                                     PART I

Item 1. Business.

     (a) General Development of Business.

     The Registrant, a Delaware corporation, was incorporated in 1942. The
primary businesses of the Registrant are:

        (i) The development, manufacture, and sale of PEM(R) self-clinching and
broaching fasteners, inserts for plastic, and automatic insertion equipment for
such fasteners sold under the name PEMSERTER(R); and

        (ii) The development, manufacture, and sale through the Registrant's
Pittman division of permanent magnet field, brush-commutated dc electric motors
under the Pittman(R) and Pitmo(R) trademarks, and electronically commutated
brushless dc servomotors under the Elcom(R) trademark.

     (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments.

     The answer to this Item is incorporated by reference to Note 13 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements "Financial Reporting for Segments of
the Registrant" on pages 22 and 23 of the Registrant's 1998 Annual Report to
Stockholders which is included as Exhibit (13) to this Form 10-K Report.

     (c) Narrative Description of Business.

     The Registrant is the world's leading manufacturer of self-clinching
fasteners used by the computer, data communications, telecommunications, general
electronics, automotive, and avionics industries. PEM self-clinching fasteners,
which accounted for approximately 82% of the Registrant's sales in 1998, were
first developed by the Registrant's founder in 1942. Self-clinching fasteners
become an integral part of the material in which they are installed and provide
a reliable means of attaching components to sheet metal or plastic. Typical
applications for the Registrant's fastener products include personal computers,
computer cabinetry, power supplies, instrumentation, telecommunications
equipment, and certain automobile parts, such as air bags and windshield wipers.
The Registrant's Pittman division manufacturers high performance permanent
magnet dc motors used in electronics, medical, and manufacturing applications.

     The Registrant's fasteners are primarily used by sheet metal fabricators
which utilize the Registrant's fasteners to produce sub-assemblies for original
equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"). Both OEMs and their subcontractors seek
fastening solutions which provide lower total installed cost and are highly
reliable, thereby lowering production and service costs. The Registrant's
application engineers and independent distributors continually work in close
collaboration with OEMs and their subcontractors to determine appropriate
fastener applications, which often results in OEMs specifying the Registrant's
fasteners. Self-cinching fasteners generally


                                      -1-
<PAGE>

compete against loose hardware, such as nuts and bolts. The Registrant's
fasteners typically sell at a premium to loose hardware. However, the
Registrant's fasteners generally result in lower overall manufacturing costs for
the end user.

     The Company also manufactures and sells manual and automated
presses for fastener installation under the PEMSERTER trademark. The rapid and
accurate installation provided by PEMSERTER presses, together with the Company's
broad range of fastener products, provides the Company's customers with a
complete fastening system.

     The Registrant's Pittman division produces high-quality, high-performance,
permanent magnet dc motors used in light-weight precision applications such as
archival storage, printing, copying, robotics, and medical diagnostic equipment
and centrifuges. Pittman's broad range of products are typically adapted to the
specific requirements of individual customers.

     The manufacture and sale of (i) self-clinching and broaching fasteners and
inserts for plastic and (ii) dc motors are the Registrant's only lines of
business. The following table sets forth information with respect to the
percentage of total sales attributable to each of the Registrant's principal
products which accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenues in each of the
fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998:

                                    Percentage of Total Sales   
                                    -------------------------

           December 31,             Fasteners           Motors 
           ------------             ---------           ------ 
               1996                   82%                 18%
               1997                   81%                 19%
               1998                   82%                 18%

     The Company's fastener products are sold through a worldwide network of
approximately 40 authorized distributors located in 34 countries and the
Company's own subsidiaries in Singapore and England. Many of the independent
distributors and engineering representative organizations have been affiliated
with the Company for more than 20 years. The Company's independent distributors,
which maintain their own inventories of the Company's products, typically sell
other complimentary industrial components. The Company's return allowances,
which are made through the exchange of inventory, have generally averaged less
than 1% of sales. The Company's engineers work in collaboration with individual
manufacturers early in the design process to engineer fastening solutions that
often result in the specification of PEM fasteners in new products. The Company
supplies its customers and distributors through warehouses in Doncaster, England
and Singapore, in addition to maintaining an inventory at its Danboro,
Pennsylvania facility.

     Domestic and European sales of Pittman motors are handled by independent
sales representatives.



