NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Six Months Ended October 31, 2004

(unaudited)



|1. | Basis of Presentation
|-- | ---------------------

In the opinion of the
management of Flow International Corporation (the Company), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items and accruals necessary to fairly present the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. These interim financial statements do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States, and should be read in conjunction with the April 30, 2004 consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form
10-K/A. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the Companys financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Operating results for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004 may not be indicative of future
results.



|2. | Restatement
|-- | -----------

The Company has identified errors in
the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2003 related to the application of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52 (FAS 52), Foreign Currency
Translation, to inter-company balances, reconciliation of inter-company accounts, and the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In addition, the Company has reduced its interest expense, net in the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations resulting from a correction in the allocation of proceeds between the subordinated debt and warrants. The Company also restated its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of April 30, 2004 as described in the Form 10-K/A
filed on December 20, 2004. The following discussion relates to the restatement of the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2003:



| |  | The Company has reviewed its treatment of foreign currency gains and losses on inter-company balances under FAS 52. The Company had been including such gains and losses in
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss when translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries. Such gains and losses should have been reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations because the related inter-company balances
were not of a long-term investment nature. The Company has reflected appropriate adjustments in Other Income, net.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The Company determined that certain of its inter-company accounts were not properly reconciled. As a result, certain historical entries that were previously recorded as foreign
currency translation losses in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss should have been recorded to Cost of Sales in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | In addition, the Company has corrected the reporting in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the effects of foreign exchange rate changes on cash for the three
and six month periods ended October 31, 2003. The impact of this correction in treatment is to record the effects of foreign exchange rate changes in the appropriate categories in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | The Company also determined that the allocation of proceeds received from the subordinated debt and detachable warrants in May 2001 was incorrect. The correction resulted in a
reduction in debt discount of $1.9 million in May 2001 and related reductions in Interest Expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the subsequent periods.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



As a result of the matters described above, the Company is restating its
condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2003 to include the following: a credit to Cost of Sales of $104,000 and $33,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003, respectively,

resulting from the Companys review of historical inter-company reconciliations. These adjustments represent certain reconciling items that were treated
as translation losses at the time of reconciliation and recorded to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. These restatements properly reflect the transactions in Cost of Sales. In addition, the Company is
restating its condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2003 to include a gain of $1.4 million and $2.4 million, respectively, in Other Income, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of
Operations related to unrealized foreign currency gains. The Company had previously recorded unrealized foreign currency gains and losses from inter-company accounts to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. The Company has also reduced its interest
expense $50,000 and $97,000 for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2003, respectively, related to the re-valuation of debt discount. In addition to the corrections, the Company has provided for appropriate tax benefits (provisions)
related to the restated amounts.



The Company has restated its
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended October 31, 2003 to correctly reflect the impact of exchange rate changes on cash as described above.



The following items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows have been restated as follows:

|3. | Liquidity
|-- | ---------

The Company has incurred losses since
fiscal 2002. The Company has been able to satisfy its needs for working capital and capital expenditures, due in part to its ability to access adequate financing arrangements. The Company expects that operations will continue, with the realization
of assets and

(unaudited)



discharge of current liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Compliance with future debt covenants requires the Company to meet its operating
projections, which include achieving certain revenues, costs, consistent operating margins, and working capital targets.



The Company believes that its existing cash and credit facilities at October 31, 2004 are adequate to fund its operations through August 1, 2005, the
expiration of the Companys Senior Credit Agreement. Refer to Note 12 for discussion of credit facilities. If the Company fails to achieve its planned revenues, costs and working capital objectives, management believes it has the ability to
curtail capital expenditures and reduce costs to levels that will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its cash requirements and debt covenants through July 31, 2005.



However, demand for the Companys products and timing of cost reductions are difficult to project. If the Company is
unable to comply with the debt covenants, or a material adverse change occurs, and the lenders are unwilling to waive or amend the debt covenants, certain components of the long-term obligations, senior credit facility and notes payable would become
callable, and the Company would be required to seek alternative financing. The Company is continuing to evaluate its current capital structure and may investigate alternative sources of financing. Alternative sources of financing may not be
available if required or, if available, may not be on satisfactory terms. If the Company is unable to obtain alternative financing on satisfactory terms, it would have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, and the Company would
be required to further curtail capital spending, further reduce expenses, and otherwise modify its planned operations including potentially discontinuing operations.



|4. | Restructuring and Financial Consulting
|-- | --------------------------------------

Since May
2003, the Company has been executing a plan intended to return it to profitability through reductions in headcount, consolidation of facilities and operations, and closure or divestiture of selected operations.



The following table summarizes accrued restructuring activity (in thousands):

The remaining accrued
severance costs of $112,000 as of October 31, 2004 will be paid over the next several months and the remaining accrued facility exit costs of $631,000, which consist of long-term lease commitments, net of expected sublease income, will be paid
primarily over the next several years.



For the six month
periods ended October 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company has incurred $623,000 and $1.2 million of financial consulting costs related to the efforts to refinance its Subordinated Debt.

|5. | Discontinued Operations
|-- | -----------------------

At April 30, 2003, the
Company reported one of its subsidiaries as a discontinued operation. This wholly owned subsidiary of the Company was involved in the decommissioning of oil wells. On May 16, 2003, the Company consummated the sale of the subsidiarys assets,
recording proceeds of $1.8 million and a gain on the sale of $650,000. The Company retains no future interest in the subsidiary. The Company presented the subsidiarys results of operations as discontinued operations, net of applicable taxes,
on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended October 31, 2003. The results of discontinued operations, for the six months ended October 31, 2003, are summarized below:

|6. | Loss Per Share and Stock-Based Compensation
|-- | -------------------------------------------

Basic
earnings (loss) per share represents net income (loss) available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share represents net income (loss) available to
common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding including the potentially dilutive impact of stock options and warrants, where appropriate. Potential common share equivalents of stock options and warrants are
completed by the treasury stock method and are included in the denominator for computation of earnings per share if such equivalents are dilutive.



The effect of all stock options (a total of 2,074,769 and 2,194,802 at October 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively) and warrants (a total of 1,160,000 shares
and 860,000 shares at October 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively) have been excluded from the diluted weighted average share denominator for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004 and 2003, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.



The Company has engaged an independent third party in a Consulting
Agreement effective March 1, 2003 to provide executive coaching and organizational services. In partial consideration for such services, the Company issued 20,608 unregistered shares of common stock, valued at $55,000 of which $50,000 was expensed
in June 2004 and $5,000 was expensed in September 2004.



