                Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 1 - General

In July 1993, Talley Manufacturing and Technology, Inc. (the
Company), a wholly owned subsidiary of Talley Industries, Inc.,
("Talley") was formed with the issuance of 1,000 shares of common
stock.  The formation of the Company was in anticipation of an
offering, in October, 1993, of Senior Notes by the Company and
Senior Discount Debentures by Talley.  The Senior Notes are
guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's subsidiaries (the
"Subsidiary Guarantors").  Concurrently with the issuance of these
securities, Talley contributed the capital stock of its operating
subsidiaries (other than its real estate subsidiaries) to the
Company, which also assumed a substantial portion of Talley's
indebtedness and liabilities.  At the same time, the Company
entered into a new credit facility with certain institutional
lenders which is also guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors.  The
net proceeds from the Senior Notes, the Senior Discount Debentures
and the new credit facility were used to repay substantially all of
the indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the
indebtedness assumed from Talley, and substantially all of the
indebtedness remaining with Talley.

Upon completion of the reorganization of entities under the common
control of Talley described above and the new financing, the
Company is a holding company which owns all of the capital stock of
the operating subsidiaries of Talley (other than the real estate
subsidiaries).  Accordingly, all corporate costs, assets and
liabilities are included in the Company's financial statements and
interest expense includes the interest on indebtedness of the
operating subsidiaries and all indebtedness assumed by the Company
in connection with the reorganization.  In connection with the
reorganization, Talley and the Company entered into a tax sharing
agreement and a cost sharing agreement which require the Company to
reimburse Talley for certain ongoing general and administrative
expenses which will be incurred by Talley and to make certain tax
payments to Talley.

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared using
the historical amounts included in the consolidated financial
statements of Talley and its subsidiaries, giving effect to the
reorganization described above.  Although the Subsidiary Guarantors
guaranteed the Senior Notes, separate financial statements of the
Subsidiary Guarantors are not included because the Subsidiary
Guarantors are jointly and severally liable with the Company under
the Senior Notes, the aggregate assets, liabilities, earnings and
equity of the Subsidiary Guarantors are substantially equivalent to
the assets, liabilities, earnings and equity of the Company on a
consolidated basis,  and separate financial statements  and other 






                                    -5-
                                   
<PAGE>

disclosures concerning the Subsidiary Guarantors would not be
material to investors.  In addition, with the exception of the net
assets of the real estate operations and certain debt and related
interest expense, the consolidated financial statements of Talley
are substantially identical to those of the Company.

Although the financial statements of the Company separately report
its assets, liabilities (including contingent liabilities) and
stockholder's equity, legal title to such assets and legal
responsibility for such liabilities was not affected by such
attribution during periods prior to the reorganization. 
Accordingly, the Talley consolidated financial statements and
related notes should be read in connection with these financial
statements.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the financial position as of March 31, 1995 and December 31,
1994 and the results of operations for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, and cash flows and changes in
stockholder's equity for the three-month periods ended March 31,
1995 and 1994.  Such results, however, may not be indicative of the
results for the full year.

Note 3 - Earnings Per Share

Talley Manufacturing and Technology, Inc. is a wholly owned

Note 4 - Income Taxes

In September 1994, the Arizona Court of Appeals reversed a 1992
Arizona Tax Court ruling that entitled the Company to file a
combined tax return in the State of Arizona for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 1983, and in April 1995, the Supreme Court of the 






                                    -6-
<PAGE>

State of Arizona denied the Company's Petition for Review.  Based
on the appellate court decision, the Company  will  be liable for 
approximately $1.1 million in taxes and interest for 1983.  The
Company believes the appellate court erred in its decision and the
Company intends to vigorously litigate tax and interest assessments
for 1984 and 1985, of $5.3 million.  Legislation adopted in 1994 in
Arizona specifically allows companies to file combined tax returns
in Arizona for periods from January 1, 1986, and on December 8,
1994 the Arizona Department of Revenue withdrew its assessments
against the Company for 1986 and subsequent years.  Management
believes that the final resolution of the above matter will not
result in a material adverse impact on the results of operations or
financial position of the Company.


