                                                    ========          ========

In connection with a 1999 acquisition, the Company issued a $5,000,000
non-interest bearing term note to the previous owner as partial consideration
for the purchase. Under the terms of the note, a portion of the payments may be
due based on operating results of the acquired business. The Company's original
discount of the note was based on a 15% effective interest rate and estimates of
the operating results of the acquired business. Due to the uncertain timing of
the payout of this term note, the note represented a form of contingent
consideration paid for the acquired business. As a result, the Company adjusted
its estimates related to the timing of the payout of the term note, which
resulted in recording an additional discount of $1,074,000 during the first
quarter of 2002.

                                       7
<PAGE>


The scheduled principal payments of total debt at September 30, 2002 are $4.9
million in 2002, $18.2 million in 2003, $140.3 million in 2004, $0.3 million in
2005 and $1.9 million in 2006. Principal payments of $18.6 million due within
the next twelve months are expected to be refinanced through the unused portion
of the revolving credit facility. As a result, this amount has been classified
as long-term.

5.   ACQUISITIONS

On July 3, 2001 the Company purchased the remaining 51% interest it did not
already own in Knipp Brothers Industries, LLC, KBI Distribution LLC and KB
Industries Limited Partnership (collectively, "KBI") for total consideration of
$34.4 million in cash, net of cash acquired of $1.8 million. As a result, KBI
operating results are included in the consolidated statements of income
beginning July 3, 2001.

On July 1, 2002, the Company purchased a 51% interest in a newly formed
partnership, KBI Norcal, for approximately $4.9 million in cash, $0.8 million of
assumed debt (equipment leases and a working capital loan) and the issuance of
34,384 shares of BMHC common stock. The other 49% interest is owned by RJ
Norcal, LLC, a limited liability company owned by Robert Garcia and John
Volkman. KBI Norcal provides turnkey framing services in Northern California.

Under the purchase agreement, BMHC will have the option to purchase the
remaining 49% interest in KBI Norcal from July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2008 and
the principals of RJ Norcal, LLC have the option to require BMHC to purchase the
remaining 49% of KBI Norcal from July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2008. The
purchase price for the remaining 49% will generally be based on a multiple of
historical earnings. As of September 30, 2002, the purchase price would be
approximately $7.5 million of cash consideration.

KBI Norcal's operating results have been consolidated in these financial
statements effective July 1, 2002. The impact of the 49% ownership interest of
Robert Garcia and John Volkman is reflected in minority interest on the income
statement and on the balance sheet.

During the first nine months of 2002 the Company made three other acquisitions
for aggregate cash consideration of $2.1 million.

The following summarizes unaudited pro forma results of operations for 2001 and
actual results for 2002 assuming the July 3, 2001 acquisition of KBI (the "KBI
Acquisition") occurred as of the beginning of 2001. The pro forma information
does not include the effects of the KBI Norcal investment because such effects
are not material. The pro forma data has been prepared for comparative purposes
only. It does not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that
would have resulted had the KBI Acquisition been consummated at the beginning of
2001, or that may occur in the future (in thousands, except per share data):

8.   CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in the first quarter of 2002. The
provisions of SFAS 142 eliminate the amortization of goodwill and other
indefinite lived intangible assets on a prospective basis beginning with
acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001, or January 1, 2002 for those
completed prior to June 30, 2001. This standard required the Company to complete
a transitional impairment analysis of its recorded goodwill and indefinite lived
intangible assets and to record any impairment charge as a change in accounting
principle as of the first quarter of 2002. The Company has completed the
transitional impairment analysis, which resulted in the following impaired
amounts of goodwill as of January 1, 2002 (in thousands):

In the case of each Reporting Unit (as defined by SFAS 142), fair value was
estimated using the present value of expected future cash flows. Management's
estimate of future cash flows used in the present value analysis resulted in
estimated fair market value being less than the recorded value of tangible and
intangible assets for the Reporting Units listed above. After considering the
estimated fair market value of tangible assets, including land, an impairment of
recorded goodwill occurred. Reasons for the impairment could include increased
competition, a reduction in residential home building within the geographic
markets that these Reporting Units serve, or management issues.

On a prospective basis, the Company is required to test acquired goodwill and
other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis. This
annual test will take place during the fourth quarter each year.