As
further described in Note 12, on July 28, 2004, in connection with the execution of amendments to its Senior Credit Agreement, the Company issued the senior lenders 150,000 detachable $.01 warrants as a fee. Also, in connection with the July 28,
2004 amendment of its Subordinated Debt Agreement, the Company issued the subordinated lender 150,000 detachable $.01 warrants as a fee. The 300,000 warrants have been valued at $960,000 and are being amortized to interest expense for the period
from August 1, 2004 through July 31, 2005. The issuance of shares and warrants was exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 because these were not transactions involving a public offering.

|Expected lives           |  | Six years   |  | Six years  
|Expected dividend yields |  | 0%          |  | 0%         
|Expected volatility      |  | 62.0%       |  | 61.1%      



During the three and
six months ended October 31, 2004, the Company recorded total employee non-cash compensation expense of $129,000 and $438,000, respectively, and $47,000 and $160,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003, respectively, related to
various compensatory arrangements which provide common stock or restricted stock units, rather than options, to the Board of Directors and executive management.



The table below presents the expense components related to the various common stock arrangements for employees and Directors for the three and six
months ended October 31, 2004 and 2003. Please refer to the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for a further discussion of compensatory arrangements.

|11. | Income Taxes
|--- | ------------

Due to a history of losses and
uncertainty of future earnings, the Company continues to provide a full valuation allowance against its domestic net operating losses and certain foreign net operating losses. Further, the Company has also placed a valuation allowance against
certain other deferred tax assets based on the expected reversal of such deferred tax assets and liabilities. The domestic net operating losses can be carried forward 20 years to offset domestic profits in future periods and expire in fiscal 2023
and other net operating losses do not have an expiration date.



In fiscal 2004, the Company determined it was no longer able to permanently defer foreign earnings and recorded a $1.9 million liability for withholding taxes payable on future repatriation of foreign earnings. During the six months ended
October 31, 2004, the Company repatriated $3.5 million from certain foreign subsidiaries and plans to continue to repatriate additional earnings in the future.



For the three and six months ended October 31, 2004 and 2003, the tax provision consists of current expense related to foreign jurisdictions which are
profitable. In addition, certain jurisdictions (principally Germany and the United States) reported net operating losses for which no tax benefit was recognized as it is more likely than not that such benefit will not be realized.

On July 28, 2004, the
Company signed an amendment to its current Senior Credit Agreement (the Amendment). The Amendment provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $42.7 million and an extension of the credit agreement through August 1, 2005. The Company
evaluated the Amendment under EITF 98-14, Debtors Accounting for Changes in Line-of-Credit or Revolving-Debt Arrangements, and concluded that the borrowing capacity increased under the Amendment. The commitment reduces to $41.0
million at April 30, 2005. Interest rates under the Senior Credit Agreement are at Bank of Americas prime rate in effect from time to time plus 4% and increase by one percentage point each quarter beginning November 1, 2004. The Company
follows EITF 86-15, Increasing Rate Debt when recording interest expense at a constant estimated effective rate over the term of the Senior Credit Agreement. The prime rate at October 31, 2004 was 4.75%. The Amendment also requires the
issuance of 150,000 detachable $.01 warrants as a fee and a quarterly commitment fee of1/2of 1% (50 basis points) of the total commitment. The Amendment requires compliance with minimum EBITDA and
collateral levels and provides limits for spending on research and engineering as well as limits on capital expenditures. In addition, the Companys agreements with its senior and subordinated lenders include subjective acceleration clauses
which permit the lenders to demand payment in the event of a material adverse change. The Amendment also has provisions for mandatory commitment reductions in the event of a sale of assets outside the ordinary course of business or in the event of
an equity financing. Commitment level reductions are based on a percentage of the cash generated by these activities net of applicable fees. The Company also pays an annual letter of credit fee equal to 5% of the amount available to be drawn under
each outstanding letter of credit. The annual letter of credit fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The Company makes use of its Senior Credit Agreement to fund its operations during the course of the year. As of October 31, 2004, the Company had
borrowed $34.2 million against the Senior Credit Agreement and had $5.5 million of domestic unused line of credit, net of outstanding letters of credit of $3.0 million and subject to covenant restrictions. The process whereby the Companys
current excess cash receipts directly reduce the outstanding senior credit facility balance combined with material adverse change language in the Amendment results in the balance outstanding being classified as a current liability at October 31,
2004 and April 30, 2004.



On July 28, 2004, The John
Hancock Life Insurance Company and affiliated entities (Hancock) amended the Subordinated Debt Agreement to continue to defer interest through April 30, 2005, which will total an

additional $5.3 million. All deferred payments accrue interest at the rate of 15%. In addition Hancock received 150,000 detachable $.01 warrants as an
amendment fee. As of October 31, 2004, the balance outstanding under the Subordinated Debt Agreement includes principal, net of unamortized discount of $4.5 million, of $40.0 million. Half of the principal is due on each of April 30, 2007 and
2008.



The 300,000 warrants discussed above allow for purchase
of common stock and were recorded at a total estimated fair value of approximately $960,000. The 150,000 warrants issued to the senior lenders have a five year contractual life and are exercisable at the earlier of: 1) July 31, 2005 or
2) a time when our total outstanding debt balance has been reduced to $6 million or less. The 150,000 warrants issued to Hancock are immediately exercisable and have a seven year contractual life. The estimated fair value of the warrants
was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation method and the following additional assumptions: a) risk-free rate of 4.23%, b) volatility of 62.0%, c) grant date stock price of $3.21, and d) expected lives consistent with the
contractual lives.



On December 6, 2004, the Company signed an
additional amendment to its Senior Credit Agreement (Additional Amendment). The Additional Amendment increases the sub-facility for letters of credit from $5 million to $13 million.



Both senior and subordinated credit facilities require payment of significant
additional fees if certain reductions in outstanding debt levels do not occur. The amended Senior Credit Agreement requires the Company to pay a $1.0 million fee if the total commitment at April 30, 2005 is greater than $38.0 million. The
amended Subordinated Debt Agreement assesses a $3.0 million deferred fee should the Company be unable to make the April 30, 2005 interest payment in cash by June 15, 2005



The Senior Credit Agreement and Subordinated Debt Agreement are collateralized by a general lien on all of the
Companys assets. The Company is required to comply with certain covenants in the Senior Credit Agreement, and Subordinated Debt Agreement, including restrictions on dividends and transactions with affiliates, limitations on additional
indebtedness, capital expenditures, research and engineering expenses, and maintenance of EBITDA ratios and collateral values. The Company was in compliance with all covenants in its amended credit facilities as of October 31, 2004.



