                         Notes to Condensed Consolidated
                              Financial Statements


Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation


         Material Changes in Financial Condition. Accounts receivable decrease
resulted from lower sales in the third quarter of 2000 versus the fourth quarter
of 1999 combined with decreased days sales outstanding. Note receivable resulted
from the sale of the Prab Robot product line, refer to note 6. Inventory
increase resulted from a combination of additional work in process and stock
inventory.

         Accounts and note payable increase resulted primarily from drawing an
additional $140,000 on the line of credit. Other current liabilities decreased
mainly from paying fiscal year 1999 accrued bonuses and profit sharing combined
with a lower accrual for commissions.

         The Company repurchased all of its outstanding convertible preferred
stock from the State of Michigan Retirement Systems on December 28, 1999 for a
price of $1.63 per share plus accrued dividends of $3,544. This transaction
eliminated the convertible stock and reduced additional paid in capital by
$322,667, the premium paid above book value.

         Material Changes in Results of Operations. Sales in the first nine
months of 2000 were 11% higher than the first nine months of 1999. Higher sales
are the result of increased order activity in the first nine months of 2000
versus a year ago in both the Prab Conveyor and Hapman Conveyor product lines.
New business order bookings have increased 11% in the first nine months of 2000
compared to the same period a year ago.

         Costs of products sold were 64% in the first nine months of 2000
compared to 63% a year ago. Selling, general and administrative expenses were
33% in the first nine months of 2000 compared to 34% a year ago.

         Lower interest expense resulted from low levels of debt until December
28, 1999 when $601,000 was drawn on the line of credit to repurchase the
convertible preferred stock.

         Litigation settlement resulted from the Company's disposal of waste at
a local landfill, refer to note 7.

         The order backlog of $2,940,000 at the end of the third quarter ended
July 31, 2000 compares with $3,055,000 at the end of the previous quarter ended
April 30, 2000 and $3,867,000 at the end of the third quarter a year ago.

                                   PRAB, INC.

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


6.       SALE OF PRAB ROBOT PRODUCT LINE:

         During March 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the
remaining Prab Robot product line assets, including inventory, test equipment,
engineering drawings, job files, vendor information, customer lists, sales
history, sales aids, and five-year convenant not to compete for $5,000 cash, and
a non-interest bearing note of $15,000. The note receivable is payable in two
payments, $5,000 before June 30, 2000, which the company received, and the
balance due no later than March 31, 2001. The book value of the assets sold
totaled approximately $0 due to offsetting inventory reserves for lifo,
obsolescence, and slow moving items.

7.       LITIGATION SETTLEMENT:

         The Company has been involved in a legal action arising out of its
disposal of waste at a local landfill. During April 2000, the Company settled
this matter for a total of $25,000, which was paid in June 2000.
