1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month
periods ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in Triumph Group, Inc.'s (the "Company") Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended March 31, 2000.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

The Company's Aviation segment designs, engineers, manufactures or repairs and
overhauls aircraft components for commercial airlines, air cargo carriers, and
original equipment manufacturers on a worldwide basis. The Company's Metals
segment manufactures, machines, processes, and distributes metal products to
customers in the computer, construction, container and office furniture
industries, primarily within North America.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

3.  ACQUISITIONS

Effective April 1, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
ACR Industries, Inc. ("ACR"), Chem-Fab Corporation ("Chem-Fab") and Airborne
Nacelle Services, Inc. ("Airborne Nacelle"). In May 2000, the Company
acquired certain assets from the Anadite California Restoration Trust
("Anadite Assets"). On September 30, 2000, the Company acquired certain
product rights and assets associated with hydraulic systems and auxiliary
power units (APU's), from Honeywell International, Inc., (the "Honeywell
Acquisitions") (collectively the "2001 Acquisitions"). ACR, located in
Macomb, Michigan, is a leading manufacturer of complex geared assemblies
including gas turbine jet engine gear boxes, helicopter transmissions, geared
systems for fixed-winged aircraft and other related components. Chem-Fab and
Airborne Nacelle, both located in Hot-Springs, Arkansas, together process
sheet metal and other structural parts and assemblies for the aerospace
industry. The Anadite Assets, which will be relocated to several of the
Company's existing operating facilities, will provide anodizing, chemical
film coating, phosphate flouride coating, passivation, liquid penetrant
inspection, hardness testing, conductivity testing, thermal optical
properties testing and painting to the aerospace industry. The Honeywell
product rights and assets, which will be relocated from Honeywell
International, Inc.'s Rocky Mount, North Carolina facility ot Triumph's
Frisby Aerospace, Inc. subsidiary, located in Clemmons, North Carolina, are
used in connection with the design, manufacture and overhaul of hydraulic
pumps, motors and power transfer units. The Honeywell product rights and
assets by which Triumph becomes the exclusive designated 700 APU Factory
Service Center and exclusive distributor of new 660 APU products will be
transferred to Triumph's Triumph Air Repair facility located in Phoenix,
Arizona. The combined purchase price for the 2001 Acquisitions was $163,454.
The purchase price includes cash paid at closing, the assumption of debt and
certain liabilities, direct costs of the acquisitions and deferred payments.
Included in accounts payable at September 30, 2000 is $32,000 representing
checks issued at closing which were outstanding at September 30, 2000.

3.  ACQUISITIONS (Continued)

Except for the Honeywell Acquisitions, the combined excess of the purchase
price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired of $54,398 was
recorded as excess of cost over net assets acquired and is being amortized
over thirty years on a straight-line basis. The excess of the purchase price
over the estimated fair value of the tangible assets acquired in the
Honeywell Acquisitions of $50,175 has been recorded as intangibles. The
intangibles related to the hydraulic systems are being amortized over 30
years and the intangibles related to the APU product rights are being
amortized over 10 years.

These acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method and,
accordingly, are included in the consolidated financial statements from their
dates of acquisition. These acquisitions were funded by the Company's long-term
borrowings in place at the date of each respective acquisition.

In fiscal 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Ralee
Engineering Company, Construction Brevitees d'Alfortville, and Lee Aerospace,
Inc. and also acquired substantially all of the assets of KT Aerofab, now
operated by the Company as Triumph Components-San Diego, Inc. (collectively the
"2000 Acqusitions"). For more information about the 2000 Acquisitions, refer to
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000.

The following unaudited pro forma information has been prepared assuming the
2001 Acquisitions and the 2000 Acquisitions had occurred on April 1, 1999.

</TABLE>

The pro forma effects of the acquisitions of the Anadite Assets and the
product rights for the 700 APU from Honeywell International, Inc. are not
included in the above pro forma amounts because the required information is
not available.

The unaudited pro forma information includes adjustments for interest expense
that would have been incurred to finance the purchases, additional depreciation
based on the estimated fair market value of the property and equipment acquired,
and the amortization of the intangible assets and excess of cost over net assets
acquired arising from the transactions. The unaudited pro forma financial
information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they
would have been had the transactions been effected on the assumed dates.

Options to purchase 147,650 shares of common stock, at prices ranging from
$31.38 per share to $44.88 per share, were outstanding during the second quarter
of fiscal 2001. These options were not included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share because the exercise price was greater than the average
market price of the common stock during the three months ended September 30,
2000 and, therefore, the effect would be antidilutive.

