under Chapter 11 ("Chapter 11") of title 11 of the United States code in
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
("Bankruptcy Court"). In Chapter 11, Welcome Home continued to manage its
affairs and operate its business as a debtor-in-possession. The results of
Welcome Home were not consolidated with the Company's results for the
period between January 21, 1997 and July 21, 1999 as the Company no longer
had the ability to control the operations and financial affairs of the
Company. On July 21, 1999, Welcome Home emerged from bankruptcy, whereupon
the Company now owns 100% of the outstanding common stock of Welcome Home,
for consideration paid to creditors of approximately $2,274. The results of
Welcome Home are consolidated with the Company's results from the day of
the emergence, as the Company has regained operational and financial
control of Welcome Home.

telecommunications and data communications products business from the

$264,027 in cash, $10,000 of assumed indebtedness and preferred stock, and
the issuance to the Company of $20,000 aggregate liquidation preference of
JTP Junior Preferred Stock. The Company's stockholders and affiliates and
JTP management invested in and acquired the JTP common stock. As a result
of the recapitalization, certain of the Company's affiliates and JTP
management owned substantially all of the JTP common stock. The Company's
investment in JTP was represented solely by the JTP Junior Preferred Stock.
The JTP Junior Preferred Stock represented 95% of JTP's stockholder voting
rights and accreted 95% of JTP's net income or loss. The Company had
obtained an independent opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point
of view, of the recapitalization to the Company and its public bondholders.

On January 18, 2000, the Company's affiliates sold the common stock of JTP
to a third party and the Company sold its interest in the preferred stock
for $54,100. The Company also received $6,535 for reimbursement of
expenses, $12,000 for the buyout of the management services agreements, and
$3,900 for an advisory and indemnity fee. The Company has recognized a gain
of $187,184 in the first six months of 2000, net of taxes of approximately
$28,000.

For the six months ended June 30, 2000 and the year ended December 31,
1999, JTP's net sales were $20,724 and $431,310, respectively. The losses

party and the Company sold its interest in the preferred stock for $10,000
in marketable securities. The Company also received $60,750 in marketable
securities for its intercompany notes and $2,000 in cash for the buyout of
the management services agreements. The marketable securities will be sold
for cash of $70,750 in August

       Specialty Printing and Labeling. As of June 30, 2000, the Specialty
Printing and Labeling group ("SPL") consisted of SPAI, Valmark, Pamco, and
Seaboard.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased $0.1 million, or 0.4%,
over the same period in 1999. This increase was due to higher sales of
school annuals and ad specialties at SPAI, $0.4 million and $0.2 million,
respectively, higher sales of screen printed products and rollstock at
Valmark, $0.9 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and increased sales
of folding boxes at Seaboard, $0.8 million. Partially offsetting these
increases were decreased sales of calendars at SPAI, $2.3 million. Net
sales for the first six months of 2000 increased $3.4 million, or 6.4%,
over the same period in 1999. This increase was due to higher sales of
school annuals and ad specialties at SPAI, $0.4 million and $1.4 million,
respectively, increased sales of screen printed products, membrane switches
and roll stock at Valmark, $2.0 million, $0.2 million, and $0.3 million,
respectively, higher sales of labels at Pamco, $0.4 million, and increased
sales of folding boxes at Seaboard $1.3 million. Partially offsetting these
increases were decreased sales of calendars at SPAI, $2.5 million, and
lower sales of shrouds at Valmark, $0.1 million. The decrease in sales of
calendars at SPAI is primarily due to a slowdown in calendar shipments
stemming from SPAI's decision to outsource production. Production and
shipments will increase significantly in the second half of 2000, as
evidenced by the increase in the calendar backlog at June 30, 2000. The
increase in sales at Valmark is primarily the result of Valmark's
successful initiative to provide Apple Computer with the product
identification labels for it's new computer products.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2000 decreased $0.1 million, or
1.6%, compared with the same period in 1999. This decrease was due to lower
operating income at SPAI and Pamco, $0.1 million and $0.3 million,
respectively, partially offset by higher operating income at Valmark and
Seaboard, $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The second quarter
decrease at Pamco was due to additional expenses incurred for the start up
of a new facility in Pennsylvania. For the first six months of 2000,
operating income increased $0.8 million, or 25.2%, over the same period in
1999. This six month increase over 1999 was due to higher operating income
at SPAI, Valmark and Seaboard, $0.1 million, $0.5 million, and $0.2
million, respectively. These increases can be attributed to the higher
sales mentioned above as well as more efficient monitoring of production,
inventory levels, and operating expenses.

