CASCADE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1Description of Business

Cascade Corporation is an international company engaged in the manufacture of materials handling products that are widely used on
industrial fork lift trucks and, to a lesser extent, construction, mining and agricultural vehicles. Accordingly, our sales are largely dependent on sales of lift trucks and replacement parts. Our sales are made throughout the world. We are
headquartered in Fairview, Oregon, employing approximately 1,700 people and maintaining operations in 16 countries outside the United States.

Note 2Interim Financial Information

The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the interim periods ended April 30, 2010 and 2009 are unaudited. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for those interim periods. Results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, and these financial statements do not contain the detail or footnote disclosures concerning accounting policies and other matters that
would be included in full fiscal year financial statements. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2010.

Note 3Segment Information

Our operating units have several similar economic characteristics and attributes, including products, distribution patterns and classes of
customers. As a result, we aggregate our operating units into four geographic operating segments related to the manufacturing, distribution and servicing of material handling load engagement products. We evaluate the performance of each of our
operating segments based on income or loss before interest, foreign currency gains or losses and income taxes. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies
contained in Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2010.

Note 6Share-Based Compensation Plans

We have granted three types of share-based awards: stock appreciation rights (SARS), restricted stock and stock options, under our
share-based compensation plans to officers, key managers and directors. The grant prices are established by our Board of Directors Compensation Committee at the time the awards are granted. We issue new common shares upon the exercise of all
awards.

SARS provide the holder the right to receive an amount, payable in our common shares, equal to the excess of the
market value of our common shares on the date of exercise (intrinsic value) over the base price at the time the right was granted. The base price may not be less than the market price of our common shares on the date of grant. All SARS
vest ratably over a four year period and have a term of ten years.

Our SARS plan also permits the issuance of restricted
shares of common stock. Upon the granting of restricted stock, common shares are issued to the recipient, but the shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, or disposed of by the recipient until vested. Regardless of vesting, restricted
shares have full voting rights and any dividends declared will be paid to the restricted stock recipient. Restricted shares granted to officers vest ratably over a period of three years. Restricted shares granted to directors prior to June 1,
2010, vest ratably over a period of four years and grants after May 31, 2010 vest after one year. The number of restricted shares issued to directors is based on the market value of our shares on the date of grant.

The SARS plan provides for the issuance of a maximum of 750,000 shares of common stock upon the exercise of SARS or issuance of
restricted stock. As of April 30, 2010, a total of 282,000 shares of common stock have been issued under the SARS plan, which includes 96,000 shares of restricted stock. An additional 102,000 shares of common stock would be issued if all
outstanding SARs at April 30, 2010 were exercised, based on the end of day share price of $34.86 on April 30, 2010.

Stock options provide the holder the right to receive our common shares at an established
price. We have reserved 1,400,000 shares of common stock under our stock option plan. As of April 30, 2010, a total of 1,130,000 shares have been issued upon the exercise of stock options. No additional stock options can be granted under the
terms of the plan. All outstanding stock options are fully vested and have a term of ten years.

A summary of the plans

We calculate share-based compensation cost for stock
options and SARs using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

We calculate share-based compensation cost for restricted
stock by multiplying the fair market value of our common shares on the grant date by the number of restricted shares expected to vest. Share-based compensation is expensed ratably over the applicable vesting period. Additional information regarding
the assumptions used to calculate fair value of our share-based compensation plans is presented in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2010.

Note 7Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental Matters

We
are subject to environmental laws and regulations, which include obligations to remove or mitigate environmental effects of past disposal and release of certain wastes and substances at various sites. We record liabilities for affected sites when
environmental assessments indicate probable cleanup and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Other than for costs of assessments themselves, the timing and amount of these liabilities is determined based on the estimated costs of remediation
activities and our commitment to a formal plan of action, such as an approved remediation plan. The reliability and precision of the loss estimates are affected by numerous factors, such as different stages of site evaluation and reevaluation of the
degree of remediation required. We adjust our liabilities as new remediation requirements are defined, as information becomes available permitting reasonable estimates to be made and to reflect new and changing facts.

It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term and the related adjustments to environmental liabilities
may have a material impact on our operating results. Unasserted claims are not currently reflected in our environmental remediation liabilities. It is also reasonably possible that these claims may also have a material impact on our operating
results if asserted. We cannot predict when the additional expense will be necessary or the amount of any additional loss or range of loss that may reasonably be possible.

