INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Astro Air, Inc.
P.O. Box 1988
Jacksonville, Texas 75766
Sirs:
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Astro Air, Inc., as of December
31, 1997, and 1996, and the related statements of income, retained earnings, and
cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
al1 material respects, the financial position of Astro Air, Inc. , as of
December 31, 1997, and 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flow
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

ASTRO AIR, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1997, and DECEMBER 31, 1996
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Major Customer and Market Information:
The Company manufactures components, primarily evaporator and condenser coils,
for the air-conditioning industry. Sales are nationwide under the name of ASTRO
AIR, INC. During the years ended December 31, 1997, and 1996, each of three (3)
and three (3) customers accounted for ten percent (10%) or more of sales,
respectively. For 1997, the largest customer accounted for thirty-eight percent
(38%), with the three (3) together accounting for eighty-seven percent (87%).
For 1996, the largest customer accounted for thirty percent (30%), with the
three (3) together accounting for eighty percent (80%).
Astro Air, Inc., is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dacus Properties, Inc.
Accounting Basis and Income Recognition:
The books of the company are kept on the accrual basis. Income is recognized at
the date of invoicing. No allowance for bad debts has been set up. The company
uses the direct write-off method of bad debts,
"Accounts Receivable - Other" reflects advances to key employees who are not
related parties and amounts due from companies outside the normal trade or
business, except for $1,844,838 due from the parent Company for 1997, and
$1,111,934 due from the parent Company for 1996.
Accounts Receivables are pledged with banks to secure notes in the amount of
$1,293,337 for 1997, and $1,158,510 for 1996. These amounts are reflected in the
account "Note Payable -- Factored Accounts Receivable."
Inventories
Raw materials and supplies are recorded at lower of cost or market.
Work-in-process inventory is recorded at material cost plus labor and overhead
based on related historical data. Some components are so highly automated that
labor cost per part is insignificant and is not applied. The effect on
work-in-process cost caused by this deviation is not deemed material to total
work-in-process costing.
Finished goods are costed at sales price less anticipated profit margin.
Inventories are accounted for on the first-in, first-out basis.

------------ ------------
Total $ 2,355,522 $ 2,127,195
============ ============
Intangible Assets:
Goodwill in the amount of $145,186 was recorded as a result of the merger of
Coils, Inc., into Astro Air, Inc., in September 1982. This is being amortized
over a period of twenty-five (25) years using the straight-line method. The
current unamortized balance is $53,086.
Property and Equipment:
Property and Equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated over the estimated
useful life on a straight-line basis. No interest was capitalized on
self-constructed equipment as the amount was not deemed material. Accelerated
depreciation methods are used for income tax purposes. The company has followed
a policy of capitalizing expenditures which materially increase asset lives, and
charging ordinary maintenance and repairs to operations as incurred. All assets
are pledged against debt. Depreciation expense for 1997 was $363,997.
Income Taxes:
For 1997, income tax expense was $500,580. A consolidated tax return is filed
with the Parent Company. After recording deferred taxes of $31,345 for 1997, an
income tax liability of $469,235 remained. Deferred taxes resulted primarily
from timing differences due to book and tax depreciation methods and Section
263A Inventory Costs.

5. ESTIMATES
Preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principals requires that certain estimates be made by management.
6. CASUALTY LOSS
In January of 1997, the corporation suffered a casualty loss from a fire at
Plant Two. The corporation was covered by both casualty insurance on the assets
and business disruption insurance. Loss recovery was predicated on the
replacement value. The proceeds from the insurance company were $466,399 for the
losses to the assets. Of this amount, $327,318 went to the parent company, Dacus
Properties, Inc., who owns the building and the balance went to Astro Air, Inc.,
to replace their assets. Due to the insurance paying on a replacement basis, an
extraordinary gain was shown on the income statement of the corporation
representing the excess of insurance receipts over the book value of assets
damaged or destroyed. Additionally, the corporation received $41,580 due to the
interruption of manufacturing during the repair period.
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to the balance sheet date, management has entered into serious
negotiations relative to the acquistion of the corporation either through an
asset purchase or other financial arrangement.
8. PENSION PLAN
In June of 1997, the company initiated a 401(k) plan for the company's
employees. Full-time employees are eligible after one year of service. The plan
provides for the company to contribute 50% of the first 4% of regular pay for
the year. The cost to the corporation for 1997 was $43,871, of which $5,861 was
administrative expense and the balance contributions on behalf of employee
participants.
9. RECLASSIFICATION
Deferred interest of $48,572 recorded at the end of 1996 was reclassified for
comparability with the adjustment made to this account for 1997.

