                 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


        Note 1 - In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed
                 consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
                 (including normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
                 fairly the consolidated unaudited financial position and
                 results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
                 1996 and 1995.  

        Note 2 - In late May 1995, the company acquired Clark Equipment
                 Company (Clark).  Clark's business is the design,
                 manufacture and sale of compact construction machinery,
                 asphalt paving equipment, axles and transmissions for off-
                 highway equipment, and golf cars and utility vehicles. The
                 total purchase price for Clark was approximately $1.5
                 billion.  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. 
                 The purchase price was allocated to the acquired assets and
                 liabilities based on estimated fair values.  The company has
                 classified as goodwill the costs in excess of the fair value
                 of net assets acquired.  Such excess costs are being
                 amortized on a straight line basis over forty years. 
                 Intangible assets also represent costs allocated to patents
                 and trademarks and other specifically identifiable assets
                 arising from business acquisitions.  These assets are being
                 amortized over their estimated useful lives.

                 The results of Clark's operations have been included in the
                 consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.
                 The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of
                 operations for three months ended March 31, 1995, reflect
                 the acquisition as though it occurred at the beginning of
                 the respective period after adjustments for the impact of
                 interest on acquisition debt, depreciation and amortization
                 of assets, including goodwill, to reflect the preliminary
                 purchase price allocation, and the elimination of Clark's
                 income from discontinued operations related to its
                 disposition of its investment in VME Group N.V. (in millions
                 except per share amounts):

                 For the three months ended March 31                1995 
                   Sales                                         $1,547.5    
                   Net earnings                                      45.5
                   Earnings per share                                $.43

                 It should be noted that the above pro forma amounts were
                 adversely affected by the loss on the sale of the company's
                 domestic paving business, which was a preacquisition
                 requirement to the Clark purchase.  The above pro forma
                 results are not necessarily indicative of what the actual
                 results would have been had the acquisition occurred at the
                 beginning of the respective period. Further, the pro forma
                 results are not intended to be a projection of future
                 results of the combined companies, as it should be noted
                 that the Club Car portion of the Clark acquisition tends to
                 concentrate the majority of its yearly operating profit

                 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                     (continued)


        Note 2 - Continued: 
                 during the first half of the year.

        Note 3 - On January 31, 1996, the company acquired for $95.4 million
                 of cash and the assumption of certain liabilities, the
                 Steelcraft Division of MascoTech, Inc.  Steelcraft
                 manufactures a wide range of cold-rolled and galvanized
                 steel doors for use primarily in nonresidential
                 construction.  The acquisition was accounted for as a
                 purchase with Steelcraft results included since the
                 acquisition date.  Pro forma results assuming Steelcraft had
                 been acquired at the beginning of the year would not have
                 been significantly different than those reported.

        Note 4 - In the first quarter of 1996, the company accrued for the
                 realignment of its foreign operations, principally in
                 Europe.  These accruals were primarily for severance
                 payments and pension benefits associated with work force
                 reductions.  Also in the first quarter, accruals were
                 established for the exit or abandonment of selected European
                 product lines and the closing of an IDP steel foundry. These
                 accruals totalled approximately $30.4 million and were
                 charged to operating income.    

        Note 5 - On March 26, 1996, the company sold most of the assets of
                 the Pulp Machinery Division for approximately $122.3 million
                 to Beloit Corporation, a subsidiary of Harnischfeger
                 Industries, Inc., realizing a pretax gain of $45 million. 
                 In addition in March 1996, the company sold an investment
                 for a gain of $4.8 million.  

        Note 6 - On May 15, 1995, the company sold its domestic paving
                 equipment business to Champion Road Machinery Limited of
                 Canada.  The sale was a preacquisition requirement of the
                 United States Justice Department prior to the Clark
                 acquisition.  The company incurred a $7.1 million pretax
                 loss associated with this sale in the second quarter of
                 1995.

        Note 7 - On September 28, 1995, the company sold 2,878,008 shares of
                 its Common Stock held in treasury to the Clark Equipment
                 Company Leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the LESOP),
                 for a price of $36.25 per share (the closing price of the
                 Common Stock on September 27, 1995 on the New York Stock
                 Exchange) or an aggregate of approximately $104.3 million. 
                 At March 31, 1996, approximately 1.8 million of these shares
                 remain unallocated and the amount paid by the LESOP for
                 those unallocated shares is classified as a reduction of
                 shareowners' equity pending allocation to participants.  The
                 unallocated shares will be allocated to participants in the
                 LESOP (which now includes employees of the company as well
                 as those of Clark) as provided under its terms.

