         As of March 31, 1997, 1,183,795 shares of common stock were reserved
         for exercise of stock options and grants of restricted shares.

3.       Dividends.

         Dividends paid during the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 were
         based on 23,504,850 and 24,445,392 respectively, common shares
         outstanding on the applicable dates of record.

4.       Earnings per share.

         Earnings per share for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 were
         based on average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding
         of 23,766,368 and 24,792,964, respectively.

5.       Contingencies.

         The Company is involved as a "potentially responsible party" at five
         former public waste disposal sites which may be subject to remediation
         under pending government procedures. The sites are in various stages of
         evaluation by federal and state environmental authorities. The
         projected cost of remediating these sites, as well as the Company's
         alleged "fair share" allocation, is uncertain and speculative until all
         studies have been completed and the parties have either negotiated an
         amicable resolution or the matter has been judicially resolved. At each
         site, there are many other parties who have similarly been identified,
         and the identification and location of additional parties is continuing
         under applicable federal or state law. Many of the other parties
         identified are financially strong and solvent companies which appear
         able to pay their share of the remediation costs. Based on the
         Company's preliminary information about the waste disposal practices at
         these sites and the environmental regulatory process in general, the
         Company believes that it is likely that ultimate remediation liability
         costs for each site will be apportioned among all liable parties,
         including site owners and waste transporters, according to the volumes
         and/or toxicity of the wastes shown to have been disposed of at the
         sites.

         The Company is a defendant in numerous pending lawsuits (which include,
         in many cases, multiple claimants) which seek to recover damages for
         alleged personal injury allegedly resulting from exposure to asbestos
         containing products formerly manufactured and distributed by the
         Company. All such products were used within self-contained process
         equipment, and management does not believe that there was any emission
         of ambient asbestos fiber during the use of this equipment. The Company
         has resolved numerous claims at an average of about $106 per claim, the
         cost of which was fully paid by insurance. The Company continues to
         have a substantial amount of available insurance from financially
         solvent carriers to cover the cost of both defending and resolving the
         claims.

         The Company is also a defendant in several other products liability
         lawsuits which are insured, subject to the applicable deductibles, and
         certain other non-insured lawsuits received in the ordinary course of
         business. The Company has fully accrued the estimated loss reserve for
         each such lawsuit. No insurance recovery has been projected for any of
         the insured claims because management currently believes that all will
         be resolved within applicable deductibles.

         Although none of the aforementioned gives rise to any additional
         liability that can now be reasonably estimated, it is possible that the
         Company could incur additional costs in the range of $250,000 to
         $1,000,000 over the upcoming five years to fully resolve these matters.
         Although the Company has accrued the minimum end of this range as a
         precaution, management has no current reason to believe that any such
         additional costs are probable or quantifiable. The Company will
         continue to evaluate these contingent loss exposures and, if they
         develop, recognize expense as soon as such losses can be reasonably
         estimated.

6.       Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standard

         In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
         Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which is required to be adopted
         on December 31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be required to
         change the method currently used to compute earnings per share and to
         restate all prior periods. Under the new requirements for calculating
         primary earnings per share, the dilutive effect of stock options would
         be excluded. The impact of Statement 128 on the calculation of primary
         and fully diluted earnings per share is not material for the periods
         presented.

7.       Merger

         On May 6, 1997, the Company announced that it had reached a definitive
         agreement to merge with BW/IP, Inc. in a stock-for-stock merger of
         equals that will be accounted for as a pooling of interests
         transaction. Post-merger, the Company will operate under a new name,
         which will be announced before the transaction closes. BW/IP and Durco
         are two of the largest manufacturers and distributors of pumps, seals,
         valves and control valves in the U.S., and the strategic combination
         will create a leading global supplier of fluid handling and control
         equipment.

         The agreement calls for Durco shareholders to retain their present
         shares, and for BW/IP shareholders to receive .6968 shares of Durco
         common stock. The exchange ratio was based on the average ratio of
         closing share prices for the 15 consecutive trading days ended May 2,
         1997. Completion of the merger is subject to approval by the
         shareholders of both Durco and BW/IP at meetings that are expected to
         be held over the summer, and the expiration of all applicable waiting
         periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976.
         Durco and BW/IP have agreed to pay each other termination fees and to
         reimburse certain expenses in the event the merger is not consummated
         because of a competing transaction. The companies have also granted
         each other options for 19.9% of each other's common stock exercisable
         under certain circumstances.

         BW/IP is a worldwide supplier of advanced-technology fluid transfer and
         control equipment, systems and services. Its principal products are
         pumps, mechanical seals and valves. In 1996, BW/IP reported sales of
         $492.2 million and generated net earnings of $27.8 million.

8.       Name Change

         On April 23, 1997 the Company announced it has legally changed its
         corporate name to Durco International Inc., following approval by its
         Board of Directors and shareholders.
                  ---------------------------------------------





         The financial information contained in this report is unaudited, but,
         in the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal
         recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the
         operating results for the period have been made.

                      Management's Discussion and Analysis

                of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     Capital Resources and Liquidity - Three Months Ended March 31, 1997

         The Company's capital structure, consisting of long-term debt, deferred
     items and shareholders' equity, continues to enable the Company to finance
     short and long-range business objectives. At March 31, 1997, long-term debt
     was 18.5% of the Company's capital structure, compared to 19.3% at December
     31, 1996. Based upon annualized 1997 results, the interest coverage ratio
     of the Company's indebtedness was 13.1 at March 31, 1997, compared with
     14.0 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1996.

