RIVIERA TOOL COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2005

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements (the "Financial
Statements") of Riviera Tool Company (the "Company") have been prepared by the
Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Accordingly, the Financial Statements do not include all the
information and footnotes normally included in the annual financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America.

In the opinion of management, the Financial Statements reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly
such information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These Financial Statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year
ended August 31, 2004.

The Company's financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in
the normal course of business. During fiscal 2004, the Company sustained both a
significant loss from operations as well as a net loss. This loss resulted in an
accumulated deficit. Further, the Company was not in compliance with the
covenants of its long-term loan agreement causing the Company's debt to be
classified as current in the financial statements. The Company currently entered
into a forebearance agreement that expires April 29, 2005. These factors, among
other things, raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or
the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company believes that the revolving line of credit (under the existing
forebearance agreement and future extensions of renegotiated facilities or new
facilities) and the funds generated from operations should be sufficient to
cover anticipated cash needs through fiscal 2005. However, depending on the
Company's primary lender's willingness to extend the due date of the facility as
well as the level of future sales, terms of such sales, financial performance
and cash flow of existing contracts, such financing may not be sufficient to
support operations. Therefore, the Company may be required to seek additional
sources of funding.

The results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended February 28,
2005 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment if changes in circumstances
or the occurrence of events suggest the remaining value may not be recoverable.
An asset is deemed impaired and written down to its fair value if estimated
related total future undiscounted cash flows are less than its book (carrying)
value. The Company, in performing its evaluation of long-lived assets for
impairment, utilized financial projections for five future years including total
undiscounted cash flow. In developing the projections, the Company estimated
revenues for each year and estimated resulting margins based upon various
assumptions including future market pricing trends and historical financial
costs. The analysis concluded that the estimated total undiscounted future cash
flows were in excess of the carrying value of long-lived assets. Had the
analysis concluded that the total undiscounted future cash flows were below the
carrying value, an impairment charge of the difference between the carrying
value and the lower of the total discounted cash flows or fair value would have
been recorded.

required to seek additional sources of funding.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended February 28,
2005 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment if changes in
circumstances or the occurrence of events suggest the remaining value may not be
recoverable. An asset is deemed impaired and written down to its fair value if
estimated related total future undiscounted cash flows are less than its book
(carrying) value. The Company, in performing its evaluation of long-lived assets
for impairment, utilized financial projections for five future years including
total undiscounted cash flow. In developing the projections, the Company
estimated revenues for each year and estimated resulting margins based upon
various assumptions including future market pricing trends and historical
financial costs. The analysis concluded that the estimated total undiscounted
future cash flows were in excess of the carrying value of long-lived assets. Had
the analysis concluded that the total undiscounted future cash flows were below
the carrying value, an impairment charge of the difference between the carrying
value and the lower of the total discounted cash flows or fair value would have
been recorded.


COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2005 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
FEBRUARY 29, 2004.

REVENUES - Revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2005 totaled $5.0
million as compared to $8.3 million for the three months ended February 28,
2004, a decrease of $3.3 million or 40%. This was a result of the Company
beginning the second quarter of 2005 with a contract backlog of $4.6 million as
compared to a $22.1 million contract backlog in 2004, a decrease of 79%. This
lower backlog resulted in the Company incurring a 24% decrease in direct labor
hours during the second quarter of 2005 when compared to 2004 and bringing about
the decrease in second quarter revenues.

The Company's backlog of awarded contracts, which are all believed to be firm,
was approximately $10.1 million and $16.6 million as of February 28, 2005 and
February 29, 2004 respectively. The Company expects all backlog contracts will
be reflected in sales during fiscal years ending August 31, 2005 and 2006.


COST OF SALES - Cost of goods sold decreased from $7.5 million for the second
quarter of fiscal 2004 to $4.2 million for 2005 and, as a percent of sales,
decreased from 89.9% for 2004 to 83.4% for 2005. Direct costs (materials and
labor) decreased by $3.0 million, from $5.0 million for 2004 to $2.0 million for
2005. Engineering expense decreased by $180,000 from $695,000 for 2004 to
$515,000 for 2005. Lastly, of the cost of goods sold, manufacturing overhead
decreased by $90,000 from $1.77 million for 2004 to $1.68 million for 2005.
Additional details of these changes in cost of sales for the second quarter of
fiscal 2004 and 2005 are as follows:



