NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the
financial statements include all material adjustments, consisting solely of
normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's
financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The results of this
interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost of
inventories is determined principally by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.
Income Taxes
Provisions for income tax in the amounts of $2,068,000 and $1,979,000
were recorded for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
Goodwill
The Company amortizes Goodwill on the straight line basis over the
estimated period to be benefitted. The acquisitions of National Northeast
Corporation, National Southeast Aluminum Corporation, and Heat Exchangers, Inc.
in 1995 resulted in goodwill of $11,118,000 which is being amortized over 25
years. The acquisitions of Rowe Machinery & Automation, Inc., and Omega Flex,
Inc. in 1996 resulted in goodwill of $7,729,000 which is being amortized over 25
years. The acquisition of Hill Engineering, Inc. on January 31, 1997, resulted
in goodwill of $2,892,000 which is being amortized over 25 years. The Company
continually evaluates the carrying value of goodwill. Any impairments would be
recognized when the expected future operating cash flows derived from such
goodwill is less than their carrying value.
Reclassification
Reclassifications are made periodically to previously issued financial
statements to conform with the current year presentation.

============ ===========
Revolving Loan Agreement - The Company has a Revolving Loan Agreement and Letter
of Credit Facility (the Agreement) with a commercial bank. The Agreement
provides $55 million of unsecured revolving and $10 million of standby letter of
credit capacity. Borrowings under the Agreement bear interest at a floating rate
based on the bank's prime rate less 1.00% or, at the discretion of the borrower,
LIBOR plus a quoted market factor or, alternatively, in lieu of the prime based
rate, a rate based on the overnight Federal Funds Rate. The Agreement was
recently renewed on a one year basis extending through April 30, 1999. The
Revolving Loan Agreement contains financial covenants which require that the
Company maintain certain current ratios, working capital amounts, capital bases
and leverage ratios. This Agreement also contains restrictions regarding the
creation of indebtedness, the occurrence of mergers or consolidations, the sale
of subsidiary stock, and the payment of dividends in excess of 50% of net
income.
On April 5, 1996 the Company borrowed 15,000,000 from a commercial
insurance company on an unsecured basis, executing a Note Purchase Agreement and
the related Senior Notes, (The Notes). The Notes matured and were paid off on
March 1, 1998. The notes bore interest at 5.53% per annum.
Other bonds and notes payable include $670,000 in secured obligations
assumed in connection with the purchase of Hill Engineering, Inc. on January 31,
1997.

Note 4 - Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share were computed using the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding. Common stock options were considered in the
computation of diluted earnings.
Note 5 - Subsequent Event
On April 29, 1998 the Company, through a newly established Canadian
subsidiary, acquired 100% of the capital stock of Ruscio Brothers Refractory,
Ltd. (RBR) and 988721 Ontario Inc. (988721) of Mississauga,Ontario, Canada
for approximately $4.3 million CA. RBR and 988721 operate under the
name Ruscio Brothers Industries (RBI). RBI manufactures copper-finned boilers
and water heaters which are distributed primarily in Canada. Copper-finned
boilers are complementary to the Company's other boiler products and the Company
expects that its distribution network in the United States will substantially
expand RBI's sales.
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operation
Total Revenues in the Company's HVAC segment during the first quarter
of 1997 were reduced relative to the first quarter of 1997, by $3,156,000 or
5.9%. HVAC sales were adversely effected by the relatively mild winter of 1998
as well as by changes in the Company's traditional deferred billing program
which resulted in the postponement of certain shipments from the first quarter
to the third quarter of 1998. Gross profit margins for the HVAC segment
decreased slightly, from 28.0% to 27.3%. Operating income for this segment was
accordingly reduced from $4,656,000 in the first quarter of 1997 to $3,434,000
in the first quarter of 1998.
Total Revenues in the Company's Metal Products segment were up
significantly during the first quarter of 1998 ($22,085,000 versus $18,529,000),
principally as a result of substantial revenue growth in the segment's National
Northeast and Omega-Flex units. National Northeast has continued to expand its
capabilities as a high end manufacturer of thermal heat sinks. Omega-Flex has
begun to enjoy the fruits of significant market development and product
development costs incurred in 1996 and 1997 relative to it's Trac-Pipe(TM)
flexible gas piping product, the demand for which has grown substantially since
the product's introduction in 1997. As a result of these factors, gross profit
margins improved significantly, from 23.8% to 28.5%, and operating income
increased from $1,190,000 to $2,169,000.
The Company's computer systems segment reported slightly improved
revenues, but slightly reduced Gross Profit margins and, as a result, slightly
reduced operating income.
For the Company as a whole, Selling, General and Administrative, and
Engineering costs, taken together as a percentage of Total Revenues, were
slightly reduced from 19.71% to 18.05%.
Operating income for the first quarter of 1997 for the Company as a
whole, increased by $123,000 or 2.1% reflecting the net effects of the factors
mentioned above.
The Company's total debt (long-term debt plus current portion of
long-term debt) was relatively unchanged during the quarter ended March 31,
1998. Management regards the Company's current capital structure and banking
relationships as fully adequate to meet foreseeable future needs. The Company
has not paid dividends on its common stock since 1979.