Operating margin for the second quarter of 2000 remained consistent with
the same period in 1999, while the operating margin for the first six
months of 2000 increased 1.1% over 1999, from 6.1% in 1999 to 7.2% in 2000.
Operating margin increased due to the reasons mentioned above.

       Jordan Specialty  Plastics.  As of June 30, 2000, the Jordan Specialty
Plastics group ("JSP")  consisted of Beemak,  Sate-Lite, and Deflecto.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased $3.7 million, or 18.2%,
over the same period in 1999. This increase was primarily due to the
acquisitions of Teleflow, Yearntree, and IDL (all subsidiaries of Deflecto)
in July and December of 1999 and June of 2000, respectively. Teleflow,
Yearntree and IDL contributed net sales in the second quarter of 2000 of
$2.3 million, $1.3 million, and $0.6 million, respectively. In addition,
sales of thermoplastic colorants increased at Sate Lite, $0.4 million.
Partially offsetting these increases were decreased sales

of miscellaneous plastic injection molded products at Sate Lite and Beemak,
$0.8 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Net sales for the first six
months of 2000 increased $7.5 million, or 18.7%, over the same period in
1999. This increase was also primarily due to the acquisitions mentioned
above. Teleflow, Yearntree, and IDL contributed net sales in the first half
of 2000 of $4.8 million, $2.5 million, and $0.6 million, respectively. In
addition, sales of thermoplastic colorants at Sate Lite increased $0.9
million. Partially offsetting these increases were lower sales of plastic
injection molded products at Sate Lite and Beemak, $1.1 million and $0.2
million, respectively.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2000 increased $0.8 million, or
100.3%, over the same period in 1999. This increase was partially due to
higher operating income at Deflecto, $0.5 million, resulting from the
acquisitions of Teleflow, Yearntree, and IDL mentioned above. In addition,
operating income increased at Sate Lite and Beemak, $0.2 million and $0.1
million, respectively. For the first six months of 2000, operating income
increased $1.3 million, or 91.6%, over the same period in 1999. The primary
reason for the increase was higher operating income at Deflecto, $1.2
million, due to the acquisitions discussed above. Operating income at Sate
Lite also increased $0.1 million. The increase in operating income at Sate
Lite was due to higher overhead absorption in the China facility as
production efficiencies and sales continue to improve.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2000 increased 2.6%, from 3.9%
in 1999 to 6.5% in 2000, while operating income for the first six months of
2000 increased 2.2%, from 3.7% in 1999 to 5.9% in 2000. These increases are
due to the Deflecto acquisitions mentioned above as well as greater
efficiencies at Sate Lite.

       Jordan Auto Aftermarket.  As of June 30, 2000, the Jordan Auto
Aftermarket group ("JAAI") consisted of Dacco and Alma.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2000 decreased $2.2 million, or 5.5%,
compared with the same period in 1999. Net sales decreased due to lower
sales of torque converters at Dacco, $0.7 million, and decreased sales of
torque converters and air conditioning compressors at Alma, $0.8 million
and $0.7 million, respectively. For the first six months of 2000, net sales
increased $13.6 million, or 21.7%, over the same period in 1999. The
primary reason for this increase was the acquisition of Alma in March 1999.
Alma contributed net sales in the first half of 2000 of $42.2 million
compared with $27.5 million in the first half of 1999. Partially offsetting
this increase were decreased sales of torque converters at Dacco, $1.1
million. Sales of torque converters at Dacco and Alma and air compressors
at Alma were primarily affected by the lack of extreme temperatures
experienced so far in 2000. Transmissions burn out faster in inclement
weather or very hot temperatures, and air conditioning units are only used
when the temperature exceeds a certain level.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2000 decreased $1.1 million, or
16.8%, compared with the same period in 1999. Operating income decreased at
Dacco and Alma, $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively due to the
decreased sales mentioned above. In addition, second quarter operating
income was effected by the addition of corporate expenses, $0.4 million.
For the first six months of 2000, operating income increased $0.1 million,
or 1.3%, compared with the same period in 1999. This increase was primarily
due to the acquisition of Alma, as mentioned above. Alma contributed
operating income in the first half of 2000 of $6.1

million compared with $4.3 million in the first half of 1999. Partially
offsetting this increase, was decreased operating income at Dacco, $0.9
million, and the addition of corporate expenses, $0.8 million.

