The financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and notes. Certain amounts from prior-years' financial statements have been reclassified to conform with this year's presentation. The results of operations for the six-month period ended August 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Accounting period ----------------- The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to February 28. Each interim quarter ends on the Saturday closest to the end of the months of May, August and November. 2.

Glass Technologies (GT) - ----------------------- GT's second quarter produced significant revenue and earnings gains when compared to the same period a year ago. The growth was largely due to strong product demand along with improved product mix experienced at Viracon, the segment's high-performance architectural glass fabricator. Tru Vue, the segment's custom picture framing glass unit, also reported revenue and earning gains, largely due to increased volume. Viratec Thin Films (Viratec) had modest operating income versus last year's small operating loss. Viratec's flat glass operations continued to show solid results and reported marked improvement in its coating of curved glass surfaces of cathode ray tubes (CaRT). The CaRT line operated at a modest profit for the quarter. However, the unit needs to significantly improve volumes for the CaRT line to achieve adequate returns. The unit is currently expanding the capacity of both its flat glass and CaRT operations. Based on its backlog and strong demand for its products, GT currently anticipates year-over-year profit growth for all of its units during the latter half of fiscal 1998. Auto Glass (AG) - --------------- AG achieved double-digit growth in both revenues and earnings during the quarter. Approximately one-half of the revenue growth was due to the fourth quarter fiscal 1997 acquisition of Portland Glass. The earnings growth was due in part to better selling prices and cost reductions at the retail and distribution units. During the quarter, same-location sales rose slightly from a year-ago quarter. Curvlite, the segment's -7- windshield fabricating unit, had higher revenues and reported solid earnings growth, due in part to a modest price improvement. At the close of the first six months, the segment had 323 retail and distribution locations in over 40 states. Despite solid earnings results through six months, uncertain demand for automotive replacement glass may cause the segment to report quarterly earning deviations, particularly in the latter half of the fiscal year, the segment's seasonally slower time of the year. Building Products & Services (BPS) - ---------------------------------- BPS reported an operating loss for the second quarter compared with operating income for the same period a year ago. The loss was primarily due to a single curtainwall project in the New Construction unit's European operations. New Construction's domestic operations had a solid operating profit for the quarter and showed marked improvement for the period over a year ago. The unit's focus on job selection and cost reductions resulted in lower revenues with improved margins. The Architectural Products, Detention & Security and Full Service units continued to turn out improved operating results. Improved volume levels along with good product mix led to both revenue and earnings growth for these units. In an August 21, 1997 press release, the Company announced a restructuring charge for BPS's New Construction curtainwall unit. The Company anticipates taking a third-quarter after tax charge of between $11 million and $16 million to exit the unit's Asian operations and rationalize its excess manufacturing capacity in Europe. BPS plans to continue its focus on cost reductions and process improvements, particularly for its European operations, while looking to grow its profitable operations. It currently anticipates favorable year over year comparisons for its New Construction domestic operations and other operating units, but overseas operating losses from New Construction activities will continue to adversely influence earnings, possibly resulting in operating losses for the remainder of the year. Backlog - ------- On August 30, 1998, Apogee's consolidated backlog stood at $332 million, down 17% from the $399 million reported a year ago. The most notable variances were sizable declines in the BPS's New Construction unit's Asian and European backlogs. -8- Consolidated - ------------ The following table compares quarterly results with year-ago results, as a percentage of sales, for each caption.

On a consolidated basis for the three-month and six-month periods, gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, rose as AG and GT reported slightly better pricing and volume growth and BPS reported improved margins for all but its international operations. In addition, the change in sales mix away from the lower-margin curtainwall business also contributed to the improvement. The Company's gross margin also improved due to notably lower insurance costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG & A) were flat for the second quarter due to Company-wide efforts to control such costs. Net interest expense dipped slightly due to lower interest rates and a decline in borrowing levels. The decrease reflected better cash flow and a reduction in working capital needs. The effective income tax rate of 35% decreased due to changes in the domestic and international jurisdictional mix of the Company's operations. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Cash balances were higher at quarter-end due partly to strong receivable collections. Receivables and costs in excess of billings decreased reflecting closure on some longer-term projects at BPS. Inventories grew with the higher sales levels due to the seasonality of many of the Company's businesses. Accrued expenses, accounts payable and billings in excess of costs also declined. Borrowing levels declined modestly from year end. Total debt of $150 million at August 30, 1997, represented 45% of invested capital. -9- Additions to property, plant and equipment totaled $18.2 million for the first half of the fiscal year. Major components of these additions included expenditures for facility expansion and improvement of information systems at all segments.
