To the Board of Directors
and Shareholders of
Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation
 
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related
consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Corporation) at December
31, 1993 and 1992, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Corporation's management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
 
As discussed in Note 1, in 1992 the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
Benefits other than Pensions and SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
(DOLLARS STATED IN THOUSANDS)
 
Note 1--Accounting Policies:
 
Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation's accounting policies conform to generally accepted
accounting principles. A summary of the significant accounting policies followed
by the Corporation is presented below to assist the reader in evaluating the
financial statements. Certain amounts for preceding periods have been
reclassified for comparability with the 1993 presentation.
 
Consolidation
 
All subsidiaries are wholly owned and are included in the consolidated financial
statements. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. Minority
investments in other entities over which the Corporation exercises significant
influence are accounted for by the equity method.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Securities with purchased original maturities of three months or less are
considered to be cash equivalents. The Corporation maintains cash and cash
equivalents at various financial institutions which may exceed federally insured
amounts.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories are valued at cost, which is lower than market. Cost of domestic raw
materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventories is determined by the
last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Cost of domestic supplies and foreign
inventories is determined by the first-in, first-out method.
 
Property, Plant and Equipment
 
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost with depreciation computed on
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset groups.
Expenditures that extend economic useful lives are capitalized. Gains or losses
are recognized on retirements or disposals. Routine maintenance is charged to
operating results.
 
Postretirement Benefits
 
Effective January 1, 1992, the Corporation changed the method of accounting for
postretirement benefits for its continuing operations in accordance with the
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 106, "Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions." This standard requires that the
expected cost of retiree health and life insurance benefits be charged to
expense during the years in which the employees render service rather than the
Corporation's past practice of recognizing these costs on a cash basis. See Note
8 regarding the impact of adoption.
 
Taxes on Income
Effective January 1, 1992, the Corporation adopted the method of accounting for
income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
SFAS No. 109 changed the criteria for measuring the provision for income taxes
and recording deferred tax assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance
sheet. See Note 11 regarding the impact of adoption.
 
Earnings Per Share
Net income per common share is computed on the basis of a weighted average
number of shares of stock outstanding during each period.
 
Note 2--Discontinued Operations:
Air Handling Group (AHG)
On May 6, 1993, the Corporation sold its air handling operations in the United
States, Canada, and Mexico to Howden Group, PLC for a cash purchase price of
$34,250. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax loss of $15,491.
 
The net sales of the AHG were $32,993 for the short period ended May 6, 1993,
$86,035 for 1992 and $108,049 for 1991. The net sales and related cost and
expenses were excluded from the Corporation's income from continuing operations
for the periods presented.
 
Northwestern Steel and Wire Company (Northwestern)
In 1992, the Corporation announced its intention to dispose of its interest in
Northwestern and consequently accounted for Northwestern as a discontinued
operation.
 
The Corporation originally owned 2,001,000 shares of Northwestern, acquired at a
cost of approximately $6,000 in 1988, representing a 24% interest that was
accounted for on the equity method. As a result of Northwestern's losses and
credit problems, which became apparent during 1991, the Corporation wrote down
its equity investment in 1991 by $5,426 in addition to recording its pro rata
share of Northwestern's losses of $5,577. In 1992, Northwestern found a
substantial new investor and, as part of a resulting recapitalization, the
Corporation sold 794,669 of its shares at $4.00 per share providing proceeds of
$3,179 and a gain on disposal of discontinued business assets of $2,791. In
1993, Northwestern exercised its option to purchase 100,000 of its shares from
the Corporation resulting in proceeds of $400
 
                                                                               9

Note 2--Discontinued Operations
(continued)
 
and a gain of $351. In June 1993, Northwestern completed a public offering of
additional common stock at $8.00 per share, at which time the Corporation's
remaining shares were restricted from sale until December 1993.
 
