NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1.
- - -------
The accompanying unaudited 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
Rule 10-01 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 statement have been included. Operating
results for the nine month period ended May 31, 1994 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
August 31, 1994. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 1993.
NOTE 2.
- - -------
Fiscal 1993 results have been restated for the Frictiontech Inc. pooling
of interests transaction which occurred in June 1993.
NOTE 3.
- - -------
During February 1994, Echlin acquired Neelon Casting Ltd.(Neelon),
located in Canada, for approximately $23,000,000. Neelon is a producer
of automotive disc brake rotor castings for the replacement and original
equipment markets. The acquisition was accounted for by the purchase
method.
In October 1993, the company purchased the Hydraulic Brake and Clutch
Division of FAG Kugelfischer Georg Schafer A.G., located in Germany, for
approximately $59,700,000. In addition, if this acquired operation
exceeds certain net income thresholds during the first five years
subsequent to the acquisition date, the purchase price will be increased
by not more than $14,000,000. The acquisition was accounted for by the
purchase method.
NOTE 4.
- - -------
During the first quarter of fiscal 1994, the company adopted the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (FAS
109), "Accounting for Income Taxes." FAS 109 changes the accounting for
income taxes from the deferred to an asset and liability method. The
cumulative effect of adopting this accounting change was a $2,583,000
increase in net income.

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Results of Operations:
- - ----------------------
Three Months Ended May 31, 1994 vs. Three Months Ended May 31, 1993
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the three months ended May 31, 1994 increased 17.4 percent
while comparable operations increased 8.9 percent over the corresponding
quarter of a year ago. Both domestic and foreign comparable net sales
increased; 10.0 and 6.0 percent, respectively, over the same three month
period of a year ago. Domestic comparable operations increased
primarily due to unit volume gains, the impact of price increases and
new product sales. Overall domestic net sales performance was strong
for all product lines with the largest contributor continuing to be the
automotive brake group. Increased foreign net sales were primarily due
to the impact of price increases, higher unit volume and the
introduction of new products; partially offset by the negative impact of
translation. The negative translation impact was a result of the
strengthening of the U.S. dollar in relation to the British pound,
German mark, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso and South African rand.
The quarter's percentage of gross profit to sales increased to 30.1
percent from the prior year's third quarter 29.7 percent. The
improvements are primarily attributable to increased domestic and
foreign production levels and continued improvements in operational
efficiencies.
Selling and administrative expenses declined as a percentage of sales to
20.2 percent from 20.7 percent of a year ago. The dollar increase in
these expenses is primarily attributed to expense levels generated by
current year acquisitions and higher expenses as a result of the
increase in sales volume.
Net interest expense increased $1,088,000 primarily a result of higher
domestic average interest rates and debt levels. Interest income rose
due to the growth of our Puerto Rican investment portfolio.
Nine Months Ended May 31, 1994 vs. Nine Months Ended May 31, 1993
- - ------------------------------------------------------------------
For the nine month period net sales increased 12.8 percent. Domestic
comparable sales improved 7.0 percent due to increases in unit volume
and the introduction of new products, in addition to the positive impact
of price increases. All product groups reported improvements. Foreign
comparable operations are 1.0 percent above the prior year, as the
impact of increased unit volume and sales of new products was almost
totally offset by the negative effect of translation.
The percentage of gross profit to net sales for the nine months
increased to 29.4 percent from 29.0 percent a year ago. This
improvement is primarily attributable to increased domestic production
levels along with continued monitoring of costs.

MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL ANALYSIS(cont.'d)
- - ----------------------------------------
Although selling and administrative expenses are $29,689,000 higher than
a year ago for the nine month period, as a percentage of sales they
declined favorably to 21.1 percent from 21.7 percent. The dollar
increase is primarily due to expense levels from current year
acquisitions.
Net interest expense rose $988,000 over last year due to higher domestic
average interest rates and debt levels. Average debt levels increased
due to funds required to acquire new businesses.
Net income for the nine months ended May 31, 1994 included income of
$2,583,000, which represented the cumulative effect of adopting the
provisions of FAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," during the first
quarter.
Liquidity and Sources of Capital:
- - ---------------------------------
During the first nine months of fiscal 1994, operations provided
$28,864,000 of cash flow as compared to the same period of fiscal 1993
when operations provided $82,816,000. This change reflected a higher
level of net income offset by larger cash outflows for working capital
items. Accounts receivable were higher due to the increased sales
levels while outflows for taxes are up as a result of the company's
higher earnings.
As a result of the increase in working capital, caused by the growth of
existing businesses and the need for funds to acquire new businesses,
debt levels rose $152,275,000 from year-end, net of debt assumed in the
acquisitions.
During the month of June 1994, the company renegotiated its revolving
credit agreement (RCA) which was due to expire on September 1, 1994.
Under the terms of the new agreement with twelve banking institutions,
the company has the availability through September 1, 1999 of maximum
borrowings of $375,000,000. The old agreement provided for maximum
borrowings of $350,000,000. There are currently no borrowings
outstanding under the RCA.
Net capital expenditures, which were $18,980,000 above last year,
represent outlays for new product development and manufacturing
improvements.
