NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1.
- -------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating
results for the three month period ended November 30, 1993 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending August 31, 1994. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 1993.
NOTE 2.
- -------
Fiscal 1993 results have been restated for the Frictiontech Inc. pooling of
interests transaction which occurred in June 1993.
NOTE 3.
- -------
Effective October 1, 1993, the company purchased the Hydraulic Brake and
Clutch Division of FAG Kugelfischer, located in Germany, for approximately
$75,000,000. In addition, if this division exceeds certain net income
thresholds during the first five years subsequent to the acquisition date,
the purchase price will be increased by not more than $14,000,000. The
acquisition was accounted for by the purchase method.
NOTE 4.
- -------
During the first quarter of fiscal 1994, the company adopted the provisions
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (FAS 109),
"Accounting for Income Taxes." FAS 109 changes the accounting for income
taxes from the deferred to an asset and liability method. The cumulative
effect of adopting this accounting change, which is included in the
preceding results of operations, was a $2,583,000 increase in net income.

ECHLIN INC.
MANAGEMENT'S FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Net sales for the first three months of fiscal 1994 increased
$36,936,000 or eight percent. Recent acquisitions provided nearly
half of this growth while comparable operations provided the
remainder. Domestic comparable operations net sales increased eight
percent primarily due to unit volume increases and price changes.
Our automotive brake and heavy duty businesses provided the
strongest improvement. Foreign comparable operations declined eight
percent due largely to the negative translation impact upon sales as
the U.S. dollar strengthened in relation to the British pound,
Canadian dollar and German mark. Although overall foreign unit
volume was down slightly, only our German, Brazilian and Mexican
operations reported declines.
The percentage of gross profit to sales for the first three months
of fiscal 1994 increased to 29.1 percent from 28.9 percent a year
ago due to higher domestic production levels.
Although selling and administrative expenses increased $5,248,000
over the prior year, as a percentage of sales they declined to 21.6
percent as compared to 22.2 percent last year. The dollar increase
was primarily a result of acquisitions.
Interest expense declined $436,000 from the previous year due to
lower average interest rates and debt levels.
Net income for the quarter ended November 30, 1993 included income
of $2,583,000, which represented the cumulative effect of adopting
the provisions of FAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
During the first three months of fiscal 1994, operations provided
$12,996,000 of cash flow vs. $22,723,000 a year ago. The increase
in net income was offset by larger cash outflows reflecting changes
in working capital items. Accounts receivable were higher due to
increased sales levels while inventories were up in anticipation of
sales forecasts for the remainder of the fiscal year. Outflows for
the payment of taxes were higher due to the company's increased
income levels.
Debt levels at November 30, 1993 increased $87,356,000 from year end
primarily due to borrowings for acquisitions. Total debt as a
percentage of total capital was 26 percent, the same level as a year
ago, but higher than the 19 percent reported at August 31, 1993.