                                      -2-
<PAGE>

     During the year ended December 31, 1998, conditions in the domestic market
for fasteners continued to be highly competitive. It is not possible to
determine with accuracy the relative competitive position of the Registrant in
the market for self-clinching, broaching, and insert fasteners. The Registrant
believes that it has maintained its market share during 1998. Approximately ten
other companies are known to be competing with the Registrant in the manufacture
and sale of such fasteners, some of which also manufacture products other than
self-clinching, broaching, and insert fasteners.

     The Registrant also believes its Pittman division maintained its
competitive position in the dc motor market in 1998.

     Among the Registrant's principal customers for fasteners and PEMSERTERS(R)
are manufacturers of business machines, personal computers and computer
peripherals, electronic and communications equipment, electrical equipment,
industrial controls instrumentation, vending machines, automotive
subcontractors, and other fabricated metal products. The principal customers for
the dc motors and servomotors are manufacturers of automated production
equipment, instruments, computer peripherals, business machines, and medical
equipment. In the opinion of the Registrant, no material part of its business is
dependent upon a single customer or a few customers, the loss of any one or more
of which would have a material adverse effect on the business of the Registrant.
However, sales of fasteners to one of the Registrant's authorized distributors
totaled approximately $21,830,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996,
$20,687,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997, and $21,060,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1998, or approximately 13.6%, 12.3%, and 11.7%, respectively,
of the Registrant's consolidated net sales in such years. Sales of fasteners to
another of the Registrant's authorized distributors totaled approximately
$19,827,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $22,885,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1998, or approximately 11.8% and 12.7%, respectively, of the
Registrant's consolidated net sales during such years.

     As of December 31, 1998, the Registrant had an order backlog of $45,105,000
compared with $57,249,000 as of December 31, 1997. The Registrant estimates that
substantially all of its backlog as of December 31, 1998 will be shipped during
its fiscal year ending December 31, 1999.

     The raw materials used by the Registrant are generally available in
adequate supply.

     The Registrant holds a number of patents and trademarks, and has patent
applications pending, in the United States and various foreign countries.
Management believes, however, that the Registrant's business is not materially
dependent on any patent or group of patents. The principal trademarks of the
Registrant are registered in the United States and various foreign countries.

     Research and development is carried on by the operating personnel of the
Registrant on a continuing basis. The amounts expended for research and
development for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, 1997, and 1998 were
approximately $1,520,000, $2,944,000, and $3,410,0000, respectively.



                                      -3-
<PAGE>

     The Registrant believes that compliance with federal, state, and local laws
and regulations that have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of
materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the
environment, will not have a material adverse effect upon the earnings or
competitive position of the Registrant.

     As of December 31, 1998, 1,423 persons were employed by the Registrant, 55
more than were employed as of December 31, 1997. None of the Company's personnel
are governed by collective bargaining agreements. The Company believes that its
labor rates are comparable to those of its competitors and that the Company's
relations with its employees are good. The Registrant does not consider its
business to be seasonal in any material respect, nor is any material portion of
the Registrant's business subject to the renegotiation of profits or termination
of contracts at the election of the Government.

     (d)  Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic
          Operations and Export Sales.

     The answer to this Item is incorporated by reference to Note 13 "Financial
Reporting for Segments of the Company" on pages 22 and 23 of the Registrant's
1998 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is included as Exhibit (13) to this
Form 10-K. Also, all foreign sales except for those of PEM International, Ltd.
and PEM International (Singapore) Pte Ltd. are sold F.O.B., the Registrant's
factory, payable in U.S. dollars. Sales in the United Kingdom and Western Europe
are made through the Registrant's wholly owned subsidiary, PEM International,
Ltd., and are denominated in pounds sterling. Sales in the Pacific Rim are made
through the Registrant's wholly owned subsidiary, PEM International (Singapore)
Pte Ltd., and are denominated in Singapore dollars. All foreign sales are
subject to special risks of exchange controls and restrictions on the
repatriation of funds and also may be affected by the imposition or increase of
taxes and/or tariffs and international instability.

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related
        Stockholder Matters.

