UPP and Land Holdings), plastics and coatings (NCT, TPI, TCI and Vassar) and
distribution (Monroe). The metal processing group provides a variety of laser
welding, metal blanking, forming, slitting, cutting and die construction
products and services utilizing proprietary laser weld and light die technology.

distribution segments are not significant and have been eliminated. Interest
expense is allocated to each segment based on the segments actual borrowings
from the corporate headquarters, together with a partial allocation of corporate
general and administrative expenses. Revenues from external customers are
identified geographically based on the customer's shipping destination.

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

Results of Operations

         Net Sales. Net sales for the three months September 30, 1999 increased
66.9% to $37.898 million from $22.711 million for the comparable quarter of
1998. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased 106.6% to
$116.660 million from $56.455 million for the comparable nine months of 1998.
The increase in sales is substantially due to the acquisitions of TPI in July
1998, the acquisitions of TCI and NMPW in October 1998, higher laser welded
blank sales at NMP and the negative impact of the General Motors strike on the
six months ended September 30, 1998. TPI and TCI sales combined represented
43.3% and 60.1% of the increased sales, respectively, for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 1999. NMPW sales represented 24.8% and 18.7%
of the increased sales, respectively, for the three and nine month period ended
September 30, 1999.

         Cost of Goods Sold. As a percent of net sales, cost of goods sold for
the three month period ended September 30, 1999 remained flat at 76.1% as
compared with 76.0% for the prior year period and for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1999, decreased to 72.7% from 74.1% compared to the prior
year period. The increase in cost of goods sold as a percent of net sales for
the three months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with the percent of net
sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, is primarily due to the
inclusion of TPI, which had significantly higher cost of goods sold as a percent
of net sales than the Company's other operations, and the reduced volume of
sales due to the General Motors' strike. Cost of goods sold as a percent of
sales for the three months ended September 30, 1999 were affected by costs and
inefficiencies associated with initiating production at a new coatings facility,
launching new automotive programs in the Plastics & Coatings segment, steel
supplier shortages, disruption to DiamlerChrysler production schedules from the
hurricane in North Carolina which in turn affected the Metal Processing segment,
and other cyclical factors associated with automotive OEM model year changeovers
and production schedules. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of
net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the prior
period is primarily due to higher sales volumes and increased operating
efficiencies.

         Gross Profit. The Company's gross profit increased by 66.0% to $9.044
million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $5.448 million for
the comparable quarter of 1998. Gross profit for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 increased by 117.5% to $31.857 million from $14.650 million for the
comparable period of 1998.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $1.906 million, or 55.2% for the three
month period ended September 30, 1999 and for the nine month period increased by
$7.706 million, or 80.5% as compared to the comparable periods of 1998. The
increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was due primarily to
the acquisitions of TCI and NMPW for the three month period ended September 30,
1999 and the acquisitions of TPI, TCI and NMPW for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. Notwithstanding the increased level of expenses, selling,
general and administrative expenses actually decreased as a percentage of net
sales from 15.2% for the third quarter of 1998 to 14.1% for the third quarter of
1999. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales
decreased from 17.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to 14.8% for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The decreases in percentage of sales
are substantially the result of spreading corporate overhead costs over a larger
sales base.

         Operating Profit. As a result of the foregoing factors, operating
profit increased to $3.684 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999
compared with $1.994 million in the prior period, an increase of 84.8%. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, operating profit increased to $14.579
million, an increase of 187.1%.

         Interest Expense. Interest expense increased 91.4% to $1.734 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $.906 million for the
comparable quarter of the prior year. Interest expense for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 increased 195.9% to $4.717 million from $1.594 million for
the comparable nine months of the prior year. The increase is primarily due to
higher levels of long term debt incurred to finance the acquisitions of TPI, TCI
and NMPW, as well as additions of property, plant and equipment and working
capital to support increased sales.

         Net Earnings. As a result of the foregoing factors, net earnings on
common shares increased by $.647 million to $1.263 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 from earnings of $.616 million for the prior period.
Net earnings on common shares for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
increased by $4.249 million to $6.364 million from earnings of $2.115 million
for the prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company's cash requirements have historically been satisfied
through a combination of cash flow from operations, equipment financing, bank
financing and loans from shareholders. The Company's working capital needs and
capital equipment requirements have increased as a result of the growth of the
Company and are expected to continue to increase as a result of anticipated
growth. The anticipated increase in required working capital and capital
equipment requirements are expected to be met from the cash flow from
operations, equipment financing and revolving credit borrowings. As of September
30, 1999, the Company had working capital of approximately $25.178 million.

