To Our Stockholders:


     We experienced another difficult year in 1994. Net sales decreased to 
$22,239,000 in 1994 from $29,331,000 in 1993. $5,660,000 of this decrease
occurred in the medical instruments area due principally to the loss of our
largest medical customer. We also incurred some sales declines in aerospace
($766,000) and specialty machines ($668,000), but these were minimal.

     The negatives in the medical instruments area were offset by positives in 
other areas. Our spindle business was strong in 1994 and is off to a very strong
start in 1995. Most importantly, we became a "preferred" supplier to our largest
aerospace customer. Airframe manufacturers are demanding larger jet engines. In 
order to aggressively pursue this market, we acquired several machines during
the past year that allow us to produce much larger aerospace parts than we were
previously capable of producing. To facilitate this larger machinery, we are
adding a new 20,000 square foot building adjacent to our existing facilities.

     We also undertook major innovations in our design capabilities. We are in 
the process of adding several new graphics and computer-aided design systems in 
order to service a more diverse customer base. System upgrades are a part of the
ongoing process of maintaining a leadership position.

     The problems we faced in 1994 are not over. Continued pressure on our 
prices and decreased revenues had a significant negative impact on our earnings.
We are working harder than ever to rebuild sales and profitability and on this 
front there is reason for optimism. Our backlog is up to $24.5 million as 
compared with $21 million last year. We are also being surveyed by several 
aerospace companies as a potential supplier. Our balance sheet continues to be 
very strong. Our commitment to quality and customer service remains the core 
value of our company.

     We appreciate the exceptional efforts of each of our employees and are 
confident that we will repay your continued confidence by building solid, 
long-term stockholder value.

Thank you for your support.

Marketing and Competition
- -------------------------

    Edac has numerous competitors both in design and manufacturing. Many of the
independent firms with which it competes are smaller than Edac and do not
provide the variety of high quality services that Edac provides. Edac also
competes with its customers' in-house manufacturing and technical services
capabilities. Edac believes that it is able to compete effectively with
independent firms and customers' in-house capabilities because of Edac's
emphasis on customer service, its experience and its competitive pricing of its
services.

    For its fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, approximately 69% of Edac's net
sales were derived from sales to United Technologies Corporation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues from the Company's principal markets are as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
 
   In Thousands of Dollars     1994       1993       1992
- --------------------------   --------   --------   --------
<S>                          <C>        <C>        <C>
Aerospace customers.......    $15,810    $16,576    $18,772
Medical customers.........      1,161      6,819     15,085
Other.....................      5,268      5,936      4,395
</TABLE>

    Net sales decreased $7,092,000 or 24% in 1994 from 1993. Aerospace sales
decreased $766,000 or 5% from 1993 while sales to medical customers declined by
$5,658,000 or 83%. During 1994, the Company's principal aerospace customer
continued to implement cost savings initiatives including personnel reductions,
vendor consolidations and facility closings to respond to the decline in
military and commercial aviation markets. While this negatively impacted the
Company's revenues, the Company remains an approved supplier of this customer.
The Company's principal medical customer consolidated its vendor base resulting
in the Company receiving few orders in 1994, which level of activity is not
expected to increase in 1995. Sales to other customers decreased $668,000 or 11%
reflecting a decrease in specialized machine sales offset slightly by increased
spindle sales.

    Net sales decreased $8,921,000 or 23% in 1993 from 1992. Decreased sales
were due primarily to the Company's medical instruments customers. Sales to
medical instruments customers decreased by $8,266,000 or 55% from 1992. Sales to
aerospace customers decreased by $2,196,000 or 12% from 1992. Sales to customers
in other markets increased by $1,541,000 or 35% from 1992.

    In late 1992, pricing concessions were granted to the Company's principal
aerospace customer for ongoing production orders. The Company negotiated price
concessions with its suppliers and implemented cost control programs to mitigate
that concession.

    Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased in 1994 to 86.0% from 85.0%
in 1993 due primarily to the effect of spreading fixed overhead over lower
production levels. Additionally, the Company incurred expense in moving certain
machines and departments within the Company to better utilize its existing
facilities. The American Research department was moved to newly leased
facilities.

    Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased in 1993 to 85.0% from 83.4%
in 1992 due to the above mentioned reduced prices from aerospace customers and
the effect of spreading fixed overhead over lower production levels. In
addition, the Company had lower sales and reduced prices to its principal
medical customer.

    Selling, general and administrative costs increased $14,000 in 1994 from
1993 due to additional sales personnel and increased travel and telephone
expense, offset by reduced compensation expense.

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
    In 1993 selling, general and administrative costs decreased by $624,000 or
18.9% from 1992. This decrease is the result of the Company's cost reduction
programs implemented early in the year in response to the contracting aerospace
and medical markets. The Company amended its defined benefit plan as of April 1,
1993 to cease benefit accruals. This resulted in a reduction of pension expense
of $282,000. In addition, commission expense decreased by $69,000, amortization
expense decreased by $68,000 and compensation and other expenses decreased by
$205,000.


INTEREST AND OTHER

    Interest expense in 1994 was $433,000, a decrease of $90,000 from 1993. This
decrease reflects a reduction in overall borrowing levels throughout the year
offset slightly by an increasing interest rate on the Company's revolving line
of credit.

    Interest expense in 1993 was $523,000, a decrease of $222,000 from 1992.
This decrease reflects a reduction in overall borrowing levels throughout the
year. Additionally, the Company refinanced term debt with a fixed interest rate
of 10.15% in March 1993 with $4,000,000 of new term debt with a fixed interest
rate of 7.65%.

    Other income for 1994 was $72,000 consisting primarily of insurance proceeds
received.

    Other expense for 1993 was $11,000 reflecting a loss on an investment. Other
income of $36,000 for 1992 reflects insurance proceeds received.


INCOME TAXES

    The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No.
109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" in 1992. There was no cumulative effect of
adopting this change as of January 1, 1992 because of the Company's net
operating loss position at time of adoption. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax
expenses or credits are based on the changes in deferred tax assets and
liabilities from period to period.

    The effective rates of 0% for 1994, 37.5% for 1993 and 36.7% for 1992
reflects the utilization of the Company's net operating loss carryforward,
limited to $181,000 per year. (See note F). The Company expects to recognize the
benefit from its remaining net operating loss carryover only to the extent such
amounts are realized for tax purposes and are not required to offset required
deferred tax liabilities.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company assesses its liquidity in terms of its ability to generate cash
to fund its operating and investing activities. Of particular importance to the
Company's liquidity are cash flows

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
generated from operating activities, capital expenditure levels and available
bank lines of credit.

The following is selected cash flow data from the Statements of Cash Flows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
 
   In Thousands of Dollars        1994       1993       1992

   Net cash flow from
     financing activities....      (509)    (2,918)    (1,153)
   </TABLE>

    Net cash flow from operating activities in 1994 primarily reflect net income
and non-cash charges against income. Net cash flow from operating activities in
1993 improved over 1992 due to reduced inventory levels. Net cash flows from
investing activities for all years primarily reflect purchases of fixed assets
consisting mainly of machinery and equipment. Expenditures have been necessary
to add capacity and to increase productivity.

    </TABLE>

    The Company believes that there are sales opportunities in providing larger
machining capabilities to the aerospace engine industry, as airframe
manufacturers are demanding larger engines. In 1994, the Company purchased
several used large machines capable of producing parts for the larger engines.
The Company anticipates constructing in 1995, a 20,000 square foot building
adjacent to its existing buildings. The large machine that the Company has
committed to purchase in 1995 (See note G) along with the other large machines
purchased in 1994 will be placed in service in the new building. Including the
building, the Company anticipates spending approximately $2.2 million in 1995 on
capital expenditures. The Company has secured a mortgage commitment from its
bank for the new building. In addition, it has an equipment line of credit with
its bank which provides up to

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
$500,000 in 1995 for equipment purchases, and it has secured an extended payment
agreement for the purchase of $690,000 of equipment. (See note G)

    In March 1993, the Company completed a refinancing of $4,000,000 of term
debt with its bank reducing its fixed interest rate and its annual payments.
Principal payments were reduced by $500,000 for 1994, $1,701,000 for 1995 and by
$353,000 for 1996. By refinancing its term debt under favorable conditions and
thereby favorably impacting cash flow for 1995 and 1996, management believes the
Company is well positioned to respond to a healthier aerospace market. The
Company has a revolving line of credit with its bank which provides up to
$7,000,000 ($1,386,530 outstanding at December 31, 1994) limited by a formula
based on percentages of the Company's receivables and inventory.