Operating margin for the second quarter of 2000 decreased 1.9%, from 15.4%
in 1999 to 13.5% in 2000, while operating income for the first six months
of 2000 decreased 2.7%, from 16.4% in 1999 to 13.7% in 2000. Operating
income decreased due to the reasons mentioned above.

       Motors and Gears. As of June 30, 2000, the Motors and Gears group
consisted of Imperial, Gear, Merkle-Korff, FIR, ED&C, Motion Control and
Advanced DC.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased $4.7 million, or 6.0%,
over the same period in 1999. This increase was due to higher sales in the
controls segment, 23%, and higher sales of fractional/integral motors, 8%.
Partially offsetting these increases were lower sales of subfractional
motors, 7%. Net sales for the first six months of 2000 increased $7.9
million, or 5.1%, over the same period in 1999. This increase was due to
higher sales of controls, 29%, and fractional/integral motors, 3%.
Partially offsetting these increases were lower sales of subfractional
motors, 6%. The decrease in subfractional motor sales was driven primarily
by weakness in the bottle and can vending market. The growth in
fractional/integral motor sales was led by strong demand for AC products,
partially offset by a negative impact of foreign currency translation at
Motors and Gears' foreign operations.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2000 increased $0.4 million, or
3.2%, over the same period in 1999. Operating income increased due to
higher operating income in both the controls and motors segments, 18% and
1%, respectively. Operating income for the first six months of 2000
increased $0.4 million, or 1.6%, over the same period in 1999. This
increase was due to higher operating income in the controls segment, 31%,
partially offset by lower operating income in the motors segment, 1%. These
variances were primarily due to the sales variances described above.

Operating margin for the second quarter of 2000 decreased 0.4%, from 17.4%
in 1999 to 17.0% in 2000, while operating margin for the first six months
of 2000 decreased 0.6%, from 17.3% in 1999 to 16.7% in 2000. The decrease
in operating margin was largely due to the timing of certain corporate
expenses, partially offset by increased gross margins. Gross margins
improved due to product design changes, manufacturing process improvements,
and material cost savings.

      Consumer and Industrial  Products.  As of June 30, 2000, the Consumer
and  Industrial  Products group  consisted of Riverside, Cape, Welcome Home,
Cho-Pat, and Online Environs.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased $7.6 million, or 34.4%,
over the same period in 1999. Sales increased primarily due to the
reconsolidation of Welcome Home resulting from its emergence from
bankruptcy in July 1999 (see note F). Welcome Home contributed net sales of
$11.7 million in the second quarter of 2000. Sales also increased due to
the acquisition of Online Environs in March 2000. Online contributed sales
of $1.8 million in the second quarter. In addition, sales of Bibles and
Bible accessories increased at Riverside, $0.4 million, and sales of
orthopedic supports increased at Cho-Pat, $0.1 million.

Partially offsetting these increases were lower sales at Parsons, $3.2
million, due to the divestiture of that company in November 1999. Sales
also decreased due to lower sales of books and other gift items at
Riverside, $0.9 million. Although sales at Cape appear to have decreased
$2.3 million, the decrease was due to the reconsolidation of Welcome Home
and the resulting elimination of intercompany sales from Cape to Welcome
Home. Sales from Cape to third parties increased $1.0 million in the second
quarter of 2000 due to improved products and additional customers.