At December 31, 1993, the Corporation had 1,106,331 shares of Northwestern at a
carrying value of $540. The Corporation intends to sell its shares in an orderly
manner, depending on market conditions. Subsequent to year end, through February
18, 1994, 243,500 shares have been sold, realizing proceeds of $2,779.
Northwestern is traded in the over-the-counter market and as of February 18,
1994 was quoted at $12.875 per share.
 
General
The Corporation periodically reevaluates the adequacy of its accruals for
liabilities of discontinued businesses and the realizability of remaining
assets. The Corporation increased its loss provision relating to previously
discontinued businesses by $5,000 in 1993. The provision is primarily due to
increases in estimates for costs of holding and preparing plant properties for
sale, workmen's compensation and legal costs. In 1992, a gain of $2,791 from the
sale of Northwestern shares was credited to discontinued operations partially
offset by a provision of $2,500. In 1991, a provision of $8,000 was made.
Management believes that the reserves at December 31, 1993, of $15,450 (of which
approximately $4,000 is in current liabilities) are sufficient to cover the
present value of costs anticipated and currently measurable. Payment in respect
of workmen's compensation and retiree health insurance is expected to be made
over an extended number of years. Although the Corporation believes it has
meritorious defenses, the outcome of litigation concerning a discontinued
business remains uncertain and no provision has been made (see Note 13).
 
Note 3--Investments:
On April 2, 1993, Amersham International PLC (Amersham) acquired United States
Biochemical Corporation (Biochem), including the Corporation's interest therein.
The Corporation owned a 20% interest in Biochem, which was accounted for by the
equity method. Amersham is an English public company whose major businesses are
engaged in life science, healthcare and industrial quality and safety assurance.
The proceeds to the Corporation were composed of cash of $6,500 and 212,861
common shares of Amersham valued at $2,300 and a contingent purchase price which
was not assigned a value. The Corporation recorded a gain of $6,490 with respect
to this transaction.
 
On January 19, 1994, Amersham agreed to make an immediate payment to satisfy
fully its obligation with respect to the contingent purchase price. The
Corporation, as a former Biochem shareholder, received cash of $814 and 52,466
shares of Amersham valued at $784 pursuant to this settlement. All of the
settlement proceeds will be recorded as a gain in the first quarter 1994.
 
On January 20, 1994, the Corporation sold 15,740 shares of Amersham for their
approximate carrying value of $240. The remaining 249,587 Amersham shares owned
by the Corporation are subject to sale restrictions with respect to 212,861
shares which cannot be sold prior to April 2, 1994 and 36,726 shares which
cannot be sold prior to April 30, 1996. The market value of the Amersham stock,
which trades in London, England, was equivalent to approximately $15.50 per
share on February 18, 1994.

The reduction in inventories in 1993 was due principally to the inventories
included in the Corporation's sale of the AHG (see Note 2).
 
Inventories valued on the LIFO method are approximately the same as current cost
at December 31, 1993 and 1992. Approximately 83% of the inventory was valued
using the LIFO method in 1993 and 78% in 1992.

Note 5--Borrowing Arrangements
(continued)
 
The Corporation prepaid and terminated its RCA on May 6, 1993, using the
proceeds of the sale of the AHG. On September 30, 1993, the Corporation arranged
for a new RCA, which provides for a four year bank commitment of up to $15,000.
In addition, the Corporation maintains short-term lines of credit of
approximately $7,000.
 
Interest rate terms of the RCA are at the option of the Corporation and are
based principally at the prime rate or the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate or the
Federal Funds Rate plus 75 basis points and can include a combination of the
above. In addition, the Corporation also incurs a facility fee of .25% and a
commitment fee of .125% per year on the unused portion of the available credit
provided by the RCA. The weighted average interest rate, prior to the new RCA,
was 5.1% in 1993 and 5.3% in 1992.
 
The Corporation's RCA requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain
financial covenants including minimum net worth and ratios of interest coverage
and debt to equity. The Corporation is in compliance with the applicable bank
covenants as of December 31, 1993.
 
The industrial development authorities retain security interests relating to the
assets funded by the respective loans. The maturities of the Corporation's
industrial development revenue bonds are $783 in 1994 and $1,350 in 2002.
 
