 were 16.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 1994 down from 20.0% for the same
 quarter last year.  The decrease in selling, general and administrative for
 the first quarter of 1994 is mainly attributed to decreased legal fees,
 international dealer commissions and the lack of ConExpo trade show expenses
 as incurred during the same period last year.

 	Patent suit damages and expenses were .2% of net sales for the quarter ended
 March 31, 1994 compared to .3% for the quarter ended March 31, 1993.  See
 "Contingencies".  The appeals for the patent cases were heard concurrently on
 December 7, 1992.  A decision is expected from the Court sometime in the
 third or fourth quarter of 1994.

 	Interest expense decreased to $71,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1994
 from $757,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1993.  Interest expense as a
 percentage of net sales decreased to .2% for the quarter ended March 31, 1994
 from 1.7% for the same period of 1993.  The decrease in interest expense is
 attributable to the reduction of long-term debt.

 	Other income net of other expense decreased to a net expense of $194,000 for
 the quarter ended March 31, 1994 compared to net other income of $822,000 for
 the same period last year.  Contributing to the decrease in other income, net
 of expense for the first quarter of 1994 is a loss of $723,000 from the
 Wibau-Astec joint venture.  Effective July 1, 1993 the Company owned 50% of
 Wibau-Astec which is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. 
 In addition, license fee income decreased by $356,000 during the first quarter
 of 1994 compared to the first quarter of 1993.

 	Backlog at March 31, 1994 was $54,593,000 compared to $37,161,000 at March
 31, 1993.

 	Earnings per share were $.29 for the first quarter of 1994 compared to $.22
 for the same period of 1993.  Earnings per share have been restated to
 retroactively reflect the two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a
 dividend on August 12, 1993.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources

 	As of March 31, 1994, the Company had working capital of $47,136,000 compared
 to $37,888,000 at March 31, 1993.  Working capital increased in the first
 quarter primarily due to an increase in the Company's inventory and cash.  The
 increased cash is from a recent Industrial Revenue Bond issue by the Company's
 Telsmith, Inc. subsidiary for use in capital expansion.  The current ratio was
 2.0 and 1.9 at March 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. 

 	Total short-term borrowings, including current maturities of long-term debt,
 were $500,000 at March 31, 1994.  Long-term debt less current maturities was
 $10,605,000 at March 31, 1994.  Long-term debt decreased as a result of the 
 pay-off of the Principal Mutual Senior and Subordinated Notes during the
 second and third quarters of 1993.  At March 31, 1994, the Company had
 approximately $5,105,000 of outstanding long-term indebtedness under its
 revolving credit agreement with The First National Bank of Chicago.

 	Capital expenditures are budgeted at $13,142,000 for 1994 for plant expansion
 and to  further modernize some of the Company's manufacturing processes. 
 These expenditures are being financed using internally generated funds and
 industrial revenue bonds.  Capital expenditures through March 31, 1994
 were $8,297,000.

 	The Company has a revolving credit loan agreement with The First National
 Bank of Chicago which has been in place since 1987.  The current line of
 credit is $15,000,000.  This credit facility has been renewed through
 March 31, 1996 and the Company is currently negotiating an extended and
 revised credit agreement. The Company was in compliance with all financial
 covenants at March 31, 1994.

 	On February 16, 1994 the City of Mequon, Wisconsin issued Variable Rate
 Demand Industrial Revenue Bonds, Series 1994, in the amount of $6,000,000 in
 accordance with a loan agreement between the City of Mequon and Telsmith,
 Inc., an Astec subsidiary.  The Bonds become due and payable in $500,000
 annual increments which commence on February 1, 1995 and end in 2006.

 	On April 29, 1994, the City of Grapevine, Texas Industrial Development
 Corporation issued Industrial Development Revenue Bonds, Series 1994 in the
 amount of $8,000,000 pursuant to a loan agreement between the issuer and
 Trenco Jetco, Inc., an Astec subsidiary.  The Bonds are supported by an
 Initial Letter of Credit issued by the First National Bank of Chicago.  The
 Bonds mature on April 1, 2019.

 	The Company is involved in negotiations with Crown Andersen Inc. ("Crown"),
 a publicly held manufacturer of engineered products to clean and restore the
 environment, to acquire Crown in a stock-for-stock merger.  Preliminary terms
 which have been discussed would provide for Astec to issue Astec common stock
 in exchange for Crown common stock, resulting in the issuance of approximately
 670,000 shares of Astec common stock.  Crown stock would be valued at
 approximately $8 per share in the merger.  Any possible transaction with Crown
 is subject to numerous conditions, including final agreement on the terms and
 conditions, negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, completion of
 due diligence, and other customary closing conditions.

 Contingencies

 	The Company is involved in two ongoing patent lawsuits with CMI Corporation
 and has various other claims and lawsuits outstanding in the normal course of
 business.  Management has reviewed all claims and lawsuits and, upon the
 advice of counsel, has made provisions for estimated losses.  However, any
 damages ultimately assessed against the Company as a result of any litigation
 could exceed the recorded provisions for loss.

 	The Company is engaged in certain pending litigation involving claims or
 other matters arising in the normal course of business.  Most of these claims
 involve product liability or other tort claims for property damage or personal
 injury against which the Company is insured.  As a part of its litigation
 management program, the Company maintains general liability insurance covering
 product liability and other similar tort claims providing the Company coverage
 of $6 million subject to a substantial self-insured retention under the terms
 of which the Company has the right to coordinate and control the management of
 its claims and the defense of these actions.

