Part I - Financial Information (Cont'd.) Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 This 10Q may contain forward-looking statements as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements present management(s) expectations, beliefs, plans and objectives regarding future financial performance, and assumptions or judgments concerning such performance. Any discussions contained in this 10-Q, except to the extent that they contain historical facts, are forward-looking and accordingly involve estimates, assumptions, judgments and uncertainties. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those addressed in the forward-looking statements. Such factors are detailed in the Company(s) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Results from Operations Second Quarter of 2001 Compared to Second Quarter of 2000 Net income for the second quarter of 2001 was $32.5 million or $.54 per diluted share, compared with $31.6 million or $.52 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2000 ($47.8 million or $.78 per diluted share including non-operating gains). During the second quarter of 2000, non-operating gains of $16.2 million or $.26 per diluted share resulted from the sale of investments. Operating profit for the second quarter of 2001 was $55.2 million on sales of $409.0 million compared with $54.9 million on sales of $388.0 million for the second quarter of 2000. Operating profit margins were 13.5% for the second quarter of 2001 compared with 14.1% for the second quarter of 2000. Net sales from domestic businesses were 73% of the quarter(s) total net sales in 2001 compared with 79% in the same three-month period of 2000. Operating profit from domestic businesses was 76% and 89% of total operating profit for 2001 and 2000, respectively. Operating profit margins for domestic businesses were 14.0% in 2001 compared with 15.9% in 2000. Operating profit margins for non-US businesses were 12.2% in 2001 versus 7.6% in 2000. Acquisitions On April 1, 2001, the Company acquired for approximately $37 million plus working capital, the Industrial Flow Group of Alfa Laval Holding AB (renamed Crane Process Flow Technologies) which had annual sales of $77 million in 2000 and which has been immediately accretive to Crane(s) earnings. On June 29, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Xomox valve business from Emerson Electric, for a purchase price of $145 million. Xomox, with annual sales of approximately $150 million, is a leading global supplier of sleeved plug valves, quarter-turn valves and actuators under the Tufline and Matryx brand names. Diluted earnings per share relating to the Xomox acquisition are expected to be slightly positive in 2001 and $0.10 per share in 2002. Aerospace sales increased $15.1 million or 17% to $104.7 million for the second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000. Operating profit increased $1.4 million or 5% to $26.9 million in the second quarter of 2001 versus $25.5 million in the second quarter of 2000. Operating profit margins were 25.7% in the second quarter of 2001 compared with 28.4% in the second quarter of 2000 as spending increased for research and development on new programs in 2001 at Hydro-Aire and ELDEC. Interpoint was again profitable in the quarter. -8-
Part I - Financial Information (Cont'd) Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 Engineered Materials sales decreased $11.5 million or 12% to $80.9 million for the second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000 primarily due to weak transportation and recreational vehicle markets for Kemlite. Segment operating profit decreased $2.7 million, or 19% to $11.8 million in the second quarter of 2001 versus $14.5 million in the second quarter of 2000. Operating profit margins were 14.6% compared with 15.7% in the second quarter of 2000. Kemlite experienced a sales decline of $6.7 million or 11% to $52.4 million and an operating profit decline of $1.6 million or 15% for the second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000 as truck trailer and recreational vehicle production decreased 53% and 17% respectively, from the second quarter of 2000. Results at Resistoflex were moderately lower than the same prior year quarter due to continued lower shipments to the chemical process industry. Merchandising Systems sales decreased $3.0 million or 5% to $54.1 million for the second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000. Segment operating profit decreased $2.5 million or 29% to $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2001 versus $8.9 million in the second quarter of 2000 as strong results at NRI were more than offset by lower results at Crane Merchandising Systems. Operating profit margins were 11.8% in the second quarter of 2001 compared with 15.6% in the second quarter of 2000. Crane Merchandising Systems sales, which declined 13% in the first quarter, were off 23% in the second quarter compared to the prior year and resulted in substantially lower operating profits. NRI(s) sales increased $8.1 million, or 81%, to $18.2 million and operating profit more than doubled due to very strong demand in anticipation of the conversion to the euro in January 2002. Fluid Handling sales increased $23.7 million or 20% to $140.7 million for the second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000. Operating profit increased $3.2 million to $12.7 million in the second quarter of 2001 versus $9.5 million in the second quarter of 2000. Operating profit margins were 9.0% in the second quarter of 2001 compared with 8.1% in the second quarter of 2000. Crane(s) valve businesses increased sales by $29.2 million and operating profit by $4.1 million reflecting positive comparisons in Valve Services, the Marine markets and the April 1, 2001 acquisition of Crane Process Flow Technologies. The Valve & Pump short-cycle businesses that are sensitive to the economy had 10-15% declines in sales and reduced operating profits. -9-
