NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Mestek, Inc. (Mestek) and its majority owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). The financial statements as reported in Form 10-Q reflect all adjustments, including those of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of results for the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

        These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in particular the audited financial statements, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. Accordingly, Note disclosures that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the latest audited financial statements have been omitted from this filing.

Earnings per Common Share

        Basic earnings per share have been computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common stock options are considered in the computation of diluted earnings per share except when the effect would be antidilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation

        The Company has elected to account for stock-based compensation, effective with fiscal 2003, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 148, under the “fair value method”. The Company has further elected to account for the change in accounting principle under the “Prospective Method” as described in amended paragraph 52b of FAS No. 123. The Company made no option grants, modifications of option grants, or settlement of option grants in either the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 or the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and, accordingly, the change to the fair value method had no effect in either period on Net Income, Basic Earnings Per Share or Diluted Earnings Per Share. Under the “Prospective Method” any future option grants will affect Net Income, Basic Earnings Per Share and Diluted Earnings Per Share.

        With respect to stock-based compensation granted prior to fiscal 2003, the Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (“FAS No. 123”). As permitted by the statement, the Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensations using the intrinsic value method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for its stock-based compensation plan.

        Had the ‘fair value method’ of accounting been applied to the Company’s stock option plan, with compensation cost for the Plan determined on the basis of the fair value of the options at the grant date, the Company’s net loss and loss per share would not have been materially different.

Income Taxes

        Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Cash paid for income taxes was $409,000 and $889,000 during the six-months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

        For the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, the components of other comprehensive loss consisted of foreign currency translation adjustments, and, in the 2004 period, a liability related to a ‘hedge transaction’ interest rate swap entered into in February of 2004, as more fully explained in Note 3 to these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Comprehensive loss was $506,000 and $9,174,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively and $1,077,000 and $8,022,000, for the six-months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Reclassification

        Reclassifications are made periodically to previously issued financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements

        In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, which relates to accounting for plant shutdowns, restructuring and other such costs. FAS No. 146 is based on the fundamental principle that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity should be recorded when it (1) is incurred, that is, when it meets the definition of a liability in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements, and (2) can be measured at fair value. The principal reason for issuing FAS No. 146 is the FASB’s belief that some liabilities for costs associated with exit or disposal activities that entities record under current accounting pronouncements, in particular Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue 94-3, do not meet the definition of a liability. FAS No. 146 nullifies EITF Issue 94-3; thus, it will have a significant effect on practice because commitment to an exit or disposal plan no longer will be a sufficient basis for recording a liability for costs related to those activities. FAS No. 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company announced the shutdown of two manufacturing facilities in April 2003, as more fully described in Note 6, and is accounting for the related costs, including costs incurred in the three month period ended March 31, 2004 in accordance with FAS No. 146.

        In January 2003, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46”). FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns, or both. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about variable interest entities that a company is not required to consolidate, but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The Company has concluded that its investment in CareCentric, Inc. (“CareCentric”), which is described in more detail in Note 6 to the Company’s 2003 financial statements, is not subject to consolidation under the requirements of FIN 46.

        Except as disclosed in Note 6 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2003, the Company’s various investments in CareCentric have been substantially written off in prior years, and all contingent obligations have been fully reserved for, as reflected in the Company’s 2001, 2002, and 2003 and interim 2004 financial statements. Accordingly, there are no potential future investment losses or other loss contingencies associated with the Company’s various investments in CareCentric.

        In December 2003, FASB issued FAS No. 132R, Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and other Post-retirement Benefits. This Statement revises employers’ disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans. It does not change the measurement or recognition of those plans required by FAS No. 87, Employers’ Accounting for Pensions, FAS No. 88, Employers’ Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits, and FAS No. 106, Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. This Statement retains the disclosure requirements contained in FAS No. 132, Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, which it replaces. It requires additional disclosures to those in the original FAS No. 132 about the assets, obligations, cash flows, and net periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of FAS No. 132R. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

        In December 2003, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition, which codifies, revises and rescinds certain sections of SAB No. 101, Revenue Recognition, in order to make this interpretive guidance consistent with current authoritative accounting and auditing guidance and SEC rules and regulations. The changes noted in SAB 104 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

        Revolving Loan Agreement – The Company has a Revolving Loan Agreement and Letter of Credit Facility (“the Agreement”) with Bank of America (formerly Fleet National Bank), which expires on September 30, 2004. The Company presently is in receipt of a proposal and term sheet from Bank of America for a three-year renewal and increase in the credit facility and expects to document and close on this facility prior to the expiration of the current facility. The present Agreement’s terms are substantially unchanged from those described in Note 8 to the Company’s 2003 consolidated financial statements. The Agreement, as amended, provides $50 million of unsecured revolving credit including $10 million of standby letter of credit capacity. Borrowings under the Agreement bear interest at a floating rate based on the bank’s prime rate less one and three quarters percent (1.75%) or, at the discretion of the borrower, LIBOR plus a quoted market factor or, alternatively, in lieu of the prime based rate, a rate based on the overnight Federal Funds Rate. The Agreement contains financial covenants, which require that the Company maintain ratios, relating to interest coverage and leverage. As a result of the Environmental Litigation and Remediation Reserve, and the related subsidiary bankruptcy, as more fully described in Notes 7 and 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company was in technical violation of the aforementioned financial covenants as of December 31, 2003, March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004 and Bank of America has agreed to waive these violations. This Agreement also contains restrictions regarding the creation of indebtedness, the occurrence of mergers or consolidations, the sale of subsidiary stock and the payment of dividends in excess of 50 percent (50%) of net income. The Company has outstanding at June 30, 2004, $7,469,000 in standby letters of credit issued principally in connection with its commercial insurance programs.

        Hedge Transaction — On February 6, 2004, the Company entered into a single interest rate swap transaction, to effectively fix the Company’s 30 day-LIBOR-based, variable rate interest obligations on a principal amount of $14,000,000 of debt at a rate of 2.87% for three years.

        The Company entered into this swap transaction to manage interest cost and cash flows associated with variable interest rates, primarily short-term changes in LIBOR, as changes in cash flows of the interest rate swap offsets changes in the interest payments on the covered portion of the Company’s revolving credit facility, and based upon the Company’s belief that short term rates will be rising over the next several years.

        The Company is accounting for the interest rate swap under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities as amended by SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative instruments and Certain Hedging Activities. These statements require that all derivatives be recognized as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value.

        Changes in the fair value of the swap, designated as a cash flow hedge, are reflected as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and reclassified into earnings (interest expense) in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The derivative instrument is carried at “marked-to-market” fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in the applicable line item “Other Assets” or “Other Liabilities”.

        In connection with this interest rate swap transaction, the Company recorded an after-tax gain of $248,000 in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) during the quarter ended June 30, 2004 reflecting the effect of rising interest rate expectations during this period. The Company’s exposure to credit loss on its interest rate swap in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties is believed to be remote as the Company effected this swap through its principal bank, Bank of America requiring that the counterparty have a strong credit rating.

        Industrial Development Bond – On April 19, 2002, the Company’s subsidiary, Boyertown Foundry Company, Inc. (“BFC”), borrowed $5,512,490 under a note issued through the Berks County Industrial Development Authority in Berks County, PA in connection with a project to upgrade BFC’s foundry equipment in Boyertown, PA. The note bearing interest at 4.93% per annum, matures on April 19, 2012, and is payable in equal monthly payments of principal and interest over the term of the loan. The note is secured by a Loan and Security Agreement under which the equipment purchased by BFC with the loan proceeds is pledged as security for the note. The note is expected to be a ‘Qualified Small Issue Bond’ under Section 144 (a)(12) of the Internal Revenue Code, entitling the holder to tax exempt treatment on the interest. In the event the note is found to be not in compliance with Section 144 (a)(12), the interest rate on the note may be increased.

