                          COMMONWEALTH INDUSTRIES, INC.
              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in
accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and consequently do not include
all the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting
principles. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with Commonwealth Industries, Inc.'s (the "Company's") customary
accounting practices and have not been audited. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments necessary to fairly present the results of operations for the
reporting interim periods have been made and were of a normal recurring nature.

2. Inventories
The Company uses the last-in, first-out (LIFO), first-in, first-out (FIFO) and
average-cost accounting methods for valuing its inventories.

Inventories of approximately $116.6 million and $116.5 million, included in the
above totals (before the LIFO reserve) at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000,

remainder of the inventories are accounted for under the FIFO and average-cost
methods.

3. Provision for Income Taxes
The Company recognized an income tax expense of $0.2 million and $0.4 million
for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively, compared
to an income tax expense of $1.5 million and $2.0 million for the three months

Options to purchase 310,000 and 317,500 common shares, which equate to 30,431
and 42,286 incremental common equivalent shares, respectively, were excluded
from the diluted calculation above for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2001 as their effect would have been antidilutive. In addition, options
to purchase 799,500 common shares for both the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2001 and 957,500 and 952,500 for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2000, respectively, were excluded from the diluted calculations above
because the exercise prices on the options were greater than the average market
price for the periods.



5.  Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities", including Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138,
"Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities -
an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" ("SFAS No. 133"). The Statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative
instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts) be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability
measured at its fair value. The Statement requires that changes in the
derivative's fair value be recognized currently in net income unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges
allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged
item in the income statement, and requires that a company must formally
document, designate and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive
hedge accounting. The Company recorded a cumulative-effect-type deferred net
gain transition adjustment of $6.6 million in accumulated other comprehensive
income to recognize at fair value all derivatives that are designated as
cash-flow hedging instruments upon adoption of SFAS No. 133 on January 1, 2001.
The Company expects to reclassify this deferred net gain from other
comprehensive income into net income as cost of goods sold before December 31,
2001.

The Company enters into futures contracts and options to manage exposures to
price risk related to aluminum and natural gas purchases. The Company has
designated the futures contracts as cash flow hedges of anticipated aluminum raw
material and natural gas requirements.

Gains, losses and premiums on these instruments that are recorded in other
comprehensive income will be reclassified into net income as cost of goods sold
in the periods when the related inventory is sold or gas used. As of June 30,
2001, approximately $8.2 million of the $10.3 million of deferred net losses
are expected to be reclassified from other comprehensive income into net income
as cost of goods sold over the next twelve months. A net gain of $0.4 million
and a net loss of $0.03 million was recognized in cost of goods sold during the
three months and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively, representing the
amount of the hedges' ineffectiveness. As of June 30, 2001, the Company held
open aluminum and natural gas futures contracts and options having maturity
dates extending through December 2003.

In order to hedge a portion of its interest rate risk, the Company is party to
an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $5 million under which
the Company pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a LIBOR-based floating
rate. The Company's interest rate swap agreement at June 30, 2001 did not
qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS 133 and as such the change in the fair
value of the interest rate swap agreement is recognized currently as interest
expense, net in the Company's consolidated income statement. The amount of such
change in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreement was immaterial for
the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001.


6.  Information Concerning Business Segments
The Company has determined it has two reportable segments: aluminum and
electrical products. The aluminum segment manufactures aluminum sheet for
distributors and the transportation, construction, and consumer durables end-use
markets. The electrical products segment manufactures flexible electrical wiring
products for the commercial and do-it-yourself markets.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those
described in Note 1, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies" in the Company's annual report to stockholders for the year
ended December 31, 2000. All intersegment sales prices are market based. The
Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based upon operating
income.

The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer
different products to different customer groups. They are managed separately
because each business requires different technology and marketing strategies.

Summarized financial information concerning the Company's reportable segments is
shown in the following table for the three months and six months ended June 30,
2001 and 2000. The "Other" column includes corporate related items, including
elimination of intersegment transactions, and as it relates to segment operating
income, income and expense not allocated to reportable segments.

7. Guarantor Financial Statements
The $125 million of 10.75% senior subordinated notes due 2006 issued by the
Company, and the $100 million revolving credit facility are guaranteed by the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively the "Subsidiary Guarantors"),
other than Commonwealth Financing Corp. ("CFC"), a Securitization Subsidiary (as
defined in the Indenture with respect to such debt) and certain subsidiaries of
the Company without substantial assets or operations. Such guarantees are full,
unconditional and joint and several. Separate financial statements of the
Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented because management has determined that
they would not be material to investors. The following supplemental financial
information sets forth on a condensed combined basis for the Parent Company
Only, Subsidiary Guarantors, Non-guarantor Subsidiaries and for the Company,

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

The following discussion contains statements which are forward-looking rather
than historical fact. These forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended and involve risks and
uncertainties that could render them materially different, including, but not
limited to, the effect of global economic conditions, the impact of competitive
products and pricing, product development and commercialization, availability
and cost of critical raw materials, the rate of technological change, product
demand and market acceptance risks, capacity and supply constraints or
difficulties, the success of the Company in implementing its business strategy,
and other risks as detailed in the Company's various Securities and Exchange
Commission filings.

