Notes to Consolidated  Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited with respect to
July 3, 1998 and June 30, 1997 and the periods then ended.)


NOTE A - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis  of  Presentation:   The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  condensed
financial  statements have been prepared in accordance  with generally  accepted
accounting  principles.  For  further  information,  refer  to the  consolidated
financial  statements  and footnotes  thereto  included in the Company's  annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December  31,  1997.  In the  opinion of
management,  all adjustments  considered  necessary for a fair presentation have
been included.  Operating  results for the six months ended July 3, 1998 are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1998.

Fiscal Year End:  Effective  January 1, 1998,  the  Company  adopted a "4-4-5"
accounting calendar.

Change  in  Accounting  Policies:   The  Company  adopted  Financial  Accounting
Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," on
January 1, 1998. For the second quarter of 1998, total comprehensive  income was
$3.9 million,  compared to reported net income of $3.8  million.  For the second
quarter of 1997,  total  comprehensive  income  was $2.3  million,  compared  to
reported  net income of $2.4  million.  For the six  months  ended July 3, 1998,
total comprehensive income was $1.3 million,  compared to reported net income of
$1.6 million.  For the six months ended June 30, 1997, total  comprehensive loss
was $12.6 million, compared to a reported net loss of $10.4 million.


NOTE B - ACQUISITION BY II ACQUISITION CORP.

On August 28, 1997, Colfax Corporation  (formerly known as II Acquisition Corp.)
acquired  approximately  93% of the  outstanding  shares of common  stock of the
Company,  pursuant to its tender offer for all outstanding  shares of the common
stock.  The  consideration  paid was $7.05  per share of common  stock or $112.1
million in total.  The  acquisition  has been  accounted  for under the purchase
method.  On July 2, 1998,  Colfax  Corporation's  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Imo
Merger Corp., merged with and into the Company,  pursuant to a short-form merger
under  Delaware  law  ("back-end   merger").   The  Company  was  the  surviving
corporation  in the  back-end  merger  and as a  result  became  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of Colfax  Corporation.  The unaudited pro forma  information for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 set forth below gives effect to the  acquisition,
and the  refinancing of the Company's  domestic  senior debt, in connection with
the  acquisition,  as if they had  occurred  on January  1, 1997.  The pro forma
information is presented for informational  purposes only and is not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations  that actually  would have been achieved
had  these  transactions  been  consummated  at  the  beginning  of  the  period
presented.

NOTE C - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On  February  27,  1998,  the  Company  completed  the sale of its  Roltra-Morse
business segment to Magna  International Inc. for cash of $30 million,  plus the
assumption of Roltra  Morse's debt.  The operating  results of the  Roltra-Morse
segment have been  segregated  and reported as a  discontinued  operation in the
accompanying  Consolidated  Condensed Statements of Income. Prior year financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The  Company  has also  accounted  for its former  Electro-Optical  Systems  and
Instrumentation  business segments as discontinued  operations.  The sale of the
Varo Electronic Systems division of the Electro-Optical Systems business and the
sale of the  Instrumentation  business  segment were completed in April 1997 and
August 1997, respectively.

Net sales of the  discontinued  operations  were $14.4 million and $95.1 million
for the six months ended July 3, 1998 and June 30, 1997, respectively, and $47.0
million for the second quarter of 1997.  Operating  results of the  discontinued
operations  resulted in net loss of $1.0  million and net income of $2.7 million
for the six months ended July 3, 1998 and June 30, 1997, respectively,  and $1.2
million  for  the  second  quarter  of  1997.   These  operating   results  from
discontinued  operations  include allocated  interest expense of $.2 million for
the six months  ended July 3, 1998,  and $1.4  million for the six months  ended
June 30, 1997.

Allocated  interest  expense  includes  interest  on  debt  of the  discontinued
operations to be assumed by the buyer and an  allocation  of other  consolidated
interest expense to the discontinued operations based on the ratio of net assets
to be sold to the sum of the  Company's  consolidated  net assets,  if positive,
plus other consolidated debt.