Part I - Financial Information (Cont'd) Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 Controls sales decreased $3.3 million or 10% to $29.3 million for the second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000. Operating profit increased $1.6 million to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2001 versus a loss of $.5 million in the second quarter of 2000 principally as a reflection of a sharp reduction in Ferguson(s) operating loss. Results from Operations Six Months Ended June 30,2001 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30,2000 For the six months ended June 30, 2001, net income (excluding a special charge of $4.0 million or $.07 per diluted share) was $56.7 million or $.94 per diluted share, compared with $59.3 million or $.96 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2000 ($75.5 million or $1.22 per diluted share including non-operating gains). The special charge relates to the retirement of R. S. Evans as the Company(s) Chief Executive Officer and represents stock-based retirement costs that previously were being amortized to an anticipated retirement at age 65. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, a minority investment in a telecommunications power supply venture was sold, generating a non-operating gain of $16.2 million or $.26 per diluted share. Operating profit for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $98.7 million (excluding the special charge) on sales of $788.3 million compared with $102.9 million on sales of $771.8 million in 2000. Operating profit margins for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were 12.5% (excluding the special charge) compared with 13.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Order backlog at June 30, 2001 totaled $525.3 million, an increase of $93.1 million, or 22%, from June 30, 2000 and a $7.9 million decrease from March 31, 2001. During the six months ended June 30,2001, the Company recognized a $1.2 million pre-tax loss in miscellaneous income on a euro currency option entered into in connection with the recently completed acquisition of the Industrial Flow Group of Alfa Laval Holding AB. Overall, the Company recognized a $1.4 million pre-tax gain on this option, of which $2.6 million was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2000. Net sales from domestic businesses were 75% of the six months total net sales in 2001 compared with 78% in the same six-month period of 2000. Operating profit from domestic businesses was 74% and 88% of total operating profit for 2001 and 2000, respectively. Operating profit margins for domestic businesses were 12.5% in 2001 compared with 16.0% in 2000. Operating profit margins for non-US businesses were 12.7% in 2001 versus 7.3% in 2000. -10-
Part I - Financial Information (Cont'd) Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 Aerospace sales increased $32.6 million or 19% to $204.1 million for the six months of 2001 compared with the same period of 2000. Operating profit increased $9.1 million or 22% to $51.4 million in the six months of 2001. Operating profit margins were 25.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared with 24.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. All business units improved lead by Hydro-Aire and ELDEC. Order backlog for the segment was $314.8 million at June 30, 2001, an increase of $33.0 million or 12% from June 30, 2000 and $6.0 million from March 31, 2001. Results in the Aerospace segment should remain strong in the second half of the year. Engineered Materials sales decreased $32.0 million or 17% to $157.6 million for the six months of 2001 compared with the six months of 2000 primarily due to weak transportation, recreational vehicle and chemical processing markets. Segment operating profit decreased $11.2 million, or 36% to $20.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Operating profit margins were 12.8% in 2001 compared with 16.6% in 2000 for the six-month period. Kemlite sales declined $19.8 million to $102.5 million and operating profit declined $7.6 million for the six months of 2001 compared with the six months of 2000 as truck trailer and recreational vehicle production continued to decrease compared with the six months ended June 30, 2000. Results at Resistoflex were affected by lower shipments to the chemical process industry of $3.4 million, lowering operating profit by $1.6 million compared to the same six-month period in 2000. Order backlog at June 30, 2001 was $15.5 million, a decrease of $2.9 million or 16% from June 30, 2000, and a $3.1 million decrease from March 31, 2001. Reduced backlog and continued weak transportation and petro-chemical markets are likely to result in second half 2001 operating profits which approximate the lower-than-historical prior year levels. Merchandising Systems sales decreased $1.7 million or 1% to $111.8 million for the six months of 2001 compared with the six months of 2000. Segment operating profit decreased $3.4 million or 18% to $15.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as continued strong results at NRI were more than offset by lower results at Crane Merchandising Systems. Operating profit margins were 13.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared with 16.