Business

Acme Electric Corporation (hereinafter, the "Registrant", the "Company" or "Acme") was duly organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on
April 26, 1946, as successor to a business founded in 1917. Its sole line of
business is the design, manufacture and marketing of power conversion equipment
for electronic and electrical systems. Principal markets encompass the computer,
test equipment, information systems, military, aerospace and telecommunications
and a variety of industrial, commercial and residential fields for applications
that require conversion of electrical energy from one useable state to another.
Products are distributed to customers through the Registrant's sales force,
independent sales representatives and wholesale distributors. The business of
the Registrant is not seasonal in nature.

On May 26, 2000, Acme entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Key Components, LLC ("Key") and KCI Merger Corp.
("KCI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Key.  The merger agreement provides for the merger of Acme and KCI, with Acme
being the surviving corporation.  On the merger, all outstanding shares of Common Stock of Acme,
other than shares as to which dissenter's rights of appraisal are perfected, will be converted into the right to
receive $9.00 per share in cash.

Competition

Competitive conditions within the power conversion industry are intense. The Registrant
competes with many other companies, some of which have far greater resources
than the Registrant. The principal methods of competition within the industry
are price, service and product performance. To meet this competition, the
Registrant attempts to maintain high standards of engineering, manufacturing and
customer service. Due to the number and variety of competitors, reliable data
relative to the Registrants competitive position within the power
conversion industry would be difficult to develop and is not known nor believed
to exist.

Customers

Power conversion equipment sales encompass markets wherein the demands of any one
customer may vary greatly due to changes in technology and market strategy. No single
customer of the Company accounted for more than 10% of sales in fiscal year 2000.
No single customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Companys accounts
receivable balance of June 30, 2000.

Backlog

The backlog of orders believed to be firm totaled approximately $15,889,000 at June 30, 2000,
compared with approximately $14,190,000 at June 30, 1999. The increased backlog
at June 30, 2000, compared with the backlog at June 30, 1999, reflects an
increased backlog of orders in the Registrants Electronics Division
business, as new programs develop.

Backlog orders at June 30, 2000, are generally expected to be filled during the fiscal
year ending June 30, 2001.

Raw Materials

The Registrant purchases materials in a semi-finished state from other manufacturers and
distributors. Availability of materials is considered adequate to maintain
current production levels.

Patents

The Registrant holds several technical patents and trademarks and is a party to certain patent
applications. The extent of the effect of such patents and trademarks is,
however, in the opinion of management, not material at this
time.

Licenses

The Registrant is a party to several license agreements. The only significant license,
under which Acme, as licensee, sells and manufactures a proprietary fiber nickel cadmium
battery (FNC), is an agreement with Hoppecke Batterie Systeme GmbH (formerly,
Daug-Hoppecke Gesellschaft Fur Batteriesysteme mbH (DAHO)) of
Brilon, Germany.

Employees

As of June 30, 2000, approximately 596 persons were employed by the Registrant.

Research and Development

Approximately 6% of the Registrants employees are engaged in engineering design and product
development. New products are continuously designed to satisfy specific customer
requirements, and the cost of such development is expensed as incurred. Since
satisfaction of many customers needs requires advancing applicable
technology, applied research is an integral part of engineering-design and
product-development activities. The cost of such activities during the fiscal
years ended June 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, was $3,618,000, $3,638,000 and
$4,136,000, respectively.

Environmental Matters

On June 27, 1997, the Registrant settled the claim by the New York State Department of
Environmental Conservation (DEC) for contribution toward the costs of
remediation of a municipal waste landfill site upon payment of $725,000. In July
1999, the Registrant received a $350,000 settlement from its insurance
carrier related to this matter. These proceeds were included in the reported
results of the first quarter of fiscal 2000.

ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES

The Registrant owns one plant in Lumberton, North Carolina. The Registrant also leases three
facilities, one in Cuba, New York, with a purchase option for a nominal amount.
The Cuba facility is subject to three mortgages securing indebtedness,
aggregating approximately $3,472,000 as of June 30, 2000, and is also subject to
an additional mortgage securing a bond issued by the owner of the facility (an
industrial development agency) to the County of Allegany in the outstanding
amount of approximately $500,000, for which the Registrant is not personally
liable, but which is being paid in installments through the application thereto
of payments in lieu of taxes being made periodically by the Registrant. The
second leased facility is located in Tempe, Arizona. The third leased facility
is located in Nuevo Leon, Mexico. The Registrant further leases facility space
at a second location in Cuba, New York, and a warehouse in Tempe,
Arizona.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Registrant is involved in ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business, but none
is expected to have a material impact upon the financial condition of the
Registrant.

Following the execution of a merger agreement with Miranda Holdings, Inc., an affiliate of
Strategic Investments and Holdings, Inc., in April 2000, Acme was sued in four separate actions
each seeking preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against consummation of the merger with Miranda Holdings,
rescission of the merger if consummated and rescissionary damages, monetary damages to shareholders, and costs and attorneys' fee.  These
actions are described below.

On April 27, 2000, David Shaev filed a class action lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,
New York County against Acme and its officers and directors alleging that Acme and its directors breached their fiduciary
duties by failing to provide shareholders a fair price for their Acme shares in the proposed transaction with Miranda Holdings.

On April 27, 2000, Shirley E. Powell filed a class action lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,
New York County against Acme, its officers and directors, and Strategic Investments and Holdings, alleging that Acme
and its directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to provide shareholders a fair price for their Acme shares in the
proposed transaction with Miranda Holdings.

On April 27, 2000, Brickell Partners, a Florida partnership, filed a class action lawsuit
in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County against Acme and its officers and
directors.  The claim alleges that the proposed transaction with Strategic Investments and Holdings
was grossly unfair, inadequate, and undervalues Acme's shares and that Acme and its officers and directors
breached their fiduciary duties to the shareholders.

