PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
P & F Industries, Inc. (the "Company") conducts its business operations
through two wholly-owned subsidiaries. Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing
Corporation ("Florida Pneumatic") is engaged in the importation, manufacture and
sale of pneumatic hand tools, primarily for the industrial and retail markets,
and the importation and sale of compressor air filters. Florida Pneumatic also
markets, through its Berkley Tool division ("Berkley"), a line of pipe cutting
and threading tools, wrenches and replacement electrical components for a widely
used brand of pipe cutting and threading machines. Embassy Industries, Inc.
("Embassy") is engaged in the manufacture and sale of baseboard heating products
and the importation and sale of radiant heating systems. Embassy also imports a
line of door and window hardware items through its Franklin Hardware division
("Franklin"). Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements presents
financial information for the segments of the Company's business.
Florida Pneumatic has two major customers, Sears, Roebuck and Co. and W.W.
Grainger, Inc., who accounted for 45.1%, 37.4% and 31.4% and 9.1%, 10.8% and
10.8% of consolidated net sales for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and
1995, respectively.
FLORIDA PNEUMATIC
Florida Pneumatic imports or manufactures approximately fifty types of
pneumatic hand tools, most of which are sold at prices ranging from $50 to
$1,000, under the names "Florida Pneumatic", "Universal Tool" and "Fuji", as
well as under the trade names or trademarks of several private label customers.
The line of products includes sanders, grinders, drills, saws, impact wrenches,
nailers and staplers. The nailers and staplers were added to Florida Pneumatic's
product line in the fourth quarter of 1997. These tools are similar in
appearance and function to electric hand tools but are powered by compressed
air, rather than directly by electricity. Air tools, as they are also called,
are generally less expensive to operate, offer better performance and are
lighter in weight than their electrical counterparts.
Most of Florida Pneumatic's sales are of pneumatic tools imported from
Japan, along with sales of some products imported from Taiwan and mainland
China. Florida Pneumatic manufactures high speed rotary and reciprocating
pneumatic tools at its factory in Jupiter, Florida and imports air filters.
Products are sold to distributors, retailers and private label customers
through in-house sales personnel and manufacturers' representatives. Typical
users of Florida Pneumatic's hand tools include industrial maintenance and
production staffs, do-it-yourself mechanics, automobile mechanics and auto body
repairmen.
The primary competitive factors in the pneumatic tool market are price,
service and brand-name awareness.
Two customers accounted for 72.6%, 67.5% and 56.9 of Florida Pneumatic's
net sales in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Relationships with these
customers remain excellent.

<PAGE>
Berkley markets a product line consisting of pipe and bolt dies, pipe
taps, pipe and tubing cutter wheels, wrenches and replacement electrical
components for a widely used brand of pipe cutting and threading machines.
Florida Pneumatic markets Berkley's products through industrial distributors and
contractors.
Florida Pneumatic's products are sold off the shelf and no material
backlog of orders exists. The business is not seasonal, but it may be subject to
significant periodic changes resulting from occasional sales promotions by
customers.
Florida Pneumatic purchases significant amounts of pneumatic tools from
two foreign suppliers. Other sources are available. However, the loss of either
supplier could cause a temporary disruption in the flow of products, possibly
creating an adverse effect on operating results.
EMBASSY
Embassy's baseboard heating products are sold nationally under the Embassy
name and under its Panel-Track and System 6 trademarks, for use in hot-water
heating systems installed in single family homes, multi-unit dwellings and
commercial and industrial buildings. Products are sold principally to
wholesalers by manufacturers' representatives and in-house sales support
personnel. Embassy's products are also sold to other manufacturers for
incorporation into their products and for distribution on a private label basis.
Hot-water heating systems operate by heating water in a boiler and
circulating it through the copper tubing in the baseboard along the perimeter of
the space to be heated. Attached to the copper tubing are numerous
closely-spaced aluminum fins which dissipate the heat. Sections are two to ten
feet in length, project several inches from the wall and rise less than a foot
from the floor. These sections may be combined for longer installations.
