                            PATRICK INDUSTRIES, INC.
                NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       In the opinion of the Company,  the  accompanying  unaudited  condensed
         financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
         recurring  accruals and the  adjustment  for the  impairment of certain
         long-lived  assets as discussed in Note 5) necessary to present  fairly
         the financial position as of March 31, 2001, and December 31, 2000, and
         the results of  operations  and cash flows for the three  months  ended
         March 31, 2001 and 2000.

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  Company's
         December  31,  2000  audited  financial  statements.   The  results  of
         operations  for the three month  periods  ended March 31, 2001 and 2000
         are not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected for the
         full year.

3.       The  inventories on March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000 consist of the
         following classes:



                                                              March 31            December 31

         Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out (FIFO)
         method) or market.

4.       Loss per common  share for the three  months  ended  March 31, 2001 and
         2000 have been  computed  based on the weighted  average  common shares
         outstanding  of 4,517,977  and  5,346,346  respectively.  Stock options
         outstanding are immaterial and had no effect on earnings per share.

         Dividends  per common  share for the three  months ended March 31, 2001
         and 2000 were $.04 per share.

5.       The  Company  recognized  a  non-cash  accounting  charge  in the first
         quarter of 2000 related to an impairment of certain  long-lived  assets
         as  required  by SFAS 121.  The  carrying  values of these  assets were
         calculated  on the basis of discounted  estimated  future cash flow and
         resulted in a charge to operations of $6,937,163 or $.80 per share, net
         of tax.  This charge was  recognized  as an impairment of assets in the
         March 31, 2000 financial statements.  The SFAS 121 charge had no impact
         on the Company's 2000 cash flow or its ability to generate cash flow in
         the  future.  As a  result  of the SFAS 121  charge,  depreciation  and
         amortization  expense  related to these assets will  decrease in future
         periods.

6.       The Company's reportable segments are as follows:

         Laminating   -   Utilizes   various    materials    including   gypsum,

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

GENERAL

         Due  to  the  overall   downturn  in  the   Manufactured   Housing  and
Recreational Vehicle industries, the Company's sales in fiscal 2000 declined 21%
from the previous year to $362 million. The downturn in the Manufactured Housing
industry  began in the  fourth  quarter  of 1999 due to retail  sales lots being
overstocked and unit  production  being reduced  approximately  7% that year. In
fiscal  2000 the  Manufactured  Housing  industry  was down  nearly 29% in units
shipped  and  produced  due to the  limited  availability  of dealer  and retail
financing,  as  well  as  excessive  retail  inventory  levels,  which  included
repossessed units. The decline in the Recreational Vehicle industry began in the
second quarter of 2000 due to the Recreational  Vehicle dealers making inventory
corrections.  The end  result of this was an  approximate  7%  decline  in units
shipped and produced in that  particular  industry  for the twelve  months ended
December 31, 2000. The first quarter of 2001 showed similar results as shipments
and production in the Manufactured  Housing industry were down approximately 42%
and shipments in the Recreational Vehicle industry were down nearly 24% from the
same  quarter of 2000.  The  Company's  sales to the  Manufactured  Housing  and
Recreational   Vehicle   industries  were  down   approximately   35%  and  31%,
respectively.  These  conditions  are  expected to  continue  through the end of
fiscal  2001.  The  Company's  sales  are 48% to  Manufactured  Housing,  26% to
Recreational Vehicle, and 26% to other industries.

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

         Net Sales. Net sales decreased by $31.5 million,  or 31.6%,  from $99.8
million in the  quarter  ended  March 31,  2000 to $68.3  million in the quarter
ended March 31,  2001.  This  decrease was a direct  result of an estimated  42%
decrease in units shipped and produced in the Manufactured  Housing industry and
an estimated 24% decrease in units shipped in the Recreational  Vehicle industry
in the first quarter 2001.

         Gross Profit.  Gross profit decreased by $3.7 million,  or 34.1%,  from
$10.8  million in the first quarter of 2000 compared to $7.1 million in the same
quarter of 2001. As a percentage of net sales,  gross profit decreased 0.4% from
10.8% in the first  quarter of 2000 to 10.4% in the first  quarter of 2001.  The
overall  decrease was due to a 31.6%  decrease in  consolidated  net sales.  The
decrease in gross  profits as a percentage  of net sales  indicates  that market
conditions  are still  highly  competitive  resulting  in the  inability  of the
Company to increase selling prices without losing business.