     The Registrant's Common Stock (non-voting), par value $0.01, is traded on
the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "PNN." The Registrant's Class A
Common Stock (voting), par value $0.01, is traded on the New York Stock Exchange
under the symbol "PNNA." As of March 25, 1999, there were 571 holders of record
of the Registrant's Common Stock and 441 holders of record of the Registrant's

     The answer to this Item is incorporated by reference to pages 10 through 14
of the Registrant's 1998 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is included as
Exhibit (13) to this Form 10-K Report.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

     The Registrant=s earnings and cash flow are subject to fluctuations due to
changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Registrant manages its exposures
to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on certain firm sales commitments
and anticipated, but not yet committed sales, by entering into foreign currency
forward contracts and foreign currency option contracts, respectively. The
Registrant=s risk management objective is to reduce its exposure to the effect
of changes in exchange rates on sales revenue over quarterly time horizons. To a
certain extent, foreign currency rate movements also affect the Registrant=s
competitive position, as exchange rate changes may affect business practices
and/or pricing strategies of non-U.S. based competitors. The Registrant=s
foreign currency risk policies entail entering into foreign currency derivative
instruments only to manage risk, not for speculative investments.

     Annually, financial officers approve the Registrant=s outlook for expected
currency exchange rate movements, as well as the policy on desired future
foreign currency cash flow positions (long, short, balanced) for those
currencies where there is significant activity. Financial officers receive a
daily report on open foreign currency hedges. Expected future cash flow
positions and strategies are continuously monitored. Foreign exchange management
practices,

including the use of derivative financial instruments, are presented to the
Audit Committee of the Registrant=s Board of Directors at least annually.

     Considering both the anticipated cash flows from firm sales commitments
plus anticipated sales for the next quarter and the foreign currency derivative
instruments in place at year end, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S.
dollar relative to all other currencies would not materially adversely affect
expected 1999 earnings or cash flows. This analysis is dependent on actual
export sales during the next quarter occurring within 90% of the budgeted
forecasts. The effect of the hypothetical change in exchange rates ignores the
effect that this movement may have on other variables including competitive
risk. If it were possible to quantify this competitive impact, the results could
well be different than the sensitivity effect shown above. In addition, it is
unlikely that all currencies would uniformly strengthen or weaken relative to
the U.S. Dollar. In reality, some currencies may weaken while others strengthen.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL
CONDITION 
December 31, 1998


OVERVIEW
The Company's operations consists of two business segments: the manufacture and
sale of PEM(R) brand self-clinching fasteners, including PEMSERTER(R) fastener
insertion machines, and Pittman(R) dc motors. Self-clinching fasteners, which
accounted for 81.8% of the Company's consolidated net sales in 1998 compared to
81.0% in 1997 and 81.5% in 1996, are marketed through a worldwide network of
independent authorized distributors and two Company-owned distributors. In 1998,
sales to the computer/electronics and automotive industries accounted for
approximately 81% and 7% of fastener sales, respectively, with the balance
distributed among other industries.
      Motors accounted for 18.2% of the Company's consolidated net sales in 1998
compared to 19.0% in 1997 and 18.5% in 1996, and are marketed in North America
and Europe through independent sales representatives. The Company primarily
designs and manufactures its motors on a custom basis. End users of the
Company's motors include manufacturers of computer and electronics equipment,
medical equipment, and industrial equipment. The Company's motor segment
consists of brush-commutated motors and longer lasting brushless motors.
Brushless motors are generally higher priced units with higher profit margins,
versus the brush motors, which are lower priced and carry a lower margin, but
generate higher sales volume.
      The number of fastener units shipped from the Company's manufacturing
facilities to all customers, including independent and Company-owned
distributors, increased 11.7% from 1.96 billion in 1997, to 2.19 billion in 1998
after having decreased 3% in 1997 from 2.03 billion in 1996. The increase in
1998 was a result of a strong European economy as well as increased fabrication
activity in the Asia-Pacific region as customers shifted production to that
region to take advantage of currency devaluations. The decrease in 1997 was
primarily caused by independent distributors selling from excess inventory
accumulated in prior years. As a result of this, distributor demand on the
Company was lessened in 1997.
      In 1998, 1997, and 1996, sales to domestic customers accounted for 70.0%,
73.7%, and 74.6%, respectively, of the Company's consolidated net sales. During
the same periods, foreign sales accounted for 30.0%, 26.3%, and 25.4%
respectively, of the Company's consolidated net sales. The Company's export
sales have benefited from the Company's ability to serve large multi-national
computer and electronic manufacturers who have moved some of their product
fabrication offshore. The Company has maintained significant distribution
channels and inventories in Europe and the Pacific Rim for more than 27 years
and 12 years, respectively.

