NOTE 3 - NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The computation of diluted
earnings per common share considers the effect of common stock equivalents.  The
number of shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share
was 8,162,000 and 8,643,000 respectively, for the three months ended January 
31, 1998, and 7,995,000 and 8,437,000 respectively for the three months ended
January 31, 1997.

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





Result of Operations

THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED 
JANUARY 31, 1997.


Sales in the first quarter of fiscal year 1998 increased by $14.4 million, or
17% compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 1997.  This increase was due
primarily to the increase in market penetration of building system sales and
higher sales in the component division.  The new manufacturing facilities for
components and insulated panels which were not present in the prior year added
sales of $2.2 million in the first quarter of 1998.

Gross profit in the first quarter increased $3.0 million, or 14%, compared to
the prior year's first quarter.  Gross margin percentage declined from 27.0%
last year to 26.1% in the current quarter.  The increased level of component
sales including the Company's door division accounted for this decline since
their gross margin percentage is lower than building sales.

Operating expenses which consist of engineering, selling and administrative
costs increased by $2.1 million, or 14%, in the current quarter compared to the
same period last year.  As a percent of sales, operating expenses were 17.1%
compared to 17.5% a year ago.  The dollar increase was primarily related to
salaries and commissions for additional employees hired to support the increase
volume of orders and sales over the prior year.  As a percent of sales,
operating expenses declined due to spread of the fixed cost element over the
higher sales base.

Other income increased by $285,000 in the current quarter due to a higher level
of investable cash this year compared to last year and a somewhat higher 
earnings rate on investments.

Income before income taxes increased by $1.2 million, or 15%, as a result of
the increased sales volume.  As a percent of sales, income before taxes was
9.7% in the current quarter compared to 10.0% in the same quarter a year ago.
The decline was primarily from the change in gross profit percentage in the
current quarter.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically funded its operations from cash flow from
operations and bank borrowing. It maintains a revolving credit facility with a
bank lender that provides for a maximum credit on an unsecured basis of $6.0
million which matures in March, 1999. The Company has no outstanding balance
under this facility and has not borrowed any funds in the current quarter.

During the quarter, the Company spent $2.1 million in capital additions for its
manufacturing plants and for improvements in it's management information
systems. All of the funds for these additions were funded from internally
generated cash.

At January 31, 1998, the ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 3.5
to 1 compared to 2.7 to 1 at October 31, 1997. Cash flow generated from
operations before changes in current assets and liabilities was $8.7 million.

Liquidity in future periods will be dependent on internally generated cash
flows, the ability to obtain adequate external financing for expansion, when
needed, and the amount of increased working capital necessary to support
expected growth. Based on current capitalization, it is expected future cash
flows from operations and the availability of alternative sources of external
financing should be sufficient to provide adequate liquidity in future periods.

The Company has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems to
identify the systems that could be affected by the "Year 2000" issue and is
implementing its plan to resolve the issue. The Year 2000 problem is a result
of computer programs being written using two digits (rather than four) to
define the applicable year. Any of the Company's programs that have
time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than the year 2000. This could result in a major system failure or
miscalculations. The Company presently believes that, with modifications to
existing software and converting to new software, the Year 2000 problem will
not pose significant operational problems for the Company's computer systems as
so modified and converted. The Company is well under way with its project plans
and expects to complete systems corrections by December 31, 1998. The related
cost is not expected to be material to the Company's results of operations or
financial position.

                          NCI BUILDING SYSTEMS, INC.
                        NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN


                                MARCH 4, 1998

      The NCI Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (amended and restated as of
December 12, 1996) (the "Plan") is hereby amended as follows:

      1.    Section 9 of the Plan is hereby restated in its entirety as
follows:

            9.    RIGHTS OF ESTATE OR BENEFICIARIES IN EVENT OF DEATH. If a 
      participant dies prior to termination of his or her right to exercise an
      option in accordance with the provisions of the Plan or his or her stock
      option agreement without having totally exercised the option, the option
      may be exercised during the remainder of the Option Period by the
      participant's estate or by the person who acquired the right to exercise
      the option by bequest or by reason of the death of the participant,
      either pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution or by beneficiary
      designation; however, the option must be exercised prior to the date of
      expiration of the Option Period or one year from the date of the
      participant's death, whichever first occurs. The participant may
      designate a beneficiary to exercise an option pursuant to this Section 9
      in the event of his or her death on a form designated by the Board for
      such purpose.

     2.   Section 13 of the Plan is hereby restated in its entirety as follows:

          13.     NON-ASSIGNABILITY. Options may not be transferred other than 
      by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or by a beneficiary
      designation made by the participant. During a participant's lifetime,
      options granted to a participant may be exercised only by the
      participant.

      Signed to be effective the date first written above.
