The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements
of  Hyster-Yale  Materials Handling, Inc. and  subsidiaries  (the
Company) include the accounts of  Hyster-Yale Materials Handling,
Inc.     (Hyster-Yale),   a   97%  owned  subsidiary   of   NACCO

NACCO Materials Handling Group, Inc. and NACCO Materials Handling
Holding  Co.   The  Company  primarily  does  business  as  NACCO

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance  with
generally  accepted accounting principles for  interim  financial

accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In  the
opinion  of  management, all adjustments  (consisting  of  normal
recurring  accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation

</TABLE>

Increased  unit  volume in 1994 reflects the  continued  economic
improvement  in North America and improvements in  global  market
share.   European volume continues to be impacted by the European
recession.  While price discounting continues to be prevalent  in
the forklift industry, pricing has improved slightly in 1994 over
1993.    Sales  mix  changes  to  higher  margin  products   have
positively affected results of operations in 1994.  Service parts
volume  and  income  continues to improve in  North  America  and
Europe  due  to  the improving economy in North America  and  new
dealers in Europe.

Manufacturing costs decreased in first quarter 1994  compared  to
1993 due to higher production volumes which resulted in increased
overhead  absorption.  New product introductions  also  increased
1993  manufacturing costs.  Other operating expenses were  higher
in  1994  due primarily to new marketing programs.  First Quarter
1994  operating  profits  were also  adversely  affected  by  the
stronger  Japanese  Yen  which increased the  cost  of  purchases
sourced from Japan.

FINANCIAL REVIEW  (Continued)



The   Company's  backlog  of  orders  at  March  31,   1994   was
approximately  18,500  units compared  to  the  12,000  units  at
December  31,  1993.  Backlog has increased due to a  significant
increase in orders from dealers both in North America and Europe.
The  market  in  Europe, however, is still  at  historically  low
levels.  The strong first quarter 1994 order rate has resulted in
longer lead times for selected models.

Other
- - -----
Interest  expense during the three month period of 1994 was  $8.7
million compared to $10.4 million in the same period a year  ago.
Lower 1994 interest expense is primarily due to lower debt levels
resulting  from the July 1993 retirement of $50 million  12  3/8%
subordinated debentures.

The  Company  has  entered  into  unsecured  interest  rate  swap
agreements  for  a portion of its floating rate debt  to  provide
protection against significant increases in interest  rates.   At
March  31,  1994, the Company had outstanding interest rate  swap
agreements with total notional principal amounts of $125 million.
The  Company  will continue to evaluate its exposure to  floating
rate debt.

                                            =====       =====
</TABLE>

The equity losses in unconsolidated subsidiaries primarily result
from  recording  50%  of the operating losses  of  the  Company's
Sumitomo-Yale (S-Y) joint venture.  The losses in 1994  and  1993
are due to the strong yen and depressed Japanese domestic market.

Provision for Income Taxes
The  Company recorded a tax provision of $1.0 million  on  pretax
income  of  $1.9  million in 1994 for an effective  tax  rate  of
53.5%.  The higher than statutory rate results primarily from the
nondeductibility of goodwill amortization.  This  compares  to  a
benefit of $0.6 million on a pretax loss of $1.4 million  in  the
first  quarter of 1993 for an effective tax rate of  45.5%.   The
lower  tax  rate in 1993 primarily reflects tax benefits  on  the
sale of property in 1993 not expected in 1994.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The  Company  believes it can adequately meet all of its  current
and  long-term commitments and operating needs through internally
generated  funds and borrowings available under revolving  credit
agreements.   As  of  March  31, 1994  there  was  $89.3  million
available under the senior bank revolving credit facility.

Expenditures for property, plant and equipment were $6.3  million
for  the  first  three  months of 1994.  The  majority  of  these
expenditures were for manufacturing expansion and tooling related
to   future  production  of  new  products.   Estimated   capital
expenditures  for  the  remainder of 1994 will  be  approximately
$18.7  million.   Principal sources of  financing  these  capital
expenditures are internally generated funds, bank borrowings  and
assistance grants from local development boards.