                 1996 and $38.8 million at December 31, 1995.

        Note 9 - The company's investment in the Dresser-Rand partnership at
                 March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 was $126.1 million and 
                 $182.8 million, respectively.  The company owed Dresser-Rand
                 $18.4 million at March 31, 1996 and $88.9 million at
                 December 31, 1995.  During the first quarter of 1996,
                 Dresser-Rand distributed $100 million proportionally to its
                 partners (the company's share was $49 million) which was
                 offset against its advances to the partners.

                 Net sales of Dresser-Rand were $245.4 million for the three
                 months ended March 31, 1996 and $204.4 million for the three
                 months ended March 31, 1995; and gross profit was $44.2
                 million and $41.2 million, respectively.  Dresser-Rand's net
                 income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $1.0

                                INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS        



                 The company's results for the first quarter of 1996, both
        before and after considering noncomparable items, reflected
        improvement over last year's first quarter.  Overall, first quarter
        net earnings for the company totalled $74.5 million, or 70 cents per
        share, as compared to 1995's first quarter earnings of $46.3 million,
        or 44 cents per share.

                 The following noncomparable items affected the company's
        first quarter results:

        (a)      net earnings associated with the May 31, 1995 acquisition of
                 Clark Equipment Company (Clark) totalled approximately $8.5
                 million (or eight cents per share) for the quarter;

        (b)      the net gain on the sale of the Pulp Machinery Division
                 generated net earnings during the first quarter of the year
                 of approximately $28 million (or 26 cents per share);

        (c)      the charge to operating income for the realignment of the
                 company's foreign operations (principally in Europe)
                 totalled approximately $18 million.  These charges are
                 primarily for severance payments and pension enrichment
                 benefits associated with a work force reduction.  This
                 charge reduced net earnings for the quarter by approximately
                 $11 million (or 11 cents per share);

        (d)      charges associated with the exit or abandonment of selected
                 European product lines reduced operating income during the
                 first quarter by approximately $7 million.  The after-tax
                 charge for this item reduced net earnings by approximately
                 $4.5 million (or four cents per share);

        (e)      charges incurred by Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company (IDP) for
                 closing a steel foundry, reduced operating income by
                 approximately $5.4 million.  This item affected the
                 company's net earnings by approximately $2 million (or two
                 cents per share); and

        (f)      a gain on the sale of an investment benefitted the first
                 quarter's results by $4.8 million ($3.0 million after-tax,
                 or three cents per share).

                                INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS        
                                     (continued)


                 If these items were excluded from the first quarter, the
        company's net earnings would have totalled approximately $52 million
        (or 50 cents per share) which would be comparable to last year's
        first quarter net earnings of $46.3 million (or 44 cents per share). 
        Overall, international markets (with the exception of Germany)
        continued to strengthen and improve on a quarter to quarter basis. 
        Domestic markets, principally our construction, architectural
        hardware, professional tool and general industrial products were
        stronger during the first quarter of 1996, when compared to the first
        three months of 1995.

                 A comparison of key income statement categories between the
        quarters, is a follows:

        o   Net sales for the first three months of 1996 totalled $1.6
            billion, representing a 35-percent increase over last year's
            first quarter.  Sales for the quarter, excluding Clark,
            approximated $1.2 billion, reflecting a three-percent improvement
            over the first quarter of 1995.

        o   The ratio of cost of goods sold to sales for the first quarter of
            1996 was comparable to last year's first quarter ratio, both
            including and excluding the noncomparable items (which were
            discussed above).  The following noncomparable items affected
            cost of goods sold during the first quarter of the year:

            -   Clark's operating results;
            -   the gain on the sale of the Pulp Machinery Division;
            -   the charge for the realignment of the company's foreign
                operations;
            -   the cost of closing IDP's steel foundry; and
            -   the charge associated with the exit or abandonment of
                selected European product lines.

            It should be noted that the company did not experience any
            partial liquidations of LIFO (last-in, first-out) inventories
            during the first quarter of either 1996 or 1995.

        o   The ratio of administrative, selling and service engineering
            expenses to sales was 15.3 percent for the first quarter of 1996,
            as compared to 17.1 percent for the first three months of 1995. 
            If the first quarter effect of the Clark acquisition were
            excluded from 1996's results, this ratio is comparable to 1995's
            first quarter performance.