    Management believes that the funds generated from operations, as well funds
available from existing financing agreements, will be sufficient to meet the
Company's cash flow needs throughout 1995.

EDAC TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION

DECEMBER 31, 1994


NOTE A -- ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

Until May 12, 1989, Edac Technologies Corporation (the Company) was a subsidiary
of Cade Industries, Inc. (Cade) which owned approximately 57% of the Company's
outstanding Common Stock.  Effective May 12, 1989, Cade sold its investment in
the Company's Common Stock to a partnership comprised of certain members of the
Company's management and the Edac Technologies Corporation Employee Stock
Ownership Plan (ESOP).  The Partnership owns 27.4% and the ESOP owns 27.1% of
the Company's outstanding Common Stock as of December 31, 1994.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation:  The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, Gros-Ite Industries, Inc. and
Natural Cool, Ltd.  Intercompany transactions have been eliminated from the
consolidated financial statements.

Inventories:  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out
method) or market.

Property, Plant and Equipment:  Property, plant and equipment are stated at

straight-line method over 3 to 12 years for machinery and equipment and 25 years
for buildings for financial reporting purposes.  For income tax reporting
purposes, straight-line and accelerated methods are used.

Earnings Per Share:  Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding during the year, plus the dilutive effect,
if any, of outstanding stock options.


NOTE B -- COMMON STOCK AND STOCK OPTIONS

On December 5, 1991, the Board of Directors adopted the 1991 Stock Option Plan
(the Plan).  The Plan is non-qualified and provides for the granting of up to
325,000 options to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock.  The option

may be exercised at the rate of 33 1/3% six months after the grant date, another
33 1/3% one year after the grant date and the remaining 33 1/3% two years after
the grant date.  Options may be granted under the Plan through December 5, 2001.
During 1991, options to purchase 282,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at
$.5625 per share were granted under the Plan.

On January 1, 1994, options to purchase 100,000 restricted shares were granted

</TABLE>

The Company also has a Revolving Loan and Security Agreement (the Agreement)
which provides for a revolving line of credit with a borrowing base limited to
an amount which is the lesser of $10,000,000 or an amount determined by a
formula based on percentages of the Company's receivables and inventory.  The
revolving line of credit bears interest at the bank's base rate of interest
(8.5% at December 31, 1994) on borrowings up to $3,000,000, base rate plus 1/4
on borrowings from $3,000,001 to $6,000,000 and base rate plus 1/2 on borrowings
from $6,000,001 to $10,000,000.  Effective February 28, 1995, the Agreement was
amended to revise the borrowing base to the lesser of $7,000,000 or an amount
determined by a formula based on percentages of the Company's receivables and
inventory and extend the maturity of the Agreement from January 31, 1995 to
January 31, 1996.  The interest rate was amended to the bank's base rate of
interest.  The Agreement also provides for an equipment line of credit which
provides loan advances of 75% of equipment purchases up to an aggregate amount
of $500,000,  with interest payable monthly at the bank's base rate plus 0.5%.
The principal amount outstanding as of February 1, 1995 will be paid in 60 equal
payments commencing February 1, 1995.  Interest will be charged monthly after
February 1, 1995 at the bank's base rate plus 0.5% or, upon election of the
Company, at a fixed rate equal to 3% above the bank's five-year average cost of
funds.  At December 31, 1994, the Company had borrowed $208,837 on the equipment
line.  The Agreement, as amended on February 28, 1995, provides as of February
1, 1995 a second equipment line of credit which provides loan advances of 75% of
equipment purchases up to an aggregate amount of $500,000 through January 31,
1996 with interest payable monthly at the bank's base rate plus 0.5%.  The
principal amount outstanding as of February 1, 1996 will be paid in 60 equal
payments commencing February 1, 1996.  Interest will be charged monthly after
February 1, 1996 at the bank's base rate plus 0.5% or, upon election of the
Company, at a fixed rate equal to 3% above the bank's cost of funds.  The
Agreement also provides for a five-year term loan in the original amount of
$4,000,000 ($3,719,444 outstanding at December 31, 1994).