SEPTEMBER 30, 1999

AVIATION SEGMENT

     NET SALES. Net sales for the Aviation Segment increased by $23.5 million,
or 25.6%, to $115.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from $91.7
million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000. This increase was due to the
inclusion of an aggregate of $23.8 million and $1.4 million in net sales in the
second quarter of fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively, for Lee Aerospace, Inc.
("Lee"), Triumph Components - San Diego, Inc. ("Triumph Components") and
Construction Brevitees d'Alfortville ("CBA") (collectively the "2000
Acquisitions") and ACR Industries, Inc. ("ACR"), Chem-Fab Corporation
("Chem-Fab") and Airborne Nacelle Services, Inc. ("Airborne Nacelle")
(collectively the "2001 Acquisitions"). Net sales for the other operating
divisions and subsidiaries in the Aviation Segment increased by $1.1 million, or
1.2%, from the prior year period.

     COSTS OF PRODUCTS SOLD. Costs of products sold for the Aviation Segment
increased by $14.5 million, or 23.5%, to $76.3 million for the second quarter of
fiscal 2001 from $61.8 million for the second quarter fiscal 2000. This increase
was due to the inclusion of $15.8 million and $0.9 million in the second quarter
of fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively, of costs of products sold associated with
net sales generated by the 2000 Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions. Costs of

million, or 30.0%, to $38.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from
$30.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000. This increase was due to
the inclusion of $8.0 million and $0.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal
2001, and 2000, respectively, of gross profit on the net sales generated by the
2000 Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions. Gross profit for the other
operating divisions and subsidiaries increased by $1.5 million, or 5.0%, over
the prior year period. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit for the
Aviation Segment was 33.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 and 32.7% for
the second quarter of fiscal 2000.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the Aviation Segment increased by $2.8 million, or
27.2%, to $13.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from $10.3 million
for the second quarter of fiscal 2000, primarily due to the 2000 Acquisitions
and the 2001 Acquisitions.

     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization for the
Aviation Segment increased by $1.4 million, or 31.3%, to $5.9 million for the
second quarter of fiscal 2001 from $4.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal
2000, primarily due to the assets acquired in connection with the 2000
Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions.

     OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the Aviation Segment increased by
$4.8 million, or 31.5%, to $20.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal
2001 from $15.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000. This increase
was primarily due to the addition of net sales and profits generated by the
2000 Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions. The other operating divisions
and subsidiaries in the Aviation Segment as a group experienced a 4.6%
increase in operating income from the prior year. As a percentage of net
sales, operating income for the Aviation Segment was 17.3% for the second
quarter of fiscal 2001 and 16.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 2000.

                                   (continued)
METALS SEGMENT

     NET SALES. Net sales for the Metals Segment decreased by $2.2 million, or
11.9%, to $16.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from $18.5 million
for the second quarter of fiscal 2000. This decrease was mainly due to import
pricing pressures and lower volume at the Company's electro-galvanized steel
operation.

     COSTS OF PRODUCTS SOLD. Costs of products sold for the Metals Segment
decreased by $1.6 million, or 10.9%, to $13.0 million for the second quarter of
fiscal 2001 from $14.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000. This
decrease mainly was due to the decrease in volume at the Company's
electro-galvanized steel operation.

     GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the Metals Segment decreased by $0.6
million, or 15.5%, to $3.3 million for fiscal 2001 from $4.0 million for the
prior year period, due to the reasons discussed above. As a percentage of net
sales, gross profit for the Metals Segment was 20.4% and 21.3% for the second
quarter of fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000, respectively.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the Metals Segment decreased by $0.3 million, or
12.9%, to $2.3 million from $2.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2000.

Segment remained unchanged at $0.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001
from the second quarter of fiscal 2000.

     OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the Metals Segment decreased by $0.3
million, or 26.8%, to $0.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from
$1.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000, due to the reasons discussed
above. As a percentage of net sales, operating income for the Metals Segment was
4.5% and 5.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively.

OVERALL RESULTS

     CORPORATE EXPENSES. Corporate expenses increased by $0.3 million, or 28.8%,
to $1.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from $0.9 million for the
second quarter of fiscal 2000.

million, or 112.3%, to $4.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from
$2.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000. This increase was primarily
due to increased debt levels associated with the 2000 Acquisitions and the 2001
Acquisitions, the cash portions of which were financed by borrowings under the
Company's Credit Facility, as well as a slightly higher rate on the Company's
amended and restated credit facility ("Credit Facility").

     INCOME TAX EXPENSE. The effective tax rate was 37.0% for the second quarter
of fiscal 2001 and 36.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 2000.

     NET INCOME. Net income increased by $1.0 million, or 12.0%, to $9.2 million
for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from $8.2 million for the second quarter
of fiscal 2000. The increase in second quarter 2001 net income was primarily
attributable to the 2000 Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions, partially
offset by the increased interest expense due to the increased debt levels
associated with the 2000 Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions.

