1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 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 accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month
periods ended December 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in Triumph Group, Inc.'s (the "Company") Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended March 31, 2001.

Certain intangible assets at March 31, 2001, have been reclassified to conform
to the new presentation requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141").

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved the issuance of
SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS No.
142"). SFAS No. 141 applies to all business combinations completed after June
30, 2001 and requires the use of the purchase method of accounting. SFAS No. 141
also establishes new criteria for determining whether intangible assets should
be recognized separately from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 provides that goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be amortized but rather will be
tested for impairment on an annual basis. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001, however companies with fiscal years
beginning after March 15, 2001 may elect to adopt the statement early.
Accordingly, effective April 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. The
following table reflects the comparable prior year period's net income and
earnings per share as if SFAS No. 142 had been adopted on April 1, 2000:

3.       ACQUISITIONS

In August 2001, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of EMCO
Fluid Systems, Inc., renamed EFS Aerospace, Inc. ("EFS"). EFS, located in
Valencia, California, designs, produces, assembles and tests both hydraulic
and pneumatic valves and actuators for the aviation and aerospace industries.
The purchase price of approximately $38,166 includes the assumption of debt
and certain liabilities and direct costs of the transaction. The excess of
the purchase price over the preliminary estimated fair value of the net
assets acquired of $30,150 was recorded as excess of cost over net assets
acquired. The EFS acquisition agreement provides for a reduction in the
purchase price in the event certain performance measurements are not met on
each specified date through 2004. The pro forma effects of the EFS
acquisition for the nine months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 were not
material.

In conjunction with the EFS acquisition, the Company assumed $10,000 of seller
financing with an interest rate of 6% maturing between October 2002 and October
2005 and $1,067 of other debt. In October 2001, the Company retired
substantially all of the then outstanding balance of the other debt of EFS.

On August 23, 2001, the Company entered into a loan agreement with the Illinois
Development Finance Authority related to the Illinois Development Finance
Authority Economic Development Bonds, series of 2001 ("the Bonds"). The proceeds
of the Bonds of $7,500 were used to fund the purchase of the Company's
TriWestern Metals new electro-galvanizing production line. The Bonds are due to
mature on August 1, 2016 and are secured by the equipment. The Bonds bear
interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR, which at December 31, 2001 was 3.5%.

Options to purchase 358,200 shares of common stock, at prices ranging from
$31.38 per share to $44.88 per share, were outstanding during the third quarter
of fiscal 2002. These options were not included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share because the exercise price was greater than the average
market price of the common stock during the three months ended December 31, 2001
and, therefore, the effect would be antidilutive.

7.       COMMON STOCK OFFERING

In March 2001, the Company completed the sale of 3,000,003 shares of its Common
stock for $37.50 a share through an underwritten public offering. In addition,
the Company granted the underwriters of its public offering a 30-day option to
purchase additional shares to cover over-allotments. In April 2001, the
Underwriters exercised the over-allotment option and the Company sold an
additional 450,000 shares of its Common stock. The net proceeds from the sales
of $122,406 were used to repay long-term debt.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, 1,500,000 shares of Class D Common stock
were converted to Common stock.

In September 2001, the Company purchased 25,000 shares of its common stock as
Treasury stock for an aggregate purchase price of $750.

9. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Effective April 1, 2001 the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137 and
SFAS No. 138. This standard requires that all derivative financial instruments,
such as interest rate swap contracts, be recognized in the financial statements
and measured at fair value regardless of the purpose or intent for holding them.
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are either
recognized periodically in income or shareholder's equity (as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive income), depending on whether the derivative is
being used to hedge changes in fair value or cash flows. The adoption of SFAS
No. 133 resulted in a loss of $3,119 recorded to accumulated other comprehensive
loss and a liability recorded in deferred income taxes and other.

Use of Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses derivative financial instruments principally to manage the risk
that changes in interest rates will affect the amount of its future interest
payments. The following is a summary of the Company's risk management strategies
and the effect of these strategies on the consolidated financial statements.

Interest Rate Risk Management

The Company uses a two-year interest rate swap contract to adjust the amount of
total debt that is subject to variable interest rates. Under the interest rate
swap contract, the Company pays amounts equal to the specified fixed-rate of
interest (6.56%) multiplied by the notional principal amount ($100,000), and
receives a variable rate of interest (30-day LIBOR) multiplied by the same
notional principal amount. No other cash payments are made unless the contract
is terminated prior to maturity, in which case the amount paid or received in
settlement is established by agreement at the time of termination and should
represent the market quotation, at current rates of interest, of the remaining
obligations to exchange payments under the terms of the contract. The
counterparty to the interest rate swap agreement exposes the Company to credit
loss in the event of non-performance, although the Company does not anticipate
such non-performance. Pursuant to SFAS No. 133, the Company accounts for its
interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge which is highly effective. As
of December 31, 2001, the interest rate swap is reflected at fair value of
$4,043 and is included in deferred income taxes and other with a corresponding
amount included in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company has not
experienced any ineffectiveness with its interest rate swap and accordingly has
not recognized any gains or losses in its earnings.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations


(The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein.)

THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2000

AVIATION SEGMENT

         NET SALES. Net sales for the Aviation segment increased by $8.9
million, or 6.9%, to $138.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from
$129.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. This growth in revenue is
mainly due to the acquisition of EFS Aerospace, Inc. ("EFS") which accounts for
$7.3 million of the increase. The remaining net increase is due to our increased
participation in the expanding regional jet market, namely the Canadair RJ
programs, growth of participation in Airbus programs, primarily the A319, A320
and A321 programs and certain military programs, most significantly the C-17
program. Increases in certain Boeing program build rates, namely the B737 new
generation, added to the growth of net sales in the quarter over the prior year
period offset by declines in other programs, most notably the E-2C.

         Due to the terrorist activities of September 11, 2001 and the
resulting adverse effects on commercial aircraft production rates and airline
flight schedules, Triumph believes that its sales for the remainder of the
fiscal year to commercial aircraft OEM's and certain airline customers will
be negatively impacted, but sales to the military of spare parts are expected
to positively impact the Company's sales for the remainder of the year.
However, the net effect of these factors on the Company's consolidated sales
is indeterminable at this time.

         OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the Aviation segment increased
by $0.5 million, or 2.3%, to $22.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002
from $22.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Effective April 1,
2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 142 provides that
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be amortized. In
accordance with SFAS 142, the Company stopped amortizing goodwill effective
April 1, 2001. Had SFAS 142 been effective April 1, 2000, operating income in
the third quarter of fiscal 2001 would have been $23.5 million, or $1.6 million
more than reported.

         The remaining net decrease in operating income over the prior year
period of approximately $1.1 million resulted from a reduction of margin due to
the mix of products sold, offset by operating income generated by EFS.

                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                   (continued)

METALS SEGMENT

         NET SALES. Net sales for the Metals segment decreased by $2.8 million,
or 20.3%, to $10.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $13.6
million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. This decrease was mainly due to
import pricing pressures and lower volume at the Company's electrogalvanized
steel operation.

         OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the Metals segment decreased
by $0.2 million, or 84.0%, for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from the
prior year period. This decrease was mainly due to the decline in net sales.

OVERALL RESULTS

         CORPORATE EXPENSES. Corporate expenses increased by $0.3 million, or
22.6%, to $1.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $1.4 million
for the third quarter of fiscal 2001.

         INTEREST EXPENSE AND OTHER. Interest expense and other decreased by
$2.5 million, or 41.5%, to $3.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002
from $5.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. This decrease was
primarily due to lower interest rates and decreased debt levels from the
follow-on public offering which occurred in March and April of 2001.

         INCOME TAX EXPENSE. The effective tax rate was 31.4% for the third
quarter of fiscal 2002 and 32.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2001.

         NET INCOME. Net income increased to $11.8 million for the third quarter
of fiscal 2002 from $10.0 million for the prior year period. The increase
in net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was primarily attributable to
the earnings of EFS, the adoption of SFAS 142 in fiscal 2002 and the decreased
interest expense offset by the net decrease in earnings from the other Aviation
segment operating units.

NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2000

AVIATION SEGMENT

         NET SALES. Net sales for the Aviation segment increased by $70.3
million, or 19.7%, to $428.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2001
from $357.7 million for the prior year period. This growth in revenue is due to
our increased participation in the expanding regional jet market, namely the
Canadair RJ programs, growth of participation in Airbus programs, primarily the
A319, A320 and A321 programs and certain military programs, most significantly
the C-17 program. Revenue growth was also helped by the positive impact of
license agreements and product lines obtained in fiscal 2001 and from the
acquisition of EFS. Increases in certain Boeing program build rates, namely the
B737 new generation and B777, added to the growth of net sales in the nine
months over the prior year period offset by declines in other programs, most
notably the E-2C.

         Due to the terrorist activities of September 11, 2001 and the
resulting adverse effects on commercial aircraft production rates and airline
flight schedules, Triumph believes that its sales for the remainder of the
fiscal year to commercial aircraft OEM's and certain airline customers will
be negatively impacted, but sales to the military of spare parts are expected
to positively impact the Company's sales for the remainder of the year.
However, the net effect of these factors on the Company's consolidated sales
is indeterminable at this time.

         OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the Aviation segment increased
by $13.3 million, or 22.2%, to $73.4 million for the nine months ended December
31, 2001 from $60.0 million for the prior year period. Effective April 1, 2001,
the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 142 provides that
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be amortized. In
accordance with SFAS 142, the Company stopped amortizing goodwill effective
April 1, 2001. Had SFAS 142 been effective April 1, 2000, operating income for
the nine months ended December 31, 2000 would have been $65.2 million or $5.2
million more than reported.

         During the nine months ended December 31, 2001, the Company incurred
approximately $2.6 million of amortization and royalty expenses related to its
purchase of certain licenses and a product line which it acquired at the end of
the second quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to approximately $0.9 million for the
prior year period.

