   CONDENSED STATEMENT OF INCOME - continued
   -----------------------------


   (i)       PRIMARY: Primary earnings per common share are computed by
             dividing net income available to common shareholders by the
             weighted average number of common shares and common stock
             equivalents outstanding during each period: 10,813,359 and
             9,474,377, for the three months ended September 28, 1997, and
             September 29,1996, respectively.  The computation includes the
             dilutive effect of common stock options outstanding.

   (ii)      FULLY DILUTED: The calculation of fully diluted net income per
             share is based on net income before preferred stock dividends.
             The number of shares assumes the conversion of the convertible
             preferred stock from the date of issue.  The total number of
             shares used in the fully diluted calculation for the three
             months ended September 28, 1997, and September 29, 1996, were
             10,817,713 and 10,730,902, respectively.

   CONDENSED STATEMENT OF INCOME - continued

   (i)       The extraordinary loss resulted from one-time expenses incurred
             relating to the early retirement of $20 million of 11.43%
             privately-placed notes of the Company prior to the acquisition
             of Kysor Industrial Corporation in March of 1997.

   (ii)      PRIMARY: Primary earnings per common share are computed by
             dividing net income available to common shareholders by the
             weighted average number of common shares and common stock
             equivalents outstanding during each period:  10,803,978 and
             9,310,155, for the nine months ended September 28, 1997, and
             September 29, 1996, respectively.  The computation includes the
             dilutive impact of common stock options outstanding.

   (iii)     FULLY DILUTED: The calculation of fully diluted net income per
             share is based on net income before preferred stock dividends.
             The number of shares assumes the conversion of the convertible
             preferred stock from the date of issue.  The total number of
             shares used in the fully diluted calculation for the nine
             months ended September 28, 1997, and September 29, 1996, were
             10,811,621 and 10,726,127, respectively.

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              -------------------------------------------------

   (1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
   -------------------------

   The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
   Scotsman Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the
   "Company").

   All accounting policies used in the preparation of the quarterly
   condensed financial statements are consistent with the accounting
   policies described in the notes to financial statements for the year
   ended December 29, 1996, appearing in the Company's 1996 Annual Report to
   Shareholders ("Annual Report").  In the opinion of management, the
   interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary
   for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of
   operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.  The results
   for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for
   the full year.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction
   with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to
   consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report.

   (2) INVENTORIES:

   (3)  ACQUISITION OF KYSOR:
   -------------------------


   In March of 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of Kysor
   Industrial Corporation ("Kysor"), a leading supplier of refrigerated
   display cases  and walk-in coolers and freezers to supermarkets and
   convenience stores.  Prior to the acquisition, Kysor also manufactured a
   line of products for the transportation industry through its
   transportation products group (the "Transportation Products Group"). The
   Company purchased Kysor (herein after referred to as the "Kysor
   Acquisition") for an aggregate purchase price of $309 million in cash and
   assumed $35 million in debt, net of cash, related to both Kysor's
   Transportation Products Group and its Commercial Products Group, through
   which Kysor sold its refrigerated display cases and walk-in coolers and
   freezers. Concurrent with the acquisition, Kysor sold Kysor's
   Transportation Products Group to a third party for an aggregate purchase
   price of $86 million in pre-tax proceeds ($68 million of after-tax
   proceeds) plus assumption of certain liabilities related to the
   Transportation Products Group.  Including transaction and severance costs
   of $22.5 million,  the net purchase price for the Commercial Products
   Group was approximately $299 million.

   The Kysor Acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
   accounting.  Accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were
   recorded at their estimated fair values which are subject to further
   refinement, including final appraisals and other analyses, with
   appropriate recognition given to the effect of current interest rates and
   income taxes.  Goodwill relating to the Kysor Acquisition of
   approximately $198 million will be finalized within 12 months of the
   acquisition date and is being amortized for book purposes over 40 years
   using the straight-line method.