The following reflects adjustments that would be made to net income and earnings
per share if the non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 had been adopted as of
January 1, 2001 (in thousands, except per share data):

THIRD QUARTER OF 2002 COMPARED TO THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2001
-----------------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2002 were $316.9 million,
down 2.8% from the third quarter of 2001 when sales were $326.2 million. The
decrease in net sales resulted primarily from a 3.6% reduction in same-store
sales, or a 0.3% increase after adjusting for decreases in commodity wood
product prices, as compared to the third quarter of 2001 at facilities that
operated for at least two months in the third quarter of both 2001 and 2002. The
impact of decreases in same store sales was partially offset by the
consolidation of KBI Norcal. Construction services and manufactured components
accounted for $168.5 million, or 53.2% of net sales for the third quarter of
2002, an increase from $164.9 million, or 50.6% of net sales for the third
quarter of 2001. Lumber products, building materials and other sales accounted
for $148.4 million, or 46.8% of net sales for the third quarter of 2002, as
compared to $161.3 million, or 49.4% of net sales, for the third quarter of
2001.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 28.4% in the third quarter of
2002 from 27.6% in the third quarter of 2001, primarily as a result of increased
sales of higher margin construction services and manufactured components, such
as framing, roof trusses, pre-hung doors, millwork, and pre-assembled windows.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was $71.5 million, or 22.6%
of net sales in the third quarter of 2002 as compared to $74.3 million, or 22.8%
of net sales in the third quarter of 2001. The Company attributes most of this
decrease to a company-wide effort to reduce SG&A expenses and by the elimination
of goodwill amortization in accordance with new accounting standards. The
decrease was partially offset by higher general insurance expense.

Other income (expense), net, was $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2002
compared to ($0.3) million for the third quarter of 2001. The variance between
the two periods is primarily attributable to the Company's $1.0 million
write-off of its investment in BuildNet, Inc. in 2001, partially offset by a
gain from the sale of a facility in 2001.

Interest expense decreased to $2.6 million from $3.7 million during the third
quarter of 2002 and 2001, respectively, primarily due to a reduction in the
weighted average interest rate to 4.9% from 6.2% as well as a reduction in the
weighted average debt outstanding to $167.7 million during the third quarter of
2002 from $193.3 million during the same period of 2001. The decrease in the
average debt outstanding is primarily due to reduced working capital needs.

                                       13
<PAGE>


Overall, net income improved in the third quarter of 2002 when compared to the
third quarter of 2001. The improvement, however, is primarily attributable to
the net reductions of SG&A expenses and interest expense. Earnings from building
materials distribution and construction services and manufactured components
were lower in the third quarter of 2002 compared to the third quarter of 2001.
Management believes that third quarter earnings were adversely affected by
several factors, including deflation in commodity wood product prices and
increased insurance expense.

FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2002 COMPARED TO THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2001
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 were $864.6 million, up
5.7% from the first nine months of 2001 when sales were $817.8 million. The
increase in net sales resulted primarily from the consolidation of KBI and KBI
Norcal. This increase was partially offset by a 4.9% decrease in same-store
sales, or a 4.4% decrease after adjusting for decreases in commodity wood
product prices, as compared to the first nine months of 2001 at facilities that
operated for at least six months in the first half of both 2001 and 2002.
Construction services and manufactured components accounted for $454.6 million,
or 52.6% of net sales for the first nine months of 2002, an increase from $378.8
million, or 46.3% of net sales for the first nine months of 2001. Lumber
products, building materials and other sales accounted for $410.0 million, or
47.4% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, a decrease
from $439.0 million, or 53.7% of net sales, for the nine months ended September
30, 2001.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 28.5% in the first nine
months of 2002 from 27.8% in the first nine months of 2001, primarily as a
result of increased sales of higher margin construction services and
manufactured components, such as framing, roof trusses, pre-hung doors,
millwork, and pre-assembled windows.

SG&A expense was $210.8 million, or 24.4% of net sales in the first nine months
of 2002 as compared to $195.6 million, or 23.9% of net sales in the first nine
months of 2001. The Company attributes most of this dollar increase to the
consolidation of KBI and KBI Norcal. Increased SG&A expense attributable to the
KBI Acquisition, the KBI Norcal investment and higher general insurance expense
were partially offset by the elimination of goodwill amortization in accordance
with new accounting standards and a company-wide effort to reduce other SG&A
expenses.


There was no equity in earnings of unconsolidated companies in the first nine
months of 2002, compared to $4.8 million in the first nine months of 2001.


                                       14
<PAGE>


This decrease is attributed to the consolidation of KBI, which resulted from the
KBI Acquisition on July 3, 2001.