Overview
The Company manufactures non-heat treat coiled aluminum sheet for distributors
and the transportation, construction and consumer durables end use markets and
electrical flexible conduit and prewired armored cable for the commercial
construction and renovation markets. The Company's principal raw materials are
aluminum scrap, primary aluminum, copper and steel. Trends in the demand for
aluminum sheet products in the United States and in the prices of aluminum
primary metal, aluminum scrap and copper commodities affect the business of the
Company. The Company's operating results also are affected by factors specific
to the Company, such as the margins between selling prices for its products and
its cost of raw material ("material margins") and its unit cost of converting
raw material into its products ("conversion cost"). While changes in aluminum
and copper prices can cause the Company's net sales to change significantly from
period to period, net income is more directly impacted by the fluctuation in
material margins.

During the first half of 2001, shipments of the Company's aluminum sheet
products decreased by 28% from the first half of 2000. Demand for the Company's
aluminum sheet products decreased in the first half of 2001 reflecting ongoing
weak business conditions throughout the economy generally and specifically
across the Company's various markets. In addition, material margins which had
trended higher over the past few quarters, also eased somewhat in the second
quarter due to a highly competitive marketplace.

Demand for the Company's electrical products also decreased during the first
half of 2001. Shipments were down 14% compared to the first half of 2000 due to
the weak customer demand. While material margins for the second quarter of 2001
were down slightly from the first quarter of 2001, material margins for the
first six months of 2001 increased versus the margins experienced in the first
half of 2000 due to increased selling prices on armored cable products and a
reduction in material costs per foot. The higher material margins for the six
months of 2001 more than offset the effect of the decline in shipment volume and
higher manufacturing unit costs compared to the first half of 2000 and returned
the Company's electrical products business unit to an operating profit during
the first quarter of 2001 and continuing in the second quarter.

Results of Operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001
and 2000
Net Sales. Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, decreased 23% to $236
million (including $32.1 million from Alflex) from $304 million (including $32.9
million from Alflex) for the same period in 2000. The decrease is due to
continued weak customer demand affecting virtually all of the Company's markets
versus a strong second quarter of 2000. Unit sales volume of aluminum decreased
25% to 198.3 million pounds for the second quarter of 2001 from 264.1 million
pounds for the second quarter of 2000. Alflex unit sales volume was 138.2
million feet for the second quarter of 2001, a decrease of 4% versus 144.6
million feet for the comparable period in 2000. Net sales for the six-month
period ended June 30, 2001, were $466 million (including $62.5 million from
Alflex), a 25% decrease from the $625 million recorded in the first half of 2000
(including $68.5 million from Alflex). As stated previously, the decrease is due
to ongoing weak business conditions throughout the economy generally and
specifically across the Company's various markets. Unit sales volume of aluminum
was 387.6 million pounds for the first half of 2001, a decrease of 28% from the
538.5 million pounds for the first half of 2000. Alflex unit sales volume was
266.6 million feet for the first six months of 2001, a decrease of 14%, versus
309.1 million feet for the comparable period in 2000.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, decreased to
$11.3 million (4.8% of net sales) from $25.7 million (8.5% of net sales) for the
same period in 2000. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was
$22.2 million (4.8% of net sales) versus $48.2 million (7.7% of net sales) for
the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was related entirely to the
aluminum business unit as manufacturing inefficiencies related to lower volume,
severance charges of approximately $2.0 million related to workforce reductions
in the first quarter of 2001 and significantly higher energy costs more than
offset the slight improvement in material margins for the six months of 2001
versus the same period in 2000. Despite the higher energy costs, the Alflex
business unit increased its gross profit for the first six months of 2001 versus
the first half of 2000 due to improved material margins.

Operating Income. The Company had an operating loss of $0.9 million for the
second quarter of 2001 compared with operating income of $10.8 million for the
second quarter of 2000. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, the
Company had an operating loss of $2.9 million, versus operating income of $17.6
million for the first half of 2000. The decreases were related entirely to the
aluminum business unit's gross profit decline as described in the preceding
paragraph as the Alflex business unit had operating income of $1.6 million and
$2.7 million in the second quarter and first half of 2001, respectively,
compared to an operating loss of $0.7 million and $1.6 million in the second
quarter and first six months of 2000. Selling, general and administrative
expenses during the second quarter of 2001 were $11.1 million, compared with
$13.8 million for the same period in 2000 and were $22.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, compared with $28.4 million for the same period in
2000. Contributing to the decrease were reduced incentive compensation expenses,
lower selling expenses, lower professional services and lower overall salary
expense due to workforce reductions. This was partially offset by higher medical
insurance costs.

