Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly Selas Corporation of America's consolidated financial position as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, and the consolidated results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 and consolidated statements of shareholders' equity and cash flows for the six months then ended. 2. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in note 1 to the Company's financial statements in the 1995 Selas Corporation of America Annual Report. 3. Inventories consist of the following: June 30, December 31, 1996 1995 Raw material $2,768,709 $2,403,147 Work-in-process 1,817,015 1,334,531 Finished products and components 4,023,077 4,054,456 Total $8,608,801 $7,792,134 ========== ========== 4. Income Taxes Consolidated income taxes for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are $884,000 and $907,000 which result in effective tax rates of 39.0% and 45.2%, respectively. The rate of tax in relation to pre-tax income in 1995 has been impacted by the settlement of a tax issue at one of the Company's European subsidiaries in the amount of approximately $139,000. -10- SELAS CORPORATION OF AMERICA PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 1. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)- (Continued) 5. Legal Proceedings The Company is a defendant along with a number of other parties in approximately 112 lawsuits as of December 31, 1995 (210 as of December 31, 1994) alleging that plaintiffs have or may have contracted asbestos-related diseases as a result of exposure to asbestos products or equipment containing asbestos sold by one or more named defendants. Due to the noninformative nature of the complaints, the Company does not know whether any of the complaints state valid claims against the Company. The Company is also one of approximately 500 defendants in a class action on behalf of approximately 2700 present or former employees of a Texas steel mill alleging that products supplied by the defendants created a poisoned atmosphere that caused unspecified physical harm. These cases are being defended by one or more of the Company's insurance carriers presently known to be "at risk". Through October 1993, the legal costs of defense of the asbestos and steel mill cases were shared among the insurance carriers (92%) and the Company (8%). The lead insurance carrier settled a number of the cases in 1993 and requested that the Company pay a portion of the settlement amount. The Company declined to do so because no such payment is required by the express terms of the policies. The lead carrier then purported in October 1993 to abrogate the arrangement under which the defense costs had been shared, and the Company responded by tendering all of the cases to the lead carrier and demanding that the lead carrier honor its obligations under its policies to pay 100% of the costs of defense and 100% of all settlements and judgments up to the policy limits. The lead carrier has settled approximately 98 and 450 claims in 1995 and 1994, respectively with no request for the Company to participate in any settlement. The lead carrier has informed the Company that the primary policy for the period July 1, 1972 - July 1, 1975 has been exhausted and that the lead carrier will no longer provide a defense under that policy. The Company has requested that the lead carrier substantiate this situation. The Company has contacted representatives of the Company's excess insurance carrier for some or all of this period. The Company does not believe that the asserted exhaustion of the primary insurance coverage for this period will have a material adverse effect on the Company. In 1995, a dispute arose under a contract between a customer and a subsidiary of the Company that was submitted to arbitration. The customer alleged that the subsidiary had breached the contract and that the customer was entitled to recision of the contract. The Company recorded revenue of -11- SELAS CORPORATION OF AMERICA Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 1. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)- (Continued) 5. Legal Proceedings (Continued) approximately $1,400,000 under the contract in 1994 and had, as of December 1995 and June 30, 1996, a current billed receivable of $140,000 for the balance of the aggregate amount due under the contract. The subsidiary of the Company has contested the customer's claims in the arbitration proceeding. 6.

