Statements in the Company's  Annual  Report to  Stockholders  for the year ended
December  31,  1994,  the  Company  completed  a major  refinancing  (the  "1995
Refinancing")  in the first  quarter  of 1995,  including  an  amendment  to the
Company's  1993 credit  agreement  which  provided an additional  term loan (the
"October Borrowing"),  the initial public offering of the Company's common stock
(the  "Offering") and an amended and restated credit agreement (the "1995 Credit
Agreement").  See "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition
and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources."


Note 2.  Tax Matters

     As described in Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the
Company's Annual Report to Stockholders on for the year ended December 31, 1994,
there are  pending  German  tax  issues for the years  1984  through  1990.  See

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

Overview

     Operating  results  improved  significantly  in the first  quarter  of 1995
compared with the first quarter of 1994, due principally to volume  increases in
each of the  Company's  three  business  segments.  As a result of the Company's
leveraged  buyout in 1988,  the  results of  operations  include  the effects of
purchase accounting and reflect a highly leveraged capital structure.

     Results of Operations for the First Quarter of 1995 Compared with the First
Quarter of 1994

Operating Review

     Consolidated  sales for the first quarter of 1995 were $1,223  million,  an
increase of $233 million, or 24% (20% excluding the favorable effects of foreign
exchange),  from $990 million in the first quarter of 1994.  Sales increased for
all three  segments  with  gains of 24% for Air  Conditioning  Products,  9% for
Plumbing Products and 48% for Automotive Products.

     Consolidated  operating  income  for the  first  quarter  of 1995  was $126
million, an increase of $38 million, or 43% (35% excluding the favorable effects
of foreign exchange),  from $88 million in the first quarter of 1994.  Operating
income  improved for all three segments -- increasing  31% for Air  Conditioning
Products,  8% for  Plumbing  Products  and more  than  doubling  for  Automotive
Products.

     Sales of Air Conditioning  Products  increased 24% (with little effect from
foreign  exchange)  to $643  million  for the  first  quarter  of 1995 from $520
million for the comparable  quarter of 1994, as a result of strong gains in U.S.
and international  sales of applied and unitary commercial  systems.  Markets in
the  U.S.  continued  the  improvement  trend  of 1994 in  both  the  commercial
new-construction and the commercial and residential  replacement markets.  Sales
of commercial  products in the U.S.  increased 23% because of improved  markets,
CFC-related  chiller  replacement,  gains in market  share and a shift to newer,
larger-capacity, higher-efficiency products. Residential sales were up 6% due to
increased  preseason  purchases by distributors and favorable product shifts (to
heat  pumps  from  cooling   units  and  to  outdoor  from  indoor   equipment).
International  sales of Air Conditioning  Products for the first quarter of 1995
increased  principally  because  of volume  increases  in the Far East and Latin
America.

     Operating  income of Air Conditioning  Products  increased 31% (with little
effect from foreign  exchange) to $42 million in the first  quarter of 1995 from
$32  million  in the 1994  quarter,  primarily  reflecting  expanded  commercial
product sales in the United States.  Operating  income for residential  products
declined slightly primarily because of lower prices due to competitive pressures
and distributor concessions.

     Sales of Plumbing Products increased 9% (7% excluding the favorable effects
of foreign  exchange)  to $323  million  in the first  quarter of 1995 from $296
million in the first quarter of 1994. The exchange-adjusted improvement resulted
from  sales  increases  of 4% for  international  operations  and 14%  for  U.S.
operations.  The  sales  increase  for  the  international  operations  resulted
primarily from price gains in Italy,  Germany and Brazil.  Sales  increases also
occurred in Mexico,  the Philippines,  Thailand and Korea.  These increases were
partly offset by the effect of the deconsolidation of operations in the People's
Republic of China ("PRC") which in April 1994 were  contributed to the new joint
venture  operating in that country.  Sales in the U.S.  increased as a result of
higher  volumes in both  wholesale  and retail  market  channels and an expanded
retail  customer  base,  offset partly by an  unfavorable  shift in sales mix to
lower-priced products.

     Operating income of Plumbing Products for the first quarter of 1995 was $41
million  compared with $38 million for the 1994 period,  but was flat  excluding
the   positive   effects   of   foreign   exchange.    Despite   higher   sales,
exchange-adjusted  operating income was at the same level as in the year-earlier
quarter for both  international  and U.S.  operations.  Because Italian and U.K.
operations  purchase  products  from Germany,  the strength of the  Deutschemark
against Italian and U.K.  currencies  resulted in Italian and U.K.  product cost
increases not being fully recovered  through  pricing;  these effects offset the
benefits of sales increases.  In the U.S., the positive effect of higher volumes
was offset by the effect of an  unfavorable  product  mix and the  inability  to
fully recover material and labor cost increases due to competitive pressures.

