|   |  | The principal operations of Argo-Tech Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary
of AT Holdings Corporation) and its subsidiaries include the design,
manufacture and distribution of aviation products, primarily aircraft fuel
pumps, throughout the world. In addition, Argo-Tech leases a portion of its
Cleveland, Ohio manufacturing facility to other parties. Argo-Techs fiscal
year ends on the last Saturday in October. Argo-Tech is obligated to fulfill
certain obligations of AT Holdings Corporation. As a result, those
obligations have been reflected in its financial statements. Certain
reclassifications have been made in the prior years financial statements to
conform to the current year presentation.  
|  
|   |  | Argo-Tech Corporation is a parent, holding company with four wholly-owned
operating subsidiaries that guarantee Argo-Techs senior subordinated notes.
Argo-Tech has no outside assets, liabilities or operations apart from its
wholly-owned subsidiaries. The senior subordinated notes are fully,
unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed by the guarantor
subsidiaries, and therefore, separate financial statements of the guarantor
subsidiaries will not be presented. Management has determined that the
information presented by such separate financial statements is not material
to investors.

|   |  | The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, the
information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of Argo-Techs financial position and results of operations and
cash flows for the interim periods presented. These financial statements and
notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related
notes included in Argo-Techs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
October 26, 2002. The results of operations for the 39 week and 13 week
periods ended July 26, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

Interpretation No. 45 (FIN 45), Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure
Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of
Others, effective as of its first quarter of fiscal 2003. FIN 45 requires
disclosures to be made by a guarantor about its obligations under certain
guarantees that it has issued.

|   |  | Argo-Tech accrues for warranty obligations for products sold based on
management estimates of the amount that may be required to settle such
potential obligations. These estimates are prepared with support from our
sales, engineering, quality and legal functions. This accrual, which is
reviewed in detail on a regular basis, is based on several factors: past
experience, current claims, production changes and various other
considerations. The following table presents a reconciliation of changes in
the product warranty liability for the 39 week period ended July 26, 2003 (in
thousands):

|  
|   |  | Environmental Matters  The soil and groundwater at Argo-Techs Cleveland,
Ohio facility and Costa Mesa, California facility contain elevated levels of
certain contaminants which are currently in the process of being removed
and/or remediated. Because Argo-Tech has certain indemnification rights from
former owners of the facilities for liabilities arising from these or other
environmental matters, in the opinion of Argo-Techs management, the ultimate
outcome is not expected to materially affect its financial condition, results
of operations or liquidity.
|  
|   |  | Other Matters  Argo-Tech is subject to various legal actions and other
contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of
Argo-Techs management, after reviewing the information which is currently
available with respect to such matters and consulting with Argo-Techs legal
counsel, any liability which may ultimately be incurred with respect to these
additional matters is not expected to materially affect Argo-Techs financial
condition, results of operations or liquidity.

|   |  | In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
(SFAS) No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities. This statement requires that a liability for a cost associated
with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is
incurred. The provisions of this statement are effective for exit or
disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. Management
determined the adoption of this statement had no effect on Argo-Techs
consolidated financial statements.

|   |  | In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 45,
Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees,
Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. FIN 45 requires
that a liability be recorded in the guarantors balance sheet upon issuance
of a guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires disclosures about the
guarantees that an entity has issued, including a rollforward of the
entitys product warranty liabilities. See Note 5 for this disclosure.
Argo-Tech will apply the recognition provisions of FIN 45 prospectively to
guarantees issued after December 31, 2002. Argo-Tech has not guaranteed any
other obligation before or after December 31, 2002 that would require
disclosure under FIN 45.

|   |  | In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities. FIN 46 provides guidance on how to identify a variable interest
entity (VIE) and determine when the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling
interests, and results of operations of a VIE need to be included in a
companys consolidated financial statements. FIN 46 also requires
additional disclosures by primary beneficiaries and other significant
variable interest holders. The provisions of this interpretation became
effective upon issuance. Management believes the adoption of this
interpretation is not likely to have a material impact on Argo-Techs
consolidated financial statements.

|   |  | In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. This
statement establishes how an issuer classifies and measures certain
financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.
It requires that an issuer classify certain financial instruments (as
identified in the scope of the statement), as a liability (or an asset in
some circumstances), that were previously classified as equity. The
provisions of this statement are effective for financial instruments entered
into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the
beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.
Management has not determined the impact, if any, that this statement will
have on Argo-Techs consolidated financial statements.

| |  | The following is managements discussion and analysis of certain significant
factors which have affected Argo-Techs financial position and operating
results during the periods presented in the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements. Argo-Techs fiscal year ends on the last
Saturday of October and is identified according to the calendar year in
which it ends.

