A.	AUDIT INSTRUCTIONS AND PROCEDURES

The management of

WIBAU-ASTEC Maschinenfabrik GmbH,
Grundau-Rothenbergen

(hereinafter called "the Company"), following a resolution in 
the shareholders' meeting of November 15, 1993, engaged us to 
carry out the audit of the attached financial statements and 
management report.

This engagement is governed by the attached "General 
Conditions of Assignment for Auditors and Public Auditing 
Companies" (Appendix 5).

We carried out our interim audit in December 1993 and our 
final audit in February 1994 in the Company's offices in 
Grundau-Rothenbergen.  Our examination was based on prior 
year's financial statements (not audited due to the size of 
the Company) and the financial statements and management 
report as of December 31, 1993 prepared by the Company.

Documents and information necessary for our examination were 
available upon request.

In accordance with Section 317 of the Commercial Code, we 
examined whether the financial statements follow the relevant 
commercial and company law regulations, additional provisions 
of the Company's articles of association and generally 
accepted accounting principles.

Our audit procedures followed the requirements of Statement 1/1988 
issued by the "Institut der Wirtschaftsprufer" (IDW) for the audit of 
financial statements. The extent and scope of our audit procedures 
were determined on the basis of materiality and cost effectiveness.  
By procedural and functional tests of the internal control system and 
by substantive testing, we determined whether the assets and 
liabilities were fully and correctly recorded as to description, 
quantity and value.

As agreed, the following short-form report has been prepared.  
It does not include either the detailed composition of the  
economic position of the Company or explanations of the less 
significant balance sheet and income statement items.

D.	AUDIT RESULT

I.		PRIOR YEAR'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

With respect to the approval of the prior year's financial 
statements, we refer to the information given under B. I.

Since the prior year's financial statements were not audited, 
we have made certain that the assets in the prior year's 
financial statements were valued and recorded in such a manner 
that no material inaccuracy in the current year's operating 
results is to be expected.

Contrary to Sections 325 ff of the Commercial Code, these 
accounts have not yet been published.

The books of account as at December 31, 1992 were properly 
closed.

II.	ACCOUNTING

Our audit did not give rise to doubts regarding proper 
bookkeeping.

III.	FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements were prepared in accordance with 
Sections 242 to 256 and 264 to 288 of the Commercial Code as 
well as the specific requirements of Company Law.  There are 
no further requirements under the Company's articles of 
association.

Based on the balance sheet as of December 31, 1992, the 
financial statements as of December 31, 1993 were correctly 
developed from the accounting records and the inventory 
registers.

The information contained in the "Notes to the Financial 
Statements" is complete and accurate.

<PAGE>

The accounting and valuation principles meet the regulations 
specified in the Commercial Code.  They are described 
correctly in the "Notes to the Financial Statements".  In 
comparison to the previous year, the valuation principles have 
not undergone any changes.

IV.	MANAGEMENT REPORT

The management report meets the requirements of Section 289 of 
the Commercial Code.  It is in agreement with the financial 
statements.  The other information provided in the management 
report does not give a false picture of the Company's 
position.  We have not become aware of significant matters 
arising since the end of the business year.

V.	SPECIFIC REMARKS

The Company ended the year 1993 with a net loss of TDM 5,955.  
Because of this and despite a share capital of TDM 6,000, the 
Company's net equity amounts to only TDM 45.

A net operating loss of TDM 4,693 arose in the prior year.  
Should the economic situation of the Company not improve or 
the shareholders do not take measures to strengthen the 
Company's capital position, it is at risk as a going concern.

<PAGE>

VI.	FINAL REMARKS AND AUDIT OPINION

Our audit of the financial statements of WIBAU-ASTEC 
Maschinenfabrik GmbH as of December 31, 1993 and the 
management report followed generally accepted auditing 
standards for the examination of financial statements.

Management has provided us with all requested information and 
documentation.  In a letter of representation, it was 
confirmed to us that all assets and liabilities, contingencies 
and other commitments and all known risks have been taken into 
account.

