquisitions  of Hyster and Yale retail  dealerships  during 1998 and
1999,  separate financial  information was first provided for NMHG Wholesale and
NMHG Retail in the third quarter of 1999.  Segment data for the first quarter of
1999 has been restated to show separately  NMHG Wholesale and NMHG Retail.  NMHG
Wholesale  includes the  manufacture and sale of lift trucks and related service
parts,  primarily  to  independent  and  wholly  owned  Hyster  and Yale  retail
dealerships.  NMHG Retail  includes the sale and service of Hyster and Yale lift
trucks and related service parts by wholly owned retail dealerships.

NMHG  Wholesale  derives a portion of its revenues from  transactions  with NMHG
Retail.  The amount of these revenues,  which are derived based on similar third
party  transactions,  are  indicated  in the  following  table on the line "NMHG
Eliminations" in the revenues section.  No other intersegment sales transactions
occur.

On January 1, 2000, NACCO Industries,  Inc. began charging fees to its operating
subsidiaries  for  services  provided  by  the  corporate  headquarters,   which
represents  most of the  parent  company's  operating  expenses.  The 2000 first
quarter pre-tax fee of $2.5 million was charged to the operating  segments based
on fees  incurred on their  behalf,  including  services  performed for each, as
follows: NMHG Wholesale: $1.6 million, Housewares: $0.6 million and NACoal: $0.3
million. Each of the segments has included this charge on the line Other-net. As
a result of these fees,  the parent  company's net loss for the first quarter of
2000 was $0.3  million,  compared  with a net loss of $2.3  million in the first
quarter of 1999. These fees are expected to continue for the remaining  quarters
of 2000 in amounts that are comparable to the first quarter of 2000.

compared with the first quarter of 1999:

                                    ========  =======   ======
</TABLE>


Revenues  increased  as a  result  of unit  and  service  parts  volume  growth,
primarily in the Americas,  partially  offset by unfavorable  sales mix, adverse
currency effects and lower sales prices.  Worldwide volume increased 9.7 percent
to 21,193  units  shipped  during the first  quarter of 2000 from  19,319  units
shipped  during the first  quarter  of 1999.  Revenues  declined  as a result of
adverse currency effects primarily due to transactions denominated in a weakened
Euro. Lower sales prices were primarily the result of aggressive  competition in
the Americas.

Operating profit  improvements from volume growth and  manufacturing  efficiency
were more than offset by (i) a  reduction  in the average  sales  price,  (ii) a
shift in mix to lower  margin  units and  (iii)  increased  operating  expenses,
primarily from increased product  development and marketing efforts.  Net income
declined as a result of these factors and due to a $1.0 million after-tax charge
from NACCO for services provided by the parent company.

The backlog  level has  increased  to 23,200 units at March 31, 2000 from 21,500
units at December  31, 1999 and 18,100  units at March 31,  1999.  The growth is
primarily due to increased incoming orders in the Americas.

</TABLE>

Revenues increased primarily due to acquisitions of retail dealerships  combined
with volume growth from comparable dealerships,  partially offset by lower sales
prices,  adverse  currency  effects  and  an  increase  in  the  elimination  of
intercompany  shipments from NMHG  Wholesale to NMHG Retail.  Operating loss and
net loss were  comparable  to the prior  year  first  quarter  due to  continued
integration,  interest,  amortization  and  administrative  costs  necessary  to
support NMHG Retail.