         The return on average net assets at March 31, 1997 was 14.2% based upon
     1997 annualized results, compared to 14.3% at December 31, 1996. Annualized
     return on average shareholders' equity was 21.9% at March 31, 1997,
     compared to 21.7% at December 31, 1996. Management continues to focus on
     improving its performance in these areas as many of the Company's incentive
     compensation plans are linked to return on net assets and economic value
     added measurements.

         Capital spending in 1997 is expected to be over $20.0 million, compared
     with $16.9 million in 1996. The 1997 expenditures will be invested in low
     cost manufacturing facilities in India, new product development and machine
     replacement and upgrades.

         The Company's liquidity position is reflected in a current ratio of 2.8
     to 1 at March 31, 1997. This compares to 2.6 to 1 at December 31, 1996.
     Cash in excess of current requirements was invested in high-grade,
     short-term securities. Cash and amounts available under borrowing
     arrangements will be adequate to fund operating needs and capital
     expenditures through the remainder of the year.

         On May 6, 1997, the Company announced that it had reached a definitive
     agreement to merge with BW/IP, Inc. in a stock-for-stock merger of equals
     that will be accounted for as a pooling of interests transaction.
     Post-merger, the company will operate under a new name, which will be
     announced before the transaction closes. BW/IP and Durco are two of the
     largest manufacturers and distributors of pumps, seals, valves and control
     valves in the U.S., and the strategic combination will create a leading
     global supplier of fluid handling and control equipment.

         The agreement calls for Durco shareholders to retain their present
     shares, and for BW/IP shareholders to receive .6968 shares of Durco common
     stock. The exchange ratio was based on the average ratio of closing share
     prices for the 15 consecutive trading days ended May 2, 1997. Completion of
     the merger is subject to approval by the shareholders of both Durco and
     BW/IP at meetings that are expected to be held over the summer, and the
     expiration of all applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
     Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976. Durco and BW/IP have agreed to pay each
     other termination fees and to reimburse certain expenses in the event the
     merger is not consummated because of a competing transaction. The companies
     have

     also granted each other options for 19.9% of each other's common stock
     exercisable under certain circumstances.

         BW/IP is a worldwide supplier of advanced-technology fluid transfer and
     control equipment, systems and services. Its principal products are pumps,
     mechanical seals and valves. In 1996, BW/IP reported sales of $492.2
     million and generated net earnings of $27.8 million.

     Results of Operations - Three Months Ended March 31, 1997

         Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were $147.8
     million, compared to net sales of $149.2 million for the same period in
     1996. The decrease in net sales reflects customer delayed project shipments
     of flow control equipment and strengthening of the U.S. dollar against
     European currencies. Foreign contributions to consolidated net sales were
     33.3% and 33.6% for the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996,
     respectively. The slight decline reflects the impact of currencies. Total
     net sales to foreign customers including export sales from the U.S. were
     41.6% and 40.3%, respectively. The increase in foreign contributions
     reflects higher levels of shipments into the Asia-Pacific markets.

         Incoming business was $153.6 million for the first three months of
     1997. This compares to an unusually high $157.0 million in 1996's first
     quarter when several large projects were booked. Backlog at March 31, 1997
     was $114.9 million, compared with a backlog of $111.9 million at December
     31, 1996. The Company remains committed to its program of reducing
     throughput time and meeting customer request dates for deliveries.

         The gross profit margin was 40.6% for the three months ended March 31,
     1997. This compares to 40.2% for the same period in 1996. The margin
     reflects a normal quarterly product mix and the favorable impact of
     continued emphasis on cost control.

          Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales for
     the three months ended March 31, 1997 were 24.1%, compared to 24.4% for the
     same period in 1996. The decrease in expense as a percentage of net sales
     is consistent with the Company's plan to further leverage expense and
     control costs in 1997 while continuing to invest in the development and
     growth of international operations.

         Research, engineering and development expense as a percentage of net
     sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was 3.0%, compared with
     2.9% for the same period in 1996. The expense level during the first
     quarter of 1997 reflects the Company's continued investment in new products
     and production processes.

         Other expense was $0.7 million for the three month period ended March
     31, 1997, compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 1996. The
     decrease in expense reflects lower levels of long and short term incentive
     compensation expense as the Company's results were below plan. The decrease
     also reflects foreign currency transaction losses in 1997 compared with
     slight gains in 1996.

         The effective tax rate for the first three months of 1997 was 38.0%,
     compared with 37.0% in 1996. The 1996 effective tax rate included
     significant benefits associated with utilization of tax loss carryforwards
     which are not expected to occur in 1997.

         Record first quarter 1997 net earnings were $11.1 million, or $.47 per
     share, compared with $10.1 million, or $.41 per share, for the same period
     in 1996. The 9.3% increase in profits reflects the Company's efforts to
     control costs as both cost of sales and selling and administrative expenses
     declined. Net earnings for future quarters of 1997 and thereafter are
     uncertain and dependent on general worldwide economic conditions in the
     Company's major markets and their strong impact on the level of incoming
     business activity.