Embassy's baseboard contains patented plastic tracks which ease handling and
reduce operating noise.
Embassy also imports a line of radiant heating systems. These systems are
different from baseboard heating systems in that the heating systems are
generally installed in floors and radiate heat provided by hot water circulating
in plastic tubing installed beneath the surface of the floor. These systems
include the tubing, manifolds, controls and installation supplies. Embassy also
provides computer software which aids in the design of the system. Sales of this
product accounted for 15.0% of Embassy's total heating equipment sales in 1997.
Baseboard and radiant heating systems compete with forced hot-air and
electric heating systems. Electric systems are generally more expensive to
operate. Forced hot-air systems are noisier, sometimes cause discomfort from
fluctuations in temperature as the furnace cycles on and off and do not
distribute warm air uniformly within the room. Hot-water systems are generally
more expensive to install. Accordingly, baseboard and radiant heating systems
are more widely used in custom and higher priced homes in colder sections of the
country. Since Embassy's products are primarily used in new installations, its
sales are related to housing starts.
Embassy's baseboard heating products are sold off the shelf and no
material backlog of orders exists. Raw materials are readily available. The
business is seasonal, with approximately 60.0% of Embassy's heating equipment
sales coming in the last six months of the year.
2
<PAGE>
The primary competitive factors in the baseboard and radiant heating
market are quality, price, service and brand-name awareness.
The Franklin division of Embassy imports and packages approximately 225
types of hardware products, including locksets, deadbolts, door and window
security hardware, rope-related hardware products and fire escape ladders.
Products generally range in price from under $1.00 to $30.00 and are sold to
retailers, wholesalers and private label accounts through manufacturers'
representatives and in-house sales support personnel. Nearly all of Franklin's
sales are of products imported from the Far East. Three customers accounted for
approximately 55.9% of Franklin's sales in 1997, with two of these customers
each doing approximately the same volume and accounting for approximately 45.4%.
The primary competitive factors in the hardware business are price,
service, skill in packaging and point-of-sale marketing.
Franklin's products are sold off the shelf and no material backlog of
orders exists. Sources of imported products are readily available. Franklin's
business is not seasonal.
EMPLOYEES
The Company employed approximately 164 persons as of December 31, 1997,
including 5 at corporate headquarters. The 83 employees of the pneumatic tool
operation are not represented by a union. Of the 76 persons employed in the
heating equipment and hardware operations, 50 factory workers are covered by a
single-employer union contract. The heating equipment union contract expires on
November 30, 1998. The Company believes that its relations with its employees
are satisfactory.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Embassy and Florida Pneumatic each own, subject to a mortgage, the plant
facilities which they occupy. Embassy's 75,000 square foot plant facility is
located in Farmingdale, New York. Florida Pneumatic's 72,000 square foot plant
facility is located in Jupiter, Florida. Each facility provides adequate space
for its operations in the foreseeable future. The Company's executive offices
are located in Embassy's facility in Farmingdale, New York.
The Company owned, subject to a mortgage, a 36,000 square foot building in
New Hyde Park, New York. This building was being leased to Triangle Sheet Metal
Works, Inc. ("Triangle"), a former subsidiary of the Company. In August 1997,
the Company sold this building to Triangle. Note 9(b) of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements presents additional information on the sale of
this building.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is not a party to any litigation that is expected to have a
material adverse effect on its business.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the last

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
1997 COMPARED TO 1996
Consolidated revenues increased 16.1%, from $43,078,371 to $50,026,947.
Revenues from pneumatic tools and related equipment increased 21.6%, from
$30,836,616 to $37,485,572. The increase in these revenues was due primarily to
the addition of a major new product line of pneumatic tools.
Heating equipment revenues increased 2.1%, from $8,171,330 to $8,342,996.
A 48.7% increase in sales of radiant heating products more than offset a
decrease of 3.3% in baseboard sales.
