REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Partners of Fintube Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Fintube Limited
Partnership (a Delaware Limited Partnership) and subsidiaries as of December 31,
1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of income, partners'
capital and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Fintube Limited Partnership and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States.

                                                             ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP

FINTUBE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999, 1998 AND 1997

1.  OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION:

FORMATION

Fintube Limited Partnership (the Partnership) is a limited partnership
organized on July 19, 1991, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act. The Partnership's wholly-owned subsidiaries include TEKtube,
Kentube Engineered Products and Aletas y Birlos, S.A. de C.V. (AYB), a
Mexican entity. The General Partner is Division Fintube Corporation (DFC), an
Oklahoma corporation. DFC is also the Class B Limited Partner. In addition,
the Partnership owns 99 percent of Fintube Properties, LLC.

The Partnership has operations in Oklahoma, Mexico and Canada. Primary
operations include the application of fins and studs to tubes and the
manufacturing of heat economizers and retromizers. The manufacturing
operations are internally supported by a steel coil slitting division and a
tube mill. Principal markets are throughout the U.S., Asia and South America.
In 1999, 1998 and 1997, significant sales of manufacturing equipment were
made and the Partnership expects to make similar sales in future years.

SHARING RATIOS

Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, net income and net loss are
allocated as follows:

         1)   For each fiscal year in which the Partnership has net income, a
              preferred return will first be made to the Class B Limited Partner
              in an amount equal to the interest rate applicable to the
              revolving line of credit multiplied by the average daily Class B
              Limited Partner capital account. The remaining net income will be
              allocated to the General Partner and the Class A Limited Partners
              on a pro-rata basis based on their respective capital accounts.

         2)   For each fiscal year in which the Partnership has a net loss, it
              will be allocated to the General Partner and the Class A Limited
              Partners on a pro-rata basis based on their respective capital
              accounts. In no event shall the allocation of a net loss create or
              increase a negative capital account for any Limited Partner.

DISTRIBUTION PREFERENCE

The Class B Limited Partner has a preferred distribution right of $0,
$1,800,000 and $2,800,000 at December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on either
a straight-line or accelerated basis over the estimated useful lives (5-20
years) of the assets. Maintenance, repairs and betterments, including
replacement of minor items of physical properties are charged to expense. Major
additions to physical properties are capitalized. The cost of the assets retired
or sold is credited to the asset accounts and the related accumulated
depreciation is charged to the accumulated depreciation accounts. The gain or
loss from sale or retirement of property, if any, is included in the
consolidated statement of income. Property, plant and equipment consisted of the

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Partnership recognizes revenue upon shipment.

                                       F-8
<PAGE>

WARRANTY

The Partnership maintains a reserve for potential warranty claims based on
known conditions. Generally, the warranty period on all products is one to
two years and is limited to the replacement cost of the product.

ROYALTIES

The Partnership has four royalty agreements under which income is received
based on a percentage of the net selling price, as defined in the agreements,
of products manufactured under the agreements.

INCOME TAXES

The Partnership is not a taxable entity for federal and state income tax
purposes. As a partnership, the taxable income of the Partnership is included
in the taxable income of its partners. During 1999, 1998 and 1997, taxes of
$117,076, $115,267 and $114,849, respectively, were paid by the Partnership
on behalf of its Mexican subsidiary, AYB.

CONSOLIDATION

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the
Partnership and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Foreign currency transactions and financial statements are translated in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, "Foreign
Currency Translation." Assets and liabilities are translated to U.S. dollars
at the current exchange rate. Income and expense accounts are translated
using the weighted average exchange rate for the period. Adjustments arising
from translation of foreign financial statements are reflected in a
cumulative translation adjustment account in the partners' capital section of
the consolidated balance sheets. Transaction gains and losses are included in
net income.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The Partnership applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
(SFAS 130), "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS 130 requires reporting of
all nonowner changes in equity in a financial statement of the period for
which they are recognized. The Partnership discloses comprehensive income,
which consists of the foreign translation adjustment, in the consolidated
statements of partners' capital.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.  INVOLUNTARY CONVERSION OF NONMONETARY ASSETS:

On January 27, 1998, the Partnership suffered a structural fire at one of its
manufacturing facilities. The fire caused approximately $3.2 million in
damage to property, plant, equipment and inventory. Proceeds received from
the insurance carrier resulted in a gain of approximately $1.7 million. In
addition, the fire and subsequent building and equipment repairs affected
production capacity, resulting in an operating variance for 1998.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT:

Long-term debt consisted of the following at December 31:

All debt of the Partnership was repaid in conjunction with the purchase of
the Partnership's assets on January 1, 2000 (see Note 8).

