                       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 and six months ended
         June 30, 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 $543 million in cash.  As previously
         announced, the company intends to divest of D-R as soon as
         possible. (See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
         Statements).

         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
         $23 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 June 14, 2000, IR Merger Corporation, a wholly owned
         subsidiary of the company, acquired in excess of 93% of the
         outstanding shares of Hussmann International, Inc. (Hussmann),
         for a cash price of $29 per share pursuant to a May 16, 2000
         tender offer.  Hussmann's business is the design, production,
         installation and service of merchandising and refrigeration
         systems for the global food industry.  Hussmann is based in
         Bridgeton, Missouri, and reported consolidated sales of $1.3
         billion for the year ended December 31, 1999.  On June 16,
         2000, the company completed the merger of IR Merger
         Corporation with Hussmann.  Upon consummation of the merger,
         Hussmann became a wholly owned subsidiary of the company and
         the shareholders of Hussmann who did not tender their shares
         became entitled to receive $29 per share in cash.  The total
         purchase price for Hussmann was approximately $1.7 billion
         after taking into account amounts paid for outstanding stock
         options, employee contracts and various other transaction
         costs.

         The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase.  The
         purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the acquired
         assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values
         and the allocation is subject to final adjustment.  The
         company has classified as goodwill, the costs in excess of
         the fair value of the 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 the acquisition.  These
         assets are being amortized over their estimated useful
         lives.

         The results of Hussmann's operations have been included in
         the consolidated financial statements from the acquisition
         date.  The following unaudited pro forma consolidated
         results for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999
         reflect the acquisition as though it occurred at the
         beginning of the respective periods after adjustments for
         interest on acquisition debt, depreciation and amortization
         of assets, including goodwill, which reflect the preliminary
         purchase price allocations (in millions, except per share
         amounts):

         The above pro forma results are not necessarily indicative
         of what the actual results would have been had the

         Historically, Hussmann's operating profits tend to be more
         heavily concentrated during the second half of the year.

Note 4 - On February 4, 2000, the company sold the Corona Clipper
         business for approximately $43 million.  Corona Clipper
         manufactures hand tools for pruning and harvesting.  Corona
         Clipper was acquired on March 30, 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 August 8, 2000, the company sold Ingersoll-Dresser Pump
         Company (IDP) to Flowserve Corporation for $775 million.
         The company realized a pretax accounting gain of
         approximately $200 million.

         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 5 - Net assets of IDP and D-R are included in "Assets held for
         sale" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and their
         results have been reported as "Discontinued operations (net
         of tax)" on the condensed consolidated income statement.
         The 1999 second quarter and year-to-date results have been
         restated to reflect the discontinued operations.

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

The company's results for the second quarter of the year established
a new record.  Sales approximated $2.2 billion, operating income was
$348.5 million and earnings from continuing operations reached $183.4
million ($1.13 diluted earnings per share).  For the second quarter
of 1999, the company's sales were approximately $2.0 billion, with
operating income of $304.8 million and earnings from continuing
operations of $156.2 million ($0.93 diluted earnings per share).

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

o    Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2000 approximated
     $2.2 billion, an increase of 7.0% over last year's second
     quarter.

o    The ratio of cost of goods sold to sales for the second quarter
     of 2000 improved slightly to 71.7% compared to last year's
     second quarter ratio of 71.9%.  The improvement is attributable
     to the benefits of cost reduction, efficiency and sourcing
     programs which more than offset the negative effects of currency
     on the cost ratio.

o    The ratio of administrative, selling and service engineering
     expenses to sales was 12.3% for the second quarter of the year,
     as compared to 13.2% for the comparable 1999 quarter. The
     quarterly improvement is attributed to continued success of the
     company's cost-containment programs.

o    Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2000
     totalled $348.5 million, an increase of $43.6 million (or 14.3%)
     over the $304.8 million reported for 1999's second quarter. The
     ratio of operating income to sales in 2000 was 15.9%, as
     compared to 14.9% for the second quarter of the prior year.

o    Other income (expense), net, aggregated $4.0 million of net expense
     for the second quarter, as compared to $2.2 million of net expense
     for the three months ended June 30, 1999.  This additional net
     expense is primarily attributed to a reduction in income from foreign
     currency activity during the comparable periods.

o    Minority interest increased from the second 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 during both quarters.

o    Interest expense from continuing operations for the second
     quarter of 2000 was $55.3 million, which includes $5.2 million
     associated with debt issued to acquire Hussmann International,
     Inc. (Hussmann).  Excluding Hussmann-related interest expense,
     interest expense for the second quarter of 2000 was $3.0 million
     below last year's level.  The decrease is attributable to lower
     average debt balances during the comparable periods. Additional
     interest expense from the debt required to purchase IDP and D-R
     has been classified as a component of discontinued operations
     and was not included in interest expense.

