contaminants.  As required by law, the Company notified the
Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).
In 1995, the Company received a Tier 1 Transition
Classification and Permit Statement Cover Letter designating
the site as a Tier 1C Site under the Massachusetts
Contingency Plan.  Those response actions culminated in the
filing of a Class "C" Response Action Outcome Statement with
the DEP in September 1998.  Based upon the information
presently available, periodic monitoring is required, the
cost of which is not expected to be significant.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

During the quarter ended July 3, 1999, the Company sold
Webstone, one of its two operating divisions, to the former
President of that division for approximately $1,789,000, as
more fully described below.  As a result, the Company has
three classes of income (loss) for reporting purposes for
the quarter:  income from continuing operations; income from
discontinued operations (the sold Webstone division), and
loss on the sale of the Webstone division.

The decision by the Board of Directors to sell the Webstone
division followed a strategic analysis of Goddard's position
in both the plumbing supplies business, where it is a
relatively small competitor, and the cryogenic valve
business, where it is a market leader in the Western
Hemisphere.  There is little synergy between these two
business sectors, and the decision to sell Webstone will
enable the Company to focus its financial and management
resources on the cryogenic valve industry.

The Board of Directors was also aware that Michael Reck,
President of the Webstone division since 1996, had expressed
interest in acquiring the Webstone business from the
Company.  Because Michael Reck is the son of Saul I. Reck,
founder and Chairman of the Board of the Company, and the
brother of Joel Reck, Clerk and legal counsel to the
Company, the Board of Directors appointed a special
committee of the Board of Directors to conduct negotiations
with Michael E. Reck concerning the sale of the Webstone
business to him.  The special committee consisted of Messrs.
Humphrey,, Knopp, and Wimmergren, the three outside
directors, and Mr. Salvatore J. Vinciguerra, the President
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  Messrs. Saul
Reck and Joel Reck did not participate in discussions
concerning the transaction.  In addition, because Joel Reck
is a member of the law firm of Brown Rudnick Freed & Gesmer
which normally acts as the Company's legal counsel, the
special committee retained separate legal counsel for the
purpose of negotiating the transaction with Michael Reck.
The special committee also retained the investment banking
firm of Fechtor Detwiler, Inc. to advise it on the
transaction.  After several months of negotiations between
the Company and Michael Reck, the special committee reached
an agreement to sell the stock of the Webstone subsidiary to
him for a purchase price of $1,789,000 - $1,389,000 in cash
at closing, $150,000 in the form of a ninety day non-
interest-bearing loan, and $250,000 in preferred stock of
Webstone.  Fechtor Detwiler, Inc. provided an opinion to the
Board of Directors that the transaction was fair to the
Company.

The sale of the Webstone subsidiary to Michael Reck was
completed July 2, 1999.  At the time of the sale, the
Webstone subsidiary had a book value of $2,016,000.  As a
result of the difference in value between book value and
purchase price, transactional cost associated with the sale,
and reserves taken, there was a loss on the sale of $409,000
or $.19 per share.





                            -13-


Results of Operations

Net sales from continuing operations for the quarter ended
July 3, 1999 were $1,109,000, with net income from
continuing operations of $54,000, or $.03 per share.  This
compared with net sales of $1,329,000 and net income of
$149,000, or $.07 per share, from continuing operations for
the same quarter of fiscal 1998.  Net sales from
discontinued operations for the quarter were $956,000, with
a net loss from discontinued operations of $33,000, or $.02
per share.  This compared with net sales of $973,000 and net
income of $32,000, or $.01 per share, from discontinued
operations for the same quarter of fiscal 1998.  The sale of
Webstone resulted in a book loss of $409,000, or $.19 per
share.  As a result, consolidated net loss for the third
quarter of fiscal 1999 from continuing operations,
discontinued operations, and loss on the sale of Webstone
was $387,000, or $.18 per share, compared with net income of
$180,000, or $.08 per share, for the same quarter of fiscal
1998.

Net sales from continuing operations for the nine months
ended July 3, 1999 were $3,879,000, with net income from
continuing operations of $324,000, or $.15 per share.  This
compared with net sales of $4,375,000 and net income of
$510,000, or $.24 per share, from continuing operations for
the same period of fiscal 1998.  Net sales from discontinued
operations for the nine months ended July 3, 1999 were
$3,018,000, with net income from discontinued operations of
$30,000, or $.01 per share.  This compared with net sales of
$2,826,000 and net income of $16,000, or $.01 per share,
from discontinued operations for the same period of fiscal
1998.

