              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                     For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2000

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

     The interim financial  statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments
(consisting  solely of normal  recurring  adjustments)  that,  in the opinion of
management,  are  necessary  for a fair  statement  of results  for the  interim
periods  presented.  This report  includes  information  in a condensed form and
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
included in Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999, filed by the
Company  with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") on December 29,
1999. The results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2000, are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected  for the full year or any
other interim period.

Note 2. Inventories

     The following is a summary of the major classes of inventories:

                                 September 30, 1999     June 30, 1999
                                 ------------------     -------------
                                                         (Unaudited)

         Raw Materials                $   4,883           $   5,487
         Work-in-process                 38,876              54,032
         Finished Goods                  41,243              37,150
         Other, net                       6,010               9,103
                                      ---------           ---------
         Net inventories              $  91,012           $ 105,772
                                      =========           =========

Note 3. Income Taxes

     The  provision  for income tax es for the nine months  ended June 30, 2000,
differed from the U.S.  Federal  Statutory Rate of 34% primarily due to taxes on
foreign  earnings  against  which the  Company  was unable to  utilize  its U.S.
federal net  operating  loss  carryforwards.  During  fiscal  1999,  the company
reversed  approximately  $4.5 million of its deferred tax  liability  associated
with the undistributed earnings of two foreign affiliates. The Company concluded
that the cumulative earnings from these two affiliates,  $12.2 million,  will be
permanently invested overseas.

Note 4. Terminated Acquisition Costs

     On  March 3,  1998,  the  Company  announced  that  Haynes  Holdings,  Inc.
("Holdings"),  its  parent  corporation,  and  Blackstone  Capital  Partners  II
Merchant  Banking  Fund  L.P.  and  two of its  affiliates  ("Blackstone"),  had
abandoned  their attempt to acquire Inco Alloys  International  ("IAI"),  a 100%
owned business unit of Inco Limited  ("Inco").  Certain  acquisition  costs were
charged to operations in the nine months ended June 30, 1999.

Note 5. Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle

     Effective  January 1, 2000,  the Company  changed its method of  amortizing
unrecognized  actuarial gains and losses with respect to its pension benefits to
amortize  them over the lesser of five years or the  average  remaining  service
period of active  participants.  The method  previously used was to amortize any
unrecognized  gain or loss over the average  remaining  service period of active
participants  (approximately  12 years).  The $640,000  cumulative effect of the
change on prior years (after reduction for income taxes of $426,000) is included
in income of the nine month period ended June 30, 2000.

of Financial  Condition and Results of Operations  refer to the Company's fiscal
years ended September 30, unless otherwise  indicated.  This discussion contains
statements that constitute  forward looking statements within the meaning of the
securities  laws. Such statements may include  statements  regarding the intent,

guarantees of future  performance and involve risks and  uncertainties  and that
actual  results  may  differ  materially  from  those  in  the  forward  looking
statements  as a result  of  various  factors.  This  report  should  be read in
conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations  included in Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September
30, 1999,  filed by the Company with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission on
December 29, 1999.

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

Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1999

     Net  Revenues.  Net  revenues  increased   approximately  $8.6  million  to
approximately  $60.7  million in the third  quarter  of 2000 from  approximately
$52.1 million in the third quarter of 1999. Volume increased approximately 20.0%
to 5.4  million  pounds in the third  quarter  of fiscal  2000  compared  to 4.5
million  pounds  in the third  quarter  of 1999.  The  increase  in  volume  was
partially  offset by a decline in the average  selling price per pound to $11.09
for the third quarter of 2000 compared to $11.40 for the same period in 1999.

     Sales to the aerospace  industry in the third quarter of 2000  increased by
26.6% to  approximately  $24.3  million from $19.2 million for the same period a
year  earlier.  The increased  revenue can be attributed to a 40.0%  increase in
volume,  partially  offset by a 10.8% reduction in the average selling price per
pound. The increased  volume can be attributed to significantly  higher domestic
sales to airframe  component  fabricators  and  improved  demand by domestic and
European gas turbine manufacturers as the industry responds to higher commercial
aircraft build  schedules.  The decrease in the average  selling price per pound
was caused by a lower  proportion  of the  higher  priced  specialty  alloys and
tubulars relative to the lower priced nickel base alloys and product forms.

