DECEMBER 31, 1999
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited, condensed, consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim
periods covered have been included. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Maxcos
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1999.
The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. Certain other
amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the current presentation.

NOTE 3 Marketable Securities
The Company classifies its marketable securities as securities available for
sale under FASB 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the
unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of
stockholders equity. Beginning in November 1999, Maxco accounted for its
investment in Provant Inc. common stock as securities available for sale, as
these shares are no longer restricted stock as defined by FASB 115. At December
31,1999 the unrealized gain on this stock and other securities available for
sale was approximately $1,962,000 net of deferred tax.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MAXCO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
DECEMBER 31, 1999
MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
Operating activities generated $2.2 million in cash for the nine months.
Individual working capital component levels increased over the March 31, 1999
level, primarily due to the higher sales levels by the Companys construction
supplies unit (Ersco) as well as the addition of working capital components of
acquired businesses added to this unit.
Investing activities included the purchases by Ersco of businesses in the St.
Louis market area. Cash was also used in investing activities during the nine
months at Ersco to purchase forms used for rental to its customers and
additional equipment for Maxcos heat-treating unit (Atmosphere Annealing).
During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, Integral Vision, Inc. (formerly Medar,
Inc.), Maxcos 25% owned affiliated company, sold its welding division for cash
and debt. Consequently, payment was received of the full balance due of $750,000
on subordinated debentures held by Maxco.
Net proceeds from additional long-term debt were used primarily to fund the
acquisition of Erscos St. Louis branch and the purchase of equipment at Ersco
and Atmosphere Annealing.
At December 31, 1999 Maxco had available $6.3 million on its lines of credit
which provide for up to $33.0 million for acquisitions and general corporate
purposes.
Beginning in November 1999 Maxco accounted for its investment in Provant Inc.
common stock as securities available for sale as these shares are no longer
restricted stock as defined by FASB 115. Consequently, the securities are
carried at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses net of tax, reported
as a separate component of stockholders equity. At December 31,1999 the
unrealized gain on this stock was approximately $2.0 million net of tax.
The Company believes that its current financial resources, together with cash
generated from operations and its available resources under its lines of credit,
will be adequate to meet its cash requirements for the next twelve months.
MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to 1998
Net sales increased to $34.0 million compared to $29.7 million in last years
third quarter. Third quarter results reflect operating earnings of $263,000
compared to $840,000 for the comparable period in 1998. Net loss was $493,000 or
$.19 per share assuming dilution compared to last years net income of $129,000
or $.01 per share assuming dilution.
11
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
MAXCO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Higher sales in the current period occurred at Maxcos construction supplies
unit (Ersco) over the comparable 1998 period primarily as a result of sales
generated by branches added since the third quarter of last year in the St.
Louis and Columbus metropolitan areas. Sales at Atmosphere Annealing and Pak-Sak
were relatively comparable with the prior year comparable period.
Consolidated gross profit (net sales less cost of sales and operating expenses)
increased to $8.2 million or approximately 24% of sales from $6.9 million or 23%
of sales. The construction supplies unit generated additional gross profit in
the current period over last year due to its increased sales level. Gross margin
at this unit was higher in the current quarter due primarily to the increase in
sales of higher margin products such as rentals and associated accessories. A
higher proportion of these sales were from inventory which generally have a
higher margin as compared to sales made on a direct shipment basis. The higher
proportion of sales from inventory were attributable in part to the recently
acquired St. Louis branches of Ersco. Improvements in gross margin also occurred
at Maxcos heat-treating unit as efficiency improvements resulting from the
completion of certain major capital projects were realized.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased to $6.7 million from
$5.2 million. The increase is primarily attributable to the construction
supplies segment due to additional operating costs associated with new
locations, increases in staffing levels, and other expenses incurred to support
the planned growth of this unit.
The increase in depreciation expense in 1999 was attributable to depreciation by
Ersco on purchases of rental forms and shoring equipment and depreciation of
assets from its acquired businesses, as well as depreciation by Atmosphere
Annealing on new equipment, including a new coating line, additional furnaces,
and facility improvements made late in the prior year. The increase in
amortization expense was attributable to the goodwill recorded as a result of
acquisitions by Ersco since the third quarter of last year.
