1.       THE COMPANY
         International Wire Group, Inc. ("Group" or the "Company"), a Delaware
         corporation, was formed to participate in the transactions
         contemplated by the IW Acquisition (as described below).  On June 12,
         1995, Wirekraft Holdings Corp. ("Wirekraft"), Omega Wire Corp.
         ("Omega"), International Wire Holding Company ("Holding", the parent
         company of Group), Group, Wirekraft Acquisition Company and certain
         shareholders of Wirekraft and Omega entered into a series of
         acquisitions and mergers (the "IW Acquisition") pursuant to which
         Group acquired all of the common equity securities (and all securities
         convertible into such securities) of Wirekraft and all of the common
         equity securities of Omega.  The Company through its two segments, the
         Wire segment and the Harness segment, is engaged in the design,
         manufacture and marketing of non-insulated and insulated copper wire
         and wire harnesses.  The Company's products are used by a wide variety
         of customers primarily in the appliance, computer and data
         communications, automotive and industrial equipment industries.

2.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

         The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all
         adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which are,
         in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
         financial position and results of operations.  The results for the
         three months ended March 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of
         the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

         Statement of Cash Flows

         Interest and taxes paid for the three months ended March 31, 1996 were
         $3,055 and $236, respectively.

3.       INVENTORIES

         Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is
         determined using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method.  As a result
         of a decline in copper prices from the period December 31, 1995 to
         March 31, 1996 the Company wrote down the copper valuation in
         inventory, the effect of which increased loss before income tax
         provision by approximately $2,000.

4.       INTANGIBLE ASSETS

         The Company's management has begun a comprehensive review of the
         strategic position of its individual business units.  This analysis
         included the closing of certain Wirekraft facilities and the recent
         DWT Acquisition (discussed in Note 6).  As a result, the Company is
         assessing the carrying value of goodwill.  While the Company has not
         yet completed this assessment, a possible outcome may be a write-off
         of a portion of the goodwill presently carried on its books.  The
         Company expects to conclude on this matter in the near term, but not
         later than the filing of its Form 10-K for the current fiscal year.

5.       LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)


         Credit Agreement

         In connection with the IW Acquisition, Group and Holding entered into
         a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") dated as of June 12, 1995
         with certain financial institutions.  The Credit Agreement was amended
         in connection with the DWT Acquisition (discussed in Note 6) pursuant
         to an Amendment to the Credit Agreement dated March 5, 1996 (the
         "Amended Credit Agreement").  Borrowings under the Amended Credit
         Agreement are collateralized by first priority mortgages and liens on
         all of the assets of Group.  In addition, borrowings under the Amended
         Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Holding.

         The Amended Credit Agreement provides senior secured financing of up
         to $363,500 consisting of a $111,000 term loan (the "Term A Loan"), an
         $82,500 term loan (the "Term B Loan"), a $95,000 term loan (the "Term
         C Loan") (collectively the "Term Facility") and a $75,000 revolving
         credit facility (the "Revolver").  Mandatory principal payments of the
         Term Facility are due in quarterly installments.  The final
         installment on the Term A Loan is due on September 30, 2000 at which
         time the Revolver is also due.  The final installments on the Term B
         Loan and Term C Loan are due on September 30, 2002 and September 30,
         2003, respectively.

         Borrowings under the Term A Loan and Revolver bear interest, at the
         option of Group, at a rate per annum equal to (a) the Alternate Base
         Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus 1.5% or (b) the
         Eurodollar Rate (as defined) plus 2.5%. Borrowings under the Term B
         Loan bear interest, at the option of Group, at a rate per annum equal
         to (a) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined) plus 2.0% or (b) the
         Eurodollar Rate (as defined) plus 3.0%. Borrowings under the Term C
         Loan bear interest at the option of Group, at a rate per annum equal
         to (a) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined), plus 2.5% or (b) the
         Eurodollar Rate (as defined) plus 3.5%. Interest payment dates vary
         depending on the interest rate option to which the Term Facility and
         the Revolver are tied, but generally interest is payable quarterly.
         The Amended Credit Agreement contains several financial covenants
         which, among other things, require Group to maintain certain financial
         ratios and restrict Group's ability to incur indebtedness, make
         capital expenditures and pay dividends.

         Senior Subordinated Notes

         The Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005 ("the Senior Notes") were
         issued under an indenture, dated June 12, 1995 (the "Indenture") in
         connection with the IW Acquisition.  The Senior Notes represent
         unsecured general obligations of Group and are subordinated to all
         Senior Debt (as defined in the Indenture) of Group.  The Senior Notes,
         which were originally sold pursuant to an exemption from the
         registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
         were exchanged for identical notes registered under such Act in
         November, 1995.

         The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally (as well as jointly and
         severally) guaranteed on an unsecured, senior subordinated basis by
         each subsidiary of the Company (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries") other
         than Electro Componentes de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. and Wirekraft
         Industries de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries").
         Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries is
         wholly owned by the Company.

6.       DWT ACQUISITION

         On March 5, 1996, Wire Technologies, Inc. ("Wire Technologies"), a
         wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired the businesses of
         Hoosier Wire, Inc., Dekko Automotive Wire, Inc., Albion Wire, Inc. and
         Silicones, Inc., a group of affiliated companies operating together
         under the tradename Dekko Wire Technology Group (the "DWT
         Acquisition").  The total consideration paid in connection with the
         DWT Acquisition, including fees and expenses, consisted of (i) cash in
         the amount of $173,239, subject to final adjustments, and (ii)
         warrants for the purchase of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par
         value $.01 per share, of Holding. The cash portion of the
         consideration paid and the transaction fees and expenses incurred in
         connection with the DWT Acquisition were funded with (i) $128,200 of
         senior debt under the Amended Credit Agreement, (ii) $35,000 from the
         issuance of 35,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per
         share, of Holding, (iii) $39 from the issuance of 3,888,889 shares of
         Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of Holding, and (iv) $
         10,000 from the issuance of 400,000 shares of Series A Senior
         Cumulative Exchangeable Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per
         share, of the Company (sold in units together with warrants for the
         purchase of shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of
         Holding).

         The DWT Acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
         accounting whereby the total acquisition cost has been preliminarily
         allocated to the consolidated assets and liabilities based upon their
         estimated respective fair values.  The purchase price allocations are
         still in process.  It is not expected that the final allocation of the
         purchase cost will result in a materially different allocation than is
         presented herein.  The total acquisition cost is preliminarily
         allocated to the acquired net assets as follows:

8.       GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES
 
         The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally (as well as jointly and
         severally) guaranteed on an unsecured, senior subordinated basis by
         each subsidiary of the Company (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries") other
         than Electro Componentes de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. and Wirekraft
         Industries de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries").
         Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries is
         wholly owned by the Company.
 
         The following condensed, consolidating financial statements of the 
         Company include the accounts of the Company, the combined accounts of
         the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the combined accounts of the
         Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Given the size of the Non-Guarantor
         Subsidiaries relative to the Company on a consolidated basis, separate
         financial statements of the respective Guarantor Subsidiaries are not
         presented because management has determined that such information is
         not material in assessing the Guarantor Subsidiaries.
