1. UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Interim condensed financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements
for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles are omitted. For additional disclosures, see the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Universal Automotive Industries,
Inc. (the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2001.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements contained in the Universal Automotive Industries, Inc. (the
"Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. The
application of these policies may require management to make judgments and
estimates about the amounts reflected in the financial statements. Management
uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates
and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different
assumptions and estimates.

In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments, consisting solely
of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the
financial statements for these interim periods have been included. The current
period's results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results, which
ultimately may be achieved for the year.

Certain reclassifications have been made for the period presented in the
financial statements to conform to the classifications presented in 2002.

3. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Net Income Per Share
Warrants and options issued by the Company are only included in the computation
of weighted average number of shares, where their inclusion is not
anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, common stock equivalents
are not included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding in
determining net loss per share.

Income Taxes
For the quarters and year to date periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, the
provision for income taxes differed from the amount computed by applying the
statutory rate to income (loss) before income taxes primarily due to adjustments
to the valuation allowance for deferred tax benefit.



                                       6

4.  LASALLE INDEBTEDNESS

The LaSalle Credit Agreement contains certain limitations on dividends and
capital expenditures and requires the Company to satisfy certain financial tests
concerning earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA), defined minimum tangible net worth and debt service coverage. At
December 31, 2001, the Company was not in compliance with certain of these
financial covenants. On March 27, 2002, LaSalle informed the Company that it
would waive such violation upon completion of required documentation that
included certain modifications and amendments to the Credit Agreement. These
modifications and amendments were executed on April 30, 2002, which provides,
among their provisions, an extension of the Credit Agreement until May 31, 2003
and modifications to certain financial covenants for which the Company was in
compliance as of March 31, 2002. As of June 30, 2002 the Company is in
compliance with its financial and other covenants. On August 7, 2002 the credit
agreement was further extended to May 31, 2005 and the interest rate reduced by
1/2%.

5. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). Under SFAS 142, we are
no longer required to amortize goodwill and other intangible assets with
indefinite lives, but will be subject to periodic testing for impairment.
Effective January 1, 2002, we have adopted SFAS 142 and discontinued the
amortization of goodwill balances and intangible assets with indefinite useful
lives. We assessed our goodwill for impairment and will test for impairment at
least annually thereafter.

In October 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS
144"). SFAS 144 establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. SFAS 144
superseded Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,"
and APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the
Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." The provisions of SFAS 144 are
effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption
permitted, and in general are to be applied prospectively. We have adopted SFAS
144 effective January 1, 2002.

6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
143, "Accounting for Obligations Associated with the Retirement of Long-Lived
Assets" ("SFAS 143"). SFAS 143 establishes accounting standards for the
recognition and measurement of an asset retirement obligation and its associated
asset cost. It also provides accounting guidance for legal obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. SFAS 143 is
effective in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with early adoption
permitted. We plan to adopt SFAS 143 effective January 1, 2003. We have not
determined the effect of adopting SFAS 143 on results of operations or our
financial position.

7. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

As previously disclosed in Note 11 of the 2001 Form 10-K, the Company finalized
its decision to discontinue its Hungarian operation in December 1999. As of
December 31, 1999, the Company provided for estimated costs of disposition of
$1,500,000 including estimated losses of the discontinued operations during the
disposal period. The disposition was initially expected to occur by the end of
2000. Commencing in 2001, because the Company had not disposed of the Hungarian
operations within one year, generally accepted accounting principles required
that income or loss from such discontinued operations be included in the
Statement of Earnings as a component of income or loss from continuing
operations. Accordingly, a net loss of $342,188 ($0.05 per share) was charged to
expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2001. The Company sold its
interest in the Hungarian operations effective December 31, 2001.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS(1)


GENERAL

We are a manufacturer and distributor of brake rotors, drums, disc brake pads,
relined brake shoes, non-asbestos friction lining, and a complete line of
hydraulic parts. We believe that we are the leading supplier of "value line"
brake parts (brake parts sold at prices significantly below those of certain
leading national brand name brake parts) to mass-market retailers, traditional
warehouse distributors and specialty undercar distributors in North America.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 Compared To Three Months Ended June 30, 2001

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2002 increased $424,914 or 2.1%
over the same quarter in 2001 to $20,424,405. The increased sales of brake parts
are consistent with the strengthening experienced throughout the automotive
aftermarket.

