NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
1. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - PRIME ACQUISITION CORP.
In connection with the sale of substantially all of the assets of the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Leslie-Locke, Inc., the name of Leslie
Building Products, Inc. was changed to LBP, Inc. and the name of Leslie-Locke,
Inc. was changed to Prime Acquisition Corp. ("Prime").
On June 18, 1998, effective as of May 31, 1998, Prime sold substantially
all its net assets and business for approximately $44 million in cash. Prime
realized an after-tax gain of $12.6 million from the sale, and after payment of
its outstanding debt, closing costs and income taxes, Prime has cash and
investments of approximately $28 million.
Prime has agreed to indemnify the buyer as follows: (i) for up to $4
million of losses incurred by the buyer during the two years following the
closing resulting from breaches of representations and warranties made by Prime,
(ii) for up to $4 million of losses incurred by the buyer during the four years
following the closing resulting from certain environmental matters, and (iii)
for losses incurred by the buyer resulting from liabilities of Prime not assumed
by the buyer. In connection with Prime's indemnification obligations, Prime
deposited in escrow an aggregate of $25.4 million for a period of two years
following the closing. Up to approximately $21.4 million of the escrow funds may
be withdrawn by Prime at any time during the escrow period to acquire other
businesses, for investments, and for certain other permitted payments. In this
connection, $20 million was withdrawn in December 1998 to fund Prime's
investment in the preferred stock of Impac Mortgage Holdings, Inc. and such
preferred stock was deposited in escrow. The balance in the escrow accounts at
March 31, 1999 was approximately $5 million, which is invested in liquid U.S.
Treasury money market accounts. The escrow will terminate two years from the
closing, and any escrow funds not paid to the buyer or subject to claims
outstanding at that time will be returned to Prime. The Company is not aware of
any events that may trigger an indemnifiable claim.
Prime was the sole operating subsidiary of the Company, and the Company
and its subsidiaries do not now conduct any operations. The Company will
continue to incur expenses associated with the management of its assets, its
financial reporting obligations, and other administrative functions.
The Board of Directors of the Company adopted a resolution regarding the
Company's intent to be engaged in a business other than that of investing,
reinvesting or trading in securities, as soon as it is reasonably possible, and
that the proceeds from the sale of the assets of Prime be utilized to acquire
other businesses.
The sale did not include the assets and liabilities of White Metal Rolling
and Stamping Corp.("White Metal"), Prime's discontinued ladder manufacturing
subsidiary. See Note 4.
2. INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES
On December 22, 1998, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Prime,
acquired, at a cost of $20 million, 800,000 shares of 10.5 percent Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock, having a liquidation preference of $25 per share,
of Impac Mortgage Holdings, Inc., ("Impac"). The shares are convertible into
Common Stock of Impac (symbol "IMH") at $4.95 per share, or an aggregate of
4,040,404 shares, representing 13.7 percent of IMH common stock. The conversion
price may be adjusted downward if, among
7

LBP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
other things, certain earnings levels are not attained by Impac through June 30,
1999. In addition, Prime is entitled to receive as a dividend each quarter, in
cash or Impac common stock, the higher of 10.5 percent per annum or the dividend
paid to common stockholders calculated on the shares of common stock into which
the preferred stock is convertible. The Company has included as investment
income $592,000, the amount of the dividend declared by Impac on March 30, 1999,
payable to shareholders of record on March 31, 1999 and received on April 27,
1999. The Company has recorded this investment at cost of $20,121,000. The
Company believes that the book value of this investment approximates fair value
at March 31, 1999.
Starting March 1999, the Company commenced the acquisition of common
shares of The North Face, Inc. and at March 31, 1999 owned 51,150 shares, which
has been recorded at its market value of $639,000. The Company considers these
to be trading securities.
