                       IDEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Organization and Acquisition

     Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
the January 22, 1988 Acquisition of the initial six businesses comprising IDEX
Corporation ("IDEX" or the "Company") was not accounted for as a purchase
transaction.  Consequently, the accounting for the acquisition does not reflect
any adjustment of the carrying value of the assets and liabilities to their
fair values at the time of the acquisition.  Accordingly, the shareholders'
equity of IDEX at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 includes a charge of
$96.5 million which represents the excess of the purchase price over the book
value of the subsidiaries purchased at the date of the acquisition.

2.(a) Significant Accounting Policies

     In the opinion of management, the unaudited information presented as of
March 31, 1995 and for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 reflects
all adjustments necessary, which consist only of normal recurring adjustments,
for a fair presentation of the interim periods.

  (b) Earnings Per Share

     Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents
outstanding during the period.  Common stock equivalents, in the form of stock
options, have been included in the calculation of weighted average shares
outstanding under the treasury stock method.

3.   Inventories

     The components of inventories as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994
were (000's omitted):

     Those inventories which were carried on a LIFO basis amounted to $43,013
and $41,499 at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively.  The excess
of current cost over LIFO inventory value and the impact on earnings of using
the LIFO method are not material.

4.   Common and Preferred Stock

     All share and per-share data has been restated to reflect the
three-for-two stock split effected in the form of a 50% dividend paid in
January 1995.

     The Company had five million shares of preferred stock authorized
but unissued at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994.

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

Historical Overview and Outlook

     IDEX sells a broad range of fluid handling and industrial products to a
diverse customer base in the United States and internationally.  Accordingly,
IDEX's businesses are generally affected by levels of industrial activity and
economic conditions in the United States and in those foreign countries where
its products are sold, and to some extent, by the relationship of the dollar to
other currencies.  Among the factors that affect the demand for IDEX's products
are interest rates, levels of capital spending by industry and overall
industrial growth.

     Business conditions remained strong in the three months ended March 31,
1995.  Incoming orders in the quarter increased 42% over the first quarter of
1994, as base business orders rose 19% and Hale Products, acquired in May 1994,
added another 23%.  This represented a new record for orders written in a
quarter.  As a result, backlogs are somewhat stronger; however, the Company
continues to operate with relatively low order backlogs of about 1-1/2 to 2
months' sales, in order to provide superior customer service.  Any decline in
orders would have an immediate effect on sales and profits.

     IDEX again achieved record sales, net income and earnings per common share
in the first quarter of 1995.  Sales increased 36% and  net income and earnings
per share both rose 46% compared to the first quarter of 1994.  Changes in
IDEX's results from the comparable prior year period resulted from improved
economic conditions and inclusion of Hale Products' activity.

     IDEX expects to achieve record sales and earnings in 1995.  The rate of
quarterly earnings growth is expected to moderate from the 46% achieved in the
first quarter both because the results of Hale Products are in the base for the
last seven months of 1994, and because higher interest rates are expected to
result in lower growth in the domestic economy as the year progresses.
However, barring unforeseen circumstances it is expected that earnings per
share in each 1995 quarter will be above the same quarter of the prior year.

Results of Operations

     For purposes of this discussion and analysis section, reference is made to
the table set forth on the preceding page and the Company's Statements of
Consolidated Operations included in the Financial Statement section.  IDEX
consists of two business segments:  Fluid Handling and Industrial Products.

Performance in the Three Months Ended March 31, 1995 Compared to 1994

    Sales, net income and earnings per common share were at record levels in
the three months ended March 31, 1995.  Incoming orders, also at record levels,
rose 19% in the Company's base businesses and the inclusion of Hale Products
added another 23% over the first quarter of the prior year.

    Three-month 1995 consolidated net sales of $116.6 million increased $30.7
million or 36% from the comparable period in 1994.  Fluid Handling Group sales
of $81.5 million increased $25.0 million or 44% due to the inclusion of Hale
activity and the stronger volume resulting from improved worldwide business
conditions.  Sales in the Industrial Products Group of $35.2 million increased
$5.8 million or 20% due to increased demand for products manufactured by the
Group.