Hardware revenues increased 4.0%, from $4,033,686 to $4,196,351, due to
increased sales to existing customers.
Selling prices of all products were virtually unchanged during the year.
Consolidated gross profit, as a percentage of revenues, increased from
33.4% to 33.8%. Gross profit on pneumatic tools and related equipment increased
from 33.8% to 33.9%, due to a more favorable exchange rate of the dollar
compared to the Japanese yen, which reduced the cost of imported product and
which was offset by a less favorable product mix. Gross profit from heating
equipment increased from 34.7% to 36.8%, due to a more favorable product mix.
Gross profit from hardware decreased slightly, from 26.7% to 26.5%, due to a
less favorable product mix.
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses increased 15.1%,
from $9,839,976 to $11,321,691. The increase in absolute dollars expended is the
result of an increase in marketing and compensation program expenditures
necessary to achieve the substantial increase in sales and, to a lesser extent,
a strengthening of the Company's efforts in the new product development area. As
a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased
from 22.8% to 22.6%, due to the increase in revenues.
Interest expense decreased 8.0%, from $754,069 to $693,660, due to a
decrease in average loans outstanding.
The effective tax rates for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996
were 45.6% and 38.7%, respectively. See Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.

<PAGE>
1996 COMPARED TO 1995
Consolidated revenues were virtually unchanged, with an increase of less
than 1%, from $43,047,601 to $43,078,371. Revenues from pneumatic tools and
related equipment decreased 3.6%, from $31,989,783 to $30,836,616. The decrease
in these revenues was caused by the loss in late 1995 of one large customer, to
whom sales were approximately $1,688,000 in 1995, and by the one-time sale to a
new customer of approximately $2,337,000 in the fourth quarter of 1995.
Approximately 71% of the decrease in these revenues was offset by higher sales
to existing and new customers. Selling prices were approximately 1.3% higher in
1996 than in 1995.
Heating equipment revenues increased 8.5%, from $7,530,770 to $8,171,330.
Approximately half of the increase was due to increased sales of radiant heating
products. The balance was due to increased baseboard sales, aided by a 2%
increase in selling prices.
Hardware revenues increased 14.2%, from $3,531,783 to $4,033,686, due to
increased sales to existing customers. Hardware selling prices were unchanged
during the year.
Consolidated gross profit, as a percentage of revenues, increased from
32.6% to 33.4%. Gross profit on pneumatic tools and related equipment increased
from 32.6% to 33.8%, due to the increased selling prices and a more favorable
exchange rate of the dollar compared to the Japanese yen, which reduced the cost
of imported product. These improvements in gross profit were partially offset by
a less favorable product mix. Gross profit from heating equipment increased
slightly, from 34.3% to 34.7%. Higher selling prices essentially offset higher
material costs. Gross profit from hardware decreased from 29.4% to 26.7%, due to
a less favorable product mix.
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 2.2%,
from $10,056,193 to $9,839,976. Of the total decrease, $163,200 was attributable
to a charge against operations in 1995 for the amount paid for the cancellation
of options to purchase 192,000 shares of common stock. As a percentage of
revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 23.4% to
22.8%.
Interest expense decreased 26.2%, from $1,021,400 to $754,069, due to a
decrease in average loans outstanding.
The effective tax rates for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995
were 38.7% and 36.4%, respectively. See Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company gauges its liquidity and financial stability by the
measurements shown in the following table:
DECEMBER 31,
------------------------------
1997 1996 1995
---- ---- ----
(amounts in thousands, except for ratios)
Working Capital $17,060 $15,682 $15,838
Current Ratio 3.45 to 1 3.35 to 1 2.54 to 1
Shareholders' Equity $20,121 $19,382 $17,692
During 1997, accounts receivable increased by $1,889,009 as a result of a
37.3% increase in sales in the fourth quarter of 1997 as compared to 1996. Also
during 1997, inventories increased $2,262,630, due primarily to the addition, in
December, of a new line of air tools at Florida Pneumatic.