At December 31, 1994 and 1993, borrowings outstanding under the revolving line
of credit and the equipment line amounted to $1,595,367 and $1,874,565,
respectively.  The unused portion of the line of credit was approximately
$4,730,965 as of December 31, 1994 (based on a borrowing base determined by the
formula).

To secure all obligations of the Company under the Agreement, the bank has a
first priority security interest in the Company's accounts receivable,
inventories, equipment, real estate and other assets.   The Agreement requires,
among other things, minimum levels of net income, no material adverse changes in
the financial condition of the company and the maintenance of certain financial
ratios including debt to net worth, interest coverage, current and debt service
ratios.  The Agreement also prohibits payment of dividends, issuance, redemption
or sale of common stock, and creation of certain other encumbrances and
contingent liabilities without the consent of the bank and limits the amount of
annual capital expenditures.  The Company was in compliance with all loan
covenants, as amended, at December 31, 1994.

1997--$273,347; 1998--$3,253,763; and 1999--$38,889.


NOTE D -- PENSION PLAN

The Company maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering
substantially all employees meeting certain minimum age and service
requirements.  The benefits are generally based on years of service and
employees' compensation during the last five years of employment.  The Company's
policy is to contribute annually the amount necessary to satisfy the
requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

In March 1993, the Board of Directors approved a curtailment to the plan which
resulted in the freezing of all future benefits under the plan as of April 1,
1993.  As a result, the Company recognized a gain of $361,929 in 1993.

The following table sets forth the plan's funded status and amounts recognized
in the Company's financial statements:

The weighted-average discount rate used in determining the actuarial present
value of the projected benefit obligation was 7.5%.  The expected long-term rate
of return on plan assets was 7%.

In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions," the Company recorded an
additional liability with a corresponding reduction in stockholders' equity of
$132,598 relating to the change in the discount rate from 8.0% to 7.5%
subsequent to the curtailment of the plan.

In July 1991, the Company established a 401(k) defined contribution plan.  The
Company matches 10% of employee contributions up to 4% of compensation.
Employer contributions and expense related to this plan were $10,508, $17,891,
and $17,309 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

NOTE E -- EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

Effective May 4, 1989, the Company established the Edac Technologies Corporation
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the ESOP).  Employees of the Company are eligible
to participate in the ESOP beginning six months following their hire date.  The
Company's contributions to the ESOP are determined annually by the Board of
Directors.  The Company records the expense in the amount of contributions made
to the ESOP.  The Company contributed $104,500, $105,000, and $111,000, to the
ESOP for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

At December 31, 1994, the ESOP owned 973,802 shares of the Company's Common
Stock. These shares were purchased using the proceeds of a $700,000 note payable
to a bank for which repayment has been guaranteed by the Company.  Interest
expense incurred on the debt was $26,357, $26,772. and $32,679, for the years
ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

In the accompanying financial statements, the outstanding debt of the ESOP has
been included in the Company's long-term debt, and shareholders' equity has been
decreased by a corresponding amount.  As the principal amount of the loan is
repaid, the liability and the amount offset against shareholders' equity will be
reduced in equal amounts.


NOTE F -- INCOME TAXES

Effective January 1, 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes."  Under SFAS No. 109,
deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between
the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using
the enacted marginal tax rate.  Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are
based on the changes in the deferred  tax assets and liabilities from period to
period. Because of the Company's net operating loss carryforward position, there
was no cumulative effect of adopting this change as of January 1, 1992.

Income tax expense (benefit) are included in the financial statements as follows
(in 000's):

Due to the change in ownership during 1989 (see Note A), provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code restrict the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards (NOLs) attributed to the period prior to the change in ownership.
As of December 31, 1994, the Company has pre-change NOLs of approximately
$1,521,000 available to offset future federal taxable income of which the
company is limited to annual utilization of approximately $181,000.  These NOLs
expire in the year 2003.  The Company has alternative minimum tax credits of
approximately $268,000 which carry forward indefinitely for Federal income tax
purposes.  These credits can be used in the future to the extent that the
Company's regular tax liability exceeds amounts calculated under the alternative
minimum tax method.
