Item 1.   BUSINESS

     Pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement")
among Remington Arms Company, Inc. ("Remington"), Sporting Goods Properties,
Inc. ("Sporting Goods") and its parent E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company
("DuPont"), at a closing on December 1, 1993 (the "Closing"), Remington acquired
(the "Acquisition") substantially all the assets and business of Sporting Goods,
as well as certain other assets of DuPont used in connection with the marketing
of fishline and fishline accessories (collectively, the "Business").  Remington
and its parent, RACI Holding, Inc. ("Holding"), are Delaware corporations
organized in 1993 at the direction of Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, Inc. ("CD&R"), a
private investment firm, to acquire the Company from Sporting Goods and DuPont
(the "Sellers").  Remington is a wholly owned subsidiary of Holding.  Unless the
context otherwise requires, the term "Company" means, with respect to periods
prior to the Acquisition, the business conducted by the Sellers, and with
respect to periods after the Acquisition, Holding and its subsidiaries
(including Remington).  The market share and competitive position data contained
in this report is based on industry and government sources.  The Company
believes that such data is inherently imprecise, but is generally indicative of
its relative market share and competitive position.  Certain market share data
is based on the latest available information published by the National Sporting
Goods Association ("NSGA"), American Sports Data Incorporated ("ASD"), the
National Sporting Markets Research Group ("SMRG") and The Martec Group ("MG").

GENERAL

     Founded in 1816, the Company is engaged in the design, manufacture and sale
of sporting good products for the hunting, shooting sports and fishing markets.
The Company's product lines consist of firearms, ammunition and hunting/gun care
accessories sold under the Remington name and other labels, fishing products
sold under the Stren name and other labels and clay targets.  The Company is the
only domestic manufacturer of both firearms and ammunition and, according to the
NSGA, is the largest U.S. manufacturer of shotguns and rifles.  The Company
manufactures firearms at a one million square foot facility in Ilion, New York,
ammunition at a 750 thousand square foot plant in Lonoke, Arkansas, and clay
targets at two plants located in Findlay, Ohio and Ada, Oklahoma.  The Company
recently completed construction of a new 44 thousand square foot firearms
manufacturing facility in Mayfield, Kentucky, at which the Company began
manufacturing rimfire rifles in April 1997.  In 1995, the Company completed the
consolidation of its research and development activities at a new 33 thousand
square foot facility in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.  The Company markets fishline
sourced from third party manufacturers.  The Company's products are distributed
throughout the United States and in over 60 other countries, with distribution
in the United States occurring primarily through wholesalers, distributors and
major retail chains.  In 1997, 8% of the Company's revenues were attributable to
sales outside the United States.

     Remington enjoys a domestic market leadership position for many of its
firearms product lines and is one of the three major manufacturers in the
domestic ammunition market.  According to studies conducted for the Company,
among hunters and anglers, Remington and Stren are among the most-recognized
brand names in their markets.  The Company believes that its substantial market
positions are attributable to the strength of the Remington and Stren brand
names, the Company's family of well-established products, the breadth of
products sold by the Company, product innovation and quality and the Company's
marketing, distribution and manufacturing expertise. The market share data
included herein is the most recent market share data available from third party
sources.  Such data may not accurately reflect the Company's market shares for
more recent periods, although the Company believes such data is generally
indicative of its relative market share and competitive position.  In 1996,
according to NSGA, the Company had the largest share of the U.S. retail shotgun
market based on sales volume, at approximately 32%, with its nearest competitor


                                       3
<PAGE>

holding a market share of approximately 19%.  Remington was also the largest
brand of rifles in the United States in 1996 based on sales volume, according to
NSGA, with a market share of approximately 21%, with its nearest competitor
holding a market share of approximately 16%.  In the ammunition market, the
Company was one of the largest brands in the United States in 1996, based on MG
data, with a market share of approximately 26% based on sales dollars, with its
leading competitor holding a market share of approximately 27%.  In November
1997, Blount International, Inc. acquired Federal Cartridge Company.  According
to MG data, the combined companies could potentially be the largest seller of
ammunition in the United States. Sales of firearms and ammunition comprised
approximately 44% and 42%, respectively, of the Company's sales in 1997.  In the
U.S. retail fishline market segment, the Company held a share of approximately
25% in 1996 based on sales dollars, with its leading competitor holding a market
share of approximately 39%, according to SMRG.

     The Company's management team intends to continue a strategy aimed at
increasing sales and improving operating margins, focusing on the following key
elements: continuing to support the Company's brand name franchise and
maintaining its focus on its core product lines and businesses; pursuing growth
in revenues through a continuing emphasis on new product introductions and
product line extensions; and continuing to pursue cost reduction and
productivity improvement measures, particularly in the Company's manufacturing
operations and in its purchasing, customer service and information systems
functions.

INDUSTRY

     According to ASD as of 1996, approximately 27 million people in the United
States enjoy shooting sports, including approximately 18 million who hunt
annually.  The markets for shotguns, rifles and hunting-related products, such
as ammunition and accessories, are large, mature markets that the Company
believes generally will remain relatively flat, at least in the near future.
Total domestic consumer expenditures in these markets for 1996 are estimated by
the NSGA to have been $429 million for shotguns, $452 million for rifles, and
$681 million for ammunition.

     The Company believes that a number of trends currently exist that are
potentially significant to the firearms and ammunition markets.  First, the
Company believes that the development of rural property in many locations has
curtailed or eliminated access by hunters to private and public lands.  However,
the Company also believes that the number of private hunting facilities is
increasing, as is the availability of alternatives to traditional hunting
activities, such as sporting clays and shooting games that simulate hunting, and
that these trends may help offset increasing restrictions on access and land
use.  Second, environmental issues, such as concern about lead in the
environment, may also adversely affect the industry.  See "-- Environmental
Matters."  The Company has developed a line of shotshells that use steel shot
instead of the industry standard lead shot, and that are intended to reduce the
amount of lead being introduced into the environment and to appeal not only to
the shooter legally required to use steel shot, but also to the environmentally
concerned shooter.  Third, the Company believes that safety issues may affect
sales of firearms, ammunition and other hunting-related products; in the
northeastern United States, for example, some communities permit hunters to use
only shotguns (which have a shorter average range than rifles) for deer hunting
in order to minimize the possibility of shooting accidents in more densely
populated areas.  The Company has developed specialized ammunition, its Premier
Copper Solid sabot slug, that is intended for use in a shotgun but that is
designed to give hunters the accuracy and effectiveness of a rifle.  Although
the Company believes that these trends have not had a material adverse effect on
its business in the past, there can be no assurance that they will not do so in
the future, or that industry sales of firearms, ammunition and other shooting-
related products will not decline.  See "--Regulation."

     According to ASD as of 1996, approximately 50 million people participated
in fishing activities.   Fishing is considered an inexpensive sport that can be
enjoyed by people of widely varying ages, skills and abilities.  The SMRG
estimates that the U.S. retail market for recreational fishline exceeded $88
million in 1996, of which the Company has a 25% market share based on sales
dollars.

PRODUCTS

     The Company's product offerings include a comprehensive line of
recreational shotguns and rifles, sporting ammunition and ammunition reloading
components, a line of hunting knives, maintenance and repair items for the
Company's line of firearms, related firearms accessories (belts, clips, and
protective cases), clay targets and other products and accessories for the
recreational hunting, target shooting and outdoor markets, as well as small
powdered

                                       4

metal product ("PMP") parts for the automotive and firearms industries. In
addition, the Company distributes a range of monofilament fishline, terminal
tackle and accessories under the brand name Stren. During its 180-year history,
the Company has introduced to the firearms market its versions of the
autoloading shotgun (1905), the repeating centerfire rifle (1906), the pump-
action shotgun (1907) and the bolt-action centerfire rifle (1921), all of which
became standards in the industry. The following sets forth the Company's sales
for its principal product lines for the periods shown:

(a) Consists of fishline, accessories, guncare products and commercial PMP
parts.

Firearms
--------

     The Company produces and markets a broad selection of shotguns and rifles
under the Remington brand name.  The Company's goal has been to market a
combination of general-purpose firearms together with more specialized products
that embody Remington's emphasis on value, performance and design.  In addition,
the Company produces custom-made shotguns and rifles in the custom shop at its
Ilion facility.

     Shotguns.  The Company produces numerous variations of shotguns.  The
     ---------
Company's most popular shotguns, the Model 1100 and Model 11-87 auto-loading and
the Model 870 pump-action, range in retail list price from approximately $300 to
$800.  Remington shotguns are offered in versions that are marketed to both the
novice and the experienced gun owner.  Specialty shotguns focus on the growing
deer and turkey hunting markets.  In addition, the Company has recently
introduced new shotguns intended for various law enforcement applications and
light contoured barrels for both auto-loading and pump-action Premier shotguns.
The Company also manufactures its over-under Peerless and Model 396 shotguns,
which were developed by the Company to compete in the break action shotgun
market.  The Company also manufactures products for recreational and competitive
clay target shooting, such as the Sporting Clays Model 11-87 and trap and skeet
versions of the Model 11-87.

     Rifles.  The Company's most popular rifles are the Model 700, Model Seven,
     -------
Model 7400 and Model 7600 centerfire rifles and the new family of Model 597
rimfire rifles.  To appeal to a broad range of shooters, the Company
manufactures these rifles in a wide variety of calibers, configurations and
finishes.  The Company presently manufactures three types of centerfire rifles:
bolt-action, pump-action and auto-loading.  In addition, the Company produces
bolt-action, pump-action and auto-loading .22 caliber rimfire rifles.  The
Company's bolt-action Model 700 rifle is a standard in the industry, and the
Company has also recently introduced new versions utilizing stainless steel
barrels and synthetic stocks for weather durability.  Recent innovations include
a new line of muzzleloading rifles, a new line of .22 caliber rimfire rifles and
fine line engraving and scrollwork processes to enhance the appearance of the
existing product lines.  Retail list prices for the Company's most popular
rifles range from approximately $160 to $900.

Ammunition
----------

     The Company designs, manufactures and markets a complete line of sporting
ammunition products, including shotgun shells, metallic centerfire ammunition
for use in rifles and handguns and .22 caliber rimfire ammunition.  The Company
also produces and markets sporting ammunition components used by smaller
ammunition manufacturers, as well as by private consumers engaged in the
practice of reloading centerfire cases or shotgun shells.

     The Company distributes its ammunition products primarily under the brand
names Remington, Peters and UMC, through firearms dealers, sporting goods stores
and mass merchandisers.  In general, Remington branded products compete in both
the middle and high performance categories, while the UMC and Peters brands are
used for popularly priced ammunition.

                                       5
<PAGE>

     In recent years the Company introduced a number of new ammunition product
lines intended to satisfy the trend towards more specialized, high performance
products.  Typical of Remington's more recent introductions is the STS, a
premium quality shotshell for clay target shooting.

     In addition, the Company is committed to maintaining a leadership position
in the design and manufacture of products that address hunting and shooting
regulations focusing on environmental issues, and recently introduced the
Disintegrator, a lead free frangible pistol ammunition, that breaks into small
pieces upon impact, for practice shooting and training.

Other Products
--------------

     The Company's Stren product line offers seven families of fishline for the
recreational fisherman.  The Company also markets a limited line of fishing
accessories, including tools, knives, terminal tackle and lure accessories.

     Remington produces a complete line of clay targets for use in trap and
skeet shooting activities, marketed under the Blue Rock brand name.

     The Company also markets gun parts, gun safes, gun care products, hunting
knives and PMP parts for the automotive and firearms industries. The Company has
licensed third parties to manufacture and market sporting and outdoor apparel
products.   See "--Licensing."

SERVICE AND WARRANTY

     The Company supports service and repair facilities for all of its firearm
products in order to meet the service needs of its distributors and customers
nationwide.  Distributors and customers may return products to the Company only
after receiving authorization for the return by the Company's customer service
department.  Returns that are caused by the Company's error, such as a shipment
of the wrong product or of an incorrect quantity, are at the Company's expense.
The Company has no formal consumer warranty program for firearms or ammunition
products.  The number of returns received by the Company annually in the past
has not been material.

MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION

     In the United States, Remington products are distributed primarily through
a network of wholesalers and retailers who purchase the product directly from
the Company for resale predominantly to gun dealers and end users, respectively.
The end users include sportsmen, hunters, target shooters, gun collectors and
law enforcement and other government organizations.

     The Company's products are marketed primarily through manufacturer's sales
representatives.  In 1997, approximately 61% of the Company's sales consisted of
sales made through five manufacturer's sales representative groups who market
principally to wholesalers, dealers and regional chains.  Such sales
representatives are prohibited from selling competing goods from other
manufacturers and are paid variable commissions based on the product sold. The
customers to which the sales representatives market the Company's products are
authorized to carry specified types of Remington products for a non-exclusive
one-year term, though not all carry the full range of products.  These customers
generally carry broader lines of merchandise than do the mass merchandisers and
are less seasonal in sales. While the wholesalers, dealers and regional chains
are currently experiencing a trend toward consolidation, the Company does not
believe that this trend will materially adversely affect the Company's sales or
profitability.

     The Company's in-house sales force markets the Company's product lines
directly to national accounts (consisting primarily of mass merchandisers) and
to federal, state and local government agencies.  Approximately 20% of the
Company's total net revenues in 1997 consisted of sales made to a national
account, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. ("Wal-Mart").  National accounts  generally
provide convenient access for hunting and shooting consumers to the Company's
products but carry a more limited array of products and are more seasonal in
sales.  The Company's sales to Wal-Mart are not governed by a written contract
between the parties.  Although the Company believes its relationship with Wal-
Mart is good, the loss of this customer or a substantial reduction in sales to
this customer could adversely affect the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.  During 1996, changes in the inventory management
practices and purchasing patterns of several key customers, including Wal-Mart,
had a material effect on the Company's

                                       6
<PAGE>

financial results and cash flows. See "Management's Discussion of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operations." No material portion of the Company's
business is subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts at
the election of a governmental purchaser.

     Foreign sales were approximately 8% of the Company's total revenues for
1997, 1996 and 1995.  Company sales personnel market directly to foreign
purchasers consisting primarily of authorized export distributors and sales
representatives, generally on a nonexclusive basis and for a one-year term.
Vios S.a.r.l., a company formerly owned in part by a former Company employee,
also provided administrative support for the Company with its international
operations.  Vios S.a.r.l. was dissolved in 1997 and certain of its
administrative operations were taken over by a branch of the Company located in
Switzerland. In 1995, Remington formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Remington
International, Ltd., which is a foreign sales corporation.

     Most of the Company's firearms products that are generally used during the
fall hunting season have been sold pursuant to a "dating" plan which allows the
purchasing distributor to buy the products commencing at the beginning of the
Company's dating plan year, and pay for them on extended terms.  Discounts are
offered for early payment under this plan.  In the first quarter of each dating
plan year, the Company receives orders from its customers, which are designated
as firm by such customers, although the Company generally permits adjustments in
outstanding unfilled orders.  The Company also follows industry practice in
canceling most firearms orders from its distributors that remain unfilled at the
end of each dating plan year.  The backlog of unfilled firearms orders was
approximately $25 million as of November 30, 1997, compared to $27 million in
the prior year.

     In addition, the Company formerly maintained a separate program that
provided an incentive to prepay for ammunition purchases prior to shipment.
While the Company believes that allowing both extended payment terms for early
orders and discounts for prepayment helps to level out the demand for these
otherwise seasonal products throughout the year, the Company discontinued the
ammunition prepayment program effective with the 1997 sales year in response to
competitive actions. The Company maintains a dating plan relating to ammunition
which offers discounts for payment prior to the Company's usual 90 day payment
period. For further discussion of seasonality and related matters, see
"Management's Discussion of Financial Condition and Results of Operations --
Recent Purchasing Patterns; Seasonality."

MANUFACTURING

     The Company currently manufactures its products at five plants, located
within the United States.  The Company's facility in Ilion, New York,
manufactures shotguns, rifles and accessory parts such as extra barrels, and
also houses a portion of  the Company's gunsmith repair services, custom gun
shop, the Remington Country Store and the Remington Museum.  Company products
have been continuously produced at the Ilion site since 1816.  The Company's
facility in Lonoke, Arkansas, manufactures loaded ammunition and ammunition
components. The Company's clay targets are manufactured at facilities located at
Ada, Oklahoma and Findlay, Ohio.  The Company recently completed construction of
a new firearms manufacturing facility in Mayfield, Kentucky at which the Company
began manufacturing rimfire rifles in April 1997.  The Company also purchases
certain component parts from third party vendors.

Firearms
--------

     To manufacture its various firearm models, the Company utilizes a
combination of parts manufactured from raw materials at the Ilion and Mayfield
facilities or components purchased from independent manufacturers.  Prior to
assembly, purchased parts may be modified through several secondary processes
such as metal removal, joining, heat treating and coloring.  Manufactured parts,
including many of the basic metal component parts of the firearms manufactured
by the Company, are produced from raw materials via the processes of material
removal, finishing, heat treating, assembly/gallery testing and forming using
metal and plastic injection molding techniques.  Quality control processes are
employed throughout the production process, utilizing specifically tailored
testing procedures and analyses.  The Company believes that its manufacturing
safety record is excellent.

