Company or group of companies for which report is filed:  LSB Industries, Inc.
and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of LSB Industries, Inc.
at September 30, 1995, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for
the nine month and three month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 and
the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 1995 and 1994 have been subjected to a review, in accordance
with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants, by Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors, whose report with
respect thereto appears elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  The financial statements
mentioned above are unaudited and reflect all adjustments, consisting
primarily of adjustments of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
periods.  The results of operations for the nine months and three months ended
September 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.  The condensed consolidated balance sheet at
December 31, 1994, was derived from audited financial statements as of that
date.

                           LSB INDUSTRIES, INC
          NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              (Unaudited)
            Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995 and 1994

Note 1:  The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of LSB
Industries, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries.  The Company s
financial services subsidiary, Equity Bank for Savings, F.A. ( Equity Bank )
was sold on May 25, 1994.  The condensed consolidated statement of income for
the nine month  period ended September 30, 1994 presents the operations of
Equity Bank as income from discontinued operations. 

Note 2:  On May 25, 1994, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of
February 9, 1994, (the  Acquisition Agreement ), the Company sold its wholly-
owned subsidiary, Equity Bank, which constituted the Financial Services
Business of the Company, to Fourth Financial Corporation (the  Purchaser ). 
The Purchaser acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of
Equity Bank. 

Under the Acquisition Agreement and using the proceeds from sale of Equity
Bank, the Company acquired from Equity Bank, prior to closing, certain
subsidiaries of Equity Bank ( Retained Corporations ) that own the real and
personal property and other assets contributed by the Company to Equity Bank
at the time of the acquisition of the predecessor of Equity Bank by the
Company for Equity Bank s carrying value of the assets contributed of
approximately $67.4 million, which approximated fair value.  The carrying
value of these assets in the consolidated financial statements of the Company
continues to be historical cost.  At the time of closing of the sale of Equity
Bank, the Company also acquired:  (A) the loan and mortgage on and an option
to purchase Equity Tower located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma ( Equity Tower
Loan ), for an amount equal to Equity Bank s carrying value of approximately
$13.9 million; (B) other real estate owned by Equity Bank that was acquired by
Equity Bank through foreclosure for an amount equal to Equity Bank s carrying
value of approximately $3.6 million (the Equity Tower Loan and other real
estate owned are collectively called the  Retained Assets ); and (C) certain
other loans for $3.1 million previously owned by Equity Bank.  In addition,
the Company acquired the outstanding accounts receivable sold to Equity Bank
by the Company and its subsidiaries under various purchase agreements, dated
March 8, 1988 (the  Receivables ) for $6.9 million, which approximated fair
value.

Note 3:  At September 30, 1995, the Company had net operating loss ( NOL )
carryforwards for tax purposes of approximately $40 million.  Such amounts
expire beginning in 1999.  The Company also has investment tax credit
carryforwards of approximately $630,000, which expire beginning in 1995.

The Company s provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September
30, 1995 of $112,000 is for current state income taxes.

Note 4:  Primary earnings per common share are based upon the weighted average
number of common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding
during each period, after giving appropriate effect to preferred stock
dividends.  

Fully diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of
common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding and the
assumed conversion of dilutive convertible securities outstanding after
appropriate adjustment for interest and related income tax effects on
convertible notes payable.

Net income (loss) applicable to common stock is computed by adjusting net
income by the amount of preferred stock dividends, including undeclared or
unpaid dividends, if cumulative.

Note 5: In 1992, a subsidiary of the Company signed an agreement to supply a
foreign customer with equipment, technology and technical assistance to
manufacture certain types of automotive products.  As of September 30, 1995
$17 million has been billed and collected by the Company under this contract. 
