         FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
         AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995

         TOGETHER WITH AUDITORS' REPORT


<PAGE>

                      REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS 




To the Administrative Committee of the 
TJ International, Inc. Investment Plan:
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the TJ International, Inc. Investment Plan (the Plan) as of December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for plan benefits for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of TJ International, Inc.'s management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our
audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as
of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
 
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The Fund Information in Supplemental
Schedules 1 and 2 is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than
to present the statement of net assets available for plan benefits and the
statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits of each fund. 
The Supplemental Schedules 3 and 4 are presented for purposes of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                          NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 
1.  PLAN DESCRIPTION:

GENERAL

The TJ International, Inc. Investment Plan (the Plan) is a defined contribution
plan sponsored by TJ International, Inc. (the Company).  The Plan is
administered by an Administrative Committee (the Committee) appointed by the
Company's Board of Directors.  The following description of the Plan provides
general information and does not include all the detail contained in the Plan
document.

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on October 13, 1995, in which
the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) stated that the Plan, as then designated, was
in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. 
The Plan has submitted an application for the Plan restatement adopted effective
January 1, 1996. The Company and Plan legal counsel believe the Plan is designed
and currently operated in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Substantially all eligible employees are participants in the Plan.  The
following accounts are maintained by fund for each participant:

*   An elective contribution account consisting of participant contributions in
    selected amounts between 2% to 15% of participant's eligible compensation,
    limited to a maximum contribution as set by the Internal Revenue Service.  

*   A company matching contribution account consisting of the Company match
    contribution equal to 100% of the first 2% of a participant's contributed
    eligible compensation and 50% of the next 4% of a participant's contributed
    eligible compensation. The Company's maximum matching contribution is 4% of
    a participant's eligible compensation.

*   Three profit sharing contribution accounts consisting of a general profit
    sharing account, an ESOP Common Stock account and an ESOP Preferred Stock
    account.  The annual Company profit sharing contribution is determined by a
    formula based on the Company's net income.  The Company's Board of
    Directors has discretionary powers to invest this contribution in one or
    any combination of these profit sharing accounts.  A profit sharing
    contribution to the ESOP Preferred Stock account results in interest and
    principal payments on the leveraged ESOP loan releasing preferred shares to
    be allocated to participant accounts.  These contributions, as well as any
    forfeitures, are allocated using a formula based on participants' eligible
    compensation.

*   An elective contribution account consisting of participants' employee
    pre-1973 after-tax contributions made to the Plan prior to 1973.  

*   A rollover contribution account consisting of a participant's distributions
    from a qualified employer plan.


CONTRIBUTIONS

Employee contributions and the related company matching contributions are
credited to the participants' accounts as payrolls are processed throughout the
year.  The Company's profit sharing and forfeiture reallocation contributions
are credited to the participants' accounts annually.  The Company matching,
profit sharing and


                                          3
<PAGE>

forfeiture reallocation are subject to vesting provisions of the Plan as
described in Note 7.  The Company has the discretion regarding the use of
forfeitures inasmuch as the Company can reduce Plan expenses, reduce future
employer contributions or reallocate the amount to the remaining participants
using a formula based on participants' eligible compensation.  Participants are
always fully vested in their elective contribution, pre-1973 after-tax
contribution and rollover contribution account balances.

BENEFIT PAYMENTS

On termination of employment for account balances equal to $3,500 or more, a
participant may elect to receive an amount equal to the value of the
participant's vested interest in his or her account in either a joint and
survivor annuity, a lump-sum payment or in annual installments over a maximum
ten-year period.

On termination of employment for account balances less than $3,500, a
participant will receive a lump-sum payment equal to the value of the
participant's vested interest in his or her account balance.

PARTICIPANT LOANS

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $2,000 up to a
maximum equal to the lessor of $50,000 or 50 percent of their account balance,
excluding Company contributions.  A participant's outstanding loan balance is
reported in the Participant Loan Fund.  Loan terms range from 1-5 years and bear
interest at a rate equal to prime plus one percent updated monthly.  The loans
are secured by the balance in the participant's accounts.  Interest rates range
from 9.25% to 10%.  Principal and interest is paid ratably through bi-weekly
payroll deductions.

TRUSTEE AND INVESTMENT MANAGER

The assets of the Plan are held in trust (the Trust) by Fidelity Management
Trust Company (the Trustee).

Investment of earnings or losses are allocated to each participant based on
account balances at the end of each business day.  The participant account
balances in each fund are determined based on the applicable closing prices
adjusted for any increase or decrease for interest, dividends and expenses
related to management of the funds.