    Income from operations increased 48% to $20.5 million in the first quarter
of 1995 from $13.9 million in the first quarter of 1994.  In the Fluid Handling
Group, income from operations increased 48% to $16.9 million in the first
quarter from $11.4 million in the comparable 1994 quarter.  Operating margins
for the Group improved to 20.7% in the current quarter from 20.2% in the same
quarter a year ago.  The margin change resulted principally from volume-related
gains with improving business conditions.  Income from operations in the
Industrial Products Group of $5.9 million and operating margins of 16.8% in the
first quarter of 1995 were sharply higher than income from operations of $4.2
million and operating margins of 14.2% in the comparable quarter of 1994, due
to volume-related improvements.

    Interest expense increased to $3.7 million in the first quarter of 1995
from $2.6 million in the comparable 1994 period principally due to increased
borrowings under the Credit Agreement resulting from last year's acquisition of
Hale Products.

    The provision for income taxes increased to $6.1 million in the first
quarter of 1995 from $4.0 million in the first quarter of 1994.   The effective
tax rate increased to 36% in the current quarter from 35% a year ago due to the
non-deductibility of goodwill amortization expense associated with the 1994
purchase of Hale Products.  Net income was $10.8 million in the first quarter
of 1995 and was 46% higher than the $7.3 million recorded in the 1994 period.
Earnings per common share amounted to $.55 in the current  quarter which was
46% higher than the $.38 recorded in the first quarter of 1994.

    All share and per share data has been restated to reflect the three-for-two
stock split effected in the form of a 50% stock dividend paid in January 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    On March 31, 1995 IDEX's working capital was $85.5 million and its current
ratio was 2.1 to 1.  Internally generated funds were adequate to fund capital
expenditures of $2.3 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended March
31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  These expenditures were generally for
machinery and equipment which improved productivity, although a portion was for
repair and replacement of equipment and facilities.  Management believes that
IDEX has ample capacity in its plant and equipment to meet expected needs for
future growth in the intermediate term.  During the three months ended March
31, 1995 and 1994, depreciation and amortization expense, excluding
amortization of debt issuance expenses, was $4.1 million, and $3.0 million,
respectively.

    At March 31, 1995, the maximum amount available under the Credit Agreement
was $150 million, of which $85 million was being used and $65 million was
available.  The availability under the Credit Agreement declines in stages
commencing December 31, 1995 to $100 million on December 31, 1997.  Any amount
outstanding at June 30, 1999 becomes due at that date.  Interest is payable
quarterly on the outstanding balance at the Bank Agent's reference rate, or at
rates applicable to certain dollar deposits in the interbank Eurodollar market
plus 75 basis points.

    IDEX believes it will generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet
its operating requirements, scheduled amortization payments under the Credit
Agreement, interest and principal payments on the Senior Subordinated Notes,
approximately $15 million of planned capital expenditures in 1995 and $11
million of annual dividend payments to holders of common stock.  From
commencement of operations in January, 1988 until March 31, 1995, IDEX borrowed
$207 million under the revolving Credit Agreement to complete seven
acquisitions.  During this same period, IDEX generated, principally from
operations, cash flow of $213 million to reduce its indebtedness.  In the event
that suitable businesses or assets are available for acquisition by IDEX upon
terms acceptable to the Board of Directors, IDEX may obtain all or a portion of
the financing for the acquisitions through the incurrence of additional
long-term indebtedness.

    On May 2, 1995, Micropump, Inc., a newly formed subsidiary of IDEX,
acquired the assets of Micropump Corporation, a leading producer of very small
magnetically driven gear pumps used in a variety of industrial, medical and
technical applications where extremely accurate but very low flow output is
necessary.  With headquarters and principal manufacturing facilities in
Vancouver, Washington, Micropump also has operations in St. Neots, England.
Micropump's annual sales are in the $25 million range.  The acquisition, which
is not material to IDEX, will be accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting and will be financed through a $32 million borrowing under the bank
revolving Credit Agreement.
