     Long-term debt                                                                             $3,333,186
                                                                                                ==========
</TABLE>

     The Company also has a secured $13,000,000 line of credit, in the form of a
     demand note, of which $6,339,520 was utilized at September 30, 2002.
     Interest is charged at the bank's prime lending rate, plus 1.75% and is
     payable monthly.

     The line of credit agreement requires the company to earn $1.00 pre tax per
     month. The agreement also restricts the payments of dividends, repurchase
     of common stock, and acquisition of property and equipment. At September
     30, 2002 the company was not in compliance with the earnings covenant and
     obtained a waiver for such non-compliance from its lender. The waiver was
     issued subject to management's agreement to seek alternate financial
     arrangements and provide the bank with a commitment letter, by February 3,
     2003, to take out all of the bank's debt. If the Company fails to provide a
     commitment letter by this date, the Company is required to pay the bank a
     fee. Alternatively, the bank has indicated its willingness to reconsider
     its position if the Company presents the bank with an acceptable
     independent analysis detailing revenue opportunities and cost reduction
     initiatives associated with the Company's information product's line. It is
     the Company's belief that they will be able to provide the bank with an
     acceptable analysis and cost reduction plan, so that the bank will forego
     its requirement for the Company to seek alternate financing arrangements.
     The Company has also initiated discussions with several other financial
     institutions regarding the complete financing needs of the Company which
     would include retiring the entire debt with its present bank.

6.   Loss Per Share

E.                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


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 nine month periods is as follows:

Item 2.         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL


                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                    For Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002

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
affecting Trans-Industries, Inc., its competitors, or the markets in which it is
active, or changes in other factors may cause future results to vary from those
expected by the corporation.

Sales and Earnings

Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2002, were $7,603,082 compared to
$8,317,115 for the same period a year ago. This decrease of $714,033 is
primarily attributed to the closing of two operations during 2001. Additionally
demand for the Company's highway information products, was not as strong in the
third quarter of 2002 as it was a year ago. For the nine-month period ending
September 30, 2002 sales were $24.7 million compared with $27.4 million a year
ago. $2.2 million of this $2.7 million decrease is attributable to the closing
of two operations during 2001.

During the third quarter of 2002, the Company recorded a net loss of $491,992 or
$.16 per share on sales of $7,603,082. For the same period last year, sales were
$8,317,115 with a net loss of $538,478 or $.17 per share. For the nine months
ending September 30, 2002, sales were $24,658,201 with a net loss of $139,624.
For the same nine-month period a year ago, sales were $27,370,879 and a net loss
of $2,109,269 was recorded. The 2002 reduction in the nine-month loss on less
sales is primarily attributed to the closing of two unprofitable operations
during 2001.

Inventories

Inventory valuation is based upon the lower of cost or market. At September 30,
2002, consolidated inventories were $11,437,945 compared to $11,885,436 a year
ago. This decrease of $447,491 reflects the Company's effort to bring its
inventory level more in line with its sales volume. This is particularly the
situation at the information products operation where new software packages are
currently being installed to improve production planning and control as well as
product costing data.

                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                    For Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002


Interest

Interest expense amounted to approximately $164,000 and $296,000 for the third
quarter of 2002 and 2001, respectively. This decrease of $132,000 was the result
of lower interest rates and lower debt levels in 2002.

Financial Condition

Current financial resources coupled with anticipated funds from operations are
expected to meet funding requirements for the remainder of the year, based upon
present needs.

       Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

                    For Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002


The Company is exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
International revenue from the Company's foreign subsidiary was approximately 6%
of total revenues for nine months ended September 30, 2002. The Company's
primary foreign currency exposure is the British Pound. The Company manages its
exposure to foreign currency assets and earnings primarily by funding certain
foreign currency denominated assets with liabilities in the same currency and,
as such, certain exposures are naturally offset.

The Company's financial results are affected by changes in U.S. and foreign
interest rates. The Company does not hold financial instruments that are subject
to market risk (interest rate risk and foreign exchange rate risk).

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on
their evaluation within 90 days of the filing date of this report, that our

disclosing the information we are required to disclose in our reports filed
