JLG INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 31, 2001
(in thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)


BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 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 information and notes
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.

Interim results for the six month period ended January 31, 2001 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
as a whole. For further information, refer to consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended July 31, 2000.

INVENTORIES AND COST OF SALES

A precise inventory valuation under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method can
only be made at the end of each fiscal year; therefore, interim LIFO inventory
valuation determinations, including the determination at January 31, 2001, must
necessarily be based on management's estimate of expected fiscal year-end
inventory levels and costs.

Inventories consist of the following:

exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the capital stock.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to personal injury and property damage litigation arising
out of incidents involving the use of its products. The Company's insurance
program for fiscal year 2001 is comprised of a self-insured retention of $7
million for domestic claims, insurance coverage of $2 million for international
claims and catastrophic coverage for domestic and international claims of $75
million in excess of the retention and international primary coverage. The
Company contracts with an independent firm to provide claims handling and
adjustment services. The Company's estimates with respect to claims are based on
internal evaluations of the merits of individual claims and the reserves
assigned by the Company's independent firm. The methods of making such estimates
and establishing the resulting accrued liability are reviewed frequently, and
any adjustments resulting therefrom are reflected in current earnings. Claims
are paid over varying periods, which generally do not exceed five years. Accrued
liabilities for future claims are not discounted.

With respect to all product liability claims of which the Company is aware,
accrued liabilities of $16.4 million and $16.1 million were established at
January 31, 2001 and July 31, 2000, respectively. While the Company's ultimate
liability may exceed or be less than the amounts accrued, the Company believes
that it is unlikely that it would experience losses that are materially in
excess of such reserve amounts. As of January 31, 2001 and




                                       6

July 31, 2000, there were no insurance recoverables or offset implications and
there were no claims by the Company being contested by insurers.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTERS OF FISCAL 2001 AND 2000

Sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 were $230.1 million, up 11% over the
$206.9 million in the comparable year-ago period. Included in the fiscal 2001
sales was $16.8 million associated with a sale-leaseback of rental fleet assets.
Machinery sales for the current year quarter were $191.6 million an increase of
$13.8 million, or 8%, from the $177.8 million for the comparable prior year
quarter. The increase is principally attributable to strong aerial work platform
sales. Equipment Services sales for the current year quarter were $38.5 million
an increase of $9.4 million, or 32%, from the $29.1 million for the comparable
prior year quarter. The second quarter of fiscal 2001 included the
sale-leaseback of rental fleet assets, while the same quarter of fiscal 2000
benefited from a large sale by Equipment Services.

Domestic sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 were $168.8 million, up 13%
from the comparable year-ago period sales of $148.9 million. International sales
for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 were $61.3 million, up 6% from the
corresponding quarter of the previous year.

Gross profit margin was 18.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to
the prior year quarter's 18.7%. The principal contributors to this reduction
were the strengthening of the U. S. dollar against foreign currencies,
particularly the Euro, British pound and Australian dollar, competitive pricing
pressures and the effect of the rental fleet sale-leaseback transaction. These
reductions were partially offset by ongoing cost savings initiatives and a more
favorable product mix.

Selling, administrative and product development expenses as a percent of sales
improved to 12.3% for the current year second quarter from 12.7% for the prior
year second quarter. In terms of dollars, the increase was principally due to
increased bad debt expense and pension charges resulting from early retirements.

Miscellaneous expense included currency gains of $1.9 million in second quarter
of fiscal 2001 compared to losses of $898 thousand in the corresponding prior
year period.

The effective tax rate was 37% for the current and prior year quarters.

RESULTS FOR THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF FISCAL 2001 AND 2000

Sales for the first six months of fiscal 2001 were $462.8 million, up 9% over
the $424.9 million in the comparable year-ago period. Machinery sales for the
first six months of fiscal 2001 were $401.3 million an

   10

increase of $41.4 million, or 12%, from the $359.9 million for the comparable
prior year period. The increase is principally attributable to strong aerial
work platform sales. Equipment Services sales for the current year six months
were $61.5 million a decrease of $3.4 million, or 5%, from the $64.9 million for
the comparable prior year period. The first six months of fiscal 2001 included
the sale-leaseback of rental fleet assets, while the same period of fiscal 2000
benefited from several large sales by Equipment Services.

Domestic sales for the first six months of fiscal 2001 were $351.9 million, up
13% from the comparable year-ago period sales of $311.8 million. International
sales for the first six months of fiscal 2001 were $110.9 million, down 2% from
the corresponding period of the previous year primarily due to the strong U. S.
dollar.

The Company's sales by product (in thousands) consisted of the following for the
six months ended January 31:

Gross profit margin was 20.3% for the first six months of fiscal 2001 compared
to the prior year period's 21.5%. The decrease was mainly due to the same
factors as discussed in the second quarter comparison.

Selling, administrative and product development expenses as a percent of sales
improved to 11.7% for the first six months of fiscal 2001 from 12.5% for the
comparable prior year period as the Company leveraged slightly higher expenses
in fiscal 2001 over a larger sales base. In terms of dollars, the increase was
mainly due to the same factors as discussed in the second quarter comparison.