On May 9, 2000, Robert Corwin filed a class action lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Erie County
against Acme, its officers and directors and Strategic Investments and Holdings alleging that the proposed terms of the
merger with Miranda Holdings were unfair, and that by accepting the terms, Acme and its officers and directors
breached their fiduciary duties and responsibilities to the shareholders.  When the proposed transaction with Strategic
Investments and Holdings was terminated in May 2000, plaintiff amended his complaint.  The amended
complaint included all prior allegations and further alleged that Acme and its officers and directors continue to
breach their fiduciary duties to Acme shareholders with respect to the proposed transaction with Key Components.  Specifically,
plaintiff alleges that the $2.5 million termination fee and expenses paid to Strategic Investments and Holdings caused Key Components to
lower its offer price for Acme's shares.  Plaintiff also alleges that the proxy statement fails to disclose all facts to Acme shareholders.  In
the amended complaint plaintiff seeks the following relief:  injunctive relief; compensatory and/or rescissory damages in the
amount of $2.8 million; and costs and attorneys' fees.

Acme believes these actions are without merit and intends to defend the actions vigorously.

ITEM 4 - SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         No matter was submitted during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report to a vote of security holders
through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

Acme suspended its quarterly cash dividend effective the third quarter of fiscal 1991.  A loss in fiscal 1991 resulted in a deficit of
retained earnings.  As the Company continues to have a deficit of retained earnings, it does not expect to reinstate dividends in
the foreseeable future.  Acme's bank credit agreement prohibits the payment of cash dividends.

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Pending Merger

On May 26, 2000, Acme entered into the merger agreement with Key Components.  Closing of the merger is subject to
certain conditions, including mailing of a proxy statement, holding of a shareholders' meeting and a successful
shareholder vote, which have not yet been satisfied.  Acme is continuing to pursue the transaction with Key Components,
but the transaction will not be completed prior to the October 2, 2000 termination date.  On September 18, 2000, Key Components
agreed to Acme's request to extend the termination date to November 10, 2000, while asserting that the Company is in breach
of the merger agreement and reserving all of its rights thereunder.

Acme previously had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Miranda
Holdings Inc., under which Miranda had agreed to acquire Acme for $8.00 per share in cash plus assumption of debt.  The agreement with Miranda
was terminated on May 26, 2000, connection with the execution of the merger agreement with Key Components.  Acme paid a
termination fee to Miranda of $2,500,000 plus expenses.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Acme has traditionally financed its working capital requirements and capital spending with cash from operations.  The
Company borrowed against its line of credit to fund the one-time (pre-tax $3,219,000) expenses associated with Miranda and Key
Components merger activities.  Total outstanding debt increased $2,317,000 during fiscal 2000 due to these merger activities.  The
Company experienced nearly a $2,750,000 increase in working capital in fiscal 2000 (after excluding the affect of current and
long-term balance sheet reclassifications associated with the Company's debt restructure).  Both inventories and receivables increased
($1,550,000 and $1,534,000, respectively) in the Power Distribution Products Division in support of higher sales
($5,384,000) in fiscal 2000 compared with 1999.  The Power Distribution Products Division has been asked
to participate as a program supplier to one of its existing customers, the Power Systems Division of Invensys PLC (formerly Powerware).
Inventories increased as a result of the ramp-up on the Invensys Power Systems
Division program coupled with the affect of increased production volumes at the Company's Monterrey, Mexico
manufacturing operation.  Information regarding certain measures of the Company's liquidity is set forth below:

Long-Term Debt to Equity                 .5              .3              .7`

Capital expenditures were $2,366,000, $1,345,000 and $1,255,000 for fiscal 2000, 1999,  and 1998, respectively.  Fiscal 2000
capital expenditures included $1,140,000 for equipment and fixtures in the Company's Monterrey, Mexico plant.  The Company anticipates that fiscal 2001 capital
expenditures will approximate $2,700,000.

Management anticipates that operating activities will provide the required cash to fund the Company's working capital and
capital expenditures in fiscal 2001.

The Company has in place an unsecured credit agreement which provides for revolving loans and letters of credit up to
$15,000,000, with interest at the lower of prime or the London Interbank Eurodollar rate plus .6% to 1.4% range, with an outstanding
balance at June 30, 2000 of $6,717,000.  The credit agreement provides for a maturity date of December 31, 2002.  Under the terms of
the credit agreement, the Company is required to comply with certain restrictive covenants with respect to interest coverage,
debt-to-EBITDA, and fixed charge coverage ratios.  The covenants further provide for a minimum net worth test and annual maximum
capital expenditure and lease commitment thresholds.  The Company was in full compliance of these covenants at June 30, 2000.
Management believes that this credit arrangement will provide adequate liquidity for the future.

Year 2000 Affect

During fiscal 2000 the Company did not experience any significant difficulties or costs associated with the Year 2000
date change.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Acme reported net income of $802,000, or $.16 per share, on net sales of $80,914,000 for the year ended
June 30, 2000, compared with net income of $2,707,000, or $.53 per share, and $2,529,000, or $.50 per share on sales of $79,813,000
and $90,916,000 for 1999 and 1998, respectively.  Net income for fiscal 2000 includes one-time expenses of $1,980,000
(net of tax) related to the Company's pending merger with Key Components.  Also included in the 2000 and 1999 net
earnings is pension income (net of tax) of $192,000 and $437,000 respectively, compared to pension expense of $3,000 in 1998.