   The Kysor Acquisition was financed through a $415 million loan facility
   between the Company and The First National Bank of Chicago (the "FNBC
   Facility").  The FNBC Facility consists of a $150 million seven-year term
   loan and a $265 million seven-year revolving loan facility, both with an
   initial interest rate of 1.375 percent above Eurocurrency rates.  The
   interest rates on both facilities adjust based on a certain ratio tied to
   the strength of the Company's balance sheet.

   <PAGE> 12

   The agreement governing the FNBC Facility includes various financial
   covenants.  One of those covenants has the effect of restricting the
   amount of the Company's dividends to its stockholders by requiring the
   Company to maintain consolidated stockholders' equity of at least $120
   million (without giving effect to the cumulative effect of future changes
   in accumulated translation adjustments), plus 60 percent of (i) the
   cumulative net income of the Company from December 30, 1996, forward and
   (ii) the net cash proceeds from any future issuance of equity securities
   by the Company after the closing of the FNBC Facility.  Shareholders'
   equity was $142 million as of September 28, 1997. Under the FNBC
   Facility, the Company is also precluded from paying dividends to its
   shareholders (other than dividends payable in its own capital stock) if a
   default or an unmatured default under the agreement has occurred and is
   continuing or would occur after giving effect to the payment of such
   dividends.

   The FNBC Facility requires that a notional amount of $150 million be
   hedged to reduce interest rate exposure for three years. Subsequent to
   the acquisition of Kysor, the Company entered into interest rate swap
   agreements to hedge its interest rate exposure on $150 million of the
   aggregate borrowing under the FNBC Facility for a three year period.  One
   of the interest rate swap agreements, covering a notional amount of $50
   million, is extendable for an additional two years at the bank's option.
   In addition to financing the Kysor Acquisition, proceeds of the FNBC
   Facility were used to pay expenses associated with this acquisition and
   were used to repay existing long-term debt, including the portion of debt
   outstanding under the Company's former $90.0 million reducing credit
   agreement and a $20.0 million private placement agreement.

   Due to the significance of the Kysor Acquisition to the Company, the
   Company's operating results will be materially different from, and will
   not be comparable to, prior periods.  For fiscal year 1996, Kysor's sales
   of commercial refrigeration products were $245.1 million, which when
   combined with the comparable period for the Company would have resulted
   in pro forma combined sales of $601.4 million, a 69 percent increase over
   the Company's reported 1996 sales.

   The accompanying unaudited condensed pro forma income statement
   information is presented to illustrate the effect of certain events on
   the historical income statement information of the Company as if the
   acquisition of Kysor had occurred as of the first day of each of the
   periods presented.

   <PAGE> 13

   The pro forma information includes assumptions and estimates and is not
   necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the Company as
   they may be in the future or as they might have been had the transaction
   occurred as discussed above.  The pro forma results of operations for the
   year-to-date period ended September 28, 1997, include certain adjustments
   made by Kysor prior to acquisition anticipating the completion of the
   transaction.  These adjustments related to changes in the accounting
   estimates for the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities and
   the combining of four of Kysor's business units into two business units.
   These adjustments are not reflected in the pro forma results for the
   nine-month period ended September 29, 1996.  Management does not expect
   these adjustments to occur in the future.

   The unaudited condensed pro forma income statement information should be
   read in conjunction with the historical condensed financial statements
   and notes thereto of the Company appearing elsewhere herein.

   Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
             Condition and Results of Operations
   -----------------------------------------------------------

   Results of Operations
   ---------------------

   The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial
   condition and results of operations contains forward looking statements
   that involve risks and uncertainties.  The Company's results could differ
   significantly from those anticipated as a result of unforeseen factors.
   Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those anticipated
   include (i) the strength or weakness of the various economies in which
   the Company markets its products, (ii) weather conditions, (iii) the
   utilization rate of the Company's facilities, (iv) labor difficulties,
   (v) increased prices of raw materials and purchased components, (vi)
   scheduling and transportation dislocations, (vii) delays in development
   of new products or construction of new facilities, (viii) product
   liability or other lawsuits, warranty claims or return of goods, (ix)
   foreign currency fluctuations, (x) changes in buying patterns of certain
   large customers as a result of internal cost-control measures adopted by
   those customers and (xi) changes in environmental, health, safety or
   refrigerant regulations or standards.  See the Cautionary Statements
   included as Exhibit 99 to the Company's most recent Form 10-K filed with
   the Securities and Exchange Commission for a more detailed discussion of
   the foregoing and other factors.