FINANCIAL REVIEW - continued

Interest  expense  increased for both NMHG  Consolidated and NMHG Retail for the
three  months  ended March 31,  2000 as compared  with the same period last year
primarily  due to increased  debt levels  necessary to support  acquisitions  of
retail  dealerships.  NMHG  Consolidated  other-net expense for the three months
ended March 31, 2000  increased  primarily  due to the first quarter 2000 fee of
$1.6 million ($1.0 million after-tax) charged by NACCO, as discussed previously.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Expenditures  for  property,  plant and  equipment  were $11.4  million for NMHG
Wholesale  and $4.8  million  for NMHG Retail  during the first three  months of
2000. These capital  expenditures  include  investments in information  systems,
tooling for new products, machinery, equipment and lease and rental fleet. It is
estimated  that NMHG's  capital  expenditures  for the remainder of 2000 will be
approximately $45.0 million for NMHG Wholesale and $4.8 million for NMHG Retail.
These  planned  expenditures  relate  primarily to  investments  in  information
systems,  a plant  expansion  in Mexico,  tooling for new  products,  machinery,
equipment and retail lease and rental fleet.  During the remainder of 2000, NMHG
anticipates continuing investments in business acquisitions in amounts which may
exceed the amount  invested in the first  quarter of 2000 of $3.8  million.  The
principal  sources of financing for these capital  expenditures and acquisitions
are internally generated funds and bank borrowings.

NMHG Wholesale has a $350.0 million  revolving  credit facility ("the Facility")
that expires June 2002, but may be extended annually, for one-year periods, with
the consent of the bank group. In addition,  the Facility has  performance-based
pricing  which  sets  interest  rates  based  upon the  achievement  of  certain
financial  performance  targets.  The Facility permits NMHG Wholesale to advance
funds to NMHG Retail.  Advances from NMHG  Wholesale are the primary  sources of
financing for NMHG Retail.  At March 31, 2000, NMHG had available $123.7 million
of its  $350.0  million  revolving  credit  facility.  NMHG  also  has  separate
facilities with  availability,  net of limitations,  of $40.8 million,  of which
$25.3  million  was  available  at  March  31,  2000  and  maintains  additional
uncommitted  lines of credit,  of which $21.6 million was available at March 31,
2000.  NMHG  believes  that  funds  available  under its credit  facilities  and
operating  cash flows are  sufficient to finance all of its operating  needs and
commitments arising during the foreseeable future.

NACCO HOUSEWARES GROUP
- ----------------------

Because  the  housewares  business  is  seasonal,  a majority  of  revenues  and
operating  profit  occurs in the  second  half of the year  when  sales of small
electric  appliances to retailers and consumers  increase  significantly for the
fall holiday selling season.

NACCO HOUSEWARES GROUP - continued

FINANCIAL REVIEW - continued

Housewares' revenues improved in the first quarter of 2000 primarily due to unit
volume growth at HB*PS, especially for indoor grills, blenders and slow cookers.
However,  increased operating profit from volume growth was completely offset by
price  reductions and increased  manufacturing  and other operating  costs.  The
average  sales  price  continued  to  decline  in the first  quarter  of 2000 as
compared  with  the  first  quarter  of  1999  due  to  increased   competition.
Manufacturing  costs  increased  primarily due to (i)  increased  transportation
costs and (ii) continued start-up expenses  associated with the new consolidated
distribution center in Memphis. Other operating expenses increased primarily due
to (i) development  costs  associated  with the GE-brand  products to be sold to
Wal*Mart  beginning later in 2000 and (ii) increased general and  administrative
expenses, partially offset by gains from the sale of assets. Net income declined
as a  result  of the  factors  affecting  operating  profit  and a $0.4  million
after-tax charge from NACCO for services provided by the parent company.

KCI's  revenues and net loss  improved  slightly in the first quarter of 2000 as
compared  with the first  quarter  of 1999,  as a result of an  increase  in the
number of customer  transactions  and improved gross  margins.  KCI operated 150
stores  at March  31,  2000  compared  with 143  stores  at the end of the first
quarter of 1999.