In August 1997, the Company sold the 36,000 square foot building it owned
in New Hyde Park, New York. This building was being leased to Triangle Sheet
Metal Works, Inc. ("Triangle"), a former subsidiary of the Company. The sale of
the building resulted in a gain of $542,837, net of income taxes totalling
$850,000. This gain is presented in the financial statements as income from
discontinued operation. The proceeds from the sale, approximately $1,766,000,
were used to pay the outstanding balance on the mortgage, approximately
$1,749,000. The due date of this mortgage was October 1997 and the balance
outstanding at December 31, 1996 was, therefore, classified as a current
liability.
During 1996, accounts receivable decreased by $2,990,170, from an
unusually high level of accounts receivable at December 31, 1995, including
approximately $2,337,000 from one-time sales to a customer in December 1995.
Also during 1996, inventories decreased $3,783,711. The funds provided by these
decreases in accounts receivable and inventories were used to pay down all of
the Company's short-term borrowings during the year. This decrease in short-term
borrowings of $4,233,753 contributed to the increase in the Company's current
ratio.
The Company's credit facility provides a line of credit totalling
$14,000,000 for direct loans, letters of credit and bankers' acceptances. At
December 31, 1997, there were no loans outstanding against this line of credit.
There was a commitment at December 31, 1997 of approximately $2,322,000 for
outstanding letters of credit. In addition, at December 31, 1997, approximately
$2,472,000 of the Company's credit facility was used to secure accounts payable.
The total line of credit includes $4,000,000 earmarked for acquisitions subject
to the lending bank's approval. The Company's credit facility also provides the
availability of up to $10,000,000 in foreign currency forward contracts. These
contracts fix the exchange rate on future purchases of Japanese yen needed for
payments to foreign suppliers. The total amount of foreign currency forward
contracts outstanding at December 31, 1997 was approximately $3,114,000.
The Company's credit facility agreement is subject to annual review by the
lending bank. Under this agreement, the Company is required to adhere to certain
financial covenants. At December 31, 1997, and for the year then ended, the
Company satisfied all of these covenants.
8
<PAGE>
The Company, through Florida Pneumatic, imports a significant amount of
its purchases from Japan, with payment due in Japanese yen. As a result, the
Company is subject to the effects of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The
Company uses a variety of techniques to protect itself from any adverse effects
from these fluctuations, including increasing its selling prices, obtaining
price reductions from its overseas suppliers, using alternative supplier sources
and entering into foreign currency forward contracts. Because of these steps
taken by the Company, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have not had a
significant negative effect on the Company's results of operations or its
financial position. Any future weakness of the dollar would again, however,
present a problem and there can be no certainty that the Company will continue
to be successful in its efforts to counter this problem.
Capital spending was approximately $652,000, $278,000 and $402,000 in
1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The total amount in each year was provided
from working capital. Capital expenditures for 1998 are expected to be
approximately $1,700,000, some of which may be financed. Included in this amount
are expenditures relating to new products as well as expenditures relating to
the replacement or upgrading of old equipment.
On January 30, 1998, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding 13.75%
Subordinated Debentures, due January 1, 2017, at 100% of the principal amount of
the Debentures, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The
funds used for this redemption, totalling $1,384,686, were derived from working
capital.
On January 30, 1997, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding $1.00
Cumulative Preferred Stock at the par value of $10 per share, plus an interim
dividend, through the redemption date, of $.083 per share. The funds used for
this redemption, totalling $2,655,308, were derived from working capital.
On March 31, 1995, Florida Pneumatic purchased the assets and business of
Intech Industries, Inc. ("Intech") for cash totalling $206,000. Intech was a
domestic manufacturer and importer of air filters used on air compressors. The
operations of Intech were merged with the operations of Florida Pneumatic.
On February 15, 1995, Florida Pneumatic purchased the assets and business
of Tradesman Tool Co., Inc. ("Tradesman") for cash totalling approximately
$547,000. Tradesman was a domestic manufacturer of heavy-duty pipe wrenches. The
operations of Tradesman were merged with the operations of Florida Pneumatic.