   Net sales for the third quarter of 1997 were a record $159.7 million, up
   $66.9 million or 72 percent from sales for the third quarter of 1996.
   Third quarter 1997 results included sales of $65.0 million from the
   Commercial Products Group of Kysor Industrial Corporation ("Kysor"),
   which was acquired by the Company in March 1997.

   Net sales for the nine months ended September 28, 1997, were $431.5
   million, up $148.8 million or 53 percent from sales for the first nine
   months of 1996.  Results for the first nine months of 1997 included sales
   from March 10 through September 28 of $152.7 million from the Kysor
   business.

   Sales of refrigerated display cases and walk-in coolers and freezers by
   Kysor, representing approximately 41 percent of the Company's sales in
   the third quarter and 35 percent of sales in the first nine months of
   1997, decreased 7 percent over Kysor's pro forma sales for the third
   quarter of 1996.  However, Kysor sales increased 4 percent in the first
   nine months of 1997 on a pro forma basis compared to 1996.  Kysor's
   backlog of orders from supermarkets remains at record levels, although 
   delivery schedules have been deferred to future periods to a greater 
   degree than anticipated.

             Condition and Results of Operations

   Results of Operations - continued
   ---------------------

   Scotsman's worldwide ice machine sales, representing 27 percent of the
   Company's sales for the third quarter and 30 percent of sales for the
   first nine months of 1997, were flat in the third quarter and declined 5
   percent year-to-date compared to the same periods of 1996 using constant
   foreign exchange rates.  Sales in U.S. dollars decreased 4 percent in the
   third quarter, and 8 percent in the first nine months of 1997.  The year-
   to-date decline in worldwide ice machine sales resulted from soft market
   conditions in Europe and the U.S. in the first half of the year, some
   slowdown in restaurant chain activity in the U.S., and high European
   distributor inventory levels at the beginning of the period.  Sales in
   the U.S. stabilized during the third quarter, and the company 
   believes that the improving year over year sales comparison for the 
   third quarter in Europe is an indication that the European market for
   ice machines is also stablizing.

   Sales of food preparation and storage equipment, which represented
   approximately 20 percent and 22 percent of the Company's sales in the
   third quarter and first nine months of 1997, increased 11 percent in the
   third quarter of 1997 compared to the third quarter of 1996.  Sales in 
   the first nine months of 1997 increased 14 percent compared to the same 
   period in 1996.  Sales at the Company's Delfield business benefitted from 
   an expanding customer base in the third quarter of 1997 over 1996.

   Sales of beverage dispensing equipment, which represented approximately
   12 percent and 13 percent of the Company's sales for the quarter and the
   September year-to-date period, increased 7 percent compared to the third
   quarter of 1996, ignoring the effect of changes in exchange rates.  Third
   quarter sales in U.S. dollars increased 4 percent compared to 1996.  
   September year-to-date sales increased 1 percent, ignoring the effect of 
   exchange rates, and decreased 1 percent in U.S. dollars compared to the 
   prior year.  Increased European market penetration and continued sales 
   gains by the Company's U.K.-based beverage dispensing business more than 
   offset soft market conditions for the Company's dispensing businesses in 
   Germany and in the United States.