The Company reported a net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000 of $1,229,000 or $.24 per share on sales of $21,407,000.
Excluding the one-time expenses related to the pending merger, fourth quarter net earnings were $751,000, compared with the results
of the prior year fourth quarter of $1,021,000 on sales of $19,232,000.  The increase in sales of $2,175,000 (11%) in the quarter to
prior-year-quarter comparison was primarily due to the sales growth associated with the Invensys Power Systems program.  In spite of
the improved sales, fourth quarter earnings (exclusive of the merger related costs), were down from the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 due to
certain continued start-up and efficiency costs associated with the Company's Power Distribution Products Division's Monterrey,
Mexico manufacturing operation, as well as increases experienced in some commodity metal prices.

Fiscal 2000 annual sales increased $1,101,000 or 1.4% over the previous year, compared with a decrease of
$11,103,000 or 12.2% in the 1999 to 1998 comparison. The Companys Power
Distribution Products Division showed strong sales growth ($5,383,000 or 11%)
due to the addition of the Invensys Power Systems program, which involves
magnetics outsourcing. While the Power Distribution Products Division
experienced strong growth in sales, the Electronics division continued to
recover from the loss of the Cisco Systems business, albeit at a slower pace
than desired, and as such, reported $2,948,000 or 15% lower sales in 2000 than
in 1999. At the same time that the Electronics Division continued to cultivate
new customer opportunities within its business model target markets, the
divisions operating income line improved from quarterly losses to a small
profit earned in the fourth quarter. The Aerospace division experienced a
decline in sales of $1,334,000 or 12%. While order rates were similar to those
in prior years, shipment activity against the delinquent backlog in 1999 and
1998 contributed significantly to sales in those years. The division has
experienced a decline in the backlog from the $6.6 million level at June 1998 to
the $3.4 million level at June 2000.

Fiscal 1999 annual sales decreased $11,103,000, or 12.2%, from the previous year. A decrease in
sales of $9,113,000, or 32%, from 1998 sales of $28,708,000 to 1999 sales of
$19,595,000, was experienced in the Companys Electronics business. Reduced
sales were due to the loss of the Cisco program. Sales in the Companys
Aerospace business increased slightly ($119,000 or 1%) from $11,190,000 in 1998
to $11,309,000 in 1999 due to increased customer demand for FNC
batteries. Sales in the Companys Power Distribution Products
business were down $2,109,000, or 4%, generally reflective of the overall
non-residential electrical distribution market. The Companys share in this
market segment had remained essentially unchanged.

Future sales growth in the Companys Power Distribution Products Division will be
significantly influenced by participation in the Invensys Power Systems Division program,
introducing new products, and geographic expansion in Latin
America. Sales growth in the Companys Electronics Division will continue
to be largely dependent upon the continued success of the Divisions
business model incorporating complete systems design and manufacture, with
successes evidenced by shipment and order activity of recent. Sales growth in
the Companys Aerospace business will largely be dependent upon securing
contract extensions to existing programs, servicing the aftermarkets associated
with FNC battery systems on the Boeing 777 airplane and the success of
attracting new engineering and production programs pursued through bid
processes.

Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 70.4% in fiscal 2000, 71.4% in 1999, and 72.5% in fiscal 1998. The
gross margin percentage improved from 27.5% in 1998 to 28.6% in 1999 and to
29.6% in 2000. The margin improvement from 1999 to 2000 reflects the continued
operational efficiency improvements, coupled with favorable mix of aftermarket
product sales, in the Companys Aerospace business, where gross margins
climbed from 23.5% to 24.7%. Gross margins in the Companys Power
Distribution Products business declined from 35.7% in 1999 to 33.8% in 2000.
Though actual gross margin dollars were higher in 2000 than in 1999 (for this
division) due to increased sales, the margin percentage dropped primarily due to
the start-up costs and general inefficiencies associated with the new Monterrey,
Mexico operation. Gross profit margins in the Companys Electronics
Division improved from 13.8% in 1999 to 19.1% in 2000. This improvement reflects
both a more favorable mix of product sales combined with a continued commitment
to cost containment.

The margin improvement from fiscal 1998 to fiscal 1999 again reflects the operational efficiency
improvements experienced in the Companys Aerospace business, where gross
margins climbed from 20.6% to 23.5%. Gross margins in the Companys Power
Distribution Products business were essentially unchanged at 35.7% in 1999 and
35.8% in 1998. Gross profit margins in the Companys Electronics business
declined from 15.7% in 1998 to 13.8% in 1999. This occurred as a result of fewer
sales over which fixed operating costs could be allocated, combined with an
unusually large and significant expense accrual established for obsolete
inventory (in excess of $400,000 in 1999) associated with one end-of-life
customer program.

On a combined basis, research and engineering efforts were relatively constant in the
three-year comparison, as expenses as a percent of sales were 4.5% in fiscal 2000,
compared to 4.6% in fiscal 1999, and 4.5% in fiscal 1998. Actual 2000 expenditures were nearly
identical to 1999 levels. Actual expenditures in 1999 were approximately
$500,000 lower than 1998 levels as a result of resizing of the Electronics
business, with focused engineering efforts correlated to the business strategies
employed.

Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 18.5% in 2000, compared
with 17.4% in 1999 and 16.8% in 1998. Included within the 1999 and 1998 selling
and administrative expense is offsetting income of $265,000, $620,000 and
$566,000, respectively, related to performance incentives earned in the
Companys Aerospace business, based upon meeting specified customer
delivery schedules. Further included as an offset within the selling and
administrative expense line in 2000 is a $350,000 insurance recovery income,
associated with the Companys 1997 municipal landfill settlement. Both as a
percent of sales and actual costs, 2000 versus 1999 selling and administrative
expenses increased $1,102,000, exclusive of the performance incentive and
insurance recovery offsets. The majority of this increase is attributable to
the Power Distribution Products Division. The increase in selling and
administrative expenses primarily reflects the efforts incurred by the Division
in support of its Mexico start-up operation initiative, including heavy travel,
training, professional services, facility alignment and other related costs. As
a percent of sales, 1999 versus 1998 selling and administrative expense
increased, however, actual selling and administrative expenses incurred
(exclusive of the performance incentive offset) declined $1,313,000. The most
significant portion of this reduction is attributable to lower selling and
administrative costs in the Companys Power Distribution Products business
(reduction of $960,000), where lower shipping and commission costs were
experienced due to a sales mix that included more non-commissioned OEM direct
sales, combined with overall fewer sales in total. The business also incurred
lower costs associated with advertising literature, as well as experiencing a
favorable effect from bad debt recoveries. The Company realized additional cost
savings of nearly $300,000 related to its management information systems area
during 1999, as a result of the completion of the system conversion (mainframe
to client/server) in the prior year, thus avoiding the mainframe system costs
that were experienced in 1998. Selling and administrative expenses in the
Companys Aerospace and Electronics operations were similar in amounts when
comparing 2000, 1999 and 1998.

