1.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 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 adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.  Operating results for the three-month and nine-month
periods ended April 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the full fiscal year. The balance sheet at July 31, 1999 has
been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto for the year ended July 31, 1999 in Form 10-K.

3. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The Company's other comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains and losses
on the translation of the assets and liabilities of its foreign operations.
Comprehensive income was $5,302 and $8,760 for the three- month periods ending
April 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and $20,878 and $19,906 for the nine-
month periods ending April 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The unrealized
other comprehensive net loss of $4,202 in the first three quarters of fiscal
2000 primarily reflects the weakening of the Irish Punt, Hungarian Forint and
Belgian Franc against the U.S. Dollar, partially offset by the strengthening of
the South Korean Won against the U.S. Dollar between July 31, 1999 and April 30,
2000.

4. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding
during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net
income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common
stock shares outstanding during the period plus potential dilutive instruments,
including stock options, warrants and the stock purchase plan.

The following table sets forth the numerator and denominator for the computation
of basic and diluted earnings per share:

5. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

In May 1998, the Company offered an incentive separation payment to DRA hourly
employees through a voluntary employee termination program (VTEP).  By the
program's completion date on July 10, 1998, 337 employees had accepted the
Company's offer.  A charge of $26,515 was recorded for these separation costs,
$9,975 of which were paid in fiscal year 1998, $11,565 of which were paid in
fiscal year 1999 and $1,109 of which were paid in the first three quarters of
fiscal year 2000.  Approximately $2,541 are to be paid in the fourth quarter of
fiscal year 2000 and $1,325 are to be paid in fiscal year 2001.

6.  ACQUISITIONS

On March 10, 2000, Reman Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, purchased 100% of the capital shares of M&M Knopf Auto Parts, Inc.
("Knopf") from certain shareholders.  The purchase price of approximately
$61,000, net of cash acquired and including the payoff of certain debt of Knopf,
was funded through proceeds from the Company's Senior Credit Facility and is
subject to certain adjustments.  The acquisition will be accounted for under the
purchase method.  Accordingly, the assets and liabilities were recorded based
upon their fair values at the date of acquisition and resulting goodwill of
approximately $34,000 will be amortized over 30 years.  The purchase price is
subject to an additional contingent payment of cash and/or common stock of the
Company in fiscal year 2005, subject to the achievement by Knopf of certain
earnings goals.  The amount of this payment can not currently be determined.
This additional contingent purchase price, if any, will increase the goodwill
recorded for the acquisition and will be amortized over its remaining useful
life.  Results of operations for Knopf are included in the Company's financial
statements effective March 1, 2000.  Knopf is engaged in automotive component
recovery and exchange.

In April 2000, the Company acquired Elmot-DR, Sp.z.o.o., a Polish manufacturer
of starters and alternators for the OEM and aftermarket in Europe, for
approximately $675.  In August 1999, the Company acquired Engine Master, a
remanufacturer of engines located in Dallas, Texas, for approximately $5,700.

7. FINANCIAL INFORMATION FOR SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS AND NON-GUARANTOR
SUBSIDIARIES

The Company conducts a significant portion of its business through subsidiaries.
The Senior Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and unconditionally
guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain direct and indirect subsidiaries
(the Subsidiary Guarantors). Certain of the Company's subsidiaries do not
guarantee the Senior Notes or the Senior Subordinated Notes (the Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries). The claims of creditors of Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have
priority over the rights of the Company to receive dividends or distributions
from such subsidiaries.

Presented below is condensed consolidating financial information for the
Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries at April
30, 2000 and July 31, 1999 and for the three month and nine month periods ended
April 30, 2000 and 1999.

The equity method has been used by the Company with respect to investments in
subsidiaries. The equity method has been used by Subsidiary Guarantors with
respect to investments in Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Separate financial
statements for Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented based on management's
determination that they do not provide additional information that is material
to investors.

</TABLE>

THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 1999

Net Sales  Net sales of $274.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2000
increased $26.0 million, or 10.5%, from the third quarter of fiscal year 1999.
This improvement was due to sales generated by businesses acquired in fiscal
2000 (Knopf and Engine Master) and the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 (the
additional 31% interest in Remy Korea) and higher demand from automotive and
heavy duty OEM customers and for powertrain/drive train products in the
aftermarket. These increases were partially offset by lower shipments of
electrical products in the aftermarket.