        Note Payable-Sovereign Bank — On April 16, 2004, the Company’s second tier subsidiary, Exton Ranch, Inc. (“Exton Ranch”), borrowed $3,720,000 from Sovereign Bank, secured by the manufacturing facility owned by Exton Ranch and occupied by the Company’s subsidiary, Omega Flex, Inc. (“Omega”) in Exton, PA. The loan bears interest at a variable LIBOR rate payable monthly in arrears. Principal under the loan is amortized over a 20-year period with a ten-year maturity. The borrower also has the ability to prepay the loan during the term thereof without penalty. The loan is secured by a first priority mortgage on the property, and a collateral assignment of leases, and fixture filing. Exton Ranch is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Omega, the primary tenant of the building, and Omega guaranteed the payment and performance of the obligations of Exton Ranch under the various loan agreements.

        Cash Paid for Interest — Cash paid for interest was $265,000 and $244,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Note 4 — Interim Segment Information

Description of the types of products and services from which each reportable Segment derives its revenues:

        The Company has two reportable Segments: the manufacture of heating, ventilating and air-conditioning equipment (“HVAC”) and the manufacture of metal handling and metal forming machinery (“Metal Forming”).

        The Company’s HVAC Segment manufactures and sells a variety of complementary residential, commercial and industrial heating, cooling and air control and distribution products. Collectively, the HVAC Segment’s products provide heating, cooling, ventilating, or some combination thereof, for residential, commercial and/or industrial building applications.

        The Metal Forming Segment, operating under the umbrella name “Formtek,” is comprised of several subsidiaries and divisions, constituting eight manufacturers and distributors of equipment used in the metal forming industry (the uncoiling, straightening, leveling, feeding, forming, bending, notching, stamping, cutting, stacking, bundling or moving of metal in the production of metal products, such as steel sheets, office furniture, appliances, vehicles, buildings, and building components, among many others) and an electrical design and distribution business.

        The HVAC and Metal Forming Segments are described in greater detail in Note 14 to the Company’s 2003 Consolidated Financial Statements.

Measurement of Segment profit or loss and Segment assets:

        The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on profit or loss from operations before interest expense and income taxes (Operating Profit), not including non-operating gains and losses. The accounting policies of the reportable Segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Inter-Segment sales and transfers are recorded at prices substantially equivalent to the Company’s cost; inter-Company profits on such inter-Segment sales or transfers are not material.

Factors management used to identify the enterprise’s reportable segments:

        The factors which identify the HVAC and Metal Forming Segments as reportable Segments are described in detail in Note 14 to the Company’s 2003 Consolidated Financial Statements.

        Information presented in the following tables relates to continuing operations only.

Note 5 — Stock Option Plans

        On March 20, 1996, the Company adopted a stock option plan, the Mestek, Inc. 1996 Stock Option Plan, (“Stock Option Plan”), which provides for the granting of options to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. No options were granted in the second quarter of 2004.

        Effective July 1, 1996, the Company’s subsidiary, Omega Flex (“Omega”) adopted a stock option plan (“Omega Plan”) which provides for the granting of both Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Options (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code) of up to 200 shares of stock to certain employees of Omega for the purchase of Omega’s common stock at fair market value as of the date of grant. The Company has reflected pre-tax charges to earnings in the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 of $166,000 and $172,000, respectively, for the compensation value of the options granted.

      Defined Benefit Plans

        The Company’s second-tier subsidiary, Met-Coil, maintained, prior to its acquisition by the Company’s subsidiary, Formtek Inc. on June 3, 2000, several defined benefit pension plans (the Met-Coil Plans) covering certain of its employees. The Met-Coil Plans were “frozen” and merged prior to the acquisition, “locking in” retirement benefits earned to that date and precluding any further benefits for future service. For the quarters ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded pension expense of $15,662 and $0, respectively, for the Met-Coil Plans.

        In connection with the acquisition of the assets of Airtherm Manufacturing Company and Airtherm Products, Inc. in 2000, the Company assumed certain obligations related to the defined benefit plan maintained by Airtherm, the Airtherm LLC Retirement Income Plan, prior to the acquisition date. Pension expense (benefit) under the Airtherm LLC Retirement Income Plan was ($488) for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, $0 for the year ended December 31, 2003 and $164,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002.

        The Company uses a December 31 measurement date for the Airtherm LLC Retirement Income Plan and September 30 for the Met-Coil Plan.

        In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 132 (revised 2003), Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post-Retirement Benefits, the following interim period information is provided:

Note 6 – Plant Shutdowns

        In April of 2003, the Company announced the closing of its Scranton, PA, (“Anemostat East”) and Bishopville, SC, (“King Company”) manufacturing facilities. In connection with these closings, Mestek, Inc. restructured and relocated manufacturing operations of the Anemostat and King products to Wrens, GA; Florence, KY; Dallas, TX; Carson, CA and Westfield, MA.

        On March 9, 2004, the Company announced plans to close its Milford, OH, (“Air Clean Damper”) manufacturing operations. The Company sold the principal assets associated with this business and the transaction closed on March 31, 2004. A nominal gain was recorded in the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 and is reflected in Other Income (Expense) for that period.

        The Company is accounting for the costs related to these “exit and disposal” activities, employee severance and related costs of shutting down manufacturing operations, in accordance with FAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (“FAS 146”). In the three-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company incurred $519,000 and $711,000, respectively, of such “exit and disposal” costs which are classified separately in the accompanying financial statements in accordance with FAS 146.

        The Scranton, PA and Milford, OH facilities are reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under the heading Property Held for Sale.

Note 7 – Commitments, Contingencies and Warranties

        As previously disclosed, the Company is obligated as a guarantor with respect to certain debt of CareCentric, Inc. (formerly Simione Central Holdings, Inc.) to CareCentric’s primary commercial bank, Wainwright Bank & Trust Company, in the amount of $6 million which amount was accrued as of December 31, 2001 and remains on the Company’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2004. The $6 million Wainwright credit line is secured by substantially all of CareCentric’s assets and is presently in the process of being renegotiated. It is the Company’s expectation that its guarantee obligation will be reduced as a result of this process. The balance outstanding under CareCentric’s credit line with Wainwright Bank & Trust Company as of June 30, 2004 was $1,325,000, down from $2,525,000 as of December 31, 2003. CareCentric was “taken private” on September 4, 2003 and is no longer a publicly traded company. The Company’s investments in CareCentric were not materially affected by that transaction.

Environmental Disclosure

        The Company is subject to several legal actions and proceedings in which various monetary claims are asserted. Although no assurances can be given, management, after consultation with its corporate legal department and outside counsel, does not anticipate that any ultimate liability arising out of all such litigation and proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company except as set forth below.

Bankruptcy and Environmental Issues Involving Releases of Hazardous Materials

        As disclosed in previous filings, the Lockformer Company (“Lockformer”), a division of the Company’s second tier subsidiary, Met-Coil Systems Corporation (“Met-Coil”), and Mestek directly (under various legal theories) are defendants in various actions relating to the alleged release and presence of trichloroethylene (“TCE”) contamination on and in the vicinity of Lockformer’s manufacturing facility in Lisle, IL. On August 26, 2003, Met-Coil filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (Case No. 03-12676-MFW). Met-Coil remains in possession of its assets and properties and continues to operate its businesses and manage its properties as a “debtor-in-possession” pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.

        Based upon statements made by the Bankruptcy Judge in Open Court at the recent July 28, 2004 Confirmation Hearing, Management believes that the Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Fourth Amended Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization (the “Proposed Plan”) proposed by Met-Coil and Mestek, as co-proponents, and will recommend to the United States District Court (Del.) that it approve and enter the “channeling injunction” discussed below, and certain related third party releases in favor of, among others, Mestek and its affiliates.

