                        ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS 
                               OCTOBER 18, 1994 
                               PROXY STATEMENT 
    


                            INFORMATION CONCERNING 
                           SOLICITATION AND VOTING 


This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of 
proxies by the Board of Directors of Watts Industries, Inc. (the "Company") 
for use at the Company's 1994 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on 
Tuesday, October 18, 1994 and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) 
thereof. Shares represented by duly executed proxies will be voted for the 
election of the nominees named herein for Director, for the ratification of 
the selection of Ernst & Young as the independent auditors of the Company for 
the current fiscal year, and for approval of an amendment to the Company's 
Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized 
shares of the Company's capital stock by increasing the number of authorized 
shares of Class A Common Stock to 80,000,000 and the number of authorized 
shares of Class B Common Stock to 25,000,000, unless authority is withheld or 
different instructions are given. 


Proxies may be revoked by a written revocation received by the Secretary of 
the Company at the address of the Company set forth below or in open meeting 
at any time prior to the voting thereof. Submission of a later dated proxy 
will revoke any earlier dated proxy. Unless previously revoked, proxies 
delivered will be voted at the meeting. Where a choice or instruction is 
specified by the stockholder thereon, the proxy will be voted in accordance 
with such specification. Where a choice or instruction is not specified by 
the stockholder, the proxy will be voted as recommended by the Directors. 
Shares held for customers of brokers which are not voted on a proposal 
because of a lack of instructions from such brokers' customers are not 
considered entitled to vote on that proposal, but if represented by proxy 
will be treated as present at the meeting. Because directors are elected by a 
plurality of the votes cast, withholding authority to vote for a nominee has 
the same effect as a vote against such nominee. 

   
Stockholders of record at the close of business on September 2, 1994 are 
entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting. Each share of Class 
A Common Stock of the Company outstanding on the record date is entitled to 
one vote and each share of Class B Common Stock of the Company outstanding on 
the record date is entitled to ten votes. As of the close of business on 
September 2, 1994, there were outstanding and entitled to vote 18,013,522
shares of Class A Common Stock and 11,472,470 shares of Class B Common Stock. 
    


This proxy statement and the enclosed proxy are being mailed together by the 
Company on or about September 14, 1994 to stockholders of record as of 
September 2, 1994. The Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended June 
30, 1994 was mailed to such stockholders of the Company with this proxy 
statement. 


The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 815 Chestnut 
Street, North Andover, Massachusetts 01845. 


The expenses of preparing, printing and assembling the materials used in the 
solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to the 
solicitation of proxies by use of the mails, the Company will pay $2,500 plus 
expenses to Corporate Investor Communications, Inc. to solicit proxies and 
the Company may also use the services of some of its officers and employees 
(who will receive no compensation therefor in addition to their regular 
salaries) to solicit proxies personally and by mail, telephone and telegraph. 
Brokerage houses, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians will be 
requested to forward solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of 
shares held of record by them and will be reimbursed for their reasonable 
expenses. 


At the date hereof the management of the Company has no knowledge of any 
business other than the matters set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting of 
Stockholders and described above that will be presented for consideration at 
the meeting. If any other business should come before such meeting, the 
persons appointed by the enclosed form of proxy will have discretionary 
authority to vote all such proxies as they shall decide. Each of the persons 
appointed by the enclosed form of proxy present and acting at the meeting, in 
person or by substitute, shall have and may exercise all of the powers and 
authority of the proxies.

respect thereof are subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the other 
Horne family members named in the table. The Company has granted registration 
rights with respect to the shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned

 (5) Includes (i) 2,936,068 shares, of which 84,848 shares are Class A Common 
Stock, beneficially owned by Timothy P. Horne (for purposes of this footnote, 
"Mr. Horne"), (ii) 1,355,166 shares owned by Frederic B. Horne, Mr. Horne's 
brother, (iii) 1,335,840 shares held for the benefit of Daniel W. Horne, Mr. 
Horne's brother, under a revocable trust for which Mr. Horne serves as sole 
trustee, (iv) 1,335,840 shares held for the benefit of Deborah Horne, Mr.

revocable trust for which Frederic B. Horne serves as sole trustee, (vi) 
2,200,000 shares held for the benefit of George B. Horne, Mr. Horne's father, 
under a revocable trust for which Mr. Horne serves as co-trustee, and (vii)

157,740 shares held by Judith Rae Horne, Mr. Horne's wife, as trustee or 
custodian for Mr. Horne's minor daughter, of which Mr. Horne disclaims 
beneficial ownership. A total of 2,851,220 of the shares of Class B Common 
Stock noted in clause (i), the shares noted in clause (ii) through (v), and 
2,000,000 of the shares noted in clause (vi), of this footnote (10,213,906 
shares in the aggregate) are held in a voting trust for which Mr. Horne 
serves as co-trustee. See footnote 6. All shares beneficially owned or which 
may be deemed beneficially owned by Mr. Horne are Class B Common Stock except 
84,848 of the 2,936,068 shares noted in clause (i) and all of the shares 
noted in clause (vii) of this footnote. 

 (6) All shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by Timothy P. 
Horne, all shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by trusts for 
the benefit of Daniel W. Horne, Deborah Horne and Peter W. Horne, 1,355,166 
shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by Frederic B. Horne and 
2,000,000 shares beneficially owned by a trust for the benefit of George B. 
Horne (10,213,906 shares in the aggregate) are subject to the terms of the 
Horne Family Voting Trust Agreement--1991 (the "Voting Trust"). Under the 
terms of the Voting Trust, the two trustees (currently Timothy P. Horne and 
Frederic B. Horne) have sole power to vote all shares subject to the Voting 
Trust. However, as long as Timothy P. Horne and Frederic B. Horne are serving 
as trustees of the Voting Trust, Timothy P. Horne generally has the right to 
vote all shares subject to such trust in the event that the trustees do not 
concur with respect to any proposed action, including any exercise of the 
trustee's right to authorize the withdrawal of shares from the Voting Trust 
(the "Determination Power"). The sole exception to the Determination Power is 
that the concurrence of Timothy P. Horne and Frederic B. Horne is required 
for the voting of shares in connection with any vote involving the election 
or removal of directors of the Company. Under the terms of the Voting Trust, 
Timothy P. Horne, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President and Chief 
Executive Officer of the Company, Frederic B. Horne, a Corporate Vice 
President and a Director of the Company, and George B. Horne, the father of 
Timothy P. Horne 



<PAGE> 


and Frederic B. Horne, may designate up to two successor trustees to succeed 
Timothy P. Horne and Frederic B. Horne, one to be designated as the primary 
designee and the other as the secondary designee. If either Timothy P. Horne 
or Frederic B. Horne ceases for any reason to serve as a trustee, first the 
primary designee and then the secondary designee (if any) would become a 
co-trustee with the remaining Horne brother. Under such circumstances the 
remaining Horne brother would generally have the Determination Power except 
that (i) the concurrence of the remaining Horne brother and the co-trustee 
would be required in connection with any vote involving the election or 
removal of directors of the Company, (ii) the designated successor would vote 
those shares owned by the departed Horne brother and (iii) the designated 
successor would have sole authority with respect to withdrawals of shares 
beneficially owned by the departed Horne brother. If both Timothy P. Horne 
and Frederic B. Horne cease to serve as trustees, first the primary designee 
and then the secondary designee would remain as the sole trustee for the term 
of the Voting Trust. If designated successors become trustees but do not 
survive whichever of Timothy P. Horne or Frederic B. Horne is still serving 
as trustee, that trustee would remain as the sole trustee absent an amendment 
to the Voting Trust. If each of Timothy P. Horne and Frederic B. Horne and 
the two designated successors cease to serve as trustees for any reason, the 
holders of a majority of the voting trust certificates then outstanding have 
the right to designate successor trustees as necessary under the terms of the 
Voting Trust. Pursuant to the power of designation described above, Timothy 
P. Horne, Frederic B. Horne and George B. Horne have designated Noah T. 
Herndon, a Director of the Company, as the primary designee and John 
LeClaire, Esq., a partner in the law firm of Goodwin, Procter & Hoar, as the 
secondary designee, should either Timothy P. Horne or Frederic B. Horne cease 
to serve as a trustee under the Voting Trust. Timothy P. Horne, Frederic B. 
Horne and George B. Horne can collectively agree to revoke the designation of 
any successor before he begins to serve or to appoint a new designated 
successor. If one or more of such Horne family members are unable to take 
such action, this power rests in the survivor or survivors of them. 


The Voting Trust expires on October 31, 2001, subject to extension on or 
after October 31, 1999 by stockholders (including the trustee of any trust 
stockholder, whether or nor such trust is then in existence) who deposited 
shares of Class B Common Stock in the Voting Trust and are then living or, in 
the case of shares in the Voting Trust the original depositor of which (or 
the trustee of the original depositor of which) is not then living, the 
holders of voting trust certificates representing such shares. The Voting 
Trust may be amended by vote of the holders of a majority of the voting trust 
certificates then outstanding and, while one or more of Timothy P. Horne, 
Frederic B. Horne and their successor designated as described in the 
preceding paragraph is serving as trustee, the trustees. In certain cases 
(i.e., changes to the extension, termination and amendment provisions), the 
original depositors must also approve amendments. Shares may not be removed 
from the trust during its term without the consent of the trustees. 

Timothy P. Horne beneficially owns 27.9% of the total beneficial interest in 
the Voting Trust (the "Beneficial Interest") individually, 13.1% of the 
Beneficial Interest as trustee of a revocable trust, 13.1% of the Beneficial 
Interest as trustee of a trust revocable with the consent of the trustee and 
19.6% of the Beneficial Interest as co-trustee of a revocable trust 
(representing an aggregate of 73.7% of the Beneficial Interest). Frederic B. 
Horne beneficially owns 13.3% of the Beneficial Interest individually and 
13.1% of the Beneficial Interest as trustee of a revocable trust 
(representing an aggregate of 26.4% of the Beneficial Interest). George B. 
Horne holds 19.6% of the Beneficial Interest as co-trustee of a revocable 
trust. Voting trust certificates are subject to any restrictions on transfer 
applicable to the stock which they represent.

two-for-one stock split of the Company's Common Stock effected by means of a 
stock dividend payable on March 15, 1994. 

(12) Amount Awarded under the Incentive Plan. 

(13) Mr. Bloss joined the Company in July, 1993.

(1) All options were granted on September 1, 1993, except for the options 
granted to Messrs. Bloss and Pickett which were granted on July 19, 1993 and 
August 10, 1993, respectively. 


