Item 1.  BUSINESS

General

     We are a leading worldwide aerospace and industrial fastener manufacturer
and distribution supply chain services provider and, through Banner Aerospace,
an international supplier to airlines and general aviation businesses,
distributing a wide range of aircraft parts and related support services.
Through internal growth and strategic acquisitions, we have become one of the
leading suppliers of fasteners to aircraft OEMs, such as Boeing, European
Aeronautic Defense and Space Company, General Electric, Lockheed Martin, and
Northrop Grumman.

     Our business consists of three segments: aerospace fasteners, aerospace
distribution and real estate operations. The aerospace fasteners segment
manufactures and markets high performance fastening systems used in the
manufacture and maintenance of commercial and military aircraft. Our aerospace
distribution segment stocks and distributes a wide variety of aircraft parts to
commercial airlines and air cargo carriers, fixed-base operators, corporate
aircraft operators and other aerospace companies. Our real estate operations
segment owns and operates a shopping center located in Farmingdale, New York.



<PAGE>


    Our business strategy is as follows:

     Maintain Quality Leadership. The aerospace market demands precision
manufacturing, and OEMs must certify that all parts meet stringent Federal
Aviation Administration's regulations and equivalent foreign regulations. All of
our plants are ISO-9000 approved. We have won numerous industry and customer
quality awards and are a preferred supplier for many major aerospace customers.
In order to be named a preferred supplier, a company must qualify its products
through a specified customer quality assurance program and strictly adhere to
it. Approvals and awards we have obtained include: Boeing D1 9000 Rev A; Boeing
(St. Louis) Silver Supplier; Boeing Source Approved; DaimlerChrysler Aerospace
Source Approved; General Electric Source Approved; Pratt & Whitney Source
Approved; Lockheed-Martin Star Supplier; and DISC Large Business Supplier of the
Year.

    Lower Manufacturing Costs. Over the past few years, we have invested
significantly in state-of-the-art machinery, employee training and manufacturing
techniques, to produce products at the lowest cost while maintaining high
quality. This investment in process superiority has resulted in increased
capacity, lower break-even levels and faster cycle times, while reducing defect
levels and improving responsiveness to customer needs. For example, the customer
rejection rate at our aerospace fasteners segment has fallen from an average of
18.2% in fiscal 1995 to an average of 1.3% for fiscal 2001. We view these
continuous improvements as one of the keys to our business success that will
allow us to better manage industry cycles.

    Supply Chain Services. Our aerospace industry customers are increasingly
requiring additional supply chain management services as they seek to manage
inventory and lower their manufacturing costs. In response, we are developing a
number of logistics and supply chain management services that we expect will
contribute to our growth.

    Capitalize on Global Presence. The aerospace industry is global and
customers increasingly seek suppliers with the ability to provide reliable and
timely service worldwide. Our acquisition, of Kaynar Technologies, in April
1999, resulted in our increased manufacturing capabilities in the U.S., Europe,
and Australia, and increased our sales presence worldwide. Our plants are
equipped with cutting-edge manufacturing technology, which allows us to produce
seamlessly, customer orders on a worldwide basis using, at each of our
facilities, the same specification and quality assurance systems.

     Growth through Acquisitions. Despite a trend toward consolidation, the
aerospace fasteners industry remains fragmented. Consolidation has been driven,
in part, by the combination of the OEMs as they seek to reduce their procurement
costs. We have successfully integrated a number of acquisitions, achieving
material synergies in the process, and anticipate further opportunities to do so
in the future.

     Our strategy is based on the following strengths:

     Expanded Product Range. As a result of the acquisition of Kaynar
Technologies, we greatly expanded the range of products we offer. This expansion
permits us to provide our customers with more complete fastening solutions, by
offering engineering and supply chain services across the breadth of our
customers' needs. For example, our internally threaded fasteners, such as engine
nuts, which were formerly manufactured by Kaynar Technologies, are now being
sold in combination with our externally threaded fasteners, such as bolts and
pins, to provide a single fastening system. This limits the inventory needs of
the customer, minimizes handling costs and reduces waste.

     Long-Term Customer Relationships. We work closely with our customers to
provide high quality engineering solutions accompanied by our superior service
levels. As a result, our customer relationships are generally long-term. We
continue to benefit from the trend of OEMs efforts to reduce the number of their
suppliers in an effort to lower costs and ensure quality and availability. We
have become or been retained as a key supplier to the OEMs and increased our
overall share of OEM business. OEMs are increasingly demanding in terms of
overall service level, including just-in-time delivery of components to the
production line. We believe that our focus on quality and customer service will
remain the cornerstone of our relationships with our customers.

     Diverse End Markets. Although a significant proportion of our sales are to
OEMs in the commercial aerospace industry, we have significant sales to the
defense/aerospace aftermarket and industrial markets. In addition, our
distribution business is well diversified with a very low OEM component. We
believe this diversification will help mitigate the effects of the OEM cycle on
our results.

     Experienced Management Teams. We have management teams with many years of
experience in the aerospace fasteners industry and a history of improving
quality, lowering costs and raising the level of customer service, leading to
higher overall profitability. In addition, our management teams have achieved
growth by successfully integrating a number of acquisitions.

     Our recent developments are incorporated herein by reference from "Recent
Developments and Significant Business Combinations" included in Item 7
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial
Condition".

   Sales and Markets

     The products of our aerospace fasteners segment are sold primarily to
domestic and foreign OEMs of airframes and engines, as well as to subcontractors
of OEMs, and to the maintenance and repair market through distributors.
Approximately 77% of our sales are to domestic customers. Major customers
include OEMs such as Boeing, European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company, and
General Electric and their subcontractors, as well as distributors such as
Honeywell. Many OEMs have implemented programs to reduce inventories and pursue
just-in-time relationships. In response, we expanded our efforts to provide
supply chain services through our global customer service units. Sales of $99
million to Boeing accounted for approximately 16% of our consolidated sales in
fiscal 2001. Also, a large portion of our revenues come from customers providing
parts or services to Boeing, including defense sales, and the European
Aeronautic Defense and Space Company and their subcontractors. Accordingly, we
are dependent on the business of those manufacturers.

     Revenues in our aerospace fasteners segment are closely related to aircraft
production, which, in turn, is related in part to air miles flown. As OEMs
searched for cost cutting opportunities during the aerospace industry recession
of 1993-1995, parts manufacturers, including us, accepted lower-priced orders
and/or smaller quantity orders to maintain market share, at lower profit
margins. However, during recent years, this situation has improved as build
rates in the aerospace industry have increased. We have been able to provide our
major customers with favorable pricing, while maintaining or increasing gross
margins by negotiating for larger minimum lot sizes that are more economical to
manufacture.

     Fasteners also have applications in the automotive/industrial markets,
where numerous special fasteners are required, such as engine bolts, wheel bolts
and turbo charger tension bolts. We are actively targeting all markets where
precision fasteners are used.

   Manufacturing and Production

     Our aerospace fasteners segment has fifteen primary manufacturing
facilities, of which seven are located in the United States, seven are located
in Europe and one is located in Australia. Each facility has complete production
capability. Each plant is designed to produce a specified product or group of
products, determined by the production process involved and certification
requirements. Our aerospace fasteners segment's largest customers have
recognized our quality and operational controls by conferring their advanced
quality systems certifications at substantially all of our facilities (e.g.
Boeing's D1-9000A). We have received all necessary quality and product approvals
from OEMs.

     We have a modern information system at all of our U.S. facilities, which
was expanded to most of our European operations in fiscal 1999 and 2000. The
system performs detailed and timely cost analysis of production by product and
facility. Updated IT systems also help us to better service our customers. OEMs
require each product to be produced in an OEM-qualified/OEM-approved facility.

   Competition

     Despite intense competition in the industry, we remain the largest
manufacturer of aerospace fasteners. Based on calendar 2000 information, the
worldwide aerospace fastener market is estimated to be $1.4 billion, before
distributor resale. We hold approximately 40% of the market and compete with SPS
Technologies, GFI Industries, and the Huck International division of Alcoa.

     Quality, performance, service and price are generally the prime competitive
factors in the aerospace fasteners segment. Our broad product range allows us to
serve more fully each OEM and distributor. Our product array is diverse and
offers customers a large selection to address various production needs. We seek
to maintain our technological edge and competitive advantage over our
competitors, and have demonstrated superior production methods, new product
development and supply chain services to meet our customer demands. We seek to
work closely with OEMs and involve ourselves early in the design process so that
our fasteners may readily be incorporated into the design of their products.

Aerospace Distribution Segment

     Through our subsidiary Banner Aerospace, Inc., we offer a wide variety of
aircraft parts and component repair and overhaul services. The aircraft parts,
which we distribute are either purchased on the open market or acquired from
OEMs as an authorized distributor. No single distributor arrangement is material
to our financial condition. The aerospace distribution segment accounted for 14%
of our total sales in fiscal 2001.

   Products

     Products of the aerospace distribution segment include rotable parts such
as flight data recorders, radar and navigation systems, instruments, hydraulic
and electrical components, space components and certain defense related items.

     Rotable parts are sometimes purchased as new parts, but are generally
purchased in the aftermarket and are then overhauled by us or for us by outside
contractors, including OEMs or FAA-licensed facilities. Rotables are sold in a
variety of conditions such as new, overhauled, serviceable and "as is". Rotables
may also be exchanged instead of sold. An exchange occurs when an item in
inventory is exchanged for a customer's part and the customer is charged an
exchange fee.

     An extensive inventory of products and a quick response time are essential
in providing support to our customers. Another key factor in selling to our
customers is our ability to maintain a system that traces a part back to the
manufacturer or repair facility. We also offer immediate shipment of parts in
aircraft-on-ground situations.

     Through our FAA-licensed repair station we provide a number of services
such as component repair and overhaul services. Component repair and overhaul
capabilities include pressurization, instrumentation, avionics, aircraft
accessories and airframe components. Aircraft services include aircraft sales,
inspections, repairs, maintenance, modifications and avionics for corporate
aircraft.

   Sales and Markets

     Our aerospace distribution segment sells its products in the United States
and abroad to commercial airlines and air cargo carriers, fixed-base operators,
corporate aircraft operators, distributors and other aerospace companies.
Approximately 75% of our sales are to domestic purchasers, some of which may
represent offshore users.

     Our aerospace distribution segment conducts marketing efforts through its
direct sales force, outside representatives and, for some product lines,
overseas sales offices. Sales in the aviation aftermarket depend on price,
service, quality and reputation. Our aerospace distribution segment's business
does not experience significant seasonal fluctuations nor depend on a single
customer.

 Competition

     Our aerospace distribution segment competes with Air Ground Equipment
Services, Duncan Aviation, Stevens Aviation; OEMs such as Honeywell, Rockwell
Collins, Raytheon, and Litton; other repair and overhaul organizations; and many
smaller companies.

Real Estate Operations Segment

     Our real estate operations segment owns and operates a shopping center
located in Farmingdale, New York. Rental revenue was higher in the fiscal 2001
due to an increase in the amount of space leased to tenants. As of June 30,
2001, we have leased approximately 74% of the developed shopping center.

Foreign Operations

     Our operations  are located  throughout the world.  Inter-area  sales are
not significant to the total revenue of any geographic area.  Export sales are
made by U.S. businesses to customers in non-U.S. countries, whereas foreign
sales are made by our non-U.S. subsidiaries.  For our sales results by
geographic area and export sales, see Note 20 of our Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data".

Backlog of Orders

     Backlog is important for all our operations, due to the long-term
production requirements of our customers. Our backlog of orders as of June 30,
2001 in the aerospace fasteners segment amounted to approximately $220 million.
We anticipate that in excess of 85% of the aggregate backlog at June 30, 2001
will be delivered by June 30, 2002. Often we are awarded long-term commitments
from our customers to provide significant quantities of aircraft fastening
components over periods ranging generally from three-to-five years. However,
amounts related to such agreements are not included in our backlog until our
customers specify delivery dates for the fasteners ordered.

