                             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 six months
ended December 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1997.





Note B - Debt
On October 24, 1995, the Company entered into a $25,000,000 Revolving Credit
and Term Loan Agreement with a Bank. This agreement replaces the agreement in
effect as of September 21, 1989, as amended. On October 23, 1996, the Bank
approved a one year extension of the revolving credit facility and term loan
option. The Company now has the option to convert borrowings thereunder
(classified as long-term debt) to a term note through October 31, 1999, the
new expiration date of the Agreement. Payments under the term note, if the
conversion option is exercised, would be made quarterly and could extend to
October 31, 2001. As of December 31, 1996, there was $5,185,000 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