                                       7
<PAGE>

Ammunition
----------

     The manufacturing of ammunition at Lonoke consists of four major production
areas: Primer, Centerfire, Shotshell and Rimfire.  In the Primer area,
ingredients are manufactured on site utilizing two separate precipitation
processes and then combined with fuels and binders to form primer mixture.  The
Centerfire operation consists of bullet manufacture, shell manufacture, priming,
loading and packaging.  The Shotshell operation consists of shot manufacture,
head manufacture, body manufacture, assembly and prime, loading and packaging.
Lead shot is manufactured by pouring molten lead through a screen, forming lead
spheres which solidify as they fall over 100 feet into a cushion of water.  The
other components of a shotshell are formed from brass strip, brass plated steel
and polyethylene hulls and wads via several stamping and extrusion processes.
The Rimfire operation consists of shell manufacture, priming, loading and
packaging.  Several continuous rotary machines form shells, insert bullets and
add smokeless powder.  Throughout the various processes, Company technicians
continuously monitor and test the velocity, pressure, and accuracy levels of the
ammunition.  The Company believes that its manufacturing safety record is among
the best in the U.S. ammunition market.

Clay Targets
------------

     Targets are manufactured from a mixture of limestone and melted pitch.  The
mixture is fed into a continuous motion press that forms the target, cools the
target and paints the top.

SUPPLY OF RAW MATERIALS

     To manufacture its various products, the Company utilizes numerous raw
materials, including steel, lead, brass, plastics and wood, as well as
manufactured parts purchased from independent manufacturers.  For a number of
the Company's raw materials, it relies on one or a few suppliers.  The Company's
requirements for carbon steel, stainless steel,  brass strip and walnut gun
stock blanks are each currently being met by a single vendor.  Generally, the
Company has had satisfactory, long-term relationships with these suppliers.  The
Company has purchase contracts with certain of these suppliers for periods
ranging from one to seven years, but no formal contracts with others.

     Alternative vendors could be found for brass strip, carbon steel, stainless
steel and walnut gun stock blanks.  However, any disruption in the Company's
relationships with any of these vendors or reductions in the production of the
material supplied could, in each case, adversely affect the Company's ability to
obtain an adequate supply of the material.  The Company believes that it has a
good relationship with each of these vendors and does not currently anticipate
any material shortages or disruptions in supply from these vendors.

     Three companies in the United States and Canada produce smokeless powder,
which is an indispensable component in the ammunition manufactured and sold by
the Company.  The Company currently purchases powder from each of these three
suppliers.  The Company believes that any two of these three companies could
supply substantially all of the Company's powder requirements.  However, given
the complex formulae and production processes involved in manufacturing the
powder mixtures used by the Company, obtaining powder from sources other than
these three companies may not be feasible.

     The Company purchases a number of stamped parts from one vendor.  While
alternative vendors can be found to replace this supplier, any disruption in the
Company's relationship with this supplier could result in substantial
expenditures for tooling.  The Company believes that it has a good relationship
with its current supplier and does not currently anticipate any material
shortages or disruptions in supply of these stamped parts.

     The Company purchases most of the fishline it requires for its product
lines from DuPont under a supply agreement, the initial term of which expires in
December 1998 and which is automatically renewed annually unless either party
notifies the other of its intent to terminate.   Any disruption in the Company's
relationship with DuPont, or reductions in fishline production by DuPont, could
adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain an adequate supply of fishline
on terms favorable to the Company.

     Alternative sources, many of which are foreign, exist for each of these
materials from which the Company could obtain such raw materials.  Nonetheless,
the Company does not currently have significant supply relationships with any of
these alternative sources and cannot estimate with any certainty the length of
time that would be required to

                                       8
<PAGE>

establish such a supply relationship, or the sufficiency of the quantity or
quality of materials that could be so obtained. In addition, the Company may
incur additional costs in sourcing raw materials from alternative producers.

     The price and availability of raw materials are affected by a wide variety
of interrelated economic and other factors, including alternative uses of
materials and their components, changes in production capacity, energy prices
and governmental regulations.  Industry competition and the timing of price
increases by suppliers limits to some extent the ability of the Company and
other industry participants to pass raw material cost increases on to customers.

     The Company uses commodity futures contracts to hedge against the risk of
increased prices for raw materials.  See "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital
Resources -- Financial Instruments."

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

     The Company maintains a research and development program, with
approximately 50 employees assigned to these efforts as of December 31, 1997.
New products and improvements to existing products are developed based upon the
perceived needs and demands of consumers, as well as successful products
introduced to the market by the Company's competitors.  The Company's research
and development program involves an in-house team of engineers, draftsmen,
product testers and marketing managers using tools such as computer-assisted
design and a variety of consumer research techniques.  Research and plant
technical staff then collaborate to produce an experimental prototype, ensuring
that products and manufacturing processes are concurrently designed. Following a
successful prototype, a pilot run is commenced to ensure that plant personnel
and equipment can manufacture the product efficiently. The Company has
introduced several new products employing innovations in design and
manufacturing, including the new Model 597 family of autoloading rimfire rifles,
a new muzzle-loading black powder rifle, and  a 3  1/2" Express Super Magnum
Shotgun.  The Company has also directed its research efforts to developing lead-
free primer mixes and steel shot shotshells as well as lead free frangible
pistol ammunition, to prepare for anticipated trends toward products that
address environmental concerns.

     In 1995, the Company completed the consolidation of its research and
development function into a new facility in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.  Research
and development expenses of $5.3 million for 1995 were net of a $1.0 million
benefit as the actual relocation-related severance costs resulting from the
Company's consolidation of its research and development function were less than
estimated in 1994.  Excluding this nonrecurring item in 1995, research and
development expenditures for the continuing operations of the Company in 1995,
1996 and 1997 amounted to approximately $6.3 million, $10.2 million and $7.4
million, respectively.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

     The Company's operations are not dependent to any significant extent upon
any single or related group of patents.  The Company believes that its most
significant patents are three patents relating to the Model 700 rifle and the
Model 870 and Model 11-87 shotguns, which patents expire in 1998, 1999 and 2006,
respectively.  The Company does not believe that the expiration of any of these
patents will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition
or its results of operations.  The Company's operations are not dependent upon
any single trademark other than the Remington word mark, the Remington logo
mark, and, to a lesser extent, the Stren mark.  Some of the trademarks used by
the Company, however, are identified with and important to the sale of the
Company's products.  Some of the more important trademarks used by the Company,
all of which are owned by the Company, are: Remington, the Remington scroll
logo, Stren, Core-Lokt (jacketed centerfire bullets), Express (long range
shotshells), Power Piston (shotshell wads), Premier (the Company's highest
quality ammunition), Copper Solid (solid copper slugs), Golden Saber (high
performance jacketed hollow point bullets for pistols/revolvers), Nitro-Steel
(high powered steel shotshells), UMC (popularly priced ammunition, in a limited
line of popular specifications), Leadless (reduced lead-releasing bullets),
Nitro-27 (handicap trap loads), Model 90-T (a family of single-barrel trap
guns), Model 700 (a family of bolt-action centerfire rifles), Model 870 (a
family of autoloading shotguns), Model 11-87 (a family of semi-automatic
shotguns), Model 7600 (a family of pump-action centerfire rifles), Model 7400 (a
family of semi-automatic centerfire rifles), Wingmaster (a family of pump-action
shotguns) and Model 597 (a family of .22 caliber rimfire rifles). The Company
believes it has adequate policies and procedures in place to protect its
intellectual property.

                                       9
<PAGE>

     The Company owns the Remington marks (and registrations thereof) for use in
its firearms and ammunition product lines, as well as for certain related
products associated with hunting, wildlife and the outdoors.  The Company does
not own, but has the right to use, the Remington mark with respect to certain
other products marketed by it (the "Ancillary Products"), including certain
hunting knives and other merchandising items, pursuant to the Trademark
Settlement Agreement, dated December 5, 1986 (the "Trademark Settlement
Agreement"), between the Company and Remington Products, Inc. ("RPI").  The
Trademark Settlement Agreement resulted from the settlement of certain
litigation between the Company and RPI over the use of the Remington mark on
products marketed by both parties.  RPI is not affiliated with Remington,
Holding, DuPont or Sporting Goods and was not involved with the Acquisition.
The Trademark Settlement Agreement provided for the formation of Remington
Licensing Corporation ("RLC"), the capital stock of which is owned equally by
the Company and Remington Products Company LLC ("RPC") as successor to RPI,
which also holds as transferee RPI's interest in respect of the Trademark
Settlement Agreement.  RLC owns the Remington marks in the United States with
respect to products of mutual interest to the Company and RPC, and licenses such
marks on a royalty-free basis to the Company and RPC for products in their
respective markets.  The Trademark Settlement Agreement does limit, however, the
Company's ability to expand the use of the Remington mark into product areas
claimed by RPC, particularly personal care products.  The Trademark Settlement
Agreement is currently relevant primarily to the Company's U.S. operations, but
does provide for cross-licensing between the Company and RPC outside the United
States.  The Trademark Settlement Agreement also provides that, if certain
bankruptcy or insolvency-related events occur with respect to either of RLC's
shareholders, such shareholder may be contractually required to sell such
shareholder's RLC stock to RLC or RLC's other shareholder at its book value or,
under certain circumstances, at fair market value.  While in some cases such
requirement may not be enforceable under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, such a
purchase from the Company could provide RPC with greater leverage over RLC's
licensing relationship with the Company with respect to Ancillary Products.

     The Company does not own any patents or other intellectual property with
respect to the manufacture of the nylon monofilament fishline products that it
markets and distributes.  The Company purchases most of its fishline
requirements under a supply agreement with DuPont.  See "--Supply of Raw
Materials."

LICENSING

     The Company licenses the Remington mark to certain companies that
manufacture and market products that complement the Company's product line.
Currently, the Remington mark is licensed for use on, among other things,
sporting and outdoor apparel, caps, tents, backpacks, sleeping bags, leather
products, non-prescription sun/safety eyeglasses, and certain other
nostalgia/novelty goods.  The Company strives to ensure that the quality, image
and appeal of these licensed products are consistent with the high-quality image
of its core products.  These licenses generally grant an exclusive right to sell
a specific product category, with the normal term being six years.  Licenses
increase the market recognition of the Remington trademark and enhance the
Company's ability to market core products.  Licensing facilitates new cross-
marketing promotional opportunities and generates income.  Certain of the
Company's licensing efforts are carried out under terms established in the
Trademark Settlement Agreement described above.

COMPETITION

     The markets in which the Company operates are highly competitive.
Competition is based primarily on quality of products, product innovation, price
and customer service and support.  Product image, quality and innovation are the
dominant competitive factors in the firearms industry, with price the dominant
factor in the ammunition industry.

     The Company's competitors vary according to product line.  Certain of these
competitors are subsidiaries of large corporations with substantially greater
financial resources than the Company.  The Company's shotgun products compete
primarily with products offered by USRAC (which produces Winchester firearms)
and Browning (both formerly units of GIAT Industries that were purchased by the
Walloon regional government of Belgium during the fourth quarter of 1997), O.F.
Mossberg & Sons, Inc., Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. and Beretta U.S.A. Corporation.
The Company's rifles compete primarily with products offered by Browning and
USRAC, Marlin Firearms Co., Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. and Savage Arms, Inc.  In
the ammunition market, the Company competes primarily with the Winchester unit
of Olin Corporation, and the Federal Cartridge Co. and CCI units of Blount, Inc.
(Federal Cartridge Co.

                                       10
<PAGE>

was acquired by Blount in November 1997). The Company's main competitor in the
fishing line market is Berkley, Inc.

     The Company believes that it competes effectively with all of its present
competitors.  However, there can be no assurance that the Company will continue
to do so, and the Company's ability to compete could be adversely affected by
its leveraged condition.

SEASONALITY

     Historically, the Company's sales have been moderately seasonal, with
generally higher sales during the third quarter of each year, and generally
lower sales during the other quarters, principally due to the need to meet
customer requirements for firearms and ammunition during the primary hunting
season.

     In 1995 and 1996, the Company's sales were more seasonal than in prior
years.  The Company believes this increased seasonality was due in part to a
shift in the timing of consumer demand as consumer concern over the impact of
regulation on the cost and availability of ammunition and firearms eased, and to
a lesser extent changes in its ammunition prepayment program.  In 1997, the
Company's sales continued to be seasonal, although less so than in 1996.  See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations--Recent Purchasing Patterns; Seasonality."

REGULATION

     The purchase of firearms is subject to federal, state and local
governmental regulation.  The basic federal laws are the National Firearms Act
and the Federal Firearms Act, which were originally enacted in the 1930s and
which have been amended from time to time.  Federal laws generally prohibit the
private ownership of fully automatic weapons and place certain restrictions on
the interstate sale of firearms unless certain licenses are obtained.  The
Company does not manufacture fully automatic weapons.  The Company possesses
valid federal licenses for all of its owned and leased sites to manufacture
and/or sell firearms and ammunition.

     In 1994, a federal law was enacted that generally prohibits the manufacture
of 19 models of "assault weapons" as well as the sale or possession of "assault
weapons" except for those that, prior to the law's enactment into law, were
legally in the owner's possession.  This law exempts from its prohibition
approximately 650 models of firearms that are generally used by hunters and
sporting enthusiasts, including all of the Company's current firearm products.
Various bills have been introduced in Congress in recent years to repeal the ban
on semi-automatic assault weapons and large-capacity ammunition feeding devices;
the likelihood of their passage is uncertain. Another federal law enacted in
1993, the so-called "Brady Bill," provides  among other things for a waiting
period of five business days before a prospective purchaser of a handgun may
take possession of the handgun, in order to give law enforcement officials time
to make a background check on the prospective purchaser.  The Company does not
currently produce handguns.

     In addition, bills have been introduced in Congress in the past several
years that would affect the manufacture and sale of handgun ammunition,
including bills to regulate the manufacture, importation and sale of any
projectile that is capable of penetrating body armor, to impose a tax and import
controls on bullets designed to penetrate bullet-proof vests, to prohibit the
manufacture, transfer or importation of .25 caliber, .32 caliber and 9mm handgun
ammunition, to increase the tax on handgun ammunition, to impose a special
occupational tax and registration requirements on manufacturers of handgun
ammunition, and to drastically increase the tax on certain handgun ammunition,
such as 9mm, .25 caliber, and .32 caliber bullets.  Certain of these bills would
apply to handgun ammunition of the kind produced by the Company, and
accordingly, if enacted, could have a material adverse effect on the business of
the Company.  The Company believes that existing regulations applicable to
handgun ammunition have not had such an effect.

     State and local laws and regulations vary significantly in the level of
restrictions they place on gun ownership and transfer.  Some states have
recently enacted, and others are considering, legislation restricting or
prohibiting the ownership, use or sale of certain categories of firearms and
ammunition.  Many states currently have mandatory waiting period laws for
handguns in effect similar to that imposed by the Brady Bill.  Currently,
however, there are few restrictive state regulations applicable to handgun
ammunition.  The Company's current firearm and ammunition products generally are
not subject to current state restrictions on ownership, use or sale of certain
categories of firearms

                                       11
<PAGE>

and ammunition, and generally would not be subject to any known proposed state
legislation relating to regulation of "assault weapons."

     The Company believes that existing federal and state legislation relating
to the regulation of firearms and ammunition has not had a material adverse
effect on its sales of these products from 1995 through 1997.  See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
However, there can be no assurance that the regulation of firearms and
ammunition will not become more restrictive in the future and that any such
development would not have a material adverse effect on the business of the
Company.

     In addition, regulatory proposals, even if never enacted, may affect
firearms or ammunition sales as a result of consumer perceptions.  The Company
believes that its increased ammunition sales in early 1995 resulted in part from
consumer fear that proposed legislation would increase taxes on ammunition and
from consumer uncertainty over the Brady Bill, and that the lessening of these
consumer concerns has been a factor in decreased ammunition sales since early
1995.  See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations -- Results of Operations."

EMPLOYEES

     As of December 31, 1997, the Company employed approximately 2,400 full-time
employees of whom approximately 400 were salaried and approximately 2,000 were
hourly.  Nearly 2,170 of the Company's employees are engaged in manufacturing,
with approximately 180 engaged in sales and general administration and
approximately 50 in research and development.  An additional work force of
temporary employees is engaged during peak production schedules.  The Company
laid off 220 employees at its Ilion plant, 88 at its Lonoke facility and 18 at
its corporate headquarters during 1996 in response to the decline in sales of
the Company's products during that year.

     The United Mine Workers of America ("UMWA") represent hourly employees at
the Company's plant in Ilion, New York.  The collective bargaining agreement
with UMWA was renegotiated effective September 1997 for a five year period
expiring in September 2002.  The Company also has a labor agreement with Local
366 of the United Automobile, Aircraft and Agricultural Implement Workers of
America, U.A.W., which represents hourly employees at the Company's plant in
Findlay, Ohio, which agreement is terminable by either party on notice.
Employees at the Company's Lonoke, Arkansas and Ada, Oklahoma facilities are not
represented by unions.  There have been no significant interruptions or
curtailments of operations due to labor disputes since prior to 1968 and the
Company believes that relations with its employees are satisfactory.