     Sales of  Automotive  Products  for the  first  quarter  of 1995  were $257
million,  an increase of 48% (31%  excluding  the  favorable  effects of foreign
exchange)  from $174 million in the first quarter of 1994.  Unit volume of truck
and bus production in western  Europe  improved 29% and  aftermarket  sales grew
approximately 15%. The exchange-adjusted sales increase was the result of higher
volumes,  led by Germany and France reflecting the increased  commercial vehicle
production in western  Europe,  and the U.K. as a result of the growing  utility
vehicle  business  in that  country.  Sales also  increased  in all other  major
markets in which the Company has operations.

     Operating  income for Automotive  Products more than doubled to $43 million
in the 1995 quarter, compared with $18 million in the comparable 1994 period (an
increase of 139%, or 108% excluding the favorable effects of foreign  exchange).
This significant increase was primarily attributable to the substantially higher
sales volume in improved  markets in nearly all European  countries  and Brazil,
higher margins due to increasing  benefits of Demand Flow Technology,  a reduced
salaried workforce and other cost reductions .


Financial Review

     Interest expense decreased $7 million in the first quarter of 1995 compared
to the  year-earlier  quarter  primarily as a result of lower  overall  interest
rates on debt outstanding under the 1995 Credit Agreement, together with reduced
debt  balances due to  application  of the net proceeds  from the Offering  (see
"Liquidity  and  Capital  Resources").   Corporate  costs  increased  moderately
primarily   because  of  higher  accretion  expense  related  to  postretirement
benefits.

     The income tax  provisions for the first quarters of 1995 and 1994 were $19
million  and $16  million,  respectively,  on  income  before  income  taxes and
extraordinary   item  of  $45   million  and  $3  million  for  1995  and  1994,
respectively. These provisions reflected the taxes payable on profitable foreign
operations,  offset partly in 1995 by tax benefits from U.S. and certain foreign
net operating losses. The unusual  relationship  between the pre-tax results and
the tax provision for the first quarter of 1994 (and to a lesser extent the 1995
quarter) is explained by tax rate  differences and withholding  taxes on foreign
earnings as well as by the nondeductibility for tax purposes of the amortization
of goodwill and other purchase  accounting  adjustments,  and in 1994, the share
allocations  made by the  Company's  Employee  Stock  Ownership  Plan  ("ESOP").
Through  1994 the ESOP  allocations  were made from a plan  established  in 1988
through a reversion of excess  pension plan  assets.  In 1995 and future  years,
Company  contributions  of either cash or stock to fund ESOP allocations will be
tax deductible.

     As a result  of the  repayment  of debt in the first  quarter  of 1995 upon
completion of the 1995 Refinancing (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources"),  the
first  quarter  of  1995  included  an  extraordinary   charge  of  $30  million
attributable to the write-off of unamortized  debt issuance costs,  for which no
tax benefit was available.

Cash Flows

     Net cash provided by operating activities,  after cash interest paid of $25
million, was $25 million for the first quarter of 1995, compared with $4 million
for the similar period of 1994. The $21 million increase resulted primarily from
improved  operating  results.  The  Company  made  capital  expenditures  of $25
million,  including $5 million of investments in affiliated  companies (compared
with  capital  expenditures  of $18  million  in 1994,  including  $8 million of
investments in affiliated  companies).  Inventories  and  receivables  increased
during the first quarter  reflecting the increased sales volume and the seasonal
pattern  typical of first quarters and expected to recur in the future.  Working
capital  as a  percentage  of sales,  however,  decreased  to 7.1% for the first
quarter of 1995 from 7.6% for the first quarter of 1994. The principal financing
activities during the first quarter of 1995 were related to the 1995 Refinancing
described in "Liquidity and Capital Resources."

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     In the first  quarter of 1995 the Company  completed  the 1995  Refinancing
consisting of the October Borrowing, the Offering and the 1995 Credit Agreement.
This  refinancing  reduced the amount of debt  outstanding,  will  significantly
lower future interest costs and provides less restrictive covenants. The October
Borrowing was used to redeem,  in November 1994,  $317 million of  high-interest
rate bonds  with  lower-rate  bank debt;  the net  proceeds  from the  Offering,
totaling  approximately $281 million,  were used to repay indebtedness;  and the
1995 Credit Agreement provided a secured  multi-currency,  multi-borrower credit
facility  aggregating $1.0 billion,  the proceeds of which replaced  outstanding
borrowings  (including the October  Borrowing) under the Company's previous bank
credit agreement.  Had the Offering and the 1995 Credit Agreement been completed
as of January 1, 1995,  interest  expense  would have been reduced by $4 million
and income  before  extraordinary  item would  have been $31  million  ($.40 per
share) in the first quarter of 1995.