Gross profits for the three months ended June 30, 2002 were $3,999,779 or 19.6%
of net sales compared to $3,741,039 or 18.7% in the same period of 2001, an
increase of $258,740 or 6.9%. Approximately 50% of the increase is attributable
to increased sales. The remainder of the increase is primarily due to increased
efficiency and overhead absorption over 2001 levels at the Company's
manufacturing facilities.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $2,918,890 (14.3% of net sales)
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 increased by $110,917 when compared to
$2,807,973 (14.0% of net sales) for the same period in 2001. Increased freight
costs on shipments to customers on the higher sales volume were partially offset
by cost savings initiatives and other cost reduction efforts.

Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2002 decreased $177,152 to
$563,664 from $740,816 for the same period of 2001. Interest expense decreased
$231,770 from the same period in 2001 due to the restructuring of the Finova
subordinated debt that became effective October 31, 2001 and a lower interest
rate on the revolving loan indebtedness. Included in other expense for the
quarter ended June 30, 2001 is $175,000 of costs and expenses related to the
potential strategic alliance with Competition Friction, LLC. Discussions
regarding this strategic alliance terminated in April 2002. Included in other
expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 are losses of $187,294 from the
discontinued Hungarian foundry (see Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Financial
Statements). Also included in the results for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 is
$80,000 of other income related to the sale of excess equipment.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was $517,225 compared to
$200,750 for the same period in 2001. This increase in net income is attributed
to increased sales, higher efficiencies and overhead absorption at the Company's
manufacturing facilities, reduced selling, general and administrative expenses
resulting from cost containment and reduction programs and lower interest
expense.

(1) Some of the statements included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations may be considered to be "forward

Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2001

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased $2,040,866 or 5.7%
over the same quarter in 2001 to $38,068,772. The increased sales of brake parts
are consistent with the strengthening experienced throughout the automotive
aftermarket.

Gross profits for the six months ended June 30, 2002 were $7,215,893 or 18.9% of
net sales compared to $6,110,553 or 16.9% in the same period of 2001, an
increase of $1,105,348 or 18.1%. Approximately 55% of the increase is
attributable to increased sales. The remainder of the increase is primarily due
to increased efficiency and overhead absorption over 2001 levels at the
Company's manufacturing facilities.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $5,617,614 (14.8% of net sales)
for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased by $122,768 when compared to
$5,495,146 (15.3% of net sales) for the same period in 2001. Increased freight
costs on shipments to customers on the higher sales volume were partially offset
by cost savings initiatives and other cost reduction efforts.

Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased $568,411 to
$929,143 from $1,497,589 for the same period of 2001. Interest expense decreased
$460,945 from the same period in 2001 due to the restructuring of the Finova
subordinated debt that became effective October 31, 2001 and lowering the
interest rate on the revolving loan indebtedness. Included in other expense for
the six months ended June 30, 2001 is $175,000 of costs and expenses related to
the potential strategic alliance with Competition Friction, LLC. Discussions
regarding this strategic alliance terminated in April 2002. Included in other
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are losses of $342,188 from the
discontinued Hungarian foundry (see Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Financial
Statements). Also included in the results for the six months ended June 30, 2001
is $80,000 of other income related to the sale of excess equipment.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $669,136 compared to a
loss of $882,177 for the same period in 2001. This increase of $1,551,313 is
attributed to increased sales, higher efficiencies and overhead absorption at
the Company's manufacturing facilities, reduced selling, general and
administrative expenses resulting from cost containment and reduction programs,
lower interest expense and the elimination of losses related to the Hungarian
foundry.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was
$1,880,005. This usage of cash was primarily due to (a) an accounts receivable
increase of $4,322,165 from December 31, 2001 due to seasonality and increased
sales, partially offset by (b) net income and non-cash items (principally
depreciation and amortization) of $1,357,080 and (c) a decrease in inventory of
$860,189.

