                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          September 30, 1995 and 1994

(1)      In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only
         normal recurring adjustments) which were necessary to a fair statement
         of the results of the interim periods have been included in the        
         preceding financial statements.  However, the results of operations
         for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 are not
         necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.  Certain
         items, including income taxes, LIFO charges and various other accruals
         are included in these statements based on current estimates for the
         entire year.

(2)      Inventories

         Substantially all inventories are stated at cost which does not exceed
         market, determined on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis. 
         Inventory amounts as of September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 are as
         follows:

</TABLE>
<PAGE>   8

(4)      Legal Proceedings

         Product liability claims against the Company arise from time to time in
         the course of business.  As explained more fully in the Company's
         1994 Form 10K, Rexworks is self-insured against product liability
         claims, because, in the opinion of management, the premiums the Company
         would pay for insurance are cost prohibitive and not justified by the
         Company's historical loss experience.  The Company is currently party
         to a number of legal proceedings involving product liability claims in
         a number of states, some of which involve significant claims.  These
         proceedings are now pending before courts in various stages or are in
         discovery stages.  In most instances, pending claims allege the Company
         produced faulty product which led to injury.  The Company generally
         denies liability and intends to vigorously defend these proceedings,
         but considers settlements where appropriate.

         There is an inherent uncertainty as to the eventual resolution of
         unsettled claims.  However, in the opinion of management, based in part
         on advice from its outside legal counsel, any costs, losses and
         settlements with respect to existing claims in excess of established
         reserves will not have a material impact on the Company's operating
         income.

(5)      Sale of Receivables

         In the second quarter of 1995, the Company entered into an agreement
         with its bank to sell up to $6.0 million of receivables due in
         January 1996 to the bank with full recourse at a discount rate of prime
         plus 1.25%.  As of September 30, 1995 the Company had sold $4,848,000
         of receivables to the bank.  The Company recorded charges of $113,000
         and $80,000 in the second and third quarters of 1995, respectively, to
         reflect the loss on sale of receivables.  This loss is included in
         Other Income (Expense) on the Company's Consolidated Statement of
         Operations.

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

The following comments are provided to assist in the understanding of the
Company's operations as set forth in the consolidated financial statements.

                        ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Liquidity and Capitalization

Working capital and current ratio are financial measurements that provide an
indication of the Company's ability to meet its short-term obligations.  This
data at September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 is as follows:

<TABLE>

                                                  September 30              December 31

                   Current Ratio                          1.4                        1.5

</TABLE>

Inventories were higher at September 30, 1995 compared with December 31, 1994
due to differences in product mix between the Company's production plans
compared to actual market demand in the first nine months of 1995.  The
increase in inventory resulted in increased borrowings on the Company's
line-of-credit facility at September 30, 1995 compared to December 31, 1994.

At September 30, 1995 the Company had $2,772,000 of borrowings available under
its line-of-credit facility.  In management's opinion, anticipated future cash
generated from operations and the existing credit facility will be sufficient
to meet the Company's short and long term needs for working capital and
required capital additions.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Third Quarter, 1995 Compared To The Third Quarter, 1994

Net sales for the third quarter of 1995 decreased $360,000 (2.6%) compared to
the third quarter of 1994.  Sales of the Company's truck mounted concrete mixer
product line increased significantly compared to the third quarter of 1994 due
to continued strong market demand.  Sales of the Company's Maxigrind materials
reduction product line were down significantly in the third quarter of 1995
compared to the third quarter of 1994 due to weak market demand.

<PAGE>   10

Gross profit increased $63,000 to $3,003,000 in the third quarter of 1995 from
the $2,940,000 reported in the third quarter of 1994.  Gross profit as a
percentage of net sales increased to 22.4% compared to 21.4% for the third
quarter of 1994 due to productivity improvements and manufacturing overhead
expense reductions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $209,000 (8.9%) to
$2,566,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995 compared to the same
period in 1994 due primarily to additional marketing, new product introduction
and engineering expenses.

Interest expense increased $52,000 (28.7%) during the three month period ended
September 30, 1995, compared to the same period in 1994 due to higher average
borrowings and interest rate increases.

In addition, in the third quarter of 1995, the Company factored $2,637,000 of
accounts receivable payable in January 1996.  The Company recorded a $80,000
loss on the factoring transaction which is included in Other Income (Expense)
in the third quarter of 1995.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995 Compared to Nine Months Ended
September 30, 1994

Net sales in the first nine months of 1995 increased $960,000 (2.4%) compared
to the first nine months of 1994 due primarily to continued strong market
demand for the Company's Trashmaster landfill compactor product line,
particularly the Company's largest model, the 3-90C as well as continued strong
market demand for the Company's truck mounted concrete mixer product line.
Sales of the Company's Maxigrind materials reduction products were lower in the
first nine months of 1995 compared to the first nine months of 1994 due to weak
market demand.

Gross profit decreased $39,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
compared to the same period in 1994.  Gross profit as a percentage of net sales
decreased to 20.5% for the first nine months of 1995 compared to 21.1% for the
same period in 1994.  During the first nine months of 1995, a greater
percentage of the Company's sales were in the Company's lower margin products
compared to the first nine months of 1994.  This change in sales mix was
partially offset by improvements in manufacturing productivity and
manufacturing overhead expense reductions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,242,000 (18.3%) to
$8,043,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 compared to the same
period in 1994 due to new product development and market introduction costs.
In addition, the Company incurred higher warranty, customer service and product
support expenses.

Interest expense increased $161,000 (31.0%) during the first nine months of
1995 compared to the same period in 1994 due to higher average borrowings and
interest rate increases.

<PAGE>   11


The results for the first nine months of 1995 also include a charge to earnings
of $193,000 for loss on factoring of receivables, which is included in Other
Income (Expense).