(2) Options vest over five years at the rate of 20% per year on successive 
anniversaries of the respective dates on which the options were granted and 
generally terminate upon the earlier of the termination of employment, 
subject to certain exceptions, or ten years from the date of grant. Under the 
terms of the 1986 Incentive Stock Option Plan, the options granted to 
optionees who hold more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes 
of stock of the Company have a maximum duration of five years from the date 
of grant. 

(3) Based upon the market price on the date of grant and an annual 
appreciation at the rate stated on such market price through the expiration 
date of such options. The dollar amounts in these columns are the result of 
calculations of 0% and at the 5% and 10% rates set by the SEC and therefore 
are not intended to forecast possible future appreciation, if any, of the 
Company's stock price. The Company did not use an alternative formula for a 
grant date valuation, as the Company is not aware of any formula which will 
determine with reasonable accuracy a present value based on future unknown or 
volatile factors. 

(4) Awarded under the Company's 1989 Nonqualifed Stock Option Plan (the 
"Nonqualified Plan"). 

(5) Awarded under the Company's 1986 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the 
"Incentive Plan"). 

(6) Under the terms of the Nonqualified Plan, the exercise price of options 
cannot be less than 50% of fair market value. 

(7) Under the terms of the Incentive Plan, the exercise price of options 
cannot be less than 110% of fair market value for optionees who hold more 
than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company 
and 100% of fair market value for all other optionees. 


(8) All share amounts have been doubled and option exercise prices and market 
prices of the underlying security on the date of grant have been halved as a 
result of a two-for-one stock split of the Company's Common Stock effected by 
means of a stock dividend payable on March 15, 1994.

(9) All stock options granted to an individual generally lapse upon the 
termination of employment. Mr. Pickett resigned as Corporate Vice President 
on July 15, 1994. Mr. Grigg resigned as President, Chief Operating Officer 
and Director on January 18, 1994. Therefore, there is no potential realizable 
value to report for either of these individuals.

(4) Share amounts and dollar values are shown as of the dates of exercise 
which occurred prior to the date of the two-for-one stock split referred to 
in Note (5) below. 

(5) All option amounts were doubled and option exercise prices were halved as 
a result of a two-for-one stock split of the Company's Common Stock effected 
by means of a stock dividend payable on March 15, 1994. 

(6) All stock options granted to an individual generally lapse upon the 
termination of employment. Mr. Grigg resigned on January 18, 1994 as 
President, Chief Operating Officer and Director. Therefore, Mr. Grigg 
possessed no options at fiscal year end. 

1991 Non-Employee Directors' Nonqualified Stock Option Plan. Stock options 
granted under the 1991 Non- Employee Directors' Nonqualified Stock Option 
Plan (the "Directors' Plan") are granted automatically and without any 
further action on the part of the Board of Directors as of November 1 in each 
year commencing in 1991 (with respect to each year, the "Grant Date"). The 
Directors' Plan provides that options to purchase 2,000 shares of Class A 
Common Stock (or such lesser amount as shall enable each non-employee 
Director then in office to receive an equal grant in the event that there are 
not sufficient shares of Class A Common Stock for each such non-employee 
Director to receive a grant of 2,000 shares) shall be granted to each 
non-employee Director duly elected and serving as such on each Grant Date. 

The purchase price of shares which may be purchased under the Directors' Plan 
is $22.75, which is equal to the closing sale price of the Class A Common 
Stock on the over-the-counter market on October 18, 1991 (as adjusted for the 
March, 1994 two-for-one split of the Company's Common Stock), as reported by 
the National Market System of NASDAQ. 

Options granted under the Directors' Plan are exercisable when granted, but 
no option is exercisable after the earlier of (a) the date ten years after 
the Grant Date or (b) the date on which the Director to whom such options 
were granted ceases for any reason to serve as a Director of the Company; 
provided, however, that in the event of termination as a result of disability 
or death, the Director or his personal representative may exercise any 
outstanding options not theretofore exercised during the 90-day period 
following such disability or death. 


<PAGE> 
The Directors' Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or an 
authorized committee thereof in accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange 
Act. The Board of Directors or an authorized committee thereof determines the 
form of options granted under the Directors' Plan and makes other 
determinations and interpretations concerning the Directors' Plan and options 
granted thereunder. 

During fiscal 1994, Messrs. Herndon, Moran and Murphy, being all the 
non-employee Directors of the Company on the Grant Date, were each granted 
options to purchase 2,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (as adjusted for the 
March, 1994 stock split) under the Directors' Plan. 

Pension Plan 
Watts Regulator Co., a subsidiary of the Company, maintains a qualified 
non-contributory defined benefit pension plan (the "Pension Plan") for 
eligible salaried employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, including 
the named executive officers specified in the "Summary Compensation Table" 
above and it maintains a nonqualified non-contributory defined benefit 
supplemental plan (the "Supplemental Plan") generally for certain highly 
compensated employees. The eligibility requirements of the Pension Plan are 
attainment of age 21 and one year of service of 1,000 or more hours. The 
assets of the Pension Plan are maintained in a trust fund at State Street 
Bank and Trust Company. The Pension Plan is administered by the Pension Plan 
Committee, which is appointed by the Board of Directors of Watts Regulator 
Co. Annual contributions to the Pension Plan are computed by an actuarial 
firm based on normal pension costs and a portion of past service costs. The 
Pension Plan provides for monthly benefits to, or on behalf of, each covered 
employee at age 65 and has provisions for early retirement after ten years of 
service and attainment of age 55 and surviving spouse benefits after five 
years of service. Covered employees who terminate employment prior to 
retirement with at least five years of service are vested in their accrued 
retirement benefit. The Pension Plan is subject to the Employee Retirement 
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. 

The annual normal retirement benefit for employees under the Pension Plan is 
1.67% of Final Average Compensation (as defined in the Pension Plan) 
multiplied by years of service (maximum 25 years), reduced by the Maximum 
Offset Allowance (as defined in the Pension Plan). For the 1994 Pension Plan 
year, Annual Compensation in excess of $150,000 per year is disregarded under 
the Pension Plan for all purposes. However, benefits accrued prior to the 
1994 plan year may be based on compensation in excess of $150,000. 
Compensation recognized under the Pension Plan includes base salary and 
annual bonus. 

The Supplemental Plan provides additional monthly benefits to individuals who 
were projected to receive reduced benefits as a result of changes made to the 
Pension Plan to comply with the Tax Reform Act of 1986 or who will be 
affected by IRS limits on Pension Plan Compensation. 

The annual normal retirement benefit payable from the Supplemental Plan is 
equal to the difference between (1) the pre-Tax Reform Act promise of 45% of 
Final Average Compensation less 50% of the participant's Social Security 
Benefit, the result prorated for years of service less than 25 and (2) the 
Pension Plan formula above with Annual Compensation in excess of $175,000 
disregarded. For eligible employees who were not plan participants of the 
Pension Plan as of January 1, 1989, the benefit under the Supplemental Plan
is based on the Pension Plan formula set forth above, with Annual 
Compensation in excess of $242,283 disregarded. For the 1994 Plan Year, 
Annual Compensation in excess of $302,863 is disregarded for all purposes 
under the Supplemental Plan. Compensation recognized under the 
Supplemental Plan is W-2 pay. 

The following table illustrates total annual normal retirement benefits 
(payable from both the Pension Plan and from the Supplemental Plan and 
assuming attainment of age 65 during 1994) for various levels of Final 
Average Compensation and years of benefit service, prior to application of 
the Social Security offset, which is an integral part of the benefits payable 
under the Supplemental Plan.

Messrs. Timothy P. Horne, Bloss, McAvoy, McLaurin, Pickett and Grigg have 35, 
1, 13, 16, 5 and 10 years, respectively, of benefit service under the Pension 
Plan. Eligible employees are currently limited to a maximum annual benefit 
under the Pension Plan of $118,800 (subject to cost of living adjustments) 
under Internal Revenue Code requirements regardless of their years of service 
or Final Average Compensation. Accordingly, under current salary levels and 
law, Mr. Timothy P. Horne's annual benefit would be limited to such amount. 

Employment, Termination, Supplemental and Deferred Compensation Agreements 
On May 1, 1993, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. 
Horne providing for annual base salary of at least $570,000 plus other 
benefits and bonuses generally available to senior executives of the Company. 
The Employment Agreement provides for the employment of Mr. Horne as Chairman 
of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company for a period of not 
less than four years and is terminable by Mr. Horne on thirty days notice. 
The Employment Agreement supersedes all prior employment agreements between 
the Company and Mr. Horne. Under the Employment Agreement, if Mr. Horne 
shall, without his consent, cease to be, or cease to have the 
responsibilities and duties of, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the 
Company and Chief Executive Officer other than for a willful illegal act 
relating to the performance of his duties, or if he shall be assigned duties 
inconsistent with those previously performed by him, he shall be entitled to 
terminate his employment upon notice and, if so terminated, he shall be 
entitled to receive a severance payment equal to the greater of (i) the 
compensation which would have been payable under the Employment Agreement at 
the base salary in effect on the termination date for the balance of the 
original term thereof or (ii) two years' compensation at that rate. 

Under a Supplemental Compensation Agreement, effective as of May 1, 1993, 
Timothy P. Horne is entitled to receive annual payments during his lifetime 
following his retirement or other termination of employment with the Company 
equal to the greater of (a) one-half of the average of his base salary for 
the three years immediately preceding such retirement or termination or (b) 
$350,000. During this period Mr. Horne will be available as a consultant to 
the Company for 300 to 500 hours per year. 

Mr. Horne is also entitled under a Deferred Compensation Agreement to 
retirement benefits aggregating $233,333 payable over a period of 28 
consecutive months commencing upon the earliest of his retirement, attainment 
of the age of 65 or other termination of employment. The Deferred 
Compensation Agreement represents compensation which Mr. Horne deferred prior 
to the Company's past three fiscal years. The Company has fully expensed its 
obligations under this Deferred Compensation Agreement. 

Stock Option and Compensation Committee Report 
The Stock Option and Compensation Committee is currently composed of Messrs. 
Murphy and Herndon and Ms. Lane. Mr. Murphy is the Chairman of the Committee. 
The three members of the Stock Option and Compensation Committee are 
non-employee directors and are ineligible to participate in any of the 
compensation plans which are administered by the Committee. 

In accordance with the rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange 
Commission, the Stock Option and Compensation Committee will report on the 
compensation and benefits provided in fiscal 1994 to Timothy P. Horne, David 
A. Bloss, Sr., Kenneth J. McAvoy, Robert T. McLaurin, Martin W. Pickett and 
Charles W. Grigg. 

