     The Company maintains a $500 million revolving credit facility pursuant to
     an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the Agreement) expiring on July
     31, 2002. The Agreement was amended and restated on May 1, 1997. At
     September 30, 1998, the Company could borrow $500 million. The Agreement
     provides for borrowings under the facility at LIBOR plus .16% or at
     specified bid rates. At September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the LIBOR
     rate was 5.25% and 5.75%, respectively. A fee of .09% is paid on the
     facility. The Agreement, as amended, contains financial and operating
     covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and
     standard provisions limiting leverage, investments and liens.

                YORK INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                                        
Supplemental Notes To Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------


     The Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries maintain bank credit facilities in
     various currencies that provided for available borrowings of $256.7 million
     and $245.2 million at September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997,
     respectively, of which $200.4 million and $175.5 million, respectively,
     were unused. In some instances, borrowings against these credit facilities
     have been guaranteed by the Company to assure availability of funds at
     favorable rates.

     The Company established a commercial paper facility in November 1995.
     Commercial paper borrowings are expected to be reborrowed in the ordinary
     course of business. The interest rate on the commercial paper was 5.65% at
     September 30, 1998 and 5.84% at December 31, 1997.

     During the second quarter of 1997, the Company arranged four separate
     unsecured bank lines similar to commercial paper. These bank lines provide
     for total borrowings of up to $295 million which are expected to be
     reborrowed in the ordinary course of business. At September 30, 1998 and
     December 31, 1997, the Company had $46.9 million and $169.8 million,
     respectively, outstanding under the bank lines. The average rate under the
     bank lines was 5.60% and 5.92% at September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997,
     respectively.

     At September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 the Company had $300 million
     and $100 million of Senior Notes outstanding, respectively. On June 1,
     1998, the Company issued $200 million of 6.70% fixed rate Senior Notes
     having a maturity of ten years from the date of issue (June 2008). The
     proceeds from the sale of the notes were used to pay down the Company's
     commercial paper borrowings and bank lines. The $100 million of Senior
     Notes issued in March 1993 bear interest at a 6.75% fixed rate and are due
     March 2003.

     During 1995, the Company arranged a term loan denominated in a foreign
     currency. The Company borrowed $26.2 million with a final maturity on
     November 15, 1998 with an interest rate of 3.98%. The loan is repayable in
     four annual installments. The term loan agreement contains financial and
     operating covenants that are equivalent to the covenants of the Company's
     Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

     Under a receivables sales agreement entered into in 1992, the Company sold
     a fractional ownership interest in a defined pool of trade accounts
     receivable for $100 million in 1998 and 1997. The sold accounts receivable
     are reflected as a reduction of receivables in the accompanying
     consolidated balance sheets. Under an Amended and Restated Receivables
     Sales Agreement entered into on March 26, 1997, the maximum amount of the
     purchasers' investment is currently $120 million and is subject to decrease
     based on the level of eligible accounts receivable and restrictions on
     concentrations of receivables. The discount rate on the receivables sold at
     September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 was approximately 5.52% and 5.78%,
     respectively.

     During May 1997, the Stockholders approved an amendment to the 1992 Omnibus
     Stock Plan. The Amended and Restated 1992 Omnibus Stock Plan authorizes the
     issuance of up to 4,380,000 shares of the Company's common stock as stock
     options or restricted share awards, of which up to 3% of the total
     outstanding shares are available for restricted share awards. The exercise
     price of stock options granted under the Plan is not less than the fair
     market value of the shares on the date the option is granted. The
     restricted shares are granted at a price determined by the Board of
     Directors. In March, 1998, key employees were awarded options to purchase
     714,815 shares at an exercise price of $43.6875 per share.

     In 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase up to
     6.0 million shares of its Common Stock over the subsequent four years which
     may be used to fund the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the
     Amended and Restated 1992 Omnibus Stock Plan.  The stock purchases are made
     from time to time on the open market. Under the program, 0.6 million shares
     were repurchased on the open market during the nine months ended September
     30, 1998 and 3.4 million shares were repurchased in 1997.

                YORK INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Supplemental Notes To Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



     On June 1, 1998, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-8
     with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of registering
     an additional 1,380,000 shares of Common Stock in connection with its
     Amended and Restated 1992 Omnibus Stock Plan.

