Benefits of The Acquistion


o       Largest buyer of hot rolled steel will provide purchasing opportunities

o       Savings in SG&A provides additional benefits

o       Income tax benefits resulting from:

                Increase in Foreign Source Income allows Maverick to further
                 utilize Foreign Source Income Tax Credit

                Increase in "Off-Shore" income allows Maverick to utilize Extra-
                 Territorial Income Exclusion (ETI)* and decrease our overall
                 effective tax rate

                Proper state tax planning will minimze state effective tax rate
                 for Precision earnings

o       Anticipate 30% improvement in Precision's cash flow with synergies

* ETI is under review by the World Trade Organization (WTO)

                                                                              13

Operational Changes Within Maverick
Result in Increased Potential Profits


o       Maverick realized significant benefits related to steel cost in Canada
         along with SG&A synergies

o       Maverick anticipates increased profitability from the addition of the
         16-inch operation

o       Maverick has discontinued its DOM operations where losses were incurred

o       Maverick will have additional profits related to the relocation of
         equipment from Longview to Arkansas & Calgary

                Realization of savings from the slitter equipment in Calgary

                Elimination of the "West Coast" premium & freight for steel

                Additional volume on the mill relocated to Arkansas

                                                                              26

                            Where is Maverick Going?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Impact of Lower Volume and Pricing


o       Maverick's 2001 current earnings will be in the range of $1.34 per
         share excluding one-time charges

o       A 5% decrease in U.S. Energy volume will reduce earnings by $0.07 per
         share

o       A 5% decline in U.S. Energy pricing can take earnings down by $0.17 per
         share

o       A 5% increase in U.S. steel cost will negatively impact earnings per
         share by $0.06

                                                                              28
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion


o       Demand for OCTG in 2002 is likely to be lower

o       OCTG pricing is trending below average for 2001

o       Steel Cost are a concern due to closures and the 201 case

o       OCTG inventories should be shaved back by summer

o       Anticipate improving market conditions last half of 2002

                                                                              29
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While 2002 is a Down Year...
2003 Could Be Terrific


o       2001 Surplus Gas Production was approximately 5%

o       Fuel switching decreased demand by approximately 5% in 2001

                If gas prices stay at current level; the demand will switch back
                 in 2002

                If gas prices rise to over $3 per mcf; we anticipate fuel
                 switching to gain approximately 2%

o       Gas Production rose 1% in 2001 at 1,157 rigs

                Gas production will fall 5-6% with rig counts in the 850 range

                Gas production will fall 6-7% with rig counts in the 600 range

o       Winter 2001/2002 demand fell off by 11%

o       Normal winter 2002/2003 should show a rebound in demand

                                                                              30

Benefits of The Acquistion

o       Largest buyer of hot rolled steel will provide purchasing opportunities

o       Savings in SG&A provides additional benefits

o       Income tax benefits resulting from:

                Increase in Foreign Source Income allows Maverick to further
                 utilize Foreign Source Income Tax Credit

                Increase in "Off-Shore" income allows Maverick to utilize Extra-
                 Territorial Income Exclusion (ETI)* and decrease our overall
                 effective tax rate

                Proper state tax planning will minimze state effective tax rate
                 for Precision earnings

o       Anticipate 30% improvement in Precision's cash flow with synergies

* ETI is under review by the World Trade Organization (WTO)

Operational Changes Within Maverick
Result in Increased Potential Profits

o       Maverick realized significant benefits related to steel cost in Canada
         along with SG&A synergies

o       Maverick anticipates increased profitability from the addition of the
         16-inch operation

o       Maverick has discontinued its DOM operations where losses were incurred

o       Maverick will have additional profits related to the relocation of
         equipment from Longview to Arkansas & Calgary

                Realization of savings from the slitter equipment in Calgary

                Elimination of the "West Coast" premium & freight for steel

                Additional volume on the mill relocated to Arkansas

                                                                              26

                            Where is Maverick Going?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Impact of Lower Volume and Pricing

o       Maverick's 2001 current earnings will be in the range of $1.34 per
         share excluding one-time charges

o       A 5% decrease in U.S. Energy volume will reduce earnings by $0.07 per
         share

o       A 5% decline in U.S. Energy pricing can take earnings down by $0.17 per
         share

o       A 5% increase in U.S. steel cost will negatively impact earnings per
         share by $0.06

                                                                              28
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion

o       Demand for OCTG in 2002 is likely to be lower

o       OCTG pricing is trending below average for 2001

o       Steel Cost are a concern due to closures and the 201 case

o       OCTG inventories should be shaved back by summer

o       Anticipate improving market conditions last half of 2002

                                                                              29
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While 2002 is a Down Year...
2003 Could Be Terrific

o       2001 Surplus Gas Production was approximately 5%

o       Fuel switching decreased demand by approximately 5% in 2001

                If gas prices stay at current level; the demand will switch back
                 in 2002

                If gas prices rise to over $3 per mcf; we anticipate fuel
                 switching to gain approximately 2%

o       Gas Production rose 1% in 2001 at 1,157 rigs

                Gas production will fall 5-6% with rig counts in the 850 range

                Gas production will fall 6-7% with rig counts in the 600 range

o       Winter 2001/2002 demand fell off by 11%

o       Normal winter 2002/2003 should show a rebound in demand

                                                                              30