     Sales  to  the  chemical   processing   industry  decreased  by  1.6%  from
approximately  $19.2 million in the third quarter of 1999 to approximately $18.9
million for the same period in 2000.  A 10.5%  decrease in volume  offset a 7.4%
increase in the average  selling  price per pound.  The decline in volume can be
attributed to decreased worldwide project related activity.

     Sales to the  land-based  gas turbine  industry  increased  by 51.5% in the
third quarter of 2000 to  approximately  $10.3 million from $6.8 million for the
comparable  period in 1999.  The increased  revenue can be attributed to a 57.1%
increase in volume,  partially  offset by a 12.0% decline in the average selling
price.  The increase in volume is due to improved  shipments of nickel- base and
specialty alloy flat products in all geographic  sectors and export shipments of
proprietary alloy products.  Increased billet shipments led to a decrease in the
average selling price per pound.

     Sales to the flue gas desulfurization  industry declined from approximately
$900,000  in the third  quarter of 1999 to  approximately  $700,000 in the third
quarter of 2000, due to the absence of any significant project related business.
This market is generally  characterized  by large project  requirements and very
modest continuing maintenance needs.


                                       8
<PAGE>


     Sales to the oil and gas industry in the third quarter of 2000 increased to
approximately $500,000 from approximately $400,000 in the third quarter of 1999.
Sales to this  industry are typically  linked to sour gas project  requirements,
which vary significantly from quarter to quarter.

     Sales to other industries  increased by 17.0% to approximately $5.5 million
in the  third  quarter  of 2000 from  approximately  $4.7  million  in the third
quarter of 1999.  The increased  revenue was the result of an increase in volume
in the automotive and industrial  heating and wear sectors,  and a 9.8% increase
in the average selling price per pound.

     Cost of  Sales.  Cost of sales as a  percentage  of net  revenues  remained
relatively  flat in the third  quarter of 2000  compared to the third quarter of
1999, at 78.0% and 78.1%, respectively.  Higher raw material costs and inventory
adjustments in the third quarter of 2000 kept costs higher.

     Selling and Administrative  Expenses.  Selling and administrative  expenses
decreased  approximately  $600,000 to  approximately  $6.0  million in the third
quarter of 2000 from  approximately  $6.6 million in the same period a year ago,
primarily as a result of lower expenses related to the Company's compliance with
the Department of Justice's ("DOJ") investigation into the nickel alloy industry
that began in the third quarter of 1999.

     Research and Technical Expenses.  Research and technical expenses decreased
approximately  $100,000 to  approximately  $900,000 in the third quarter of 2000
from  approximately  $1.0 million in the third  quarter of 1999,  primarily as a
result of decreased outside research donations.

     Operating Income. As a result of the above factors,  the Company recognized
operating  income for the third quarter of 2000 of  approximately  $6.5 million,
approximately  $1.4 million of which was  contributed  by the Company's  foreign
subsidiaries.  For the third quarter of 1999, operating income was approximately
$3.9 million, of which  approximately  $800,000 was contributed by the Company's
foreign subsidiaries.

     Other. Other cost was relatively flat in the third quarter of 2000 compared
to the third quarter of 1999.

     Interest  Expense.  Interest expense  increased  approximately  $700,000 to
approximately $5.8 million for the third quarter of 2000 from approximately $5.1
million for the same period in 1999. Higher revolving credit balances and higher
interest rates during the third quarter of 2000 contributed to this increase.

     Income Taxes. Income tax expense of approximately $500,000 was recorded for
the third  quarter of 2000  compared to an income tax  benefit of  approximately
$400,000 in 1999.

