Forward Looking Statements or Information

Certain statements in this Form 10-Q, including information set forth under the
caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations", constitute "Forward-Looking Statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements are typically
punctuated by words or phrases such as "anticipates," "estimate," "should,"
"may," "management believes," and words or phrases of similar import. The
Company cautions investors that such forward-looking statements included in this
Form 10-Q, or hereafter included in other publicly available documents filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to the Company's
stockholders and other publicly available statements issued or released by the
Company involve significant risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could
cause the Company's actual results, performance (financial or operating) or
achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance
(financial or operating) or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences could include, but are not limited to, changes in demand, prices,
and the raw materials cost of zinc; changes in economic conditions of the
various markets the Company serves, as well as the other risks detailed herein
and in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company believes that the important factors set forth in the Company's
cautionary statements at Exhibit 99 to this Form 10-Q could cause such a
material difference to occur and investors are referred to Exhibit 99 for such
cautionary statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of North
American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc. and subsidiary (the "Company") as of March
31, 2005, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive income and of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March
31, 2005 and 2004. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making
inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective
of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to such condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to
be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of
North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31,
2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein); and in our report dated April 12, 2005, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion,
the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance
sheet as of December 31, 2004 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in
relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                                    UNAUDITED


NOTE 1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this report
have been prepared by North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc. (the
"Company") pursuant to its understanding of the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting and include all normal
and recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
a fair presentation. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations for interim reporting. The Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
However, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. The financial data for
the interim periods presented may not necessarily reflect the results to be
anticipated for the complete year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America 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 balance
sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for each of the
periods. Actual results will be determined based on the outcome of future events
and could differ from the estimates. The Company's sole business is hot dip
galvanizing and coatings which is conducted through its wholly owned subsidiary,
North American Galvanizing Company ("NAG").

The fair value of options granted under the Company's stock option plans was
estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
assumptions used:

                                                         Quarter Ended March 31

In the first quarter of 2005, the Company issued stock options for 50,000 shares
at $2.50 per share, and issued stock options for 25,000 shares at $1.70 per
share in the first quarter of 2004.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), which is a revision of SFAS
No. 123. This revised statement establishes accounting standards for all
transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and
services focusing primarily on accounting for transactions with employees and
carrying forward prior guidance for share-based payments for transactions with
non-employees.

SFAS No. 123(R) eliminates the intrinsic value measurement method of accounting
in APB Opinion 25 and generally requires measuring the cost of the employee
services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the
fair value of the award on the date of the grant. The standard requires grant
date fair value to be estimated using either an option-pricing model which is
consistent with the terms of the award or a market observed price, if such a
price exists. Such costs must be recognized over the period during which an
employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The standard
also requires estimating the number of instruments that will ultimately be
issued, rather than accounting for forfeitures as they occur.

The effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) was originally to be the first reporting
period beginning after June 15, 2005, however in April 2005, the Securities and
Exchange Commission adopted a new rule amending the effective date to January 1,
2006. The Company expects to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) effective January 1, 2006.
SFAS No. 123(R) permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a
"modified prospective" method, or a "modified retrospective" method. Under the
"modified prospective" method, compensation cost is recognized in the financial
statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS
No. 123(R) for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on
the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the
effective date of SFAS No. 123(R). Under the "modified retrospective" method,
the requirements are the same as under the "modified prospective" method, but
also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based
on pro forma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS No. 123. The Company plans
to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) under the modified prospective method on January 1,
2006 and does not anticipate the adoption to have a material effect on the
consolidated financial statements of the Company.

NOTE 4.    INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share for the periods presented are computed based
upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per
common share for the periods presented are based on the weighted average shares
outstanding, adjusted for stock unit grants and for the assumed exercise of
stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method.

The options excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share, due to
the option price being higher than the share market value, are 63,500 and
311,500 at March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

In February 2005, the Company amended a three-year bank credit agreement that
was scheduled to expire in December 2007 and extended its maturity to February
28, 2008. Subject to borrowing base limitations, the amended agreement provides
(i) an $8,000,000 maximum revolving credit facility for working capital and
general corporate purposes and (ii) a $5,001,000 term loan that combined the
outstanding principal balance of the existing term loan with additional
financing for the purchase of assets of a galvanizing facility (Note 2).

Term loan payments are based on a seven-year amortization schedule with equal
monthly payments of principal and interest, and a final balloon payment in
February 2008. The term loan may be prepaid without penalty. The revolving line
of credit may be paid down without penalty, or additional funds may be borrowed
up to the maximum line of credit. At March 31, 2005, the Company had unused
borrowing capacity of $482,000 under the line of credit, based on the underlying
borrowing base of accounts receivable and inventory. At March 31, 2005,
$12,060,000 was outstanding under the bank credit agreement, and $400,000 was
reserved for outstanding irrevocable letters of credit to secure payment of
current and future workers' compensation claims.