Suppliers

    We are not materially dependent upon any one supplier, but we are dependent
upon a wide range of subcontractors, vendors and suppliers of materials to meet
our commitments to our customers. From time to time, we enter into exclusive
supply contracts in return for logistics and price advantages. We do not believe
that any one of these contracts would impair our operations if a supplier failed
to perform.

     Nevertheless, commercial deposits of certain metals, such as titanium and
nickel, which are required for the manufacture of several of our products, are
found only in certain parts of the world. The availability and prices of these
metals may be influenced by private or governmental cartels, changes in world
politics, unstable governments in exporting nations, or inflation. Similarly,
supplies of steel and other less exotic metals used by us may also be subject to
variation in availability. We purchase raw materials, which include metals,
composites, and finishes used in production, from over twenty different
suppliers. We have entered into several long-term contracts to supply titanium
and alloy metals. In the past, fluctuations in the price of titanium have had an
adverse effect on our sales margins.

Research and Patents

    We own patents relating to the design and manufacture of certain of our
products and have licenses of technology covered by the patents of other
companies. We do not believe that any of our business segments are dependent
upon any single patent.

Personnel

   As of June 30, 2001, we had approximately 5,500 employees. Of these,
approximately 3,600 are based in the United States and 1,900 are based in Europe
and elsewhere. Approximately 20% of our employees were covered by collective
bargaining agreements. Although, in the past, we have had isolated work
stoppages in France, these stoppages have not had a material impact on our
business. Overall, we believe that relations with our employees are good.

Environmental Matters

    A discussion of our environmental matters is included in Note 18,
"Contingencies", to our Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part II,
Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" and is incorporated herein

the loss on the disposition of Banner Aerospace's Solair subsidiary and the loss
recognized on the sale of Dallas Aerospace. The results of Solair are included
in the periods from March 1996 through December 1998, until disposition. The
results of Dallas Aerospace are included in the periods from March 1996 through
November 1999, until disposition. These transactions materially affect the
comparability of the information reflected in the selected financial data.

     EBITDA represents the sum of operating income before depreciation and
amortization. Included in EBITDA are impairment expense of $5.9 million in
fiscal 2001 and restructuring charges of $8.6 million and $6.4 million in fiscal
2000 and 1999, respectively. We consider EBITDA to be an indicative measure of
our operating performance due to the significance of our long-lived assets and
because such data is considered useful by the investment community to better
understand our results, and can be used to measure our ability to service debt,
fund capital expenditures and expand our business. EBITDA is not a measure of
financial performance under GAAP, may not be comparable to other similarly
titled measures of other companies and should not be considered as an
alternative either to net income as an indicator of our operating performance,
or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity. Cash expenditures for various
long-term assets, interest expense, and income taxes have been, and will be
incurred which are not reflected in the EBITDA presentation.

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

     The Fairchild  Corporation was incorporated in October 1969, under the laws
of the State of Delaware, under the name of Banner Industries, Inc. On November
15, 1990, we changed our name from Banner Industries, Inc. to The Fairchild
Corporation.  We own 100% of RHI Holdings, Inc. and Banner Aerospace, Inc. RHI
is the owner of 100% of Fairchild Holding Corp.  Our principal operations are
conducted through Fairchild Holding Corp. and Banner Aerospace.

     The following discussion and analysis provide information which management
believes is relevant to the assessment and understanding of our consolidated
results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

GENERAL

     We are a leading worldwide aerospace and industrial fastener manufacturer
and distribution supply chain services provider and, through Banner Aerospace,
an international supplier to airlines and general aviation businesses,
distributing a wide range of aircraft parts and related support services.
Through internal growth and strategic acquisitions, we have become one of the
leading suppliers of fasteners to aircraft OEMs, such as Boeing, European
Aeronautic Defense and Space Company, General Electric, Lockheed Martin, and
Northrop Grumman.

     Our business consists of three segments: aerospace fasteners, aerospace
distribution and real estate operations. The aerospace fasteners segment
manufactures and markets high performance fastening systems used in the
manufacture and maintenance of commercial and military aircraft. Our aerospace
distribution segment stocks and distributes a wide variety of aircraft parts to
commercial airlines and air cargo carriers, fixed-base operators, corporate
aircraft operators and other aerospace companies. Our real estate operations
segment owns and operates a shopping center located in Farmingdale, New York.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

     Certain statements in this financial discussion and analysis by management
contain certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to our financial
condition, results of operation and business. These statements relate to
analyses and other information, which are based on forecasts of future results
and estimates of amounts not yet determinable. These statements also relate to
our future prospects, developments and business strategies. These
forward-looking statements are identified by their use of terms and phrases such
as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may,"
"plan," "predict," "project," "will" and similar terms and phrases, including
references to assumptions. These forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties, including current trend information, projections for deliveries,
backlog and other trend estimates, that may cause our actual future activities
and results of operations to be materially different from those suggested or
described in this financial discussion and analysis by management. These risks
include: product demand; our dependence on the aerospace industry; reliance on
Boeing and European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company; customer satisfaction
and quality issues; labor disputes; competition, including recent intense price
competition; our ability to achieve and execute internal business plans;
worldwide political instability and economic growth; reduced passenger miles
flown as a result of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United
states; the cost and availability of electric power to operate our plants; and
the impact of any economic downturns and inflation.

     If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materializes, or if
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially
from those expected, estimated or projected. Given these uncertainties, users of
the information included in this financial discussion and analysis by
management, including investors and prospective investors are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We do not intend to
update the forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report, even if
new information, future events or other circumstances have made them incorrect
or misleading.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   Business Transactions

     The following summarizes certain business combinations and transactions we
completed which significantly affect the comparability of the period to period
results presented in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition.

   Fiscal 2000 Transactions

     On July 29, 1999, we sold our 31.9% interest in Nacanco Paketleme to
American National Can Group, Inc. for approximately $48.2 million. Our
investment in Nacanco began in November 1987, and throughout the years we
invested approximately $6.2 million in Nacanco. Since the inception of our
investment, we recorded equity earnings of $25.7 million and received cash
dividends of $12.5 million from Nacanco. We recognized a $25.7 million
nonrecurring gain from this divestiture in the nine months ended April 2, 2000.
We also agreed to provide consulting services over a three-year period, at an
annual fee of approximately $1.5 million. We used the net proceeds from the
disposition to reduce our indebtedness. As a result of this disposition, our
interest expense was reduced. However, our equity earnings and dividend proceeds
also significantly decreased. In accordance with our plan to dispose of non-core
assets, the opportunity to dispose of our interest in Nacanco Paketleme
presented us with an excellent opportunity to realize a substantial return on
our investment and allowed us to reduce our then outstanding indebtedness by
approximately 8.6%.

     On September 3, 1999, we completed the disposal of our Camloc Gas Springs
division to a subsidiary of Arvin Industries Inc. for approximately $2.7
million. In addition, we received $2.4 million from Arvin Industries for a
covenant not to compete. We recognized a $2.3 million nonrecurring pre-tax gain
from this disposition. We decided to dispose of the Camloc Gas Springs division
in order to concentrate our focus on our operations in the aerospace industry.

     On December 1, 1999, we disposed of substantially all of the assets and
certain liabilities of our Dallas Aerospace subsidiary to United Technologies
Inc. for approximately $57.0 million. No gain or loss was recognized from this
transaction, as the proceeds received approximated the net carrying value of
these assets. Approximately $37.0 million of the proceeds from this disposition
were used to reduce our term indebtedness and our interest expense. As a result
of this transaction, we reported a reduction in revenues of $21.7 million and
operating income of $2.1 million for the nine months ended April 1, 2001, as
compared to the nine months ended April 2, 2000. We estimated that the market
base for the older-type of engines that we were selling was shrinking, and that
we would be required to invest a substantial amount of cash to purchase
newer-type of engines to maintain market share. The opportunity to exit this
business presented us with an opportunity to improve cash flows by reducing our
indebtedness by $37.0 million, and by preserving our cash, which would otherwise
have had to have been invested to upgrade our inventory.

     On April 13, 2000, we completed a spin-off to our stockholders of the
shares of Fairchild (Bermuda) Ltd. On April 14, 2000, Fairchild (Bermuda) sold
to Convac Technologies Ltd. the Optical Disc Equipment Group business formerly
owned by Fairchild Technologies. Subsequently, on April 14, 2000, Fairchild
(Bermuda), renamed Global Sources Ltd., completed an exchange of approximately
95% of its shares for 100% of the shares of Trade Media Holdings Limited, an
Asian based, business-to-business online and traditional marketplace services
provider. Immediately after the share exchange, our stockholders owned 1,183,081
shares of the 26,152,308 issued shares of Global Sources. Global Sources shares
are listed on the NASDAQ under the symbol "GSOL". This transaction allowed us to
complete our formal plan to dispose of Fairchild Technologies and provided our
shareholders with a unique opportunity to participate in a new public entity.

   Fiscal 1999 Transactions

     On December 31, 1998, Banner consummated the sale of Solair, Inc., its
largest subsidiary in the rotables group of the aerospace distribution segment,
to Kellstrom Industries, Inc., in exchange for approximately $60.4 million in
cash and a warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock of Kellstrom. In
December 1998, Banner recorded a $19.3 million pre-tax loss from the sale of
Solair. This loss was included in cost of goods sold as it was primarily
attributable to the bulk sale of inventory at prices below the carrying amount
of inventory. The opportunity to exit this business presented us with an
opportunity to improve cash flows by reducing our indebtedness by $60.4 million,
and by preserving our cash, which would otherwise have had to have been required
to be invested to upgrade our inventory.

     On February 22, 1999, we used available cash to acquire 77.3% of SNEP S.A.
By June 30, 1999, we had purchased significantly all of the remaining shares of
SNEP. The total amount paid was approximately $8.0 million, including $1.1
million of debt assumed, in a business combination accounted for as a purchase.
The total cost of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net assets of
SNEP by approximately $4.3 million, which is being allocated as goodwill, and
amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. SNEP is a French
manufacturer of precision-machined self-locking nuts and special threaded
fasteners serving the European industrial, aerospace and automotive markets. We
acquired SNEP to compliment our existing product group and expand our European
customer base.

     On April 8, 1999, we acquired the remaining 15% of the outstanding common
and preferred stock of Banner Aerospace, Inc. not already owned by us, through
the merger of Banner with one of our subsidiaries. Under the terms of the merger
with Banner, we issued 2,981,412 shares of our Class A common stock to acquire
all of Banner's common and preferred stock, other than those shares already
owned by us. Banner is now our wholly-owned subsidiary.

     On April 20, 1999, we completed the acquisition of all the capital stock of
Kaynar Technologies Inc. for approximately $222 million and assumed
approximately $103 million of existing debt, the majority of which was
refinanced at closing. In addition, we paid $28 million for a covenant not to
compete from Kaynar Technologies' largest preferred shareholder. The total cost
of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net assets of Kaynar
Technologies by approximately $282 million, which is being allocated as
goodwill, and amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. The
acquisition was financed with existing cash, the sale of $225 million of 10 3/4%
senior subordinated notes due 2009 and proceeds from a new bank credit facility.
We acquired Kaynar Technologies primarily to increase our existing product base,
expand our customer base, and create the opportunity to generate significant
synergistic cash savings. The acquisition also ensured that we would remain the
world's largest manufacturer of aerospace fasteners.

     On June 18, 1999, we completed the acquisition of Technico S.A. for
approximately $4.1 million and assumed approximately $2.2 million of Technico's
existing debt. The total cost of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the
net assets of Technico by approximately $3.4 million, which is being allocated
as goodwill, and amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. The
acquisition was financed with additional borrowings from our credit facility. We
acquired Technico to expand our European customer base.

