               Management's Analysis of Quarterly Financial Data



Results of Operations:

Overall

         Revenues increased 9% in the third quarter of 1995 to $210.3 million
from $193.4 million in 1994.  The increase was the result of growth in the
Commercial and Medical segments while the Aerospace Segment remained flat.
One-third of the gain was generated internally and the remainder resulted from
several acquisitions made over the last year.  Increases in foreign currency
translation rates had a small favorable effect on the overall revenue growth of
the company.  The Commercial, Medical and Aerospace segments comprised 42%, 34%
and 24% of the company's net sales, respectively.

         Gross profit margin declined slightly from 30.9% in 1994 to 30.6% in
1995 and operating expenses decreased from 22.6% to 22.4%.  The decline in
gross profit margin was the result of declines in the Medical and Commercial
segments which were nearly offset by an improvement in the Aerospace Segment.
The slight drop in operating expenses as a percentage of sales was due to
declines in the Commercial and Aerospace segments which offset an increase in
the Medical Segment.  The Medical Segment expenses were affected negatively by
a $1.2 million pre-tax charge for severence costs incurred during the quarter.

         Operating profit increased 9% in the third quarter of 1995 from $18.3
million to $20.0 million while operating margin was flat at 9.5% of sales.  An
increase in both operating profit and operating margin of the Commercial and
Aerospace segments offset declines in the Medical Segment.

         Interest expense in 1995 was unchanged as both interest rates and debt
levels remained relatively constant.  The effective tax rate was 35% in both
1995 and 1994.  Net income in 1995 increased 12% to $8.3 million compared with
$7.4 million in 1994 and earnings per share increased 10% to $.46 per share
from $.42 per share.


Industry Segment Review

         Sales in the Commercial Segment increased 11% from $79.2 million in
1994 to $87.7 million in 1995.  The increase was due to gains in the Automotive
and Industrial product lines as the Marine product line declined slightly.
Operating profit increased 23% from $8.8 million to $10.9 million and operating
margin increased from 11% to 12% of sales.  Increases in the
<PAGE>   7

Automotive and Industrial product lines offset declines in the Marine product
line.


         The Medical Segment sales increased 14% from $64.0 million in 1994 to
$72.6 million in 1995.  The increase was evenly spread among internal growth,
1994 acquisitions and the effects of translation.  Operating profit declined
23% from $8.4 million in 1994 to $6.4 million in 1995 and operating margin
declined from 13% to 9%.  While sales have increased, both operating profit and
operating margins were hampered by increased new product development expenses,
stepped-up direct sales efforts and the assimilation of the 1994 acquisitions
into the existing Medical businesses.  Additionally, in 1995 a $1.2 million
pre-tax charge for severence was incurred during the quarter.


         The Aerospace Segment sales at $50.0 million in 1995 were flat
compared with 1994 as an increase in the aerospace controls product line offset
a decline in the Sermatech product line sales.  Operating profit increased 139%
from $1.1 million in 1994 to $2.7 million in 1995 and operating margin improved
from 2% to 5%.  The increases were the result of the capacity consolidation and
productivity improvements made during 1994.


Cash Flow and Financial Position

         Cash flow from operations increased $8.5 million for the period ended
September 1995 compared with September 1994.  The improvement resulted
primarily from a decrease in accounts receivable offset by inventory growth and
the timing of other cash payments.  Working capital increased from $220.5
million at December 25, 1994 to $242.8 million at September 24, 1995.  The
ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.3 to 1 at both September
24, 1995 and December 25, 1994.  Long-term borrowings declined $4.4 million as
net payments offset the effects of translation on the company's foreign
currency denominated debt.  The ratio of long-term borrowings to total
capitalization improved from 38% at December 25, 1994 to 35% at September 24,
1995.
