                           MUELLER INDUSTRIES, INC.
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (Unaudited)


General


     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted.
Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of results which may be expected for any other interim period or
for the year as a whole.  This quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read
in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the
annual financial statements incorporated therein by reference.

     The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements include all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods presented.


Note 1 - Earnings Per Common Share

     Basic per share amounts have been computed based on the average number
of common shares outstanding.  Diluted per share amounts reflect the
increase in average common shares outstanding that would result from the
assumed exercise of outstanding stock options, computed using the treasury
stock method.


Note 2 - Commitments and Contingencies

     The Company is subject to normal environmental standards imposed by
federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations.
Based upon information currently available, management believes that the
outcome of pending environmental matters will not materially affect the
overall financial position and results of operations of the Company.

     In addition, the Company is involved in certain litigation as either
plaintiff or defendant as a result of claims that arise in the ordinary
course of business which management believes will not have a material
effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.


Note 3 - Amortization of Goodwill

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations"
(SFAS No. 141), and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" (SFAS No.
142), effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.  These
Statements eliminated the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for
business combinations and the systematic amortization of goodwill.  SFAS
No. 141 applies to all business combinations with a closing date after June
30, 2001, of which the Company had no such activity.  At the beginning of



                                     -9-


fiscal 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142.  Under the new standard,
purchased goodwill is no longer amortized over its useful life but will be
subject to annual impairment tests.  Therefore, the Company did not incur
any goodwill amortization expense during the first half of 2002.  Goodwill
amortization expense recorded in the second quarter of 2001 was $1.1
million, which had a negative impact of $1.0 million on net income, or 3
cents per diluted share.  For the first six months of 2001, goodwill
amortization expense was $2.2 million, which had a negative impact of $1.9
million on net income, or 5 cents per diluted share.

     During the quarter ended June 29, 2002, the Company performed the
first of the required impairment tests of goodwill.  No impairment loss
resulted from the initial goodwill impairment test.

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
            Results of Operations


General Overview

     Mueller Industries, Inc. is a leading manufacturer of copper tube and
fittings; brass and copper alloy rod, bar and shapes; aluminum and brass
forgings; aluminum and copper impact extrusions; plastic fittings and
valves; refrigeration valves and fittings; and fabricated tubular products.
Mueller's operations are located throughout the United States and in
Canada, Mexico, France, and Great Britain.  The Company also owns a short
line railroad in Utah.







                                     -12-


     The Company's businesses are managed and organized into three
segments: (i) Standard Products Division (SPD); (ii) Industrial Products
Division (IPD); and (iii) Other Businesses. SPD manufactures and sells
copper tube, and copper and plastic fittings and valves.  Outside of the
United States, SPD manufactures copper tube in Europe.  SPD sells these
products to wholesalers in the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air-
conditioning), plumbing and refrigeration markets, to distributors to the
manufactured housing and recreational vehicle industries, and to building
material retailers.  IPD manufactures and sells brass and copper alloy rod,
bar, and shapes; aluminum and brass forgings; aluminum and copper impact
extrusions; refrigeration valves and fittings; fabricated tubular products;
and gas valves and assemblies.  IPD sells its products primarily to
original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), many of which are in the HVAC,
plumbing and refrigeration markets.  Other Businesses is composed primarily
of Utah Railway Company.  SPD and IPD account for more than 98 percent of
consolidated net sales and more than 83 percent of consolidated total
assets.

     New housing starts and commercial construction are important
determinants of the Company's sales to the HVAC, refrigeration and plumbing
markets because the principal end use of a significant portion of the
Company's products is in the construction of single and multi-family
housing and commercial buildings.  Profitability of certain of the
Company's product lines depends upon the "spreads" between the cost of
raw material and the selling prices of its completed products.  The open
market prices for copper cathode and scrap, for example, influence the
selling price of copper tubing, a principal product manufactured by the
Company.  The Company attempts to minimize the effects of fluctuations in
material costs by passing through these costs to its customers.  Spreads
fluctuate based upon market conditions.


Results of Operations

     Net income was $18.5 million, or 50 cents per diluted share, for the
second quarter of 2002, compared with net income of $20.8 million, or 56
cents per diluted share, for the same period of 2001.  Year-to-date, net
income was $36.4 million, or 98 cents per diluted share, compared with net
income of $36.2 million, or 97 cents per diluted share, for 2001.

     During the second quarter of 2002, the Company's net sales were $277.2
million, which compares with net sales of $286.0 million, or a three
percent decrease over the same period of 2001.  Net sales were $545.3
million in the first half of 2002 compared with $562.6 million in 2001.
The average price of copper was approximately six percent lower in the
first half of 2002 compared with the same period of 2001, which contributed
to the decrease in net sales.  During the second quarter of 2002, the
Company's manufacturing businesses shipped 198 million pounds of product
compared to 186 million pounds in the same quarter of 2001.  The Company
shipped 393 million pounds of product in the first half of 2002 compared
with 362 million in the same period of 2001.






