                         Report of Independent Auditors


Amcast Industrial Corporation
401(k) Salary Deferral Plan

We were engaged to audit the accompanying financial statements and schedules of
the Amcast Industrial Corporation 401(k) Salary Deferral Plan as of August 31,
1993 and 1992 and for the years then ended, as listed in the table of contents.
These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's
management.

As permitted by CFR 29 Section 2520.103-8 of the Department of Labor's Rules
and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, the plan administrator instructed us not perform,
and we did not perform, any auditing procedures with respect to the investment
information summarized in Note 4, which was certified by The Boston Safe
Deposit and Trust Company, the trustee of the Plan, except for comparing such
information with the related information included in the financial statements
and supplemental schedules. We have been informed by the plan administrator
that the trustee holds the Plan's investment assets and executes investment
transactions. The plan administrator has obtained a certification from the
trustee as of and for the years ended August 31, 1993 and 1992 that the
information provided to the plan administrator by the trustee is complete and
accurate.

Because of the significance of the information that we did not audit, we are
unable to, and do not, express an opinion on the accompanying financial
statements and schedules taken as a whole. The form and content of the
information included in the financial statements and schedules, other than that
derived from the investment information certified by the trustee, have been
audited by us in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, in
our opinion, are presented in compliance with the Department of Labor's Rules
and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Plan's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting.

Marketable securities are stated at aggregate current value.

The fair value of Amcast Industrial Corporation common stock and the
participation units owed by the Plan in the equity mutual fund are based on
quoted redemption value on the last business day of the plan year.

The unallocated insurance contracts are valued at contract value as estimated
by John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company (the insurance company). Contract
value represents contributions made under the contract, plus interest at the
contract rate, less funds used to pay retirement benefits and to pay for the
insurance company's administrative expenses.

The difference between the current value and the cost of investments (including
investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) is reflected in
the statement of plan income, expense, and changes in net assets as net
realized and unrealized appreciation on securities.

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The Amcast Industrial Corporation 401(k) Salary Deferral Plan is a
contributory, defined contribution plan which covers substantially all
employees of the Company who are compensated on a salary basis.

Participants are 50% vested after one year of service with the Company, 75%
vested after two years of service, and fully vested after three years of
service. Vested benefits are paid by several optional methods upon retirement,
death, or termination.

The Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue such contributions at
any time and terminate the Plan. In the event of a termination of the Plan, all
accounts will be considered 100% vested and the assets of the Plan will be set
aside, in full, to be distributed as each participant elects.





                                                                             4

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)

The Plan allows for employee-deferred compensation contributions (participants
can contribute from 1% to 15% of their annual compensation) and allows for
transfers by participants from any other plan meeting the requirements of
Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 401(a). Under the Plan, a participant may
have up to three accounts, depending on the source of the funds contributed or
transferred. The Company makes matching contributions equal to 15% of the
employee's deferred compensation contribution, up to a maximum of 6% of the
participant's total compensation for the Plan year. Additionally, Amcast will
make supplemental matching contributions to the Plan provided a minimum return
on net worth of 10.1% is obtained. The amount of the supplemental matching
contributions increases based upon the level of return; however, the amount
shall not exceed 35% of the participants' salary deferral contributions.

Under the Plan, participants may borrow up to 50% of their vested balance not
to exceed $50,000. The loan term is not to exceed 5 years unless the loan is
for the purchase of a principal residence, in which case the term may be as
long as 30 years. Interest rates are equal to the rate of interest being
charged on similar types of loans made by a lending institution. The Plan also
provides for the 15% matching contribution by the Company. These matching
contributions are made in common stock of the Company.

Primarily all expenses of the Plan, except investment advisor fees, are paid by
the Company. Information about the Plan agreement, including the vesting and
benefit provisions, is available from the Pension Administration Committee of
the Company.

3. UNALLOCATED INSURANCE CONTRACT

The unallocated insurance contracts are two Term Accumulation Guarantee (TAG)
Contracts with the insurance company. The contracts were effective September 1,
1988 and 1990 and guarantee annual rates of return of 9.95% and 9.25%,
respectively.





                                                                            5

4. PLAN INVESTMENT FUNDS

Plan participants may contribute to three funds--stable value fund (includes
unallocated insurance contracts), mutual funds, and Amcast Industrial
Corporation common stock. All employer contributions to the Plan are invested

The Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company maintains all of the above
investments.

7. INCOME TAX STATUS

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has ruled that the Plan qualifies under
Section 401(a) of the IRC and, therefore, the underlying trust is not subject
to income tax under present tax law. Once qualified, the Plan is required to
operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification. The Pension
Administration Committee is not aware of any course of action or series of
events that have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan's qualified
status.