In May 1995, the subsidiary negotiated an amendment to the agreement with the
foreign customer and an agreement with a syndication of foreign lenders
whereby the lenders acquired, without recourse to the Company or such
subsidiary, the unpaid contract amount billable by the Company (present value
of approximately $24 million).  Under the amendment with the foreign customer
and the agreement with the foreign lenders, the Company received approximately
$5 million, net of fees, and a commitment from the foreign customer to provide
approximately $21 million of bearing products.  The Company is to receive such
bearing products, without charge when and if the foreign customer repays its
debt of approximately $31 million which the foreign lenders acquired from the
subsidiary.  In addition, the subsidiary agreed to purchase approximately $6
million of bearing products each year over (5) years beginning,in 1995, at
predetermined prices, not in excess of market prices, subject to the
customer's ability to deliver product, meeting defined quality standards, to
the Company.

(1) Includes 1,821,419 shares of the Company's Common Stock held in treasury. Excluding the 1,821,419 shares held in treasury, the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock at September 30, 1995 were 12,935,117. Note 7: Following is a summary of certain legal actions involving the Company: A. In 1987, the U.S. Government notified one of the Company s subsidiaries, along with numerous other companies, of potential responsibility for clean-up of a waste disposal site in Oklahoma. No legal action has yet been filed. The amount of the Company s cost associated with the clean- up of the site is unknown due to continuing changes in (i) the estimated total cost of clean-up of the site and (ii) the percentage of the total waste which was alleged to have been contributed to the site by the Company, accordingly, no provision for any liability which may result has been made in the accompanying financial statements. The subsidiary s insurance carriers have been notified of this matter; however, the amount of possible coverage, if any, is not yet determinable. B. As a result of a preliminary environmental assessment report prepared by the State of Arkansas, the primary manufacturing facility of the Company s Chemical Business has been placed in the Environmental Protection Agency s ( EPA ) tracking system of sites which are known or suspected to be a site of a release of hazardous waste (the "System"). Inclusion in the system does not represent a determination of liability or a finding that any response action is necessary. As a result of being placed in the System, the State of Arkansas performed a preliminary assessment and advised the Company that the site has had certain releases of contaminants. On July 18, 1994, the Company received a report from the State of Arkansas which contained findings of violations of certain environmental laws and requested the Company to conduct further investigations to better determine the compliance status of the Company and releases of contaminants at the site. On May 2, 1995, the Company signed a Consent Administrative Agreement ( Agreement ) with the State of Arkansas. The Agreement provides for the Company to remediate and close a certain landfill, monitor groundwater for certain contaminants and depending on the results of the monitoring program to submit a remediation plan, upgrade certain equipment to reduce wastewater effluent, and pay a civil penalty of $25,000. The Company has paid the civil money penalty, completed the landfill closure, and begun the ground water monitoring process. While the Company is at this time unable to determine the ultimate cost of compliance with the Agreement, the Company has determined the subsidiary s cost to be at least $450,000; therefore, the Company included a provision for environmental costs of $450,000 in the 1994 results of operations. Based on information presently available, the Company does not believe that compliance with the Agreement, or the facility being placed in the System, should have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Company s financial condition. The Company, including its subsidiaries, is a party to various other claims, legal actions, and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management after consultation with counsel, all claims, legal actions (including those described above) and complaints are adequately covered by insurance, or if not so covered, are without merit or are of such kind, or involve such amounts that unfavorable disposition would not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company. The Company has guaranteed on an unsecured basis approximately $2.5 million of debt from lenders to a start-up aviation company in exchange for a 24% ownership interest in the aviation company, to which no value has been assigned as of September 30, 1995. This debt requires interest only payments until September 1996 at which time the outstanding principal and interest are due in full. As of September 30, 1995, the aviation company was in compliance with the appropriate provisions of its debt agreements with its lenders. Note 8: As previously announced, the Company is going to restructure its business due to unsatisfactory returns on investments in certain business segments. The extent and precise form of the restructuring has not been determined, other than the Company's intent to reduce its investment in the Automotive Products and Industrial Products Businesses, where the return on investment has not been satisfactory, and to concentrate resources in the Chemical and Environmental Control Businesses. Note 9: In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("FAS 121"). FAS 121 establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used for long-lived assets and certain intangibles to be disposed of. This statement requires that such assets be reviewed for impairment, utilizing estimated cash flows resulting from the use of such assets and their eventual disposition, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company has not determined the effect, if any, implementation of FAS 121 will have on the Company's financial statements. This statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The Company anticipates the adoption of FAS 121 and the implementation of its provisions no later than the first quarter of 1996; however, earlier application is permitted. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with a review of the Company's September 30, 1995 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. OVERVIEW The Company is a diversified holding company which is engaged, through its subsidiaries, in the Chemical Business, the Environmental Control Business, the Automotive Products Business and the Industrial Products Business. Information about the Company's continuing operations in different industry segments for the nine months and three months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 is detailed below.

