DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements and
assumptions concerning our financial condition, results of operations and
business as a result of the proposed acquisition of the net assets of MetalTech,
NexTech and GalvTech (collectively, the "Techs"). These forward-looking
statements are included under the heading "Unaudited Pro Forma Financial
Information." These statements and assumptions include, among others, those
relating to financial condition and operating results of the combined company
following the proposed acquisition, financing and other costs related to the
acquisition, cost savings expected to result from the proposed acquisition,
growth, projected capacity levels of the combined companies and anticipated
capital expenditures.
Although we believe our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in
or suggested by these forward-looking statements and assumptions are reasonable,
we can give no assurance that our plans, intentions or expectations will be
achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from the forward-looking statements and assumptions we make in this Current
Report include, among others, the following factors:
o lower than expected operating results following the proposed
acquisition;
o unexpected costs or difficulties related to the integration of
our business and that of the Techs;
o lower than expected or delayed cost savings from the proposed
acquisition;
o competitive factors and pricing pressures;
o changes in pricing or availability of raw materials,
particularly steel;
o capacity restraints and efficiencies;
o changes in product demand, changes in product mix and market
acceptance of products;
o the need to improve processes and business practices to keep
pace with the economic, competitive and technological
environment;
o changes in general economic conditions and the business
environment in the United States or in the market areas in
which we conduct business;
o legislation or regulatory changes that adversely affect our
business; and
o other risks described from time to time in our filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to summarize the
material provisions of the agreement to acquire the Techs' net assets (the
"Techs Acquisition") and to provide historical financial statements of the Techs
and pro forma financial information regarding the Techs Acquisition. The
information is being provided under this Item following the execution of a
definitive asset purchase agreement for the Techs Acquisition on October 13,
2000. This and other updated information will be provided under Items 2 and 7 of
a Form 8-K required to be filed after the closing of the Techs Acquisition.
Please refer to Note P - Subsequent Event (Unaudited) of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements incorporated by reference into Item 8 -
Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
May 31, 2000, where we discussed the signing of the letter of intent to acquire
the Techs' net assets.
CERTAIN INFORMATION ON THE ACQUISITION FROM
METALTECH, NEXTECH AND GALVTECH
On October 13, 2000, Worthington Techs, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Worthington Industries, Inc., entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the
"Techs Agreement"), to acquire substantially all of the net assets of the Techs
for $260 million in cash, subject to adjustment for changes in working capital.
The purchase price may increase by up to $60 million over the three-year period
beginning January 1, 2001, depending on capacity utilization and the spread
between the market price for galvanized steel and the cost of raw material. A
letter of intent regarding the Techs Acquisition had previously been signed on
July 28, 2000 and the closing is expected to occur on or before November 30,
2000. The Techs Acquisition will be funded by debt.
The Techs are Pennsylvania limited partnerships which collectively
produce and distribute approximately one million tons of hot-dipped galvanized
steel annually. The purchased assets include owned and leased real property,
machinery and equipment, inventory, work in process, accounts receivable,
contracts and intellectual property used by the Techs in the operation of their
hot-dipped galvanized steel production facilities in Pittsburgh, West Homestead
and Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania and the associated goodwill.
Each of the Techs has a different ownership structure, but the five
original investors control all three. They are G. Watts Humphrey, Jr., Edwin H.
Gott, Jr., Wilson J. Farmerie, Thomas Grudovich and Robert W. Riordan.
Additionally, LTVGT, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of The LTV Corporation, has
a 40 percent limited partnership interest in GalvTech.
The Techs Agreement includes customary representations and warranties
for transactions of this type. The obligation of Worthington Techs, L.P. to
consummate the Techs Acquisition is conditioned upon, among other things:
o the receipt of specified third party consents and approvals;
o the execution of specified ancillary agreements, including
consulting and non-competition agreements with the five
original investors in the Techs and confidentiality agreements
with the four managing partners of the Techs;
o no material adverse change in the Techs' business since
December 31, 1999; and
o the completion of satisfactory debt financing.
Further information concerning the Techs is included in the historical
financial statements and pro forma financial information included elsewhere in
this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Partners
MetalTech, NexTech and GalvTech
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of MetalTech, NexTech
and Galvtech (Pennsylvania limited partnerships) as of December 31, 1998 and
1999 and the related combined statements of operations, partnership deficit and
cash flows for the years then ended. These combined financial statements are the
responsibility of the partnerships' management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of MetalTech,
NexTech and GalvTech as of December 31, 1998 and 1999 and the results of their
combined operations and their combined cash flows for the years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
METALTECH, NEXTECH AND GALVTECH
(PENNSYLVANIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS)
DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1999
NOTE A - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
The partnerships own and operate hot-dip steel coil zinc galvanizing
lines, sell finished coated coils primarily into the construction markets, and
grant credit to their customers, located primarily in the midwestern and eastern
United States. The partnerships perform ongoing credit evaluations of their
customers' financial condition and, generally, require no collateral from their
customers.
The combined financial statements include the accounts of MetalTech,
NexTech and GalvTech, which are all related through common ownership. All
material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
combination.
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Unaudited Interim Information:
The interim financial information as of and for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 1999 and 2000 included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
the interim periods. The interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and the notes included in the
financial statements. The results of operations for the interim period presented
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market on the first-in,
first-out method.
Property, Plant and Equipment:
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, which range from five to thirty-five years. Leasehold improvements are
being amortized on a straight-line basis over twenty years.
Other Assets:
Other assets include operating spare parts and loan origination fees.
Amortization of loan origination fees is computed on the straight-line method
over the term of the related loans.
Income Taxes:
Income of the partnerships is taxed directly to their partners.
Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying
combined financial statements.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements:
The differential to be paid or received is accrued as interest rates
change and is recognized over the life of the agreements.

