              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                   Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999

(1)      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
         include the accounts of Carlisle Companies Incorporated and its
         wholly-owned subsidiaries (together, the "Company"). Intercompany
         transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The
         unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the
         Securities and Exchange Commission and, as such, do not include all
         information required by generally accepted accounting principles.
         However, in the opinion of the Company, these financial statements
         contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring
         adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial statements for
         the interim period presented herein. Results of operations for the
         three-month period ended March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative
         of the operating results for the full year.

         While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate
         to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these
         financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
         statements and notes included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report to
         Stockholders. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year
         information in order to conform to 2000 presentation.

(2)      The components of inventories are as follows:

                                                         MARCH 31,    Dec. 31,

(3)      Diluted earnings per share of common stock are based on the weighted
         average number of shares outstanding of 30,525,887 for the three months
         ended March 31, 2000 assuming the exercise of dilutive stock options.

(4)      In January 1999, the Company announced the reduction of its interest in
         its perishable cargo business, consisting of its container leasing
         joint venture and container manufacturing operations. On January 28,
         1999 the Company sold 85% of its interest in its leasing joint venture.
         In connection with the reduction in the Company's interest in the
         leasing joint venture, the Company suspended operations at its
         container manufacturing facility. As a result, the Company recognized a
         pretax gain of $16.6 million in the first quarter of 1999. These
         operations are associated with the Company's General Industry (All
         Other) segment.

         In conjunction with the implementation of the 1999 business plan, the
         Company completed certain product line realignments, manufacturing
         improvements and facility relocations and upgrades at


                                  Page 5 of 10
<PAGE>

         its operating businesses resulting in certain assets that are no longer
         required or will be reallocated. In the first quarter of 1999, the
         Company recognized a $15.9 million pretax charge related to these
         assets. Approximately 75% of this charge related to machinery and
         equipment primarily associated with the foodservice, roofing, tire and
         wheel and automotive components manufacturing operations, with the
         remainder related to goodwill and other intangible assets associated
         with acquisitions made in prior years. The amount of the charge of
         machinery and equipment was determined to be the excess of the recorded
         values over the estimated fair values. The fair values were determined
         using estimated market values or projected future discounted cash
         flows, whichever was deemed appropriated. The charge related to the
         intangible assets was determined as the excess of the recorded value
         over the projected future discounted cash flows.

         The net effect of the above items is reflected under the caption "gain
         on divestiture of business and other charges" on the face of the
         Company's Consolidated Statement of Earnings.

Statements.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Carlisle Companies Incorporated reported record sales for any quarter of $434
million, up 11% over 1999, and record first quarter net earnings of $25.5
million or $0.83 per share (diluted), an increase of 17% versus first quarter
1999 earnings of $21.8 million. Strong sales over 1999 were led by Carlisle Tire
& Wheel (Industrial Components), Carlisle Systems & Equipment (General
Industry), Carlisle SynTec (Construction Materials) and Carlisle FoodService
Products (General Industry). Market share gains and expanded product line
offerings were the primary factors drawing sales.

Earnings growth resulted from the increased sales, as well as the continued
focus on cost reduction and efficiency improvement programs across all
operations. Additionally, through continued implementation of tax savings
strategies throughout the Company, the effective tax rate has been further
reduced from 38% to 37%. The impact of this change is an additional $0.01 a
share.

Construction Materials' sales of $88 million were up 16% over 1999 first quarter
sales of $76 million. Sales to Carlisle SynTec's domestic roofing markets were
responsible for much of this increase. Despite inclement winter weather
conditions, Carlisle SynTec benefited from strong EPDM rubber membrane sales as
well as the continued growth of the Company's thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO)
membrane and insulation product lines. Segment earnings for the quarter rose 7%
versus 1999 first quarter earnings of $8.3 million. This increase reflects
higher sales levels impacted by raw material price increases and product mix.
The need to recover cost increases experienced over the last year resulted in
the announcement of a price increase on EPDM rubber membrane which took effect
April 1, 2000. In February 2000, the Company acquired the assets of DynAir,
Inc., a Canadian manufacturer of duct supplies to the heating, ventilation and
air conditioning market. This acquisition will complement the product offerings
of Carlisle Coatings & Waterproofing's existing business.