         The Company generated cash flow from earnings, depreciation,
amortization and deferred income taxes of $14.886 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999, which was offset by increases in expenditures for
working capital and operating assets. The Company used cash in investing
activities of $27.934 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Cash
used in investing activities included $23.766 million for the purchase of
property, plant and equipment, $3.885 million for the acquisition of certain
assets of Jebco Manufacturing, Inc. in August 1999 and $.283 million for the
acquisition of certain assets of BEL-Tronics CSD in February 1999. Expenditures
for property, plant and equipment were primarily to fund equipment purchases for
TCI's new coating facility which was completed in September 1999, equipment
purchases by NMP and TPI and expansion of NMPW facilities. The Company generated
$27.606 million in cash flow from financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. The financing activities in the period were primarily
borrowings on the Company's revolving credit facility offset by repayment of
other financing obligations.

         The Company maintains a $105 million secured revolving credit facility
(the "Credit Facility") with a syndicate of banks. The Credit Facility expires
in December 2002, is secured by the assets of Noble and its subsidiaries and
provides for the issuance of up to $5 million in standby or documentary letters
of credit. The Credit Facility replaced an existing $70 million facility in June
1999. The Credit Facility may be utilized for general corporate purposes,
including working capital and acquisition financing, and provides the Company
with borrowing options for multi-currency loans. Borrowing options include a
eurocurrency rate or a base rate. Advances under the Credit Facility during the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 bore interest at the rate of 7.6% per
annum. The Credit Facility is subject to customary financial and other covenants
including, but not limited to, limitations on payment of dividends, limitations
on consolidations, mergers, and sales of assets, and bank approval on
acquisitions over $25 million. The Company is in compliance with the terms of
the Credit Facility.

         The liquidity provided by the Company's credit facilities, combined
with cash flow from operations, is expected to be sufficient to meet the
Company's currently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure needs
for at least 12 months. There can be no assurance, however, that such funds will
not be expended prior thereto due to changes in economic conditions or other
unforeseen circumstances, requiring the Company to obtain additional financing
prior to the end of such 12 month period. In addition, the Company regularly
reviews, as part of its business strategy, future growth through opportunistic
acquisitions which may involve the expenditure of significant funds. Depending
upon the nature, size and timing of future acquisitions, if any, the Company may
be required to obtain additional debt or equity financing in connection with
such future acquisitions. There can be no assurance, however, that additional
financing will be available to the Company, when and if needed, on acceptable
terms or at all.

Year 2000 Compliance

         Many currently installed computer systems and software products are
coded to accept only two digit entries in the date code field. These date code
fields will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish 21st century dates
from 20th century dates. As a result, by the year 2000, computer systems and
software used by many companies will need to be upgraded to comply with such
"Year 2000" requirements. The Company has conducted an evaluation of the actions
necessary to ensure that its business critical computer systems will be able to
function without disruption with respect to the application of dating systems in
the year 2000. As a result of this evaluation, the Company has upgraded,
replaced and tested certain of its information and other computer systems so as
to be able to operate without disruption due to Year 2000 issues. The Company
has evaluated and will continue to evaluate the ability of its key suppliers to
operate without disruption due to Year 2000 issues. The Company's remedial
actions are substantially completed and based on information currently
available, the Company does not anticipate the costs of its remedial actions
will be material to the Company's results of operations and financial condition
and are being expensed as incurred.


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

         The Company is exposed to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
International revenues from the Company's foreign subsidiaries were
approximately 25% of the total revenues for the nine months ended September 30,
1999. The Company's primary foreign currency exposure is the Canadian Dollar.
The Company manages its exposures to foreign currency assets and earnings
primarily by funding certain foreign currency denominated assets with
liabilities in the same currency and, as such, certain exposures are naturally
offset.

         A portion of the Company's assets are based in its foreign operations
and are translated into U.S. Dollars at foreign currency exchange rates in
effect as of the end of each period, with the effect of such translation
reflected as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Accordingly, the
Company's consolidated shareholders' equity will fluctuate depending on the
weakening or strengthening of the U.S. Dollar against the respective foreign
currency.

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