                                       8



         Warehouse  and  Delivery  Expenses.  Warehouse  and  delivery  expenses
decreased  $0.7 million  from $4.1 million in the first  quarter of 2000 to $3.4
million in the first quarter of 2001.  As a percentage  of net sales,  warehouse
and delivery  expenses  increased 0.9% from 4.1% in the first quarter of 2000 to
5.0% in the first quarter of 2001.  This increase is attributable to lower sales
levels  and higher  shipping  costs  specifically  related  to the  increase  in
gasoline  prices  over the past year and  transportation  companies  running  at
capacity.

         Selling,  General, and Administrative Expenses.  Selling,  general, and
administrative  expenses  decreased $0.5 million,  or 7.4%, from $6.8 million in
the quarter  ended March 31, 2000 to $6.3 million in the quarter ended March 31,
2001.  As a  percentage  of net  sales,  selling,  general,  and  administrative
expenses  increased  2.4% from 6.9% in the first  quarter of 2000 to 9.3% in the
first quarter of 2001.  The overall  decrease is due to the Company  making cost
and staffing  reductions.  The increase in costs as a percentage of net sales is
due  to  reduced  volumes  as a  result  of  the  decline  in  shipments  in the
Manufactured Housing and Recreational Vehicle industries.

         Impairment Charges. As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements,
the Company recognized an impairment charge of $6.9 million in the first quarter
of 2000.

         Operating  Loss.  The operating loss decreased from $7.2 million in the
first  quarter  of 2000 to $2.7  million  in the  first  quarter  of  2001.  The
operating  loss for the first quarter of 2000 is due primarily to the impairment
charges of $6.9 million and similar operating costs from quarter to quarter. The
operating  loss for the first  quarter  of 2001 is due to the  decline  in sales
volume related to the industries which the Company serves.

         Interest  Expense,  Net.  Interest  expense,  net of  interest  income,
decreased  24.2% from  $314,000 in the first  quarter of 2000 to $238,000 in the
same period in 2001. This decrease is attributable to more funds invested in the
first  quarter 2001 as a result of reduced  working  capital  needs,  as well as
lower long-term debt levels due to normal debt service requirements.

         Net Loss.  The Company  experienced a net loss after interest and taxes
in the  first  quarters  of 2000 and  2001 of $4.6  million  and  $1.7  million,
respectively. These losses are attributable to the factors described above.


Quarter Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1999

         Net Sales.  Net sales  decreased by $7.5 million,  or 7.0%, from $107.3
million in the  quarter  ended  March 31,  1999 to $99.8  million in the quarter
ended March 31,  2000.  This  decrease was a direct  result of an estimated  21%
decrease in units shipped and 22% decrease in units produced in the Manufactured
Housing industry in the first quarter 2000.

         Gross Profit.  Gross profit decreased by $3.2 million,  or 23.1%,  from
$14.0 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $10.8 million in the same
quarter in 2000. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased 2.2%, from
13.0% in the first  quarter  of 1999 to 10.8% in the first  quarter  2000.  This
decrease was due to a 7.0% decrease in consolidated  net sales as well as highly
competitive market conditions affecting margins.  Several of our operations have
reduced  prices in order to  maintain  sales  which has  resulted in lower gross
profits.

         Warehouse  and  Delivery  Expenses.  Warehouse  and  delivery  expenses
increased  $0.3  million,  from $3.8  million in the first  quarter 1999 to $4.1
million in the first quarter  2000. As a percentage of net sales,  warehouse and
delivery  expenses  increased  from 3.6% in the first quarter of 1999 to 4.1% in
the first quarter 2000.  This increase is attributable to lower sales levels and
higher shipping costs specifically related to the increase in gasoline prices in
the first quarter 2000.

