PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Durakon Industries, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Michigan on
December 21, 1983, and is the successor by merger to Durakon, Inc. which was
incorporated in Michigan in 1979. The Company operates its business in two
segments, the pickup truck bedliners and accessories segment (pickup truck
accessories segment) and the vehicle transportation and towing segment (vehicle
transportation segment).
Pickup Truck Accessories Segment. This segment's principal product is a
one-piece, seamless pickup truck bedliner, custom engineered and molded in
various sizes to fit most domestic and foreign pickup trucks. A matching
protector is supplied with each bedliner to protect the truck's tailgate.
Bedliners are constructed of high density polyethylene plastic, and are
designed to protect the entire bed area including the floor, front panel and
sidewalls. The Company markets bedliners under the Duraliner(R), AllStar(R)
and Bodygard(TM) brand names and, to a lesser extent, manufactures for private
labels. Purchasers of the Duraliner(R) product also receive proprietary cargo
restraining board pockets (Duraloc(R)), two tier stacking capability and other
premium features.
The Company's marketing strategy for pickup truck bedliners is to service
the aftermarket through distributors of light truck accessories, light truck
dealers, camper top manufacturers, retail chains and mass merchandisers as well
as directly servicing original equipment manufacturers. Management believes
that purchasers of light trucks generally prefer to purchase add-on
accessories, such as a pickup truck bedliner, at the time they purchase their
truck. This allows installation of the bedliner prior to delivery, before
damage to the truck occurs, and also permits the buyer to finance the bedliner
in conjunction with the truck.
The Company also distributes through its Duraliner U.S.A. network, which
consists of 10 warehouses located throughout the country. Those warehouses
sell the Company's bedliners, as well as, Big Mat(R) bed floormats,
Duratrunk(R) storage containers, bumpers, running boards, bug shields, and a
variety of other pickup truck accessories, all of which are manufactured by
other companies. Big Mat(R) mats, which are constructed of rubber and
reinforced nylon, are designed to protect the floor area of pickup truck beds.
The Duratrunk(R) is a high-density polyethylene plastic storage container with
proprietary design improvements over conventional tool/storage boxes.
Vehicle Transportation Segment. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary
Jerr-Dan Corporation ("Jerr-Dan"), the Company manufactures and distributes
rollback car carriers and tow trucks for use in the vehicle transportation,
towing and recovery industry.
Rollback car carriers are fabricated from aluminum, steel and wood to
provide platforms which hydraulically tilt to allow a vehicle to be loaded onto
the platform for transportation. Carriers equipped with a towbar attachment
can tow an additional vehicle behind the unit. Some models are also available
with an optional deck above the driver's cab to allow for an additional vehicle
to be transported. The Wrangler(TM), Shark(TM), Viper(TM) and Rustler(TM)
models are designed for transporting automobiles and light-duty vehicles, while
the Transporter(TM) and Super Series(TM) models, with deck capacities up to
30,000 pounds, can also transport heavy equipment. Jerr-Dan offers the
auxiliary axle system as an option on its Wrangler(TM), Viper(TM), and
Rustler(TM) models to increase payload capacities by up to 5,000 pounds.
Rollback carriers are typically purchased by salvage dealers, towing
companies, automobile dealers, industrial equipment distributors, and antique
and race car owners.
2

Jerr-Dan also manufactures and markets towing and recovery equipment.
These products lift disabled vehicles by the wheels for general towing
applications. Wheel lift tow trucks have supplanted the conventional hook and
sling equipment by providing towing which is normally damage-free to vehicles
with plastic front-end components and/or front-wheel drive. Heavy-duty towing
units, as supplied by Jerr-Dan's DeWalt Division, are equipped with frame-fork
attachments to enable a disabled vehicle to be pickup up by the front axle.
Towing units are customarily supplied with boom and winch features for use in
vehicle recovery applications. Jerr-Dan's towing and recovery product line
includes the HPL(TM), Power Grid(TM), and DeWalt(TM) models.
Jerr-Dan's marketing strategy is to compete nationally through its
independently-owned distributor network with innovative products of high
quality and superior customer service. Methods used to accomplish this
objective include advertising in trade journals, trade show participation,
publication of the Company's "Write-Carrier" magazine and utilization of the
distributor/customer in product development activities.
