BRADY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Six Months Ended January 31, 1999
NOTE A - Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have
been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the
Company, the foregoing statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position of
the Company as of January 31, 1999, and July 3l, 1998, its results of operations
for the three months and six months ended January 31, 1999, and l998 and its
cash flows for the six months ended January 31, 1999, and 1998. The consolidated
balance sheet at July 31, l998, has been taken from the audited consolidated
financial statements of that date and condensed.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report.
It is not practical to segregate the amounts of raw material, work in
process or finished goods at the respective interim balance sheet dates.
NOTE B - Net Income Per Common Share
Last fiscal year the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which established new standards for the
calculation of net income per share effective for interim and annual periods
ending after December 15, 1997. Reconciliation's of the numerator and
denominator of the basic and diluted per share computations for the Company's
Class A and Class B common stock are summarized as follows:

Options to purchase 238,317 and 212,450 shares of Class A common stock
were not included in the computations of diluted earnings per share for the
quarters ending January 31, 1999, and 1998, respectively, because the option
exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares
and, therefore, the effect would be antidilutive.
Options to purchase 1,024,418 and 218,450 shares of Class A common
stock were not included in the computations of diluted earnings per share for
the six months ending January 31, 1999, and 1998, respectively, because the
option exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common
shares and, therefore, the effect would be antidilutive
NOTE C - Comprehensive Income
Effective August 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." Statement 130
establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components. The adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Company's
net income or stockholders' investment. Statement 130 requires the Company's
foreign currency translation adjustments, which prior to adoption were reported
separately in stockholders' investment, to be included in other comprehensive
income. Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform with
the requirements of Statement 130. Total comprehensive income, which was
comprised of net income and foreign currency adjustments, amounted to
approximately $5,154,000 and $5,020,000 for the three months ended January 31,
1999 and 1998, respectively, and $17,962,000 and $14,874,000 for the six months
ended January 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
NOTE D - Restructuring
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company recorded a
nonrecurring charge of $5,390,000 related primarily to a provision for severance
costs associated with a reduction in workforce at is operations around the
world. The workforce reduction of 7.5%, approximately 200 people, was
essentially completed in August 1998.

NOTE E - Acquisition
Effective August 16, 1998, the Company acquired the common stock of VEB
Sistemas de Etiquetas Ltda. located in Sao Paulo, Brazil, an industrial label
manufacturer, for cash of approximately $4,400,000. The purchase price of this
acquisition is subject to change based on post-closing adjustments.
This acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly the results of operations have been included since
the date of acquisition in the accompanying financial statements. The pro-forma
results assuming the acquisition had been consummated as of the beginning of the
periods presented are not significant.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
For the three months ended January 31, 1999, revenues of $112,309,000
were 4.8% higher than the same quarter of the previous year. For the six months
ended January 31, 1999, revenues of $229,111,000 were 3.0% higher than the same
period last year. Sales of the Company's international operations increased
13.1% for the quarter and 10.9% for the six months ended January 31, 1999. Of
that increase, continued market penetration in Brady's operations outside the
United States increased international sales by 6.2% for the quarter and 5.5% for
the six month period. The acquisitions of Techniques Avancees, GrafTek Inc. and
VEB Sistemas de Etiquetas Ltda. increased international sales by 5.7% for the
quarter and 5.6% for the six months. These increases were also impacted by the
effects of fluctuations in the exchange rates used to translate financial
results into U.S. currency, which increased international sales growth by 1.2
percentage points in the quarter and decreased them by 0.2 percentage points in
the six months. Sales of the Company's U.S. operations decreased 1.7% in the
quarter and 2.9% for the six months ended January 31, 1999, due primarily to
weakness in electrical and electronics markets.
The cost of products sold as a percentage of sales was 44.5% for the
quarter and 44.2% for the six months ended January 31, 1999, compared to 44.5%
and 45.1% for the same periods last year. Reduced costs due to changes in
product mix, the workforce reduction and manufacturing efficiencies from the
Company's continuous improvement efforts were offset by increases in inventory
reserves and increased depreciation and amortization expenses from the
acquisitions. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
sales were 39.9% for the quarter compared to 40.5% for the same quarter of the
previous year. For the six months ended January 31, 1999, this percentage was
39.8% compared to 39.6% for the same period last year. These changes are due
primarily to the acquisitions and increased direct marketing efforts. Research
and development expenditures decreased 12.2% for the quarter and 7.8% for the
six months ended January 31, 1999, over the same periods last year.
Operating income was $13,110,000 for the quarter and $27,639,000 for
the six months ended January 31, 1999, compared to $11,201,000 and $24,334,000
for the same periods last year because of the factors cited above. Investment
and other income decreased $538,000 for the quarter and $1,039,000 for the six
months ended January 31, 1999, over the same periods last year. These decreases
were the result of foreign exchange losses and lower investment income because
of lower interest rates.
Income before income taxes increased 11.2% for the quarter and 8.5% for
the six months ended January 31, 1999, compared to prior year results. The
effective tax rate was 39.5% this year and last year.
Net income for the three months ended January 31, 1999, increased 11.2%
to $7,974,000, compared to $7,169,000 for the same quarter of the previous year.
For the six months ended January 31, 1999, net income increased 8.5% to
$16,685,000 from $15,379,000 for the same period last year. On a per share
basis, fully diluted net income for the three months ended January 31, 1999, was
$0.35 compared to $0.31 for the same quarter of the previous year. For the six
months ended January 31, 1999, fully diluted net income per share was $0.73
compared to $0.68 for the same period last year.