Note 5 - Acquisition

In July 1994, a subsidiary of the Company acquired certain assets
of a manufacturer of metal buttons.  The purchase price was
approximately $5.7 million, including cash of $2.1 million, 323,232
shares of Talley Common stock scheduled for issuance two years
after closing and certain liabilities assumed and acquisition costs
incurred.


Note 6 - Depreciation of Plant and Equipment

During the first quarter of 1995, the Company completed a review of
the fixed asset lives at its stainless steel production facility. 
The Company determined that as a result of actions taken to
increase its preventative maintenance and programs initiated with
its suppliers to increase the quality of their products, actual
lives for certain asset categories were generally longer than the
useful lives used for depreciation purposes.  Therefore, the
Company extended the estimated useful lives of certain categories
of plant and equipment at its stainless steel production facility,
effective January 1, 1995.  The effect of this change in estimate
reduced depreciation expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1995
by approximately $354,000 and accordingly increased earnings before
income taxes and extraordinary gain by the same amount.

The following table summarizes the Company's consolidated revenue
and earnings (loss), by segment for the periods shown:

OPERATING INCOME:

    Government Products and Services         $ 1,288    $ 4,186
    Airbag Royalty                             6,276      3,896

      Earnings (loss) before income taxes    $ 7,613    $(1,371)

 
 Revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 1995
 increased $12.5 million from $75.1 million to $87.6 million,
 compared with the corresponding period in the prior year.  The 
 increase in the three-month comparison is primarily the result of
 increasing revenue in the Airbag Royalties segment, a result of
 the expanding demand for automotive airbags, and the Steel
 Operations, the result of continued improvement in the stainless
 steel market.  These increases were partially offset by
 decreasing revenue in the Government Products and Services
 segment.  The pretax earnings for the three months ended March
 31, 1995 was  $7.6 million compared with $1.4 million pretax loss
 in the first three months of the previous year.  The loss in the
 first quarter of 1994 includes a $4.0 million provision for
 litigation costs related to resolution of claims in connection
 with the airbag royalties being received from the licensee.  Net
 income was $4.5 million for the first quarter of 1995, compared
 with $2.6 million net income for the first quarter of 1994 which
 included a tax benefit of $5.6 million, pursuant to a retroactive
 change in tax laws in the State of Arizona.

<PAGE>

 Earnings from both the Airbag Royalty segment and the Industrial
 Products segment improved compared with the prior year. 
 Royalties in the Airbag Royalty segment increased by $2.4 
 million from $3.9 million in the first three months of 1994 to
 $6.3 million for the first three months of 1995, while earnings
 from the Industrial segment and Specialty Products segment
 improved $5.6 million and $.2 million, respectively.  Earnings
 from the Government Products and Services segment for the first
 three months of 1995, when compared with the first three months
 of 1994, were $2.9 million lower.  
 
 The gross profit percentage, excluding airbag royalties, of
 23.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was down from
 the gross profit percentage of 24.8% for the comparable period in
 1994.  The decrease from the prior year is due to the change in
 the mix of government contracts and revenues from other
 operations.
 
   Government Products and Services.  Revenue and earnings in the
 first quarter of 1995 decreased $5.4 million and $2.9 million,
 respectively, when compared with the same period in the prior
 year. These decreases are primarily due to a scheduled pricing
 reduction under the extended range munitions program, and also
 due to the timing of completion and shipments under other
 contracts.  
 