Net sales for the first six months of 2000 increased $9.1 million, or
19.3%, over the same period in 1999. This increase was also primarily due
to the reconsolidation of Welcome Home and the acquisition of Online
Environs. Welcome Home and Online Environs contributed net sales in the
first half of 2000 of $20.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively. In
addition, sales of Bibles and Bible accessories at Riverside increased $0.6
million and sales of orthopedic supports at Cho-Pat increased $0.2 million.
Partially offsetting these increases were lower sales at Dura Line Retube
and Parsons, $1.2 million and $6.7 million, respectively, due to the
divestitures of those companies in March and November 1999, respectively.
In addition, sales of books and other gift items at Riverside decreased
$1.7 million. Sales at Cape appear to have decreased $4.8 million, but this
was due to the reconsolidation of Welcome Home as mentioned above. Sales
from Cape to third parties increased $1.3 million.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2000 decreased $0.6 million, or
33.9%, compared with the same period in 1999. This decrease was primarily
due to lower operating income at Welcome Home, $0.7 million, due to its
reconsolidation, as mentioned above. In addition, operating income
decreased $0.8 million due to the divestiture of Parsons. Partially
offsetting these decreases was higher operating income at Online Environs,
$0.7 million, due to its acquisition in March 2000. Operating income also
increased at Cape and Cho-Pat, $0.1 million each, due to the higher sales
levels discussed above. For the first six months of 2000, operating income
decreased $2.9 million, or 97.5%, compared with the same period in 1999.
This was also primarily due to the reconsolidation of Welcome Home. Welcome
Home contributed operating income of $(2.4) million in the first half of
2000. This was a typical six months for Welcome Home as it is a seasonal
business with the vast majority of its operating income realized in the
fourth quarter. In addition, operating income for the six months decreased
$1.5 million due to the divestiture of Parsons. Partially offsetting these
decreases was higher operating income at Online Environs, $0.7 million, due
to its acquisition, as well as higher operating income at Riverside and
Cho-Pat, $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Operating margin for the second quarter of 2000 decreased 3.7%, from 7.3%
in 1999 to 3.6% in 2000, while operating margin for the first six months of
2000 decreased 6.2%, from 6.3% in 1999 to 0.1% in 2000. These decreases are
primarily the result of the reconsolidation of Welcome Home and the
divestiture of Parsons.

Consolidated Results:  (See Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations).

Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased  $13.9
million, or 7.2%, over the same period in 1999.  This increase was primarily
due to the acquisitions of Teleflow,  Yearntree, and IDL in the Jordan
Specialty Plastics group, and Online Environs in the Consumer and Industrial
Products group.  Net

sales also increased due to the reconsolidation of Welcome Home resulting
from its emergence from bankruptcy in July 1999. In addition, second
quarter sales increased due to higher sales of school annuals and ad
specialties at SPAI, screen printed products at Valmark, folding boxes at
Seaboard, thermoplastic colorants at Sate Lite, controls and
fractional/integral motors at Motors and Gears, Bibles and Bible
accessories at Riverside, and home accessories at Cape. Partially
offsetting these higher sales were decreased sales of calendars at SPAI,
plastic injection molded products at Sate Lite, torque converters and air
conditioning compressors in the Jordan Auto Aftermarket group, and
subfractional motors at Motors and Gears. Sales also decreased due to the
divestitures of Dura Line Retube and Parsons in March and November 1999,
respectively.

For the first six months of 2000, consolidated net sales increased $41.4
million, or 11.6%, over the same period in 1999. This increase was also
primarily due to the acquisitions mentioned above as well as the
acquisition of Alma in March 1999. The reconsolidation of Welcome Home also
contributed to the increase in net sales for the first half of 2000. In
addition, sales increased due to higher sales of screen printed products
and roll stock at Valmark, labels at Pamco, folding boxes at Seaboard,
thermoplastic colorants at Sate Lite, controls and fractional/integral
motors at Motors and Gears, Bibles and Bible accessories at Riverside, and
orthopedic supports at Cho-Pat. Partially offsetting these increases were
lower sales of calendars at SPAI, plastic injection molded products at Sate
Lite and Beemak, torque converters at Dacco, and subfractional motors at
Motors and Gears. Sales also decreased due to the sales of Dura Line Retube
and Parsons, as mentioned above.