Other  Income and Expense  and Income  Taxes:  The  components  of other  income
(expense)  and the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31 are as
follows:

</TABLE>


Effective tax rate      40.7%     42.9%

The increase in Other-net  expense is due to the first  quarter 2000 fee of $0.6
million ($0.4 million after-tax) charged by NACCO, as discussed previously.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Housewares'  expenditures  for property,  plant and equipment  were $5.9 million
during the first three months of 2000 and are  estimated to be $25.4 million for
the remainder of 2000.  These  planned  capital  expenditures  are primarily for
tooling and equipment designed for new products, including the GE-brand products
to be sold to  Wal*Mart,  as well as tooling  and  equipment  intended to reduce
manufacturing  costs and  increase  efficiency.  These  expenditures  are funded
primarily from internally generated funds and short-term borrowings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - continued

HB*PS'  credit  agreement  provides  for a  revolving  credit  facility  ("HB*PS
Facility") that: (i) permits  advances up to $160.0 million,  (ii) is secured by
substantially all of HB*PS' assets, (iii) provides lower interest rates if HB*PS
achieves  certain  interest  coverage  ratios and (iv) allows for interest rates
quoted under a competitive bid option.  The HB*PS Facility  expires in May 2003.
At March 31, 2000,  HB*PS had $55.7 million  available  under this facility.  In
addition, HB*PS has separate uncommitted facilities that permitted $16.2 million
of additional borrowings at March 31, 2000.

The HB*PS Facility permits HB*PS to advance up to $10.0 million to KCI. Advances
from HB*PS are the primary  sources of financing  for KCI.  Housewares  believes
that funds  available  under its credit  facilities and operating cash flows are
sufficient to finance all of its operating needs and commitments  arising during
the foreseeable future.

THE NORTH AMERICAN COAL CORPORATION
- -----------------------------------


NACoal mines and markets lignite for use primarily as fuel for power  generation
by electric utilities.  The lignite is surface mined in North Dakota,  Texas and
Louisiana.  Total coal reserves  approximate  1.9 billion tons, with 1.0 billion
tons committed to electric utility  customers  pursuant to long-term  contracts.
NACoal operates five lignite mines,  including three project mining subsidiaries
("Coteau," "Falkirk" and "Sabine"), a NACoal division ("San Miguel") and a joint
venture ("Red River").  NACoal also provides dragline mining services  ("Florida
dragline  operations") for a limerock quarry near Miami,  Florida. The operating
results  for the  Florida  dragline  operations,  San  Miguel  and Red River are
included in Other mining operations.

During  1997,  the  Mississippi  Lignite  Mining  Company  was formed as a joint
venture between NACoal and Phillips Coal Company.  This joint venture,  in which
NACoal has a 25 percent interest,  was formed to develop and mine lignite at the
Red Hills lignite mine near Ackerman, Mississippi.  Development of the mine site
began in 1998 and has  continued  through  the first  quarter  of 2000.  Initial
production  is  expected  to begin  during  the fourth  quarter of 2000.  NACoal
accounts for its minority  ownership in the  Mississippi  Lignite Mining Company
using the equity method of accounting.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

NACoal's three project mining subsidiaries (Coteau,  Falkirk and Sabine),  which
represent a significant portion of NACoal's operations, mine lignite for utility
customers  pursuant to long-term  contracts at a price based on actual cost plus
an  agreed  pre-tax  profit  per  ton.  Due to the  cost-plus  nature  of  these
contracts,  revenues  and  operating  profits  are  affected  by  increases  and
decreases  in  operating  costs,  as well as by tons  sold.  Net income of these
project  mines,  however,  is not  significantly  affected  by  changes  in such
operating costs, which include costs of operations, interest expense and certain
other items.  Because of the nature of the  contracts at these mines,  operating
results are best analyzed in terms of lignite tons sold, income before taxes and
net income.

Lignite tons sold by NACoal's  operating  lignite  mines were as follows for the
three months ended March 31:

FINANCIAL REVIEW - continued

Revenues  for the first  quarter of 2000  increased  as compared  with the first
quarter of 1999 primarily due to increased tonnage volume at each of the project
mines,  partially  reduced  by lower  pass-through  costs at  Sabine.  Increased
tonnage  volume in the first  quarter of 2000 was the  result of higher  overall
customer  requirements,  compared with the first  quarter of 1999,  when outages
occurred at two customer power plants.

Income  before taxes for the first quarter of 2000 declined as compared with the
first quarter of 1999 primarily due to increased  maintenance  and fuel costs at
San Miguel.  Net income in the first quarter of 1999 included the recognition of
an after-tax  cumulative  effect charge of $1.2 million for mine start-up  costs
previously capitalized. Excluding this charge, net income declined primarily due
to the increased costs at the San Miguel mine.