The Company has three unsecured credit facilities in Taiwan with a
commitment totaling 160 million New Taiwanese Dollars (US$4.8 million at October 31, 2004), bearing interest at rates ranging from 1.6% to 2% per annum. The credit facilities have maturities between 12 and 36 months and can be extended for
like periods, as needed, at the banks option. At October 31, 2004, the balance outstanding under these credit facilities amounts to US$3.5 million, $2.3 million of which is shown under Notes Payable while the remaining
$1.2 million is classified under Long-Term Obligations.



The Company has also obtained a seven-year secured long-term loan, expiring in 2011, in the amount of 179 million New Taiwanese Dollars (US$5.4 million at October 31, 2004) bearing interest at an annual rate of 2.6%. The loan is
collateralized by the Companys recently completed manufacturing facility. In June 2004, the Company borrowed $4.1 million against this facility and repatriated $3.5 million to the U.S. to reduce amount outstanding under the senior
credit facility. The balance at October 31, 2004 is included in Long-Term Obligations.



The Company has an unsecured credit facility in Sweden totaling 50 million Swedish Krona (US$7.1 million at October 31, 2004), bearing interest at the rate of 4.25% per annum. At October 31, 2004,

the balance outstanding amounts to US$3.2 million. The facility, which had an expiration date of December 2004, has been extended to December 2005 for a
total borrowing capacity of 25 million Swedish Krona and can be extended for another 12 months at the banks option.



|13. | Warranty Obligations
|--- | --------------------

The Companys estimated
obligations for warranty are accrued concurrently with the revenue recognized. The Company makes provisions for its warranty obligations based upon historical costs incurred for such obligations adjusted, as necessary, for current conditions and
factors. Due to the significant uncertainties and judgments involved in estimating the Companys warranty obligations, including changing product designs and specifications, the ultimate amount incurred for warranty costs could change in the
near term from the current estimate.



The following table shows
the fiscal 2005 year-to-date activity for the Companys warranty accrual:

|14. | Commitments and Contingencies
|--- | -----------------------------

At any time, the
Company may be involved in certain legal proceedings in addition to the Omax matter described below. As of October 31, 2004, the Company has accrued its estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims. This estimate has been
developed in consultation with legal counsel and is based upon an analysis of potential outcomes, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. The Company does not believe these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on
its consolidated financial position. However, it is possible that future results of operations or cash flows for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by changes in the Companys assumptions, or the
effectiveness of its strategies, related to these proceedings.



The Company has been notified by the pension plan administrator of its Swedish pension plan that it is required to fund $800,000 of its accrued but unfunded pension obligation of $2.9 million based on the financial performance of the
Company. The Company funded this obligation from payments made in June 2004 and in August 2004. The remaining unfunded obligation is classified as a long term liability.



On November 18, 2004, Omax Corporation (Omax) filed suit against the Company alleging that the Companys
products infringe on Omaxs patents. The suit also seeks to have a specific patent held by the Company declared invalid. The Company filed its response on December 8, 2004. In its answer, the Company asserts that it does not infringe
Omaxs patents, that Omaxs patents are invalid and unenforceable and seeks damages from Omax for violation of antitrust laws. The Company also denies Omaxs assertion that the Companys patent is invalid, unenforceable and not
infringed. Although the suit seeks damages of over $100 million, the Company believes Omaxs claims are without merit and intends not only to contest Omaxs allegations of infringement but also to vigorously pursue its claims with regard
to its own patent.

(unaudited)



temporary impairment models for marketable debt and equity securities accounted for under SFAS 115 and non-marketable equity securities accounted for under
the cost method. The EITF developed a basic three-step model to evaluate whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired. In September 2004, the FASB approved the issuance of FASB Staff Position EITF 03-1-1, which delays the effective date
until additional guidance is issued for the application of the recognition and measurement provisions of EITF 03-1. The adoption of this accounting principle is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys financial position or
results of operations.



In November 2004, the FASB issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, Inventory Costs - an Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. This statement clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and spoilage,
requiring these items be recognized as current-period charges. In addition, this statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The provisions
of this statement are effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 and will become effective for the Company beginning in May 2006. The full impact that the adoption of this statement will have on the
Companys financial position and results of operations has not yet been determined.



In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004). This statement addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in
which a company receives employee services in exchange for the companys equity instruments or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the companys equity securities or may be settled by the issuance of these securities. SFAS 123R
eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation using APB 25 and generally requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair value method. The provisions of this statement are effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005 and will become effective for the Company beginning with the second quarter of the fiscal 2006 year. The Company has not yet determined which transition method it will use to adopt SFAS 123R. The full
impact that the adoption of this statement will have on the Companys financial position and results of operations will be determined by share-based payments granted in future periods.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT:

Statements made in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include guidance on revenues
for fiscal 2005. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by the use of such terms as may, will, expect, believe, anticipate, estimate, plan,
potential, continue or similar words, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. We caution investors that forward-looking statements are only predictions based on our current expectations about
future events. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially
from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. You should be aware that our actual results could differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement due to a number of factors, which include, but are not
limited to the following: the special risk factors and uncertainties set forth below; our belief that the existing cash and credit facilities at October 31, 2004 are adequate to fund our operations through July 31, 2005 and that if the Company fails
to achieve its planned revenues, costs and working capital objectives, management has the ability to curtail capital expenditures and reduce costs to levels that will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its cash requirements and debt
covenants through July 31, 2005; our exposure to additional costs relating to our Restructuring Plan or the risk that we will not achieve significant cost savings as a result of the Restructuring Plan; the belief that timing issues associated with
payment of accounts receivable will not impact our short term liquidity requirements; our expectations that the benefits from our restructuring activities should continue for the remainder of fiscal 2005 and that these changes should help us to
achieve our forecasts; that our ability to curtail capital expenditures, control costs and expenses; our ability to enter into a PIPE or other equity transaction on satisfactory terms; that our waterjets are experiencing growing acceptance in the
marketplace for their flexibility and superior machine performance; that future consumables sales should be positively impacted by the increased number of operating systems and by sales of the Companys proprietary productivity enhancing kits,
as well as the enhanced flexibility of parts purchased via the Internet at Flowparts.com; relations with and performance of suppliers; our ability to successfully develop and sell products in the competitive markets that we serve; access to capital;
maintaining satisfactory relationships with our lending partners; political and trade relations; the overall level of consumer spending on capital equipment; global economic conditions and additional threatened terrorist attacks and responses
thereto, including war; the belief that Omaxs claims are without merit and out intent to contest Omaxs allegations. Additional information on these and other factors that could affect our financial results is set forth below and in our
Form 10-K/A for the year ended April 30, 2004. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or developments, except as required by federal securities laws.



