KENNAMETAL INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- ----------------------------------------------------------------

 1.     The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in 
	conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included 
	in the company's 1994 Annual Report.  The condensed consolidated balance 
	sheet as of June 30, 1994 has been derived from the audited balance 
	sheet included in the company's 1994 Annual Report.  These interim 
	statements are unaudited; however, management believes that all 
	adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been made and all 
	adjustments are normal, recurring adjustments.  The results for the 
	three months ended September 30, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of 
	the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

 2.     Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined 
	using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for a significant portion of 
	domestic inventories and the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or 
	average cost for other inventories.  The company used the LIFO method  
	of valuing its inventories for approximately 60 percent of total 
	inventories at September 30, 1994.  Because inventory valuations under 
	the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and 
	costs as of June 30 of each year, the interim LIFO valuations are based 
	on management's projections of expected year-end inventory levels and 
	costs.  Therefore, the interim financial results are subject to any 
	final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

 3.     The major classes of inventory as of the balance sheet dates were as 
	follows (dollars in thousands):



					September 30,     June 30,
					   1994             1994
					-------------    ---------

     Raw materials and supplies             22,561         20,571
					  --------       --------
     Inventory at current cost             201,750        187,604
     Less LIFO valuation                   (31,628)       (29,425)
					  --------       --------

       Total inventories                  $170,122       $158,179
					  ========       ========


 4.     The company has been involved in various environmental cleanup and 
	remediation activities at several of its manufacturing facilities.  In 
	addition, the company has been named as a potentially responsible party 
	at four Superfund sites in the United States.  However, it is 
	management's opinion, based on its evaluations and discussions with 
	outside counsel and independent consultants, that the ultimate 
	resolution of these environmental matters will not have a material 
	adverse effect on the results of operations or financial position of the 
	company.

	The company maintains a Corporate Environmental, Health and Safety 
	(EH&S) Department to effect compliance with all environmental 
	regulations and to monitor and oversee remediation activities.  In 
	addition, the company has established an EH&S administrator at each of 
	its domestic manufacturing facilities.  The company's financial 
	management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EH&S 
	Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the 
	status of environmental projects and contingencies.  On a quarterly and 
	annual basis, management establishes or adjusts financial provisions and 
	reserves for environmental contingencies in accordance with Statement of 
	Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 5, "Accounting for 
	Contingencies."

 5.     On August 4, 1993, the company completed the acquisition of an 81 
	percent interest in Hertel AG (Hertel) for $43 million in cash and $55 
	million of assumed debt.  Hertel is a manufacturer of cemented carbide 
	tools and tooling systems based in Furth, Germany.

	The Hertel acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of 
	accounting and, accordingly, the results of operations of Hertel for the 
	period beginning as of August 4, 1993, forward are included in the 
	accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.  The purchase 
	price has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed 
	based on fair market value at the date of acquisition.  The excess of 
	the purchase price over the fair market value of the net assets acquired 
	has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized over twenty years.  
	The fair values (as adjusted) of assets acquired and liabilities assumed 
	are summarized below (in thousands):

	  Current assets                    $114,800
	  Property, plant and equipment       70,200
	  Intangible assets (goodwill)         5,800
	  Deferred tax asset                  40,600
	  Other noncurrent assets             12,400
	  Current liabilities                104,700
	  Long-term liabilities               89,400

	As presented above, current liabilities includes a reserve of 
	approximately $36.0 million (pretax) for the restructuring of Hertel.  
	The restructuring costs primarily include amounts for severance, phase-
	out and relocation.  The cumulative charges to the restructuring reserve 
	total $20.1 million, leaving a balance of $16.3 million at September 30, 
	1994.  It is expected that the restructuring, which began in fiscal 
	1994, will be substantially completed during fiscal year 1995.

	In the September 1994 quarter, the company purchased an additional 
	37,000 common shares of Hertel at a purchase price of DM128 per share.  
	The company's ownership interest in Hertel as of September 30, 1994 was 
	85 percent.

	In connection with the acquisition of Hertel, the company recognized a 
	special charge in the September 1993 quarter of approximately $20.4 
	million after taxes in connection with the closure of its manufacturing 
	facility in Neunkirchen, Germany, and other integration related actions.  
	The cumulative charges to the related reserve total $19.4 million, a 
	significant portion of which were cash charges, leaving a balance of 
	$5.3 million at September 30, 1994.  It is expected that spending 
	related to this charge will be substantially completed during fiscal 
	year 1995.

	The effect of the purchase on the company's operations, assuming the 
	transaction had occurred on July 1, 1992, would be as follows:

	The pro forma financial information presented above does not purport to 
	present what the company's results of operations would actually have 
	been if the acquisition of Hertel had occurred on July 1, 1992, or to 
	project the company's results of operations for any future period.

 6.     Effective July 1, 1993, the company adopted SFAS No. 106, "Employers' 
	Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions."  The change 
	did not significantly affect earnings before cumulative effect of 
	changes in methods of accounting in the first quarter of fiscal year 
	1994.