Note 6--Operating Leases:
The Corporation leases office space and certain production machinery and
computer equipment. Operating lease payments were $1,721 in 1993, $948 in 1992
and $1,063 in 1991. Operating lease payments for subsequent years are as
follows:
 

                      
1994         $1,840      1997         $1,378
1995          1,796      1998            948
1996          1,477      Thereafter    1,511

 
Note 7--Employee Pension Plans:
The Corporation has noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering
substantially all of its employees. Generally, the benefits are based on years
of service multiplied by either a fixed amount or a percentage of compensation.
 
The Corporation's funding policy with respect to the corporate-sponsored pension
plans covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) is
to fund each year's pension expense on a basis that satisfies the maximum
amortization periods of ERISA, plus any additional amounts that the Corporation
may determine to be appropriate.
 
The net pension cost for the corporate-sponsored pension plans consists of the
following components:
 


                                 1993       1992       1991

The 1993 sale of the AHG included the transfer of pension assets of $36,298 and
caused an increase in the prepaid pension of $2,600 due to the settlement and
curtailment of employee pension obligations.

Note 8--Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions:
The Corporation provides postretirement health care benefits principally to the
bargaining groups of one subsidiary (the Plan). The Plan covers participants and
their spouses and/or dependents who retire under the existing pension plan on
other than a deferred vested basis and at the time of retirement have also
rendered 15 or more years of continuous service irrespective of age. Other
health care and life insurance benefits are provided to retirees under other
plans no longer being offered by the Corporation. Retiree life insurance is
still being provided to substantially all retirees. Postretirement benefits with
respect to health care are subject to certain Medicare offsets.
 
The Corporation also provides benefits to former employees of discontinued
operations. This obligation had been estimated at the time of disposal and was
included as a component of the liability for discontinued operations. See Note
2--Discontinued Operations.
 
The Corporation adopted SFAS No. 106 effective January 1, 1992, and recorded
the cumulative effect of the accounting change as a one-time, non cash charge
against earnings of $6,638, which was net of a tax benefit of $3,800. This
cumulative adjustment represented the after tax discounted present value of
future retiree health and life insurance benefits attributed to employees'
service rendered prior to that date.
 
The Corporation's postretirement health care and life insurance plans are
unfunded.
 
The Corporation's accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO) consists
of the following:
 


                                           1993        1992

                                         =======     =======

 
Accrued retiree benefits are principally classified in other noncurrent
liabilities. During 1993, approximately $1,600 of accrued retiree benefits were
transferred with the sale of the AHG.
 
The net postretirement benefit cost consists of the following components:
 


                                          1993        1992

                                         ======      =======

 
The following assumptions were utilized for measurement purposes of the APBO.
 


                                               1993       1992

Note 8--Postretirement Benefits Other
Than Pensions (continued)
 
The 1993 change in assumptions will have minimal impact on the annual benefit
expense.
 
A 1% change in the medical inflation rate would impact the APBO and the annual
benefit expense by approximately $1,000 and $300.
 
Note 9--Authorized and Issued Shares:
Each outstanding share of common stock carries one Preference Share Purchase
Right (a Right). The Rights are designed to assure that all shareholders receive
equal treatment in the event of an acquisition of the Corporation or a change in
control. Under certain circumstances, each Right entitles the shareholder to buy
1/100 of a share of Series A Preference Stock at a $36.00 exercise price. The
Rights are exercisable only if a party acquires beneficial ownership of 20% or
more (or offers to acquire 30% or more) of the Corporation's common stock.
 
After the Rights become exercisable, if anyone acquires 30% or more of the
Corporation's stock or assets, merges into the Corporation or engages in certain
other transactions, each Right may be used to purchase shares of the
Corporation's common stock (or, under certain conditions, the acquirer's common
stock) worth twice the exercise price. The Corporation may redeem the Rights,
which expire in November 1998, for five cents per Right under certain
circumstances. At December 31, 1993, there are 3,000,000 shares of unissued
preference stock, of which 100,000 shares have been designated as Series A
Preference Stock for issuance in connection with these Rights.
 
