                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)


Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

         The financial information for the quarters ended June 30, 1995
         and 1994 is unaudited; however, such information reflects
         normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of
         management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the
         interim periods.

         The results of operations for the interim periods are not
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
         the full year.

         The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited
         financial statements; but does not include all disclosures 
         required by generally accepted accounting principles.

Note 2:  Inventories

         Inventories are stated at the lower of Last-in, First-out
         (LIFO) cost or market.  The composition is as follows:

Note 3:          Notes Payable, Long-Term Debt and Current Maturities Thereof

                 Notes payable represents line of credit borrowings against a
                 $1,500,000 demand line of credit with interest at 1/2% over
                 the banks reference rate (a total of 9.5% at June 30, 1995).
                 The maximum allowable borrowings under the line of credit may
                 not exceed 75% of the eligible accounts receivable.

                 Substantially, all assets of the Company are pledged as
                 collateral for its borrowings.

                 On May 17, 1994 the Company refinanced its $3,350,000
                 Industrial Revenue Bond which now has an adjustable interest
                 rate (4.35% at June 30, 1995).  The interest rate and interest
                 periods are variable.  The 1994 Industrial Bond Series
                 requires the Company to maintain a letter of credit which
                 includes covenants requiring, among other financial covenants,
                 a current ratio ranging from 0.9:1 to 1.0:1 at various dates
                 and tangible net worth of $2,900,000 plus 70% of the net
                 earnings from May 17, 1994 to the date of determination.

                 Future scheduled maturities of long-term debts are due each

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATION



The following represents management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected the Company's financial position and
operating results during the periods included in the accompanying financial
statements.

Results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, compared with the
quarter ended June 30, 1994.  
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, were $8,643,000, up
         $818,000 or 10% compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1994.  Total
         shipments of extruded products in pounds were lower in the second
         quarter compared to the same period in 1994.  The primary reasons for
         the increase in net sales was the additional business in Light Gauge
         Thermoforming, change in the company's product mix and rising raw
         material prices.

         Net sales for the six month period were $16,776,000, up $1,319,000 or
         9% compared to the same period in 1994.  This increase is also due to
         the reasons mentioned above.

         Gross margin for the quarter, as a percentage of net sales, was 10.4%
         compared to 14.3% for 1994.  The decrease is primarily due to several
         new projects that came on board in the second quarter that the company
         invested extensive Sample and Development Costs, and due to the lower
         number of pounds processed and shipped during the period.

         Six month gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 12.3% in 1995
         compared to 12.6% for 1994 primarily due to the above mentioned
         reasons.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $75,000 for the
         quarter and $209,000 for the six month period in 1995 as compared to
         the same periods in 1994, which primarily relates to commissions on
         increased sales dollars and the addition of a new sales person.

         Interest and other expense decreased 58% for the quarter and 52% for
         the first 6 months of 1995 as compared to 1994.  This decline was
         primarily the result of the Company refinancing its Industrial Revenue
         bond in May of 1994 with more favorable interest rates.

         Net income for the second quarter was $57,000 or three cents per share
         versus $175,000 or eight cents for the same period in 1994.  For the
         six months ended June 30, 1995, net income was $291,000 or thirteen
         cents per share, compared to $277,000 or twelve cents ended June 30,
         1994.

                                                                          Page 7

         Liquidity and Capital Resources at June 30, 1995
                                        

         The Company's working capital increased $562,000 since December 31,
         1994 and its current ratio has improved from 1.19 to 1.0 at June 30,
         1994 to 1.22 to 1.0 at June 30, 1995. 

         Accounts receivable, which were $3,713,000 at June 30, 1995 and
         $3,026,000 at December 31, 1994 represents 40 days' sales outstanding  
         at June 30, 1995 and 26 days at December 31, 1994.  Sales are
         generally made with 30-day terms, however, certain customers have
         extended us beyond terms.

         Inventory quantities have decreased since December 31, 1994, however,
         inventory dollars have increased by $552,000.  The increase is
         primarily related to a shift in product mix and increased raw material
         prices.

         Accounts payable have increased $687,000 since December 31, 1994,
         primarily due to the increase in days' sales outstanding in
         receivables.

         The Company increased its borrowings on the line of credit by $100,000
         primarily due to the increase in days sales outstanding in receivables
         and due to capital expenditures made in the amount of $311,000.

         The Company's line of credit terms are described in Note 3 to the
         accompanying financial statements.

         The Company has not paid dividends since becoming publicly-held in
         1987.  At the present time management does not expect to pay dividends
         in the foreseeable future, as earnings will be reinvested in the
         business.  Also, as discussed in Note 3 of Notes to Financial
         Statements, a letter of credit agreement, to which the Company is a
         party supporting the Industrial Revenue Bonds, contains certain
         financial covenants which may effectively restrict the payment of
         dividends.  (See Note 3 of Notes to Financial Statements.)