                                INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS        
                                     (continued)


        o   Operating income for the first quarter of the year totalled
            $150.6 million, as compared to $89.2 million for 1995's first
            quarter.  The ratio of operating income to sales in 1996 totalled
            9.4 percent, as compared to 7.5 percent for the first three
            months of last year.  If the non-comparable items (previously
            discussed) were excluded, the 1996 operating income to sales
            ratio reflects a slight improvement over the 1995 first quarter
            ratio.

        o   Other income (expense), net, aggregated $1.4 million of expense
            for the three months ended March 31, 1996, as compared to $6.0
            million of expense in the first quarter of 1995.  This favorable
            change is almost entirely attributed to the $4.8 million gain on
            the sale of an investment during the first quarter of 1996. 
            Reductions in losses from foreign exchange activities in the
            first quarter of 1996 versus the first three months of 1995 were
            offset by lower earnings from partially-owned equity companies
            and an increase in expenses of a miscellaneous nature.  The other
            income/(expense) activity of Clark was immaterial for the
            quarter.

        o   The company's pretax profits for its 49-percent interest in
            Dresser-Rand Company totalled $0.5 million for the first quarter
            of the year, as compared to $0.3 million for the first three
            months of 1995.

        o   The IDP minority interest represents Dresser Industries interest
            in the operating results of IDP.  During the first quarter of
            1996, the minority interest charge totalled $0.1 million (which
            includes the effect of the foundry closing costs) versus $2.2
            million in 1995's first quarter.

        o   Interest expense for the first three months of the year totalled
            $31.3 million, which is an increase of $22.3 million over last
            year's first quarter.  Interest expense associated with the Clark
            acquisition totalled approximately $23 million for the 1996 first
            quarter.

        o   The company's effective tax rate for the first quarter of 1996
            was 37 percent versus last year's first quarter effective tax
            rate of 36 percent.  The company's effective tax rate differs
            from the statutory rate of 35 percent mainly due to state income
            taxes; nondeductible goodwill and some foreign earnings being
            taxed at higher rates.  The effective tax rate for the full year
            of 1995 was 37 percent.

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS        
                                     (continued)


            The consolidated results for the first quarter of the year
        benefitted from the combination of business improvements in a number
        of the company's domestic markets (including auto, construction and
        general industrial) and a continued emphasis on cost-containment
        programs throughout the company.  International business has
        generally reflected increases during the first three months of 1996
        when compared to the comparable period in 1995.  Incoming orders for
        the first quarter of the year totalled $1.8 billion, which represents
        an increase of 28.3 percent over the 1995 first quarter.  New orders
        associated with Clark totalled approximately $375 million.  The Air
        Compressor, Process Systems and Bearings and Components groups were
        the only operations within the company which failed to report
        meaningful increases in first quarter bookings levels when compared
        to the first three months of 1995.  The company's backlog of orders
        at March 31, 1996, believed by it to be firm, was $1.7 billion, which
        reflects an increase of approximately $100 million over the December
        31, 1995 balance.  The company estimates that approximately 90
        percent of the backlog will be shipped during the next twelve months.


        Liquidity and Capital Resources

            The company's financial position at March 31, 1996 was comparable
        to its position at December 31, 1995.  In the first three months of
        1996, working capital decreased by $28 million to $988 million at
        March 31, 1996 from the December 31, 1995 balance of $1,016 million. 
        The current ratio at March 31, 1996 was 1.7 to 1, down from the 1.8
        to 1 ratio at December 31, 1995.

            The company's cash and cash equivalents decreased by $52.1
        million during the first three months of 1996 to $85.2 million from
        $137.3 million at December 31, 1995.  In evaluating the net change in
        cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operating, investing and
        financing activities, and the effect of exchange rate changes should
        be considered.  Cash flows from operating activities provided $5.4
        million, investing activities used $34.6 million and financing
        activities used $27.4 million.  Exchange rate changes during the
        first three months of 1996 increased cash and cash equivalents by
        $4.5 million.

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS        
                                     (continued)


            Receivables totalled $1.1 billion at March 31, 1996, which
        represents a $17.5 million increase from the amount reported at
        December 31, 1995.  The increase was due to the Steelcraft
        acquisition and the effect of strong first quarter sales offset by
        the effect of translation and dispositions. 

            Inventories totalled $987.0 million at March 31, 1996,
        approximately $74.4 million higher than the December 31, 1995 level. 
        The activity during the first quarter of 1996 represents the normal
        first quarter inventory build, the net effect of dispositions and
        acquisitions, and a decrease due to exchange rates applicable to the
        international inventories.

            Intangible assets increased approximately $45 million. This net
        increase came from the first quarter acquisition of Steelcraft offset
        by first quarter amortization.

