1.   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
     Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission
     (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
     footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
     financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
     considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
     results for the three and nine-month periods ended October 31, 1999 are not
     necessarily indicative of the results that may be be expected for the year
     ending January 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated
     financial statements and notes thereto included in the company's Annual
     Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 1999.


2.   Certain outstanding options for the three and nine month periods ended
     10/31/99 and 10/31/98, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share
     calculations because their exercise prices were greater than the average
     market price of the company's common stock during those periods. Details of
     the earnings per share computation are presented below (in thousands,
     except per share data):

4.   On October 29, 1999, the company sold the assets of its Glasstite
     subsidiary to Penda Corporation resulting in a pretax gain of $966,000. The
     gain on the sale reflects an estimate for the cost of remedial actions on
     certain environmental concerns. At the closing, the company received $8.4
     million in cash and delivered all tangible and intangible assets of the
     subsidiary, including $135,000 of cash, netting to $8.2 million of cash
     received. In addition, the company has receivable for certain working
     capital adjustments yet to be finalized, and the buyer assumed certain
     liabilities.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


FINANCIAL CONDITION

On October 29, 1999, the company sold the assets of its Glasstite subsidiary for
$8.4 million cash. In addition, the company has a receivable for certain working
capital adjustments yet to be finalized, and the buyer assumed certain
liabilities. From a portion of the proceeds of this sale, the company repaid
$5.0 million in short term debt. During the nine months ended October 31,1999,
the company repurchased 388,445 shares of its common stock. The average purchase
price was $15.27 per share for a total cost of $5.9 million. Subsequent to the
third quarter the company repurchased an additional 270,000 shares for a total
of 658,445 shares for the year. The company's cash was $4.6 million at October
31, 1999, compared with $2.9 million one year earlier. Inventory levels
decreased $2.3 million from the October 31, 1998, level due primarily to the
sale of Galsstite's assets. The Company retains its minimum $5.0 million line of
credit. The company's capital resources continue to be sufficient to fund all
its activities.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales were $45.0 million for the quarter ended October 31, 1999, an increase of
$184,000 over the third quarter of the prior year. For the nine months ended
October 31, 1999, sales increased 3 percent to $116.4 million compared to last
year's $113.2 million. Net income climbed 20 percent to $5.5 million or a record
$1.22 per diluted share, compared to $4.6 million or 96 cents per diluted share
in the first nine months of the previous year. Results included a $966,000
pretax gain on the Glasstite sale, and a $800,000 pretax inventory charge
related to third-quarter actions by the new managers of Raven operating units
who are repositioning certain elements of the company's business. The Plastic
segment and Electronics segment generated sales increases over last year for
both the third quarter and the year-to-date figures. Operating income for the
third quater increased 12 percent to $3.6 million from $3.2 million a year
earlier. Third-quarter earnings per share on a diluted basis rose 18 percent to
52 cents a diluted share, compared to 44 cents a share in the third quarter of
last year, with 372,684 fewer average common equivalent shares outstanding. For
the nine months, operating income rose 20 percent to $8.6 from $7.2 million for
the same period last year.

Electronics segment third-quarter sales were $12.2 million, which was an
increase of 6 percent or $678,000 over the same period last year. Operating
income, however, declined 22 percent to $679,000 from $872,000 the prior year.
The increase in sales was due primarily to stronger deliveries from the contract
manufacturing operations. Their sales increased to $5.8 million in the third
quarter from $5.0 million last year. The decline in operating income was due to
the impact of $300,000 in inventory valuation adjustments described above and
continuing inefficiencies in new business in the contract manufacturing
operations. Sales of flow control devices in the third quarter at $3.4 million
were even with last year's third quarter due to the continuing weakness in the
agricultural markets. However, through cost cutting and production efficiencies
they were able to improve their gross margin rates. Third-quarter sales of
feedmill automation systems fell $192,000 to $3.0 million due to a decrease in
demand for new systems. Sales for the nine months totaled $37.0 million compared
to $34.7 million for the same period in fiscal 1999. Operating income for the
nine months was $2.3 million, down 27 percent from the prior year's $3.1
million.

Plastics segment sales of $20.0 million for the third quarter were 4 percent
more than the same period last year. Sales of $58.0 million for the first nine
months were 10 percent greater than the $52.5 million generated in the first
nine months of fiscal 1999. Third quarter operating income for the segment was
$2.6 million, up sharply

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                  (continued)


due in substantial part to the $966,000 gain on the sale of Glasstite. Adjusted
for the gain, operating income was up slightly, but partially offset by $250,000
in inventory-valuation adjustments. The research balloons, engineered films, and
pickup truck topper product lines showed increased sales in both the second
quarter and the year-to-date figures. Year-to-date operating income was $5.9
million compared to $3.2 million the first nine months of last fiscal year. The
increase in operating margins in the Plastics segment was due primarily to the
sale of Glasstite. However, there were also positive effects from slightly
better prices on purchased material, small increases in selling prices, and
better equipment and labor utilization.

Sewn Products segment sales of $12.8 million for the third quarter were short of
the $14.1 million figure logged for the same period last year. Year-to-date
sales of $21.4 million were 17 percent below the nine-month results of fiscal
1999. Management is projecting lower sales totals in the segment's contract
sewing product line due to offshore competition. Third quarter operating income
of $311,000 compares to $761,000 generated in the third quarter of fiscal 1999.
This result reflects $250,000 of inventory valuation adjustments described above
in the contract sewing product line. New management in contract sewing line is
repositioning the focus of the product offering. Year-to-date operating income
was $515,000, $367,000 less than last year's nine-month total.

Consolidated gross profits of $6.5 million in the third quarter were $556,000
less than the third quarter last year. The current year figure reflects $800,000
in inventory charges. The nine months generated an increase of $591,000 in gross
profits, rising from $18.5 million to $19.1 million over the same period the
prior year. These increases were due primarily to the strong performance of the
Plastics segment. Selling expenses were down by 8 percent for the quarter and 5
percent for the nine months due to decreased selling staff. Administrative
expenses were up 12 percent for the quarter and 8 percent on a year-to-date
basis reflecting increases in bad debt expenses, consulting and compensation.
Third quarter pretax income of $3.5 million was 10 percent higher than last
year's $3.2 million. The pretax income for the nine months was $8.6 million
compared to $7.1 million last year. These results generated a 27 percent
increase year-to-date in per share diluted earnings, rising from 96 cents in
fiscal 1999 to $1.22 in fiscal 2000.

YEAR 2000 STATEMENT

All of the company's business software has been changed to be 2000-compliant and
is currently in daily production. The platform on which this software runs is
2000-compliant. Production equipment is being checked, and any problems
identified are being addressed. Building equipment has been checked, and only
one problem was found, which was corrected in March 1999. Since the company does
not run its primary business software on personal computers, management does not
expect any material problems from non-compliant personal computers. Vendors and
service providers have been surveyed to ensure that they are 2000-compliant. Any
problems identified are being addressed.
