MINUTEMAN INTERNATIONAL, INC.
1998 ANNUAL REPORT




MISSION STATEMENT.
A COMMITMENT TO OUR CUSTOMERS.
The core of Minuteman International is anchored by a single, straightforward
vision -- to deliver exceptional floor cleaning equipment and chemicals combined
with a single-minded focus to anticipate and answer our customers' needs.
Answering those needs is just the beginning of a performance-driven philosophy
to help our distributors maximize profit and to provide outstanding service,
products and training to each Minuteman customer. That philosophy is combined
with the ongoing development of new and more cost effective methods of
manufacturing and product design to keep our customers on the leading edge of
floor care technology into the next century.



Minutemen International, headquartered in the Chicago suburb of Addison,
Illinois, is a full-line manufacturer of commercial and industrial vacuums and
floor and carpet care equipment, Multi-Clean brand chemical cleaning and coating
products, litter pick-up machines, and lawn sweeping equipment under the
Minuteman Parker label, and rider-operated floor surface maintenance equipment
under PowerBoss.



18-YEAR SUMMARY NET SALES
Exceptional, high quality products with a broad and deep line, long-held stable
relationships, focused marketing and aggressive promotions, distributor loyalty,
unequaled customer service, state-of-art technology and visionary management,
continue to drive Minuteman International sales to unprecedented levels.



STAR OF THE ISSA SHOW
MULTI-CLEAN'S UV-20 A SHOW-STOPPER
A Revolutionary Ultra Violet Single Floor Coat System for Tile, Wood and
Concrete. Introduced at the ISSA Show, Multi-Clean's revolutionary,
one-of-a-kind UV-20, Ultra Violet Curing Unit was the "talk of the show".
Representing the first time this unique technology has been introduced to the
floor cleaning industry outside of a controlled factory environment, the UV-20
ultra violet chemical is easily laid down and cured instantly with a special
floor machine designed by Minuteman engineers. This new concept far surpasses
the performance of conventional floor care products. Consider that the Ultra
Floor Coating System is delivered by Multi-Clean's unique UV-20 curing machine
which covers a wide 20" curing path and instantly polymerizes a blend of resins
by exposure to an ultra violet light located under the frame of the UV-20
machine. The UV-20 curing machine dries and completely cures the coating system
in a fraction of a second, instantly making the floor ready for traffic. This
unique one coat, low maintenance system delivers a long time wet-look appearance
and dramatically reduces maintenance costs.

MINUTEMAN FACTS...MINUTEMAN IS ONE OF THE LARGEST FLOOR CLEANING MANUFACTURERS
IN THE WORLD.





FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Shareholders:
New dimensions might be a fitting characterization for 1998, our 18th year of
offering front-running products to users of commercial and industrial floor,
carpet and lawn-care equipment.
-       Our sales and our profits each reached record levels,
-       Purchase of the PowerBoss line of industrial floor-care equipment gave
Minuteman an immediate and prominent presence in the realm of larger machines,
-       Multi-Clean's ultra violet system, ready to debut in June, may be the 
most revolutionary advance in floor-cleaning chemicals in the past 15 years, and
-       Our new warehouse in the Netherlands has greatly increased our access to
more customers in both Western and Eastern Europe.

Sales for the year rose 5.9%; PowerBoss, purchased in late November, contributed
only about one month of revenue to 1998's total. Our cost of sales was
proportionately less, causing our gross profit margin for the year to increase.
Our operating profit margin and net profit margin also expanded despite some
expenses connected with the acquisition, producing a 17.0% growth in net income.

Demand for our products was strong worldwide, with the exception of Asia, but
the order flow was particularly robust from our dealers in North America. New
product introductions are the leading stimulant to sales because customers
welcome dealers with something different to demonstrate and because this
innovative equipment answers previously unfilled needs. This is why our
participation in the International Sanitary Supply Association's trade show in
October received the best response I can remember.

