                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The consolidated financial statements included herein which have been
     prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
     regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, include the accounts
     of IIC Industries, Inc. and all material majority-owned subsidiaries
     (collectively the "Company"). All material intercompany transactions and
     balances have been eliminated. Certain information and footnote disclosures
     normally 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 consolidated financial statements contain
     all adjustments which are those of a normal recurring accrual nature and
     disclosures necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
     Company as of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and the results of
     operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and June
     30, 1998.

NOTE B - FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

     Investor Rt ("Investor"), a majority-owned subsidiary, uses the local
     currency, the Hungarian forint, as its functional currency and translates
     all assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates, all income and
     expense accounts at average rates and records adjustments resulting from
     the translation in a separate component of shareholders' equity.

     The Israel Tractors and Equipment Company Limited ("Israel Tractor"), a
     wholly-owned subsidiary, uses the US dollar as the functional currency,
     since the dollar is the currency in which most of the significant business
     of Israel Tractor is conducted, or to which it is linked. Balton C.P.
     Limited ("Balton"), a majority-owned subsidiary, uses the US dollar as the
     functional currency for some of its operations, since the subsidiaries in
     Nigeria, Ghana and Zambia operate in hyperinflationary economies. These
     subsidiaries translate monetary assets and liabilities at historical rates.
     Income and expense accounts are translated at the rate of exchange
     prevailing at the date of transaction, except that depreciation is
     translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation
     of these entities are included in results of operations. The remaining
     Balton subsidiairies, which operate in Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya and the Cote
     D'Ivoire, use the local currencies, as their functional currency and
     translate all assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates, all income
     and expense accounts at average rates and record adjustments resulting from
     the translation in a separate component of shareholders' equity.

     Transactions arising in a foreign currency are translated into the
     functional currency at the rate of exchange effective at the date of the
     transaction and gains or losses are included in results of operations.

NOTE D - CONTINGENCIES

     The Company has given a guarantee to the bankers of Balton amounting to
     $2.1 million. The guarantee is in respect of various outstanding letters of
     credit given by the bankers of certain of Balton's creditors. The Company
     has also agreed to indemnify a co-guarantor for any losses accumulating to
     $735,000.

     Balton has given guarantees to third parties in the amount of approximately
     $1,600,000.

     Investor and certain subsidiaries are potentially liable with respect to
     certain guarantees of debt and other financial instruments of other related
     and nonrelated companies to the extent of approximately $8.9 million.

NOTE E - INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE

     At June 30, 1999, the Company's effective ownership percentage of Danubius,
     Rt. ("Danubius"), a publicly traded company, was approximately 37% at a
     cumulative cost of approximately $37 million.

     Danubius owns a number of hotels in Hungary and specializes in spa
     facilities.

                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE E (CONTINUED)

     Accordingly, the Company accounted for this investment under the equity
     method at June 30, 1999. Under this method,the investment is carried at
     cost plus the Company's share of earnings or losses less distributions.
     Since the Company's share of the underlying net assets of Danubius
     exceeded the cost at the various purchase dates, the excess of the fair
     value of the net assets acquired over the cost is amortized over a period
     of forty years.

     The following is summarized financial information of Danubius (in
     thousands), which was prepared in accordance with international accounting
     standards. (See the Investor section of Management's Discussion and
     Analysis) There were no significant differences between international
     accounting standards and generally accepted accounting standards in the
     United States:

NOTE F- NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
     Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS No. 133"), "Accounting for
     Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 establishes
     accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for
     hedging activities and is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
     beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company does not expect that the
     adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have a significant impact on the Company's
     results of operations.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
----------------------------------

     Net Sales. Net Sales on a consolidated basis for the fiscal quarter ended
June 30, 1999 decreased by approximately $21 million as compared to the
comparable period in 1998. The decrease is primarily due to the rationalization
of Investor's agricultural commodity business.

     Gross Profit. Gross Profit on a consolidated basis for the fiscal quarter
ended June 30, 1999 increased by approximately $1.5 million or approximately 6%,
to approximately $24.9 million, or approximately 27% of Net Sales, from
approximately $23.4 million, or approximately 21% of Net Sales, in the
corresponding period in 1998. This increase was mainly attributable to the
rationalization of Investor's agricultural commodity business.