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Crane Merchandising Systems sales declined 18% for the six months of 2001 compared with the same prior year period which resulted in an operating profit decline of $10.4 million. NRI(s)sales increased $15.5 million, to $36.3 million and operating profit increased $7.0 million due to the strong demand in anticipation of the conversion to the euro in January 2002. Order backlog at June 30, 2001 was $64.6 million, an increase of $44.4 million from June 30, 2000, and a decrease of $13.2 million from March 31, 2001. The backlog will continue to decrease each quarter as the advanced orders placed at NRI in anticipation of the introduction of the euro in January 2002 are shipped. Operating profit is anticipated to remain at these levels over the second half of the year as continued difficult operating conditions at Crane Merchandising Systems will offset a strong performance at NRI. Fluid Handling sales increased $22.6 million or 10% to $257.1 million for the six months of 2001 compared with the six months of 2000. Operating profit increased $2.3 million to $19.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Operating profit margins were 7.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared with 7.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Crane(s) valve businesses increased sales by $31.5 million and operating profit by $4.7 million as a result of improved Valve Services market, the Marine markets and the April 1, 2001 acquisition of Crane Process Flow Technologies. Crane Pumps operating profit decreased $1.5 million due to a $5.1 million decrease in sales and increased severance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared with the same prior year period. Order backlog at June 30, 2001 was $106.8 million, an increase of $22.8 million or 27% from June 30, 2000, and an increase of $5.0 million from March 31, 2001, due to the addition of Crane Process Flow Technologies backlog of $9.7 million. Fluid Handling(s) results should show improvement each quarter over the prior year reflecting strong backlog for projects in the marine, power and oil and gas markets, strict cost disciplines in valves and pumps sold through distribution in the U.S., higher volumes in nuclear valve services and the addition of Crane Process Flow Technologies and Xomox. -11-

Controls operating results are expected to remain profitable for the remainder of the year driven by improved performance at Ferguson and Azonix. Liquidity and Capital Resources For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company generated $81.4 million of cash from operating activities, versus $72.0 million in 2000. Net debt totaled 37.7% of capital at June 30, 2001 compared with 30.8% at June 30, 2000. The current ratio at June 30, 2001 was 2.2 with working capital totaling $337.8 million compared with 2.1 and $267.2 million at June 30, 2000. The Company had unused credit lines of $327.4 million available at June 30, 2001. During the first six months of 2001, the Company paid $27.8 million for the repurchase of 1.05 million shares of Crane common stock at an average price of $26.53 per share and $12.0 million for the payment of dividends. Debt increased by $141.5 million due to the four 2001 acquisitions mentioned below. Average diluted shares outstanding decreased by 1.2 million from the second quarter of 2000 due to the Company(s) share repurchases. The Company(s) cash flows and earnings are subject to fluctuations from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company manages its exposures to these market risks through internally established policies and procedures and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of interest rate swap agreements and forward exchange contracts. Of the $377.1 million in long-term debt outstanding at June 30 2001, $200 million was at fixed rates of interest ranging from 6.75% to 8.50% while $153 million was at a weighted average rate of 3.84% from the revolving credit agreement. At June 30, 2001, no interest rate swap agreements were outstanding and the amounts outstanding for forward exchange contracts were not material. The Company does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Acquisitions In the first six months of 2001, the Company acquired Ventech Controls, Inc., Laminated Profiles, Ltd., the Industrial Flow Group of Alfa Laval AB and the Xomox valve business of Emerson Electric. Total consideration paid in connection with these acquisitions was $190 million. All of the acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has not been completed for these acquisitions. Final determination of the fair values to be assigned may result in adjustments to the preliminary values assigned at the dates of acquisition. Preliminary estimates of goodwill recorded for these acquisitions aggregated approximately $90 million. On April 1, 2001, the Company acquired for approximately $37 million plus working capital, the Industrial Flow Group of Alfa Laval Holding AB (renamed Crane Process Flow Technologies) which had annual sales of $77 million in 2000 and which has been immediately accretive to Crane(s) earnings. On June 29, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of the Xomox valve business from Emerson Electric, for a purchase price of $145 million. Xomox, with annual sales of approximately $150 million, is a leading global supplier of sleeved plug valves, quarter-turn valves and actuators under the Tufline and Matryx brand names. Diluted earnings per share relating to the Xomox acquisition are expected to be slightly positive in 2001 and $0.10 per share in 2002. -12-

SFAS 142 requires the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the SFAS 142 includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill. SFAS 142 also requires the Company to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. The Company is currently assessing but has not yet determined the impact of SFAS 142 on its financial position and results of operations. Part II - Other Information Item 1.
