Report of Independent Accountants



To the Participants and Administrative Committee of the 
Flow International Corporation Voluntary Pension and 
Salary Deferral Plan



In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits and the related statement of changes in net assets available for 
plan benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets 
available for plan benefits of the Flow International Corporation Voluntary 
Pension and Salary Deferral Plan at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the 
results of its operations and the changes in its net assets available 
for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles.  These financial statements are the 
responsibility of the plan's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our 
audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, 
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that 
our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.  The additional information included in
the accompanying supplemental schedules is presented for purposes of additional 
analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is 
additional information required by ERISA.  Such information has been 
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic 
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material 
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Voluntary Pension and Salary Deferral Plan

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 1994
                                                     
Note 1 - Description of the Plan:

The Flow International Corporation Voluntary Pension and Salary Deferral Plan 
(the "Plan") is a defined contribution plan for the benefit of the 
non-bargaining employees of Flow International Corporation (the "Company"), 
effective October 1, 1986.

The Plan is administered by the Advisory Committee appointed by the Board of 
Directors of the Company.  Qualified employees may elect to contribute any 
amount between one percent and fifteen percent of their salary.  The Company 
shall contribute an amount equal to 50% of the first six percent of employee 
compensation contributed for employees with less than five years of service 
with the Company or 75% of the first six percent of employee compensation 
contributed for employees with five years or more of service.  Contributions
to the Plan are paid to a trust administered by the Plan trustees under the 
terms of a trust agreement.  The funds must be used for the exclusive benefit 
of Plan participants and their beneficiaries.

Employees are eligible for participation in the Plan upon completion of one
year of service.  Employer contributions and earnings thereon vest with 
individual participants based upon years of service with the Company; 
participants achieve one hundred percent vesting after five years of service
or at a normal retirement age.  Unvested employer contributions relating to 
terminated participants are forfeited and used to reduce the Company's 
future contributions to the Plan.  Participants are immediately vested in 
their voluntary contributions plus actual earnings thereon.  Vested benefits 
are payable upon the retirement, death, disability or request at termination 
of a participant.

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies:

Valuation of investments

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the accrual 
basis of accounting.

Deposit administration contracts are stated at contract value which 
approximates market value.  Contract values represent contributions made 
under the contracts, plus interest on the contracts, less funds used to 
purchase annuities and pay related administrative expenses.  Other 
investments are stated at the quoted market value.

Cash and cash equivalents on the Statement of Net Assets Available for 
Plan Benefits represents cash balances in the Money Market Fund as well 
as cash allocated to all other funds except for the Loan Fund.

<PAGE>7
Recognition of income and expenses

Administrative expenses are charged to the Plan and are reflected in 
these financial statements.

Investment transactions are recorded on the date of the purchase or 
sale.  Gains or losses are determined based on the fair market value 
of investments on the date of a transaction.

Rollovers

The Plan allows transfers from qualified plans.  Rollovers or 
plan-to-plan transfers are considered a contribution.

Participant loans

Effective September 30, 1992, the Company acquired all the stock in 
Spider Staging Corporation ("Spider") which maintained the Spider 
Staging Corporation 401(k) Savings Plan (the "Spider Plan") for its 
employees.  An amendment allowed the Company and Spider to merge the 
Spider Plan into the Plan effective January 1, 1993.  The Spider Plan
provided loans to participants, which were considered a participant 
directed investment of their account.  The loan is a trust investment, 
but only the borrowing participant's account shall share in the 
interest paid on the loan or bear any expense or risk of loss because 
of the loan.  Participant loans are secured by the vested portion of 
each borrower's account.  The rate charged on the loan is the prime 
rate as of the date of the loan's approval.  Effective January 1, 
1993, the Plan does not provide for any new loans to participants, 
except for those loans in process at that time.  Loan disbursements 
for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 totaled $0 and $8,500 
and loan repayments totaled $101,531 and $140,662 respectively.

Note 3 - Investments:

Plan participants may direct their salary deferral and employer matching 
contributions to one or a combination of six investment selections, known
as the FLOW Fund, the International Fund, the Small Company Fund, the 
Large Company Fund, the Bond Fund and the Money Market Fund.  The FLOW 
Fund consists of FLOW International Corporation common stock which is 
publicly traded in the NASDAQ National Market.  The International Fund 
consists of investments in securities of companies located outside the 
United States.  The Small Company Fund consists of investments in stock 
in small to medium size companies that exhibit the potential for a high 
rate of earnings growth.  The Large Company Fund consists of investments 
in large companies that also exhibit the potential for a high rate of 
earnings growth.  The Bond Fund invests in U.S. Government and Agency 
securities, corporate bonds issued by high quality companies and group 
annuities (Note 5).  Finally, the Money Market Fund consists of 
investments in high quality corporate and U.S. Government securities 
that have maturities of less than one year.  Participants may transfer 
balances between funds as well as change the investment allocation up 
to 4 times per year, but not more frequently than every ninety days.