Net Income. The Company had a net loss of $4.9 million for the quarter ended
June 30, 2001, compared with net income of $4.4 million for the same period in
2000. The Company's net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $11.0
million compared with net income of $5.7 million for the first half of 2000.
Interest expense was $3.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, compared
to $5.3 million for the same period in 2000 and $8.0 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001, compared with $10.6 million for the first half of 2000.
These decreases were primarily due to a reduction in amounts outstanding under
the Company's accounts receivable securitization facility. Income tax expense
was $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2001 compared to income tax expense of
$1.5 million for the same period in 2000 and an income tax expense of $0.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, compared to income tax expense
of $2.0 million for the same period in 2000.

The Company's sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, the Company's
accounts receivable securitization facility described below and borrowings under
its $100 million revolving credit facility. The Company believes these sources
will be sufficient to fund its working capital requirements, capital
expenditures, debt service and dividend payments at least through 2001.

During 1997, the Company sold all of its trade accounts receivables to a 100%
owned subsidiary, Commonwealth Financing Corp. ("CFC"). Simultaneously, CFC
entered into a three-year accounts receivable securitization facility with a
financial institution and its affiliate, whereby CFC sells, on a revolving
basis, an undivided interest in certain of its receivables and receives up to
$150.0 million from an unrelated third party purchaser at a cost of funds linked
to commercial paper rates plus a charge for administrative and credit support
services. During 2000, the Company and the financial institution extended the
accounts receivable securitization facility for an additional three-year period
ending in September 2003. At June 30, 2001, the Company had outstanding $32.0
million under the agreement and had $104.0 million of net residual interest in
the securitized receivables which is included in other current assets in the
Company's consolidated financial statements. The fair value of the net residual
interest is measured at the time of the sale and is based on the sale of similar
assets. In the first half of 2001, the Company received gross proceeds of $30.0
million from the sale of receivables and made gross payments of $67.0 million
under the agreement.

The Company's operations used cash flows of $8.6 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 compared to using $1.0 million in the six months ended June
30, 2000. Working capital decreased to $131.4 million at June 30, 2001 from
$140.5 million at June 30, 2000.

Capital expenditures were $1.3 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2001
and $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. At June 30, 2001, the
Company had commitments of $0.9 million for the purchase or construction of
capital assets. Total capital expenditures for the year 2001 are expected to be
approximately $11 million, all generally related to maintaining, upgrading and
expanding the Company's manufacturing and other facilities and meeting
environmental requirements.

Risk Management

The price of aluminum is subject to fluctuations due to unpredictable factors on
the worldwide market. To reduce this market risk, the Company follows a policy
of hedging its anticipated raw material purchases based on firm-priced sales and
purchase orders by purchasing and selling futures contracts and options on the
London Metal Exchange ("LME"). At June 30, 2001, the Company held purchase and
sales commitments through September 2002 totaling $49 million and $195 million,
respectively. The Company also uses futures contracts and options to reduce its
risks associated with its natural gas requirements.

As described in note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133") effective
January 1, 2001 and has designated its aluminum and natural gas futures
contracts as cash flow hedges.

Before entering into futures contracts and options, the Company reviews the
credit rating of the counterparty and assesses any possible credit risk. While
the Company is exposed to certain losses in the event of non-performance by the
counterparties to these agreements, the Company does not anticipate
non-performance by such counterparties.

In order to hedge a portion of its interest rate risk, the Company is party to
an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $5 million under which
the Company pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a LIBOR-based floating
rate. The Company's interest rate swap agreement at June 30, 2001 did not
qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS 133 and as such the change in the fair
value of the interest rate swap agreement is recognized currently as interest
expense, net in the Company's consolidated income statement. The amount of such
change in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreement was immaterial for
the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities" ("SFAS No. 140"). The
Statement is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
extinguishment of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. SFAS No. 140 also
includes provisions that require additional disclosures in the financial
statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. Additional
disclosures were included in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements
included in the Company's annual report to stockholders. This adoption of this
Statement did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations
or financial position.

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No.
141"). The Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for business
combinations and supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16,
"Business Combinations", and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 38,
"Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises". All
business combinations in the scope of SFAS No. 141 are to be accounted for using
one method - the purchase method. SFAS No. 141 is effective to all business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.

Also in July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
("SFAS No. 142"). The Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for
acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supercedes Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets". The Statement addresses
how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other
assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted
for in financial statements upon their acquisition. This Statement also
addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after
they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. The Company
currently expects to adopt SFAS No. 142 in the Company's first quarter 2002
reporting, as required. Management is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS
No. 142 on the Company's future financial reporting.

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

The Company is a party to non-environmental legal proceedings and administrative
actions all of which are of an ordinary routine nature incidental to the
operations of the Company. Although it is impossible to predict the outcome of
any legal proceeding, in the opinion of management such proceedings and actions
should not, individually or in aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, although
resolution in any year or quarter could be material to the results of operation
for that period.