YEAR 2000 ("Y2K")
The following information is considered a Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure in
accordance with Section 7(B) of the Year 2000 Information and Readiness
Disclosure Act. 
      Many companies are currently in the process of determining what corrective
measures, if any, need to be taken in order to ensure that their computer
systems will not be disrupted by the Year 2000 problem. The problem is one where
many computer systems in use today have codes programmed to read dates as two
digits. The issue becomes a problem if the computer system recognizes the
designation "00" as 1900 when it should be 2000, possibly resulting in
processing failures or errors
      We at Penn Engineering are well underway towards having all critical
systems and products Year 2000 ("Y2K") compliant before September 30, 1999. The
Company defines Y2K compliance as delivering a product that functions accurately
and without interruption before, on, and after 1/1/2000. Compliance also means
that the Company's internal systems will continue to accurately process date and
time data (including but not limited to, calculation, comparing, and sequencing)
from, into, and between the 20th and 21st centuries, the years 1999 and 2000,
and perform the leap year calculation.
      The Company has completed an inventory of internal computer and
information systems, manufacturing and delivery equipment, and facilities
equipment. We have made a reasonable assessment of those areas we believe to be
inherently Y2K compliant, those areas that are not compliant, and those areas
that need further investigation. In connection with our Y2K program our
mainframe computer system has been updated so that we believe system functions
relating to critical operations such as accounting, order entry, inventory,
production, shipping and billing are Y2K compliant. The Company is currently
testing, and will continue to test throughout 1999, these systems to ensure that
they process date/time data accurately between the 20th and 21st centuries, the
years 1999 and 2000, and perform the leap year calculation.
      We have identified other areas, including our overseas systems, where Y2K
compliance programs have been implemented, which we believe are Y2K compliant.
      Our Y2K program seeks to address the Y2K activities of our suppliers,
service providers, distributors, and other business relationships. We are in the
process of surveying our business partners. As of this date we have completed
approximately 75% of this process. It is our intention to complete this process
by September 30, 1999.
      During 1998 we began the process of testing all internal personal
computers, file servers, networking equipment, and all information technology
support equipment to determine their Y2K readiness. The process includes
replacing equipment that does not meet Y2K readiness standards. As of this date
we have completed approximately 90% of this process. It is our goal to complete
this phase by June 30, 1999. We are also surveying all manufacturing, testing,
and production support equipment to determine if Y2K is applicable. Where it is
determined that Y2K could be a potential problem, the Company is seeking
certification from manufacturers that their equipment will be able to process
date and time data from, into, and between the 20th and 21st centuries, the
years 1999 and 2000, and the leap year calculation. As of this date we have
completed approximately 80% of this phase. It is our goal to complete this phase
by June 30, 1999.
      Y2K is not applicable to our self-clinching fastener products. We either
have or are manufacturing PEMSERTER insertion products, Series 100, 500, 1000,
and 2000 machines that utilize Programmable Logic Chips (PLC). We have confirmed
with the manufacturers that the PLCs used in the aforementioned PEMSERTER
insertion machines do not have date/time functionality and therefore Y2K is not
applicable. The Company's Pittman Division manufactures a line of motors that
utilize encoders, some of which may have date/time functionality, which in turn


                                       10

may have Y2K implications. The Company has confirmed with the manufacturers that
the encoders used with Pittman motors do not have date/time functionality, and
therefore Y2K is not applicable.
      Many of the factors that influence the sources for Year 2000 compliance
programs are beyond the control of Penn Engineering. These factors include
availability of vendor compliant products, interface system partner compliance,
government activity, and suppliers in areas such as utilities, communications,
transportation, and other services. Because of the interconnectedness of the
Year 2000 situation, Penn Engineering cannot realistically offer any
certifications, representations, or guarantees of total Y2K compliance.
Nevertheless, Penn Engineering has devoted substantial resources and money to
the problem.
      Total Y2K expenditures are expected to exceed $1.0 million, of which
approximately 65% was spent by the end of 1998. The balance is expected to be
spent in 1999. These costs are the Company's best estimates based on internal
and external efforts to identify Y2K issues critical to the production and
delivery of the Company's products. Actual results could differ from those
anticipated.