The Company reviews  quarterly the assumptions used in determining the estimated
gain or loss from  discontinued  operations  and the  adequacy  of the  recorded
liabilities.   Management   believes  that  the  recorded  amount  of  estimated
liabilities related to the Discontinued  Operations at July 3, 1998 is adequate,
however, the amounts estimated may differ from actual results.


NOTE D - INVENTORIES

Inventories are summarized as follows:

                                             ==========       =========


NOTE E - NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT

As of July 3, 1998, the Company had revolver borrowings of $34 million and $16.6
million of outstanding  standby  letters of credit under the Company's  existing
credit  agreement.  In  addition,  $49.7  million of term loan  borrowings  were
outstanding.   The  Company  had  $5.4  million  in  foreign  short-term  credit
facilities with amounts outstanding at July 3, 1998 of $2.2 million.  Due to the
short-term  nature of these debt  instruments,  it is the Company's opinion that
the carrying amounts  approximate fair value. The weighted average interest rate
on short-term notes payable was 8.03% at July 3, 1998 and December 31, 1997.

In  addition,  the Company had  outstanding  $102  million of its 11.75%  senior
subordinated  notes due in 2006, and $49.7 million of term loan borrowings.  The
sale of  Roltra-Morse  and the  resultant  reduction  in  domestic  senior  debt
increased  the  Company's  availability  under its  revolving  credit  facility,
allowing it to purchase a portion of its 11.75% senior  subordinated  notes (the
"Notes")  in the open  market.  During the first  quarter of 1998,  the  Company
purchased,  in the open  market at a premium,  Notes in the face amount of $33.1
million.  As a  result  of the  early  extinguishment  of  these  Notes  and the
prepayment of a portion of the term loan facility,  an  extraordinary  charge of
$5.6 million was recognized in the first quarter of 1998.


NOTE  F - CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company and one of its  subsidiaries are two of a large number of defendants
in a number of lawsuits brought in various  jurisdictions by approximately 6,000
claimants who allege injury caused by exposure to asbestos. Although neither the
Company nor any of its  subsidiaries has ever been a producer or direct supplier
of asbestos,  it is alleged  that a few of the  industrial  and marine  products
formerly  sold  by the  Company  and the  subsidiary  named  in such  complaints
contained  components which contained  asbestos.  Claims against the Company and
its subsidiary have been tendered to its insurers, who are defending pursuant to
Defense and Indemnity  Agreements and under their stated  reservation of rights.
In  addition,  the  Company  and the  subsidiary  are named in cases,  involving
approximately 25,000 claimants, which have been "administratively  dismissed" by
the U.S.  District Court for the Eastern  District of  Pennsylvania.  Cases that
have been "administratively  dismissed" may be reinstated only upon a showing to
the Court that (i) there is satisfactory evidence of an asbestos-related injury;
and (ii) there is probative  evidence that the plaintiff was exposed to products
or equipment  supplied by each  individual  defendant  in the case.  The Company
believes that it has adequate insurance coverage or has established  appropriate
reserves to cover potential liabilities related to these cases.

The Company is a defendant  in a lawsuit  brought in the  Superior  Court of New
Jersey on April 3,  1998,  which  seeks  damages  in excess of $17  million  for
alleged  problems  associated  with  turbines  sold to it in  1986  for use at a
powerplant in Long Beach, California. The Company has few details of this matter
other than as set forth in the  complaint,  however,  the Company  believes that
there are legal and  factual  defenses  to the claims and will defend the action
vigorously.

On June 3, 1997 the Company was served with a complaint in a case brought in the
Superior  Court of New Jersey  which  alleges  damages in excess of $10  million
incurred as a result of losses under a Government  Contract Bid  transferred  in
connection  with  the  sale  of the  Company's  former  Electro-Optical  Systems
business.  The  Electro-Optical  Systems business was sold in a transaction that
closed on June 2, 1995. The sales contract provided certain  representations and
warranties  as to the status of the business at the time of sale.  The complaint
alleges that the Company failed to provide  notice of a "reasonably  anticipated
loss" under a bid that was pending at the time of the transfer of the  business.
The contract was  subsequently  awarded to the  Company's  Varo  subsidiary  and
thereafter transferred to the buyer of the Electro-Optical Systems business. The
complaint alleges among other matters, breach of contract,  fraud, and negligent
misrepresentation.  The case is in the  preliminary  stages of pleading  but the
Company  believes  that there are legal and  factual  defenses to the claims and
intends to defend the action vigorously.