The extent and precise form of the restructuring has not been determined, other than the Company's intent to reduce its investment in the Automotive Products and Industrial Products Businesses, where the return on investment has not been satisfactory, and to concentrate resources in the Chemical and Environmental Control Businesses. As of the date of this report the Company is not aware of the effects that such restructuring will have on the Company's results of operation or liquidity but it is management's opinion that the implementation of such plan should improve liquidity. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Nine months ended September 30, 1995 vs. Nine months ended September 30, 1994. Revenues -------- Total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 were $211.4 million and $194.2 million, respectively (an increase of $17.2 million). Sales increased $17.1 million. Net Sales - --------- Consolidated net sales included in total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were $208.1 million, compared to $191.0 million for the first nine months of 1994, an increase of $17.1 million. This increase in sales resulted principally from: (i) increased sales in the Chemical Business of $2.7 million, primarily due to higher sales prices to partially pass higher ammonia costs through to customers and increased business volume of Total Energy Systems, the Company's subsidiary located in Australia (TES), (ii) increased sales in the Environmental Control Business of $11.7 million primarily due to increased heat pump sales to a customer which is retrofitting certain of the air-conditioning and heating systems on a US military base, and increased fan coil sales resulting from improved market conditions in 1995, and (iii) increased sales in the Industrial Products Business of $2.9 million, primarily due to increased sales to a foreign customer and increases in sales of machine tools. Subsequent to realizing the sales to the customer, the Company purchased a fifty percent (50%) equity interest for $2.8 million in the joint venture which is retrofitting certain air conditioning and heating systems on a U.S. military base as noted above in (ii). See "Potential Business Acquisitions" of this Management's Discussion and Analysis. Gross Profit ------------ Gross profit was 22.1% for the first nine months of 1995, compared to 21.9% for the first nine months of 1994. The improvement in the gross profit percentage was due primarily to higher prices and improved absorption of costs due to increased production volumes in the Environmental Control Business, and higher prices in the Industrial Products Business. Selling, General and Administrative Expense ------------------------------------------- Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses as a percent of net sales were 19.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 18.6% in the first nine months of 1994. This increase in SG&A as a percent of sales was primarily due to: (i) increased expenses to expand the Industrial Products Business with a less than equivalent corresponding increase in sales, (ii) increased expense in the Automotive Products Business, and, (iii) increased insurance costs in 1995 versus 1994. These factors were offset in part by sales increases in the Environmental Control Business with no corresponding increase in SG&A costs. Interest Expense ---------------- Interest expense for the Company was approximately $7.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 compared to approximately $5.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 1994. The increase primarily resulted from higher average balances of borrowed funds. Income Before Taxes ------------------- The Company had income from continuing operations before income taxes of $1.3 million in the first nine months of 1995 compared to $4.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 1994. The decreased profitability of $2.7 million was primarily due to higher SG&A costs of $5.0 million and interest expense of $2.5 million offset by improved gross profit of $4.2 million as previously discussed. Provision For Income Taxes -------------------------- As a result of the Company's net operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes as discussed elsewhere herein and in Note 3 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company's provisions for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and the nine months ended September 30, 1994 are for current state income taxes and federal alternative minimum taxes. Income From Discontinued Operations ----------------------------------- Income from discontinued operations reflects the results of operations of the Financial Services Business sold in May 1994. Income from discontinued operations, net of expenses, was $584,000 in the first nine months of 1994. Three months ended September 30, 1995 vs. Three months ended September 30, - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1994. - ---- Revenues -------- Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 were $65.5 