            Long-term debt, including current maturities, at the end of the
        first three months of the year, totalled $1.4 billion.

            The company's March 31, 1996 debt-to-total capital ratio was 44
        percent, which reflects a minor improvement from the 45 percent ratio
        at December 31, 1995.  

            During the first three months of 1996, foreign currency
        translation adjustments resulted in a net decrease of approximately
        $15.8 million in shareowners' equity, caused by the strengthening of
        the U.S. dollar against other currencies.  Currency changes in
        Belgium, France, Germany, Japan, South Africa and Switzerland,
        accounted for over 95 percent of this change.  The translation of
        accounts receivable and inventories were the principal balance sheet
        items affected by the currency fluctuations since year end.


        Environmental Matters  

            Environmental matters at March 31, 1996 remain substantially
        unchanged from December 31, 1995.  The company has been identified as
        a potentially responsible party in environmental proceedings brought
        under both the federal Superfund law and state remediation laws, 











                                          13<PAGE>


                                INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                              OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS        
                                     (continued)


        involving 39 sites within the United States.  For all sites, there
        are other potentially responsible parties and in most instances, the
        company's involvement is minimal.  Although there is a possibility
        that a responsible party might have to bear more than its
        proportional share of site clean-up costs if other responsible
        parties fail to make contributions, the company has not yet had, and
        to date there is no indication that it will have, to bear more than
        its proportional share of clean-up costs at any site.  The company
        also is engaged in site investigations and remedial activities to
        address environmental cleanup from past operations at current and
        former manufacturing facilities.  Additionally, Clark is a defendant
        in a lawsuit filed by the United States Environmental Protection
        Agency that seeks civil penalties for alleged violations of the Clean
        Water Act, arising out of the discharge of certain metal finishing
        wastewaters generated at a current manufacturing facility.  Although
        uncertainties regarding environmental technology, state and federal
        regulations, insurance coverage and individual site information make
        estimating the liability difficult, management believes that the
        total liability for the cost of environmental remediation will not
        have a material effect on the financial condition, the results of
        operations, liquidity or cash flows of the company.  It should be
        noted that when the company estimates its liability for environmental
        matters, such estimates are based on current technologies and the
        company does not discount its liability or assume any insurance
        recoveries. 


        Acquisitions

            On January 31, 1996, the company acquired the Steelcraft Division
        of MascoTech, Inc., which manufactures a wide range of cold-rolled
        and galvanized steel doors for use primarily in nonresidential
        construction.  The acquisition was paid for in cash and the
        assumption of certain liabilities.  Steelcraft is a division of the
        Architectural Hardware Group.  Steelcraft is the leader in
        manufacturing steel doors with honeycomb cores. 

            On May 25, 1995, CEC Acquisition Corp. (CEC), a wholly-owned
        subsidiary of the company, acquired 16,553,617 shares of Clark,
        which, together with shares already owned by the company, represented
        approximately 98.4 percent of the outstanding shares, for a cash
        price of $86 per share pursuant to an April 12, 1995 amended tender
        offer.  Clark's business is the design, manufacture and sale of

        compact construction  machinery, asphalt paving equipment, axles and
        transmissions for off-highway equipment, and golf cars and utility
        vehicles.  On May 31, 1995, the company completed the merger of CEC
        with Clark.  Upon consummation of the merger, Clark became a wholly-
        owned subsidiary of the company and the shareholders of Clark who did
        not tender their shares became entitled to receive $86 per share. 
        The total purchase price for Clark was approximately $1.5 billion
        after taking into account amounts paid in respect of outstanding
        stock options and certain transactions.  Included among the assets
        acquired by the company (indirectly through the acquisition of the
        shares of Clark) are the Melroe Company, Blaw-Knox Construction
        Equipment Company, Clark-Hurth Components and Club Car, Inc.  Melroe
        products consist of skid steer loaders, compact excavators and a
        limited line of agricultural equipment.  Blaw-Knox is one of the
        leading producers of asphalt paving equipment in the world.  The
        products of the Clark-Hurth business consist of axles and
        transmissions for off-highway equipment.  Club Car produces golf cars
        and light utility vehicles.  The Clark acquisition has been accounted
        for as a purchase and Clark's assets have been consolidated into the
        financial statements of the company.