   Airbag Royalties.  Revenue from airbag royalties increased from
 $3.9 million in the first three months of 1994 to $6.3 million in
 the first three months of 1995.  This increased royalty is
 primarily the result of increasing airbag implementation rates,
 both in terms of the number of vehicles containing airbags and
 the number of airbags installed in a given vehicle.  (Also see
 "Other Matters" as a separate caption within Management's
 Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
 Operations)
  
   Industrial Products.  In the first three months of 1995
 Industrial Products sales and earnings increased $14.2 million
 and $5.6 million, respectively, when compared with the first
 three months of 1994.  Increases in sales resulted from increased
 orders and higher selling prices for stainless steel bars and
 rods and increased demand for ceramic insulator products along
 with an increase in market share.  These increases partially were
 offset by lower welder products sales and earnings.
 
   Specialty Products.  During the first three months of 1995,
 sales for the Specialty Products segment increased 22%, from $5.8 
 million to $7.1 million, while earnings increased from $.6
 million to $.8 million, when compared with the same period in
 1994.  The increase in sales and earnings when compared with the
 prior year is primarily a result of the acquisition of a
 manufacturer of metal buttons in July 1994.

<PAGE>
  
   Other.  Interest expense in the first three months of 1995
 increased slightly to $4.3 million, from $4.2 million in the
 comparable period in 1994.  Corporate overhead decreased from
 $6.6 million to $2.8 million over the comparable period in 1994
 due to a $4 million provision in the prior year for litigation
 costs related to resolution of claims in connection with airbag
 royalties being received from the licensee.  The income tax
 provision for the first three months of 1995 was $3.1 million
 compared to a tax benefit of $4 million in the comparable period
 in 1994.  The net income tax benefit in 1994 is the result of 
 favorable state tax legislation which resulted in a $5.6 million
 reversal of state income taxes previously accrued.   
 
 
 Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
 At March 31, 1995, the Company had $2 million in cash and cash
 equivalents and net working capital of $82.9 million.  Cash used
 in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 1995
 was $2.8 million.  Cash generated from operations during the
 first three months of 1994 was $8.5 million, due primarily to
 decreases in receivables and increases in accrued expenses.  Cash
 used for investing activities during the three months ended March
 31, 1995 was $1.2 million for capital expenditures.  Cash flow
 from financing activities of $3.3 million reflects an increase in
 investment from parent company and increase in proceeds from the
 revolving credit facilities.
 
 The Company along with its parent, Talley, in October 1993,
 completed a major refinancing program.  This refinancing program
 included an offering of $185 million of debt securities,
 consisting of $70 million gross proceeds of senior discount
 debentures due 2005, issued by Talley to yield 12.25% and $115
 million of senior notes due 2003, with an interest rate of 10.75%
 issued by the Company, which was newly formed to hold the stock
 of all the operating subsidiaries of Talley (except for the
 subsidiaries holding Talley's real estate operations).  In
 connection with this refinancing, the Company obtained a secured
 credit facility with institutional lenders, of which
 approximately $48 million was initially borrowed in connection
 with the refinancing discussed above.  
 
 Borrowings under the secured  credit facility may not exceed the
 collateral base as defined in the governing credit agreement. 
 The facility consists of a five-year revolving credit facility of
 up to $40 million and a five-year $20 million term loan facility. 
 At March 31, 1995 availability under the facility, based
 primarily on inventory and receivable levels, was $38.6 million,
 of which $29.7 million was borrowed.  Upon the occurrence of
 certain specified events, at any time following the third
 anniversary of the secured credit facility, the agent thereunder
 may elect to terminate the facility.

 The Company anticipates that the present capital structure will
 support the long-term growth of its core businesses and permit
 the implementation of its strategy to use the portion of airbag
 royalties retained by the Company (after certain permitted
 distributions to Talley) and other available cash flow to reduce
 its total indebtedness.
 
 The Company is permitted (and intends) to distribute cash to its
 parent, Talley, for specified purposes and under certain other
 circumstances.  These distributions will be made using funds
 available from operations and the secured credit facility.  The
 payments include (but are not limited to) certain airbag
 royalties in excess of $10 million in any year (or in excess of
 such greater amount as would be required for the Company to meet
 a specified fixed charge coverage ratio) which will be used to
 redeem the Senior Discount Debentures issued by Talley and an
 annual distribution of up to $1.3 million for a period of five
 years to fund certain  carrying and other costs associated with
 Talley's real estate operations.  In addition, the Company is a
 party to a cost sharing agreement and a tax sharing agreement
 which will require the Company to reimburse Talley for certain
 ongoing general and administrative expenses and to make certain
 tax payments to Talley.
 