</TABLE>

Year Ended December 31, 1998 vs. Year Ended
December 31, 1997
Consolidated net sales for 1998 were $179.7 million, versus $167.7 million in
1997, a 7.2% increase. This growth in sales was largely the result of the
continued growth in the personal computer and automotive markets, especially in
the European and Asia-Pacific regions. Sales to customers outside the United
States for 1998 increased 21.9% to $53.9 million, from $44.2 million in 1997.
Net sales for the fastener operation for 1998 were $146.9 million, versus $135.8
million in 1997, an 8.2% increase. Motor sales in 1998 increased 2.8% to $32.8
million from $31.9 million in 1997.
      The Company's average selling price for fasteners shipped to global OEM
direct customers and its independent distribution network in 1998 was $63.96 per
thousand, compared to $65.15 per thousand in 1997, a decrease of 1.8%. This
decrease is mainly due to a change in product mix toward lower priced fasteners
as inventory levels at distributors are once again replenished.
      The number of fasteners sold to the Company's global OEM direct customers
and its independent distribution network increased approximately 10.1% from 1997
to 1998. The number of fasteners sold within North America, 68.8% of total
fasteners sold in 1998, increased 4.9% from 1997 to 1998 as distributor
inventory levels stabilized in 1998 and there was a return to a more normal
ordering pattern. The number of fasteners sold to Europe, approximately 24.5% of
total fasteners sold in 1998, increased 21.7% from 1997 to 1998. This increase
is mainly due to continued strong point-of-sale demand for personal computers,
network servers, and automotive products. The number of fasteners sold to the
Asia-Pacific market, approximately 6.7% of total fasteners sold in 1998,
increased 31.7% from 1997 to 1998. Much of this growth was due to the shifting
of production to this area to take advantage of the currency devaluation which
occurred in the region during the latter half of 1997 and early 1998. This
allowed major computer manufacturers to lower the selling price of products
shipped back to the United States.
      The average selling price of motors increased approximately 3.9% to $42.16
per motor in 1998 from $40.58 per motor in 1997. The number of motors sold
decreased approximately 1.0% to 776,952 in 1998 from 785,052 in 1997.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL
CONDITION 
December 31, 1998 (continued)

      Consolidated gross profit was $55.2 million in 1998, versus $52.3 million
in 1997, a 5.5% increase. Fastener gross profit increased 7.0% to $46.9 million
in 1998 from $43.8 million in 1997 mainly as a result of increased sales volume.
Motor gross profit decreased 1.2% to $8.4 million in 1998 from $8.5 million in
1997.
      Consolidated selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for
1998 were $32.8 million, versus $30.6 million for 1997, a 7.2% increase.
Additional expenses were incurred in 1998 due to changes in the Company's
executive management structure, increased technology related expenditures
including Year 2000 related expenses, and other outside professional expenses
related to the Company's foreign operations.
      Consolidated net income for 1998 was $16.6 million, versus $14.5 million
for 1997. Other income, which includes investment income and realized currency
translation gains, increased to $1.8 million in 1998 from $1.2 million in 1997.
Consolidated net income was favorably impacted by a reduction in the Company's
effective tax rate from 36.7% in 1997 to 31.5% in 1998. This decrease was due
primarily to the increased benefits of the Foreign Sales Corporation.