Consolidated net loss for the nine months ended July 3, 1999
from continuing operations, discontinued operations, and
loss on sale of Webstone was $55,000, or $.03 per share,
compared with new income from continuing operations and
discontinued operations of $526,000, or $.25 per share for
the same period last year.  There were no extraordinary
gains or losses in the nine month period ending June 30,
1998.

Gross profit margins from continuing operations for the
third quarter of fiscal 1999 declined to 36.6% from 39% in
the corresponding quarter of fiscal 1998 because fixed
overhead did not decline in the same proportion as the
reduction in volume during the third quarter.  Selling and
administration expenses from continuing operations increased
as a percentage of revenue from 21% in the third quarter of
fiscal 1998 to 27.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 1999,
reflecting slightly higher administrative costs at a lower
volume.

Gross profit margins from continuing operations for the
first nine months of fiscal 1999 declined slightly to 38.2%
from 39% in the corresponding period of fiscal 1998.
Selling and administrative expenses from continuing
operations increased as a percentage of revenue to 23.7%
during the first nine months of fiscal 1999, compared to
20.0% during the corresponding period of fiscal 1998.  The
increase in selling and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues was due in part to the lower volume
and costs associated with the transition in the position of
President and Chief Executive Officer in the first quarter
of the fiscal year.



                             -14-


Result of Operation (continued)

The downward trend in orders received year-to-year from
cryogenic valve operations continued despite signs reported
in the last quarter that the decline in year to year orders
received had moderated.  Orders received from cryogenic
valve operations in the quarter ended July 3, 1999 were
$938,000 compared with $1,479,000 in the same quarter last
year.  For the nine months, orders received were $3,504,000,
compared with $4,537,000 last year.  Two customers account
for virtually the entire year-to-year decline of $1,033,000.
Orders from our largest customer in the first nine months of
this year were $835,000 compared with $1,415,000 in the same
period last year, and orders from our second largest
customer were $395,000 compared with $820,000 in the same
period last year.  Management believes that those reductions
are representative of reductions in spending by those
customers and the remainder of the industry, and do not
reflect losses in the Company's market share.  Few new air
separation plants are being constructed anywhere in the
world at the moment, reflecting continued stagnation in new
plant and equipment spending in air separation plants in
Asia, coupled with extra capacity in the industry created
during the 1996-1997 expansion.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

Historically, the Company has funded operations through
earnings and bank borrowings.  However, the sale of the
Webstone business has enhanced the Company's balance sheet
and provides it with additional liquidity.  At July 3, 1999,
the Company had paid off all long term debt except equipment
leases of $179,000 and had approximately $1,380,000 in cash
and cash equivalents.  The Company's $1,750,000 line of
credit with BankBoston has been temporarily discontinued
while the Company reviewed its capital requirements for the
restructured operations.

The Company believes that its working capital and cash
position, provide sufficient liquidity to handle the normal
working capital requirements of its business.

During the first nine months of fiscal 1999, operating
activities from continuing operations produced $584,000 of
cash.  The major sources of cash were net income from
continuing operations and depreciation.

The Company received $888,000 in cash from discontinued
operations and invested approximately $98,000 in property
and equipment during the nine months ended July 3, 1999,
compared to $208,000 during the corresponding period of the
prior year.  Historically, the Company has borrowed funds
for period of up to five years for the purchase of new
machinery and met the required amortization and interest
payments from its current working capital.

The Company's results of operations have not been materially
affected by seasonality.





                                -15-



Year 2000

Some computers, software, and other equipment include
programming code in which calendar year data is abbreviated
to only two digits.  As a result of this design decision,
some of the systems do not properly recognize a year that
begins with "20" instead of "19".  These problems are widely
expected to increase in frequency and severity as the year
2000 approaches, and are commonly referred to as the "Year
2000 problem".

In March 1999 the Company completed its assessment of the
ability of the computers, systems and electronic equipment
of the Valve division to process information involving the
Year 2000 and beyond accurately, and completed the necessary
corrective actions.  The total cost for assessment and
correction of internal "Year 2000" problems for the Valve
division was approximately $50,000, which was paid out of
working capital and expensed currently.  The Company's
discussions with its suppliers and customers of the Valve
division as to the possible impact of Year 2000 problems has
not disclosed any anticipated problems.  Management believes
that a reasonable "worst case scenario" is that Year 2000
problems would cause delays in deliveries of production
material.  Management has developed contingency plans to
address this worst case scenario.