Our specific environmental matters consist of the following:

Fairview, Oregon

In
1996, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality issued two Records of Decision affecting our Fairview, Oregon manufacturing facility. The Records of Decision required us to initiate remedial activities related to the cleanup of groundwater
contamination at and near the facility. Remediation activities have been conducted since 1996 and current estimates provide for some level of activity to continue through 2019. Costs of certain remediation activities at the facility are shared with
The Boeing Company, with Cascade paying 70% of these costs. The recorded liability for ongoing remediation activities at our Fairview facility was $2.9 million and $3.2 million at April 30, 2010 and January 31, 2010,
respectively.

Springfield, Ohio

In March 2010 we signed a Facility Lead Corrective Action Agreement (Action Agreement) with the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), which outlines a more comprehensive remediation plan at our Springfield, Ohio facility. We had previously been performing our remediation activities under a consent order signed in 1994, which had required the installation of remediation
systems for the cleanup of groundwater contamination. The Action Agreement specifies an action plan that would allow us to be more proactive in our environmental cleanup efforts. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 we accrued an additional $1.1
million of costs related to remediation activities related to the Action Agreement. The current estimate is that the remediation activities will continue through 2019. The recorded liability for ongoing remediation activities in Springfield was $1.9
million at April 30, 2010 and January 31, 2010.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation, in addition to the environmental matters previously discussed, arising in the
ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, management does not expect the ultimate costs to be material to our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Basic earnings per share
is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted weighted average common shares includes the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options and stock appreciation rights
and the amount of unvested restricted stock. Unexercised SARs totaling 594,000 awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended April 30, 2010 because they were antidilutive. The assumed exercise of
stock awards and vesting of restricted stock was not included in the calculation for the quarter ended April 30, 2009 as the impact would have been antidilutive.

Note 11Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Subsequent events - In February 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that amended the May 2009 subsequent events guidance
described above to (1) eliminate the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose the date through which it has evaluated subsequent events, (2) clarify the period through which conduit bond obligors must evaluate subsequent events, and
(3) refine the scope of the disclosure requirements for reissued financial statements. We adopted this new accounting guidance for our financial statements for the quarter ended April 30, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have an
impact on our financial statements.

Note 12Warranty Obligations

We record a liability on our consolidated balance sheet for costs related to warranties with the sales of our products. This liability is
estimated through historical customer claims, product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Our warranty obligations, which are recorded in other accrued expenses on the consolidated
balance sheets, were as follows (in thousands):

Note 14Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 includes tax expense of $555,000 as a result of changes in the tax
treatment of Medicare Part D subsidy receipts under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. In the past, Medicare Part D subsidy receipts have been non-taxable, however payments received after 2012 will be subject to federal income
taxes.

The provision for income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 was primarily a result of taxes due in countries
where we generated income. We were unable to realize a tax benefit in several European countries where we incurred losses.

As
of April 30, 2010 our liability for uncertain tax positions was $1.3 million which included an accrual for interest and penalties of $225,000. There were no material changes in uncertain tax positions during the current period.

We are subject to taxation primarily in the U.S., Canada and China, as well as various state and other foreign jurisdictions. The
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) recently completed its review of our U.S. income tax returns for fiscal years 2004 - 2007. The IRS proposed adjustments of approximately $5 million related to interest deductions reported on tax returns for the 2004
and 2005 tax years. If sustained by the IRS, these adjustments would result in an additional federal and state tax liability of approximately $1.8 million. We are in the process of appealing this issue with the IRS and have determined that it is
more-likely-than-not that we will prevail on this issue. As such, no amount has been recorded in our financial statements as of April 30, 2010 related to this matter. As of April 30, 2010, we remain subject to examination in various state
and foreign jurisdictions for the 2004 - 2009 tax years.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our businesses globally manufacture and distribute material handling load engagement products primarily for the lift truck industry and to
a lesser extent the construction industry. We operate in four geographic segments: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and China. All references to fiscal periods are defined as the period ended April 30, 2009 (fiscal 2010) and the period ended
April 30, 2010 (fiscal 2011).