The dealers were very excited about a 38" riding floor scrubber, our widest
model ever, and a new floor-finishing machine, developed by our Multi-Clean
cleaning chemicals division, that uses ultra violet light for instant drying by
curing the chemicals immediately following application. The earlier introduction
of a battery-operated burnisher and a new line of propane burnishers also
contributed importantly to 1998's sales increase. Our traditional products were
supported by a variety of promotional activities that are gradually winning
greater market share for our complete line.

The biggest news on the subject of products, however, was our November 23rd
acquisition of AAR PowerBoss Corp. of Aberdeen, NC. This extends our line of
floor-care equipment into larger machines for industrial floor care, where
PowerBoss, with $22 million in annual revenues, has been one of the dominant
participants; its products are sold in more than 30 countries. PowerBoss's
rider-operated industrial floor/surface maintenance equipment differs from
Minuteman's machines, which are largely walk-behind commercial units.

Because PowerBoss aims at different markets with different equipment, there is
virtually no overlap that otherwise could create redundancies. On the contrary,
certain efficiencies in purchasing and other areas should benefit our margins of
profit.

Greater profitability was another highlight of the year, with gross margins
increasing to 32.0% from 30.8% for 1997. Some of this improvement is
attributable to the full-year benefit of selective price increases that went
into effect in late 1997, but the bulk of it reflects cost-containment measures
instituted a couple of years ago, leveraged further by the higher volume.
Operating margins also rose, 

<PAGE>   3

to 8.9% from 8.0% a year ago, with only small gains in selling, general and
administrative expenditures.

Despite our resolve to monitor spending carefully, we have never feared
committing funds to worthwhile projects, such as the sales recruitment and
training expenditures to realign Multi-Clean's marketing efforts over the past
couple of years. It is particularly satisfying to us and rewarding to you when
our judgement is confirmed by such excellent operating results as we achieved in
1998.

On the international front, our centralized distribution center in the
Netherlands, opened in early 1998, has greatly enhanced our performance in
Europe and given us a definite advantage with dealers on the continent, who are
now relying on us to a far greater extent than ever before. The Pacific Rim is
weak, with economies and currencies there continuing under pressure. But we
remain firmly committed to this region as an area of potentially explosive
growth for us because the customers we serve keep on building facilities in
Asia.

Even after we spent approximately $12 million on the PowerBoss purchase, our
strong financial condition is represented by ample working capital of $28
million and retained earnings of $25 million. This gives us the resources to
make judicious investments to stimulate our growth or operate more efficiently,
including other acquisitions that fit our criteria, like PowerBoss, by giving us
equipment we don't offer presently, allowing us to compete more effectively or
leveraging our fixed costs to produce higher profitability.

To share our good fortune with our investors, the Board of Directors declared
Minuteman's 42nd consecutive quarterly dividend in the amount of 11 cents per
share, payable February 15, 1999 to shareholders of record February 1, 1999.

I am encouraged as I look ahead in the new year because I see Minuteman
capitalizing on:

-    Sales gains in North America and Europe (but continuing weakness in Asia),

-    An effective integration of PowerBoss as a wholly owned subsidiary of
     Minuteman,

-    Broader acceptance of the new products we introduced in 1998,

-    More additions to the product line in 1999,

-    Further emphasis on controlling expenses, and 

-    A vigilance for possible alliances.


Sincerely,



Jerome E. Rau,
President and Chief Executive Officer
March 15, 1999

MINUTEMAN UNFURLS DOMESTIC STRENGTH
        DOMESTIC SALES INCREASE 11%
In a global year marked by collapsing economies which subsequently caused
weakened demand for US goods and services, Minuteman International unfurled an
11% increase in net domestic sales. This substantial increase was possible for
several key reasons:



<PAGE>   4

INDUSTRY CONSOLIDATION. LONG HELD, STABLE RELATIONSHIPS.
Rapid consolidation in the floor cleaning industry has forced distributors and
manufacturers to increase in size, but lessen in number. The result is fewer
customers and more keen competition for those who hold a larger share of the
market. Minuteman's longtime, exceptional relationships with each of their
customers has been rewarded during this period of consolidation with loyalty and
outstanding domestic sales.