All references to fiscal years are references to our fiscal year end of April 30.



Changes in Financial Condition

We generated $6.7 million of cash from operating activities during the six months ended October 31, 2004 compared to $12.9 million of cash generated for the six months
ended October 31, 2003. The prior years operating cash flow included $9.4 million of inventory reductions and $7.4 million of increases in customer advances. These advances provide the funding for the manufacturing of our systems. The related
customer advances increase during the six months ended October 31, 2004 was $2.9 million while inventories increased $1.2 million.



Net receivables are comprised of trade accounts and unbilled revenues. At October 31, 2004, the net receivables balance decreased $287,000 or 1% from April 30, 2004. The
decrease in net receivables stemmed from the reduction in unbilled revenues from $22.0 million at April 30, 2004 to $17.8 million at October 31, 2004, a



- 18 -

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

OPERATIONS



$4.2 million or 19% decrease. A significant portion of unbilled receivables relates to equipment and systems accounted for on a percentage of completion
basis. Unbilled revenues fluctuate due to the scheduling of production and achievement of certain billing milestones. The decrease in unbilled revenues was offset by a $4.1 million or 15% increase in trade receivables from $27.6 million at
April 30, 2004 to $31.7 million at October 31, 2004 on strong standard shapecutting system sales during the period ended October 31, 2004. Receivables days sales outstanding (including unbilled revenues) decreased to 72 days at October 31, 2004 from
75 as of April 30, 2004. Receivables can be negatively affected by the traditionally longer payment cycle outside the United States and the timing of billings and payments on large special system orders. We do not believe these timing issues will
present a material adverse impact on our short-term liquidity requirements. Because of the lead-time to build and deliver such equipment, ultimate collection of such accounts can be subject to changing customer business and economic conditions.



Inventories, net at October 31, 2004 increased $1.8 million or 7% from April
30, 2004 driven by production to support increased sales activity in our standard shapecutting business. Gross inventories increased $1.8 million or 6% while the obsolescence reserve remained flat at $2.5 million. Even though inventory increased at
October 31, 2004, inventory turns remained consistent with the April 30, 2004 turns of 5.4 times.



Customer advances have increased $3.2 million or 31% at October 31, 2004, amounting to $13.4 million, versus the $10.2 million balance at April 30, 2004. The increase stems from two customer deposits on large domestic
general press orders. We also continue working with our customers on our terms of sale which require a substantial portion of any system to be paid prior to its shipment and have seen continued acceptance from our customers.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

Approximately $14.0 million of our cash and restricted cash is held by divisions outside the United States. The repatriation of offshore cash balances from certain
divisions will trigger tax liabilities. In fiscal 2004, we recorded a $1.9 million liability for withholding taxes on future repatriation of historical foreign earnings. In June 2004, we repatriated $3.5 million from certain foreign subsidiaries and
we plan to continue repatriating additional funds in the future.



We have
substantially completed the execution of our restructuring plan, which was expected to cover the period from May 2003 to February 2005, and which will result in total expected cash outlays of $9 million (including amounts accrued as restructuring
changes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles). We have funded the restructuring plan from our cash from operations and foreign debt. As of October 31, 2004, we have spent $8.6 million which includes completing the construction
of our new $5.2 million Taiwanese facility, to which we had committed in July 2000. The facility construction was financed via three unsecured lines of credit with Taiwanese banks. We also obtained a collateralized long-term credit facility and
borrowed $4.1 million on this facility in June 2004. We have used the proceeds to repay and reduce the senior credit facility by $3.5 million. We anticipate remaining restructuring expenses to be between $300,000 and $500,000 and all
restructuring obligations will be funded with our existing credit facilities and cash from operations. The benefits from our restructuring activities are beginning to be reflected in our operating results for the three and six months ended October
31, 2004 and, we believe, should continue for the remainder of fiscal 2005.



Our senior credit agreement (Credit Agreement) is our primary source of external funding. At October 31, 2004, the balance outstanding on the Credit Agreement is $34.2 million against a maximum borrowing of
$42.7 million. Our available credit at October 31, 2004, net of $3.0 million in outstanding letters of credit, is $5.5 million.

FLOW INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS



On July 28, 2004, we signed an amendment to the current credit agreement (the Amendment). The Amendment
provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $42.7 million and an extension of the credit agreement through August 1, 2005. The commitment reduces to $41.0 million at April 30, 2005. Interest rates under the Senior Credit Agreement are at Bank
of Americas prime rate in effect from time to time plus 4% and increase by one percentage point each quarter beginning November 1, 2004. We are recording interest expense at the estimated effective rate over the term of the borrowing in
accordance with EITF 86-15, Increasing Rate Debt. The prime rate at October 31, 2004 was 4.75%. The Amendment also required the issuance of 150,000 detachable $.01 warrants to the senior lender as a fee and a quarterly commitment
fee of 1/2of 1% (50 basis points) of the total commitment. In addition, the Amendment specifies compliance with
minimum EBITDA and collateral levels and provides limits for spending on research and engineering as well as capital expenditures. The Amendment also has provisions for mandatory commitment reductions in the event of a sale of assets outside the
ordinary course of business or in the event of an equity event. Commitment level reductions are based on a percentage of the cash generated by these activities net of applicable fees.



We also amended our Subordinated Debt Agreement effective July 28, 2004. The subordinated
lenders agreed to defer the semi-annual interest remittances due on October 31, 2004 and April 30, 2005, which total $5.3 million. This deferred interest balance accrues additional interest at the rate of 15% per annum. The subordinated lenders also
received 150,000 detachable $.01 warrants to purchase common stock as an amendment fee.



On December 6, 2004, we signed an additional amendment to our current credit agreement (Additional Amendment). The Additional Amendment increases the sub-facility for letters of credit from $5 million to $13 million.



Both the Senior Credit and Subordinated Debt Agreements require payment of
significant additional fees if certain reductions in outstanding debt levels do not occur. The amended Senior Credit Agreement requires us to pay a $1.0 million fee if the total commitment at April 30, 2005 is greater than $38.0 million. The amended
subordinated debt agreement assesses a $3.0 million deferred restructuring fee should we be unable to make the April 30, 2005 interest payment in cash by June 15, 2005.



The Senior Credit Agreement and Subordinated Debt Agreement are collateralized by general liens on all of our assets. We are required to
comply with certain covenants in the credit agreement, and subordinated debt agreement, including restrictions on dividends and transactions with affiliates, limitations on additional indebtedness, capital expenditures, research and engineering
expenses, and maintenance of EBITDA ratios and collateral values. We were in compliance with all covenants in our amended credit facilities as of October 31, 2004.