The financial statements as of December 31, 1992 have not yet 
been approved.  We, therefore, issue the following unqualified 
opinion in respect of the current financial statements and 
management report, but with an additional comment regarding 
the above issue:

	"	Based on our audit performed in accordance with our 
professional duties, the accounting records and the 
financial statements comply with legal regulations, but 
with the reservation that the December 31, 1992 
financial statements have not yet been approved.  The 
financial statements present, in compliance with 
required accounting principles, a true and fair view of 
the net worth, financial position and results of the 
Company.  The management report is in agreement with 
the financial statements. "

Evidence of Quantities

Evidence of quantities was provided by inventory lists which 
were prepared at the balance sheet date on the basis of a pre-
close inventory of work in process and the taking over of the 
EDP records of other inventories (raw materials, supplies and 
merchandise).

The physical stock counts were recorded in accordance with the 
inventory guidelines and are documented by EDP listings.  We 
verified the correctness of stock-taking procedures by 
observing the physical stock-take on December 30, 1993.

<PAGE>

Valuation

Raw Materials and Supplies

Raw materials and supplies are valued at average cost under 
consideration of the lower of cost or market principle.

Work-in-Process and  Parts

Production cost capitalized is in accordance with tax law and 
based on individual product costings and the lower of cost or 
market principle. Production costs comprise material, labor 
and proportional overhead and depreciation.  The appropriate 
stage of production was taken into account in the inventory 
valuation, using the related product routings as the basis.

Merchandise

Merchandise is valued at cost, under consideration of the 
lower of cost or market principle.

Value Allowances

Valuation risks associated with above average storage periods 
and reduced useability are accounted for by adequate inventory 
reserves.

Inventory reserves, totalling TDM 3.277, were recorded against 
the year-end book values.

Valuation

principle.

In addition to specific allowances, the Company established a 
general allowance of TDM 184.  This allowance was calculated 
at 3 % of the balance of accounts receivable adjusted for 
balances covered by specific allowances and for value-added-tax.

Trade accounts receivable with a remaining term of more than 
one year have been discounted to present value using an interest rate of 8 %.

 accrual for the estimated operating loss for the first quarter of 1994.

 contribution in kind.  Income from the reduction of specific allowances
 (TDM 220) results from the change in the relevant balance sheet positions
 since the date of the contribution in kind.

                  Annual Accounts as of December 31, 1993

                     NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The annual financial statements were prepared according to Sections 242 ff
 and 264 ff of the Commercial Code as well as the relevant regulations
 specified in the GmbHG.

For the income statement the cost-type format was used.


SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost and include know-how (contribution in
 kind) and software.

The Company provides for amortization of know-how and software by the
 straight-line method over a period of five years and the estimated useful
 lives respectively.

Machinery and Equipment

Machinery and equipment are carried at cost.  Major additions and improvements
 are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend
 the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred.

Retirements and disposals are removed from cost and accumulated depreciation
 accounts, with the resulting gain or loss reflected in income.

Depreciation, for financial reporting purposes, is computed using the
 straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

<PAGE>

Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market.  The Company uses the
 average cost method for determining cost of raw materials.  Work in process
 include direct materials and labour plus an appropriate proportion of
 manufacturing overheads based on a normal level of activity.  Reserves are 
 made for slow moving and obsolete items.

Trade Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are net of allowances for doubtful accounts.  In
 addition to specific allowances, a general allowance has been provided to
 cover the general risk on outstanding amounts.  Receivables 
 with a term of more than one year are discounted at a rate of eight percent.

Other Accruals

Other accruals take into account all recognizable risks and contingent
 liabilities.

Liabilities

Liabilities are recorded at the repayment value.

Basis for the Conversion of Foreign Currency Amounts into German Marks

Liabilities in a foreign currency are valued at the higher exchange rate either
 at transaction date or at year end.

                               MANAGEMENT REPORT
                        Wibau-Astec Maschinenfabrik GmbH
                  Business Year: January 1 - December 31, 1993

General

At of the beginning of 1993, Wibau Maschinen GmbH & Co. KG 
integrated its asphalt plant construction business into Wibau 
Astec Maschinenfabrik GmbH (WAG) by means of a cash and assets 
contribution.

At the beginning of July 1993, Astec Industries Inc./USA 
purchased a 50% interest in the shares of WAG as part of an 
increase in capital.

