NET SALES

      The 14.8% increase in sales for the three months ended April 30, 1995, and
      the 20.3%  increase for the nine months ended April 30, 1995,  as compared
      to  prior-year  periods,  were  the  result  of  increased  sales  in  the
      automotive  segment which were partially  offset by decreased sales in the
      nonautomotive  segment.  Sales for the  automotive  segment  continued  to
      increase  due to  increased  demand  for air bags for  both  domestic  and
      foreign automobile  manufacturers.  Third quarter sales for the automotive
      segment  increased  28.2% from  $19,485,900 to $24,989,300  and nine-month
      sales  increased  39.0% from  $47,153,600 to  $65,522,700,  as compared to
      prior-year periods. Sales for the nonautomotive segment decreased by 11.0%
      and  8.1%  for the  third  quarter  and  the  nine  months,  respectively,
      partially  due to the  relocation  of the Denver  aerospace  operations to
      Fairfield, California in September 1994.

COST OF SALES

      Cost of sales  increased  by 13.8% for the three  months  ended  April 30,
      1995,  and 16.5% for the nine months ended April 30, 1995,  as compared to
      the prior-year periods.  These increases were primarily  attributed to the
      increased sales of the automotive segment.  Costs were further impacted by
      start-up  costs  associated  with  Pyroindustrie,   OEA's  new  automotive
      subsidiary  in France,  which began  deliveries  of air bag  initiators in
      February  1995.  The cost of sales,  as a  percentage  of  sales,  were as
      follows:

      Three Months ended April 30, 1994 and 1995            63.6% to 63.1%
      Nine Months ended April 30, 1994 and 1995             66.9% to 64.7%


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

      General and  administrative  expenses  decreased by $162,500 for the three
      months ended April 30,  1995,  and $18,500 for the nine months ended April
      30, 1995, as compared to the  prior-year  periods.  These  decreases  were
      obtained  even  though the  Company  incurred  additional  start-up  costs
      associated with the Pyroindustrie facility in France. The ratio of general
      and administrative expenses to net sales decreased as follows:

      Three Months ended April 30, 1994 and 1995            5.7% to 4.5%
      Nine Months ended April 30, 1994 and 1995             5.9% to 4.9%









                                    -6-





 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

      Research and development  costs increased by $414,200 for the three months
      ended April 30, 1995,  and  $1,083,900 for the nine months ended April 30,
      1995, as compared to the prior-year  periods.  These costs are expected to
      increase  for  the   remainder  of  fiscal  year  1995  due  to  continued
      development of passenger, driver and side-impact hybrid inflators.


NET EARNINGS

      Net earnings increased $940,500 for the three months ended April 30, 1995,
      and  $1,316,000  for the nine months ended April 30, 1995,  as compared to
      prior-year  periods.  The  increase  during  the  third  quarter  resulted
      primarily from increased sales in the automotive segment. The increase for
      the nine months was largely  reduced by the  settlement  of the  Company's
      environmental matters in the amount of $2,250,000.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      The Company's working capital increased during the quarter to $54,914,300.
      During the  nine-month  period  ended April 30,  1995,  the  Company  made
      capital expenditures totaling approximately  $15,467,800 which were funded
      principally from operations. The Company maintains an $8,000,000 Revolving
      Credit  Agreement  with its principal  bank and at April 30, 1995,  had no
      outstanding  balance  against  this line of  credit.  Anticipated  working
      capital requirements,  capital  expenditures,  and facility expansions are
      expected to be met through internally generated funds and, when necessary,
      borrowings from the agreement mentioned above, which can be increased when
      required.


FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

      Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign  subsidiary are translated
      to U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are
      translated at average  exchange rates  prevailing  during the period.  The
      local currency is used as the functional  currency for the  subsidiary.  A
      translation  adjustment results from translating the foriegn  subsidiary's
      accounts  from  functional  currencies  to U.S.  dollars.  Exchange  gains
      (losses) resulting from foreign currency  transactions are included in the
      consolidated statements of operations.







                                    -7-





The unaudited  financial  statements  furnished  above  reflect all  adjustments
(consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
OEA's  management,  necessary  for a fair  statement  of  the  results  for  the
three-month and the nine-month periods ended April 30, 1995.

Refer to the Company's annual  financial  statements for the year ended July 31,
1994, for a description of the  accounting  policies,  which have been continued
without change.  Additionally,  a foreign currency  translation  policy has been
adopted for fiscal year 1995, as described  above.  Also, refer to the footnotes
with  those  financial  statements  for  additional  details  of  the  Company's
financial condition,  results of operations,  and changes in financial position.
The  details  in those  notes  have not  changed  except  as a result  of normal
transactions in the interim.