Substantially all of the Company's accounts receivable, inventories, fixed
assets and the common stock of its subsidiary are pledged as collateral under
the agreement, and the credit agreement is secured by a full and unconditional
guaranty from NAG. Amounts borrowed under the agreement bear interest at the
prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank or the LIBOR rate, at the option of the
Company, subject to a rate margin adjustment determined by the Company's
consolidated debt service coverage ratio. The interest rate on these borrowings
was 6.00% at March 31, 2005. In the event the Company fails to maintain a
consolidated debt service coverage ratio for any fiscal quarter of at least 1.25
to 1.00, the Applicable LIBOR Rate Margin will be increased to 5.75% and the
Applicable Prime Rate Margin will be increased to 3.00%. Thereafter, the
increased rate margin will remain in effect until such time as the Company has
maintained a consolidated debt service coverage ratio greater than or equal to
1.25 to 1.00 for a subsequent fiscal quarter.

                                       11

In the event the Company fails to maintain a consolidated EBITDA to capital
expenditures plus current maturity of long-term debt ratio for any fiscal
quarter of not less than 1.00 to 1.00, the increase in the Applicable LIBOR Rate
Margin ranges from 3.75% to 5.75%, and the increase in the Applicable Prime Rate
Margin ranges from 1.00% to 3.00%.

The credit agreement requires the Company to maintain compliance with covenant
limits for current ratio, debt to tangible net worth ratio, debt service
coverage ratio and a capital expenditures ratio. At March 31, 2005, the Company
was in compliance with the covenants, except for the capital expenditures ratio
for which a waiver was obtained from the bank. The actual financial ratios
compared to the required ratios, were as follows: Current Ratio - actual 1.21 vs
minimum required of 1.0; Debt to Tangible Net Worth - actual 1.54 vs maximum
permitted of 2.5; Debt Service Coverage - actual 1.39 vs minimum permitted of
1.25; Capital Expenditures Ratio - actual 0.97 vs minimum required of 1.0.

NOTE 6.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has commitments with domestic and foreign zinc producers and brokers
to purchase zinc used in its hot dip galvanizing operations. Commitments for the
future delivery of zinc reflect rates then quoted on the London Metals Exchange
and are not subject to price adjustment or are based on such quoted prices at
the time of delivery. At March 31, 2005 the aggregate commitments for the
procurement of zinc at fixed prices were approximately $3.4 million. The Company
reviews these fixed price contracts for losses using the same methodology
employed to estimate the market value of its zinc inventory. The Company had
unpriced commitments for the purchase of approximately 5 million pounds of zinc
at March 31, 2005.

The Company's financial strategy includes evaluating the selective use of
derivative financial instruments to manage zinc and interest costs. As part of
its inventory management strategy, the Company expects to continue evaluating
hedging instruments to minimize the impact of zinc price fluctuations. The
Company had no derivative instruments required to be reported at fair value at
March 31, 2005 or December 31, 2004, and did not utilize derivatives in the
quarter ended March 31, 2005 or the year ended December 31, 2004, except for
those forward purchase agreements, which are accounted for as normal purchases.

The Company's total off-balance sheet contractual obligations at March 31, 2005,
consist of $2,509,000 for long-term operating leases for vehicles, office space,
office equipment, galvanizing facilities and galvanizing equipment and
approximately $3,400,000 for zinc purchase commitments. The various leases for
galvanizing facilities, including option renewals, expire from 2005 to 2017. A
lease for galvanizing equipment expires in 2007.

NAG was notified in 1997 by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
("IEPA") that it was a potentially responsible party ("PRP") under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information
System ("CERCLIS") in connection with cleanup of an abandoned site formerly
owned by Sandoval Zinc Co. Since then approximately 30 additional PRPs have been
identified by the IEPA. A

                                       12
<PAGE>

number of the PRPs (approximately 12 to 15) have agreed to work together and
with IEPA on a voluntary basis. The Company has been and continues to
participate in this volunteer group. The group has retained consultants and
legal representatives familiar with IEPA regulations. This volunteer group, with
its consultants, has cooperated with IEPA in attempting to better define the
environmental issues associated with the Sandoval Zinc site. To that extent,
this voluntary group prepared and submitted to IEPA in August 2000 a work plan.
The purpose of this work plan is to attempt to define the extent of
environmental remediation that might be required, assess risks, and review
alternatives to addressing potential remediation. The IEPA has yet to respond to
this proposed work plan or suggest any other course of action, and there has
been no activity in regards to this issue during 2005. Therefore, the Company
has no basis for determining potential exposure and estimated remediation costs
at this time.

On August 30, 2004, the Company was informed by counsel for the Metropolitan
Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (the "Water District") that the
Water District had, on August 25, 2004 filed a Second Amended Complaint in the
United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division,
naming North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc. (formerly known as Kinark
Corporation) as an added defendant. Counsel for the Water District also gave the
Company notice of the Water District's intent to file (or amend the Complaint to
include) a Citizens Suit under the Resource Compensation and Recovery Act
("RCRA") against North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc., pursuant to
Section 7002 of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. Section 6972. This Second Amended Complaint
seeks enforcement of an August 12, 2004 default judgment in the amount of
$1,810,463 against Lake River Corporation and Lake River Holding Company, Inc.
in connection with the operation of a storage terminal by Lake River Corporation
in violation of environmental laws. Lake River Corporation conducted business as
a subsidiary of the Company until June 30, 2000, at which time Lake River
Corporation was sold to Lake River Holding Company, Inc. and ceased to be a
subsidiary of the Company. The Second Amended Complaint asserts that prior to
the sale of Lake River Corporation, the Company directly operated the Lake River
facility and, accordingly, seeks to have the Court pierce the corporate veil of
Lake River Corporation and enforce the default judgment order of August 12, 2004
against the Company. The Company denies the assertions set forth in the Water
District's Complaint and on November 13, 2004 filed a partial motion for
dismissal of the Second Amended Complaint.

