           NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
    condensed consolidated financial statements contain all
    adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company's financial
    position as of March 31, 1995 and the results of operations and
    cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994. 
    All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The
    results of operations for the three month period ended March 31,
    1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
    expected for the entire year of 1995.

    The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth
    in Note 1 to the Company's financial statements in the 1994
    Annual Report on Form 10-K which is incorporated by reference.


2.  During December 1994, which was subsequent to the 1994 year-end
    of the Company's subsidiary Goulds Pumps Europe, B.V. (GPE), all
    of the outstanding common stock of Pumpenfabrik Ernst Vogel AG
    (Vogel) was acquired for $17.8 million.  Although this
    acquisition occurred subsequent to GPE's year-end, the
    investment in Vogel was recorded as a line item on the
    consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1994 since the
    borrowing for the acquisition had been completed, together with
    the corresponding advance to the Company's subsidiary.  At March
    31, 1995, the detailed balance sheet of Vogel is consolidated
    in the financial statements under the purchase accounting
    method.  For reporting purposes, Vogel has an October 31 year-
    end, like that of its direct parent, GPE.

    The excess of the allocated purchase price over the fair value
    of net tangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill in the
    amount of $16.9 million and is being amortized over a 30-year
    period.  Additionally, Vogel had $8.8 million of goodwill on
    their balance sheet prior to acquisition by Goulds.  In the
    accompanying consolidated financial statements, the allocation
    of the purchase price to the acquired assets and liabilities of
    Vogel is preliminary and may change as various studies,
    evaluations, and appraisals are completed.      

    The Company's pro forma unaudited results of operations for the
    quarter ended March 31, 1994, assuming acquisition of Vogel had
    occurred as of the beginning of the year, would have increased
    net sales by approximately $16.6 million and decreased net
    earnings per share by approximately $.08.  Adjustments made in
    arriving at preliminary pro forma unaudited results of
    operations included additional interest expense of $.2 million
    related to the $17.8 million of acquisition debt at 4.5% for the
    quarter, related income tax adjustments and amortization of
    goodwill of $.1 million.  The unaudited pro forma results of
    operations are not necessarily indicative of results that would

    have been attained had the  Vogel  business been acquired at the
    beginning of 1994, nor are they consistent with management's
    expectation of future performance.


3.  In the fourth quarter of 1994, the Company executed a
    restructuring plan to align its continuing global operations
    with management's long-term objectives.  As a result, a
    restructuring charge of $3.5 million pre-tax and a related
    liability for such costs were recorded in the Company's
    consolidated financial statements in the fourth quarter.  The
    restructuring plan included the downsizing of the Company's
    California, Netherlands, and Mexican based operations, and the
    consolidation of sales offices, PRO Service Centers, and other
    Company facilities.  As a result, the related cost to exit owned
    and leased facilities was $1.1 million.  The restructuring
    included the termination of 149 employees from manufacturing,
    selling, and general and administrative departments.  The
    related termination benefits included in the restructuring
    charge were $2.4 million.

    The balance in restructuring reserve at March 31, 1995 is $2.4
    million.  The following charges against the restructuring
    reserve were recorded in the first quarter of 1995 relating to
    the following components:  costs to exit owned and leased
    facilities were $.6 million; costs of termination benefits were
    $.2 million.  The Company believes the reserve is adequate to
    complete the restructuring plan by the end of 1995.  The
    restructuring plan is anticipated to result in savings in the
    range of $2.2 million pre-tax in 1995 with annual savings
    estimated to be $3.3 million pre-tax in 1996 and beyond.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations


Overview

         The Company's first quarter 1995 results reflected the highest
quarterly orders and sales levels in its history with increases of
21.4% and 17.1% respectively over the first quarter of 1994. 
Earnings per share jumped 44.4% over first quarter 1994 results.

         First quarter 1995 net sales were a record $160.1 million, 
compared with $136.6 million for the first quarter of 1994. 
Without the two-month effect of the Company's latest acquisition,
Vogel, Austria's leading pump manufacturer, sales would have
increased 8.8% and net earnings would have increased 47.5% for the
same period.  First quarter orders in 1995 were $164.9 million
compared with 1994 first quarter orders of $135.8 million.  Without
the two months of Vogel's orders included in the first quarter of
1995, orders would have increased 13.0% compared to the first three
months of 1994.  Backlog at March 31, 1995 was a record $118.0
million, 22.9% higher than backlog of $96.0 million at March 31,
1994.

         In other areas of significance, the Board of Directors of the
Company elected Thomas C. McDermott as Chairman of the Board on May
3, 1995, effective immediately.  McDermott, 58, who is also
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, succeeds
Robert L. Tarnow who is retiring as Chairman.

         The Company is currently considering the possibility of
relocating its production in Seneca Falls, New York, to achieve
lower manufacturing costs.  The Company anticipates making a
decision regarding this matter by the end of 1995.