  Consolidated Results

     We currently report in three principal business segments: aerospace
fasteners, aerospace distribution and real estate operations. The results of
Camloc Gas Springs division, prior to its disposition, were included in the
Corporate and Other classification. The following table provides the historical
sales and operating income of our operations for fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999. The
following table also illustrates sales and operating income of our operations by
segment, on an unaudited pro forma basis, for fiscal 2000 and 1999, as if we had
operated in a consistent manner in each of the reported periods. The pro forma
results represent the impact of our dispositions of Dallas Aerospace in December
1999 and Camloc Gas Springs in September 1999, as if these transactions had
occurred at the beginning of fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively. The fiscal 1999
pro forma results also represent the impact of our disposition of Solair in
December 1998, our acquisition of Kaynar Technologies in April 1999, and our
merger with Banner Aerospace in April 1999, as if these transactions had
occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1999. The pro forma information is based on
the historical financial statements of these companies, giving effect to the
aforementioned transactions. The pro forma information is not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations, that would actually have occurred if
these transactions had been in effect since the beginning of fiscal 2000 and
fiscal 1999, nor is it necessarily indicative of our future results.

<FN>

(a)      Includes  rental  revenue  of $7.0  million,  $3.6  million  and $0.4
         million  in  fiscal  2001,  2000 and  1999, respectively.
(b)      Fiscal 2000 results include restructuring charges of $8.6 million in
         the aerospace fasteners segment. Fiscal 1999 results include inventory
         impairment charges of $41.5 million in the aerospace distribution
         segment, costs relating to acquisitions of $23.6 million and
         restructuring charges of $5.5 million in the aerospace fasteners
         segment, $0.3 million in the aerospace distribution segment, and $0.5
         million at corporate.
(c)      Fiscal 2001 results includes one-time impairment charges of $1.1
         million in the aerospace fasteners segment, $2.4 million in the
         aerospace distribution segment, and $2.5 million in the real estate
         segment.

</TABLE>

     Net Sales of $622.8 million in 2001 decreased by $12.6 million, or 2.0%,
compared to sales of $635.4 million in 2000. The results for 2000, included
revenue of $22.4 million from Dallas Aerospace and the Camloc Gas Springs
division prior to their respective dispositions. Additionally, sales in 2001
were adversely affected by approximately $24.4 million, due to the foreign
currency impact on our European operations. On a pro forma basis and excluding
the period-to-period foreign currency effect, net sales increased by $34.3
million for 2001, as compared to 2000. Net sales of $635.4 million in 2000
increased by $18.0 million, or 2.9%, compared to sales of $617.3 million in
1999. The improvement is attributable primarily to the additional revenues
provided by the acquisition of Kaynar Technologies, offset partially by the
dispositions of Solair and Dallas Aerospace. On a pro forma basis, net sales
decreased 9.9% in 2000, as compared to 1999, due primarily to reduced bookings
caused by Boeing's inventory reduction program.

    Rental revenue was $7.0 million in 2001, $3.6 million in 2000 and $0.4
million in 1999. Rental revenue was higher in the 2001 and 2000 periods due to
an increase in the amount of space leased to tenants.

     Gross margin as a percentage of sales was 25.1%, 25.7%, and 18.2%, in 2001,
2000, and 1999, respectively. Included in cost of goods sold for 1999 was a
charge of $41.5 million recognized in our aerospace distribution segment from
the dispositions of Solair and Dallas Aerospace. Of this charge, $19.3 million
was attributable to Solair's bulk sale of inventory at prices below the carrying
amount. Excluding these charges, gross margin as a percentage of sales was 24.9%
in fiscal 1999. The change in margins in 2001, 2000 and 1999 periods are
attributable to a change in product mix as a result of the acquisitions and
dispositions.

     Selling, general & administrative expense as a percentage of sales was
20.1%, 20.6%, and 24.1%, in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Included in
selling, general & administrative expense in fiscal 1999 were $23.6 million of
one-time costs associated primarily with the acquisition of Kaynar Technologies.
Excluding these costs, selling, general & administrative expense as a percentage
of sales would have been 20.3% in 1999.

    Other income decreased $4.9 million in 2001, compared to 2000. The decrease
was due primarily to $5.1 million of income recognized from the disposition of
non-core property in 2000, and a $0.7 million loss recognized from the
disposition of non-core property during 2001. Other income increased $7.3
million in 2000 as compared to 1999, due primarily to $5.1 million of gains
recognized on the disposition of real estate.

     An impairment charge of $5.9 million was recorded in 2001. The impairment
charge included $2.4 million due to the closing of a small subsidiary at our
aerospace distribution segment, of which $1.7 million represented the write-off
of goodwill, and $0.4 million represented severance payments. The impairment
charge also included a write-off of approximately $2.3 million of improvements
at our shopping center, and $1.1 million for the write-off of leasehold
improvements from the relocation of our domestic distribution facility in our
aerospace fasteners segment.

     In fiscal 1999, we recorded $6.4 million of restructuring charges. Of this
amount, $0.5 million was recorded at our corporate office for severance
benefits, and $0.3 million was recorded at our aerospace distribution segment
for the write-off of building improvements from premises vacated. The remaining
$5.6 million was recorded as a result of the costs incurred from the initial
integration of Kaynar Technologies into our aerospace fasteners segment, i.e.
for severance benefits ($3.9 million), for product integration costs incurred as
of June 30, 1999 ($1.3 million), and for the write down of fixed assets ($0.3
million). In fiscal 2000, we recorded $8.6 million of restructuring charges as a
result of the continued integration of Kaynar Technologies into our aerospace
fasteners segment. All of the charges recorded were a direct result of product
and plant integration costs incurred as of June 30, 2000. These costs were
classified as restructuring and were the direct result of formal plans to move
equipment, close plants and to terminate employees. Such costs are nonrecurring
in nature. Other than a reduction in our existing cost structure, none of the
restructuring charges resulted in future increases in earnings or represented an
accrual of future costs.

     Operating income of $21.3 million in 2001 decreased by $1.9 million as
compared to operating income of $23.2 million in 2000. The results in fiscal
2000 included $2.1 million of operating income from Dallas Aerospace, prior to
its disposition and $5.1 million of income recognized from the disposition of
non-core property, offset partially by restructuring charges of $7.5 million.
Operating income in fiscal 2001 was adversely affected by approximately $3.2
million due to the foreign currency impact on our European operations, and by
the impairment charge of $5.9 million. Operating income of $23.2 million in
fiscal 2000 increased $69.2 million, or 150.6%, compared to an operating loss of
$45.9 million in fiscal 1999. Fiscal 1999 was affected by $71.4 million of
expenses recognized for inventory impairment, restructuring costs and other
costs related to acquisitions. Fiscal 2000 results also improved due to $5.1
million of gains recognized on the sale of real estate, and $3.2 million in
increased rental revenue.

     Net interest expense increased $11.6 million in fiscal 2001 as compared to
fiscal 2000. However, cash interest expense of $50.5 million in 2001 actually
decreased by $4.1 million, as compared to cash interest expense of $54.5 million
in 2000. We recognized interest expense of $3.5 million in 2001, as compared to
$1.0 million in 2000, resulting from $30.8 million borrowed in March 2000, and
we capitalized $5.8 million of interest expense in fiscal 2000 from real estate
development activities at our shopping center in Farmingdale, New York. Interest
expense from the accretion of discount on long-term liabilities was $7.9 million
in 2001, as compared to $0.1 million in 2000, and reflects primarily a 3/4%
decline in discount rate from our postretirement benefit obligations. Net
interest expense increased by 45.3% in fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999,
as a result of the additional debt we incurred to finance the acquisition of
Kaynar Technologies.

     Investment income (loss), net, was $8.4 million, $9.9 million, and $39.8
million in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Investment income in these
periods was due primarily to recognizing realized gains on investments
liquidated. We recognized a large gain in 1999 from the liquidation of our
position in AlliedSignal to raise funds to acquire Kaynar Technologies.

     The fair market value adjustment of a ten-year $100 million interest rate
contract decreased by $5.6 million in fiscal 2001.

    Nonrecurring income of $28.6 million in fiscal 2000 resulted from $25.7
million, $2.0 million, and $0.9 million gains recognized on the disposition of
our equity investment in Nacanco Paketleme, our Camloc Gas Springs division and
a smaller equity investment, respectively.

     We recorded an income tax benefit of $16.5 million in fiscal 2001,
representing a 52.3% effective tax rate on pre-tax losses from continuing
operations. The tax benefit was higher than the statutory rate due primarily to
the reversal of $3.5 million of tax accruals no longer required. We recorded an
income tax benefit of $4.4 million in fiscal 2000 on earnings from continuing
operations of $17.7 million. A tax benefit was recorded due primarily to a
change in the estimate of required tax accruals. We recorded an income tax
benefit of $13.2 million in fiscal 1999 representing a 36.3% effective tax rate
on pre-tax losses from continuing operations. The tax benefit approximates the
statutory rate.

     Equity in earnings of affiliates improved by $0.5 million in 2001 compared
to 2000, and decreased by $2.1 million in 2000, compared to 1999. The decrease
in 2001 was attributable primarily to $0.1 million of income in 2001, as
compared to $0.3 million of losses from small start-up ventures in 2000. In July
1999, we divested our 31.9% interest in Nacanco and this reduced our equity
earnings in fiscal 2000.

In 1998, we adopted a formal plan to discontinue Fairchild Technologies. In
connection with the adoption of such plan, we recorded an after-tax charge of
$12.0 million and $31.3 million, in discontinued operations, in fiscal 2000 and
1999, respectively. The fiscal 1999 after-tax operating loss from Fairchild
Technologies exceeded the June 1998 estimate recorded for expected losses by
$28.6 million, net of an income tax benefit of $8.1 million, through June 1999.
An additional after-tax charge of $2.8 million, net of an income tax benefit of
$2.4 million, was recorded in fiscal 1999, for estimated remaining losses in
connection with the disposition of Fairchild Technologies. The fiscal 2000
after-tax loss in connection with the final disposition of the remaining
operations of Fairchild Technologies exceeded anticipated losses by $20.0
million, net of an income tax benefit of $8.0 million.

     In fiscal 1999, we recognized an extraordinary loss of $4.2 million, net of
tax, to write-off the remaining deferred loan fees associated with the early
extinguishment of our indebtedness pursuant to our acquisition of Kaynar
Technologies.

     Comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation
adjustments and unrealized holding changes in the fair market value of
available-for-sale investment securities. The fair market value of unrealized
holding securities declined by $1.0 million, $4.0 million and $16.5 million in
fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The changes reflect primarily gains
realized from the liquidation of investments, including AlliedSignal common
stock divested in fiscal 1999. Foreign currency translation adjustments
decreased by $24.5 million, $10.1 million and $2.5 million in fiscal 2001, 2000
and 1999, respectively, due primarily to the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar
against the French Franc and German Mark.

     We adopted SFAS 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" on July 1, 2000. At adoption, we recorded within other comprehensive
income, a decrease of $0.5 million in the fair market value of our $100 million
interest rate swap agreement. The $0.5 million decrease will be amortized over
the remaining life of the interest rate swap agreement using the effective
interest method. The offsetting interest rate swap liability is separately being
reported as a "fair market value of interest rate contract" within other
long-term liabilities. In the statement of earnings we have recorded the net
swap interest accrual as part of interest expense. Unrealized changes in the
fair value of the swap are recorded net of the current interest accrual on a
separate line entitled "decrease in fair market value of interest rate
derivatives."