We have incurred losses during fiscal 2002, 2003 and 2004. In May 2003, we began execution of a comprehensive two-year restructuring plan
intended to return the Company to profitability through reductions in headcount, consolidation of facilities and operations, and closure or divestiture of selected operations. We have been able to satisfy our needs for working capital and capital
expenditures, due in part to our ability to access adequate financing arrangements. We expect that operations will continue, with the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Compliance with future debt
covenants requires us to meet our operating projections, which include achieving certain revenues, costs, consistent operating margins, and working capital targets.



We believe that our existing cash and credit facilities at October 31, 2004 are adequate to fund our operations through August 1, 2005, the
expiration date of our Senior Credit Agreement. If we fail to achieve our planned revenues, costs and working capital objectives, management believes it has the ability to curtail capital expenditures and reduce costs to levels that will be
sufficient to enable us to meet our cash requirements and debt covenants through July 31, 2005.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

However, demand for our products and timing of cost reductions are difficult to project. Our restructuring
initiatives may have unanticipated effects on our business. If we are unable to comply with the amended debt covenants or a material adverse change occurs, and our lenders are unwilling to waive or amend the debt covenants, certain components of our
long-term obligations and notes payable would become callable, and we would be required to seek alternative financing. We are continuing to evaluate our current capital structure and may investigate alternative sources of financing. Alternative
sources of financing may not be available if required or, if available, may not be on satisfactory terms. If we are unable to obtain alternative financing on satisfactory terms, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, and we would
be required to curtail capital spending, further reduce expenses, and otherwise modify our planned operations including potentially discontinuing operations.



On October 8, 2004, with authorization from the Board of Directors, we engaged investment bankers on a best efforts basis to act as placement agents in a PIPE
transaction. The term PIPE is an acronym for Private Investment in Public Equity. The purpose of the PIPE would be to raise funds to reduce the amount of funds owed to our lenders. The investment bankers participation as placement
agent is subject to the negotiation of terms we find satisfactory. To date, no effort has been made to attract investors, no terms of a PIPE transaction have been negotiated and thus there is no assurance that we will be able to execute a PIPE
transaction. It is currently assumed that that any PIPE transaction approved by the Board of Directors would not be subject to shareholder approval under the Qualitative Listing requirements of NASDAQ. We may also consider alternatives to a PIPE
transaction in order to reduce outstanding debt.



As part of our anticipated
PIPE or other equity offering and the associated presentations, we are providing the following selected financial guidance for the remainder of fiscal 2005. We expect revenues for the full fiscal 2005 to be between $201 million and $212 million. We
do not have a duty to and will not update this guidance based on subsequent events.



With authorization from the Board of Directors, we engaged the services of Danske Markets, Inc., which is working in Europe in cooperation with CloseAssociates, in September 2004 to assist us in the sale of our General Press operations.
These businesses are comprised of the North America Press and International Press segments. As these segments are not considered core to our business, it is our intent to divest ourselves of these operations and use the proceeds to pay down debt. It
is currently anticipated that any proceeds will be used to pay down a combination of both senior and subordinated debt. The split between senior and subordinated debt has not been finalized by the lenders and management. While we have not yet begun
to market these segments, we anticipate the process to begin prior to January 31, 2005. We do not know when or whether we will receive an acceptable offer. If we do divest these businesses, it is anticipated that we will enter into a manufacturing
agreement with the purchaser to continue to provide some of the non high pressure pump components used in the Fresher Under Pressure business, such as the pressure vessel as we intend to retain the Fresher Under Pressure business which is considered
part of the core UHP pump business. These segments do not meet the accounting criteria to be considered discontinued operations and accordingly the results of operations are shown as continuing operations and the related assets have not been
reported as held for sale.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any special purpose entities or off-balance sheet financing arrangements.



Contractual Obligations

During
the quarter ended October 31, 2004, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in our contractual obligations and minimum commercial commitments as reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended April 30,
2004.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS



Critical Accounting Policies and Judgments and New Accounting Pronouncements

There are no material changes in our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended April 30, 2004. New accounting
pronouncements are disclosed in Note 15 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.



Risks and Uncertainties

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that are forward-looking.
These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially because of risks and uncertainties such as those listed below and elsewhere in this report, which,
among others, should be considered in evaluating our financial outlook.



Additional Capital.    Our credit facilities may not provide us with sufficient capital to pursue all the business opportunities that may be available to us. In addition, the amended credit agreement
expires on August 1, 2005 and we will need to seek either replacement debt, equity financing or a combination of both. There is no assurance that such financing will be available, or if it is available, that it will be on acceptable terms or that it
will be sufficient in amount. Both senior and subordinated credit facilities require payment of significant additional fees if certain reductions in outstanding debt levels do not occur.



Negotiation of Financing with Favorable Terms.    We are continuing to evaluate our current capital
structure and are investigating alternative sources of financing. Alternative sources of financing may not be available if required or, if available, may not be on satisfactory terms. If we are unable to obtain alternative financing on satisfactory
terms, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, and we would be required to curtail capital spending, further reduce expenses, and otherwise modify our planned operations including potentially discontinuing operations.



Impact of Financial Condition on Business.    Our overall
financial position has impacted our terms of sale with customers. Where our standard terms of sale require deposits upon contract execution and significant payment prior to shipment, some customers who order systems with long-lead times have been
reluctant to remit the necessary funds or have required that we provide security in the form of standby letters of credit. We currently cannot provide standby letters of credit with maturities extending beyond the August 1, 2005 maturity of our
senior credit facility and we are also limited by our senior credit facility to $13 million of total outstanding standby letters of credit. As a result, we may have to continue to accept less than favorable terms on customer orders.



History of Losses and Potential for Future Losses.    Our
restated net losses for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2003 and 2004 were $70.0 million and $11.5 million, respectively. As described in this section and the notes to the financial statements, in May 2003, we began an 18-month plan to
significantly restructure our operations. We believe these restructuring and related cost-cutting initiatives will reduce overall spending. If our restructuring efforts fail to adequately reduce costs, or if our sales are less than we project, we
will continue to incur losses in future periods. Economic weakness in our served markets may adversely affect our ability to meet our sales projections.