The increase in interest charges of $1.2 million for the first six months of
fiscal 2001 compared to the same period of last year was principally due to
increased investment in inventory and receivables.

Miscellaneous expense included currency losses of $258 thousand in first six
months of fiscal 2001 compared to $1.0 million in the corresponding prior year
period. The current year period also benefited from a $1.0 million gain on the
sale of the Company's interest in its Brazilian joint venture.

The effective tax rate was 37% for the current and prior year periods.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Cash flow used in operating activities was $127.1 million for the first six
months of fiscal 2001 versus $88.6 million in the comparable period of fiscal
2000. Comparing January 31, 2001 to January 31, 2000, inventory increased
approximately $40 million as a result of equipment built ahead of the
peak-demand season. The increase in receivables reflects higher business and
financing activities and extended payment terms which were partially offset by
$47.5 million in accounts receivable securitization.

Investing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2001 provided $1.2
million of cash compared to a use of $1.1 million for last year's comparable
period. The improvement in cash provided by investing activities for the first
six months of fiscal 2001 resulted principally from proceeds related to the
rental fleet sale-leaseback transaction and the sale of the Company's interest
in its Brazilian joint venture. In addition, the




                                       8
   11

comparable period of fiscal 2000 included one-time capital expenditures for new
facilities in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania and Orrville, Ohio.

Financing activities provided cash of $115.7 million for the first six months of
fiscal 2001 compared to $79.1 million for the first six months of fiscal 2000.
The increase in cash provided from financing activities largely resulted from
higher borrowings under the Company's credit facilities due to the working
capital investments discussed above. In conjunction with the Company's share
repurchase program, the first six months of fiscal 2001 included the repurchase
of 1.7 million shares at an aggregate cost of $22.2 million.

At January 31, 2001, the Company had unused credit lines totaling $138 million.
In order to meet its future cash requirements, the Company intends to use
internally generated funds and to borrow under its credit facilities. Based on
its forecasting process, the Company believes that these resources will be
sufficient to meet its cash requirements over the next 12 months.

In addition to measuring its cash flow generation and usage based upon the
operating, investing, and financing classifications included in the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows, the Company also measures its free cash flow. Free
cash flow, a measure commonly employed by the financial community, is defined by
the Company as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures
including equipment held for rental, plus proceeds from the disposal of assets
and unrealized currency gains or losses. During the first six months of fiscal
2001, the Company had negative free cash flow of $126.0 million compared to
negative free cash flow of $89.2 million for the corresponding period in fiscal
2000 reflecting the strong seasonality of the second quarter and inventory built
ahead of the peak-season demand.

The Company's exposure to product liability claims is discussed in the note
entitled Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements of this report. Future results of operations, financial
condition and liquidity may be affected to the extent that the Company's
ultimate exposure with respect to product liability varies from current
estimates.

OUTLOOK

This Outlook section and other parts of this Management's Discussion and
Analysis contain forward-looking information and involve certain risks and
uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results. Certain
important factors that, in some cases have affected, and in the future could
affect, the Company's results of operations and that could cause such future
results of operations to differ are described in "Cautionary Statements Pursuant
to the Securities Litigation Reform Act" which is an exhibit to this report.

Based on the first six months actual results together with prospects of lower
interest rates and currency moderation, management reiterates its previously
stated range of $1.55 to $1.60 in earnings per share for fiscal 2001 with a
range for the third quarter of $.46 to $.50 per share.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates, which could affect its future results of operations and
financial condition. The Company manages exposure to these risks principally
through its regular operating and financing activities.

While the Company is exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of its
outstanding debt, the Company does not currently utilize any derivative
financial instruments related to its interest rate exposure. Total interest
bearing liabilities at January 31, 2001 consisted of $232 million in variable
rate borrowing, $48 million in accounts receivable securitization and $4 million
in fixed rate borrowing. At the current level of variable rate borrowing, a
hypothetical 10% increase in interest rates would decrease pre-tax current year
earnings by




                                       9
   12

approximately $2.0 million on an annual basis. A hypothetical 10% change in
interest rates would not result in a material change in the fair value of the
Company's fixed rate debt.

The Company does not have a material exposure to financial risk from using
derivative financial instruments to manage its foreign currency exposures. For
additional information, reference is made to Item 7 in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2000.


INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT


The Board of Directors
JLG Industries, Inc.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of JLG
Industries, Inc. (the "Company") as of January 31, 2001, and the related
condensed consolidated statements of income for the three month and six-month
periods ended January 31, 2001 and 2000 and condensed consolidated statements of
cash flows for the six-month periods ended January 31, 2001 and 2000. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will be performed
for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements referred to above for them to
be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, the consolidated balance sheet of JLG Industries,
Inc. as of July 31, 2000, and the related consolidated statements of income,
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented
herein), and in our report dated September 6, 2000, we expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet
as of July 31, 2000, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to
the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