The operations of the Company,  like those of other companies engaged in similar
businesses, involve the use, disposal and clean up of substances regulated under
environmental  protection  laws.  In a number of instances  the Company has been
identified  as  a  Potentially  Responsible  Party  by  the  U.S.  Environmental
Protection Agency, and in one instance by the State of Washington,  with respect
to the disposal of  hazardous  wastes at a number of  facilities  that have been
targeted for clean-up  pursuant to CERCLA or similar state law.  Similarly,  the
Company has received notice that it is one of a number of defendants named in an
action filed in the United States District Court,  for the Southern  District of
Ohio Western  Division by a group of plaintiffs who are attempting to allocate a
share of cleanup  costs,  for which they are  responsible,  to a large number of
additional  parties,  including the Company.  Although CERCLA and  corresponding
state  law  liability  is joint  and  several,  the  Company  believes  that its
liability will not have a material adverse effect on the financial  condition of
the Company since it believes that it either  qualifies as a de minimis or minor
contributor at each site. Accordingly,  the Company believes that the portion of
remediation costs that it will be responsible for will not be material.

The Company is also involved in various other pending legal proceedings  arising
out of the  ordinary  course  of the  Company's  business.  None of these  legal
proceedings  is  expected  to have a material  adverse  effect on the  financial
condition of the Company.  With respect to these  proceedings and the litigation
and claims  described in the  preceding  paragraphs,  management  of the Company
believes that it either will  prevail,  has adequate  insurance  coverage or has
established appropriate reserves to cover potential liabilities. There can be no
assurance,  however, as to the ultimate outcome of any of these matters,  and if
all or  substantially  all of  these  legal  proceedings  were to be  determined
adversely  to the  Company,  there  could be a  material  adverse  effect on the
financial condition or results of operations of the Company.


Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                      Condition and Results of Operations.

The following  paragraphs  provide  Management's  discussion and analysis of the
significant  factors which have affected the Company's  consolidated  results of
operations and financial condition during the three and six months ended July 3,
1998.  This section should be read in  conjunction  with the Company's 1997 Form
10-K Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.

Recent Events

Merger: On August 28, 1997, II Acquisition Corp.  acquired  approximately 93% of
the outstanding  shares of common stock of Imo Industries Inc.  ("Imo") pursuant
to its  tender  offer  for all  outstanding  shares  of the  common  stock.  The
consideration  paid was $7.05 per share of  common  stock or $112.1  million  in
total. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method. On July
2, 1998, II Acquisition Corp's wholly-owned subsidiary, Imo Merger Corp., merged
with and into Imo, pursuant to a short-form merger under Delaware law ("back-end
merger").  Imo was the  surviving  corporation  in the back-end  merger and as a
result became a wholly-owned subsidiary of II Acquisition Corp.

New York Stock  Exchange:  Imo  delisted  its  Common  Stock from the New York
Stock  Exchange on July 2, 1998. The Common Stock was  deregistered  under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Consent  Solicitation:  On April  14,  1998,  the  Company  commenced  a consent
solicitation,  seeking consents from the holders of the Company's 11 3/4% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2006 ("the Notes") to certain amendments to the Indenture
governing  the Notes.  The  proposed  amendments  would  permit  the  Company to
complete  the  back-end  merger with and into a wholly  owned  subsidiary  of II
Acquisition  Corp. On May 6, 1998, the Company received  sufficient  consents to
effect the proposed amendments,  and entered into a Supplemental  Indenture with
respect to such amendments. The Company paid an aggregate of $483,650 to holders
of Notes in connection with the solicitation.

