                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (IN THOUSANDS)
                                   (Unaudited)

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

         The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all
         adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that are,
         in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
         financial position and results of operations of International Wire
         Group, Inc. (the "Company"). The results for the three and nine months
         ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results
         that may be expected for a full fiscal year. These financial statements
         should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
         statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
         Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the
         year ended December 31, 2002.

         Recently Issued Accounting Standards

         In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
         Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest
         Entities," ("VIEs"), an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin
         No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements," to improve financial
         reporting of special purpose and other entities. In accordance with the
         interpretation, business enterprises that represent the primary
         beneficiary of another entity by retaining a controlling financial
         interest in that entity's assets, liabilities, and results of operating
         activities must consolidate the entity in their financial statements.
         Prior to the issuance of FIN 46, consolidation generally occurred when
         an enterprise controlled another entity through voting interests.
         Certain VIEs that are qualifying special purpose entities ("QSPEs")
         subject to the reporting requirements of SFAS 140, "Accounting for
         Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of
         Liabilities," will not be required to be consolidated under the
         provisions of FIN 46. The consolidation provisions of FIN 46 apply to
         VIEs created or entered into after January 31, 2003, and for
         pre-existing VIEs in the first reporting period beginning after June
         15, 2003. If applicable, transition rules allow the restatement of
         financial statements or prospective application with a cumulative
         effect adjustment. In addition, FIN 46 expands the disclosure
         requirements for the beneficiary of a significant or a majority of the
         variable interests to provide information regarding the nature, purpose
         and financial characteristics of the entities. Since the Company has no
         such VIEs, the adoption of this statement did not impact the Company's
         consolidated financial position and results of operations.

         In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
         Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." The statement requires
         that costs associated with exit or disposal activities must be
         recognized when they are incurred rather than at the date of a
         commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Such costs include lease
         termination costs and certain employee severance costs associated with
         a restructuring, discontinued operation or other exit or disposal
         activity. This statement is effective for the Company's exit or
         disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002 and the
         provisions of this statement are incorporated herein.

         In April of 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, "Amendment of
         Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS
         No. 149"). SFAS No. 149 clarifies the definition of a derivative and
         amends the implementation guidance of Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
         Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts
         entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except for hedging
         relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The provisions of SFAS
         No. 149, which amend implementation guidance of SFAS No. 133, are
         effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003. The
         Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 149 and determined that
         there is not a financial impact on the quarter ended September 30,
         2003.

                         INTERNATIONAL WIRE GROUP, INC.
            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (continued)

         On May 15, 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 150, or SFAS 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial
         Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS
         150 represents the first phase of the FASB's project on liabilities and
         equity and requires financial instruments that meet the definitions in
         the statement to be classified as liabilities. SFAS 150 requires that
         mandatorily redeemable preferred stock be classified and accounted for
         as a liability. However, it excludes from its scope convertible
         instruments, which will be addressed in the second phase of the FASB
         project. SFAS 150 is effective at the beginning of the first interim
         period beginning after June 15, 2003. Since the Company has no such
         financial instruments, the adoption of this statement did not have an
         effect on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of
         operations.

2.       STOCK OPTION PLANS

         As allowed under SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
         Compensation," the Company applies APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
         Stock Issued to Employees," and related Interpretations in accounting
         for its stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been
         recognized as options are issued at exercise prices equal to the market
         value at date of grant. Had compensation cost for the respective option
         plans been determined based upon the fair value at the grant date for
         awards under these plans consistent with the methodology prescribed
         under SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss for the nine months ended
         September 30, 2003 and 2002, would approximate the following:

3.       CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

         In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
         Intangible Assets," which addresses financial accounting and reporting
         for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets. Under SFAS No. 142,
         goodwill is no longer amortized and the rules for measuring goodwill
         impairment use a fair-value-based test. Under the new rules, a fair
         value of each of the Company's reporting units with assigned goodwill
         must be calculated using either market comparables or a discounted cash
         flow approach, or a combination thereof. Once the fair value of the
         reporting unit has been determined, the fair value of net assets,
         including intangibles, of that reporting unit must be compared to the
         total market value derived in the first step to determine impairment.

         The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002. Accordingly,
         the Company stopped the amortization of goodwill effective January 1,
         2002.