10


o Direct materials expense decreased from $1.6 million for 2004 to $0.5
million for 2005 and decreased as a percent of sales from 19.5% to 9.2%.
This decrease was largely due to lower contract volume requirements and
backlog mix during 2005 as compared to 2004. Outside services expense
decreased from $1.7 million for 2004 to $181,000 for 2005 and as a percent
of sales from 20.2% to 3.6%. This decrease was largely due to the Company
incurring expense related to its outsourced revenue during the second
quarter of 2004. The balance of the outside services expense decrease was
due to lower sales volumes and corresponding decreases in outsourcing
certain machining, die patterns, laser cutting, heat treat and outside
design services.

o Direct labor expense decreased from $1.7 million for 2004 to $1.3 million
for 2005. However, as a percent of sales, direct labor increased from 20.4%
to 26.0%. This change was a result of the Company incurring a 24% decrease
in direct labor hours, from 85,000 hours in 2004 to 65,000 in 2005. Of the
total direct labor expense, regular or straight time decreased by $224,000
however as a percent of sales, increased from 12.7% for 2004 to 16.6% for
2005 due to decreased sales volume. Overtime expense decreased from
$639,000 for 2004 to $485,000 for 2005, however as a percent of sales,
increased from 7.7% for 2004 to 9.7% for 2005.

o Engineering expense decreased from $695,000, 8.4% of sales, for 2004 to
$515,000, 10.3% of sales, for 2005. This decrease was due to the Company's
decrease in awarded contracts and the resulting decrease in the number of
engineering personnel necessary to fulfill the design and project
management portions of the Company's current contract backlog.

o Manufacturing overhead was $1.68 million or 33.8% of sales for 2005 as
compared to $1.77 million or 21.3% of sales for 2004. During 2005,
decreases in manufacturing overhead were largely due to a $54,000 decrease
in manufacturing supplies expense, a $31,000 decrease in machinery repair
and maintenance expense, a $28,000 decrease in medical insurance premiums
and a $18,000 decrease in payroll tax expense. These decreases were offset
by an increase of $37,000 in utilities expense, an increase of $20,000 in
indirect labor expense and an increase of $11,000 in workers compensation
insurance expense. The increase of approximately 12.5% of manufacturing
overhead, as a percent of sales, was largely due to the decrease in sales
volumes.

SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE. Selling and administrative expense increased
from $506,000 for the second quarter of 2004 to $867,000 for 2005. As a percent
of sales, selling and administrative expense increased from 6.1% for 2004 to
17.4% for 2005 due to the lower sales volume and increase in certain
professional advisory fees. The largest selling and administrative expense
increases included $409,000 in legal and professional expenses, $19,000 in sales
salaries and wages, $9,000 in travel expenses and $7,000 in insurance expense.
These increases were offset by decreases including $27,000 in administrative
wages and salaries, $24,000 in public company expense and $19,000 in the State
of Michigan Single Business tax.

The increase in professional and legal expenses related to the Company's primary
lender requiring the Company to retain the services of a consulting company and
the lender's legal counsel at the Company's expense. During the second quarter
of 2005, such expenses totaled approximately $303,000.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased from $123,000 for 2004 to $389,000
for 2005. This increase was largely due to the Company's increased debt levels
during the second quarter of 2005 as compared to 2004. These increases include
$3.0 million of subordinated debt issued in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004.
In addition, the interest rates on the revolver and certain term debt during the
second quarter of 2005 were higher than during the second quarter of fiscal
2004.

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2005 TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
FEBRUARY 29, 2004.

REVENUES - Revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2005 totaled $9.5
million as compared to $16.6 million for the six months ended February 29, 2004,
a decrease of 43%. This was a result of the Company beginning the fiscal 2005
with a contract backlog of $2.4 million as compared to $26.6 million contract
backlog in 2004, a






11



decrease of 91%. This lower backlog resulted in the Company incurring
approximately 126,000 shop floor hours as compared to 161,000 during the same
period of 2004, a decrease of 35,000 hours or 22%.

