                     INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY
        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, 2000, and 1999.

Note 2 - On February 2, 2000, the company completed the purchase
         of Dresser-Rand Company (D-R) by acquiring the joint
         venture partner's 51% share for a net purchase price of
         approximately $536 million in cash. As previously announced,
         the company intends to divest of D-R as soon as possible.

         On February 7, 2000, the company acquired for
         approximately $19 million in cash the stock of Sambron
         S.A. (Sambron).  Sambron, based in France, manufactures
         and distributes a range of telescopic material handlers.

         On February 28, 2000, the company acquired for
         approximately $20 million in cash a 70% interest in
         Zexel Cold Systems (Zexel).  Zexel, based in Japan,
         manufactures bus air-conditioning equipment and
         refrigeration units for small trucks.

Note 3 - On February 4, 2000, the company sold Corona Clipper for
         approximately $43 million.  Corona Clipper manufactures
         hand tools for pruning and harvesting.  Corona Clipper
         was acquired March 1999 with the Harrow Industries Inc.
         acquisition.  No gain on this transaction was recorded
         as proceeds in excess of the net assets sold reduced
         goodwill.

         On February 9, 2000, the company agreed to sell
         Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company (IDP) to Flowserve
         Corporation for $775 million in cash.  The transaction
         is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to
         close during the second quarter of 2000.

         On February 25, 2000, the company sold its interests in
         three joint ventures related to the manufacture of full
         steering-column assemblies to its partner, NSK Limited
         and affiliates, for approximately $37 million in cash.

Note 4 - Net assets of IDP and D-R are shown as "Assets held for
         sale" on the consolidated balance sheet and their results
         have been included as "Discontinued operations (net of
         tax)" on the consolidated income statement.  The 1999
         first quarter has been restated.

Note 5 - Inventories of domestic manufactured standard products
         are valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and
         all other inventories are valued using the first-in,
         first-out (FIFO) method.  The composition of inventories
         for the balance sheets presented were as follows (in
         millions):

                                        March 31,     December 31,
                                             2000             1999

Note 6 -Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average
        number of common shares outstanding of 162.0  million
        and 163.6 million for the first three months of 2000 and
        1999, respectively.  Diluted earnings per share is based
        on the weighted average number of common shares
        outstanding, as well as potentially dilutive common
        shares, which in the company's case comprise shares issuable
        under stock benefit plans (1.3 million and 1.8 million for
        the first three months of 2000 and 1999, respectively).

Note 7 -The components of comprehensive income are as follows
        (in millions):

        Comprehensive income                $  118.2    $   89.9

Note 8 -During the first quarter of 2000, the company realigned
        its business to reflect its change to a market-focused
        organization.  A summary of operations by reportable
        segment is as follows:

                           For the three months ended March 31,

                      INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY
                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                     OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                       RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The company's results for the first quarter of the year
established a new record.  Sales approximated $2.0 billion,
operating income was $269.3 million and earnings from continuing
operations reached $139.6 million ($0.85 diluted earnings per
share).  For the first quarter of 1999, the company reported
sales of $1.9 billion, operating income of $238.6 million and
earnings from continuing operations of $114.0 million ($0.69
diluted earnings per share).

A comparison of key income statement amounts between the
quarters, is as follows:

o    Net sales for the first three months of 2000 approximated
     $2.0 billion, an increase of 4.5% over last year's first
     quarter.

o    The ratio of cost of goods sold to sales for the first
     quarter of 2000 improved to 72.7% compared to the 1999 first
     quarter ratio of 73.5%.  The improvement is attributable to
     the benefits of cost reduction, efficiency and strategic
     sourcing programs.

o    The ratio of administrative, selling and service engineering
     expenses to sales was 13.6% for the first three months of
     2000, as compared to 13.9% for the first quarter of 1999.
     The quarterly improvement is attributed to continued success
     of the cost-containment programs.

o    Operating income for the first quarter of 2000 totalled
     $269.3 million, an increase of $30.7 million (or 12.9%) over
     the $238.6 million reported for last year's first quarter.
     The ratio of operating income to sales in 2000 was 13.6%, as
     compared to 12.6% for the first three months of the prior
     year.

o    Other income (expense), net, aggregated $2.9 million of
     income for the three months ended March 31, 2000, as
     compared to $3.1 million of expense in the first quarter of
     1999.  This favorable change is attributed to the gain on
     the sale of three joint ventures and higher earnings from
     partially-owned affiliates in the first quarter of 2000.

o    Minority interest increased from the first quarter of 1999 as
     a result of higher earnings from consolidated jointly-owned
     entities in which the company has a majority ownership.
     Charges associated with the company's equity-linked
     securities were comparable.

o    Interest expense for the first quarter of 2000 was $48.2
     million, which was $4.3 million below last year's first
     quarter due to lower average debt balances compared to 1999.
     Additional interest expense from the debt required to
     purchase IDP and D-R was classified as a component of
     discontinued operations and was not included in interest
     expense.

o    The company's effective tax rate for the first quarter of
     both years was 35.5%.

o    Discontinued operations (net of tax) for 2000 resulted in a
     loss of $3.6 million compared with income of $7.1 million in
     1999.  Included in the 2000 results were all of IDP results
     and 100% of D-R since February 2, 2000 and interest expense
     from the debt required to purchase IDP and D-R. The first
     quarter of 1999 includes 51% of IDP's earnings and 49% of D-R.