Consolidated operating income for the second quarter of 2000 increased $0.1
million, or 0.5%, over the same period in 1999. This increase was due to
the acquisitions mentioned above as well as higher operating income at
Valmark, Seaboard, Sate Lite, Beemak, and the controls and motors segments
of Motors and Gears. Operating income also increased due to lower corporate
overhead. Partially offsetting these increases was decreased operating
income resulting from the divestitures and reconsolidation mentioned above,
as well as lower operating income at Pamco, Dacco, and Alma. For the first
six months of 2000, consolidated operating income increased $1.1 million,
or 2.6%, over the same period in 1999. This increase was primarily due to
the acquisitions discussed above and higher operating income at SPAI,
Valmark, Seaboard, Sate Lite, the controls segment of Motors and Gears,
Riverside, and Cho-Pat. In addition, operating income increased due to
lower corporate overhead. Partially offsetting these increases was lower
operating income resulting from the divestitures mentioned above as well as
decreased operating income at Dacco, the motors segment of Motors and
Gears, and Welcome Home. The decreased operating income at Dacco is
primarily due to the lack of extreme cold and hot weather experienced
throughout 2000 and the resulting lower sales volume, while the lower
operating income at Welcome Home is due to the seasonal nature of Welcome
Home's business.

Consolidated operating margin for the second quarter of 2000 decreased
0.8%, from 12.7% in 1999 to 11.9% in 2000, while consolidated operating
income for the first six months of 2000 decreased 0.9%, from 11.4% in 1999
to 10.5% in 2000. The decrease in operating margin is due to the reasons
mentioned above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

In general, the Company requires liquidity for working capital, capital
expenditures, interest, taxes, debt repayment and its acquisition strategy.
Of primary importance are the Company's working capital requirements, which
increase whenever the Company experiences strong incremental demand or
geographical expansion. The Company expects to satisfy its liquidity
requirements through a combination of funds generated from operating
activities and the funds available under its revolving credit facilities.

The Company had approximately $221.7 million of working capital from
continuing operations at June 30, 2000 compared to approximately $160.3
million at the end of 1999. The increase in working capital during the
first six months of 2000 was primarily due to higher marketable securities
and inventories of $70.1 million and $10.6 million, respectively. These
increases in working capital are partially offset by higher accrued
liabilities and taxes payable of $10.1 million and $15.4 million,
respectively.

Operating activities. Net cash used in operating activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 was $10.2 million compared to net cash provided
by operating activities of $19.4 million during the same period in 1999.
The decrease in cash is primarily due to increases in non-current assets as
compared to the same period in the prior year, partially offset by a
smaller increase in current assets as compared to the prior year.

Investing activities. Net cash provided by investing activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 was $20.5 million compared to net cash used in
investing activities of $124.1 million during the same period in 1999. The
increase was primarily due to decreased spending on acquisitions and the
proceeds from the sale of discontinued operations in the current year.

Financing activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 was $8.3 million compared to net cash provided
by financing activities of $114.7 million during the same period in 1999.
This decrease is primarily due to the net proceeds of $149.8 million from
the Jordan Industries, Inc. senior debt issuance in the prior year.
Partially offsetting this decrease was the payment of financing costs
resulting from this debt issuance in the prior year.

The Company expects its principal sources of liquidity to be from its
operating activities and funding from its revolving lines of credit. The
Company further expects that these sources will enable it to meet its
long-term cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures,
interest, taxes, and debt repayment for at least the next twelve months.

The Company is party to various credit agreements under which the Company
is able to borrow up to $160.0 million to fund acquisitions, provide
working capital and for other general corporate purposes. The credit
agreements mature at various dates through 2002. The agreements are secured
by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company's
assets. As of August 11, 2000, the Company had approximately $83.0 million
of available funds under these arrangements.

In addition, Welcome Home, a subsidiary of the Company, has a Security
Agreement with Fleet, which provides for maximum borrowings of $15.0
million. The agreement is secured by essentially all the assets of Welcome
Home and expires October 29, 2003. As of August 11, 2000, Welcome Home had
approximately $6.1 million of available funds under this agreement.

Impact of Year 2000

The Company experienced no significant disruptions in mission critical
information technology and non-information technology systems and believes
those systems successfully responded to the Year 2000 date change.

Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

The Company's debt obligations are primarily fixed-rate in nature and, as
such, are not sensitive to changes in interest rates. At June 30, 2000, the
Company had $78.9 million of variable rate debt outstanding. A one
percentage point increase in interest would increase the annual amount of
interest paid by approximately $0.8 million. The Company does not believe
that its market risk financial instruments on June 30, 2000 would have a
material effect on future operations or cash flows.

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency
exchange rates, including fluctuations in the functional currency of
foreign operations. The functional currency of operations outside the
United States is the respective local currency. Foreign currency
translation effects are included in accumulated other comprehensive income
in shareholder's equity.