Compensation Philosophy 
The Company's executive compensation program is designed to promote corporate 
performance and thereby enhance stockholder returns. The Committee believes 
that executives should have a greater portion of their compensation tied 
directly to performance, both of the business and of individual objectives 
established by management. To this end, overall compensation strategies and 
specific compensation plans have been developed to tie a significant portion 
of executive compensation to the success in meeting specified performance 
goals. The overall objectives of this strategy are to attract and retain the 
best possible executive talent, to motivate executives to achieve goals 
inherent in the Company's business strategy, to link executive and 
stockholder interests and to provide compensation packages that recognize 
individual contributions as well promote achievement of business goals. 

The key elements of the Company's executive compensation program consists of 
three components, each of which is intended to serve the overall compensation 
philosophy: base salary, an annual bonus and stock options granted under 
either the 1986 Incentive Stock Option Plan or the 1989 Nonqualified Stock 
Option Plan. These programs, as well as the basis for Mr. Timothy P. Horne's 
compensation in fiscal 1994, are discussed below. 



<PAGE> 


Base Salary 
Base salaries for executive officers are initially determined by evaluating 
the responsibilities of the position held and the experience of the 
individual, coupled with a review of the base salaries for comparable 
positions at other companies. 

Executive's base salaries are reviewed on an annual basis following the close 
of the fiscal year and completion of the audit of the Company's financial 
results by the independent auditors. Adjustments are determined by evaluating 
the performance of the Company and each executive officer. The performance of 
executive officers with functional or administrative responsibilities is 
considered by reviewing the quality and efficiency of administrative and 
functional processes. In the case of executive officers with responsibility 
for one or more business units within the Company, the business results of 
those units are also considered. The Committee also considers, where 
appropriate, certain non-financial performance measures, such as increase in 
market share, market expansion, corporate development and acquisitions, 
achievement of manufacturing efficiencies, improvements in product quality 
and/or relations with customers, suppliers or employees. Adjustments in base 
salary are also made when and as appropriate to reflect changes in job 
responsibilities. 

The Committee believes that the Company's most direct competitors for 
executive talent are not necessarily all of the companies that would be 
included in the peer group established to compare shareholder returns. Thus, 
the compensation packages which may be considered during the Company's 
compensation review process are not the same group as the peer group index in 
the Comparison of Five Year Cumulative Total Return graph included in this 
proxy statement. 

The base salary received by Mr. Timothy P. Horne in fiscal 1994 was $596,838, 
an increase of 4.5% from $570,000 in the prior fiscal year. Under the terms 
of an Employment Agreement with the Company, Mr. Horne's base salary was 
established in 1993 at $570,000, subject to a guaranteed annual adjustment 
equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, 
with such other additional increase, if any, as the Committee deems 
appropriate in its discretion. The CPI increased by approximately 3.0% from 
June 1992 to June 1993, the twelve month period immediately prior to the 
Committee's adjustment in Mr. Horne's base salary for fiscal 1994. 

The key performance measure the Committee used in determining Mr. Horne's 
compensation for fiscal 1994 was its assessment of his ability and dedication 
to enhance the long-term value of the Company through continuation of the 
leadership and vision he has provided during his tenure as Chairman, 
President and CEO. Under his leadership, the sales of the Company have 
experienced a compounded annual growth rate of approximately 17%. 

Annual Bonus 
The Company's executive officers are eligible for an annual cash bonus. 
Individual and corporate performance objectives are established at or near 
the beginning of each fiscal year by the Chairman/President/Chief Executive 
Officer in consultation with the Executive Vice President and the Chief 
Financial Officer. These objectives are then reviewed by the Committee. Once 
established, eligible executives are assigned threshold, target and maximum 
bonus levels. Each participant in the plan is assigned a percentage, based 
upon the participant's position in the Company, of base salary as a target 
upon which the bonus is calculated. 

The Committee believes that a significant portion of executive compensation 
should be tied to an annual bonus potential based on performance of specified 
objectives. During fiscal 1994, the Company's net income increased by 15%. 
This represents a significant reversal from the 5% decline in net income 
experienced during fiscal 1993. As a result, the annual bonus payments for 
fiscal 1994 were more than the prior year with respect to all of the named 
executive officers. 

Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Timothy P. Horne is eligible for an 
annual bonus in an amount to be determined by the Committee based upon such 
factors as the Committee deems appropriate. Mr. Horne received a bonus of 
$84,503 for fiscal 1994. The Committee believes that Mr. Horne's continued 
leadership and focus on the long-term growth of the Company were significant 
factors in contributing to the 15% increase in net income for fiscal 1994. 

Stock Options 
Under the Company's 1986 Incentive Stock Option Plan and 1989 Nonqualified 
Stock Option Plan, both of which were approved by the stockholders, stock 
options may be granted to the Company's executive officers. The 



<PAGE> 

Committee sets guidelines for the size of stock option awards based on 
similar factors as used to determine base salaries and annual bonuses, 
including corporate performance and individual performance against 
objectives. Stock options are the principal vehicle for the payment of 
long-term compensation. This component of compensation is intended to 
motivate executives to improve stock market performance. 

Stock options are designed to align the interests of the executives with 
those of the stockholders as the full benefit of the compensation package 
will not be realized unless stock appreciation occurs over a number of years. 
Stock options under the Incentive Plan are typically granted annually and 
vest 20% per year over five years beginning with the first anniversary of the 
grant date. Under the Incentive Plan, the exercise price equals the market 
price of the Common Stock on the date of the grant with an exception for 
executives who own more than 10% of the combined voting power of the Company; 
for those employees the exercise price is equal to 110% of the market price 
on the date of the grant. Stock options under the Nonqualified Plan have an 
exercise price which may be no less than 50% of the market price on the date 
of the grant. The duration of options under either plan is generally 10 
years, with the exception of grants under the Incentive Plan to owners of 
more than 10% of the combined voting power of the Company, in which case such 
grants terminate after 5 years. 

Options are normally granted in the fall following the close of the fiscal 
year in order to provide the Committee with an opportunity to review the 
fiscal year performance, both of individual and business goals. 

On September 1, 1993, Mr. Timothy P. Horne received options under the 
Nonqualified Plan to purchase 20,000 shares with an exercise price of $34.20, 
which represents 80% of the fair market value of $42.50 on the grant date 
(share amounts and dollar values are shown as of the date of grant which is 
prior to the March, 1994 stock split). This is the same number of options 
which were granted to Mr. Horne for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1992. Mr. 
Horne holds a significant equity interest in the Company. 

Conclusion 
Through the programs described above, a very significant portion of the 
Company's executive compensation is linked to individual and corporate 
performance and stock appreciation. The Stock Option and Compensation 
Committee intends to continue the policy of linking executive compensation to 
corporate performance and enhancement of stockholder returns.

Performance Graph 
Set forth below is a line graph comparing the cumulative total shareholder 
return on the Company's Class A Common Stock, based on the market price of 
the Common Stock, with the cumulative return of companies on the Standard & 
Poor's 500 Stock Index and a peer group of companies engaged in the valve and 
pump industries, for a period of five fiscal years commencing June 30, 1989 
and ended June 30, 1994. The performance indicator of peer group companies 
consists of Keystone International, Inc., Bw Ip, Inc., Zurn Industries, Inc., 
Goulds Pumps, Inc. and Duriron, Inc. The graph assumes that the value of the 
investment in the Company's Class A Common Stock and each index was $100 at 
June 30, 1989 and that all dividends were reinvested.

Certain Transactions 
George B. Horne, the father of Timothy P. Horne and Frederic B. Horne, 
receives monthly payments of $7,959 ($95,505 annually) from the Watts 
Regulator Co. Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees. 

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
During fiscal year 1994, Charles W. Grigg, a former director and executive 
officer of the Company, failed to file with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission ("SEC") on a timely basis reports on Form 4 for the months of 
December 1993 and January 1994 relating to a total of 5 transactions. 

In making these disclosures, the Company has relied solely upon written 
representations of its Directors and executive officers and copies of the 
reports that they have filed with the SEC.

                                  PROPOSAL 2 

                     RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 

Although Delaware law does not require that the selection by the Directors of 
the Company's independent auditors be approved each year by the stockholders, 
the Directors believe it is appropriate to submit the selection of 
independent auditors to the stockholders for their approval and to abide by 
the result of the stockholders' vote. Upon the recommendation of the Audit 
Committee of the Board, the Directors have recommended that the stockholders 
ratify the selection of Ernst & Young as the Company's independent auditors 
for fiscal 1995. 

The Company expects that a representative of Ernst & Young will be present at 
the meeting and will be given the opportunity to make a statement if he or 
she wishes to do so. This representative is also expected to be available to 
respond to questions from stockholders. 

Holders of voting rights sufficient to ratify the selection of Ernst & Young 
as independent auditors have indicated an intention to vote in favor of this 
proposal. 

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL. 

                                  PROPOSAL 3 

            AMENDMENT TO THE RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION 
      AUTHORIZING ADDITIONAL SHARES OF CLASS A AND CLASS B COMMON STOCK 

The presently authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 40,000,000 
shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.10 per share, 13,000,000 shares 
of Class B Common Stock, par value $.10 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of 
Preferred Stock, par value $.10 per share. On August 16, 1994, there were 
issued and outstanding 18,013,522 shares of Class A Common Stock, 11,472,470 
shares of Class B Common Stock and no shares of Preferred Stock. An aggregate 
of 14,684,416 additional shares of Class A Common Stock were reserved for 
issuance under the 1986 Plan, the 1989 Plan, the 1991 Non-Employee Directors' 
Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, and conversion of shares of Class B Common 
Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the 
Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Accordingly, on that date there were 
7,302,062 and 1,527,530 unissued and unreserved shares of Class A Common 
Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively. 

The Board of Directors recommends that the first paragraph of Article FOURTH 
of the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation be amended and 
restated to increase the aggregate number of authorized shares of capital 
stock of the Company, of the Company's Class A Common Stock, and of the 
Company's Class B Common Stock from 58,000,000 shares, 40,000,000 shares, and 
13,000,000 shares to 110,000,000 shares, 80,000,000 shares, and 25,000,000 
shares, respectively. The proposed amendment would not affect the number of 
authorized shares of Preferred Stock, the number of issued and outstanding 
shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock or the relative 
rights, powers or preferences of any class of the Company's capital stock. 
There are no preemptive rights with respect to the Company's Class A Common 
Stock, Class B Common Stock or Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors has 
adopted a resolution approving the proposed amendment, declaring the proposed 
amendment advisable and recommending that it be approved by the Company's 
stockholders at the 1994 Annual Meeting. 