                                       7

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (continued)

         In completing the impairment test required under SFAS No. 142, the
         Company determined the estimated fair value of its various reporting
         units and compared that amount to their respective carrying values.
         Based on this calculation, the Company determined that an impairment
         existed primarily related to insulated wire operations obtained through
         the acquisition of Wirekraft Industries, Inc. in 1992 and the
         acquisition of a group of affiliated companies collectively referred to
         as Dekko Wire Technology Group in 1996. To determine the amount of the
         impairment, the Company calculated the "implied fair value" of goodwill
         for each impaired reporting unit in the same manner as the amount of
         goodwill recognized in a business combination is determined. The
         Company then recognized a goodwill impairment charge in the amount of
         $54,504, net of tax benefit of $19,408, in the first quarter of 2002,
         representing the excess carrying amount of goodwill over the "implied
         fair value" of goodwill for the impaired reporting units. In the fourth
         quarter of 2002, an additional impairment of $24,355 was recorded as a
         result of a further decline in the fair value of these reporting units.
         There was no such impairment in 2003.

4.       IMPAIRMENT AND PLANT CLOSING CHARGES

         Impairment and plant closing charges for the nine months ended
         September 30, 2003 related to the closing of the Kendallville, Indiana
         plant in June 2003 and other previously closed plants were $814. A
         portion of the equipment from these facilities is being relocated to
         the Durango, Mexico plant with the remainder being taken out of
         service. As a result, a fixed asset impairment charge of $469 was
         recorded in the second quarter of 2003. Additional charges of $679 are
         expected to be incurred related to the plant closings. These charges
         relate to shut-down expenditures including occupancy costs and are
         expected to be incurred over the next twelve months.

         A summary of activity related to plant closings is as follows:

5.       FINANCIAL ADVISOR AND REORGANIZATION EXPENSE

         We have experienced a significant downturn in the industrial/energy and
         electronics/data communications markets and increased competitive
         pricing pressures in the automotive market that began in 2001 and has
         continued through September 30, 2003. The economic downturn and
         competitive pricing pressures in the aforementioned markets have
         resulted in lower sales and weaker cash flows than we originally
         expected. Our liquidity also has been negatively impacted as a result
         of costs incurred in connection with the prosecution of the AIG
         Litigation (described in Note 10) and the settlement of claims related
         to the insurance coverage in question in the AIG Litigation. As a
         result of our liquidity position and our capital structure, we have
         recently experienced reductions in our credit terms with our suppliers
         which we anticipate will further reduce our available working capital
         beginning in the fourth quarter of 2003.

         In light of those developments, we have retained Rothschild Inc., as
         independent financial advisor, to evaluate recapitalization
         alternatives that would reduce our debt and strengthen our balance
         sheet. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, $480
         was incurred for professional fees related to the retention of our
         financial advisor.

         Senior Secured Notes and Industrial Revenue Bonds

         The Company issued $82,000 principal amount of 10.375% Senior Secured
         Notes (the "Senior Secured Notes") due February 28, 2005 at a price of
         96.061% under an indenture dated May 30, 2003. Net proceeds from the
         issuance of approximately $75,235, after deducting discounts and
         expenses, were used: (i) to repay in full the obligations under, and
         terminate, the Company's senior secured credit facility; (ii) to cash
         collateralize certain of the Company's letters of credit, including the
         letters of credit that were issued under the Company's senior secured
         credit facility and the letters of credit collateralizing two
         industrial revenue bonds related to the Company's acquisition of Camden
         Wire Co., Inc. in 1997; (iii) to pay interest on the Company's Senior
         Subordinated Notes and other indebtedness; and (iv) for general
         corporate purposes, including working capital.

         The Company's obligations under the Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed
         on a senior secured basis by International Wire Holding Company, the
         Company's parent, and by all of the Company's domestic restricted
         subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Notes and the guarantees are secured
         by first priority mortgages and liens on substantially all of the
         Company's and the guarantors' existing and future domestic property and
         assets and a portion of the stock of the foreign subsidiaries. The
         Senior Secured Notes bear interest at a rate of 10.375% per annum,
         requiring a semi-annual interest payment on May 15 and November 15 of
         each year. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture under which the
         Senior Secured Notes were issued, the Company's ability to incur
         additional indebtedness, pay dividends, repurchase or redeem capital
         stock, make investments, create liens or enter into sale and leaseback
         transactions, dispose of assets, enter into transactions with
         affiliates, and to merge or consolidate with or into other persons is
         limited.

         Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection
         with this issuance of the Senior Secured Notes, the Company may elect,
         but is not obligated, to file an exchange offer registration statement
         or, under certain circumstances, a shelf registration statement in
         respect of the Senior Secured Notes. If the Company does not consummate
         an offer to exchange the Senior Secured Notes for substantially
         identical debt securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act
         of 1934 by May 30, 2004 or fails to comply with certain other
         provisions of the registration rights agreement, the Company has agreed
         to pay additional interest to the holders of the Senior Secured Notes.

         In July 2003, the trustees of an Industrial Revenue Bond ("IRB") drew
         on a letter of credit in the amount of $9,000 to refund the related
         IRB. As a result, the Company's restricted cash balance, a portion of
         which had been used to cash collateralize the letter of credit, was
         reduced by $9,004. As of September 30, 2003 the Company has a
         restricted cash balance of $18,275 which is being used to cash
         collateralize $11,199 of letters of credit that were issued to various
         insurance companies for workers' compensation programs and a $6,595
         letter of credit that was issued to certain trustees in respect of one
         issuance of an IRB. The Company has notified the trustees in respect of
         the IRB that the Company will not renew the current letter of credit of
         $6,595 which expires in February 2004. As a result, pursuant to the
         terms of the IRB, the trustees will draw on the letter of credit and
         use such proceeds to refund the IRB. Accordingly, the IRB of $6,500 and
         the related restricted cash balance of $6,677 has been classified as a
         current maturity of long-term obligations and a current asset,
         respectively.

         Senior Subordinated Notes and Series B Senior Subordinated Notes

         The 11.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005 and the Series B 11.75%
         Senior Subordinated Notes (collectively, the "Senior Subordinated
         Notes") were issued under similar indentures (the "Indentures") dated
         June 12, 1995 and June 17, 1997, respectively. The Senior Subordinated
         Notes represent unsecured general obligations of the Company and are
         subordinated to all Senior Debt (as defined in the Indentures)

                                       10
<PAGE>

         of the Company.

         The Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and unconditionally (as well as
         jointly and severally) guaranteed on an unsecured, senior subordinated
         basis by each subsidiary of the Company (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries")
         other than the Company's foreign subsidiaries, (which include
         IWG-Philippines, Inc., IWG International, Inc., Italtrecce-Societa
         Italiana Trecce & Affini S.r.l., International Wire SAS, International
         Wire Group SAS, Tresse Metallique J. Forissier, S.A., Cablerie E.
         Charbonnet, S.A., IWG Services Co., S de RL de CV, IWG Durango, S de RL
         de CV (the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries")). Each of the Guarantor
         Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries is wholly owned by the
         Company.

         The Senior Subordinated Notes mature on June 1, 2005. Interest on the
         Senior Subordinated Notes is payable semi-annually on each June 1 and
         December 1. The Senior Subordinated Notes bear interest at the rate of
         11.75% per annum. The Senior Subordinated Notes are redeemable, at the
         Company's option, at the redemption price of 100% of the principal
         amount of such Notes with accrued interest.

         The Senior Subordinated Notes restrict, among other things, the
         incurrence of additional indebtedness by the Company, the payment of
         dividends and other distributions in respect of the Company's capital
         stock, the payment of dividends and other distributions by the
         Company's subsidiaries, the creation of liens on the properties and the
         assets of the Company to secure certain subordinated debt and certain
         mergers, sales of assets and transactions with affiliates.

8.       BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

         The Company conducts its operations through one business segment.

9.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         In connection with the sale of the Company's former wire harness
         business to Viasystems International, Inc. ("Viasystems"), the Company
         entered into an agreement to supply substantially all of their
         insulated wire requirements through December 2003 (which has been
         extended to December 2005). At the time of the sale, the Company and
         Viasystems were commonly controlled by affiliates of Hicks, Muse, Tate
         & Furst Incorporated. The Company had sales to Viasystems of $8,302
         and $8,907 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 and
         $23,920 and $27,743 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and
         2002, respectively. The outstanding trade receivables were $7,602 and
         $6,990 at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

         In September 2002, the Company began selling a portion of its
         production scrap to Prime Materials Recovery, Inc. ("Prime"). Prime is
         a closely held company and its majority shareholder, chairman and a
         director is the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company.
         In addition, the Vice President - Finance of the Company holds a
         minority ownership interest and is a director. The Company had sales to
         Prime of $2,663 and $318 for three months ended September 30, 2003 and
         2002 and $8,075 and $318 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003
         and 2002, respectively. The outstanding trade receivables were $373 and
         $72 at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. Sales to
         Prime were made under arms-length prices and terms comparable to those
         of other companies in the industry.