        This Proposed Plan is supported by all major parties in interest in the Met-Coil Chapter 11 case, and is expected to become effective in approximately six to twelve weeks from the date the Bankruptcy Judge confirms the Proposed Plan (which the Company anticipates will occur shortly), upon satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the Proposed Plan.

        The Proposed Plan settles the various legal actions which have been commenced against Met-Coil and Mestek with respect to an alleged release of TCE into the soils, groundwater or air in or around Met-Coil’s Lockformer Company facility in Lisle, Illinois. In addition, the Proposed Plan establishes a trust (the “TCE PI Trust”) for the holders of future claims or demands, who reside, resided or may reside in a certain geographic area in the vicinity of the facility in Lisle, Illinois, and who assert personal injury claims in the future. The TCE PI Trust is established to assume all such future personal injury claims and demands and pay and administer verified claims for up to 45 years. Upon establishment of such TCE PI Trust, Mestek and its affiliates will be released from any liabilities assumed by the TCE PI Trust for up to 45 years. Pursuant to the Proposed Plan, all such future claims and demands will be “channeled” to the TCE PI Trust and be paid in accordance with the distribution procedures established for such trust. This TCE PI Trust will be administered by an independent trustee, with power to mediate, arbitrate and, if necessary, litigate claims.

        The Company’s Environmental and Litigation Reserve as of the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was approximately $50,236,000. Management believes that no additional reserves, beyond those set forth in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2004, as reduced by $441,000 in remediation spending during the quarter ended June 30, 2004, are required to be taken, and accordingly, no additions to such reserves are included in the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Future insurance recoveries could reduce required reserves.

        The immediate cash requirements which will require borrowing under the Company’s credit facility upon the Proposed Plan’s becoming effective are estimated at approximately $16,000,000. In addition, letters of credit of approximately $17,000,000 are expected to be required in connection with the funding of the Proposed Plan (once confirmed and effective).

        The financial statements contained in this report reflect such reserves included in the caption “Liabilities Subject to Compromise”. These reserves have been established in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board Statement No. 5 and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 92. However, while these reserves represent management’s best estimate of these liabilities, and are based upon known or anticipated claims analysis estimated by various legal, scientific and economic experts, there is no assurance that these reserves will be adequate to meet all potentials claims arising from the environmental contamination at the Lisle, Illinois site. In addition, there can be no assurance that future claims for personal injury or property damage will not be asserted by other plaintiffs against Met-Coil and Mestek with respect to the Lockformer site and facility.

        As additional information and expert opinions become available to management, it may either be able to revise its estimate of the range of exposure, with appropriate revision to reserves taken, or continue to believe that no such better estimate is possible at the time. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion of this matter.

      Remediation – Lisle, IL:

        Met-Coil is continuing remediation of the Lockformer facility in Lisle, IL, pursuant to a Work Plan for the site (“on-site remediation”) approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and is awaiting approval of the remedial standards to be achieved by such Work Plan from the IEPA. In the quarter ended June 30, 2004, Met-Coil paid $441,000 in costs related to on-site remediation, and has a remaining reserve of $6,627,000 for future remediation costs as of June 30, 2004.

        In light of the remaining uncertainties surrounding the effectiveness of the available remediation technologies and the future potential changes in remedial objectives and standards, still further reserves may be needed in the future with respect to the on-site remediation of the Lisle facility. The complexity of aforementioned factors makes it impossible at this time to further estimate any additional costs.

      Other Claims Alleging Releases of Hazardous Materials or Asbestos Related Liability

        The Company is currently a party to approximately 200 asbestos-related lawsuits, and in the past six months has been named in approximately 10 to 15 new such lawsuits each month, primarily in one county in Illinois where numerous asbestos-related actions have been filed against numerous defendants.

        Almost all of these suits seek to establish liability against the Company as successor to companies that may have manufactured, sold or distributed asbestos-related products, and who are currently in existence and defending thousands of asbestos related cases, or because the Company currently sells and distributes boilers, an industry that has been historically associated with asbestos-related products. The Company believes it has valid defenses to all of the pending claims and vigorously contests that it is a successor to companies that may have manufactured, sold or distributed any product containing asbestos materials. However, the results of asbestos litigation have been unpredictable, and accordingly, an adverse decision or adverse decisions in these cases, individually or in the aggregate, could materially adversely affect the financial position and results of operation of the Company and could expose the Company to substantial additional asbestos related litigation and the defense costs thereof, which defense costs, because of the sheer number of asbestos claimants and the historical course of the litigation process in this area has the potential to become substantial, though these costs are not capable of estimation at this time. The total requested damages of these cases are over $3 billion. To date, however, the Company has had over 40 asbestos-related cases dismissed without any payment and it settled approximately twenty-three asbestos-related cases for a de minimis value. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to successfully defend or settle any pending litigation.

        In addition to the Lisle, IL site, the Company has been named or contacted by state authorities and/or the EPA regarding the Company’s asserted liability or has otherwise determined it may be required to expend funds for the remediation of certain other sites In North Carolina, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Such matters are detailed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in the section entitled “Managements’ Discussion and Analysis-Commitments and Contingencies”.

        The Company continues to investigate all of these matters. Given the information presently known, no estimation can be made of any liability which the Company may have with respect to these matters. There can be no assurance, but based on the information presently available to it, the Company does not believe that any of these matters will be material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Warranty Commitments

        Products sold by the Company are covered by various forms of limited warranty with terms and conditions that vary depending upon the product. The limited warranty typically covers the equipment, replacement parts and, in very limited circumstances, labor necessary to satisfy the warranty obligation for a period which is generally the earlier of 12 months from date of installation or 18 months from date of shipment from the Company factory, although some products or product components are warranted for periods ranging from eighteen months to ten years. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranty obligations and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and allowable costs per claim and recoveries from vendors. At least once a quarter the Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Costs to satisfy warranty claims are charged as incurred to the accrued warranty liability.

        Following is a summary of changes in the Company’s product warranty liability for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

                                                                Three months ended

Note 8 – Subsidiary Bankruptcy

        As a result of the ongoing environmental litigation described more fully in Note 7, on August 26, 2003, Met-Coil Systems Corporation (“Met-Coil” or, the “Debtor”), a second-tier subsidiary of Company filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtor remains in possession of its assets and properties, and continues to operate its businesses and manage its properties as a “debtor-in-possession” pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.

        Concurrently with the filing of the Chapter 11 petition, on August 26, 2003, the Debtor was granted a “stay” relative to a series of actions pending in the United States District Court of Illinois (“Illinois Actions”) against the Debtor, Mestek, and Honeywell International, Inc. (“Honeywell”). The Illinois Actions have been described in previous filings in the Commitments and Contingencies Note.

        The Bankruptcy Court has approved an $8,000,000 Debtor-in-Possession (“DIP”) revolving credit facility under which the Company is providing post petition working capital funding to Met-Coil. This credit facility has a first priority lien on the assets of the Debtor, accrues interest at Prime plus 4%, and matures on September 30, 2004. The Company intends to extend the DIP facility upon maturity unless Met-Coil is able to identify a more attractive financing alternative. Advances under the DIP credit facility, net of repayments, through June 30, 2004 have aggregated $2,834,000. Pretax losses recorded by Met-Coil in 2003 are expected to generate income tax savings to Mestek of approximately $4,334,000, which amount has been recorded on Met-Coil’s balance sheet as a reduction of the DIP loan balance payable. As a result, Met-Coil reflects on its balance sheet a net receivable from Mestek included in Other Current Assets of $1,500,000 as of June 30, 2004.

        The Company has received a waiver letter from Bank of America (“BOA”) whereby BOA has agreed to waive, through September 30, 2004, any existing Defaults or Events of Default which may have occurred or currently exist under the Amended and Restated Revolving Loans and Foreign Exchange Facilities Agreement between the Company and Fleet dated July 15, 1997, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”) relating to Met-Coil’s filing of the petition under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.