     Net Income (Loss). As a result of the above factors, the Company recognized
net income for the third quarter of 2000 of approximately $100,000,  compared to
a net loss of approximately $900,000 for the third quarter of 1999.

     Net Revenues.  Net revenues increased  approximately $9.7 million, or 6.2%,
to  approximately  $166.3  million  in  the  first  nine  months  of  2000  from
approximately  $156.6  million in the first nine months of 1999,  primarily as a
result of a 15.9% increase in shipments, to approximately 14.6 million pounds in
the first nine months of 2000,  from  approximately  12.6 million  pounds in the
first nine months of 1999.  Volume increases  occurred in all markets except the
chemical  processing  industry.  Average  selling prices per pound  decreased to
$11.22  from  $12.16 for the first  nine  months of 2000,  compared  to the same
period in 1999.

     Sales to the aerospace  industry in the first nine months of 2000 increased
by 2.1% to approximately  $67.2 million from approximately $65.8 million for the
same  period  a year  earlier,  primarily  due to a 15.2%  increase  in  volume,
partially  offset by a 12.7% reduction in average  selling price per pound.  The
volume  increase was the result of improved sales of nickel-base  alloy flat and
billet  products  in the  domestic  market.  A lower  proportion  of high priced
specialty  alloys and titanium  tubulars  relative to lower  priced  nickel base
alloys and forms resulted in the decreased  average  selling price per pound for
the nine months in 2000.

     Sales  to  the  chemical   processing   industry  declined  by  14.3%  from
approximately  $55.3 million for the first nine months of 1999 to  approximately
$47.4 million for the same period in 2000,  due to a 13.5%  reduction in volume,
while the average  selling price per pound  remained flat. The decline in volume
is  primarily  due to a decrease  in sales to domestic  distributors,  partially
offset by strong export shipments in support of industry rebuilding.

     Sales to the land-based gas turbine industry  increased 67.3% for the first
nine months of 2000  compared to the same period in 1999.  An 87.5%  increase in
volume was slightly  offset by a 12.5% decrease in the average selling price per
pound,  caused  largely  by an  increased  proportion  of sales of lower  priced
product forms and alloys.

     Sales to the flue gas desulfurization industry increased approximately $1.3
million,  or 44.8%, to  approximately  $4.2 million for the first nine months of
2000  from  approximately  $2.9  million  for the same  period  in 1999,  due to
increased  volume  and  higher  average  selling  prices per pound in support of
stricter air quality standards in countries outside the United States.

     Sales  to the  oil  and gas  industry  in the  first  nine  months  of 2000
increased to approximately  $3.7 million from approximately $1.1 million for the
same period a year ago,  primarily  attributable  to a single  seamless  tubular
project  shipped  during the  period.  Volume  requirements  in this sector vary
substantially from quarter to quarter and year to year.

     Sales to other industries increased by 30.8% to approximately $15.3 million
for the first nine months of 2000 from approximately $11.7 million for the first
nine months of 1999,  on the  strength of  improved  volume and average  selling
price per pound in the automotive,  electronics and industrial  heating and wear
industries.

     Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues  increased to
79.0% for the first nine  months of 2000  compared  to 76.6% in the same  period
last year. The higher cost of sales  percentage in 2000 resulted from higher raw
material costs and higher  distribution  costs for the first nine months of 2000
compared to 1999. In addition,  lower volumes of higher value added coil, sheet,
and seamless product forms due to significant  planned outages in sheet and coil
equipment in the first quarter of 2000,  and inventory  adjustments in the third
quarter of 2000 increased cost of sales for the first nine months of 2000.

     Selling and Administrative  Expenses.  Selling and administrative  expenses
decreased  approximately  $400,000 to  approximately  $17.6 million in the first
nine months of 2000 from  approximately  $18.0 million in the same period a year
ago. Higher administrative costs,  marketing costs and data processing costs for
2000 offset the  reduction  of  expenses  related to the DOJ  investigation  and
change in executive management.