METALTECH, NEXTECH AND GALVTECH
(PENNSYLVANIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS)
DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1999
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Hedging Transactions:
The partnerships use futures, calls and puts for price hedging in their
zinc raw material inventory purchasing programs. The Company does not enter into
financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Gains and losses on
price hedging transactions related to inventory are charged or credited to cost
of sales when the contracts are closed which substantially corresponds with the
timing of the inventory charge to cost of sales. In connection with the
partnerships' hedging activities, the partnerships participate in a combined
$3,000,000 margin line of credit with brokers. At December 31, 1999, the
partnerships' future hedging activities had contracts maturing through June 2000
covering approximately 1,050 metric tons of zinc with a combined contract value
of approximately $1,038,000. They also had call options maturing through March
2000 covering approximately 975 metric tons of zinc with a contract value of
approximately $44,700 and June 2000 covering approximately 750 metric tons of
zinc with a contract value of approximately $39,000. They also sold put options
at a value of $21,750 maturing through June 2000 covering 750 metric tons of
zinc. Had the partnerships settled all of their future, put and call positions
at December 31, 1999, they would have recognized a gain of approximately
$420,000.
Use of Estimates:
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.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The carrying amount for cash, accounts receivable, revolving credit
notes and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term
maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the partnerships' long-term
debt approximates the carrying value due to the variable interest rate feature
of the instruments.
The fair value of the partnerships' interest rate swap agreements is the
estimated amount the partnerships would have to pay or receive to terminate the
agreements as provided by the financial institution who is the counterparty to
the agreements. At December 31, 1999, the fair value of the partnerships'
interest rate swap agreements was approximately $17,000.

NOTE E - REVOLVING CREDIT NOTES (CONTINUED)
Any principal amounts outstanding under the lines bear interest, at the
partnerships' option, either at the bank's base rate plus a base rate margin or
the Euro-Rate plus a Euro-Rate margin. The base rate margin may range from 0% to
.5% and the Euro-Rate margin may range from .375% to 2.0% depending upon the
ratio of total indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization (EBITDA). The partnerships must also pay quarterly a commitment fee
on the daily unused amount of the lines. The fees may range from .15% to .5%
based upon the ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA.
Borrowings under the lines may not exceed 80% of qualified accounts
receivable and 60% of qualified inventory, both as defined in the Credit
Agreements. However, advances made with respect to inventory cannot exceed an
amount equal to 50% of the borrowing base. Borrowings under the lines are
collateralized by substantially all the partnerships' assets. The line of credit
agreements are with the same bank as the partnerships' term loans discussed in
Note F and are an integral part of the Credit Agreements. Accordingly, they are
subject to substantially identical restrictions as the term loans.

As required under the NexTech Credit Agreement, NexTech has entered into
interest rate swap agreements to limit the effect of increases in the interest
rates on any floating rate debt. The differential is accrued as interest rates
change and is recorded in interest expense. During 1997, the partnership entered
into two swap agreements, expiring on October 30, 2000, with an aggregate
notional amount of $21,000,000 which amortizes until the original maturity date.
The counterparty to the swap agreements has the right to extend the swap on the
original maturity date by two years until October 30, 2002. The effect of these
agreements is to limit the interest rate exposure, exclusive of the base rate
margin or the Euro-Rate margin percent, to 6.19% on $8,333,333 of Term Loan A
and to 6.2% on $8,300,000 of Term Loan B. As a result of the swap agreements,
interest expense was increased by approximately $117,400 and $194,949 in 1998
and 1999, respectively.

quarters for all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS 133 will
require the partnerships to record all derivatives as assets or liabilities at
fair value. Changes in derivative fair value will either be reported in
earnings, offset against changes in the fair value of the related hedged assets,
liabilities and firm commitments or, for forecasted transactions, recorded as a
component of other comprehensive income in partnership deficit until the hedged
transactions occur and are recognized in earnings. Management has not yet
quantified the impact which implementation of SFAS 133 may have upon the