        The Debtor filed a Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) with the Bankruptcy Court on November 5, 2003 and several amendments subsequent thereto. The Fourth Amended Plan of reorganization was the subject of a recent (July 28, 2004) confirmation hearing before the Bankruptcy Court and is expected to be confirmed shortly, as more fully described in Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies, above.

        As Met-Coil has retained control of its operations as a Debtor in Possession (“DIP”), Mestek has not “deconsolidated” the operations of Met-Coil for accounting purposes. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the related technical literature, the Debtor has established reserves related to the Met-Coil environmental litigation and environmental remediation matters, as more fully described in Note 7. In accordance with SOP 90-7, certain of Met-Coil’s pre-petition liabilities have been reclassified in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements under the heading Liabilities Subject to Compromise.

All of these are difficult to predict, and many are beyond the ability of the Company to control.

        Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are not historical facts but rather reflect the Company’s current expectations concerning future results and events. The words “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “hopes”, “likely”, “will”, and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company (or entities in which the Company has interests), or industry results, to differ materially from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

        Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s view only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. The Company undertakes no obligation to update the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, conditions or circumstances.

OVERVIEW

        The Company derives its revenues primarily from the sales of Company-manufactured products in its HVAC Segment and machinery and repair parts in its Metal Forming Segment. In both segments the sale of service generates a relatively small component of total net sales. Within the HVAC Segment most, but not all, of the products sold involve sheet metal fabrication, cast iron production, and machining or assembly or stainless steel fabrication.

        The Company is not dependent on any one customer in either of its segments for more than 10% of its consolidated revenues, nor does it derive more than 10% of its consolidated revenues internationally.

        The Company’s HVAC Segment reflects the seasonal nature of a company engaged in heating products sales, although the broadening of its product offering over the past 10 years to include cooling products, air handling products and corrugated stainless steel tubing has dampened the seasonal curve of the Segment’s revenue stream.

        The Company’s Metal Forming Segment operates within the highly cyclical capital goods marketplace and reflects the challenges not only with respect to cycling of demands but also the globalization of the customer bases as well as the competitor base, requiring it to seek a more international focus in supply, manufacturing sales and marketing. We operate principally within the North American marketplace. However, we do foresee the need for growth both in sales and production in both Europe and Asia.

        The Company currently employs approximately 2,725 people, primarily in the United States and Canada.

        Fluctuations in the metal commodities market in particular can have and currently are having significant impacts on the Company’s cost structure and may affect profitability with respect to revenues based on committed contracts or derived in markets where pricing to the Company’s customers cannot be readily adjusted.

        The Company operates in highly competitive markets. While many companies, both larger and smaller than we are, sell many of the same products and services, our competitive position is not easily determinable in either of our Segments since no one competitor or group of competitors offers the same product lines through the same channels. Competitors in both of our Segments compete primarily through product quality and performance, price, service (both pre- and post-sale) and technical innovation. The relative importance of these factors varies from product line to product line.

        An important part of the Company’s business strategy is to look for niche areas where larger competitors in the HVAC arena choose not to focus or, in our Metal Forming Segment, where strategic enhancement of product offering can result in a more competitive position in the marketplace, and, through acquisition or product and market development, address these opportunities. As a part of this process, we continually review our stable of companies and product lines, evaluating them with respect to allocation of resources for growth, resuscitation or sale. Our history over the past twenty years has been growth often through acquisition and this process continues, as does the occasional divestiture or closing of a company or facility.

        The strength or weakness in the construction markets directly affects our HVAC business and strength or weakness in the capital goods markets directly affects our Metal Forming business. In 2003 and thus far in 2004, residential construction was and remains strong, institutional construction was and remains flat and industrial/commercial construction was and remains off from prior periods. To the extent that this has been driven by historically low interest rates, any increases in interest rates may adversely affect the volume and profitability of our HVAC business. In the capital goods sector, despite early signs of health, orders for machinery and machine tools remained volatile in 2003, averaging at levels comparable to 2002 but significantly lower than periods prior to 2000. Bookings have increased to date in 2004 resulting in an improved second quarter in 2004 for this Segment relative to the comparable period in 2003.

        For 2004, the Company’s Segment budgets are based upon an overall stability expected in the construction markets, though the mix of residential, commercial, industrial and institutional construction spending may change, and expected continuation of the upturn in capital spending, driven in part by the pent-up demand resulting from deferred maintenance as well as increased manufacturing production utilizing the kind of machinery the Company sells. However, rising commodity prices, especially steel, scrap cast iron, copper, oil and natural gas are expected to contribute to upward inflationary pressures, which may also push interest rates higher. While the Company itself is not highly leveraged and thus the increased cost of capital may not be as significant a factor in the Company’s cost structure as it is in other companies, increases in interest rates could slow the domestic residential construction market or contribute to further declines in the commercial and industrial construction markets, as well as adversely affect the capital goods market recovery. Increased shipping costs and benefits expense (primarily health care) are also expected to have a dampening effect on economic growth, which would have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES

        Financial Reporting Release No. 60, released by the Securities and Exchange Commission, requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements. Note 1 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements includes a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. The following is a brief discussion of the Company’s more significant accounting policies.

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to revenue recognition, accounts receivable valuations, inventory valuations, goodwill valuation, intangible asset valuations, warranty costs, product liability costs, environmental reserves, workers compensation claims reserves, health care claims reserves, investments, and accounting for income taxes and the realization of deferred tax assets. Actual amounts could differ significantly from these estimates.

        Our critical accounting policies and significant estimates and assumptions are described in more detail as follows:

      Environmental Litigation and Remediation Reserves

        As discussed more fully in Note 7 to the Condensed Financial Statements and in Environmental Disclosure below, Mestek and its second-tier subsidiary, Met-Coil Systems Corporation (Met-Coil), are defendants in various environmental litigation matters relating to alleged releases of pollutants by Met-Coil prior to its acquisition by the Company’s Formtek, Inc. subsidiary on June 3, 2000. These matters require the Company to establish estimates related to the outcome of various litigation matters as well as estimates related to soil and groundwater remediation costs, both of which are inherently judgmental and subject to change on an ongoing basis.

      Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts is based primarily on specific analysis of accounts in the receivable portfolio and historical write-off experience. While management believes the allowance to be adequate, if the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

      Product Liability Reserves

The Company has absorbed significantly higher levels of insurance risk subsequent to September 11, 2001 due to the effects of September 11, 2001 on pricing in the commercial insurance marketplace. As a result, the Company must establish estimates relative to the outcome of various product liability and general liability matters which are inherently judgmental and subject to ongoing change.

      Inventory

The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost to purchase and/or manufacture the inventory, principally determined on the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method, or the current estimated market value of the inventory. The Company’s June 30, 2004 and 2003 LIFO reserves, as disclosed in Note 3 to these Condensed Financial Statements, have been estimated at these interim dates in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion 28, Interim Financial Reporting. The Company periodically reviews inventory quantities on hand and records a provision for excess and/or obsolete inventory based primarily on its estimated forecast of product demand, as well as based on historical usage. A significant decrease in demand for the Company’s products or technological changes in the industries in which the Company operates could result in an increase of excess or obsolete inventory quantities on hand, requiring adjustments to the value of the Company’s inventories.

      Revenue Recognition

        The Company’s revenue recognition activities relate almost entirely to the manufacture and sale of heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment and metal forming equipment. Under generally accepted accounting principles, revenues are considered to have been earned when the Company has substantially accomplished what it must do to be entitled to the benefits represented by the revenues. With respect to sales of the Company’s HVAC or metal forming equipment, the following criteria represent preconditions to the recognition of revenue:

      Investments

As discussed more fully in Note 6 to its 2003 Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has certain investments in CareCentric, Inc. (CareCentric) which it has historically accounted for by the equity method. On March 29, 2002, the Company transferred certain voting rights to John E. Reed, its Chairman and CEO, in the context of a refinancing transaction under which both the Company and John E. Reed invested additional monies in CareCentric. As a result of the transfer of votes, the Company determined that it no longer had “significant influence” relative to CareCentric, as defined in APB 18 and EITF 98-13, and, accordingly, adopted the cost method of accounting for its investments in CareCentric subsequent to that date. The Company has evaluated the requirements of FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46), as they relate to its investments in CareCentric, as more fully explained in Note 1 to the accompanying Financial Statements, and determined that CareCentric is not required to be consolidated with the Company.

