MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


Comparison of Second Quarter 1996 to Second Quarter 1995

Worldwide net sales for the second quarter of 1996 were $44.6 million, up $0.9
million, or 2% from second quarter 1995. U.S. sales increased approximately 5%
compared to 1995 due to the gradual improvement in business following the soft
first  quarter that was affected by adverse  weather  conditions  that delayed
some  construction  projects  and slowed  new  construction  in certain  niche
markets.  European  sales in local  currency were up 11% compared to last year
due to stronger  demand for the Company's  products.  Canadian sales were down
40%  in  local  currency  in  1996  compared  to  1995  due  principally  to a
significant  highway  infrastructure  project that shipped in 1995 but did not
recur in 1996.

Operating  income was $6.3  million as compared to $6.5  million in 1995.  The
decrease in operating  income was due primarily to higher  operating  expenses
compared to 1995.

The $0.2 million decrease in interest expense principally  resulted from lower
average outstanding indebtedness and related interest rates.

Second  quarter net income and earnings per common share were $3.6 million and
$0.31, respectively, in 1996 and 1995.


Comparison of First Six Months 1996 to First Six Months 1995

Net sales for the 1996 period were $82.7 million, down $4.9 million or 6% from
the same period in 1995. U.S. sales were down 5% from prior year due to severe
weather  conditions  in North  America  during the first  quarter of 1996 that
delayed  construction  projects and softness in new retail store construction.
In local  currencies,  European  sales have increased 6% compared to the prior
year.  Canadian  sales have  declined 31% compared to 1995 due to poor weather
conditions during the first quarter of 1996 and reduced business volume in the
highway infrastucture market.

Operating  income in 1996 was $9.9 million  compared to $13.5 million in 1995.
The decline in operating  income is due to lower  volume and  slightly  higher
operating expenses in 1996.

Interest  expense was $1.1  million in 1996  compared to $1.5 million in 1995.
The decrease in interest  expense was due to lower  outstanding  debt balances
and lower interest rates.

Net income and earnings per common share for the first six months of 1996 were
$5.6  million and $0.48,  respectively,  compared to $7.4 million and $0.65 in
1995.

Capital Resources, Liquidity and Other

Working  capital was $28.0  million as of June 30,  1996,  up $2 million  from
year-end 1995 due to volume related  increases in receivables  and inventories
and lower current liabilities.

Cash on hand, funds generated from operations and amounts  available under the
Credit Agreement are expected to adequately  fulfill  Holophane's  anticipated
requirements for the remainder of 1996.