million and $60.1 million, respectively (an increase of $ 5.4 million). Sales increased $ 5.2 million. Net Sales --------- Consolidated net sales included in total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1995 were $63.9 million, compared to $58.7 million for the third quarter of 1994, an increase of $ 5.2 million. This increase in sales resulted principally from: (i) increased sales in the Chemical Business of $1.5 million, primarily due to the higher price of ammonia being partially passed through to customers in the form of price increases and increased business volume of TES, (ii) increased sales in the Environmental Control Business of $1.8 million primarily due to increased fan coil sales resulting from improved market conditions for these products, (iii) increased sales in the Automotive Products Business of $.9 million due to the acquisition of New Alloy Company on June 1, 1995, a manufacturer and distributor of automotive U- joint products, and (iv) increased sales in the Industrial Products Business of $1.0 million, primarily due to increased sales of machine tools. Gross Profit ------------ Gross profit was 20.3% for the three months ended September 30, 1995, compared to 20.8% for the three months ended September 30, 1994. The decline in the gross profit was due primarily to a change in product mix in the Environmental Control Business and customer mix in the Automotive Products Business, offset by sales price increases in 1995 to partially pass on to customers abnormally high ammonia cost increases sustained in late 1993, 1994 and early 1995 and the lowered cost of ammonia incurred in the latter part of 1995 Selling, General and Administrative Expense ------------------------------------------- Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses as a percent of net sales were 21.9% in the three months ended September 30, 1995 and 22.1% in the third quarter of 1994. This decrease in SG&A as a percent of sales was primarily due to increased sales volume in the Environmental Control, Automotive Products, and Industrial Products Businesses with a less than equivalent corresponding increase in SG&A costs, and decreased insurance costs in 1995 versus 1994. Interest Expense ---------------- Interest expense for the Company was approximately $2.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 1995 compared to approximately $1.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 1994. The increase primarily resulted from higher average balances of borrowed funds. Income before Taxes ------------------- The Company had a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $1.9 million in the third quarter of 1995 compared to $1.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 1994. The decreased profitability of $.9 million was primarily due to higher gross profit of $.7 million offset by increases in SG&A of $1.0 million and higher interest expense of $.8 million. Provision For Income Taxes -------------------------- As a result of the Company's net operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes as discussed elsewhere herein and in Note 3 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company's provisions for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and the three months ended September 30, 1994 are for current state income taxes and federal alternative minimum taxes. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- The Company is a diversified holding company and its liquidity is dependent, in large part, on the operations of its subsidiaries and credit agreements with lenders. Sources of Funds - In December 1994, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries finalized a new working capital line of credit. This line of credit consolidated substantially all of the Company's working capital lines of credit into one comprehensive funding source. This working capital line of credit is evidenced by six separate loan agreements ("Agreements") with a lender ("Lender") collateralized by receivables, inventory and proprietary rights of the Company and the subsidiaries that are parties to the Agreements. The agreements provide for revolving credit facilities ("Revolver") for total direct borrowings up to $65 million, including the issuance of letters of credit. The Revolver provides for advances at varying percentages of eligible inventory and trade receivables and bears interest at the Lender's prime lending rate plus one-half percent (.5%) Per discussion below (rate changed to the Lender's prime lending rate plus one percent effective November 16, 1995). The rate in effect at September 30, 1995 was 9.25%. The initial term of the Agreements is through December 31, 1997, and is renewable thereafter for successive thirteen month terms. The Lender or the Company may terminate the Agreements at the end of the initial term or at the end of any renewal term without penalty. At September 30, 1995, the available borrowings, based on eligible collateral, approximated $59.3 million. Borrowings under the Revolver outstanding at September 30, 1995, were $56.9 million. The Agreements require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and contain other financial covenants, including tangible net worth requirements and capital expenditure limitations. Effective August 17, 1995, the Company renegotiated the tangible net worth covenant to reduce the requirement from $90 million to $82 million. Due to lower earnings than anticipated the Company did not meet the original covenant at June 30, 1995 and it was Managements opinion that the Company would not meet the covenant requirements during the next twelve months of the term of the Agreements. Effective November 16, 1995 the Company renegotiated further reductions in the tangible net worth covenants for the period December 31, 1995 through December 31, 1997 and simultaneous therewith agreed to an increase in the interest rate it pays the Lender by one-half percent (.5%). The tangible net worth covenants were reset to $78 million at December 31, 1995 escalating quarterly to $84 million at December 31, 1997. The covenants had previously been $82 million at December 31, 1995 escalating quarterly to $98 million at December 31, 1996 and thereafter. Management expects that the Company will be able to meet the renegotiated covenant requirements at future measurement dates. The annual interest on the outstanding debt under the Revolver at September 30, 1995 at the rate then in effect would be approximately $5.3 million. In addition to the Agreements discussed above, the Company has the following term loans in place: (1) The Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, El Dorado Chemical Company and Slurry Explosive Corporation ("Chemical"), which substantially comprise the Company's Chemical Business, are parties to a loan agreement ("Loan Agreement") with two institutional lenders ("Lenders"). This Loan Agreement, as amended, provides for a seven year term loan of $28.5 million ("Term Loan"). The balance of the Term Loan at September 30, 1995 was $14.4 million. Annual principal payments remaining on the Term Loan are $7.0 million in 1996 and a final payment of $7.4 million on March 31, 1997. Annual interest at the agreed to interest rates, if calculated on the $14.4 million outstanding balance at September 30, 1995 would be approximately $1.7 million. The Term Loan is secured by substantially all of the assets not otherwise pledged under the Revolver previously discussed and capital stock of Chemical. The Loan Agreement requires Chemical to maintain certain financial ratios and contains other financial covenants, including tangible net worth requirements and capital expenditures limitations. As of the date of this report, Chemical is in compliance with all financial covenant requirements. The Company anticipates that chemical will be able to meet covenant requirements at future measurement dates. Under the terms of the current Loan Agreement, Chemical cannot transfer funds to the Company in the form of cash dividends or other advances, except for (i) the amount of taxes that Chemical would be required to pay if it was not consolidated with the Company; and, (ii) an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of Chemical's cumulative adjusted net income as long as Chemical's Total Capitalization Ratio, as defined, is .65:1 or below. (2) The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, DSN Corporation ("DSN") is a party to several loan agreements with a financing company (the "Financing Company") for two (2) projects which DSN will substantially complete during 1995. These loan agreements are for a construction loan (the "Construction Loan") which provides for $16.5 million to be used to construct, equip, reerect, and refurbish a nitric acid plant (the "DSN Plant") being placed into service by the Chemical Business at it's El Dorado, Arkansas facility, a loan for approximately $1.2 million to purchase additional railcars to support the DSN Plant (the Railcar Loan ), and a loan for approximately $1.1 million to finance the construction of a mixed acid plant (the Mixed Acid Plant ) in North Carolina (the "Mixed Acid Loan"). At September 30, 1995, DSN had outstanding borrowings of $14.6 million under the Construction Loan, $.6 million under the Mixed Acid Loan and no outstanding borrowings under the Railcar Loan. The Construction Loan will be repaid upon the completion of construction and acceptance of the DSN Plant as capable of production, with proceeds of a permanent loan ("DSN Permanent Loan"). Completion of construction, funding of the remaining $1.8 million and conversion to the DSN Permanent Loan are expected to occur during 1995. The DSN Permanent Loan will have a repayment schedule of eighty-four (84) equal consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest, payable in arrears. The interest rate per annum will fix for the entire loan term at the rate per annum for a five year United States Treasury Security ("Treasury Rate") as determined at the close of business on the third business day prior to the making of the DSN Permanent Loan plus a specified percentage. As of October 