In December 2004, the Water District filed a Third Amended complaint in the
litigation, adding two claims: (1) a common law claim for nuisance; and (2) a
claim under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, in which the
Water District argues that the Company is responsible for conditions on the
plaintiff's property that present an "imminent and substantial endangerment to
human health and the environment." In January 2005 and March 2005, the Company
filed partial motions to dismiss plaintiff's third amended complaint, in the
United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division.
On April 12, 2005, the Court issued an order denying in part and granting in
part the Company's partial motion to dismiss plaintiff's third amended
complaint. The Company is reviewing the Court's order and expects to file an
appeal. The Company has denied any liability with respect to this claim and
intends to vigorously defend this case. At this time, the Company has not
determined the amount of any liability that may result from this matter or
whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

The lease term of a galvanizing facility occupied by Reinforcing Services, Inc.
("RSI"), a subsidiary of North American Galvanizing Company, expired July 31,
2003 and has not been renewed. RSI has exercised an option to purchase the
facility, and the landlord is contesting the Company's right to exercise this
option. RSI has filed a lawsuit against the landlord seeking enforcement of the
right to exercise the option. This litigation is in the discovery stage and
management expects there will be no disruption to its galvanizing business being
conducted at the facility.

The Company will continue to have additional environmental compliance costs
associated with operations in the galvanizing business. The Company is committed
to complying with the environmental legislation and regulations affecting its
operations. Due to the uncertainties associated with future environmental
technologies, regulatory interpretations, and prospective legislative activity,
management cannot reasonably quantify the Company's potential future costs in
this area.

The Company expenses or capitalizes, where appropriate, environmental
expenditures that relate to current operations as they are incurred. Such
expenditures are expensed when they are attributable to past operations and are
not expected to contribute to current or future revenue generation. The Company
records liabilities when remediation or other environmental assessment or
clean-up efforts are probable and the cost can be reasonably estimated.

Various litigation arising in the ordinary course of business is pending against
the Company. Management believes that resolution of the Company's litigation and
environmental matters should not materially affect the Company's consolidated
financial position or liquidity. Should future developments cause the Company to
record an additional liability for environmental matters, litigation or customer
claims, the recording of such a liability could have a material impact on the
results of operations for the period involved.

NOTE 7.    TREASURY STOCK

The Company did not issue any shares from Treasury in the first quarter of 2005.
In the first quarter of 2005, a program whereby Outside Directors received
shares of Company stock issued from Treasury as payment for their quarterly
board fee was replaced with a Director Stock Unit Program (Note 8). In the first
quarter of 2004, the Company issued 11,206 shares of its common stock from
Treasury to outside Directors of the Company as payment for their quarterly
board fee in lieu of cash payments. Those shares were valued at the average
closing price of North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc. common stock for a
prior 30-day period, as reported by the American Stock Exchange. Such shares
were issued pursuant to the Directors' prior election and notice to the Company
to receive up to all of their 2004 quarterly board fees in the Company's stock
in lieu of cash.

NOTE 8.    DIRECTOR STOCK UNIT PROGRAM

On January 1, 2005, the Company implemented the Director Stock Unit Program
(approved by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting held July 21, 2004) under
which a Director is required to defer 50% of his or her board fee and may elect
to defer up to 100% of his or her board fee, plus a matching contribution by the
Company that varies from 25% to 75% depending on the level of deferral. Such
deferrals are converted into

                                       14
<PAGE>

a stock unit grant, payable to the Director five years following the year of
deferral. All of the Company's Outside Directors have elected to defer 100% of
the annual board fee for 2005, and the Company's chief executive officer and
Inside Director has elected to defer a corresponding amount of his salary in
2005. Outside Directors currently receive an annual fee of $20,000, which
includes attendance at board meetings and service on committees of the board. In
the first quarter of 2005, fees and salary deferred by the Directors represented
a total of 26,250 stock unit grants valued at $2.00 per stock unit. The value of
a stock unit grant is the average of the closing prices for a share of the
Company's stock for the 10 trading days before the date the director fees
otherwise would have been payable in cash.

NORTH AMERICAN GALVANIZING & COATINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

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

GENERAL

North American Galvanizing is a leading provider of corrosion protection for
iron and steel components fabricated by its customers. Hot dip galvanizing is
the process of applying a zinc coating to fabricated iron or steel material by
immersing the material in a bath consisting primarily of molten zinc. Based on
the number of its operating plants, the Company is one of the largest merchant
market hot dip galvanizing companies in the United States.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, there were no significant changes to
the Company's critical accounting policies previously disclosed in Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2004.