Year Ended December 31, 1997 vs. Year Ended December 31, 1996

Consolidated net sales for 1997 were $167.7 million, versus $160.3 million in
1996, a 4.6% increase. This growth in sales was largely the result of the growth
of the personal computer, network servers, and automotive markets. Sales to
customers outside the United States for 1997 increased 8.6% to $44.2 million,
from $40.7 million in 1996. Net sales for the fastener operation for 1997 were
$135.8 million, versus $130.7 million in 1996, a 3.9% increase. Motor sales in
1997 increased 7.8% to $31.9 million from $29.6 million in 1996.
      The Company's average selling price for fasteners shipped to global OEM
direct customers and its independent distribution network in 1997 was $65.15 per
thousand, compared to $62.68 per thousand in 1996, an increase of 3.9%. This
increase is mainly due to an approximate 4.0% price increase that was effective
as of April 1, 1997.
      The number of fasteners sold to the Company's global OEM direct customers
and its independent distribution network decreased approximately 0.7% from 1996
to 1997. The number of fasteners sold within North America, 71.5% of total
fasteners sold in 1997, decreased 4.6% from 1996 to 1997. This decrease is
mainly due to adjustments in distributor inventory levels which were unusually
high during the latter part of 1996 and early 1997. The number of fasteners sold
to Europe, approximately 22.9% of total fasteners sold in 1997, increased 14.1%
from 1996 to 1997. The increase in this market was due to strong point-of-sale
demand throughout all four quarters of 1997 as opposed to 1996 when
point-of-sale demand trended downward in the latter part of the year. The number
of fasteners sold into the Asia-Pacific market, approximately 5.6% of total
fasteners sold in 1997, decreased 1.5% from 1996 to 1997. Sales in this region
were affected by the currency fluctuations and other economic problems
experienced in the area during the last half of 1997.
      The average selling price of motors increased approximately 0.7% to $40.58
per motor in 1997 from $40.29 per motor in 1996. The number of motors sold
increased approximately 6.9% to 785,052 in 1997 from 734,741 in 1996.
      Consolidated gross profit was $52.3 million in 1997, versus $49.3 million
in 1996, a 6.1% increase. Fastener gross profit increased 5.3% to $43.8 million
in 1997 from $41.6 million in 1996 mainly as a result of a change in product mix
and a continuing emphasis on manufacturing cost control. As a percent of sales,
fastener gross profit increased to 32.2% in 1997 from 31.8% in 1996. This
increase was achieved even though the fastener operation incurred one-time
expenses, approximately $500,000, associated with the moving of equipment into a
new manufacturing facility in Winston-Salem.
      Motor gross profit increased 10.4% to $8.5 million in 1997 from $7.7
million in 1996 due to increased sales volume. Motor gross profit margins
increased to 26.8% in 1997 from 26.1% in 1996 also due to increased sales
volume.
      Consolidated selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for
1997 were $30.6 million, versus $28.2 million for 1996, an 8.5% increase. SG&A,
as a percent of sales, increased from 17.6% in 1996 to 18.3% in 1997. The
increase was caused by additional commission expense due to continued strong
end-customer demand, additional SG&A staff, and Singapore distribution center
expenses for an entire year.
      Consolidated net income for 1997 was $14.5 million, versus $13.9 million
for 1996. Other income, which includes investment income and realized currency
translation gains, increased to $1.2 million in 1997 from $1.0 million in 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity needs for the year ended December 31, 1998
consisted primarily of $8.3 million of capital expenditures to expand the
Company's manufacturing equipment and payment of $3.9 million of dividends. The
Company's primary source of cash in 1998 and 1997 came from operations.
      At December 31, 1998, the Company also had $22.5 million available under
its short-term lines of credit. Working capital increased to $73.7 million in
1998 from $60.4 million in 1997 primarily due to the increase in inventories
needed to support the Company's present and future growth. Working capital
decreased from $64.2 million in 1996 to $60.4 million in 1997 due to the
increase in accounts payable needed to finance capital expenditures and a
decrease in accounts receivable as a result of a 7.7% decrease in receivable
days outstanding from December 31, 1996 to December 31, 1997.
      The Company anticipates that its existing capital resources and cash flow
generated from future operations will enable it to maintain its current level of
operations and its planned growth for the foreseeable future.
      Stockholders' equity per share at the end of 1998 was $16.45 compared to
$14.88 at year-end 1997 and $15.63 at year-end 1996.

Bonds and commercial paper investments are classified as Held-to-Maturity as the
Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity.
Bonds are stated at amortized cost. Securities not classified as
Held-to-Maturity have been classified as Available-for-Sale. Available-for-Sale
securities are stated at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported
as a separate component of other comprehensive income. The fair value of all
securities is determined based upon the current value quoted on public
exchanges. Investments are classified as short-term if the maturities at
December 31 are less than one year.

Inventories
The Company's domestic fastener inventories, are priced
on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method, at the lower of cost or market. Other
inventories, representing approximately 59% and 67% of total inventories at
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, are priced on the first-in, first-out
(FIFO) method, at the lower of cost or market.

Property
Depreciation is calculated under the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the respective assets, generally 3-5 years for tooling and
computer equipment, 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and machinery, and 25-40
years for buildings. Maintenance and repairs are charged to income and major
renewals and betterments are capitalized. At the time properties are retired or
sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated and any gain
or loss is included in income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on
deposit, cash in excess of daily requirements which is invested in overnight
repurchase agreements, and other interest bearing accounts withdrawable on a
daily basis.

Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred.

Foreign Currency Translation 
The effect of translating the financial statements
of PEM International Ltd. and PEM International Singapore Pte. Ltd. is recorded
as a separate component of other comprehensive income in the consolidated
financial statements. All assets and liabilities are translated at the year-end
exchange rate while all income and expense accounts are translated at the
weighted average rate for the year.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Fair values of cash equivalents, short-term investments, trade receivables, and
payables approximate their carrying value. The estimated fair values of other
financial instruments have been determined using available market information
and valuation methodologies. These estimates require considerable judgment in
interpreting market data, and changes in assumptions or estimation methods may
significantly affect the fair value estimates.