Expenses associated with the Miranda and Key Components merger transactions
totaled $3,219,000. Such expenses were incurred entirely in the fourth quarter
and consist primarily of a $2,500,000 termination fee and expenses paid to Miranda and
expenses for various professional services.

Interest expense decreased $234,000 from fiscal 1999 to fiscal 2000 and $775,000 from fiscal 1998 to fiscal 1999. The lower
interest expense reflects the significantly lower average outstanding debt
balances maintained during 2000 and 1999 as a result of the strong operating
cash flows and the lower average interest rates the Company negotiated in its
new credit agreement in January 2000.

Effective tax rates for the most recent three fiscal years were 49.5%, 39.5% and 38.2%, respectively.
The fluctuations in the effective rates are generally reflective of the
year-to-year variations in the permanent book-to-tax differences as a percent of
pre-tax earnings. The increase in the effective tax percentage for 2000 is
primarily the result of having a relatively low pre-tax income on which the
percentages are computed.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, as amended by SFAS No. 138, effective for all fiscal
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS 133 requires that an
entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. The
accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative will depend on the
intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. The Company does
not expect a material impact from adoption, as it currently does not utilize
derivative instruments as defined in the statement.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101
Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. The SAB, as amended, is
effective for the fourth fiscal quarter for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1999. The SAB summarizes certain of the SEC Staffs views in
applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in the
financial statements. The Company is still evaluating the impact from adoption,
but currently does not expect such impact to be material.

Portions of the narrative set forth in this Item 7 which
are not historical in nature, are forward-looking statements, based upon current
expectations, all of which are subject to risk and uncertainties, and are made
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. One can identify these forward-looking statements by their
use of words such as anticipates, believes,
intends, budgeted, and other words of similar meaning.
The Companys actual performance may differ materially from that
contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors,
which include, among other things, inaccurate assumptions, the condition of the
economy, the condition of the markets that the Company serves, and the success
of the Companys strategic plans and contemplated capital investments. The
Company does not assume the obligation to update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 7A - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Acme has operations in Mexico.  In the normal course of business, these operations are exposed to fluctuations in the value
of the Mexican currency.  Management does not consider this risk to be significant.

Acme is also exposed to market risk resulting from changes in interest rates.  Acme's bank
credit facility bears interest at a variable rate.  An increase in interest expense arising from an increase
in interest rates of 10% would not have a material effect on Acme.

Acme does not enter into derivative instruments in the normal course of business to mitigate the
impact of currency exchange rate risk or interest rate risk, nor are such instruments used for speculative
purposes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
         PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES:

Business

Acme Electric Corporation (the Company) designs, manufactures and markets power conversion equipment for electronic and
electrical systems.  Principal markets encompass computers, test equipment, information systems, military, aerospace,
telecommunications, and a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications requiring conversion of electrical energy
from one useable state to another.

The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Acme Electric de Mexico, S. de
R.L. de C.V. (Acme Mexico) and Servicios Acme de Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. (Servicios Acme).  All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The Company considers the functional currency of the two Mexican
subsidiaries to be the U.S. dollar for purposes of foreign currency translation.

Pending Merger

On May 26, 2000, the Company entered into a definitive merger agreement with Key Components LLC (Key Components),
under which Key Components agreed to acquire the Company for $9.00 per share in cash plus assumption of debt.  Closing of the transaction is conditioned upon
the satisfaction of several conditions precedent which have not yet been satisfied, including the mailing of a proxy statement, holding of a special
shareholders' meeting and a successful shareholder vote.

The Company is continuing to pursue the transaction with Key Components, but the transaction will not be consummated prior to the October 2, 2000 termination date.
On September 18, 2000, Key Components agreed to Acme's request to extend the termination date to November 10, 2000, while asserting that the Company is in breach of the merger agreement and reserving all of its rights thereunder.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

The major areas in which the Company utilizes estimates include deferred tax assets, reserves for insurance and legal
claims, environmental liabilities, customer receivable and inventory obsolescence reserves, product warranty reserves, revenue
recognition on long-term contracts, and the net realizable value of certain assets.  The amounts contained within these financial
statements represent management's best estimate of expected outcomes based on available information.  However, the Company realizes
that certain events could occur or fail to occur which would impact the estimates by a material amount in the future.

Inventories

Inventories are costed at the lower of cost or market and determined on a FIFO (first in, first out) basis.

Property and Depreciation

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed on the straight-line and the sum-of-the-year's-digits methods over
the estimated service lives of the assets.  At the time of retirement or other disposition of properties, the cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in income.  Maintenance and repairs are charged to
expense as incurred; renewals and betterments are capitalized.  The range of lives used as a basis for calculating depreciation is as
follows:

`Years

Buildings                                                               20-45

Machinery and equipment                                                  5-12

Furniture and fixtures                                                   8-10

Computers and software                                                    3-5`

Revenue Recognition

The Companys operations generally recognize revenue for the sale of their
respective products in the period of delivery. The Company does, however,
utilize the percentage-of-completion method for long-term contracts in its
aerospace business. Revenues or long-term contracts (primarily engineering or
development contracts) are recognized on the percentage-of-completion basis,
measured by the percentage of material, labor and overhead costs incurred to
date to total estimated material, labor and overhead costs for each long-term
contract.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. The
asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax
liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary
differences between the financial carrying values and the tax bases of the
related assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or
other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the
earnings of the Company.