Other  Income and Expense  and Income  Taxes:  The  components  of other  income
(expense)  and the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31 are as
follows:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Expenditures  for  property,  plant and equipment  were $2.0 million  during the
first three months of 2000. It is estimated that NACoal's  capital  expenditures
for the remainder of 2000 will be $29.4 million,  of which $29.2 million relates
to  the  development,  establishment  and  improvement  of  the  project  mining
subsidiaries'  mines and are financed or  guaranteed  by the utility  customers.
Also during the first three months of 2000,  NACoal invested $2.9 million in the
Mississippi Lignite Mining Company.

NACoal has in place a $50.0 million  revolving credit  facility.  The expiration
date of this  facility,  which  currently  is  September  2002,  can be extended
annually for one additional year with the consent of the bank group.  NACoal had
$27.0 million of its revolving credit facility available at March 31, 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - continued

The financing of the project mining  subsidiaries,  which is either  provided or
guaranteed by the utility customers,  includes long-term equipment leases, notes
payable and non-interest-bearing advances from customers. The obligations of the
project mining  subsidiaries do not affect the short-term or long-term liquidity
of NACoal and are without recourse to NACCO or NACoal.  These arrangements allow
the project mining  subsidiaries  to pay dividends to NACoal in amounts equal to
their earnings.

NACoal's  capital  structure,  excluding  the project  mining  subsidiaries,  is
presented below:

The  increase in Other net tangible  assets is  primarily  due to a $2.9 million
increase in the investment in the  Mississippi  Lignite joint venture and a $4.8
million  reduction in accounts  payable and  intercompany  payables.  Borrowings
increased to finance  investments in the  Mississippi  Lignite joint venture and
loans made to NACCO.

NACCO AND OTHER
- ---------------

FINANCIAL REVIEW

NACCO and Other includes the parent company operations and Bellaire  Corporation
("Bellaire"),  a non-operating subsidiary of NACCO. While Bellaire's results are
immaterial,  it has significant  long-term  liabilities related to closed mines,
primarily  from former eastern U.S.  underground  coal-mining  activities.  Cash
payments related to Bellaire's  obligations,  net of internally  generated cash,
are funded by NACCO and historically have not been material.

The results of operations at NACCO and Other were as follows for the three
months ended March 31:

<TABLE>

                               2000    1999

Other income (expense), net   $  2.1  $  (.2)
Net loss                      $  (.3) $ (2.3)
</TABLE>


During the first quarter of 2000,  the parent  company  began  charging fees for
services provided to the operating subsidiaries. Other income (expense), net and
net loss have been reduced by these fees which  totaled $2.5 million  pre-tax in
the first quarter of 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Although  NACCO's   subsidiaries   have  entered  into   substantial   borrowing
agreements, NACCO has not guaranteed the long-term debt or any borrowings of its
subsidiaries.  The  borrowing  agreements at NMHG and  Housewares  allow for the
payment to NACCO of dividends and advances  under certain  circumstances.  There
are no restrictions on the transfer of assets from NACoal.  Dividends,  advances
and management  fees from its  subsidiaries  are the primary sources of cash for
NACCO.

NACCO's consolidated capital structure is presented below:

NACCO AND OTHER - continued

FINANCIAL REVIEW - continued

The Company  believes it can  adequately  meet all of its current and  long-term
commitments and operating needs. This outlook stems from amounts available under
revolving credit  facilities and the utility  customers'  funding of the project
mining subsidiaries.

EFFECTS OF FOREIGN CURRENCY

NMHG  and  Housewares  operate   internationally  and  enter  into  transactions
denominated  in  foreign  currencies.  As such,  the  Company  is subject to the
variability  that arises from  exchange rate  movements.  The effects of foreign
currency  fluctuations on revenues,  operating income and net income at NMHG are
disclosed  above.  At  Housewares,  foreign  currency  effects had an immaterial
impact on operating  results  between  comparable  periods of 2000 and 1999. See
Item 3, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk."

