               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note A--Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 and for the period ended December 31, 1999,
include Noble International, Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Noble

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

Results of Operations

         Net Sales. Net sales for the three months March 31, 2000 increased
19.4% to $25.064 million from $20.990 million for the comparable quarter of
1999. The increase in sales is substantially due to higher laser welded blank
sales at NMP, increased steel processing at NMPW and sales arising from
acquisition of the Jebco assets in August 1999 (the "Jebco Acquisition").

         Cost of Goods Sold. As a percent of net sales, cost of goods sold for
the three month period ended March 31, 2000 increased to 67.9% as compared with
63.2% for the prior year period. The increase in cost of goods sold as a percent
of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 is primarily due to
higher material cost required to produce certain new business, including sales
arising from the Jebco Acquisition, and the inclusion of costs for certain plant
personnel previously reported in selling, general and administrative expenses.

         Gross Profit. The Company's gross profit increased by 4.3% to $8.051
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $7.716 million for the
comparable period of 1999.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased by $.253 million, or 6.1% for the three month
period ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the comparable period of 1999. The
decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was due primarily to
reductions in overhead expenses and to the reclassification of costs for certain
plant personnel to cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2000.

         Operating Profit. As a result of the foregoing factors, operating
profit increased to $4.181 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000
compared with $3.593 million in the prior period, an increase of 16.4%.

         Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased 3.2% to $.515 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $.532 million for the comparable
quarter of the prior year.

         Net Earnings. As a result of the foregoing factors, net earnings from
continuing operations before extraordinary item increased by $.289million to
$2.294 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from earnings of $2.005
million for the prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company's cash requirements have historically been satisfied
through a combination of cash flow from operations, equipment financing, bank
financing and loans from stockholders. The Company's working capital needs and
capital equipment requirements have increased as a result of the growth of the
Company and are expected to continue to increase as a result of anticipated
growth. The anticipated increase in required working capital and capital
equipment requirements are expected to be met from the cash flow from
operations, equipment financing and revolving credit borrowings. As of March 31,
2000, the Company had working capital of approximately $6.058 million. Working
capital at March 31, 2000, included $1.329 million net assets of discontinued
operations and $6.660 million of income taxes payable, substantially all of
which is related to sale of the discontinued operations. Total debt includes all
borrowing related to both continuing and discontinued operations.


                                       11

         The Company generated cash flow from continuing operations of $2.828
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Net cash provided from
continuing operations was primarily the result of net earnings and depreciation
and amortization and lower inventories, prepaid expenses, other assets, income
taxes currently refundable, partially offset by higher accounts receivable and
lower accrued liabilities. The Company used cash in discontinued operations of
$.115 million prior to the Tiercon Sale on January 11, 2000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000. The Company generated cash of $83.639 million during the
three months ended March 31, 2000, net of related cash expenses, from the
Tiercon Sale. Cash used in investing activities of $4.434 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 was for purchase of property, plant and equipment.
The Company used cash in financing activities of $82.378 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2000. Proceeds from the Tiercon Sale sale were used to
reduce amounts borrowed under the Company's secured revolving credit facility
(the "Credit Facility") with Comerica Bank, N.A. The Company repaid a $5.000
million term note payable to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
redeemed $5.688 million of 6% Convertible Subordinated Debentures and
repurchased $.3 million of its common shares. Expenditures for property, plant
and equipment were primarily to fund equipment purchases for NMP's new facility
in Shelbyville, Kentucky which is scheduled for completion by June 2000 and to
begin commercial production in August 2000.

     The amount of the Credit Facility was $105 million at December 31, 1999,
subsequently amended to a $50 million facility following the Tiercon Sale and
use of $86.0 million cash proceeds to repay borrowings outstanding under the
Credit Facility. The Credit Facility expires in May 2002, is secured by the
assets of Noble and its subsidiaries and provides for the issuance of up to $5
million in standby or documentary letters of credit. The Credit Facility may be
utilized for general corporate purposes, including working capital and
acquisition financing, and provides the Company with borrowing options for
multi-currency loans. Borrowing options include a eurocurrency rate or a base
rate. Advances under the Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31,
2000 bore interest at the rate of approximately 8.2% per annum. The Credit
Facility is subject to customary financial and other covenants including, but
not limited to, limitations on payment of dividends, limitations on
consolidations, mergers, and sales of assets, and bank approval on acquisitions
over $25 million. The Company is in compliance with the terms of the Credit
Facility.

         The liquidity provided by the Company's credit facilities, combined
with cash flow from operations and the Tiercon Sale, is expected to be
sufficient to meet the Company's currently anticipated working capital and
capital expenditure needs for at least 12 months. There can be no assurance,
however, that such funds will not be expended prior thereto due to changes in
economic conditions or other unforeseen circumstances, requiring the Company to
obtain additional financing prior to the end of such 12 month period. In
addition, the Company regularly reviews, as part of its business strategy,
future growth through opportunistic acquisitions which may involve the
expenditure of significant funds. Depending upon the nature, size and timing of
future acquisitions, if any, the Company may be required to obtain additional
debt or equity financing in connection with such future acquisitions. There can
be no assurance, however, that additional financing will be available to the
Company, when and if needed, on acceptable terms or at all.

Inflation

         Inflation generally affects the Company by increasing the interest
expense of floating rate indebtedness and by increasing the cost of labor,
equipment and raw materials. The Company does not believe that inflation has had
a material effect on its business over the past two years.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

         The Company is exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
International revenues from the Company's foreign subsidiaries were
approximately 18% of the total revenues for the three months ended March 31,
2000. The Company's primary foreign currency exposure is the Canadian Dollar.
The Company manages its exposures to foreign currency assets and earnings
primarily by funding certain foreign currency denominated assets with
liabilities in the same currency and, as such, certain exposures are naturally
offset.

         A portion of the Company's assets are based in its foreign operations
and are translated into U.S. Dollars at foreign currency exchange rates in
effect as of the end of each period, with the effect of such translation
reflected as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Accordingly, the
Company's consolidated shareholders' equity will fluctuate depending on the
weakening or strengthening of the U.S. Dollar against the respective foreign
currency.

         The Company's financial results are affected by changes in U.S. and
foreign interest rates. The Company does not hold financial instruments that are
subject to market risk (interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk).