As a result of the above, operating earnings decreased to approximately $263,000
from $840,000 in last years comparable period.
Net interest expense increased in 1999 from the prior year quarter due to
additional long-term borrowings and reduction in marketable securities, the
proceeds of which were used primarily for additional purchases of property and
equipment and the purchase of businesses.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Maxco, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Nine Months Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to 1998
Net sales increased to $125.2 million compared to $100.9 million in last years
comparable nine-month period. Results for this period include operating earnings
of $5.6 million compared to $4.2 million for the comparable period in 1998. Net
income was $2.7 million or $.75 per share assuming dilution compared to last
years $1.9 million or $.47 per share assuming dilution.
Higher sales in the current nine-month period occurred at Maxcos construction
supplies unit (Ersco) over the comparable 1998 period primarily as a result of a
8.1% increase in same branch sales, and sales of approximately $15.6 million
generated by branches added since the third quarter of last year in the St.
Louis, Columbus, and Louisville metropolitan areas. A strong general
construction market resulting from an overall stable and growing general
economy, increased availability of federal highway repair dollars, as well as an
increase in form rental revenues were primary reasons for the increase in same
branch sales for the nine months. Sales at Atmosphere Annealing increased in the
current nine-month period over the comparable nine-month period last year in
part because last years sales levels were depressed due to a labor strike at
one of its automotive customers. Additionally, sales of coating and other
services increased due to greater processing capabilities of equipment and
facilities recently placed in service.
Consolidated gross profit (net sales less cost of sales and operating expenses)
increased to $29.4 million or approximately 23% of sales from $21.8 million or
22% of sales. The construction supplies unit generated additional gross profit
in the current period over last year due to its increased sales level. Gross
margin at this unit was higher for the current nine-month period due to
increased levels of rental revenues, sales of higher margin products, as well as
a higher proportion of sales from inventory. Inventory sales generally have
higher margins as compared to sales on a direct shipment basis. The higher
proportion of products sold from inventory was primarily attributable to Erscos
acquisition of its St. Louis branch where sales are primarily made on this
basis. Improvements in gross margin also occurred at Maxcos heat-treating unit
as efficiency improvements resulting from the completion of certain major
capital projects were realized.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased to $20.2 million from
$15.3 million. The increase was in large part attributable to the construction
supplies segment where selling expenses were higher due to increased sales.
Also, additional operating costs associated with its new locations and their
related selling activities were incurred since the third quarter of last year.
Additionally, staffing levels were increased at Atmosphere Annealing and Ersco
to support their planned growth. At December 31,1999 Maxcos total number of
employees was 795 compared to 670 at December 31, 1998.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
MAXCO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
The increase in depreciation expense in 1999 was attributable to depreciation by
Ersco on purchases of rental forms and shoring equipment as well as assets of its
acquired businesses. Additionally, depreciation by Atmosphere Annealing also
increased as a result of new equipment including a new coating line, additional
furnaces, and facility improvements placed in service late in the prior year.
The increase in amortization expense was attributable to the goodwill recorded
as a result of acquisitions by Ersco since the third quarter of last year.
As a result of the above, operating earnings increased to approximately $5.6
million from $4.2 million in last years comparable period.
Net interest expense increased from the prior year due to additional long-term
borrowings and reduction in marketable securities, the proceeds of which were
used primarily for additional purchases of property and equipment and the
purchase of businesses.
NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 137, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Statement 137 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company expects to adopt the
new statement effective April 1, 2001. The statement requires the Company to
recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company has
not evaluated the potential effect the adoption of this statement will have on
its results of operations or financial condition.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Companys variable interest expense is sensitive to changes in the general
level of United States interest rates. Some of the Companys interest expense is
fixed through long-term borrowings to mitigate the impact of such potential
exposure. Additionally, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement
based on a notional amount of $5.0 million to manage its exposure to interest
rate changes. The swap involves the exchange of fixed and variable interest
payments without changing the notional principal amount. The Company had total
outstanding variable rate long-term borrowings of $43.2 million at December 31,
1999. A 1% increase from the prevailing interest rates at December 31, 1999 on
the unhedged variable rate portion of the Companys long-term borrowings would
increase interest expense by $386,000 based on principal balances at December
31, 1999.