At the beginning of December 1993, a further capital increase 
of DM 2.0 Million, to DM 6.0 Million was made.  This increase 
was allocated equally to Astec Industries Inc./USA (50%) and 
Putzmeister-Werk Maschinenfabrik GmbH (50%).

Following Wibau Maschinen GmbH & Co. KG disposal of its 
interest in WAG to Putzmeister-Werke Maschinenfabrik GmbH at 
the end of December 1993, the share capital of WAG of DM 6.0 
Million, is allocated equally to Astec Industries Inc./USA and 
Putzmeister-Werke Maschinenfabrik GmbH.

Marketing/Sales

The year 1993 was characterized by a serious decrease in the 
asphalt plant construction market, which had already been 
apparent at the end of 1992.  This decrease was also 
accompanied by a fall in prices.  Because of this, only 6 
asphalt plants were invoiced in 1993, of which 4 were 
delivered to the former Soviet Union.  Total turnover for the 
year was approximately DM 30.0 Million.

Operating Results

As the Company had assumed that the decline in the asphalt 
plant construction market would not be restricted to the short 
term, The Company's organization was changed to reflect market 
conditions.

<PAGE>

These measures were primarily aimed at reducing personnel as 
well as other costs.  With this goal in mind, the number of 
employees was reduced in 1993 from 286 to 177.  In addition, 
measures were implemented to increase efficiency and 
productivity.  Despite these measures, however, the Company 
ended the year with an operating loss of TDM 5,955.

Outlook

As a result of the demand increasing toward the end of 1993, 
after the 1993 year-end inquiry, 1994 beagn with an order 
backlog of approx. DM 17.0 Million.  In January 1994, an 
Asphalt plant was sold to the American Astec-Technology.  As a 
result of this additional technology contributed by our 
American shareholder, we expect a positive reaction from the 
market.

Despite continuing competitive pressure and the weak economic 
situation in Europe, we expect that WAG will realize a 
substantial increase in sales in 1994.  We will strive to 
attain a net operating result which is at least break-even.

	(b) Pro Forma Financial Information

  PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

	The Pro Forma Balance Sheet and Pro Forma Statements of Income (collectively,
 the "pro forma financial information") give effect to Astec's acquisition
 of the remaining 50% interest of a German joint 
 venture, Wibau-Astec Maschinenfabrik GmbH, for DM 100,000 (approximately
 $ 67,000) and the assumption of liabilities of approximately DM 10,760,000
 (approximately $ 7,080,000).  Subsequent to the acquisition of the
 remaining 50% of  Wibau-Astec, Astec made the
 decision to restructure Wibau-Astec and to discontinue manufacturing
 operations.  As a result, approximately 150 employees were given 
 notice of their termination and Wibau-Astec also gave notice that it intended
 to vacate its manufacturing facilities which were leased.  After the
 restructuring, Wibau-Astec will supply parts for use in asphalt 
 production and also sell asphalt plants manufactured by Astec.  The pro forma
 financial information is based on the historical financial information of
 Astec and Wibau-Astec and gives effect to the restructuring of Wibau-Astec
 and the pro forma adjustments, based on estimates, described in the notes 
 thereto.  The Pro Forma Statements of Income assume that the acquisition of
 the remaining interest in Wibau-Astec and its restructuring had been effective
 as of  the beginning of the periods presented and the Pro Forma Balance
 Sheet assumes that such acquisition and restructuring was effective as of
 September 30, 1994.
	The pro forma financial information reflects the purchase method of accounting
 for the acquisition of the remaining interest in Wibau-Astec, and accordingly
 is based on estimated purchase accounting adjustments that are subject to
 further revision once appraisals or other studies of the fair value 
 of Wibau-Astec's assets and liabilities are completed.  The pro forma financial
 information was computed using an assumed exchange rate of DM 1.547 per dollar
 (the quoted exchange rate at September 30, 1994 as published in the Wall
 Street Journal).
	The pro forma financial information reflects certain assumptions described
 above and in Notes to Pro Forma Balance Sheet and Notes to Pro Forma
 Statements of Income, including Astec's estimates of 
 certain anticipated cost savings resulting from the restructuring of
 Wibau-Astec.  The actual savings may be higher or lower than these
 estimates.  The pro forma financial information does not purport to present 
 what Astec's financial condition or results of operations would actually have
 been if the acquisition of the remaining interest in Wibau-Astec had occurred
 as of the beginning of the periods presented, as specified 
 above, or to project Astec's financial condition or results of operations for
 any future date or any future period.  Wibau-Astec expects to incur
 restructuring charges of approximately DM 3,700,000
 (approximately $2,400,000) in the fourth quarter of 1994 related to the
 discontinuance of its manufacturing operations.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED
BALANCE SHEET (UNAUDITED)
(1)	Concurrently with Astec's acquisition of the remaining 50% of Wibau-Astec
 from Putzmeister-Werk Maschinenfabrik GmbH, its joint venture partner,
 Putzmeister contributed DM 6,300,000 (approximately $4,072,000) to eliminate
 the deficiency in its capital account (approximately DM 2,531,000
 or $1,636,000) and pay a portion of the costs to be incurred in restructuring
 Wibau-Astec.   This pro forma adjustment gives effect to such contribution as
 of September 30, 1994.  This contribution was used to pay down debt as
 required under revised lines of credit.