10.      DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND LITIGATION

         In July 2003, a ruling was rendered in the Circuit Court of Cook
         County, Chancery Division (Case No., 02CH2470) located in Chicago,
         Illinois, in the matter referred to as the "AIG Litigation." The trial
         court ruled in favor of the Company and ruled that National Union/AIG
         is obligated to defend and indemnify and otherwise provide insurance
         coverage to the Company and various original equipment manufacturers
         for certain claims and damages related to certain water inlet hoses
         supplied by and through the Company pursuant to two $25,000 excess
         insurance policies issued to the Company by National Union.

                                       11
<PAGE>
         Reimbursement for attorney fees and expenses was also awarded to the
         Company. National Union/AIG has filed for an appeal of the decision.

         In the quarter ended June 30, 2003, the Company recorded a receivable
         of $2,429 in respect of settlements that were previously paid by the
         Company and which are covered under the National Union/AIG insurance
         policies. Additionally, the Company recorded a $3,000 charge to
         discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This
         charge reflects the expected litigation expenses as well as potential
         settlement payments related to additional uninsured water inlet hose
         claims. No amounts have been recorded for the potential recovery of
         attorney fees. In the quarter ended September 30, 2003, the Company
         recorded an additional charge of $1,500 for expected litigation
         expenses as well as potential settlement payments for water inlet hose
         claims. These charges have been recorded through discontinued
         operations.

11.      RECENT EVENTS

         On October 23, 2003, we entered into a ten-year supply agreement with
         General Cable to supply certain bare wire products. Such supply
         contract related to a substantial amount of the volume which is
         currently being produced by General Cable's Taunton, Massachusetts
         facility which is scheduled to close within the next few months.

12.      GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES

         The Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and unconditionally (as well as
         jointly and severally) guaranteed on an unsecured, senior subordinated
         basis by each subsidiary of the Company other than the Non-Guarantor
         Subsidiaries. Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor
         Subsidiaries is wholly owned by the Company.

         The following consolidating financial statements of the Company include
         the accounts of the Company, the combined accounts of the Guarantor
         Subsidiaries and the combined accounts of the Non-Guarantor
         Subsidiaries. Given the size of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries relative
         to the Company on a consolidated basis, separate financial statements
         of the respective Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because
         management has determined that such information is not material in
         assessing the Guarantor Subsidiaries.

effects of competition. For those statements, the Company claims the protection
of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements provided for by Section 21E of

Many important factors could cause the Company's results to differ materially
from those expressed in forward-looking statements. These factors include, but
are not limited to, fluctuations in the Company's operating results and customer
orders, unexpected decreases in demand or increases in inventory levels, the
Company's competitive environment, the Company's reliance on its largest
customers, risks associated with the Company's international operations, and
other factors.

GENERAL

The following discussion and analysis includes the results of operations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2002.

A portion of the Company's revenues is derived from processing customer-owned
("tolled") copper. The value of tolled copper is excluded from both sales and
costs of sales of the Company, as title to these materials and the related risks
of ownership do not pass to the Company.

The cost of copper has historically been subject to fluctuations. Currently, a
$0.10 per pound fluctuation in the price of copper will have a $2.6 million
impact on our working capital. Copper price fluctuations may also affect the per
unit prices of the Company's products, however, copper price fluctuations have
not had, nor are expected to have, a material impact on the Company's
profitability due to copper price pass-through arrangements that the Company has
with its customers. These sales arrangements are based on similar variations of
monthly copper price formulas. Use of these copper price formulas minimizes the
differences between raw material copper costs charged to the cost of sales and
the pass-through pricing charged to customers.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 2002