These investments were made in order to enhance stockholder value while
efforts to acquire an operating company continue. In that regard, the Board of
Directors of the Company reaffirmed previously adopted resolutions regarding its
intent to be engaged in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting or
trading in securities, as soon as it is reasonably possible.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Consolidated Financial Statements presented herein have been prepared
by the Company in accordance with the accounting policies described in its
December 31, 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be read in conjunction
with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which appear in that report.
In the opinion of management, the information furnished in this Form 10-Q
reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of
operations as of and for the three month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.
All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Consolidated
Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and therefore do not include some information and notes necessary to
conform with annual reporting requirements.
Income Taxes
The Company and its subsidiaries file separate Federal and state income
tax returns. The Company's subsidiaries generally file separate state income tax
returns on the same basis as the Federal income tax returns.
4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - WHITE METAL ROLLING AND STAMPING CORP.
In fiscal 1990, the Company discontinued the operations of White Metal
Rolling and Stamping Corp. ("White Metal"), the Company's ladder manufacturing
subsidiary. All manufacturing operations of White Metal ceased as of January 31,
1991 and substantially all of its remaining assets have since been liquidated.
8
<PAGE>
LBP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
At March 31, 1999, White Metal's estimated future product liability, which
is no longer covered by insurance, was approximately $4 million. Such liability
is reflected in discontinued operations - White Metal Rolling and Stamping
Corp., net, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Although Prime (formerly known as
Leslie-Locke, Inc.) was named as a defendant in certain product liability
actions, Prime has not been held responsible.
On September 30, 1994, White Metal filed a voluntary petition seeking
liquidation under the provisions of chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy
Code. In connection with the chapter 7 filing by White Metal, numerous proofs of
claim have been filed against White Metal. Included is a claim by Sears Roebuck
& Co., ("Sears") dated April 7, 1995, in the amount of $164 million, including
actual losses of $1.7 million and estimated future product liability losses for
the next 20 years, based upon indemnification obligations which Sears alleges
White Metal undertook in connection with White Metal's sale of ladders to Sears.
These proofs of claim have been evaluated in determining the Company's estimated
product liability accrual.
The Company and Prime have in the past disclaimed, and continue to
disclaim, any liability for the obligations of White Metal.
On May 7, 1996, the Company and Prime, and Drew Industries, Inc. ("Drew"),
the former parent of Prime, and its subsidiary, Kinro, Inc. ("Kinro"), were
served with a summons and complaint in an adversary proceeding commenced by the
chapter 7 trustee of White Metal. The complaint, which appears to have alleged
several duplicate claims, sought damages in the aggregate amount of $10.6
million plus attorneys fees, of which approximately $7.5 million of tax related
claims was sought, jointly and severally, from the Company, Prime, Drew and
Kinro. On July 14,1998, the bankruptcy court granted defendants' motion to
dismiss the trustee's tax-related claims. The court permitted the trustee to
replead the dismissed claims, but the trustee elected not to replead. The
trustee could appeal the court's decision dismissing these claims on termination
of the proceeding.
Other than the dismissed tax-related claims, the trustee alleges that
White Metal made certain payments to Prime which were preferential and are
recoverable by White Metal, in the approximate amount of $2.2 million. Although
these claims were not dismissed, the Company believes that the claims are
without merit, denies liability for any such amount, and is vigorously defending
against the allegations. However, an estimate of potential loss, if any, cannot
be made at this time. The Company believes that the defense of this proceeding
will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In connection with the sale of substantially all of the assets of the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Leslie-Locke, Inc., the name of Leslie
Building Products, Inc. was changed to LBP, Inc. and the name of Leslie-Locke,
Inc. was changed to Prime Acquisition Corp. ("Prime").
On June 18, 1998, effective as of May 31, 1998, Prime sold substantially
all its net assets and business for approximately $44 million in cash. Prime
realized an after-tax gain of $12.6 million from the sale, and after payment of
its outstanding debt, closing costs and income taxes, Prime has cash and
investments of approximately $28 million at March 31, 1999.