The Board of Directors believes that the authorization of an additional 
40,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and 12,000,000 shares of Class B 
Common Stock will benefit the Company and its stockholders by providing 
additional flexibility for the Board in connection with a variety of 
corporate matters. The newly authorized shares, together with the shares that 
are presently authorized but unissued would be available for such general 
corporate purposes as the Board of Directors may determine, including, 
without limitation, public offerings, private placements, acquisitions, stock 
options and other benefit arrangements and stock dividends or splits. The 
Board of Directors will consider such uses from time to time as circumstances 
warrant and has no current plans to issue shares of Class A Common Stock or 
Class B Common Stock. 

No shares of Class B Common Stock may be issued without the affirmative vote 
of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's Class 
A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, voting as separate classes, except 
where a stock dividend has been declared by the Board of Directors on all of 
the outstanding capital stock of the Company, in which case additional shares 
of Class B Common Stock will be issued as dividends to holders of the Class B 
Common Stock. The newly authorized shares of Class A Common Stock generally 
would 



<PAGE> 

be issuable in the discretion of the Board of Directors without stockholder 
approval, except as required by applicable laws, rules or regulations. In 
this regard, the rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, 
Inc. for issuers whose securities are quoted on its National Market System, 
including the Company, would generally require stockholder approval of 
certain stock issuances including, among others, issuances in connection with 
the acquisition of the stock or assets of another entity that result in an 
increase of 20% or more of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. 
Any issuance of Class A Common Stock (other than stock dividends and stock 
splits) would reduce the percentage of equity ownership and voting power of 
all existing stockholders. 

Vote Required. Amending the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation 
in the manner described above requires the affirmative vote of the holders of 
a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock 
and Class B Common Stock, voting as separate classes. The holders of the 
Company's Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are entitled to one 
vote and ten votes for each share held, respectively. Holders of shares of 
Class B Common Stock sufficient to approve the proposed amendment on behalf 
of such class have indicated an intention to vote for the proposed amendment. 
Assuming receipt of stockholder approval for the proposed amendment, the 
Company will file a Certificate of Amendment effecting the proposed amendment 
with the Secretary of State of Delaware. It is anticipated that the 
Certificate of Amendment will be filed on and become effective at the close 
of business on October 18, 1994. Upon filing of the Certificate of Amendment, 
all stockholders will be bound by the amendments, whether or not they have 
voted in favor of it. 

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL. 

                                OTHER MATTERS 

The Board of Directors is not aware of any other matters which may come 
before the meeting. If any other matters shall properly come before the 
meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to 
vote the proxy in accordance with their judgment on any such matters. 

                            STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS 

In order for any stockholder proposal to be included in the proxy statement 
for the Company's 1995 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, such proposal must be 
received at the principal executive offices of the Company, 815 Chestnut 
Street, North Andover, MA 01845, not later than May 17, 1995 and must satisfy 
certain rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

Nominations and proposals of stockholders may also be submitted to the 
Company for consideration at the 1995 Annual Meeting if certain conditions 
set forth in the Company's By-laws are satisfied, but will not be included in 
the proxy materials unless the conditions set forth in the preceding 
paragraph are satisfied. Such nominations (or other stockholder proposals) 
must be delivered to or mailed and received by the Company not less than 75 
days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the 1994 Annual 
Meeting. If the date of the 1995 Annual Meeting is subsequently moved to a 
date more than seven days (in the case of Director nominations) or ten days 
(in the case of other stockholders proposals) prior to the anniversary date 
of the 1994 Annual Meeting, the Company will publicly disclose such change 
and nominations or other proposals to be considered at the 1995 Annual 
Meeting must be received by the Company not later than the 20th day after 
such disclosure (or, if disclosed more than 75 days prior to such anniversary 
date, the later of 20 days following such disclosure or 75 days before the 
date of the 1995 Annual Meeting, as rescheduled). To submit a nomination or 
other proposal, a stockholder should send the nominee's name or proposal and 
appropriate supporting information required by the Company's By-Laws to the 
Secretary of the Company at the address set forth above.

To Our Shareholders

   Watts  achieved  yet another  record year for both sales and  earnings.  This
performance  marked the 18th  consecutive year of increased sales and 17th of 18
years of record net income.

   Net sales for  Fiscal  1994  increased  11% to $519  million  and net  income
increased 50% to $41 million.  Excluding the unusual  charges and the cumulative
effect of the tax accounting change in Fiscal 1993, net income increased 18% and
the fully diluted earnings per share were $1.38 versus $1.16 last year.

   Acquisition  activity included two Canadian-based  manufacturers of traps and
drains for commercial,  industrial,  and institutional  construction.  Ancon and
Enpoco were acquired  during the first half of Fiscal 1994. With combined annual
sales of approximately $12 million,  these companies have a significant share of
the Canadian  market and will add strong product lines to our domestic  plumbing
product range during Fiscal 1995.

   Many weeks were  devoted to business  trips to Asia to explore  the  region's
unfolding  growth markets,  including  China. The first tangible result of these
efforts  was the  commencement  on  September  1st of a joint  venture  with the
Tianjin Tanggu Valve Plant of the People's Republic of China, in which Watts has
a  60%  controlling  investment.  Tanggu,  an  established  ISO  9001  certified
manufacturer,  sells its butterfly,  globe, and check valves to 29 provinces and
autonomous regions in China and exports to the United States, Europe, Australia,
and  Southeast  Asia.  We expect there will be further  joint  ventures in China
during  Fiscal 1995. In addition to water and  industrial,  our focus will be on
the valve markets for oil and gas, power generation, and central steam heating.

   Sales were flat in Europe owing to the recession which  continued  throughout
Fiscal 1994. Some of the impact of the recession was offset by the rebuilding of
former East  Germany,  and the  developing  markets of Poland,  Czech  Republic,
Hungary,   Slovakia,   and  other  emerging   Eastern  European   markets.   Our
consolidation  of the  acquired  companies  and  product  lines  resulted  in an
operating  profit of 14%. Any increase in sales volume during Fiscal 1995 should
have a meaningful  impact upon  operating  earnings  because of the leverage now
established.

   Europe  continues  to be an area of  opportunity  for growth by  acquisition.
Watts will also  continue to explore the world  markets for joint  ventures  and
acquisitions.  Our near-term  Corporate  objective is to increase  international
business as a percent of total sales.  International  sales,  including  Canada,
increased as a percent of sales from 23% in Fiscal 1993 to 29% during 1994.

   Domestically,  our  growth  was led by the Watts  Regulator  Company  and its
water-oriented  Plumbing and Heating, Water Quality (backflow  preventers),  and
OEM Divisions.  The sales for these divisions increased by 10% from $150 million
in Fiscal 1993 to $165 million in Fiscal  1994.  A return to some  normalization
within their  traditional  markets,  including a strong  rebound in  residential
construction, helped these divisions in their record performance.

   Strong sales growth was also  experienced  within the oil and gas segment led
by KF Industries. KF's sales increased by 14% from $57 million in Fiscal 1993 to
$65 million in Fiscal 1994.  This increase was derived  primarily  from a strong
international market, especially in gas transmission pipeline projects.

   On July 28, 1994,  Watts  announced the acquisition of Jameco  Industries,  a
domestic  manufacturer  of valves and plumbing  hardware sold through  wholesale
plumbing  and  heating  distribution  and to the  DIY  (do-it-yourself)  market.
Jameco,  with sales of $56 million for the twelve  months  ending June 30, 1994,
represents one of our largest  acquisitions to date. Its  complementary fit with
the Watts Regulator  Plumbing and Heating Division should enhance both companies
in presenting  one of the largest arrays of plumbing  products  available to the
U.S. market.

   We remain  committed to our goal of  double-digit  growth with the  ambitious
objective  of reaching  $1 billion in sales by the end of the decade.  Including
the latest acquisitions,  we expect our sales will exceed $600 million in Fiscal
1995. With more financial  resources allocated to new product  development,  the
prospect of improving markets for more of our business segments, and our ongoing
acquisition search, we are optimistic about future growth prospects.

Operational
Strategy

   During the past ten years,  Watts has embarked on an  aggressive  growth plan
resulting in acquisitions of 28 valve companies that  represented  more than 60%
of our sales during  Fiscal 1994. In doing so, we have  diversified  the company
into new valve markets and added important  product lines.  Our sales have grown
at a compounded growth rate of 17% during this period as each year set new sales
records for the company.

   Our ability to  successfully  grow at this pace can be attributed to a number
of factors, but primarily to our commitment and focus on what we know best - the
valve industry.  Having achieved a milestone of over $500 million in sales,  our
next  objective is to double our size within the next five years.  During Fiscal
1994,  we  dedicated  ourselves  to setting the stage for this growth  through a
series of measures:

[Photograph of David A. Bloss, Sr., Executive Vice President]

   1.  Organized  businesses  according  to  markets  served:  Within the United
States,  we have  organized  our  independently-operated  businesses  into  four
strategic  groups focused on major valve  markets:  Plumbing & Heating and Water
Quality,  Municipal Water,  Industrial and Oil & Gas, and Steam.  This alignment
will allow us to offer  extensive  product lines and  capitalize on economies of
scale to achieve greater market share and profitability.

   2.  Expanded  our  international  scope to Asia:  To  achieve  global  market
participation,  we are positioning  ourselves for the tremendous  growth that is
expected in the Asian  markets.  Our initial  focus is the People's  Republic of
China where  significant  capital  expenditures  are  anticipated to develop its
domestic  infrastructure.  Our objective is to leverage our valve technology and
manufacturing  expertise by joint ventures with manufacturers in China who serve
the  region's  valve  markets  for  municipal  water,  oil and  gas,  and  steam
applications.

   3. New product  development:  During  Fiscal  1994,  we directed  substantial
capital and human resources to new product development. A key initiative was the
formation of teams within our businesses to identify, engineer and commercialize
new products to strengthen our position in our target markets.

   4. Improved employee  development and communication:  "Developing  tomorrow's
leaders today" is a pervasive  theme in our efforts to create an  organizational
environment that supports our growth  objectives.  During the past year, we have
organized  employee  work-group  sessions to inspire  creativity and develop key
leadership  skills.   These  ongoing  sessions  are  also  designed  to  promote
information sharing between business units to identify  opportunities to improve
sales and operating performance. We have already seen tangible results.

[Photograph  of Kenneth J. McAvoy,  Chief  Financial  Officer and Executive Vice
President of European Operations]

   We  believe  that these  strategic  moves  will  assist us in our  efforts to
achieve our $1 billion sales objective by the end of this decade.  The following
pages  describe  how we are  addressing  each of our major  market  segments and
identify the significant activities of the past year.