On February 28, 2005, NAGalv-Ohio, Inc., a subsidiary North American Galvanizing
Company, purchased the hot-dip galvanizing assets of a galvanizing facility
located in Canton, Ohio. The transaction was structured as an asset purchase,
pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated February 28, 2005 by and between
NAGalv-Ohio, Inc., and the privately owned Gregory Industries, Inc. for all of
the plant, property and equipment of Gregory Industries' galvanizing operation.
Sales for the Canton galvanizing operation for its most recent fiscal year ended
May 28, 2004 were approximately $7.0 million. Operating results of the purchased
galvanizing business are included in the Company's financial statements
commencing from the date of the purchase on February 28, 2005.

The Company's galvanizing plants offer a broad line of services including
centrifuge galvanizing for small threaded products, sandblasting, chromate
quenching, polymeric coatings, and proprietary INFRASHIELDSM Coating Application
Systems for polyurethane protective linings and coatings over galvanized
surfaces. The Company's engineers and plant managers collaborate with steel
fabricators and design and engineering firms to provide customized assistance
with initial fabrication design, project estimates and steel chemistry
selection.

The Company's galvanizing and coating operations are composed of eleven
facilities located in Colorado, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee
and Texas. These facilities operate galvanizing kettles ranging in length from
16 feet to 62 feet, and have lifting capacities ranging from 12,000 pounds to
40,000 pounds.

The Company maintains a sales and service network coupled with its galvanizing
plants, supplemented by national account business development at the corporate
level. In a typical year, the Company will galvanize in excess of 300,000,000
pounds of steel products for approximately 1,800 customers nationwide.

All of the Company's sales are generated for domestic customers whose end
markets are principally in the United States. The Company markets its
galvanizing and coating services directly to its customers and does not utilize
agents or distributors. Although

                                       16
<PAGE>

hot dip galvanizing is considered a mature service industry, the Company is
actively engaged in developing new markets through participation in industry
trade shows, metals trade associations and presentation of technical seminars by
its national marketing service team.

Hot dip galvanizing provides metals corrosion protection for many product
applications used in commercial, construction and industrial markets. The
Company's galvanizing can be found in almost every major application and
industry that requires corrosion protection where iron or steel is used,
including the following end user markets:

     o    highway and transportation,
     o    power transmission and distribution,
     o    wireless and telecommunications,
     o    utilities,
     o    petrochemical processing,
     o    infrastructure including buildings, airports, bridges and power
          generation
     o    industrial grating,
     o    wastewater treatment; fresh water storage and transportation
     o    pulp and paper,
     o    pipe and tube,
     o    food processing,
     o    agricultural (irrigation systems)
     o    recreation (boat trailers, marine docks, stadium scaffolds)
     o    bridge and pedestrian handrail
     o    commercial and residential lighting poles
     o    original equipment manufactured products, including general
          fabrication

As a value-added service provider, the Company's revenues are directly
influenced by the level of economic activity in the various end markets that it
serves. Economic activity in those markets that results in the expansion and/or
upgrading of physical facilities (i.e., construction) may involve a time-lag
factor of several months before translating into a demand for galvanizing
fabricated components. Despite the inherent seasonality associated with large
project construction work, the Company maintains a relatively stable revenue
stream throughout the year by offering fabricators, large and small, reliable
and rapid turn-around service.

The Company records revenues when the galvanizing and customer billing processes
are completed. The Company generates all of its operating cash from such
revenues, and utilizes a line of credit secured by the underlying accounts
receivable and zinc inventory to facilitate working capital needs.

Each of the Company's galvanizing plants operate in a highly competitive
environment underscored by pricing pressures, primarily from other public and
privately-owned galvanizers and alternative forms of corrosion protection, such
as paint. The Company's long-term response to these challenges has been a
sustained strategy focusing on providing a reliable quality of galvanizing to
industry ASTM specifications and rapid turn-around time on every project, large
and small. Key to the success of this strategy is the Company's continuing
commitment and long-term record of reinvesting earnings to upgrade its
galvanizing facilities and provide technical innovations to

                                       17
<PAGE>

improve production efficiencies; and to construct new facilities when market
conditions present opportunities for growth. The Company is addressing long-term
opportunities to expand its galvanizing and coatings business through programs
to increase industry awareness of the proven, unique benefits of galvanizing for
metals corrosion protection. Each of the Company's independently operated
galvanizing plants is linked to a centralized control system involving sales
order entry, facility maintenance and operating procedures, quality assurance,
purchasing and credit and accounting that enable the plant to focus on providing
galvanizing and coating services in the most cost-effective manner.

The principal raw materials essential to the Company's galvanizing and coating
operations are zinc and various chemicals which are normally available for
purchase in the open market.

KEY INDICATORS

Key industries which historically have provided the Company some indication of
the potential demand for galvanizing in the near-term, (i.e., primarily within a
year) include highway and transportation, power transmission and distribution,
telecommunications and the level of quoting activity for regional metal
fabricators. In general, growth in the commercial/industrial sectors of the
economy generates new construction and capital spending which ultimately impacts
the demand for galvanizing.