Roltra-Morse  Sale: On February 27, 1998, the Company  completed the sale of its
Roltra-Morse  business to Magna  International Inc. for cash of $30 million plus
the assumption of Roltra-Morse's  debt. The sale price approximated the recorded
net book value of the business. Net proceeds were used to reduce domestic senior
debt.  This  transaction  is reflected in the Company's  consolidated  condensed
financial statements for the quarter ended April 3, 1998.

The sale of  Roltra-Morse  and the resultant  reduction in domestic  senior debt
increased  the  Company's  availability  under its  revolving  credit  facility,
allowing  it to purchase a portion of its Notes in the open  market.  During the
first quarter of 1998, the Company  purchased,  in the open market at a premium,
Notes  in  the  face  amount  of  $33.1  million.  As  a  result  of  the  early
extinguishment  of these Notes and the  prepayment of a portion of the term loan
facility,  an  extraordinary  charge of $5.6 million was recognized in the first
quarter of 1998.

Results of Operations

The Roltra-Morse, Instrumentation, and Electro-Optical Systems business segments
were sold in February 1998, August 1997, and April 1997, respectively,  and were
accounted  for  as  discontinued  operations  in the  accompanying  consolidated
condensed  financial  statements.   Accordingly,  the  discussion  that  follows
concerns only the results of  continuing  operations.  The Company's  continuing
businesses are grouped into three  business  segments for management and segment
reporting purposes: Power Transmission, Pumps, and Morse Controls.

Three Months Ended July 3, 1998 Compared to Three  Months Ended June 30, 1997
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sales. Net sales from continuing  operations for the second quarter of 1998 were
$81.1 million compared with $81.3 million in the comparable 1997 period.  Second
quarter 1998 net sales  increased 4.8% and 2.4% for the Pumps and Morse Controls
segments,  respectively and decreased 10.1% for the Power Transmission  segment,
compared to the prior year period. The increases in the Pumps and Morse Controls
segments  are due to  increases in volume of  shipments  and new  products.  The
decrease at the Power  Transmission  segment is primarily due to the sale of the
Delroyd product line, which was sold on December 31, 1997.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit  increased as a percentage of sales to 32.6% for the
second  quarter of 1998 compared with 31.7% in the second  quarter of 1997.  The
higher gross profit was the result of productivity improvements in each segment.

Selling,   General   and   Administrative   Expenses.   Selling,   general   and
administrative  expenses  decreased  as a  percentage  of sales to 18.4% for the
second  quarter of 1998 compared with 22.7% in the second  quarter of 1997.  The
decreased  expenses as a percentage  of sales in 1998 were due to the effects of
Company-wide  cost reduction  programs  instituted in August of 1997,  offset by
increased goodwill amortization resulting from the purchase of the Company by II
Acquisition Corp.

Unusual Item. On July 15, 1997, the Company agreed to settle with  International
Insurance  Company by dropping  an appeal and paid a reduced  amount on July 30,
1997 in  complete  settlement  of all  outstanding  amounts.  As a result of the
settlement,  the Company  recorded a favorable  adjustment of $2.4 million as an
unusual item in the second quarter of 1997.

Interest  Expense.  Average  borrowings  in the  second  quarter  of  1998  were
approximately  $77 million lower than the second quarter of 1997. Total interest
expense (before allocation to discontinued  operations) was $5.9 million for the
second  quarter of 1998  compared with $7.1 million for the same period in 1997.
Interest  expense  for  continuing   operations   excludes  a  general  interest
allocation to the discontinued  operations of $.2 million for the second quarter
of 1997.

Provision for Income Taxes.  Income tax expense for  continuing  operations  was
$0.7  million  and $0.5  million  for the  second  quarters  of 1998  and  1997,
respectively.  These amounts represent current tax expense for foreign and state
income  taxes,  as the Company is utilizing  existing  U.S. net  operating  loss
carryforwards with its domestic earnings.

Income from  Continuing  Operations.  The Company had net income from continuing
operations of $3.8 million,  or $0.22 per share, for the second quarter of 1998,
compared with net income of $1.2 million, or $0.07 per share, for the comparable
1997 period.