   Segment Results

  Aerospace Fasteners Segment

     Sales in our Aerospace Fasteners segment increased by $3.3 million, or
0.6%, in fiscal 2001, as compared to fiscal 2000. Sales by our European
operations were adversely effected by approximately $24.4 million in 2001,
compared to 2000, due to the foreign currency impact from the U.S. dollar
strengthening against the Euro. However, our book-to-bill ratio improved to
approximately 106% in 2001, as compared to 99% in 2000, which we believe
indicates an improving market place as compared to the sluggish conditions we
have experienced over the past twelve months. This favorable trend has led to a
$15.8 million increase in backlog to $220.0 million at June 30, 2001, compared
to $204.2 million at June 30, 2000. Sales by our aerospace fasteners segment
increased by $90.9 million to $533.6 million, up 20.5% in fiscal 2000, compared
to fiscal 1999. These improvements reflected growth from acquisitions, offset
partially by weakened demand for our products in the commercial aerospace
industry. On a pro forma basis, sales decreased by 12.5% in fiscal 2000, as
compared to fiscal 1999. In fiscal 2000, our operations in the United States
were negatively impacted by reduced bookings caused by inventory reduction
efforts at Boeing and its ripple effect on prices.

     Operating income increased by $3.1 million in fiscal 2001, compared to
fiscal 2000. The increase was due primarily to productivity improvements from
cost reduction efforts, offset partially by reduced gross margins resulting from
pricing pressures. Operating income in fiscal 2001 was adversely affected by
approximately $3.2 million due to the foreign currency impact on our European
operations. Operating expenses at all operations are being strictly controlled
as management attempts to reduce operating costs to improve operating results in
the short-term, without adversely affecting our future long-term performance.
Operating income in our aerospace fasteners segment decreased by $5.0 million in
fiscal 2000, compared to fiscal 1999. Included in our fiscal 2000 and 1999
results are restructuring charges of $8.6 million and $5.5 million,
respectively, incurred due to the integration of Kaynar Technologies into our
Aerospace Fasteners business. Excluding restructuring charges, operating income
decreased by $2.0 million in fiscal 2000, compared to fiscal 1999, reflecting
reduced margins due to pricing pressures, offset partially by cost improvement
initiatives and acquisitions made during fiscal 1999. On a pro forma basis and
excluding restructuring charges, operating income decreased by $17.5 million in
fiscal 2000, compared to fiscal 1999, due to lower sales levels associated with
a weakened commercial aerospace industry and its negative effects on operating
effectiveness.

     Our Aerospace Fasteners segment has several manufacturing facilities
located in California. From time-to-time these operations have been affected by
an electric power shortage. We are cautiously optimistic that the electric power
shortage in California will be resolved without any major business interruption,
however, unless current tariffs are revised or their continued implementation
stayed, our manufacturing costs may be materially higher. We are pursuing both
long term and short term alternatives to our current electric power purchasing
commitments. We anticipate that the overall demand for aerospace fasteners in
fiscal 2002 will continue to improve as the announced increase in aircraft build
rates favorably affect the demand for our products. However, aircraft build
rates could be adversely affected by decreased worldwide demand for travel
following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks that temporarily halted
domestic and hampered worldwide travel. The heinous terrorists' attacks of
September 11, 2001, continue to have a significant effect on the commercial
aviation industry, raising concerns about our strong order backlog and projected
levels of new orders. A significant amount of cancellations of orders for
aircraft from Boeing and Airbus could adversely impact our future results. We
are monitoring events closely and any significant decline in future bookings
will cause us to implement further cost reduction measures to protect our
businesses.

   Aerospace Distribution Segment

     Sales in our aerospace distribution segment decreased by $15.1 million, or
14.9%, in fiscal 2001, compared to fiscal 2000. Results from fiscal 2000
included revenue of $21.7 million from Dallas Aerospace, prior to its
disposition. Sales in our aerospace distribution segment decreased by $67.3
million, or 40.0%, in fiscal 2000, compared to the fiscal 1999 period. The
decrease was due to the loss of revenues as a result of the disposition of
Solair and Dallas Aerospace. On a pro forma basis, sales increased $6.6 million,
or 8.3%, in 2001 compared to 2000, and $9.1 million, or 13.0%, in 2000 compared
to 1999, reflecting an overall improvement in demand for our products.

     Operating income in our aerospace distribution segment decreased by $5.3
million in 2001, compared to 2000. Operating income in 2001 included asset
impairment charges of $3.1 million due to the closing of Banner Aircraft
Services, which had operating losses of $3.9 million in 2001. The results for
2000, included operating income of $2.1 million from Dallas Aerospace, prior to
its disposition. Operating income increased by $47.8 million in 2000, compared
to 1999, which included a charge of $19.3 million due to the sale of Solair, and
a $22.1 million charge relating to Dallas Aerospace, which was sold in November
1999. A charge of $41.4 million is included in the 1999 results, in connection
with the disposition of Solair and the potential disposition of Dallas
Aerospace. On a pro forma basis and excluding impairment charges, operating
income was flat in 2001, as compared to 2000, and increased by $7.3 million in
2000, as compared to 1999, reflecting increases in margins and a reduction in
corporate overhead.

Demand for our aerospace products could be adversely affected by decreased
worldwide demand for travel following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks
that temporarily halted domestic and hampered worldwide travel.

Real Estate Operations Segment

     Our real estate operations segment owns and operates a shopping center
located in Farmingdale, New York. Included in operating income was rental
revenue of $7.0 million, $3.6 million and $0.4 million for 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Rental revenue was higher in the fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000
periods due to an increase in the amount of space leased to tenants. As of June
30, 2001, approximately 74% of the developed shopping center was leased.

     We reported an operating loss of $0.1 million for fiscal 2001 compared to
operating income of $1.0 million in fiscal 2000. We recorded a one-time charge
of $2.3 million to write-off improvements at our shopping center. The results of
2001 were also affected by an increase in administrative and depreciation
expenses as a result of the increase in rental revenue.

  Corporate Segment

      The corporate segment includes the Gas Springs division prior to its
disposition. The corporate segment reported a decrease in sales as a result of
the disposition of the Camloc Gas Springs division in September 1999. The
corporate segment reported that operating results improved by $1.4 million, or
7.1% in 2001, as compared to 2000. In fiscal 2000, operating results improved by
$25.4 million, or 56.6%, reducing operating losses from $44.9 million in 1999 to
$19.5 million in 2000. Results from fiscal 2001 and 2000 included $3.1 million
and $5.1 million, respectively, of gains recognized on the disposition of
non-core property. Results from fiscal 1999 included $23.6 million of one-time
costs associated primarily with the acquisition of Kaynar Technologies,
restructuring charges, and increased environmental, legal and travel expenses.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Total capitalization as of June 30, 2001 and 2000 amounted to $858.9
million and $884.4 million, respectively. The changes in capitalization included
an increase of $14.7 million in debt and a decrease of $40.3 million in equity.
The increase in debt reflected an $18.1 million net increase in borrowings with
our primary lenders, as a result of cash borrowed to support our operations. The
decrease in equity was due primarily to our reported net loss of $15.0 million,
and a $26.0 million decrease in cumulative other comprehensive income, which was
due primarily to $24.5 million in unfavorable foreign currency translation
adjustments.

     We maintain a portfolio of investments classified primarily as
available-for-sale securities, which had a fair market value of $10.9 million at
June 30, 2001. The market value of the investment portfolio decreased by $8.3
million in 2001 as a result of realized gains from the divestiture of
securities. There is risk associated with market fluctuations inherent in stock
investments, and because our portfolio is not diversified, large swings in its
value may occur.

     Net cash used for operating activities for fiscal 2001 was $39.5 million.
The primary use of cash for operating activities in fiscal 2001 was a $9.1
million increase in inventories, a $71.4 million decrease in accounts payable
and other accrued liabilities, and a $16.7 million increase in other current
assets, offset partially by a $5.5 million decrease in accounts receivable. Net
cash used for operating activities for fiscal 2000 was $67.1 million. The
primary use of cash for operating activities in fiscal 2000 was a $23.2 million
increase in inventories, a $12.0 million decrease in accounts payable, and a
$25.7 million increase in other current assets. Net cash provided by operating
activities for fiscal 1999 was $23.3 million. The primary source of cash for
operating activities in fiscal 1999 was an increase in accounts payable, accrued
liabilities and other long-term liabilities of $45.9 million, partially offset
by our net loss and non-cash adjustments of $16.8 million.

     Net cash provided from investing activities for fiscal 2001 was $4.1
million, and included $16.4 million in proceeds received from the dispositions
of investments, and $4.6 million in proceeds received from the disposition of
property, offset by capital expenditures of $16.4 million. Net cash provided
from investing activities for fiscal 2000 was $90.4 million, and included $108.8
million in proceeds received from the dispositions of Dallas Aerospace, our Gas
Springs division and our investment in Nacanco Paketleme, and $12.0 million in
proceeds received from the condemnation of property. This was slightly offset by
cash of $27.3 million used for capital expenditures and $27.7 million for real
estate investments. Net cash used for investing activities for fiscal 1999 was
$99.2 million, and included $274.4 million used for acquisitions, partially
offset by $189.4 million received from the liquidation of investments.

     Net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 2001 was $15.4 million,
and included a $14.7 million net issuance of additional debt used to fund
operations. Net cash used for financing activities in fiscal 2000 was $41.4
million. The primary use of cash for financing activities in fiscal 2000 was
$39.4 million used to reduce debt. Net cash provided by financing activities in
fiscal 1999 was $81.2 million. Cash provided by financing activities in fiscal
1999 included the issuance of additional debt of $483.2 million, offset
partially by $380.0 million of debt repayments, and $22.1 million of treasury
stock purchased. We increased our debt in fiscal 1999, as a result of the
acquisition of Kaynar Technologies.

     Our working capital requirement has increased in fiscal 2001, as our
aerospace fasteners segment engaged in a new inventory supply program with a
customer, requiring a significant investment in inventory. Under this program,
we must maintain a certain level of inventory to fulfill the customer's monthly
requirements. Sales under the program are expected to increase in the first
quarter of fiscal 2002.

     Our principal cash requirements include debt service, capital expenditures,
real estate development, and payment of other liabilities. Other liabilities
that require the use of cash include postretirement benefits, environmental
investigation and remediation obligations, and litigation settlements and
related costs. We expect that cash on hand, cash generated from operations, cash
available from borrowings and additional financing and asset sales will be
adequate to satisfy our cash requirements during the next twelve months.

     We are required under the credit agreement to comply with certain financial
and non-financial loan covenants, including maintaining certain interest and
fixed charge coverage ratios and maintaining certain indebtedness to EBITDA
ratios at the end of each fiscal quarter. Our most restrictive covenant is the
interest coverage ratio, which represents the ratio of EBITDA to interest
expense, as defined in the credit agreement. At June 30, 2001, the interest
coverage ratio was 2.05, which exceeded the minimum requirement of 2.0.
Additionally, the credit agreement restricts annual capital expenditures to $40
million during the life of the facility. Except for non-guarantor assets,
substantially all of our assets are pledged as collateral under the credit
agreement. The credit agreement restricts the payment of dividends to our
shareholders to an aggregate of the lesser of $0.01 per share or $0.4 million
over the life of the agreement. Noncompliance with any of the financial
covenants without cure or waiver would constitute an event of default under the
credit agreement. An event of default resulting from a breach of a financial
covenant may result, at the option of lenders holding a majority of the loans,
in an acceleration of the principal and interest outstanding, and a termination
of the revolving credit line. At June 30, 2001, we were in full compliance with
all the covenants under the credit agreement.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Accounting for Business Combinations."
This statement requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, and establishes specific
criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill. We
will follow the requirements of this statement for business acquisitions made
after June 30, 2001.

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Accounting for Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." This statement requires that goodwill and intangible assets
deemed to have an indefinite life not be amortized. Instead of amortizing
goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life, the statement
requires a test for impairment to be performed annually, or immediately if
conditions indicate that such an impairment could exist. The amortization period
of intangible assets with finite lives will no longer be limited to forty years.
This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001,
and permits early adoption for fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. We
will adopt SFAS No. 142 on July 1, 2001. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 142,
we will stop amortizing goodwill of approximately $12.5 million per year. Due to
the fair value measurement requirement, rather than the undiscounted cash flows
approach, we may have to record a material impairment from the implementation of
SFAS No. 142. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of adopting this
standard.