| |  | Argo-Techs condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the
selection and application of accounting policies that require management to
make significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions
are an integral part of our condensed consolidated financial statements and
are based on our knowledge and experience about past and current events.
Accounting policies that we believe are most critical to our financial
condition and operating results pertain to the valuation of accounts
receivable, valuation of excess and obsolete inventory, goodwill and
intangible assets and revenue recognition. Argo-Techs significant
accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial
statements included with its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 26,
2002.

| |  | Argo-Techs results of operations are subject to fluctuations from quarter
to quarter due to changes in demand for its products, changes in product mix
and other factors. Demand for its products can vary from quarter to quarter
due to changes in demand for, and timing of deliveries of, OEM, aftermarket
and military products and services. In particular, the timing of
Argo-Techs aftermarket sales tends not to occur on a predictable schedule
and, furthermore, the sales tend to occur in large quantities that can
significantly impact quarterly comparisons. Accordingly, year-to-year and
quarter-to-quarter comparisons of quarterly results may not be meaningful,
and quarterly results during the year are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for any future period or for the entire year.

| |  | Net revenues for the 13 week period ended July 26, 2003 increased $1.7
million, or 4.5%, to $39.4 million from $37.7 million for the 13 week period
ended July 27, 2002. This increase was primarily due to an increase in
industrial revenues. While aerospace revenues in total remained unchanged,
an increase of $1.7 million of military revenues was offset by a decrease of
$1.7 million in commercial aerospace revenues. Commercial OEM revenues
remained constant with last year at $4.9 million and commercial aftermarket
revenues decreased $1.7 million, or 11.5%, to $13.1 million in the 13 week
period ended July 26, 2003. Commercial aftermarket revenues were lower
primarily due to a decrease in the demand for spare part sales and repair
and overhaul activities. The lower demand for aftermarket sales and
activities is a result of the reduced flying by commercial airlines, the
availability of spare parts taken from parked aircraft and deferral of
maintenance. Military revenues increased primarily due to revenue related
to sales of main engine pumps for the KC-135, increased sales of F-16 and
F-22 airframe components, an increase in revenues related to airframe
components on the Joint Strike Fighter development program and higher sales
of aftermarket parts on a variety of aerial refueling and airframe programs,
offset by a decrease in revenue related to KC-135 aerial refueling pumps due
to the completion of the retrofit program earlier this year. The $1.7
million increase in industrial revenues was primarily attributable to
increased ground fueling and cryogenic pump revenues offset by a decrease in
industrial gas turbine revenues.

| |  | Operating expenses for the 13 week period ended July 26, 2003 decreased $0.4
million, or 4.3%, to $9.0 million from $9.4 million in the 13 week period
ended July 27, 2002. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease
of $0.7 million in research and development expenses due to an increase in
customer paid development expenses, which are included in cost of revenues,
and a decrease in spending related to programs nearing completion. The
decrease in research and development expense was partially offset by an
increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.3 million.
Selling, general and administrative expenses includes $0.6 million due to a
change in classification and allocation of certain costs from cost of sales
and $0.3 million of severance costs associated with a reduction in the
salaried workforce, offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in non-cash ESOP
compensation expense and an increase in miscellaneous other income.
Operating expenses as a percent of revenues decreased to 22.8% for the 13
week period ended July 26, 2003 as compared to 24.9% for the 13 week period
ended July 27, 2002.

million, or 2.8%, to $115.4 million from $112.3 million for the 39 week
period ended July 27, 2002. This increase was primarily due to an increase
in aerospace revenues of $0.5 million and a $2.6 million increase in
industrial revenues. The increase in aerospace revenues was attributable to
an increase of $8.4 million in military revenues offset by a decrease of
$7.9 million of commercial aerospace revenues. Commercial OEM revenues

| |  | Aerospace gross profit for the 39 week period ended July 26, 2003 decreased
$0.8 million, or 2.0%, to $38.6 million from $39.4 million in the 39 week
period ended July 27, 2002. Gross margin decreased to 44.0% for the 39 week
period ended July 26, 2003 from 45.1% in the 39 week period ended July 27,
2002. The decrease in gross profit and gross margin is primarily
attributable to a decrease in higher margin commercial aerospace aftermarket
revenues partially offset by an increase in military revenues, a change in
classification and allocation of $1.7 million of certain costs to selling,
general and administrative expenses and a reduction in non-cash ESOP
compensation expense. Industrial gross profit for the 39 week period ended
July 26, 2003 increased $0.2 million, or 2.2%, to $9.1 million from $8.9
million in the 39 week period ended July 27, 2002. The increase in gross
profit was attributable to an increase in ground fueling and cryogenic pump
revenues partially offset by an increase in utility costs associated with
the operation of our business park and a decrease in industrial gas turbine
revenues. Gross margin, which decreased to 33.0% in the 39 week period
ended July 26, 2003 from 35.6% in the 39 week period ended July 27, 2002,
was lower primarily due to the increase in utility costs and an unfavorable
sales mix of ground fueling products.

