NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Starrett Corporation
and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The consolidated financial
statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 are
unaudited and are subject to year-end audit and adjustments. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
of operations for the fiscal year. For comparability purposes, certain 1995
amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1996 classifications. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes included thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1995.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
-------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATIONS
----------
COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
--------------------------------------------------------
During the three months ended March 31, 1996 the Company had income from
operations of $2,050,000 as compared with $1,735,000 in 1995, and net income of
$1,168,000 or $.19 a share for the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared
with $989,000 or $.16 a share for the similar period in 1995.
The increase in income was primarily attributable to Levitt Corporation's
operations.
Levitt's backlog of homes contracted for sale increased from $78,900,000 at
March 31, 1995 to $95,772,000 at March 31, 1996. Included in Levitt's sales
backlog is its 50% interests in joint ventures.
HRH Construction Corporation reported an increase in operating income,
offset by a rise in general and administrative expenses relating to the
Company's expansion in the interior construction field.
Mortgage and closing costs increased reflecting the expansion of Levitt's
mortgage banking operations.
Financial Condition and Capital Resources
The Company meets it short-term financing needs with cash generated from
operations and funds available under several unsecured credit agreements. On
January 31, 1996, Levitt satisfied a $14,400,000 unsecured credit facility
through a $4,400,000 payment from working captial and a $10,000,000 payment
from an unsecured term loan. The new loan requires semi-annual principal
payments of $1,000,000 and $1,500,000 in July and January, respectively,
through January 2000.
Housebuilding Operations
The Company generally meets its land acquisition, development and
construction needs through mortgage loans and unsecured revolving credit
facilities. During March 1996, the Company renewed and extended its $15,000,000
revolving unsecured credit agreement used to finance its Puerto Rico
homebuilding operation for an additional three years.
Mortgage Operations
During 1995 the Company entered into a credit agreement with a Puerto Rico
bank to provide an unsecured revolving line of credit of $3,000,000 to finance
the working capital needs of the expanding Puerto Rico mortgage banking
operation.
Development/Construction Management
During 1995 the Company entered into a credit agreement with a New York
bank to provide a $3,000,000 unsecured line of credit to finance development,
construction and other operating activities.
1996 Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities comprised net income of
$1,168,000 and a decrease in inventories of $2,511,000, offset by an increase in
other assets of $2,748,000, net adjustments for non-cash items of $17,000, and a
net change in other operating assets and liabilities of $2,336,000.
The decrease in inventories is due to the timing of titling homes in Puerto
Rico and domestically. The increase in other assets is attributable to the
expansion of development projects.
Net cash provided by investing activities comprised distributions from
joint ventures of $2,810,000, offset by other net investing activities of
$538,000.
Net cash used in financing activities comprised net principal payments on
notes and mortgages payable of $6,955,000 plus dividends paid to stockholders of
$391,000.
Seasonality
The timing of introducing Levitt's new projects to the market, weather
conditions in certain of Levitt's regions, and traditional periods of greater
customer activitiy have tended to create seasonal trends in Levitt's
residential home building activities. Historically, the number of homes
delivered has been greater in the second half of the calender year.
Except as discussed above, management is not aware of any trends or events,
commitments or uncertainties that will impact liquidity in a material way.