The consolidated results for the first quarter of the year
benefited from the combination of business improvements in a
number of the company's domestic and foreign markets and a
continued emphasis on the company's productivity-improvement
programs.  Incoming orders for the first quarter of the year
totalled $2.1 billion, which is higher than last year's first
quarter total of $2.0 billion.  The company's backlog of orders
at March 31, 2000, believed by it to be firm, was $1.1 billion,
which was approximately 15% higher than the backlog at December
31, 1999.  The company estimates that approximately 90% of the
backlog will be shipped during the next twelve months.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The company's working capital increased by $78.2 million to
$1,207.6 million at March 31, 2000, from the December 31, 1999
balance of $1,129.4 million.  The current ratio was 1.5 and 1.6 at
the end of the first quarter and at the end of 1999, respectively.
The company's debt-to-total capital ratio at March 31, 2000 was 45%,
compared with 42% reported at December 31, 1999.  This increase is
attributable to the February 2, 2000 purchase of the remaining 51%
of D-R.

The company's cash and cash equivalents totalled $86.0
million at March 31, 2000 down significantly from the $222.9
million at December 31, 1999, primarily due to the D-R
transaction.  Cash flows from operating activities provided $41.1
million, investing activities used $522.4 million and financing
activities provided $326.5 million.

Receivables totalled $1.2 billion at March 31, 2000, which
represents a $190.8 million increase over the amount reported at
December 31, 1999.  The increase was attributed to the timing of
strong first quarter sales and acquisition activity.

Inventories totalled $835.0 million at March 31, 2000, which
represents an increase of $92.9 million from the year-end balance
of $742.1 million. This change represents the building of
inventory to fulfill orders in the second and third quarters, and
acquisition activity.

Assets held for sale were $1,281.1 million at March 31,
2000, an increase of $481.4 million.  This account increased by
approximately $536 million due to the February 2, 2000 purchase
of the remainder of D-R, and decreased due to the sale of Corona
Clipper.

Intangible assets decreased by approximately $11.7 million
during the first three months of 2000.  Amortization expense for
the quarter was $27.9 million.  The remaining change was
attributable to acquisitions and foreign currency translation.

Loans payable were $910.7 million in the first quarter of
2000 compared to $495.5 million in 1999.  The increased borrowing
was attributed mainly to the funding of the acquisition of the
remaining ownership of D-R on February 2, 2000.

During the first three months of 2000, foreign currency
translation adjustments resulted in a net decrease of $17.8
million in shareowners' equity, caused by the strengthening of
the U.S. dollar against European currencies.

Environmental Matters

The company is a party to environmental lawsuits and claims,
and has received notices of potential violations of environmental
laws and regulations from the Environmental Protection Agency and
similar state authorities.  It is identified as a potentially
responsible party (PRP) for cleanup costs associated with off-
site waste disposal at approximately 30 federal Superfund and
state remediation sites, excluding sites as to which the
company's records disclose no involvement or as to which the
company's liability has been fully determined.  For all sites,
there are other PRPs and in most instances, the company's site
involvement is minimal.  In estimating its liability, the company
has not assumed that it will bear the entire cost of remediation
of any site to the exclusion of other PRPs who may be jointly and
severally liable.  The ability of other PRPs to participate has
been taken into account, based generally on the parties'
financial condition and probable contributions on a per site
basis.  Additional lawsuits and claims involving environmental
matters are likely to arise from time to time in the future.

Although uncertainties regarding environmental technology,
state and federal laws and regulations and individual site
information make estimating the liability difficult, management
believes that the total liability for the cost of remediation and
environmental lawsuits and claims will not have a material effect
on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or
cash flows of the company for any year.  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 February 7, 2000, the company acquired for approximately
$19 million in cash the stock of Sambron S.A. (Sambron).
Sambron, based in France, manufactures and distributes a range of
telescopic material handlers that extend the Bobcatr and
Ingersoll-Randr compact equipment lines in Europe.  Sambron's
results have been reported as part of the Infrastructure
Development Sector since acquisition.

On February 28, 2000 the company acquired for approximately
$20 million in cash a 70% interest in Zexel Cold Systems, (Zexel).
Zexel, based in Japan, manufactures bus air-conditioning equipment
and refrigeration units for small trucks. Zexel's results have been
reported as part of the Climate Control Sector since acquisition.

Dispositions

In December 1999, the company sold substantially all of net assets
of the Automation Division.

On February 4, 2000 the company sold Corona Clipper for
approximately $43 million.  Corona Clipper is a manufacturer of
hand tools for pruning and harvesting.  Corona Clipper was
acquired March 1999 with the Harrow Industries, Inc. acquisition.