Key operating measures utilized by the Company include new orders, zinc
inventory, tons of steel galvanized, revenue, pounds and labor costs per hour,
zinc usage related to tonnage galvanized, and lost-time safety performance.
These measures are reported and analyzed on various cycles, including daily,
weekly and monthly.

The Company utilizes a number of key financial measures to evaluate the
operations at each of its galvanizing plants, to identify trends and variables
impacting operating productivity and current and future business results, which
include: sales, gross profit, fixed and variable costs, selling and general
administrative expenses, operating cash flows, capital expenditures, interest
expense, and a number of ratios such as profit from operations and accounts
receivable turnover. These measures are reviewed by the Company's operating and
executive management monthly, or more frequently, and compared to prior periods,
the current business plan and to standard performance criteria, as applicable.

KEY DEVELOPMENTS

In the last three years, the Company reported a number of developments
supporting its strategic program to reposition its galvanizing business in the
national market.

In February 2005, the Company expanded galvanizing operations into the northeast
region of the United States with the purchase of the assets of a galvanizing
facility located in Canton, Ohio. This strategic expansion provides NAG an
important, established customer base of major fabricators serving industrial,
OEM, and highway markets as well as residential and commercial markets for
lighting poles. Canton's 52 foot long dipping kettle is designed to handle large
steel structures, such as bridge beams, utility poles and other steel structural
components that require galvanizing for extended-life corrosion

                                       18
<PAGE>

protection. The Canton plant also processes small parts used construction, such
as nuts and anchor rods, in a dedicated facility with a smaller 16 foot dipping
kettle and a spinner operation.

In January 2003, the Company opened its St. Louis galvanizing plant, replacing a
small plant at the same location. This large facility is providing NAG a
strategic basic for extending its geographic area of service. A 51-foot kettle
at this facility provides the largest galvanizing capacity in the St. Louis
region. In 2004, production tonnage at St. Louis more than doubled compared to
production at the plant it replace.

In January 2003, the Company expanded services at its Nashville galvanizing
plant with the installation of a state-of-the-art Spinner line to galvanize
small products, including bolts and threaded material.

In the third quarter of 2002, the Company announced the introduction of
INFRASHIELDSM Coating, a specialty polymer coating system that is designed to be
applied over hot dip galvanized material slated for harsh operating conditions.
The INFRASHIELDSM coating technology results in superior corrosion protection by
combining cathodic protection with a non-conductive coating.

2005 COMPARED TO 2004

Sales. Sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 increased 8.4% to $9,280,000
from sales of $8,558,000 for the first quarter of 2004. Higher sales for the
first quarter of 2005 reflect a one-month contribution of $683,000 from the
Canton, Ohio galvanizing facility that was purchased February 28, 2005. NAG
experienced sharply lower volume in the first two months of 2005 compared to the
same months a year ago, due to lower than expected demand from fabricators.
However, in March 2005 we began to experience the anticipated increase in
business projected by our customers, resulting in a 5.2% same

                                       19
<PAGE>

plant volume improvement over the same month a year ago. In the first quarter of
2005, our average selling prices for galvanizing and related coating services
remained relatively even with the average selling prices in the first quarter of
2004.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit of $2,438,000 for the first quarter of 2005 decreased
$115,000, or 4.5%, from $2,553,000 for the first quarter of 2004, reflecting
higher energy and raw material costs and the impact on productivity due to low
volume in January and February. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 26.3%
compared to 29.8% in 2004.

DEPRECIATION EXPENSE. Depreciation expense for the first quarter of 2005
decreased $65,000, or 9.5%, to $619,000 compared to $684,000 for the first
quarter of 2004. The decrease for 2005 relates primarily to assets becoming
fully depreciated. Depreciation as a percentage of sales was 6.7% in the first
quarter of 2005 compared to 8.0% in 2004.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE (SG&A) EXPENSES. SG&A increased $53,000, or
3.8%, in the first quarter of 2005 to $1,448,000 compared to $1,395,000 in the
first quarter of 2004. The increase for 2005 primarily relates to costs incurred
for increases in administrative staff, and higher legal, audit and director
fees. SG&A as a percentage of sales was 15.6% in the first quarter of 2005
compared to 16.3% in 2004.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased to $225,000 in the first quarter of
2005 from $161,000 in 2004, primarily due to higher interest rates on
variable-rate debt and higher debt related to the purchase of a galvanizing
facility in the first quarter of 2005.

INCOME TAXES. The Company's effective income tax rates for the first quarters of
2005 and 2004 were 33.6% and 37.0%, respectively. The rate for 2005 differed
from the federal statutory rate due to state income taxes and a minor adjustment
to prior estimates. The rate for 2004 differed primarily due to state income
taxes.

NET INCOME. For the first quarter of 2005, the Company reported net income of
$97,000 compared to net income of $210,000 for the first quarter of 2004. The
earnings per share for 2005 was $.01 per share, basic and fully diluted,
compared to $.03 per share, basic and fully diluted, for 2004.