o    The company's effective tax rate for the second quarter of the
     year was 33.7% as compared to 35.5% for the three months ended
     June 30, 1999. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of
     2000 includes $5 million of tax credits generated by the
     company's foreign sales corporation. The tax rate for the third
     and fourth quarters of the current year is expected to be 35.5%.

o    Discontinued operations (net of tax) for 2000 resulted in a loss
     of $8.0 million for the second quarter of the year, compared
     with income of $10.3 million in the comparable 1999 quarter.
     Included in the 2000 results were all of Ingersoll-Dresser Pump
     Company (IDP) results and 100% of Dresser-Rand Company (D-R)
     since February 2, 2000 and the interest expense from the debt
     required to purchase IDP and D-R as well as additional goodwill
     amortization associated with the acquisitions, and tax credits
     generated by the foreign sales corporation.  IDP has shown
     improvement in its quarterly results while unfavorable
     conditions in the oil industry continue to adversely impact D-R
     business.  The second quarter of 1999 includes 51% of IDP's
     earnings and 49% of D-R's results.

The consolidated results for the second 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 second quarter of the year approximated $2.1 billion, which was
higher than last year's second quarter total.  The company's backlog
of orders at June 30, 2000, believed by it to be firm, was $1.0
billion, which was 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.

The company's results for the first six months of the year, also
established a new record.  Sales approximated $4.2 billion, operating
income was $617.8 million and earnings from continuing operations
amounted to $323.0 million ($1.98 diluted earnings per share).  For
the first two quarters of 1999, the company's sales were
approximately $3.9 billion, with operating income of $543.4 million
and earnings from continuing operations of $270.2 million ($1.63
diluted earnings per share).

A comparison of key income statement amounts between the six months
ended June 30, is as follows:

o    Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2000 approximated
     $4.2 billion, an increase of 5.8% over last year's comparable
     period.

o    The ratio of cost of goods sold to sales for the first six
     months of the year improved to 72.2% compared to last year's
     ratio of 72.7%.  The improvement is attributable to the benefits
     of cost reduction, efficiency and strategic sourcing programs
     which more than offset the negative effects of foreign currency
     on the cost ratio.

o    The ratio of administrative, selling and service engineering
     expenses to sales was 13.0% for the first two quarters of 2000,
     as compared to 13.5% for the comparable 1999 period. The
     improvement is attributed to continued success of the company's
     cost-containment programs.

o    Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 totalled
     $617.8 million, an increase of $74.3 million (or 13.7%) over the
     $543.4 million reported for 1999's first six months. The ratio
     of operating income to sales in 2000 increased to 14.8%, as
     compared to 13.8% for the comparable period of the prior year.

o    Other income (expense), net, aggregated $1.2 million of net expense
     for the first six months of the year, as compared to $5.5 million of
     net expense for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Reduction in
     income from currency transactions during the comparable periods was
     more than offset by the gain from the first quarter sale of three
     joint ventures and higher earnings from partially-owned affiliates.

o    Minority interest increased by $6.6 million during the first
     six months of 2000 over last year's six month total as a
     result of higher earnings from consolidated jointly-owned
     entities in which the company has a majority ownership.
     Charges for the company's equity-linked securities equalled
     last year's six month total.

o    Interest expense for the first six months of 2000 was $103.5
     million, which includes $5.2 million associated with debt issued
     to acquire Hussmann.  The overall decrease of $2.1 million from
     last year is attributable to lower average debt balances during
     the comparable periods. Additional interest expense from the
     debt required to purchase IDP and D-R has been classified as a
     component of discontinued operations and was not included in
     interest expense.

o    The company's effective tax rate for the first six months of the
     year was 34.5% as compared to 35.5% for the six months ended
     June 30, 1999. The effective tax rate for the period includes a
     second quarter tax credit of $5 million generated by the
     company's foreign sales corporation. The tax rate for the third
     and fourth quarters of the current year is expected to be 35.5%
     and the effective tax rate for all of 1999 was 35.5%.

