                     VALCOR REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

     DALLAS, TEXAS . . July 25, 1996 . . Valcor, Inc. reported net income of
$4.6 million for the second quarter of 1996, compared to net income of $6.8
million in the second quarter of 1995.  For the first six months of 1996, Valcor
reported a net loss of $8.6 million, which includes a first quarter after-tax
charge of approximately $15 million to close Medite's New Mexico medium density
fiberboard ("MDF") plant.  Net income was $13.5 million in the first six months
of 1995.

     Building products results were adversely affected by lower MDF selling
prices compared to last year.  While second quarter 1996 MDF prices approximated
those of the first quarter of this year, average prices for the first six months
of 1996 were approximately 18% lower than the same period in 1995.  Increased
sales volumes in certain product lines resulted in higher hardware products
sales, while changes in product mix contributed to slightly lower earnings.  A
3% increase in year-to-date comparable store sales improved fast food results.