2004 COMPARED TO 2003

SALES. North American Galvanizing's sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2004
were $8,558,000, an increase of 6.4% over sales of $8,040,000 for the same
period in 2003. Total production volume in the first quarter of 2004 increased
6.0% over the first quarter of 2003, reflecting modest increases in capital
goods spending and construction related demand for galvanizing. Slightly
stronger average selling prices, primarily due to product mix, also contributed
to increased sales revenue in the first quarter of 2004. In 2003, the lower
demand for galvanizing due to weaknesses in the economy adversely impacted North
American Galvanizing's sales. Over the course of 2003, we lowered our operating
break-even cost structure.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the first quarter of 2004 increased 25.3% to
$2,553,000, compared to $2,037,000 in the first quarter of 2003. Gross profit as
a percentage of sales increased to 29.8% from 25.3% in 2003, primarily due to
higher production volume and

                                       20
<PAGE>

an improved operating cost structure. Improved gross profit margins in the first
quarter of 2004, as compared to the first quarter of 2003, reflect the
contributions from increased production volume to cover fixed costs, lower costs
for insurance and natural gas, plus improved labor efficiency. Despite the
highly competitive environment for galvanizing, the Company expects the improved
gross profit margins achieved in the first-quarter of 2004 can be sustained,
provided demand for galvanizing does not abate.

DEPRECIATION EXPENSE. Depreciation expense for the first quarter of 2004 was
$684,000, compared to $775,000 for the same period a year ago. The decrease in
depreciation expense for 2004 is due to significant assets becoming fully
depreciated in 2003.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE (SG&A) EXPENSES. SG&A decreased 3.9% to
$1,395,000 in the first quarter of 2004, from $1,452,000 in 2003. The decrease
primarily reflects lower costs of insurance premiums of $58,000, lower sales and
administrative salary expense of $39,000, which were partially offset by
increased fees for legal services of $46,000. The Company anticipates its 2004
insurance costs will continue to compare favorably with 2003 due to a
restructuring of its insurance program, but travel expenses are expected to
increase in support of the Company's sales and marketing programs. In addition
to sales and service support teams assigned to each of its regional galvanizing
plants, NAG is committing corporate-level marketing resources to expand and
develop new national account business.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the first quarter of 2004 decreased by
$147,000 to $161,000. A number of factors contributed to the $147,000 reduction
in interest expense: lower average borrowings for working capital; lower average
interest rates on variable rate debt; reduction in term loan balances and lower
fees for letters of credit. Variable rate debt decreased from 4.5% to 4.25% as a
result of changes in the prime rate. The Company's average outstanding line of
credit borrowings for the first quarter of 2004 were $3,129,000 compared to
$4,035,000 for 2003. Interest expense also decreased due to a lower interest
rate on the Company's industrial revenue bonds. In September 2003, the Company
amended the bond agreement to more nearly reflect the interest rate earned by
the bondholders. The amendment provides that the bond trustee will evaluate the
interest account at the end of each calendar quarter and refund the excess
amount determined, if any, and rebate such excess to the Company. The Company
has elected to apply any such rebates to offset the cost of a letter of credit
related to the industrial revenue bonds. In the first quarter of 2004, the
Company was refunded excess bond interest of $41,000. There was no comparable
recognition of excess bond interest in the first quarter of 2003. The Company's
interest expense for the first quarter of 2004 was not impacted by inflation.

OTHER. In the first quarter of 2004, the Company liquidated its total investment
in equity securities and realized a gain of $25,000.

INCOME TAXES. The Company's effective income tax rates, including taxes related
to discontinued operations in 2003, for the first quarters of 2004 and 2003 were
37.9% and 41.9%, respectively. The rate for 2003 differed from the federal
statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes and adjustments to the
estimate of the deferred tax asset accounts. The rate for 2004 differed
primarily from the federal statutory rate due to state income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash flow from operations and borrowings under credit facilities
have consistently been adequate to fund its current facilities working capital
and capital spending requirements. During the three-month periods ended March
31, 2005 and 2004, operating cash flow and borrowings under credit facilities
have been the primary source of liquidity. The Company monitors working capital
and planned capital spending to assess liquidity and minimize cyclical cash
flow.

Cash flow from operating activities for the first three months of 2005 and 2004
was $203,000 and ($258,000), respectively. The increase of $461,000 in 2005 cash
flow from operations was due primarily to changes in working capital and
utilization of tax net operating loss carrybacks.

Cash of $4,522,000 used in 2005 investing activities through March 31 consisted
of $4,129,000 to acquire certain assets of Gregory Industries' Inc. and capital
expenditures of $393,000 for equipment to maintain galvanizing facilities.
Capital expenditures of $277,000 for the comparable three-month period of 2004
were for equipment to maintain galvanizing facilities, offset by proceeds of
$92,000 from the sale of investment securities. For the remainder of 2005,
expected capital expenditures of approximately $1,600,000 are budgeted for the
Company's existing galvanizing facilities.