31, 1995, the interest rate would be 8.5%. The Railcar Loan and the Mixed Acid Loan will be repaid under the same terms as the Construction Loan. Upon completion of construction of the Mixed Acid Plant, the Mixed Acid Loan will have a repayment schedule of eighty-four (84) equal consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest, payable in arrears. The rate of interest on the Mixed Acid Loan will be determined in the same manner as the DSN Permanent Loan and the rate at October 31, 1995 would be 8.5%, also. Monthly aggregate principal installments of approximately $204,000 will be required once the above discussed construction loans convert to permanent loans. (3) A subsidiary of the Company ("Borrower") entered into a loan agreement ("Agreement"), effective as of May 4, 1995, with Bank IV Oklahoma, N.A. ("Bank"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Bank loaned $9 million to the Borrower, evidenced by a Promissory Note ("Note"). The Note bears interest per annum at a rate equal to one percent (1%) above the prime rate in effect from day to day as published in the Wall Street Journal. The outstanding principal balance of the Note is payable in sixty (60) monthly payments of principal and interest commencing on May 31, 1995. Payment of the Note is secured by a first and priority lien and security interest in and to the Borrower's right, title, and interest in the loan receivable relating to the real property and office building known as the Bank IV Tower located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (the "Tower"), the Management Agreement relating to the Tower, and the Option to Purchase Agreement covering the real property on which the Tower is located. Foreign Subsidiary Financing - On March 7, 1995 the Company guaranteed a revolving credit working capital facility (the "Facility") between its wholly- owned Australian subsidiary Total Energy Systems, Ltd. ("TES") and Bank of New Zealand. The Facility allows for borrowings up to an aggregate of approximately $3.7 million based on specific percentages of qualified eligible assets ($3.0 million borrowed at September 30, 1995). Such debt is secured by substantially all the assets of TES, plus an unlimited guarantee and indemnity from the Company. The interest rate on this debt is the Bank of New Zealand Corporate Base Lending Rate plus 0.5% (approximately 11% at September 30, 1995). The Facility is subject to renewal at the discretion of Bank of New Zealand based upon annual review. The next annual review is due on March 31, 1996. TES is in technical non-compliance with a certain financial covenant contained in the loan agreement involving the Facility. However, the lender that the lender has not taken any action against TES or the Company as a result of such non-compliance and the lender has continued to allow TES to borrow under the Revolver. The outstanding borrowing under the facility at September 30, 1995 has been classified as due within one year in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Cash Flows - Net cash used by operating activities of continuing operations in the first nine months of 1995, after adjustment for net non-cash expenses of $6.8 million, was $4.6 million. This cash usage included the following changes in assets and liabilities: (i) increases in accounts receivable of $11.1 million, (ii) inventory increases of $3.6 million, (iii) decreases in supplies and prepaid items of $.1 million, and (iv) increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2.1 million. The increase in accounts receivable was due primarily to increased sales of approximately $9.9 million over the fourth quarter of 1994 in all businesses. The increase in inventories was due primarily to higher sales levels in all businesses and increases in the Automotive Products Business due to purchases of new products in excess of the realized sales demand for those products. These increases were offset by inventory reductions in the Environmental Control Business due to reductions of excess inventory and to deliveries under a large contract in 1995 of inventory that was manufactured in 1994. The increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities is due to expansion of the product base and increased business volume and normal fluctuations in the timing of payments. Investing activities during the first nine months of 1995 included (i) capital expenditures of $15.1 million, relating primarily to the construction of a new nitric acid production facility in the Chemical Business, including $.9 million of capitalized interest associated with such construction (ii) principal payments received on certain loans receivable of $1.5 million, (iii) proceeds of $1.0 million from the sale of assets, primarily real estate, and (iv) a net increase in other assets of $.7 million due primarily to a subsidiary's investment of $2.8 million in the joint venture previously discussed offset by sales of other assets primarily real estate held for sale. Cash flows provided by financing activities included net borrowings of $20.7 million, offset