(4)  On February 2, 1998, the Company incurred damage to its Grantley
     manufacturing facility in York, PA when tanks used for testing ruptured.
     The accident occurred on the third shift and facilities used in steel
     cutting and rolling operations and heat exchanger production sustained
     substantial damage. The Company has taken a number of measures to limit the
     disruptions and costs resulting from the accident, including moving
     production to other York facilities, outsourcing or subcontracting
     production of certain components, and establishing temporary production
     elsewhere at the Grantley location. The Company is rebuilding the facility
     and fully restoring its production capacity.

     The Company maintains insurance for both property damage and business
     interruption applicable to its production facilities including Grantley.
     The applicable coverage provides for deductibles of $25,000 for property
     damage and $25,000 for business interruption. During the first, second and
     third quarters of 1998, the Company recorded credits of $12.5 million, $5.0
     million, and $3.0 million respectively, to cost of goods sold reflecting
     insurance coverage for estimated incremental expenses and losses included
     in cost of goods sold as a result of the accident. This amount does not
     represent the total business interruption claim or anticipated insurance
     recovery for the first three quarters, nor has the Company recorded any
     amount for the property damage impact (including any insurance recoveries).
     The Company is continuing to accumulate information required to determine
     the total amount for property damage and business interruption related to
     the accident for which it will pursue recovery.

(5)  The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.130
     "Reporting Comprehensive Income" in the first quarter of 1998.
     Comprehensive income is determined as follows (in thousands):

(6)  The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
     (SFAS 128) "Earnings per Share" in 1997, which establishes standards for
     computing and presenting earnings per share. All prior earnings per share
     amounts have been restated to conform to the provisions of SFAS 128.

     The Company's basic earnings per share are based upon the weighted average
     common shares outstanding during the period. The Company's diluted earnings
     per share are based upon the weighted average outstanding common shares and
     common share equivalents.

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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1998 increased 8.1% to $810.4
million as compared to $749.8 million for the three months ended September 30,
1997. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 increased .2% to
$2,440.8 million as compared to $2,434.9 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. Third quarter sales increased in all business groups.

Engineered products group third quarter sales increased 5.6% to $337.0 million
versus $319.0 million in 1997.  The increase was due to strong performance of
the service business and increased equipment volume.  This increase was offset
by a decrease of approximately 10% in Asian sales from the third quarter of
1997.  Year-to-date sales were down 2.5% as a result of disruptions related to
the accident at the Company's Grantley facility and economic downturns in Asia.
Unitary products group sales increased 9.5% to $360.7 million from $329.5
million in the third quarter of 1997 and year-to-date sales increased 4.2%. The
U.S. Unitary market was up significantly in 1998, primarily due to the favorable
weather.  Overall, non-U.S. Unitary sales volumes increased in all regions
except Asia. The Refrigeration products group sales increased 11.3% to $112.7
million from $101.3 million in the third quarter of 1997. The third quarter
Refrigeration growth was the result of improved markets in Europe coupled with
an improvement in the Refrigeration business performance in Europe. Year-to-date
Refrigeration products group sales are slightly up excluding the impact of the
sale of the German Commercial Refrigeration Business in the second quarter of
1997.

For the third quarter of 1998, domestic sales increased 11.1% to $475.5 million.
The increase in domestic sales was primarily a result of the strong domestic
Unitary market. Aggregate non-U.S. sales increased 4.0% from the third quarter
of 1997 to $334.9 million primarily as a result of strong performance in Latin
America partially offset by weakness in the Asian economy.

The following table sets forth third quarter and nine months to date sales by
product and geographic market (in thousands):

Order backlog at September 30, 1998 was $952.8 million which is 22.6% greater
than at September 30, 1997. Domestic backlog increased 26.1% to $559.2 million.
All three business groups experienced increases in backlog compared to September
1997. International backlog increased 18.0% to $393.6 million. International
backlog improved despite the negative effect from the Asian economy.