NATIONAL ACCOUNTS. FOCUSED MARKETING AND SERVICE.
In 1998, Minuteman focused on identifying and aggressively servicing over 200
major national accounts. Because national accounts require a greater volume of
products throughout large regions or for the entire United States, and require
installation, warranties, servicing and quick delivery, Minuteman's unique
network of distributors is able to provide an exceptional service structure and
deliver high quality, timely products to each of these accounts.

AGGRESSIVE PROMOTIONS. DISTRIBUTOR PROFIT.
Creative promotional efforts that help Minuteman distributors flourish, are the
hallmark of Minuteman's outstanding marketing savvy. Activities such as sales
incentives and targeted end-user advertising campaigns, solidify and enhance
long term relationships with customers. Successful marketing also includes
direct sales opportunities for distributors in conjunction with national
advertising support that bolsters the Minuteman product line through extended
market visibility and by direct response leads directly from industry
publications and end-users.

STABLE, SEASONED MANAGEMENT TEAM. OLD-FASHIONED INTEGRITY LEADS THE WAY.
"At Minuteman, We view our word as our bond."
Jerry Rau, President, 
Minuteman International

Apparently So! Over 600 loyal customers continue to depend on it everyday.
Minuteman maintains and fosters an exceptional, long term management team. Each
member of the team brings years of individual experience, integrity and long
held commitment to the industry and to each Minuteman policy, product and
customer relationship. The success of Minuteman is possible because of an
aggressive, straightforward management position to deliver high quality
products, maintain cost structures, design and retool innovative products with
cutting-edge engineering and technology.

MINUTEMAN INTERNATIONAL ACQUIRES AAR POWERBOSS(R) 
NEW PURCHASE SOLIDIFIES MINUTEMAN'S POSITION AS ONE OF THE TOP MANUFACTURERS IN
THE CLEANING EQUIPMENT INDUSTRY.
In a bold and aggressive move, Minuteman International acquired AAR PowerBoss
Corporation of Aberdeen, North Carolina, a wholly owned subsidiary of AAR
Corporation of Wood Dale, Illinois. The purchase of PowerBoss, for approximately
$12 million in cash, solidifies Minuteman's position as one of the top cleaning
equipment manufacturers in the industry with combined annual revenues
approaching $75 million.

PowerBoss will extend the Minuteman product line into larger machines with 
a fast-growing line of rider-operated floor/surface maintenance equipment
distributed in over 30 countries. The new equipment will compliment Minuteman's
commercial machines as well as strengthen their market position in the industry
-- especially with the growing building contractor segment which requires
larger, more productive products.

Both companies employ skilled workforces and deliver successful products, 
however in different markets. By utilizing the combined strengths of the two
companies in areas such as new product development, management focus on the
cleaning industry, strong brand-name awareness, worldwide distributors and
manufacturing synergies, Minuteman will continue to build and lead the industry
from a preeminent and strategic position in the global marketplace.

MULTI-CLEAN(R) BREAKING OLD BARRIERS
     INFUSING THE INDUSTRY WITH NEW FLOOR CARE PRODUCTS THAT STUN THE INDUSTRY

TEAMWORK, CREATIVE INGENUITY & TECHNICAL SKILL DEFINE FIRST-RATE MULTI-CLEAN.
Tapping into the deep and lucrative chemical sales market is no easy task --
unless your team is composed of talented and innovative chemists, professional
and highly experienced engineers and a sales staff that is backed by a senior
management team dedicated to delivering new products that break old floor care
barriers.

Multi-Clean's introduction of the UV-20, a revolutionary, "first-on-the-market"

the uncommon teamwork and synergy that occurs when two industry giants work
together to design a product that is unlike any other on the market. The
development of this unique product, which embodies a unique chemical/ floor
equipment marriage, was possible because of the close working relationship
between exceptional chemists at Multi-Clean and sophisticated equipment
engineers at Minuteman. Innovative products like the UV-20 will pave the way for
Multi-Clean to enter new distribution channels and break into new territories.