Note 10--Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The Corporation's financial instruments are composed principally of investments
in Northwestern (see Note 2) and Amersham (see Note 3). The fair market value of
these investments, based on quoted trading prices at December 31, 1993, was
approximately $14,300, with carrying values aggregating $2,840.
 
The fair value of other financial instruments classified as current assets or
current liabilities approximates their carrying values due to the short-term
maturities of these instruments.
 
Note 11--Taxes on Income:
As indicated in Note 1, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 109 effective January
1, 1992 and recorded the accounting change as a one-time non cash charge of
$6,200.
 
In 1991, the Corporation accounted for income taxes using Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 11. Accordingly, the tax provision principally reflected a
charge in lieu of income taxes for that year.
 
The (benefit) or provision for taxes on income from continuing operations
consists of the following:
 


                                    1993       1992       1991

The total (benefit) or provision for taxes on income, including the effect of
accounting changes in 1992, consists of the following:
 


                                   1993       1992       1991

The deferred federal tax benefit of $2,900 recorded in 1993 in continuing
operations resulted from an adjustment to the beginning of the year valuation
allowance because of a change in judgment, principally with regard to the
Corporation's ability to realize certain capital gains in the future. These
factors also led management to conclude that a portion of the income tax
benefits attributed to the loss on the sale of the AHG in 1993 should be

loss on disposal of discontinued operations.

The net deferred tax asset for 1993 is principally classified in other current
assets. The net deferred tax liability for 1992 is prinicipally classified in
other noncurrent liabilities.
 
For federal income tax purposes, the Corporation has the following unused

The tax provision reflects the effective rates of the various taxes on income
based on its source (foreign or domestic). The difference between the U.S.
federal income tax statutory rate and the Corporation's effective income tax
rate on continuing operations is as follows:

The deviation in tax provision from the statutory rate in 1993 was due
principally to the use of operating and capital loss carryforwards against the
1993 income from continuing operations. In addition, a tax benefit related to
other loss and credit carryforwards was recognized because of a change in
judgment, principally with regard to the Corporation's ability to realize
certain capital gains in the future.
 
Note 12--Foreign Currency Translation Adjustments:
Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at the current
year-end exchange rate and the statements of income are translated at the
average exchange rate for the year. Gains or losses resulting from translating
foreign currency financial statements are accumulated as a separate component of
shareholders' equity until the entity is sold or substantially liquidated.
 
Cumulated translation adjustments included as a component of shareholders'
equity are as follows:
 


                                                    Increase

Note 13--Litigation:
The Corporation's subsidiary, Vulcan Inc. (Vulcan), is a 50% general partner in
Valley-Vulcan Mold Company (Valley), a partnership, which filed under Chapter 11
of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in 1990. Valley, in connection with its formation,
assumed certain obligations of each of the partners, including Vulcan's
obligation to pay an industrial revenue bond. A portion of the latter
obligation, however, has been paid by the Corporation pursuant to a guaranty
given at the time of Valley's formation, which guaranty was secured by all of
Valley's assets. There is pending against the Corporation and its subsidiary, as
well as others, an adversary proceeding brought by the unsecured creditors
committee to set aside the Corporation's liens, to hold the Corporation and
Vulcan liable for debts of Valley, and for return of certain funds received in
connection with Valley's formation. The trial with respect to this matter was
held the week of October 4, 1993 and post-trial briefs have been filed. The
court has not yet rendered its decision. The Corporation and its legal counsel
believe it has meritorious defenses to this action. Management does not believe
that the resolution of the litigation will have a material effect on the
Corporation's financial position.
 
Note 14--Environmental Matters:
There are various environmental proceedings which involve discontinued
operations. In some of those proceedings, the Corporation has been designated as
a potentially responsible party; however, the Corporation believes that in each
instance it is a de minimis participant based on information known to date.
 