NOTE 6.  ENVIRONMENTAL MATTER

     The results of a site assessment at the Company's
headquarters in 1987 revealed that there may have been a
release or threat of release of oil or hazardous materials
and that an off-site source may be introducing the
contaminants.  As required by law, the Company notified the
Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).
In 1995, the Company received a Tier 1 Transition
Classification and Permit Statement Cover Letter designating
the site as a Tier 1C Site under the Massachusetts
Contingency Plan.  Those response actions culminated in the
filing of a Class "C" Response Action Outcome Statement with
the DEP in September 1998.  Based upon the information
presently available, periodic monitoring is required, the
cost of which is not expected to be significant.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

During the quarter ended July 3, 1999, the Company sold
Webstone, one of its two operating divisions, to the former
President of that division for approximately $1,789,000, as
more fully described below.  As a result, the Company has
three classes of income (loss) for reporting purposes for
the quarter:  income from continuing operations; income from
discontinued operations (the sold Webstone division), and
loss on the sale of the Webstone division.

The decision by the Board of Directors to sell the Webstone
division followed a strategic analysis of Goddard's position
in both the plumbing supplies business, where it is a
relatively small competitor, and the cryogenic valve
business, where it is a market leader in the Western
Hemisphere.  There is little synergy between these two
business sectors, and the decision to sell Webstone will
enable the Company to focus its financial and management
resources on the cryogenic valve industry.

The Board of Directors was also aware that Michael Reck,
President of the Webstone division since 1996, had expressed
interest in acquiring the Webstone business from the
Company.  Because Michael Reck is the son of Saul I. Reck,
founder and Chairman of the Board of the Company, and the
brother of Joel Reck, Clerk and legal counsel to the
Company, the Board of Directors appointed a special
committee of the Board of Directors to conduct negotiations
with Michael E. Reck concerning the sale of the Webstone
business to him.  The special committee consisted of Messrs.
Humphrey,, Knopp, and Wimmergren, the three outside
directors, and Mr. Salvatore J. Vinciguerra, the President
and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  Messrs. Saul
Reck and Joel Reck did not participate in discussions
concerning the transaction.  In addition, because Joel Reck
is a member of the law firm of Brown Rudnick Freed & Gesmer
which normally acts as the Company's legal counsel, the
special committee retained separate legal counsel for the
purpose of negotiating the transaction with Michael Reck.
The special committee also retained the investment banking
firm of Fechtor Detwiler, Inc. to advise it on the
transaction.  After several months of negotiations between
the Company and Michael Reck, the special committee reached
an agreement to sell the stock of the Webstone subsidiary to
him for a purchase price of $1,789,000 - $1,389,000 in cash
at closing, $150,000 in the form of a ninety day non-
interest-bearing loan, and $250,000 in preferred stock of
Webstone.  Fechtor Detwiler, Inc. provided an opinion to the
Board of Directors that the transaction was fair to the
Company.

The sale of the Webstone subsidiary to Michael Reck was
completed July 2, 1999.  At the time of the sale, the
Webstone subsidiary had a book value of $2,016,000.  As a
result of the difference in value between book value and
purchase price, transactional cost associated with the sale,
and reserves taken, there was a loss on the sale of $409,000
or $.19 per share.





                            -13-


Results of Operations

Net sales from continuing operations for the quarter ended
July 3, 1999 were $1,109,000, with net income from
continuing operations of $54,000, or $.03 per share.  This
compared with net sales of $1,329,000 and net income of
$149,000, or $.07 per share, from continuing operations for
the same quarter of fiscal 1998.  Net sales from
discontinued operations for the quarter were $956,000, with
a net loss from discontinued operations of $33,000, or $.02
per share.  This compared with net sales of $973,000 and net
income of $32,000, or $.01 per share, from discontinued
operations for the same quarter of fiscal 1998.  The sale of
Webstone resulted in a book loss of $409,000, or $.19 per
share.  As a result, consolidated net loss for the third
quarter of fiscal 1999 from continuing operations,
discontinued operations, and loss on the sale of Webstone
was $387,000, or $.18 per share, compared with net income of
$180,000, or $.08 per share, for the same quarter of fiscal
1998.

Net sales from continuing operations for the nine months
ended July 3, 1999 were $3,879,000, with net income from
continuing operations of $324,000, or $.15 per share.  This
compared with net sales of $4,375,000 and net income of
$510,000, or $.24 per share, from continuing operations for
the same period of fiscal 1998.  Net sales from discontinued
operations for the nine months ended July 3, 1999 were
$3,018,000, with net income from discontinued operations of
$30,000, or $.01 per share.  This compared with net sales of
$2,826,000 and net income of $16,000, or $.01 per share,
from discontinued operations for the same period of fiscal
1998.