EURO CONVERSION

See the Company's 1999 Annual Report,  which is  incorporated  by reference into
the  Company's  Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended  December  31,  1999,  for a
summary of the Euro Conversion.  The Company does not anticipate that the use of
the Euro will  materially  affect the  Company's  foreign  exchange  and hedging
activities  or the  Company's  use of  derivative  instruments,  or will  have a
material  adverse  effect on  operating  results  or cash  flows.  However,  the
ultimate effect of the Euro on competition due to price transparency and foreign
currency risk cannot yet be determined and may have an adverse effect,  possibly
material,  on the  Company's  operations,  financial  position  or  cash  flows.
Conversely,  the Euro may also have positive  effects,  such as reduced  foreign
currency risk, lower costs due to reduced hedging  activity,  and reduced prices
of raw materials  resulting  from increased  competition  among  suppliers.  The
Company continues to monitor and assess the potential risks imposed by the Euro.

OUTLOOK

NMHG:  NMHG expects the lift truck industry to increase  wholesale  shipments in
2000 in all  three  geographic  markets,  Americas,  Europe,  and  Asia-Pacific,
compared  with 1999,  as a result of worldwide  economic  growth.  NMHG hopes to
improve product profitability in 2000 through the combination of a first quarter
across-the-board  price  increase in the  Americas  and ongoing  cost  reduction
programs.  While NMHG  expects  to expand  selectively  its retail  distribution
network in 2000, primarily in Europe and Asia-Pacific,  NMHG's operational focus
will be on improving the profitability of its existing wholly owned dealerships.
However, NMHG may continue to incur losses in 2000 related to existing and newly
acquired dealerships and the elimination of intercompany profits.

Housewares:  HB*PS expects to complete the transfer of production  activities to
its Mexican  facilities before the end of the year. HB*PS also expects increased
efficiency  during  the year at its  Mexican  manufacturing  facilities  and new
distribution center in Memphis.  HB*PS anticipates  continued start-up costs for
developing General Electric-brand products for Wal*Mart, with the first GE-brand
products  expected  to be  introduced  later in 2000.  KCI  expects to  continue
focusing on increasing  store sales and  profitability,  developing its Internet
business and testing its new Gadgets & More(R) store concept.


<PAGE>



OUTLOOK - continued

NACoal:  NACoal expects that customer demand for lignite over the remaining nine
months of 2000 will be  slightly  above  1999  levels.  Royalty  income  for the
remaining  three  quarters of 2000 is expected to be  consistent  with the first
quarter of 2000. NACoal also anticipates  increased costs at its San Miguel mine
in 2000  compared  with 1999,  and  continued  expenses for the  development  of
international mining opportunities and the new Red Hills mine in Mississippi, in
which it owns a 25 percent  interest.  The Red Hills mine is  expected  to begin
production in the fourth quarter of 2000.

affect  lignite  deliveries  to  customers,  (3) costs to  pursue  international
opportunities  and (4) delays in the start-up of the Mississippi  Lignite Mining
Company.

Comments of
Alfred M. Rankin, Jr.
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
Annual Meeting of Stockholders

May 10, 2000

         This morning I will summarize some of the key messages  contained in my
letter in the 1999 NACCO  Industries  annual report and provide a perspective on
NACCO's first quarter and on NACCO's  outlook.  I want to emphasize that some of
my comments include forward looking statements.  Factors that could cause actual
results  to differ  from these  forward  looking  statements  are  described  in
Management's Discussion and Analysis on page 38 of the annual report.

         Despite record revenues of $2.6 billion,  1999 earnings fell sharply to
$53.1 million,  compared with $102.3 million in 1998, a year which was by a very
long margin our best ever.

         Several factors affected results in each business.