Industrial and
Oil & Gas

   Watts' oil and gas companies supply valves to the major independent petroleum
and  natural  gas  production  companies  worldwide,  while the Watts  Regulator
Industrial  Division supplies valves to the domestic markets for  petrochemical,
process control,  severe service,  and fugitive emission control. The Industrial
and Oil & Gas Group  supplies  a  comprehensive  line of  valves to its  market,
including ball valves, check valves, butterfly valves and needle valves.

   Building on their strength of having one of the broadest  product lines,  the
oil and gas companies and the  Industrial  Division  have  consolidated  most of
their domestic field sales representation. This allows the Group to offer a more
complete valve package to its customers. The integrated marketing effort is more
efficient and less costly than the prior system,  and  eliminates  the potential
for confusion and overlap at the distributor and end-user levels.

   Domestic demand for industrial  valves was comparable to last year.  However,
earnings for the  Industrial  Division grew as cost reduction  efforts,  product
consolidations  and a greater emphasis on engineered  products improved margins.
Domestic  chemical  and  petrochemical  companies  are  shifting  their  capital
investment  projects  to  offshore  locations,  primarily  to be  closer  to raw
material  extraction  sites.  Therefore,  we are  targeting  sales and marketing
efforts  to  become  a more  significant  participant  in  valve  purchases  for
international projects during Fiscal 1995. Operating the Industrial Division and
oil and gas  companies as one group with  coordinated  distribution  for the two
market segments  provides an efficient and expedient method of delivering Watts'
valves to the changing world markets.

   Domestic  demand for oil and gas  products  increased  moderately  during the
fiscal  year,  while  international  results,  reflecting  the ever more  global
economy,  showed robust growth.  KF Industries  actively  marketed  overseas and
supported these efforts with a strong new product  development program and rapid
deliveries. Overall, the oil and gas business enjoyed strong growth in sales and
earnings.

   During the year,  the Group  leveraged  its  resources by opening a new valve
automation and repair center in Houston,  Texas, to provide distributors and end
users  with  factory-authorized  automation  and  repair of  quarter-turn  valve
products.  Automation and repair will strengthen Watts' competitive  position in
the  domestic  and  international  marketplace.   Furthermore,   the  Group  has
established  regional  offices  in  Singapore  and London  and is  focusing  its
attention on developing joint ventures in China,  Indonesia and Venezuela during
the coming year.

Gas]

   Allied with our  Industrial  Division is Circle Seal  Controls,  Inc.,  which
supplies valves to the aerospace, industrial and cryogenic markets.

Plumbing & Heating
and Water Quality

   Watts  serves the  Plumbing  and Heating  and Water  Quality  markets  with a
comprehensive  line of valve  products.  These include  temperature and pressure
relief valves for water  heaters,  water  pressure  reducing  valves to regulate
water pressures within the home and high-rise buildings, and backflow preventers
to protect potable water systems from the potential hazard of water  backflowing
from  contaminated  sources  downstream.  The  application  of these products is
generally  enforced by strict  national and regional  plumbing codes and, in the
case of backflow  preventers,  is supported by federal  legislation  such as the
Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974.

   Watts  manufactures  many other  speciality and commodity  products for these
markets including  temperature control valves, ball valves,  pipeline strainers,
hydronic heating  specialities,  electric  motorized  valves,  thermal expansion
tanks,  and other  plumbing and heating  products to provide  customers with the
broadest  range of valves and  assemblies.  Watts'  customer  base includes over
6,000 plumbing and heating wholesalers who resell to mechanical  contractors and
installing  plumbers.  Watts'  wholesalers  have the  advantage of buying a full
product range from a single source.

[Photo of Kevin R. Sweeney,  Executive Vice President,  Water Products  Division
and Paul A. Lacourciere, Executive Vice President, Watts Regulator Company]

   Domestic  demand for plumbing and heating and water quality valves  increased
significantly  during the year owing  primarily to the resurgence of residential
housing construction. Sales of water quality valves, namely backflow preventers,
also  increased  for the first time in three  years as their  principal  market,
commercial  construction,  finally  tempered  its  decline,  and  there was more
stringent  enforcement of the plumbing codes governing the installation of these
products.

   We also expanded sales to original equipment  manufacturers (OEMs).  Standard
catalog  products were  augmented  with valves  custom  designed to the exacting
specifications  of  individual  OEM  requirements,  thereby  stimulating a sales
increase for this division of nearly 20%.

   The replacement  demand for Watts' products has  consistently  offset some of
the impact of interest-rate-sensitive  construction cycles. Watts estimates that
approximately  40% of sales derived from these markets are  replacement  driven.
With market  leadership for its principal valves and an installed base in excess
of 100 million valves, Watts' prospects for increasing  replacement business are
excellent.

[Photo of Ernest E. Elliott, Vice President, Watts Products Division]

   The flagship  company serving these markets is the Watts  Regulator  Company,
founded in 1874.  Its seven  domestic  manufacturing  plants produce over 65,000
valves per day,  providing  all of the  benefits  of high  volume  manufacturing
including significant purchasing power.

   The  European   counterpart   of  Watts   Regulator   is  Intermes,   S.p.A.,
headquartered  in Italy.  Intermes has an extensive  range of valve  products to
satisfy the demands of diverse  wholesaler  requirements  in the major  European
markets,  including  Germany,  France,  Italy,  Holland,  the Benelux countries,
Spain, Portugal, and, more recently, Eastern European countries as well. Most of
the  Intermes  product  range  mirrors  the  valve  products  produced  by Watts
Regulator,  except the Intermes  products  are custom  designed for the European
market  requirements  since  product  styling  and  performance  characteristics
generally differ from those of the United States.

[Photo of Jean-Marc Sassier, Managing Director, Watts Industries Europe]

   Watts SFR in France and Watts Ocean in Holland augment the Intermes line with
relief valves, pressure regulators,  and backflow preventers.  The products from
all companies are combined into a single  product  offering to several  thousand
plumbing and heating wholesalers throughout the major European markets.

   The enforcement of European plumbing codes for pressure relief valves,  water
pressure regulators,  and backflow preventers offers many of the same advantages
in Europe for Intermes as in the domestic market for Watts Regulator.

   The German  sales arm of  Intermes,  MTR GmbH,  headquartered  in  Stuttgart,
offers  excellent future market  opportunities in Eastern Europe.  Initial sales
during the past year have been  realized  in Poland,  Hungary,  Czech  Republic,
Slovakia,  and other emerging markets. While Germany has been beleaguered with a
serious recession throughout Fiscal 1994,  construction and remodeling in former
East Germany have provided some support to Watts' sales base.  Overall sales for
Fiscal  1994 for Watts  Europe  were  flat,  but there  are some  prospects  for
gradually  improving market conditions in Western Europe and continued growth in
Eastern Europe.

[Photo of Victor L. Pitt, President, Watts Industries (Canada) Inc.]

   Watts Canada also enjoyed a year of increasing  sales as the Canadian economy
partially recovered from its long-term recession. Watts has a large market share
in Canada which is supported by three manufacturing operations. During the year,
Watts  acquired  the leading  Canadian  manufacturer  of floor and roof  drains,
intercepters,  backwater  valves,  and yard  hydrants  when it purchased  LeHage
Industries in July,  1993. The Ancon Division of LeHage presents an entirely new
range of products to  complement  Watts'  plumbing  line of valves sold  through
wholesale  distribution in Canada and the United States. As a further complement
to the Ancon line of products,  Watts Canada acquired Enpoco in November,  1993.
The  introduction  of  these  product  lines  into  the  U.S.  is one of  Watts'
priorities for growth during the new fiscal year.

Municipal Water

   Watts'  Municipal  Water  Group  manufactures  valves that are widely used to
control  the flow,  pressure  and level of water in systems  for  potable  water
supply,  wastewater  treatment,  industrial  process water and cooling water for
power  generation.  The  performance  and  quality of these  valves  enhance the
reliability and efficiency of the systems in which they are installed.

   Demand  in  the  municipal  water  market  comes  from a  combination  of new
construction,  expansion,  renovation and repair.  The  obsolescence  of systems
installed after the second World War, a shifting and expanding  population,  and
federal  regulations  regarding  clean  water  drive a  continuing  need for the
Group's  products.  Federal and state funding  limitations  sometimes  delay the
implementation of some of these projects which are highly competitive.

[Photo of Edward G. Holtgraver, Group Vice President, Municipal Water]

   Henry Pratt  Company is a leading  producer of butterfly  and ball valves for
municipal  water supply.  In power  generation,  Henry Pratt is one of a limited
number of companies certified to supply valves to nuclear plants. With its large
installed base,  Henry Pratt is positioned to benefit from the growing  business
for maintenance and repair as domestic nuclear power plants age.

   James Jones Company markets bronze fire hydrants, ball valves, curb stops and
related  bronze  products  for public and  private  potable  water  distribution
systems.  It has experienced growth from improved customer service,  quality and
delivery  lead times,  and a renewed  emphasis on its core products and regional
markets.  Profits have  improved due to increased  volumes and  aggressive  cost
management.  James  Jones is  currently  active  in 11  states,  with  plans for
controlled  expansion  within the United  States and certain  export  markets as
regionally  focused products are developed.  With the acquisition of EBCO, Watts
provides a similar line of products for the United Kingdom.

   The   Watts   Automatic    Control   Valve   (ACV)   is   a   pilot-operated,
diaphragm-actuated,  automatic hydraulic control valve used for water, fuels and
other low to  medium  viscosity  liquids.  Henry  Pratt  will  market  Watts ACV
products with its project  specification and bid packages during Fiscal 1995. By
providing a more comprehensive,  integrated product package, the Municipal Water
Group will meet more of its  customers'  needs and make it more  attractive  for
independent  distributors  to promote the line. At the same time,  the companies
will maintain the independence necessary to provide the customer  responsiveness
that has been key to their competitive success.

   Serving the municipal  water valve market in the People's  Republic of China,
Tianjin  Tanggu  Watts Valve  Company,  Ltd. is Watts'  first effort to leverage
domestic valve  technology  and  manufacturing  expertise in this  international
market.

Steam

   The Steam Group  companies  provide  products  that control the efficient and
safe use of steam - recognized as an economical  method of  transferring  energy
from one place to another.