Gross Profit  Gross profit of $64.5 million increased $12.0 million, or 22.9%,
and as a percentage of sales improved from 21.1% in the third quarter of 1999 to
23.5% in the third quarter of 2000.  The growth in gross profit dollars reflects
the sales growth discussed above.  The improvement in margins was due to the
benefits of lean manufacturing initiatives, realization of cost efficiencies
generated by the OEM restructuring, leveraging of fixed manufacturing costs and
growth in the higher margin aftermarket.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses  Selling, general and
administrative (SG&A) expenses increased $3.9 million, or 14.5%, and as a
percentage of sales increased from 10.9% to 11.3% due to the effect of
acquisitions, aftermarket marketing initiatives and enterprise-wide system
implementations.

Operating Income  Operating income of $31.8 million increased $7.5 million, or
30.7%, and as a percentage of sales improved from 9.8% in the third quarter of
fiscal year 1999 to 11.6% in fiscal year 2000.  This

                                       19
<PAGE>

improvement reflects the sales and gross margin issues discussed above,
partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.

Interest Expense and Other Non-operating Expenses  Interest expense of $12.2
million compares with $12.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999.  The
average debt balance was up year over year due to acquisitions and higher
capital spending, partially offset by improved cash flow from operating
activities. Recent interest rate increases by the Fed will not begin to effect
the Company's overall cost of funds until the fourth quarter due to LIBOR locks
currently in place.

Income Taxes  Income tax expense in the third quarter of fiscal year 2000 was
$7.2 million compared to $4.6 million in the comparable period last year.  The
Company's consolidated effective income tax rate of 38.0% was down from 39.0%
due to the implementation of various tax planning initiatives and the effect of
the acquisition of certain foreign subsidiaries.

Minority Interest in Income of Subsidiaries and Income (Loss) From
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures  The year over year change in these items
primarily reflects the Company's acquisition of a majority ownership of Remy
Korea in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999.  This subsidiary was accounted for
under the equity method prior to that.


NINE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 2000 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 1999

Net Sales  Net sales of $812.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal year
2000 increased $108.2 million, or 15.4%, from the comparable period of fiscal
year 1999.  This increase was due to the effect of the acquisitions discussed
above, the acquisition of Williams in the second quarter of fiscal 1999 and
higher demand across all major product lines and markets.

Gross Profit  Gross profit of $182.7 million increased $41.7 million, or 29.6%,
and as a percentage of sales improved from 20.0% to 22.5%.  The growth in gross
profit dollars reflects the sales growth discussed above.  The improvement in
margins was due to the benefits of lean manufacturing initiatives, realization
of cost efficiencies generated by the OEM restructuring, leveraging of fixed
manufacturing costs and growth in the higher margin aftermarket.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses  SG&A expenses increased $18.9
million, or 25.6%, and as a percentage of sales increased from 10.5% to 11.4%
due to the effect of acquisitions, aftermarket marketing initiatives and
enterprise-wide system implementations.

Operating Income  Operating income of $85.4 million increased $21.6 million, or
33.9%, and as a percentage of sales improved from 9.1% in the first three
quarters of fiscal year 1999 to 10.5% in fiscal year 2000.  This improvement
reflects the sales and gross margin issues discussed above, partially offset by
higher SG&A expenses.

Interest Expense and Other Non-operating Expenses  Interest expense of $35.8
million compares with $34.4 million in the first three quarters of fiscal 1999.
The average debt balance was up year over year due to acquisitions and higher
capital spending, partially offset by improved cash flow from operating
activities.

Recent rate increases by the Fed will not begin to effect the Company's overall
cost of funds until the fourth quarter due to LIBOR locks currently in place.

Income Taxes  Income tax expense in the first three quarters of fiscal year 2000
was $18.5 million compared to $11.5 million in the comparable period last year.
The Company's consolidated effective income tax rate of 38.0% was down from
39.0% due to the implementation of various tax planning initiatives and the
effect of the acquisition of certain foreign subsidiaries.

