       MILASTAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Nature of business  Milastar Corporation ("Milastar" and
sometimes the "Company") is primarily involved in selling special
metallurgical and secondary metal processing services to a diversified list
of customers located in the greater Midwest and New England regions
who manufacture a wide variety of end-products and depend upon out-
sourcing of specialized processing of their metal components.  The
Company extends credit to many of its customers. 

  Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries,
Flame Metals Processing Corporation ("Flame Metals"), Northwest
Engineering Labs, Inc., Jardun Apparel Corp., Milastar Services
Corporation and Flame Metals' wholly owned subsidiary New England
Metal Treating Corporation ("New England Metal").  In consolidation,
all significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.
  Cash and cash equivalents The Company considers cash
equivalents to include all investments purchased with an original
maturity of 90 days or less.

  Marketable securities and other investments On May 1, 1994 the
Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Accounting Standards
No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities (Statement 115).  Under Statement 115, the Company classifies
its debt and equity securities in one of three categories: trading,
available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity.  Trading securities are bought
and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. 
Held-to-maturity securities are those securities in which the Company
has the ability and intent to hold the security until maturity.  All other
securities not included in trading or held-to-maturity are classified as
available-for-sale.  Trading and available-for-sale securities are recorded
at fair value.  Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost,
adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums of discounts. 
Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading securities are included in
earnings.  Unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale
securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate
component of stockholders' equity until realized.  Transfers of securities
between categories are recorded at fair value at the date of transfer.  A
decline in the market value of any available-for-sale or held-to-maturity
security below cost that is deemed other than temporary is charged to
earnings resulting in the establishment of a new cost basis for the
security.  At April 30, 1994 marketable securities were carried at the
lower of aggregate cost or market.

  Inventory Inventory is carried at cost as determined by the First-
In-First-Out (FIFO) method.

  Prepaid supplies Prepaid supplies are expensed as used.

  Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are
carried at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. 
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related
depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is
reflected in income for the period.  The cost of maintenance and repairs
is charged to income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and
betterments are capitalized and deductions are made for retirements
resulting from the renewals or betterments.

  The estimated useful lives of the fixed assets are as follows:

   Buildings. . . . . . . . 35 years
   Equipment. . . . . . . . 5 to 12 years
   Vehicles . . . . . . . . 3 to 5 years



  Other assets Other assets are comprised of two five-year non-
compete agreements, fully amortized at January  31, 1997, which were
being amortized over 60 months using the straight-line method and one
four-year non-compete agreement which is being amortized over 48
months using the straight-line method.

  Income taxes  The Company accounts for income taxes under
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes" (Statement 109).  Statement 109 requires the use of the asset and
liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the asset and
liability method of Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year
in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled.  Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.

  Accounting 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 Company's financial
instruments are recorded on its balance sheet.  The carrying amount for
cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses
approximates fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of
these financial instruments.  The fair value of notes receivable and notes
payable approximate their carrying value.

2   MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND OTHER INVESTMENTS

  Marketable securities and other investments consists of bonds and
common stock and are being used to invest excess cash until an
appropriate acquisition or operating need arises.  In accordance with
Statement 115, at October 31, 1996 and 1995, marketable securities and
other investments are classified as available-for-sale and as such
unrealized gains and losses are reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity until realized.  Dividend income, interest income,
and prepayment losses on debt securities are accrued as earned.  The
Company uses specific identification to determine the fair value of
marketable securities and other investments.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
         and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

     Three Months Ended January 31, 1997 Compared to Three Months
Ended January 31, 1996.  The Company recorded sales of $1,672,000
during the third quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared to $1,374,000 for the
same period last year, a $298,000 (22%) increase.  The sales increase was
caused by a combination of increased sales at Flame Metals (9%) and
increased sales due to the acquisition of New England Metal (13%). 