RECENT TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS

Global Economic & Lift Truck Market Conditions

The financial and banking crisis that began in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 triggered a significant deterioration in global economic
conditions, which included depressed demand for lift trucks and our products that continued through the end of fiscal 2010. We believe we are beginning to see economic recovery with increased sales in all regions during the first quarter of fiscal
2011. In addition, the lift truck market appears to be recovering based on order and shipment rates. However, due to market volatility experienced over the last few years, it is difficult to predict with certainty how quickly and to what extent the
markets will recover. Based on the current conditions, we believe the following:



| |  |  | North America has begun to recover and will increase at a rate between 5-10% for the remainder of the year.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Europe has begun to recover at a slow pace. However, it is uncertain how the current debt crisis existing for several European Union countries will
impact European economies or the lift truck market.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Asia Pacific market will experience growth during the remainder of fiscal 2011 at a rate between 10-15%.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The market in China will continue to be strong but down from the shipment levels in the first quarter.

Europe Restructuring

Beginning in fiscal 2009, we took a number of steps to change the structure of our European business and improve operational efficiencies
with the goal of achieving a sustainable level of operating income. These steps included closing production facilities in Germany, The Netherlands and France, changes in management personnel, other workforce reductions within Europe and movement of
certain production activities to Italy.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we have seen progress as a result of our
restructuring efforts, as we experienced our highest gross profit margin percentage since fiscal 2009. However, our results still fell short of our expectations due to the write down of obsolete inventory, high freight costs, competitive pricing of
certain products and costs to transfer the warehousing and delivery of our forks in France and Germany to a third party provider.

We are continuing to look for further opportunities to improve our European operations and believe that over the long-term our objective
of sustained profitability in Europe will be met.

The following is an
overview for the first quarter of fiscal 2011. All percentage comparisons to the prior year exclude the impact of foreign currencies:



| |  |  | Consolidated net sales increased 19% due to higher sales volumes as a result of improving economic conditions and a strong lift truck market. Global
lift truck shipments increased 17% compared to the prior year. We have found that while lift truck industry shipments provide an indication of the long-term direction of our business activity, changes in our quarterly net sales do not correspond
directly to the quarterly percentage changes in lift truck shipments or orders.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our consolidated gross profit percentage increased from 19% to 29% during fiscal 2011, primarily as a result of improved absorption of fixed and
variable costs due to increased sales volumes in all regions and the benefit of cost cutting measures implemented during fiscal 2010.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We incurred restructuring costs of $4.8 million during fiscal 2010, primarily as a result of the closure of our fork facility in France.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The income tax expense during fiscal 2010 was a result of taxes due in countries where we generated income. We were unable to realize a tax benefit in
several European countries where we incurred losses.

year and a reduction of overhead costs as a result of headcount reductions and other cost cutting measures implemented in the prior year.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | During the first quarter of fiscal 2011 we experienced the highest gross profit margin in Europe since fiscal 2009 as a result of our recent
restructuring efforts, which included closing production facilities in Germany, The Netherlands and France, changes in management personnel, other workforce reductions within Europe and the movement of certain production activities to Italy.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Selling and administrative costs decreased by 18% due to lower personnel, selling and other general costs as a result of our restructuring efforts.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Restructuring costs in the prior year were primarily a result of the closure of our fork manufacturing facility in France. These costs included
employee wage and benefit costs of $3.3 million, fixed asset write downs of $912,000 and legal and other restructuring costs of $532,000.

| |  |  | Our gross profit percentage increased due to the benefit of fixed and variable cost absorption as a result of higher sales volumes and fluctuations in
foreign currency rates.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Selling and administrative costs are 21% higher due to personnel, warranty and other general costs. Personnel costs in the prior year were abnormally
low as a result of a payroll accrual adjustment.

Details of the change in net sales compared to the prior year quarter are as follows (in

|                        |  |        |       |          |    |  

The following summarizes financial results for China for the first quarter of fiscal 2011. All percentage
comparisons to the prior year exclude the impact of foreign currencies:



| |  |  | Net sales increased 89% primarily due to higher sales volumes as a result of the recovery of the Chinese economy and lift truck market. Lift truck
industry shipments within China for the quarter increased 103% when compared with the prior year.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Transfers to other Cascade locations increased due to higher customer demand in Europe and Asia Pacific.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our gross profit percentage increased due to improved absorption of fixed and variable costs as a result of higher sales volumes in the current year.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales and administrative costs increased 3% due to higher selling, engineering and other general costs.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Non-Operating Items