Gross profit for the quarter was $183.8 million or 22.7% of sales as compared to
$159.8 million or 21.3% of sales for the third quarter of 1997. The 1998 third
quarter gross profit includes a credit of $3.0 million to record a portion of
the anticipated insurance recovery from the Grantley accident. This represents a
partial claim for business interruption

                                   OPERATIONS
                                        
and excludes any impact for property damage and property insurance. Gross profit
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, was $535.7 million or 21.9% of
sales as compared to $512.9 million or 21.1% of sales for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. Improved performance in manufacturing facilities and cost
reduction initiatives resulted in a favorable impact on gross profit.

Engineered products group third quarter and the first nine months of 1998 gross
margin as a percent of sales was flat with 1997. Gross margin benefited from the
impact of service growth, improved operating performance and improved sales
margins driven by product mix, particularly in the third quarter. Lower Asian
volumes and the Grantley accident offset the margin improvements. The Unitary
products group gross margins improved by 32.8% in the third quarter and 11.7% in
the first nine months of 1998 versus 1997. The increase was due to improved
operating performance, cost reductions and a favorable product mix.
Refrigeration products group gross margin decreased over 200 basis points as a
percent of sales in the third quarter 1998 versus the third quarter of 1997.
This margin effect is due to product mix. Specifically, airside refrigeration
products were strong in the quarter while food and beverage refrigeration
shipments were lower than the prior year. Overall, Refrigeration margins
continue to be down in the first nine months of 1998.

Selling, General and Administration (SG&A) expenses in the third quarter of 1998
were flat at $121.9 million or 15.0% of sales compared to $121.6 million or
16.2% of sales for the same quarter of 1997. For the nine months ended September
30, 1998, SG&A expenses decreased 1.6% to $364.9 million or 14.9% of sales
compared to $370.7 million or 15.2% of sales for the nine months ended September
30, 1997.  SG&A spending levels have been controlled effectively, particularly
in Asia where the reduction of spending was in response to the significant
revenue downturn in the region. All business groups effectively controlled SG&A
spending in the first nine months of 1998.

As a result of the above factors, income from operations for the third quarter
of 1998 was $61.9 million compared to $38.2 million for the third quarter of
1997. Income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
increased 20.0% to $170.8 million as compared to $142.3 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997.

Interest expense increased to $10.1 million in the third quarter 1998 from $9.9
million in the same quarter of 1997. The expense includes the impact of higher
borrowing rates offset by the benefit of reduced working capital needs resulting
in lower average borrowings.

Equity in earnings of affiliates for the third quarter of 1998 was $6.0 million
lower than 1997.  This is attributed to a one-time gain recorded in 1997 from
the sale of the Company's minority interest in an Egyptian air conditioning
company.

Provision for income taxes of $5.6 million in the third quarter of 1998 relates
both to U.S. and non-U.S. operations. The tax rate includes a one-time tax
benefit related to export incentives, foreign tax credit planning and other
activities outside the U.S., including closures and consolidations. In addition,
the continued tax planning efforts led to a reduction in the effective rate from
34% to 33%. The effective tax rate for the nine month period, excluding the one-
time benefit, is 33% compared to 32.5% in 1997.

Net income, as a result of the above factors, was $47.3 million ($1.16 per
share) in the third quarter of 1998 as compared to net income of $23.8 million
($0.55 per share) in the third quarter of 1997. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 net income increased to $104.2 million ($2.55 per share)
compared to $80.8 million ($1.86 per share) in the first nine months of 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Working capital requirements are generally met through a combination of
internally generated funds, bank lines of credit, commercial paper issuances,
financing of trade receivables and credit terms from suppliers which approximate
receivable terms to the Company's customers. The Company believes that these
sources, including its


                                  (continued)

bank lines of credit under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, will be
sufficient to meet working capital needs during 1998. Additional sources of
working capital include customer deposits and progress payments.

The Company had working capital of $516.1 million and $535.1 million as of
September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. The current ratio was
1.66 at September 30, 1998, as compared to 1.78 for December 31, 1997.

Long-term indebtedness was $360.3 million at September 30, 1998, primarily
consisting of borrowings of the $300 million senior notes, commercial paper and
bank lines. As of September 30, 1998, there were no borrowings under the
revolving credit facility.