THE ACQUISITION

     Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, Remington acquired the Business at the
Closing and, in connection therewith, assumed (i) certain specified liabilities,
including certain trade payables and contractual obligations of Sporting Goods,
(ii) financial responsibility up to a maximum aggregate amount of $25 million
(the "Cap"), for certain product liability claims relating to disclosed
occurrences prior to the Closing and for environmental claims relating to the
operation of the Business prior to the Closing and (iii) liabilities for product
liability claims relating to occurrences after the Closing, except for claims
involving discontinued products.  All other liabilities relating to or arising
out of the operation of the Business prior to the Closing are excluded
liabilities (the "Excluded Liabilities") which the Sellers retained and with
respect to which the Sellers have certain obligations to indemnify Remington, as
discussed below.

     The Asset Purchase Agreement requires the Sellers to indemnify Remington
and its affiliates for  inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made
in the Asset Purchase Agreement (environmental matters being addressed
separately), for the Sellers' failure to comply with covenants made in the Asset
Purchase Agreement, and in respect of the Excluded Liabilities, which include,
among other liabilities, certain tax liabilities and certain employee and
retiree compensation and benefit liabilities.  Subject to certain exceptions,
the Sellers' indemnification obligation with respect to inaccuracies in their
representations and warranties is subject to a deductible of $1.5 million and is
limited to individual claims that exceed $25,000.  The Sellers' overall
liability in respect of their representations and warranties, covenants and the
Excluded Liabilities, excluding environmental liabilities and certain product
liability matters of the Company, is limited to an amount equal to the $299.8
million cash portion of the adjusted purchase price for the Acquisition plus $25
million.  With certain exceptions, the Sellers' representations and warranties
in the Asset Purchase Agreement expired 18 months after the Closing, and all
claims for indemnification with respect thereto under the Asset

                                       12
<PAGE>

Purchase Agreement were to have been asserted within 30 days of such expiration.
The Company made claims for such indemnification involving product liability
issues within such time period. See "Legal Proceedings."

     Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, Remington's financial responsibility
for all environmental liabilities relating to the ownership or operation of the
Business prior to the Closing, and for liabilities relating to any product
liability claims arising from occurrences prior to the Closing, was limited to
the Cap, which has been fully utilized.  The Sellers retained all liabilities in
respect of such environmental and product liability matters in excess of such
amount, as well as for all claims relating to discontinued products, and are
required to indemnify Remington with respect thereto. The Sellers are also
required to indemnify Remington for certain other product-related claims for
economic loss.  In addition, pursuant to the separate agreement relating to the
Garza litigation discussed under "Legal Proceedings," the Sellers have agreed to
indemnify Remington against certain product liability costs involving shotguns
and arising from occurrences on or prior to November 30, 1999. These
indemnification obligations of the Sellers relating to product liability and
environmental matters (subject to a limited exception) are not subject to any
survival period limitation, deductible or other dollar threshold or cap.  The
Sellers and Remington are also party to separate agreements setting forth agreed
procedures for the management and disposition of environmental and product
liability claims and proceedings relating to the operation or ownership of the
Business prior to the Closing, and are currently engaged in the joint defense of
certain product liability claims and proceedings.  See "Legal Proceedings."

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

     The Company has in place programs that monitor compliance with various
federal, state and local environmental regulations.  In the normal course of its
manufacturing operations, the Company is subject to occasional governmental
proceedings and orders pertaining to waste disposal, air emissions and water
discharges into the environment.  The Company believes that it is in compliance
with applicable environmental regulations in all material respects, and that the
outcome of any such proceedings and orders will not have a material adverse
effect on its business.

     The Company also has directed research efforts to developing more
environmentally safe products.  In particular, recent efforts to eliminate the
promulgation of lead into the environment have led to local prohibitions on
traditional lead shot shotshells in waterfowl hunting and have also forced the
closing of several prominent target shooting clubs.  The Company has responded
to these concerns by adding steel shot shotshells to its product line for
hunters, by introducing steel target shooting ammunition and frangible pistol
ammunition.

     The Company has not been identified by any state or federal regulatory
authorities as a potentially responsible party (a "PRP") with respect to any
sites under any applicable state or federal environmental regulations.  The
Sellers retained liability for environmental losses and liabilities relating to
the ownership or operation of the Business prior to the Closing that, together
with liabilities relating to product liability cases and claims arising from
occurrences prior to the Closing and disclosed to the Company, exceed the Cap,
which was exhausted in 1997, as discussed under "Legal Proceedings."  The
Sellers applied approximately $0.5 million of the Cap to environmental cases.
Based on information known to the Company, the Company does not expect current
environmental regulations or environmental proceedings and claims to have a
material adverse effect on the results of operations or financial condition of
the Company.  However, it is not possible to predict with certainty the impact
on the Company of future environmental compliance requirements or of the cost of
resolution of future environmental proceedings and claims, in part because the
scope of the remedies that may be required is not certain, liability under
federal environmental laws is joint and several in nature, and environmental
laws and regulations are subject to modification and changes in interpretation.
There can be no assurance that environmental regulation will not become more
burdensome in the future and that any such development would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 2.   PROPERTIES

     The Company's manufacturing operations are currently conducted at five
owned facilities.  The following table sets forth certain information regarding
each of these facilities:

</TABLE>

     The Company believes that these facilities are suitable for the
manufacturing conducted therein and have capacities appropriate to meet existing
production requirements.  In February 1997, the Company completed construction
of the Mayfield, Kentucky facility, at which the Company began manufacturing
rimfire rifles in April 1997, which will allow for expansion of sales in this
product line.  The Lonoke, Ilion and Mayfield facilities each contain enclosed
ranges for testing firearms and ammunition.

     The Company's headquarters and related operations are conducted in an
office building owned by the Company in Madison, North Carolina.  Research and
development is conducted at a facility owned by the Company in Elizabethtown,
Kentucky.  All of the real property owned by the Company has been mortgaged to
secure the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement.  The Company also
leases or contracts for services from various warehouses and is a party to a
leasing arrangement involving a facility operated by a Company contractor.

ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Sellers retained liability
for, and are required to indemnify the Company against, (1) all product
liability cases and claims (whenever they may arise) involving discontinued
products and (2) all product liability cases and claims involving products that
had not been discontinued as of the Closing ("extant products") and relating to
occurrences that took place, but were not disclosed to the Company, prior to the
Closing.  The Company assumed financial responsibility, up to the Cap in an
aggregate amount of $25.0 million, for (1) product liability cases and claims
involving extant products and relating to occurrences that took place, and were
disclosed to the Company, prior to the Closing, and (2) any environmental
liabilities relating to the ownership or operation of the Business prior to the
Closing.  The Sellers retained liability for, and are required to indemnify the
Company against, all such disclosed product liability occurrences and such
environmental liabilities in excess of the Cap.  This indemnification obligation
of the Sellers is not subject to any survival period limitation.  Pursuant to
the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Sellers designated $24.5 million of the Cap
for assumed product liability costs and the remainder for environmental costs.
In December 1996, the Company and the Sellers resolved questions that had been
raised by the Sellers concerning certain product liability related costs that
the Company had allocated to the Cap or that were billed to cases for which the
Sellers assumed responsibility under the Asset Purchase Agreement.  As a result
of this agreement between the Sellers and the Company, the Company recorded a
nonrecurring charge of $4.7 million. This charge in effect increased the product
liability portion of the Cap from $24.5 million to $28.4 million.  In 1997, the
remaining Cap was exhausted.  See Note 15 to the Company's consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1997 appearing elsewhere in
this Report. Except for certain cases and claims relating to shotguns as
described below and for all cases and claims relating to discontinued products,
the Company generally bears financial responsibility for product liability cases
and claims relating to occurrences after the Closing. Because of the nature of
firearm and ammunition products, the Company anticipates that it, as well as
other manufacturers of firearm or ammunition products, will continue to be
involved in product liability cases and claims in the future.

     Prior to the Acquisition, the Sellers were self-insured for product
liability obligations of the Business, with excess insurance coverage available
at $50.0 million per occurrence.  Since December 1, 1993, the Company has
maintained insurance coverage for product liability claims subject to certain
self-insured retentions both on a per-occurrence basis and in the aggregate for
personal injury or property

                                       14
<PAGE>

damage relating to occurrences arising after the Closing. The Company believes
that its current product liability insurance coverage for personal injury and
property damage is adequate for its needs. The Company's current product
liability insurance policy provides for a self-insured retention of $0.5 million
per occurrence, with an aggregate annual limit of $7.0 million for liability
indemnity and defense and other expenses combined, and aggregate annual
sublimits of $4.5 million for indemnity and $4.5 million for expenses. The
current policy has a batch clause endorsement, which in general provides that if
a batch of firearms were to be defective, the Company's liability for expenses
and damages related to the entire batch would be capped at the amount of self-
insured retention for a single occurrence. The current policy excludes from
coverage any pollution-related liability. The current policy period runs from
December 1, 1995 through November 30, 2000.

     The Company and the Sellers are engaged in the joint defense of product
liability litigation involving Remington brand firearms and Company ammunition
products.  As of December 31, 1997, approximately 30 such cases were pending,
primarily alleging defective product design or manufacture, or failure to
provide adequate warnings. All but two of these cases are individual actions
alleging personal injury, and many seek punitive as well as compensatory
damages. Of these pending individual cases, approximately 3 involve discontinued
products and approximately 3 involve undisclosed pre-Closing occurrences.
Accordingly, these are cases for which the Sellers retained liability and are
required to indemnify the Company for the full amount.  In addition,
approximately 3 of the pending cases are subject to the Cap and are cases for
which the Sellers retained liability and are required to indemnify the Company
for amounts in excess of the Cap.  The remaining approximately 19 of the pending
cases involve post-Closing occurrences for which the Company bears
responsibility under the Asset Purchase Agreement.  The Company has previously
disposed of a number of other cases involving post-Closing occurrences by
settlement.

     Two cases, Leonel Garza et al. v. Sporting Goods Properties, Inc., et al.
("Garza") and  Joe Luna, et al. v. Remington Arms Company, Inc. and E. I. du
Pont de Nemours and Company et al. ("Luna"), which were pending at the time of
the Closing, and for which the Company assumed financial responsibility up to
the amount of the Cap, were asserted as class actions, one involving shotguns
and the other bolt-action rifles.  In each case certification was sought of a
class of owners of Remington brand firearms, generally claiming economic loss
based on alleged product defect, and seeking compensatory, punitive and treble
damages, plus other costs.

     On February 6, 1996, the Court in San Antonio, Texas gave final approval to
a settlement of the Garza class action relating to Remington brand shotguns, and
that decision has become final and non-appealable. The Garza case involved
certain Remington brand 12-gauge shotguns manufactured from 1960 to 1995,
including Model 1100, 11-87 and 870 shotguns.  Pursuant to the settlement, funds
of approximately $19.0 million were distributed to eligible shotgun owners in
the second quarter of 1997.  The disposition of any unclaimed funds is expected
to be decided in 1998. Except for a few class members who have opted out, the
settlement resolves all claims that might be brought by owners of the shotguns
at issue in connection with the barrel steel formerly used in such firearms,
other than claims for personal injury. Publicity regarding the Garza agreement
led, and may continue to lead, to some additional claims of personal injury
allegedly involving use of the shotguns included in the class action lawsuit.
The Company does not believe that the disposition of Garza (including any
individual personal injury actions which might be filed as a result of the
settlement) is likely to have a material adverse effect upon its financial
condition or results of operations.

     The other purported class action, Luna, filed in 1989 against the Sellers
in Texas district court in Jim Wells County, and amended in December 1993 and
again in July 1996, sought certification of a class consisting of all Texas
owners, allegedly 400,000 in number, of Model 700 bolt-action rifles. In June
1996, the district court issued a ruling that certified for class treatment the
limited issues of whether the Model 700 fire control system is "defective" and,
if so, the "cost of repair."  Pursuant to Texas law, the Sellers filed a timely
appeal of this ruling to the intermediate level state appellate court, and oral
argument was held on June 19, 1997. Remington was not named as a defendant until
July 1996, after the class certification was appealed, and was not a party to
the appeal.  On July 16, 1996 plaintiffs further amended the complaint to
include Remington and a hearing in the district court on the class certification
motion against Remington took place on June 9, 1997.  Holding has not been named
as a defendant in this case.  On February 11, 1998, the Texas appellate court
reversed the trial court's decision certifying the class against the Sellers, on
the ground that class treatment was not a superior method for resolving disputes
relating to the plaintiffs' alleged losses.  One judge dissented from this
holding.  Although Remington was not a party to the appeal, the appellate
court's decision should govern class action claims against it as well as the
claims against the Sellers.  Plaintiffs have filed a motion requesting a
rehearing.  If that request is denied, the plaintiffs have 30 days thereafter to
seek review by the Texas Supreme Court. The Sellers' obligations with respect to
Luna include a requirement that they indemnify the Company against claims for
economic loss involving Model 700 rifles  shipped up to 42 calendar months after
the Closing (prior to the end of May 1997). Claims of economic loss involving
Model 700 rifles thereafter would be the Company's responsibility and, to

                                       15
<PAGE>

the extent that such claims do not involve personal injury or property damage,
they would not be covered by the Company's product liability insurance.

     The representations and warranties in the Asset Purchase Agreement expired
18 months after the Closing, with certain exceptions, and claims for
indemnification with respect thereto were to be made within 30 days of such
expiration.  The Company made claims for such indemnification involving product
liability issues within that time period.  In connection with the consummation
of the Garza settlement, the Company and the Sellers agreed that the Sellers
shall assume financial responsibility for a portion of the costs relating to
product liability claims and cases involving certain shotguns manufactured prior
to mid-1995 and based on occurrences arising prior to November 30, 1999, and
that any claims the Company and the Sellers may have against each other under
the Asset Purchase Agreement relating to shotguns (excluding various
indemnification rights and the allocation of certain costs under the Cap) are
released.  Any claims between the Company and the Sellers relating to other
product liability issues remain open.

     Because the Company's assumption of financial responsibility for certain
product liability cases and claims involving pre-Acquisition occurrences was
limited to the amount of the Cap, with the Sellers retaining liability in excess
of the Cap and indemnifying the Company in respect thereof, and because of the
Company's accruals with respect to such cases and claims, the Company believes
that product liability cases and claims involving occurrences arising prior to
the Closing are not likely to have a material adverse effect upon the financial
condition or results of operations of the Company.  While it is difficult to
forecast the outcome of litigation, the Company does not believe, in light of
relevant circumstances (including the current availability of insurance for
personal injury and property damage with respect to cases and claims involving
occurrences arising after the Closing, the Company's accruals for the uninsured
costs of such cases and claims and the Sellers' agreement to be responsible for
certain post-Closing firearm-related costs, as described above), that the
outcome of all pending product liability cases and claims will be likely to have
a material adverse effect upon the financial condition or results of operations
of the Company.  However, in part because of the uncertainty as to the nature
and extent of manufacturer liability for personal injury due to alleged product
defects, there can be no assurance that the Company's resources will be adequate
to cover future product liability occurrences, cases or claims, in the
aggregate, or that such a material adverse effect will not result therefrom.


ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         No matter was submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders during
the fourth quarter of 1997.

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

     There is no established public trading market for either Holding's or
Remington's common stock.  Prior to 1997, the only holder of Holding's common
stock was The Clayton & Dubilier Private Equity Fund IV Limited Partnership
("C&D Fund IV").  On August 25, 1997 Holding filed a registration statement on
Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register 12,500 shares
of Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of holding for issuance in
accordance with the RACI Holding, Inc. Director Stock Purchase Plan.  As of
December 31, 1997, a total of 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock had been
issued to four directors.  See "Ownership of Capital Stock."  The only holder of
Remington's common stock is Holding.  No dividends have been paid by Holding on
its shares of common stock nor does Holding expect to pay dividends on its
common stock in the foreseeable future.  As Holding has no separate operations,
its ability to pay dividends is dependent upon the extent to which it receives
dividends or other funds from Remington. The declaration and payment of future
dividends, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of
the respective company, subject to the restrictions set forth in the Company's
senior bank credit agreement and the indenture for its subordinated notes, which
currently restrict the payment of cash dividends to stockholders, and
restrictions, if any, imposed by other indebtedness outstanding from time to
time.  See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations --Liquidity and Capital Resources," " --Credit Agreement"
and " --Notes" and Note 13 to the Company's consolidated financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 1997 appearing elsewhere in this Report.

ITEM 6.  SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     The following table sets forth certain selected financial information
derived from the Company's consolidated financial statements for the five year
period ended December 31, 1997.  The financial information for the five-year
period ended December 31, 1997 has been derived from the Company's consolidated
financial statements as audited by its independent accountants Coopers & Lybrand
L.L.P.  The balance sheet and statement of operations information as of and for
the eleven-month period ended November 30, 1993, relate to the businesses
conducted through Sporting Goods prior to the Acquisition.  The consolidated
balance sheet and consolidated income statement information as of and for the
one-month period ended December 31, 1993 and as of and for the four years ended
December 31, 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1997,  respectively, relate to Remington and
its operations.  Generally, the comparability of the Company's results of
operations for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, 1995 and 1994 and the
one-month period ended December 31, 1993, to its results of operations for the
eleven-month period ended November 30, 1993 are significantly limited because of
the effects of the Acquisition.  The table should be read in conjunction with
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations," and the Company's consolidated financial statements and related
notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this Report.