Income  (Loss)  from   Discontinued   Operations.   There  was  no  income  from
discontinued  operations  for the second quarter of 1998 compared with income of
$1.2 million for the second quarter of 1997.

Net  Income  (Loss).  The net  income  in the  second  quarter  of 1998 was $3.8
million, or $0.22 per share,  compared with net income of $2.4 million, or $0.07
per share, in the comparable 1997 period.

Six Months Ended July 3, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sales.  Net sales from  continuing  operations  for the six months ended July 3,
1998 were $164.1 million,  an increase of 2.4%,  compared with $160.2 million in
the  comparable  1997  period.  Increases  in the  volume of  shipments  and new
products  provided this growth.  Net sales for the six months ended July 3, 1998
increased 5.4% and 6.0% for the Pumps and Morse Controls segments, respectively.
Net sales  decreased 5.7% for the Power  Transmission  segment,  compared to the
prior year period.  The increases in the Pumps and Morse  Controls  segments are
due to increases in volume of shipments  and new  products.  The decrease at the
Power  Transmission  segment is primarily due to the sale of the Delroyd product
line, which was sold on December 31, 1997.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit  increased as a percentage of sales to 32.4% for the
six months ended July 3, 1998 compared with 31.5% for the  comparable  period in
1997.  The higher  gross  profit was the result of  increased  sales  volume and
productivity improvements in each segment.

Selling,   General   and   Administrative   Expenses.   Selling,   general   and
administrative  expenses decreased as a percentage of sales to 18.4% for the six
months ended July 3, 1998 compared with 22.3% in the comparable  period in 1997.
The  decreased  expenses as a percentage  of sales in 1998 were due to increased
sales volume and the effects of Company-wide cost reduction programs  instituted
in August of 1997, offset by increased goodwill amortization  resulting from the
purchase of the Company by II Acquisition Corp.

Unusual Item. In the first six months of 1997,  the Company  recorded an unusual
charge of $10.5 million,  as a result of the  reinstatement of a judgment,  plus
interest  to date,  against  the  Company  in favor of  International  Insurance
Company.

Interest Expense.  Average borrowings for the six months ended July 3, 1998 were
approximately  $108  million  lower than the  comparable  period in 1997.  Total
interest  expense  (before  allocation  to  discontinued  operations)  was $11.9
million for the six months ended July 3, 1998  compared  with $15.0  million for
the same period in 1997.  Interest expense for continuing  operations excludes a
general interest  allocation to the  discontinued  operations of $.2 million and
$1.4 million for the first six months of 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Provision for Income Taxes.  Income tax expense for  continuing  operations  was
$1.5 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended July 3, 1998 and June 30,
1997, respectively.  These amounts represent current tax expense for foreign and
state income taxes, as the Company is utilizing existing U.S. net operating loss
carryforwards with its domestic earnings.

Income from  Continuing  Operations.  The Company had net income from continuing
operations of $7.2 million,  or $.42 per share, for the six months ended July 3,
1998,  compared  with a net loss of $13.1  million,  or $.77 per share,  for the
comparable 1997 period.

Income  (Loss)  from  Discontinued  Operations.  Roltra-Morse's  net  loss of $1
million, which includes $.2 million of allocated interest, was included with the
net book value of the assets on the date of sale  February 27, 1998.  Therefore,
there was no income  from  discontinued  operations  for the first six months of
1998 compared with income of $2.7 million for the first six months of 1997.

Extraordinary Item. In March 1998, the Company purchased,  in the open market at
a premium,  Notes in the face amount of $33.1 million.  As a result of the early
extinguishment  of these Notes and the prepayment of a portion of the term loan,
an  extraordinary  charge of $5.6 million was recognized in the six months ended
July 3, 1998.

