                    Notes To Unaudited Financial Statements
                         (Dollar amounts in thousands)


Note A - The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared
         in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore,
         do not include all information and footnotes necessary for the
         fair presentation of financial position, statements of income and
         cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
         principles.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments have
         been made which are necessary for a fair statement of the results
         of operations for the six month period ended April 30, 1995
         and April 30, 1994.  The adjustments made to the unaudited
         financial statements were of a normal, recurring nature.  The
         results for the six months ended April 30, 1995 are not
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year
         ending October 31, 1995.


Note B - Total interest paid by the Company on its short and long-term debt
         obligations in the six months ended April 30, 1995 and 1994
         was $2,756 and $1,715 respectively.


Note C - The financial information included herein has been taken from the
         records of the Company without examination by independent
         auditors.


Note D - Change in Method of Accounting for Income Taxes


         Effective November 1, 1993, the Company adopted FASB Statement No.
         109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under Statement 109, the
         liability method is used in accounting for income taxes.  Under
         this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined
         based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of
         assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax
         rates and laws that are in effect currently.  Prior to the
         adoption of Statement 109, income tax expense was determined using
         the deferred method, under which deferred tax expense was based on
         items of income and expense that were reported in different years
         in the financial statements and tax returns and was measured at
         the tax rate in effect in the year the difference originated.


         As permitted by Statement 109, the Company has elected not to
         restate the financial statements of any prior years.  The
         cumulative effect of the change increased net income by $332 or
         $.06 per share in the six month period ended April 30, 1994.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis




Sales for the second quarter ended April 30, 1995 increased 15% to a record
$29,725,000 from $25,959,000 in the second quarter 1994.  After-tax income
from operations increased 11% to a record $2,075,000 ($.41 per share) from
$1,866,000 ($.37 per share) for the second quarter 1994.


Sales for the six months ended April 30, 1995 were $52,408,000, a 24%
increase over $42,351,000 in the year earlier period.  After-tax income
from operations was $2,709,000 ($.54 per share) for the six month period
ended April 30, 1995, a 15% increase over $2,354,000 ($.47 per share) for
the same period a year ago.


On November 23, 1994, ABS issued a letter of intent to acquire Machine Tool
& Gear, Inc. (MT & G) in an exchange of stock.  The purpose of the
acquisition was to add machining capability and meet customer demand.
After some due diligence we have decided to add additional machining
capability to Colmach in space built in 1994 rather than purchase MT & G.
This capability, including spline rolling, induction hardening, gun
drilling and broaching, will be in place beginning August 1995.


The additional machining capability as well as the global competitiveness
of our cost structure is expected to produce record years in 1995, 1996 and
1997, matching the historical perspective of 15-20% sales increase per
year.  Overtime and other expenses remain under control creating
expectations for higher levels of profitability.
