ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

New orders for the second quarter of 1996 decreased 27% compared to the second
quarter of 1995. The original equipment manufacturers' (OEM) segment of the
Timer and Switch line incurred the largest decrease. This can be attributed to a
decline in OEM blanket order renewals as a result of slower sales of OEM's to
their customers. As the OEM's inventory is depleted, renewals will occur in the
third and fourth quarters of 1996. The Photocontrol line also declined due to
large blanket orders extending beyond one year which were recorded in the second
quarter of 1995. The total backlog on June 30, 1996 was $3,189,000 compared to
$3,989,000 on June 30, 1995.

Net sales for the second quarter of 1996 were $1,928,000, an increase of 7%
compared to the second quarter of 1995. Heavy orders in the original equipment
manufacturers' (OEM) segment of the Timer & Switch line during the first quarter
contributed to the increased customer shipments in the second quarter.

Cost of Goods Sold as a percentage of Net Sales increased to 83% for the second
quarter of 1996 as compared to 76% for the same quarter in 1995. The principal
reasons for this were: (1) The increase in shipments in the OEM segment were
lower margin items; (2) Non-cash accounting adjustments for prior years' items
capitalized into inventory were charged to earnings due to the decrease in
inventory in 1996; (3) Employee furloughs in the second quarter of 1995 that did
not occur in the second quarter of 1996; (4) Higher depreciation due to an
anticipated increase in capital expenditures; and (5) A customer reimbursement
for special tooling projects recorded in the second quarter of 1995 did not
occur in the second quarter of 1996.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the second quarter of 1996 were
22% of Net Sales, the same as for the comparable quarter of 1995.

Interest expense for the second quarter in 1996 decreased compared to the same
quarter in 1995. This was due to the following: (1) A lower prime rate which
decreased borrowing cost; and (2) Lower principal balances which decreased
interest expenses.

On a consolidated basis, M. H. Rhodes, Inc. had a Net Loss of $120,000 for the
second quarter of 1996 as compared to a Net Income of $1,000 for the second
quarter of 1995.  The contributing factor to this was the higher cost of sales
in the second quarter of 1996 than in the same quarter of 1995 as explained
above.

Financial Condition as of June 30, 1996

Working capital for the second quarter of 1996 decreased $140,000 over the
December, 1995 level. This decrease was the result of a decline in inventories
which resulted in reductions in the current liabilities.
