  The Company has a $6 million revolving credit agreement subject to eligible
  working capital as defined, which expires January 1, 1996.  As of March 31,
  1995 the Company had $3.4 million outstanding under this agreement.  In
  addition, the Company has a $1.15 million credit capacity which is used for
  an irrevocable letter of credit which secured the $1 million loan from an
  Irish bank due October 31, 1995.  A commitment fee of 3/8% is incurred on the
  remaining unused balance.  Interest is at the base rate plus 1/4% and is
  payable quarterly.  The average balance outstanding against the remaining
  capacity was $3.5 million and $0.1 million during the six month period of
  1995 and 1994, respectively.

  The Company also has a term loan agreement.  Interest is at the base rate
  plus 1/2%.  Repayment terms are twenty quarterly installments of $150,000,
  plus interest.  The Company has available an additional $2,000,000 which can
  be drawn down prior to September 30, 1995.  The repayment terms for the
  additional amount are interest only the first year, followed by sixteen
  quarterly payments of principal plus interest.

  The Industrial Development bond interest rate is reset weekly, based on
  prevailing tax-exempt money market rates, and is payable quarterly.
  Principal is payable in quarterly installments of $75,000 through May 1,
  1996, becoming $100,000 quarterly thereafter, with the final balance due on
  May 1, 2002.  The bonds are secured by the property and equipment of the
  facility, and backed by an irrevocable bank letter of credit which expires on
  May 1, 1996.

  The revolving credit, term loan and Industrial Development bonds are secured
  by the Company's domestic accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.

  Among other covenants, the Company is required to maintain a minimum tangible
  net worth (as defined) of $19.8 million, increasing by 50% of net income
  subsequent to September 30, 1993, excluding the $1.5 million reversal to
  income of the restructuring reserve that occurred in the second quarter of
  1995.  At March 31, 1995, tangible net worth exceeded the required minimum by
  $2.0 million.

  As part of the acquisition of Selectrons, Ltd., the seller provided financing
  in the form of unsecured installment notes.  These notes bear interest at the
  base rate plus 1/2%, payable and adjustable quarterly.  Principal is payable
  in annual installments of approximately $1 million, commencing July 1, 1993.

  The $1 million note payable revolving to the bank has a variable interest
  rate based on a combination of both LIBOR and DIBOR (Dublin Interbank Rates)
  rates.

(3)      Income Taxes:
         -------------

  The provision for taxes on income, which is based on the anticipated
  effective rate for the year, does not bear the customary relationship to
  pre-tax income due primarily to foreign source income.  Income tax expense
  differs from amounts currently payable due to certain items reported for
  financial statement purposes in periods which differ from those in which they
  are reported for tax purposes, principally accelerated depreciation.


(4)      Deferred Federal Income Taxes:
         ------------------------------

  The Company has deferred to future periods the income taxes relating to
  timing differences between financial statement pre-tax income and taxable
  income.





                                       6
<PAGE>   8
(5)      Depreciation:
         -------------

  For financial reporting purposes, the Company provides for depreciation of
  plant and equipment, principally by the straight-line method, at annual rates
  sufficient to amortize the cost over its estimated useful life.  For tax
  purposes, the Company uses various accelerated methods and, accordingly,
  provides for the related deferred taxes.  The principal rates of depreciation
  for financial reporting purposes are: buildings 2% to 5%, and machinery and
  equipment 5% to 33 1/3%.


(6)      Inventories:
         ------------

  The Company follows the LIFO method of accounting for certain of its Forge
  Group inventories. Since the LIFO inventory determination for fiscal 1995
  will be based upon year-end inventory levels and costs, the Company has
  provided for its anticipated "LIFO Adjustment" based on its estimated
  year-end inventory levels and costs.  Under the Average Cost Method,
  inventories would have been $3,358,000 and $3,378,000 higher than reported at
  March 31, 1995 and September 30, 1994, respectively.


(7)      Postretirement Health Care Benefits:
         ------------------------------------

  The Company and its domestic subsidiaries provide certain health care
  benefits for non-union retired employees which are subject to the provisions
  of SFAS 106.  The Company amended its current plan to freeze the Company's
  contribution to insurance premiums and exclude any active employees who
  retire after December 31, 1993 from eligibility for benefits.  As a result of
  the amendments to the plan, the adoption of SFAS 106 did not have a material
  impact on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.


(8)      Other Income
         ------------

  Other income is comprised primarily of grant income from Irish government
  agencies, foreign exchange gains and losses, and royalty and fee income.

(9)      Acquisition of Business and Non-Competition Agreement
         -----------------------------------------------------

  On June 17, 1992, the Company acquired certain domestic net assets and the
  foreign subsidiaries of Selectrons, Ltd. ("Selectrons") at an aggregate
  purchase cost of approximately $6 million, including the assumption of $1.7
  million of debt previously owed to the shareholders.  The purchase price was
  provided from existing cash balances, a term loan from a bank, and an
  unsecured term loan from the seller.





                                       7
<PAGE>   9
  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.  The results of operations
  of the acquisition were combined with those of the Company commencing July 1,
  1992.  This acquisition is not material to the consolidated totals and its
  results of operations have been included in the accompanying statements of
  income since the acquisition date.

  The fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed was
  approximately $2.6 million.  The excess of purchase price over the fair value
  of the net assets purchases was $3.4 million, and such excess is being
  amortized over 40 years by the straight-line method.

  The Company is pursing legal action against the seller of Selectrons with
  respect to breach of contract.  Any settlement will be treated as a reduction
  of previously recorded goodwill.