   Watts' four companies in this segment address a wide variety of markets, from
HVAC,  where  steam  is used in  heating  and  cooling  applications,  to  power
generation,  industrial  process,  and  propulsion  systems on U.S.  Navy ships.
Spence  Engineering  is a leader in the control of HVAC steam and is also active
in industrial  plants.  Leslie Controls is both the premier  supplier of control
valves to the U.S. Navy and a supplier of products that are used in a variety of
industrial and commercial steam  applications.  Nicholson Steam Trap is a leader
in thermostatic  trap technology,  and the R. G. Laurence  Company  manufactures
products primarily for the gas turbine industry.

[Photo of Charles S. Wolley, Group Vice President, Steam]

   Overall,  the long-term market outlook for steam generation is flat, but some
new products and ongoing maintenance and repair opportunities should continue to
support  moderate  growth.   Steam  unleashes  a  destructive  force  on  system
components,  creating a demand for  replacement  parts that is  predictable  and
steady.  Proper  handling of steam is also critical for safety.  Therefore,  the
Steam   Group's   approach   of  selling   through   technical   representatives
concentrating  on safety,  reliability,  and proper system design  creates added
value for its customer base.

   Growth in 1994 was led by a rebound in sales to the U.S. Navy and the results
of a strong new product development program.  Leslie introduced the Aeroflow(TM)
control  valve which,  coupled with its digital  positioning  system and optical
feedback,  delivers precision previously unattainable within the power industry.
Spence  Engineering  strengthened  its  position  in  HVAC  with  a  significant
expansion  of its ASME safety  relief  valve  product  line,  and R.G.  Laurence
experienced  strong  growth  in the gas  turbine  industry  by  redesigning  its
Soli-Con(TM) line of solenoid control valves to meet changing OEM requirements.

   Cost  management  remains  a focus.  The  recently  completed  relocation  of
Nicholson's  manufacturing  operations from Wilkes-Barre,  Pennsylvania,  to the
Spence  facility in Walden,  New York,  will reduce  operating costs and improve
manufacturing  capabilities.  Also, significant  manufacturing cost improvements
were  realized  through  product  engineering  efforts.

International
Sourcing

     The  global   economy   presents   opportunities   to   procure   materials
internationally.  Watts is sourcing worldwide for competitive  supplies of lower
cost steel,  iron and bronze  castings,  and other  commodity  materials,  while
maintaining  sound  partnerships  with the most progressive and competitive U.S.
suppliers.  Through a careful blending process, our lower cost base will benefit
and complement our capital investment program and position Watts for consistent,
profitable growth.

Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Directors
Watts Industries, Inc.

   We have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Watts
Industries,  Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1994 and 1993, and the related
statements of consolidated  earnings,  consolidated  stockholders'  equity,  and
consolidated cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30,
1994.  These  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.  We did not audit the 1994 and 1993  financial
statements of Watts  Industries  Europe B.V., a wholly-owned  subsidiary,  which
statements  reflect total assets of $107,729,000 and $100,219,000 as of June 30,
1994 and 1993, respectively,  and total revenues of $79,709,000 and $57,645,000,
for the years then ended.  Those 1994 and 1993  statements were audited by other
auditors,  Deloitte & Touche,  whose  report has been  furnished  to us, and our
opinion,  insofar as it relates to data  included  for Watts  Industries  Europe
B.V., is based solely on the report of the other auditors.

   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 and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

   In our  opinion,  based on our audits and the report of other  auditors,  the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated  financial position of Watts Industries,  Inc. and subsidiaries
at June 30, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated  results of their operations and
their cash flows for each of the three years in the period  ended June 30, 1994,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

   As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, in 1993, the
Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Principles of Consolidation:  The consolidated  financial  statements include
the accounts of Watts Industries,  Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries (the
Company).  Upon  consolidation,   all  significant   intercompany  accounts  and
transactions are eliminated.

   Foreign Currency Translation:  Balance sheet accounts of foreign subsidiaries
are translated  into United States dollars at fiscal  year-end  exchange  rates.
Operating  accounts are translated at average  exchange rates for each year. Net
translation  gains or losses are  adjusted  directly to a separate  component of
stockholders' equity.

   Cash  Equivalents and Short-Term  Investments:  Cash  equivalents  consist of
investments  having  maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Short-term  investments  consist of corporate  and municipal  bonds,  and mutual
funds  whose  portfolios   consist   principally  of  United  States  Government
securities.  Short-term  investments  are  valued  at cost,  which  approximates
market.

   In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of  Financial  Accounting  Standard  (SFAS) No.  115,  "Accounting  for  Certain
Investments  in Debt and Equity  Securities."  This  Statement will be effective
beginning in fiscal year 1995, and expands the use of fair value  accounting and
reporting for certain investments in debt and equity securities, but retains the
use of the amortized cost method for those  investments  in debt  securities for
which the holder has the positive  intent and ability to hold to  maturity.  The
Company  believes  that  adoption of this  Standard  will not have a significant
effect on its results of operations or financial condition.

   Concentrations  of  Credit  Risk:  Financial  instruments  which  potentially
subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist  principally of cash
equivalents,  short-term  investments and trade receivables.  The Company places
its cash  equivalents  and  short-term  investments  with high  credit,  quality
financial  institutions and, by policy,  limits the amount of credit exposure to
any one  financial  institution.  Concentrations  of credit risk with respect to
trade  receivables are limited due to the large number of customers  included in
the  Company's   customer  base  and  their  dispersion  across  many  different
industries  and  geographic  areas.  As of June 30,  1994,  the  Company  had no
significant concentrations of credit risk.

   Inventories:  Inventories are stated at cost (principally first-in, first-out
method)  not in  excess  of  net  realizable  value.  Inventories  amounting  to
$14,050,000  at June 30, 1994 and  $14,019,000 at June 30, 1993 are valued using
the last-in,  first-out method (LIFO),  which approximates  current  replacement
cost.

   Property, Plant and Equipment:  Property, plant and equipment are recorded at
acquired  cost.  Depreciation  is provided on the  straight-line  basis over the
estimated useful lives of the assets.

   Income Taxes:  Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences
between  financial  statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities for
which income tax benefits and obligations will be realized in future years.

   Goodwill:  Goodwill  represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net
assets of businesses acquired. This balance is amortized over 40 years using the
straight-line  method. To the extent the Company makes payments under contingent
earn-out arrangements related to businesses  previously acquired,  those amounts
are recorded as additional goodwill.

   The  carrying  value of goodwill  is reviewed if the facts and  circumstances
suggest that it may be impaired. If this review indicates that goodwill will not
be recoverable, as determined based on the undiscounted cash flows of the entity
acquired over the remaining amortization period, the Company's carrying value of
the goodwill would be reduced to its fair value.

   Earnings  Per  Common  Share:  Earnings  per  common  share is based upon the
weighted average number of Class A and B Common Shares  outstanding  during each
period and the dilutive effect of Class A Common Stock options.  Shares of Class
A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding Convertible  Subordinated
Debentures were included in the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share,
up to the date of  conversion  on March 15, 1992.  Had the  conversion  of these
Debentures  taken place at the beginning of 1992,  primary earnings per share in
1992 would have been $1.27.

   Basis  of   Presentation:   Certain  amounts  in  1993  and  1992  have  been
reclassified to permit comparison with the 1994 presentation.

2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

   On November 6, 1992,  the Company  acquired  100% of the  outstanding  common
stock of Intermes, a plumbing and heating valve manufacturer, for $28.3 million.

2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS(cont'd.)
   On September 30, 1991, the Company  acquired 100% of the  outstanding  common
stock of Henry  Pratt  Company  for cash of $57.2  million.  In  addition,  upon
Pratt's  achievement of targeted  operating  income levels,  the Company will be
required to make annual  contingent  payments  through 1997 of $1.3 million plus
25% of amounts in excess of targeted operating income levels.

   In addition,  the Company acquired other valve manufacturers for cash of $4.8
million,  $13.5  million  and $2.4  million  in  fiscal  1994,  1993  and  1992,
respectively.

   These  acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method. The results
of  operations  of the  acquired  businesses  are  included in the  consolidated
financial statements from the dates of acquisition.

   The following unaudited pro forma consolidated  results of operations for the
years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992 are presented as if the acquisitions  made in
1993  and  1992  had  been  made  at the  beginning  of the  year in  which  the
acquisitions  occurred,  and at the beginning of the year immediately  preceding
the year of the  acquisitions.  The effects of acquisitions made in 1994 are not
material and, accordingly, have been excluded from the pro forma presentation.

                                                       1993             1992

   The pro forma  results of operations  give effect to interest  costs of funds
used to finance the  acquisitions  and include  adjustments for depreciation and
amortization resulting from the allocation of the costs of the acquisitions. The
unaudited  pro forma  information  is not  necessarily  indicative of either the
results of operations that would have occurred had the purchase been made during
the periods presented, or the future results of the combined operations.

3. UNUSUAL CHARGES

   In December 1992, the Company recorded  unusual charges of $7 million.  These
unusual charges were related to environmental  matters and costs associated with
the downsizing and restructuring of certain previously acquired  companies.  The
charges  include   approximately  $2  million  relating  to  the  resolution  of
environmental  litigation  arising  under  CERCLA  (Comprehensive  Environmental
Response,  Compensation  and Liability Act) involving a  manufacturing  facility
sold in  1978,  and  clean-up  costs  principally  relating  to  certain  of the
Company's  foundry  operations;  a  $3  million  accrual  for  estimated  future
environmental  clean-up costs;  and $2 million relating to downsizing of certain
previously  acquired  operations which have been negatively  impacted by reduced
military spending and to the consolidation and relocation of the operations of a
previously acquired business.

4. INCOME TAXES

   The Company adopted SFAS Statement No. 109 ("Accounting for Income Taxes") as
of the beginning of fiscal year 1993.  The  cumulative  effect on prior years of
this change in accounting  principle  decreased fiscal 1993 net earnings by $3.1
million  or $.10 per share,  and is  reported  separately  in the  statement  of
consolidated  earnings for the year ended June 30, 1993.  The effect of adopting
Statement 109, including its application to prior business combinations, did not
have a material impact on 1993 pre-tax earnings.

   At June 30, 1994, the Company has foreign net operating loss carryforwards of
$6.2 million for income tax purposes  that expire in years 1995 through 2004. In
addition,  foreign net operating  losses of $3.4 million can be carried  forward
indefinitely.  These  carryforwards  resulted  primarily from the Company's 1993
business acquisitions.