The Company has in place a renegotiated credit agreement with a banking institution, which
provides for an unsecured revolving loan and letters of credit up to a maximum
of $15,000,000. The revolving loan carries an interest rate equal to the lower
of prime, or the London Interbank Eurodollar rate plus .60% to 1.40% range,
determined by a debt-to-Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and
Amortization (EBITDA) ratio threshold, with a maturity date of December 31,
2002. The Company pays in quarterly installments a maximum annual commitment fee
between 3/8 and 1/4 of 1% per annum on the unused portion. Under the terms of
the credit agreement, the Company is required to meet certain restrictive
covenants with respect to interest coverage, debt-to-EBITDA, and fixed charge
coverage ratios. The covenants further provide for a minimum net worth test and
annual maximum capital expenditure and lease commitment thresholds. At June 30,
2000, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the credit
agreement.

During the next five years, long-term debt, excluding the revolving loan, matures as follows:
2001 - $249,000; 2002 - $231,000; 2003 - $223,000; 2004 - $231,000; and 2005 -
$241,000.

5.               STOCK OPTION PLANS:

The 1998 Stock Option Plan became effective August 28, 1998. Options are granted at the fair
market value on the date of grant and become exercisable in whole, or in such
installments, and at such times as may be determined by the Board of Directors.
A total of 500,000 shares are available for grant under the Plan.

The 1996 Directors Stock Option Plan was adopted on April 29, 1996. Options are
granted quarterly to each eligible director in lieu of Director Fees and are
exercisable six months after the date of grant. The option price and number of
shares optioned are determined by formula to replace the value of cash
directors fees otherwise due for the preceding quarter. A total of 50,000
shares are available for grant under the Plan.

Options were granted under the 1989 Stock Option Plan at the fair market value on the day
preceding the date of the grant and are exercisable in varying amounts through
2007, with vesting at 25% a year from date of grant. Granting of stock options
under the 1989 Plan ceased in October 1998.

Options were granted under the 1981 Incentive Stock Option Plan at the fair market value on
the day preceding the date of the grant. The 1981 Plan expired in October 1992,
and all outstanding options granted under the Plan expired in October 1998.

The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for the
stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized in 2000,
1999, or 1998 for stock option awards made from either the 1998 or the 1989
Stock Option Plans, since the exercise price of the stock options granted under
the Stock Option Plan was not less than the fair market value of the Common
Stock at date of grant. Compensation expense of $40,000, $45,000, and $50,000
was recognized in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, for stock awards under the
1996 Directors Stock Option Plan. Had compensation expense for stock
option awards granted from the 1998 and 1989 Plans in 2000, 1999, and 1998 been
determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, net income and earnings per share would
be reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The Company used the Black Scholes pricing model to estimate the grant date present value of
stock options granted in 2000, 1999, and 1998. The estimated value per option
averaged approximately $1.92, $1.64, and $2.64 for options granted in 2000,
1999, and 1998, respectively. The values were calculated using the following
assumptions: (i) an option term of 5.5 years (representing the estimated period
between grant date and exercise date based on historical data); (ii) a risk-free
interest rate approximating 6.00%, 4.86%, and 5.99%, in 2000, 1999, and 1998,
respectively (representing the yield on a U.S. Treasury Security with remaining
term equal to the expected option term); (iii) expected volatility of 47% for
2000, 53% for 1999, and 52% for 1998; (iv) no future dividends paid; and (v) a
30% forfeiture rate used to reflect the estimate of the probability of
forfeiture prior to vesting.

The pro forma effects presented above are in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 123,
however, such effects are not representative of the effects to be reported in
future years due to the fact that options vest over several years and additional
awards generally are made each year.

6.               LEASES:

The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities and equipment, described in Note 4,
under lease agreements which have been capitalized, and various other equipment
under operating leases. Under the terms of the capital leases, the Company has
included $0 and $3,254,000 in the cost of property, plant and equipment June 30,
2000, and June 30, 1999, respectively. Accumulated depreciation of such assets
was $0 at June 30, 2000, and $1,280,000 at June 30, 1999. Total rental expense
under operating leases, which includes the headquarters facility, was
$1,053,000, $850,000 and $940,000 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Minimum
future rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases are
approximately $1,005,000 in 2001, $957,000 in 2002, $919,000 in 2003, $726,000
in 2004, and $261,000 in 2005.

The Company maintains two non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering
substantially all employees. The formula covering salaried employees provides
pension benefits based upon the employees individual yearly compensation.
Formulas covering hourly employees provide benefits of stated amounts for each
year of credited service.

It is the Companys policy to fund for each qualified plan at least an amount
necessary to satisfy the minimum requirements of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act. The amount to be funded is subject to annual review by management
and its consulting actuary. In recent years, funding contributions have been
restricted due to application of Internal Revenue Code full-funding limitations
to one or more of the plans.

The Company also maintains a non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) and a
non-qualified post-retirement benefits plan for certain executive officers of
the Company. The SERP provides benefits based upon an executives
compensation in the last year of service and is reduced by benefits received
from the salaried plan. The nonqualified benefits plan provides post retirement
health care. Six participants of this plan are retired and receiving payments
under the plan.

At June 30, 2000, approximately 1% of the plans assets are invested in cash and
equivalents, 69% are invested in equities, and the remaining 30% are invested in
fixed-income securities and annuities.