Total debt (current and long-term obligations) increased $3,965,000 to
$19,518,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2005. Financing activities for
this period of 2005 included payments of $168,000 to a bond sinking fund,
proceeds of $8,970,000 from a bank line of credit and term loan, and payments of
$4,837,000 on bank term loans and other obligations.

In February 2005, the Company amended a three-year bank credit agreement that
was scheduled to expire in December 2007 and extended its maturity to February
28, 2008. Subject to borrowing base limitations, the amended agreement provides
(i) an $8,000,000 maximum revolving credit facility for working capital and
general corporate purposes, and (ii) a $5,001,000 term loan.

At March 31, 2005, $12,060,000 was outstanding under the bank credit agreement,
and $400,000 was reserved for outstanding irrevocable letters of credit for
workers' compensation insurance coverage. The Company's commitment to repay the
remaining balance of $6,458,000 of tax-exempt adjustable rate industrial revenue
bonds issued in 2000 is fully secured by an irrevocable letter of credit issued
by Bank One Oklahoma, N.A., in favor of Bank One Trust Company. At March 31,
2005, the Company had $482,000 available borrowing capacity, net of outstanding
letters of credit, under its revolving line of credit based on the borrowing
base calculated under the agreement. During April 2005, the available borrowing
capacity under the revolving line of credit improved to approximately $956,000,
primarily reflecting an improvement in turnover of trade accounts receivable.
The Company believes that its ability to continue to generate cash from
operations and its bank credit facilities will provide adequate capital
resources and liquidity to support operations and capital expenditures plans for
2005.

                                       22
<PAGE>

At March 31, 2005, the Company's Capital Expenditures Ratio of 0.97 was not in
compliance with a 1.0 Ratio covenant under its bank credit agreement, for which
the Company received a waiver from the bank. The Company expects to be in
compliance with the Capital Expenditures Ratio for the remainder of 2005, based
on obtaining from the bank a modification in the method for calculating the
Capital Expenditures Ratio.

The Company has various commitments primarily related to long-term debt,
industrial revenue bonds, operating lease commitments and zinc purchase
commitments. The Company's off-balance sheet contractual obligations at March
31, 2005, consist of $1,867,000 for long-term operating leases for office space,
galvanizing facilities and galvanizing equipment, $642,000 for vehicle and
office equipment operating leases and $3,411,000 for zinc purchase commitments.
The various leases for galvanizing facilities, including option renewals, expire
from 2005 to 2017. A lease for galvanizing equipment expires in 2007. The
vehicle and office equipment leases expire annually on various dates through
2010. NAG periodically enters into fixed price purchase commitments with
domestic and foreign zinc producers to purchase a portion of its requirements
for its hot dip galvanizing operations; commitments for the future delivery of
zinc are typically up to one year.

The Company expects to fund these commitments with cash generated from
operations and continuation of existing bank credit agreements as they mature.
The Company had the following contractual obligations and commercial commitments
as of March 31, 2005 (in thousands):

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The Company's facilities are subject to extensive environmental legislation and
regulations affecting their operations and the discharge of wastes. The cost of
compliance with such regulations in the first quarter of 2005 and 2004 was
approximately $302,000 and $228,000,respectively, for the disposal and recycling
of wastes generated by the galvanizing operations.


NAG was notified in 1997 by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
("IEPA") that it was a potentially responsible party ("PRP") under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information
System ("CERCLIS") in connection with cleanup of an abandoned site formerly
owned by Sandoval Zinc Co. Since then approximately 30 additional PRPs have been
identified by the IEPA. A number of the PRPs (approximately 12 to 15) have
agreed to work together and with IEPA on a voluntary basis. The Company has been
and continues to participate in this volunteer group. The group has retained
consultants and legal representatives familiar with IEPA regulations. This
volunteer group, with its consultants, has cooperated with IEPA in attempting to
better define the environmental issues associated with the Sandoval Zinc site.
To that extent, this voluntary group prepared and submitted to IEPA in August
2000 a work plan. The purpose of this work plan is to attempt to define the
extent of environmental remediation that might be required, assess risks, and
review alternatives to addressing potential remediation. The IEPA has yet to
respond to this proposed work plan or suggest any other course of action, and
there has been no activity in regards to this issue during 2005. Therefore, the
Company has no basis for determining potential exposure and estimated
remediation costs at this time.The Company is committed to complying with all
federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations and using its best
management practices to anticipate and satisfy future requirements. As is
typical in the galvanizing business, the Company will have additional
environmental compliance costs associated with past, present, and future
operations. Management is committed to discovering and eliminating environmental
issues as they arise. Because of the frequent changes in environmental
technology, laws and regulations management cannot reasonably quantify the
Company's potential future costs in this area.


ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company's operations include managing market risks related to changes in
interest rates and zinc commodity prices.