In 1998, Multi-Clean's domestic sales increased by 18% as a result of the
introduction of new products, an increasingly sophisticated and seasoned sales
force as well as the strengthening residual sales of products introduced late in
1997 such as the Dilution Control System. Multi-Clean's Dilution Control System
is an example of a growing target market segment -- customers who re-order
replacement chemicals for dispensing systems.

1998 MINUTEMAN INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORT

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL
CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS EARNINGS
Net Income for the year 1998 was $3,332,000 or $.93 per share compared with
$2,847,000 or $.80 per share for the year 1997.

Record net sales for 1998 represented an increase of 5.9% as compared to 1997
and was fueled by strong domestic dealer demand, as domestic sales increased 11%
over the comparable period. Gross profit during 1998 increased as a percent to
net sales to 32.0% from 30.8% in 1997. The positive effects of higher volume,
combined with cost containment efforts and selective price increases made at the
end of 1997 to compensate for vendor price increases, accounted primarily for
this increase but were partially offset by the negative impact of product mix
changes. Operating profits increased 18% due to these cost containment efforts
in spite of increases in the cost of new product introductions and marketing
initiatives aimed at gaining market share. The benefits received in other income
in 1998 due to the gain recognized on the sale of our former Glendale,
California warehouse facility during 1998, offset in part by interest expense
incurred relative to the net asset purchase of AAR PowerBoss, accounted for the
increase in other income compared to 1997.

The 1997 sales increase of 8.6%, as compared to 1996, was fueled by strong
dealer demand both domestically and internationally. Response to our product
introductions was strong as were sales across most product lines. 1997 margin as
a percent to sales was approximately the same as 1996 in spite of the Company
not having raised prices since early 1996, while having absorbed vendor price
increases. Operating profits were adversely affected due to higher promotional
expenses aimed at gaining market share and the costs associated with our
establishing Multi-Clean as a separate division to handle our entire line of
chemical cleaning products. The reorganization should improve profitability in
the years to come. The benefits received in other income in 1996 due to the sale
of the remaining portion of our former St. Paul manufacturing facility likewise
contributed to this earnings decline, primarily accounting for the decrease in
earnings per share from 1996.

SALES
Net sales increased 5.9% or $3,139,000 in 1998 compared to 1997. The Company's
commercial product line, substantially all of which is domestically
manufactured, increased $836,000 or 1.6% compared to 1997. This increase is due
primarily to the favorable response to our product introductions, strong sales
across most product lines and by strong sales to our North American dealer
organization. These results were hampered by a decline in international business
due primarily to the economic and currency turmoil experienced in the Pacific
Rim. Sales of industrial products increased $ 2,303,000 in 1998 compared to
1997.

Net sales increased 8.6% or $4,226,000 in 1997 compared to 1996. The Company's
commercial product line, substantially all of which is domestically
manufactured, increased $4,532,000 or 9.5% compared to 1996. This increase is
due primarily to the sales of new products, our continued expansion in overseas
markets and by strong sales to our North American dealer organization.

GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit percentage for 1998 increased to 32.0% as compared with 30.8% in
1997 as the result of increased sales volume combined with the positive effects
of selective price increases made at the end of 1997.
<PAGE>   12

As a percent to net sales, 1997 gross profit was approximately the same as in
1996. The effects of higher volume were offset in part by the Company not having
raised prices since early 1996 and absorbing vendor price increases.

SELLING EXPENSES
Selling expenses, as a percent to net sales, increased from 18.5% in 1997 to
18.7% in 1998. The increase resulted primarily from higher promotional expenses
aimed at gaining market share and increased personnel expenses.

Selling expenses, as a percent to net sales, increased from 17.4% in 1996 to
18.5% in 1997. The increase resulted primarily from higher promotional expenses
aimed at gaining market share, increased personnel expenses and the costs
associated with our establishing Multi-Clean as a separate division to handle
our entire line of chemical cleaning products.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
For 1998 these expenses increased 7.4% from 1997 due primarily to higher
personnel expenses.

For 1997 these expenses increased 4.7% from 1996 due primarily to higher
personnel expenses and professional fees.

OTHER INCOME
The Company's interest income decreased $21,000 in 1998 and $1,000 in 1997 due
to lower investable funds.