(FOOTNOTES)
______________
(a)  Sales are presented net of federal excise taxes.  Excise taxes were $28.8
     for the eleven-month period ended November 30, 1993 and $1.4 million for
     the one-month period ended December 31, 1993, $33.7 million, $36.0 million,
     $31.7 million and $31.0 million for the years ended December 31, 1994,
     1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

(b)  Property and payroll taxes of $6.6 million for the eleven-month period
     ended November 30, 1993 and $0.4 million for the one-month period ended
     December 31, 1993, $7.1 million, $7.4 million and $6.6 million for the
     years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively, have been
     reclassified from operating expenses to cost of goods sold to conform with
     the current presentation format.

(c)  Effective January 1, 1993 the Company adopted Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.  106, "Employers' Accounting for
     Postretirement Benefits (an amendment of FASB Statements No.  5 and 43)."
     The Company recorded charges of $74.1 million to its net income for the
     eleven-month period ended November 30, 1993 for the cumulative effect of
     transition to this new standard.

(d)  For purposes of computing this ratio, earnings consists of earnings before
     income taxes and fixed charges, excluding capitalized interest. Fixed
     charges consists of interest expense, capitalized interest, amortization of
     discount on indebtedness and one-third of rental expense (the portion
     deemed representative of the interest factor). Earnings were inadequate to
     cover fixed charges for the year ended December 31, 1996, the eleven-month
     period ended November 30, 1993 and the one-month period ended December 31,
     1993 by $22.6 million, $72.1 million and $3.6 million, respectively.
     However, excluding the impact of the $74.1 million cumulative effect of an
     accounting change noted above, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for
     the eleven month period ended November 30, 1993 would have been 1.4x.

(e)  EBITDA as presented is calculated in accordance with the definition of that
     term contained in the Company's Credit Agreement, and may not be comparable
     to similar measures reported by other companies. Generally, the Credit
     Agreement defines EBITDA to consist of net income (loss) adjusted to
     exclude cash interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation,
     amortization, non-cash expenses and charges, gain or loss on sale or write-
     off of assets, and extraordinary, unusual or nonrecurring gains, losses,
     charges or credits. EBITDA, and the Ratio of EBITDA to Interest Expense,
     are presented to facilitate a more complete analysis of the Company's
     financial performance, by adding back non-cash and nonrecurring items to
     operating income, as an indicator of the Company's ability to generate cash
     to service debt and other fixed obligations. Investors should not rely on
     EBITDA as an alternative to operating income or cash flows, as determined
     in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as an
     indicator of the Company's operating performance, liquidity or ability to
     meet cash needs. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
     Condition and Results of Operations" for further discussion of the
     Company's operating income and cash flows.

(f)  Represents EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

(g)  Excludes amortization of deferred financing costs of $1.7 million, $1.6
     million, $1.5 million and $1.7 million in 1997, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
     respectively, which is included in interest expense.

(h)  Non-cash charges consist of a pension accrual of $3.2 million and $0.5
     million loss on disposal of assets in 1997, an Acquisition-related
     inventory charge of $16.8 million in 1994 and $2.5 million in the one month
     ended December 31, 1993.

(i)  Nonrecurring and restructuring expenses excluded in calculating EBITDA
     consist of the following: (1) for 1997, $0.8 million of unusual and
     nonrecurring charges; (2) for 1996, $4.9 million in restructuring charges,
     a $4.7 million nonrecurring charge related to resolving a dispute with the
     Sellers, and $1.6 million for corporate relocation and employee retraining;
     (3) for 1995, $2.8 million in nonrecurring charges for computer system
     implementation and $1.0  million for corporate relocation, net of a $1.0
     million nonrecurring research and development-related benefit; and (4) for
     1994, $2.3 million for relocating and consolidating the Company's research
     and development function, $1.8 million in nonrecurring charges for computer
     system implementation, and $0.3 million for discontinuing the Company's
     apparel business.

(j)  The Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is a financial measure used in
     the Indenture to determine when the Company can incur certain kinds of new
     debt and engage in certain other transactions.  It measures the ratio of
     (a) the sum of Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated Interest Expense,
     Consolidated Income Tax Expense and Consolidated Non-Cash Charges
     (including depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges) deducted
     in computing Consolidated Net Income (Loss), all determined in accordance
     with GAAP, to (b) the sum of Consolidated Interest Expense and cash
     dividends paid, if any, on any Preferred Stock, as each of these terms is
     defined in the Indenture.  Generally, the principal difference between the
     Ratio of EBITDA to Interest Expense and the Consolidated Fixed Charge
     Coverage Ratio arises from the exclusion of nonrecurring and restructuring
     expenses in calculating EBITDA.

(k)  Total debt consists of long-term debt, current portion of long-term debt,
     and capital lease commitments.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the "Selected Financial Information" and the Company's consolidated financial
statements and related notes and the other financial information appearing
elsewhere in this Report.

OVERVIEW

General
-------

     The following discussion and analysis relates to Holding, its subsidiary
Remington, and Remington's wholly owned subsidiary, Remington International,
Ltd., on a consolidated basis.  Holding has virtually no operations and its only
significant asset is its investment in Remington.

     The Company operates in one industry segment, and its sales are derived
primarily from two sources: sales of firearm products and sales of ammunition
products.  These two product lines accounted for approximately 86% of the
Company's sales in 1997 and 87% of the Company's sales in 1996 and 1995.  Other
Company product lines include firearm-related accessories, clay targets,
fishline and related fishline accessories.

Business Trends and Initiatives
-------------------------------

     The Company believes that several of its key customers instituted tighter
inventory control practices to reduce inventory levels during 1996.  The Company
also believes that during 1997 additional key customers began to institute
tighter inventory control practices by delaying purchases until product was
needed to fill orders. This continued shift in customer buying patterns resulted
in a modest softness in demand for the Company's products during 1996 and 1997.
Although tighter inventory control practices have caused, and are likely to
continue to cause, the Company to experience increased liquidity and working
capital requirements to meet customers' shorter lead time order requirements,
management believes that demand will stabilize as customers' inventories reach
their targeted levels.

     The Company began its 1997 sales plan year on December 1, 1996 rather than
on January 1, 1997. This change in the sales plan year extended the qualifying
period for the early order or "dating" plan by one month to include December
orders which, the Company believes, had the effect of reducing orders for
firearms products in the first quarter of 1997.  The 1998 sales plan year began
on December 1, 1997.

     The Company believes that consumer concerns about regulation, which were a
factor in market growth in 1994 and early 1995, will not be a significant market
influence in the near term.  In part as a result of this change, the Company
believes that the markets for its firearms and ammunition products generally
will remain relatively flat, at least in the near future.

     In light of these market constraints on sales growth opportunities and the
Company's increased liquidity and working capital needs, the Company continues
to focus on increasing profitability by increasing brand name

                                       20

awareness, introducing new products and containing costs. In 1996, the Company
undertook a number of cost containment initiatives, strengthened the management
team and improved operating efficiencies at the manufacturing facilities. The
majority of the benefits from the 1996 restructuring initiatives were realized
in 1997. During 1997 the Company's management team continued to focus on
controlling costs. The Company will continue to review all aspects of the
Company's operations with a view towards managing costs in response to
competitive pressures.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following table shows, for the periods indicated, the percentage
relationships to sales of certain selected financial data.  Management's
discussion and analysis of the Company's results of operations compares 1997 to
1996 results, and 1996 to 1995 results.

Year Ended December 31, 1997 as Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1996
------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Sales.  Sales for year ended December 31, 1997 were $381.2 million, a
     -----
decrease of $9.2 million, or 2%, from 1996 sales of $390.4 million. The decline
in sales was primarily due to lower demand for the Company's firearms products.
The Company believes the decline in demand for firearms was primarily due to a
continued tightening of inventories by customers. See "Results of Operations --
Business Trends and Initiatives."

     Firearms sales decreased $8.7 million, or 5%, to $169.5 million for the
year ended December 31, 1997 from $178.2 million in 1996.  The Company believes
the decrease was primarily the result of customers' tighter inventory management
practices which created a modest softness in demand for firearms products
partially offset by increased prices.  Firearms sales for 1997 were also
affected by the change in the Company's 1997 sales plan year, which adversely
impacted first quarter sales as discussed above.

     Ammunition sales for 1997 were $159.3 million, a decrease of $0.9 million,
or less than 1% reduction from 1996 sales of $160.2 million.  The decrease in
ammunition sales was primarily due to a slight change in the mix of products
sold.

     Sales of fishing products increased in 1997 from 1996, primarily due to
increased sales volumes as a result of better product placement and the
introduction of new products. Sales of accessory products also increased in 1997
in comparison to the prior year, primarily due to higher sales volumes resulting
from new product introductions.

                                       21
<PAGE>

     Cost of Goods Sold.  Cost of goods sold for 1997 was $269.9 million, a
     ------------------
decrease of $11.8 million, or 4%, versus $281.7 million for 1996.  This decrease
resulted principally from the corresponding decrease in sales discussed above
combined with lower manufacturing costs.  The Company's manufacturing costs were
lower than the prior year primarily as a result of management's emphasis on
controlling costs and improving efficiencies coupled with the positive effects
of lead and copper price decreases on the cost of raw materials in the
ammunition business.  These reductions in manufacturing costs were partially
offset by start-up costs at the Company's facility in Mayfield.  Cost of goods
sold as a percentage of sales decreased between the two periods from 72% in 1996
to 71% in 1997.

     Gross Profit.  Gross profit was $111.3 million for 1997, an increase of
     ------------
$2.6 million, or 2%, from 1996 gross profit of $108.7 million.  The increase in
gross profit was primarily due to lower manufacturing costs as previously
discussed and increased prices on the Company's firearms products, partially
offset by lower sales volume in the Company's firearms business and, to a lesser
extent, start-up costs at the Mayfield facility.

     Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses consist of selling, general and
     ------------------
administrative expenses; research and development expense; and other expense.
Operating expenses for 1997 were $78.7 million, a decrease of $16.1 million, or
17%, from $94.8 million for 1996 for the reasons set forth below.  Property and
payroll taxes of $6.6 million for 1996 have been reclassified from operating
expenses to cost of goods sold to conform with the current presentation format.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for 1997 were $71.2 million, a
decrease of $11.6 million, or 14%, from $82.8 million for 1996.  The decrease
between the two periods was primarily attributable to lower expenditures as a
result of the restructuring in 1996 and 1997, tighter controls over
discretionary spending during 1997, a reduction in bad debt expense and reduced
product liability expense.  Bad debt expense in 1997 was lower than 1996 due to
improved credit procedures and favorable collection of accounts receivable with
significant recoveries of previously reserved receivables.   Selling, general
and administrative expenses decreased from 21% of sales in 1996 to 19% of sales
in 1997 primarily as a result of the reduction in costs discussed above.

     Research and development expenses were $7.4 million for 1997, a $2.8
million, or 27% decrease from $10.2 million in 1996.  The decrease in research
and development expenses was primarily a result of a more focused approach
toward spending on research and development activities.

     Operating Profit.  Operating profit increased to $32.6 million for 1997, an
     ----------------
increase of $28.3 million from 1996's operating profit of $4.3 million.
Operating profit for 1996, however, included a restructuring charge of  $9.6
million recognized when the Company reduced production levels, plant overhead
expenses and other costs to correspond with current sales volumes, and
reorganized the international marketing efforts. Excluding this restructuring
charge from 1996, operating profit increased from $13.9 million for 1996 to
$32.6 million for 1997 primarily as a result of decreases in operating expenses
and higher gross profit as discussed above.

     Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 1997
     ----------------
was $23.6 million, a decrease of $1.5 million, or 6%, from the 1996 level of
$25.1 million.  The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower term
debt levels resulting from scheduled debt repayments, and to a lesser extent,
lower average borrowings on the Company's revolving credit facility (the
"Revolving Credit Facility") under its senior bank credit agreement (as amended,
the "Credit Agreement") and a reduction in the interest rate on the Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2003, Series B from 10% to 9.5% effective June 23, 1997.

     Net Income / Loss.  Net income for 1997 was $5.5 million, an increase of
     -----------------
$19.3 million from 1996 net loss of $13.8 million.   However, excluding the
restructuring and nonrecurring charges from 1996 results, net income for 1997
increased $13.5 million over the 1996 net loss of  $8.0 million.  The increase
in net income was due primarily to the factors discussed above.

Year Ended December 31, 1996 as Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1995
------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Sales.  Sales for the year ended December 31, 1996 were $390.4 million,
     -----
which was $36.6 million, or 9%, lower than 1995 sales of $427.0 million.  The
decline in sales was primarily due to lower demand for the Company's firearms
products and ammunition products, partially offset by increased sales of
accessories products and higher firearms prices. The Company believes the
decline in demand in 1996 was primarily due to several key customers,

                                       22
<PAGE>

including Wal-Mart, instituting tighter inventory control practices to reduce
inventory levels. These changes had the effect of reducing the Company's sales
of new firearms and ammunition products during 1996 in comparison to 1995.

     Firearms sales decreased $24.4 million or 12% to $178.2 million for the
year ended December 31, 1996 from $202.6 million in 1995. The decrease was
primarily due to decreased sales of the Company's less expensive shotguns and
rifles, partially offset by increased sales of black powder guns and higher
firearms prices.  The Company believes that lower demand for its less expensive
shotguns and rifles is due to tighter inventory management practices by several
key customers, which are the Company's primary customers for such less expensive
firearms.

     Ammunition sales for 1996 were $160.2 million, $13.6 million, or 8%, lower
than 1995 sales of $173.8 million.  The Company believes that the sales decline
for 1996 was primarily due to the changes in customers' inventory management
practices discussed above.  In addition, the Company believes that the first
quarter of 1995 was an exceptional quarter and represented a continuation of the
strong market for ammunition experienced in 1994, and that a portion of the
decline between the two years was due to the exceptional results in the first
quarter of 1995.

     Fishline product sales decreased between 1995 and 1996 primarily due to
lower volumes and prices.  Sales of accessory products increased primarily due
to increased sales of gun safes.

     Cost of Goods Sold.  Cost of goods sold for 1996 was $281.7 million, a
     -------------------
decrease of $11.0 million, or 4%, versus $292.7 million for 1995.  Cost of goods
sold increased between the two periods as a percentage of sales from 69% in 1995
to 72% in 1996. Cost of goods sold increased as a percentage of sales primarily
due to lower sales volumes of both firearms and ammunition products and higher
manufacturing costs in the Company's firearms business.  Increased costs
associated with production line changes to meet increased demand for centerfire
rifles, price increases on purchased parts, and costs related to the lengthening
of the traditional end-of-year shutdown period, were the primary factors
contributing to the higher overall manufacturing costs.

     Gross Profit.  Gross profit was $108.7 million for 1996, a decrease of
     -------------
$25.6 million, or 19%, from 1995 gross profit of $134.3 million.  Gross profit
margins declined from 31% in 1995 to 28% in 1996 as a percentage of sales. The
decrease in gross profit dollars between the two periods was related to lower
sales volume in the Company's firearms and ammunition businesses and the higher
firearms manufacturing costs as discussed above, partially offset by higher
pricing on the Company's firearms products.

     Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses consist of selling, general and
     -------------------
administrative expenses; research and development expense; and other expense.
Operating expenses in 1996 were $94.8 million, an increase of $2.0 million, or
2%, from $92.8 million for 1995.  This increase resulted from a $4.9 million
increase in research and development expenses and a $1.6 million increase in
other income and expenses, partially offset by a $4.5 million decrease in
selling, general and administrative expenses.  Property and payroll taxes of
$6.6 million for 1996 and $7.4 million for 1995 have been reclassified from
operating expenses to cost of goods sold to conform with the current
presentation format.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses for 1996 were $82.8 million, a
decrease of $4.5 million, or 5%, from $87.3 million in 1995. The decrease in
expenses between the periods was primarily the result of a reduction in bad debt
expense, reduced marketing expenditures, lower incentive compensation charges,
and elimination of transitional service fees charged by DuPont for systems and
services provided prior to implementation of the Company's new computer system
during the second quarter of 1995. Bad debt expense was lower in 1996 than 1995
due to increased efforts in the collection and resolution of disputed amounts.
These decreases were partially offset by continued costs associated with the
implementation of a new computer system and higher outside professional fees.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 20% of sales in 1995
to 21% of sales in 1996 primarily as a result of the lower sales discussed
above.

     Research and development expenses were $10.2 million for 1996, an increase
of $4.9 million, from $5.3 million in 1995. Research and development expenses
for 1995, however, include a benefit of $1.0 million as the actual relocation
costs for the Company's consolidation of its research and development function
into a new facility in Elizabethtown, Kentucky were less than estimated.
Excluding the nonrecurring benefit from 1995, research and development expense
increased $3.9 million.  This increase was primarily due to the Company's
strategy to increase

                                       23
<PAGE>

spending on new product development and the effect of full period operations of
the new research and development facility on 1996 results.

