8.   Restructuring Costs

     The Company, in June 2001, reported restructuring charges relating to the
     consolidation of manufacturing facilities in England of approximately
     $700,000. A major portion of this charge, $648,000, relates to the disposal

9.   Note - Goodwill


Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement No.
142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, issued by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board in July 2001 ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 142 addresses how intangible
assets that are acquired individually or with a group of assets should be
accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition. SFAS 142 specifies
that goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is subject to certain
impairment tests annually.

The Company recorded goodwill in connection with the acquisition of the Lobb
Company, the net amount of goodwill, $150,369 as of January 1, 2002, will not be
amortized.


A reconciliation of net earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share reported
in the consolidated statements of operations to the net earnings (loss) and
earnings (loss) per share adjusted for the effect of goodwill amortization for
the six month periods is as follows:

Forward-Looking Statements

This discussion highlights significant factors influencing the financial
condition and results of operations of Trans-Industries, Inc. It should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes. This discussion
includes certain forward-looking statements based on management's estimate of
trends and economic factors in the markets in which the corporation is active,
as well as the corporation's business plans. In light of recent securities law
developments, including the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the corporation notes that such forward-looking
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, the
corporation's actual results may differ from those set forth in such statements.
Significant changes in economic conditions, regulatory or legislative changes

active, or changes in other factors may cause future results to vary from those
expected by the corporation.

Sales and Earnings

Sales for the second quarter of 2002 were $8.3 million compared with $8.3
million for the same period a year ago. Included in last year's quarterly
results were $665,000 of sales from two closed operations. For the six month
period ending June 30, 2002, sales were $17.1 million compared with $19.1
million a year ago with $1.6 million of this $2.0 million decrease attributable
to the two operations closed in 2001.

During the second quarter of 2002, the Company recorded a net income of $42,953
or $0.01 per share on sales of $8,256,438. Incurred in the second quarter of
2002, were several unusual expenses, which hampered earnings. Expenses for the
Company's medical program, which is self-insured, were extremely high due to
several high dollar claim amounts being paid. Accordingly, $500,000 of this
expense was recorded in June, 2002. Additionally, the Company recorded several
non-recurring expenses relating to the closure of Transmatic Window Systems in
2001. In June of 2002, the Company received a federal income tax refund, which
due to the change in the law of carry back provisions, was $396,000 higher than
the estimated reserve established at December 31, 2001, and accordingly, it was
credited in the second quarter of 2002.

For the same period last year, sales were $8,306,103 with a net loss of
$1,512,235 or $0.48 per share. Included in this $1.5 million loss is a
restructuring change in the amount of $700,000 before income taxes.

Item 2.           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                       For Six Months Ended June 30, 2002

Inventories

Inventory valuation is based upon the lower of cost or market. At June 30, 2002,
consolidated inventories were $11,044,905 compared to $12,602,284 a year ago.
This decrease of $1,557,379 is a result of the Company's effort to bring its
inventory levels more in line with its sales volumes.

Interest

Interest expense amounted to approximately $219,000 and $309,000 for the second
quarter of 2002 and 2001, respectively. This decrease of $90,000 was the result
of slightly lower debt levels in 2002.

Financial Condition

Current financial resources coupled with anticipated funds from operations and
the federal income tax refund the Company received in June, 2002 are expected to
meet funding requirements for the remainder of the year, based upon present
needs.