Consolidated net loss for the nine months ended July 3, 1999
from continuing operations, discontinued operations, and
loss on sale of Webstone was $55,000, or $.03 per share,
compared with new income from continuing operations and
discontinued operations of $526,000, or $.25 per share for
the same period last year.  There were no extraordinary
gains or losses in the nine month period ending June 30,
1998.

Gross profit margins from continuing operations for the
third quarter of fiscal 1999 declined to 36.6% from 39% in
the corresponding quarter of fiscal 1998 because fixed
overhead did not decline in the same proportion as the
reduction in volume during the third quarter.  Selling and
administration expenses from continuing operations increased
as a percentage of revenue from 21% in the third quarter of
fiscal 1998 to 27.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 1999,
reflecting slightly higher administrative costs at a lower
volume.

Gross profit margins from continuing operations for the
first nine months of fiscal 1999 declined slightly to 38.2%
from 39% in the corresponding period of fiscal 1998.
Selling and administrative expenses from continuing
operations increased as a percentage of revenue to 23.7%
during the first nine months of fiscal 1999, compared to
20.0% during the corresponding period of fiscal 1998.  The
increase in selling and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues was due in part to the lower volume
and costs associated with the transition in the position of
President and Chief Executive Officer in the first quarter
of the fiscal year.



                             -14-


Result of Operation (continued)

The downward trend in orders received year-to-year from
cryogenic valve operations continued despite signs reported
in the last quarter that the decline in year to year orders
received had moderated.  Orders received from cryogenic
valve operations in the quarter ended July 3, 1999 were
$938,000 compared with $1,479,000 in the same quarter last
year.  For the nine months, orders received were $3,504,000,
compared with $4,537,000 last year.  Two customers account
for virtually the entire year-to-year decline of $1,033,000.
Orders from our largest customer in the first nine months of
this year were $835,000 compared with $1,415,000 in the same
period last year, and orders from our second largest
customer were $395,000 compared with $820,000 in the same
period last year.  Management believes that those reductions
are representative of reductions in spending by those
customers and the remainder of the industry, and do not
reflect losses in the Company's market share.  Few new air
separation plants are being constructed anywhere in the
world at the moment, reflecting continued stagnation in new
plant and equipment spending in air separation plants in
Asia, coupled with extra capacity in the industry created
during the 1996-1997 expansion.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

Historically, the Company has funded operations through
earnings and bank borrowings.  However, the sale of the
Webstone business has enhanced the Company's balance sheet
and provides it with additional liquidity.  At July 3, 1999,
the Company had paid off all long term debt except equipment
leases of $179,000 and had approximately $1,380,000 in cash
and cash equivalents.  The Company's $1,750,000 line of
credit with BankBoston has been temporarily discontinued
while the Company reviewed its capital requirements for the
restructured operations.

The Company believes that its working capital and cash
position, provide sufficient liquidity to handle the normal
working capital requirements of its business.

During the first nine months of fiscal 1999, operating
activities from continuing operations produced $584,000 of
cash.  The major sources of cash were net income from
continuing operations and depreciation.

The Company received $888,000 in cash from discontinued
operations and invested approximately $98,000 in property
and equipment during the nine months ended July 3, 1999,
compared to $208,000 during the corresponding period of the
prior year.  Historically, the Company has borrowed funds
for period of up to five years for the purchase of new
machinery and met the required amortization and interest
payments from its current working capital.

The Company's results of operations have not been materially
affected by seasonality.





                                -15-



Year 2000

Some computers, software, and other equipment include
programming code in which calendar year data is abbreviated
to only two digits.  As a result of this design decision,
some of the systems do not properly recognize a year that
begins with "20" instead of "19".  These problems are widely
expected to increase in frequency and severity as the year
2000 approaches, and are commonly referred to as the "Year
2000 problem".

In March 1999 the Company completed its assessment of the
ability of the computers, systems and electronic equipment
of the Valve division to process information involving the
Year 2000 and beyond accurately, and completed the necessary
corrective actions.  The total cost for assessment and
correction of internal "Year 2000" problems for the Valve
division was approximately $50,000, which was paid out of
working capital and expensed currently.  The Company's
discussions with its suppliers and customers of the Valve
division as to the possible impact of Year 2000 problems has
not disclosed any anticipated problems.  Management believes
that a reasonable "worst case scenario" is that Year 2000
problems would cause delays in deliveries of production
material.  Management has developed contingency plans to
address this worst case scenario.