Capital Stock
The Company's capital stock consists of $.01 par value
Class A Common Stock and $.01 par value Common Stock. Holders of Class A Common
Stock have one vote per share, while holders of Common Stock have no votes. All
other rights of the Class A Common Stock and Common Stock, including rights with
respect to stock splits, the consideration payable in a merger or consolidation,
and distribution upon liquidation, are the same.

Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenues are recorded at the time the products are shipped.

Accounting for Stock Options
The Company follows Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") and related interpretations in accounting
for stock options. Under APB 25, if the exercise price of stock options granted
equals the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, no
compensation expense is recognized. Note 6 to these consolidated financial
statements includes the disclosures and pro forma information required by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123").

Net Income Per Share
Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated in accordance with the FASB
Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic earnings per share is calculated
by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding for the year
and diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted average shares outstanding for the year plus the dilutive effect of
stock options.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," and SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS 130 establishes standards for the
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in financial
statements. Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus other
comprehensive income which, for the Company, consists of changes in the
unrealized investment reserve and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the
requirements of SFAS 130. The adoption of SFAS 130 had no affect on the results
of operations or financial position.
      SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way public companies report
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires
those companies to report selected information about operating segments in
interim financial reports. SFAS 131 also establishes standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers.
The adoption of SFAS 131 had no effect on the results of operations or financial
position.
      In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," effective in the first quarter of 2000. The
Statement will require the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance
sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair
value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of
the hedge, changes in fair value of the derivative will either be offset against
the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments
through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged
item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change
in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 133 on the earnings and financial
position of the Company.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts and balances to
conform with the 1998 presentation.

                                            ==================

      If the FIFO method of inventory valuation had been used for all
inventories by the Company, inventories at December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996
would have been $9,046,000, $8,704,000, and $8,117,000 higher.
      In 1996, the Company changed the method of calculating its domestic
fastener LIFO inventory from the unit cost method to the components of cost
method. Management believes that this change in its LIFO method better reflects
the effect of inflation and results in a more representative LIFO cost index for
product mix changes. The effect of this change was to increase 1996 net income
by $910,000 ($.12 per share).
      Included in Other Assets is long-term tooling inventory totaling
$3,200,000 and $3,172,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Note 4: Lines of Credit

At December 31, 1998, the Company had available unused short-term lines of
credit totaling approximately $22,500,000. No amounts were outstanding under
these lines at December 31, 1998 or December 31, 1997.

Note 5: Pension and Profit Sharing Plans

The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering all eligible employees
in the United States. The benefits are based on years of service and the
employee's earned compensation during any period of the highest 60 consecutive
months occurring during the last ten years of employment. The Company's policy
is to fund at least the minimum pension payment required for federal income tax
qualification purposes. Plan provisions and funding meet the requirements of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

      The Company has a profit sharing plan covering all eligible employees in
the United States. Contributions and costs are determined as the lesser of 25%
of income before income taxes and profit sharing cost or 10% of each covered
employee's salary, and totaled $4,156,000 in 1998, $4,026,000 in 1997, and
$3,631,000 in 1996.

Note 6: Stock Options and Stock Purchase Plan

The Company currently has one fixed option plan, the 1996 Equity Incentive Plan
(the "Plan"). The Plan provides for the granting of options to eligible
employees of all participating subsidiaries of the Company. The Plan permits the
granting of both options that qualify as incentive stock options under Section
422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and options that do not
qualify as incentive stock options under the Code (Non-Qualified Stock Options).
The Company is authorized under the Plan to grant options for shares not to
exceed in the aggregate 500,000 shares of the Company's non-voting Common Stock.
The Plan provides for the granting of both types of options with an exercise
price equal to the greater of par value or the closing market price of the
Company's non-voting Common Stock on the date of the grant and a maximum term of
ten years. All options granted under this Plan shall vest in four equal
installments commencing on the first, second, third, and fourth anniversaries of
the grant date of the option.

