                               FEDERAL SCREW WORKS
               NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)



NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial reporting. Application of these accounting principles
requires the Company's management to make estimates about the future resolution
of existing uncertainties. As a result, actual results could differ from these
estimates. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best
estimates and judgments of the amounts and disclosures included in the financial
statements, giving due regard to materiality. The Company does not believe there
is a great likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under
different conditions or using different assumptions pertaining to the accounting
policies described below. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three months
ended September 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2003.



NOTE B - DEBT

On October 7, 2002, Comerica Bank approved a one year extension of the Company's
$25,000,000 Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement. Under the agreement the
Company has the option to convert borrowings thereunder (classified as long-term
debt) to a term note through October 31, 2005, the expiration date of the
agreement. Payments under the term note, if the conversion option is exercised,
would be made quarterly and could extend to October 31, 2007. As of September
30, 2002, there was $11,615,000 in outstanding borrowings under the Revolving
Credit and Term Loan Agreement.



NOTE C - DIVIDENDS

Cash dividends per share are based on the number of shares outstanding at the
respective dates of declaration.



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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Net sales for the Company's first quarter ended September
30, 2002, increased $1,662,000, or 7.7%, compared with net sales for the first
quarter of the prior year. The increase is attributable mainly to the increase
in North American automotive production compared to the prior year. Also the
first quarter ended September 30, 2001, was adversely affected by the events of
September 11, 2001.

Gross profit for the three month period ended September 30, 2002, increased
$885,000, or 59.9%, as compared with the first quarter of the prior year. The
increase is attributable mainly to the increase in North American automotive
sales and production.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $213,000, or 16.0%, for the first
quarter ended September 30, 2002, as compared with the first quarter of the
prior year. The increase is mainly attributable to increases in compensation and
related expenses.
                                      - 6 -




The Registrant is dependent upon sales to the two largest U.S. automobile
manufacturers, a condition that has existed for at least fifty years. Although
the Registrant has purchase orders from such customers, such purchase orders
generally provide for supplying the customer's requirements for a particular
model or model year rather than for manufacturing a specific quantity of
products. The loss of any one of such customers or significant purchase orders
could have a material adverse effect on the Registrant. These customers are also
able to exert considerable pressure on component suppliers to reduce costs,
improve quality and provide additional design and engineering capabilities.
There can be no assurance that the additional costs of increased quality
standards, price reductions or additional capabilities required by such
customers will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or
results of operations of the Registrant.

DIVIDENDS: The Board of Directors, in August 2002, declared a $.10 per share
quarterly dividend, and an extra $.70 per share dividend, both payable October
1, 2002, to shareholders of record September 6, 2002.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: Working capital increased by $4,102,000 from
$20,411,000 at June 30, 2002, to $24,513,000 at September 30, 2002. The increase
is mainly attributable to the reduction in accounts payable, and payroll and
employee benefits.

At September 30, 2002, the Company had available $13,385,000 under its bank
credit agreement.

Capital expenditures for the three month period ended September 30, 2002, were
approximately $1.5 million, and, for the year, are expected to approximate $6.8
million, of which approximately $3.9 million has been committed as of September
30, 2002.

There have been no material changes concerning environmental matters since those
reported in the Registrant's Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2002.


FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS: The foregoing discussion and analysis with regard to
the Registrant's expected capital expenditures contains a "forward looking
statement" within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended, with respect to expectations for future
periods which are subject to various uncertainties, including the loss of, or
reduction in business with, the Company's principal customers, work stoppages,
strikes and slowdowns at the Company's facilities and those of its customers;
adverse changes in economic conditions generally and those of the automotive
industry, specifically.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's market risk is limited to interest rate risk on its revolving
credit and term loan agreement. At September 30, 2002, the carrying amounts
reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable,
debt and investments approximate fair value. Accordingly, management believes
this risk is not material.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's
management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure

                                      - 7 -





controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information
relating to the Company required to be disclosed in the Company's periodic SEC
reports. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal
controls or in other factors which could significantly affect internal controls
subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