     Restructuring and Nonrecurring Items. The Company recorded charges for
     -------------------------------------
restructuring in 1996 of $4.9 million.  The restructuring was undertaken to
reduce production levels, plant overhead expenses and other costs to correspond
with current sales volumes, and to reorganize the Company's international
marketing efforts.  The company-wide plan resulted in reductions of
approximately 325 salaried, hourly and bargaining unit employees during the
year.  The charges incurred include estimated costs for employee severance and
other benefits of $3.2 million, lease costs of $0.7 million and other expenses
of $1.0 million.

  In December 1996, the Company and the Sellers resolved questions that had been
raised by the Sellers concerning certain product liability related costs that
the Company had allocated to the Cap or that were billed to cases for which the
Sellers assumed responsibility under the Asset Purchase Agreement. As a result
of this agreement between the Sellers and the Company, the Company recorded a
nonrecurring charge of $4.7 million.  See "Legal  Proceedings."

  Operating Profit. Operating profit declined to $4.3 million for 1996, a $37.2
  -----------------
million or 90% decrease from 1995's operating profit of $41.5 million, primarily
due to lower gross profit and the impact of restructuring and nonrecurring
items, as discussed above.

     Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the year ended December  31, 1996
     ----------------
was $25.1 million, an increase of $3.6 million, or 17%, from the 1995 level of
$21.5 million.  The increase in interest expense was primarily due to additional
borrowings on the Company's Revolving Credit Facility and slightly higher
interest rates on the Company's term loan and revolving credit borrowings,
partially offset by lower interest on the Company's term loan borrowings due to
scheduled debt repayments.

     Net Income / Loss.  Net loss for 1996 was $13.8 million, a decrease of
     ------------------
$25.3 million from 1995 net income of $11.5 million. However, excluding the
restructuring and nonrecurring charges from 1996 results, net loss was $8.0
million for 1996 compared to net income of $11.5 million for 1995, decreasing
$19.5 million.

TAXES

  The Company's balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 includes net deferred tax
assets in the amount of $22.4 million.  See Note 16 to the Company's
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1997 appearing
elsewhere in this Report.  Excluding the $13.7 million of deferred tax assets
related to postretirement benefits, the Company must generate approximately $23
million in future taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.  The
postretirement benefits asset is not expected to reverse for approximately 20
years.  Management expects that the Company will generate sufficient taxable
income in future periods to fully utilize all deferred tax assets.  Accordingly,
the Company has not established a valuation allowance against the net deferred
tax assets.

     The Company's effective tax rate for 1997 of 39% is higher than the Federal
statutory rate due principally to the impact of state income taxes and certain
non-deductible expenses.  At December 31, 1997, the Company had a $15.0 million
net operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes that expires in 2011.
The Company's effective tax rate for 1996 was 33.7% which approximates the
Federal statutory rate.  The Company's effective tax rate for 1995 of 42.5% is
higher than the Federal statutory rate due principally to the impact of state
income taxes and certain non-deductible expenses.

     Holding and Remington file a consolidated return for Federal income tax
purposes.  As a result of the Acquisition, the Company's Federal income tax
basis for its assets approximates the fair market value of those assets on the
Acquisition date.  The excess of the sum of the adjusted purchase price, assumed
liabilities and capitalizable and deductible acquisition costs over the
aggregate tax basis of such assets will generally be amortizable over 15 years
and deductible for Federal income tax purposes.  Such amortization deductions,
other deductions resulting from the adjusted tax basis for such assets, and
deductions for interest on the Company's indebtedness will reduce the Company's
taxable income for periods after the Acquisition.

RECENT PURCHASING PATTERNS; SEASONALITY

     The Company's firearms products that are generally used during the fall
hunting season may be purchased under an early order or "dating" plan.  Under
the dating plan, the Company allows a distributor to purchase these products
commencing in December, the start of the Company's dating plan year, and to pay
for them on extended terms. Discounts are offered for early payment under this
plan.  Discounts amounting to $3.6 million, $4.6 million and $4.1 million were
given in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The Company believes that allowing
extended payment terms for early orders helps to level out the demand for these
otherwise seasonal products throughout the year. Historically, use of  the
dating plan has had the effect of shifting some firearms sales from the second
and third quarters to the first quarter.  The Company believes that the dating
plan helps facilitate a more efficient manufacturing schedule. Use of the dating
plan, however, also results in significant deferral of collection of accounts
receivable until the latter part of the year.

     The Company had a separate program in 1996 and 1995 prior to shipment, now
discontinued, that provided an incentive to prepay for ammunition purchases
prior to shipment. While the Company believes that allowing both extended
payment terms for early orders and discounts for prepayment helps to level out
the demand for these otherwise seasonal products throughout the year, the
Company discontinued the ammunition prepayment program effective with the 1997
sales year in response to competitive actions. The Company is selling the
majority of its ammunition products on terms of 90 days or less and offering
discounts for earlier payments. Effective with the 1998 sales year, an early
order program was instituted which allows customers an additional 30 days to pay
for ammunition purchased prior to April 1, 1998.

     As a result of the seasonal nature of the Company's sales, combined with
the Company's dating plan billing practices, the Company's working capital
financing needs generally have significantly exceeded cash provided by
operations during the middle of a year, until its deferred accounts receivable
were collected in the third and fourth quarters.  As a result, the Company's
working capital financing needs tend to be greatest during the spring and summer
months, decreasing during the fall and reaching their lowest point during the
winter.  See "Business -- Seasonality."

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows
----------

     The Company's operating activities provided cash of $55.9 million for the
year ended December 31, 1997 primarily as a result of net income adjusted for
non-cash items and improved management of working capital. Accounts receivable
decreased  $14.8 million to $56.3 million and inventories decreased $11.9
million to $90.0 million primarily as a result of the Company's ongoing working
capital management program to help maximize cash from operations.  Net cash used
in investing activities in 1997 was $5.8 million consisting of capital
expenditures for maintenance of operations and improvement projects concentrated
on enhancing the efficiency of existing facilities as well as investment in the
Company's new manufacturing facility in Mayfield, Kentucky.  Net cash used in
financing activities in 1997 was $59.1 million, primarily resulting from $20.8
million in principal payments on outstanding indebtedness (including capital
leases) and a net repayment of $39.1 million on the Revolving Credit Facility.
Cash flow from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1997 was
sufficient to fund the Company's capital expenditure program, scheduled
principal payments on outstanding indebtedness and a significant reduction in
amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

     Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1996
was $2.7 million, resulting primarily from elimination of the Company's
ammunition prepayment program as discussed above, nonrecurring cash payments
(consisting primarily of $4.7 million for the relocation of the Company's
corporate headquarters and $1.5 million in restructuring costs) and an increase
in inventories (as a result of lower demand for the Company's products) in
response to which the Company undertook a number of cost containment
initiatives.  See "Results of Operations-- Business Trends and Initiatives."
These uses of cash were substantially offset by extended payment terms which the
Company negotiated with many of its major suppliers in 1996 that increased
accounts payable from $14.6 million at December 31, 1995 to $32.9 million at
December 31, 1996. Net cash used in investing activities in 1996 was $22.5
million, principally consisting of investments in property and facilities in
Mayfield and Elizabethtown, Kentucky and Madison, North Carolina.  Net cash
provided by financing activities in 1996 was $33.4 million, primarily resulting
from increased revolving credit borrowings of approximately $50 million offset
in part by $15 million in principal payments on term loan borrowings under the
Company's Credit Agreement.

was $12.5 million, resulting primarily from an increase in accounts receivable
at year-end which was the result of sales in November and December 1995 being
approximately $16 million higher than the same period in 1994 and also due to
extended terms given to international customers under a Winter Sales Program on
November and December 1995 sales.  Net cash used in investing activities in 1995
was $17.5 million, principally consisting of the Company's investment in a new
computer system, and buildings and equipment related to the new research and
development facility in Elizabethtown, Kentucky.  Net cash used in financing
activities in 1995 was $10.5 million, principally consisting of principal
payments on term loan borrowings offset in part by increased revolving credit
borrowings.

Working Capital
-----------------

     Working capital decreased from $136.1 million at December 31, 1996 to
$108.2 million at December 31, 1997 primarily as a result of the Company's
ongoing working capital management program to help maximize cash from
operations. This program includes improved collection of accounts receivable,
maintaining inventory levels in line with sales projections and increased focus
on management of accounts payable.  As of December 31, 1997 the accounts
receivable balance was $56.3 million, a $14.8 million reduction from the
December 31, 1996 ending balance and  inventories were $90.0 million, an $11.9
million reduction from the December 31, 1996 ending balance.

Capital Expenditures
--------------------

     Capital expenditures were $5.8 million, $22.5 million and $18.9 million in
1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Approximately 17% of the 1997 capital
expenditures were related to the new firearms manufacturing facility in
Mayfield, Kentucky. The remainder of the capital expenditures in 1997 were
principally for maintenance of operations and improvement projects concentrated
on enhancing the efficiency of existing facilities. The Company anticipates that
capital expenditures in 1998 will be approximately $8.8 million, principally for
maintenance of operations and improvement projects concentrated on enhancing the
efficiency of existing facilities. The Company expects to fund capital
expenditures primarily from operational cash flow.

Liquidity
---------

     The Company incurred substantial indebtedness in connection with the
Acquisition.  As of December 31, 1997, the Company had outstanding approximately
$195.0 million of indebtedness, consisting of approximately $99.6 million
($100.0 million face amount) in 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003, Series
B (the "New Notes"), $68.2 million in term loan borrowings, $19.9 million in
revolving credit borrowings under the Credit Agreement, $5.3 million in capital
lease obligations, and $2.0 million of other long-term debt.  As of December 31,
1997 the Company also had aggregate letters of credit outstanding of $5.9
million.

     At present, the principal sources of liquidity for the Company's business
and operating needs are internally generated funds from its operations and
revolving credit borrowings under the Credit Agreement.  The Company believes
that it will be able to meet its debt service obligations and fund its operating
requirements with cash flow from operations and revolving credit borrowings
prior to the maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility, although no assurance
can be given in this regard.  In addition, the Company has implemented certain
programs and initiatives in order to improve cash flow from operations.  See "--
Cash Flows."  The Company expects that it will have to replace the Revolving
Credit Facility and refinance any outstanding amounts thereunder upon its
maturity on December 31, 2000. No assurance can be given that the Company will
be able to obtain such a replacement working capital facility or refinance such
amounts on terms acceptable to the Company.

Financial Instruments
---------------------

     The Company has only limited involvement with financial instruments and
does not use them for trading purposes.  Financial instruments, which are a type
of financial derivative instrument, are used to manage well-defined interest
rate and commodity price risks. The criteria to qualify for hedge accounting are
that the instrument must be related to an asset, liability, firm commitment or
anticipated transaction that is probable and whose characteristics and terms
have been identified. In addition, the investment must reduce the risks of
commodity price movements or change the character of the interest rate.

                                       26
<PAGE>

     The estimated value of the Company's debt at December 31, 1997 was $192.4
million compared to a carrying value of $195.0 million.  The estimated value of
the Company's debt at December 31, 1996 was $234.5 million compared to a
carrying value of $253.1 million.

     The Company was not a party to any interest rate cap, hedging or other
protection arrangements with respect to its variable rate indebtedness as of
December 31, 1996 or December 31, 1997.  The Company had two interest rate cap
agreements that expired in June, 1996. Prior to their termination, these caps
had reduced the potential impact of increases in interest rates on approximately
50% of the Company's variable rate term loan debt under the Credit Agreement.
The estimated fair value of the caps at December 31, 1995 was approximately $0.1
million.  See Note 18 to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 1997 appearing elsewhere in this Report.

     Commodity call options, swaps and futures are used to hedge the price risk
related to firm commitments and anticipated purchases of lead and copper to be
used in the manufacture of the Company's products.  Call options give the
Company the right to purchase a specified amount of metal at a fixed price on a
pre-determined date for an up front fee.  Swaps are purchased at a percentage of
the face amount and additional payments are then made or received based on the
difference between the pre-determined metal price and the actual metal price on
specified dates.  The futures contracts are a commitment to purchase a given
amount of metal at an agreed upon price on a future date. The face amount of
commodity contracts outstanding at December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $0.6
million, $1.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively.  At December 31, 1997,
1996 and 1995, the market value of the Company's outstanding contracts relating
to firm commitments and anticipated purchases up to one year from the respective
balance sheet date was $0.2 million, $1.2 million and $3.4 million,
respectively. As of December 31, 1997 and 1995 hedging losses related to closed
commodity futures contracts of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, were
included in inventory.  There were no hedging losses included in inventory at
December 31, 1996. See Note 18 to the Company's consolidated financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1997 appearing elsewhere in this
Report.

Credit Agreement
----------------

     The Company is currently party to the Credit Agreement with The Chase
Manhattan Bank ("Chase"), Union Bank of Switzerland ("UBS") and certain other
lenders, which was initially entered into in connection with the Acquisition.
The Credit Agreement provides for a term loan facility (the "Term Loan
Facility"), originally in an aggregate principal amount of $130 million, in
addition to the Revolving Credit Facility.  Both facilities have a final
maturity of December 31, 2000.  Up to $40 million of Revolving Credit Facility
availability may be used for standby and commercial letters of credit.  In
addition, for at least 30 consecutive days of each 12-month period commencing on
December 1, outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility are limited
to $60 million or less.

     The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Holding and
are secured by a pledge of the Company's capital stock and by pledges of and
security interests in substantially all the Company's property and assets. The
Credit Agreement contains various default provisions and affirmative and
negative covenants, including a negative pledge with respect to the Company's
unencumbered assets, and certain financial covenants that require the Company to
meet certain financial ratios and tests.  Since September 1995, the Company has
obtained four amendments to its Credit Agreement, which, among other things,
modified (i) the minimum earnings, minimum interest coverage ratio and net worth
covenants to decrease the required levels, (ii) the maximum debt to earnings
ratio covenant to increase the permissible debt levels and (iii) the capital
expenditure covenant initially to increase but ultimately to reduce the
permissible levels of capital expenditures.  The Company sought these
modifications in part because of the earnings impact of decreased ammunition and
firearms sales volumes and the additional interest expense resulting from
increased working capital borrowings due to changes in customer purchasing
patterns, and in part to make longer term adjustments to the covenant
requirements. See "-- Results of Operations" and "-- Recent Purchasing Patterns;
Seasonality."  As of December 31, 1997, after giving effect to these
modifications, the Company was in compliance in all material respects with the
financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

     In accordance with the Credit Agreement, the Company made scheduled
principal payments on the term loans thereunder of $18.2 million in 1997, $13.6
million in 1996, $9.3 million in 1995 and $10.0 million in 1994.  The Credit
Agreement requires the Company to make further quarterly principal payments on
the term loans thereunder (after pro rata reduction for certain prepayments and
subject to further pro rata or other reduction, if any, in the future) in an
aggregate amount of approximately $18.2 million in 1998, $22.7 million in 1999
and $27.3 million in 2000 with all

                                       27
<PAGE>

remaining amounts then outstanding under the Credit Agreement to be repaid on
December 31, 2000. The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to make
mandatory prepayments on the term loans thereunder annually, in an amount equal
to 50% of the Company's Excess Cash Flow (as defined therein) for the preceding
fiscal year. Any such prepayment will result in a pro rata reduction in all
subsequently scheduled principal payments on such term loans, except that any
such payment made within the twelve months prior to the date on which an
installment or other payment of principal is scheduled to be paid on the term
loans may, at the option of the Company, be applied first to such installment or
other payment. The Company made a prepayment of approximately $10.7 million in
1995 for the year ended December 31, 1994. The Company did not have Excess Cash
Flow for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 or 1995 and accordingly no such
prepayment is required in 1998 nor was a prepayment made in 1997 or 1996.

     Loans under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest, at the Company's
option, at a variable rate equal to either (i) the rate that is the highest of
the administrative agent's prime rate, or certain alternative rates, in each
case plus up to 1.25% per annum, or (ii) the rate at which certain Eurodollar
deposits are offered in the interbank Eurodollar market plus up to 2.50% per
annum.  The interest rate on the Company's Credit Agreement borrowings can be
reduced by 0.25% to 1.0% per annum from the levels originally in effect if the
Company meets certain financial ratios, based on EBITDA and consolidated
interest expense, for the four quarters most recently ended.  Once reduced, such
interest rate can also be increased up to the original levels if the Company no
longer meets the financial ratios making it eligible for interest rate
reduction.  The interest rate currently applicable to borrowings under the
Credit Agreement is the maximum rate provided for thereunder. The weighted
average interest rate for borrowings under the Term Loan was 8.2% per annum in
1997 and 8.1% per annum in 1996.  The weighted average interest rate for
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities was 8.4% in 1997 and 1996.

Notes
-----

     In connection with the Acquisition, the Company issued $100 million
aggregate principal amount of its 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003,
Series A ( the "Old Notes" together with the New Notes, the "Notes").  On June
23, 1997 the Company completed its offer to exchange (the "Exchange Offer") up
to $100 million aggregate principal amount of Remington's New Notes for a like
principal amount of Remington's issued and outstanding Old Notes.  All of the
Old Notes were exchanged for New Notes.  The interest rate on the Notes was 10%
per annum from April 30, 1994 until June 22, 1997, the day before the date of
consummation of the Exchange Offer, and is currently 9.5% per annum.  The
reduction in interest payments will amount to $0.5 million per year.  Interest
on the Notes is payable semi-annually and principal is payable at maturity on
December 1, 2003.