Compliance with Current Financing Arrangements.    We are operating under an amended Senior Credit Agreement with our senior lenders and
an amended note agreement with our subordinated lender. The agreement with our senior lenders expires August 1, 2005 and sets forth specific financial covenants to be attained on a quarterly basis. Our subordinated lender has amended the
subordinated note agreement. The revised covenants are similar to the covenants in the amended senior credit facility. In addition, our agreements with our senior and subordinated lenders include subjective acceleration clauses which permit the
lenders to demand payment on the

determination of a material adverse change in the business. In the event of default, the senior and subordinated lenders (together, the Lenders)
may limit our access to borrow funds as needed. Our ability to continue operating is dependent on the Lenders willingness to grant access to funds. If we are unable to obtain the necessary funds, our ability to continue operations would be
seriously impaired unless we are able to obtain alternative financing from another source. In the event of a default, obtaining alternative financing is unlikely, especially in the short term, given our current financial position. We may be unable
to achieve our projected operating results and maintain compliance with the loan covenants which would trigger an event of default with our Lenders. In an event of default, the Lenders would be in the position to exercise default remedies which
include applying a default interest rate and acceleration of payment schedules for our outstanding debt. If the debt were called in such a manner, it is unlikely we would be able to pay off our Lenders and we would be subject to the authority of our
Lenders as provided in the credit agreement and also in the amended subordinated note agreement. Our Lenders may pursue any number of plans to reduce the outstanding debt, including, in certain circumstances, a liquidation of some or all of our
assets.



Satisfaction of Subordinated
Debt.    The $35 million initial principal amount of notes issued under the Subordinated Debt Agreement mature in two installments of $17.5 million each on April 30, 2007 and 2008. Our subordinated lender has agreed to
defer and capitalize the semi-annual interest remittances due from April 30, 2003 through April 30, 2005, which total $13.2 million, less the $1.0 million paydown that we made concurrent with the signing of the amendment to the Note Agreement in
July 2003, as a component of the principal balance outstanding. This deferred and capitalized interest will be due in two equal installments on April 30, 2007 and 2008. This unpaid interest accrues interest at the rate of 15% per year. In order to
satisfy these obligations and to obtain favorable senior financing, we may be required to enter into transactions which could be dilutive to current shareholders such as converting the subordinated debt into equity or selling additional equity. It
is likely that we will not generate sufficient cash from operations to pay installments due on either April 30, 2007 or 2008. Any agreement that we reach with the subordinated lender could have a material impact on the Company, including dilution to
existing shareholders.



Intellectual Property
Rights.    We defend our intellectual property rights because unauthorized copying and sale of our proprietary equipment and consumables represents a loss of revenue to us. From time to time we also receive notices
from others claiming we infringe their intellectual property rights. The number of these claims may grow in the future, and responding to these claims may require us to stop selling or to redesign affected products, or to pay damages. On November
18, 2004, Omax Corporation (Omax) filed suit against the Company alleging that the Companys products infringe on Omaxs patents. The suit also seeks to have a specific patent held by the Company declared invalid. We filed our
response on December 8, 2004. In our answer, we assert that we do not infringe Omaxs patents, that Omaxs patents are invalid and unenforceable and we seek damages from Omax for violation of antitrust laws. We also deny Omaxs
assertion that our patent is invalid, unenforceable and not infringed. Although the suit seeks damages of over $100 million, the Company believes Omaxs claims are without merit and intends not only to contest Omaxs allegations of
infringement but also to vigorously pursue its claims with regard to its own patent.



Receipt of Material Weakness Letter.    In connection with the restatement of fiscal 2002, 2003 and 2004, we received a material weakness letter from our independent registered public accounting firm. We
assigned the highest priority to the correction of these deficiencies and have taken and will continue to take actions to fully correct them. While we have dedicated significant resources to assessing the underlying issues giving rise to the
restatement and to ensuring that proper steps have been and are being taken to improve our control environment, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the control
systems objectives will be met. There is no assurance that other control weaknesses will not be detected in the future.

Three and Six Months Ended October
31, 2004 Compared to Three and Six Months Ended October 31, 2003



Sales

Waterjet.    The Waterjet operation includes cutting and cleaning operations, which are focused on
providing total solutions for the aerospace, automotive, job shop, surface preparation (cleaning) and paper industries. For the three months ended October 31, 2004, Waterjet sales of $44.1 million increased $11.0 million or 33% as compared to the
prior year same period, fueled by market demand for our dynamic waterjet and improved global market conditions in the primary industries we serve. For the six months ended October 31, 2004, we reported a $15.9 million, or 24%, increase to $82.4
million versus the prior year comparative period. Domestically, we recorded a $9.1 million, or 35%, revenue increase for the six months ended October 31, 2004 compared to the like period in the prior year for sales of our standard waterjet cutting
systems and spares, as compared to the domestic machine cutting tool market, which recorded a quarter over prior year same quarter improvement of 52%, according to the Association for Manufacturing Technology (AMT). We do not believe
that our shapecutting equipment business is as subject to cyclical fluctuations as the traditional methods tracked by the AMT. The broader machine tool market is recovering from historical lows. Our waterjets are experiencing growing acceptance in
the marketplace for their flexibility and superior machine performance. This recent increase in domestic revenues was further enhanced by improved demand in the domestic automotive and aerospace sectors which included an expansion of our cutting
cell applications to non-automotive customers. For the three months ended October 31, 2004 total domestic Waterjet revenues were $25.3 million, up $9.2 million or 57%, from $16.1 million in the prior year quarterly period, due primarily to
increased sales of our standard waterjet cutting systems and spares. For the six months ended October 31, 2004, domestic Waterjet revenues were $45.8 million, up $12.2 million or 36% from $33.6 million for the prior year same quarter. Standard
waterjet cutting systems and spares accounted for $9.1 million of this growth.

Outside the U.S., Waterjet revenue growth was positively influenced by growth in Asian sales which were $6.5 million
and $12.8 million, up $1 million or 19% and $2.6 million or 25% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively. These increases were driven largely by sales in China where we experienced strong demand for shapecutting and cutting
cell systems from a strengthening automotive industry. Within our Other International Waterjet segment, revenues from our European operations have increased $1.0 million for both the three and six months ended October 31, 2004 to $7.6 million and
$14.2 million, respectively. Market specific pricing, standardization of system offerings, and a recovering European marketplace have helped stabilize our European sales.



We also analyze our Waterjet revenues by looking at system sales and consumable sales. Systems sales were $31.3 million, up $10.4 million or
50%, for the three months ended October 31, 2004. Of this total increase, $8.9 million came from domestic sales. Systems revenues for the six months ended October 31, 2004 were $57.2 million, an increase of $15.3 million or 37%,
compared to the prior year same period due to both strong domestic and global sales from recovering economic conditions. Consistent with the quarter, the majority, $11.8 million, of the increase was generated domestically. Consumables revenues
recorded a slight increase of $676,000 or 6% and $529,000 or 2% to $12.8 million and $25.2 million for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively. This compares to $12.1 million and $24.7 million for the three and six months ended
October 31, 2003. Spares sales for the six months ended October 31, 2004 in Japan are down $434,000 or 18% as compared to the prior year due to the reduction in refurbishment work on U.S. naval fleet ships versus the prior year. We believe that
consumables revenue will be positively impacted by the increased number of operating systems and by our proprietary productivity enhancing kits and improved parts availability as well as the use of Flowparts.com, our easy-to-use internet order entry
system.