Net sales were $94.1 million and $99.6 million for the quarters ended September
30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2003
were $5.5 million, or 5.6%, below comparable 2002 levels primarily from lower
sales to customers supplying the automotive and appliance industries and a
higher proportion of tolled copper in the 2003 period, partially offset by an
increase in the average cost and selling price of copper. The average price of
copper based upon COMEX increased to $0.80 per pound for the quarter ended
September 30, 2003 from $0.69 per pound for the quarter ended September 30,
2002.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales increased to 81.8% for the quarter
ended September 30, 2003, from 79.9% for the same period in 2002. This change
was primarily due to competitive pricing pressures and increased insulating
compound material costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8.1 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 2003, compared to $8.0 million for the same period in 2002.
Included in the quarter ended September 30, 2003 was a $1.0 million charge for
payments to be made to our former Chief Executive Officer under his employment
agreement. Excluding this charge, selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased $0.9 million which was primarily the result of volume related items,
lower bad debt provision and reduced accruals for personnel related costs. These
expenses, as a percent of net sales, increased from 8.0% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2002 to 8.6% for the quarter ended September 30, 2003.

Depreciation and amortization was $6.3 million for the quarter ended September
30, 2003, compared to $7.1 million for the same period in 2002 from lower
depreciation on property, plant and equipment.

As described below, we have retained Rothschild Inc. as independent financial
advisor. During the three months ended September 30, 2003, $0.5 million was
incurred for professional fees related to the retention of our financial
advisor. There was no similar charge for the 2002 period.

Impairment and plant closing charges for the three months ended September 30,
2003 related to the closing of the Kendallville, Indiana plant in June 2003 and
other previously closed plants were $0.3 million. Additional charges of $0.7
million are expected to be incurred related to the plant closings. These charges
relate to shut-down expenditures including occupancy costs and are expected to
be incurred over the next twelve months.

The income tax benefit for the quarters ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 were
$0.0 million and $3.0 million, respectively. A full valuation allowance was
recorded in the fourth quarter of 2002.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
2002

Net sales were $285.5 million and $307.7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Sales for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 were $22.2 million, or 7.2%, below comparable 2002 levels
primarily from lower sales to customers supplying the automotive and appliance
industries, partially offset by a slight increase in the average cost and
selling price of copper. The average price of copper based upon COMEX increased
to $0.77 per pound for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $0.72 per
pound for the nine months ended September 30, 2002.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales increased to 81.6% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2003, from 79.4% for the same period in 2002. This
change was primarily due to competitive pricing pressures, operational
inefficiencies from lower production levels and increased insulating compound
material costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $22.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $24.9 million for the same period
in 2002. Included in the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was a $1.0 million
charge for payments to be made to our former Chief Executive Officer under his
employment agreement. Excluding this charge, selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased $3.8 million which was primarily the result of volume related
items, continued cost reductions including headcount reductions, lower bad debt
provision and reduced accruals for personnel related costs. These expenses, as a
percent of net sales, decreased from 8.1% for the nine months ended September
30, 2002 to 7.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.

Depreciation and amortization was $20.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003, compared to $21.0 million for the same period in 2002 from
lower depreciation on property, plant and equipment.

As described below, we have retained Rothschild Inc. as independent financial
advisor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, $0.5 million was
incurred for professional fees related to the retention of our financial
advisor. There was no similar charge in the 2002 period.

Impairment and plant closing charges for the nine months ended September 30,
2003 related to the closing of the Kendallville, Indiana plant in June 2003 and
other previously closed plants were $0.8 million. A portion of the equipment
from these facilities is being relocated to the Durango, Mexico plant with the
remainder being taken out of service. As a result, a fixed asset impairment
charge of $0.5 million was recorded in the second quarter of 2003. Additional
charges of $0.7 million are expected to be incurred related to the plant
closings. These charges relate to shut-down expenditures including occupancy
costs and are expected to be incurred over the next twelve months.

The income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $0.2
million compared to a tax benefit of $6.5 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002. A full valuation allowance was recorded in the fourth
quarter of 2002. Accordingly, the $0.2 million tax provision in 2003 represents
the provision for certain state and foreign income taxes only.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have experienced a significant downturn in the industrial/energy and
electronics/data communications markets and increased competitive pricing
pressures in the automotive market that began in 2001 and has continued through
September 30, 2003. The economic downturn and competitive pricing pressures in
the aforementioned markets have resulted in lower sales and weaker cash flows
than we originally expected. Our liquidity also has been negatively impacted as
a result of costs incurred in connection with the prosecution of the AIG
Litigation and the settlement of claims related to the insurance coverage in
question in the AIG Litigation. As a result of our liquidity position and our
capital structure, we have recently experienced reductions in our credit terms
with our suppliers which we anticipate will further reduce our available working
capital beginning in the fourth quarter of 2003.

