3. At March 31, 1995, the company was not in compliance with
the interest expense coverage ratio covenant of the
revolving credit agreement. The company has obtained a
waiver for this condition and other minor technical defaults
from the syndicate of banks which provide the revolving
credit facility. Additionally, the company obtained an
amendment to the revolving credit agreement to adjust the
interest expense coverage ratio covenant from 2.5:1 to
2.25:1 at June 30, 1995 and September 30, 1995. With the
exception of the above, the company was in compliance with
all covenants contained in the revolving credit agreement
and the senior subordinated note indenture at March 31,
1995.
The company has also obtained amendments to the revolving
credit agreement which; (a) allow use of the proceeds from
an equity offering to reduce senior subordinated notes in
excess of the original limitation of $25 million, and,
(b) allow the company to reduce senior subordinated notes by
an additional $25 million. A further amendment to the revolving
credit agreement to allow use of the proceeds from the sale of
SPX Credit Corporation to reduce the senior subordinated notes
requires approval of 100% of the participating banks is pending.
Resolution of this matter is expected in the second quarter.
4. In April, the company announced its intention to sell SPX
Credit Corporation. This sale is anticipated to occur
before year-end 1995. Currently, the company is negotiating
with potential buyers and does not know with certainty the
selling price of this business. Preliminary assessment of
market conditions indicate that the sales price should be at
least the company's carrying value of this business.

On the following pages, revenues, operating income and
related items are discussed by segment. The following provides
explanation of general corporate expenses and other consolidated
items that are not allocated to the segments.
General Corporate expense
These expenses represent general unallocated expenses and
are consistent and comparable between years.
Other expense (income), net
Represents expenses not included in the determination of
operating results, including gains or losses on currency
exchange, translation gains or losses due to translation of
financial statements in highly inflationary countries, the fees
incurred on the sale of accounts receivable under the company's
accounts receivable securitization program, gains or losses on
the sale of fixed assets and unusual non-operational gains or
losses. In the first quarter of 1995, a $1.5 million gain was
recorded on the sale of the company's aftermarket distribution
business. 1994 annual revenues of this business were
approximately $14 million. Prospectively, the company will sell
the products previously sold through this business to the buyer
rather than directly to the aftermarket.
<PAGE> 8
Interest Expense, net
The first quarter 1995 interest expense, net reflects the
debt structure in place after the 1994 refinancing. The level of
interest expense, $10.7 million, was comparable with interest
expense of the third and fourth quarters of 1994. The
refinancing was completed during the second quarter of 1994 and
included obtaining the $225 revolving credit facility and
issuance of $260 million of senior subordinated notes.
Provision for Income Taxes
The first quarter 1995 effective income tax rate was
approximately 39%, which reflects the company's current estimated
rate for the year.

</TABLE>
Revenues
First quarter 1995 revenues decreased $4.0 million, or 2.9%,
from the first quarter of 1994. The primary reasons for the
decrease are lower European revenues, particularly gas emission
equipment in Germany, and lower revenues from refrigerant
recycling and recovery equipment. In the first quarter of 1994,
the company had implemented certain sales incentives which pulled
some additional refrigerant recycling and recovery equipment
sales into the quarter. Sales of refrigerant recycling and
recovery equipment should be stronger in the second quarter.
Also negatively impacting sales of engine diagnostic equipment in
the first quarter of 1995 was the effect of market uncertainties
associated with delays in state emission testing programs. Sales
of engine diagnostic and gas emission testing equipment are
closely related.
The above reasons for the decreased revenue levels were
mitigated by continued strength in the base specialty service
tool sales including electronic and mechanical program tools and
dealer equipment. Additionally, sales of hydraulic tools
continue to be strong and are up significantly over last year.
General economic and market conditions continue to be
favorable and the company expects revenues to be strong for the
balance of the year.
<PAGE> 9
Gross Profit
First quarter 1995 gross profit as a percentage of revenues
("gross margin") of 31.6% was lower than the 32.8% gross margin
in 1994. The decrease in the gross margin was primarily a result
of product mix. First quarter 1995 sales of electronic service
tools consisted of a greater percentage of purchased product
which carry a lower gross margins than manufactured product. In
addition, refrigerant recycling and recovery equipment sales,
which have higher gross margins, were lower in the first quarter
of 1995.
Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A")
First quarter 1995 SG&A expense was $38.3 million, or 28.2%
of revenues, compared to $38.7 million, or 27.7% of revenues, in
1994. 1995 SG&A compares favorably to 1994 after noting that
1995 research and development costs in 1995 exceeded 1994 by $1.3
million and that 1995 SG&A included a $1.1 million charge for
downsizing severance costs at the Automotive Diagnostics
division. The additional $1.3 million in R&D spending was
attributable to development of the newer gas emissions testing
products and hand-held diagnostic equipment which are planned to
be sold over the balance of the year. The downsizing at
Automotive Diagnostics involving approximately 140 people,
addresses delays in the state vehicle emissions testing programs
as well as additional cost reductions to improve future
profitability at the unit.
Goodwill/Intangible Amortization
Noncash goodwill and intangible amortization results
primarily from excess purchase price over fair value of assets in
acquisitions.
(Earnings) from equity interests
Represents the equity (earnings) or losses of JATEK, a 50%
owned joint venture in Japan. JATEK's business was very slow in
the first half of 1994 reflecting economic conditions in Japan.
The first quarter reflects the continued improvement in results
that began in the last half of 1994.
Operating Income
1995 first quarter operating income of $3.3 million was
lower than first quarter 1994 operating income of $5.9 million.
Before the effect of the increased research and development
spending and the Automotive Diagnostics' severance charge charge
($2.4 million combined), the reduced revenue levels and
associated lower gross margins were virtually offset by reduced
SG&A expenses.
Capital Expenditures
First quarter 1995 capital expenditures were comparable to
the first quarter of 1994 capital expenditures. The company
continues to invest in manufacturing capability and systems to
better support customers. Full year 1995 capital expenditures
are expected to approximate $8 million.
Identifiable Assets
First quarter 1995 identifiable assets increased
approximately $15 million from year-end 1994. The increase was
predominately accounts receivable and inventories. The increase
in accounts receivable was a result of higher revenues in
February and March of 1995 compared to November and December of
1994. Days sales outstanding in accounts receivable are
approximately 65 to 70 days for the segment. The increase in
inventories was a result of delays in state emissions testing
programs and the normal buildup of inventory to support higher
second quarter business activity.

</TABLE>
Revenues
First quarter 1995 revenues were up $5.6 million, or 4.2%,
over first quarter 1994 revenues. The increase was attributable
to continued increases in solenoid valve sales, higher European
revenues principally resulting from the translation effect of the
weaker U.S. dollar, and increased die-casting metal costs passed
on to customers. The increased die-casting metal prices are tied
to the market prices for the metal and do not effect
profitability as the company's cost rises by the same amount.
The first quarter revenues were reduced by the temporary loss of
hydraulic valve train business with a major customer and the by
loss of sales associated with the January sale of the company's
export aftermarket distribution business.
The domestic original equipment automotive and light truck
market and the automotive aftermarket continued to be strong,
which contributed to the continuing strong overall revenue level.
Europe's automotive industry continues to improve. The company
expects overall revenues to continue at relatively high levels
for the balance of 1995.
Gross Profit
First quarter 1995 gross margin of 11.2% compares to the
first quarter 1994 gross margin of 14.0%. Several factors
contributed to this decrease as follows:
The previously mentioned metal cost and pricing pass through
to customers reduced gross margins as the increase in revenues
equals the increase in costs.
During the quarter, the company purchased approximately $6
million of inventory from an aftermarket customer and began to
package this inventory for the customer. The inventory is
anticipated to be resold over the next twelve months at normal
margins. A $1.2 million charge was taken to record this
inventory at the company's standard inventory cost.
SP Europe recorded approximately $.8 million in severance
charges and incurred additional costs associated with the ongoing
process to achieve profitability.
<PAGE> 11
The die-casting facilities incurred incremental costs
associated with product change over at one its manufacturing
facilities.
Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A")
SG&A as a percentage of revenues decreased to $7.7 million,
or 5.5% of revenues, in the first quarter of 1995 compared to
$7.8 million, or 5.8% of revenues, in 1994. This reflects the
segment's continuing cost containment efforts as the dollar
amounts of SG&A in the comparative quarters are essentially the
same.