Net Income (Loss). The net income for the six months ended July 3, 1998 was $1.6
million, or $0.09 per share, compared with a net loss of $10.4 million, or $0.61
per share, in the comparable 1997 period.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Short-term and Long-term Debt

As of July 3, 1998, Imo had revolver borrowings of $34 million and $16.6 million
of  outstanding  standby  letters  of  credit.  Imo had $5.4  million in foreign
short-term  credit  facilities with amounts  outstanding at July 3, 1998 of $2.2
million.  Due to the  short-term  nature  of these  debt  instruments  it is the
Company's  opinion that the carrying  amounts  approximate  the fair value.  The
weighted-average  interest rate on short-term notes payable was 8.03% at July 3,
1998.

In  addition,  the Company had  outstanding  $102  million of its 11.75%  senior
subordinated notes due in 2006, and $49.7 million of term loan borrowings.

Cash Flow

The Company's operating activities provided net cash of $13.6 million in the six
months of 1998,  compared with cash  provided of $0.4 million in the  comparable
1997 period. The cash provided by operating  activities in 1998 was attributable
to net operating profits and the decrease in working capital in the period,  due
to a decrease in accounts  receivable,  inventories,  and other current  assets,
offset by a decrease in  accounts  payable  and  accrued  expenses.  For the six
months ended July 3, 1998,  total debt reduction was $34.2 million,  $30 million
of which was  provided by the sale of  Roltra-Morse.  Cash and cash  equivalents
were $4.5  million at July 3, 1998  compared  with $3.5  million at December 31,
1997.

The  sale of the  Roltra-Morse  business  segment  has  improved  the  Company's
liquidity position.  Management believes that cash flow from operations and cash
available from unused credit facilities will be sufficient to meet the Company's
foreseeable liquidity needs.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES  LITIGATION  REFORM ACT OF 1995. Except for historical  matters,  the
matters discussed in this Form 10-Q Report are forward-looking  statements based
on current  expectations  and involve risks and  uncertainties.  Forward-looking
statements  include,  but are not limited  to,  statements  under the  following
headings:  (i) Legal Proceedings - the future impact of legal proceedings on the
financial  condition of the Company;  and,  (ii)  "Results of  Operations" - the
future  performance of various  programs and foreign  market  conditions in each
segment and the impact of such programs and foreign market  conditions on future
sales and on operating income. The Company wishes to caution the reader that, in
addition to the  matters  described  above,  various  factors  such as delays in
contracts  from  key  customers,  demand  and  market  acceptance  risk  for new
products,  continued  or  increased  competitive  pricing  and  the  effects  of
under-utilization  of plants and  facilities,  particularly  in Europe,  and the
impact of worldwide  economic  conditions on demand for the Company's  products,
could  cause  results to differ  materially  from  those in any  forward-looking
statement.

Agreement ("Financial Information,  Reports, Notices, etc."). The Lenders hereby

Credit Agreement caused by the VHC Proceeding and (ii) the other Defaults waived
by the Lenders in this Part.

the extent that such payment would (by the terms of Section 7.2.6) be prohibited
by the  institution of the VHC  Proceeding or any of the Defaults  waived by the
Lenders in this part.

      SUBPART  II.3.4.  Time  Limited  Waiver  Regarding  Section  8.1.9  of the
Existing Credit Agreement ("Bankruptcy,  Insolvency, etc."). For purposes of (i)
exercising any of their rights and remedies  (including  their rights to declare
the  Commitments  terminated  and the  Obligations  due and payable  pursuant to
Sections 8.2 and 8.3 of the Existing Credit  Agreement) under the Loan Documents
and (ii)  enabling the Borrower to satisfy the  conditions  precedent to further
Credit  Extensions set forth in Sections 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 of the Existing  Credit
Agreement,  the Lenders  hereby  waive  through  (and  including),  the Relevant
Period,  the Default  under clause (d) of Section  8.1.9 of the Existing  Credit
Agreement  resulting  from the VHC  Proceeding  (including  as a  result  of the
Default caused by the VHC  Proceeding  potentially  developing  into an Event of
Default on or around June 22, 1998).

certified or other copies or such materials,  as the Administrative Agent or its
counsel  may  reasonably  request,   and  all  legal  matters  incident  to  the