Industrial Components' sales increased 12% to $163 million versus 1999 first
quarter sales of $145 million. Carlisle Tire & Wheel exhibited a strong
performance as activity in the lawn and garden markets commenced for the spring
selling season. The brake and friction businesses also reported improved first
quarter sales with a strong improvement in earnings over 1999. Healthy sales to
original equipment manufacturers in the heavy friction business and
strengthening demand in the haulage/mining markets combined with margin
improvement to generate the overall improvement in the friction and brake
businesses. Sales at Tensolite's specialty cable and cable assembly businesses
also increased, fueled by a broad customer base and increased demand including a
recovery in aerospace markets. Segment earnings increased 20% to $24.5 million
over the 1999 first quarter. The earnings increase, beyond the rate of sales, is
largely attributable to cost reduction programs and efficiency programs.

Automotive Components' segment sales of $83 million, a record, reflect steady
demand as vehicle builds remained at record levels throughout the quarter.
Segment earnings of $7.2 million, grew 9% over first quarter 1999 as a result of
the Company's ability to adapt to persistent high volumes, coupled with the
continued reduction of inefficiencies related to the high demand. Good progress
is being made in managing controllable assets, especially in reduced working
capital needs.

General Industry segment sales of $100 million showed a 15% improvement over
1999 first quarter sales of $87 million. After eliminating the results of the
perishable cargo business, which was divested during the first quarter of 1999,
segment sales and earnings were up 40% and 36%, respectively, over last year.
Carlisle Systems & Equipment was the primary driver behind this increase as
Johnson Truck Bodies, acquired in May of 1999, continued to experience strong
demand from the home delivery markets it serves. In April of this year, the
Company announced the acquisition of Extract Technologies Limited, a leading
biotech/pharmaceutical systems provider, headquartered in Huddersfiled, England.
The Company will merge


                                  Page 7 of 10

Extract with Carlisle Barrier Systems to comprise Carlisle Pharmaceutical
Systems. Scherping Systems, the Company's cheese processing systems business,
has been able to capitalize on the robust demands of the cheese/dairy industry
to contribute to both sales and earnings. In addition, in March 2000, Scherping
completed the acquisition of Damrow Denmark and Damrow USA, global equipment
suppliers to the cheese industry. The acquisition of Damrow, coupled with the
recent acquisition of Innovative Engineering Ltd. of New Zealand, makes Carlisle
the leading global supplier of cheese manufacturing systems. Trail King's
specialty trailer business continues to benefit from strong demand in the
construction market, but diesel fuel price increases have dampened sales of
trailers to commercial haulers. Carlisle FoodService experienced robust sales
gains for the quarter from improved international sales. In addition, in April
of this year, Carlisle FoodService completed the acquisition of the Dura-Ware
Company, a manufacturer of commercial cookware and servingware for the
foodservice and hospitality markets. Segment earnings of $8.6 million, for the
quarter, were up 15% over first quarter 1999. The earnings increase was driven
by the increase in sales, particularly at Johnson Truck Bodies, as well as the
implementation of operational improvements at Carlisle Systems & Equipment and
Carlisle FoodService offset somewhat by softer margins at Trail King and
Carlisle Home Products.

ACQUISITIONS

In the first quarter, Carlisle completed two acquisitions; Damrow Denmark and
Damrow USA, global equipment suppliers to the cheese industry, and DynAir, Inc.,
a Canadian manufacturer of duct supplies to the HVAC market. In addition, two
acquisitions were completed in early April; Dura-Ware Company, a manufacturer of
commercial cookware and servingware for the foodservice and hospitality markets,
and Extract Technologies Limited, a leading biotech/pharmaceutical systems
provider, headquartered in Huddersfiled, England. On April 14, the acquisition
of the Tire and Wheel Consumer Products Division of Titan International, Inc.
was announced. The annualized rate of sales of these acquisitions is
approximately $175 million.

CASH FLOWS

Cash generated from operations for the first quarter was $21 million,
attributable to improved earnings and higher depreciation and amortization. For
the first quarter 1999, cash generated from operations and cash used in
investing activities reflect the impact of proceeds, net of a $39 million tax

                       RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

         The following table sets forth the Company's ratio of earnings to fixed
charges for periods indicated:

                                     3 Months
                                       ENDED         YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
                                     --------   --------------------------------
                                      3/31/00   1999   1998   1997   1996   1995
                                      -------   ----   ----   ----   ----   ----
Ratio of Earnings to
   Fixed Charges                       7.37     7.41   5.19   6.06   7.47   8.70

         For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges,
earnings are defined as earnings before income taxes plus fixed charges. Fixed
charges consist of interest expense (including capitalized interest) and the
portion of rental expense that is representative of the interest factor (deemed
to be one-third of minimum operating lease rentals). The earnings to fixed
charges calculation reflects the Company's proportionate share of income,
expense and fixed charges attributable to the Company's investment in
majority-owned unconsolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures.