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations". This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and
associated asset retirement costs. It applies to legal obligations associated
with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition,
construction, development, and normal operation of a long-lived asset, except
for certain lease obligations. This statement is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. We are currently evaluating the impact of
adopting this standard.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

      In fiscal 1998, we entered into a ten-year interest rate swap agreement to
reduce our cash flow exposure to increases in interest rates on variable rate
debt. The ten-year interest rate swap agreement provides us with interest rate
protection on $100 million of variable rate debt, with interest being calculated
based on a fixed LIBOR rate of 6.24% to February 17, 2003. On February 17, 2003,
the bank, that we entered into the interest rate swap agreement, will have a
one-time option to elect to cancel the agreement or to do nothing and proceed
with the transaction, using a fixed LIBOR rate of 6.715% for the period February
17, 2003 to February 19, 2008.

     We did not elect to pursue hedge accounting for the interest rate swap
agreement, which was executed to provide an economic hedge against cash flow
variability on the floating rate note. When evaluating the impact of SFAS No.
133 on this hedge relationship, we assessed the key characteristics of the
interest rate swap agreement and the note. Based on this assessment, we
determined that the hedging relationship would not be highly effective. The
ineffectiveness is caused by the existence of the embedded written call option
in the interest rate swap agreement, and the absence of a mirror option in the
hedged item. As such, pursuant to SFAS No. 133, we designated the interest rate
swap agreement in the no hedging designation category. Accordingly, we have
recognized a non-cash decrease in fair market value of interest rate derivatives
of $5.6 million in fiscal 2001 as a result of the fair market value adjustment
for our interest rate swap agreement.

     The fair market value adjustment of these agreements will generally
fluctuate based on the implied forward interest rate curve for 3-month LIBOR. If
the implied forward interest rate curve decreases, the fair market value of the
interest hedge contract will increase and we will record an additional charge.
If the implied forward interest rate curve increases, the fair market value of
the interest hedge contract will decrease, and we will record income.

     In March 2000, the Company issued a floating rate note with a principal
amount of $30,750,000. Embedded within the promissory note agreement is an
interest rate cap. The embedded interest rate cap limits the 1-month LIBOR
interest rate that we must pay on the note to 8.125%. At execution of the
promissory note, the strike rate of the embedded interest rate cap of 8.125% was
above the 1-month LIBOR rate of 6.61%. Under SFAS 133, the embedded interest
rate cap is considered to be clearly and closely related to the debt of the host
contract and is not required to be separated and accounted for separately from
the host contract. In fiscal 2001, we accounted for the hybrid contract,
comprised of the variable rate note and the embedded interest rate cap, as a
single debt instrument.

     The table below provides information about our derivative financial
instruments and other financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in
interest rates, which include interest rate swaps. For interest rate swaps, the
table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by expected
(contractual) maturity dates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the
contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted average
variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve at the
reporting date.

                    Report of Independent Public Accountants

To The Fairchild Corporation:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The
Fairchild Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of June 30,
2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of earnings,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the three years in the period ended June
30, 2001. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of Nacanco Paketleme (see Note 6), an investment that was
sold in July 1999 and until then, was reflected in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements using the equity method of accounting. The investment in
Nacanco Paketleme represented 1 percent of total assets as of June 30, 1999, and
the equity in its net income represented 11 percent of earnings from continuing
operations for the year ended June 30, 1999. The statements of Nacanco Paketleme
were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our
opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Nacanco Paketleme, is
based on the report of other auditors.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

     In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the
consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of The Fairchild Corporation and
subsidiaries as of June 30, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30,
2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States.

     Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. Schedules I and II in Item 14 of Part IV
of the Form 10-K is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic financial statements.
These schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly state in all
material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                   THE FAIRCHILD CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                 (In thousands, except share and per share data)

 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     General: All references in the notes to the consolidated financial
statements to the terms "we," "our," "us," the "Company" and "Fairchild" refer
to The Fairchild Corporation and its subsidiaries.

     Corporate  Structure:  The Fairchild  Corporation  was  incorporated  in
October 1969,  under the laws of the State of Delaware.  Effective  April 8,
1999, we became the sole owner of Banner  Aerospace,  Inc. RHI Holdings,  Inc.
is our direct subsidiary.  RHI is the  owner  of 100%  of  Fairchild Holding
Corp.  Our  principal  operations  are  conducted  through Fairchild Holding
Corp. and Banner Aerospace.  During fiscal 1999 we held a significant equity
interest in Nacanco Paketleme. Our financial statements present the results of
our former Technologies segment as discontinued operations.

    Fiscal Year: Our fiscal year ends June 30. All references herein to "2001",
"2000", and "1999" mean the fiscal years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

     Consolidation Policy: The accompanying consolidated financial statements
are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States and include our accounts and all of the accounts of our
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. Investments in companies in which ownership
interests range from 20 to 50 percent are accounted for using the equity method
(see Note 6).

     Revenue Recognition: Sales and related costs are recognized upon shipment
of products and performance of services. Sales and related cost of sales on
long-term contracts are recognized as products are delivered and services
performed, as determined by the percentage of completion method. Lease and
rental revenue are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the
lease.

     Cash Equivalents/Statements of Cash Flows: For purposes of the Statements
of Cash Flows, we consider all highly liquid investments with original maturity
dates of three months or less as cash equivalents. Total net cash disbursements
(receipts) made by us for income taxes and interest were as follows:

                                            2001          2000         1999
                                        ----------------------------------------
 Interest                                    $50,471       $54,535      $29,200
 Income Taxes                                    388      (15,076)     (21,304)
</TABLE>

     Restricted Cash: On June 30, 2001 and 2000, we had restricted cash of
$1,184 and $14,287, respectively, all of which is maintained as collateral for
certain debt facilities. Cash investments are in short-term treasury bills and
certificates of deposit.

     Investments: Management determines the appropriate classification of our
investments at the time of acquisition and reevaluates such determination at
each balance sheet date. Trading securities are carried at fair value, with
unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings. Available-for-sale
securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses,
net of tax, reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity.
Investments in equity securities and limited partnerships that do not have
readily determinable fair values are stated at cost and are categorized as other
investments. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific
identification method based on the trade date of a transaction. Interest on
corporate obligations, as well as dividends on preferred stock, are accrued at
the balance sheet date.

     Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method at two of our domestic
aerospace fastener manufacturing operations, and using the first-in, first-out
("FIFO") method elsewhere. If the FIFO inventory valuation method had been used
exclusively, inventories would have been approximately $3,506 and $3,920 higher
at June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Inventories from continuing operations
are valued as follows:

     Properties and Depreciation: The cost of property, plant and equipment is
depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The cost of
leasehold improvements is depreciated over the lesser of the length of the
related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Our machinery and
equipment is depreciated over 10 years. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and accelerated
depreciation methods for Federal income tax purposes. Property, plant and
equipment consisted of the following:

     Net Assets Held for Sale: Net assets held for sale are stated at the lower
of cost or at estimated net realizable value, which considers anticipated sales
proceeds. Interest is not allocated to net assets held for sale. Net assets held
for sale at June 30, 2001, includes several parcels of real estate, located
primarily throughout the continental United States, which we plan to sell, lease
or develop, subject to the resolution of certain environmental matters and
market conditions. Also included in net assets held for sale is a limited
partnership interest in a landfill development partnership.

     Amortization of Goodwill: Goodwill, which represents the excess of the cost
of purchased businesses over the fair value of their net assets at dates of
acquisition, is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years. See the
discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements at the end of this note.

     Deferred Loan Costs: Deferred loan costs associated with various debt
issues are being amortized over the terms of the related debt, based on the
amount of outstanding debt, using the effective interest method. For 2001, 2000,
and 1999, amortization expense for these loan costs was $1,870, $1,338, and
$1,100, respectively.

     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: We review our long-lived assets for
impairment, including property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangibles
and goodwill, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine
recoverability of our long-lived assets we evaluate the probability that future
undiscounted net cash flows will be less than the carrying amount of our assets.
Impairment is measured based on the difference between the carrying amount of
our assets and their estimated fair value. An impairment charge of $5.9 million
was recorded in 2001. The impairment charge included $2.4 million due to the
closing of a small subsidiary at our aerospace distribution segment, of which
$1.7 million represented the write-off of goodwill, and $0.4 million represented
severance payments. The impairment charge also included a write-off of
approximately $2.3 million of improvements at our shopping center, and a $1.1
million for the write-off of leasehold improvements from the relocation of our
domestic distribution facility in our aerospace fasteners segment.

     Foreign Currency Translation: For foreign subsidiaries whose functional
currency is the local foreign currency, balance sheet accounts are translated at
exchange rates in effect at the end of the period, and income statement accounts
are translated at average exchange rates for the period. The resulting
translation gains and losses are included as a separate component of
stockholders' equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included
in other income and were insignificant in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999.

     Research and Development:  Company-sponsored  research and development
expenditures are expensed as incurred and were insignificant in fiscal 2001,
2000 and 1999.

     Capitalization of interest and taxes: We capitalize interest expense and
property taxes relating to certain real estate property being developed in
Farmingdale, New York. Capitalized interest is added to the cost of the
underlying assets and is amortized over the useful lives of the assets. Interest
of $386, $5,792 and $4,671 was capitalized in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     Nonrecurring Income: Nonrecurring income of $28,625 in 2000 resulted from
the disposition of two of our equity investments including Nacanco Paketleme,
and the disposition of our Camloc Gas Springs division.

     Stock-Based Compensation: As permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", we will continue
to use the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by APB Opinion
No. 25, for our stock-based employee compensation plans. The fair market
disclosures that are required by SFAS 123 are included in Note 12.

     Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The carrying amount reported in the
balance sheet approximates the fair value for our cash and cash equivalents,
investments, specified hedging agreements, short-term borrowings, current
maturities of long-term debt, and all other variable rate debt (including
borrowings under our credit agreements). The fair value for our other fixed rate
long-term debt is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on our
current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Fair values of our other off-balance-sheet instruments (letters of credit,
commitments to extend credit, and lease guarantees) are based on fees currently
charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining
terms of the agreements and the counter parties' credit standing. These
instruments are described in Note 7.

     Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

     Reclassifications:  Certain amounts in our prior years' financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation.

     Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2001, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 141, "Accounting for Business Combinations." This statement requires the
purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated
after June 30, 2001, and establishes specific criteria for the recognition of
intangible assets separately from goodwill. We will follow the requirements of
this statement for business acquisitions made after June 30, 2001.

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Accounting for Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." This statement requires that goodwill and intangible assets
deemed to have an indefinite life not be amortized. Instead of amortizing
goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life, the statement
requires a test for impairment to be performed annually, or immediately if
conditions indicate that such an impairment could exist. The amortization period
of intangible assets with finite lives will no longer be limited to forty years.
This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001,
and permits early adoption for fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. We
will adopt SFAS No. 142 on July 1, 2001. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 142,
we will stop amortizing goodwill of approximately $12.5 million per year. Due to
the fair value measurement requirement, rather than the undiscounted cash flows
approach, we may have to record a material impairment from the implementation of
SFAS No. 142. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of adopting this
standard.

     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations". This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and
associated asset retirement costs. It applies to legal obligations associated
with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition,
construction, development, and normal operation of a long-lived asset, except
for certain obligations of leases. This statement is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. We are currently evaluating the impact of
adopting this standard.

2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

 Acquisitions

     We have accounted for the following acquisitions by using the purchase
method. The respective purchase price is assigned to the net assets acquired,
based on the fair value of such assets and liabilities at the respective
acquisition dates.

     On June 18, 1999, we completed the acquisition of Technico S.A. for
approximately $4.1 million and assumed approximately $2.2 million of Technico's
existing debt. The total cost of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the
net assets of Technico by approximately $3.4 million, which is being allocated
as goodwill, and amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. The
acquisition was financed with additional borrowings from our credit facility.