by dividends paid of $2.8 million and treasury stock purchases of $1.4 million. In summary, during the nine months ended September 30, 1995, cash requirements for required debt service payments, dividends on Company stocks, and purchases of treasury stock approximated $14.8 million. In addition, the Company spent approximately $14.2 million for capital improvements, of which $8.5 million was in connection with the DSN Plant being constructed by the Chemical Business. The expenditures noted above, plus the cash used by operations of $4.6 million, resulted in a borrowing requirement of approximately $12.9 million against the Company's revolving credit facilities in addition to other borrowings of $18.4 million discussed elsewhere in this report. Future cash requirements include working capital requirements for anticipated sales increases in all businesses, and funding for future capital expenditures, primarily in the Chemical Business. Funding for the higher accounts receivable resulting from anticipated sales increases will be provided by the revolving credit facilities previously discussed. Inventory requirements for the higher anticipated sales activity should be met by scheduled reductions in the inventories of the Automotive Products Business, which has increased its inventories beyond required levels. In the first nine months of 1995, the Chemical Business has incurred additional cost of $8.5 million to continue installation of the DSN Plant. The Company anticipates incurring $1.9 million to complete this project, which was producing at 80% of design capacity on October 31, 1995. As previously noted, the Company expects the final funding of$3.1 million related to the DSN Plant and related railcars to occur during the fourth quarter 1995. During the first nine months of 1995, the Chemical Business spent $1.6 million in connection with the Mixed Acid Plant. An additional $.1 million is expected to be incurred on the Mixed Acid Plant in 1995. Management believes that cash flows from operations, the Company's revolving credit facilities, and other sources will be adequate to meet its presently anticipated capital expenditure, working capital, debt service, and dividend requirements. The Company currently has no material commitment for capital expenditures, other than those related to the Chemical Business' completion of an additional concentrated nitric acid plant, a mixed acid plant and the purchase of additional railcars as discussed above. During the first nine months of 1995, the Company paid the following aggregate dividends: (1) $12.00 per share on each of the outstanding shares of its Series B 12% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, which is the annual dividend on this series of preferred stock for 1995; (2) $2.44 per share on each outstanding share of its $3.25 Convertible Exchangeable Class C Preferred Stock, Series 2; (3) $10.00 per share on each outstanding share of its Convertible Noncumulative Preferred Stock, which is the annual dividend on this series of preferred stock for 1995; and (4) $.06 per share on its outstanding shares of Common Stock, $.03 of which was declared in December 1994 but paid in January 1995. The Company expects to continue the payment of annual cash dividends on its common stock equal to $.06 per share in the future in accordance with the policy adopted by the Board of Directors and the cash dividends on the Company's outstanding series of preferred stock pursuant to the terms of such preferred stocks. Foreign Sales Contract - In connection with an agreement to supply a foreign customer with equipment, technology and technical assistance ("Agreement") and a contract with a group of foreign lenders in connection with the Agreement, a subsidiary of the Company committed to purchase approximately $6 million of bearing products from the foreign customer each year for five years starting in 1995, at predetermined prices, not in excess of market prices, subject to the customer's ability to deliver product to the Company's subsidiary meeting defined quality standards. The Company intends to finance the purchase of these bearing products from the foreign customer through working capital and by reducing its purchase of bearing products from other sources from whom the Company is presently purchasing such products. During the first nine months of 1995 the Company purchased $2.1 million of bearing products from the foreign customer. See Note 5 to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Potential Business Acquisitions - During 1994 the Company, through a subsidiary, loaned $2.1 million to a French manufacturer of HVAC equipment whose product line is compatible with that of the Company's Environmental Control Business in the U.S.A. Under the loan agreement, the Company has the option to exchange its rights under the loan for 80% of the borrower's outstanding common stock. The Company obtained a security interest in the stock of the French manufacturer to secure its $2.1 million loan. At this time the decision has not been made to exercise such option