      The Company also has one stock purchase plan, the 1996 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") which provides for the purchase of the
Company's non-voting Common Stock by eligible employees of all participating


                                       20

<PAGE>


subsidiaries of the Company. The Purchase Plan commenced on October 1, 1996 and
has a term of ten years with 20 semi-annual subscription periods. During its
term the Purchase Plan permits employees to purchase the Company's non-voting
Common Stock on a regular basis, through payroll deductions not exceeding 10% of
base wages, at a 10% discount from the lowest of the market price on the last
trading day before the first day of the enrollment period with respect to the
subscription period or on the last trading day of such subscription period. The
maximum number of shares to be issued under the Purchase Plan is 150,000 shares
of the Company's non-voting Common Stock. Shares under the Purchase Plan are
subscribed during each subscription period and purchased on the last business
day of such subscription period. The Company had a balance of $103,111 in
employee withholdings at the beginning of the year and had employee withholdings
of $48,140 for the current subscription period at December 31, 1998. The Plan
has issued 41,294 shares to employees as of December 31, 1998. The Company
utilized the same valuation assumptions in this plan as it did in the stock
option plan.
      Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 which requires
expanded disclosures of stock-based compensation arrangements with employees.
SFAS 123 encourages, but does not require, compensation cost to be measured
based on the fair value of the equity instrument awarded. It allows the Company
to continue to measure compensation cost for these plans using the intrinsic
value based method of accounting prescribed by APB No. 25. The Company has
elected to continue to recognize compensation cost based on the intrinsic value
of the equity instrument awarded as promulgated in APB No. 25. Because SFAS No.
123 was not effective for the Company until 1996, its pro forma effects will not
be fully reflected until the year 2000 due to the four year vesting period of
options granted in 1996. The fair value of each option granted was estimated on
the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The 1998, 1997,
and 1996 grants had the following common assumptions: dividend yield of 2.25%;
expected life of 6 years; and volatility of 30%. The 1998, 1997, and 1996 grants
assumed a risk free rate of 5.78%, 5.75%, and 5.93%, respectively. Had
compensation costs for the Company's plans been determined based on the fair
value at the grant date for awards under these plans consistent with the methods
of SFAS No. 123, the impact on the Company's financial results would have been
as follows: as of December 31, 1998, an $823,000 reduction of net income, or
$0.09 per share, and as of December 31, 1997, a $392,000 reduction of net
income, or $0.04 per share. No stock options were vested as of December 31,
1996.

Note 7: Financial Instruments and Risk Management

The Company hedges the potential effect of currency fluctuations on foreign
operating activities by entering into foreign currency forward contracts and
foreign currency option contracts. Gains or losses on qualifying hedges of firm
commitments are recognized as income when the hedged transaction occurs. Forward
contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting are marked to market, and the
resulting gains or losses are reflected in income. Total foreign currency
transaction gains (losses) of $180,000, $373,000, and $(224,000) were recorded
in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. Such amounts are included in other income
in the Statements of Consolidated Income. The forward contracts outstanding at
December 31, 1998 mature during 1999 and 2000, and require the Company to
exchange foreign currency for U.S. dollars at maturity. The Company had foreign
exchange forward contracts of $17.9 million outstanding at December 31, 1998
with a fair market value of approximately $18.2 million. At December 31, 1997
there were $9.8 million foreign exchange forward contacts outstanding with a
fair market value which approximated cost. The foreign exchange option contracts
outstanding at December 31, 1998 can be exercised by the Company during 1999 and
2000 to exchange foreign currency for U.S. dollars at maturity. The Company had
foreign exchange option contracts of $3.4 million outstanding at December 31,
1998 with a fair market value which approximated cost. The fair value of the
foreign exchange forward and option contracts is the amount the Company would
receive or pay to terminate the contracts using quoted market rates.

Note 8: Income Taxes

The income tax provision consists of the following:

Report of Independent Auditors

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Penn Engineering & Manufacturing Corp.

      We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Penn
Engineering & Manufacturing Corp. as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the
related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The financial
statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1996 were audited by
other auditors whose report dated January 29, 1997, expressed an unqualified
opinion on these statements and included an explanatory paragraph that disclosed
the change in the Company's method of accounting for last-in, first-out
inventories discussed in Note 3 to these financial statements. 
      We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Penn Engineering & Manufacturing Corp.
Danboro, Pennsylvania:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Penn Engineering
& Manufacturing Corp. and subsidiaries (the "Company's") as of December 31, 1996
and the related statements of consolidated income, changes in consolidated
stockholders' equity and consolidated income, changes in consolidated
stockholders' equity and consolidated cash flows for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on the audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 1996 and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years
in the period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, during 1996 the
Company changed its method of accounting for last-in, first-out inventories.