     On April 20, 1999, we completed the acquisition of all the capital stock of
Kaynar Technologies, Inc. for approximately $222 million and assumed
approximately $103 million of existing debt, the majority of which was
refinanced at closing. In addition, we paid $28 million for a covenant not to
compete from Kaynar Technologies' largest preferred shareholder. The total cost
of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net assets of Kaynar
Technologies by approximately $282 million, which is being allocated as
goodwill, and amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. The
acquisition was financed with existing cash, the sale of $225 million of 10 3/4%
senior subordinated notes due 2009 and proceeds from a new bank credit facility.

     On February 22, 1999, we used available cash to acquire 77.3% of SNEP S.A.
By June 30, 1999, we had purchased significantly all of the remaining shares of
SNEP. The total amount paid was approximately $8.0 million, including $1.1
million of debt assumed in a business combination accounted for as a purchase.
The total cost of the acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net assets of
SNEP by approximately $4.3 million, which is being allocated as goodwill, and
amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. SNEP is a French
manufacturer of precision machined self-locking nuts and special threaded
fasteners serving the European industrial, aerospace and automotive markets.

    Divestitures

     On December 1, 1999, we disposed of substantially all of the assets and
certain liabilities of our Dallas Aerospace subsidiary, to United Technologies
Inc. for approximately $57.0 million. No gain or loss was recognized from this
transaction, as the proceeds received approximated the net carrying value of the
assets. Approximately $37.0 million of the proceeds from this disposition were
used to reduce our term indebtedness.

     On September 3, 1999, we completed the disposal of our Camloc Gas Springs
division to a subsidiary of Arvin Industries Inc. for approximately $2.7
million. In addition, we received $2.4 million from Arvin Industries for a
covenant not to compete. We recognized a $2.0 million nonrecurring gain from
this disposition. We used the net proceeds from the disposition to reduce our
indebtedness.

     On July 29, 1999, we sold our 31.9% interest in Nacanco Paketleme to
American National Can Group, Inc. for approximately $48.2 million. In fiscal
2000, we recognized a $25.7 million nonrecurring gain from this divestiture. We
also agreed to provide consulting services over a three-year period, at an
annual fee of approximately $1.5 million. We used the net proceeds from the
disposition to reduce our indebtedness.

     On December 31, 1998, Banner Aerospace consummated the sale of Solair,
Inc., its largest subsidiary in the rotables group, to Kellstrom Industries,
Inc., in exchange for approximately $60.4 million in cash and a warrant to
purchase 300,000 shares of common stock of Kellstrom. In December 1998, Banner
Aerospace recorded a $19.3 million pre-tax loss from the sale of Solair. This
loss was included in cost of goods sold, as it was attributable primarily to the
bulk sale of inventory at prices below the carrying amount of that inventory.

   Acquisition of Minority Interest in Consolidated Subsidiaries

     On April 8, 1999, we acquired the remaining 15% of the outstanding common
and preferred stock of Banner Aerospace, Inc. not already owned by us, through
the merger of Banner Aerospace with one of our subsidiaries. Under the terms of
the merger with Banner, we issued 2,981,412 shares of our Class A common stock
to acquire all of Banner Aerospace's common and preferred stock (other than
those already owned by us). Banner Aerospace is now our wholly-owned subsidiary.

3.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     Based on our formal plan, we have disposed of the Fairchild Technologies'
businesses, including its intellectual property, through a series of
transactions. Because of Fairchild Technologies' significant utilization of
cash, in February 1998, our Board of Directors adopted a formal plan to
discontinue Fairchild Technologies, under which, Fairchild Technologies would
either be sold or liquidated. In connection with the adoption of that plan, we
recorded an after-tax charge of $36.2 million in discontinued operations in
fiscal 1998. Included in the fiscal 1998 charge, was $28.2 million, net of an
income tax benefit of $11.8 million, for the net losses of Fairchild
Technologies through June 30, 1998. This charge included the write down of
assets to estimated net realizable value and $8.0 million, net of an income tax
benefit of $4.8 million, for the estimated remaining operating losses of
Fairchild Technologies through February 1999, the originally anticipated
disposal date. The dispositions of the Fairchild Technologies semiconductor
equipment group, the major portion of the Fairchild Technologies business, took
place by June 1999, approximately 15 months after the adoption of the
disposition plan. We also completed a spin-off of the Fairchild Technologies
optical disc equipment group business in April 2000, approximately 25 months
after the original disposition plan. We received proceeds from the dispositions
of Fairchild Technologies of less than we originally projected, and the
operating losses of Fairchild Technologies, since the adoption date, exceeded
our original estimates. At each quarter end, we continued to reevaluate our
conclusions on discontinued operations and update the estimates of losses as
circumstances changed. At no point did we consider retaining any portion of the
Fairchild Technology business. As a result, we adjusted the net loss on disposal
of discontinued operations by $31.3 million and $12.0 million in fiscal 1999 and
2000, respectively. The following schedule provides a summary of the net loss on
disposal of discontinued operations for Fairchild Technologies:

<FN>

(a)  The fiscal 1999 after-tax operating loss from Fairchild Technologies
     exceeded the June 1998 estimate recorded for expected losses by $28.6
     million, net of an income tax benefit of $8.1 million, through June 1999.
     Operating losses for fiscal 1999 of $8.0 million were originally planned
     for the first eight months of fiscal 1999. Operating costs were higher than
     originally projected, due to deterioration in market conditions, which
     resulted in increased operating expenses and hindered the disposition of
     Fairchild Technologies within twelve months, as originally expected. Due to
     the decision to cease operations of the Fairchild Technologies
     semiconductor group in March 1999, additional expenses became necessary to
     reflect the shut down of facilities and accrue for severance expenses. An
     additional after-tax charge of $2.8 million was recorded in fiscal 1999 for
     the estimated remaining losses in connection with the disposition of
     Fairchild Technologies.
(b)  The fiscal 2000 after-tax loss in connection with the disposition of the
     remaining operations of Fairchild Technologies exceeded anticipated losses
     by $12.0 million, net of tax. We recognized a higher than expected loss on
     the disposition of the final portions of Fairchild Technologies.
</FN>
</TABLE>

     At the measurement date in February 1998, management's reasonable
expectation was that Fairchild Technologies would be disposed of within one
year. Management felt confident that this could be accomplished for the
following reasons:

o     We retained an investment banker to aid in the disposal of the Fairchild
      Technologies business.
o     Our belief was further enhanced as active discussions began with
      approximately 20 potentially interested parties; and based on those
      discussions we believed that we could sell Fairchild Technologies within
      one year.
o     The expected quarterly losses, as accrued at the measurement date created
      an incentive to sell the Fairchild Technologies business in order to
      reduce cash outflows.

     However, our February 1998 expectations that we could sell Fairchild
Technologies within one year were severely hampered by a general slowdown in the
semiconductor manufacturing equipment industry, the economic crisis in Asia, and
public knowledge that the business was for sale. As a result of these
conditions, the major customer of Fairchild Technologies semiconductor equipment
group business refused to place additional firm orders and Fairchild
Technologies incurred net operating losses well in excess of the $8.0 million
originally planned. As a further result of these conditions, efforts to sell the
Fairchild Technologies business, as a whole, were unsuccessful. However, several
parties expressed interest in specific product lines and intellectual property
of Fairchild Technologies. Management realized that it would have to split-up
Fairchild Technologies and separately dispose of components of its semiconductor
equipment group and its optical disc equipment business. In February 1999,
disposition discussions began to intensify, and shortly thereafter letters of
intent were signed to sell portions of the Fairchild Technologies business.

     In March 1999, management decided to cease all manufacturing activities of
the semiconductor equipment group of Fairchild Technologies. In April 1999, we
began to dispose of the semiconductor equipment group's production machinery and
existing inventory, informed customers and business partners that it ceased
operations, significantly reduced its workforce, and stepped up the level of
discussions and negotiations with other companies regarding the sale of its
remaining assets. Fairchild Technologies also continued exploring several
alternative transactions with potential buyers for its optical disc equipment
group business.

     During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, we liquidated, through several
transactions, a significant portion of Fairchild Technologies, consisting mostly
of its semiconductor equipment group. On April 14, 1999, we disposed of
Fairchild Technologies' photoresist deep ultraviolet track equipment machines
and technology, spare parts and testing equipment to Apex Co., Ltd., in exchange
for 1,250,000 shares of Apex stock valued at approximately $5.1 million. On May
1, 1999, we sold Fairchild CDI for a nominal amount. On June 15, 1999, we
received from Suess Microtec AG $7.9 million and the right to receive 350,000
shares of Suess Microtec stock (or approximately $3.5 million) in exchange for
Fairchild Technologies' Falcon semiconductor equipment group product line and
certain intellectual property.

     In July 1999, we received approximately $7.1 million from Novellus in
exchange for Fairchild Technologies' Low-K dielectric product line and certain
intellectual property. This transaction finalized the liquidation of the
semiconductor equipment group of Fairchild Technologies.

     Following these transactions Fairchild Technologies completely ceased
operations. Under these circumstances, management believes that discontinued
operations treatment for accounting purposes continued to be appropriate
subsequent to March 1999.

     On April 13, 2000, we completed a spin-off to our stockholders of the
shares of Fairchild (Bermuda) Ltd. On April 14, 2000, Fairchild (Bermuda) sold
to Convac Technologies Ltd. the Optical Disc Equipment Group business formerly
owned by Fairchild Technologies. Subsequently, on April 14, 2000, Fairchild
(Bermuda), renamed Global Sources Ltd., completed an exchange of approximately
95% of its shares for 100% of the shares of Trade Media Holdings Limited, an
Asian based, business-to-business online and traditional marketplace services
provider. Immediately after the share exchange, our stockholders owned 1,183,081
shares of the 26,152,308 issued shares of Global Sources. Global Sources shares
are listed on the NASDAQ under the symbol "GSOL". This transaction allowed us to
complete our formal plan to dispose of Fairchild Technologies and provided our
shareholders with a unique opportunity to participate in a new public entity.

     Fairchild Technologies reported sales of $8,087 and $21,900 in 2000 and
1999, respectively.

4.   PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

     The following table sets forth the derivation of the unaudited pro forma
results, representing the impact of our acquisition of Kaynar Technologies
(completed in April 1999), our merger with Banner Aerospace (completed in April
1999), and our dispositions of Dallas Aerospace (December 1999), Camloc Gas
Springs (September 1999), Solair (December 1998), and the investment in Nacanco
Paketleme (July 1999), as if these transactions had occurred at the beginning of
each period presented. The pro forma information is based on the historical
financial statements of these companies, giving effect to the aforementioned
transactions. In preparing the pro forma data, certain assumptions and
adjustments have been made which affect interest expense and investment income
from our revised debt structures and reduce minority interest from our merger
with Banner Aerospace. The pro forma financial information does not reflect
nonrecurring income and gains from the disposal of discontinued operations that
have occurred from these transactions. The unaudited pro forma information is
not intended to be indicative of the future results of our operations or results
that might have been achieved if these transactions had been in effect since the
beginning of these fiscal periods.

</TABLE>

     Credit Agreements

     We maintain credit facilities with a consortium of banks, providing us with
a term loan and revolving credit facilities. On June 30, 2001, the credit
facilities with our senior lenders consisted of a $143,691 term loan and a
$100,000 revolving loan with a $40,000 letter of credit sub-facility and a
$15,000 swing loan sub-facility. Borrowings under the term loan generally bear
interest at a rate of, at our option, either 2% over the Citibank N.A. base
rate, or 3% over the Eurodollar rate, and is subject to change quarterly based
upon our financial performance. Advances made under the revolving credit
facilities generally bear interest at a rate of, at our option, either (i) 1
1/2% over the Citibank N.A. base rate, or (ii) 2 1/2% over the Eurodollar rate,
and is subject to change quarterly based upon our financial performance. The
credit facilities are subject to a non-use commitment fee on the aggregate
unused availability, of 1/2% if greater than half of the revolving loan is being
utilized or 3/4% if less than half of the revolving loan is being utilized.
Outstanding letters of credit are subject to fees equivalent to the Eurodollar
margin rate. The revolving credit facilities and the term loan will mature on
April 30, 2005 and April 30, 2006, respectively. The term loan is subject to
mandatory prepayment requirements and optional prepayments. The revolving loan
is subject to mandatory prepayment requirements and optional commitment
reductions.

