                        ---------------------------------




To the Board of Directors
Rauch Industries, Inc.:


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Rauch
Industries, Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated
statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Rauch Industries,
Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                      ---



1.   Accounting Policies:
     -------------------

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The consolidated financial statements include the
     accounts of Rauch Industries, Inc. and its Subsidiaries, Northstar
     Corporation, RI Acquisition, Inc. (d/b/a Holiday Products) and Rochard,
     Inc. In consolidation, all significant intercompany balances and
     transactions are eliminated.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
     the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
     and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from
     those estimates (see Note 2).


     INCOME RECOGNITION - Sales are invoiced and income is recognized in the
     financial statements when merchandise is shipped.

     INVENTORIES - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost
     is determined by the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method.

     PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION - Property and equipment are carried
     at cost. Depreciation is computed primarily using the straight-line method.
     The estimated useful lives of the respective assets used in computing

1.   Accounting Policies, continued:
     -------------------

     CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - Financial
     instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
     credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and trade
     receivables. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high
     credit quality financial institutions. At December 31, 1995 and 1994,
     substantially all cash and cash equivalents were maintained by a single
     major financial institution. The Company markets its products primarily to
     customers in the retail sector. The Company closely monitors the
     creditworthiness of its customers and generally requires no collateral from
     its customers. Insurance is maintained to reduce overall credit risk. The
     Company's ability to collect outstanding trade receivables is dependent
     upon the retail economic environment. The Company does not believe that it
     is dependent on any single customer. Sales to two customers accounted for
     approximately 33% of sales in 1995, 32% of sales in 1994 and 27% of sales
     in 1993. Accounts receivable from two customers accounted for approximately
     62% and 56% of total accounts receivable at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
     respectively.


     INCOME TAXES - The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets
     for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included
     in either the financial statements or tax returns, but not both. Deferred
     tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between
     financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted
     tax rates in effect for the year in which the difference is expected to
     reverse.


     EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE - Earnings per common share is based on the
     weighted average number of shares outstanding each year (3,695,563 in 1995,
     1994 and 1993.)


     RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain amounts in the 1994 financial statements have
     been reclassified to conform with 1995 presentation.

2.   Recoverable from Insurance Carrier:
     ----------------------------------

     On October 19, 1994, a fire destroyed the Company's 677,000 square-foot
     facility located in Cramerton, North Carolina. The building warehoused a
     substantial portion of the Company's finished goods inventory for the 1994
     Christmas season in anticipation of shipment to customers. The building was
     also used to manufacture garland and non-woven fabric. The Company had
     insurance on the building, equipment and raw materials at replacement
     value. The finished goods inventory was insured at net selling pric e. In
     addition, the Company also carried business interruption insurance. The
     Company's insurance coverage limits total recovery in one policy year to an
     amount not to exceed approximately $60,000,000.

2.   Recoverable from Insurance Carrier, continued:
     ----------------------------------

     During 1995, the Company settled with the insurance carrier on the
     inventory and equipment claims for $19.8 million, including a $10 million
     advance received in 1994, resulting in a gain of $6,274,730. As of December
     31, 1995, the Company has amounts recoverable from the insurance carrier
     totaling $837,902 in excess of amounts received. This amount represents the
     net book value of the building destroyed and business interruption costs
     incurred. The final resolution of the remaining insurance claim is
     dependent upon future events, the outcome of which are not fully
     determinable at the present time. Accordingly, no additional amount due
     from the insurance carrier has been recorded as of December 31, 1995.

</TABLE>

     During 1995, the Company entered into a new loan agreement allowing
     long-term borrowings up to $12.8 million and short-term borrowings up to
     $40.0 million. Short-term borrowings bear interest at approximately the
     bank's certificate of deposit rate. Maximum short-term borrowings
     outstanding at any time during the year was $26.1 million in 1995, $30.8
     million in 1994 and $22.4 million in 1993. Daily average borrowings were
     $10.6 million in 1995, and 1994 and $7.0 million in 1993 at daily weighted
     average interest rates of 6.6%, 5.8% and 4.0%, respectively. The bank's
     certificate of deposit rate was 5.9% at December 31, 1995.


     The bank loan agreement contains various covenants, the most restrictive
     being a limitation on leasing activities.


     Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank
     loans with similar terms and average maturities, the carrying value of
     long-term debt approximates the fair value at December 31, 1995.

12.  Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived 
     ---------------------------------------------------------------------
     Assets to be Disposed Of:
     ------------------------

     Effective January 1, 1996, the Company will be required to implement SFAS
     No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
     Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of". SFAS No. 121 requires that an
     impairment loss be recorded for long-lived assets, such as property and
     equipment, or goodwill, if circumstances indicate that the carrying value
     of an asset may not be recoverable. The impact of adopting this
     pronouncement has not been determined, but is not expected to be material
     to the Company's financial statements.


13.  Subsequent Event, Sale of Company:
     ---------------------------------

     On February 15, 1996 the board of directors and stockholders approved the
     sale of all outstanding stock of the company for approximately $48 million
     ($13 per share). In addition to the shares purchased, the acquiring company
     purchased from the employees all stock options and stock appreciation
     rights outstanding at December 31, 1995.

Industries, Inc. ("Rauch"), (the "Agreement"), on February 15, 1996, the
Registrant through its wholly-owned subsidiary SYR acquired the outstanding
shares of Rauch. The consideration was $13 per share of Rauch common stock owned
by shareholders of record on January 16, 1996. The transaction was paid with
approximately $47.8 million in cash by the Registrant from funds available under
a letter of credit with the Wachovia Bank of North Carolina, N.A.

assumptions set forth below and in the notes to the pro forma unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements. The pro forma unaudited condensed
consolidated income statement for the year ended December 31, 1995 reflects the
acquisition as if it occurred on January 1, 1995. The pro forma unaudited
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1995 reflects the

consummated on either of the foregoing dates or which may be attained in the
future.

     The pro forma unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should