In 1998 the Company incurred interest expense of $196,000 on short-term debt
resulting primarily from purchases of inventory and capital expenditures as well
as long-term debt resulting from the purchase of the net assets of AAR
PowerBoss. In 1997 the Company incurred interest expense of $57,000 on
short-term debt resulting primarily from purchases of inventory and capital
expenditures.

In 1998 other income increased $293,000 due primarily to the gain recognized on
the sale of our former Glendale, California warehouse facility in 1998. In 1997
other income decreased $379,000 due primarily to the gain recognized on the sale
of the remaining portion of our former St. Paul manufacturing facility in 1996.

INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate was 36.7%, 34.6% and 36.4% for 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. The increase in the 1998 rate is caused principally by reduced
benefits received from our Foreign Sales Corporation during 1998. The decrease
in the 1997 tax rate from 1996 is caused principally by lower state income
taxes.

INFLATION
Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's business during the
past three years.


FINANCIAL CONDITION
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCIAL POSITION
The Company had working capital of $28.4 million and $19.9 million at December
31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This represented a current ratio of 5.6 and 7.2
for those years respectively.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments represented 5.6% and 3.6% of
this working capital at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This increase
in 1998 was due to receipts of cash relative to the newly acquired receivables
from AAR PowerBoss.

At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had shareholders' equity of $30.8
million and $29.1 million, respectively, which when compared to total
liabilities represented an equity to liability ratio of 1.5 and 8.5,
respectively.
<PAGE>   13

The Company has more than sufficient capital resources and is in a strong
financial position to meet business and liquidity needs as they arise. The
Company foresees no unusual future events that will materially change the
aforementioned summarization.

MARKET RISK
The Company's earnings and cash flow are subject to fluctuations due to changes
in foreign currency exchange rates. Currently these earnings and foreign
currency translation adjustments have not been material to the overall financial
results of the Company.

The Company has also entered into an interest rate swap agreement to obtain a
fixed interest rate on variable rate debt to reduce certain exposures to
interest rate fluctuations. In the event that a counterparty fails to meet the
terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company's exposure is limited to
the interest rate differential. The Company manages the credit risk of
counterparties by dealing only with institutions that the Company considers
financially sound. The Company considers the risk of nonperformance to be
remote.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE
The Company is preparing for the impact of the arrival of the Year 2000 on its
business, as well as on the businesses of its customers, suppliers and business
partners. The "Year 2000 Issue" is a term used to describe the problems created
by systems that are unable to accurately interpret dates after December 31,
1999. These problems are derived predominantly from the fact that many software
programs have historically categorized the "year" in a two-digit format. The
Year 2000 Issue creates potential risks for the Company, including potential
problems in the Company's products as well as in the Information Technology
("IT") and non-IT systems that the Company uses in its business operation. The
Company may also be exposed to risks from third parties with whom the Company
interacts who fail to adequately address their own Year 2000 Issues.

THE COMPANY'S STATE OF READINESS
Beginning in late 1997, the Company began the process of reviewing all IT and
non-IT systems, including Company products and internal operating systems for
potential Year 2000 Issues. This assessment was completed in the second quarter
of 1998. The Company determined that it would be required to modify or replace
significant portions of its software so that its IT systems will function
properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The Company is
utilizing both internal and external resources to reprogram, replace and test
the software for Year 2000 modifications and anticipates completing the Year
2000 project no later than July 31, 1999, which is prior to any anticipated
impact on its IT systems. The Company presently believes that with modifications
to existing software and conversions to new software, the Year 2000 Issue will
not pose significant operations problems for its IT systems. The Company has
determined it has little, if any, exposure to contingencies related to the Year
2000 Issue for non-IT systems and products it has sold.

The Company has initiated formal communications with all of its significant
suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to which the Company's
interface systems are vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remediate
their own Year 2000 Issues. The Company's total Year 2000 project cost and
estimates to complete include the estimated costs and time associated with the
impact of third party Year 2000 Issues based on presently available information.
However, there can be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which
the Company's systems rely will be timely converted and would not have an
adverse effect on the Company's systems.