     We are required under the credit agreement to comply with certain financial
and non-financial loan covenants, including maintaining certain interest and
fixed charge coverage ratios and maintaining certain indebtedness to EBITDA
ratios at the end of each fiscal quarter. Our most restrictive covenant is the
interest coverage ratio, which represents the ratio of EBITDA to interest
expense, as defined in the credit agreement. At June 30, 2001, the interest
coverage ratio was 2.05, which exceeded the minimum requirement of 2.0.
Additionally, the credit agreement restricts annual capital expenditures to $40
million during the life of the facility. Except for non-guarantor assets,
substantially all of our assets are pledged as collateral under the credit
agreement. The credit agreement restricts the payment of dividends to our
shareholders to an aggregate of the lesser of $0.01 per share or $0.4 million
over the life of the agreement. Noncompliance with any of the financial
covenants without cure or waiver would constitute an event of default under the
credit agreement. An event of default resulting from a breach of a financial
covenant may result, at the option of lenders holding a majority of the loans,
in an acceleration of the principal and interest outstanding, and a termination
of the revolving credit line. At June 30, 2001, we were in full compliance with
all the covenants under the credit agreement.

     At June 30, 2001, we had borrowings outstanding of $64,600 under the
revolving credit facilities and we had letters of credit outstanding of $15,492,
which were supported by a sub-facility under the revolving credit facilities. At
June 30, 2001, we had unused bank lines of credit aggregating $19,908, at
interest rates slightly higher than the prime rate. We also had short-term lines
of credit relating to foreign operations, aggregating $18,384, against which we
owed $10,679 at June 30, 2001.

     On March 23, 2000, we entered into a $30,750 term loan agreement with
Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York. The loan is secured by all of the
developed rental property of the Fairchild Airport Plaza shopping center located
in Farmingdale, New York, including tenant leases and mortgage escrows.
Borrowings under this agreement will mature on April 1, 2003, and bear interest
at the rate of LIBOR plus 3.1%.

     Senior Subordinated Notes

     On April 20, 1999, we issued, at par value, $225,000 of 10 3/4% senior
subordinated notes that mature on April 15, 2009. We pay interest on these notes
semi-annually on April 15th and October 15th of each year. Except in the case of
certain equity offerings by us, we cannot choose to redeem these notes until
five years have passed from the issue date of the notes. At any one or more
times after that date, we may choose to redeem some or all of the notes at
certain specified prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Upon the occurrence
of certain change of control events, each holder may require us to repurchase
all or a portion of the notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued
and unpaid interest.

     The notes are our senior subordinated unsecured obligations. They rank
senior to or equal in right of payment with any of our future subordinated
indebtedness, and subordinated in right of payment to any of our existing and
future senior indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to
indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, which are not
guarantors. Substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries guarantee the notes
with unconditional guaranties of payment that will effectively rank below their
senior debt, but will rank equal to their other subordinated debt, in right of
payment.

     The indenture under which the notes were issued contains covenants that
limit what we (and most or all of our subsidiaries) may do. The indenture
contains covenants that limit our ability to: incur additional indebtedness; pay
dividends on, redeem or repurchase our capital stock; make investments; sell
assets; create certain liens; engage in certain transactions with affiliates;
and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets or the
assets of certain of our subsidiaries. In addition, we will be obligated to
offer to repurchase the notes at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, in the event of certain
asset sales. These restrictions and prohibitions are subject to a number of
important qualifications and exceptions.

     Debt Maturity Information

     The annual maturity of our bank notes payable and long-term debt
obligations (exclusive of capital lease obligations) for each of the five years
following June 30, 2001, are as follows: $26,139 for 2002, $34,485 for 2003,
$3,065 for 2004, $44,743 for 2005 and $2,626 for 2006.

8.  DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

     In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133
establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities
and supersedes and amends a number of existing accounting standards. It requires
that all derivatives be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance
sheet and measured at fair value. The corresponding derivative gains or losses
are reported based on the hedge relationship that exists, if any. Changes in the
fair value of derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges or that
do not meet the hedge accounting criteria in SFAS 133, are required to be
reported in earnings. Most of the general qualifying criteria for hedge
accounting under SFAS 133 were derived from, and are similar to, the existing
qualifying criteria in SFAS 80 "Accounting for Futures Contracts." SFAS 133
describes three primary types of hedge relationships: fair value hedge, cash
flow hedge, and foreign currency hedge. In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 to defer the required effective date
of implementing SFAS 133 from fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999 to
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

      In fiscal 1998, we entered into a ten-year interest rate swap agreement to
reduce our cash flow exposure to increases in interest rates on variable rate
debt. The ten-year interest rate swap agreement provides us with interest rate
protection on $100 million of variable rate debt, with interest being calculated
based on a fixed LIBOR rate of 6.24% to February 17, 2003. On February 17, 2003,
the bank that we entered into the interest swap agreement, will have a one-time
option to elect to cancel the agreement or to do nothing and proceed with the
transaction, using a fixed LIBOR rate of 6.715% for the period February 17, 2003
to February 19, 2008.

     We adopted SFAS 133 on July 1, 2000. At adoption, we recorded within other
comprehensive income, a decrease of $0.5 million in the fair market value of our
$100 million interest rate swap agreement. The $0.5 million decrease will be
amortized over the remaining life of the interest rate swap agreement using the
effective interest method. The offsetting interest rate swap liability is
separately being reported as a "fair market value of interest rate contract"
within other long-term liabilities. In the statement of earnings, we have
recorded the net swap interest accrual as part of interest expense. Unrealized
changes in the fair value of the swap are recorded net of the current interest
accrual on a separate line entitled "decrease in fair market value of interest
rate derivatives."

     We did not elect to pursue hedge accounting for the interest rate swap
agreement, which was executed to provide an economic hedge against cash flow
variability on the floating rate note. When evaluating the impact of SFAS No.
133 on this hedge relationship, we assessed the key characteristics of the
interest rate swap agreement and the note. Based on this assessment, we
determined that the hedging relationship would not be highly effective. The
ineffectiveness is caused by the existence of the embedded written call option
in the interest rate swap agreement, and the absence of a mirror option in the
hedged item. As such, pursuant to SFAS No. 133, we designated the interest rate
swap agreement in the no hedging designation category. Accordingly, we have
recognized a non-cash decrease in fair market value of interest rate derivatives
of $5.6 million in 2001, as a result of the fair market value adjustment for our
interest rate swap agreement.

     The fair market value adjustment of these agreements will generally
fluctuate based on the implied forward interest rate curve for the 3-month
LIBOR. If the implied forward interest rate curve decreases, the fair market
value of the interest hedge contract will increase and we will record an
additional charge. If the implied forward interest rate curve increases, the
fair market value of the interest hedge contract will decrease, and we will
record income.

     In March 2000, the Company issued a floating rate note with a principal
amount of $30,750,000. Embedded within the promissory note agreement is an
interest rate cap. The embedded interest rate cap limits the 1-month LIBOR
interest rate that we must pay on the note to 8.125%. At execution of the
promissory note, the strike rate of the embedded interest rate cap of 8.125% was
above the 1-month LIBOR rate of 6.61%. Under SFAS 133, the embedded interest
rate cap is considered to be clearly and closely related to the debt of the host
contract and is not required to be separated and accounted for separately from
the host contract. In fiscal 2001, we accounted for the hybrid contract,
comprised of the variable rate note and the embedded interest rate cap, as a
single debt instrument.

     We recognize interest expense under the provisions of the hedge agreements
based on the fixed rate. We are exposed to credit loss in the event of
non-performance by the lenders; however, such non-performance is not
anticipated.

     The table below provides information about our derivative financial
instruments and other financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in
interest rates, which include interest rate swaps. For interest rate swaps, the
table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by expected
(contractual) maturity dates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the
contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted average
variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve at the
reporting date.

9. PENSIONS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

     Pensions

     We have defined benefit pension plans covering most of our employees.
Employees in our foreign subsidiaries may participate in local pension plans,
for which our liability is in the aggregate insignificant. Our funding policy is
to make the minimum annual contribution required by the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 or local statutory law.

     The changes in the pension plans' benefit obligations were as follows:

     Postretirement Health Care Benefits

     We provide health care benefits for most of our retired employees.
Postretirement health care benefit expense from continuing operations totaled
$1,262, $1,065, and $951 for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Our accrual was
approximately $31,302 and $32,345 as of June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively,
for postretirement health care benefits related to discontinued operations. This
represents the cumulative discounted value of the long-term obligation and

     In fiscal 1998, we amended a former subsidiary's medical plan to increase
the retirees' contribution rate to approximately 20% of the negotiated premium.
Such plan amendment resulted in a $1,003 decrease to the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation and is being amortized as an unrecognized
prior service credit over the average future lifetime of the respective
retirees.

     The accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was determined using a
discount rate of 7.25% at June 30, 2001 and 8.0% at June 30, 2000. The effect of
such change resulted in an increase to the accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation in fiscal 2001. For measurement purposes, a 6.0% annual rate of
increase in the per capita claims cost of covered health care benefits was
assumed for fiscal 2001. The rate was assumed to decrease to 5.50% in fiscal
2002 and 5.00% for fiscal 2003 and remain at that level thereafter.

     A summary of the components of total postretirement expense is as follows:

</TABLE>

     We maintain a very complex structure in the United States and overseas,
particularly due to the large number of acquisitions and dispositions that have
occurred along with other tax planning strategies. Our management performs a
comprehensive review of its worldwide tax positions on an annual basis. Based on
positive outcomes in recent years as a result of discussions and resolutions of
matters with the tax authorities and the closure of tax years subject to tax
audit, management has reversed tax accruals, no longer needed, of $3,500,
$7,800, and $1,790 in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

     Domestic income taxes, less available credits, are provided on the
unremitted income of foreign subsidiaries and affiliated companies, to the
extent we intend to repatriate such earnings. No domestic income taxes or
foreign withholding taxes are provided on the undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries and affiliates, which are considered permanently invested, or which
would be offset by allowable foreign tax credits. At June 30, 2001, the amount
of domestic taxes payable upon distribution of such earnings was not
significant.

     In the opinion of our management, adequate provision has been made for all
income taxes and interest; and any liability that may arise for prior periods
will not have a material effect on our financial condition or our results of
operations.

11.  EQUITY SECURITIES

     We had 22,527,801 shares of Class A common stock and 2,621,502 shares of
Class B common stock outstanding at June 30, 2001. Class A common stock is
listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol of "FA". There is
no public market for the Class B common stock. The shares of Class A common
stock are entitled to one vote per share and cannot be exchanged for shares of
Class B common stock. The shares of Class B common stock are entitled to ten
votes per share and can be exchanged, at any time, for shares of Class A common
stock on a share-for-share basis. For the year ended June 30, 2001, 82,966 and
14,963 shares of Class A common stock were issued as a result of the exercise of
stock options and the Special-T restricted stock plan, respectively, and
shareholders converted 150 shares of Class B common stock into Class A common
stock.

     During fiscal 2001, we issued 132,394 deferred compensation units pursuant
to our stock option deferral plan, as a result of the exercise of 291,050 stock
options. Each deferred compensation unit is represented by one share of our
treasury stock and is convertible into one share of our Class A common stock
after a specified period of time.