The Company continues to conduct an extensive acquisition search. The
funds for an acquisition will be provided by working capital and existing credit
facilities, including the $4,000,000 credit facility earmarked for acquisitions
referred to above.
The Company is currently determining the modifications required to ensure
that its management and information systems will be able to make the transition
to the year 2000. At this time, management expects that all such modifications
will be completed on a timely basis and that the costs of these modifications
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations,
financial position or liquidity.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income", establishes standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive
income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures,
Statement No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized
under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be
reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as
other financial statements.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", which supersedes Statement
No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise", establishes
standards for the reporting of certain information about operating segments by
public companies, in both annual and interim financial statements. Statement No.
131 defines an operating segment as a component of an enterprise for which
separate financial information is available and whose operating results are
reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about
resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance.
Statements No. 130 and 131 are both effective for financial statements
for periods beginning after December 15, 1997 and both require comparative
information for earlier years to be restated. The adoption of Statement No. 130
is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position
or results of operations. The adoption of Statement No. 131 will have no effect
on the Company's financial position or results of operations and the Company
is currently reviewing Statement No. 131 in order to fully evaluate the impact,
if any, the adoption of the provisions of this Statement will have on future
financial disclosures.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements contained herein include the
accounts of P & F Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"). All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The Company conducts its business operations through two wholly-owned
subsidiaries. Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation ("Florida Pneumatic")
is engaged in the importation, manufacture and sale of pneumatic hand tools,
primarily for the industrial and retail markets, and the importation and sale of
compressor air filters. Florida Pneumatic also markets, through its Berkley Tool
division ("Berkley"), a line of pipe cutting and threading tools, wrenches and
replacement electrical components for a widely used brand of pipe cutting and
threading machines. Embassy Industries, Inc. ("Embassy") is engaged in the
manufacture and sale of baseboard heating products and the importation and sale
of radiant heating systems. Embassy also imports a line of door and window
hardware items through its Franklin Hardware division ("Franklin"). Note 11 of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements presents financial information
for the segments of the Company's business.
BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and
short-term debt, approximated fair value as of December 31, 1997 and 1996,
because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying
value of long-term debt, including the current portion, approximated fair value
as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, based upon quoted market prices for the same
or similar debt issues.
At December 31, 1997, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts,
maturing in 1998, to purchase approximately $3,114,000 in Japanese yen at
contracted forward rates.
The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts as a hedge
against foreign accounts payable. At December 31, 1997, gains and losses on such
contracts were included in the measurement of the related foreign currency
transactions and reflected in the cost of sales. The Company does not hold or
issue financial instruments for trading purposes.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
by the first-in, first-out method.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION
Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method for financial
reporting and by the straight-line and accelerated methods for income tax
purposes. The estimated useful lives for financial reporting purposes are as
follows:
Buildings and improvements 10 - 30 years
Machinery and equipment 3 - 12 years
LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company reviews certain long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount may not be recoverable. In that regard, the Company assesses the
recoverability of such assets based upon estimated non-discounted cash flow
forecasts.
GOODWILL
The excess of the purchase price over fair value of net assets of acquired
businesses arises from business combinations accounted for as purchases and is
amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years.
The Company's operational policy for the assessment and measurement of any
impairment in the value of excess of cost over net assets acquired which is
other than temporary is to evaluate the recoverability and remaining life of its
goodwill and determine whether the goodwill should be completely or partially
written off or the amortization period accelerated. The Company will recognize
an impairment of goodwill if undiscounted estimated future operating cash flows
of the acquired businesses are determined to be less than the carrying amount of
goodwill. If the Company determines that goodwill has been impaired, the Company
will reflect the impairment through a reduction in the carrying value of
goodwill, in an amount equal to the excess of the carrying amount of the
goodwill over the amount of the undiscounted estimated operating cash flows.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
TAXES ON INCOME
P & F Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal
tax return and separate state and local tax returns.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases and any operating loss or tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of
any change in the tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes
the enactment date of such change.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 128, "Earnings per Share", which provides for the calculation of basic and
diluted earnings per share. Basic and diluted earnings per share replace the
previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary
earnings per share, basic earnings per share is based only on the average number
of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share
reflects, in periods for which they have a dilutive effect, the effect of common
shares issuable upon the exercise of options, warrants and convertible
securities and is very similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Earnings per
share amounts for all periods have been presented and the amounts for prior
periods have been restated to comply with the provisions of Statement No. 128.