(2)	This pro forma adjustment reflects the accrual of restructuring costs of
 approximately DM 3,770,000 or $2,436,000 (pretax) to discontinue manufacturing
 at Wibau-Astec.  These costs are primarily related to employee severance,
 write-off of property and equipment and lease termination costs.  This 
 accrual is specifically related to actions impacting Wibau-Astec's
 pre-acquisition operations.  The majority of the costs represented by the
 accrual will be incurred in the fourth quarter of 1994.  The 
 restructuring plan, which has resulted in net employee reductions of
 approximately 150, is expected to result in significant cost savings
 and is expected to be substantially completed during the first half of 
 1995.

(3)	This pro forma adjustment represents the acquisition of Putzmeister's 50%
 interest in Wibau-Astec for DM 100,000 or approximately $65,000.  The
 following table depicts the calculation of Astec's 
 purchase price and its preliminary allocations to Wibau-Astec's assets using
 estimated purchase accounting adjustments as of September 30, 1994, which are
 subject to further revision once appraisals and other studies of the fair
 value of Wibau-Astec's assets and liabilities are completed.  Final purchase 
 accounting adjustments will differ from the amounts shown below due to foreign
 currency translation effects and the results of operations of Wibau-Astec
 to the date of closing.

(1)  	This pro forma adjustment reflects the restructuring of Wibau-Astec to
 discontinue manufacturing.  As a result, net sales and cost of sales have been
 reduced by the amounts related to the manufacture and sale of asphalt
 plants and components.  Subsequent to the restructuring, Wibau-Astec 
 will continue to supply parts for asphalt production as well as sell asphalt
 plants which will be manufactured by Astec.  No revenue has been assumed in
 the pro formas from the sale of asphalt plants 
 manufactured by Astec, but expenses related to selling plants has been included
 in selling, general and administrative expenses.  If adequate revenues from
 plant sales are not generated, expenses will be reduced accordingly.
 No such expense reduction has been assumed in the Pro Forma Condensed 
 Combined Statements of Income.  Revenue and cost of sales relative to the sale
 of supply parts for the year ended December 31, 1993, and the nine months
 ended September 30, 1994 were as follows:

(2)	This pro forma adjustment reflects the estimated cost savings resulting
 from the restructuring of Wibau-Astec.  The estimated cost savings result from
 net reductions of approximately 150 employees and the termination of the lease
 of manufacturing facilities.  A substantial majority of the workforce

 of Wibau-Astec's intention to vacate its  leased manufacturing facility. 
 The costs associated with the restructuring plan have been accrued in the 
 Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet.

(3)	This pro forma adjustment represents the elimination of  other income which
 was primarily related to the manufacturing operations which have been
 eliminated in the restructuring.(4)	This pro forma adjustment represents the
 amortization expense relating to acquisition of goodwill which will be
 amortized over a period of twenty years.

(5)	This pro forma adjustment represents the elimination of equity in losses of
 joint venture relative to Wibau-Astec which had been recognized in Astec's
 historical financial statements.