Accounts Receivable At June 30, 1996, the Company had $1,473,257 of trade accounts receivable due from the major U.S. automotive manufacturers and $2,979,070 of trade accounts receivable due from hearing aid manufacturers. The Company also had $8,608,185 in receivables from long-term contracts for customers in the steel industry in North America, Europe and Asia. 8. Earnings Per Common and Common Equivalent Share Earnings per common and common equivalent share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding each quarter, giving effect to the exercise of outstanding stock options, where dilutive. -12- SELAS CORPORATION OF AMERICA PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Consolidated net sales increased to $25.5 million and $44 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $17 million and $38.4 million for the same periods in 1995. Net sales for the heat processing segment increased to $15.3 million and $23.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to $7.2 million and $18.2 million for the same periods in 1995. The higher level of sales for this business segment is due to an increase in orders for large engineered systems contracts. Sales and earnings of large engineered systems contracts are recognized on a percentage-of- completion method. Such contracts generally require more than twelve months to complete. The sales backlog for the heat processing segment at June 30, 1996 is $49.5 million compared to $26 million at June 30, 1995. Net sales for the precision electromechanical and plastic components segment increased to $6.9 million and $13.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $6.3 million and $12.2 million for the same periods in 1995. Higher sales to the hearing aid industry is the primary reason for the improved sales in this business segment. Net sales for the tire holders, lifts and related products segment decreased to $3.3 million and $6.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $3.5 million and $8 million for the same periods in 1995. Lower sales for this business segment are due to the expiration of the contract to provide tire lifts for the Chrysler mini-van line in April 1995. The Company's consolidated gross profit margins decreased to 20.8% and 22.8% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to 27.1% and 26.4% for the same periods in 1995. The gross profit margins for the Company's heat processing segment decreased to 13.6% and 16% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to 24.3% and 23.9% for the same periods in 1995. The lower gross profit margins for the three and six month periods in 1996 are partially due to one contract which is expected to result in a slight loss and this loss has been recorded in the current year. The decrease in heat processing gross profit margins also results from the fact that heat processing gross profit margins vary markedly from contract to contract depending on customer specifications and other conditions related to the contract. Gross profit margins for the precision electromechanical and plastics segment increased to 39.5% and 40% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to 37.4% and 35.4% for the same periods in 1995. The improved gross profit margins are due to lower production costs due to productivity improvements and higher production levels. The gross profit margins for the Company's tire holders, lifts and related products segment for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 were 15.9% and 12.6% compared to 14.4% and 18.1% for the same periods in 1995. The lower gross profit margins for the current six month period compared to the same period in 1995 -13- SELAS CORPORATION OF AMERICA PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) are due to the loss of the Chrysler mini-van contract and higher production costs which were not passed on to the automotive customers through selling price increases. The improvement in the current three month period compared to the same period last year is due to productivity improvements. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased slightly to $3.8 million and $7.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to $3.9 million and $7.6 million for the same periods in 1995. Interest income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 declined to $70,000 and $137,000 compared to $77,000 and $153,000 for the same periods in 1995. The lower income is due to fewer funds available for short-term investment. Interest expense decreased to $246,000 and $494,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to $340,000 and $621,000 for the same periods in 1995. The reduced interest expense is due to lower borrowings in 1996. Other income (expense) includes gains on foreign exchange of $18,000 and $29,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 compared to losses of $154,000 and $139,000 for the same periods in 1995. Consolidated income taxes for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are $884,000 and $907,000 which result in effective tax rates of 39.0% and 45.2%, respectively. The rate of tax in relation to pre- tax income in 1995 has been impacted by the settlement of a tax issue at one of the Company's European subsidiaries in the amount of approximately $139,000. Consolidated net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 is $807,000 and $1,381,000 compared to a loss of $64,000 and net income of $1,100,000 for the same periods in 1995. The second quarter of 1995 was unfavorably impacted by a restructuring charge of $365,000 ($285,000 net of tax), and an unfavorable tax settlement in Germany of $139,000. Liquidity and Capital Resources Consolidated net working capital increased to $16.1 million at June 30, 1996 from $15.8 million at December 31, 1995. The $.3 million improvement is due primarily to the earnings for the six months, depreciation and amortization expense higher than capital expenditures, partially offset by payment of dividends and long-term debts. The largest changes in the components of working capital are current liabilities up $9.7 million, cash up $5.6 million, receivables up $3.9 million and inventories up $.8 million. -14- SELAS CORPORATION OF AMERICA PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) The Company believes that its present working capital position, combined with funds expected to be generated from operations and the available borrowing capacity through its revolving credit loan facilities, will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements for operating needs and capital expenditures for 1996. -15- SELAS CORPORATION OF AMERICA PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 4.