The
following are financial highlights for non-operating items during the first quarter of fiscal 2011:



| |  |  | Interest expense increased $153,000 during fiscal 2011 primarily due to higher interest rates in the current year.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The effective tax rate for fiscal 2011 is 35% compared to a (30%) tax rate in the prior year. The provision for income taxes in the first quarter
of fiscal 2011 includes tax expense of $555,000 as a result of changes in the tax treatment of Medicare Part D subsidy receipts under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. In the past, Medicare Part D subsidy receipts have been
non-taxable, however payments received after 2012 will be subject to federal income taxes. The provision for income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 was primarily a result of taxes due in countries where we generated income. We were unable
to realize a tax benefit in several European countries where we incurred losses.

CASH FLOWS

Free Cash Flow

Free cash
flow, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is considered a liquidity measure and provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated
after capital expenditures, which can then be used for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in our business, making strategic acquisitions and strengthening the balance sheet. A limitation of free cash flow is that it does not
represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period.

In addition, management refers to this measure
to facilitate internal and external comparisons to our historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated. This measure should be considered in
addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, gross profit, income from operations, cash flow from operating activities, or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
following table presents a summary of our free cash flow:



|                                    |  |                             |      |   |      |   |        |

|                                    |  |                             |      |   |      |   |        |  
|Free cash flow                      |  | $                           | (523 | ) |      | $ | 14,287 |  
|                                    |  |                             |      |   |      |   |        |  

The decrease in free cash flow during fiscal 2011 is primarily a result of higher levels of accounts
receivable due to increased sales volumes and the need to maintain inventory balances at current levels to meet customer needs.

Statements
of Cash Flows

The statements of cash flows reflect the changes in cash and cash equivalents for the three months ended
April 30, 2010 and April 30, 2009 by classifying transactions into three major categories of activities: operating, investing and financing.

The following table presents a summary of our cash flows:

Operating Activities

Our primary source of liquidity is cash generated from operating activities, which is measured as net income or loss adjusted for changes
in working capital and non-cash operating items such as depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation.

##### Table of Contents

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased from $15.1 million in fiscal 2010 to
$232,000 in fiscal 2011 due to the following:



| |  |  | The net loss in fiscal 2010 was a result of significantly lower sales volumes, lower gross margins and significant restructuring charges.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Inventories decreased $1.9 million during the current year compared to a decrease of $11.1 million in fiscal 2010. We have maintained our levels of
inventory in the current year. During fiscal 2010, we focused on lowering inventory quantities by limiting purchases of materials and lowering levels of finished goods needed to meet lower customer demand.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | During fiscal 2011, accounts receivable increased $9.5 million compared to a decrease of $12.4 million in fiscal 2010. The increase in the current year
is primarily a result of higher sales.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Investing Activities

Our primary investing activity is capital expenditures, which are primarily for equipment and tooling related to product improvements,
more efficient production methods and replacement for normal wear and tear. Capital expenditures by geographic segment were as follows (in thousands):



|              |  |                             |     |      |   |

The following are investing activity highlights:



| |  |  | Capital expenditures during fiscal 2011 and 2010 are below historical levels as we have limited spending to only critical projects. We expect this to
continue through the end of fiscal 2011.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We expect capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 2011 to be approximately $7 million.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Financing Activities

The following are major financing activities:



| |  |  | Net borrowings made against our long-term debt and notes payable were $61,000 during the first three months of fiscal 2011 compared to net payments of
$22 million during the first three months of fiscal 2010. In the prior year, we focused on paying down our debt with available cash.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We declared dividends totaling $219,000 ($0.02 per share) and $543,000 ($0.05 per share) during the first three months of fiscal 2011 and 2010,
respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

The following are highlights regarding our financial condition and liquidity for the first three months of fiscal 2011:



| |  |  | Our working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, increased from $112.4 million at January 31, 2010 to $122.0 million
at April 30, 2010. Our current ratio increased from 3.3 to 1 at January 31, 2010 to 3.6 to 1 at April 30, 2010.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Total outstanding debt, including notes payable to banks, decreased slightly from $59.4 million at January 31, 2010 to $59.3 million at
April 30, 2010.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following are details on our two debt covenant ratios, which are calculated
quarterly, based on actual results from the previous twelve months:

Fixed charge coverage ratio  requires earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges (EBITDA), adjusted for cash taxes paid, an established level of capital expenditures and cash dividends, to be 1.25 times required debt service payments, principal and
interest on outstanding debt through July 30, 2010 and 1.5 times from July 31, 2010 onward. The actual fixed charge coverage ratio at April 30, 2010 was 6.6.