             Condition and Results of Operations
   -----------------------------------------------------------


   Results of Operations - continued
   ---------------------


   The Company's gross profit increased by $13.9 million, or 53 percent, to
   $40.1 million in the third quarter of 1997 from $26.2 million in the
   third quarter of 1996, due to the impact of the Kysor Acquisition.
   However, the Company's gross profit margin decreased as a percentage of
   net sales to 25.1 percent in the third quarter of 1997 from 28.3 percent
   in the third quarter of 1996.  The reduction in margins in the quarter is
   partially attributable to the inclusion of the results of Kysor, which
   historically has reported lower gross profit margins.  However, also
   contributing to the decline in gross profit margins were higher
   production costs of food preparation and storage equipment.  These
   factors, along with the 8 percent year-to-date decline in worldwide ice 
   machine sales, also affected the Company's gross profit margins for the 
   nine month period ended September, 1997.  

   Selling and administrative expenses of $22.3 million increased by $8.2
   million or 57 percent in the third quarter of 1997 as compared to the
   third quarter of 1996.  The first nine months of selling and
   administrative expenses of $63.4 million increased by $18.4 million or 41
   percent from the prior period.  The increase in selling and
   administrative expenses is attributable to the inclusion of Kysor results
   subsequent to its acquisition by the Company in March 1997, including
   amortization of intangibles related to the purchase of Kysor of $1.2
   million in the third quarter and $2.6 million in the first nine months of
   1997.  As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses
   decreased in the third quarter of 1997 to 14.0 percent from 15.3 percent
   reported in the third quarter of 1996.  The Kysor business units have
   historically reported lower gross profit margins, but also lower selling
   and administrative expenses as a percent of sales as compared to the
   balance of the Company's businesses.

             Condition and Results of Operations
   -----------------------------------------------------------


   Results of Operations - continued
   ---------------------

   Income from operations of $17.8 million for the third quarter of 1997
   increased by $5.8 million or 48 percent from the third quarter of 1996
   which reflects primarily the contribution to profits of the Kysor
   business.  As a percentage of net sales, 1997 third quarter income from
   operations decreased to 11.1 percent from 12.9 percent in 1996.  The
   decline is the result of lower gross profit margins discussed above, and
   additional amortization of intangibles of $1.2 million in the third
   quarter of 1997 resulting from the Kysor Acquisition.

   Net interest expense of $6.4 million for the third quarter of 1997
   increased by $5.1 million when compared to the third quarter of the prior
   year, as a result of the increased domestic borrowings incurred by the
   Company to fund the Kysor Acquisition.

   The Company's overall income tax rate for the third quarter of 1997 was
   47.0 percent and the rate for the first nine months of 1997 was 47.9
   percent compared to 45.9 percent for the third quarter of 1996 and 47.3
   percent for the first nine months of 1996.  The higher income tax rates
   in 1997 are primarily attributable to the impact of $1.2 million per
   quarter of additional amortization of intangibles resulting from the
   Kysor Acquisition, which is not tax deductible.

   Net income for the third quarter of 1997 was $6.0 million, or $0.56 per
   share compared to $5.5 million, or $0.54 per share in the third quarter
   of 1996. Net income for the nine months of 1997, before a one-time after-
   tax charge of $633,000 incurred for the early retirement of $20 million
   of 11.43 percent private placement debt, increased 3 percent to $17.0
   million, or $1.57 per share.  Net income for the first nine months of
   1997 including the one-time charge declined 1 percent from the same
   period in 1996 to $16.4 million or $1.51 per share.

   The Kysor Acquisition was accretive to the Company's earnings per share
   for the third quarter of 1997 and year-to-date period, and is expected to
   be accretive for the full year.  Management believes earnings per share
   for total year 1997, before the extraordinary charge taken in the first 
   quarter of 1997, may be slightly below the 1996 record level.

             Condition and Results of Operations

   Liquidity and Capital Resources
   -------------------------------

   Historically, the Company's liquidity requirements have arisen primarily
   from the need to fund its working capital, capital expenditures,
   acquisitions, and interest expense, including fixed obligations
   associated with debt or lease obligations.  The Company has met these
   liquidity requirements through use of funds generated from operations,
   along with financing from various sources.