     Operating income. Operating income on a consolidated basis for the first
fiscal half of 1999 increased by approximately $1.3 million, to $3.1 million, or
approximately 3.4% of net sales, from approximately $1.9 million, or
approximately 1.6% of Net Sales for the corresponding period in 1998. This
increase was principally due to the rationalization of Investor's agricultural
commodity business.

     Interest income. Interest income decreased for the first half by $414,000,
or approximately 42%, to $565,000. This decrease was principally due to lower
cash balances and lower rates of interest in the various countries in which
the Company's operations are located.

     Interest expense. Interest expense in the first half decreased by $944,000,
or approximately 54%, to approximately $816,000 due to the decrease in bank
loans and lower rates of interest.

     Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interests Income before Income
Taxes and Minority Interest in the first fiscal half of 1999 was approximately
$3,886,000, compared to Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interest in the
first fiscal half of 1998 of approximately $2,811,000.

     Minority Interests. The value of the Minority Interests for the first
fiscal half of 1999 increased by $887,000 as compared to the first fiscal half
of 1998 as a result of the rationalization of Investor's agricultural commodity
business.

     Net Income. Net Income for the first fiscal half of 1999 was approximately
$2,324,000, compared to Net Income in the first fiscal half of 1998 of
approximately $1,257,000.

       INVESTOR
       --------

     The operations of three of the Company's segments are conducted in Hungary
through Investor. Investor's business is significantly affected by general
conditions in Hungary.

     Vehicle Sales and Service Segment
     ---------------------------------

     o   Net Sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased by
         approximately $573,000, or approximately 9%, as compared to the
         corresponding period in 1998.

     o   There was Income before Minority Interests and Income Taxes for the six
         months ended June 30, 1999 of $211,000 as compared to a gain of
         $143,000 in the corresponding period in 1998.

     The increase in Net Sales and in Income before Income Taxes and Minority
Interests was primarily due to increased marketing activity resulting in more
vehicles being sold, while maintaining the margin.



                                       15
<PAGE>


Processing/Storage of Agricultural Products Segment
---------------------------------------------------

     o   Net Sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 decreased by
         approximately $28 million or 66%, as compared to the corresponding
         period in 1998. The decrease in Net Sales was primarily due to the
         rationalization of the agricultural commodity trading business.

     o   The Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interest for the six months
         ended June 30, 1999 was $359,000 compared to a Loss before Income Taxes
         and Minority Interest of ($653,000) for the corresponding period in
         1998. This increase in income was primarily due to the rationalization
         of the agricultural commodity trading business.

Other Industries
----------------

     o   Net Sales for the first half ended June 30, 1999 increased by
         approximately $6.3 million as compared to the corresponding period in
         1998.

     o   The Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interest was approximately
         $846,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to income of
         approximately $1,324,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The
         decrease in income arose primarily due to higher interest costs and the
         effect on earnings of the devaluation of the Forint.

         ISRAEL TRACTOR: TRACTORS AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT SEGMENT
         ----------------------------------------------------

     o   Net Sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 decreased by $1.5
         million,or approximately 5.6% as compared to the corresponding period
         in 1998. This decrease was due to a decrease in demand for the
         Company's products.

     o   The Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interest for the six months
         ended June 30, 1999 was $721,000 as compared to $231,000 for the
         corresponding period in 1998 as a result of a reduction of expenses.

        BALTON CP: AGRICULTURAL, COMMUNICATIONS AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT SEGMENT
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------

     o   Net Sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased by
         approximately $1.2 million or approximately 3.5%, as compared to the
         corresponding period in 1998. This was due to increased demand for the
         Company's products.

     o   Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interests for the six months
         ended June 30, 1999 decreased by approximately $17,000, as compared to
         the corresponding period in 1998.