                                     -13-



     Cost of goods sold decreased from $219.1 million in the second quarter
of 2001 to $216.3 million in the same period of 2002.  This decrease was
attributable to lower material costs and production efficiencies.  Selling,
general, and administrative expense increased from $22.8 million in 2001 to
$23.1 million in the second quarter of 2002, resulting from the increase in
volume.  Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $9.8 million
and $19.6 million for the second quarter and first half of 2002,
respectively, compared with $10.5 million in the second quarter and $21.0
million in the first half of 2001.  The decrease was due to discontinuing
goodwill amortization as described in Note 3, offset by increased
depreciation due to recent capital expenditures.

     Second quarter and first half operating income decreased from the
comparable periods in the prior year primarily due to reduced spreads in
certain product lines, primarily domestic and European copper tube.  The
Company's European operations were below break-even in the second quarter,
but still show a modest profit for the first half of 2002.

     Interest expense for the second quarter of 2002 totaled $0.3 million
compared with $0.7 million in the same quarter of 2001.  For the first six
months of 2002, interest expense was $0.8 million compared with $2.1
million for the same period of 2001.  The Company capitalized $0.4 million
of interest related to capital improvement programs in the first half of
2001 while none was capitalized in 2002.  Total interest in the second
quarter and first half of 2002 decreased due to lower funded balances.

     The Company's effective income tax rate for the first half of 2002 was
36.0 percent compared with 38.0 percent for the first half of last year.
This rate decrease is due to realization of tax benefits attributable to
European earnings.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash provided by operating activities in the first half of 2002
totaled $55.9 million which is primarily attributable to net income,
depreciation and amortization, income tax benefit from exercise of stock
options, deferred income taxes, and increased current liabilities, offset
by increased receivables.

     During the first six months of 2002, the Company used $9.9 million for
investing activities, consisting primarily of $13.6 million for capital
expenditures.  The Company also used $39.9 million for financing activities
consisting of $32.1 million for repayments of long-term debt and $10.5
million for repurchases of treasury stock.  Existing cash balances, cash
from operations, and IRB proceeds were used to fund the first half
investing and financing activities.









                                     -14-


     During the six months ended June 29, 2002, the Chairman of the
Company's Board of Directors, Mr. Harvey L. Karp, exercised options to
purchase 914,300 shares of Company stock.  As provided in Mr. Karp's option
agreement, the Company withheld the number of shares, at their fair market
value, sufficient to cover the minimum withholding taxes incurred by the
exercise.  These shares withheld have been classified as acquisition of
treasury stock on the Company's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.  The
income tax benefit of $10.3 million from the exercise of stock options was
recognized as a direct addition to additional paid-in capital and,
therefore, had no effect on the Company's earnings.

     On October 18, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of up to four million shares of the Company's common stock from
time-to-time over the next year through open market transactions or through
privately negotiated transactions.  During 2000, this authorization was
expanded and extended to repurchase up to a total of ten million shares.
During 2001, the authorization was extended through October, 2002.  The
Company has no obligation to purchase any shares and may cancel, suspend,
or extend the time period for the purchase of shares at any time.  The
purchases will be funded primarily through existing cash and cash from
operations.  The Company may hold such shares in treasury or use a portion
of the repurchased shares for employee benefit plans, as well as for other
corporate purposes.  Through June 29, 2002, the Company has repurchased
approximately 2.3 million shares under this authorization.

     The Company has an unsecured $200 million revolving credit facility
(the Credit Facility), which matures in November 2003.  At June 29, 2002,
there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.  Borrowings
under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at (i)
LIBOR plus a variable premium or (ii) the larger of Prime, or the Federal
Funds rate plus .50 percent.  LIBOR advances may be based upon the one,
two, three, or six-month LIBOR.  The variable premium over LIBOR is based
on certain financial ratios, and can range from 25 to 40 basis points.
Additionally, a facility fee is payable quarterly on the total commitment
and varies from 12.5 to 22.5 basis points based upon the Company's
capitalization ratios.  When funded debt is 50 percent or more of the
commitment, a utilization fee is payable quarterly on the average loan
balance outstanding and varies from 0 to 20 basis points based upon the
capitalization ratio.  Availability of funds under the Credit Facility is
reduced by the amount of certain outstanding letters of credit, which
totaled approximately $5.7 million at June 29, 2002.

     Under the above Agreement the Company is required, among other things,
to maintain certain minimum levels of net worth and meet certain minimum
financial ratios.  The Company is in compliance with all debt covenants.

     The Company's major capital projects were substantially complete in
2001, including casting facilities at the Company's brass rod mill,
modernization of the European copper tube mill, and installation of an
additional extrusion press at the Company's Fulton, Mississippi, copper
tube mill.  The Company expects to invest between $25 and $35 million for
capital projects during 2002.





                                     -15-


     Management believes that cash provided by operations and currently
available cash of $129.2 million will be adequate to meet the Company's
normal future capital expenditure and operational needs.  The Company's
current ratio is 3.6 to 1 at June 29, 2002.