The Board of Directors of the Company adopted a resolution regarding the
Company's intent to be engaged in a business other than that of investing,
reinvesting or trading in securities, as soon as it is reasonably possible, and
that the proceeds from the sale of the assets of Prime be utilized to acquire
other businesses.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Prime was the sole operating subsidiary of the Company, and the Company
and its subsidiaries do not now conduct any operations. The net proceeds, as
well as funds that had been held until closing costs and income taxes were paid,
have been invested in certain common and preferred stocks as well as in liquid
U.S. Treasury money market accounts. The Company's income consists primarily of
dividend income from these investments. The Company will continue to incur
expenses of approximately $550,000 to $750,000 annually, associated with the
management of its assets, its financial reporting obligations, other
administrative functions and imputed interest costs. Such expenses exclude costs
which may be incurred in connection with acquisition searches and unanticipated
costs, if any, in connection with discontinued operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sale of Assets
In connection with the June 1998 sale of Prime's assets, Prime has agreed
to indemnify the buyer as follows: (i) for up to $4 million of losses incurred
by the buyer during the two years following the closing resulting from breaches
of representations and warranties made by Prime, (ii) for up to $4 million of
losses incurred by the buyer during the four years following the closing
resulting from certain environmental matters, and (iii) for losses incurred by
the buyer resulting from liabilities of Prime not assumed by the buyer. In
connection with Prime's indemnification obligations, Prime deposited in escrow
an aggregate of $25.4 million for a period of two years following the closing.
Up to approximately $21.4 million of the escrow funds may be withdrawn by Prime
at any time during the escrow period to acquire other businesses, for
investments, and for certain other permitted payments. In this connection, $20
million was withdrawn in December 1998 to fund Prime's investment in the
preferred stock of Impac Mortgage Holdings, Inc. and such preferred stock was
deposited in escrow. The balance in the escrow accounts at March 31, 1999 was
approximately $5 million, which is invested in liquid U.S. Treasury money market
accounts. The escrow will terminate two years from the closing, and any escrow
funds not paid to the buyer or subject to claims
11

LBP, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
outstanding at that time will be returned to Prime. The Company is not aware of
any events that may trigger an indemnifiable claim.
Investments in Securities
On December 22, 1998, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Prime
Acquisition Corp., acquired, at a cost of $20 million, 800,000 shares of 10.5
percent Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, having a liquidation preference
of $25 per share, of Impac Mortgage Holding, Inc., ("Impac"). The shares are
convertible into Common Stock of Impac (symbol "IMH") at $4.95 per share, or an
aggregate of 4,040,404 shares representing 13.7 percent of IMH common stock. The
conversion price may be adjusted downward if, among other things, certain
earning levels are not attained by Impac through June 30, 1999. In addition,
Prime is entitled to receive as a dividend each quarter, in cash or Impac common
stock, the higher of 10.5 percent per annum or the dividend paid to common
stockholders calculated on the shares of common stock into which the preferred
stock is convertible. The Company has recorded this investment at cost of
$20,121,000.
Starting March 1999, the Company commenced the acquisition of common
shares of The North Face, Inc. and at March 31, 1999 owned 51,150 shares, which
has been recorded at its market value of $639,000.
These investments were made in order to enhance stockholder value while
efforts to acquire an operating company continue. In that regard, the Board of
Directors of the Company reaffirmed previously adopted resolutions regarding its
intent to be engaged in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting or
trading in securities, as soon as it is reasonably possible.
Contingent Liabilities
The sale of Prime's assets did not include the assets and liabilities of
White Metal Rolling and Stamping Corp.("White Metal"), the operations of which
were discontinued in 1990. All manufacturing operations of White Metal ceased as
of January 31, 1991 and substantially all of its remaining assets have since
been liquidated.
At March 31, 1999, White Metal's estimated future product liability, which
is no longer covered by insurance, was approximately $4 million. Such liability
is reflected in discontinued operations - White Metal Rolling and Stamping
Corp., net, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Although Prime was named as a
defendant in certain product liability actions, Prime has not been held
responsible.