     Research  and  Technical.   Research  and  technical   expenses   decreased
approximately  $200,000 in the first nine  months of 2000  compared to the first
nine  months  of 1999  due to  reduced  operating  costs  and  outside  research
donations.

     Operating Income. As a result of the above factors,  the Company recognized
operating  income  for the  first  nine  months of 2000 of  approximately  $14.6
million,  approximately  $3.9 million of which was  contributed by the Company's
foreign  subsidiaries.  For the first nine months of 1999,  operating income was
approximately $15.7 million, of which approximately $3.3 million was contributed
by the Company's foreign subsidiaries.

     Other.  Other costs  increased  approximately  $200,000 from  approximately
$300,000  in the first nine  months of 1999 to  approximately  $500,000  for the
first nine months of 2000, primarily due to higher contract service fees.

     Terminated Acquisition Costs. Terminated acquisition costs of approximately
$400,000 were  recorded in the first nine months of 1999 in connection  with the
abandoned attempt to acquire IAI by Holdings.

     Interest Expense.  Interest expense increased approximately $1.4 million to
approximately $16.7 million for the first nine months of 2000 from approximately
$15.3 million for the same period in 1999.  Higher revolving credit balances and
higher interest rates contributed to this increase.

     Income Taxes. The benefit from income taxes of  approximately  $400,000 for
the first nine months of 2000 decreased by approximately $4.0 million from a tax
benefit of  approximately  $4.4  million  for the first nine  months of 1999 due
primarily to an adjustment of deferred income taxes in the nine month period for
1999 for  certain  foreign  earnings  that will not be  remitted  to the  United
States.

     Change  in  Accounting  Principle.  The  cumulative  effect  of a change in
accounting  principle  represents a change in the Company's method of amortizing
unrecognized  actuarial  gains and losses with respect to its pension  benefits.
The cumulative effect includes income of approximately $1.0 million,  reduced by
approximately $400,000 for taxes.

     Net Income. As a result of the above factors,  the Company recognized a net
loss for the first nine months of 2000, of approximately $1.5 million,  compared
to a net income of approximately $4.2 million for the first nine months of 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's near-term future cash needs will be driven by working capital
requirements,  and  planned  capital  expenditures.  Capital  expenditures  were
approximately  $8.3  million  in the first  nine  months of 2000  ($1.0  million
related  to  foreign  subsidiary  capital  expenditures),  compared  to  capital
expenditures  of  approximately  $7.4 million for the first nine months of 1999.
The remainder of planned 2000  expenditures  will be for  improvements  in cost,
quality, capacity and reliability of manufacturing operations.  The Company does
not expect such capital  expenditures  to have a material  adverse effect on its
long-term  liquidity.  The Company expects to fund its working capital needs and
capital  expenditures  with  cash  provided  from  operations,  supplemented  by
borrowings  under its Revolving  Credit Facility with Fleet Capital  Corporation
("Fleet Revolving Credit Facility"), and capital lease obligations.  The Company
believes  these  sources of capital  will be  sufficient  to fund these  capital
expenditures and working capital requirements over the next 12 months,  although
there can be no assurance of this. On August 8, 2000, Fleet Capital  Corporation
amended the Fleet Revolving Credit Facility which eliminated some of the foreign
account  debtors  from  the  collateral  borrowing  base.  This  amendment  will
negatively  impact the borrowing  availability  for the Company of approximately
nil by $2.0 million,  depending on the level of foreign accounts  receivable and
the collateral base.

     Net cash used in operating  activities in the first nine months of 2000 was
approximately  $7.6  million,  as  compared to net cash  provided  by  operating
activities of  approximately  $9.6 million in the first nine months of 1999. The
negative  cash flow from  operations  for 2000 was  primarily  the  result of an
increase in inventories of approximately  $15.7 million, an increase in accounts
receivable of approximately  $4.1 million,  and net loss of  approximately  $1.5
million.  The  negative  cash flow was also  affected by an increase in accounts
payable  and  accrued   expenses  of  approximately   $11.4  million,   non-cash
depreciation and amortization  expense of approximately $3.3 million,  and other
net adjustments used in operating activities of approximately $1.0 million.