Diluted earnings per share is computed using the treasury stock method.
Under this method, the aggregate number of shares outstanding reflects the
assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding
options or warrants to repurchase shares of common stock. The average market
value for the period is used to calculate the repurchase price.
Net income or loss is adjusted for preferred dividends in computing the
net income or loss attributable to the common stock.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income", establishes standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive
income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures,
Statement No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized
under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be
reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as
other financial statements.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", which supersedes Statement
No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise", establishes
standards for the reporting of certain information about operating segments by
public companies, in both annual and interim financial statements. Statement No.
131 defines an operating segment as a component of an enterprise for which
separate financial information is available and whose operating results are
reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions about
resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance.
Statements No. 130 and 131 are both effective for financial statements
for periods beginning after December 15, 1997 and both require comparative
information for earlier years to be restated. The adoption of Statement No. 130
is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position
or results of operations. The adoption of Statement No. 131 will have no effect
on the Company's financial position or results of operations and the Company
is currently reviewing Statement No. 131 in order to fully evaluate the impact,
if any, the adoption of the provisions of this Statement will have on future
financial disclosures.

NOTE 3 - SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS
The Company's credit facility provides a line of credit totalling
$14,000,000 available for direct loans, letters of credit and bankers'
acceptances. At December 31, 1997, there were no loans outstanding against this
line of credit. There was a commitment at December 31, 1997 of approximately
$2,322,000 for outstanding letters of credit. In addition, at December 31, 1997,
approximately $2,472,000 of the Company's credit facility was used to secure
accounts payable. The total line of credit includes $4,000,000 earmarked for
acquisitions subject to the lending bank's approval. The Company's credit
facility also provides the availability of up to $10,000,000 in foreign currency
forward contracts. These contracts fix the exchange rate on future purchases of
Japanese yen needed for payments to foreign suppliers. The total amount of
foreign currency forward contracts outstanding at December 31, 1997 was
approximately $3,114,000.
Borrowings under the Company's line of credit bear interest at
approximately the prime rate. The prime interest rate at December 31, 1997 was
8.5%. These borrowings are secured by the accounts receivable, inventory and
equipment of the Company and are cross-guaranteed by the parent company and each
of the subsidiaries.
The Company's credit facility agreement is subject to annual review by the
lending bank. Under this agreement, the Company is required to adhere to certain
financial covenants. At December 31, 1997, and for the year then ended, the
Company satisfied all of these covenants.

NOTE 6 - CAPITAL STOCK TRANSACTIONS
The Company's preferred stock paid quarterly dividends at the rate of 10%
per annum. On January 30, 1997, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding
shares of its $1.00 Cumulative Preferred Stock at the par value of $10 per
share, plus an interim dividend, through the redemption date, of $.083 per
share.
In 1994, in connection with its Stockholder Rights Plan, the Company
entered into a Rights Agreement (as amended) and distributed as a dividend to
each holder of Class A Common Stock a preferred stock purchase right. These
rights entitle the stockholders, in certain circumstances, to purchase one
one-thousandth of a share of the Company's Series A Junior Participating
Preferred Stock for $10. The Stockholder Rights Plan is intended to protect,
among other things, the interests of the Company's stockholders in the event the
Company is confronted with coercive or unfair takeover tactics.