$8.2 million, or 27.5%, to $38.1 million for the first six months of fiscal
2001 from $29.9 million for the first six months of fiscal 2000. This

divisions and subsidiaries in the Aviation Segment as a group experienced a
2.6% decline in operating income from the prior year mainly due to higher
depreciation expense. As a percentage of net sales, operating income for the
Aviation Segment was 16.7% for the first six months of fiscal 2001 and 16.8%

to $32.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001 from $37.4 million for

decreased by $4.3 million, or 14.5%, to $25.2 million for the first six months
of fiscal 2001 from $29.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2000. This

electro-galvanized steel operation.

     GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the Metals Segment decreased by $0.6
million, or 7.9%, to $7.3 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001 from

Segment remained unchanged from the prior year period at $0.6 million for the
six months ended September 30, 2000.

     OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the Metals Segment decreased by
$0.3 million, or 14.2%, to $1.7 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001
from $1.9 million for the first six months of fiscal 2000, due to the reasons
discussed above. As a percentage of net sales, operating income for the Metals
Segment was 5.1% and 5.2% for the first six months of fiscal 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

OVERALL RESULTS

     CORPORATE EXPENSES. Corporate expenses increased by $0.6 million, or 32.0%,
to $2.3 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001 from $1.7 million for
the first six months of fiscal 2000.

million, or 134.0%, to $9.8 million for the first six months of fiscal 2001 from
$4.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2000. This increase was
primarily due to increased debt levels associated with the 2000 Acquisitions and
the 2001 Acquisitions, the cash portions of which were financed by borrowings
under the Company's Credit Facility, as well as a slightly higher rate on the
Company's Credit Facility.

     INCOME TAX EXPENSE. The effective tax rate was 37.0% for the first six
months of fiscal 2001 and 36.5% for the first six months of fiscal 2000.

     NET INCOME. Net income increased by $1.0 million, or 6.2%, to $17.4 million
for the first six months of fiscal 2001 from $16.4 million for the first six
months of fiscal 2000. The increase fiscal 2000 net income was primarily
attributable to the 2000 Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions, partially
offset by the reduced earnings of the remaining Aviation Segment operating units
and the increased interest expense due to the increased debt levels associated
with the 2000 Acquisitions and the 2001 Acquisitions.

                                  (continued)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's working capital needs are generally funded through cash flows
from operations and borrowings under its credit arrangements. The Company
generated approximately $6.3 million of cash flows from operating activities for
the six months ended September 30, 2000. The Company used approximately $101.5
million in investing activities and raised $95.3 million in financing activities
for the six months ended September 30, 2000.

     On October 16, 2000, the Company amended its revolving credit facility
("Credit Facility") with its lenders to increase the Credit Facility to
$350.0 million from $250.0 million, and amend certain terms and covenants. As
of September 30, 2000, $44.0 million was available under the Credit Facility.
On September 30, 2000, an aggregate amount of approximately $204.8 million
was outstanding under the Credit Facility, $200.0 million of which was
accruing interest at LIBOR plus applicable basis points totaling 8.12% per
annum, and $4.8 million of which was accruing interest at the prime rate of
9.5% per annum. Amounts repaid under the Credit Facility may be reborrowed.

     Effective April 1, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock
of ACR Industries, Inc., Chem-Fab Corporation and Airborne Nacelle Services,
Inc. In May 2000, the Company acquired certain assets from the Anadite
California Restoration Trust. The combined cash portion of the purchase prices
paid at closing for these acquisitions of approximately $54.2 was funded by
borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility. In connection with these
acquisitions, the Company assumed $32.6 million of seller financing, which
accrued interest at 7%, and $3.6 million of other debt. In July 2000, the
Company retired $30.6 million of the assumed seller financing and approximately
$3.2 million of the assumed other debt. These payments were funded by borrowings
under the Credit Facility.

     Effective September 30, 2000, the Company acquired certain product rights
and assets from Honeywell International, Inc. The Company paid $32.0 million at
closing, which was included in accounts payable at September 30, 2000 and
assumed $27.0 million of seller financing due December 31, 2000.

     Capital expenditures were approximately $10.7 million for the six months
ended September 30, 2000 primarily for manufacturing machinery and equipment for
the Aviation Segment. The Company funded these expenditures through borrowings
under its Credit Facility. The Company expects capital expenditures to be
approximately $20.0 million for its fiscal year ending March 31, 2001. The
expenditures are expected to be used primarily to expand capacity at several
facilities.

     The Company believes that cash generated by operations and borrowings under
the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash requirements for
its current operations. However, the Company has a stated policy to grow through
acquisition and is continuously evaluating various acquisition opportunities. As
a result, the Company currently is pursuing the potential purchase of a number
of candidates. In the event that more than one of these transactions are
successfully consummated, the availability under the Credit Facility might be
fully utilized and additional funding sources may be needed. There can be no
assurance that such funding sources will be available to the Company on terms
favorable to the Company, if at all.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 relating to the Company's
future operations and prospects, including statements that are based on current
projections and expectations about the markets in which the Company operates,
and management's beliefs concerning future performance and capital requirements
