PATRICK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. In the opinion of the Registrant, the accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly financial position as of
June 30, 1997, and December 31, 1996, and the results of operations and
cash flows for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
1996.

2. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested
that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in Registrant's December
31, 1996 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the
three months and six months periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

3. The inventories on June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 consist of the
following classes:




June 30 December 31
1997 1996


Raw Materials $ 23,724,808 $ 24,204,345
Work in Process 1,334,765 1,029,127
Finished 3,496,584 5,311,075

Total Manufactured Goods $ 28,556,157 $ 30,544,547

Distribution Products 9,378,507 8,797,959

TOTAL INVENTORIES $ 37,934,664 $ 39,342,506



The inventories are stated at the lower of cost, First-In First-Out (FIFO)
method, or market.

4. The earnings per common share for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996 have been computed based on the weighted average
number of shares of common stock. The weighted average number of shares
outstanding was 5,929,140 for the three months and 5,946,769 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and 5,965,951 for the three months and
5,966,554 for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
Share." SFAS No. 128 requires the presentation of both basic earnings per
share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share will be
computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding. SFAS No. 128 will be effective for the Company's 1997
annual report. If SFAS No. 128 had been in effect during the first six
months of 1997, there would have been no change in basic earnings per
share.


MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS.

GENERAL

The economy and the industries served by the Registrant improved starting
in 1991 as net sales increased annually from $143 million to over $403
million in 1996. This revenue growth showed lower increases in the fourth
quarter of 1996 and decreases in the first six months of 1997.

The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to net sales of
certain items in the Registrant's Statements of Operations:



Three Months Six Months
Ended June 30 Ended June 30
1997 1996 1997 1996


Net Sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0%
Cost of Sales 87.5 86.6 87.6 87.0
Gross Profit 12.5 13.4 12.4 13.0
Warehouse and Delivery 3.7 3.4 3.6 3.5
Selling, General & Administrative 5.1 4.9 5.0 5.0
Operating Income 3.8 5.1 3.8 4.5

Net Income 2.1 3.0 2.1 2.6



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Quarter Ended June 30, 1997 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 1996
Net Sales. Net sales decreased by $0.8 million, or .7%, from $107.4
million for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, to $106.6 million in the quarter
ended June 30, 1997. This sales decrease was attributable to a 2.9% decrease
in units shipped by the Manufactured Housing industry, which represents
approximately 67% of the Registrant's sales. The Registrant's sales to the
Recreational Vehicle industry were the same in this years second quarter as
compared to the 1996 second quarter. The industry, which represents
approximately 16% of Registrant's sales, was experiencing a slight decrease
in units shipped.

Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased by approximately $1.1 million, or
7.7%, from $14.4 million in the second quarter of 1996, to $13.3 million in
the same 1997 quarter. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased
from 13.4% in 1996 to 12.5% in the 1997 second quarter. This decrease was
attributable to reduced volumes in certain operations and competitive market
pressure on product pricing.

Warehouse and Delivery Expenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses
increased approximately $295,000, or 8.2%, from $3.6 million in 1996, to $3.9
million in the second quarter of 1997. As a percentage of net sales,
warehouse and delivery expenses increased from 3.4% in 1996 to 3.7% in the
1997 second quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by approximately $181,000, or 3.5%, from
$5.2 million in 1996, to $5.4 million in 1997. As a percentage of net sales,
selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 4.9% in 1996 to
5.1% in the second quarter of 1997.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased by approximately $1,593,000
because of the decreased sales and the increased operating expenses as
percentages to sales. As a percentage of sales, operating income decreased
from 5.2% in 1996 to 3.8% in the 1997 second quarter.

Financial Expenses, Net. Financial expenses, net increased by
approximately $18,000 from $290,000 in 1996 to $308,000 in the second quarter
of 1997. The Registrant's borrowing levels in the 1997 period were about the
same as in 1996, but invested funds were lower.

Net Income. Net income decreased by approximately $962,000 from $3.2
million in 1996 to $2.2 million in 1997 for the second quarter ended June 30.
This decrease is attributable to the factors described above.


Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1996
Net Sales. Net sales increased by $2.3 million, or 1.2%, from $201.2
million for the six months ended June 30, 1996, to $203.5 million in the six
months ended June 30, 1997. This small increase was attributable to the 2.9%
decline in production in the Manufactured Housing industry in the first six
months of this year. That industry represents approximately 67% of the
Registrant's total sales. The Recreational Vehicle industry, which
represents approximately 16% of total sales of the Registrant, was also not
able to show production increases in the 1997 first six months.

Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased by $.9 million, or 3.5%, from $26.2
million in the first six months of 1996, to $25.3 million in the same period
in 1997. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased from 13.0% in
the first six months of 1996 to 12.4% in 1997. This decrease in the gross
profit percentage was the result of lower volume in certain operations and
highly competitive market pricing on the Registrant's products.

Warehouse and Delivery Expenses. Warehouse and delivery expenses
increased approximately $326,000, or 4.7%, from $7.0 million in 1996, to $7.3
million in the first six months of 1997. As a percentage of net sales,
warehouse and delivery expenses increased from 3.5% for 1996 to 3.6% in 1997.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $110,000, or 1.1%, from $10.2 million in
1996, to $10.3 million in 1997. As a percentage of net sales, selling,
general and administrative expenses remained the same at 5.0% in 1996 and
1997.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased by approximately $1,349,000,
or 14.9%, from $9.1 million in 1996, to $7.7 million in 1997. This decrease
is primarily attributable to the $.9 million decrease in gross profit. As a
percentage of sales, operating income decreased from 4.5% in 1996 to 3.8% in
1997.

Financial Expenses, Net. Financial expenses, net increased by $9,000 from
$587,000 in 1996, to $596,000 in 1997. This increase was due to lower levels
of invested funds.

Net Income. Net income decreased by $821,000 from $5.1 million in 1996,
to $4.3 million in 1997. This decrease in net income is primarily
attributable to the factors described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Registrant's primary capital requirements are to meet working capital
needs, support its capital expenditure plans and meet debt service
requirements.

The Registrant, in September, 1995, issued, to an insurance company in a
private placement, $18,000,000 of senior unsecured notes. The ten year notes
bear interest at 6.82%, with semi-annual interest payments beginning in 1996
and seven annual principal repayments beginning September 15, 1999. These
funds were used to reduce existing bank debt and for working capital needs.

The Registrant has a bank financing agreement (the Credit Agreement) with
NBD Bank, N.A. for a term loan and a revolver loan. In September, 1995 with
funds from the insurance company private placement, the Registrant prepaid
the term loan in full and paid the revolver outstanding balance. The
Revolving Credit Agreement was amended on February 13, 1997 and provides
revolver loan availability of $10,000,000 with maturity in three years.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Registrant is required to maintain
certain financial ratios, all of which are currently complied with.

The Registrant believes that cash generated from operations and borrowings
under its credit agreements will be sufficient to fund its working capital
requirements and ordinary capital expenditures as currently contemplated.

SEASONALITY

Manufacturing operations in the Manufactured Housing and Recreational
Vehicle industries historically have been seasonal and are generally at the
highest levels when the climate is temperate. Accordingly, the Registrant's
sales and profits are generally highest in the second and third quarters.


INFLATION

The Registrant does not believe that inflation had a material effect on
results of operations for the periods presented.