   The  significant  components of the Company's  deferred tax  liabilities  and
assets are as follows:
                                                             June 30

4. INCOME TAXES (cont'd.)

    The provision for income taxes is based on the following pre-tax earnings:

                                  1994               1993               1992

    Total income taxes  reported are different  than would have been computed by
applying the federal  statutory tax rate to earnings  before  income taxes.  The
reasons for this difference are as follows:

                                                                       Deferred

    Undistributed  earnings of the Company's  foreign  subsidiaries  amounted to
approximately  $36 million,  $29 million and $25 million at June 30, 1994,  1993
and  1992  respectively.  Those  earnings  are  considered  to  be  indefinitely
reinvested  and,  accordingly,  no provision  for U.S.  federal and state income
taxes has been provided thereon. Upon distribution of those earnings in the form
of  dividends or  otherwise,  the Company  would be subject to both U.S.  income
taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and  withholding  taxes
payable to the various foreign countries.

    Determination  of the  amount of U.S.  income  tax  liability  that would be
incurred is not  practicable  because of the  complexities  associated  with its
hypothetical  calculation;  however,  unrecognized  foreign tax credits would be
available to reduce some portion of any U.S.  income tax liability.  Withholding
taxes of  approximately  $2.8 million  would be payable upon  remittance  of all
previously unremitted earnings at June 30, 1994.

    The Company made income tax  payments of $31.4  million,  $20.5  million and
$27.6 million in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

     On November 26, 1991, the Company issued  $75,000,000  principal  amount of
8-3/8% Notes Due 2003. Interest is payable semiannually on December 1 and June 1
each year.  The notes are not subject to optional  redemption  prior to maturity
and  there are no  sinking  fund  payments  required.  The notes are  considered
general  unsecured  obligations  of the Company.  The notes  include  covenants,
which,  among other things,  restrict  borrowings  secured by certain assets and
certain  sale and  leaseback  transactions  by the  Company  or any  "restricted
subsidiary"  (as  defined),  subject to certain  exceptions,  including  secured
borrowings not exceeding 10% of the Company's consolidated stockholders' equity,
unless the notes are secured ratably with such borrowings.

    Principal  payments  during  each of the next five  fiscal  years are due as
follows:  1995-$1,141,000;   1996-$883,000;  1997-$682,000;  1998-$552,000;  and
1999-$5,457,000. Interest paid during fiscal 1994 and 1993 approximates interest
expense.

7. COMMON STOCK

    On January 18, 1994,  the Board of Directors  declared a  two-for-one  stock
split,  effective  March 15, 1994,  in the form of a dividend of one  additional
share of the  Company's  Common  Stock  (Class A and B) for each share  owned by
stockholders  of record at the close of  business  on March 1,  1994.  Par value
remained  at $.10 per share.  Earnings  per  share,  cash  dividends  per share,
weighted  average  common  shares  outstanding  and the stock  option plan share
information  have been  restated for all periods  presented to reflect the stock
split.

   During 1994, the Company  repurchased  342,700 shares of Class A Common Stock
prior to the stock split for $12.1 million.

   The Class A Common  Stock and Class B Common  Stock have equal  dividend  and
liquidation rights. Each share of the Company's Class A Common Stock is entitled
to one vote on all matters  submitted to stockholders  and each share of Class B
Common  Stock is  entitled to ten votes on all such  matters.  Shares of Class B
Common  Stock  are  convertible  into  shares  of  Class A  Common  Stock,  on a
one-to-one basis, at the option of the holder.

    The  Company  has  reserved a total of  14,663,116  shares of Class A Common
Stock for issuance under its Incentive Stock Option Plan, its Nonqualified Stock
Option Plan and conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock into Class A Common
Stock.

8. QUALIFIED AND NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLANS

    The Company has a qualified  incentive stock option plan whereunder  options
to purchase up to 1,980,000 shares of Class A Common Stock may be granted to key
employees.  Options are  granted at an exercise  price equal to 100% of the fair
market value per share on the date of grant.  At June 30, 1994,  the Company has
reserved 1,495,800 shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance under the plan.

    The Company also has a nonqualified  stock option plan whereunder options to
purchase up to  2,000,000  shares of Class A Common  Stock may be granted to key
employees.  Options are granted at an exercise price  determined by the Board of
Directors,  but not less than 50% of the fair market value per share on the date
of grant. At June 30, 1994, the Company has reserved 1,694,846 shares of Class A
Common Stock for issuance under the plan.
                                                                              17

9. RETIREMENT BENEFITS

    The Company has defined benefit pension plans covering  substantially all of
its domestic  nonunion  employees.  Plans covering  salaried  employees  provide
pension  benefits  that  are  based  on  years  of  service  and the  employee's
compensation  during the last five years of employment.  Plans  covering  hourly
employees generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service.
The Company's  funding policy is to contribute  annually the maximum amount that
can be deducted for federal income tax purposes.  Contributions  are intended to
provide  not only for  benefits  attributable  to service to date,  but also for
those expected to be earned in the future.

    The following table sets forth the components of pension expense, the funded
status  and  amounts  recognized  in the  consolidated  balance  sheets  for the
Company's domestic defined benefit pension plans.  Defined benefit plans for the
Company's  foreign  subsidiaries  are not  material.  The Company  computes  its
pension obligations and expense using March 31 as its measurement date.

</TABLE>

   The  weighted   average   discount  rate  and  rate  of  increase  in  future
compensation  levels used in  determining  the  actuarial  present  value of the
projected  benefit  obligation were  approximately 8% and 6%,  respectively,  at
March 31, 1994 and 1993. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets in
1994, 1993 and 1992 was approximately 8%.

   In November  1992,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 112  "Employers'  Accounting for
Postemployment  Benefits."  The Statement will be effective for fiscal year 1995
and requires in certain cases that estimated costs of postemployment benefits be
recognized  over the  service  lives of  employees.  The Company  believes  that
adoption  of the  Standard  will not have a  material  effect on its  results of
operations or financial condition.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

   The  Company is engaged in various  claims and  litigation  arising  from its
operations.  In the opinion of management,  uninsured losses, if any,  resulting
from these matters will not have a material  adverse impact on the  consolidated
financial position or future results of operations of the Company.

   The Company has been named a  potentially  responsible  party with respect to
identified  contaminated sites. The level of contamination  varies significantly
from site to site and  remediation  efforts  that are  underway  are in  various
stages.  In certain cases,  remediation has not begun. The Company has evaluated
its potential  exposure  based on all currently  available  information  and has
recorded an estimate of its liability for environmental matters.

     With  respect  to one  contaminated  site  included  on  the  Environmental
Protection  Agency's National Priorities List, the Company expects to be named a
potentially  responsible party. The process of determining the causes and extent
of  contamination,  the cost of remediation and the method to allocate that cost
among those  ultimately  determined to be  responsible is in a very early stage.
Accordingly,  the ultimate  outcome of this matter  cannot be determined at this
time.

11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

   The following method and assumptions were used by the Company to estimate the
fair value of its financial statements:

   Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments

   The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet approximate fair value.

   Long-Term Debt

     The fair value of the Company's  8-3/8% Notes,  Due 2003 is based on quoted
market  prices.  The fair  value  of other  long-term  debt is  estimated  using
discounted  cash flow  analyses,  based on the Company's  incremental  borrowing
rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

   The carrying amount and the estimated fair market value of the Company's long
term debt are as follows:

   During  July,  the  Company  purchased a domestic  manufacturer  of metal and
plastic water supply products with annual revenues of approximately  $56 million
for $35.2  million in cash.  The Company also  entered into a joint  venture for
$8.5 million with a valve manufacturer located in the People's Republic of China
in exchange for a 60% interest in the Chinese joint venture.

   During August,  the Company entered into a five year agreement with a banking
syndicate  which  permits  the  Company  to borrow up to $125  million  under an
unsecured  line of  credit  facility.  Borrowings  under  the  agreement  accrue
interest at LIBOR, plus 25 basis points.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1994 Compared to
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1993

   Net sales increased  $52,745,000  (11.3%) to $518,541,000.  This increase was
attributable  to the  inclusion  of the net  sales  of  acquired  companies  and
increased  unit shipments of certain  product lines.  The net sales of Intermes,
S.p.A.  ("Intermes")  acquired in November 1992,  Edward Barber Company ("EBCO")
acquired in May 1993, Ancon Products,  Inc. ("Ancon") acquired in July 1993, and
Enpoco  Canada,  Ltd.  ("Enpoco")  acquired in November  1993, all foreign based
companies,  represented  approximately  56% of the  increase.  The  Company  had
increased unit shipments of plumbing and heating  valves,  water quality valves,
and oil and gas valves.  These increases were partially offset by decreased unit
shipments of municipal water valves and aerospace/military valves. International
sales  increased from 23% to 29% of total sales,  principally as a result of the
acquisitions discussed above. Export sales increased almost $14,000,000 (44%) to
$45,400,000,  primarily  due to increased  shipments of oil and gas valves.  The
Company intends to maintain its strategy of seeking acquisition opportunities as
well as developing its international sales to achieve sales growth.

   Gross profit increased $22,512,000 (13.0%) to $196,205,000 and increased as a
percentage  of net sales  from 37.3% to 37.8%.  This  increased  percentage  was
primarily  attributable  to improved  manufacturing  performance  and  increased
volume,  particularly in the plumbing and heating and water quality segments, as
well as  decreased  costs of bronze  ingot.  During  fiscal  1995,  the  Company
anticipates  the cost of ingot to rise which may  unfavorably  impact its margin
depending on its ability to increase selling prices.

   Selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased $3,047,000 (2.6%) to
$121,597,000.  The Company  recorded  $7,000,000 of unusual  charges in the year
ended June 30,  1993 for  environmental  matters and costs  associated  with the
downsizing and restructuring of certain acquired companies. Excluding the effect
of  this  charge,  selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  would  have
increased $10,047,000 (9.0%) in the period ended June 30, 1994. This increase is
primarily  attributable  to the inclusion of the expenses of acquired  companies
and  increased  commissions  associated  with the  higher  sales  volume.  These
increases were partially offset by decreased spending at several subsidiaries as
a result of downsizing programs implemented during the last fiscal year.

   The Company from time to time is involved with environmental  proceedings and
incurs costs on an ongoing basis related to environmental  matters.  The Company
has been or expects to be named a potentially  responsible party with respect to
currently  identified  contaminated  sites,  which are in various  stages of the
remediation  process.  The Company has evaluated its potential exposure based on
all  currently  available  information  and has  recorded  its  estimate  of its
liability for environmental matters. The ultimate outcome of these environmental
matters cannot be determined. The Company currently anticipates that it will not
incur  significant  expenditures  in fiscal 1995 in connection with any of these
environmentally  contaminated  sites.  Please  see  Note 10 to the  accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

   Interest income decreased  $1,411,000  (32.1%) to $2,986,000 due to decreased
levels of cash and short-term investments.