In light of those developments, we have retained Rothschild Inc., as independent
financial advisor, to evaluate recapitalization alternatives that would reduce
our debt and strengthen our balance sheet.

Working Capital and Cash Flows

Net cash provided by continuing operations was $13.5 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, compared to $14.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of increased working
capital including the effect of higher copper prices.

Net cash used in investing activities for capital expenditures was $9.3 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $8.7 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase primarily related to
increased machinery and equipment additions and upgrade expenditures.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $39.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, compared to net cash used by financing activities of
$1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase was the
net result of the issuance of $82.0 million principal amount of 10.375% Senior
Secured Notes as described below.

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2003, we had $43.3 million of unrestricted cash and cash
equivalents and our working capital was $96.6 million.

We anticipate that our cash requirements for the next twelve months will be for
working capital requirements, for capital expenditures (estimated at
approximately $19.1 million), for plant closing costs and discontinued
operations (estimated at approximately $5.1 million), and for debt service
(excluding the IRB to be repaid by drawings under the letter of credit)
(estimated at approximately $45.2 million). Our primary sources of liquidity are
cash on hand and cash flows from operations. We expect that these sources of
cash will be sufficient to meet our requirements for working capital, capital
expenditures and debt service under our Senior Secured Notes over the next
twelve months. However, unless cash flows from operations materially increase or
we are able to obtain an additional source of liquidity including through debt
or equity financings, such sources of cash would not be sufficient to make
required interest payments on our Senior Subordinated Notes over the next twelve
months. In the event the Company would fail to make any required payments under
the Senior Subordinated Notes, the holders of our Senior Secured Notes and/or
our Senior Subordinated Notes could elect to seek acceleration and repayment of
such indebtedness. If such an acceleration would occur, we would not have
sufficient liquidity to repay such indebtedness and we would not expect to be
able to refinance such indebtedness.

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations at the end of
September 2003 for the periods shown (dollars in millions):

         (1) Debt obligations are exclusive of interest.

Inflation and Copper Pricing

Inflation has not been a material factor affecting our business. The principal
raw material used in the Company's products is copper. The market price of
copper is subject to significant fluctuations. Working capital needs change
whenever we experience a significant change in copper prices. A $0.10 per pound
change in the price of copper changes our working capital by approximately $2.6
million. We enter into contractual relationships with most of our customers to
adjust our prices based upon the prevailing market prices on the COMEX. This
approach is patterned after our arrangement with our copper suppliers and is
designed to remove the risk associated with fluctuating copper prices. We are
subject to normal inflationary pressures with our other raw materials purchased
as well as our general operating expenses, such as salaries, employee benefits
and facilities costs.

Financing Arrangements

We issued $82.0 million principal amount of 10.375% Senior Secured Notes (the
"Senior Secured Notes") due February 28, 2005 at a price of 96.061% under an
indenture dated May 30, 2003. Net proceeds from the issuance of approximately
$75.2 million, after deducting discounts and expenses, were used: (i) to repay
in full the obligations under, and terminate, our senior secured credit
facility; (ii) to cash collateralize certain of our letters of credit, including
the letters of credit that were issued under our senior secured credit facility
and the letters of credit collateralizing two industrial revenue bonds related
to our acquisition of Camden Wire Co., Inc. in 1997; (iii) to pay interest on
our Senior Subordinated Notes and other indebtedness; and (iv) for general
corporate purposes, including working capital.

Our obligations under the Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed on a senior
secured basis by International Wire Holding Company, our parent, and by all of
our domestic restricted subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Notes and the
guarantees are secured by first priority mortgages and liens on substantially
all of our and the guarantors' existing and future domestic property and assets
and a portion of the stock of the foreign subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Notes
bear interest at a rate of 10.375% per annum, requiring a semi-annual interest
payment on May 15 and November 15 of each year. Pursuant to the terms of the
indenture under which the Senior Secured Notes were issued, our ability to incur
additional indebtedness, pay dividends, repurchase or redeem capital stock, make
investments, create liens or enter into sale and leaseback transactions, dispose
of assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, and to merge or consolidate
with or into other persons is limited.

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into in connection with this
issuance of the Senior Secured Notes, we may elect, but are not obligated, to
file an exchange offer registration statement or, under certain circumstances, a
shelf registration statement in respect of the Senior Secured Notes. If we do
not consummate an offer to exchange the Senior Secured Notes for substantially
identical debt securities registered under the Securities Act by May 30, 2004 or
fail to comply with certain other provisions of the registration rights
agreement, we have agreed to pay additional interest to the holders of the
Senior Secured Notes.