	The company provides varying levels of postretirement health care and 
	life insurance benefits to most U.S. employees who retire from active 
	service after having attained age 55 and 10 years of service.  This plan 
	remains in effect for all current retirees and employees who will retire 
	prior to January 1, 1997.  However, for those employees retiring on or 
	after January 1, 1997, the following plan amendments will be effective.  
	The company's retiree health care payments will be capped at 1996 
	levels.  To qualify for medical benefits at normal retirement (age 65 or 
	later), employees must have a minimum of 5 years of service after age 
	40.  Medical benefits will be available for only those retirements that 
	begin on or after the normal retirement age of 65.

	The following table presents the components of the company's liability 
	for future retiree health care and life insurance benefits as of June 
	30, 1994 and July 1, 1993.

							========     ========


	As of September 30, 1994, the company's accrued postretirement benefit 
liability was $35.8 million.

	The components of retiree health care cost for the first quarter of 
fiscal year 1995 were as follows:



						      (Dollars in thousands)
                                                            
       Service cost                                            $  300
       Interest cost                                              725
							       ------

	 Total cost                                            $1,025
							       ======


	The discount rate used in calculating the accumulated postretirement 
	benefit obligations was 8.5 percent.  In determining the accumulated 
	postretirement benefit obligations at July 1, 1993 and June 30, 1994, 
	the assumed rates of increase in health care were 15 percent for 
	retirees under age 65 and 10 percent for persons age 65 and older.  
	These rates are assumed to decrease to varying degrees annually to 
	6 percent for years 2002 and thereafter.  A 1 percent increase in the 
	trend rate would increase both the accumulated postretirement benefit 
	obligation at June 30, 1994 and the total cost of the plan for the first 
	quarter of fiscal year 1995 by approximately 8 percent.  The accumulated 
	postretirement benefit obligation is unfunded.

	Effective July 1, 1994, the company adopted SFAS No. 112, "Employers' 
	Accounting for Postemployment Benefits."  Under the new standard, the 
	company must recognize the obligation to provide benefits to former or 
	inactive employees after employment, but before retirement.  The 
	implementation of the new standard did not have a material impact on the 
	results of operations or financial position of the company.

 7.     Effective July 1, 1993, the company adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting 
	for Income Taxes."  The company previously accounted for income taxes 
	pursuant to the provisions of APB No. 11.  The new standard requires the 
	use of the liability method to recognize deferred income tax assets and 
	liabilities using enacted tax rates.  As a result of implementing the 
	change in accounting principle, a net deferred tax liability of $5.6 
	million was recognized relating to net operating loss carryforwards and 
	other tax attributes existing as of July 1, 1993.  In addition, the 
	income tax effect of the new method of accounting related to the 
	company's adoption of SFAS No. 106 as of July 1, 1993 was the 
	recognition of additional deferred tax assets of $13.9 million.  The 
	combined effect of these items resulted in the recognition of an $8.3 
	million net deferred tax asset and a net income tax benefit of $5.1 
	million.

	The components of the company's deferred tax assets and liabilities 
	arising under SFAS No. 109 were as follows:

       Accumulated depreciation                         $ 20,617    $ 21,953
							========    ========


	As a component of its cumulative adjustment from implementing SFAS No. 
	109, the company recognized a charge of $1.1 million to establish a 
	valuation reserve related to certain tax attributes comprising its net 
	deferred tax asset.  As of July 1, 1993, deferred tax liabilities 
	associated with existing taxable temporary differences exceeded deferred 
	tax assets from future deductible temporary differences, excluding those 
	attributable to SFAS No. 106, by approximately $5.7 million.  The 
	recognition by the company as of July 1, 1993, of the entire transition 
	obligation related to adopting the provisions of SFAS No. 106 resulted 
	in the recognition of a $13.9 million deferred tax asset.  Future 
	operating costs under SFAS No. 106 are expected to exceed deductible 
	amounts for income tax purposes for many years.  In addition, under 
	current federal tax regulations, should the company incur tax losses in 
	future periods, such losses may be carried forward to offset taxable 
	income for a period of up to 15 years.  Based upon the length of the 
	period during which the SFAS No. 106-generated deferred tax asset can be 
	utilized, the company believes that it is more likely than not that 
	future taxable income will be sufficient to offset fully these future 
	deductions and a valuation allowance for this deferred tax asset is not 
	necessary.

	At June 30, 1994, the company had unused tax benefits of $50.8 million 
	related to non-U.S. net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards for income 
	tax purposes, of which $46.7 million can be carried forward indefinitely 
	with the balance expiring at various dates through 2001.  A significant 
	portion ($46.7 million) of the unused tax benefits relate to the Federal 
	Republic of Germany.

