                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Amcast Industrial Corporation
401(k) Salary Deferral Plan

We have audited the accompanying  statement of net assets available for benefits
of Amcast Industrial  Corporation 401(k) Salary Deferral Plan as of December 31,
2000 and 1999, and the related  statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the four months ended December
31,  1999.  These  financial  statements  are the  responsibility  of the Plan's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the  United  States of  America.  Those  standards  require  that we 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.  We believe our audits  provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all  material  respects,  the net assets  available  for benefits of the Plan at
December  31,  2000 and 1999,  and the changes in its net assets  available  for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the four months ended December
31, 1999, in conformity with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted in the
United States of America.

Our audits  were made for the  purpose  of  forming an opinion on the  financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying  supplemental  schedules of assets
held for  investment  purposes as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 is presented for
purposes of complying with the Department of Labor's Rules and  Regulations  for
Reporting and Disclosure  under the Employee  Retirement  Income Security Act of
1974, and are not a required part of the financial statements.  The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of
the financial  statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

1. Description of the Plan

The following description of Amcast Industrial Corporation 401(k) Salary
Deferral Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only.
Participants should refer to the Summary Plan Description for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.

General

The Plan is a contributory defined contribution plan covering substantially all
employees of Amcast Industrial Corporation (the Company and Plan Sponsor) who
are compensated on a salary basis or are hourly and are not covered by a
collective bargaining agreement. Eligible employees may participate on the first
day of the month coincident with or first following six months of employment. It
is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

Contributions

Each year, participants may contribute, in whole percentages, an amount up to 20
percent of annual compensation, as defined by the Plan Document. Additionally,
participants may make up to two lump sum contributions to the Plan per year.
Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other
qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. The Company makes
matching contributions equal to 25 percent of the first 6 percent of
compensation that is deferred by participants to the Plan. These matching
contributions are made in common stock of the Company. The Company also makes
supplemental matching contributions to the Plan provided that the Company's
annual minimum return on net worth is at least 9 percent. The amount of these
supplemental matching contributions increases based upon the level of return;
however, the amount shall not exceed 35 percent of the participants' salary
deferral contributions. All employer contributions are in Company stock.

Vesting

Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings
thereon. Vesting in the Company contribution portion of their accounts plus
actual earnings thereon is based on years of continuous service. Participants
are 50 percent vested in Company contributions made after one year of service
with the Company, 75 percent vested after two years of service, and fully vested
after three years of service.






1. Description of the Plan (continued)

Participant Loans

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $500 up to a
maximum of the lesser of $50,000 (less the highest outstanding balance of any
loan made to the participant under the Plan during the 12-month period preceding
the date of the loan) or 50 percent of his or her vested account balance. The
loan term is not to exceed 5 years unless the loan is for the purchase of a
principal residence, in which case the term may be as long as 30 years. Interest
and principal is paid ratably through at least quarterly payroll deductions.

Participant Accounts

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and
allocations of (a) the Company's contributions and (b) Plan earnings. The
benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided
from the participant's account.

Payment of Benefits

On termination of service for any reason, a participant may receive a lump-sum
amount equal to the vested value of his or her account, in either cash or stock.

Administrative Expenses

Substantially all expenses of the Plan are paid by the Company.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The Plan's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.






2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Investment Valuation

The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. The shares of registered
investment companies are valued at quoted market prices which represent the net
asset values of shares held by the Plan at year-end. Participant loans are
valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value. Company
common stock and the participation units owned by the Plan in the
common/collective trust fund are based on quoted redemption value on the last
business day of the Plan year.

3. Investments

The fair value of individual investments that represent 5 percent or more of the
Plan's net assets at December 31, 2000 and 1999, are as follows:

4. Income Tax Status

The Internal Revenue Service ruled on July 21, 1992, that the Plan qualifies
under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "IRC") and, therefore,
the underlying trust is not subject to income tax under present tax law. The
Plan was subsequently amended. The Pension Administration Committee believes
that the Plan, as amended is operating in conformity with the IRC. Once
qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the IRC to
maintain its qualification. The Pension Administration Committee is not aware of
any course of action or series of events that have occurred that might adversely
affect the Plan's qualified status.

5. Transactions With Parties-In-Interest

The Trust is not charged for administrative services performed on its behalf by
the Company. The Plan also invests in common stock of the Company which is the
Plan Sponsor.

 6. Plan Termination

Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination,
participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts.