THE COSTS TO ADDRESS THE COMPANY'S YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The total costs associated with the Company's Year 2000 remediation is not
expected to be material to the Company's financial position or results of
operations. These estimated total costs will be funded through operating cash
flows.

THE RISKS OF THE COMPANY'S YEAR 2000 ISSUES
There can be no assurance that the Company will be completely successful in its
efforts to address Year 2000 Issues. If some of the Company's IT systems or
products are not Year 2000 compliant, the Company could suffer lost sales or
other negative consequences, including, but not limited to,
<PAGE>   14
diversion of resources, damage to the Company's reputation, increased service
and warranty costs and litigation, any of which could materially adversely
affect the Company's business operations or financial statements.

The Company is also dependent on third parties such as its customers, suppliers,
service providers and other business partners. If these or other third parties
fail to adequately address Year 2000 Issues, the Company could experience a
negative impact on its business operations or financial statements. For example,
the failure of certain of the Company's principal suppliers to have Year 2000
compliant internal systems could impact the Company's ability to manufacture
and/or ship its products or to maintain adequate inventory levels for
production.

THE COMPANY'S CONTINGENCY PLANS
Although the Company has not yet developed a comprehensive contingency plan to
address situations that may result if the Company or any of the third parties
upon which the Company is dependent is unable to achieve Year 2000 readiness,
the Company's Year 2000 compliance program is ongoing and its ultimate scope, as
well as the consideration of contingency plans, will continue to be evaluated as
new information becomes available.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A - BUSINESS INFORMATION
Minuteman International, Inc. (the "Company") operates primarily in one business
segment, which consists of the development, manufacture and marketing of
commercial and industrial floor maintenance equipment and related products. The
Company sells to a multitude of regional, national and international customers,
primarily within the sanitary supply industry. No single customer accounted for
more than ten percent of net sales in 1998, 1997 or 1996.

The Company sells to affiliated (see Note H) and unaffiliated customers in
foreign countries. For 1998, 1997, and 1996, these sales aggregated $10,642,000,
$12,062,000 and $11,173,000, respectively, and were principally to customers in
Canada, the Pacific Rim, the Middle East, Europe, and Latin America.


NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company (an
Illinois corporation) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Multi-Clean, Minuteman
PowerBoss, Inc., Minuteman Canada, Inc., Minuteman European B.V. and Minuteman
International Foreign Sales Corporation. Significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the last-in,
first-out (LIFO) method for a majority (1998-56%, 1997-77%) of inventories and
the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method for the remainder. Inventories at December
31, 1998 and 1997 consist of the following:

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are stated on the basis of cost. Depreciation is 
computed by both the straight line and accelerated methods for financial
reporting purposes and by the accelerated method for tax purposes.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company has classified as intangible assets the cost in excess of the fair
value of net assets of businesses acquired. Amortization is computed on a
straight line basis over twenty years.

INCOME TAXES
Income taxes have been provided using the liability method. Under this method
deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between
financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured
using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences
are expected to reverse.

NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Net income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during each year (3,568,385 in 1998, 1997 and 1996). Basic
and fully diluted earnings per share are the same amounts.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The balance sheet accounts of the foreign subsidiary have been translated into
United States dollars using the current exchange rate at the balance sheet date.
Income statement amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate
for the year. Gains and losses resulting from the change in exchange rates have
been classified as a separate component of shareholders' equity.

CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all bank certificates of deposit and Eurodollar
certificate investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased
to be cash equivalents.

SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
Short-term investments have been categorized as available for sale and are
stated at cost, which approximates fair value. Investments include certificates
of deposit, Eurodollar and treasury certificates, and a managed portfolio of
high quality liquid variable rate notes and tax exempt seven day bonds all with
domestic commercial banks.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
Research and development expenses for 1998, 1997 and 1996, approximated
$1,118,000, $1,102,000 and $1,146,000 respectively.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which
is required to be adopted in years beginning after June 15, 1999. Because of the
Company's minimal use of derivatives, management does not anticipate that the
adoption of the new Statement will have a significant effect on earnings or the
financial position of the Company.