Net cash used in investing activities was $515,621, which was attributable
primarily to acquisition of various items of tooling, manufacturing equipment
and warehouse equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,677,452, consisting primarily
of increases in borrowings under the Company's revolving credit agreement of
$1,653,234, offset by scheduled payments under term and subordinated debt of
$577,405 and cash received by the exercise of certain of the Company's options
and warrants of $601,623.

The Company expects to continue to finance its operations through cash flow
generated from operations, borrowings under the Company's bank lines of credit
and credit from its suppliers.

SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements contained in Universal Automotive Industries, Inc. (the
"Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. The
application of these policies may require management to make judgments and
estimates about the amounts reflected in the financial statements. Management
uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates
and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different
assumptions and estimates.

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). Under SFAS 142, we are
no longer required to amortize goodwill and other intangible assets with
indefinite lives, but will be subject to periodic testing for impairment.
Effective January 1, 2002, we have adopted SFAS 142 and discontinued the
amortization of goodwill balances and intangible assets with indefinite useful
lives. We assessed our goodwill for impairment and will test for impairment at
least annually thereafter.

In October 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS
144"). SFAS 144 establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. SFAS 144
superseded Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,"
and APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the
Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." The provisions of SFAS 144 are
effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption
permitted, and in general are to be applied prospectively. We have adopted SFAS
144 effective January 1, 2002.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
143, "Accounting for Obligations Associated with the Retirement of Long-Lived
Assets" ("SFAS 143"). SFAS 143 establishes accounting standards for the
recognition and measurement of an asset retirement obligation and its associated
asset cost. It also provides accounting guidance for legal obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. SFAS 143 is
effective in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with early adoption
permitted. We plan to adopt SFAS 143 effective January 1, 2003. We have not
determined the effect of adopting SFAS 143 on results of operations or financial
position.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company believes that it does not have significant exposure to market risk
associated with derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments,
or derivative commodity instruments. The Company had previously utilized only
limited derivative financial instruments and did not use them for trading
purposes and has never used derivative commodity instruments. At June 30, 2002,
there were no such derivative instruments. The fair value of financial
instruments, other than debt instruments, closely approximates their carrying
value. Because the interest rate of the revolving loan and the term loan with
LaSalle National Bank adjusts with the changes in the market rate of interest,
the Company believes that the fair value is equivalent to the carrying value.
The Company believes that the interest rate of 7.0% on the subordinated
debenture is approximately equal to the current rate available for similar debt.
Accordingly, the fair value of this debenture approximates its carrying value.

PART II  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEMS 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We have been named, along with at least 100 other defendants, in four lawsuits
in Madison County, Illinois. The lawsuits name most of the major domestic
manufacturers and distributors of brake parts, among others. The counts against
us allege negligence (Count I) and willful and wanton conduct (Count II)
regarding asbestos exposure over extended periods of time. We understand that
plaintiffs' attorney can be expected to file at least ten more of these suits,
and in all likelihood we will be named as a defendant in the new lawsuits. Our
answer in each of these suits is not yet due. Two were filed in late June and
the other two were filed in mid July. We have referred these cases to
experienced asbestos toxic tort counsel. We believe we have a good faith defense
in each case and expect to file answers or other pleadings denying liability in
the near future. Our current liability insurance policy does not cover asbestos
related claims. We have not yet established a reserve against potential
liability with respect to these lawsuits.

ITEM 2 AND 3 ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO THE COMPANY IN THIS REPORT

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

On June 20, 2002, Universal Automotive Industries, Inc. held its annual meeting