Data relating to the funding position of the plans were as follows:

The Company has recorded an intangible asset related to the SERP Plan of $280,828 and $212,328 at June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.  No additional minimum liability was recognized as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income at
June 30, 2000 and 1999.

The assumed rates used in the actuarial computations were:

For measurement purposes, a 5.0% annual trend rate of increase in the cost of covered health
care benefits was assumed, with claim costs to increase from .5% to 6.0% per
annum, based on age. The rate is assumed to remain the same over later years. A
one percentage point change in assumed health care cost trend rates would have
the following effects:

`________________________________________________________________________________

Dollars in Thousands                       +1%      -1%

The Company further maintains two 401(k) defined contribution plans, for which it bears the
costs of operating, but makes no direct or matching contributions. Eligible
employees of the Company may contribute up to 12% of qualified compensation,
subject to certain revenue code thresholds. Employees accounts are at all
times fully vested and nonforfeitable.

The Company, through its Employee Stock Purchase Plan, provides to employees with one or more
years of service the opportunity to purchase stock of the Company at 90% of its
fair market value, limited to a maximum of 465 shares in any calendar year. The
Company has suspended purchase activity in this program pending
the Key Components merger transaction.

10.         MAJOR CUSTOMERS:

Power conversion equipment sales encompass markets wherein the demands of any one customer may
vary greatly due to changes in technology and market strategy. No customer of
the Company accounted for more than 10% of sales in fiscal years 2000 or 1999.
One customer of the Company accounted for 17.2% of fiscal 1998 sales. No
customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Companys accounts
receivable balance at June 30, 2000 or 1999.

11.         SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHTS PLAN:

The Companys Board of Directors has adopted a shareholders rights plan
(the Rights Plan) and declared a dividend of one Right for each two
shares of the Companys Common Stock outstanding. Each Right entitles the
registered holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at a purchase price of
$50.00 per share.

In the event that, at any time following distribution of the
Rights, (i) the Company is the surviving corporation in a merger
with a third party and its Common Stock is not changed or exchanged, (ii) a
Person becomes the owner of more than 20% of the then outstanding
shares of Common Stock (Acquiring Person), (iii) an Acquiring Person
engages in one or more self-dealing transactions as set forth in the
Rights Agreement between the Company and its transfer agent, or (iv) during such
time as there is an Acquiring Person, an event occurs which results in such
Acquiring Persons ownership interest being increased by more than 1%
(e.g., a reverse stock split), each holder of the Rights, other than the
Acquiring Person, will thereafter have the right to receive, upon exercise,
Common Stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash, property or other securities
of the Company) having a value equal to two times the exercise price of the
Rights.

Termination of the Rights Plan is a condition to the closing of the merger with Key Components.

12.              COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Companys Cuba, NY facility provides security interest to a taxable
Industrial Development Revenue Bond (Series B) issued in 1993 by the Allegany
County Industrial Development Agency. While the county is responsible to make
annual payments against this outstanding debt (approximately $500,000 at June
30, 2000), the Companys plant acts as a security interest to the Bond
holder.

In the normal course of business, certain contingent liabilities are outstanding which are not
reflected in the financial statements. The Company does not expect such general
contingencies to have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial
position or results of operations in any future reporting period. See also
Pending Merger section of Note 1.

13.              SEGMENT REPORTING DISCLOSURES

The Company operates in three business segments: Aerospace, Electronics, and Power
Distribution Products. The Companys reportable segments are strategic
business units that offer different products and services to different markets.
The segments are managed separately, based on the fundamental differences of
their operations. Each business segment has a separate manufacturing facility.

Operations in the Aerospace segment provide design, manufacturing, and support services to the
military and commercial aerospace market. Products include battery chargers,
power supplies, and battery backup systems for a variety of commercial and
military aircraft applications, as well as certain ground-based military
applications. The Aerospace segment has a production facility in Tempe, Arizona.

The Electronics segment is focused on the electronic systems integration market and products for
the emerging cable industry. The Electronics segment has a production facility
in Cuba, New York.

The Power Distribution Products segment provides power conditioning solutions to
industrial customers, delivered primarily through electrical distributors and
related distribution channels. The core products are industrial transformers and
related power conditioning products. The Power Distribution Products segment has
its primary production facility in Lumberton, North Carolina and a supportive
facility in Monterrey, Mexico.

Typical customers in all segments are well known companies in the aerospace,
electronics, and power distribution business.

Total net sales by segment consist entirely of sales to unaffiliated customers. Operating profit
does not include the following items: general corporate income and expense,
investment income, interest expense, or income taxes. Identifiable assets by
segment consist of those assets that are, or will be, used in the segmental
operations. Corporate assets consist principally of cash, business enterprise
system, deferred taxes, and other assets.

Information by industry segment is as follows:

**Includes shares which are exercisable under the 1989 Stock
Option Plan, the 1996 Directors Stock Option Plan, and 1998 Stock Option
Plan.

Each non-employee member of the Board of Directors receives payment in the form of
stock options under the 1996 Directors Stock Option Plan. Each quarter
non-employee directors are entitled to receive an option to purchase shares of
the Common Stock of the Company at 30% of the fair market value of such shares
when the option is granted. The number of shares subject to each option is
determined by dividing the nominal amount of quarterly fees of $2,500 by 70% of
the fair market value of each share. Fair market value is the average of the
high and low sales prices of a share on the NASDAQ Market on the most recent
prior trading day. In addition, non-employee directors are eligible to be
selected as participants in the 1998 Stock Option Plan. During fiscal 2000,
options to purchase 1,500 shares of the Common Stock at an
exercise price of $4.9375 per share were granted to each non-employee director. Effective May
2000, the Company suspended the granting of new options due to the pending
merger transaction with Key Components, and subsequently compensated the non-employee members of the
Board of Directors by cash payment of $2,500 per quarter.

# EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE-IN-CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS

Mr. McKenna has a three-year employment agreement with the Company. Each of Messrs. Corwin,
Gleason and Arena has a two-year employment agreement. The terms of the
agreements are automatically extended unless either party gives timely notice to
the other not to extend. Under the agreements, the executives receive a base
salary, plus bonus, as determined by the Board of Directors. In the event of a
breach of agreement by the Company following a change in control of the Company
(as defined in the agreement), each is entitled to receive, for the remainder of
the term of his agreement, an amount equal to his base salary at the time of
breach plus a bonus. In addition, each is entitled to receive continued medical,
dental, and disability and life insurance benefits for life or until he accepts
other full-time employment. Over the term of each agreement, contributions will
continue to be made on behalf of each officer to the Companys Pension Plan
for Salaried Employees and, in the case of Messrs. McKenna and Corwin, to the
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. Mr. McKenna is also entitled to
severance benefits equivalent to six months salary (except for termination
for cause) and to the continuation of certain other benefits during the
remainder of the term of his agreement. Under the agreements, the officers must
preserve confidential Company information and refrain from any activities that
may compete with the Companys business.

# 1996 DIRECTORS STOCK OPTION PLAN

The 1996 Directors Stock Option Plan (the 1996 Plan) was approved by
the Companys shareholders on October 31, 1996. The purpose of the 1996
Plan is to facilitate ownership in the Company by non-employee directors of the
Company by providing them with a convenient means to purchase Common Stock of
the Company and, thereby, to share in its progress and success. Currently, four
directors participate in the 1996 Plan.

The grant of options under the 1996 Plan occurs automatically on the first day of each
quarter of a calendar year to each eligible director in lieu of director fees
attributable to service as a director during such quarter. A total of 50,000
shares of Common Stock are available for grant under the 1996 Plan.

The purchase price of each share of Common Stock subject to an option is equal to 30% of the
fair market value (determined as provided in the 1996 Plan) of a share of Common
Stock on the date the option is granted. The number of shares of Common Stock
subject to the option will be equal to the director fees for the preceding
quarter, divided by 70% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on
the date the option is granted. The discount amount for the number of shares
granted replaces the value of the cash director fees that would otherwise be
due. Each eligible director will accrue director fees of $2,500 each quarter for
credit toward the grant of options under the 1996 Plan.

An option becomes exercisable in full six months after the date of grant, and, to the
extent not previously exercised, will expire ten years after the date of grant
or, in some cases, earlier pursuant to provisions in the 1996 Plan relating to a
directors termination of service.

Each option will be evidenced by a written option agreement executed by the Company and the
director. Stock must be paid for in full in cash when purchased upon the
exercise of options. Upon exercise, the optionee will recognize ordinary income
in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the Common Stock
over the purchase price, and the Company will be entitled to a deduction in the
same amount.

Options are not transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or
pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Effective May 2000, the Company suspended the
granting of new options due to the pending merger transaction with Key Components.

# 1998 STOCK OPTION PLAN

The 1998 Stock Option Plan (the 1998 Plan) was approved by the Companys
shareholders on October 30, 1998. The purpose of the Plan is to advance the
interests of the Company and its shareholders by providing a long-term incentive
compensation program that will be an incentive to key employees and non-employee
directors of the Company and its subsidiaries whose contributions are important
to the continued success of the Company and its subsidiaries and enhance their
ability to attract and retain in their employ and as directors highly qualified
persons for the successful conduct of their businesses.

Under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, certain individuals are granted, for a period of up to ten
years, beginning with the date of the grant, options to purchase specified
amounts of the Companys Common Stock for 100% of the fair market value of
the stock, subject to option, on the date of the Options grant. A total of
500,000 shares of Common Stock are available for grant of options under the
Plan.

Effective May 2000, the Company suspended the granting of new options due to the pending
merger transaction with Key Components.

# PENSION PLAN

Executive officers of the Company, including those named in the Summary Compensation
Table, are covered by the Retirement Plan for Employees of the Company
(Pension Plan). Messrs. McKenna and Corwin are also covered by the
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (Supplemental Plan). These
Plans provide for regular monthly payments to retirees. Normal retirement age
under the Plans is 65. The Plans also provide for early and disability
retirement. The normal monthly retirement benefit is reduced by up to one-half
of one percent for each month between the date benefits begin and a
participants normal retirement date in the event of early retirement. The
disability retirement benefit is the benefit accrued by a participant to the
disability retirement date. Benefits are not subject to any deduction for Social
Security or other payments. The cost of the Plans is borne by the Company.

The normal retirement benefit under the Pension Plan is one percent of the average monthly
base salary for each year of credited service at December 31, 1991, plus 1.5
percent of monthly W-2 wages earned in each year of credited service after
December 31, 1991. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, limits the
amount of benefits payable under the Pension Plan, as well as the amount of
compensation used to determine those benefits. For benefits accruing in plan
years beginning after 1997, no more than $160,000 (indexed for inflation) in
annual compensation may be taken into account. This threshold was indexed to
$170,000 effective January 1, 2000.

The annual monthly retirement benefit under the Supplemental Plan is one-twelfth of the
product of two percent of annual base salary at retirement multiplied by years
of credited service to a maximum of 30 years, less the benefit payable under the
Pension Plan. The benefits of certain individuals covered by the Supplemental
Plan may be subject to limitations. The table below illustrates the maximum
total amount of annual pension payments, with the qualified plan portion
computed on a straight life annuity basis, and the supplemental portion
calculated on a 100% Joint and Survivor basis, under both the Pension Plan and
the Supplemental Plan for an employee whose annual base salary at retirement and
years of service are as specified:

`Base Salary and Bonus         10 Years         20 Years        30 Years
    at Retirement             of Service       of Service      of Service
     $ 55,000                  $11,000          $ 22,000        $ 33,000
       90,000                   18,000            36,000          54,000
      140,000                   28,000            56,000          84,000
      190,000                   38,000            76,000         114,000
      250,000                   50,000           100,000         150,000
      300,000                   60,000           120,000         180,000
      350,000                   70,000           140,000         210,000`

The term "base  salary and bonus" used in the above table  refers to the columns of the Summary  Compensation  Table on page 42 labeled
"Salary" and "Bonus".