         The remaining net increase in operating income over the prior year
period of approximately $9.9 million resulted from the increase in revenues and
gross profits, most notably from the programs discussed above as well as the
acquisition of EFS, offset by increases in selling, general and administrative
expenses from the Aviation Segment as a whole.

METALS SEGMENT

         NET SALES. Net sales for the Metals segment decreased by $9.8 million,
or 21.3%, to $36.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2001 from
$46.1 million for the prior year period. This decrease was mainly due to import
pricing pressures and lower volume at the Company's electrogalvanized steel
operation as well as a lower activity level at the Company's structural steel
erection operation.

         OPERATING INCOME. Operating income for the Metals segment decreased by
$1.6 million, or 86.8%, to $0.2 million for the nine months ended December 31,
2001 from $1.8 million from the prior year period. This decrease was mainly due
to the decline in net sales.

OVERALL RESULTS

         CORPORATE EXPENSES. Corporate expenses increased by $1.8 million, or
47.5%, to $5.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2001 from $3.7
million for the prior year period.

         SPECIAL CHARGE. During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company
recorded a special charge totaling $5.0 million related to the write-off of the
development expense on a new aircraft program, which is deemed unlikely to go
into production at this time.

         INTEREST EXPENSE AND OTHER. Interest expense and other decreased by
$6.0 million, or 38.3%, to $9.7 million for the nine months ended December 31,
2001 from $15.7 million for the prior year period. This decrease was primarily
due to lower interest rates and decreased debt levels from the follow-on public
offering, which occurred in March and April of 2001.

         INCOME TAX EXPENSE. The effective tax rate was 34.6% for the nine
months ended December 31, 2001 and 35.4% for the nine months ended December 31,
2000.

         NET INCOME. Net income increased to $34.9 million for the nine months
ended December 31, 2001 from $27.4 million for the prior year period. The
increase in net income was primarily attributable to the earnings of the
Aviation segment operating units, the adoption of SFAS 142 in fiscal 2002 and
the decreased interest expense offset by the special charge.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's working capital needs are generally funded through cash
flows from operations and borrowings under its credit arrangements. The Company
generated $49.4 million of cash flows from operating activities for the nine
months ended December 31, 2001. The Company used $50.4 million in investing
activities and raised $5.5 million in financing activities for the nine months
ended December 31, 2001.

         As of December 31, 2001, $214.4 million was available under the
Company's revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility"), which expires on June
13, 2004. On December 31, 2001, an aggregate amount of approximately $132.9
million was outstanding under the Credit Facility, $128.0 million of which was
accruing interest at LIBOR plus applicable basis points totaling 6.6% per annum,
and $4.9 million of which was accruing interest at the prime rate of 4.75% per
annum. Amounts repaid under the Credit Facility may be reborrowed. The Company
may allocate up to $5.0 million of the available Credit Facility for the
issuance of letters of credit of which $2.7 million was used as of December 31,
2001.

         In March 2001, the Company completed the sale of 3,000,003 shares of
its Common stock for $37.50 per share through an underwritten public offering.
In addition, the Company granted its underwriters of its public offering a
30-day option to purchase additional shares to cover over-allotments. In April
2001, the Underwriters exercised the over-allotment option and the Company sold
an additional 450,000 shares of its Common stock. The net proceeds from the
April 2001 sales of $16.0 million were used to repay long-term debt.

         On August 23, 2001, the Company entered into a loan agreement with the
Illinois Development Finance Authority related to the Illinois Development
Finance Authority Economic Development Bonds, series of 2001 ("the Bonds"). The
proceeds of the Bonds of $7.5 million were used to fund the purchase of the
Company's TriWestern Metals new electro-galvanizing production line. The Bonds
are due to mature on August 1, 2016 and are secured by the equipment. The Bonds
bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR, which at December 31, 2001 was
3.5%.

         Capital expenditures were approximately $21.0 million for the nine
months ended December 31, 2001 primarily for manufacturing machinery and
equipment for the Aviation segment. The Company funded these expenditures
through borrowings under its Credit Facility. The Company expects capital
expenditures to be approximately $40.0 million for its fiscal year ending March
31, 2002. The expenditures are expected to be used mainly to expand capacity at
several facilities.

         On December 15, 1998, the Company announced a program to repurchase up
to 500,000 shares of its common stock. In September 2001, the Company
repurchased a total of 25,000 shares at an average share price of $29.99 for a
total purchase price of $0.7 million. From the inception of the program through
December 31, 2001, the Company has repurchased a total of 269,200 shares for a
total purchase price of $6.7 million.

         The expected future cash flows for the next five years for long term
debt, leases and other obligations are as follows:

                     Management's Discussion And Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations
                                   (continued)


         The Company believes that cash generated by operations and borrowings
under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash
requirements for its current operations. However, the Company has a stated
policy to grow through acquisition and is continuously evaluating various
acquisition opportunities. As a result, the Company currently is pursuing the
potential purchase of a number of candidates. In the event that more than one of
these transactions are successfully consummated, the availability under the
Credit Facility might be fully utilized and additional funding sources may be
needed. There can be no assurance that such funding sources will be available to
the Company on terms favorable to the Company, if at all.