Jerr-Dan's manufacturing operations include the machining and fabrication
of steel and aluminum parts and assemblies, and the manufacture of hydraulic
componentry used in its products. Jerr-Dan's products are assembled, tested
and installed on truck chassis purchased by Jerr-Dan or its customers, or sold
as kits for installation by its distributors.
OTHER CORPORATE MATTERS
Employment. At December 31, 1995, the Company and its subsidiaries
employed 880 persons. Approximately 24% of its employees are covered by a
collective bargaining agreement with the International Union, United
Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America. The most
recent agreement was ratified by the union on March 1, 1994, expires February
28, 1997, and covers 208 employees at the Lapeer, Michigan plant.
Significant Customers. No one customer accounts for more than 10% of
consolidated net sales and no material part of the Company's business is
dependent upon a single customer or a few customers.
Competition. In the opinion of management, the competitive factors in
each industry in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate include brand
recognition, total quality, marketing support, price, customer service, prompt
delivery and reputation. The Company emphasizes all of these factors in its
operating strategy.
The pickup truck accessories segment markets its products worldwide to
original equipment manufacturers and to independent aftermarket distributors.
The Company's primary competitor in all of these markets is Penda Corporation,
a privately owned company headquartered in Portage, Wisconsin. While no market
data is readily available, the Company believes it has the largest share of the
market for pickup truck bedliners but believes that Penda is the largest
supplier to original equipment manufacturers. There are many other
manufacturers of pickup truck bedliners but the Company believes that none of
them maintains a marketshare comparable to the Company or Penda.
In the vehicle transportation segment, the Company primarily sells in
North America. While the Company is not aware of any source of market data on
this industry, it believes that Miller Industries, Inc., a publicly held
company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia has the largest marketshare.
Chevron, Inc., a privately held company headquartered in Mercer, Pennsylvania
and Vulcan Equipment Company, Inc., a privately held company headquartered in
Olive Grove, Mississippi are
3
4
also major competitors of the Company. The Company believes it maintains the
second largest marketshare in the vehicle towing and recovery industry.
Patents. The Company has a policy of filing patent applications for its
important product designs and manufacturing methods. The patents the Company
considers most valuable expire after 1999.
Backlogs. Neither the pickup truck accessories segment nor the vehicle
transportation segment maintain a sales backlog as sales orders are generally
filled within one month.
Raw Materials. Raw materials used in the production of the Company's
products are available from several sources. Management believes that its
present sources and adequate replacement sources will be available to meet the
Company's anticipated demand for the foreseeable future. Hydrocarbon based
resin, which is the principal raw material of the pickup truck accessories
segment, is subject to significant price fluctuation. The impact of resin
pricing on the Company's results is discussed in Item 7., Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Regulatory Requirements. The Company, as a manufacturer utilizing
hydrocarbon substances, is subject to provisions of state and federal laws
governing discharges of pollutants into the environment and the exposure of
employees to harmful substances. The Company believes that it is currently in
compliance with such applicable provisions and that continued compliance will
not require material capital expenditures.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES ($ in 000's)
Pickup Truck Accessories Segment. The Company has two manufacturing
locations for pickup truck bedliners. The largest one is owned, the other
facility is leased. The owned facility is a 257,000 square foot building
complex on 135 acres of land in Lapeer, Michigan. This facility also houses
the Company's warehouse facility, distribution center and administrative
offices. The leased facility is 102,000 square feet on 7 acres of land in
Clinton, Tennessee. The lease expires in 2003; rental under this lease was
approximately $262 in 1995. The Company also leases two facilities in
Richardson, Texas. One facility is 12,000 square feet and is for the
manufacturing of wheelcovers. The second facility is 9,000 square feet and is
for warehousing and light assembly of wheelcovers.
The Company's Mexican subsidiary leases a 21,000 square foot manufacturing
facility in Lerma, Mexico. Rental under this lease agreement was $144 during
1995.