      Warranty

The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized based upon estimated costs, historical and industry experience, and anticipated in-warranty failure rates. While the Company engages in product quality programs and processes, and significant testing prior to shipment, the Company’s warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, including component failures, and repair or replacement costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates or repair or replacement costs differ from estimates based on historical experience, revisions to the estimated warranty liability may be required.

      Health Care Claim Reserves

        The Company self-insures a substantial portion of the health benefits provided for its employees and maintains reserves in this regard. The Company relies upon a recognized actuarial consulting firm to help it set and maintain these reserves.

      Workers Compensation Claims Reserves

        The Company provides workers compensation coverage principally through commercial insurance carriers using “high deductible” programs, which require the Company to reserve for and pay a high proportion of its workers compensation claims payable. The Company relies upon the expertise of its insurance carriers and its own historical experience in setting the reserves related to these claims.

      Accounting for Income Taxes

        The preparation of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements requires it to estimate its income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates, including those outside the United States which may be subject to certain risks that ordinarily would not be expected in the United States. The income tax accounting process involves estimating its actual current exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as depreciation and equity method gains and losses, for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company must then record a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Significant management judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, its deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or the Company adjusts these estimates in future periods, it may need to adjust its valuation allowance which could materially impact its financial position and results of operations.

Results of Operations

   Three months ended June 30, 2004 vs. June 30, 2003

      HVAC Segment

        Total Revenues in the Company’s HVAC Segment increased 10.9% during the second quarter of 2004 relative to the second quarter of 2003 led principally by improved sales of commercial and residential hydronic heating products and Omega Flex’s TracPipe® product. In 2003, the Company consolidated its Bishopville, South Carolina based King National industrial heating products business into the Company’s Applied Air industrial products business in Dallas, Texas, and substantially completed the consolidation of its Scranton, Pennsylvania based Anemostat East air distribution products manufacturing operations into certain of the Company’s existing air distribution sales, engineering and manufacturing locations. Management believes that overhead savings from these consolidated operations has allowed the King National and Anemostat franchises to operate more competitively in furtherance of the Company’s plan to support and rebuild these established HVAC businesses. During the three months ended June 30, 2004, however, the HVAC Segment incurred incremental expenses associated with these and other shutdown and relocation activities totaling $519,000 which represented costs eligible for “separate line treatment” under FAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities, and which are accounted for accordingly in the accompanying condensed Financial Statements. Revenues from the Hydronics Product Group increased 12.0% during the second quarter of 2004 relative to the second quarter of 2003 from $26,229,000 to $29,380,000, reflecting increased residential and commercial hydronic products sales. Revenues in the Air Distribution and Cooling Products Group were up 6%, reflecting improvements in the relocated Anemostat franchise, among other effects. Revenues in the Gas and Industrial Product Group increased 15%, reflecting principally the growth in Omega Flex’s successful TracPipe® gas piping product, as noted above.

        The segment’s gross profit margins overall were down slightly, from 29.4% in the second quarter of 2003 to 28.6% in the second quarter of 2004. This resulted principally from the effects of inflationary pressures presently effecting copper, steel, cast iron scrap, aluminum and other commodities used in its products, despite the Company’s efforts to raise prices on a timely basis to offset such cost increases.

        Operating profits for the HVAC segment for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were up 71% relative to the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $2.17 million to $3.7 million, reflecting the positive trends described above. The Company continues to focus its efforts on consolidating overhead wherever possible in order to maximize efficiency in its various HVAC manufacturing operations.

      Metal Forming Segment

        Total Revenues in the Company’s Metal Forming Segment increased by 17% during the second quarter of 2004 relative to the second quarter of 2003. Excluding revenues from Engel Industries, Inc., which was acquired in August of 2003, revenues for the Segment were up 5.6% owing principally to contributions from the Segment’s recently established Iowa Rebuilders and Axon business units. A cyclical downturn in demand for many of the Segment’s products, which are used in metal fabricating manufacturing operations continued in 2003 resulting in a backlog that fell to a low of approximately $20 million. The current backlog at June 30, 2004 is approximately $33.0 million, including $2.8 million at the newly acquired Engel Industries up from $28 million at March 31, 2004, including $3.1 million at Engel Industries and up from $21 million at June 30, 2003, not including Engel Industries. Bookings for the second quarter of 2004 were approximately $29.4 million, up 10.5% from the approximately $26.6 million booked in the quarter ended March 30, 2004 and up 51.5% from the approximately $19.4 million booked in the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The 2003 bookings did not include either Engel, which was acquired in August 2003 or Formtek Beijing which opened in February 2004, and included only de minimis booked orders for the other 2003 start up Formtek Metalforming Integration, Axon Electric, and Iowa Rebuilders Inc. The improved sales, bookings, and backlog figures are consistent with stronger manufacturing activity in the domestic economy and consistent with an upturn in the sale of durable goods sector, including the machine tool industry in which the Segment operates.

        Gross profit margins for the Metal Forming Segment improved from 25.7% in the 2003 quarter to 28.7% in the 2004 quarter, reflecting somewhat improved quoting and execution on larger orders and better absorption of burden expense.

        Reflecting the Segment’s higher revenues, “core” operating results for the segment (a “Non-GAAP Financial Measure” discussed below) for the quarter (which exclude environmental litigation and remediation expenses of $468,000 and subsidiary bankruptcy professional fees of $3,581,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 and $16,025,000 in environmental litigation and remediation expense in the quarter ended June 30, 2003) increased from ($422,000) in the 2003 period to $351,000 in the 2004 period. The 2004 core operating profit figure for the quarter includes approximately $359,000 in “start-up” losses in the four entities incorporated in 2003, which are discussed below, in rebuilding, electrical distribution, and China-based assembly. The Segment expects three of these “start-up” entities to be running at a profitable rate by the end of 2004 and the other by early 2005. Also included are approximately $152,000 in expenses related to product development for early stage products in coiled metal processing and specialty forming and fabricating.

        The foregoing core operating income and loss figures, by virtue of the exclusion of the items mentioned, constitute “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” which management believes are useful to investors focused upon ascertaining underlying operating earnings trends. This should not be construed as an alternative to “operating income (loss)” or “net income (loss)” (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or “GAAP”), as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows provided by operating activities (as determined by GAAP), or as a measure of liquidity. The foregoing core operating income and loss figures excluding the anomalous items mentioned are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes they enhance the understanding of the financial performance of a company with substantial anomalous expense items.

The Metal Forming Segment’s Core operating profits (losses) (a “Non-GAAP Financial Measure discussed below) are reconciled with operating profits (losses) determined in accordance with GAAP as follows:

                                                                                      Three months ended

        The Company believes that the mutually reinforcing franchises it has acquired under the Formtek name, including Cooper-Weymouth Peterson, Rowe, CoilMate/Dickerman, Yoder, Krasny-Kaplan, Mentor AGVS, Lockformer, Iowa Precision, Hill Engineering, B&K, and Dahlstrom, as well as the recently acquired Engel Industries, Inc. and the start-ups of two rebuilding operations, Formtek Metalforming Integration and Iowa Rebuilders, an electrical distributor, Axon Electric and a Beijing-based assembly facility, Formtek Machinery (Beijing), will allow it to maintain and expand its core competencies, positioning this Segment very well for the next cyclical upturn in the machine tool industry. The Company expects to continue to spend on sales, marketing and product development initiatives at current rates for the foreseeable future.