and the $2.1 million loan net of a $650,000 impairment reserve is carried on the books as a note receivable in other assets. During the second quarter of 1995, the Company executed a stock option agreement to acquire eighty percent (80%) of the stock of a specialty sales organization to enhance the marketing of the Company's air conditioning products. The stock option has a four (4) year term, and a total option granting price of $1.0 million payable in installments including an option fee of $500,000 paid upon signing of the option and annual $100,000 payments for yearly extensions of the stock option thereafter for up to three (3) years. Upon exercise of the stock option by the Company, or upon the occurrence of certain performance criteria which would give the grantors of the stock option the right to accelerate the date on which the Company must elect whether to exercise, the Company shall pay certain cash and issue promissory notes for the balance of the exercise price of the subject shares. The total exercise price of the subject shares is $4.0 million, less the amounts paid for the granting and any extensions of the stock option. The Company expects that it will eventually exercise the stock option, however, there are no assurances that such stock option will ultimately be exercised. The Company believes it will be able to finance the cash requirements associated with the stock option agreement from existing cash reserves and cash flow from Company operations in the event the Company elects to exercise its option under the stock option agreement. A subsidiary of the Company invested approximately $2.8 million to purchase a fifty percent (50%) equity interest in an energy conservation joint venture (the "Project"). The Project has been awarded a contract to retrofit residential housing units at a US Army base. The contract calls for installation of energy-efficient equipment (including air conditioning and heating equipment), which will reduce utility consumption. For the installation and management, the Project will receive an average of seventy- seven percent (77%) of all energy and maintenance savings during the twenty (20) year contract term. The Project estimates that the cost to retrofit the residential housing units at the US Army base will be approximately $18.8 million. The Project has received a loan from a lender to finance up to approximately $14 million of the cost of the Project. The Company is not guaranteeing any of the lending obligations of the Project. The Company has guaranteed the bonding company's exposure under the payment and performance bonds on the Project, which is approximately $17.9 million. Availability of Company's Loss Carryovers - The Company anticipates that its cash flow in future years will benefit to some extent from its ability to use net operating loss ("NOL") carryovers from prior periods to reduce the federal income tax payments which it would otherwise be required to make with respect to income generated in such future years. As of September 30, 1995, the Company had available NOL carryovers of approximately $40 million, based on its federal income tax returns as filed with the Internal Revenue Service for taxable years through 1994. These NOL carryovers will expire beginning in the year 1999. The amount of these NOL carryovers has not been audited or approved by the Internal Revenue Service and, accordingly, no assurance can be given that such NOL carryovers will not be reduced as a result of audits in the future. In addition, the ability of the Company to utilize these NOL carryovers in the future will be subject to a variety of limitations applicable to corporate taxpayers generally under both the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations. These include, in particular, limitations imposed by Code Section 382 and the consolidated return regulations. Contingencies - As discussed in Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has several contingencies that could impact its liquidity in the event that the Company is unsuccessful in defending against the claimants. Although management does not anticipate that these claims will result in substantial adverse impacts on its liquidity, it is not possible to determine the outcome.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of LSB Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1995, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine-month and three- month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flow for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will be performed for the full year with the objective of expressing 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 the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of LSB Industries, Inc. as of December 31, 1994, and the related consolidated statements of operations, non- redeemable preferred stock, common stock and other stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 21, 1995, 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, 1994, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
