NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollar Amounts in Thousands)
Note 1: Footnote disclosure which would substantially duplicate the
disclosure contained in the Annual Report to Shareholders for the
year ended December 31, 1996 has not been included. The unaudited
interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to a fair
statement of the results for the periods presented and to present
fairly the consolidated financial position of Huffy Corporation as of
September 30, 1997. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature.
Note 2: Inventories of Huffy Bicycle Company and Huffy Sports Company are
valued using the dollar value LIFO method and, as a result, it is
impractical to separate inventory values between raw materials,
work-in-process and finished products on an interim basis.
Note 3: On April 21, 1997, Huffy Corporation sold the assets of its
Denver-based juvenile products business, Gerry Baby Products Company,
for $73 million to Evenflo Company, Inc. The results for Gerry Baby
Products Company have been classified as discontinued operations for
all periods presented in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow. The assets and liabilities of
discontinued operations at December 31, 1996 have been classified in
the Consolidated Balance Sheets as "Net assets of discontinued
operations."
Summarized balance sheet data for discontinued operations is as
follows:
(Dollar Amounts in Thousands) December 31,

Current assets $34,301
Property, plant & equipment, net 10,869

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
-----------------------------------------------------------
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
-------------------------
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
COMPARED TO THE
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
(Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
NET EARNINGS (LOSS)
- -------------------
Huffy Corporation ("Huffy" or "Company") had net earnings from continuing
operations of $997, or $0.08 per common share for the quarter ended September
30, 1997, compared to $205, or $0.02 per common share for the same period last
year. The improvement in net earnings is primarily due to increased volume. The
third quarter 1997 results were not impacted by the Company's juvenile products
business which was sold to Evenflo Company, Inc. in April, 1997. In the third
quarter of 1996, the juvenile products business reported net sales of $30,741
and a net loss of $463, or $0.04 per common share.
Net earnings from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 were $10,171, or $0.78 per common share compared to $6,727, or $0.50 per
common share for the same period last year. Improved volume and administrative
cost controls led to increased profitability in both segments. The net earnings
from continuing operations exclude operating results and gain from the sale of
the juvenile products business. The juvenile products business had net sales of
$37,180 and a net loss of $813, or $0.06 per common share compared to net sales
of $98,443 and net earnings of $533, or $0.04 per common share for the first
nine months of 1996. The gain on the sale of the juvenile products business was
$559, or $0.04 per common share.
NET SALES
- ---------
Net sales from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 1997
were $149,996, up from $120,822 for the same quarter in 1996. Net sales for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 were $535,024, a 22% increase from net
sales of $439,208 for the same period last year. During the third quarter and
for the nine months, net sales in the Consumer Products segment increased due to
strong demand and market share gains for bicycles and basketball backboard
systems, combined with increased market penetration and new customer
distribution in the
Page 6 of 10
7
wheelbarrow portion of the lawn and garden business. In the Services for Retail
segment, net sales increased primarily due to increased market penetration in
the inventory service and product assembly and supplier services business.
GROSS PROFIT
- ------------
Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 was $23,465, up from the
$19,658 achieved in the third quarter of 1996. Expressed as a percentage of net
sales, gross profit for the third quarter of 1997 was 15.6% compared to 16.3%
for the third quarter of 1996. The increase in gross profit dollars in the
Consumer Products segment and the Services for Retail segment was due to
significant sales increases. The gross profit as a percentage of sales was
negatively impacted in the Consumer Products segment by an increased mix of
promotionally priced products. In the Services for Retail segment, gross profit
as a percentage of sales rose slightly due to increased volume of the in-store
assembly and supplier services businesses.
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $88,344, or 16.5%
of net sales, versus $79,020, or 18.0% of net sales for the same period in 1996.
Volume increases in both the Consumer Products and Services for Retail segments
contributed to the increased gross profit dollars in the first nine months of
1997. This increase was primarily volume driven in both segments. Gross profit
expressed as a percent of net sales declined versus the prior year in the
Consumer Products segment due to continued intense competition and customer
demand for a less favorable mix of products, while the Services for Retail
segment was unfavorably impacted by a shift in the mix of product services
provided.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
- --------------------------------------------
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $22,002 for the third quarter
of 1997, compared to $18,338 for the same period in 1996. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, selling, general and administrative expenses were
$68,422 versus $63,902 for the same period in 1996. The increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses for the quarter and nine months is primarily
due to volume related commissions and customer service costs.
SALE OF JUVENILE PRODUCTS BUSINESS
- ----------------------------------
On April 21, 1997, the Company sold the assets of its juvenile products
business, Gerry Baby Products Company to Evenflo Company, Inc., for $73 million.
Page 7 of

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
There have been no other significant changes in the Company's liquidity and
capital resources as of September 30, 1997 from those discussed in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. The Company's
balance sheet reflects fluctuations in both current assets and current
liabilities attributable to seasonal changes in the operations of its
businesses.
INTEREST EXPENSE
- ----------------
Interest expense for the third quarter of 1997 was $1,251 or $326 lower than
interest expense for the same quarter of 1996. Interest expense for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 was $4,367 versus $5,344 for the same period of
1996. The decrease in interest expense is the result of the scheduled reductions
in long-term debt, and reduced levels of short-term borrowings made possible by
the Gerry Baby Products Company sale.
ENVIRONMENTAL
- -------------
As disclosed in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended
December 31, 1996, the Company, along with others, has been designated as a
potentially responsible party (PRP) by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(the "EPA") with respect to claims involving the discharge of hazardous
substances into the environment in the Baldwin Park operable unit of the San
Gabriel Valley Superfund site ("Superfund"). Currently, the Company, along with
other PRPs, the San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority and numerous local
water districts are working with the EPA on a mutually satisfactory remedial
plan. In developing its estimate of environmental remediation costs, the Company
considers, among other things, currently available technological solutions,
alternative cleanup methods and risk-based assessments of the contamination and,
as applicable, an estimation of its proportionate share of remediation costs.
The Company may also make use of external consultants, and consider, when
available, estimates by other PRPs and governmental agencies and information
regarding the financial viability of other PRPs. On May 15, 1997, the Company,
along with other PRPs, received special notice letters from the EPA requesting a
good faith offer of remediation for the Superfund. Such response is currently
due on February 15, 1998. Based upon information currently available, the
Company believes it is unlikely that it will incur substantial previously
unanticipated costs as a result of failure by other PRPs to satisfy their
responsibilities for remediation costs.