INCOME TAXES

The Company may be subject to tax in some or all of the foreign countries in
which it has operations. However, foreign taxes imposed on the Company's income
may qualify as a foreign income tax and therefore be eligible for credit against
the Company's United States income tax liability subject to certain limitations
set out in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or alternatively, for
deduction against income in determining such liability). The limitations set out
in the Code include, among others, computation rules under which foreign tax
credits allowable with respect to specific classes of income cannot exceed the
United States federal income taxes otherwise payable with respect to each class
of income. Foreign income taxes exceeding the credit limitation for the year of
payment or accrual can be carried back for two taxable years and forward for
five taxable years, in order to reduce United States federal income taxes,
subject to the credit limitations applicable in each of such years. Other
restrictions on the foreign tax credit include a prohibition on the use of the
credit to reduce liability for the United States corporate alternative minimum
taxes by more than 90%.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company has financed its operations through funds generated internally
and through cash and cash equivalents available at the beginning of 1999. At
June 30, 1999, IIC Industries Inc., (the "Parent Company"), and its wholly-owned
Israel Tractor subsidiary, had working capital of $25.8 million, including cash
and cash equivalents of $7.7 million. Cash of subsidiaries that are not
wholly-owned (including the Investor Group and the Balton CP Group) is generally
not available for use by the Parent Company or other subsidiaries (except to the
extent paid to the Parent Company as reimbursement for general overhead paid by
the Parent Company or as management fees) other than in the form of dividends,
if and when declared. Dividends to the Parent Company from its Israel Tractor
subsidiary are subject to a withholding tax of 15% to 25%. The Parent Company
does not expect to receive cash dividends or other distributions in the
foreseeable future from any of its subsidiaries.

     At June 30, 1999, Israel Tractor, Investor and Balton had outstanding
short-term indebtedness of approximately $3.6 million, $5.7 million and $1.2
million, respectively.

     At June 30, 1999, Israel Tractor, Investor and Balton had unused lines of
short-term credit of $3.4 million, $11.4 million and $6.5 million, respectively.

     During the first half of 1999, Israel Tractor, Investor, and Balton made
capital expenditures of $331,000; $830,000 and $646,000, respectively, for the
purchase of equipment and vehicles and improvements to property. Such
expenditures were made from internally generated funds. At June 30, 1999, the
Company had no significant capital commitments.

INFLATION

     Inflation has been a persistent aspect of the Hungarian economy in recent
years, although the annual rate of inflation has been predictable and has
therefore been taken into account by the government and private businesses.
Inflation has contributed to the devaluation of the Hungarian currency and has
therefore had an effect on Investor's financial condition.

     Inflation in Israel was moderate in 1998 and during the first half of 1999,
and therefore did not significantly affect operations in that country.
Furthermore, there was a revaluation of the Israeli shekel against the U.S.
Dollar in the first six months of 1999 of 2.7%.

     Significant rates of inflation persisted in the African countries where
Balton CP operates, triggering significant devaluations of local currencies.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS No. 133"), "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities and is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 1999. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No.
133 will have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

         In July 1996, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued EITF 96-14, "Accounting for the Costs
Associated with Modifying Computer Software for the Year 2000," which requires
that costs associated with modifying computer software for the Year 2000 be
expensed as incurred.

The Company is in the process of conducting a comprehensive review of its
systems, equipment, product and services, suppliers, customers and building
facilities to identify its exposure to any adverse impact of Year 2000
non-compliance. The Company has implemented or will implement procedures that it
deems necessary to safeguard the Company from computer-related issues associated
with adverse effects as a result of improperly recognizing the millennial date
change.



                                       18
<PAGE>

The Company believes, based upon its review and efforts to date, that external
and internal remediation costs to be incurred for the modification of
internal-use software to address Year 2000 issues will not be material. These
cost estimates include the costs of external contractors, non-capitalizable
purchases of software and hardware, and the direct cost of internal employees
working on Year 2000 projects. The Company's cost estimate does not include the
cost of implementing contingency plans, which are in the process of being
developed, and also does not include any potential litigation or warranty costs
related to Year 2000 issues if the Company's remediation efforts are not
successful.

The Company has undertaken a program to alert its suppliers and dealers of Year
2000 issues. Based on its contacts with suppliers and dealers, the Company
believes that a majority of our most important suppliers are Year 2000
compliant, and the Company anticipates that most of its dealers will be Year
2000 compliant by mid-1999. The Company will continue to work with its remaining
suppliers and its dealers throughout 1999 to secure Year 2000 compliance by
December 31, 1999. Based on third-party representations and internal testing,
and subject to the Company's ongoing compliance efforts, the costs and
uncertainties relating to timely resolution of Year 2000 issues applicable to
the Company's business and operations are not reasonably expected by the Company
to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, cash
flows or results of operations. For those suppliers and dealers that have not
adequately responded to our Year 2000 concerns, we are following up to
ultimately achieve an acceptable level of compliance within our supply chain. As
there can be no assurance that an acceptable level of Year 2000 compliance will
be achieved, the Company is in the process of developing contingency plans to
address potential issues.