Goodwill/Intangible Amortization
Goodwill and intangible amortization was a result of the
excess purchase price over the fair value of assets recorded upon
the acquisition of 51% of SPT at the end of 1993. First quarter
1994 goodwill and intangible amortization is lower than the first
quarter of 1995 as the company was recording income related to
negative goodwill associated with SP Europe. This reversal of
negative goodwill was completed at the end of the second quarter
of 1994. The first quarter 1995 expense was comparable with the
third and fourth quarters of 1994.
Minority interest (income)
This reflects the 30% partner's minority interest in the
results of SP Europe. SP Europe continued to incur significant
losses in the first quarter of 1995. The company continues to
reconfigure SP Europe's operations in order to achieve
profitability. The first quarter of 1995 results of SP Europe
includes a $.8 million severance charge and additional costs
necessary to change processes to accomplish profitability.
(Earnings) from equity interests
Earnings from equity interests include the company's share
of earnings or losses in RSV, Promec, IBS Filtran and Allied Ring
Corporation ("ARC"). The increase in first quarter 1995 earnings
from equity interests over the first quarter of 1994 was due to
continued profitability at Promec and improved profitability at
IBS Filtran and ARC. RSV's losses also decreased from the first
quarter of 1994 as this unit continues through its development
phase.
Operating Income
First quarter 1995 operating income was $9.0 million
compared to $11.6 million in the first quarter of 1994. The $2.6
million decrease includes the $1.2 million charge associated with
the inventory purchase from the aftermarket customer and the $.8
million of severance costs recorded at SP Europe. The balance of
the reduction in operating profit was attributable to the die-
casting product changeovers and incremental process costs
incurred at SP Europe.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures in the first quarter of 1995 were $10.8
million and $6.0 million in the first quarter of 1994.
Significant capital improvements were in process during late 1994
and carried over into the first quarter of 1995. These projects
include an additional solenoid valve assembly line, additional
die-casting capacity for high strength heat treated aluminum die-
castings for air bag steering columns and additional automated
cylinder sleeve casting and machining capacity to meet the demand
for aluminum block engine liners. Capital expenditures for 1995
are expected to approximate $22 million, and as such, will be
significantly lower in each of the remaining quarters of the
year.
<PAGE> 12
Identifiable Assets
Identifiable assets increased approximately $20 million from
year-end 1994. The increase was attributable to higher inventory
($7.2 million), higher accounts receivable ($7.3 million), and
the significant capital expenditures for the quarter. The higher
inventory was attributable to anticipated second quarter demand
as well as the purchase of inventory from an aftermarket customer
for packaging to be performed by the company in the future. The
higher accounts receivable are due to higher revenue activity in
the first quarter compared to the fourth quarter of 1994. As the
normal cycle of business activity subsides later in the year, the
accounts receivable and inventory levels should decrease.

</TABLE>
SPX Credit Corporation provides leasing alternatives to
customers purchasing higher dollar electronic diagnostic, gas
emissions and wheel service equipment. Revenues, which
represents lease financing income, are down from the first
quarter 1994 principally as the size of the lease portfolio has
decreased. Operating income, which does not include any interest
expense, decreased from the first quarter of 1994 due to higher
costs associated with repossessed leases in 1995 than in 1994.
Factors That May Affect Future Results
Impact of the Clean Air Act and Other Environmental Regulations -
During the first quarter of 1995, many delays by states in
implementing Federally mandated emissions testing programs
occurred. These delays or modifications in the state programs
reduced the company's expected revenues from gas emissions
equipment in the first quarter of 1995. While uncertainties
still exist as to when the states will proceed with these
emissions testing programs, the company believes that the states
will begin implementation within the next few quarters. At that
time, the company should share in a significant portion of this
substantial market.
Equity Offering - During April of 1995, the company announced its
intention to file a Shelf Registration Statement with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission to offer additional equity
when the company believes that market conditions are appropriate.
Should the equity offering occur, it is intended that the
proceeds from the offering would be used to reduce the company's
debt. At this time, no date, number of shares or targeted share
price has been established for such action.
<PAGE> 13
Sale of SPX Credit Corporation - In April, the company announced
its intention to sell SPX Credit Corporation. This sale is
anticipated to occur before year-end 1995. Currently, the
company is negotiating with potential buyers and does not know
with certainty the selling price of this business. Preliminary
assessment of market conditions indicate that the sales price
should be at least the company's carrying value of this business.
Proceeds from the sale will be used to reduce the company's debt.