The Company has 10 leased locations which operate under the name
"Duraliner U.S.A." that are primarily used as sales centers. These facilities,
located in Santa Fe Springs and Stockton, California; Ft. Lauderdale and
Lakeland, Florida; New Orleans, Louisiana; Springfield, Massachusetts;
Westland, Michigan; Ft. Worth and Houston, Texas; and Charleston, West
Virginia, have approximately 9,000 to 21,000 square feet per location.
Aggregate rentals under these leases were approximately $511 in 1995. The
expiration dates for these leases range from 1996 to 1997.
Vehicle Transportation Segment. The Company owns an 112,000 square foot
manufacturing facility located on 12.5 acres of land in Greencastle,
Pennsylvania. This location also houses storage facilities and administrative
offices.
The Company leases an additional assembly location in Greencastle,
Pennsylvania. This facility has approximately 6,000 square feet. Annual rent
is $18, payable on a month-to-month
4
5
basis. An additional manufacturing location is leased in Channelview, Texas.
The location has 7,000 square feet and the annual rent is $30. The lease
expires June 30, 1998.
Additional warehousing space of 65,000 square feet is leased in Las Vegas,
Nevada to provide inventory availability for Jerr-Dan's western distributors.
The 1995 rent under this agreement was $222 and this lease expires July 31,
2000.
Adequacy of Facilities and Production Capacity. In the opinion of
management, the facilities and manufacturing capacity for both business
segments are adequate to operate at current market conditions.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is involved in certain routine litigation incidental to its
business. The effect of such litigation on the business and financial
condition of the Company is not expected by management to be material.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS
No matters were submitted to a vote of shareholders during the fourth
quarter of the fiscal year covered by this Report.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion relating to the three years ended December 31,
1995 should be read in conjunction with the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements and related Notes:
CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT. ($ in 000's) On December 12, 1995, the Company
decided to dispose of its ZZ Wheelz subsidiary. The operation acquired in 1994
did not fit the long-term focus of the Company. A $2,900 pre-tax charge was
recorded in the fourth quarter to write-off the investment and provide for
anticipated costs to close the facility.

In November 1995, Jerr-Dan introduced the prototype of its new medium-duty
recovery vehicle. This new product, with an innovative composite body, is
intended to provide Jerr-Dan distributors with a complete range of towing and
recovery products for the first time in the Company's history.
Effective July 1, 1995, Jerr-Dan acquired substantially all the assets of
DeWalt Manufacturing, Inc., a manufacturer of heavy-duty towing and recovery
vehicles in Channelview, Texas. Jerr-Dan's DeWalt Division provides a proven
product line in the heavy-duty market segment previously not serviced by the
Company.
Also in July 1995, Jerr-Dan began leasing approximately 65,000 square feet
in Las Vegas, Nevada. This western warehouse has improved service to the
Company's West Coast distributors. The warehouse provides distributors with
inventory in both kit and installed configurations.
In July 1994, the Company acquired Benton Plastics, Inc. ("Benton").
Benton is a manufacturer and distributor of bedliners under the brand name
"Bodygard"(R). The total purchase price was $14,388.
NET SALES. ($ in 000's) The following table summarizes net sales by
business segment for the last three years:
Segment 1995 % 1994 % 1993 %
- ------- ---- - ---- - ---- -
Pickup truck accessories $ 81,684 47% $ 75,163 52% $ 56,399 53%
Vehicle transportation 90,367 53% 69,320 48% 49,339 47%
-------- --- -------- --- -------- ---
Total $172,051 100% $144,483 100% $105,738 100%
======== === ======== === ======== ===
Net sales increased 19% to $172,051 in 1995 versus 1994. In the pickup
truck accessories segment net sales increased $6,521 or 9% from 1994. Bedliner
unit sales increased 16% from the prior year. Durakon Division unit sales were
down 5% in 1995 compared to 1994 partially due to a 5% decline in domestic
pickup truck sales from 1994. International unit sales increased 43%. Average
net selling prices were down 5% from last year at the Durakon Division due
largely to industry competition and increased sales to the Company's
international OE customers. Unit sales from the Benton Division were up 143% as
1995 net sales included a full year of activity versus five months in 1994.
Benton Division selling prices were 6% higher in 1995 due to the addition of new
product features.