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131,
"Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" in 1998
which changes the way companies report 


<PAGE>   20

information about its operating segments. As mentioned in Note A, the Company
operates as one business segment so the effect of this adoption is minimal.

Effective October 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"), which
establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components; however, the adoption had no impact on the Company's net income
or shareholders' equity. SFAS 130 requires currency translation adjustments,
which prior to adoption were reported separately in shareholders' equity, to be
included in comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the requirements of SFAS 130.

NOTE C - ACQUISITION
On November 23, 1998, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with
AAR PowerBoss Inc. ("PowerBoss"), for the acquisition of substantially all of
the net assets and assumption of certain liabilities of PowerBoss. PowerBoss
designs, manufactures, and repairs ride-on and walk-behind sweepers and
scrubbers for floor and carpet care for use in industrial applications. The cash
purchase price, (subject to a purchase price adjustment), including related
acquisition costs, was $11,631,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired business are
included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 1998. The results of
PowerBoss's operations are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income
from the date of acquisition until December 31, 1998, but were not significant.
The acquisition was financed with borrowed funds from the long-term debt
agreement entered into on November 18, 1998 (see Note D). The aggregate
consideration has been allocated to the assets of PowerBoss based upon their
respective fair market values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair
value of the net assets acquired (intangible assets) in 1998 approximated
$5,950,000 and is being amortized over 20 years. The unaudited pro forma
combined historical results, as if PowerBoss had been acquired at the beginning
of the years 1998 and 1997 respectively, are estimated to be:

</TABLE>


These pro forma results of operations have been prepared for comparative 
purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations
which actually would have resulted had the acquisition occurred on the date
indicated or which may result in the future.

NOTE D - DEBT
SHORT TERM DEBT
The Company entered into unsecured Line of Credit arrangements for short-term
debt with financial institutions which expire in May, 1999 and November, 1999.
Under the terms of these agreements the Company may borrow up to $10 million on
terms mutually agreeable to the Company and each financial institution. There
are no requirements for compensating balances or restrictions of any kind
involved in this arrangement. At December 31, 1998 and 1997 there were no
borrowings outstanding.

LONG TERM DEBT
The Company financed the PowerBoss acquisition (See Note C) by entering into a
term loan agreement with a financial institution on November 18, 1998 for
$13,500,000. This unsecured credit facility provides for an interest rate at
LIBOR plus an applicable margin based upon the ratio of debt outstanding to the
Company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and
ranges from .70% to 1.15%. The margin rate on this debt at December 31, 1998 was
 .80% (see Note F). The Company agreed to maintain certain minimum financial
ratios. Maturities of long term debt are as follows:

Interest paid for short-term and long-term debt obligations in 1998, 1997 and
1996 was $110,000, $57,000 and $0, respectively.

NOTE E - INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes primarily relate to temporary differences in the
recognition of depreciation expense and other accrued expenses for financial
reporting and income tax purposes. The temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities
that result in significant amounts of deferred taxes in the consolidated balance
sheets at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:

The Company paid income taxes of $1,975,000, $1,592,000 and $1,933,000 in 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively. State income taxes amounted to $315,000, $294,000
and $344,000 for 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Foreign income taxes
amounted to ($100,000), $21,000 and $22,000 for 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

NOTE F - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents and trade receivables. The
Company places its cash equivalents with high credit quality financial
institutions, which are Federally insured up to prescribed limits. However, the
amount of cash equivalents at any one institution may exceed the Federally
insured prescribed limits. Concentrations of credit risks with regard to trade
receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the
Company's customer base. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses which, when
incurred, have been within the range of management expectations.

In 1998, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to obtain a
fixed interest rate on variable rate debt and reduce certain exposures to
interest rate fluctuations. At December 31, 1998, the Company had interest rate
swaps with a notional amount of $13,500,000. The swaps will terminate


<PAGE>   22

on the same basis as the long-term debt repayment schedule ending November, 2005
(See Note D). The swaps result in fixed rate payments at an effective interest
rate of 6.20%. Variable rate payments are based on LIBOR interest rate plus an
applicable margin (See Note D).