The Corporation has various discontinued operation plant sites which are held
for sale. As part of the reserves for discontinued operations (see Note 2), an
estimated liability of $2,000 has been recorded for anticipated site restoration
costs.
 
While it is not possible to quantify with certainty the potential of actions
regarding environmental matters, in the opinion of management, compliance with
the present environmental protection laws will not have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition of the Corporation.
 
Note 15--Related Party Transactions:
The Corporation bought industrial supplies from, and was paid for administrative
services by, The Louis Berkman Company in the total of $926 in 1993, $590 in
1992 and $469 in 1991. Louis Berkman, Marshall L. Berkman and Robert A. Paul are
shareholders, officers and directors in that company as well as of the
Corporation. Transactions between the parties will take place in 1994.
 
Note 16--Business Segment Information:
The Corporation is in one business segment that manufactures and sells
engineered products, manufactured and sold by Union Electric Steel Corporation,
Aerofin Corporation, Buffalo Pumps, Inc. and New Castle Industries, Inc.
Included in the segment information are U.S. and non-U.S. operations. Non-U.S.
operations consist of a wholly-owned subsidiary in Belgium. The following table
has been adjusted to include continuing operations only with the exception of
identifiable assets which include the AHG in 1992 and 1991 (see Note 2).

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
 
1993 Compared to 1992
Financial Condition
 
As compared to year-end 1992, all balance sheet amounts have changed
significantly due principally to the sale of the Corporation's air handling
group (AHG) to Howden Group, PLC and the sale of the Corporation's investment in
United States Biochemical Corporation (Biochem). See Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements--Notes 2 and 3.
 
Current assets decreased by $27,169,000 due principally to the disposed assets
(other than cash) of the AHG of $28,896,000. Cash and cash equivalents were
increased by $5,984,000 due to cash flows from operating activities and certain
of the proceeds from the sale of the AHG and Biochem after debt liquidation.
 
Current liabilities decreased by $22,134,000 due principally to reductions in
notes payable and current maturities of long-term debt of $13,700,000, resulting
from the application of certain of the proceeds from the sale of the AHG and the
reduction in the current liabilities of $8,991,000 assumed by the Howden Group
in that same transaction.
 
Property, plant and equipment decreased by $30,417,000, of which $24,942,000 was
due to the divestiture of the AHG, with the balance due principally to
provisions for depreciation in excess of capital expenditures and the
reclassification of properties held for sale of $859,000.
 
The AHG transaction created an increase in the prepaid pension of approximately
$2,600,000 due to the settlement and curtailment of the AHG employee pension
obligations, see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 7.
 
Long-term debt was reduced by $25,923,000 principally as a result of prepayment
of the Corporation's revolving credit agreement from the AHG proceeds.
 
The change in translation and other adjustments included in shareholders' equity
of $2,795,000 was principally due to the disposition of the Canadian and Mexican
operations of the AHG; see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 12.
 
1993 Compared to 1992
Operations
 
In 1993, the Corporation sold its air handling group (AHG) to Howden Group, PLC
(see Notes to Financial Statements--Note 2). The operating results were restated
to reflect continuing operations.
 
Net sales for 1993 of $108,846,000 compare with $104,308,000 for 1992. Sales of
domestic operations increased 10.0%. However, shipments of the Corporation's
Belgian roll-making operation were $4,460,000 lower than in the prior year
reflecting weaker economic conditions in Europe. The order backlog at December
31, 1993 of $56,300,000 is $8,400,000 lower than at the end of the prior year.
Management believes that the reduction principally reflects shorter lead-time
ordering patterns of customers.
 
The cost of products sold, excluding depreciation, in relationship to net sales
was 73.0% in 1993 and 70.4% in 1992. The increase in 1993 was in part due to
reduced margins as a result of continuing competitive pricing pressures. In
addition, planned inventory reductions resulted in lower production levels and
the consequential lower fixed cost absorption.
 
Selling and administrative expenses were 6.5% lower in 1993. Selling expenses in
particular benefitted from elimination of charges for services previously
provided by the AHG. This was in part offset by an increase in the Corporation's
volume of commissionable sales. Administrative expenses were lower as a result
of increased fee income received for services provided by the Corporation to
others.
 