         The Company believes its first quarter 1995 improvements
reflect strong economic climate in its core markets as well as a
dedicated focus on its strategic imperatives.  The Company
anticipates that net earnings in each of the remaining quarters of
1995 will be stronger than that of the year before.


Results of Operations

         The increase in sales of $23.4 million in the first quarter
1995 compared with the first quarter of 1994 is composed of a $6.9
million or a 9.1% increase in Industrial Products sector sales and
a $16.5 million or 27.1% increase in Water Technologies sector
sales.  Without Vogel sales, the Industrial Products sales increase
would have been 3.6% over 1994.  This increase included the strong
shipments performance of Goulds Pumps Canada reflecting the
resurgence of the Canadian economy and growth in the pulp and paper
core  market.   If  Vogel's   results  were  excluded,  the Water 
<F50>
Goulds Pumps, Incorporated       Form 10-Q
Part I, Item 2


Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)


Technologies sales increase would have been 15.1% compared with
1994's first quarter.  WTG-Europe (WTG-E) achieved sales growth of
12.3% in lira and 17.0% on a translated basis due to the stronger
lira during this timeframe.

         Gross margin as a percentage of sales improved to 28.4% for
the first quarter of 1995 compared to 27.7% for the first quarter
of 1994.  The Industrial Products sector gross profit percentage
increased to 28.7% in 1995 from  27.3% for the first quarter of
1994.  Without Vogel, the Industrial Products sector gross profit
percentage would have been 29.0% for the first quarter of 1995. 
Gross margin percentage increases were achieved at the Engineered
Products Division (EPD) and the Vertical Products Division (VPD). 
For the first quarter of 1995, excluding Vogel, the Water
Technologies sector's gross profit percentage improved to 28.8%
from 28.2% in the first quarter of 1994.  Gross margin percentage
increases at WTG-America (WTG-A), due to a price increase and lower
manufacturing costs, and improvements at WTG-E were offset, in
part, by lower margin levels at Texas Turbine.

         At WTG-E, recent raw material price increases, particularly in
stainless steel, as well as the recent decline in the value of the
Italian lira against other European currencies, most notably the
German mark, are expected to negatively impact reported gross
margins levels for the remainder of 1995.  Sales price increases
are being implemented where possible and appropriate to offset the
increased cost.

         As a percentage to sales, SG&A expenses were 20.7% for the
first three months of 1995 compared with 20.2% for the same period
a year ago, reflecting increases at WTG-E due to an expanded
European sales presence, expenses associated with new Corporate
headquarters, and the impact of Vogel's SG&A expenses, which are
higher on a percentage of sales basis and not included in 1994
results.

         Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased  9.2%
compared with the first quarter of 1994.  The higher level of R&D
expenses in the first quarter of 1994 relates primarily to
Environamics which began shipping product in late 1994.  In 1995,
the Company anticipates that it will continue to invest in new
product development, as well as in enhancements to existing
products, but at a slightly lower percentage of sales than in 1994
due to the impact of Environamics.

         Earnings from affiliates decreased $.5 million for the first
quarter of 1995 compared to the same period in 1994.  This decrease
is primarily due to the shift in control of Oil Dynamics, Inc.
(ODI), a formerly 50%-owned joint venture, to Franklin Electric Co.
<F50>
Goulds Pumps, Incorporated       Form 10-Q
Part I, Item 2


Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)


         
in late 1994.  In 1995, the Company's investment in ODI, currently
at 3%, is recorded under the "cost method" of accounting and
therefore ODI's results are not reflected in the Company's
financial statements.

         Interest expense increased $.7 million in the first three
months of 1995 compared with the first quarter 1994.  This increase
was accounted for by the bank and capital lease debt of Vogel
assumed in connection with the acquisition.  Interest income
increased $.2 million period over the same period due to Vogel's
impact on reported results.

         Other expense decreased $.8 million compared with the first
quarter of 1994.  This decrease is due to several factors which
include a reduction in losses on exchange transactions and on
disposal of fixed assets.

         The provision for income taxes represents 37.1% and 41.1% of
earnings before income taxes in the first quarter of 1995 and 1994,
respectively.  The higher tax rate in 1994 was largely due to the
negative tax impact associated with adjustments for Mexican
accounting irregularities recorded in the first quarter of 1994.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         As reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows, $5.6 million of cash generated by net financing activities
and $4.7 millon of cash generated from operating activities
combined with a $1.6 million negative translation effect were
utilized to fund $8.6 million of net investing activities while
increasing cash and cash equivalents by $.1 million.

         Significant items impacting cash flow from operating
activities (net of the effects of Vogel's opening balance sheet) in
1995 include an $11.8 million increase in receivables-net due to
the high level of first quarter shipments, and a $1.1 million
increase in inventories primarily at WTG-E to support its expanded
European sales presence.

