NOTE 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing earnings by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted EPS is
calculated after adjusting the numerator and the denominator of the basic EPS
calculation for the effect of all potential dilutive common shares outstanding
during the period. Information related to the calculation of earnings per share
of common stock is summarized as follows:

NOTE 4. ACQUISITIONS

On January 2, 2001, the Company acquired United Power
Corporation. The consideration was approximately $108 million. The fair
value of the assets acquired was approximately $118 million, and
approximately $10 million of liabilities were assumed. In the second
quarter of 2001, the Company acquired several small companies for total
consideration of approximately $118 million. All acquisitions have been
accounted for as purchases.

On July 3, 2000, the motion control businesses of Warner Electric
Company were acquired and merged into the Company. Total consideration was
approximately $147 million. The fair value of the

7
assets acquired was approximately $185 million and approximately $38
million of liabilities were assumed. The transaction is being accounted for
as a purchase.

On June 20, 2000, Kollmorgen Corporation was acquired and merged
into the Company. Total consideration was approximately $363 million,
including the assumption of approximately $96 million of debt. The fair
value of the assets acquired was approximately $537 million and
approximately $174 million of liabilities were assumed. The transaction is
being accounted for as a purchase.

On March 27, 2000, American Precision Industries was acquired and
merged into the Company. Total consideration was approximately $246
million, including assumption of approximately $60 million of debt.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
------- ---------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

Results of Operations
---------------------

Net sales for the 2001 second quarter were 7.4% higher than the
2000 quarter. Acquisitions accounted for 13% of this increase, offsetting a
core volume revenue decline of 4.5% and negative currency effects of 1%.
Sales declines in the Company's engine retarder, hand tool, drill chuck,
and power quality product lines accounted for the majority of the total
sales shortfall. Net sales for the six-month period were 11.6% higher than
the corresponding period in 2000. Acquisitions accounted for 16% of the
increase, core volume showed a 3.5% decrease, and negative currency effects
caused a 1% decrease. Weakness in the engine retarder and hand tool product
lines have caused the majority of the sales decline.

Gross profit margin in 2001, as a percentage of sales, was
approximately 39.2% for the quarter and 38.3% for the six-month period.
Margins for the quarter were flat compared to last year, and fell 0.3
points for the six month period. Decreases in gross margin are attributable
to the addition of lower gross margin product lines from the 2000 and 2001
acquisitions, and lower shipment volumes. These declines have been
partially offset by productivity improvements and manufacturing overhead
cost reductions implemented in both business segments.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the 2001 second
quarter increased $1.2 million versus the 2000 second quarter. Expenses
added from the 2000 and 2001 acquisitions were almost entirely offset by
overhead cost reductions and reductions in variable costs in existing
businesses across both segments. Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of sales was 21.3% for the 2001 quarter and 21.8%
for the six month

8
period. This represents a decrease of 1.4 and 1.2 percentage points,
respectively, from prior periods. This reflects principally cost reduction
efforts across both business segments.

Interest expense for the quarter was 4.5% higher than the 2000
second quarter. Average net debt levels were higher during 2001, reflecting
borrowings undertaken to finance acquisitions. For the six-month period,
interest expense was $4.3 million higher than in 2000, also reflective of
higher net debt levels.

The effective tax rate of 37.5% for the second quarter and the
six-month period in 2001, .5 percentage points lower than the respective
periods in the prior year, is mainly due to a higher proportion of foreign
earnings in 2001 compared to 2000.

On June 30, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
approved Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." The new standard requires that goodwill will not be
amortized, but will be reviewed annually for impairment. With respect to
acquisitions completed prior to June 30, 2001, the Company intends to
implement the new standard in the 1st quarter of 2002 and is currently in
the process of assessing the impact of adoption.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

The Company continues to experience strong operating cash flow,
driven primarily by reductions in working capital and a 16% increase in net
earnings for the six month period. Operating cash flow of $311.3 million
for the six month period reached record levels and was 9% over the same
period last year. Total debt increased to $1,174 million at June 29, 2001,
compared to $795.2 million at December 31, 2000. During the first quarter
of 2001, the Company issued $830 million (value at maturity) in zero-coupon
convertible senior notes due 2021 known as Liquid Yield Option Notes or
LYONS. The net proceeds to the Company were approximately $505 million, of
which approximately $100 million was used to pay down debt, and the balance
will be used for general corporate purposes, including potential future
acquisitions. The LYONS are convertible into approximately 6.0 million
common shares of the Company, and carry a yield to maturity of 2.375%.

Net cash paid for acquisitions was $118 million and $194 million,
respectively, for the quarter and six months ended June 30, respectively.
In the first quarter of 2001, the Company acquired United Power Corporation
for a cash price of approximately $108 million. The Company also disposed
of two small product lines during the first quarter of 2001, yielding cash
proceeds of approximately $32 million. There was no material gain or loss
recognized on the sale of these product lines. In the second quarter of
2001, the Company acquired several smaller companies for an aggregate cash
price of $118 million.

In the first quarter of 2000, the Company repurchased $82 million
of the Company's common stock and acquired American Precision Industries,
Inc. for a cash price of approximately $246 million including assumption of
debt, or $19.25 per share. In the second quarter of 2000, the Company
acquired Kollmorgen

9
Corporation for a cash price of approximately $363 million including the
assumption of debt, or $23 per share.

On June 28, 2000, the Company replaced its $250 million bank
credit facility with a new $500 million credit facility. The new facility
provides funds for general corporate purposes and has a five year term.
There have been no borrowings under either facility during 2001.

A regular quarterly dividend of $.02 per share was declared,
payable on July 31, 2001 to holders of record on June 29, 2001.

The cash and cash equivalents of $675 million on the June 29,
2001 balance sheet were invested in highly liquid investment grade short
term instruments. Interest income of $12.0 million was recognized in the
first six months of 2001. The Company's cash provided from operations, as
well as credit facilities available, should provide sufficient available
funds to meet normal working capital requirements, capital expenditures,
dividends, scheduled debt repayments, and to fund acquisitions, if
applicable.