         Selling,  General,  and Administrative  Expenses.  For the period ended
March 31, 1999,  a $0.6 million gain on sale of assets has been  included in the
selling, general, and administrative expenses. Exclusive of the gain on the sale
of assets,  selling,  general, and administrative expenses increased 1.4% in the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. These expenses
remained fairly  constant at $6.8 million for both quarters.  As a percentage of
net sales  however,  March 31, 2000  expenses were 6.9% compared to 6.3% for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1999.

         Impairment Charges. As discussed in Note 5 of the financial statements,
the Company recognized an impairment charge of $6.9 million in the first quarter
of 2000.

                                       9




         Operating Income (Loss). The Company  experienced a quarterly operating
loss of $7.2 million  compared to operating  income in the first quarter of 1999
of $4.0 million.  The operating loss in the first quarter of 2000 was due to the
factors described above.

         Interest  Expense,  Net.  Interest  expense,  net of  interest  income,
decreased  14.4% from  $366,000 in the first  quarter of 1999 to $314,000 in the
same period in 2000. This decrease is attributable to more funds invested in the
first  quarter  2000 as well as lower  long-term  debt levels due to normal debt
service requirements.

         Net Income  (Loss).  The Company  experienced a net loss after interest
and taxes in the first quarter of 2000 of $4.6 million compared to net income of
$2.2 million in the period ended March 31, 1999.  This decrease is due primarily
to the factors described above.


BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2000

Laminating Segment Discussion

         Net sales  decreased in the first quarter of 2001 by $13.3 million,  or
29.3%, from $45.4 million in the period ended March 31, 2000 to $32.1 million in
the  period  ended  March 31,  2001.  This  decline  in sales  volume was due to
approximately 42% less shipments nationwide in the Manufactured Housing industry
as well as  declines  of up to 44% in some  of the  Company's  principal  market
areas.

         EBIT  declined  179.0% in the  laminating  segment  from income of $0.5
million in the period ended March 31, 2000 compared to a loss of $0.4 million in
the period ended March 31, 2001.  As a percentage of net sales,  EBIT  decreased
2.3% from  positive 1.1% in the first quarter 2000 to negative 1.2% in the first
quarter 2001. This decline is due to the decrease in sales volume.

Distribution Segment Discussion

         Net sales decreased $38.3%, or $13.7 million, from $35.9 million in the
first quarter 2000 to $22.2 million in the first quarter 2001.  This decrease is
due primarily to the decline in units  shipped and produced in the  Manufactured
Housing industry.

         EBIT decreased  108.3%,  or $430,000,  due to the decrease in sales and
competitive pricing situations.

Wood Segment Discussion

         Net sales decreased  22.4%,  or $2.2 million,  from $9.9 million in the
period  ended March 31, 2000 to $7.7 million in the period ended March 31, 2001.
This decline is consistent with the overall decline in the Recreational  Vehicle
industry, which is the primary industry to which this segment serves.

         EBIT for this segment has increased  $537,000 from an operating loss of
$663,000 in period ended March 31, 2000 to an operating  loss of $125,000 in the
same period in 2001.  Management's  continued  commitment to improving operating
results in this segment and returning it to profitability caused the improvement
of two of the segment's  major  operating  units.  The decrease in the operating
loss is partially due to reduced  depreciation  of  approximately  $250,000 as a
result of the  Company  recognizing  a non-cash  accounting  charge in the first
quarter of 2000  related to the  impairment  of certain  long-lived  assets,  as
discussed in Note 5.

Other Segment Discussion

         Net sales in the other  segment  decreased by 32.2%,  or $5.1  million,
from $15.7  million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $10.6 million in
the three month  period  ending  March 31,  2001.  This  decrease  is  primarily
attributable to a 24% decline in shipments in the Recreational  Vehicle industry
as well as a 29% reduction in sales in the Company's aluminum extrusion division
which sells to areas mainly outside the  Manufactured  Housing and  Recreational
Vehicle industries.

         EBIT  decreased  from an operating  loss of $52,000 in the period ended
March 31, 2000 to an operating loss of $852,000 in the same period in 2001. This
is the result of a 32.2% decrease in sales volume as well as competitive pricing
situations which

                                       10




negatively affected margins in this segment.


Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1999

Laminating Segment Discussion

         Net sales  decreased in the first quarter of 2000 by $1.3  million,  or
2.8%,  from $46.7 million in the period ended March 31, 1999 to $45.4 million in
the  period  ended  March 31,  2000.  This  decline  in sales  volume was due to
approximately 21% less shipments nationwide in the Manufactured Housing industry
and declines over 30% in some of the Company's market areas.

         EBIT declined 78.6% in the laminating  segment from $2.3 million in the
period  ended March 31, 1999  compared to $0.5 million in the period ended March
31, 2000. As a percentage  of net sales,  EBIT  decreased  3.9% from 5.0% in the
first quarter 1999 to 1.1% in the first  quarter  2000.  The ability to increase
selling  prices in the first quarter of 1999 became more difficult in the second
half of that  year and in the  first  quarter  of 2000 the  Company  had to make
concessions  in pricing to  maintain  business as a result of the decline in the
overall industry.

Distribution Segment Discussion

         Net sales decreased  12.9%, or $5.3 million,  from $41.2 million in the
first quarter 1999 to $35.9 million in the first quarter 2000.  This decrease is
due to the decline in units  shipped in the  Manufactured  Housing  industry for
which this segment serves.

         EBIT  decreased  67.8%,  or $673,000,  due to the decrease in sales and
competitive pricing situations.

Wood Segment Discussion

         Net sales  decreased  8.9%, or $1.0 million,  from $10.9 million in the
period  ended March 31, 1999 to $9.9 million in the period ended March 31, 2000.
This  decline  is due to the  overall  decline in the  industry  as well as some
operating divisions choosing not to accept lower margin business.

         EBIT in 2000 of $663,000 is less than the loss experienced in the first
quarter of 1999 of $781,000 by $118,000, or 15.2%.

Other Segment Discussion

         Net sales in the Other  segment  increased by 1.9%,  or $284,000,  from
$15.4  million in the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $15.7  million in the
three  month  period   ending  March  31,  2000.   This  increase  is  primarily
attributable to increased  sales in the Company's  aluminum  extrusion  division
which sells to areas mainly outside the Manufactured Housing industry.

         The Other segment  experienced  an EBIT loss for the first quarter 2000
of $52,000,  compared to operating income in the first quarter 1999 of $598,000.
This decrease in operating income was due to one division,  which was profitable
in 1999,  becoming  unprofitable in 2000 and another division continuing to lose
market share due to operational inefficiencies.

                                       11




LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

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

         The Company,  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 that began in 1996 and
seven annual principal  repayments of $2,571,060 that began in September,  1999.
These  funds  were used to reduce  existing  bank debt and for  working  capital
needs.

         The Company has an  unsecured  bank  Revolving  Credit  Agreement  that
provides loan availability of $10,000,000 with maturity in the year 2003.

         Pursuant to the private placement and the Credit Agreement, the Company
is required to maintain  certain  financial  ratios,  all of which are currently
complied  with,  except  one which  has been  waived.  The  Company  intends  to
negotiate  an  amendment to the Credit  Agreement  so future  compliance  can be
maintained. Although there are no assurances that the agreement will be amended,
the Company, at this time, does not foresee any problems.

         The Company's  Board of Directors  from time to time has authorized the
repurchase  of shares  of the  Company's  common  stock,  in the open  market or
through negotiated transactions,  at such times and at such prices as management
may decide.

         The Company believes that cash generated from operations and borrowings
under its credit  agreements  will be  sufficient  to fund its  working  capital
requirements,  normal  recurring  capital  expenditures,  and the  common  stock
repurchase program as currently contemplated.  The fluctuations in inventory and
accounts receivable balances, which affect the Company's cash flows, are part of
normal business cycles.


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 moderate.  Accordingly,  the Company's  sales
and profits are generally highest in the second and third quarters.


INFLATION

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


SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

         Statements   that   do   not   address   historical   performance   are
"forward-looking  statements"  within  the  meaning  of the  Private  Securities
Litigation  reform  Act of 1995  and  are  based  on a  number  of  assumptions,
including but not limited to; (1) continued  domestic economic growth and demand
for the Company's  products;  and (2) the  Company's  belief with respect to its
capital expenditures,  seasonality and inflation. Any developments significantly
deviating from these assumptions could cause actual results to differ materially
from those forecast or implied in the aforementioned forward-looking statements.