         At NACCO Materials  Handling Group,  net income declined $51.4 million.
Changes in foreign  currency  exchange rates,  including a strengthened  yen and
weakened  Euro,  had a highly  adverse  impact  on  pricing  and costs at NMHG's
wholesale operations,  where net income was down $38.2 million. In addition, our
Greenville  manufacturing  facilities were shut down for 11 days due to flooding
associated with Hurricane Floyd.  Further,  as part of our efforts to strengthen
our wholesale market position, we incurred expenses in connection with acquiring
selected retail dealerships.  These acquisitions and the associated eliminations
led to losses of $15.3 million for NMHG's retail  operations in 1999,  with much
of this  related  to  acquisition  costs  and  accounting  expenses,  as well as
start-up, integration and investment programs.

         At NACCO  Housewares  Group, on the other hand, net income increased by
$6.0 million to a record $21.2 million despite  expenses related to transferring
manufacturing to Mexico, the phase-in of a new distribution  center and expenses
associated with developing products for the new Wal-Mart/General  Electric brand
program.

         At North American Coal, 1999 income decreased $3.8 million,  reflecting
lower  royalty  payments,  decreased  lignite tons sold,  due largely to several
customer power plant outages, increased costs at our San Miguel mine, and a $1.2
million  charge  required by a new  accounting  pronouncement  to write off mine
start-up costs previously capitalized.

         While many of these same factors  continued to affect our businesses in
the  first  quarter  of 2000,  we have  begun to see a  positive  upward  trend,
especially  compared  with the  fourth  quarter  of 1999 at NMHG  and the  first
quarter of 1999 at NACCO Housewares Group.

     On the NMHG wholesale side,  first quarter results improved by $2.2 million
over the fourth quarter of 1999. Our cost reduction  programs  continue to yield
significant tangible benefits. These programs in manufacturing include our Value
Improvement and Demand Flow Technology  programs as well as our low-cost Mexican
component  manufacturing  plant,  which is being expanded this year. We are also
developing new purchasing and component commonality programs, which we expect to
help reduce material and manufacturing costs in future years.

         We  are  also   dedicating  more  resources  at  NMHG  to  new  product
development as part of our program to bring new products to market more quickly.
For example, in 1999 NMHG successfully introduced new 3.5 to 5.5 ton Yale(R) and
Hyster(R) counterbalanced lift trucks featuring improved performance, ergonomics
and ease of service.  We also introduced new warehouse  trucks,  including reach
trucks and order pickers.

         Looking  forward,  at the wholesale  business we  anticipate  continued
strong demand worldwide for lift trucks -- indeed,  stronger than in 1999 -- and
improved product mix in 2000. We are hopeful that our cost reduction strategies,
coupled with a first quarter 3 percent price increase in the Americas, a portion
of which  appears  to be holding at the retail  level,  will help  mitigate  the
impact  of  foreign  currency  valuation  on  profitability.  However,  currency
continues  to remain a major issue this year with the Euro  currently  at a deep
low of 89 cents per Euro and the yen currently at a strong 109 to the dollar.

         Our hedging  programs  are  designed to  mitigate  short-term  currency
fluctuations that affect purchased  material costs, but not to offset the longer
term dramatic  currency  fluctuations that occurred in 1999. We are not assuming
currencies will improve. Rather, we are redoubling our cost reduction efforts.

         On NMHG's  retail side, we feel strongly that our strategy of acquiring
selected  dealerships will have significant  long-term benefits,  especially for
increased  volume on the  wholesale  side of the  business.  These  acquisitions
should help  improve  market  share in  countries  where we have a lower  market
share,  such  as  in  Germany  or  France,  and  where  either  Hyster  or  Yale
individually have a lower market share, such as Yale in Holland and the UK.

         First quarter 2000 results for NMHG's  retail  business also indicate a
positive trend. The loss in the first quarter of 2000 was $3.0 million, compared
with $7.2  million  in the 4th  quarter of 1999.  And,  while we expect to incur
losses in 2000, with the size dependent on the number of additional acquisitions
made during the year, we also expect to reduce retail  operating losses over the
coming quarters.