PRODUCT LIABILITY

     For information concerning product liability cases and claims involving the
Company, see "Legal Proceedings."  Because the Company's assumption of financial
responsibility for certain product liability cases and claims involving pre-
Acquisition occurrences was limited to the amount of the Cap, which has been
exhausted, with the Sellers retaining liability in excess of the Cap and
indemnifying the Company in respect thereof, and because of the Company's
accruals with respect to such cases and claims, the Company believes that
product liability cases and claims involving occurrences arising prior to the
Closing are not likely to have a material adverse effect upon the financial
condition or results of operations of the Company.  While it is difficult to
forecast the outcome of litigation, the Company does not believe, in light of
relevant circumstances (including the current availability of insurance for
personal injury and property damage with respect to cases and claims involving
occurrences arising after the Closing, the Company's accruals for the uninsured
costs of such cases and claims and the Seller's agreement to be responsible for
certain post-Closing firearm-related costs), that the outcome of all pending
product liability cases and claims will be likely to have a material adverse
effect upon the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
However, in part because of the uncertainty as to the nature and extent of
manufacturer liability for personal injury due to alleged product defects, there
can be no assurance that the Company's resources will be adequate to cover
future product liability occurrences, cases or claims, in the aggregate, or that
such a material adverse effect will not result therefrom.  Because of the nature
of its products, the Company anticipates that it will continue to be involved in
product liability cases and claims in the future.

  In December 1996, the Company and the Sellers resolved questions that had been
raised by the Sellers concerning certain product liability related costs that
the Company had allocated to the Cap or that were billed to cases for which the
Sellers assumed responsibility under the Asset Purchase Agreement. As a result
of this agreement

                                       28
<PAGE>

between the Sellers and the Company, the Company recorded a nonrecurring charge
of $4.7 million. This charge in effect increased the product liability portion
of the Cap from $24.5 million to $28.4 million. See "Legal Proceedings."

     Since December 1, 1993 the Company has maintained insurance coverage for
product liability claims for personal injury or property damage relating to
occurrences after the Closing, subject to certain self-insured retentions both
on a per-occurrence basis and in the aggregate. The current insurance policy
extends through November 30, 2000. Based on actual defense and disposition costs
incurred by the Company and Sporting Goods with respect to product liability
cases and claims in recent years, management estimates that the Company's
liability for product liability cases and claims relating to occurrences during
1997 will be in the range of $3.1 million to $7.0 million, and that the
liability for product liability cases and claims relating to occurrences during
1996 and 1995 will be in the range of $4.5 million to $9.0 million per year.
Management estimates that the amount of the self insured retention accrued each
year will be paid out over the following three to five years.  The Company
charged $4.3 million, $5.7 million and $6.5 million of payments for product and
environmental liabilities (including pre-Acquisition occurrences which were
subject to the Cap) in the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively, against the amounts previously accrued.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

  In 1995, the Company decided to replace most of the existing computer systems
at its various facilities with an integrated system, in which all facilities
would use the same software.  The Company would have undertaken this upgrade
regardless of the need to address the year 2000 problem and has therefore
capitalized the cost of the new system.  The new system is able to accommodate
the year 2000 dating changes necessary to permit correct recording of year
dates for 2000 and later years.  Most of the Company's computer systems other
than manufacturing are utilizing this new software, and the Company is currently
in the process of converting its manufacturing computer systems.  The Company
does not expect that the cost of converting such systems will be material to its
financial condition or results of operations.  The Company believes it will be
able to achieve year 2000 compliance at its remaining facilities by the end of
1999, and does not currently anticipate any material disruption in its
operations as the result of any failure by the Company to be in compliance. In
the event that any of the Company's significant suppliers or customers do not
successfully and timely achieve year 2000 compliance, the Company's business or
operations could be adversely affected.

ACQUISITION ACCOUNTING

     On December 1, 1993, the Company acquired the Business from the Sellers
through the Acquisition.  The Company accounted for the Acquisition using the
purchase accounting method, in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 16.  Accordingly, the adjusted purchase price of $299.8 million (net
of a $0.2 million post-Acquisition purchase price adjustment in the Company's
favor) and other acquisition costs which together total $313.5 million, have
been allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired, based on their respective
fair values as of the Acquisition date.   Intangible assets arising from the
Acquisition, consisting principally of goodwill and trade names of $95.9
million, are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally 40
years.

ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

  In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," effective
for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 1997. The Company adopted SFAS No.
128 effective with the reporting period ended December 31, 1997. The new
standard simplified the computation of earnings (loss) per share by replacing
primary earnings (loss) per share with basic earnings (loss) per share. Basic
earnings (loss) per share does not include the effect of any potentially
dilutive securities, as under the previous accounting standard, and is computed
by dividing reported income available to common shareholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Fully diluted
earnings (loss) per share will now be called diluted earnings (loss) per share
and reflects the dilution of all potentially dilutive securities. Companies were
required to restate all prior period earnings (loss) per share data. The
adoption of this standard by the Company had no impact on the historical
reported earnings (loss) per share amounts since the effect of potentially
dilutive securities has been immaterial and therefore has been excluded from the
historical earnings (loss) per share computations.

                                       29
<PAGE>

STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED

  SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure," will become
effective in 1998 and will not have a material effect on the information
currently reported by the Company.

  SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," will become effective in 1998.
This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components in the financial statements.  Its adoption will not
have a material effect on the information currently reported by the Company.

  SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," will become effective for the year ended December 31, 1998.  This
statement requires public business enterprises to report certain information
about operating segments in complete sets of financial statements of the
enterprise and in condensed financial statements of interim periods issued to
shareholders.  The Company is evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 131, but has
not yet determined if additional disclosures will be required.

  SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosure about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits," will become effective in 1998.  This statement standardizes the
disclosure requirements for pensions and postretirement benefits and will
require changes in disclosures of benefit obligations and fair values of plan
assets.  Comparative disclosures which include prior period information will be
restated to conform with the provision of this statement.

  Forward-looking statements are made based upon management's current
expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential
effects upon the Company.  There can be no assurance that future developments
will be in accordance with management's expectations or that the effect of
future developments on the Company will be those anticipated by management.  The
following important factors, and those important factors described elsewhere in
this Report (including, without limitation, those discussed in "Business --
Industry," "--Marketing and Distribution," "--Patents and Trademarks" and "--
Environmental Matters" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Overview," "--Taxes," "--Liquidity and
Capital Resources," "--Product Liability," "--Year 2000 Compliance" and "Legal
Proceedings"), or in other Securities and Exchange Commission filings of the
Company, could affect (and in some cases have affected) the Company's actual
results and could cause such results to differ materially from estimates or
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements.

-  The Company's ability to make scheduled payments of principal or interest on,
   or to refinance its obligations with respect to its indebtedness and to
   comply with the covenants and restrictions contained in the instruments
   governing such indebtedness will depend on its future operating performance
   and cash flow, which are subject to prevailing economic conditions,
   prevailing interest rate levels, and financial, competitive, business and
   other factors beyond its control including the responses of competitors,
   changes in customer inventory management practices, changes in customer
   buying patterns, regulatory developments and increased operating costs.

-  The degree to which the Company is leveraged could have important
   consequences to the holders of the notes relating to the Company's
   indebtedness, including the following: (i) the Company's ability to obtain
   additional financing for working capital or other purposes in the future may
   be limited; (ii) a substantial portion of the Company's cash flow from
   operations will be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on its
   indebtedness, thereby reducing funds available for operations; (iii) certain
   of the Company's borrowings will be at variable rates of interest, which
   could cause the Company to be vulnerable to increases in interest rates; and
   (iv) the Company may be more vulnerable to economic downturns and be limited
   in its ability to withstand competitive pressures.

-  The Company's ability to meet its debt service and other obligations will
   depend in significant part on customers purchasing the Company's products
   during the fall hunting season. Notwithstanding the Company's cost
   containment initiatives and continuing management of costs, a decrease in
   demand during the fall hunting season for the Company's higher priced, higher
   margin products would require the Company to further reduce costs or increase
   its reliance on borrowings under the Company's Revolving Credit Facility to
   fund operations. No assurance can be given that the Company would be able to
   reduce costs or increase its borrowings sufficiently to adjust to such a
   reduction in demand.

-  Because of the nature of its products, the Company anticipates that it will
   continue to be involved in product liability litigation in the future. The
   Company's ability to meet its product liability obligations will depend
   (among other things) upon the availability of insurance, the adequacy of
   Company accruals, the Sellers' ability to satisfy their obligations to
   indemnify the Company against certain product liability cases and claims and
   Sellers' agreement to be responsible for certain post-Acquisition shotgun
   related costs.

-  The Company's sales revenues have been adversely affected by changes in
   inventory management practices at several of its key customers. In addition,
   changes in customer buying patterns at certain key customers have increased
   the seasonality of the Company's sales of certain higher priced, higher
   margin products. The Company cannot control the inventory management
   practices or timing of its customers' purchases, and the

                                       31
<PAGE>

   adoption of similar policies by more of the Company's customers could lead to
   further constraints on sales and increased liquidity and working capital
   requirements.

-  The Company faces significant competition. The Company's competitors vary
   according to product line. Certain of these competitors are subsidiaries of
   large corporations with substantially greater financial resources than the
   Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to compete
   effectively with all of its present competition, and the Company's ability to
   so compete could be adversely affected by its leveraged condition.

-  Sales made to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. ("Wal-Mart") accounted for approximately
   20% of the Company's total net revenues in 1997. The Company's sales to Wal-
   Mart are not governed by a written contract between the parties. In the event
   that Wal-Mart were to significantly reduce or terminate its purchases of
   firearms and/or ammunition from the Company, the Company's financial
   condition or results of operations could be adversely affected.

-  The Company utilizes numerous raw materials, including steel, lead, brass,
   plastics and wood, as well as manufactured parts, that are purchased from one
   or a few suppliers. In addition, the Company purchases most of the fishline
   it requires for its product lines from DuPont under a supply agreement that
   was renewed in January 1997. Any disruption in the Company's relationship
   with these suppliers could increase the cost of operations.

-  The purchase of firearms is subject to federal, state and local governmental
   regulation. Regulatory proposals, even if never enacted, may affect firearms
   or ammunition sales as a result of consumer perceptions. The Company believes
   that its ammunition sales levels in 1994 and 1995 were affected by proposed
   legislation increasing the taxes on ammunition and by consumer uncertainty
   over the impact of the Brady Bill. While the Company does not believe that
   existing federal and state legislation relating to the regulation of firearms
   and ammunition has had a material adverse effect on its sales from 1994
   through 1997, no assurance can be given that more restrictive regulations, if
   proposed or enacted, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company
   in the future.

  While the Company periodically reassesses material trends and uncertainties
affecting the operations and financial condition in connection with its
preparation of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contained in its quarterly and annual reports, the Company
does not intend to review or revise any particular forward-looking statement
referenced in this Report in light of future events.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of RACI Holding, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of RACI Holding,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of RACI Holding, Inc.
and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

(Dollars in Millions, Except share and per share data)


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
------------------------------

  The accompanying consolidated financial statements of RACI Holding, Inc.
("Holding") include the accounts of its subsidiary, Remington Arms Company, Inc.
("Remington") and Remington's wholly owned subsidiary, Remington International,
Ltd. (together with Remington and Holding, the "Company"). Holding has no
material assets other than its investment in Remington.  All intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

  Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year's financial information
to conform with the current presentation format.

NOTE 2 - DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
------------------------------------

  The Company is engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of sporting goods
products for the hunting, shooting sports and fishing markets.  The Company's
product lines consist of firearms, ammunition, and hunting/gun care accessories,
sold under the Remington name and other labels, and fishing products, sold under
the Stren name and other labels.

  Holding was formed to effect the acquisition, through Remington, of certain
assets and liabilities of the Sporting Goods Business ("Sporting Goods"),
formerly operated by E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company ("DuPont"), and one of
DuPont's subsidiaries ("Old Remington," and together with DuPont, the
"Sellers").  This acquisition (the "Acquisition") was completed on December 1,
1993 pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement")
for a cash purchase price of $300.0, and was accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price (net of a $0.2 post-
closing purchase price adjustment in the Company's favor) and other acquisition
costs, together totaling $313.5, have been allocated to the acquired assets and
liabilities based on their fair values as of December 1, 1993.  This allocation
was finalized during 1994 upon completion of appraisals and other studies of
fair value.

  The Company acquired substantially all the assets (other than discontinued
properties, certain real property, and certain other assets) of Old Remington
and certain other assets of the Sellers used in connection with the marketing of
fishline and fishline accessories (collectively, the "Business").  The Company
also assumed certain specified liabilities, including trade payables,
postretirement benefits for certain retained employees and certain other
contractual obligations of the Sellers, totaling $55.8.  In addition, the
Company assumed financial responsibility up to a maximum aggregate amount of
$25.0 (the "Cap") for certain product liability related claims involving pre-
Acquisition occurrences, and for certain environmental liabilities. Liabilities
for costs in excess of $25.0 for such matters, were retained by the Sellers, as
were liabilities for discontinued products. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase
Agreement, the Sellers designated $24.5 of the Cap for assumed product liability
costs and the remainder for environmental costs. The Sellers also retained
pension and postretirement benefit liabilities for all retirees as of the
Acquisition date as well as the postretirement benefit liability for those
employees eligible to retire as of that date.

  In December 1996, the Company and the Sellers resolved questions that had been
raised by the Sellers concerning certain product liability related costs that
the Company had allocated to the Cap or which were billed to cases for which the
Sellers assumed responsibility under the Asset Purchase Agreement. As a result
of this agreement between the Sellers and the Company, the Company recorded a
non-recurring charge of $4.7, which in effect increased the product liability
portion of the Cap.  The Cap was exhausted in 1997.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
---------------------------------------------------

Cash and Cash Equivalents:
-------------------------

  Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits with banks and highly liquid
investments with remaining maturities, when purchased, of three months or less.

Inventories:
-----------

  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  The cost of
inventories is determined by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method.

Supplies:
--------

  The cost of supplies is determined by the average cost method.

Property, Plant and Equipment:
-----------------------------

  Investments in land, buildings and improvements, and machinery and equipment
acquired subsequent to the Acquisition are stated at cost.  Property, plant and
equipment obtained through the Acquisition were recorded at their appraised
values on the Acquisition date.  Depreciation is determined on a straight-line
basis over the estimated lives of the assets.  Assets obtained through the
Acquisition are being depreciated over their remaining useful lives as
determined by appraisal.  The estimated useful lives are principally 20 to 40
years for buildings and improvements, and 5 to 15 years for machinery and
equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations; replacements and
betterments are capitalized.  Computer hardware and software costs under capital
leases are amortized over the term of the lease.  The cost and related
accumulated depreciation applicable to assets sold or retired are removed from
the accounts and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in income.

  Interest is capitalized in connection with the construction of major
facilities.  The capitalized interest is recorded as part of the asset to which
it relates and is amortized over the asset's useful life.  Approximately, $0.2
of interest cost was capitalized in both 1997 and 1996. No interest cost was
capitalized in 1995.

Intangibles and Debt Issuance Costs:
-----------------------------------

  Intangibles, consisting primarily of goodwill and trade names, are amortized
on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 40 years.  Debt
issuance costs are being amortized over the life of the related debt. Management
assesses goodwill for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable.  To analyze recoverability,
management projects future cash flows, undiscounted and before interest, over
the remaining life of the goodwill.  If these projected cash flows are less than
the carrying amount of the goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized,
resulting in a writedown of goodwill with a corresponding charge to income.  The
impairment loss would be measured based upon the difference between the carrying
amount of the goodwill and the present value of future cash flows before
interest.  The Company uses a discount rate equal to its average cost of funds
to discount the expected future cash flows.

Financial Instruments:
----------------------

  The Company has only limited involvement with financial instruments and does
not use them for trading purposes. Financial instruments, which are a type of
financial derivative instrument, are used to manage well-defined commodity price
and interest rate risks and are considered hedges when certain criteria are
met. The criteria to qualify for hedge accounting are that the instrument must
be related to an asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction
that is probable and whose characteristics and terms have been identified. In
addition, the investment must reduce the risks of commodity price movements or
change the character of the interest rate.

  Premiums paid for purchased interest rate cap agreements are amortized to
interest expense over the term of the agreements.  Unamortized premiums are
included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheet.
Amounts receivable under interest rate cap agreements are accrued as a reduction
of interest expense. Gains and losses on commodity futures contracts qualifying
as hedges are deferred and recognized as a component of the cost of acquiring
the related inventory. Market values of financial instruments were estimated
based on quoted market prices, where available, or on current rates offered to
the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities. Unless otherwise
disclosed, the fair value of financial instruments approximates their recorded
values.