At September 30, 1998, the Company maintained a $500 million Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement (the Agreement) expiring on July 31, 2002. The
Agreement was amended and restated May 1, 1997. The Agreement provides for
borrowings under the facility at LIBOR plus .16% or at specified bid rates and a
fee of .09% is paid on the facility. At September 30, 1998, the LIBOR rate was
5.25%. The Agreement, as amended, contains financial and operating covenants
requiring the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and standard
provisions limiting leverage, investments and liens.

The Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries maintain bank credit facilities in various
currencies that provide for available borrowings of $256.7 million and $245.2
million at September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively, of which
$200.4 million and $175.5 million, respectively, were unused. In some instances,
borrowings against these credit facilities have been guaranteed by the Company
to assure availability of funds at favorable rates.

Commercial paper borrowings are expected to be reborrowed in the ordinary course
of business. The interest rate on the commercial paper was 5.65% and 5.84% as of
September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively.

During the second quarter of 1997, the Company arranged four separate unsecured
bank lines similar to commercial paper. These bank lines provide for total
borrowings of up to $295 million which are expected to be reborrowed in the
ordinary course of business. At September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the
Company had $46.9 million and $169.8 million, respectively outstanding under
these bank lines. The average rate on the bank lines was 5.60% and 5.92%, at
September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively.

At September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 the Company had $300 million and
$100 million of Senior Notes outstanding, respectively. On June 1, 1998 the
Company issued $200 million of 6.70% fixed rate Senior Notes having a maturity
of ten years from the date of issue, June 2008. The proceeds from the sale of
the notes were used to pay down the Company's commercial paper borrowings and
bank lines. The $100 million of Senior Notes issued in March 1993 bear interest
at a 6.75% fixed rate and are due March 2003.

During 1995, the Company arranged a term loan denominated in a foreign currency.
The Company borrowed $26.2 million with a final maturity on November 15, 1998
and an interest rate of 3.98%. The loan is repayable in four annual
installments. The term loan agreement contains financial and operating covenants
that are equivalent to the covenants of the Company's Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement.

The Company has sold a fractional ownership interest in a defined pool of trade
accounts receivable for $100 million. At September 30, 1998 and December 31,
1997, the discount rate on the accounts receivable sold was approximately 5.52%
and 5.78%, respectively.

Because the Company's obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement and Receivables Sales Agreement bear interest at floating rates, the
Company's interest costs are sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates.

Based on historical cash flows, the Company believes that it will be able to
satisfy its principal and interest payment obligations and its working capital
and capital expenditure requirements from operating cash flows together with the
availability under the revolving credit facility and commercial paper
borrowings.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into various types of
transactions that involve contracts and financial instruments with off-balance-
sheet risk. The Company enters into these financial instruments to manage
financial market risk, including foreign exchange, commodity price and interest
rate risk. The Company enters into these financial instruments utilizing over-
the-counter as opposed to exchange traded instruments. The Company mitigates the
risk that counterparties to these over-the-counter agreements will fail to
perform by only entering into agreements with major international financial
institutions.

Capital expenditures currently anticipated for expanded capacity, cost
reductions and the introduction of new products during the next twelve months
will be in excess of depreciation and amortization. These expenditures will be
funded from a combination of operating cash flows and availability under the
revolving credit facility and commercial paper borrowings.

Cash dividends of $0.12 per share were paid on common stock in the third quarter
of 1998. The declaration and payment of future dividends will be at the sole
discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon such factors as the
Company's profitability, financial condition, cash requirements and future
prospects.

Year 2000 Update
- ----------------

General information and state of readiness:

The Company's enterprise-wide Year 2000 (Y2K) Compliance Program (the Program)
was initiated in February, 1997. The Company divided the Program into four
dimensions: information systems; York International products and services;
production equipment and facilities; and supplier capabilities.

As of the end of the third quarter 1998, the Company is testing, validating, and
implementing internal information systems and external information systems
interfaces that are Y2K compliant. These activities include, but are not limited
to, evaluating existing and new hardware and software and where necessary
replacing or modifying these system components to be Y2K compliant. In 1996, the
Company determined that MAPICS would be the enterprise-wide manufacturing
system. Likewise, the Company decided in 1995 to use the Lawson Financial
Systems package at all US locations. During the risk assessment phase of the Y2K
Program, it was determined that by accelerating the deployment of these two
systems components, the Company would remediate a significant percentage of the
Y2K systems issues. Other systems components as well as non-manufacturing
systems internationally are being modified or replaced to achieve Y2K
compliance. Testing and validation is expected to continue into the second
quarter of 1999.