| |  | Operating expense for the 39 week period ended July 26, 2003 decreased $0.2
million, or 0.7%, to $28.7 million from $28.9 million in the 39 week period
ended July 27, 2002. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased
$1.8 million due to a $1.7 million change in classification and allocation
of certain costs from cost of sales and a $0.7 million increase primarily
related to increased marketing costs, airline bad debt expenses and
severance costs associated with a reduction in the salaried workforce, which
was partially offset by the non-recurrence of a non-cash expense of $0.6
million related to a salaried employee early retirement program in the 39
week period ended July 27, 2002. The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses was offset by a decrease of $2.0 million in research
and development expenses due to an increase in customer paid development
expenses, which are included in cost of revenues, and a decrease in spending
related to programs nearing completion. Operating expenses as a percent of
revenues decreased to 24.9% for the 39 week period ended July 26, 2003 as
compared to 25.7% for the 39 week period ended July 27, 2002.

| |  | Income from operations for the 39 week period ended July 26, 2003 remained
constant with the 39 week period ended July 27, 2002 at $18.8 million. As a
percent of revenues, income from operations for the 39 week period ended
July 26, 2003 decreased to 16.3% from 16.8% for the 39 week period ended
July 27, 2002. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in higher
margin commercial aerospace aftermarket revenues, a decrease in industrial
gas turbine revenues, an increase in utility costs associated with the
operation of our business park and an increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses, partially offset by the decrease in non-cash ESOP
compensation expense and research and development expenses.

million, or 1.2%, to $16.0 million from $16.2 million for the 39 week period
ended July 27, 2002 due to lower outstanding borrowings which were partially
offset by an increase in interest rates on the term loans.

26, 2003 as compared to a benefit of $0.1 million for the 39 week period
ended July 27, 2002. This increase is primarily due to the non-recurrence
of favorable tax adjustments recorded in the 39 week period ended July 27,
2002.

| |  | Argo-Tech is a holding company that receives all of its operating income
from its subsidiaries. As a result, Argo-Techs primary source of liquidity
for conducting business activities and servicing its indebtedness has been
cash flows from operating activities.

| |  | Cash and cash equivalents for the 39 week period ended July 26, 2003
decreased $7.9 million to $9.9 million. This was primarily due to the
scheduled repayment of term loans, payment of financing fees associated with
amending and restating the credit agreement, capital expenditures and a
slight increase in working capital requirements, offset by adjusted net
income.

| |  | Capital expenditures for the 39 weeks ended July 26, 2003 totaled $1.3
million compared to $1.1 million for the 39 weeks ended July 27, 2002.
Argo-Tech expects to incur capital expenditures of approximately $1.0
million for the remainder of fiscal year 2003, related to the continued
maintenance of facilities, equipment and systems to support current
operating activities.

| |  | In January 2003, Argo-Tech amended and restated its credit facility.
Long-term debt at July 26, 2003 consisted of $27.8 million principal amount
of term loans and $193.5 million principal amount of senior subordinated
notes. Scheduled payments of $14.0 million were made on the term loans in
the 39 week period ended July 26, 2003. At July 26, 2003, Argo-Tech has
available, after $1.2 million in letters of credit, an $18.8 million
revolving credit facility. As of July 26, 2003, there were no outstanding
borrowings on the revolving credit facility. The credit facility contains
no restrictions on the ability of Argo-Techs subsidiaries to make
distributions to Argo-Tech.

| |  | We believe that cash flow from operations will provide adequate funds for
our working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and near term debt
service obligations. Our ability to fund our operations, make planned
capital expenditures, and to make scheduled payments on our indebtedness
depends on our future operating performance and cash flow. We may need to
refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. There
can be no assurance that Argo-Tech will be able to refinance any of its
indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all. These items are
subject to prevailing conditions and to financial, business, and other
factors, some of which are beyond our control.

| |  | In the ordinary course of operations, Argo-Techs major market risk exposure
is to changing interest rates, primarily with respect to its long-term debt
obligations. At July 26, 2003, Argo-Tech had fixed rate debt totaling $195
million, including $1.5 million of accretion, at 8.625% and variable rate
debt under its existing credit facility of $27.8 million calculated at
Argo-Techs choice using an alternate base rate (ABR) or LIBOR, plus a
supplemental percentage determined by the ratio of debt to EBITDA. The
variable rate is not to exceed ABR plus 2.50% or LIBOR plus 3.50%.
Argo-Tech currently has no derivative contracts and does not enter into
derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. A 10% fluctuation
in interest rates would not materially affect Argo-Techs financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.

| |  | (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The term
disclosure controls and procedures is defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and
15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act).
These rules refer to the controls and other procedures of a company
that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
by the company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time
periods. Argo-Techs Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer have evaluated the design, operation and effectiveness of
Argo-Techs disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded,
based on such evaluation, that such controls and procedures were
effective at ensuring that required information will be disclosed in
Argo-Techs reports filed under the Exchange Act as of July 26, 2003.