     The  1995  Credit  Agreement  provides  lower  interest  costs,   increased
borrowing capacity,  less restrictive  covenants and lower annual scheduled debt
maturities  through 2001 as compared  with the previous  credit  agreement.  The
Company believes that the amounts  available from operating cash flows and funds
available  under  revolving  facilities  (the  "Revolving  Facilities")  will be
sufficient to meet its expected cash needs and planned capital  expenditures for
the foreseeable future.

     As of May 11, 1995, the Company had outstanding  borrowings of $347 million
under the  Revolving  Facilities.  There was $151  million  available  under the
Revolving Facilities

<PAGE>


     after  reduction  for  borrowings  and for $52 million of letters of credit
usage. In addition the Company's  foreign  subsidiaries  had  approximately  $99
million available under overdraft facilities which can be withdrawn by the banks
at any time. The Revolving  Facilities are short-term  borrowings by their terms
under the 1995 Credit Agreement, and since a portion of the long-term debt under
the Company's  previous bank credit agreement was replaced with borrowings under
the Revolving  Facilities,  a significantly larger portion of debt is classified
as short-term.

     The 1995 Credit  Agreement  contains  various  covenants that limit certain
activities and  transactions  and require the Company to meet certain  financial
tests as described in Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated  Financial  Statements in
the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1994.
Certain American Standard Inc. debt instruments also contain financial tests and
other  covenants.  In order  to  maintain  compliance  with  the  covenants  and
restrictions contained in its previous credit agreements,  it was necessary from
time to time for the  Company to obtain  waivers  and  amendments.  The  Company
believes it is currently in compliance with the covenants  contained in the 1995
Credit  Agreement,  but may have to obtain similar  waivers or amendments in the
future.

     As described in Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the
Company's  Annual Report to  Stockholders  for the year ended December 31, 1994,
there are pending German tax issues for the years 1984 through 1990.  During the
first  quarter of 1995,  the Company  received the first of two reports on audit
findings  and  it was  silent  on one of the  major  issues  under  audit  which
represents  over a third of the  adjustments  the Company  anticipated  that the
German tax authorities  might propose relating to the 1984-1990 period and which
is not an issue in any subsequent period.  While there can be no assurance,  the
Company  believes it is unlikely the issue will be pursued further by the German

Item     1.  Legal Proceedings.

     For a  discussion  of German tax issues see  "Management's  Discussion  and
Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of  Operations  --  Liquidity  and
Capital Resources".

Item     2.  Changes in Securities

     On January 4, 1995, in connection with the Offering, the Board of Directors
of the Company adopted a Stockholder  Rights Plan and declared a dividend of one
right on each outstanding  share of common stock.  Newly issues shares of common
stock  after  that  date  will  have  associated  with  them  such  rights.  The
Stockholder  Rights Plan provides that,  with stated  exceptions,  if any person
acquires more than 15% of the Company's outstanding common stock, the rights are
triggered,  allowing stockholders (other than the 15% holder) to obtain stock in
the Company at half price.  Under certain  circumstances  the Board may exchange
the rights for common  stock at an exchange  ratio of one share of common  stock
per right.  The foregoing  description is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the form of Stockholder Rights Plan filed as an exhibit to the Company's Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994.

     The 1995 Credit  Agreement,  together with certain  American  Standard Inc.
debt instruments,  limit the Company's ability to pay dividends to shareholders.
See "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources". Item 4. Submission of Matters to
a Vote of Security Holders

     By the  written  consent  dated as of  January  4,  1995 of the  holder  of
45,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company  constituting a majority of
the  common  stock  outstanding,  a Restated  Certificate  of  Incorporation  of
American  Standard  Companies  Inc.  was  adopted  which,  among  other  things,
established  a  classified  Board of  Directors,  authorized  issuance of rights
related to the Common Stock of the Company,  imposed a 65%  stockholder  vote to
adopt,  amend or  repeal  certain  provisions  of the  Restated  Certificate  of
Incorporation and By-laws,  prohibited  stockholder action by written consent in
lieu of meeting and imposed  certain  conditions  for  submission of stockholder
proposals and nominations for directors.

     By the  written  consent  dated as of  January  18,  1995 of the  holder of
45,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company, constituting a majority of
the common  stock  outstanding,  the  American  Standard  Companies  Inc.  Stock