SP Europe - The company's 30% partner in SP Europe is currently
studying its future participation in the business and has
informed the company that its extent of participation will be
decided by the third quarter of 1995. Should the partner choose
to limit its participation, the company could be required to
recognize a portion of losses previously attributed to the
partner. These losses are currently included as "Minority
Interest" in the equity section of the consolidated balance
sheets.
Liquidity and Financial Condition
The company's liquidity needs arise primarily from capital
investment in new equipment, funding working capital requirements
and to meet interest costs.
As a result of the company's acquisition activity in 1993,
the company is highly leveraged. This financial leverage
requires management to focus on cash flows to meet higher
interest costs and to maintain dividends. Management believes
that operations and the borrowing arrangements established in
1994 will be sufficient to supply the 1995 funds needed by the
company.
Cash Flow

Investing activities..... (14.0) (49.3)
Financing activities..... 0.1 (58.8)
Net Cash Flow........... $ 4.4 $ (102.9)
</TABLE>
Cash flow from operating activities in the first quarter of
1995, $18.3 million compares favorably with the first quarter of
1994, $5.2 million. The first quarter 1995 cash flow from
operating activities reflects the seasonal increase in working
capital, offset by a $9.7 million tax refund received. The
increases in accounts receivable and inventory tend to be high
during the first quarter due to increased business activity.
Cash flow from investing activities during the first quarter
of 1995 represents the significant capital expenditures, $14
million, to expand production capacity, particularly within the
Original Equipment Components segment. Capital expenditures will
be lower during the remaining quarters of 1995 and should
approximate $30 million for the year. During the first quarter
of 1994, the company paid Riken Corporation $39 million for the
1993 acquisition of 49% of SPT.
Cash flow from financing activities during the first quarter
of 1995 reflects the company's quarterly dividend payment and
modest borrowings. During the first quarter of 1994, cash flow
from financing activities included the payment of approximately
$10 million of fees related to the debt refinancing and, with
available cash, debt was paid down approximately $48 million.

</TABLE>
(a) Decreased by $16.4 million of facility letters of credit
outstanding at March 31, 1995 which reduce the unused credit
availability.
The company is required to maintain compliance with
restrictive covenants contained in the revolving credit agreement
and the senior subordinated note indenture. Under the most
restrictive of these covenants, the company is required to:
Maintain a leverage ratio, as defined, of 78% or less. The
leverage ratio at March 31, 1995 was 74%.
Maintain an interest expense coverage ratio, as defined, of
2.5:1 or greater. The interest expense coverage ratio at March
31, 1995 was 2.4:1 (see below).
Maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined, of
1.75:1 or greater. The company's fixed charge coverage ratio at
March 31, 1995 was 1.83:1.
Limit dividends to $8 million for the five quarters starting
with the first quarter of 1994, and 10% of operating income plus
depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) thereafter. Dividends for
the five quarters ending March 31, 1995 were $6.4 million.
At March 31, 1995, the company was not in compliance with
the interest expense coverage ratio covenant of the revolving
credit agreement. The company has obtained a waiver for this
condition and other minor technical defaults from the syndicate
of banks which provide the revolving credit facility.
Additionally, the company obtained an amendment to the revolving
credit agreement to adjust the interest expense coverage ratio
covenant from 2.5:1 to 2.25:1 at June 30, 1995 and September 30,
1995. With the exception of the above, the company was in
compliance with all covenants contained in the revolving credit
agreement and the senior subordinated note indenture at March 31,
1995.
<PAGE> 15
The company has also obtained amendments to the revolving
credit agreement which; (a) allow use of the proceeds from an equity
offering to reduce senior subordinated notes in excess of the original
limitation of $25 million, and, (b) allow the company to reduce senior
subordinated notes by an additional $25 million. A further amendment
to the revolving credit agreement to allow use of the proceeds from the
sale of SPX Credit Corporation to reduce the senior subordinated notes
requires approval of 100% of the participating banks is pending.
Resolution of this matter is expected in the second quarter.
Management believes that the unused credit availability on
the revolving credit facility is sufficient to meet operational
cash requirements, working capital requirements and capital
expenditures for 1995. Aggregate future maturities of total debt
are not material for 1995 through 1998. In 1999, the revolving
credit agreement expires and borrowings on the revolver would
become due, however, management believes that the revolving
credit agreement would likely be extended or that alternate
financing will be available to the company.