For the purpose of  determining  the pension  benefits  payable under the Pension Plan and the  Supplemental  Plan,  estimated
years of credited  service as of the end of the calendar  year 1999 covered by the Plans for  executive  officers  named in the Summary
Compensation Table are as follows:  Mr. McKenna, 7 years; Mr. Corwin, 28 years; Mr. Gleason, 32 years; and Mr. Arena, 4 years.

The estimated  annual  benefits  payable under the Pension Plan upon retirement at normal  retirement age for Messrs.  Gleason
and Arena are $63,000 and  $39,000,  respectively.  The  combined  estimated  annual  benefits  payable  under the Pension Plan and the
Supplemental  Plan upon  retirement at normal  retirement age for Messrs.  McKenna and Corwin are $177,000 and $122,000,  respectively.
The above annual  benefits were computed on a straight life annuity  basis for the qualified  plan,  100% Joint and Survivor  basis for
the Supplemental Plan portion and assume continued employment to age 65 with no increase in compensation covered by the Plans.

Benefits are presently being paid to some  individuals  covered under the  Supplemental  Plan. The Company has purchased,  and
is the  beneficiary  of,  insurance on the lives of  participants  under the  Supplemental  Plan.  The  proceeds of the  policies  will
reimburse the Company for some or all costs, including  Supplemental Plan benefits,  insurance premiums and a factor for the use of the
Company's  money.  It is expected that the  Supplemental  Plan will aid the Company in continuing to retain and motivate key employees.
Messrs. McKenna and Corwin will be eligible to receive benefits under the Supplemental Plan.

# EMPLOYEE SAVINGS AND PROTECTION PLAN

Employees of the Company are eligible to participate  in the Company's  Employee  Savings and Protection  Plan on the first of
the month  following  employment.  Under the Plan,  participants  may  contribute up to twelve (12) percent of their gross earnings for
investment in cash,  stock and mutual  investment  funds.  The Company bears the cost of operating the Plan, but does not make matching
contributions.

# REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is made up of only outside directors and
oversees the Companys executive compensation programs. After consideration
of the Committees recommendations, the full Board of Directors reviews and
approves the salaries of all elected officers. Any directors who are full-time
employees are excused from voting on their own compensation. The Committee also
oversees the other elements of executive compensation, including annual
incentive awards and stock options.

General Philosophy

The philosophy of the Company is that annual compensation should adjust to Company performance,
and long-term incentives should align with creating shareholder value. The
Committee believes that operating criteria should determine annual cash
incentive compensation, and market-based criteria, as measured by the market
price of the Companys Common Stock, are better tied to performance periods
longer than a year. Individual compensation should reflect operating unit
performance for division executives and Company performance for selected elected
officers, with the purpose being to attract and retain qualified executives.

Salaries

Salaries are based upon a commercially available study of the durable goods manufacturing
sector for companies of a similar size. Salary payments are primarily intended
to reward current and past performance based upon job experiences and comparison
to peers both inside and outside the Company.

Annual Incentive Awards

Annual incentive awards are designed to motivate and reward the individual for personal
contributions to the success of the Company. The Executive Incentive Plan (EIP)
rewards selected elected officers based upon return on equity. A minimum
threshold based on recognized financial return rates, which incorporate
investment risk, must be met before any payments are made. A percentage of
pre-tax earnings above the threshold is distributed as a percentage of base
salary.

The Board of Directors can also make individual awards based on their assessment of
contributions to the tactical and strategic goals set by the Chief Executive
Officer and approved by them at the beginning of the year.

The Management Incentive Plan (MIP) rewards key managers and officers based upon their
respective divisions operating profit, net asset utilization and sales
growth. The MIP pays only for improvement and is distributed as a percentage of
base salary. The MIP has a maximum allowable payout of 40% of salary.

Every other employee of the Company participates in an annual incentive plan.

Stock Options

Stock options accomplish the objective of further motivating executives to create shareholder
value. Options are reviewed on an annual basis. Options are granted with an
exercise price equal to the closing price of Acme stock on the day of the grant,
creating recipient value only as the stock increases in market price. Stock
options granted under 1998 Stock Option Plan to certain executive officers in
fiscal year 2000 are shown in the table of Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year on
page 42. With the approval of the 1998 Stock Option Plan by the shareholders at
the 1998 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the granting of options under the 1989
Stock Option Plan ceased. The granting of any new stock options was suspended in
May 2000, due to the pending merger transaction.

Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer

The Chief Executive Officers salary was determined by the Committee, in
accordance with the above stated philosophy.

An incentive payment was made to
the CEO based on fiscal 2000 earnings exceeding the required return threshold on
beginning shareholder equity, as established by the Board of Directors.

The Committee believes that both annual and long-term compensation for the last three years
reflect this statement on philosophy.

# Report of Independent Accountants

## To the Board of Directors of Acme Electric
Corporation

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing
under Item 14(a)(1) present fairly, in all material aspects, the financial position of Acme Electric Corporation and its
subsidiaries at June 30, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their operations and
their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2000
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed
in the index appearing under Item 14(a)(2) present
fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in
conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial
statements and the financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the
Companys management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and the financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements,
the company has entered into a merger agreement with Key Components LLC.
