Control Technologies Inc. in May 1997. The Company was incorporated in Delaware
on June 1, 1988 and is a holding company which conducts its operations through
its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Pneumo Abex Corporation ("Pneumo Abex").
As a result of the sale of the Company's aerospace business in 1996,

On November 25, 1996, the Company acquired (the "Flavors Acquisition")

("Flavors"), the direct parent of Mafco Worldwide Corporation ("Mafco
Worldwide"). Subsequently, Mafco Worldwide merged into Pneumo Abex.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(IN MILLIONS)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
GENERAL
As a result of the sale of the Company's aerospace business in 1996,
the Company has classified those operations as discontinued in the condensed
consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the results of operations below
do not reflect the sales, cost of sales or selling, general and administrative
("SG&A") expenses from the discontinued aerospace business for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 1996.
The discussion of historical results reflects the results of
operations of Flavors' licorice extract and other flavoring agents' business
since November 25, 1996, the date of the Flavors Acquisition. The historical
results of operations data presented below reflects the application of the
purchase method of accounting for the Flavors Acquisition based on the purchase
price allocation.
Certain results of operations data of Flavors prior to the Flavors
Acquisition, which exclude purchase accounting adjustments, are also presented
below for comparative purposes.
Three months ended June 29, 1997 compared to the three months ended June 30,
1996
Net sales were $24.3 in the second quarter of 1997. Net sales of
Flavors, prior to the Flavors Acquisition, were $26.6 in the second quarter of
1996. The decrease of $2.3 was due to lower sales of non licorice flavors and a
shift in the timing of licorice flavor sales between the first and second
quarters as compared to the year ago period.
Cost of sales were $12.6 in the second quarter of 1997. Cost of sales
of Flavors in the second quarter of 1996, prior to the Flavors Acquisition, was
$14.3. The decrease was due to the lower sales volume and lower raw material
costs. As a percentage of net sales, the Company's cost of sales was 51.9% in
1997 and Flavors' cost of sales, prior to the Flavors Acquisition, was 53.8% in
1996. This decrease was due to the lower raw material costs in 1997.
SG&A expenses were $2.4 in the second quarter of 1997. The 1997
expenses reflect SG&A expenses of the business of Flavors and ongoing corporate
costs, partially offset by income recognized on the Company's overfunded
pension plan. SG&A expenses of the Company in 1996 reflect income recognized on
the Company's overfunded pension plan partially offset by ongoing corporate
costs.
Interest expense, net was $1.8 in the second quarter of 1997 which
primarily relates to the debt assumed in connection with the Flavors
Acquisition. Interest income of $2.2 in 1996 primarily reflects interest income
on the cash proceeds received from the Aerospace Sale.
The provision for income taxes as a percentage of earnings before
income taxes was 13.8% in 1997. The tax provision in the second quarter of 1997
reflects a benefit of approximately 25% of
6

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(IN MILLIONS)
income from continuing operations before taxes relating primarily to net
deferred tax assets which have been recorded by way of a reduction in the
valuation allowance. The net deferred tax assets recorded represent a portion
of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards expected to be utilized.
Based upon the historical results of Flavors projected for a period which takes
into consideration the current operating environment in the tobacco industry,
the Company believes that it is more likely than not that it will be able to
utilize these benefits.
Six month period ended June 29, 1997 compared with the six month period ended
June 30, 1996
Net sales were $51.5 for the six months ended June 29, 1997. Net sales
of Flavors prior to the Flavors Acquisition, were $52.7 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996. The decrease of $1.2 was due to lower sales of non
licorice flavors partially offset by slightly higher licorice sales.
Cost of sales were $28.3 for the six months ended June 29, 1997. Cost
of sales of Flavors in the six month period ended June 30, 1996, prior to the
Flavors Acquisition, was $29.4. The decrease was primarily due to the lower
sales volume and lower material costs partially offset by purchase price
accounting amortization and depreciation of $1.4 in 1997. As a percentage of
net sales, the Company's cost of sales was 55.0% in 1997 and Flavors' cost of
sales, prior to the Flavors Acquisition, was 55.8% in 1996.
SG&A expenses were $4.8 for the six months ended June 29, 1997. The
1997 expenses reflect SG&A expenses of the business of Flavors and ongoing
corporate costs partially offset by income recognized on the Company's
overfunded pension plan. SG&A expenses of the Company in 1996 reflect income
recognized on the Company's overfunded pension plan partially offset by ongoing
corporate costs.
Interest expense, net was $1.8 in the second quarter of 1997 which
primarily relates to the debt assumed in connection with the Flavors
Acquisition. Interest income of $2.2 in 1996 primarily reflects interest income
on the cash proceeds received from the Aerospace Sale.
The provision for income taxes as a percentage of earnings before
income taxes was 13.3% in 1997. The tax provision for the six months ended June
29, 1997 reflects a benefit of approximately 26% of income from continuing
operations before taxes relating primarily to net deferred tax assets which
have been recorded by way of a reduction in the valuation allowance. The net
deferred tax assets recorded represent a portion of the Company's net operating
loss carryforwards expected to be utilized. Based upon the historical results
of Flavors projected for a period which takes into consideration the current
operating environment in the tobacco industry, the Company believes that it is
more likely than not that it will be able to utilize these benefits.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's net cash flows from operating activities were $16.6 and
$2.4 for the six months ended June 29, 1997 and June 30, 1996, respectively.
The increase in cash flow from operating activities primarily reflects
operating cash flows of the Flavors business acquired in November 1996.

M & F WORLDWIDE CORP.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(IN MILLIONS)
The Company's working capital requirements, especially for accounts receivable
and inventory, are affected by customer demand, by current and prospective
supplies of raw materials and raw material prices. Management believes the
current inventory of $43.6 is adequate to meet customer requirements. Inventory
levels may fluctuate in the future as the Company takes advantage of
opportunities to purchase quality raw materials at favorable prices while
maintaining its policy of purchasing licorice root from all available sources
to maintain relationships with its suppliers. Capital expenditures for the six
month period ended June 29, 1997 were $1.1.
Under the Senior Credit agreement as amended, Pneumo Abex may borrow
up to $12.5 under a revolving credit facility. At June 29, 1997, there were no
borrowings under the facility and approximately $4.2 of this facility had been
reserved to support lender guarantees for outstanding letters of credit.
Management believes the remaining availability of approximately $8.3 under
Pneumo Abex's revolving credit facility, cash on hand and cash flow from
operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital, capital
expenditure and debt service needs through the end of 1997. The Company's
French subsidiary has an agreement with a local bank whereby it may borrow up
to six million French francs (approximately $1.0) for working capital. At June
30, 1997, approximately $0.4 was outstanding. The Company anticipates that it
will call the 11 7/8 Senior Subordinated Notes due 2002 for redemption on
November 15, 1997, the first call date.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS No. 128"), "Earnings
Per Share", which established new standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 will be effective for interim and annual
financial statements after December 15, 1997. The Company believes that the
adoption of SFAS No. 128 will not have a material impact on the Company's
reported earnings per share.