 	The Company and its former Barber-Greene subsidiary (now Telsmith, Inc.) are
 defendants in two patent infringement actions brought by CMI Corporation
 ("CMI"), a competitor, seeking monetary damages and an injunction to cease
 the alleged infringement.

 	The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee ruled in 1988
 in the Robert L. Mendenhall and CMI case against Astec and Astec's
 counterclaims against CMI that the trial of the cases be bifurcated into two
 sequential phases, liability and damages.  In the liability phase of the trial
 in 1988, the Court determined that two CMI patents were valid and infringed by
 Astec and that three Astec patents were valid and infringed by CMI.  Both CMI
 and Astec appealed the Court's decision.  In separate decisions rendered in
 September 1989 and in November 1989, the Court of Appeals for the Federal
 Circuit affirmed the District Court's decisions with respect to validity and
 infringement of both the CMI and Astec patents.

 	During July and August 1990, a bench trial was held in the U. S. District
 Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee to determine damages in connection
 with the foregoing suit.  The trial covered the calculation of damages against
 Astec with respect to two CMI patents and against CMI with respect to three
 Astec patents.  On June 20, 1991, the Court entered its findings on the
 damages phase of the litigation rejecting CMI's claims for lost profits and
 damages in excess of $50,000,000 and determined that damages would be
 calculated based on reasonable royalties.  In connection with this finding,
 the Court ruled that Astec owes CMI damages of $8,463,000 plus pre-judgment
 interest of $5,309,000 and attorneys' fees of $737,000 and that CMI
 in turn owes Astec damages of $667,000 plus $391,000 of pre-judgment
 interest.  The net damages and expenses determined by the Court to be
 payable to CMI total approximately $13,451,000.

 	In the foregoing litigation, the Court ruled that both CMI and Astec are to
 pay royalties on patented articles sold.  However, in computing the royalties
 owed by Astec to CMI, the Court included the entire asphalt plant price
 (the convoyed price) in its computations, while only specific patented
 articles were considered in the computation of royalties owed by CMI to Astec.
  In the opinion of the Company and its litigation counsel, the Court's method
 of computation is contrary to law and is inconsistent with the Court's rulings
 on other issues in the case.  Based on the Court's method of computation,
 Astec is being required to pay royalties to CMI on Astec's own patented
 equipment which CMI has been found to have infringed.  The
 Company has appealed the Court's decision on these computations and other
 issues.  Pending the outcome of the appeal, the Company was directed by the
 Court to pledge substantially all of its real property and to deposit
 approximately $3,000,000 in an escrow to secure the judgment against the
 Company.

 	In the CMI and Robert L Mendenhall case against Barber-Greene, on October 24,
 1990, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois amended a
 previous order and determined that the Company was liable for approximately
 $2,838,000 in pre-judgment interest in addition to the previously announced
 jury verdict of approximately $4,457,000.  CMI filed an appeal regarding the
 trial court's determination of pre-judgment interest.  The Barber-Greene
 Company has also filed an appeal.  In connection with such appeal, the Company
 deposited in an account at the Court's direction, approximately $7,295,000
 representing the amount of the judgment (including pre-judgment interest which
 is the subject of the appeal) entered by the trial court.

 	One CMI patent and all but one claim of a second patent used as a basis for
 their suit against Astec and Barber-Greene, were invalidated in a jury trial
 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa in a suit against Cedarapids, Inc.  CMI appealed the
 decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.  Astec has also
 appealed the two CMI cases discussed above to the U.S. Court of Appeals for
 the Federal Circuit.  Oral argument in all three appeals was heard
 concurrently by the Federal Circuit on December 7, 1992.  The invalidity 
 decision in the Cedarapids case was upheld and CMI then petitioned the U.S.
 Supreme Court to review the case.  In April 1994, the Supreme Court declined
 to do so, thus leaving the Federal Circuit's decision in the Cedarapids case
 intact.  It is the opinion of the Company's litigation counsel that the Court
 may have a legal basis for setting aside both the CMI vs. Astec and CMI vs.
 Barber-Greene decisions.  However, because of the uncertainties inherent in
 the litigation process, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate
 resolution of these lawsuits. An unfavorable result on appeal could have a
 material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial
 condition, however, management believes that the Company can satisfy its cash
 needs from funds already deposited in escrow and, to the extent necessary,
 from cash flow or through additional short or long-term borrowing.  While a
 decision could be announced at any time, the Company expects the decision to
 be rendered sometime in the third or fourth quarter of 1994.

 	The Company's Telsmith subsidiary is also a defendant in a patent
 infringement action brought by Nordberg, Inc., a manufacturer of a competing
 line of rock crushing equipment, seeking monetary damages and an injunction to
 cease an alleged infringement of a patent on certain components used in the
 production of its rock crushing equipment.  This case, being heard before the
 U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, has been bifurcated
 into liability and damages phases.  The liability phase was tried on
 January 11, 1993, however, no decision has been rendered by the Court. 
 Because of the uncertainties inherent in the litigation process, the
 Company is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

 	Management has reviewed all claims and lawsuits and, upon the advice of its
 litigation counsel, has made provision for any estimable losses; however, the
 Company is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of the outstanding claims and
 lawsuits.