	The company believes that it is more likely than not that $45.1 million 
	of NOL carryforwards will be utilized in future periods.  The recorded 
	tax benefits are expected to be realized by achieving future profitable 
	operations in Germany.  The German NOL carryforwards can be carried 
	forward indefinitely.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
	 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

	 FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

There were no material changes in financial position, liquidity or capital 
resources between June 30, 1994 and September 30, 1994.  The ratio of current 
assets to current liabilities was 1.7 as of September 30, 1994 as compared 
with 1.6 as of June 30, 1994.  The debt to capital ratio (i.e., total debt 
divided by the sum of total debt and shareholders' equity) was 31 percent as 
of September 30, 1994 unchanged from June 30, 1994.

In the September 1993 quarter, the company recorded cumulative effect charges 
aggregating $15 million after taxes for the adoption of SFAS No. 106 and SFAS 
No. 109.  While these charges did not involve the use of cash, they had a 
significant effect on various components of the company's consolidated 
financial position at September 30, 1993.

Capital expenditures are estimated to be $50-55 million in fiscal year 1995.  
Expenditures are being made to modernize facilities and upgrade machinery and 
equipment.  Capital expenditures are being financed with cash from operations 
and borrowings under existing revolving credit agreements with banks.

		       RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SALES AND EARNINGS

During the quarter ended September 30, 1994, consolidated sales were $219 
million, up 25 percent from $176 million in the same quarter last year.  The 
prior year sales include only two months of Hertel revenues.  On a comparable 
year over year basis, it is estimated that sales were up 16 percent from the 
prior year.

Net income for the September 1994 quarter was $10.7 million, or $0.40 per 
share, as compared with a net loss of $33.1 million, or $1.51 per share in the 
same quarter last year.  The net loss in the prior year includes the 
unfavorable cumulative noncash effect of adopting SFAS No. 106 ($20.1 million 
net of income tax effect) and the favorable cumulative noncash effect of 
adopting SFAS No. 109 ($5.1 million).  In addition to the cumulative effect of 
changes in accounting principles, prior year results included a restructuring 
charge of $20.4 million after taxes.

The following table presents the company's sales by product class and
geographic area (dollars in thousands):



			      Quarter ended September 30,

METALWORKING PRODUCTS

During the September 1994 quarter, worldwide sales of metalworking products 
increased 27 percent from last year.  The prior year metalworking sales 
include only two months of Hertel revenues.  On a comparable year over year 
basis, worldwide sales of metalworking products are estimated to have 
increased 15 percent.

In the United States, sales of metalcutting inserts and toolholding devices 
increased 15 percent.  Total sales of industrial supply products increased 22 
percent as a result of increased sales through mail order catalogs and full 
service supply programs.

International sales of metalworking products increased 48 percent from the 
previous year primarily because of the impacts of the Hertel acquisition, 
favorable foreign currency translation effects and higher sales volume in 
Europe.  Excluding the acquisition impacts and currency translation effects, 
international metalworking sales increased an estimated 11 percent.

MINING AND CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS

During the September 1994 quarter, sales of mining and construction tools 
increased 12 percent from the previous year primarily because of strong 
domestic demand for mining tools.  International demand for highway 
construction and mining tools remains weak, particularly in Europe.

METALLURGICAL PRODUCTS

During the September 1994 quarter, sales of metallurgical products increased 
28 percent from the previous year primarily because of strong international 
demand for carbide powders.

GROSS PROFIT MARGIN

As a percentage of sales, the gross profit margin for the September 1994 
quarter was 41.5 percent as compared with 39.9 percent in the prior year.  The 
gross profit margin benefited from a favorable sales mix and increased 
manufacturing efficiencies.  However, these benefits were partially offset by 
higher raw material costs.

OPERATING EXPENSES

For the quarter ended September 30, 1994, research and development, marketing 
and general and administrative expenses increased 12 percent as a result of 
the acquisition impacts, higher sales volume and unfavorable foreign currency 
translation effects.

As a percentage of sales, operating expenses decreased to 31.1 percent as 
compared with 34.5 percent last year.  The operating expense ratio decreased 
as a result of the decrease in general and administrative expenses combined 
with the increase in consolidated sales.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense was $3.5 million for the September 1994 quarter, as compared 
with $4.1 million for the same period last year.  The decrease was primarily 
due to the lower amount of debt outstanding in the September 1994 quarter as 
compared with the prior year.  As of September 30, 1994 approximately 35 
percent of the company's total debt was subject to variable interest rates.

INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the September 1994 quarter was 43 percent compared 
with an effective tax rate, excluding the acquisition impacts, effects of the 
accounting changes and the restructuring charge, of 41.8 percent in the prior 
year.

OUTLOOK

In looking to the second quarter ending December 31, 1994, management expects
consolidated sales to increase from the $195 million achieved in the same 
quarter last year.  Sales of metalworking products in the United States should 
benefit from the continued expansion of the economy, catalog sales and full 
service supply programs.  In addition, international sales are expected to 
improve as the European economies continue to expand.  Sales of mining and 
construction tools should continue to grow from increased domestic demand for 
mining tools.