On February 25, 2000 the company sold its interest in three joint
ventures related to the manufacture of full steering-column
assemblies to its partner, NSK Limited and affiliates, for
approximately $37 million in cash and recorded the gain in "other
income (expense), net".  The transaction involved the sale of the
company's 50% interest in NASTECH, based in Bennington, Vermont;
the company's 50% interest in NASTECH Europe Ltd., based in
Coventry, England; and its 25% interest in Siam NASTECH Company
Ltd., based in Bangkok, Thailand.

Discontinued Operations

On August 12, 1999, the company announced its intention to
dispose of its interest in D-R, a joint venture involved in the
reciprocating compressor and turbo machinery business, and IDP, a
joint venture involved in the engineered pump business.  On
October 5, 1999, the joint venture partner, as permitted under
the joint venture agreements, elected to sell its share of the
joint ventures to the company.  Effective December 31, 1999, the
company completed the purchase of IDP by acquiring the joint
venture partner's 49% share for a net purchase price of $377.0
million.  A note for the full purchase price was issued to the
joint venture partner and was redeemed on January 14, 2000. The
company subsequently financed this obligation using cash and cash
equivalents, and short-term debt.  On February 2, 2000, the
company completed the purchase of D-R by acquiring the joint
venture partner's 51% share for a net purchase price of
approximately $536 million in cash.  On February 9, 2000, the
company agreed to sell its IDP unit to Flowserve Corporation
for $775 million in cash.  This transaction is subject to
regulatory approval and is expected to close during the second
quarter of 2000.  The sale of D-R is anticipated to occur in the
third quarter of 2000.  The net assets of IDP and D-R have been
reported as assets held for sale in the accompanying financial
statements, and prior periods have been restated to reflect these
businesses as discontinued operations. Historically, IDP had been
reported as part of the former Engineered Products Segment, while
D-R had been reported in other income (expense), net.

New Accounting Standard

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities."  This Statement will become effective beginning
January 1, 2001.  SFAS No. 133 requires all derivatives to be
recognized as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and
measured at fair value.  Changes in the fair value of derivatives
will be recognized in earnings or other comprehensive income,
depending on the designated purpose of the derivative.  The
company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the
standard and will comply as required.

First-quarter Business Segment Review

During the first quarter, the company realigned its businesses
to reflect its change to a market-focused organization.

The Climate Control Sector includes Thermo King transport
temperature control equipment.  The sector's first quarter
revenues totaled $320.4 million, an increase of 10% compared to
last year, reflecting improved results for the North American
trailer and the worldwide container businesses.  Operating
earnings increased by 2% to $38.7 million.  Operating margins
declined primarily because of unfavorable currency movements.

The Industrial Productivity Sector is composed of a group of
businesses focused on providing solutions for customers to
enhance industrial efficiency.  First-quarter revenues on a
comparable basis increased approximately 1%.  Revenues of $741.4
million declined slightly, compared to last year's revenues of
$761.7 million. Operating earnings increased by 22% to $88.6
million.  All businesses in the sector reported improved
operating margins.  The Industrial Productivity Sector consists
of three segments:

        O    Air Solutions, which provides equipment and services
             for compressed air systems, had revenues in the first
             quarter of $188.9 million, an improvement of 9% compared
             to 1999.  Earnings improved by 18% to $19.8 million,
             reflecting ongoing cost-reduction and efficiency programs.

        O    Bearings and Components provides motion control
             technologies to the automotive and industrial markets.
             Revenues for the quarter declined by 7% to $304.8 million,
             as lower revenues for industrial bearings and automotive
             components, related to the loss of the camshaft business in
             1999, more than offset gains made in automotive bearings.
             Earnings and margins improved because of better product mix
             and ongoing cost and expense reduction activities.

        O    Industrial Products includes Club Car golf cars and
             utility vehicles; tools; and related industrial
             production equipment.  Reported revenues of $247.7 million
             in the first quarter declined by 5%, compared to the first
             quarter of 1999, reflecting the absence of revenues related
             to the sale of the Automation Division, which had been part
             of the Industrial Products businesses. First-quarter
             revenues on a comparable basis increased by 7%.  Club Car
             revenues improved by more than 10% and tool revenues
             improved slightly. Operating earnings of $36.2 million
             increased by 33% because of improved volume for continuing
             businesses, cost reduction activities, and the absence of
             the Automation Division.

The Infrastructure Development Sector includes Bobcat compact
equipment; road pavers and compactors; portable power products;
and drilling equipment.  This sector's revenues totaled $581.4
million, an increase of 6% over last year's first-quarter.
Operating earnings of $96.9 million increased by 9% and the
operating margin was 16.7% of sales.  Revenues of Bobcat and
U.S. paving equipment increased by approximately 10%, while
portable power and drill revenues increased modestly.  Operating
earnings increased in all the businesses because of higher
revenues and ongoing productivity actions.

The Security and Safety Sector includes architectural hardware
products and electronic access-control technologies.  For this
sector, revenues increased by 15% to $333.5 million, compared to
the prior year.  The first quarter of 2000 benefited from the
results of Harrow Industries, Inc., acquired on March 31, 1999.
Operating earnings increased by 17% to $62.9 million.  Revenues
and earnings were strong in both residential and commercial
markets during the quarter.
