                 THE GENLYTE GROUP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               AS OF APRIL 4, 1998
                                   (Unaudited)
1.       Basis of Presentation
         The  financial   information  included  is  unaudited;   however,  such
         information  reflects  all  adjustments  (consisting  solely  of 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 three month  period  ended April 4,
         1998 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results to be expected for
         the full year.

2.       Effective  with  fiscal  years   beginning  after  December  15,  1997,
         companies are required to adopt the  Statement of Financial  Accounting
         Standards  (SFAS)  No.  130  "Reporting   Comprehensive   Income."  The
         Statement  establishes  standards  for the  reporting  and  display  of
         comprehensive  income  and  its  components  in a full  set of  general
         purpose  financial  statements.  The Statement  requires that all items
         that are  required  to be  recognized  under  accounting  standards  as
         components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement
         that  is  displayed  with  the  same   prominence  as  other  financial
         statements.   Comprehensive   income  includes  net  income  and  other
         comprehensive income, which comprises certain specific items previously
         reported directly in stockholders'  equity.  Other comprehensive income
         comprises items such as unrealized  gains and losses on debt and equity
         securities classified as available-for-sale securities, minimum pension
         liability adjustments and foreign currency translation adjustments. The
         adoption of SFAS No.130 will not have a material  impact on the way the
         Company reports or has reported its financial statements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

COMPARISON OF FIRST QUARTER 1998 TO FIRST QUARTER 1997

Genlyte's net sales for the first quarter of 1998 were $130.1  million,  a $16.8
million,  or 14.9  percent  increase  from the first  quarter  of 1997.  Each of
Genlyte's  major  product  lines grew during the first  quarter as a result of a
strong commercial  construction  market and increased demand for more commercial
space in the markets Genlyte serves.  Net income increased $2.7 million from the
first  quarter of 1997 to $6.1  million and earnings  per share  increased  73.1
percent from $.26 to $.45.

Cost of sales for the first quarter of 1998,  when compared to the first quarter
of 1997,  decreased  to 65.8  percent of sales from 66.2  percent as the company
continued its focus on improving productivity and moving production to its lower
cost facilities.  Selling,  general and administrative expenses decreased during
the first  quarter of 1998 to 25.2  percent of sales,  down from 27.5 percent of
sales for the comparable period in 1997 as the benefits of recent investments in
sales training and marketing  programs began to  materialize.  Operating  profit
increased  in the  first  quarter  of  1998 to  $11.6  million,  a 63.7  percent
improvement from the first quarter of 1997.

Interest  expense  amounted  to $0.8  million,  representing  a decrease of $0.2
million, or 13.0 percent, over the comparable quarter of 1997. This decrease was
attributable to lower average borrowings.

The effective tax rate was  approximately  43.0 percent for the first quarter of
1998 and 1997.


FINANCIAL CONDITION:

Working  capital for the end of first  quarter of 1998 was 18.7 percent of sales
compared  to  16.8  percent  for  the  end of  year  1997.  This  resulted  from
inventories  increasing due to seasonal  requirements and increased  receivables
levels, partially offset by increased payables.

Short term borrowings  increased  approximately  $0.3 million and long-term debt
has increased  $8.0 million since year end primarily due to seasonal cash usage.
The company believes that currently available cash,  borrowing  facilities,  and
its ability to  increase  its credit line if needed,  combined  with  internally
generated funds should be sufficient to fund capital expenditures as well as any
increase in working capital that would be required to accommodate a higher level
of business activity.

PART II  OTHER INFORMATION

Genlyte has been named as one of a number of corporate and individual defendants
in an adversary  proceeding filed on June 8, 1995, arising out of the Chapter 11
bankruptcy filing of Keene Corporation ("Keene").  Except for the last count, as
discussed below, the claims and causes of action are  substantially  the same as
were brought  against  Genlyte in the U.S.  District Court in New York in August
1993,  which have been  permanently  enjoined  from  proceedings  as a result of
Keene's  reorganization  plan.  The new  complaint  is being  prosecuted  by the
Creditors  Trust  created for the benefit of Keene's  creditors  (the  "Trust"),
seeking from the  defendants,  collectively,  damages in excess of $700 million,
rescission of certain asset sale and stock transactions,  and other relief. With
respect to Genlyte,  the complaint  principally  maintains that certain lighting
assets of Keene were sold to a predecessor  of Genlyte in 1984 at less than fair
value,  while both Keene and Genlyte were  wholly-owned  subsidiaries of Bairnco
Corporation.  The complaint  also  challenges  Bairnco's  spin-off of Genlyte in
August 1988.  Other  allegations  are that Genlyte,  as well as other  corporate
defendants,  are liable as corporate successors to Keene. The complaint fails to
specify the amount of damages sought against Genlyte. The complaint also alleges
a violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.

Following  confirmation of the Keene  reorganization  plan, the parties moved to
withdraw the case from  bankruptcy  court to the  Southern  District of New York
Federal  District  Court.  The case is now pending  before the Federal  District
Court.  Genlyte and other  defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint and
motions for summary judgment on statute of limitations  grounds on September 15,
1997,  which were fully briefed and presented to the Court on December 15, 1997.
Oral argument was conducted on the summary  judgment motion on February 13, 1998
and Genlyte is awaiting  decisions of the Court on the other motions.  Discovery
has been stayed until further order of the Court.  Genlyte  believes that it has
meritorious  defenses to the  adversary  proceeding  and will defend said action
vigorously.

Additionally,  the company is a defendant and/or potentially  responsible party,
with other  companies,  in  actions  and  proceedings  under  state and  Federal
environment  laws  including the Federal  Comprehensive  Environmental  Response
Compensation and Liability Act, as amended ("Superfund").  Such actions include,
but are not  limited  to,  the  Keystone  Sanitation  Landfill  site  located in
Pennsylvania,  in which the United States  Environmental  Protection  Agency has
sought remedial action and reimbursement for past costs.

Management  does  not  believe  that  the  disposition  of the  lawsuits  and/or
proceedings will have a material effect on the Company's  financial condition or
results of operations.