NOTE M - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On October 13, 2000, Worthington Techs, L.P., a subsidiary of
Worthington Industries, Inc., signed an agreement to acquire substantially all
of the net assets of MetalTech, NexTech and GalvTech (collectively the "Techs")
for $260 million in cash. The acquisition is expected to close on or before
November 30, 2000. Under the terms of the agreement, the purchase price may
increase by up to $60 million over a three-year period beginning January 1,
2001, depending on capacity utilization and the spread between the market price
for galvanized steel and the cost of raw material. The cash purchase price also
is subject to adjustment based upon certain changes in working capital. The
transaction is contingent upon obtaining financing satisfactory to Worthington
Industries, Inc. and other typical closing conditions.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On October 13, 2000, Worthington Techs, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Worthington Industries, Inc. executed an asset purchase agreement to acquire
substantially all of the net assets of the Techs for $260 million in cash,
subject to adjustment for changes in working capital. The purchase price may
increase by up to $60 million over the three-year period beginning January 1,
2001, depending on capacity utilization and the spread between the market price
for galvanized steel and the cost of raw material. These contingent payments are
not included in the pro forma financial statements.
This section includes the following financial information on a pro
forma basis for Worthington Industries, Inc.:
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet as of August 31, 2000................................19
Statement of Earnings for the Twelve Months Ended May 31, 2000.....21
Statement of Earnings for the Three Months Ended August 31, 2000...22
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet at August
31, 2000 gives effect to the pending purchase by Worthington Techs, L.P. of the
net assets of the Techs as if the transaction occurred at August 31, 2000. The
unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the twelve
months ended May 31, 2000 and for the three months ended August 31, 2000 assume
the transaction occurred on June 1, 1999. Actual closing is expected to occur on
or before November 30, 2000. The pro forma condensed consolidated financial
statements and the related adjustments reflected therein will be updated upon
closing of the transaction.
The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on the
historical consolidated financial statements of Worthington Industries, Inc. and
the historical combined financial statements of the Techs and should be read in
conjunction with such financial statements and accompanying notes. The purchase
method of accounting was used to prepare the unaudited pro forma financial
statements using the purchase price established in the asset purchase agreement
and estimated fair values of the net assets to be acquired. The actual purchase
accounting adjustments to reflect the fair values of the net assets will be
based on management's evaluation, therefore the adjustments that have been used
in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information are
subject to change pending the final allocation of the purchase price.
The pro forma financial information does not purport to be indicative
of the results of operations which would have actually been attained if the
acquisition had occurred on the dates indicated nor the results of operations
which will be reported in the future.

WORTHINGTON INDUSTRIES, INC.
PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF EARNINGS (CONTINUED)
TWELVE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2000 AND THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2000
(In Thousands)
(Unaudited)
(1) Estimated elimination of sales by the Techs to Worthington Industries,
Inc. subsidiaries previously recorded as sales to external customers
and the estimated profit on those sales in inventory.
(2) Estimated adjustment from eliminating the Techs' fixed asset
depreciation recorded on historical cost and recording depreciation of
the estimated fair value over the estimated remaining useful lives
which are as follows:
Years
-----
Buildings, Leasehold and Land Improvements 35
Machinery and Equipment 20
Furniture & Fixtures and Office Equipment 10
Computers and Software 3-5
(3) Estimated payments of salaries, bonuses, and management fees paid to
the five original investors of the Techs that will not continue after
the closing date of the transaction. This pro forma adjustment is made
because of changed circumstances that will exist following the
consummation of the purchase of the Techs' net assets.
(4) Estimated amortization over 3 years of the covenant-not-to-compete and
consulting contracts, which total $1,200.
(5) Estimated amortization of the goodwill using a useful life of 40 years.
(6) Estimated adjustment to reverse interest expense recorded by the Techs
for debt not assumed in the purchase transaction.
(7) Estimated interest expense on additional debt incurred to purchase the
Techs' net assets using an estimated interest rate of 9.5%.
(8) Estimated amortization of deferred financing costs incurred on the
additional debt using an estimated life of 10 years (the estimated
period of the borrowing).
(9) Estimated additional tax expense on the pro forma consolidated earnings
before income taxes using an effective tax rate of 37.5% for the twelve
months ended May 31, 2000 and 36.5% for the three months ended August
31, 2000. Income of the Techs is taxed directly to their partners.
Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the
historical financial statements of the Techs. After the acquisition,
the Techs income will be taxable to Worthington Industries, Inc. and
reflected as additional tax provision in the consolidated financial
statements.
(10) The purchase agreement includes contingent payments ("earnouts") of $60
million that could be earned over a three-year period beginning January
1, 2001. These amounts, if paid, will be recorded as additional
purchase price and amortized over the remaining useful life of the
goodwill booked at the purchase date. Additional amortization expense
for these earnouts could decrease net income by approximately
$1,000 per year.