The Plan's investment manager has discretionary authority to invest the assets
of the Plan consistent with the fund's investment objectives.  The investment
manager's performance is periodically reviewed and evaluated by the Committee. 

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Plan provides that operating and administrative expenses, investment asset
management fees, brokerage commissions, trust services and related expenses are
payable from the assets of the Plan unless stated otherwise.  In addition, each
participant is charged an annual account fee determined by the Committee.

2.  ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES:

Effective January 1, 1996, the TJ International, Inc. Pension & Profit Sharing
Plan was renamed the TJ International, Inc. Investment Plan (TIP).  Effective
April 12, 1996, the assets of the TJ International, Inc. Employee Stock
Ownership Plan were merged into the Plan and Fidelity Investments became the
investment manager, trustee and recordkeeper for the new consolidated investment
plan. Effective April 1, 1996, the number of investment options for participant
directed funds increased from four funds to six funds and the Company began
making its matching contribution in TJ International, Inc. common stock.

3.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The Plan's financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting and require the use of management's estimates.  Profit sharing
contributions from the Company are recorded in conformity with the Company's
funding policy and were received subsequent to year-end.  The accrual basis of
accounting requires that purchases and sales of securities be recorded on a
trade date basis.  Accordingly, dividends are accrued when declared, and
allocated in conformity with the Plan.  Benefits are recorded when paid.

Assets of the Plan are valued at fair value, except for the Managed Income Fund
and Investment Contract Fund, which is valued at contract value at December 31,
1996 and 1995, respectively.  Market value fluctuations in the Managed Income
Fund reflect changes in the effective yield on the underlying securities and
have been included in interest income.  Beginning in 1996, the investment funds
managed by Fidelity are valued net of management fees.  Net appreciation
(depreciation) in fair value of assets includes both realized and unrealized
gains and losses of the assets during the Plan years.

Certain reclassifications were made, none of which effected net assets, to
conform prior years' information to the current year's presentation.

4.   INVESTMENTS:

The following is a brief description of the investment funds:

   - INVESTMENT CONTRACT FUND is a stable value fund.  The Investment Contract 
     Fund is a combination of individual guaranteed investment contracts
     ("GICs") and collectively invested GICs held by U.S. Trust Company and
     managed by Morley Capital Management, Inc., Portland, Oregon.  The
     Investment Contract Fund invests in GICs issued by insurance companies and
     short-term investments.  The contracts included in the financial statements
     are at contract value.  Contract value represents contributions made under
     the contract, plus interest, less plan withdrawals and administrative
     expenses.
 
   - BALANCED FUND is a growth and income fund that seeks to protect principal 
     against inflation through income and market appreciation.  The investment
     objective of the Balanced Fund is to provide a positive annual rate of
     return and preservation of principal over a full market cycle.  The
     Balanced Fund is invested as part of a collective investment fund held by
     Columbia Trust Company, Portland, Oregon, as custodian.  The Balanced Fund
     may invest in stocks, bonds, real estate, guaranteed investment contracts,
     short-term investments and other assets deemed appropriate by the fund
     investment manager.
 
   - DIVERSIFIED STOCK FUND is a growth fund that seeks to provide market 
     appreciation.  The investment objective of the Diversified Stock Fund is to

At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Managed Income Fund and Investment Contract
Fund, respectively, invested in insurance contracts with stated interest rates
ranging from 7.00% to 7.92%.  The effective yields during these periods were
6.07% and 6.62%, respectively.  At December 31, 1996, the fair value of the
managed income fund was $18,091,748. At December 31, 1995, the fair value of the
investment contract fund approximated contract value.

In August 1994, Confederation Life was seized by Canadian insurance regulators. 
The balance recorded on this contract at December 31, 1996 of $652,528,
represents the contract's principal amount plus accrued interest through the
date of seizure.  No interest has been accrued on the contract subsequent to the
date of seizure.  In March 1997, the Committee elected to receive, from
Confederation Life Insurance Company, a rehabilitation payment option of
approximately $695,277 by May 31, 1997.

5.   CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK AND ESOP LOAN:

On September 21, 1990, the former TJ International, Inc. Employee Stock
Ownership Plan acquired 1,269,842 shares of Preferred Stock for $15,000,009, or
$11.8125 per share, using the proceeds of the ESOP loan made to the Trustee by
the Company.  