Income Taxes:
------------

  The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the method prescribed
by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
and liabilities, applying tax rates applicable to the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse.  A valuation allowance is recorded when it
is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Product Liability:
-----------------

  The Company provides for estimated defense and settlement costs related to
product liabilities when it becomes probable that a liability has been incurred
and reasonable estimates of such costs are available.  The Company maintains
insurance coverage for product liability claims, subject to certain policy
limits and to certain self-insured retentions for personal injury or property
damage relating to occurrences arising after the Closing.  The current insurance
policy extends through November 30, 2000. Product liabilities are not recorded
net of recoveries that are probable of realization. At December 31, 1997, 1996
and 1995, no recoveries have been recorded.

Revenue Recognition:
--------------------

  Sales, net of an estimate for discounts, returns and allowances, and related
cost of sales are included in income when goods are shipped to the customer.

Advertising and Promotional Costs:
---------------------------------

  Advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred.  In 1997, 1996 and
1995 advertising and promotional costs totaled  $17.2, $18.3 and $18.2,
respectively.

Self-Insurance:
--------------

  The Company is self-insured for elements of its employee benefit plans
including, among others, workers' compensation and elements of its property and
liability insurance programs, but limits its liability through stop-loss
insurance and annual plan maximum coverage limits. Self-insurance liabilities
are based on claims filed and estimates for claims incurred but not yet
reported.

Pension and Postretirement:
--------------------------

  Unrecognized prior service costs are being amortized over the estimated
remaining service lives of employees.  The unrecognized net gain or loss
resulting from changes in the amount of either the projected benefit obligation
or plan assets from experience different from that assumed are amortized over
five years.

Industry Segment:
----------------

  The Company operates within a single industry segment.  Sales outside the
United States of product manufactured in and exported from the United States
were $29.8 in 1997, $32.1 in 1996 and $32.8 in 1995.

Use of Estimates:
-----------------

  The preparation of consolidated 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.

New Accounting Pronouncements:
------------------------------

  SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure," will become
effective in 1998 and will not have a material effect on the information
currently reported by the Company.

  SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," will become effective in 1998.
This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components in the financial statements.  Its adoption will not
have a material effect on the information currently reported by the Company.

  SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," will become effective for the year ended December 31, 1998.  This
statement requires public business enterprises to report certain information
about operating segments in complete sets of financial statements of the
enterprise and in condensed financial statements of interim periods issued to
shareholders.  The Company is evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 131, but has
not yet determined if additional disclosures will be required.

  SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosure about Pensions and Other Postretirement
Benefits," will become effective in 1998.  This statement standardizes the
disclosure requirements for pensions and postretirement benefits and will
require changes in disclosures of benefit obligations and fair values of plan
assets.  Comparative disclosures which include prior period information will be
restated to conform with the provision of this statement.

NOTE 4 - RESTRUCTURING AND NON-RECURRING ITEMS
----------------------------------------------

  The Company recorded charges for restructuring in 1996 of $4.9. The
restructuring was necessary to reduce production levels, plant overhead
expenses, corporate administrative expense and other costs to correspond with
current sales volumes and to reorganize the Company's international marketing
efforts. The company-wide plan resulted in reductions of approximately 325
salaried and hourly (including bargaining unit) employees during the year. The
charges incurred include estimated costs for employee severance and other
benefits of $3.2, lease costs of $0.7 and other expenses of $1.0. A majority of
the remaining balance is expected to be paid out by the end of 1998.

  The Company and the Sellers resolved questions that had been raised by the
Sellers concerning certain product liability related costs that the Company had
allocated to the Cap or which were billed to cases for which the Sellers assumed
responsibility under the Asset Purchase Agreement.  As a result of this
agreement, the Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $4.7 in 1996.  (See
Notes 2 and 15).

NOTE 5 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
--------------------------------------

  Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are
generally diversified, except as noted below,  due to the large number of
customers comprising the Company's customer base. The Company reviews a
customer's credit history before extending credit and establishes an allowance
for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific
customers, historical trends and other information.  Bad debt expense for 1997,
1996 and 1995 was $0.4, $1.9 and $3.9, respectively.

  The Company's cash and cash equivalents are invested in high-quality
securities placed with institutions with high credit ratings. This investment
policy limits the Company's exposure to concentrations of credit risk.

  Sales to the Company's largest customer approximated 20%, 18% and 22% of
sales in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

NOTE 10 - RETIREE BENEFITS

Pension Plans:
--------------

     The Company sponsors a defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan") which
covers substantially all employees hired prior to June 1, 1996.  The Plan
provides retirement benefits based on years of service and compensation during
the last ten years of employment.  The Company intends to fund this Plan
consistent with the requirements of federal laws and regulations.

     Under the Acquisition agreement, DuPont was required to transfer funds to
the Plan in an amount equal to the actuarial present value of the projected
pension benefit obligation as of December 1, 1993 related to transferred
employees.  Management estimated the amount of such assets to be transferred to
the Plan by DuPont to be $39.8, plus interest of $4.7 at December 31, 1995. The
Company and DuPont were unable to agree upon this amount, and the parties
initiated the process to arbitrate the matter pursuant to the terms of the
Acquisition agreement. On December 20, 1996, the Company and DuPont agreed to a
final settlement of $42.6, including interest.  The difference between the final
settlement and the amount estimated by management is being treated as an
adjustment to plan assets resulting from experience different from that assumed,
and accordingly will be amortized into income over a five year period in
accordance with the Company's policy for recording pension costs.

     In addition to the defined benefit pension plan, the Company also sponsors
a qualified defined contribution plan covering substantially all employees.  The
Company matches 50% of a participant's contributions up to a maximum of 6% of a
participant's compensation. All employees hired after May 31, 1996 are also
eligible for a discretionary contribution. The Company's contribution to this
plan was $1.4 each year in 1997, 1996 and 1995.

Postretirement Benefit Plan:
---------------------------

     The Company sponsors a postretirement defined benefit plan which provides
certain employees hired prior to June 1, 1996, their covered dependents and
beneficiaries with retiree health and welfare benefits.  Generally, employees
who have attained a certain age and who have rendered a minimum required term of
service, on or after December 1, 1993 (including service rendered prior to the
Acquisition), will be eligible for these benefits.  The Company will fund
postretirement benefit claims as they are incurred.  Postretirement benefits for
employees who were eligible to retire under the DuPont postretirement benefit
scheme are covered by that scheme.

     In 1995, the Company amended its retiree medical program by changing the
cost sharing provisions including the introduction of a cap on the Company's
share of Medicare eligible retiree costs. These changes reduced the accumulated

     The assumed health care trend rate used in measuring the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 8.9% for 1996 and 8.3% for 1997 declining
to 5.5% ultimately in 2007.  A one-percentage-point increase in the assumed
health care cost trend rate would increase the accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation as of December 31, 1997 by approximately 3.7% and the
postretirement health care cost for the year then ended by approximately 7.2%.
The assumed discount rate used to determine the accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation was 7.3% and 7.8% at December 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

     The Company also provides certain severance benefits.  At December 31, 1997
and 1996, the accumulated postemployment benefit obligation and the annual
periodic cost of these obligations is not significant.

     The Company has a credit agreement, as amended, with certain lending
institutions (the "Credit Agreement") that provides for aggregate borrowings of
$280.0, including a term loan facility of $130.0 (the "Term Loan Facility") and
a revolving credit facility of $150.0 (the "Revolving Credit Facility").  All
borrowings under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Holding, and are
collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Company
may borrow up to $150.0 (including certain letters of credit) under the
Revolving Credit Facility through 2000, provided that such borrowings are
reduced for a period of 30 consecutive days of each 12-month period commencing
on December 1 to $60.0 or less. The weighted average interest rate for
borrowings under the Term Loan was 8.2% per annum in 1997 and 8.1% per annum in
1996.  The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the Revolving
Credit Facilities was 8.4% in 1997 and 1996.  The interest rate cap agreements
which were required by the Credit Agreement, expired in June, 1996.  The Company
is not currently a party to any interest rate cap, hedging or other protection
arrangements with respect to its variable rate indebtedness. Commitment fees of
1/2 of 1% are payable on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving
Credit Facility. At December 31, 1997, the Company had $4.8 in letters of credit
and $19.9 of borrowings outstanding with the remaining $125.3 of the Company's
Revolving Credit Facility available for borrowing. At December 31, 1996, the
Company had $4.8 in letters of credit and $59.0 of borrowings outstanding with
the remaining $86.2 of the Company's Revolving Credit Facility available for
borrowing.  Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are classified as
long-term as the Company has the intent and ability, supported by the terms of
the Credit Agreement, to maintain amounts outstanding through the year 2000.

     In accordance with the Credit Agreement, the Company has made all scheduled
principal payments on the term loans through December 31, 1997.  The Credit
Agreement requires the Company to make further quarterly principal payments on
the term loans thereunder (after pro rata reduction for certain prepayments and
subject to further pro rata or other reduction in the future) in an aggregate
amount of approximately $18.2 in 1998, $22.7 in 1999 and $27.3 in 2000 with all
remaining amounts then outstanding under the Credit Agreement to be repaid on
December 31, 2000.  The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to make
mandatory prepayments on the term loans thereunder annually, in an amount equal
to 50% of the Company's Excess Cash Flow (as defined therein) for the preceding
fiscal year.  Any such prepayment will result in a pro rata reduction in all
subsequently scheduled principal payments on such term loans, except that any
such payment made within the twelve months prior to the date on which an
installment or other payment of principal is scheduled to be paid on the term
loans may, at the option of the Company, be applied first

to such installment or other payment. The Company has made such a prepayment in
the amount of approximately $10.7 in 1995 for the year ended December 31, 1994.
The Company did not have Excess Cash Flow for the years ended December 31, 1997,
1996 and 1995 and accordingly no such prepayment is required in 1998, nor was
any such prepayment made in 1997 and 1996.

     Loans under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest, at the Company's
option, at a variable rate equal to either (i) the rate that is the highest of
the administrative agent's prime rate, or certain alternative rates, in each
case plus up to 1.25% per annum, or (ii) the rate at which certain Eurodollar
deposits are offered in the interbank Eurodollar market plus up to 2.50% per
annum.  Beginning in 1995, upon the Company's delivery to the Credit Agreement's
administrative agent of the Company's quarterly financial statements the
interest rate on the Company's Credit Agreement borrowings can be reduced by
0.25% to 1.0% per annum from levels in effect at December 31, 1994 if the
Company has met certain financial ratios, based on EBITDA and consolidated
interest expense, for the four quarters then ended. Once reduced, such interest
rate can also be increased up to the original levels if the Company no longer
meets the financial ratios making it eligible for interest rate reduction. The
interest rate currently applicable to borrowings under the Credit Agreement is
the maximum rate provided for thereunder. During 1996, the Company obtained
three successive amendments to its Credit Agreement to modify various EBITDA (as
defined), interest expense ratio maintenance, EBITDA ratio maintenance and net
worth requirements as well as the permissible levels of capital expenditures
under the relevant financial covenants as of the end of each fiscal quarter in
1996, as well as in all future periods. The Company sought these modifications
in part because of the current earnings impact of decreased ammunition and
firearms sales volumes and the additional interest expense resulting from
increased working capital borrowings due to changes in customer purchasing
patterns, and in part to make longer term adjustments to the covenant
requirements.  At December 31, 1997, the Company was in compliance in all
material respects with the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

     Mandatory prepayments of borrowings may also be required under the Credit
Agreement upon the occurrence of any of the following: certain changes in
control, the sale of a class of equity securities, the issuance or sale of a
class of debt securities or redeemable preferred stock, the incurrence of
indebtedness not permitted by the Credit Agreement, certain sales of assets
other than in the normal course of business and any receipt of certain insurance
or litigation proceeds relating to the loss of or damage to any assets in
amounts exceeding $5.0.

     The Company's 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes"), in an aggregate
$100.0 principal amount, mature on December 1, 2003.  The Notes are redeemable
at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, any time on or after December
1, 1998.  The redemption price ranges from 104.5% of the principal amount in
1998 to 101.5% in the year 2000. In the event of a change in control, the Notes
may be redeemed at the option of the Company for the principal amount plus
applicable interest and premium at that date.  The Notes, issued by Remington,
are subordinate to borrowings under the Credit Agreement and are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed on a subordinated basis by Holding. See Note 22 for
Holding's Consolidating Condensed Financial Data.  The Notes are not
collateralized by any of the Company's assets.  On June 23, 1997 the Company
completed its offer to exchange (the "Exchange Offer") up to $100 million
aggregate principal amount of Remington's registered 9.5% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2003, Series B (the "New Notes") for a like principal amount of
Remington's issued and outstanding 9.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2003,
Series A (the "Old Notes").  All of the Old Notes were exchanged for New Notes.
The interest rate on the Notes was 10% per annum from April 30, 1994 until June
22, 1997, the day before the date of consummation of the Exchange Offer, and is
currently 9.5% per annum.  The reduction in interest payments will amount to
$0.5 million per year. The original issue discounts on the Notes of $0.6 are
being amortized at 9.6% per annum. As of  December 31, 1997, the total
accumulated amortization was $0.2.

     The Indenture for the Notes and the Credit Agreement contain various
restrictions on the Company's ability to incur debt, pay dividends and enter
into certain other transactions.  In addition, the Credit Agreement contains
certain requirements with respect to minimum working capital, net worth and
earnings levels, as well as minimum ratios

regarding profitability and interest expense. Under the Credit Agreement,
dividends by Remington to Holding are not to exceed $1.0 annually unless for
certain specific purposes, as defined in the Credit Agreement.

     As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, the Company also had additional letters
of credit outstanding of $1.1 and $2.3, respectively.

     The aggregate payments of Long-Term debt outstanding at December 31, 1997,
for the next four years are $21.5, $25.0, $48.6, and $0.3, respectively.  No
payments are due in the fifth year.

     As of December 31, 1996, the Company had reserved 132,380 shares of the
Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of Holding ("Common Stock") for
issuance in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated RACI Holding,
Inc. Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan"), the RACI Holding, Inc. Stock
Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") and the RACI Holding, Inc. 1994 Directors'
Stock Plan (the "1994 Directors' Plan").  On July 22, 1997 the Board of
Directors of Holding adopted the RACI Holding, Inc. Director Stock Purchase Plan
(the "1997 Directors' Plan") and reserved an additional 12,500 shares of the
Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of Holding for issuance
thereunder.  As of December 31, 1997, 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock have
been issued under the 1997 Directors' Plan and no shares of Common Stock have
been issued under the Option Plan, Purchase Plan or 1994 Directors' Plan.  As of
December 31, 1997, the Company has 134,880 shares of Class A Common Stock
reserved for issuance which remain available for grant under the above mentioned
plans.

     The Option Plan provides for the grant of options (the "Options") which are

     The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provision of SFAS No. 123
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."  Accordingly, since options have been
granted at an option exercise price equal to the estimated fair value of the
underlying Common Stock, no compensation expense has been recognized with
respect to grants of stock options granted to date.  Had compensation expense
for such option grants been recognized under SFAS No. 123 based on the fair
value of such options at the grant dates thereof in 1995 and 1997, the Company's
net earnings and earnings per share on a pro forma basis would have been as

NOTE 15 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
---------------------------------------

     The Company has various purchase commitments approximating $3.7 for 1998,
$4.0 for 1999, $0.2 for 2000, $0.2 for 2001 and $0.1 for 2002  for services
incidental to the ordinary conduct of business.  Such commitments are not at
prices in excess of current market prices.  In addition, the Company is required
to pay a minimum termination fee of $0.5 should there be a termination prior to
the close of one of the agreements.

     Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Sellers retained liability
for, and are required to indemnify the Company against, (1) all product
liability cases and claims (whenever they may arise) involving discontinued
products and (2) all product liability cases and claims involving products that
had not been discontinued as of the closing of  the Acquisition (the "Closing")
("extant products") and relating to occurrences that took place, but were not
disclosed to the Company, prior to the Closing.  The Company assumed financial
responsibility, up to an aggregate amount of $25.0  (the "Cap"), for (1) product
liability cases and claims involving extant products and relating to occurrences
that took place, and were disclosed to the Company, prior to the Closing, and
(2) any environmental liabilities relating to the ownership or operation of
Sporting Goods prior to the Closing.  The Sellers retained liability for, and
are required to indemnify the Company against, all such disclosed product
liability occurrences and such environmental liabilities in excess of the Cap.
This indemnification obligation of the Sellers is not subject to any survival
period limitation.  Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Sellers
designated $24.5 of the Cap for assumed product liability costs and the
remainder for environmental costs. In December 1996, the Company and the Sellers
resolved questions that had been raised by the Sellers concerning certain
product liability related costs that the Company had allocated to the Cap or
which were billed to cases for which the Sellers assumed responsibility under
the Asset Purchase Agreement.  As a result of this agreement between the Sellers
and the Company, the Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $4.7.  This
charge in effect increased the product liability portion of the Cap from $24.5
to $28.4.  Included within the $4.7 non-recurring charge is $0.8 of certain
other product liability related defense costs that the Company agreed to pay.
The remaining Cap was exhausted in 1997. Except for certain cases and claims
relating to shotguns as described below and for all cases and claims relating to
discontinued products, the Company generally bears financial responsibility for
product liability cases and claims relating to occurrences after the Closing.
Because of the nature of firearm and ammunition products, the Company
anticipates that it, as well as other manufacturers of firearm or ammunition
products, will continue to be involved in product liability litigation in the
future.

