NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

U.S. Industries, Inc. (the "Company") is a diversified manufacturer of consumer
and industrial products. The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information, Article 10 of Regulation S-X and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. The interim financial data for the three months ended December 31,
1997 and 1996 are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all
necessary adjustments for a fair presentation of the financial position and
results of operations for the interim periods on a consistent basis. Such
adjustments were of a normal and recurring nature. The results of operations for
the three month period ended December 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of
those for the full fiscal year ending October 3, 1998. For further information,
refer to the Consolidated (Combined) Financial Statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
September 27, 1997.

The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to September 30. All
three month data contained herein reflect results of operations for the 14-week
period and 13-week period ended on the Saturday closest to December 31, 1997 and
1996, respectively, but are presented as of such date for convenience.

                                   ============        ============


At December 31, 1997 the Company has short-term debt of $64 million denominated
in German Marks and $49 million denominated in British Pounds. These borrowings
have been designated as hedges of the Company's net investments in SiTeco and
Spear & Jackson, acquisitions made during the first quarter of fiscal 1998 (see
Note 5). The Company expects to refinance this debt on a long-term basis during
the second quarter of fiscal 1998 and, accordingly, this amount has been
classified as other long-term debt. Other long-term debt also includes $64
million of notes payable maturing within one year which the Company expects to
repay using borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Certain present and former operating sites, or portions thereof, currently or
previously owned and/or leased by current or former operating units of the
Company are the subject of investigations, monitoring or remediation under the
Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
("CERCLA" or "superfund"), the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act or
comparable state statutes or agreements with third parties. These proceedings
are in various stages ranging from initial investigations to active settlement
negotiations to implementation of the clean-up or remediation of sites.

A number of present and former operating units of the Company have been named as
Potentially Responsible Parties ("PRPs") at 15 off-site disposal sites under
CERCLA or comparable state statutes in a number of federal and state
proceedings. The operating units of the Company are working with the
governmental agencies involved and other PRPs to address environmental claims in
a responsible and appropriate manner.

At December 31, 1997, the Company had accrued $19 million for known
environmental related matters. The Company believes that the range of liability
for such matters is between $6 million and $21 million. The increase in the
accrual and the range of liability, when compared to the fiscal year ended
September 27, 1997, is due to an evaluation of exposures related to recent
acquisitions. (See Note 5).

Also, certain of the Company's subsidiaries are defendants or plaintiffs in
lawsuits that have arisen in the normal course of business. While certain of
these matters involve substantial amounts, it is management's opinion, based on
the advice of counsel, that the ultimate resolution of such litigation and
environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 5 - ACQUISITIONS

In October 1997, the Company purchased Siemens Lighting, a division of Siemens
A.G., for $67 million in cash. Siemens Lighting is a leading European
manufacturer and marketer of standard and customized indoor and outdoor lighting
products for commercial and industrial use. Siemens Lighting (renamed SiTeco
Beleuchtungstechnik GmbH, "SiTeco") operates manufacturing facilities in
Germany, Austria and Slovenia.

NOTE 5 - ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED)

In December 1997, the Company purchased Spear & Jackson plc ("Spear & Jackson")
for $11 million in cash and $96 million in the Company's Common Stock, resulting
in preliminary goodwill of approximately $65 million. Spear & Jackson,
headquartered in Sheffield, England, is a manufacturer and distributor of a
diverse line of hand tools, lawn and garden tools, saws, cutting and industrial
tools. Spear & Jackson operates manufacturing facilities in England and France
and distribution facilities in the United States, Australia and New Zealand. The
purchase price is subject to additional cash contingently payable at the end of
a 30-month period based upon a combination of certain performance criteria and
the market value of the Company's stock.

These transactions have been accounted for as purchases and their results are
included in the financial statements from the respective dates of acquisition.
The allocation of purchase price is preliminary and subject to adjustment upon
receipt of final valuation information and management's final estimates as to
the fair value of the respective assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