Leverage ratio  requires outstanding debt and letters of credit to be less than 3.5 times EBITDA through July 30, 2010 and
less than 3.0 times EBITDA from July 31, 2010 onward. The actual leverage ratio at April 20, 1010 was 2.1.

We were
in compliance with our debt covenants at April 30, 2010. We believe our cash and cash equivalents, existing credit facilities and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our expected working capital, capital expenditure and
debt requirements for the next twelve months.

As of April 30, 2010, outstanding borrowings under this line of credit
totaled $53 million and an additional $1.6 million was used to issue letters of credit. No principal payments are required until December 2011. The interest rate on the line of credit, which was based on LIBOR plus a margin of 2.5% at April 30,
2010 was 2.82%.

OTHER MATTERS

The following table represents the three-month percentage change from January 31, 2010 to April 30, 2010 in the end of month
foreign currency rates compared to the U.S. dollar used by our significant operations. As a result of these changes, foreign currency translation adjustments increased shareholders equity by $3.5 million during the quarter ended April 30,
2010.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial
statements which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an on-going basis, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventories,
impairment of goodwill, warranty obligations, environmental liabilities, benefit plans, share-based compensation and deferred taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under
the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A description of our critical accounting policies and related judgments and estimates that affect the preparation of our consolidated
financial statements is set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2010.

OFF BALANCE
SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

At April 30, 2010, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial
partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited
purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Subsequent events - In February 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that amended the May 2009 subsequent events guidance
described above to (1) eliminate the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose the date through which it has evaluated subsequent events, (2) clarify the period through which conduit bond obligors must evaluate subsequent events, and
(3) refine the scope of the disclosure requirements for reissued financial statements. We adopted this new accounting guidance for our financial statements for the quarter ended April 30, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have an
impact on our financial statements.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange rate and
interest rate fluctuations. A significant portion of our net sales and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, our operating results could become subject to significant fluctuations based upon changes in the exchange rates of
the foreign currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar.

The table below illustrates the hypothetical increase in net sales for
the first quarter of fiscal 2011 resulting from a 10% weaker U.S. dollar against foreign currencies which impact our operations (in millions):



|                                                             |  |   |    
|------------------------------------------------------------ |  | - | ---
|Euro                                                         |  | $ | 1.9
|Chinese yuan                                                 |  |   | 1.3
|Japanese yen                                                 |  |   | 0.5
|Australian dollar                                            |  |   | 0.4
|Canadian dollar                                              |  |   | 0.4
|British pound                                                |  |   | 0.3
|Other currencies (representing 5% of consolidated net sales) |  |   | 0.4

A 10% weaker U.S.
dollar during the quarter, measured against foreign currencies that affect our operations, would have increased our operating income by $723,000.

We enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to offset the impact of currency
fluctuations on certain nonfunctional currency assets and liabilities. The principal currencies hedged are denominated in Japanese Yen, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Chinese Yuan, Korean Won, Swedish Krona and British Pounds. Our foreign currency forward
exchange contracts have terms lasting up to three months, but generally less than one month. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

A majority of our products are manufactured using specialty steel. As such, our cost of goods sold is sensitive to fluctuations in
specialty steel prices, either directly through the purchase of raw materials or indirectly through the purchase of components. However, due to the nature of specialty steel, we are not impacted by changes in commodity steel prices to the extent
others might be.

Presuming that the full impact of steel price increases is reflected in all steel and steel based component
purchases, we estimate our gross profit percentage would decrease by approximately 0.4% for each 1.0% increase in steel prices. Based on our statement of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2010, a 1.0% increase in steel prices
would have decreased consolidated gross profit by approximately $333,000.

The majority of our debt as of April 30, 2010
had a variable interest rate, which was 2.82% at April 30, 2010 and was based on LIBOR plus a margin of 2.5%. Based on the April 30, 2010 outstanding balance of our variable rate debt of $53 million, a 1% increase in our interest rate
would result in a $530,000 increase in annual interest expense.