         In the first three months of 1995, capital additions were $7.2
million.  Significant projects included equipment and building
additions, primarily at WTG-E.  The Company expects to spend
approximately $30 - $35 million in total capital expenditures for
the year.

         The Company expects that debt levels by the end of 1995 will
be higher than those at December 31, 1994, due to the bank and
capital lease debt assumed in connection with the acquisition of
<F50>
Goulds Pumps, Incorporated       Form 10-Q
Part I, Item 2


Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)


Vogel.  The Company believes cash from operations and available
credit facilities are sufficient to meet its liquidity needs during
1995.

         Cumulative translation adjustments on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 1995 were $13.1 million
compared to $9.2 million at December 31, 1994, reflecting the
weakening of the Italian lira and the Mexican peso against the U.S.
dollar experienced since the fourth quarter of 1994.  Future
currency devaluations could occur at some of the Company's
international locations, including Venezuela.  The Company is
currently evaluating methods to minimize the impact of devaluations
on operations and reported operating results.


Restructuring Charges

         In the fourth quarter of 1994, the Company executed a
restructuring plan to align its continuing global operations with
management's long-term objectives.  As a result, a restructuring
charge of $3.5 million pre-tax and a related liability for such
costs were recorded in the Company's consolidated financial
statements in the fourth quarter.  The restructuring plan included
the downsizing of the Company's California, Netherlands, and
Mexican based operations, and the consolidation of sales offices,
PRO Service centers, and other Company facilities.  As a result,
the related cost to exit owned and leased facilities was $1.1
million.  The restructuring included the termination of 149
employees from manufacturing, selling, and general and
administrative departments.  The related termination benefits
included in the restructuring charge were $2.4 million.

         The balance in the restructuring reserve at March 31, 1995 is
$2.4 million.  The following charges against the restructuring
reserve were recorded in the first quarter of 1995 relating to the
following components:  costs to exit owned and leased facilities
were $.6 million; costs of termination benefits were $.2 million. 
The Company believes the reserve is adequate to complete the
restructuring plan by the end of 1995.  The restructuring plan is
anticipated to result in savings in the range of $2.2 million pre-
tax in 1995 with annual savings estimated to be $3.3 million pre-
tax in 1996 and beyond.


Environmental Matters

         In 1994, a charge of $3.5 million pre-tax was recorded for
legal and other fees related to the Company's vigorous defense of
the lawsuits commenced in 1994 arising from the sales of
submersible pumps with brass or bronze components.  (See "Legal
<F50>
Goulds Pumps, Incorporated       Form 10-Q
Part I, Item 2


Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)


Proceedings", below.)  This charge includes the establishment of a
$2.2 million reserve to cover revised estimates of future legal
costs to pursue that defense.  At March 31, 1995, the remaining
reserve was $1.7 million.  Although the Company believes the
reserve is adequate based on current estimates, it is possible that
the range of such costs and related expenses could exceed the
reserve by as much as $1.0 million.  There has not been, nor does
the Company currently anticipate, any material impact on sales or
inventories resulting from these lawsuits.

         As disclosed in previous SEC filings, the Company recorded a
$2.0 million provision in the fourth quarter of 1991 for estimated
environmental costs to monitor and remediate an inactive Company
landfill site in Seneca Falls, New York.  At March 31, 1995, the
remaining reserve was $1.8 million.  The remediation plan has been
approved by the New York State DEC and is expected to be completed
in 1995 or early 1996.  The Company does not currently expect any
additional material expenses in future years associated with this
site.

         Apart from issues discussed above for which reserves have been
established in respect of environmental matters, the Company is not
currently aware of other environmental matters which would have any
material impact on recurring costs, capital expenditures, or
mandated expenditures.

Orders and Backlog

         For the first quarter of 1995, orders were a record $164.9
million, a 21.4% increase compared with orders for the first
quarter of 1994 of $135.8 million.  Without Vogel, total first
quarter 1995 orders were $153.4 million or a 13.0% increase over
first quarter 1994 orders levels.  The increase in orders,
excluding Vogel,  is composed of a $7.9  million or 13.0% increase
in Water Technologies orders while Industrial Products orders
increased $9.8 million or 13.1% year over year.  Industrial repair
orders for the first quarter of 1995 reflected a 12.8% increase
over first quarter 1994 levels.  For the first quarter of 1995, all
major Industrial sector divisions and Goulds Pumps Canada reported
strong orders increases reflecting expansion and growth in core
markets.  The Water Technologies sector orders level increases have
resulted from the introduction of new products with related market
share gains and WTG-E European sales expansion.

         Backlog increased from $96.0 million at March 31, 1994 to a
record $118.0 million at March 31, 1995.  Industrial Products
backlog increased $14.9 million to a total backlog of $105.8 
million at the end of the first quarter while the Water
Technologies backlog increased $7.1 million from the March 31, 1994
level to a total backlog of $12.2 million.