Preferred Stock is convertible into Company common stock or cash, at the 
Company's option, at a redemption ratio or value equal to one share of common 
stock for each share of Preferred Stock.  However, the Preferred Stock cannot 
be redeemed for a value less than the liquidation preference of $11.8125 per 
share. The Preferred Stock pays an annual dividend of $1.063125 per share.  
The Preferred Stock is redeemable at the Company's option after December 31, 
2000 and under certain circumstances prior to that date.  The Preferred Stock 
is held solely by the Trustee for the Plan and is not available for trading 
outside the Trust.  Upon redemption by the Company, the shares of Preferred 
Stock will be permanently retired.

The Preferred Stock is held in a separate "ESOP Suspense Account" pending
release to participants and is pledged as collateral for the ESOP loan.  The
number of shares allocated to plan participants for a plan year is determined by
a formula that divides principal and interest to be paid for the current plan
year by the sum of the remaining total principal and interest payments due,
including amounts due in the current year, and multiplied by the shares in the
suspense account.  Shares are released from the ESOP Suspense Account as
principal and interest are paid.  Below

the loan, March 31, 2011 and imposes no penalty for prepayment of the principal
prior to the maturity date.

For 1996 and 1995, principal payments of $1,594,468 and $334,125 were paid on
the ESOP loan.  All principal payments on the ESOP loan made prior to April 12,
1996, relate to the former TJ International, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

6.   CONTRIBUTIONS:

Participants in the Plan may make elective contributions to any of the
participant directed investment options.  Effective April 1, 1996, the Company's
matching contributions are invested in the TJ International, Inc. Common Stock
Fund.

The Company's Board of Directors, as allowed by the Plan, directed the annual
profit sharing contributions as follows:

   - The Company made general profit sharing contributions of $1,398,253 and $-
     0- for 1996 and 1995, respectively.  This general profit sharing
     contribution is invested based on the participant elective contribution.

   - The Company did not make an ESOP Common profit sharing contribution for 
     1996 and 1995, respectively.

   - The Company made ESOP Preferred profit sharing contributions, based on 
     principal loan payments, of $1,077,947 and $1,395,000 for 1996 and 1995,
     respectively.  The 1995 Company contribution was related to the former TJ
     International, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan.  The principal payments
     include additional amounts resulting in the excess of preferred dividends
     over interest expense.

As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Plan consisted of approximately 2,445 and
2,046 participants, respectively, some of whom have elected to invest in more
than one fund.  The approximate number of participants investing in each fund
was:

7.   VESTING:

Upon termination of employment, participants are entitled to receive elective
contributions, pre-1973 after tax contributions, rollover contributions and any
vested portion of the Company's contributions.  Participants become vested as
follows:

                Completed Years    7 or                          2 or
               of Vesting Service  more       6    5    4    3   less
               ------------------  ----------------------------------
               Vested Percentage   100%      80%  60%  40%  20%   0%

In the event employment terminates prior to the completion of seven years of
vested service for any reason other than retirement, death or disability, a
participant forfeits the non-vested portion in his or her account balance.  The
Plan's break in service provisions provide that the forfeiture of non-vested
participant's account balance and credited years of service will occur in the
year that plan participation ceases.  However, if the participant returns to
active participation before the fifth consecutive one-year break in service, the
non-vested account balance will be reinstated to the participant's account.  A
one-year break in service is a plan year in which a participant is credited with
500 or less hours of service.  These 


                                        9
<PAGE>

forfeitures, totaling $467,000 and $656,172 in 1996 and 1995, respectively, are
allocated to the remaining participants in the Plan.  In addition, the Plan had
$70,955 and $112,653 of unallocated forfeitures as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.

In the event of a Plan termination, the accounts of all participants affected by
such termination shall become fully vested and thereafter not subject to
forfeiture.

8.   PLAN TRANSFERS AND MERGER:

In compliance with the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the Company's Employee Stock
Ownership Plan (ESOP) participants age 55 or older and with at least ten years
of ESOP participation have the opportunity to diversify their investment from
Company stock to any of the six participant directed investment options.
Eligible ESOP participants may elect to transfer all or a portion of their
account balance.  Eligible participants elected to irrevocably transfer their
account balances totaling $356,404 and $173,326 in 1996 and 1995, respectively,
from the ESOP to the Plan.  In addition, eligible participants elected to
irrevocably transfer $201,791 in 1996 from the ESOP Common and ESOP Preferred
stock funds to the participant directed funds.

Effective April 12, 1996, the accounts of the Company's former TJ International,
Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) were merged into the Plan.  The ESOP
transferred $20,011,578 of assets and a $192,044 benefit payable into the Plan.
