              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


           (1)  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
 consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only
 normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial
 position, results of operations and cash flows of Lufkin Industries, Inc. and
 Subsidiaries (the "Company") for all periods presented.  The consolidated
 balance sheet as of December 31, 1996, was derived from the audited
 consolidated balance sheet included in the Company's 1996 annual report on Form
 10-K.  The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997, are
 not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full
 fiscal year.

           These statements have been prepared in accordance with the
 requirements for interim financial statements contained in Regulation S-X,
 which do not require all the information and footnotes necessary for a fair
 presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in
 conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Therefore, these
 statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
 statements and related footnotes included in the Company's annual report on
 Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

           (2)  Consolidated inventories consist of the following:

 
                                6-30-97    12-31-96

           (3) In February, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
 issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."  SFAS No. 128 revises the
 methodology to be used in computing earnings per share (EPS) such that the
 computations required for primary and fully diluted EPS are to be replaced with
 "basic" and "diluted" EPS.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the
 weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year.
 Diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as fully diluted EPS, except that,
 among other changes, the average share price for the period is used in all
 cases when applying the treasury stock method to potentially dilutive
 outstanding options.

 The Company will adopt SFAS No. 128 effective December 15, 1997, and will
 restate EPS for all periods presented.  Below is a comparison of currently
 reported earnings per share to pro forma earnings per share under SFAS No. 128:

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis

                   LUFKIN INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

(1)  Changes in Financial Condition

        At June 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of $65,978,000 as
compared to $69,385,000 at December 31, 1996, a decrease of $3,407,000.
Inventories increased by approximately $8,792,000 to $30,355,000 at June 30,
1997 from $21,563,000 at December 31, 1996. The increase in inventory levels is
primarily related to increased sales volumes and backlog levels. The Company
believes that its existing working capital plus its arranged borrowing capacity
should be sufficient to satisfy its liquidity requirements over the next twelve
months.

(2)  Changes in Results of Operations

        Net sales for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 1997
increased 24% and 15%, respectively over the same periods ended June 30, 1996.
Sales by product group for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996 were as follows:

</TABLE>

        For the second quarter and first six months of 1997, oil field pumping
unit sales were up 60% and 40%, respectively, compared to the same periods of
1996.  These increases reflected increased domestic sales volumes and more
active markets in Canada and South America.  Trailer sales were up 49% and 25%
for the second quarter and first six months of 1997, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 1996.  Trailer sales volumes increased  as a result of
stronger trailer market demands.

        Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 18% for the second quarter
in 1997 and 1996.  For the first six months of 1997, gross profit as a
percentage of sales was 16% compared to 17% for the same period in 1996.  The
decrease in gross margin reflects the mix effect of increased lower margin
trailer sales for the first six months of 1997, partially offset by increased
volumes of higher margin oil field pumping unit sales.

        Selling, General and Administrative (S.G.&A.) expenses increased
$950,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and $1,731,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 over the same period in 1996.  The increase in
S.G.&A. expenses resulted primarily from increased selling expenses associated
with the Company's efforts to expand its presence in new markets world wide.

        Other income increased to $1,091,000 for the first six months of 1997
from $995,000 for the first six months of 1996.

        The Company recorded income tax expenses of $2,904,000 for the first
six months of 1997 compared to $3,016,000 for the same period in 1996,
reflecting an essentially flat effective tax rate.

        Net earnings for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1997
were $3,879,000 and $5,393,000, respectively, compared to $2,926,000 and
$5,361,000 for the same periods in 1996.

        At June 30, 1997, the backlog was $106,180,000 compared to $99,691,000
at December 31, 1996. Backlogs for oil field pumping units and trailers
increased as a result of stronger market demands.  The backlog for power
transmission products increased by 24% over the year end 1996 backlog due to
increased order bookings during the first six months of 1997.

        Backlog by product group at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 was as