     Net cash used in  investing  activities  increased  to  approximately  $7.6
million in the first nine months of 2000 from  approximately $7.0 million in the
same period for 1999,  primarily as a result of increased capital spending.  Net
cash  provided  by  financing  activities  for the first nine months of 2000 was
approximately $16.1 million,  compared to net cash used in investing  activities
of approximately $2.9 million for the first nine months of 1999,  primarily as a
result of  increased  net  borrowings  by the  Company in  support of  increased
working capital requirements.

     Cash for the first nine months of 2000  increased  approximately  $100,000,
resulting in a June 30, 2000 cash balance of approximately $3.7 million. Cash in
the first nine months of 1999 decreased approximately  $500,000,  resulting in a
cash balance of approximately $3.2 million at June 30, 1999.

     Total debt at June 30, 2000, was  approximately  $201.5 million compared to
approximately  $172.2 million at June 30, 1999,  reflecting  increased borrowing
under the Facility and by the Company's French affiliate.

     At June 30, 2000, approximately $59.9 million had been borrowed pursuant to
the Fleet Revolving Credit Facility  compared to approximately  $32.6 million at
June 30, 1999.  In  addition,  as of June 30,  2000,  approximately  $500,000 in
Letter of Credit reimbursement obligations had been incurred by the Company. The
Fleet Revolving Credit Facility includes a reserve for accrued interest, payable
March 1 and  September 1, in connection  with the Senior Notes of  approximately
$5.4 million at June 30, 2000.  The Company had available  additional  borrowing
capacity of approximately $6.1 million on the Fleet Revolving Credit Facility at
June 30, 2000.

Grand Jury Investigation

     A Federal Grand Jury, which had been investigating  possible  violations of
federal  anti-trust  laws in the nickel alloy  industry since March of 1999, was
concluded in June, 2000,  without any adverse actions being taken against any of
the companies involved,  including Haynes. Certain costs incurred by the Company
in connection with the  investigation  have been accounted for as administrative
expenses and charged against income in the period.  For the year ended September
30,  1999,  and the nine month  period  ended June 30,  2000,  these  costs were
approximately $3.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

Accounting Pronouncements

     SFAS  No.  133,   "Accounting   for  Derivative   Instruments  and  Hedging
Activities",  is effective  for all fiscal  quarters of fiscal  years  beginning
after  July  1,  2000.  This  statement  establishes  accounting  and  reporting
standards for derivative  instruments  and for hedging  activities.  It requires
that an entity  recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial  condition and measure those  instruments  at fair value.
Management  has  not yet  quantified  the  effect  of the  new  standard  on the
financial statements.

Year 2000 Costs

     The Company did not realize any  detrimental  effect relating to Year 2000.
All  manufacturing  and business systems are functioning in the manner they were
intended to operate.  Furthermore,  the Company has not experienced any problems
with its customers or suppliers regarding Year 2000. The Company is not aware of
any  uncertainties,  but in the event one should arise,  the Company's Year 2000
Committee will remain active to respond to such an occurrence.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     At June 30, 2000,  the Company's  primary  market risk exposure was foreign
currency  exchange rate risk with respect to forward  contracts  entered into by
the Company's foreign  subsidiaries  located in England and France.  The Company
did not have any outstanding commodity contracts at June 30, 2000.

     The foreign currency exchange risk exists primarily because the two foreign
subsidiaries need U.S. dollars in order to pay for their intercompany  purchases
of high  performance  alloys  from the  Company's  U.S.  locations.  The foreign
subsidiaries  manage their own foreign  currency  exchange risk. Any U.S. dollar
exposure  aggregating  more than $500,000  requires  approval from the Company's
Vice President of Finance.  Most of the currency  contracts to buy U.S.  dollars
are with maturity dates of less than six months.

     At June 30, 2000, the unrealized  loss on these foreign  currency  exchange
contracts was approximately $2,000.