o    Discontinued operations (net of tax) for the first two quarters
     of 2000 resulted in a loss of $11.6 million, compared with
     income of $17.4 million in the comparable 1999 period.  Included
     in the 2000 results were all of IDP results and 100% of D-R
     since February 2, 2000 and the interest expense from the debt
     required to purchase IDP and D-R as well as additional goodwill
     amortization associated with the acquisitions, and tax credits
     generated by the foreign sales corporation.  IDP has shown
     improvement in its results while unfavorable conditions in the
     oil industry continue to adversely impact D-R business.  The
     first six months of 1999 include 51% of IDP's earnings and 49%
     of D-R's results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The company's working capital at June 30, 2000 showed current
liabilities in excess of current assets by $697.1 million, which
reflects a change of $1.8 billion from the positive working capital
balance of $1,129.4 million at December 31, 1999. The primary reason for
this change is the June 14, 2000 acquisition of Hussmann.  Hussmann
added approximately $500 million of current assets and $240 million of
current liabilities to the company's consolidated balance sheet at
June 30, 2000, before considering the acquisition cost of approximately $1.7
billion, which was temporarily financed by the issuance of short-term
debt. Excluding Hussmann related current assets and liabilities from the
company's June 30, 2000 condensed consolidated balance sheet, the
working capital balance would be approximately $595 million, which is
lower than the year end balance primarily due to the reclassification of
$400 million of the company's 6.255% Notes Due 2001, from long term debt
to current liabilities in the June 30, 2000 condensed consolidated
balance sheet.  The company used the proceeds from the sale of IDP to
repay short-term debt.

The current ratio was 1.6 at the end of 1999, and the adjusted current
ratio (excluding Hussmann related activity) was 1.2 at June 30, 2000.
The company's debt-to-total capital ratio at June 30, 2000 was 57%,
compared with 42% reported at December 31, 1999.  Excluding Hussmann
debt related activity the June 30, 2000 ratio would be 45%. This
increase of three percentage points is attributable to the
February 2, 2000 purchase of the remaining 51% of D-R.

The company's cash and cash equivalents totalled $80.4 million at
June 30, 2000 down significantly from the $222.9 million at
December 31, 1999, primarily due to cash used for the February 2, 2000
purchase of the remaining 51% interest in D-R.  During the first six
months of the year, cash flows from operating activities provided
$146.1 million, investing activities used $2,258.5 million and
financing activities provided $1,966.8 million.

Receivables totalled $1.5 billion at June 30, 2000, which represents
an increase of $541.6 million increase over the amount reported at
December 31, 1999.  Acquisitions and foreign currency translation
increased the balance by $339.9 million and $21.8 million,
respectively. The balance of the increase is attributed to the timing
of strong second quarter sales.

Inventories totalled $947.2 million at June 30, 2000, which
represents an increase of $205.1 million from the year-end balance of
$742.1 million. Acquisitions and foreign currency translation
increased the balance by $129.2 million and $21.3 million,
respectively.  The remainder is attributed to the building of
inventory to fulfill orders in the third and fourth quarters.

Assets held for sale were $1,293.3 million at June 30, 2000, an
increase of $493.6 million over the December 31, 1999 balance.  This
account increased by approximately $543 million due to the February
2, 2000 purchase of the remainder of D-R, and decreased due to the
sale of Corona Clipper and the losses generated by these discontinued
units during the first six months of the year. (See Notes 2 and 4 to
the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of the
status of the sales of these units.)

Intangible assets increased by approximately $1.4 billion during the
first six months of 2000. Acquisitions increased the account balance
by approximately $1.5 billion during the first six months of the
year.  Amortization expense for the first six months of the year was
$57.1 million.  The remaining reduction is attributed to foreign
currency translation.

Loans payable totalled $3.2 billion at June 30, 2000 as compared to
$495.5 million at December 31, 1999.  Acquisitions and the related
debt activity accounted for approximately $2.2 billion of the increase
and the reclassification of $400 million of long-term debt to short-
term debt represents the remainder of the change from the year-end
balance.

During the first six months of 2000, foreign currency translation
adjustments resulted in a net decrease of $58.6 million in
shareholders' equity, caused primarily 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 28 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 Bobcat and Ingersoll-Rand compact
equipment lines in Europe.  Sambron's results have been reported as
part of the Infrastructure Development Sector since their
acquisition.

On February 28, 2000, the company acquired for approximately $23
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.

On June 14, 2000, the company acquired Hussmann for approximately
$1.7 billion. Hussmann, based in Bridgeton, Missouri, is the world
leader in the design, production, installation and service of
merchandising and refrigeration systems for the global food industry.
Hussmann's results have been reported as part of the Climate Control
Sector since acquisition.

On August 7, 2000, the company acquired Interflex Datensysteme GmbH
(Interflex).  Interflex, based in Germany, provides integrated
products and services for electronic access control, time and
attendance recording, personnel scheduling and industrial data
management. Interflex's results will be reported as part of the
Security and Safety Sector.

Dispositions

On February 4, 2000, the company sold the Corona Clipper business for
approximately $43 million.  Corona Clipper is a manufacturer of hand
tools for pruning and harvesting.  Corona Clipper was acquired on
March 30, 1999 in conjunction with the acquisition of Harrow
Industries, Inc.

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.

