                  NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1998, the related
condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 have been prepared by Coastcast Corporation (the
"Company") without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) have been made which are
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows of the Company at March 31, 1998, and for the periods then ended. 

Although the Company believes that the disclosure in the condensed consolidated
financial statements is adequate for a fair presentation thereof, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.  The December 31, 1997 audited statements were included in
the Company's annual report on Form 10-K under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 for the year ended December 31, 1997.  These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto contained in that annual report.

Certain reclassifications were made to 1997 balances to conform to the 1998
presentation.

The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 1998, are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

2. INVENTORIES

                        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                 OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended March 31, 1998 compared with three months ended March 31,
1997:

Sales increased $16.3 million, or 56.2%, to $45.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 from $29.0 million for the three months ended March 31,
1997.  The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume in titanium iron
clubheads and titanium metal wood clubheads.

Gross profit increased $5.6 million, or 140%, to $9.6 million for 1998 from $4.0
million for 1997.  Gross profit margins increased to 21.3% for 1998 from 13.9%,
due principally to increased production volume and improved product mix.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $0.9 million, or 40.9%, to
$3.1 million in 1998 from $2.2 million in 1997.  The increase was due primarily
to increased payroll and related expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash and cash equivalents position at March 31, 1998 was $30.6
million compared to $28.2 million on December 31, 1997, an increase of $2.4
million.  Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.4 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1998.  The operating activities net cash was
primarily provided by net income of $4.0 million.  Net cash used in investing
activities of $2.6 million consisted mainly of $2.4 million of net capital
expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 1998.  Net cash provided by
financing activities of $1.6 million consisted of proceeds from exercise of
stock options.

The Company has no long term debt.  The Company believes that its current cash
position, working capital generated from future operations and the ability to
borrow should be adequate to meet its financing requirements for current
operations and the foreseeable future.