Financial Condition
The Company's liquidity remains strong. The current ratio as of January
31, 1999, was 3.5 to 1. Cash and cash equivalents were $69,552,000 at January
31, 1998, compared to $65,609,000 at July 31, 1998. Working capital increased
$8,652,000 during the six months and equaled $134,038,000 as of January 31,
1999.
The Company continues to maintain significant cash balances due in
large part to its strong operating cash flow which totaled $19,921,000 for the
six months ended January 31, 1999, compared to $13,525,000 for the same period
last year. Capital expenditures were $6,298,000 in the six months ended January
31, 1999, compared to $7,014,000 in the first six months last year. These
expenditures were primarily progress payments made on the Company's new coating
line. Financing activities, primarily the payment of dividends to the Company's
stockholders, consumed $6,358,000 of cash in the first six months of fiscal
1999, compared to $5,833,000 for the same period last year.
Long-term debt as a percentage of long-term debt plus stockholders'
investment was 1.5% at January 31, 1999, compared to 1.6% at July 31, 1998.
The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents and the cash
flow it generates from operating activities are adequate to meet the Company's
current investing and financing needs.
Year 2000 Compliance
The inability of computers, software and other equipment utilizing
microprocessors to recognize and properly process data fields containing a 2
digit year is commonly referred to as the Year 2000 Compliance issue (the
"Issue"). As the year 2000 approaches, such systems may be unable to process
certain date-based information. This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations and the inability to engage in
normal business activities. Many of the Company's systems, including information
and computer systems and automated equipment, will be affected by the Issue.
The Company has a comprehensive plan to address the Issue. The plan
includes (i) the complete inventory of all in-house computers, software and
other equipment utilizing microprocessors and identification of all hardware and
software affected by the Issue; (ii) modification of the affected systems; and
(iii) testing the modified system, installing the changes and auditing the
installed system for final compliance. The Company is using both internal and
external resources to implement its plan. The Company has generally completed
the inventory phase and is at various stages of modification and testing of
these systems. The Company feels it has adequate time to assess and correct any
significant issues that materialize. The Company currently estimates that the
total cost of its Year 2000 project will be approximately $2,000,000. Costs
associated with this issue have been and will continue to be expensed as
incurred and are not expected to have a material effect on the results of
operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company.
As a third-party supplier of software and printing systems to other
companies, the Company has posted its own product compliance status on its
Internet site (www.bradycorp.com).
10
<PAGE> 11
The Company has completed the process of formally communicating with
all of its significant suppliers and customers to determine the extent to which
the Company is vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remediate their own
Year 2000 Compliance issues. The Company can not guarantee that the systems of
other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be converted on time,
or that a failure to convert by another company, or a conversion that is
incompatible with the Company's systems would not have a material adverse effect
on the Company.
The costs of the project and the timetable in which the Company plans
to complete the Year 2000 requirements are based upon management's best
estimates, which are derived utilizing assumptions of future events including
the continued availability of personnel trained in this area, the ability to
locate and correct all relevant computer codes, and similar uncertainties.
However, there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be achieved, and
actual results could differ significantly from these plans. If the Company's
plan to address the Issue is not successfully or timely implemented, the Company
may need to devote more resources to the process and additional costs may be
incurred, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition and results of operations.
Management of the Company believes it has an effective program in place
to resolve the Issue in a timely manner. Nevertheless, since it is not possible
to anticipate all possible future outcomes, especially when third parties are
involved, there could be circumstances in which the Company would be unable to
take customer orders, manufacture and ship products, invoice customers and
collect payments, or the Company could be subject to litigation for product
failure. The amount of potential liability and lost revenue has not been
estimated.
Contingency plans will be developed in the second quarter of calendar
1999 and most of calendar 1999 has been reserved for final verification of all
Year 2000 Compliance processes and rehearsal of contingency plans.
