                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                (Dollars in Thousands, Except Earnings Per Share)


(1)      Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly its
financial position at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 and its results
of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and
September 30, 2001. The Company's financial position as of December 31, 2001 and
results of operations as of September 30, 2001 have been restated. All
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X and therefore do not
include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. The Company has filed an amended
report on Form 10-K/A which contains restated audited consolidated financial
statements that include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair
presentation of its financial position at December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.

The results of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

(4)      Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash in excess of daily requirements is invested in marketable securities
consisting of Commercial Paper and Repurchase Agreements which mature in three
months or less. Such investments are deemed to be cash equivalents.

(5)      Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when products are shipped pursuant to firm, fixed-price
written contracts with title to the products passing to the customers at the FOB
point.

(6)      Earnings Per Share

The incremental difference between basic weighted average shares outstanding and
diluted weighted average shares outstanding is due to the dilutive impact of
outstanding options and warrants.

(7)      Goodwill

The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002. With the
adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no longer amortized. Rather, the assets
associated with the goodwill will be assessed, at least annually, for
impairment. During the quarter ending March 31, 2002, the Company performed the
first of the annual impairment tests of goodwill. The results of those tests
revealed that the goodwill of the Company has not been impaired. As of September
30, 2002, the Company had approximately $8.2 million of goodwill on its balance
sheet. On a yearly basis, prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company's
annual expense associated with the amortization of goodwill was approximately
$.49 million.

(8)      Restatement of 2001 Interim Financial Statements

The 2001 provision for income taxes was previously reported using an implied tax
rate of 20% and has been restated to use an effective tax rate of 36%. The
effect of such change was to increase tax expense by $0.863 million and $2.703
million, respectively, for the three-month period and nine-month period ended
September 30, 2001. The effect of such change also reduced net income and
diluted earnings per share by $0.863 million and $0.07 for the three-month
period and $2.703 million and $0.21 for the nine-month period ended September
30, 2001.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Third Quarter 2002 Compared to Third Quarter 2001

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2002 were $42.8 million
compared to $59.5 for the same period in 2001. The significant decrease in sales
for the third quarter of 2002 was due to the continued downturn of the aerospace
market, particularly after September 11, 2001. Gross profit for the third
quarter of 2002 declined to 6.7% of sales in contrast to 12.5% of sales in the
third quarter of 2001 primarily as a result of product mix, margin pressures in
2002 and lack of sales volume.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, were
3.3% for the third quarter of 2002 compared to 2.6% for the same period in 2001.
The variation in SG&A expenses between the periods was attributable to the
Company's recognition of approximately $1.1 million in non-cash income in 2001
and $0.7 million in 2002 as a result of the impact of FASB Interpretation No. 44
("FIN 44") on stock option programs. Under the provisions of FIN 44, 320,000
options repriced at $8.25 per share are accounted for under variable accounting,
which records compensation expense or benefit for increases or decreases in the
market value of the Company's common stock until the options are exercised,
forfeited or expire. Adjusting for this non-cash item would have resulted in
SG&A expenses being 4.9% of sales in the third quarter of 2002 and 4.5% of sales
in the same period of 2001.

Interest expense for the period was $0.468 million in contrast to $0.544 million
in 2001. During the third quarter of 2002, the Company's revolving debt had an
interest rate equal to the LIBOR rate plus 0.80% per annum and the senior notes
earn interest at the rate of 7.19% per annum.

The provision for income taxes for the three-month period in 2001 has been
restated from that previously reported. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial
statements. The $0.37 million provision for income taxes for 2002 and $1.9
million for 2001, 36% for each period, represent largely non-cash accounting
charges. The Company has significant net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards
which largely offset most actual tax liabilities of the Company. For financial
statement purposes the Company uses an effective tax rate which reflects federal
and state taxes without a reduction for actual NOL usage. See "Liquidity and
Capital Resources."

Net income for the third quarter of 2002 was $0.65 million, an 81% decline from
the same period in 2001. The decrease in profitability was due to lower sales
volume in 2002 and margin pressure from customers.

Nine Months 2002 Compared to Nine Months 2001

For the first nine months of 2002, sales of $144.3 million reflected a 26.6%
decrease from the $196.4 million of sales for the first three quarters of 2001.
The sales shortfall reflects a contraction in the Company's aerospace market.
Gross profit in the first nine months of 2002 was 7.5% in comparison to 13.5% in
the same period in 2001. The decline in gross profit is primarily due to reduced
volume of sales and under absorption of fixed costs in 2002 versus 2001 and
continued margin pressure from major customers.