Minority Interest in Income of Subsidiaries and Income (Loss) From
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures  The year over year change in these items
primarily reflects the Company's acquisition of a majority ownership of Remy
Korea in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999.  This subsidiary was accounted for
under the equity method prior to that.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's short-term liquidity needs include required debt service,
including capital lease payments, day to day operating expenses, working capital
requirements and the funding of capital expenditures.  Long-term liquidity
requirements include principal payments of long-term debt and the funding of
acquisitions.  The Company's principal sources of cash to fund its short-term
liquidity needs consist of cash generated by operations and borrowing under the
Senior Credit Facility.  As of April 30, 2000, borrowings under the Senior
Credit Facility were $159.9 million and utilization of letters of credit totaled
$12.2 million, leaving $127.9 million available under the $300 million facility.

In the first nine months of fiscal 2000, cash provided by operating activities
was $43.3 million compared to $8.0 million in the comparable period of fiscal
1999.  This improvement reflects increased earnings and depreciation, a smaller
increase in net working capital from year-end and lower restructuring payments
and charges.  Accounts receivable declined $2.7 million versus a $19.2 million
increase in 1999.  The $25.4 million increase in inventories reflects a seasonal
build-up in the aftermarket, which should begin to decline in the fourth
quarter.  Accounts payable increased $10.4 million due to production levels and
the timing of payments.  The Company's net trade cycle, including accounts
receivable, inventory and accounts payable days, declined compared with both
year-end and third quarter 1999.

Acquisitions in fiscal 2000 consisted of Knopf ($61.0 million), Engine Master
and Elmot, and in fiscal 1999 consisted primarily of Williams.  Capital
expenditures of $28.8 million in the first three quarters compares with $18.0
million in the comparable period of fiscal 1999.  The increase was due to
enterprise-wide system implementations and equipment supporting new products and
customers.  Total capital spending in fiscal 2000 is expected to be
approximately to $35.0 million.

The increase in net borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit and
other debt of $54.9 million through three quarters reflects the extent to which
cash used for acquisitions and capital expenditures exceeded cash generated by
operating activities.

In late May 2000, the Company, as part of ongoing competitiveness initiatives,
offered an incentive separation payment to DRA hourly employees. The offer
expires in July 2000. The cost of this program, which is dependent on the
number and seniority level of employees accepting the separation payment, will
be recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000.

The Company believes that cash generated from operations, together with the
amounts available under the Senior Credit Facility, will be adequate to meet its
debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for
the foreseeable future, although no assurance can be given in this regard.  The
Company's future operating performance and ability to service, extend, or
refinance its indebtedness will be

                                       21

subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other
factors that are beyond the Company's control.

SEASONALITY

The Company's business is moderately seasonal, as its major OEM customers
historically have one- to two-week summer shutdowns of operations during the
fourth fiscal quarter.  In addition, the Company typically has shut down its own
operations for one week each July, depending on backlog, scheduled maintenance
and inventory buffers, as well as an additional week during the December
holidays. Consequently, the Company's second and fourth quarter results reflect
the effects of these shutdowns.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000

In prior years, the Company discussed the nature and progress of its plans to
become Year 2000 ready.  In December 1999, the Company completed its remediation
and testing of all major information technology based systems.  As a result of
those planning and implementation efforts, the Company experienced no
significant disruptions in mission critical information technology and non-
information technology systems and believes those systems successfully responded
to the Year 2000 date change.  The Company expensed approximately $2.0 million
in connection with remediating its systems.  The Company is not aware of any
material problems resulting from Year 2000 issues, either with its products, its
internal systems, or the products and services of third parties.  The Company
will continue to monitor its mission critical computer applications and those of
its suppliers and vendors throughout calendar year 2000 to ensure that any
latent Year 2000 matters that may arise are addressed promptly.

FOREIGN SALES

A portion of the Company's sales are derived from sales made to customers in
foreign countries.  Because of these foreign sales, the Company's business is
subject to the risks of doing business abroad, including currency exchange rate
fluctuations, limits on repatriation of funds, compliance with foreign laws and
other economic and political uncertainties.