Other income (expense), net, was $0.6 million for the first nine months of 2002
and 2001. The nine months ended September 30, 2001 includes the Company's $1.0
million write-off of its investment in BuildNet, Inc. and $1.6 million of other
net miscellaneous income.

Interest expense decreased to $7.6 million from $10.5 million during the first
nine months of 2002 and 2001, respectively, due to a reduction in the weighted
average interest rate to 4.9% from 7.3% between the two periods and a decrease
in the weighted average debt outstanding to $169.6 million during the first nine
months of 2002 from $171.4 million during the same period of 2001.

Overall, net income before change in accounting principle increased in the first
nine months of 2002 when compared to the first nine months of 2001. The increase
is primarily related to the consolidation of KBI, which resulted from the KBI
Acquisition on July 3, 2001, and reductions in interest expense. Management
believes that earnings were adversely affected by several factors, including
increased insurance expense and the impact of decreases in commodity wood
product prices.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

The Company's primary need for capital resources is to fund future growth,
capital expenditures, and acquisitions, as well as to finance working capital
needs, which have been increasing as the Company has grown in recent years.
Capital resources have primarily consisted of cash flows from operations and the
incurrence of debt.

OPERATIONS

In the first nine months of 2002 and 2001, net cash provided by operations was
$28.5 million and $37.4 million, respectively. The decrease in cash provided by
operations is primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and inventory,
partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses and
decreases in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Working capital
increased to $174.7 million at September 30, 2002 from $173.9 million at
September 30, 2001.

CAPITAL INVESTMENT AND ACQUISITIONS

Capital expenditures were $14.8 million in the first nine months of 2002.
Capital expenditures were incurred to acquire additional property and expand and
remodel existing facilities. Cash used for acquisitions was $7.9 million,
primarily attributable to the Company's investment in KBI Norcal. Proceeds from
the sale of business units, net of cash sold, were $2.8 million during the first
nine months of 2002, related to the sale of the Jackson, Wyoming, Gardnerville,
Nevada, and Tooele, Utah locations.

FINANCING

Net cash used by financing activities was $2.8 million for the first nine months
of 2002 compared to $12.7 million of net cash provided by financing activities
for the first nine months of 2001. The variance between the two periods is
primarily attributable to borrowings made in June 2001 to purchase the remaining
51% of KBI on July 3, 2001.

At September 30, 2002 the Company's existing senior credit facility provided for
borrowings of up to $296.7 million, which includes $106.7 million provided for
by the term loan all of which was outstanding at September 30, 2002, and $190.0
million provided for by the revolving credit facility, $55.0 million of which
was outstanding at September 30, 2002. Revolver borrowings are limited by a
borrowing base equal to 60% of inventory plus 80% of trade accounts receivable.
The borrowing base is calculated monthly and was $171.4 million at September 30,
2002, resulting in revolver availability of $109.9 million, net of $6.4 million
in outstanding letters of credit. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at
prime plus 0.50% to 1.50%, or Offshore Rate plus 2.0% to 3.0%. The agreement
expires on December 1, 2004.

In the third quarter of 1998, a shelf registration was filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission to register 2,000,000 shares of common stock. The
Company may issue these shares from time to time in connection with future
business combinations, mergers and/or acquisitions. As part of the KBI Norcal
acquisition on July 1, 2002, the Company issued 34,384 shares of stock from this
shelf registration (See Note 5).

Based on the Company's ability to generate cash flows from operations, its
borrowing capacity under the revolver and its access to debt and equity

                                       16

markets, the Company believes it will have sufficient capital to meet its
anticipated needs.

DISCLOSURES OF CERTAIN MARKET RISKS

The Company experiences changes in interest expense when market interest rates
change or changes are made to its debt structure. Based on debt outstanding at
September 30, 2002, a 25 basis point increase in interest rates would result in
approximately $404,000 of additional annual interest costs.

Commodity wood products accounted for approximately 32.5% and 37.7% of net sales
in the first nine months of 2002 and 2001, respectively. Prices of commodity
wood products, which are subject to significant volatility, directly affect net
sales and cost of sales and could affect net income. The Company does not
utilize any derivative financial instruments.

The Company has a cash equity incentive plan that is partially based on changes
in the Company's stock price. Under the plan, a $1.00 increase or decrease in
the Company's stock price after September 30, 2002 would result in an increase
or decrease in compensation expense of approximately $145,000.