Avure.The Avure operation includes the
Fresher Under Pressure technology as well as
General Press operations. Fresher Under Pressure meets the increasing demand in the U.S. for a post packaging, terminal pasteurization-like step (e.g. packaged ready-to-eat meats); the demand for high quality, minimally processed foods (e.g. fresh
guacamole and salsas); and the demand to utilize the productivity enhancing capabilities of UHP in food processing (e.g. shellfish), while the General Press business manufactures systems which produce and strengthen advanced materials for the
aerospace, automotive and medical industries. For the three months ended October 31, 2004, Fresher Under Pressure sales decreased $1.1 million or 30% to $2.6 million. For the six months ended October 31, 2004, sales of Fresher Under Pressure
technology were $6.5 million, representing a $2.0 million increase, compared to the prior year same periods revenue of $4.4 million. While the current fiscal year utilized percentage of completion for revenue recognition, fiscal 2004 included
revenue recognition under both percentage of completion and on as as-delivered basis. Revenues from several completed systems were recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 upon customer acceptance. Had these fiscal 2004 sales been recognized
on percentage of completion, a portion of the second quarter fiscal 2004 revenue would have been recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. The six month increase can be attributed to receipt of orders during prior periods where we are building
the systems to customers orders and therefore are recording percentage of completion revenue.



For the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, General Press revenues were $8.8 million and $15.6 million, up from $6.9 million and $9.9 million in the prior year same periods, respectively, on stronger
order volume and production. This revenue increase was experienced domestically. General Press revenues will vary from quarter to quarter and from year to year due to the nature of its sales and production cycle. The sales and production cycle on a
General Press can range from one to four years.



Cost of Sales and Gross
Margins.    Gross margin for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004 amounted to $18.3 million or 33% of sales and $36.2 million or 35% of sales, respectively, as compared to gross margin of

OPERATIONS



$15.7 million or 36% of sales and $29.0 million or 36% of sales in the prior year same periods. Generally, comparison of gross margin rates will vary period
over period depending on the mix of sales, which includes special system, standard system and consumables sales. Gross margin rates on our systems sales are typically less than 45% as opposed to consumables sales which are in excess of 50%. On
average, standard systems carry higher margins than the custom engineered systems, which include General Presses. Waterjet margins were 34% and 35% of waterjet sales for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively, down from 36%
and 37% in prior year same periods, respectively. The decrease in margin percentage was associated with weakness in margins in the automotive business. Avure margins for the second quarter were 27% of sales, down from 35% of sales in the prior year
second quarter. This decrease is attributable to lower throughput in the current year quarter. For the six months ended October 31, 2004, Avure margins were 32% of sales, similar to the prior year.



Marketing Expenses.Marketing expenses increased $2.0 million
and or 33% and $1.9 million or 14% to $8.1 million and $15.4 million for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively, as compared to the prior year same periods. This increase included the expenses of the bi-annual International
Manufacturing Technology Show held during the quarter ended October 31, 2004, as well as higher costs associated with increased sales. Expressed as a percentage of revenue, marketing expenses were 15% for both the three and the six months ended
October 31, 2004. This compares to 14% and 17% of sales for the prior year respective same periods.



Research and Engineering Expenses.    Research and engineering expenses decreased $979,000 or 34% and $1.1 million or 20% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, as compared to
the prior year same period. This decrease is related to the timing of research and development work and the increased use of engineers on revenue generating projects. Expressed as a percentage of revenue, research and engineering expenses were 3%
and 4% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively, as compared to 7% for both the three and six months ended October 31, 2003.



General and Administrative Expenses.    General and administrative expenses increased $248,000 or 5% and $479,000 or 4% for the three and six
months ended October 31, 2004, as compared to the prior year same period. The increase is the result of the adoption of a management incentive plan at the beginning of the first fiscal 2005 quarter. Expressed as a percentage of revenue, general and
administrative expenses were 10% and 11% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively, as compared to 12% and 14% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003, respectively.



Restructuring Expenses.During the three and six months ended
October 31, 2003, we incurred $857,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, of restructuring-related costs, primarily related to severance benefits and facility exit costs. No such costs were incurred during the six months ended October 31, 2004.



Financial Consulting Expenses.    During the six
months ended October 31, 2004 and 2003, we incurred $623,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, of financial consulting costs associated with our efforts to refinance our subordinated debt. No such costs were incurred during the three months ended
October 31, 2004, and $97,000 were incurred during the three months ended October 31, 2003.



Operating Income (Loss).    Our operating income for the three months ended October 31, 2004 was $2.6 million versus $282,000 in the prior year period. For the six months ended October 31,
2004, we recorded operating income of $4.2 million as compared to an operating loss of $3.3 million for the six months ended October 31, 2003. The improvement from operating loss to operating income is primarily the result of increased sales levels
which have resulted in higher gross margin dollars across both operations.

OPERATIONS



Interest and Other Income, net.Current interest expense, net increased to $3.8 million
and $6.9 million for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively. This increase of $418,000 or 12% and $214,000 or 3% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2004, respectively, versus the prior year same periods
results from higher interest rates and increased fee amortization from the recent amendments to both the senior and subordinated credit agreements, offset in part by a lower average debt balance outstanding. During the three and six months ended
October 31, 2004, we recorded Other Income, net of $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively. This compares to $1.2 million and $2.6 million in the prior year three and six month periods, respectively. For both the three and six months ended
October 31, 2004, we recorded net unrealized gains of $594,000 and losses of $166,000, respectively and have realized net respective gains of $929,000 and $1.6 million on settlement of foreign currency transactions based on the weaker dollar.
This compares to net unrealized gains of $1.3 million and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003, respectively and net respective realized gains of $419,000 and $395,000.