   Net earnings increased $13,736,000 (50.4%) to $41,010,000. If the Company had
not incurred the $7,000,000 of unusual charges and the cumulative  effect of the
change in accounting  method in fiscal 1993,  net earnings  would have increased
18.5%.  The Company's  return on  investment  for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1994 was 11.8%.  The Company's  return on  investment  for the fiscal year ended
June 30,  1993  before the change in  accounting  method and the  $7,000,000  of
unusual  charges was 10.4%.  This compares to 13.7% for fiscal year 1992,  15.8%
for fiscal year 1991,  and 17.6% for fiscal year 1990.  The primary  reasons for
these declining  percentages is the increase in stockholders'  equity associated
with the conversion of the Company's  $44,000,000  Convertible  Debentures on or
prior to March 15, 1992 and the sale on February  28, 1991 of 920,000  shares of
Class A Common Stock in a public offering at a price to the public of $40.50 per
share.   Stockholders'  equity  increased  $78,732,000  as  a  result  of  these
transactions.  These  transactions have also resulted in a relatively high level
of cash and short-term  investments  which also had the effect of decreasing the


22

<PAGE>
return on  investment  ratio due to the lower  return  earned on these assets as
compared to the return earned on operating assets.

   The  change in foreign  exchange  rates  since  June 30,  1993 did not have a
material  impact on the results of operations or the financial  condition of the
Company.

   The weighted  average  number of common  shares,  after giving  effect to the
two-for-one  stock split  described in Note 7 to the  accompanying  consolidated
financial statements,  outstanding on June 30, 1994 decreased to 29,674,464 from
30,089,898  for primary  earnings per share.  This decrease is the result of the
repurchase by the Company,  prior to the stock split, of 342,700 shares of Class
A Common Stock.  Primary and fully diluted earnings per share were $1.38 for the
period  ended June 30, 1994  compared to $1.16  before  unusual  charges and the
cumulative  effect of the change in  accounting  method for the period  June 30,
1993.

Results of Operations
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1993 Compared to
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1992

    Net sales increased  $41,988,000  (9.9%) to $465,796,000.  This increase was
attributable  exclusively  to  the  inclusion  of  the  net  sales  of  acquired
companies,  including the net sales of Intermes, S.p.A. ("Intermes") acquired in
November  1992,  Henry  Pratt  Company  ("Pratt")  acquired in  September  1991,
Waletzko  Armaturen  GmbH  ("Waletzko")  acquired  in July 1992,  Edward  Barber
Company (EBCO)  acquired in May 1993,  and Rockford  Valve Company  ("Rockford")
acquired in August 1992. Without the net sales of these acquired companies,  net
sales for  fiscal  year 1993  would  have been equal to the net sales for fiscal
year 1992.  The Company had  increased  unit  shipments  of plumbing and heating
valves,  water flow  control  valves,  and oil and gas  valves.  However,  these
increases were offset by decreased unit shipments of steam control valves to the
Navy,  and  aerospace/military  valves.  The Company  believes the  reduction in
Navy/military sales to be a long-term condition.  The Company also believes that
as long as the general  economic  environment  remains at its current level,  it
will be difficult  to achieve  meaningful  internal  sales  growth.  The Company
intends to maintain its strategy of seeking acquisition opportunities as well as
developing its international sales to achieve growth.

    Gross profit increased $12,689,000 (7.9%) to $173,693,000 but decreased as a
percentage  of net sales  from 38.0% to 37.3%.  This  decreased  percentage  was
primarily attributable to decreased unit pricing in certain product lines due to
competitive  pricing  pressure,  decreased  absorption  of  fixed  manufacturing
expenses  resulting from lower production levels associated with decreased sales
of steam control valves to the Navy, and a less favorable product mix.

    Selling,  general and administrative  expenses increased $22,092,000 (22.9%)
to $118,550,000.  This increase includes $7,000,000 of unusual charges;  without
these unusual charges the increase would have been  $15,092,000  (15.6%).  These
unusual charges are related to  environmental  matters and costs associated with
the downsizing and  restructuring  of certain  acquired  companies.  The charges
include  approximately  $2,000,000  relating to the resolution of  environmental
litigation   arising  under  CERCLA   (Comprehensive   Environmental   Response,
Compensation,  and Liability  Act)  involving a  manufacturing  facility sold in
1978,  and  clean-up  costs  relating  principally  to certain of the  Company's
foundry  operations;  a $3,000,000  accrual for estimated  future  environmental
clean-up  costs;  and  $2,000,000  relating to downsizing of certain  previously
acquired  operations  which have been  negatively  impacted by reduced  military
spending  and  to the  consolidation  and  relocation  of  the  operations  of a
previously acquired company. The balance of the increased expenses is due to the
inclusion of expenses of Intermes  and the other  acquired  companies  discussed
above, and increased  international  selling expenses.  The Company from time to
time is involved with environmental  proceedings and incurs costs on an on-going
basis related to environmental matters.

    Interest  expense  increased  $1,273,000  (16.2%) to  $9,152,000  due to the
issuance on November 26, 1991 of $75,000,000  aggregate  principal amount of the
Company's  8-3/8%  Notes  Due  2003 and the inclusion of the interest expense of



                                                                              23

Management's Discussion (cont'd.)

Intermes. These increases were partially offset by the conversion of $44,000,000
aggregate  principal  amount of the Company's  7-3/4%  Convertible  Subordinated
Debentures  Due 2014 into  Class A Common  Stock on or prior to March 15,  1992.
Other expense  increased  $417,000  (50.2%) to  $1,248,000  primarily due to the
inclusion of the company's share of the net loss of a partially owned subsidiary
of Intermes.

    Earnings before income taxes decreased  $10,799,000  (18.0%) to $49,140,000.
Net earnings before the change in accounting method decreased $6,219,000 (17.0%)
to  $30,406,000.  If the  Company had not  incurred  the  $7,000,000  of unusual
charges,  net  earnings  before  the  change in  accounting  method  would  have
decreased $1,880,000 (5.1%).

    Effective  retroactively  to July 1, 1992, the Company changed its method of
accounting  for income taxes from the deferred  method to the  liability  method
required by FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". The change is
required for the Company's  fiscal year  beginning  July 1, 1993 (fiscal  1994),
however,  the Company has elected early adoption of the new rules.  As permitted
under the new rules,  prior years' financial  statements were not restated.  The
cumulative  effect  of  adopting  Statement  No.  109 as of July  1,  1992 is to
decrease net earnings  $3,132,000 or $.10 per share for the current fiscal year.
The on-going effect of the net income tax rules is expected to decrease  pre-tax
income by  approximately  $100,000 per year  because of  increased  depreciation
expense as a result of Statement No. 109's requirement to report assets acquired
in prior business  combinations at their pre-tax  amounts.  The net deferred tax
liabilities  at June 30, 1993 will not be  materially  affected by the  recently
enacted federal corporate income tax rate increase.

   The  change in foreign  exchange  rates  since  June 30,  1992 did not have a
material  impact on the results of operations or the financial  condition of the
Company.

    The weighted  average  number of common shares  outstanding on June 30, 1993
increased to 30,089,898  from  28,325,552 for the period ended June 30, 1992 due
to the conversion of the Company's 7-3/4%  Convertible  Subordinated  Debentures
Due 2014 described  above.  Primary earnings per share decreased to $.91 for the
fiscal  year ended June 30,  1993 from $1.29 for the fiscal  year ended June 30,
1992. Fully diluted earnings per share decreased to $.91 from $1.27 for the same
periods.

    The following table illustrates the reasons for the changes in fully diluted
earnings per share:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, the Company  repurchased  342,700
shares on a  pre-split  basis of its Class A Common  Stock  through  open market
repurchases  for an  aggregate  purchase  price of  $12,064,000.  The  Company's
repurchase  program is now complete.  In July, 1993, a subsidiary of the Company
purchased Ancon Products,  Inc. located in Scarborough,  Ontario,  Canada. Ancon
manufactures  a wide  range of floor and roof  drains,  intercepters,  backwater
valves,  yard hydrants,  and stainless and carbon steel specialty  products used
primarily in commercial and industrial construction  applications.  In November,
1993,  a  subsidiary  of the Company  also  purchased  Enpoco  Canada,  Ltd.,  a
manufacturer of drains located in Ontario,  Canada. The aggregate purchase price
for these acquisitions was U.S.  $4,783,000.  The Company also repaid $1,935,000
of debt acquired with one of the companies. The Company made contingent purchase
price  payments of $6,094,000 as part of the Intermes  acquisition.  The Company


24

<PAGE>
also  spent  $19,928,000  on  capital  expenditures,   primarily   manufacturing
machinery  and  equipment.  The  Company  is  budgeting  $27,000,000  of capital
expenditures  in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995, as part of its commitment
to continuously improve its manufacturing capabilities.

   Working capital at June 30, 1994 was $246,531,000 compared to $222,652,000 at
June 30, 1993. Cash and short-term investments were $65,000,000 at June 30, 1994
compared to $83,135,000 at June 30, 1993. The ratio of current assets to current
liabilities was 4.3 to 1 at June 30, 1994 compared to 3.8 to 1 at June 30, 1993.
Debt as a  percentage  of total  capital  employed  was  21.4% at June 30,  1994
compared to 23.7% at June 30, 1993.

   Subsequent to fiscal year end, on July 28, 1994, the Company purchased Jameco
Industries, Inc. ("Jameco") of Wyandanch, New York, for a cash purchase price of
$35,200,000.  Jameco  is a  manufacturer  of  metal  and  plastic  water  supply
products,  including  valves,  tubular products and sink strainers that are sold
primarily to residential  construction and home repair and remodeling markets in
the  United  States  and  overseas.   Jameco  had  net  sales  of  approximately
$56,000,000 for the twelve months ended June 30, 1994.

   In August,  1994,  the  Company  entered  into a joint  venture  with a valve
company in Tianjin,  People's Republic of China. The Company will invest a total
of $8,500,000 for a 60% interest in the joint venture during fiscal year 1995.

   In August,  1994,  the Company  acquired the Cryolab  valve product line from
SAES  Pure Gas,  Inc.  for a total  purchase  price of  approximately  $890,000.
Cryolab will be integrated  into the existing  cryogenic  valve  business at the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Circle Seal Controls of Corona, California.

   In order to  support  the  Company's  acquisition  program,  working  capital
requirements  which would arise due to acquisitions,  and for general  corporate
purposes,  the Company received a five-year  commitment for an unsecured line of
credit for $125,000,000.

   The Company  anticipates  that available  funds and those funds provided from
current operations will be sufficient to meet current operating requirements and
anticipated capital expenditures for at least the next 24 months.