INTEREST RATE RISK. The Company is exposed to financial market risk related to
changes in interest rates. Changing interest rates will affect interest paid on
the Company's variable rate debt. At March 31, 2005, the Company's outstanding
debt of $19,518,000, net of a $19,000 discount, consisted of the following:
Variable rate debt aggregating $12,060,000 under the bank credit agreement, with
an effective rate of 4.2%; $6,458,000 under the industrial revenue bond
agreement, with an effective rate of 3.5%; and, fixed rate debt consisting of
$1,000,000 of 10% subordinated promissory notes and a 9.5% term note of $19,000.
The borrowings under all of the Company's debt obligations at March 31, 2005 are
due as follows: $1,389,000 in 2005; $2,445,000 in 2006; $1,481,000

                                       24
<PAGE>

in 2007 and $14,222,000 in years 2008 through 2013. Each increase of 10 basis
points in the effective interest rate would result in an annual increase in
interest charges on variable rate debt of approximately $18,500 based on March
31, 2005 outstanding borrowings. The actual effect of changes in interest rates
is dependent on actual amounts outstanding under the various loan agreements.
The Company monitors interest rates and has sufficient flexibility to
renegotiate the loan agreement, without penalty, in the event market conditions
and interest rates change.

ZINC PRICE RISK. NAG periodically enters into fixed price purchase commitments
with domestic and foreign zinc producers to purchase a portion of its zinc
requirements for its hot dip galvanizing operations. Commitments for the future
delivery of zinc, typically up to one (1) year, reflect rates quoted on the
London Metals Exchange. At March 31, 2005, the aggregate fixed price commitments
for the procurement of zinc was approximately $3,400,000. With respect to these
zinc fixed price purchase commitments, a hypothetical decrease of 10% in the
market price of zinc from the March 31, 2005 level represented a potential lost
gross margin opportunity of approximately $340,000.

The Company's financial strategy includes evaluating the selective use of
derivative financial instruments to manage zinc and interest costs. As part of
its inventory management strategy, the Company recognizes that hedging
instruments may be effective in minimizing the impact of zinc price
fluctuations. The Company's current zinc forward purchase commitments (Note 6)
are considered derivatives, but the Company has elected to account for these
purchase commitments as normal purchases.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our
chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based
upon, and as of the date of, the evaluation, our chief executive officer and
chief financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures
were effective, in all material respects, to ensure that information required to
be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company purchased the assets of a
galvanizing business located in Canton, Ohio and undertook a review and
evaluation of that operation's internal controls over financial reporting,
including the implementation of a number of controls consistent with its
established galvanizing operations. The Company will continue to integrate this
acquired business into its internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no other significant changes in our internal controls over
financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
controls over financial reporting. There were no significant deficiencies or
material weaknesses identified in the evaluation, and therefore, no corrective
actions were taken.

PART II    OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings.

On August 30, 2004, the Company was informed by counsel for the Metropolitan
Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (the "Water District") that the
Water District had, on August 25, 2004 filed a Second Amended Complaint in the
United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division,
naming North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc. (formerly known as Kinark
Corporation) as an added defendant. Counsel for the Water District also gave the
Company notice of the Water District's intent to file (or amend the Complaint to
include) a Citizens Suit under the Resource Compensation and Recovery Act
("RCRA") against North American Galvanizing & Coatings, Inc., pursuant to
Section 7002 of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. Section 6972. This Second Amended Complaint
seeks enforcement of an August 12, 2004 default judgment in the amount of
$1,810,463 against Lake River Corporation and Lake River Holding Company, Inc.
in connection with the operation of a storage terminal by Lake River Corporation
in violation of environmental laws. Lake River Corporation conducted business as
a subsidiary of the Company until June 30, 2000, at which time Lake River
Corporation was sold to Lake River Holding Company, Inc. and ceased to be a
subsidiary of the Company. The Second Amended Complaint asserts that prior to
the sale of Lake River Corporation, the Company directly operated the Lake River
facility and, accordingly, seeks to have the Court pierce the corporate veil of
Lake River Corporation and enforce the default judgment order of August 12, 2004
against the Company. The Company denies the assertions set forth in the Water
District's Complaint and on November 13, 2004 filed a partial motion for
dismissal of the Second Amended Complaint.

In December 2004, the Water District filed a Third Amended complaint in the
litigation, adding two claims: (1) a common law claim for nuisance; and (2) a
claim under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, in which the
Water District argues that the Company is responsible for conditions on the
plaintiff's property that present an "imminent and substantial endangerment to
human health and the environment." In January 2005 and March 2005, the Company
filed partial motions to dismiss plaintiff's third amended complaint, in the
United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division.
On April 12, 2005, the Court issued an order denying in part and granting in
part the Company's partial motion to dismiss plaintiff's third amended
complaint. The Company is reviewing the Court's order and expects to file an
appeal. The Company has denied any liability with respect to this claim and
intends to vigorously defend this case. At this time, the Company has not
determined the amount of any liability that may result from this matter or
whether such liability, if any, would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

The lease term of a galvanizing facility occupied by Reinforcing Services, Inc.
("RSI"), a subsidiary of North American Galvanizing Company, expired July 31,
2003 and has not been renewed. RSI has exercised an option to purchase the
facility, and the landlord is contesting the Company's right to exercise this
option. RSI has filed a lawsuit against the landlord seeking enforcement of the
right to exercise the option. This litigation is in the discovery stage and
management expects there will be no disruption to its galvanizing business being
conducted at the facility.