In the vehicle transportation segment, 1995 net sales increased $21,047 or
30% from 1994. Equipment sales increased 13% and truck chassis sales (which
carry little mark-up) increased 52% over 1994. Unit sales of rollback car
carriers increased 21%, while the volume of wheel lift products was down 16% due
to the inability for a period of six months in 1995 to sell several models in
the light-duty product line following a patent settlement. A more advanced
light-duty wheel lift product was introduced in the third quarter of 1995 and
unit sales of this new product have exceeded sales of the former product for
comparative periods in 1995 versus 1994. Average net selling prices for both
rollback car carriers and wheel lifts were higher, up 3% and 5%, respectively,
in 1995 compared to 1994.
Net sales increased $38,745 or 37% in 1994 versus 1993. Net sales in the
pickup truck accessories segment increased $18,764 or 33% over 1993. The
increase was due to a 37% gain in unit sales, primarily due to bedliner unit
volume from the Benton Division, which was acquired in July
1994. Unit sales from comparable operations were up in the independent
aftermarket distribution channel and the international channel. Average net
selling prices did not change significantly during 1994 as higher sales prices
in the aftermarket channel offset lower prices to existing and new
international OEM customers. Net sales in the vehicle transportation segment
increased $19,981 or
7
8
40% from 1993. The increase was due to continued increases in market
penetration for both rollback and wheel lift products. A modest price
increase in the vehicle transportation segment was achieved in 1994.
GROSS PROFIT. ($ in 000's) The following table summarizes gross profit in
dollars and as a percent of sales by segment for the last three years:
Segment 1995 % 1994 % 1993 %
- ------- ---- - ---- - ---- -
Pickup truck accessories $ 22,137 27% $ 29,240 39% $ 24,345 43%
Vehicle transportation 14,222 16% 12,707 18% 9,341 19%
-------- --- -------- --- -------- ---
Total $ 36.359 21% $ 41,947 29% $ 33,686 32%
======== === ======== === ======== ===
In 1995, gross margin in the pickup truck accessories segment declined 12
percentage points from 1994. The majority of the decline in gross margin
occurred at the Durakon Division. Selling price decreases coupled with
increased material cost (raw material cost increases and higher material usage
to improve quality), a change to prepaid customer freight in 1995, and spending
to improve manufacturing efficiency and product quality were the reasons for the
decline in gross margin. In 1995, approximately $1,898 of non-recurring costs
to improve manufacturing operations are reflected in gross profit. The impact
of these non-recurring costs is expected to be realized in lower unit production
costs beginning in the first quarter of 1996. At the Benton Division, gross
margin increased one point as selling price increases were largely offset by
cost increases.
In the vehicle transportation segment, gross margin in 1995 was 16%
compared to 18% in 1994. The margin on equipment sales was 27% in 1995, down
2% from the prior year. In 1995, the increased costs of materials and product
enhancements were not completely offset by selling price increases and
reductions realized in fabrication costs.
In 1994, the gross profit percentage for the pickup truck accessories
segment was 39% versus 43% in 1993. The decrease was due to lower margins
associated with sales from the Benton Division acquired in July 1994, and to
increased material costs and operating costs to support the expanded product
line and customer base. The gross profit in the vehicle transportation segment
was down 1% to 18% in 1994 versus 1993 due entirely to an increase in the
proportion of lower margin truck chassis sold in 1994.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. ($ in 000's) The following
table presents selling, general and administrative expenses by business segment
and as a percent of net sales for the last three years:
% Net % Net % Net
Segment 1995 Sales 1994 Sales 1993 Sales
- ------- ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- ----
Pickup truck accessories $18,375 23% $14,905 20% $12,170 22%
Vehicle transportation 9,913 11% 7,555 11% 6,579 13%
------- -- ------- -- ------- --
Total $28,288 16% $22,460 16% $18,749 18%
======= == ======= == ======= ==
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were 26% higher in 1995
compared to 1994, but as a percent of net sales were unchanged.
In the pickup truck accessories segment, 1995 SG&A was $3,470 higher than
in 1994 and as a percentage of net sales was three points higher. The majority
of the increase was attributable to the inclusion of the Benton Division and ZZ
Wheelz for a full year which had SG&A of $3,707 versus five months in 1994 which
had SG&A of $1,568. The remainder of the increase reflects spending to
facilitate a software conversion,
8
9
increased advertising and increased salaries and wages.