     Since December 1, 1993, the Company has maintained insurance coverage for
product liability claims subject to certain self-insured retentions both on a
per-occurrence basis and in the aggregate for personal injury or property damage
relating to occurrences arising after the Closing. The current insurance policy
extends through November 30, 2000.  Based on actual defense and disposition
costs incurred by the Company and Sporting Goods with respect to product
liability cases and claims in recent years, management estimates that the
Company's liability for product liability cases and claims relating to
occurrences during 1997 will be in the range of $3.1 to $7.0, and that the
liability for product liability cases and claims relating to occurrences during
1996 and 1995 will be in the range of $4.5 to $9.0 per year.  The Company
charged $4.3, $5.7 and $6.5 of payments against the accrual for product and
environmental liabilities (including pre-Acquisition occurrences which were
subject to the Cap) in the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Management estimates that the amount of the self insured retention
accrued will be paid out over the following three to five years.

     The Company and the Sellers are engaged in the joint defense of certain
product liability litigation involving Remington brand firearms and Company
ammunition products.  As of December 31, 1997 approximately 30 such cases were
pending, primarily alleging defective product design or manufacture, or failure
to provide adequate warnings. All but two of these cases are individual actions
alleging personal injury, and many seek punitive as well as compensatory
damages. Of these pending individual cases, approximately 3 involve discontinued
products and approximately 3 involve undisclosed pre-Closing occurrences.
Accordingly, these are cases for which the Sellers retained liability and are
required to indemnify the Company for the full amount.  In addition,
approximately 3 of the pending cases were

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

subject to the Cap and are cases for which the Sellers retained liability and
are required to indemnify the Company for amounts in excess of the Cap. The
remaining approximately 19 of the pending cases involve post-Closing occurrences
for which the Company bears responsibility under the Asset Purchase Agreement.
The Company has previously disposed of a number of other cases involving post-
Closing occurrences by settlement.

     Two cases, Leonel Garza et al. v. Sporting Goods Properties, Inc., et al.
("Garza") and  Joe Luna, et al. v. Remington Arms Company, Inc. and E. I. du
Pont de Nemours and Company et al. ("Luna"), which were pending at the time of
the Closing, and for which the Company assumed financial responsibility up to
the amount of the Cap, were asserted as class actions, one involving shotguns
and the other bolt-action rifles. In each case certification was sought of a
class of owners of Remington brand firearms, generally claiming economic loss
based on alleged product defect, and seeking compensatory, punitive and treble
damages, plus other costs.

     On February 6, 1996, the Court in San Antonio, Texas gave final approval to
a settlement of the Garza class action relating to Remington brand shotguns, and
that decision has become final and non-appealable. The Garza case involved
certain Remington brand 12-gauge shotguns, including Model 1100, 11-87 and 870
shotguns, manufactured from 1960 to 1995. Pursuant to the settlement, funds of
approximately $19.0 million were distributed to eligible shotgun owners in the
second quarter of 1997. The disposition of any unclaimed funds is expected to be
decided in 1998. Except for a few class members who have opted out, the
settlement resolves all claims that might be brought by owners of the shotguns
at issue in connection with the barrel steel formerly used in such firearms,
other than claims for personal injury. Publicity regarding the Garza agreement
led, and may continue to lead, to some additional claims of personal injury
allegedly involving use of the shotguns included in the class action lawsuit.
The Company does not believe that the disposition of Garza (including any
individual personal injury actions which might be filed as a result of the
settlement) is likely to have a material adverse effect upon its financial
condition or results of operations.

     The other purported class action, Luna, filed in 1989 against the Sellers
in Texas district court in Jim Wells County, and amended in December 1993, and
again in July 1996, sought certification of a class consisting of all Texas
owners, allegedly 400,000 in number, of Model 700 bolt-action rifles. In June
1996, the district court issued a ruling that certified for class treatment the
limited issues of whether the Model 700 fire control system is "defective" and,
if so, the "cost of repair."  Pursuant to Texas law, the Sellers filed a timely
appeal of this ruling to the intermediate level state appellate court, and oral
argument was held on June 19, 1997. Remington was not named as a defendant until
July 1996, after the class certification was appealed, and was not a party to
the appeal. On July 16, 1996, plaintiffs further amended the complaint to
include Remington and a hearing in the district court on the class certification
motion against Remington took place on June 9, 1997.  Holding has not been named
as a defendant in this case. On February 11, 1998, the Texas appellate court
reversed the trial court's decision certifying the class against the Sellers, on
the ground that class treatment was not a superior method for resolving disputes
relating to the plaintiffs' alleged losses.  One judge dissented from this
holding. Although Remington was not a party to the appeal, the appellate court's
decision should govern the class action claims against it as well as the claims
against the Sellers.  Plaintiffs have filed a motion requesting a rehearing.  If
that request is denied, the plaintiffs have 30 days thereafter to seek review by
the Texas Supreme Court.  The Sellers' obligations with respect to Luna include
a requirement that they indemnify the Company against all claims for economic
loss involving Model 700 rifles shipped up to 42 calendar months after the
Closing (prior to the end of May 1997).  Claims of economic loss involving Model
700 rifles thereafter would be the Company's responsibility and, to the extent
that such claims do not involve personal injury or property damage, they would
not be covered by the Company's product liability insurance.

     The representations and warranties in the Asset Purchase Agreement expired
18 months after the Closing, with certain exceptions, and claims for
indemnification with respect thereto were to be made within 30 days of such
expiration.  The Company made claims for such indemnification involving product
liability issues within that time period.  In connection with the consummation
of the Garza settlement, the Company and the Sellers agreed that the Sellers
shall assume financial responsibility for a portion of the costs relating to
product liability claims and cases

involving certain shotguns manufactured prior to mid-1995 and based on
occurrences arising prior to November 30, 1999, and that any claims the Company
and the Sellers may have against each other under the Asset Purchase Agreement
relating to shotguns (excluding various indemnification rights and the
allocation of certain costs under the Cap) are released. Any claims between the
Company and the Sellers relating to other product liability issues remain open.

     Because the Company's assumption of financial responsibility for certain
product liability cases and claims involving pre-Acquisition occurrences was
limited to the amount of the Cap, with the Sellers retaining liability in excess
of the Cap and indemnifying the Company in respect thereof, and because of the
Company's accruals with respect to such cases and claims, the Company believes
that product liability cases and claims involving occurrences arising prior to
the Closing are not likely to have a material adverse effect upon the financial
condition or results of operations of the Company.  While it is difficult to
forecast the outcome of litigation, the Company does not believe, in light of
relevant circumstances (including the current availability of insurance for
personal injury and property damage with respect to cases and claims involving
occurrences arising after the Closing, the Company's accruals for the uninsured
costs of such cases and claims and the Sellers' agreement to be responsible for
certain post-Closing firearm-related costs, as described above), that the
outcome of all pending product liability cases and claims will be likely to have
a material adverse effect upon the financial condition or results of operations
of the Company.  However, in part because of the uncertainty as to the nature
and extent of manufacturer liability for personal injury due to alleged product
defects, there can be no assurance that the Company's resources will be adequate
to cover future product liability occurrences, cases or claims, in the
aggregate, or that such a material adverse effect will not result therefrom.
Because of the nature of its products, the Company anticipates that it will
continue to be involved in product liability litigation in the future.

     The Company does not expect current environmental regulations to have a
material adverse effect on the results of operations and has not been identified
by regulatory authorities as a potentially responsible party. However, the
Company's liability for future environmental remediation costs is subject to
considerable uncertainty due to the complex, ongoing and evolving process of
identifying the necessity for, and generating cost estimates for, remedial work.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that environmental regulations will not
become more restrictive in the future.

services provided to the Company and reimbursement of related out-of-pocket
expenses. Fees and out-of-pocket expenses paid to CD&R were $0.5, $0.4 and $0.4
in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

NOTE 18 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
-------------------------------

     The estimated value of the Company's debt at December 31, 1997 was
$192.4 compared to a carrying value of $195.0.  The estimated value of the
Company's debt at December 31, 1996 was $234.5 compared to a carrying value of
$253.1.

     Commodity call options, swaps and futures are used to hedge the price risk
related to firm commitments and anticipated purchases of lead and copper to be
used in the manufacture of the Company's products.  Call options give the
Company the right to purchase a specified amount of metal at a fixed price on a
pre-determined date for an up front fee.  Swaps are purchased at a percentage of
the face amount and additional payments are then made or received based on the
differential between the face amount and the actual price of the metals
contracts at the date sold.  The future contracts are a commitment to purchase a
given amount of metal at an agreed upon price on a future date. The face amount
of commodity contracts outstanding at December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $0.6,
$1.3 and $3.4, respectively.  At December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the market
value of the Company's outstanding contracts relating to firm commitments and
anticipated purchases up to one year from the respective balance sheet date was
$0.2, $1.2 and $3.4,  respectively.  As of December 31, 1997 and 1995, hedging
losses related to closed commodity futures contracts of $0.2 and $0.1,
respectively, were included in inventory.   There were no hedging losses
included in inventory at December 31, 1996.

     The Company was not a party to any interest rate cap, hedging or other
protection arrangements with respect to its variable rate indebtedness as of
December 31, 1997 or 1996. The Company had two interest rate cap agreements that
expired in June 1996 which reduced the potential impact of increases in interest
rates on approximately 50% of the Company's variable rate term loan debt under
the Credit Agreement. The estimated fair value of the caps at December 31, 1995
was approximately $0.1.

NOTE 19 - RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
----------------------------------

     Research and development expenses of $5.3 for 1995 included a  $1.0 benefit
as the actual relocation-related severance costs resulting from the Company's
consolidation of its research and development function were less than estimated
in 1994.  Excluding this nonrecurring item in 1995, research and development
expenditures for the continuing operations of the Company in 1997, 1996 and 1995
amounted to approximately $7.4, $10.2 and $6.3,  respectively.

NOTE 21 - NET INCOME (LOSS)  PER SHARE DISCLOSURES
--------------------------------------------------

     In 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128 "Earnings per Share." The impact
of adopting this statement has no effect on net income (loss) per share for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995. The basic and diluted net income (loss)
per share was determined as follows:

     As indicated in the above table, there were common stock options
outstanding in 1997, 1996 and 1995.  However, the common stock options were not
included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options'
exercise price of $100 was equal to the market price of the common shares for
each of the time periods.

(1) Subject to the Named Executive Officer's continued employment, the options
    become exercisable in three equal installments on each of the second, third
    and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to acceleration under
    certain circumstances.

(2) The potential realizable value of each grant of employee stock options,
    assuming that the market price of the underlying security appreciates in
    value from the date of grant to the end of the option term at the rates of
    5% and 10%, are shown above. Hypothetical future values, based on the
    difference between the option price at date of grant and the stock prices
    shown in parentheses, indicate what gain would be realized if such options
    were exercised immediately prior to their expiration date. The actual future
    gains, if any, of the stock options will depend upon the future appreciation
    in the market price of the Common Stock. There is no assurance that the
    assumed future values reflected in this Table will actually be attained. Use
    of this model should not be viewed in any way as a forecast of the future
    performance of Holding's stock, which will be determined by future events
    and unknown factors.

PENSION AND RETIREMENT PLAN

     The Remington Arms Company, Inc. Pension and Retirement Plan was
established effective December 1, 1993 to provide retirement income and survivor
benefits to Remington's employees and their beneficiaries through a tax
qualified program.

     Retirement benefits under the Pension and Retirement Plan are generally
based on an employee's years of benefit service and highest final average
compensation.  Generally, an employee's benefit service under the Pension and
Retirement Plan includes all of his service with Remington and his service, if
any, with DuPont prior to the Closing.  DuPont service is not recognized for
benefit accrual or early retirement eligibility, however, in the case of
eligible employees who elected to retire from DuPont and commence receiving
retirement income from the DuPont retirement plan in connection with the
Acquisition.  Retirement benefits are generally paid in annuity form, for life,
commencing at the employee's 65th birthday, although longer service employees
may elect to commence receiving retirement income at an earlier age.

</TABLE>

     The above table illustrates the annual amounts payable under the Pension
and Retirement Plan in the form of a straight life annuity to employees retiring
at age 65 in 1997.  Compensation recognized under the Pension and Retirement
Plan generally includes an employee's average compensation for the three
consecutive year period in the employee's final ten years of service for which
such compensation was the highest.  Compensation for this purpose includes
overtime, shift differentials and 50% of any incentive compensation award.
Compensation does not include awards and payments under any other special
compensation plans, payments for severance, relocation or other special payments
or pay in excess of legally restricted amounts ($235,840 for plan years
beginning before 1994 and $150,000 (as adjusted pursuant to legal regulation)
for plan years beginning after 1993).  The above benefits are based on the
greater of three formulas, one of which is offset by Social Security Benefits.

     The years of benefit service and average monthly pay (expressed as an
annual amount), recognized as of December 31, 1997, under the Pension and
Retirement Plan for each eligible Named Executive Officer are as follows:

ITEM 13.    CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

CD&R AND C&D FUND IV

     C&D Fund IV, which currently is Holding's largest stockholder, is a private
investment fund managed by CD&R.  Amounts contributed to C&D Fund IV by its
limited partners are invested at the discretion of the general partner in equity
or equity-related securities of entities formed to effect leveraged buy-out
transactions and in the equity of corporations where the infusion of capital
coupled with the provision of managerial assistance by CD&R can be expected to
generate returns on investments comparable to returns historically achieved in
leveraged buy-out transactions.  The general partner of C&D Fund IV is
Associates IV.  Leon J. Hendrix, Jr., a principal of CD&R and a general partner
of Associates IV, is a director and currently serves as Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of Remington and Holding.  Joseph L. Rice, III, Hubbard C.
Howe and B. Charles Ames are principals of CD&R, general partners of Associates
IV, and directors of Remington and Holding.  Donald J. Gogel and Joseph L. Rice,
III are the sole stockholders of CD&R.  Richard A. Gilleland provides advisory
and consulting services to CD&R relating to investments and investment
opportunities in healthcare-related industries and is a director of Remington
and Holding.

     CD&R receives an annual fee for management and financial consulting
services provided to the Company and reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses,
pursuant to a consulting agreement among Holding, the Company and CD&R.  Such
services include helping the Company to establish effective banking, legal and
other business relationships, and assisting management in developing and
implementing strategies for improving the operational, marketing and financial
performance of the Company.  In addition, CD&R has agreed to furnish the
services of Mr. Hendrix to serve as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company and Holding as a part of the services provided pursuant to that
consulting agreement.  Mr. Hendrix's compensation from CD&R is established
without regard to the extent of particular services provided by Mr. Hendrix to
the Company.  The number of CD&R employees, and the amount of time spent by
them, working with a particular portfolio varies from time to time with the
scope and type of services provided.  The consulting fees paid to CD&R were
$400,000 for each of 1995, 1996 and 1997.  The consulting fees to be paid to
CD&R may not exceed $500,000 per year under the terms of the Credit Agreement
and the Indenture unless certain requirements are met.  Such consulting fees
will be reviewed on an annual basis and will be calculated with reference to the
size and complexity of the Company's business, the type and magnitude of the
advisory and management consulting services being provided, the fees being paid
to CD&R by other companies for which it provides such services and the fees
charged by other managers with comparable organizations for similar services
provided to companies in which investment funds managed by such managers have
invested.

     The Company paid fees to the law firm of Debevoise & Plimpton during 1997
for legal services rendered.  Franci J. Blassberg, Esq., a member of Debevoise &
Plimpton, is married to Joseph L. Rice, III, a director of the Company and a
general partner of Associates IV.

     CD&R, C&D Fund IV, Holding and the Company have entered into an
indemnification agreement, pursuant to which Holding and the Company have agreed
to indemnify CD&R, C&D Fund IV, Associates IV and their respective directors,
officers, partners, employees, agents and controlling persons against certain
liabilities arising under the federal securities laws, other laws regulating the
business of the Company and certain other claims and liabilities.

     As noted under "Ownership of Capital Stock," C&D Fund IV currently owns
98.7% of the outstanding Common Stock.  C&D Fund IV and Holding have entered
into a registration rights agreement that, among other things, provides C&D Fund
IV and will provide certain other Holding equity holders with certain
registration rights with respect to their Common Stock.

STOCK OPTION AND PURCHASE PLANS

     As of December 31, 1996, the Company had reserved 132,380 shares of the
Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of Holding ("Common Stock") for
issuance in accordance with the terms of the RACI Holding, Inc. Stock Option
Plan (the "Option Plan"), the RACI Holding, Inc. Stock Purchase Plan ( the
"Purchase Plan") and the RACI Holding, Inc. 1994 Directors' Stock Plan (the
"1994 Directors' Plan").  On July 22, 1997 the Board of Directors of RACI
Holding adopted the RACI Holding, Inc. Director Stock Purchase Plan (the "1997
Directors' Plan) which reserved an additional 12,500 shares of the Class A
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of Holding for issuance in

                                       41
<PAGE>

accordance with the terms of the 1997 Directors' Plan. To date 10,000 shares of
Common Stock have been issued under the 1997 Directors' Plan and no shares of
Common Stock have been issued under the Option Plan, Purchase Plan or 1994
Directors' Plan although it is expected that shares of Common Stock will be
issued under the 1994 Directors' Plan in the near future. As of December 31,