The company sold IDP to Flowserve Corporation (Flowserve) on
August 8, 2000 with the company realizing a pretax accounting gain
of $200 million.  (See Discontinued Operations below).  The company
intends to use substantially all of the gain realized on the sale of
IDP on productivity initiatives.

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 $543 million in cash.  On February 9, 2000,
the company agreed to sell its IDP unit to Flowserve.  The transaction
closed on August 8, 2000.

On July 12, 2000, the company agreed to sell the reciprocating gas
compressor packaging and rental business of D-R to Hanover Compressor
Company for $190 million, $95 million of which will be in cash, with
the balance in Hanover stock. The sale, which is subject to necessary
government and regulatory approvals, is expected to close during the
third quarter of the year. The company continues to market the
remaining portion of D-R and, although not currently involved in
serious negotiations, continues to target a sale prior to year-end
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.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements."  This accounting bulletin will become effective in the
fourth quarter of 2000, and provides guidance in applying generally
accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial
statements.  The company is currently evaluating this bulletin and
will comply as required.

Second-quarter Business Segment Review

The Climate Control Sector includes Thermo King transport
temperature control equipment and Hussmann International, the world
leader in display case refrigeration, which was acquired on June 14,
2000.  The sector's second quarter revenues totalled $394.0 million,
an increase of 26% compared to last year, reflecting improved results
for the North American truck market, the worldwide container business
and the inclusion of Hussmann.  Operating earnings increased by two
percent to $48.8 million.  Operating margins declined primarily
because of unfavorable currency comparisons and product mix. Hussmann
added revenues of $53.1 million and contributed $3.3 million of
operating income to the second quarters' results.

The Industrial Productivity Sector is composed of a group of
businesses focused on providing solutions for customers to enhance
industrial efficiency.  Second-quarter revenues on a comparable basis
increased approximately five percent.  Reported revenues of $791.9
million increased by three percent compared to the amount reported
for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Last year's second quarter
includes the results of the Automation Division which was sold during
the fourth quarter of 1999. Operating income increased by 23% to
$115.6 million, primarily due to the improved results in the Air
Solutions and Bearings and Components businesses.  All businesses in
the sector reported improved operating margins for the second quarter
of the year.  The Industrial Productivity Sector consists of three
segments:

 O  Air Solutions, which provides equipment and services for
    compressed air systems, had revenues in the second quarter of
    $209.3 million, an improvement of 13% compared to 1999, due to
    improved overseas markets, stronger sales of small compressors
    and increased service revenues.  Operating income increased by
    26% to $25.5 million, reflecting higher volumes and the impact
    of ongoing cost-reduction and efficiency programs. Operating
    margins improved to 12.2% of sales in the second quarter of the
    year, as compared to 10.9% in the comparable 1999 quarter.

 O  Bearings and Components provides motion control technologies
    to the automotive and industrial markets.  Revenues for the
    quarter declined by two percent to $312.7 million, as increases
    in automotive bearings were more than offset by lower revenues
    for industrial bearings reduced sales of automotive components,
    due to the loss of the camshaft business in 1999. However,
    operating margins improved to 16.1% of sales for the second
    quarter of the year, as compared to last year's comparable ratio
    of 11.7%, due to a combination 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 $269.9 million in the second
    quarter increased slightly, compared to the second quarter of
    1999, even after considering the fact that last year's second
    quarter included revenues from the Automation Division (which
    was sold in the fourth quarter of 1999).  Second-quarter revenues
    on a comparable basis increased by eight percent. Operating
    income of $39.9 million for the second quarter of the year
    increased by nine percent over the prior year's comparable
    quarter due to improved volume and the benefits from cost
    reduction programs. Second quarter operating margins increased
    to 14.8% of sales, as compared to 13.8% for three months ended
    June 30, 1999.

The Infrastructure Development Sector includes Bobcat compact
equipment; road pavers and compactors; portable power products; and
drilling equipment.  This sector's revenues for the second quarter
of the year totalled $646.3 million, reflecting a slight increase
over last year's second quarter. Revenues of Bobcat and domestic
paving equipment increased by more than 10%, while revenues from
portable power, compactor and drilling products declined.
Operating income of $126.0 million increased by five percent and the
operating margin for the second quarter improved to 19.5% of sales.

The Security and Safety Sector includes architectural hardware
products and electronic access-control technologies.  For this
sector, second quarter revenues increased by 10% to $353.6 million,
when compared to the comparable quarter in the prior year. Operating
income increased by 34% to $75.3 million. This sector's operating
income margin improved to 21.3% of sales for the quarter, as
compared to 17.5% for the second quarter of 1999.  Revenues and
earnings were strong in both residential and commercial markets
during the quarter.
