INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Directors
Wilkinson Company, Inc.
Stow, Ohio
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Wilkinson Company,
Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of EFCO, Inc.) as of September 30, 1996, and the
related statements of income, shareholder's equity, and cash flows for the year
then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wilkinson Company,
Inc. as of September 30, 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting

WILKINSON COMPANY, INC.
(A WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF EFCO, INC.)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. ORGANIZATION - Wilkinson Company, Inc. (the "Company") is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of EFCO, Inc. (the "Parent Company").
The Company, which is a sheet metal fabricator of rubbish and
linen chutes, stainless steel corner guards and bumper rails
and miscellaneous sheet metal parts, provides credit to its
customers. These customers serve primarily the construction
industry and are located throughout the United States.
B. REVENUE RECOGNITION - The Company recognizes revenue on
contracts using the completed contract method of accounting
for both financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes.
This method is used because the typical contract is completed
in three months or less and financial position and results of
operations do not vary significantly from those which would
result from use of the percentage-of-completion method.
C. USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
D. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - The Company considers all highly
liquid investments with an original maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents, and maintains cash at various
financial institutions which may exceed federally insured
amounts.
E. MARKETABLE SECURITIES - At September 30, 1995, the Company had
marketable securities (stocks and corporate bonds) of
$789,230, at cost, which approximated market value. All
marketable securities were transferred to the Parent Company
during the year ended September 30, 1996, at cost, which
approximated market value.
F. INVENTORIES - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost
(determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market.
G. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT - Property, plant, and equipment
are carried at cost. Depreciation is provided over their
estimated useful lives (building and improvements over 10-30
years, machinery and equipment over 5-12 years, other over
4-10 years) by use of the straight-line and declining balance
methods. Depreciation expense for the year ended September 30,
1996 was $75,739. The cost and accumulated depreciation of
assets sold or retired are removed from the respective
accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in earnings.
Maintenance, repairs and minor repairs are charged to expense
when incurred. Additions and major renewals are capitalized.
H. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - The fair values of cash,
accounts receivable, accounts payable and other short-term
obligations approximate their carrying values because of the
short maturity of these financial instruments.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
I. INCOME TAXES - The Company is included in the Parent Company's
consolidated tax returns. The Company is allocated a portion of
the Parent Company's tax expense based on the Company's
proportion of taxable income to the taxable income of the
consolidated group as a whole. At September 30, 1996, $211,700 of
accrued taxes is due to the Parent Company. The Company utilizes
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"),
"Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires an asset and
liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for
income taxes. The difference between the financial statement and
tax basis of assets and liabilities is determined annually.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for those
temporary differences that have future tax consequences using the
current enacted tax laws and rates that apply to the periods in
which they are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation
allowances are established, if necessary, to reduce the deferred
tax asset to the amount that will, more likely than not, be
realized. Income tax expense is the current tax payable or
refundable for the period plus or minus the net change in the
deferred tax assets and liabilities.
NOTE 2. INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS 109. The deferred
taxes are the result of temporary differences arising from
differences in financial reporting and tax reporting methods
primarily for depreciation, franchise taxes, vacation accruals and
bad debts.
The components of the provision for taxes on income for the year
ended September 30, 1996 are:
Current tax provision:
Federal $211,700
State and local 57,200
-------
268,900
Deferred tax provision relating to:
Income 14,300
-------
Total provision for income taxes $283,200
=======
At September 30, 1996, the Company's net deferred income tax asset
consists of the following:
Deferred tax assets:
Allowance for uncollectible accounts $ 6,800
Vacation accruals 14,700
Franchise taxes 11,800
Depreciation 15,500
------
Total deferred tax assets 48,800
Deferred tax liabilities -
------
Net deferred tax asset $48,800

NOTE 3. RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan which
covers substantially all employees who are employed within the
collective bargaining unit. This plan provides monthly benefits that
are based on an employee's years of service and the applicable
benefit rate, as defined. The Company funds the pension plan in
accordance with the funding provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974.
Total pension expense for the plan was $11,874 for the year ended
September 30, 1996. The components of pension expense for the plan
are as follows:
Service cost - benefits earned during the period $ 10,878
Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 31,555
Actual return on plan assets - (gain) (32,258)
Net amortization and deferral 1,699
-------
Net periodic pension cost $ 11,874
=======
The following table sets forth the unfunded status of the Company's
pension plan and the related amounts recognized in the Company's
balance sheet as of September 30, 1996 are:
Actuarial present value of benefit obligations:
Vested benefit obligation 464,177
Nonvested benefit obligation 971
-------
Accumulated benefit obligation 465,148
Effect of projected future compensation levels -
-------
Projected benefit obligation 465,148
Plan assets at fair value 454,503
-------
Deficiency of plan assets over projected
benefit obligation 10,645
Unrecognized net loss (47,770)
Unrecognized prior service costs (21,735)
Unrecognized net transition asset 4,304
-------
Pension asset recognized in balance sheet $ 54,556
=======
The weighted average discount rate used in determining the actuarial
present value of the projected benefit obligation was 7.5 percent.
The expected long-term rate of return on assets was 8.0 percent. Due
to the nature of the plan, the rate of change in future compensation
levels does not affect the projected benefit obligation.
The Company also has a defined contribution plan, which includes a
cash or deferred provision, covering all employees not within the
collective bargaining unit (primarily administrative personnel),
meeting certain requirements. The Company makes a matching
contribution in an amount equal to 50% of the first 6% of amounts
contributed by a participant. Additionally, at management's
discretion, an amount may be contributed out of current or
accumulated profits. For the year ended September 30, 1996, the
Company made matching contributions of $7,282 and discretionary
contributions of $6,000.

as of September 30, 1996 related to these services.

lease expiring in December 1997.

Year ending September 30:
1997 $239,078
1998 59,769
Management estimates expenses related to rental income, which are
included in costs and expenses in the statement of income, to be
approximately $95,000.
