                  Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
                        September 30, 1997 and 1996
                                (Unaudited)
                                    
1.  Nature of Organization

    Rawson-Koenig, Inc. (the "Registrant"), a Texas corporation, designs,
manufactures and markets certain equipment for light trucks.  Its chief
products are truck tool boxes, truck service bodies, winches and truck
mounted cranes.

2.  Basis for Preparation of the Condensed Financial Statements

    The condensed financial statements for the three months and nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, have been prepared by the Registrant and
are unaudited.  Certain information and footnote disclosures, including
significant accounting policies, normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have
been condensed or omitted; however, the Registrant believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
All the adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
a fair statement of the results of the interim periods have been included.
These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Registrant's
latest Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K.

3.  Other Assets

    At September 30, 1997, other assets consist of costs related to
obtaining bank loans.  These costs are capitalized and amortized over the
lives of the related loans using the effective interest method.

4.  Accrued Expenses

    During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the liability for potential
claims against the Registrant by its employees arising from injuries
incurred in the normal course of business prior to May 1, 1994, was reduced
from $400,000 to 120,000.  This decrease of $280,000 was recorded as a
reduction to cost of sales in the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  During the
quarter ended June 30, 1997, the remaining liability claims of $120,000
were settled and paid.

5.  Debt Agreement

    On June 18, 1997, the Registrant amended its debt agreement with its
primary lender.  The agreement was amended to provide funding for the
Registrant's tender offer described in Note 8.  The amended agreement
allows the Registrant to borrow up to $4,200,000 under a loan that is
collateralized by the Registrant's real estate (the "Real Estate Loan").
On June 18, 1997, the Registrant's existing Houston real estate loan was
rolled into the Real Estate Loan.  The Real Estate Loan is due in monthly
principal installments of $23,333 plus interest at the bank's prime rate
(8.5% per year at September 30, 1997) with the unpaid balance being due
June 18, 2002.  During the three months ended September 30, 1997, in
addition to paying the scheduled monthly payments on the Real Estate Loan,
the Registrant also made a $750,000 principal payment.  At September 30,
1997, the Real Estate Loan had a balance of approximately $403,000.

    The amended agreement further allows the Registrant to borrow up to
$1,390,000 under a loan that is collateralized by the Registrant's accounts
receivable, inventory and equipment (the "Equipment Loan").  Borrowings
under the Equipment Loan will be due in equal monthly principal
installments based on a seven year amortization plus interest at the bank's
prime rate with the unpaid balance being due June 18, 2002.  At September
30, 1997, the Equipment Loan had a zero balance.

    The amended agreement extends the maturity date of the Registrant's
revolving line of credit to April 30, 1999.  Interest on the revolving line
of credit remains payable monthly at the bank's prime rate and the maximum
amount of credit available under the line remains at $2,200,000.  At
September 30, 1997, the revolving line had a balance of $100,000.

    The amended agreement also amended the terms of the Registrant's
advancing term equipment loan.  The amended agreement allows the Registrant
to borrow up to $1,000,000 to finance equipment purchases through June 18,
1998.  Any borrowings outstanding as of June 18, 1998, will be converted to
a five year term loan that will be due in sixty equal principal
installments beginning in July 1998, plus interest at the bank's prime
rate.  At September 30, 1997, the advancing term equipment loan had a zero
balance.

    On June 18, 1997, the Registrant retired its Fort Worth loan which had
a balance due of approximately $135,000.

6.  Income Taxes

    The provisions for federal and state income taxes for the three months
and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, were computed by
applying the estimated effective annual tax rate to income before income
taxes.

7.  Extraordinary Item - Tender Offer Expenses

    Expenses of the "going private" tender offer described in Note 8 have
been recorded as an extraordinary item.  As of September 30, 1997, the
Registrant had incurred approximately $172,000 of such expenses that
consist mainly of legal, accounting, investment banker, printing and
mailing fees.  These expenses have no tax effect as they are not deductible
for income tax purposes.

8.  Tender Offer

    On June 4, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Registrant approved a
tender offer (the "Offer") by the Registrant to acquire up to 100% of its
issued and outstanding shares of common stock at a price of $2.15 net per
share to sellers in cash.  The Registrant will pay all fees and expenses of
the Offer.  The Rawson family currently owns approximately 60% of the
issued and outstanding shares of the Registrant, which were not tendered
pursuant to the Offer.  The Offer expired on October 31, 1997 and it is
anticipated that shares tendered pursuant to the Offer will be paid in cash
during the week of November 3, 1997.  After the tendering shares have been
acquired, it is anticipated that all remaining shares (except those owned
by the Rawson family) will be converted into the right to receive $2.15 per
share in a merger with a newly formed company that will be wholly owned by
the Rawson family.  After the consummation of the Offer and the merger the
Rawson family will own 100% of the Registrant.

    The Registrant estimates that the total cost of the Offer will
approximate $3,702,000, including expenses of approximately $350,000.

    The following pro forma condensed financial information is based on
estimated costs and assumes that all the Registrant's shares not owned by
the Rawson family will be acquired by the Registrant through the Offer.
The pro forma condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 1997, gives
effect to the Offer as if it had occurred on that date.  The pro forma
condensed statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30,
1997, gives effect to the Offer as if it had occurred on January 1, 1997.

Results of Operations

    Sales increased approximately $695,000 (14.4%) during the three months
ended September 30, 1997, and increased approximately $1,488,000 (9.6%)
during the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared to the same
periods of 1996.  These increases resulted primarily from the Registrant's
intensified marketing efforts in several territories.


                                   -12-

    Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased from 76.0% to 77.4%
for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively, and
decreased from 76.4% to 75.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
and 1997, respectively.  The increase for the three months ended September
30, 1997, was due primarily to increases in material costs.  The decrease
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, was due primarily to a
$280,000 reduction in the accrued liability for potential claims arising
from employee injuries incurred in the normal course of business prior to
May 1, 1994, that was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 1997.
(See Note 4 on page 6.)

    Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 23.1% for the
three months ended September 30, 1997, and increased 19.4% for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, compared to the same periods of 1996.
These increases were due primarily to increases in payroll-related
expenses.

    Interest expense decreased 52.9% for the three months ended September
30, 1997, and decreased 29.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
compared to the same periods of 1996.  These decreases were due primarily
to lower average borrowings during the applicable periods.

    Income taxes decreased 13.3% for the three months ended September 30,
1997, and decreased 18.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
compared to the same periods of 1996.  The decrease for the three months
ended September 30, 1997, was due primarily to the decrease in income.  The
decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, was due primarily to
the effects of the $280,000 reduction in the accrued liability for
potential claims arising from employee injuries incurred in the normal
course of business prior to May 1, 1994.

    During the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Registrant
recorded an extraordinary item of $172,000 for expenses of the "going
private" tender offer described in Note 8 on page 8.

Financial Condition

    The Registrant generated approximately $1,430,000 in cash from
operations during the nine months ended September 30, 1997.  The Registrant
plans to fund future operations from cash on hand, cash from operations and
use of its credit facility, which had an available revolving line of credit
of $2,100,000 at September 30, 1997, based on the applicable borrowing base
calculation.

    The Registrant plans to use its Real Estate Loan (and Equipment Loan,
if necessary) to finance the tender offer described in Note 8 on page 8.
The Registrant also has an agreement with a bank to borrow up to an
aggregate of $1,000,000 to finance equipment purchases.