                                                                    Page 9 of 13

SG&A expenses for the first three quarters of 2002 were 4.7% of sales in
contrast to 4.2% of sales through September 30, 2001. As discussed above in the
quarter discussion, the variation in SG&A expense is largely attributable to the
non-cash, FIN 44 charges and credits. On a normalized basis, the Company's SG&A
expenses typically approximate 4.9% of sales.

Interest expense in the first nine months of 2002 of $1.34 million compares
favorably to the $1.45 million in 2001.

The provision for income taxes for the nine-month period ended September 30,
2001 has been restated from that previously reported. See Note 8 to the
consolidated financial statements. As discussed above, the tax provisions of
$1.0 million and $6.1 million, 36%, for the first nine months of 2002 and 2001,
represent largely non-cash accounting charges. The Company has significant NOL
carryforwards which largely offset most actual tax liabilities of the Company.

Net income for the period decreased to $1.8 million from $10.8 million in the
prior year. The decline in net earnings is attributable to significantly reduced
sales volume which resulted in under absorption of fixed costs, unfavorable
product mix and margin pressure from customers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On April 13, 2001, the Company and a syndicate of lenders entered into an
amended and restated credit facility (the "New Facility"). The New Facility was
comprised of a $16 million term facility with a three-year maturity and a $39
million revolving loan facility. The term facility bore interest at a rate of
LIBOR plus 1.25% and the revolving loan facility bears interest at a rate of
LIBOR plus 0.80%.

On July 20, 2001, the Company sold $30 million of Notes in a private placement
to certain institutional investors. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.19%
per annum with the interest being paid semiannually. The Notes have a seven-year
duration with the principal amortizing equally over the remaining duration after
the third year. The Company used the proceeds from the Notes to repay
outstanding borrowings under the New Facility and for working capital purposes.
In conjunction with the private placement of the Notes, the Company and the
lenders in the New Facility amended the New Facility on July 17, 2001 (the
"Amended Facility"). The Amended Facility consists of a $50 million revolving
line of credit which bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 0.80%. On April 12,
2002, the Amended Facility was modified to reduce the revolving line of credit
to $45 million. At September 30, 2002, $16.8 million was available pursuant to
the terms of the Amended Facility. There were no borrowings under the Amended
Facility as of September 30, 2002.

The Company has NOL carryforwards that were generated prior to its
reorganization that was completed on April 30, 1993, as well as NOL
carryforwards that were generated in subsequent years. The total remaining NOL
carryforwards were approximately $21.2 million as of December 31, 2001. The NOL
carryforwards expire gradually beginning in the year 2008 through 2010.

The Company's initial public offering created an ownership change as defined by
the Internal Revenue Service, ("IRS"). This ownership change generated an IRS
imposed limitation on the utilization of NOL carryforwards on future tax
returns. The annual use of the NOL carryforwards is limited to the lesser of the
Company's taxable income or the amount of the IRS imposed limitation.
Approximately $11.9 million of the NOL carryforwards is available for use
annually. Approximately $2.1 million of the $11.9 million annual limitation
relates to a previous restriction on NOL carryforwards generated prior to its
reorganization.

<PAGE>
                                                                   Page 10 of 13

Realization of the net deferred tax assets of $21.9 million, which includes the
benefit of the NOLs, over time is dependent upon the Company generating
sufficient taxable income in future periods. In determining that realization of
the net deferred tax assets was more likely than not, the Company gave
consideration to a number of factors including its recent earnings history,
expectations for earnings in the future, the timing of reversal of temporary
differences, tax planning strategies available to the Company and the expiration
dates associated with NOL carryforwards. If, in the future, the Company
determines that it is no longer more likely than not that the net deferred tax
assets will be realized, a valuation allowance will be established against all
or part of the net deferred tax assets with an offsetting charge to the income
tax provision.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company believes that its exposure to market risk related to changes in
foreign currency exchange rates and trade accounts receivable is immaterial as
all of the Company's sales are made in U.S. dollars. The Company does not
consider it subject to the market risks addressed by Item 305 of Regulation S-K.