        Management believes that the continuing effects of globalization on manufacturing costs have presented the Company with significant opportunities. The Company is pursuing in this regard, for all of its businesses, initiatives in Asia aimed at sourcing machined parts and components for use in its North American factories, and assembling discrete stand-alone equipment and sub-assemblies on a limited basis, with ultimate plans to sell select machinery in Asian markets and throughout the world. Including the losses noted above, the Company expects to invest approximately $1,250,000 prior to the end of 2004 to provide infrastructure and support for these initiatives and an additional $500,000 to support growing inventories and accounts receivable. Formtek’s wholly foreign owned enterprise, Formtek Machinery (Beijing) Co., Ltd, was registered in September of 2003 and began assembly operations of roll forming and metal cutting equipment in a 2,800 square meter facility in the Changping District of Beijing in the first quarter of 2004.

      Consolidated Operations

        For the Company as a whole, Sales, General and Administrative, and Engineering costs, taken together as a percentage of Total Revenues, were reduced slightly from 25.6% of sales in the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 to 23.6% in the three-month period ended June 30, 2004, reflecting principally the effect of improved revenues.

        Core operating income (“a Non-GAAP Financial Measure”) for the Company as a whole for the second quarter of 2004 for the Company as a whole increased 213%, from $2,316,000 in the second quarter of 2003 to $4,929,000 in the second quarter of 2004, excluding the aforementioned environmental litigation and remediation expenses totaling $468,000 in 2004 and $16,025,000 in 2003, Subsidiary Bankruptcy Professional Fees of $3,581,000 in 2004 and Plant Shutdown expenses of $519,000 in 2004 and $711,000 in 2003, reflecting the various factors mentioned above.

        The foregoing core operating income figures, by virtue of the exclusion of the items mentioned, constitute “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” which management believes are useful to investors focused upon ascertaining ongoing operating earnings trends. This should not be construed as an alternative to “operating income” or “net income” (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows provided by operating activities (as determined by GAAP), or as a measure of liquidity. The foregoing core operating income figures excluding the anomalous items mentioned are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes they enhance the understanding of the financial performance of a company with substantial anomalous expense items.

        Income Tax Provision (Benefit), as a percentage of pretax loss, was 51.5% in the three months ended June 30, 2004 reflecting the effects of minimum taxes in certain states which offsets the utilization of tax losses and diminishes the effective rate associated with the income tax benefits recorded in relation to the tax losses recorded in the quarter. Income taxes as a percentage of pretax income for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were 34.9%.

   Six months ended June 30, 2004 vs. June 30, 2003

      HVAC Segment

        Total Revenues in the Company’s HVAC segment increased 5.0% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 relative to the comparable period in 2003 due primarily to improved sales of hydronic heating products and Omega Flex’s very successful TracPipe® gas piping product, as described above. In the second quarter of 2003 the Company completed the consolidation of its Bishopville, South Carolina based King National industrial heating products business into the Company’s Applied Air industrial products business in Dallas, Texas, and substantially completed the consolidation of its Scranton, Pennsylvania based Anemostat East air distribution products manufacturing operations into certain of the Company’s existing air distribution sales, engineering and manufacturing locations. Management believes the overhead savings from these consolidated operations has allowed the King National and Anemostat franchises to operate more competitively in furtherance of the Company’s plan to support and rebuild these established HVAC businesses. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, however, the HVAC segment incurred incremental expenses associated with these shutdown and relocation activities totaling $1,038,000 of which $711,000 represented costs eligible for “separate line treatment” under FAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities, which are accounted for accordingly in the accompanying Financial Statements. During the comparable six-month period in 2004, the Company incurred $855,000 in shutdown and relocation activities eligible for ‘separate line treatment’ under FAS 146 and this amount is accounted for accordingly in the accompanying Financial Statements. The Company continues to focus its efforts on consolidating overhead wherever possible in order to adapt to maximize efficiency in its various HVAC manufacturing operations.

        Operating profits for the HVAC segment for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 were up38.7% relative to the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 from $4,978,000 to $6,902,000, reflecting the positive trends described above.

Metal Forming Segment

        Total Revenues in the Company’s Metal Forming segment increased by 32.7% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 relative to the comparable six-month period ended June 30, 2003. Excluding revenues from Engel Industries, Inc., which was acquired in August of 2003, revenues were up 19.2%, reflecting improved sales at the Segment’s Formtek Cleveland unit, among others, and demonstrating generally the effect of the Company’s continuing efforts to integrate the complimentary franchises now comprising the Metal Forming Segment. A cyclical downturn in demand for the segment products began in 2001 and was exacerbated by the events of September 11, 2001.

        Reflecting the Segment’s higher revenues, ‘core’ operating results (“a Non-GAAP Financial Measure”) for the segment for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 (which exclude environmental litigation and remediation expenses of $687,000 and subsidiary bankruptcy professional fees of $7,023,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 and $17,238,000 in environmental litigation and remediation expense in the six-month period ended June 30, 2003) improved from ($98,000) in the 2003 period to 328,000 in the 2004 period. The 2004 core operating profit figure includes approximately $774,000 in ‘start-up’ losses in the four new entities incorporated in 2003, which are discussed below, in rebuilding, electrical distribution and China-based assembly. The Segment expects three of these ‘start-up’ entities to achieve profitability in 2004 and the other by early 2005. This figure also includes approximately $277,000 in expenses related to product development for early stage products in coiled metal processing and specialty forming and fabricating.

        The foregoing core operating income and loss figures, by virtue of the exclusion of the items mentioned, constitute “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” which management believes are useful to investors focused upon ascertaining underlying operating earnings trends. This should not be construed as an alternative to “operating income (loss)” or “net income (loss)” (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or “GAAP”), as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows provided by operating activities (as determined by GAAP), or as a measure of liquidity. The foregoing core operating income and loss figures excluding the anomalous items mentioned are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes they enhance the understanding of the financial performance of a company with substantial anomalous expense items.

        The Metal Forming Segment’s core operating profits (losses) are reconciled with operating profits (losses) determined in accordance with GAAP as follows:

                                                                                 Six months ended

        The Company believes that the mutually reinforcing franchises it has acquired under the Formtek name, including Cooper-Weymouth Peterson, Rowe, CoilMate/Dickerman, Yoder, Krasny-Kaplan, Mentor AGVS, Lockformer, Iowa Precision, Hill Engineering, B&K, and Dahlstrom, as well as the recently acquired Engel Industries, Inc. and the start-ups of two rebuilding operations, Formtek Metalforming Integration and Iowa Rebuilders, an electrical distributor, Axon Electric and a Beijing-based assembly facility, Formtek Machinery (Beijing), will allow it to maintain and expand its core competencies, positioning this Segment very well for the next cyclical upturn in the machine tool industry. The Company expects to continue to spend on sales, marketing and product development initiatives at current rates for the foreseeable future.

        Management believes that the continuing effects of globalization on manufacturing costs have presented the Company with significant opportunities. The Company is pursuing in this regard, for all of its businesses, initiatives in Asia aimed at sourcing machined parts and components for use in its North American factories, and assembling discrete stand-alone equipment and sub-assemblies on a limited basis, with ultimate plans to sell select machinery in Asian markets and throughout the world. Including the losses noted above, the Company expects to invest approximately $1,250,000 prior to the end of 2004 to provide infrastructure and support for these initiatives and an additional $500,000 to support growing inventories and accounts receivable. Formtek’s wholly owned foreign enterprise, Formtek Machinery (Beijing) Co., Ltd, was registered in September of 2003 and began assembly operations of roll forming and metal cutting equipment in a 2,800 square meter facility in the Changping District of Beijing in the first quarter of 2004.