Based upon the Company's review and efforts to date, the Company currently
anticipates completion of critical Year 2000 compliance issues by mid-1999, and
the Company plans to continue integration testing throughout the balance of
1999. If the Company's Year 2000 compliance efforts, as well as the efforts of
the Company's suppliers and dealers, individually and in the aggregate, are not
successful, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position, cash flows and results of operations. Factors that could cause actual
results to differ include unanticipated supplier or dealer failures, disruption
of utilities, transportation or telecommunications breakdowns, foreign or
domestic governmental failures, as well as unanticipated failures on our part to
address Year 2000 related issues. The most likely worst case scenario for the
Company in light of these risks would involve a potential loss in sales
resulting from order, production and shipping delays throughout the Company's
supply chain caused by Year 2000 related disruptions. The degree of sales loss
impact would depend on the severity of the disruption, the time required to
correct it, whether the sales loss was temporary or permanent, and the degree to
which our primary competitors were also impacted by the disruption. The Company
is in the process of developing Year 2000 contingency plans that will be
designed to mitigate the impact on the Company if its Year 2000 compliance
efforts are not successful. The targeted completion date for the Company's
contingency planning is the end of the third quarter of 1999. The Company's
contingency plans may include the use of alternative systems and
non-computerized approaches to our business including manual procedures for
machine operation, collecting and reporting of its business information, as
well as alternative sources of supply. At this time, the Company has not
determined whether it will be necessary to stockpile inventory or supplies as
part of its contingency planning.

The information included in this "Year 2000" section represents forward-looking
statements and involves risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results
to differ materially from those in the forward-

looking statements. The Company has evaluated the impact of the Year 2000 issue
on the business and does not expect to incur significant costs with year 2000
compliance. The Company believes that all software and hardware requirements to
enable it to cope with year 2000 issue have been or are being currently
implemented. However, there can be no assurance that unanticipated costs may
arise in implementing these requirements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

DISCLOSURE ABOUT FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived from foreign operations.
As such, its income is significantly affected by fluctuations in currency
exchange rates and by currency controls. Most of the countries where the Company
operates such as Hungary and several African countries do not have freely
convertible currencies and their currencies have been subject to devaluations in
recent years. In particular, during 1998, the income from the Company's
Hungarian, African and Israeli subsidiaries was significantly reduced by losses
arising from foreign exchange transactions due to significant currency
devaluations against the U.S. dollar. The Hungarian currency, which floats
against a basket of two currencies (the U.S. dollar and the European Currency
Unit) underwent devaluations against the U.S. dollar at the rate of 7% during
1998. Since the beginning of 1999, the Hungarian currency has been further
devalued by approximately 11% against the U.S. Dollar. Since the functional
currency for Investor is the Forint, these devaluations have resulted in certain
currency translation adjustments directly impacting stockholders' equity.
Furthermore, certain African countries such as Nigeria, Ghana & Zambia operate
in hyper-inflationary economies, and, the Israeli shekel devalued 17.6% against
the U.S. dollar in 1998, even though the devaluation was modest in previous
years. Since the beginning of 1999, the Israeli shekel has been revalued by
approximately 2.7% against the U.S. Dollar.

Derivative financial instruments are utilized by the Company to reduce foreign
exchange risk and price risk relating to its heavy equipment distribution and
agricultural commodity business. The Company does not hold or issue derivative
financial instruments for trading purposes.

Israel Tractor enters into foreign currency forward contracts and call option
contracts to reduce the impact of fluctuations of certain currencies against the
U.S. dollar. Gains and losses resulting from such transactions are reflected in
the results of operations. These contracts reduce exposure to currency movements
resulting primarily from nondollar-denominated trade receivables and the Israeli
tax effects of dollar-denominated trade purchases.

At June 30, 1999, Israel Tractor had foreign currency forward contracts, with
notional values of $5 million, to purchase and sell Israeli shekels. All of the
contracts mature in the next six months.

Current pricing models were used to estimate the fair values of foreign currency
forward contracts, and call options. The counterparties to these contracts are
creditworthy multinational commercial banks or other financial institutions,
which are recognized market makers.

DISCLOSURE ABOUT INTEREST RATE RISK

          The Company is subject to market risk from exposure to changes in
interest rates based on its financing, investing, and cash management
activities. The Company utilizes a balanced mix of debt maturities along with
both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to manage its exposures to changes in
interest rates. The Company does not expect changes in interest rates to have a
material effect on income or cash flows in 1999, although there can be no
assurances that interest rates will not significantly change.