In July 2003, the trustees of an Industrial Revenue Bond ("IRB") drew on a
letter of credit in the amount of $9.0 million to refund the related IRB. As a
result, the Company's restricted cash balance, a portion of which has been used
to cash collateralize the letter of credit, was reduced by $9.0 million. As of
September 30, 2003 the Company has a restricted cash balance of $18.3 million
which is being used to cash collateralize $11.2 million of letters of credit
that were issued to various insurance companies for workers' compensation
programs and a $6.6 million letter of credit that was issued to certain trustees
in respect of one issuance of an IRB. The Company has notified the trustees in
respect of the IRB that the Company will not renew the current letter of credit
of $6.6 million which expires in February 2004. As a result, pursuant to the
terms of the IRB, the trustees will draw on the letter of credit and use such
proceeds to refund the IRB. Accordingly, the IRB of $6.5 million and the related
restricted cash

                                       22

<PAGE>

balance of $6.7 million has been classified as a current maturity of long-term
obligations and a current asset, respectively.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation
No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," ("VIEs"), an
interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial
Statements," to improve financial reporting of special purpose and other
entities. In accordance with the interpretation, business enterprises that
represent the primary beneficiary of another entity by retaining a controlling
financial interest in that entity's assets, liabilities, and results of
operating activities must consolidate the entity in their financial statements.
Prior to the issuance of FIN 46, consolidation generally occurred when an
enterprise controlled another entity through voting interests. Certain VIEs that
are qualifying special purpose entities ("QSPEs") subject to the reporting
requirements of SFAS 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities," will not be required to be
consolidated under the provisions of FIN 46. The consolidation provisions of FIN
46 apply to VIEs created or entered into after January 31, 2003, and for
pre-existing VIEs in the first reporting period beginning after June 15, 2003.
If applicable, transition rules allow the restatement of financial statements or
prospective application with a cumulative effect adjustment. In addition, FIN 46
expands the disclosure requirements for the beneficiary of a significant or a
majority of the variable interests to provide information regarding the nature,
purpose and financial characteristics of the entities. Since the Company has no
such VIEs, the adoption of this statement did not impact the Company's
consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities." The statement requires that costs associated
with exit or disposal activities must be recognized when they are incurred
rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Such costs
include lease termination costs and certain employee severance costs associated
with a restructuring, discontinued operation or other exit or disposal activity.
This statement is effective for the Company's exit or disposal activities
initiated after December 31, 2002 and the provisions of this statement are
incorporated herein.

In April of 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 149"). SFAS No. 149
clarifies the definition of a derivative and amends the implementation guidance
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 149 is
effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except for
hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The provisions of SFAS No.
149, which amend implementation guidance of SFAS No. 133, are effective for
fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003. The Company adopted the
provisions of SFAS No. 149 and determined that there is not a financial impact
on the quarter ended September 30, 2003.

On May 15, 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
150, or SFAS 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS 150 represents the first
phase of the FASB's project on liabilities and equity and requires financial
instruments that meet the definitions in the statement to be classified as
liabilities. SFAS 150 requires that mandatorily redeemable preferred stock be
classified and accounted for as a liability. However, it excludes from its scope
convertible instruments, which will be addressed in the second phase of the
FASB" project. SFAS 150 is effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003. Since the Company has no such financial
instruments, the adoption of this statement did not have an effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In accordance with Item 305 of Regulation S-K, the Company provided quantitative
and qualitative information about market risk in "Item 7a. Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" of the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended
December 31, 2002.

On May 30, 2003, the Company terminated its senior secured credit facility
thereby reducing the amount of the Company's long-term debt, bearing interest at
variable rates, to $6.5 million. Given the current amount of long-term debt
subject to variable interest rates, the Company does not believe that the
associated interest rate risk is material and is not currently engaged in any
hedging activities.

Except as described above, there have been no material changes to such
information disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2002.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     The Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief
     Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure
     controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
     the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of
     the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon that
     evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
     Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
     procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this
     quarterly report.

     There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial
     reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange
     Act) that occurred during the Company's fiscal quarter ended September 30,
     2003, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
     affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