Consolidated

        For the Company as a whole, Sales, General and Administrative, and Engineering costs, taken together as a percentage of Total Revenues, decreased from 25.6% to 24.5% reflecting the effect of improved revenues.

        Operating income (“a Non-GAAP Financial Measure”) for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 for the Company as a whole, excluding the aforementioned environmental charges of $17,238,000 in 2003 and $687,000 in 2004, and Plant Shutdown expenses of $711,000 in 2003 and $855,000 in 2004, and Subsidiary Bankruptcy Professional Fees of $7,023,000 in 2004, increased 53.7% from $5,244,000 in the 2003 period to $8,059,000 in 2004.

        The foregoing core operating income figures, by virtue of the exclusion of the items mentioned, constitute “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” which management believes are useful to investors focused upon ascertaining ongoing operating earnings trends. This should not be construed as an alternative to “operating income” or “net income” (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, as an alternative to cash flows provided by operating activities (as determined by GAAP), or as a measure of liquidity. The foregoing core operating income figures excluding the anomalous items mentioned are presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes they enhance the understanding of the financial performance of a company with substantial anomalous expense items.

        The Core operating profits (losses) for the Company as a whole are reconciled with operating profits (losses) determined in accordance with GAAP as follows:

                                                                                Six months ended

        Income Tax Expense (Benefit), as a percentage of pretax income (loss), decreased from 34% in the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 to zero in the six-month period ended June 30, 2004, due principally in both cases to the effect of minimum taxes in certain states which diminish the effective rate associated with the income tax benefit recorded in relation to tax losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The Company’s total debt (long-term debt plus current portion of long-term debt) increased in the six-month period ended June 30 of 2004 from $22,449,000 at December 31, 2003 to $32,919,000, at June 30, 2003 reflecting principally the effect of seasonally increased investments in accounts receivable and inventory. Subject to the matters described in Commitments & Contingencies below, management regards the Company’s current capital structure and banking relationships as fully adequate to meet foreseeable future needs. The Company has not paid dividends on its common stock since 1979. The Company remains relatively modestly leveraged with a debt to equity ratio of approximately 35% as of June 30, 2004. As described more fully in Notes 3, 7, and 8, however, the Company expects very shortly to borrow approximately $16,000,000 in connection with the funding of the recently confirmed Met-Coil Reorganization Plan which will significantly effect the Company’s debt structure.

Commitments & Contingencies

        As previously disclosed, the Company is obligated as a guarantor with respect to certain debt of CareCentric, Inc. (formerly Simione Central Holdings, Inc.) to CareCentric’s primary commercial bank, Wainwright Bank & Trust Company, in the amount of $6 million which amount was accrued as of December 31, 2001 and remains on the Company’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2004. The $6 million Wainwright credit line is secured by substantially all of CareCentric’s assets and is presently in the process of being renegotiated. It is the Company’s expectation that its guarantee obligation will be reduced as a result of this process. The balance outstanding under CareCentric’s credit line with Wainwright Bank & Trust Company as of June 30, 2004 was $1,325,000, down from $2,525,000 as of December 31, 2003. CareCentric was “taken private” on September 4, 2003 and is no longer a publicly traded company. The Company’s investments in CareCentric were not materially affected by that transaction.

Environmental Disclosure

        The Company is subject to several legal actions and proceedings in which various monetary claims are asserted. Although no assurances can be given, management, after consultation with its corporate legal department and outside counsel, does not anticipate that any ultimate liability arising out of all such litigation and proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company except as set forth below.

Bankruptcy and Environmental Issues Involving Releases of Hazardous Materials

        As disclosed in previous filings, the Lockformer Company (“Lockformer”), a division of the Company’s second tier subsidiary, Met-Coil Systems Corporation (“Met-Coil”), and Mestek directly (under various legal theories) are defendants in various actions relating to the alleged release and presence of trichloroethylene (“TCE”) contamination on and in the vicinity of Lockformer’s manufacturing facility in Lisle, IL. On August 26, 2003, Met-Coil filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (Case No. 03-12676-MFW). Met-Coil remains in possession of its assets and properties and continues to operate its businesses and manage its properties as a “debtor-in-possession” pursuant to sections 1107(a) and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code.

        Based upon statements made by the Bankruptcy Court in Open Court at the recent July 28, 2004 Confirmation Hearing, management believes that the Bankruptcy Court will shortly confirm the Fourth Amended Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization (the “Proposed Plan”) proposed by Met-Coil and Mestek, as co-proponents, and will recommend to the United States District Court (Del.) that it approve and enter the “channeling injunction” discussed below, and certain related third party releases in favor of, among others, Mestek and its affiliates.

        This Proposed Plan is supported by all major parties in interest in the Met-Coil Chapter 11 case, including the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, the various governmental agencies overseeing the remediation of Met-Coil’s Lisle, Illinois facility and the plaintiffs in various personal injury and property damage cases. The Proposed Plan reflects the consensual agreements reached by Mestek and Met-Coil with representatives of all affected classes of creditors. The Company anticipates that the Proposed Plan will become effective in approximately six to twelve weeks from the date the Bankruptcy Judge confirms the Proposed Plan (which the Company anticipates will occur shortly), upon satisfaction or waiver of all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the Proposed Plan.

        The Proposed Plan provides for the classification of claims against and interests in Met-Coil and provides for the treatment of these classes of claims and interests upon the Amended Plan becoming effective. The Proposed Plan settles the various legal actions which have been commenced against Met-Coil and Mestek with respect to an alleged release of TCE into the soils, groundwater or air in or around Met-Coil’s Lockformer Company facility in Lisle, Illinois. In addition, the Proposed Plan establishes a trust (the “TCE PI Trust”) for the holders of future claims or demands, who reside, resided or may reside in a certain geographic area in the vicinity of the facility in Lisle, Illinois, and who assert personal injury claims in the future. The TCE PI Trust is established to assume all such future personal injury claims and demands and pay and administer such claims for up to 45 years. Upon establishment of such TCE PI Trust, Mestek and its affiliates will be released from any liabilities assumed by the TCE PI Trust for up to 45 years. Pursuant to the Proposed Plan, all such future claims and demands will be “channeled” to the TCE PI Trust and be paid in accordance with the distribution procedures established for such trust. This TCE PI Trust will be administered by an independent trustee, with power to mediate, arbitrate and, if necessary, litigate claims.

        The Company’s Environmental and Litigation Reserve as of the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was approximately $50,236,000, having been established and revised over several fiscal quarters as a result of then ongoing settlement discussions as to amounts that would be required to settle the various claims related to the Met-Coil bankruptcy, and complete environmental remediation and ongoing monitoring. Remediation on the Lockformer site resulted in the expenditure of approximately $441,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2004 and thus the reserve was reduced in the three-month period ended June 30, 2004 to $49,795,000. Management’s estimate of the funding requirements of the Proposed Plan once confirmed, including the TCE Trust requirements discussed above, after application of expected insurance recoveries from existing settlements with historic insurers of the Lockformer facility that become collectable upon or shortly after the effective date of the Proposed Plan, lead management to believe that no additional reserves, beyond those set forth in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2004, are required to be taken, and accordingly, no additions to such reserves are included in the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

        The immediate cash requirements which will require borrowing under the Company’s credit facility upon the Proposed Plan’s becoming effective are estimated at approximately $16,000,000. In addition, letters of credit of approximately $17,000,000 are expected to be required in connection with the funding of the Proposed Plan once confirmed and effective.

        The financial statements contained in this report reflect such reserves included in the caption “Liabilities Subject to Compromise”. These reserves have been established in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board Statement No. 5 and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 92. However, while these reserves represent management’s best estimate of these liabilities, and are based upon known or anticipated claims analysis estimated by various legal, scientific and economic experts, there is no assurance that these reserves will be adequate to meet all potentials claims arising from the environmental contamination at the Lisle, Illinois site. In addition, there can be no assurance that future claims for personal injury or property damage will not be asserted by other plaintiffs against Met-Coil and Mestek with respect to the Lockformer site and facility.