Depreciation expense of $5,166,000 in 1993 compares with $5,084,000 in 1992.
 
Due to the above, income from operations was $5,699,000 in 1993 and $5,977,000
in 1992. The reduction in income from operations for 1993 occurred even though
sales increased for the period due principally to the increase in the product
cost relationship to sales discussed above and lower earnings from the Belgian
roll-making operation.
 
For a discussion of the gain on sale of Biochem in 1993, see Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 3.
 
Interest expense was $926,000 in 1993 compared with $2,424,000 in 1992. The
reduction in 1993 was due principally to the use of proceeds from dispositions
to prepay bank debt.
 
Other income (expense)--net was $(671,000) in 1993 as compared with $(718,000)
in 1992. Included in other income (expense)--net are charges of $(1,000,000) in
1993 and $(800,000) in 1992 for the
16

accretion, from present values, on long-term discontinued business reserves.
Also reflected in 1993 are interest earnings from invested cash balances.
 
For a discussion concerning the benefit for taxes on income in 1993, see Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 11.
 
For a discussion regarding discontinued operations, see Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements--Note 2.
 
For a discussion with respect to the cumulative effect of accounting changes,
see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Notes 1, 8 and 11.
 
As a result of all of the above, the Corporation had a net loss of $4,516,000 in
1993 compared with a net loss of $14,764,000 in 1992.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As previously discussed, the Corporation received $34,250,000 and $6,500,000
cash, respectively, from the sales of the AHG and its investment in Biochem (see
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Notes 2 and 3). The sale of the AHG
was a stock transaction which included cash balances of businesses sold of
$3,981,000, resulting in net cash to the Corporation of $30,269,000. The
proceeds were principally applied to prepay bank debt.
 
Net cash flows from operating activities were positive for 1993 at $12,230,000
and compare with positive cash flows of $3,324,000 for 1992. Included in 1993
were cash inflows from working capital changes net of payments associated with
discontinued operations of $3,700,000, compared with a net cash outflow of
$5,800,000 in 1992.
 
The net cash flows from investing activities of $35,090,000 in 1993 were due to
sale of the AHG and Biochem, previously discussed, partially offset by purchases
of equipment.
 
Cash outflows with respect to financing activities of $41,300,000 reflect the
application of proceeds from the AHG and Biochem transactions to the prepayment
of bank debt and dividends.
 
As a result of all of the above, cash and cash equivalents increased by
$5,984,000 in 1993.
 
Capital expenditures for 1993 totaled $2,410,000 compared with $3,432,000 for
1992. The capital expenditures include payments with respect to the AHG of
$434,000 in 1993 and $754,000 in 1992. The Corporation entered into operating
leases for certain production machinery with a total value of $2,800,000 in 1993
and $2,900,000 in 1992. Depreciation expense for continuing operations was
$5,166,000 for 1993 and $5,084,000 for 1992. Capital appropriations carried
forward from 1993, which principally comprise normal replacements, upkeep of
assets and improvements, total $1,157,000.
 
The Corporation maintains short-term lines of credit and a revolving credit
agreement in excess of the cash needs of its businesses. The total available at
December 31, 1993 was $22,000,000--see Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements--Note 5.
 
See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Notes 2 and 3 for discussion
relative to the stock held in Northwestern Steel and Wire and Amersham.
 
With respect to environmental concerns, the Corporation has been named a
potentially responsible party at several sites by federal, state and local
authorities. The Corporation has accrued for costs of remedial actions it would
likely be required to take. In addition, the Corporation has provided for
environmental clean-up costs related to preparing for sale its discontinued
business facilities. While it is not possible to quantify with certainty the
potential of actions regarding environmental matters, particularly any future
remediation and other compliance efforts, in the opinion of management,
compliance with the present environmental protection laws will not have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Corporation (also see
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 14).
 
