1.       Organization and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete

3.       Long-term Debt

In March of 1996, the Company  amended its $5,500,000  senior credit  agreement,
extending  the  maturity  through  December  1997,  and  amended  certain  other
provisions  including  the  financial  covenants.  The  Company is  required  to
maintain certain financial covenants pertaining to net worth, leverage,  current
ratio and  interest  coverage  and  currently  is  restricted  from  paying cash
dividends.  The  Company has  classified  $4,000,000  under the  amended  credit
agreement  as a long-term  liability,  because it expects  this amount to remain
outstanding through September 28, 1997.

   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
                                   Operations
                                  (Unaudited)

Three  months  ended  September  28, 1996  compared  with the three months ended
September 30, 1995.

Net sales decreased $170,000, or 2%, to $10.8 million for the three months ended
September 28, 1996 from $11.0  million for the three months ended  September 30,
1995.  The decrease  results from lower sales from existing  facilities  and the
recycling  operation,  which were offset by sales from insulation  manufacturing
companies acquired in 1995.

Gross  profit  increased  $1.4  million,  or 52%, to $4.1  million for the three
months  ended  September  28, 1996 from $2.7  million for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. As a percentage of net sales,  gross profit increased to 38%
for the three  months  ended  September  28, 1996 from 25% for the three  months
ended September 30, 1995. The increase is due primarily to lower paper costs.

Selling and distribution  expenses  increased $147,000 or 9% to $1.9 million for
the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $1.7 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1995. The increase is due to higher costs associated with an
increased  marketing effort which were offset by lower  transportation  costs at
existing facilities.

General and administrative  expenses increased $55,000,  to $1.7 million for the
three  months  ended  September  28, 1996 from $1.6 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1995.

Interest expense increased $9,000, or 5%, to $207,000 for the three months ended
September 28, 1996 from  $198,000 for the three months ended  September 30, 1995
as a result of additional debt related to capital  expenditures  and debt issued
or assumed in connection with the 1995 acquisitions.

Income tax expense was $158,000 for the three months ended  September  28, 1996.
No tax  provision  was made for the same period of 1995 due to operating  losses
incurred.

As a result of the factors  discussed above, net income increased  approximately
$1.0 million to $242,000 for the three  months ended  September  28, 1996 from a
net loss of $820,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995.

Nine months  ended  September  28,  1996  compared  with the nine  months  ended
September 30, 1995.

Net sales  increased  $1.3 million,  or 4%, to $30.2 million for the nine months
ended  September 28, 1996 from $28.9 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1995. The increase results from sales  contributed by companies  acquired in
1995, which was partially offset by lower sales from existing facilities.

Gross  profit  increased  $3.9  million,  or 51%, to $11.5  million for the nine
months  ended  September  28, 1996 from $7.6  million for the nine months  ended
September 30, 1995. As a percentage of net sales,  gross profit increased to 38%
for the nine months ended  September 28, 1996 from 26% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995. The increase is due primarily to lower paper costs.

Selling and distribution expense increased $215,000,  or 4%, to $5.0 million for
the nine months ended  September  28, 1996 from $4.8 million for the nine months
ended  September 30, 1995.  Higher costs  related to companies  acquired in 1995
were partially offset by lower transportation costs at existing facilities.

General and administrative  expenses increased $959,000, or 23%, to $5.1 million
for the nine months  ended  September  28,  1996 from $4.2  million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995. The increase results from costs  contributed by
companies acquired during 1995 and expenses related to the Company's acquisition
and growth strategy.

                                       9

Interest  expense  increased  $229,000,  or 58%, to $622,000 for the nine months
ended  September 28, 1996 from $393,000 for the nine months ended  September 30,
1995 as a result of  additional  debt related to capital  expenditures  and debt
issued or assumed in connection with the 1995 acquisitions.

Income tax expense  increased  $666,000 to  $313,000  for the nine months  ended
September  28, 1996 as compared to a benefit of $353,000  for the same period of
1995. The increase is attributable to higher income from operations.

As a result of the factors discussed above, net income increased $1.8 million to
$480,000 for the nine months ended  September 30, 1996 as compared to a net loss
of $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In January of 1996, the Company raised $1.7 million, net of related expenses, in
a private  placement of its Series D Convertible  Preferred  Stock.  The Company
will use the  proceeds to  partially  fund future  acquisitions  and for general
corporate purposes.

In March of  1996,  the  Company  amended  its  senior  credit  facility  with a
commercial  bank,  extending the revolving  line of credit  through  December of
1997.

The Company's  working capital totaled $2.6 million as of September 28, 1996 and
$1.2 million as of December 30, 1995.  The increase in working  capital  results
primarily from proceeds of the sale of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

Net cash provided by operations  increased  $1.1 million to $1.6 million for the
nine months ended  September  28, 1996 as compared  to  cash  used  of  $521,000
for the same period of 1995.  The increase is the result of higher  earnings and
changes in working capital during the second quarter of 1996.

Historically,  the Company has financed its operations with internally generated
funds, equity, and with working capital lines of credit for short-term financing
needs. To date, the Company has been able to obtain additional financing for the
operation of its business. Management believes that the funds on hand, including
capital raised in January of 1996,  together with expected operating cash flows,
will provide the Company with adequate  liquidity to operate its business for at
least the next twelve months.  However, the Company may seek to finance business
expansion,   including  potential   acquisitions,   with  additional   borrowing
arrangements or equity financing.

Material Agreements

The Company  announced  on September  10, 1996 that it has signed a  non-binding
letter of intent to be acquired by Louisiana-Pacific Corporation.  Subsequently,
on October 28, 1996,  the Company  signed a  definitive  merger  agreement  with
Louisiana-Pacific   Corporation.   Under  the  terms  of  the  agreement  public
shareholders  of  GreenStone  will  receive  $5.25  per  share  in  cash,  while
management  and  certain   non-public   shareholders  will  receive   restricted
securities  of  Louisiana-Pacific  of  the  equivalent  value.  Closing  of  the
acquisition  is subject to  regulatory  filings and  approval  by the  Company's
shareholders, among other things.