Income Taxes.For the three and six months ended October 31,
2004 and 2003, the tax provision consists of current expense related to foreign jurisdictions which are profitable. In addition, certain jurisdictions (principally Germany and the United States) reported net operating losses for which no tax benefit
was recognized as it is more likely than not that such benefit will not be realized. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, as a result of foreign asset collateral requirements and our amended credit agreements, we were no longer able to
permanently defer foreign earnings and recorded a $1.9 million liability for withholding taxes payable on future repatriation of foreign earnings. We also recorded a U.S. tax liability of $6.7 million on foreign earnings which we have decided to no
longer permanently defer. The total $6.7 million tax liability was offset by a reduction of the valuation allowance. In addition, we continue to assess our ability to realize our net deferred tax assets. Recognizing the continued losses generated
during the quarter and in prior periods, we have determined it appropriate to continue to maintain a valuation allowance on our domestic net operating losses, certain foreign net operating losses and certain other deferred tax assets based on the
expected reversal of both deferred tax assets and liabilities. The domestic net operating losses can be carried forward 20 years to offset domestic profits in future periods and expire in fiscal 2023 if not used. Our foreign net operating losses
currently do not have an expiration date. We provided a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets associated with the losses recorded during the quarter ended October 31, 2004.



Net Loss.    Our consolidated net loss in the three months ended
October 31, 2004 amounted to $275,000, or $.02 per basic and diluted loss per share as compared to a net loss of $1.9 million, or $.13 basic and diluted loss per share in the prior year same period. For the year-to-date period, our consolidated
net loss was $2.6 million or $.17 per basic and diluted loss per share as compared to a net loss of $7.6 million, or $.50 basic and diluted loss per share in the prior year same period.



Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk



There have been no material changes in our market risk during the six months ended October 31, 2004. For additional information, refer to Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations as presented in the Form 10-K/A for the year ended April 30, 2004, as filed with the SEC.



Item 4. Controls and Procedures



In December
2004, in connection with the restatement of our fiscal 2002, 2003 and 2004 financial statements, our independent registered public accounting firm reported to our Audit Committee two matters involving internal controls which our independent
registered public accounting firm considered to be material weaknesses in our financial reporting process, as defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) in



- 28 -

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS



Auditing Standard No. 2. As defined by the PCAOB, a material weakness is a significant deficiency, or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results
in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Our management and Audit Committee agree and we responded to our independent registered public accounting
firm on each matter raised in their report and agreed to address each of the deficiencies.



The material weaknesses identified by our independent registered public accounting firm were as follows:



| |  | Insufficient analysis, documentation and review of the consolidation of the financial statements of subsidiaries. Inadequate processes to ensure the reconciliation of inter-company
accounts are performed appropriately. Also, we must improve the consolidation process and controls surrounding adequate monitoring and oversight of the work performed by accounting and financial reporting personnel in connection with the
consolidation process.
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Insufficient staffing of the accounting and financial reporting function. The finance and accounting function requires additional personnel with appropriate skills and training to
identify and address the application of technical accounting literature to our transactions and activities.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



These deficiencies in both design and operational effectiveness contributed to the restatement of fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002 and delays in the completion and filing
of our July 31, 2004 and October 31, 2004 Form 10-Qs, as described in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as in our Form 10-K/A.



In light of the material weaknesses described above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe that our disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective as of October 31, 2004, the end of the quarter covered by this report. These material weakness findings have resulted in the need to restate our financial statements for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003 and in a delay in
completion and filing of the 10-Q for the second quarter ended October 31, 2004.



Our management and Audit Committee have dedicated significant resources to assessing the underlying issues giving rise to the restatements and to ensure that proper steps have been and are being taken to improve our control environment. We
have assigned the highest priority to the correction of these deficiencies and have taken and will continue to take action to fully correct them. Management is committed to instilling strong control policies and procedures and will ensure that the
tone at the top is committed to accuracy and completeness in all financial reporting. In addition to internal resources, the Audit Committee authorized the engagement of a third party financial consulting firm to assist in both the
detail reconciliation work, as well as reviewing current processes and controls and assistance in the development of prospective processes and controls over the inter-company reconciliation process. Our Audit Committee, concluded that our
accounting, financial reporting and internal control functions needed improvement, as the inter-company account reconciliations, the consolidation and oversight procedures related to the balancing of inter-company accounts and the documentation and
monitoring of compliance with the requirements of technical accounting pronouncements, were not sufficient. Accordingly, management has presented to the Audit Committee a plan to remedy the issues raised by our independent registered public
accounting firm. We believe that the appropriate corrective action is to hire additional accounting staff with appropriate skill levels in order to improve the reconciliation process and increase the oversight ability thereof. Additionally, we will
improve the documentation surrounding the implementation of accounting rules, as well as perform periodic reviews of the appropriateness of accounting policies and related documentation. This plan is designed to ensure that the reconciliation and
elimination of inter-company balances as part of the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, is in accordance with US GAAP, as well as ensure the proper application of technical accounting literature in the preparation of our financial
statements.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS



Specific initiatives with respect to our disclosure controls and procedures and actions needed to further address the
material weaknesses described above include the following:



| |  | Employ additional accounting staff
| | - | ----------------------------------



| |  | Train staff on the application of technical accounting pronouncements, such as FAS 52, pronouncements applicable to financing transactions, and inter-company reconciliations
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Create standardized reconciliation templates to assist in the reconciliation process
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Prepare sufficient documentation to support our application of complex accounting standards
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Adopt a policy of periodic review of existing accounting policies to ensure continued compliance
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Increase review of adherence to corporate polices and procedures
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------



We have already hired one additional corporate finance staff and intend to hire at least one to two more people for the corporate finance department. In addition, we will
determine if certain subsidiaries, as well as the corporate accounting department, need any additional staff beyond the current positions being recruited. We anticipate we will have hired at least one additional staff by the end of the fiscal third
quarter. Additionally, a new reconciliation template has been developed and tested and was used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements beginning with the second quarter ended October 31, 2004. Also, beginning with the second
quarter ended October 31, 2004, we took the time needed to ensure our documentation of our accounting positions was complete. We have modified our divisional monthly close checklist effective October 31, 2004 to help ensure the inter-company
reconciliations are complete and agreed to by all divisions. Also effective with the October 31, 2004 close, our Chief Financial Officer reviewed the inter-company reconciliations to ensure accuracy and completeness.



Beginning with the second quarter ended October 31, 2004, we have trained accounting
department personnel in the proper application and documentation of FAS 52 to ensure proper accounting and reporting on a prospective basis. The Company has also developed a new template that will be used in the preparation of the Consolidated
Statement of Cash Flows. This template is being reviewed quarterly by the Chief Financial Officer beginning with the second quarter ended October 31, 2004.



The continued implementation of the initiatives described above is among our highest priorities. Our Audit Committee will continually assess the progress and sufficiency
of these initiatives and make adjustments as and when necessary. As of the date of this report, management believes that the plan outlined above, when completed, will eliminate the material weaknesses in internal accounting control as described
above. However, management and the Audit Committee do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors or all instances of fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls
must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control gaps and instances of fraud have been detected. These inherent
limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or
more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and any design may not succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions.
