The Company has attempted, where possible, to assess the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome as a result of these actions. Legal counsel has been retained to assist the Company in making these determinations, and costs are accrued when an unfavorable outcome is determined to be probable and a reasonable estimate can be made. Note 9: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - --------------------------------------------- Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 and 142, "Business Combinations" and "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", respectively, were published in June 2001. SFAS No. 141 requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations, and SFAS No. 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS Nos. 141 and 142 effective December 30, 2001, and accordingly, the Company's recorded goodwill is no longer being amortized. In addition, during the first quarter of 2002, the Company performed its initial impairment testing required by SFAS No. 142. No impairment loss or transition adjustments were required. 9 The following sets forth a reconciliation of reported net income and earnings per share to the same amounts adjusted to exclude amortization expense recognized on goodwill in each respective period: Second Qtr.

Management's Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Results Of Operations - --------------------- Operations - ---------- Net sales for the second quarter of 2002 were $93.7 million, a 13.1 percent increase from 2001 second quarter net sales of $82.9 million. Year to date 2002 net sales were $161.8 million, up 8.7 percent from year to date 2001 net sales of $148.8 million. The increased sales for the quarter and year to date were primarily the result of strong residential submersible electric motor sales in North America, as well as the inclusion of Coverco, a January 2002 acquisition. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of submersible fueling systems motors. Cost of sales as a percent of net sales for the second quarter of 2002 was 71.6 percent, a decrease from 72.1 percent for the same period in 2001. Cost of sales as a percent of net sales for the year to date 2002 was 72.5 percent, a decrease from 72.9 percent for the same period in 2001. The decrease is primarily the result of productivity improvement, cost reduction and other operations initiatives. Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales for the second quarter of 2002 were 14.3 percent compared to 14.2 percent for the same period in 2001. Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales for the year to date 2002 was 15.5 percent compared to 15.6 percent for the year to date 2001. Interest expense was $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2002 compared to $0.4 million for the second quarter of 2001. Interest expense for the year to date 2002 and year to date 2001 was $0.7 million. Included in other income for the second quarter of 2002 was $0.1 million of interest income compared to $0.2 million of interest income for the second quarter of 2001. Included in other income for the year to date 2002 was $0.2 million of interest income compared to $0.4 million of interest income for the same period in 2001. Interest income was attributable to amounts invested principally in short-term US treasury and agency securities. Foreign currency based transactions for the second quarter of 2002 produced a gain of $1.3 million compared to a $0.4 million loss for the same period in 2001. Foreign currency based transactions for the year to date 2002 produced a gain of $1.1 million compared to a $1.1 million loss for the same period in 2001. The foreign currency transaction gain was due primarily to the strengthening Euro relative to the U.S. dollar. Net income for the second quarter of 2002 was $9.0 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, a 36.2 percent increase compared to net income of $6.6 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, for the same period in 2001. Year to date 2002 net income was $12.7 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, a 31.8 percent increase compared to year to date 2001 net income of $9.6 million, or $0.84 per diluted share. 11 Capital Resources and Liquidity - ------------------------------- Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities decreased $13.2 million during the first half of 2002. The principal use of cash for operating activities was the seasonal increase in inventories. Working capital increased $0.6 million during the first half of 2002 and the current ratio was 2.4 and 2.7 at June 30, 2001, and December 29, 2001, respectively. Net cash flows used in investing activities were $21.3 million and were principally used for the acquisition of Coverco. "Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1995 - ---- Any forward looking statements contained herein involve risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to, general economic and currency conditions, various conditions specific to the Company's business and industry, market demand, competitive factors, supply constraints, technology factors, government and regulatory actions, the Company's accounting policies, future trends, and other risks which are detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward looking statements. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk - ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company is subject to market risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Foreign currency exchange rate risk is mitigated through several means: maintenance of local production facilities in the markets served, invoicing of customers in the same currency as the source of the products, prompt settlement of intercompany balances utilizing a global netting system and limited use of foreign currency denominated debt. Interest rate exposure is principally limited to any marketable U.S. treasury and agency securities owned by the Company and is mitigated by the short-term, generally less than 6 months, nature of these investments.
