For the First Quarter Ended March 31, 1996 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.   Basis of Presentation of Interim Period Statements

     The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared
     by SMC Corporation (the "Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of
     the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
     disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
     condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion
     of management, the financial statements include all adjustments, consisting
     only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of
     the results for the interim periods reported. The financial statements
     should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and
     notes thereto included in the 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with
     the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for an
     interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations
     for a full year.

2.   Inventories

     Inventories by major classification are as follows (in thousands):


                                                   December 31,  March 31,

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

3.   Net Income Per Share

     Net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
     shares outstanding during the period after giving effect to stock options
     and warrants which are considered to be common stock equivalents as such
     securities aggregate more than 3% of shares outstanding and thus are
     considered dilutive.

Results of Operations

     The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, selected
consolidated statement of income data, expressed as a percentage of sales, and
the percentage change in such data from the comparable prior period.

Net income.......................        3.0%         2.4%         (8.2)

     Sales increased 16.2% to $50.1 million for the first quarter of 1997 from
$43.1 million for the comparable period in 1996. The increase was largely the
result of a 11.4% unit sales increase to 448 units, up from 402 in the prior
year. The unit increase is principally the result of the Company's expanded
product offerings.

     Gross profit margin increased $624,000 (10.5%) in the first quarter of 1997
compared to 1996, but decreased as a percentage of sales from 13.9% to 13.2%.
Gross margin percentage was lower due to the negative impact of start-up
operations at the Company's operations in Harney County, Oregon.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 19.4% to $4.4
million for the first quarter of 1997 from $3.7 million in the comparable period
of 1996. Proportionately, these costs increased more than sales due to the
commencement of operations at the Company's newly formed operations in Harney
County, Oregon.

     Given the factors affecting gross margin and selling, general and
administrative expenses, operating income decreased 3.9% to $2.2 million for the
first quarter of 1997 from $2.3 million in the comparable period of 1996.

     Interest expense increased 72.8% to $273,000 for the first quarter of 1997
from $158,000 in the comparable period of 1996. The increase was due to higher
borrowings on the Company's revolving lines of credit during the first quarter
of 1997 compared to 1996.

                                        8

The borrowings on the line of credit were substantially repaid by March 31, 1997
when finished goods inventories were lowered. Compared to the first quarter of
1996, higher levels of finished goods inventory were held in the first quarter
of 1997, thus requiring more borrowing on the Company's line of credit.

     Other income was $62,000 for the first quarter of 1997 compared to $37,000
for the first quarter of 1996. There was no significant change in the
composition of the balance in other income between the two periods.

     For the first quarter of 1997, the effective tax rate was 40.0%, resulting
in an income tax provision of $794,000. For the first quarter of 1996, the
Company's income tax provision was $868,000, also at an effective rate of 40%.

     Net income after tax for the first quarter of 1997 was $1.2 million, down
from 1996's net income of $1.3 million.

     The Company's revenues historically have been subject to some seasonal
fluctuation. Demand for high-line motor coaches tends to increase with the
beginning of the new model year, which occurs during the Company's third quarter
ending September 30.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     During the first quarter of 1997, SMC generated $6.7 million in cashflows
from operations while its working capital position decreased from $5.5 million
at December 31, 1996 to $5.4 million at March 31, 1997 (including cash and cash
equivalents of $287,000). Cash generated from operations during the first
quarter of 1997 was used to finance capital expenditures of approximately $1.4
million, to pay down the line of credit facility by approximately $4.8 million,
and to service term debt payments of approximately $485,000.

     The Company anticipates that its aggregate capital expenditures for 1997
will be approximately $3.0 million. The Company plans to use cash generated from
operations and issuance of long-term debt to fund these expenditures.

     The Company has lines of credit of $10.0 million ($9.0 million of which is
available at March 31, 1997), plus an additional $5.1 million equipment
financing line of credit, of which $3.1 million is available at March 31, 1997.
Amounts outstanding under these lines of credit bear interest at annual rates
ranging from prime (8.5% at March 31, 1997) to prime plus 1/4% and are secured
by all assets not specifically identified in other financing obligations. The
terms of the revolving credit and equipment financing agreements require
compliance with certain financial covenants and other covenants which provide
that the Company receive consent from the lender to declare or pay dividends in
cash, stock or other property. The covenants also include restrictions relating
to (1) mergers, consolidations and sale of assets, (2) guarantees by the Company
of debts or obligations of other persons or entities, and (3) acquisition of the
Company's own stock. The Plan of Reorganization

                                        9

<PAGE>


pursuant to which the Company completed the acquisition of Beaver also prohibits
the Company from paying dividends if Beaver defaults on payment obligations
under the Plan. The Company does not believe any of these covenants will have a
material impact on the Company's ability to meet its cash obligations. The
Company was not in compliance with all covenants and agreements at March 31,
1997. A waiver has been obtained from the Company's primary lending institution
through June 30, 1997.

     Most dealer purchases of motor coaches from the Company are financed under
flooring financing arrangements between the dealer and a bank or finance
company. Under these flooring arrangements, the financing institution lends the
dealer all or substantially all of the wholesale purchase price of a motor coach
and retains a security interest in the coach purchased. These financing
arrangements provide that, for a period of time after a coach is financed
(generally 12 to 18 months), if the dealer defaults on its payment or other
obligations to the lender, the Company is obligated to repurchase the dealer's
inventory for the amount then due from the dealer plus, in certain
circumstances, costs incurred by the lender in connection with repossession of
the inventory. The repurchase price may be more than the resale value of the
coach. The Company's contingent liability under its repurchase obligations
varies from time to time. As of March 31, 1997, the Company estimates its total
contingent liability under repurchase obligations was approximately $90.4
million. To date, losses incurred by the Company pursuant to repurchase
obligations have not been material. The Company cannot predict with certainty
its future losses, if any, pursuant to repurchase obligations, and these amounts
may vary materially from the expenditures historically made by the Company.
Furthermore, even in circumstances where losses in connection with repurchase
obligations are not material, a repurchase obligation can represent a
significant cash requirement for the Company.