   The Company expects to continue to generate significant cash flow from
   operations, which will be used to run the Company's businesses and fund
   further growth.  Increased levels of working capital, capital
   expenditures and interest expense associated with the Kysor Acquisition
   are not expected to adversely impact the Company's liquidity and access
   to capital.

   The Company provided cash flow from operations of $8.8 million for the
   first nine months of 1997 compared to cash flow provided by operating
   activities of $19.3 million for the first nine months of 1996.

   The following changes in the balance sheet categories from December 29,
   1996, until Sept. 28, 1997,  exclude opening balances from the Kysor 
   Acquisition in March of 1997 and the impact of changes in foreign 
   exchange rates on those categories:

        Inventory decreased by $6.3 million, which reflects the reduction in
        Kysor inventories since the date of acquisition by the Company along
        with decreases at some of the Company's other domestic businesses.

        Accounts receivable were $27.8 million higher, primarily as a result
        of the sales increase in the third quarter of 1997 compared to the
        fourth quarter of 1996.

        Trade accounts payable were $8.6 million higher which reflects the
        impact of seasonal volume.

   Liquidity and Capital Resources - continued

   Capital expenditures, including those funded through capital leases,
   increased $5.0 million, or 102 percent to $9.9 million for the first nine
   months of 1997 from $4.9 million for the first nine months of 1996.
   Capital expenditures in 1997 were made primarily to fund construction of
   a new Kysor facility in Columbus, Georgia, along with equipment to realize 
   productivity improvements, new product tooling, and maintenance and
   replacement items.

   All asset and liability accounts as of September 28, 1997, were
   significantly impacted by the Kysor Acquisition in March of 1997.
   Goodwill increased from December 29, 1996, due to the Kysor Acquisition,
   which added approximately $198 million.

   Cash and temporary cash investments of $23.2 million as of September 28,
   1997, increased by $6.7 million from December 29, 1996, reflecting the
   increase in cash balances at the Company's foreign subsidiaries and in
   part due to the Kysor Acquisition.

   Shareholders' equity increased $10.6 million from December 29, 1996,
   which reflects net income of $16.4 million for the first nine months of
   1997, which was partially offset by a reduction in shareholders' equity
   caused by changes in accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments
   of $5.3 million and the impact of dividends.

   Note 3 to the condensed financial statements contains a summary of the
   changes in the Company's debt structure as a result of the Kysor
   Acquisition.  Long-term debt increased by approximately $281 million as
   of September 28, 1997 primarily due to funding of the Kysor Acquisition,
   along with funding of working capital needs.  Short-term debt reduced
   $1.9 million from December 29, 1996 primarily due to short-term domestic
   borrowings being replaced with longer-term borrowings. Total debt,
   including capital leases, was $355.9 million as of September 28, 1997
   compared to $76.6 million as of December 29, 1996.  The debt to capital
   ratio was 71 percent at September 28, 1997, compared with 37 percent at
   December 29, 1996.

   On February 13, 1997, May 15, 1997, and August 14, 1997, the Company's
   Board of Directors declared a dividend of 2  1/2  cents per share payable
   to common shareholders of record on March 28, 1997, June 30, 1997, and
   September 30, 1997, respectively.

   Since its first quarter as a publicly-held company, the Company has paid
   a quarterly dividend of 2 1/2  cents per share.  The continuation,
   amount and timing of this dividend will be determined by the Board of
   Directors and may change as conditions warrant.

   On October 22, 1997, the Company filed a registration statement with the
   Securities and Exchange Commission for a proposed offering of $100
   million of 10-year senior subordinated notes.  The proceeds  from the
   offering will be used to repay outstanding debt.  At the same time, the
   existing bank credit agreement is being renegotiated to gain additional
   flexibility.  In conjunction with the registration, the Company also
   registered approximately 1.6 million shares of common stock for a proposed
   secondary offering of shares held by affiliates of Onex Corporation,
   which has exercised its registration rights under a prior agreement with
   the Company.  The proceeds of this secondary offering will be for the
   benefit of such Onex affiliates.
