                              FEDERAL SCREW WORKS
              NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)





Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1997.





Note B - Debt

The Company has a $25,000,000 Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement with a
Bank. Under the amended agreement the Company has the option to convert
borrowings thereunder (classified as long-term debt) to a term note through
October 31, 1999, the expiration date of the Agreement. Payments under the
term note, if the conversion option is exercised, would be made quarterly
commencing three months following conversion until maturity of the term note
on October 31, 2001. As of September 30, 1996, there was $7,120,000 in
outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement.





Note C - Dividends

Cash dividends per share are based on the number of shares outstanding at the
respective dates of declaration. The dividends declared in the first quarter
of fiscal 1997 include a special dividend of $.80 per share which was paid
October 1, 1996.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations




RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Net sales for the Company's first quarter ended
September 30, 1996, increased $2,802,000, or 13.4%, compared with net sales
for the first quarter of the prior year. The increase is largely attributable
to the continued strong demand in North American automobile sales.

Gross profit for the three month period ended September 30, 1996, increased
$517,000, or 25.1%, as compared with gross profit for the first quarter of the
prior year. The increase is attributable mainly to the increased sales as well
as improved productivity.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $140,000, or 12.7%, for the
first quarter ended September 30, 1996, as compared with the first quarter of
the prior year. The increase is comparable to the increase in sales.



DIVIDENDS: The Board of Directors, in August 1996, declared a $.10 per share
dividend and an extra $.80 per share dividend, paid October 1, 1996, to
shareholders of record September 6, 1996.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: Working capital increased by $584,000 from
$13,613,000 at June 30, 1996, to $14,197,000 at September 30, 1996.

At September 30, 1996, the Company had available $17,880,000 under its bank
credit agreement.

Capital expenditures for the three month period ended September 30, 1996, were
approximately $0.6 million, and, for the year, are expected to approximate
$5.0 million, of which approximately $2.0 million has been committed as of
