1. Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
The information contained in these consolidated financial statements and
notes is unaudited, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of such information have been made. All
such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
been omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated financial statements
included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993.
2. Consolidation Policy
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. Intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
3. Net Income Per Share
Net income per common share is based upon the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during each period: 10,685,434 and 10,682,712 for the
nine month periods and 10,689,916 and 10,679,167 for the third quarter

5. Change in Accounting Principle
In January, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits,"
the cumulative effect of which was accounted for as a change in accounting
principle. This change reduced net income for the first quarter and first
nine months of 1994 by $605,000.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
1. Liquidity and Capital Resources
The current ratio increased to 2.7 to 1 at September 30, 1994, from 2.6 to
1 at December 31, 1993.
The Company does not anticipate incurring significant additional debt and
internal cash flows should be sufficient to generate funds for normal
operations.
2. Results of Operations
Sales during the third quarter and first nine months of 1994 increased by
15.6% and 18.6% over sales for the same period of 1993. Without sales
generated by operations acquired in late 1993, the Company's revenues
would have increased by approximately 3% over the same periods in 1993,
resulting principally from an increase in unit sales.
Cost of goods sold, selling and administrative expenses and interest
expense expressed as a percentage of sales for the third quarter of 1994
were 70.3%, 23.0% and 1.7%, respectively, compared to 70.7%, 23.3% and
1.6% for the third quarter of 1993. The decrease in the percentage for
cost of goods sold is attributable principally to better profit margins
from operations acquired in late 1993. The decrease in the percentage for
selling and administrative expenses reflects the Company's continuing
efforts to control expenses. The increase in the percentage for interest
expense is attributable to additional debt incurred in 1993 to finance the
acquisitions mentioned above.
Cost of goods sold, selling and administrative expenses and interest
expense expressed as a percentage of sales for the first nine months of
1994 were 70.2%, 23.1% and 1.7%, respectively, compared to 70.3%, 23.6%
and 1.3% for the first nine months of 1993. The changes in these
percentages resulted from the same reasons explained above for the third
quarter.
The effective income tax rates for the third quarter and first nine months
of 1994 were 40.5% and 41.0% compared to 36.8% and 35.4% in 1993. These
increases were attributable principally to decreased levels of nontaxable
income, an increase in the federal statutory rate, increased provisions
for state income taxes and to income tax assessments.