         At  Hamilton  Beach  Proctor-Silex,  our  efforts to drive unit  volume
growth  have been very  successful.  Unit  volume grew 8 percent in 1999 to 39.4
million  units.  Volume  continued to increase in the first  quarter of 2000, as
well. Significantly,  much of this growth has been in the higher margin "better"
and "best" product categories.

         The most  significant  event  for  NACCO  Housewares  Group in 1999 was
Wal-Mart's  selection  of  Hamilton   Beach/Proctor-Silex   as  its  partner  in
developing and producing a new line of General Electric branded appliances to be
sold  exclusively  at Wal-Mart  later in 2000.  This  exciting  program has very
significant  implications  for  future  volume  and  profit.  We will be working
closely with Wal-Mart to realize the GE brand's  potential in the small electric
appliance market.

         During 1999 Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex continued moving manufacturing
operations  to Mexico.  We  anticipate  that these  relocation  programs will be
fundamentally  completed  before  the end of the year and that  efficiencies  in
Mexico's new  operations  will improve  throughout  the year.  In 1999,  we also
opened a new distribution  center in Memphis to serve our customers better,  and
efficiencies  are improving there as well. We anticipate  substantial  long-term
cost savings from these programs.

         At Kitchen Collection, sales and margins are continuing to grow through
a  multi-faceted  strategy of ongoing  marketing  programs,  additional  factory
outlet stores, an enhanced e-commerce kitchen collection web site, and new store
formats,  such as the  Gadgets & More(R)  store  recently  opened at the Mall of
America in Minnesota.

         At North American Coal, our five operating mines continued to deliver a
consistent stream of earnings and cash flow in 1999.  Development of the new Red
Hills lignite mine near  Ackerman,  Mississippi,  focused on building the mine's
infrastructure.  We own a 25 percent  interest  in this  mine,  which is a joint
venture with Phillips Coal Company.  We expect to begin mining operations in the
fourth quarter of this year, with production  eventually reaching 3 million tons
annually.

         North  American  Coal's  industry   leadership  in  both  environmental
protection  and  on-the-job  safety  was  recognized  with 6 awards in 1999 from
various  local,  state and  national  organizations.  These  awards are a strong
reaffirmation of our commitment to preserving the environment and protecting the
health and safety of our employees.

         We expect North American Coal's operating mines to continue  generating
steady income and substantial free cash flow in 2000.  Royalty income related to
the  underground  mining  which the  company  left over 10 years ago will likely
continue at its current low level over  future  quarters.  We believe  there are
significant opportunities for growth through joint ventures we are developing in
India and Turkey,  and while  progress is slower than we might wish,  we hope to
finalize at least one of these power plant/mining projects sometime this year.

         In summary,  we are  confident  the programs in place at our  operating
subsidiaries will enable them to achieve improved results later this year and in
the years  ahead.  The  Wal-Mart-GE  program at NACCO  Housewares  Group has the
potential  for  significant  top and bottom line  growth  over the next  several
years. NACCO Materials Handling Group's  strengthening retail dealership network
with its  prospects for  increased  wholesale  market share should lead to sound
revenue and net income growth  potential.  And North American  Coal's  prospects
this year for financial  closure on at least one of three  international  mining
projects are very encouraging.  In addition, cost reduction programs should have
a significant impact at NMHG and Housewares as the year moves forward.

         In  closing,  I want to  emphasize  that the  overriding  goal of NACCO
Industries  management  and our board of directors is delivering  sound earnings
returns, and thus increased market value of our shares, to our stockholders over
the long term. At the current time, small capitalization companies in industries
such as ours  are  dramatically  out of favor  in the  market.  Our hope is that
eventually  our  current  and  prospective  multiples  will be more in line with
market multiples more fully and with the underlying value of our businesses.  To
encourage this  development,  we are continuing an active program which outlines
the company's prospects to potential investors.

         At this time I want  particularly  to welcome Dave Hoag to our board of
directors.  Dave is chairman of the Federal  Reserve Bank of  Cleveland  and the
retired chairman and chief executive officer of The LTV Corporation.

         This  concludes  my  formal  remarks.  I will be  happy to  answer  any
questions you may have.