 The Company believes that the combination of cash flow from
 operations, funds available under the credit facility described
 above (or any successor facility) and increasing revenue from
 airbag royalties (to the extent retained by the Company as
 described above) will provide sufficient liquidity to meet its
 working capital, debt service and other capital requirements and
 to meet its other ongoing business needs over the next five
 years.
 
 
 Other Matters
 
 As more fully explained in the Commitments and Contingencies note
 to the December 31, 1994 Consolidated Financial Statements,
 litigation between the Company and TRW, Inc. (TRW), the buyer of
 the Company's airbag business and licensee of the Company's 
 technology related thereto, has been pending since 1989.  In mid-
 February 1994 TRW filed a new declaratory judgment action
 asserting claims already made in the existing action and further
 claiming  the  Company, through the actions of a subsidiary,
 breached a non-compete provision of the Asset Purchase Agreement
 by rendering services to competitors of TRW, and requesting among
 other things a court order that a contemporaneous notice and a
 $26.5 million one-time payment that TRW sent to the Company was
 valid, entitling it to terminate that airbag royalty and obtain 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
                                   -11- 

<PAGE>

 a paid up license to use the Company's airbag technology.  On
 March 1, the Company answered TRW's complaint and also filed
 counterclaims alleging that TRW had wrongfully terminated the
 license agreement, had intentionally interfered with the
 Company's business relationships and had failed to exert
 reasonable efforts to exploit the exclusive license granted to
 TRW by the Company.
 
 On March 14, 1994 the Company filed a Motion for an Order
 requiring TRW to make payment of all quarterly royalties until
 the lawsuit is finally resolved.  The Company sought the Order to
 avoid the potential harm from cash flow interruption and/or
 potential loan covenant defaults caused by TRW's failure to pay
 scheduled royalty payments.  A three day hearing on the Company's
 Motion was completed on May 3, 1994 and on May 19, 1994 the Court
 granted the Company's motion for a preliminary injunction.  The
 Court ordered TRW to continue paying royalties to the Company
 pending conclusion of the lawsuit.  On August 24, 1994 the Court
 refused TRW's motion to suspend the injunction.  A trial of
 certain of the claims in the matter is presently in process. 
 While it is not possible to predict the outcome of litigation,
 the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to TRW's
 claims and that it will ultimately prevail.  Therefore,
 management anticipates that the above-described action will be
 resolved without any material adverse impact on the results of
 operations, liquidity or financial position of the Company.
 
 As previously reported, a subsidiary of the Company is conducting
 an investigation of alleged groundwater contamination at a
 facility in Athens, Georgia, in cooperation with the current
 owner of the site.  The site was owned by the subsidiary until
 March 1988.  No lawsuit has been filed in this matter, but the
 Georgia Environmental Protection Division listed the site on its
 Hazardous Site Inventory in March, 1995.  Based on remediation
 estimates received, management believes that any reasonably
 anticipated losses from the alleged contamination will not result
 in a material adverse impact on the results of operations or the
 financial position of the Company.

 approximately $1.1 million in taxes and interest for 1983.  The
 Company believes the appellate court erred in its decision and
 the Company intends to vigorously litigate tax and interest
 assessments for 1984 and 1985, of $5.3 million.  Legislation
 adopted in 1994 in Arizona specifically allows companies to file
 combined tax returns in Arizona for periods from January 1, 1986,
 and on December 8, 1994 the Arizona Department of Revenue
 withdrew its assessments against the Company for 1986 and
 subsequent years.  Management believes that the final resolution
 of the above matter will not result in a material adverse impact
 on the results of operations or financial position of the
 Company.