NOTE 7 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
In 1992, the Company adopted its Incentive Stock Option Plan (as amended)
(the "Plan"), which authorizes the issuance, to employees and directors, of
options to purchase a maximum of 1,100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. These
options must be issued within ten years of the effective date of the plan and
are exercisable for a ten year period from the date of grant at prices not less
than 100% of the market value of the common stock on the date the option is
granted. Options granted to any 10% shareholder are exercisable for a five year
period from the date of the grant at prices not less than 110% of the market
value of the common stock on the date the option is granted.
The Company applies the Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related Interpretations in
accounting for the incentive stock option plan. Under APB Opinion 25, no
compensation cost is recognized if the exercise price of the Company's employee
stock options is equal to or greater than the market price of the underlying
stock on the date of the grant.
Statement No. 123 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation", requires the Company to provide pro forma
information regarding net income and earnings per share as if compensation cost
for the Company's stock option plan had been determined in accordance with the
fair value method prescribed by Statement No. 123. The Company estimates the
fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for options
granted in 1997 and 1995, respectively: no dividends paid for either year;
expected volatility of 34.5% and 34.5%; risk-free interest rates of 6.6% and
5.5%; and expected lives of 4.0 years and 7.1 years. There were no options
granted in 1996.
The weighted-average fair value of options for which the exercise price
equaled the market price on the grant date was $2.83 in 1997. The
weighted-average fair value of options for which the exercise price exceeded the
market price on the grant date was $1.98 in 1997 and $.75 in 1995.

NOTE 9 - ACQUISITIONS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
(a) Acquisitions
During the first quarter of 1995, Florida Pneumatic purchased the assets
of Tradesman Tool Co., Inc. ("Tradesman") and Intech Industries, Inc.
("Intech") for cash totalling approximately $753,000. The operations of both
Tradesman and Intech were merged into the operations of Florida Pneumatic.
Neither of these acquisitions was material to the consolidated financial
statements.
(b) Discontinued operations
In 1994, the Company sold substantially all of the assets and liabilities
of Triangle Sheet Metal Works, Inc. ("Triangle"), its sheet metal contracting
subsidiary. The assets sold did not include Triangle's land, building and
building improvements. As part of the sale agreement, the Company leased this
building to its former subsidiary.
In August 1997, the Company sold the land and building to Triangle, for
approximately $1,766,000. The Company realized a gain on the sale of $542,837,
net of income taxes totalling $850,000.
NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
(a) The Company and its subsidiaries lease equipment under operating
leases through 2000 for approximate minimum annual rentals as follows: 1998 -
$55,000; 1999 - $33,000 and 2000 - $7,000.
Rental expense for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was
approximately $71,000, $68,000 and $88,000, respectively.
(b) The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted a defined contribution
pension plan, which covers substantially all non-union employees. Contributions
to this plan were determined as a percentage of compensation. The amounts
recognized as pension expense for this plan were approximately $258,000,
$218,000 and $229,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
One of the Company's subsidiaries also participates in a multi-employer
pension plan. This plan provides defined benefits to all union workers.
Contributions to this plan are determined by union contracts and the Company
does not administer or control the funds in any way. The amounts recognized as
pension expense for this plan were approximately $29,000, $28,000 and $28,000
for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

(c) The Company has employment agreements with two officers. These
agreements currently provide for minimum annual aggregate salaries of $805,000
through September 1998 and $499,000 through February 2004. These two agreements
stipulate that if a change in control of the Company occurs and, as a result,
the officers are terminated or are unable to exercise their functions and duties
and therefore resign, they shall have the option to receive either full
compensation for the remaining term of the agreement or a severance allowance
equal to three times average annual compensation for the five previous years.
(d) The Company has a consulting agreement with its former Chairman of the
Board. This agreement currently provides for annual consulting fees of $200,000
through October 1998.
(e) Florida Pneumatic purchases significant amounts of pneumatic tools
from two foreign suppliers. Other sources are available. However, the loss of
either supplier could cause a temporary disruption in the flow of products,
possibly creating an adverse effect on operating results.