The nature and scope of the Corporation's business bring it into regular contact
with a variety of persons, businesses and government agencies in the ordinary
course of business. Consequently, the Corporation and its subsidiaries from time
to time are named in various legal actions. The Corporation does not anticipate
that its financial condition will be materially affected by the costs of known,
pending or threatened litigation (also see Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements--Note 13).
 
Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 1994, corporations are required to adopt SFAS No. 112,
"Employers Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." The adoption of this
statement in 1994 will not have a significant effect on the Corporation's income
or financial position.
 
Effective January 1, 1994, corporations are required to adopt SFAS No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain
                                                                              17

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
(continued)
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." The new standard will change the
carrying basis for certain equity and debt securities. The Corporation intends
to adopt SFAS 115 in 1994, consistent with the required adoption period.
 
Among its provisions, SFAS 115 requires certain equity securities to be
classified as "trading securities" with unrealized gains and losses included in
earnings. The Corporation maintains no trading securities. Certain other equity
securities are to be classified as "available-for-sale" and reported at fair
value, with unrealized gains and losses to be shown as a separate component of
shareholders' equity. The Northwestern and Amersham shares held by the
Corporation will be classified as "available for sale" (see Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 10).
 
1992 Compared to 1991
Operations
The results for 1992 and 1991 were restated due to the sale of the AHG.
Accordingly, the comparisons below are to continuing operations.
 
Net sales for 1992 of $104,308,000 compare with $113,299,000 for 1991. The 8.0%
reduction of $8,991,000 results from continued weakness in the markets served by
the Corporation. The Corporation was affected by reduction in demand from
domestic steel producers. The order backlog at December 31, 1992 of $64,700,000
is slightly higher than at the end of 1991 of $62,100,000. The Corporation's
business is cyclical in nature and tends to lag a general upturn in the economy
by a considerable period of time.
 
The cost of products sold, excluding depreciation, in relationship to net sales
was 70.4% in 1992 and compares with 69.0% in 1991. The erosion of margins
principally results from the reduction in sales and severe pricing competition
that impacted the ability of the Corporation to recover cost increases. An
additional expense of $800,000, approximating 0.7% of margin, was charged to
cost of products sold in 1992 for health and life insurance benefits as a result
of adoption of SFAS 106 (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Note
8).
 
Selling and administrative expenses were $19,861,000 in 1992 and $19,706,000 in
1991.
 
Depreciation expense of $5,084,000 in 1992 compares with $5,634,000 in 1991. The
decrease in 1992 was due principally to a change in accounting estimate of the
useful lives of machinery and equipment.
 
Due to the above, income from operations was $5,977,000 in 1992 and $9,799,000
in 1991.
 
In 1991, the Corporation incurred a further loss on the final disposition of its
investment in Midway Airlines, Inc. of $1,292,000.
 
Interest expense in 1992 was reduced by $1,103,000, to $2,424,000, due
principally to lower interest rates in 1992.
 
For a discussion concerning the cumulative effects of accounting changes, see
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Notes 8 and 11.
 
For a discussion concerning discontinued operations, see Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements-- Note 2.
 
As a result of all of the above, the Corporation had a net loss of $14,764,000
for 1992, compared to a net loss of $13,668,000 in 1991.
 
Statement of Cash Flows
Net cash flow from operating activities decreased to $3,324,000 in 1992 from
$8,182,000 in 1991. This decrease was attributable to lower operating income
experienced during 1992. Net cash outflow from working capital changes and
payments associated with discontinued operations was $3,400,000 in 1992 compared
to $7,745,000 in 1991.
 
The cash flow from investing activities of $357,000 principally was composed of
proceeds from the sale of shares in Northwestern Steel and Wire Company (see
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-- Note 2) of $3,179,000 plus $610,000
of other items, partially offset by purchases of equipment of $3,432,000.
 
The cash outflow from financing activities consisted of repayment of debt of
$1,983,000 and dividend payments of $2,875,000.
 
After favorable exchange rate changes on cash of $155,000, the effect of the
above was to decrease cash and cash equivalents by $1,022,000.