In the vehicle transportation segment, 1995 SG&A was $2,358 higher
than the prior year but as a percent of net sales was unchanged. Approximately
$1,103 in one-time charges were related to patent litigation and the
write-off of a license agreement. The balance of the increase
relates to new product development related to the new medium-duty wrecker
products and administrative expenses associated with the new DeWalt Division.
The increase of $3,711 in 1994 versus 1993 was due in part to the addition
of the Company's Benton Division and ZZ Wheelz, which had SG&A of $1,568 in the
last half of 1994. In addition, spending was $835 higher to improve the
infrastructure of the Duraliner USA distribution centers in the pickup truck
accessories segment. In the vehicle transportation segment, selling and
administrative expenses were up $770 due to increased litigation expense, staff
additions to support higher sales volume and patent amortization. As a percent
of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were 2% lower in 1994
versus 1993.
DISPOSITION OF SUBSIDIARY ($ in 000's) In December 1995 the Company
decided to close its ZZ Wheelz operations. The charge of $2,900 to write-off
the investment and provide for anticipated costs to close the operation was
recorded in the fourth quarter of 1995.
INTEREST INCOME/(EXPENSE), NET. ($ in 000's) Net interest income was $358
in 1995, $427 in 1994 and $195 in 1993. The reduction in net interest income
in 1995 versus 1994 reflects higher interest income on larger cash balances
offset by increased interest expense from higher debt. The improvement in 1994
versus 1993 reflects higher average cash balances.
OTHER INCOME/(EXPENSE), NET. ($ in 000's) Other income in 1995 reflects an
expense of $411 versus income of $86 and $2,215 in 1994 and 1993, respectively.
In 1995, other expense relates primarily to transaction and devaluation losses
associated with the Mexican peso. In 1994, other income includes the gain from
the sale of a bond fund, net of Mexican peso transaction and devaluation
losses. Other income in 1993 reflects the gain on the call of a warrant.
MINORITY INTEREST. ($ in 000's) Minority interest reflects the minority
shareholders' portion of the net income of Duramex which began operations in
April 1993. The minority interest was a loss in 1995 of $73 compared to a loss
of $143 in 1994 and income of $72 in 1993.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Company's effective tax rate was 54% in
1995, 39% in 1994 and 31% in 1993. The difference between 1995 effective rate
and the statutory rate of 35% is primarily due to the non-deductible portion of
the loss on disposition of ZZ Wheelz and a provision for state income taxes.
The difference between the 1994 effective rate and the statutory rate of 35%
was primarily due to a provision for state income taxes.
NET INCOME. ($ in 000's) Net income was $2,299 in 1995, $12,101 and
$11,974 in 1994 and 1993, respectively.
The 1995 decrease of $9,802 from 1994 was primarily the result of lower
gross margins in both business segments, non-recurring charges related to the
loss on disposition of the ZZ Wheelz business unit, costs related to
re-engineering the manufacturing operations at the pickup truck bedliner plants,
expenses to consolidate manufacturing operations in the pickup truck accessories
segment and costs associated with a patent settlement in the vehicle
transportation segment.
The 1994 increase of $127 over 1993 was as a result of the increased
sales, lower selling,
9
10
general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales and an increase in
interest income offset by the gain on the warrant call of $2,358 recognized in
1993.
Management does not believe that inflation had a significant impact on the
Company's operations during the last three years.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES ($ in 000's)
At year-end 1995, the Company's cash balance was $12,757, $11,628 at
year-end 1994 and $15,549 at year-end 1993. The current ratio was 2.3 at
December 31, 1995 versus 2.4 in 1994 and 2.9 in 1993. During 1995, cash of
$8,944 was provided by operations versus $12,488 in 1994 and $9,021 in 1993.
Cash used in investing activities in 1995 was $6,636 compared to $14,230 in
1994 and $2,799 in 1993. The main use of cash in 1995 was for the purchase of
equipment. In the pickup truck accessories segment capital spending totaled
$6,079 and in the vehicle transportation segment $684. In 1994, the main uses
of cash were investments in Benton Plastics and ZZ Wheelz. Financing
activities resulted in a net cash use of $1,462 in 1995 and $1,755 in 1994.
