                WOODWARD GOVERNOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
                 NOTE TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 1993, and the statements of
consolidated earnings and cash flows for the three month periods ended
December 31, 1993 and 1992, have been prepared by the Company, without audit.
The September 30, 1993 consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited
financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles.  Information furnished in this 10-Q
report is based in part on approximations and is subject to year-end
adjustment and audit. The figures do reflect all adjustments necessary, in the
opinion of management, to present fairly the Company's financial position as
of December 31, 1993, and the results of its operations for the three  months
ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, and cash flows for the three months then
ended.  All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.  The
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting policies set forth
in the Company's 1993 annual report on Form 10-K and should be read in
conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements therein.  The
results for the last fiscal year have been restated to reflect the adoption of
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions", No. 109 "Accounting for
Income Taxes", and No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for Post-employment
Benefits", which the company adopted in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1993. 
The statements of consolidated earnings for the three month period ended
December 31, 1993 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for other interim periods or for the full year.

                WOODWARD GOVERNOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Net billings for products and services delivered to customers in the first
quarter of fiscal year 1994 were down 5% to $73,940,000 from $77,849,000 in
1993.  Our efforts to reduce costs and limit expenses resulted in a decrease
of 6% compared to last year.  Consequently, earnings before income taxes and
cumulative effect of accounting changes increased from $4,646,000 at December
31, 1992 to $4,888,000 at December 31, 1993.  Due to the increase in the
estimated effective income tax rate from 38% to 43%, earnings before the
cumulative effect of accounting changes decreased from $2,881,000 to
$2,786,000 for the same periods.  Earnings per share before cumulative effect
of accounting changes decreased from $0.97 per share in the first quarter last
year to $0.94 per share this year.

The results for the last fiscal year have been restated to reflect the
adoption of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions", No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes", and No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for Post-
employment Benefits", which the company adopted in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 1993, but for reporting purposes must be presented as if adopted at the
beginning of the year.  The cumulative effect of adopting these accounting
changes in fiscal 1993 was a charge of $17,417,000 net of the tax benefit of
$11,360,000.  The effect on last year's first quarter earnings before income
taxes and cumulative effect of accounting changes was a decrease of $302,000.

Shipments of the Aircraft Controls group were $31,924,000 in the first quarter
of this year, compared to $40,483,000 last year, a decrease of $8,559,000 or
21%, due to the depressed state of the commercial aircraft industry.  First
quarter shipments of the Industrial Controls group were $42,016,000, an
increase of $4,650,000 or 12% from last year's total of $37,366,000.  Overall,
shipments from the overseas business units of industrial control products were
up $2,250,000 or over 14% from last year.  Domestic shipments of industrial
control products also were strong in the first quarter and were up $2,400,000
or 11% from last year.

The 6% decrease in costs and expenses occurred even though there were
additional facility operating expenses for the new Turbomachinery Controls
facility in Loveland, Colorado in the first quarter of this year.  The plant
was not opened until the second quarter of fiscal year 1993.  Our cost
reduction efforts of the last two years are having a positive impact on
earnings.  A significant portion of the decrease in costs and expenses is due
to the decrease in worker membership.  Since December 31, 1992, worker
membership has been reduced by more than 10% from 3589 to 3217 at December 31,
1993.  This reduction was necessary to balance the membership needed with
current business levels.

<PAGE>
Accounts receivable decreased from $64,024,000 at September 30, 1993 to
$57,717,000 at December 31, 1993 due to collection of large shipments made
near the end of the fiscal year and the lower shipment level for the first
three months of the current fiscal year compared to the fourth quarter of
fiscal year 1993.  Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased as a result
of payments on items recorded at September 30, 1993.  As a result of the
activity in these areas and reduction in short-term borrowing, cash and cash
equivalents decreased from $10,497,000 at September 30, 1993 to $3,880,000 at
December 31, 1993.  Currency translation adjustment decreased from September
30, 1993 as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates.

The company's effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 1993
and 1992 was 43.0% and 38.0% respectively.  The increase in the tax rate was
due primarily to the fact that a significant portion of our income was
generated at overseas locations at higher tax rates than in the United States. 
The effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1993 was 42.0%.