12.    STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

     Stock Options

     We are authorized to issue 5,141,000 shares of our Class A common stock,
upon the exercise of stock options issued under our 1986 non-qualified and
incentive stock option plan. The purpose of the 1986 stock option plan is to
encourage continued employment and ownership of Class A common stock by our
officers and key employees, and to provide additional incentive to promote
success. The 1986 stock option plan authorizes the granting of options at not
less than the market value of the common stock at the time of the grant. The
option price is payable in cash or, with the approval of our compensation and
stock option committee of the Board of Directors, in "mature" shares of common
stock, valued at fair market value at the time of exercise. The options normally
terminate five years from the date of grant, or for a stipulated period of time
after an employee's death or termination of employment. The 1986 plan expires on
April 9, 2006; however, all stock options outstanding as of April 9, 2006 shall
continue to be exercisable pursuant to their terms.

     We are authorized to issue 250,000 shares of our Class A common stock upon
the exercise of stock options issued under the ten-year 1996 non-employee
directors stock option plan. The 1996 non-employee directors stock option plan
authorizes the granting of options at the market value of the common stock on
the date of grant. An initial stock option grant for 30,000 shares of Class A
common stock is made to each person who becomes a new non-employee Director,
with the options vesting 25% each year from the date of grant. On the date of
each annual meeting, each person elected as a non-employee Director will be
granted an option for 1,000 shares of Class A common stock that vest
immediately. The exercise price is payable in cash or, with the approval of our
compensation and stock option committee, in shares of Class A or Class B common
stock, valued at fair market value at the date of exercise. All options issued
under the 1996 non-employee directors stock option plan will terminate five
years from the date of grant or a stipulated period of time after a non-employee
Director ceases to be a member of the Board. The 1996 non-employee directors
stock option plan is designed to maintain our ability to attract and retain
highly qualified and competent persons to serve as our outside directors.

     At the Annual Shareholders meeting held in November 2000, the shareholders
approved the 2000 non-employee directors stock option plan, pursuant to which
each non-employee director was issued stock options for 7,500 shares (52,500
shares in the aggregate) immediately after the 2000 Annual Meeting.

     Upon our April 8, 1999 merger with Banner Aerospace, all of Banner
Aerospace's stock options then issued and outstanding were converted into the
right to receive 870,315 shares of our common stock.

     A summary of stock option transactions under our stock option plans is
presented in the following tables:

2000 and 1999 was $3.13, $4.16, and $6.48, respectively. The fair value of each

     We recognized compensation expense of $13 from stock options issued to a
consultant in 2001. We are applying APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for our
stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for
the granting of stock options to our employees in 2001, 2000 or 1999. If stock
options granted in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were accounted for based on their fair
value as determined under SFAS 123, pro forma earnings would be as follows:

     The pro forma effects of applying SFAS 123 are not representative of the
effects on reported net earnings for future years. The effect of SFAS 123 is not

future years.

     Stock Option Deferral Plan

     On November 17, 1998, our shareholders approved a stock option deferral
plan. Pursuant to the stock option deferral plan, certain officers may, at their
election, defer payment of the "compensation" they receive in a particular year
or years from the exercise of stock options. "Compensation" means the excess
value of a stock option, determined by the difference between the fair market
value of shares issueable upon exercise of a stock option, and the option price
payable upon exercise of the stock option. An officer's deferred compensation is
payable in the form of "deferred compensation units," representing the number of
shares of common stock that the officer is entitled to receive upon expiration
of the deferral period. The number of deferred compensation units issueable to
an officer is determined by dividing the amount of the deferred compensation by
the fair market value of our stock as of the date of deferral.

     Stock Warrants

     Effective as of February 21, 1997, we approved the continuation of an
existing warrant to Stinbes Limited (an affiliate of Jeffrey Steiner) to
purchase 375,000 shares of our Class A or Class B common stock at $7.80 per
share. The warrant has been modified to permit exercise within certain window
periods including, within two years after the merger of Shared Technologies
Fairchild Inc. with certain companies. The payment of the warrant price may be
made in cash or in "mature" shares of our Class A or Class B common stock,
valued at fair market value at the time of exercise, or combination thereof. The
warrant expires on March 13, 2002.

     During fiscal 2001, we issued warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of Class A
common stock, at $9.34 per share, to a non-employee for services provided. The
warrants issued are immediately exercisable and will expire on November 8, 2001.
We recorded expense of $13 from the issuance of these warrants.

     On November 9, 1995, we issued warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of Class
A Common Stock, at $9.00 per share, to Peregrine Direct Investments Limited, in
exchange for a standby commitment it received on November 8, 1995, from
Peregrine. We elected not to exercise our rights under the Peregrine commitment.
On February 23, 2000, we issued 63,300 restricted shares of Class A common stock
as a result of a cashless exercise of 250,000 of these warrants. The remaining
250,000 of warrants expired on November 8, 2000.

</TABLE>

     The computation of diluted loss from continuing operations per share for
2001 and 1999 excluded the effect of incremental common shares attributable to
the potential exercise of common stock options outstanding and warrants
outstanding, because their effect was antidilutive. No adjustments were made to
share information in the calculation of earnings per share for discontinued
operations and extraordinary items in 2000 and 1999.

14.  RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

     In fiscal 1999, we recorded $6,374 of restructuring charges. Of this
amount, $500 was recorded at our corporate office for severance benefits and
$348 was recorded at our aerospace distribution segment for the write-off of
building improvements from premises vacated. The remaining, $5,526 was recorded
as a result of the Kaynar Technologies initial integration in our aerospace
fasteners segment, i.e. $3,932 for severance benefits, $1,334 for product
integration costs incurred as of June 30, 1999, and $260 for the write down of
fixed assets. In fiscal 2000, we recorded $8,578 of restructuring charges as a
result of the continued integration of Kaynar Technologies into our aerospace
fasteners segment. All of the charges recorded during 2000 were a direct result
of product and plant integration costs incurred as of June 30, 2000. These costs
were classified as restructuring and were the direct result of formal plans to
move equipment, close plants and to terminate employees. Such costs are
nonrecurring in nature. Other than a reduction in our existing cost structure,
none of the restructuring charges resulted in future increases in earnings or
represented an accrual of future costs.

15.   EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS

     In fiscal 1999, we recognized an extraordinary loss of $4,153, net of tax,
to write-off the remaining deferred loan fees associated with the early
extinguishment of indebtedness in connection with our refinanced credit
facilities.

16.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     We pay for a chartered helicopter used from time to time for business
related travel. The owner of the chartered helicopter is a company controlled by
Mr. Jeffrey Steiner. Cost for such flights that are charged to us are comparable
to those charged in arm's length transactions between unaffiliated third
parties.

     We have extended loans to purchase our Class A common stock to certain
members of our senior  management and Board of Directors,  for the purpose of
encouraging ownership of our stock, and to provide additional incentive to
promote our success.  The loans are non-interest bearing, have maturity dates
ranging from 21/2to 41/2years, and become due and payable immediately upon the
termination of employment for senior management, or director affiliation with us
for a director.  As of June 30, 2001, the indebtedness owed to us from Mr.
Flynn, Mr. Juris, Mr.  Persavich,  and Mr. J. Steiner, was approximately  $175
each. On June 30, 2001, Mr. Gerard,  Ms. Hercot,  Mr. Kelley, Mr. Miller and Mr.
E. Steiner owed us approximately $99, $167, $50, $220 and $220, respectively.
On June 30, 2001,  approximately $106 of indebtedness was owed to us by each of
Mr. Caplin, Mr. David, Mr. Harris, Mr. Lebard, and Mr. Richey.  As of June 30,
2001, each of the individual amounts due to us represented the largest aggregate
balance of indebtedness  outstanding under the officer and director stock
purchase program. We recognized  compensation expense of $22 and $443 in 2001
and 2000, respectively, as a result of favorable terms granted to the recipients
of the loans.

     On November 16, 1999, Mr. Richey borrowed $46 from us to exercise stock
options and hold our Class A common stock. The loan matures on November 16, 2001
and bears interest at 5.5%.

     On June 30, 2000, Mr. J. Stenier had non-interest bearing indebtedness owed
to us of $200.  During fiscal 2001, the loan was repaid.

     In 1998, we made loans in the aggregate amount of $300 to Mr. Sharpe in
order to assist him in relocating from California to Virginia. On October 1,
1998, $95 was repaid. During fiscal 2001 the balance due and accrued interest
was paid in full.

17.  LEASES

     Operating Leases

     We hold certain of our facilities and equipment under long-term leases. The
minimum rental commitments under non-cancelable operating leases with lease

are as follows: $8,061 for 2002, $6,939 for 2003, $5,571 for 2004, $4,304 for
2005, and $2,576 for 2006. Rental expense on operating leases from continuing
operations for fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999 was $12,445, $11,280 and $9,485,
respectively.

     Capital Leases

     Minimum commitments under capital leases for each of the five years
following June 30, 2001, are $428 for 2002, $233 for 2003, $43 for 2004, $0 for
2005, and $0 for 2006, respectively. At June 30, 2001, the present value of

     Leasing Operations

     In fiscal 1999, we began leasing retail space to tenants under operating
leases at completed sections of a shopping center we are developing in
Farmingdale, New York. Rental revenue is recognized as lease payments are due
from tenants, and the related costs are amortized over their estimated useful
life. The future minimum lease payments to be received from non-cancelable
operating leases on June 30, 2001 were $5,434 in 2002, $5,434 in 2003, $5,434 in
2004, $5,363 in 2005, $5,303 in 2006, and $41,654 thereafter. Rental property
under operating leases consists of the following as of June 30, 2001:

18.      CONTINGENCIES

     Environmental Matters

     Our operations are subject to stringent government imposed environmental
laws and regulations concerning, among other things, the discharge of materials
into the environment and the generation, handling, storage, transportation and
disposal of waste and hazardous materials. To date, such laws and regulations
have not had a material effect on our financial condition, results of
operations, or net cash flows, although we have expended, and can be expected to
expend in the future, significant amounts for the investigation of environmental
conditions and installation of environmental control facilities, remediation of
environmental conditions and other similar matters, particularly in our
aerospace fasteners segment.

     In connection with our plans to dispose of certain real estate, we must
investigate environmental conditions and we may be required to take certain
corrective action prior or pursuant to any such disposition. In addition, we
have identified several areas of potential contamination related to other
facilities owned, or previously owned, by us, that may require us either to take
corrective action or to contribute to a clean-up. We are also a defendant in
certain lawsuits and proceedings seeking to require us to pay for investigation
or remediation of environmental matters and we have been alleged to be a
potentially responsible party at various "superfund" sites. We believe that we
have recorded adequate reserves in our financial statements to complete such
investigation and take any necessary corrective actions or make any necessary
contributions. No amounts have been recorded as due from third parties,
including insurers, or set off against, any environmental liability, unless such
parties are contractually obligated to contribute and are not disputing such
liability.

     As of June 30, 2001, the consolidated total of our recorded liabilities for
environmental matters was approximately $14.2 million, which represented the
estimated probable exposure for these matters. It is reasonably possible that
our total exposure for these matters could be approximately $18.4 million.

     Other Matters

     AlliedSignal (now Honeywell International) had asserted indemnification
claims against us in an aggregate amount of $38.8 million, arising from the
disposition of Banner Aerospace's hardware business to AlliedSignal. We claimed
that AlliedSignal owed us approximately $6.8 million. In October 2000, we
reached an agreement with AlliedSignal to settle these claims and as a result of
the settlement no cash changed hands.

     We are involved in various other claims and lawsuits incidental to our
business. We, either on our own or through our insurance carriers, are
contesting these matters. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution
of the legal proceedings, including those mentioned above, will not have a
material adverse effect on our financial condition, future results of operations
or net cash flows.

19.  BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

     We report in three principal business segments. The aerospace fasteners
segment includes the manufacture of high performance specialty fasteners and
fastening systems. The aerospace distribution segment distributes a wide range
of aircraft parts and related support services to the aerospace industry. The
real estate segment leases space to tenants at completed sections of a shopping
center we are developing in Farmingdale, New York. The corporate segment
includes the Gas Springs division prior to its disposition and corporate
activities. Our financial data by business segment is as follows:
