REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Administrative Committee of the Imo Industries Inc. Employees
Stock Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets
available for plan benefits of the Imo Industries Inc.
Employees Stock Savings Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995
and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets
available for plan benefits of the Plan at December 31, 1996
and 1995, and the changes in its net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an
opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The
accompanying supplemental schedules of assets held for
investment as of December 31, 1996, and reportable
transactions for the year then ended are presented for
purposes of complying with the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and are not a required
part of the financial statements. The Fund Information in the
statement of net assets available for benefits and the
statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to
present the net assets available for benefits and changes in
net assets available for benefits of each fund. The
supplemental schedules and Fund Information have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of
the financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the financial
statements taken as a whole.

IMO INDUSTRIES INC.
EMPLOYEES STOCK SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
NOTE A -- DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The Imo Industries Inc. Employees Stock Savings Plan (the
"Plan") is an employee benefit plan in which substantially all
employees of Imo Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries (the
"Company") may participate on the first day of the month
following the date of hire. The following employees are not
eligible to participate in the Plan: (i) employees whose
employment contracts exclude them from participation; (ii)
members of a collective bargaining unit covered by a
collective bargaining agreement that does not specifically
provide for their coverage; (iii) temporary hourly-paid
employees who work less than 1,020 hours per year; (iv)
employees who are employed at a division or facility
specifically excluded from participation; and (v) employees
paid on a non-United States payroll.
Under the Plan, eligible employees may contribute from 1% to
12% of their compensation on a pre-tax basis, up to a maximum
of $9,500 for the 1996 calendar year. The Company may provide
a matching contribution of up to 75% of the first 6% of each
participant's pre-tax contribution as determined from time to
time by the Company's Board of Directors. Effective July 1,
1995 the Company restored its matching contribution,
previously suspended in July 1992, at 25% of the first 6% of
each participant's pre-tax contribution. In addition, in April
1995 the Company made a one-time contribution of $410,000 to
the Plan to fund a difference in the number of shares of Imo
Industries Inc. Common Stock as reported by the recordkeeper
and trustee. This difference resulted from timing differences
in execution of transactions by the recordkeeper and trustee.
Effective April 1, 1995, these timing differences no longer
occur due to a change in trustee (See Note E) and preparation
of daily reconciliations of fund balances.
A participant's interest in pre-tax contributions and the
Company's matching contributions is at all times 100% vested
and nonforfeitable. Distributions are made upon a
participant's death, disability or other termination of
employment; however, limited withdrawal rights in the event of
a financial hardship apply with respect to a participant's pre-
tax contributions. A participant's right or interest under
the Plan is not transferable or assignable.
Effective January 1, 1995, the Plan was amended to allow for
participant loans. Under the new provisions, participants,
who are active employees of the Company, may borrow from their
fund accounts a minimum of $500 up to a maximum of the lesser
of $50,000 or 50% of their account balance. Principal
repayments and interest are deposited into the participant's
9
<PAGE>
account through payroll deductions. Loans must be repaid in
full within five years. Upon termination of employment from
the Company any outstanding loan balance must be repaid
within 90 days.
Participants may elect to have their pre-tax contributions
invested in any of the following investments in 1% increments:
(i) Company's Common Stock; (ii) Merrill Lynch Capital Fund,
Inc., a mutual fund investing in equity, debt and convertible
securities; (iii) SEI Stable Asset Fund, a collective trust
fund consisting primarily of guaranteed insurance contracts;
(iv) SEI Equity Income Fund, a mutual fund investing in stocks
of large companies; (v) SEI S&P 500 Index Fund, a mutual fund
investing in stocks of companies included in the S&P 500
Index; (vi) SEI Small Cap Growth Fund, a mutual fund investing
in stocks of small, growing companies; and (vii) Scudder
International Fund, a mutual fund investing in stocks of
companies in Europe, Asia, and South America. The Company's
matching contributions to the Plan are invested in the
Company's Common Stock, and any dividends received will be
reinvested in the Company's Common Stock. Participants may
change their contribution rate once every thirty days. Changes
in investment options for future contributions and redirection
of investments may be done at any time.
The Company has the right to amend the Plan in such manner as
it may determine, provided that no such amendment may divert
any portion of the vested account, cause the diversion of plan
assets or, without stockholder approval, increase the maximum
permitted rate of employer matching contributions. Although
it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to terminate the Plan subject to the
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974.
NOTE B -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist
of amounts temporarily invested by the Trustee in a short-term
income producing fund (Cash Fund), pending the investment of
the amounts in one of the Plan's investment alternatives.
Accounting for Investments: The Plan's investment in the
Company's Common Stock is valued at the closing price on the
last business day of the fiscal year on the New York Stock
Exchange. The fixed income accounts and the SEI Stable Asset
Fund are valued at cost plus accrued interest which
approximates market value. Shares of mutual funds are valued
at the net asset value per share reported by such funds.
Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income
is accrued as earned.
Expenses: All Plan administrative expenses are paid by the
Company.
Management Estimates: The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management of the Plan to make estimates
10
<PAGE>
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes: The Internal Revenue Service issued a letter of
determination dated December 9, 1996 stating the Plan continues
to be qualified under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue
Code ( the "Code") and is, therefore, exempt from federal
income taxation under section 501(a) of the Code. Participants
are not subject to federal income tax until amounts are
distributed to them.

At December 31, 1996 and 1995 there were no withdrawals
requested but not yet paid.
NOTE E -- CHANGE IN TRUSTEE
Effective March 1, 1995, the Plan assets were transferred from
Merrill Lynch Trust Company as trustee to SEI Trust, an
affiliate of SEI Corporation, as part of an upgrade program
intended to increase participation in the Plan. The
appointment of SEI Trust as trustee combined the record
keeping and trustee functions with the same provider.
NOTE F -- TRANSFERS TO OTHER PLANS
As a result of the sale of the Company's Turbomachinery and
Baird AID businesses in January 1995, approximately 300
participants, or 9% of total participants, withdrew from the
Plan approximately $2.2 million in the form of distributions
and $4.5 million in the form of rollovers to other qualified
plans. In addition, in April 1995, a separate plan was
established for the participants associated with Varo, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Approximately $12.9
million in assets were transferred to the Varo Plan.