COST OF SALES - Cost of goods sold decreased from $14.9 million for the six
months ended February 29, 2004 to $8.2 million for the six months ended February
28, 2005, however as a percent of sales, cost of goods sold decreased slightly
from 89.8% for 2004 to 85.9% for 2005. Direct costs (materials and labor)
decreased by $6.2 million, from $10.1 million for 2004 to $3.9 million for 2005.
Engineering expense decreased by $385,000 from $1.4 million for 2004 to $0.97
million for 2005. Lastly, of the cost of goods sold, manufacturing overhead
decreased by $141,000 from $3.5 million for 2004 to $3.3 million for 2005.
Additional details of these changes in cost of sales for the six months ended
February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2005 are as follows:

o Direct materials expense decreased from $2.7 million to $0.85 million for
the first two quarters of 2004 and 2005, respectively. Outside services
expense decreased from $4.1 million for 2004 to $0.4 million for 2005 and
as a percent of sales decreased from 24.6% to 4.2%. This decrease was
largely due to the Company outsourcing certain manufacturing processes in
an attempt to meet customer delivery dates while incorporating a high
number of customer engineering changes to the tooling during the first six
months of 2004. These services largely consist of machining and laser
cutting services.

o Direct labor expense decreased from $3.3 million for 2004 to $2.6 million
for 2005 however, as a percent of sales, direct labor expense increased
from 19.6% to 27.0%. This change was a result of the Company incurring a
22% decrease in direct labor hours, from 161,000 hours in 2004 to 126,000
in 2005. Of the total direct labor expense, regular or straight time
decreased by $487,000 however, as a percent of sales, it increased from
12.7% for 2004 to 17.0% for 2005. Overtime expense decreased from
$1,154,000 for 2004 to $953,000 for 2005, as a percent of sales, increasing
from 6.9% for 2004 to 10.0% for 2005

o Engineering expense decreased from $1.4 million, 8.2% of sales, for 2004
to $0.97 million, 10.2% of sales, for 2005. This decrease was due to the
Company lowering the level of engineering personnel staffing required to
fulfill the design and project management portions of contracts.

o Manufacturing overhead was $3.5 million or 21.0% of sales for 2004 as
compared to $3.3 million or 35.1% of sales for 2005. During 2005, decreases
in manufacturing overhead were largely due to a $84,000 decrease in
manufacturing supplies expense, a $56,000 decrease in medical insurance
premiums, a $35,000 decrease in indirect labor expense and a $35,000
decrease in payroll tax expense. These decreases were offset by a $50,000
increase in utilities expense, a $14,000 increase in supervision salaries
and a $15,000 increase in workers compensation insurance expense.


SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE - Selling and administrative expense
increased from $909,000 for the first two quarters of 2004 to $1,447,000 for
2005. As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expense increased from
5.5% for 2004 to 15.2% for 2005. During 2005, increases in selling and
administrative expense were largely due to a $458,000 increase in legal and
professional expense, a $68,000 increase in travel expenses and a $24,000
increase in sales salaries. These increases were offset by a $19,000 decrease in
State of Michigan Single Business Tax expense.

The increase in professional and legal expenses related to the Company's primary
lender requiring the Company to retain the services of a consulting company and
the lender's legal counsel at the Company's expense. During the first two
quarters of 2005, such expenses totaled approximately $353,000.

INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense increased from $331,000 for 2004 to $789,000
for 2005. This increase was largely due to the Company's increased debt levels
during the first half of 2005 as compared to 2004. These increases include $3.0
million of subordinated debt issued in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004. In
addition, the interest rates on the revolver and certain term debt during 2005
were higher than during 2004. During 2005, the Company incurred $40,000 in bank
forebearance fees to its primary lender.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - For the six months ended February 28, 2005, the Company
recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $303,000 to reduce its deferred
tax assets resulting from income tax benefit. For the three months ended
February 28,




12


2005, the Company recorded an increase in the deferred tax asset valuation
allowance of approximately $145,000 to offset the income tax benefit.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - During the six months ended February 28, 2005,
the Company's cash provided by operating activities was $7.8 million. This
largely resulted from a decrease of $10.1 million in account receivables, a $1.9
million increase in contracts in process and a $423,000 decrease in accounts
payable. From investing activities, the Company incurred a decrease in other
assets of $79,000 and $247,000 in additions to property, plant and equipment.
The Company used $7.3 million to reduce the revolving line of credit and
$291,000 to reduce other debt.