        Contingencies

            Clark sold Clark Material Handling Company (CMHC), its forklift
        truck business, to Terex Corporation (Terex) in 1992.  As part of the
        sale Terex and CMHC assumed substantially all of Clark's obligations
        for existing and future product liability claims involving CMHC
        products.  In the event that Terex and CMHC fail to perform or are
        unable to discharge the assumed obligations, Clark would be required
        to discharge such obligations.  While the aggregate losses associated
        with these obligations could be significant, the company does not
        believe they would materially affect the financial condition, the
        results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the company.

        Review of Business Segments

            The Standard Machinery Segment reported sales of $688.5 million
        for the first quarter of 1996, an increase of 73 percent over 1995's
        first-quarter level of $398.8 million.  This segment now includes all
        the operations of Clark, except for the Clark-Hurth unit.  Excluding
        the sales from the Clark units, the first-quarter sales for this
        segment totalled $411.0 million.  Operating income for the quarter
        was $52.5 million, a 49-percent improvement over the $35.3 million
        reported for the three months ended March 31, 1995.  Excluding the
        Clark operations, first-quarter operating income for the segment was
        $12.7 million, and it included approximately $16 million of
        noncomparable charges due to actions taken by the company during the
        first quarter of the year, previously discussed.  Sales from the
        traditional units in the Construction and Mining Group reported
        modest first quarter improvements when compared to last year's first
        quarter.  However, their operating income and margin ratios declined
        slightly from 1995's first quarter level's before considering the
        effects of noncomparable items.  Air Compressor Group's sales for the
        first quarter of 1996 are up slightly from the amount reported for
        the first three months of 1995 but operating income was below the
        prior year's level due to lower sales of portable compressors, the
        effect of poor first quarter weather conditions in the U.S. and
        disappointing construction markets in Germany.

            Engineered Equipment Segment's sales totalled $340.2 million, 46
        percent above last year's first-quarter total of $232.4 million. 
        This segment's activities now include the operating results of the
        Clark-Hurth unit.  Excluding the sales of Clark-Hurth, this segment's
        first-quarter sales were $247.5 million, representing a $15.1 million
        improvement over 1995's first-quarter total.  Operating income for
        the quarter was $51.5 million, and it included a net gain of
        approximately $45 million from the sale of the company's Pulp
        Machinery Division, a charge of approximately $5.4 million for the
        closure of an IDP steel foundry and $4.0 million from the operating
        results of the Clark-Hurth unit.  Excluding these items from the
        results for the first three months of 1996, operating income for the
        quarter was $7.8 million versus $7.6 million for 1995's first
        quarter.  IDP's first quarter sales reflect a modest increase over
        1995's first quarter.  Operating income, before considering the
        effect of the foundry closing, was essentially level with last year's
        first quarter.

                                     (continued)


            Pulp Machinery Division sales approximated $20 million in both
        quarters and this unit operated essentially at the break even level.

            The Bearings, Locks and Tools Segment reported first quarter
        sales of $576.2 million, four percent higher than last year's first-
        quarter level of $554.4 million.  Operating income totalled $57.4
        million for the first quarter of 1996 and included noncomparable
        charges of approximately $9 million, which were recorded during the
        first three months of 1996.  In addition, the segment's results for
        the first quarter of 1996 reflect a slight benefit from the two month
        results from the January 31, 1996 acquisition of the Steelcraft
        Division, but the impact of the General Motors strike more than
        offset the Steelcraft earnings.  Excluding these events, operating
        income for the quarter would have been approximately $69.3 million
        versus $55.2 million for the first three months of 1995.

            The Bearings and Components Group's sales for the first quarter
        of 1996 were essentially level with 1995's first quarter.  The
        group's operating income was also equal to last year's first quarter,
        before considering the effect of noncomparable items in 1996.

            Architectural Hardware Group's sales for the first three months
        of the year are approximately 30 percent higher than last year's
        first quarter with approximately one-half of the increase being
        attributed to the January 31, 1996 Steelcraft acquisition.  The
        group's operating income and operating income margins improved over
        1995's first quarter figures.

            The Production Equipment Group's sales for the first quarter of
        1996 were down slightly from 1995's level.  However, operating
        income, before the effect of noncomparable items, improved over
        1995's first quarter.

        Note 1 -  Shares issuable under outstanding stock plans, applying the
                  "Treasury Stock" method, have been excluded from the
                  computation of primary earnings per share since such shares
                  were less than 1% of common shares outstanding.

             2 -  Net earnings per share of common stock computed on a fully
                  diluted basis are based on the average number of common
                  shares outstanding during each year after adjustment for
                  individual securities which may be dilutive.  Securities
                  entering into consideration in making this calculation are
                  common shares issuable under employee stock plans. 
                  Employee stock options outstanding are included in the