The Company's products verification dimension is complete. The Company has
determined that its residential products are Y2K compliant and will transition
correctly to the year 2000 without manual intervention. In addition, the company
has verified that the vast majority of its commercial and industrial products
utilizing YORK-manufactured or YORK-designed microprocessor control panels or
PLC-based equipment are Y2K compliant.

The Company has conducted an evaluation of its production equipment and process
control capabilities in all manufacturing locations and is remediating those few
components that are not currently Y2K compliant. Similarly, the Company has
evaluated its facilities controls (e.g. elevators, telephone systems, security
systems, etc.) to determine Y2K compliance. In most cases those systems were
found to be Y2K compliant. In isolated situations where the facilities systems
were found to be non-compliant, plans are in place for remediation by the second
quarter of 1999.

The Company has communicated with major and critical suppliers requiring them to
certify Y2K compliance. Further, the Company is establishing plans to conduct
detailed evaluations with critical suppliers to verify compliance. The Company
will be evaluating the necessary "Millennium Stock Levels" to be established for
parts and materials that

continue to develop further contingency plans throughout 1999 as necessary.

The Company expects to incur internal staff costs as well as consulting and
other expenses related to infrastructure and facilities enhancements necessary
to prepare systems and applications for the year 2000.  The cost of testing and
conversion of systems and applications will not have a material affect on the
Company's results of operations or financial position. A significant proportion
of these costs are not likely to be incremental costs to the Company, but rather
will represent the redeployment of existing information technology resources or
be a component of planned system improvements.

Risks:

The Company's failure to correct or develop an adequate contingency plan to
mitigate a material Y2K problem, including problems experienced by suppliers,
could result in an interruption in normal business activities or operations.
However, the Company is confident in the success of its Compliance Program and
that its Compliance Program will allow the Company to complete a successful
transition to the Year 2000.

Euro Conversion
- ---------------

Management has initiated an internal analysis of and planning for the effect the
Euro will have on the operating and financial condition of the Company. The
effect of the Euro is not expected to be material to the Company's operating
results and the Company's competitive exposure is minimal. The Company's
financial systems are Euro compliant and opportunities will continue to be
investigated for European wide system infrastructures.

New Accounting Standards
- ------------------------

In January 1997, the Securities and Exchange Commission amended regulations and
forms, including Regulation S-X and S-K, to clarify and expand existing
disclosure requirements about accounting policies for certain derivative
instruments, and to add new disclosure requirements about the risk of loss from
changes in market rates or prices which are inherent in derivatives. The
Company's disclosures in its annual report on Form 10-K conform to the
disclosure requirements set forth in the amended regulations.  Adoption by the
Company of the disclosure relating to risk of loss, for which requirements are
effective for fiscal years ending after June 15, 1998, are not expected to have
a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No.131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." In January 1998, the FASB issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No.132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions
and Other Postretirement Benefits". These statements establish standards for
reporting information about business segments and products in financial
statements and establish new disclosure requirements relating to pension and
other postretirement benefits. These pronouncements are effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1997.

In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities.
This statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 1999.

Adoption of these statements is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.

Forward-Looking Information -- Risk Factors
- -----------------------------------------

To the extent the Registrant has made "forward-looking statements," certain risk
factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated
in such forward-looking statements including, but not limited to competition,
government regulation, environmental considerations and the Year 2000 Compliance
Program. Unseasonably cool spring or summer weather in the United States or in
Europe could adversely affect the Registrant's residential air conditioning
business. The Engineered air conditioning business could be affected by a
slowdown in the large chiller market, by the level of CFC retrofits, the
rebuilding of the Grantley Manufacturing facility and resolution of the
insurance recovery. Overall performance of the Registrant was affected by the
economic conditions in Asia and future anticipated performance could be affected
by any serious economic downturns in the United States, Europe, Latin America,
or further issues in Asia.
