                           Sun Coast Industries, Inc.
        Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements


     The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and
statements of income give effect to the sale of the net assets of the Specialty
Resins and Compounds Division of Plastics Manufacturing Company, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Sun Coast Industries, Inc. to Borden Chemical, Inc. as if the 
sale had been completed with all proceeds received at July 1, 1996 for the
condensed consolidated statements of income.

     The pro forma data does not purport to be indicative of the results which
would actually have been reported if the transaction had occurred on such dates
or which may be reported in the future. The pro forma data should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company and the
related notes to such financial statements. To comply with 8-K pro forma
financial statement requirements, the historical income statements exclude
discontinued operations (the Company recently disposed of portions of its
Consumer Products and Foodservice Tableware Divisions).

     The primary earnings per common share from continuing operations is based
on 4.2 million and 4.0 million weighted average shares of common stock
outstanding for the three months and the year ended September 30, 1997 and 
June 30, 1997, respectively.
