Operating results for the nine-monththree-month period ended June 30,December 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2001.2002.

3. Earnings per Common Share and Common Equivalent Share: Earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods, includingyear. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", effective September 30, 1998. This statement requires a dual presentation and reconciliation of "basic" and "diluted" per share amounts. Diluted reflects the potential dilution of all common stock equivalents for the periods ended June 30,equivalents. At December 31, 2001 and 2000 options to purchase 146,983155,331 and 239,665146,983 shares, respectively, were excluded from the computation of earnings per share because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares. 5 of 1613 6 MCCLAIN INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NINETHREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,DECEMBER 31, 2001 4. Depreciation For the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2001 and 2000, depreciation charges were $2,111,053$691,565 and $2,140,958,$698,805, respectively. Accumulated depreciation totaled $25,120,241$26,076,890 and $23,259,276$25,353,719 at June 30,December 31, 2001 and September 30, 2000,2001, respectively. 5. Debt The Company's debt agreements contain certain restrictive covenants that require the Company to, among other things, meet certain net worth and working capital requirements along with maintaining various financial ratios. As the result of non compliance with certain of the financial covenants, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with its principal lending institution in June of 2001 and expiring August 31, 2001. Accordingly, the debt related to these agreements has been shown as a current liability. 6. Contingencies Product Liability As a manufacturer of industrial products, the Company is occasionally subjected to various product liability claims. Such claims typically involve personal injury or wrongful death associated with the use or misuse of the Company's products. The Company is currently defending certain legal proceedings involving allegations of product liability relating to products manufactured and sold by the Company. Historically, such claims have not resulted in material losses to the Company in any one year, and the Company maintains product liability insurance in amounts believed by management to be adequate. 6 of 16 7 MCCLAIN INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 McClain E-Z Pack, Inc., as successor to Galion Holding Company (GHC), pursuant to an indemnification it provided to the seller in connection with GHC's July 1992 acquisition of the Galion operations, is currently defending a number of legal proceedings involving product liability claims arising out of products manufactured and sold prior to the acquisition. These claims are covered by insurance and many of these cases have been settled. In addition, the acquisition agreement called for the seller to share in the payment of certain costs related to the defense of these cases. On December 29, 1998 the Company reached a settlement agreement with the seller the terms of which called for the Company to release the seller from its obligations related to product liability claims under the Galion acquisition agreement in exchange for a cash payment of $1,050,000. A reserve to provide for these product claims was established at the acquisition date. Since many of the cases have been settled and insurance coverage exists, management believes that the ongoing costs to defend these claims will not exceed the amount accrued on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at June 30,December 31, 2001. Nevertheless, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of any product liability claim, and any such claim not fully covered by insurance, as well as adverse publicity from a product claim, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. 6 of 13 MCCLAIN INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 Environmental Matters The Company's operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local regulation under environmental laws and regulations concerning, among other things, emissions into the air, discharges into the waters and the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste and other materials. Inherent in manufacturing operations and in owning real estate is the risk of environmental liabilities as a result of both current and past operations, which cannot be predicted with certainty. The Company has incurred and will continue to incur costs, on an ongoing basis, associated with environmental regulatory compliance in its business. Labor Union Matters Certain of the Company's hourly employees are represented by various labor unions pursuant to collective bargaining agreements which expire between NovemberSeptember 2002 and June 2003. 7 of 16 8 MCCLAIN INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 On February 23,In 1995, a local union filed unfair labor practices against the Company's Macon, Georgia plant, which were subsequently upheld by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) conducted an election in response to a petition filed by aand the U.S. Court of Appeals. The local union (Union) to represent the hourly employees at the Company's Macon, Georgia plant. The ballots of certain employees were challenged as ineligible. The Union filed charges asserting that the Company committed variousadditional unfair labor practices which affectedin 1996. The NLRB seeks back pay, reinstatement and an order requiring transfer of work. The Company is currently negotiating with the election results, andNLRB in an effort to reach a settlement of all of these matters. There can be no assurance that these claims will be settled or that the challenged ballots should be counted. On October 17, 1996,amounts awarded to the NLRB upheld the unfair labor practice charges and on November 5, 1996, the NLRB determined that the results of the election were in favor of the Union. The Company continues to vigorously defend against the unfair labor practice allegations. The Company doesunion will not believe a final decision upholding the Union certification or the unfair labor practice charges would have a material adverse effectimpact on the Company. The Company believes that relations with the hourly employees at McClain of Georgia are generally satisfactory. There have been no work stoppages due to labor difficulties. Other Legal Matters The Company is also involved in routine litigation incidental to its business. Management believes that the resolution of these matters will not materially affect the consolidated financial statements. 7. Other Matters The Company recorded a $1,100,000 charge against operations in March 2001 primarily related to the reduction of certain truck chassis to their estimated realizable value and for various severance packages for terminated employees. 8.6. Segment Information The Company operates in three principal operating segments 1) Manufactured Equipment, 2) Truck Chassis Sales, and 3) Leasing Operations. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1. Management evaluates the performance of its operating segments separately to individually monitor the different factors affecting performance. The Company measures the performance of its operating segments based on net revenue and operating income. Income taxes are managed on a Company-wide basis. Segment performance is also evaluated based on profit or loss before income taxes. 87 of 1613 9 McCLAINMCCLAIN INDUSTRIES, INC.
