        adjustments, which management of Key Plastics, Inc. (the "Company")
        considers necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated
        financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Certain
        information and footnotes necessary to comply with generally accepted
        accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.

        Certain items in the December 31, 1996 balance sheet have been
        reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

        During March of 1997 the Company completed several actions to refinance
        its existing debt and secure additional financing for the future,
        including: (1) A tender offer for all of its $65.0 million, 14% Senior
        Notes due 1999 [$40.1 million of the notes were tendered]; (2) A private
        placement for $125.0 million, 10 1/4% New Senior Subordinated Notes due
        2007; and (3) Entered into a new $140.0 million Senior Credit Facility.

        On March 28, 1997, the Company acquired three injection molding and
        assembly operations owned by Aeroquip Corporation, a subsidiary of
        TRINOVA Corporation. Two of the acquired plants are located in Michigan
        and the third is in Chihuahua, Mexico. The acquired business represents
        an expansion of the Company's existing decorative bezel business. The
        acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method.

        These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
        Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December
        31, 1996 which contain a summary of the Company's accounting principles
        and other information. The results of operations for any interim period
        should not necessarily be considered indicative of the results of
        operations for a full year.

3.      Earnings Per Share:

        Earnings per share amounts for the three month periods ended March 31,
        1997 and 1996 are computed by using net income divided by the weighted
        average number of shares of common and common equivalent shares
        outstanding during the period under the treasury stock method.

        The weighted average number of shares used in computing earnings per
        share are 334,468 and 330,709 for the three months ended March 31, 1997
        and 1996, respectively.

        The Company is closely-held and, accordingly, there is no public market
        for the Company's common stock. For purposes of computing the
        incremental common equivalent shares outstanding under the treasury
        stock method, the Company utilized management's estimate of fair value
        of the Company's Common Stock.

4.      Accounting Changes:

        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"),
        Earnings per share, was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards
        Board in February 1997.  Adoption of SFAS 128, effective for periods
        ending after December 31, 1997 is not expected to have a material effect
        on reported earnings.

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

                               KEY PLASTICS, INC.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

        During March the following actions to refinance the Company's debt were
completed:

        (1)  A tender offer for all of its $65.0 million, 14% Senior Notes due
             1999 [$40.1 million of the notes were tendered and repaid; $24.9
             million remain outstanding];

        (2)  A private placement for $125.0 million, 10 1/4% New Senior
             Subordinated Notes due 2007; and

        (3)  Entered into a new $140.0 million Senior Credit Facility; $33.0
             million was outstanding against this facility as of March 31, 1997.

             The proceeds of the private placement were principally used to
fund the tender and replace existing bank debt. Borrowings on the Senior Credit
Facility were for general corporate purposes, including an acquisition,
discussed more fully below. The net impact of these actions increased debt at
March 31, 1997 by $48.8 million from December 31, 1996. 

             The Company believes its existing sources of liquidity are
adequate to meet its operating requirements in fiscal 1997. At March 31, 1997
the Company had $43.5 million of availability under the Senior Credit Facility. 

             On March 28, 1997, the Company acquired three injection molding and
assembly operations owned by Aeroquip Corporation, a subsidiary of TRINOVA
Corporation. The acquired business represents an expansion of the Company's
existing decorative bezel business. The acquisition has been accounted for
using the purchase method.

             Accounts receivable increased by $14.1 million comparing March 31,
1997 to December 31, 1996. $6.5 million is due to increased parts sales and
timing within the quarter. The acquisition of three Aeroquip factories added
$5.7 million of accounts receivable at March 31, 1997. Customer tooling related 
receivables increased by $1.9 million over the prior quarter primarily as a
result of increased tooling programs.

             The inventory increase of $5.3 million from December 31, 1996 to
March 31, 1997 was due in part to the inventory acquired from Aeroquip of $3.5
million and $1.8 million to increases in customer tooling inventory related
to the design and build of tooling for programs expected to launch in 1998.

             Accrued liabilities decreased by $7.4 million from December 31,
1996 due primarily to the $5.9 million payout of all accrued interest for the
debt refinanced.

</TABLE>


Net sales for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 were $66.7
million; an increase of approximately $21.4 million or 47% over the same period
last year. Approximately $15 million of the increase relates to the Company's
European subsidiaries, Key U.K. and Materias Plasticas (MaP) which were
acquired in 1996 (Key U.K. was acquired May 1, 1996 and a controlling interest
in MaP was acquired on November 1, 1996). Sales of injection molded parts and
assemblies in the Company's existing businesses was up $6.6 million or 17%
resulting from vehicle programs launched during 1996 and to increases in
related vehicle production by the Company's customers. First quarter revenues 
related to customer tooling programs year-over-year were flat at about 
$6.2 million.

        Gross profit increased $3.4 million in the first quarter of 1997
compared to the first quarter of 1996 as a result of the aforementioned sales
increases. The degradation of the gross profit percentage of 1.5% from 1997 to
1996 is primarily attributable to operations in the United Kingdom where gross
profit margins are lower than other Company facilities.

<PAGE>   10
        Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.1 million in
1997 as compared to the same period last year. Approximately $1.9 million of
the increase is due to costs incurred in facilities owned by the Company for
less than one year as of March 31, 1997, principally in Europe. The remainder
of the increase relates to staff and facility costs necessary to support the
Company's expansion.

        Operating income increased by $.2 million as a result of the foregoing.

        Interest expense in the first quarter of 1997 increased by about $1.5
million over the same 1996 period because of higher average debt outstanding.
The increase in debt stemmed primarily from acquisitions made during the course
of 1996 including Clearplas, Ltd. in the United Kingdom and Materias Plasticas,
S.A. in Portugal, and a plastic injection molding company in South Bend,
Indiana.