On September 30, 1994, White Metal filed a voluntary petition seeking
liquidation under the provisions of chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy
Code. In connection with the chapter 7 filing by White Metal, numerous proofs of
claim have been filed against White Metal. Included is a claim by Sears Roebuck
& Co., ("Sears") dated April 7, 1995, in the amount of $164 million, including
actual losses of $1.7 million and estimated future product liability losses for
the next 20 years, based upon indemnification obligations which Sears alleges
White Metal undertook in connection with White Metal's sale of ladders to
12
<PAGE>
LBP, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Sears. These proofs of claim have been evaluated in determining the Company's
estimated product liability accrual.
The Company and Prime have in the past disclaimed, and continue to
disclaim, any liability for the obligations of White Metal.
On May 7, 1996, the Company and Prime, and Drew, the former parent of
Prime, and its subsidiary, Kinro, Inc., were served with a summons and complaint
in an adversary proceeding commenced by the chapter 7 trustee of White Metal.
The complaint, which appears to have alleged several duplicate claims, sought
damages in the aggregate amount of $10.6 million plus attorneys fees, of which
approximately $7.5 million of tax related claims was sought, jointly and
severally, from the Company, Prime, Drew and Kinro. On July 14,1998, the
bankruptcy court granted defendants' motion to dismiss the trustee's tax-related
claims. The court permitted the trustee to replead the dismissed claims, but the
trustee elected not to replead. The trustee could appeal the court's decision
dismissing these claims on termination of the proceeding.
Other than the dismissed tax-related claims, the trustee alleges that
White Metal made certain payments to Prime which were preferential and are
recoverable by White Metal, in the approximate amount of $2.2 million. Although
these claims were not dismissed, the Company believes that the claims are
without merit, denies liability for any such amount, and is vigorously defending
against the allegations. However, an estimate of potential loss, if any, cannot
be made at this time. The Company believes that the defense of this proceeding
will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.
INFLATION
Future changes from current levels of inflation may be expected to impact
the investment income earned by the Company on its temporary investments.
YEAR 2000
The Company has determined, without taking into account any remedial steps
which have been taken, that the potential consequences of Year 2000 issues would
not have a material effect on the business, results of operations, or financial
condition of LBP, Inc.
As described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,
substantially all of the assets of the Company's sole operating subsidiary were
sold. As a result, LBP and its subsidiaries do not now conduct any operations
and therefore do not rely on any significant data processing for their business.
At March 31, 1999, approximately $7 million of the Company's assets were
invested in liquid U.S. Treasury money market accounts, which the Company does
not believe are susceptible to significant risk as a result of Year 2000 issues.
The Company also has invested $20 million in a Convertible Preferred Stock of
Impac Mortgage Holdings, Inc. ("Impac"), the common stock of which is publicly
traded and is listed on
13
<PAGE>
LBP, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
the American Stock Exchange. The Company has reviewed the Year 2000 disclosure
in the Annual Report on Form 10K of Impac and found that while certain risks are
addressed, Impac expects to be Year 2000 compliant before the end of 1999. This
investment is not viewed as long-term, and it continues to be the Company's
intention to be engaged in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting
or trading in securities, as soon as it is reasonably possible. The proceeds
from the sale of these investments will be ultimately used to acquire other
businesses. Disclosure requirements regarding Year 2000 issues will be
reconsidered when the Company makes such an acquisition or as its investment
portfolio changes.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS
This report contains certain statements, including the Company's long-term
plans, which could be construed to be forward looking statements within the
meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements reflect the
Company's current views with respect to future events, financial performance and
plans to acquire an operating company.
The Company has identified certain risk factors which could cause actual
plans and results to differ substantially from those included in the forward
looking statements. These factors include certain contingent indemnification
obligations as described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, contingencies described in Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, interest rates, and the potential availability of suitable
acquisition candidates, acquisition price and terms, as well as general economic
conditions.
