                               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 generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
reporting. 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 six months ended December 31, 2001,
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 2002.

NOTE B - DEBT

On October 18, 2001, 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, 2004, 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, 2006. As of December 31, 2001, there was $11,380,000 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. The Board of Directors, in December 2000,
declared a 5 for 4 split of the common stock of the Company to be distributed
April 2, 2001, to shareholders of record on February 23, 2001. The stock split
resulted in the distribution of one share of common stock for each four shares
of common stock held on the record date.

The stock split has been retroactively reflected in the accompanying financial
statements.

NOTE D - IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" and No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2001. However, early adoption is permitted. Under the new
rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no
longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance
with the Statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over
their useful lives. The Company adopted the Statements on July 1, 2001, with no
material effect on the Company's financial statements.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Net sales for the Company's second quarter ended December
31, 2001, decreased $3,802,000, or (14.6%), compared with net sales for the
second quarter of the prior year. Net sales for the six month period ended
December 31, 2001, decreased $9,495,000 or (17.8%), compared with the six month
period of the prior year. The decrease is attributable mainly to the decline in
North American automotive production.

                                      - 6 -

<PAGE>

Gross profit for the three month period ended December 31, 2001, decreased
$1,852,000, or (64.3%), as compared with gross profit for the second quarter of
the prior year. Gross profit for the six month period ended December 31, 2001,
decreased $3,373,000, or (57.4%), as compared with the six month period of the
prior year. The decrease is attributable mainly to the decline in North American
automotive production and continual price pressure from our customers.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $98,000, or 6.4%, for the second
quarter ended December 31, 2001, as compared with the second quarter of the
prior year. Selling and administrative expenses decreased $131,000, or (4.2%),
as compared with the six month period ended December 31, 2000. The decrease for
the six month period ended December 31, 2001, is mainly attributable to
decreases in compensation and related expenses.

Other Expenses and Income includes $1,450,000 ($950,000 net of tax) received
from the sale of stock acquired by the Registrant in connection with the
demutualization of an insurance company. The Registrant has insurance with the
company which was a mutual insurance company. The insurance company converted
from a mutual insurance company to a stock insurance company and, in the
conversion, the Registrant received stock of the insurance company which it was
entitled to sell. The Registrant sold all of the stock resulting in the income.
In early January, 2002, subsequent to the close of the second quarter, the
Registrant realized a second cash gain of $460,000, net of tax, as a result of
the sale of stock acquired in connection with the demutualization of a second
insurance company. This gain will be reported in the third quarter ending March
31, 2002.

The Registrant's Shareholders are aware of the Registrant's dependence 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 October, 2001, declared a $.10 per share
quarterly dividend paid January 3, 2002, to shareholders of record December 3,
2001.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: Working capital increased by $1,641,000 from
$19,861,000 at June 30, 2001, to $21,502,000 at December 31, 2001. The increase
is mainly attributable to the reduction in accounts payable, payroll and
employee benefits.

At December 31, 2001, the Company had available $13,620,000 under its bank
credit agreement.

Capital expenditures for the six month period ended December 31, 2001, were
approximately $4.8 million, and, for the year, are expected to approximate $7.3
million, of which approximately $6.6 million has been committed as of December
31, 2001.

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, 2001.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS: The foregoing discussion and analysis contains a
number of "forward looking statements" 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 competition, 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 December 31, 2001, 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.
