 ITEM 1. BUSINESS
 
  (a) General Development of Business
 
    PRESSURE PIPING COMPONENTS, INC. ("PPC", "Company") was originally
incorporated under Delaware law in October 1980 as "HSI-Sub, Inc.", a
wholly-owned and inactive subsidiary of Hi-Shear Industries Inc., a Delaware
corporation whose common stock is listed and traded on the New York Stock
Exchange ("Hi-Shear"). In March 1984, the Company was activated to hold all of
the outstanding shares of Midwood Industries, Inc. ("Midwood") and Tube-Line
Corporation ("Tube-Line"), the wholly-owned subsidiaries of Hi-Shear which for
20 years had comprised the Pressure Piping Components Division of Hi-Shear and
its predecessor. In March 1984, Midwood and Tube-Line were merged with and into
the Company and thereupon became the wholly-owned subsidiary of Hi-Shear engaged
in the pressure piping components business. Effective May 29, 1984, Hi-Shear
distributed to its stockholders all of the outstanding shares of PPC. At the
time of the distribution the Company's business consisted of the manufacture and
distribution of stainless steel fittings and flanges, the importation and
distribution of foreign carbon steel fittings and flanges and the manufacture
and distribution of domestic carbon steel fittings and flanges.
 
    Subsequent to the distribution, the pressure piping components business as a
whole did not demonstrate any significant economic improvement. Management
therefore decided to reduce the size of the business and create greater
liquidity with a view to possibly utilizing the cash generated to invest in its
remaining operations. After taking initial steps to reorganize the business by
selling the stainless steel division in December 1984 and liquidating the
foreign import operation in April 1985, management reevaluated its remaining
carbon steel business. In light of the fact that profit margins in the industry
continued to show no signs of improvement a decision was made that, in the best
interests of preserving the capital left in the Company, substantially all of
the assets of the domestic carbon steel business should be sold. On August 7,
1985, the assets of the domestic carbon steel business were sold and the Company
ceased operations.
 
  (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments and Classes of Products or
Services
 
    With the sale of its last remaining manufacturing operation on August 7,
1985, the Company no longer conducts an operating business.
 
  (c) Narrative Description of Business
 
    With the sale of its last remaining operating assets in August 1985, the
Company has reviewed and continues to review and evaluate acquisition
opportunities.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
    The Company currently has no full time employees.
 
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
 
    The Company's headquarters are located at 3333 New Hyde Park Road, North
Hills, New York in space shared with Hi-Shear Industries Inc. (HSI). HSI is

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS
 
    With the sale of its last remaining operating assets on August 7, 1985, the
Company effectively ceased its operations. Since that time the Company has
invested the funds generated from the sale of its
 
                                       2
<PAGE>
former businesses primarily in U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. government-backed
municipal obligations and bank time deposits while it has explored several
alternatives relating to the future of the Company including the acquisition of
several businesses.
 
    In that regard the Company entered into negotiations during fiscal 1994 to
purchase certain assets and the business of a company that was in bankruptcy
reorganization. Such negotiations subsequently proved unsuccessful and the
Company recognized incurred and estimated costs totaling $150,000 in 1994 in
conjunction with this unsuccessful attempt. Actual costs of the unsuccessful
negotiations were $90,000 resulting in a credit to income of $60,000 in 1995 to
reflect the actual costs.
 
    While it remains the Company's intention to continue to explore investment
opportunities, the current credit environment, as well as our own limited
resources, has made this task a difficult one. At May 31, 1995, the Company had
$2,604,000 of cash, cash equivalents -primarily bank time deposits. It is the
intention of the Company to utilize these funds as well as obtainable debt
instruments in financing a suitable acquisition.
 
    Investment income has increased in the current year due to an increase in
interest rates after two years of declining rates. Investment income declined in
1994 due to an overall decline in interest rates and levels of cash invested.
 
    The Company has adequate working capital and investment income to fund
general and administrative expenses.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    Earnings Per Share--Earnings per share are computed based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during each period.
 
    Cash and Cash Equivalents--Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of
reporting cash flows include cash on deposit and amounts due from a bank
maturing within 90 days of purchase. The amounts due from bank are exposed to
the credit risk of the bank.
 
    Investments--Investments with maturities between three and twelve months are
considered to be short-term investments. Such investments are carried at cost,
which approximates market. Cost in computing gain or loss on sales of
investments is determined on a specific identification basis. The Financial
Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards Number 115 "Accounting for Certain investments in Debt and Equity
Securities" which the Company adopted on June 1, 1994. The statement requires
that marketable equity and debt securities be classified into three categories;
(i) held to maturity securities, (ii) trading securities and (iii) available for
sale securities. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from available for sale
securities are reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity.
Unrealized gains and losses from trading securities are reported on the
statement of operations. The Company did not have investments in debt or equity
securities as of the date of adoption and, as such, the adoption had no effect
on the financial statements.
 
    Income Taxes--Effective June 1, 1993, the Company changed its method of
accounting for income taxes from the deferred method to the liability method
required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes." As permitted under the new Statement, prior years' financial
statements have not been restated. The cumulative effect of adopting this
Statement as of June 1, 1993 was immaterial to net earnings.
 
2. INCOME TAXES
 
    The provision for income taxes consists of state income taxes of $1,000 for
each of the years ended May 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993.
 
    The following is a reconciliation of the statutory income tax rate to the
effective income tax rate.

</TABLE>
 
    Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. At May 31, 1995 and 1994,
the Company had deferred tax assets of $3,260,000 and $3,299,000 representing
$9,587,000 and $9,704,000, respectively, of net operating loss carryforwards.

                        PRESSURE PIPING COMPONENTS, INC.
                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
 
Of the $9,587,000 net operating loss carryforwards at May 31, 1995, $7,769,000
expires in the year 2000 and the balance in the years 2001 through 2010. A
valuation allowance at May 31, 1995 and 1994 of $3,260,000 and $3,299,000,
respectively, has been recognized to offset the entire amount of the related
deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realizing the benefit of the loss
carryforwards. The reduction of the valuation allowance of $39,000 in 1995
resulted from utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.
 
3. TRANSACTIONS WITH HI-SHEAR INDUSTRIES INC.
 
    Certain Directors of the Company are executive officers of, and one Director
owns more than ten percent of the outstanding common stock of, Hi-Shear
Industries Inc.'(HSI)." HSI provides substantially all administrative services
for the Company for which it charges the Company a management fee. Included in
general and administrative costs are certain overhead charges from HSI of
$18,000 per year for 1995, 1994 and 1993.
 
4. ACQUISITION COSTS
 
    The Company entered into negotiations during fiscal 1994 to purchase certain
assets and the business of a company that was in bankruptcy reorganization. Such
negotiations subsequently proved unsuccessful and the Company recognized
incurred and estimated costs totaling $150,000 in 1994 in conjunction with this
unsuccessful attempt. Actual costs of the unsuccessful negotiations were $90,000
resulting in a credit to income of $60,000 in 1995 to reflect the actual costs.