The Company's total bank debt as of February 28, 2005, is $8.2 million, all of
which is classified as short-term debt. As of February 28, 2005, the Company was
in default of its loan covenants with its lenders. As a result the Company has
negotiated a $3.75 million Revolving Line of Credit until April 29, 2005. The
Revolving Line of Credit has a balance outstanding of approximately $3.7
million, as of April 8, 2005. The Company also has term notes with an aggregate
outstanding balance of $1,589,777, expiring April 29, 2005. The Revolving Line
of Credit bears interest at the bank's prime rate plus 4.0 percent (an effective
rate of 9.5% at February 29, 2005) and the term notes bears interest at bank's
prime rate plus 4.25 percent (an effective rate of 9.75% at February 28, 2005).
The Company also has two subordinated debt notes payable totaling $4,008,124
which includes $1,008,124 bearing interest at 11% and $3,000,000 bearing
interest at 14% plus deferred interest of 6%.

The Company believes that the revolving line of credit (under the existing
forebearance agreement and future extensions of renegotiated facilities or new
facilities) and the funds generated from operations, will be sufficient to cover
anticipated cash needs through fiscal 2005. However, depending on the Company's
primary lenders willingness to extend the due date of the facility as well as
the level of future sales, terms of such sales, financial performance and cash
flow of existing contracts, such financing may not be sufficient to support
operations. Therefore, the Company may be required to seek additional sources of
funding.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Gestamp Alabama, et al v Riviera, et al
On February 14, 2005, Gestamp Alabama ("Gestamp"), the alleged successor to
Oxford Automotive, Inc. ("Oxford") brought a civil action against Riviera in the
Circuit Court for the County of Kent, State of Michigan, Case No. 05-01520-CK,
seeking a right to immediate possession of certain tooling for use on
Mercedes-Benz automobiles ( "the Tooling"), as well as unspecified damages. On
February 25, 2005, Mercedes-Benz U.S. International, Inc. ("MBUSI") intervened
in and was added to the litigation aligned as a Plaintiff, and sought virtually
identical relief as that sought by Gestamp. On February 25, 2005, a hearing was
scheduled on Gestamp's motion for immediate possession ("the Motion"). Shortly
before the hearing on the Motion, the parties reached an agreement that the
Motion would be resolved on the following terms: (1) MBUSI would pay Riviera by
wire transfer the sum of $3,375,000.00 without prejudice to the rights of any of
the parties with respect to any claims asserted in the litigation; (2) Riviera
would permit MBUSI to take possession of the Tooling that was the subject of the
Motion; (3) Riviera would execute a bill of sale for the Tooling; (4) MBUSI and
Gestamp would earmark up to $500,000.00, over which they would retain complete
control, to pay the legitimate claims asserted by Riveria's sub-contractors or
trade creditors incurred in connection with work performed by Riviera on Oxford,
Gestamp or MBUSI's work, without prejudice to the rights of the parties to
assert any of the claims in the litigation; and (5) upon reasonable notice to
Riviera, MBUSI would be entitled to immediate possession and use of other tools,
dies, component parts and related accessories that Riviera has used to make
MBUSI parts.

The obligations set forth above have been fulfilled, and certain creditors have
been paid portions of the $500,000.00 earmarked by MBUSI and Gestamp.

Riviera has denied any further entitlement to relief by Gestamp and MBUSI in its
responsive pleadings, and has asserted a counter-claim for damages for work that
Riviera has done for MBUSI or Oxford for which payment has not been received.
The damages sought by Riviera include recovery of additional sums that are due
and owing to Riviera's sub-contractors or trade creditors in connection with
this work, which amounts to approximately $3 million.

One of Riviera's sub-contractors, Eclipse Tool and Die, Inc. ("Eclipse"), was
also named as a defendant in this action. Eclipse has filed a crossclaim against
Riviera and counterclaims against Gestamp and Mercedes seeking recovery of
approximately $900,000.00 for work that it performed for Riviera, Oxford and
MBUSI. Eclipse is also seeking to exercise lien rights, but that will have no
effect on Riviera.

Another of Riviera's sub-contractor's, Ronart Tool Company was also a named
defendant in this action. Ronart's claim has been fully satisfied by MBUSI and
it is expected that Ronart will be dismissed from the litigation. The case is in
the early stages, and the parties have not yet conducted any discovery.
True Industrial v. Riviera

Within the last few days, Riviera received notice of an action brought in the
Circuit Court for the County of Macomb, State of Michigan, Case No. 2005-1356-CK
by True Industrial Corporation d/b/a True Industries, Inc. ("True") seeking
damages in the amount of approximately $409,000.00 for work performed by True in
connection with the MBUSI/Gestamp work described above. Due to the fact that the
Complaint was just received by Riviera's outside counsel, no analysis of the
litigation has been performed.