     Cost of sales of $1,315,000 (79% of net sales) increased $135,000
(11%) from $1,180,000 (86% of net sales) for the same period a year
earlier.  The increase in cost of sales is primarily due to a combination
of decreased cost of sales at Flame Metals as a result of improved
efficiencies (7%) and increased sales resulting from the addition of New
England Metal (18%). Gross margin increased to $357,000 compared to
$194,000 for the prior year third quarter.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses of $415,000 (25% of net
sales) increased $10,000 (2%) from $405,000 (29% of net sales) recorded
during the third quarter of fiscal 1996.  The increase is primarily the
result of the addition of New England Metal.  Management's goal is to
reduce or hold constant selling and G&A expenses while increasing sales.

     The Company recorded an operating loss of $66,000 in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared to an operating loss of $225,000
recorded in the prior year third quarter.  The improvement in operating
performance was primarily due to reduced operating costs at Flame
Metals.  Management continues to reduce labor costs relative to sales
and as such has increased the Company's revenue per employee.

     Total other income (expense) amounted to $9,000 income in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to other income (expense) of $4,000
expense in the third quarter of last year.  The other income in the
current third quarter was primarily the result of a gain on the sale of
investments being partially offset by increased interest expense.

     The Company recorded a net loss in the third quarter of fiscal 1997
of $57,000 compared to a $229,000 net loss in the prior year third
quarter.  The loss in the current third quarter was primarily due to New
England Metal which experienced lower than expected sales as a result
of a major customer moving out of the market.

         
     Nine Months Ended January 31, 1997 Compared to Nine Months
Ended January 31, 1996.  The Company recorded sales of $5,412,000
during the first three quarters of fiscal 1997 as compared to $5,020,000
for the same period last year, a $392,000 (8%) increase.  The increase
was caused by a combination of decreased sales at Flame Metals (4%)
and increased sales due to the acquisition of New England Metal
Treating (12%).

     Cost of sales of $4,101,000 (76% of net sales) increased $234,000 (6%)
from $3,867,000 (77% of net sales) for the same period a year earlier. 
The increase in cost of sales is primarily due to a combination of
decreased cost of sales at Flame Metals as a result of decreased sales and
improved efficiencies (10%) and increased sales resulting from the
addition of New England Metal Treating (16%).  Gross margin
increased to $1,311,000 compared to $1,153,000 in the prior year first
three quarters.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses of $1,311,000 (24% of
net sales) increased $35,000 (4%) from 1,276,000 (25% of net sales)
recorded during the first three quarters of fiscal 1996.  The increase was
primarily due to the acquisition of New England Metal Treating.


     
     The Company recorded an operating loss of $57,000 in the first three
quarters of fiscal 1997 as compared to an operating loss of $165,000
recorded in the same period last year.  The improvement in operating
performance was primarily due to continually improving efficiencies,
including introduction of the new mesh belt furnace, at Flame Metals. 
The new mesh belt furnace, which became fully operational during the
current third quarter, is expected to increase sales and further reduce
costs.

     Total other income (expense) amounted to $65,000 expense for first
three quarters of fiscal 1997 compared to other income (expense) of
$40,000 expense in the same period last year.  The increase is primarily
due to an increase in interest expense was related to the purchase and
financing of a new mesh belt furnace at Flame Metals and to the debt
incurred on the financing of the New England Metal acquisition.
     The Company recorded a net loss in the first three quarters of fiscal
1997 of $114,000 compared to a net loss of $205,000 in the first three
quarters of the prior year.  The loss in the first three quarters of fiscal
1997 was primarily due to New England Metal which experienced lower
than expected sales as a result of a major customer moving out of the
market.

                         
Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At January 31, 1997, the Company's working capital was $199,000
compared to $123,000 at April 30, 1996 and the ratio of current assets to
current liabilities was 1.2 to 1 and 1.1 to 1, respectively.  Cash,
marketable securities and other investments and current receivables
represented 77% (74% at April 30, 1996) and 17% (19% at April 30,
1996) of total current assets and total assets, respectively.  During the
first three quarters of fiscal 1997, cash provided by operating activities
amounted to $408,000 compared to $442,000 provided by operating
activities in  the first three quarters of fiscal 1996.  Working capital
requirements for the first three quarters of fiscal 1997 were funded
primarily from available cash and from operations.