5.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

PARTNERS' INCOME TAX PAYMENTS

The Partnership Agreement provides for quarterly distributions on or before
January 10, April 10, June 10 and September 10 to all partners in an amount
sufficient to pay all federal, state and local income tax liabilities
resulting from allocation of income.

ROLLUP TRANSACTION

The Class A Limited Partners have the option to initiate a tax-free rollup
transaction in which all partners would exchange their partnership interest
for an equivalent equity interest in a new corporation.

CLAIMS AND LITIGATION

The Partnership is involved in certain claims and pending litigation arising
from the normal conduct of business. Based on the present knowledge of the
facts, management believes the resolution of claims and pending litigation
will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's consolidated
financial statements.

6.  MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT IN PARTNERSHIP:

Certain key management personnel have purchased interests in the Partnership
under the provisions of a Management Equity Participation Plan. Purchases
prior to 1997 were financed through notes payable to the Partnership due in
2000 with interest payable annually at the lesser of a bank's prime rate or
ten percent. Effective January 1, 1997, two notes totaling $350,000 were
issued for Partnership interests. The new notes payable to the Partnership
are due in 2006 with interest payable at the lesser of a bank's prime rate or
ten percent. The notes are deducted from the partnership capital in the
consolidated balance sheets. Notes payable to the Partnership at December 31,
1999 and 1998, totaled $2,068,221. The Partnership applies variable
accounting to the plan. Compensation expense of $1,841,000, $0 and $0 was
recorded for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Throughout the term of the notes, the Partnership is obligated to repurchase
the interest of a participant in the event of death, termination or
withdrawal at a price based on the participant's purchase price or the
valuation formula provided in the agreement with the participant.

7.  RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN:

The Partnership sponsors a defined contribution benefit plan. The Partnership
may, on a discretionary basis, make contributions to the plan. In 1999, 1998
and 1997, Partnership contributions to the plan were approximately $0,
$165,000 and $180,000, respectively.

8.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT:

Effective January 1, 2000, a subsidiary of Lone Star Technologies, Inc.
purchased substantially all of the assets of the Partnership and its
subsidiaries for a base purchase price of $82 million plus a $2.5 million
adjustment for working capital. Of the purchase price, $20 million was paid
through the issuance of 760,237 shares of Lone Star common stock directly to
the selling partners. Promissory notes receivable from the Management Equity
Participation Plan of approximately $2 million were excluded from the
transaction. The Partnership's bank debt ($17 million as of January 3, 2000),
litigation and expenses incurred in conjunction with the sale of Fintube
Limited Partnership's assets to Lone Star, among other things, were excluded
from the transaction.

                        PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
                                  (UNAUDITED)


INTRODUCTION TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma financial information (the "Pro Forma
Financial Information") is based on the Financial Statements of Lone Star
Technologies, Inc. ("Lone Star") and Fintube Limited Partnership ("Fintube")
for the year ended December 31, 1999, which are included elsewhere in this
Prospectus, and has been prepared to illustrate the effects of the
transactions described below.

The following unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1999 give effect to the acquisition by Lone Star and its
subsidiaries of the assets of Fintube and its subsidiaries (the
"Acquisition"), and the issuance of the Lone Star common stock, as if such
transactions had occurred on January 1, 1999. The pro forma unaudited balance
sheet as of December 31, 1999 has been prepared as if the Acquisition of
Fintube had occurred on that date.

The Acquisition of Fintube will be accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. The total purchase costs of the Acquisition (approximately $85
million) have been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and
liabilities acquired based upon their respective fair values. The allocation
of the aggregate purchase price reflected in the Pro Forma Financial
Information is preliminary. The final allocation of the purchase price is
contingent upon the review for other intangible assets and an assessment of
the acquired net assets; however, that allocation is not expected to differ
materially from the preliminary allocation.

The Pro Forma Financial Information is based on the historical financial
statements of Lone Star and Fintube and the assumptions and adjustments
described in the accompanying notes. The unaudited pro forma statements of
operations do not purport to represent what Lone Star's results of operations
actually would have been if the Acquisition had occurred as of the date
indicated or what results will be for any future periods. The Pro Forma
Financial Information is based upon assumptions that Lone Star believes are
reasonable and should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements
and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

                  NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA BALANCE SHEET


(a)  Reflects the preliminary allocation of the purchase price for the
     Acquisition. The Acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase
     method of accounting. Lone Star has not yet determined the final allocation
     of the purchase price and, accordingly, the amounts shown below may differ
     from the amounts ultimately determined; however, that allocation is not
     expected to differ materially from the preliminary allocation.

     The preliminary pro forma allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

(b) The adjustment to stockholders equity consists of:

(c)  This adjustment reflects the elimination of historical Fintube other assets
     which were determined to have no fair market value and recognition of the
     deferred financing costs associated with the financing described in (d),
     below.