10. CONTRACT DIRECT LABOR
The corporation uses an employment agency to screen and hire production workers.
After the initial trial period, the employee may be hired or released back to
the employment contractor. As these workers are basically involved in direct
production activities, this cost is separately shown on the income statement as
a direct cost rather than being included in manufacturing overhead. However, it
should be noted in analysis that these agency costs contain fringe benefit and
payroll tax costs normally included in manufacturing overhead, as well as the
contractor's profit.
11. ACCRUED VACATION COST
The corporation has adopted a policy of taking vacation in the period available
or losing it. However, in transition, many employees had vacation accrued prior
to the policy change. Management has elected to accrue this liability and will
discharge it within the time allotted by the Internal Revenue Code for the
inclusion in current year expenses.

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Effective April 26, 1998, Owosso Corporation (the "Company") completed
the sale of substantially all of the assets of its Great Bend Manufacturing
subsidiary ("Great Bend"), a manufacturer of agricultural equipment, to Allied
Products Corporation of Chicago, Illinois (the "Disposition"). The Company
received proceeds from the transaction of approximately $10,000,000, subject to
certain post-closing adjustments.
Also effective April 26, 1998, the Company acquired substantially all
of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Astro Air, Inc., ("Astro Air")
a privately owned Texas corporation that manufactures heat transfer coils, for a
purchase price of $8,000,000 of cash, plus the repayment, shortly after closing,
of approximately $2,700,000 of debt (the "Acquisition"). In connection with the
Acquisition, the Company has entered into an agreement with Dacus Properties,
Inc. ("DPI"), the former owner of Astro Air, under which DPI will receive 3.4%
of the net revenues generated by certain specified customers through April 26,
2003. The Acquisition has been accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting. The purchase price was preliminarily allocated (and any contingent
purchase price payable will be allocated) to the net assets acquired based on
estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. This resulted in excess of
purchase price over assets acquired of approximately $950,000, which is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years.
The following pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations
for the six months ended April 26, 1998 and for the year ended October 26, 1997
give effect to the Disposition and the Acquisition as if the transactions had
occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1997. A pro forma balance sheet has not been
included since the effects of the Disposition and the Acquisition are reflected
in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet included in Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended April 26, 1998 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on June 10, 1998.
The historical financial data of the Company and of Great Bend included
in the pro forma financial statements is as of the periods presented. The
financial data of Astro Air included in the pro forma condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the year ended October 26, 1997 is for the year
ended December 31, 1997 (audited). The financial data of Astro Air included in
the pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months
ended April 26, 1998 has been derived from the interim financial information for
the period November 1, 1997 through April 26, 1998. The pro forma financial data
presented herein is based on management's estimate of the effects of the
Disposition and the Acquisition, based upon currently available information and
certain assumptions the Company believes are reasonable. The Company does not
expect the receipt of additional information to have a material adverse effect
on the pro forma financial information presented herein. The pro forma condensed
consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended April 26, 1998
and the year ended October 26, 1997 are unaudited, but in the opinion of
management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation.
The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
six months ended April 26, 1998 and the year ended October 26, 1997, are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have
been achieved had the transactions described been consummated as of the dates
indicated, or that may be achieved in the future.