Interest rate differentials paid or received under this agreement are recognized
as an adjustment to interest expense. The Company does not hold or issue
interest rate swap agreements for trading purposes.

In the event that a counterparty fails to meet the terms of the interest rate
swap agreement, the Company's exposure is limited to the interest rate
differential. The Company manages the credit risk of counterparties by dealing
only with institutions that the Company considers financially sound. The Company
considers the risk of nonperformance to be remote. The net carrying amounts and
fair values of the Company's financial instruments are approximately the same.

NOTE G - LEASE COMMITMENTS
The Company and its subsidiaries lease certain manufacturing, warehousing and
other facilities and equipment. The leases generally provide for the lessee to
pay taxes, maintenance, insurance and certain other operating costs of the
leased property. The leases on most of the properties contain renewal
provisions. The following is a summary of future minimum payments under
operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancelable lease terms in
excess of one year at December 31, 1998:

Rental expense for operating leases amounted to $219,000, $128,000 and $105,000,
in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

NOTE H - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Hako-Werke GmbH & Co. (a German corporation) owns 69.0% of the outstanding
common stock of the Company through a subsidiary.

The Company purchased inventories of approximately $46,000, $58,000 and $198,000
from Hako-Werke in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Amounts due to
Hako-Werke, which relate to these purchases, are due within 90 days from the
date of shipment.

The Company sold approximately $1,403,000, $1,968,000 and $1,807,000 of
merchandise to Hako-Werke and certain of its subsidiaries during 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively. Amounts due from affiliates, which relate to these sales,
are due within 90 days from the date of sale.

NOTE I - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company maintains a participatory defined contribution plan for
substantially all employees under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
In addition to a discretionary contribution, the Company also matches employee
contributions based upon a formula up to a specified maximum. Contributions to
the plan and related expense were $284,000, $268,000 and $237,000 for the years
ended 1998, 1997 and 1996 respectively.

MARKETS FOR THE COMPANY'S SECURITIES AND RELATED MATTERS
On March 1, 1999 the last reported sales price of the common stock on the NASDAQ
systems was $12 15/16. The approximate number of holders of common stock was
1100.

Since 1988 the Board of Directors has declared regular quarterly dividends and
the fourth quarter dividend in 1998 represents the forty-first consecutive
dividend paid to shareholders. Future dividend policy will be determined by the
Board of Directors in light of prevailing financial needs and earnings of the
Company and other relevant factors.

The common stock of Minuteman International, Inc. is quoted on The Nasdaq Stock

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Shareholders of Minuteman International, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Minuteman
International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the
related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Minuteman
International, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT
The management of Minuteman International, Inc. is responsible for the integrity
of the information presented in this Annual Report, including the Company's
financial statements. These statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and include, where necessary, informed
estimates and judgments by management.

The Company maintains systems of accounting and internal controls designed to
provide assurance that assets are properly accounted for, as well as to insure
that the financial records are reliable for preparing financial statements. The
systems are augmented by qualified personnel and are reviewed on a periodic
basis.

The Company maintains high standards when selecting, training, and developing
personnel, to ensure that management's objectives of maintaining strong,
effective internal accounting controls and unbiased, uniform reporting standards
are attained. The Company believes its policies and procedures provide
reasonable assurance that operations are conducted in conformity with law and
with the Company's commitment to a high standard of business conduct.

Our independent auditors, Ernst & Young LLP, conduct annual audits of our
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which include the review of internal controls for the purpose of establishing
their audit scope, and issue an opinion of the fairness of such financial
statements.

The Board of Directors pursues its responsibility for the quality of the
Company's financial reporting primarily through its Audit Committee which is
composed of three outside directors. The Audit Committee meets periodically with
management and the independent auditors to review the manner in which they are
performing their responsibilities and to discuss auditing, internal accounting
controls, and financial reporting matters. The independent auditors periodically
meet alone with the Audit Committee and have full and free access to the Audit
Committee at any time.