The increase in cash in 1995 was $1,129 versus a net cash use of $3,921 in
1994.
The Company's anticipated internal cash flow is expected to provide
sufficient liquidity to fund its near-term working capital needs. The Company
believes that its long-term working capital and other investment needs will be
satisfied through its internal cash flow and future borrowings, if necessary.
The Company also maintains a $20,000 revolving credit facility. There were no
borrowings against this facility as of December 31, 1995. However, letters of
credit have been issued against the credit line totaling $1,700 at December 31,
1995.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Durakon Industries, Inc.:
We have audited the consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule of Durakon Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries listed in the index on
page F-1 of this Form 10-K. These financial statements and financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Durakon
Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. In addition, in our opinion, the financial
statement schedule referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information required to be included therein.

DURAKON INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Durakon
Industries, Inc. and its domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries and foreign
majority-owned subsidiary (the "Company"). All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and equivalents
At December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, substantially all cash was held at
Comerica Bank.
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and equivalents include
cash on hand, amounts due from banks and debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
using the first-in, first-out method for the pickup truck accessories
segment and the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for the vehicle
transportation segment.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided
on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Intangibles
Goodwill is being amortized using the straight-line method over periods not
exceeding 20 years. At each balance sheet date, management assesses whether
there has been an impairment in the carrying value of goodwill, primarily by
comparing current and projected sales, operating income and annual cash
flows with the related annual amortization expense. Purchase costs of
patents are being amortized using the straight-line method over the legal
lives of the patents, not to exceed 17 years.
Retirement plans
The Company has defined contribution retirement plans covering substantially
all employees. The Company's policy is to fund retirement costs accrued.
Income taxes
Income taxes are provided based on the liability method of accounting
pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FASB) No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes". Deferred income taxes are recorded to
reflect the tax liability/benefit on future years of differences between the
tax basis and financial reporting amount of assets and liabilities at each
year-end.
Foreign Currency Translation
The assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operation are translated
into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates, and revenues and expenses are
translated at average exchange rates for the year. Resulting translation
adjustments are reflected as a separate component of shareholders' equity.
Currency transaction gains and losses are reported in income.
F-7
19
Net income per share of common stock
Net income per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding after giving effect for common stock
equivalents arising from stock options.
Segments
The Company operates in two business segments, pickup truck bedliners and
accessories (pickup truck accessories) and vehicle transportation and towing
(vehicle transportation).
Reporting
Certain amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements for prior years
have been reclassified to conform to 1995 presentation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently issued financial accounting standards
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of", will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements
when adopted in 1996. SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,"
becomes effective in 1996. The Company intends to adopt the pro-forma
disclosure provisions of SFAS 123.

2. Acquisitions ($ in 000's)
On July 29, 1994, Benton Plastics, Inc. ("Benton") was acquired for
$14,388. Benton is a manufacturer of bedliners with production
facilities in Maine and Tennessee. In 1995, manufacturing operations
were terminated in Maine.
The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase with the results of
Benton included from the acquisition date. The fair value of assets
acquired, including goodwill, was $16,753 and liabilities assumed totaled
$2,464. Goodwill of $13,273 is being amortized over 20 years on a
straight-line basis.
On June 10, 1994, G.C. Concepts, Inc. doing business as ZZ Wheelz, Inc.,
was acquired for $656 in cash plus other consideration. ZZ Wheelz
manufactures and assembles wheel covers.
The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase with the results of ZZ
Wheelz included from the acquisition date. The fair value of assets
acquired, including goodwill, was $2,751 and liabilities assumed totaled
$1,385. Goodwill of $2,138 was being amortized over 15 years on a
straight-line basis. The disposition of ZZ Wheelz resulted in the
write-off of goodwill during 1995.

the vehicle transportation segment, which represented approximately 55%
of total inventory at December 31, 1995 and 50% at December 31, 1994.
The effect of LIFO adjustments was to reduce net income by $316 or $0.05
per share in 1995. At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Company's LIFO
reserve was $1,276 and $960, respectively.