(10)     Basis of Presentation:
         ----------------------

  The accompanying financial information for the six months ended March 31,
  1995 has not been examined by independent public accountants.  In the opinion
  of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
  adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION
- -----------------------

  We are extremely pleased to report a profit before tax of $2,004,000 on sales
of $17,374,000 for the second quarter ended March 31, 1995, compared to a loss
before tax of $457,000 on sales of $14,997,000 for the same period a year ago.

  Operating income for the six months ended March 31, 1995 was $895,000 on
sales of $33,371,000, compared to a loss before tax of $204,000 on sales of
$31,412,000 for the same period in 1994.

  Net income for the second quarter was $1,925,000, or $0.38 per share,
compared to a loss of $499,000, or $0.10 per share, for the same period last
year.  Net income for the six months was $2,238,000, or $0.44 per share,
compared to a loss of $316,000, or $0.06 per share in 1994.  Both the second
quarter and the six-month net income include a return of $1,512,000 from an
original reserve of $6,500,000 established in September of 1993 to cover costs
associated with the restructuring of our Forge Group, which was substantially
completed in the second quarter just ended.  There was no tax penalty levied on
the reserve reversal as no tax benefit was taken when the reserve was
established.

  It is worth noting that we achieved an operating income of $403,000 during
the first quarter of the fiscal year, and $492,000 in the second quarter,
demonstrating a positive earning trend so far in fiscal 1995.

  Net sales for the second quarter increased 16% while defense-related sales
increased 46% compared to last year.  Net sales for the six months increased 6%
and defense-related sales went up 13% over a year ago.

  New orders received increased against last year for both the second quarter
and the six months.  New orders for the second quarter improved 36% and 26% for
the six-month period, respectively.

  Our solid sales and earnings improvements were achieved despite continued
pricing competition.  They are positive indicators that the diversity and
quality of our products are earning them preferred status in the markets we
serve.  It is also being demonstrated that the extraordinary efforts of our
divisions to tailor their services to the individual needs of our customers are
generating customer loyalty and appreciation.

  Primary among the restructuring accomplishments of our Forge Group has been
the Group's improvement in operating earnings.  They have achieved
profitability through these first six months of fiscal 1995 compared to losses
through the same period last year.  Forge sales in the second quarter also
experienced a strong resurgence as the Group reached the highest net sales
volume in several years, as well as a solid increase in bookings year-to-date.

  The major elements of the restructuring effort included team-oriented
strategies covering all programs within the plan:  a redesigned marketing
philosophy which focussed on matching best capabilities to specialized market
opportunities; and a streamlining of organizational functions which enhanced
production efficiencies, reducing costs significantly as well as improving
customer service.

  The Turbine Group is now equipped with an LPPS (low pressure plasma system)
which provides the capability to apply the bond base coat prior to the
application of the thermal barrier on Rolls Royce, GE and Pratt & Whitney
engines.

  Approvals have also been received for 1st and 2nd blade repairs on GE's CF6
engines, up to and including the CF6-80C2.

  We are also experiencing strong interest in OEM and repair business for
components of industrial turbines.

a net income of $1.9 million compared to a net loss of $.5 for the same period
a year ago.

  Net income for the second quarter and six months this year benefited $1.5
million from the reversal of the Restructuring Reserve that was established in
September 1993 for the restructuring of the Forge Group.  There was no tax
benefit provided when the reserve was established and therefore no tax penalty
with the reversal of the reserve.

  Income from operations before corporate and interest expense increased to
$1.2 million from $.05 million a year ago.

  Net sales for the six months ended March 31, 1995 increased $2 million to
$33.4 million from $31.4 million a year ago or 6%.  Defense-related sales were

income of $2.2 million compared to a net loss of $.3 million a year ago.

a year ago.  Year-to-date net interest expense was $.4 million compared to $.3
million a year ago.

  New orders received increased against last year for both the second quarter
and for the six months.  New orders for the second quarter were $19.8 million
to last year's $14.6 million and $35.6 million for the current year-to-date
compared to $28.2 million last year.

  SPECIALTY PRODUCTS net sales for the quarter increased $1.4 million to $12.7
million from $11.3 million (8.5%).  Defense-related sales were not significant.
Specialty Products income from operations before corporate and interest expense
increased $.1 million to $1.0 million from $.9 million last year.

  SPECIALTY PRODUCTS net sales for the six months increased $1.5 million to
$24.1 million from $22.6 million (6.6%).  Specialty Products income from
operations before corporate and interest expense increased $.2 million to $2.1
million from $1.9 million.

  FORGING SEGMENT net sales for the quarter were $5.2 million compared to $4.4
million last year.  Defense-related sales were $1.8 million (35%) compared to

  FORGING SEGMENT net sales for the six months were flat at $10.0 million
compared to $9.9 million a year ago.  Defense-related sales were $3.7 million
(37%) compared to $3.3 million (33%) last year.  Forging income from operations

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

  Working capital increased to $11.8 million at March 31, 1995 from $9.7
million at September 30, 1994.  The current ratio was 1.7 at March 31, 1995 and
1.6 at September 30, 1994.  Total debt as a percentage of tangible
shareholders' equity was 49.9% at March 31, 1995 compared to 53.2% at September
30, 1994.  The Company has borrowed $3.4 million against its revolving credit
line and has an additional $2.0 million term loan available.

  Capital expenditures in the first six months amount to $2.4 million compared
to $1.2 million a year ago.

  The Company considers it has adequate financing available to meet its needs 
for the year.

                         PROVISION FOR TAXES ON INCOME
                         -----------------------------

  The provision for taxes on income, which is based on the anticipated
effective rate for the year, does not bear the customary relationship to
pre-tax income, due primarily to foreign source income.