        As additional information and expert opinions become available to management, it may either be able to revise its estimate of the range of exposure, with appropriate revision to reserves taken, or continue to believe that no such better estimate is possible at the time.

      Remediation – Lisle, IL:

        Met-Coil is continuing remediation of the Lockformer facility in Lisle, IL, pursuant to a Work Plan for the site (“on-site remediation”) approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and is awaiting approval of the remedial standards to be achieved by such Work Plan from the IEPA. The IEPA has not agreed to any specific target level of remediation. To date, substantial soil remediation has occurred in areas under and adjacent to the Lisle facility through both soil vapor extraction and electric resistive heating processes. Groundwater remediation remains to be accomplished and a work plan for this is being prepared for submission to regulatory authorities. In the quarter ended June 30, 2004, Met-Coil paid $441,000 in costs related to on-site remediation, and has a remaining reserve of $6,627,000 for future remediation costs as of June 30, 2004.

        As part of the Proposed Plan, Met-Coil and Mestek have committed to the IEPA to hook-up certain residences within a designated area in proximity to the Lockformer facility to public water supply, at an estimated cost of approximately $2,000,000, which is included in the aforementioned $49,795,000 reserve in the accompanying financial statements in the heading “Liabilities Subject to Compromise”, and Mestek has committed to guaranty the remediation obligations of Met-Coil on the Lockformer site for up to $3,000,000 of expense.

        In light of the remaining uncertainties surrounding the effectiveness of the available remediation technologies and the future potential changes in remedial objectives and standards, still further reserves may be needed in the future with respect to the on-site remediation of the Lisle facility. The complexity of aforementioned factors makes it impossible at this time to further estimate any additional costs.

      Other Claims Alleging Releases of Hazardous Materials or Asbestos Related Liability

        The Company is currently a party to approximately 200 asbestos-related lawsuits, and in the past six months has been named in approximately 10 to 15 new such lawsuits each month, primarily in one county in Illinois where numerous asbestos-related actions have been filed against numerous defendants. The Company is concerned about the trend of cases brought in recent months notwithstanding the historical record of dismissals or de minimus settlements.

        Almost all of these suits seek to establish liability against the Company as successor to companies that may have manufactured, sold or distributed asbestos-related products, and who are currently in existence and defending thousands of asbestos related cases, or because the Company currently sells and distributes boilers, an industry that has been historically associated with asbestos-related products. The Company believes it has valid defenses to all of the pending claims and vigorously contests that it is a successor to companies that may have manufactured, sold or distributed any product containing asbestos materials. However, the results of asbestos litigation have been unpredictable, and accordingly, an adverse decision or adverse decisions in these cases, individually or in the aggregate, could materially adversely affect the financial position and results of operation of the Company and could expose the Company to substantial additional asbestos related litigation and the defense costs thereof, which defense costs, because of the sheer number of asbestos claimants and the historical course of the litigation process in this area has the potential to become substantial, though these costs are not capable of estimation at this time. The total requested damages of these cases are over $3 billion. To date, however, the Company has had over 40 asbestos-related cases dismissed without any payment and it settled approximately twenty-three asbestos-related cases for a de minimis value. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to successfully defend or settle any pending litigation.

        In addition to the Lisle, IL site, the Company has been named or contacted by state authorities and/or the EPA regarding the Company’s asserted liability or has otherwise determined it may be required to expend funds for the remediation of certain other sites described below.

        In High Point, NC, the Company has been named as a “Potentially Responsible Party” (PRP) with regard to the clean up of groundwater contamination allegedly due to dumping at a landfill. The Company believes that its activity at the site represented less than one percent of all activity at the site. State authorities have received for review a report on the Remedial Investigation of the site, including a supplemental Remedial Investigation submitted in 2003, a base-line Risk Assessment and a Feasibility Study of the alternative remedial options for treating groundwater contamination at or near the site. The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has not issued its remaining formal comments on these documents, nor has a final remedial alternative yet been selected or approved. The Company continues to participate in a joint defense group to help define and limit its liabilities and may be required to contribute to the remediation of such alleged groundwater contamination. The PRPs anticipate proposing a remedy based upon the use of phytoremediation and engineered wetlands.

        The Company (along with many other corporations) is involved in a PRP action for the remediation of a site in Southington, CT, as a result of the EPA’s preliminary assignment of derivative responsibility for the presence of hazardous materials attributable to two other corporations from whom the Company purchased assets after the hazardous materials had been disposed of at the Southington site. The Company participated as part of a joint defense group in a “de minimis settlement” with the EPA concerning soil remediation at the Southington, CT site, while the issue of further groundwater investigation at the site was postponed by the EPA in 1998, pending the soil remediation. Currently, Monitored Natural Attenuation (MNA) and a landfill cap are being evaluated as remedial alternatives for groundwater contamination at the site. The landfill cap has been installed, but its effectiveness has not yet been determined. Likewise, more study must be performed by the environmental consultant hired by the joint defense group to support the evaluation of the potential for MNA to control future dissolved volatile organic compound migration at this site.

        The Process Recovery Corporation (PRC) of which the Company’s foundry subsidiary and its predecessor corporation Eafco, Inc. were shareholders and customers for disposal of used foundry sand, was notified in 2002 that it had exceeded certain fill parameters of its permit. Since then PRC has ceased operations and expended almost all of its liquid assets. The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) contacted the customer generators of PRC and demanded that they maintain the leachate collection system at the landfill and execute a permitted closure of the landfill. While the Company does not believe that any of the PRC customer generators or shareholders are responsible for closure of the landfill, the Company has nevertheless joined a group of the majority of PRC customers who have agreed voluntarily to fund operation of the PRC leachate collection system on an interim basis. This group is also investigating alternative solutions to the PADEP’s concerns, such as sale or lease to a third party. The Company intends to contest any liability that may be asserted against it to pay for closure of the PRC landfill. But even if the Company should contribute to a closure voluntarily or through some equitable court order, management believes that the cost to the Company for its share of the closure plan, based on calculated tons deposited in the landfill and the current estimate of the closure plan, should be in the range of $100,000 to $240,000.

        A Company subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) that has contracted to sell a surplus facility in Scranton, PA has been notified by the purchaser that a Phase II environmental site assessment reports the presence of PCE in certain soil borings taken on the site of the facility in March 2004. In response to this information, the Subsidiary has filed a Notice of Intent to Remediate the Scranton property with PADEP, and has contracted with an environmental contractor to design and implement field work to delineate the scope of the contamination at the Scranton facility, and ultimately to design and implement a remediation plan for the site. The fieldwork has fully defined the extent of the contamination of subsurface soils at the Scranton site, which indicate that the subsurface soil contamination is contained within the site. The investigation into groundwater contamination is continuing as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and preliminary reports indicate there is some contamination of groundwater at certain levels at the site; however, the hydrogeology of the site is complex, and the Subsidiary expects that further testing will be required by PADEP to characterize the scope of the groundwater contamination. In addition, the Subsidiary has engaged its environmental contractor to evaluate soil vapor exposure pursuant to applicable environmental regulations, and it is expected that soil vapor field-testing will be required. The initial scope of work for the delineation fieldwork is expected not to exceed $75,000, although this amount could increase based on input for additional testing by the relevant regulatory agencies. The cost of the remediation measures required to remove or reduce the levels of contamination at the Scranton site within levels required by applicable law is not quantifiable at this time because the full characterization of the environmental contamination at the site is still being performed; however the Subsidiary has pollution legal liability insurance with policy limits of $10,000,000 covering this site, with a $50,000 deductible. The insurer has accepted coverage of the claim made by the Subsidiary with respect to the Scranton site. The amount of the policy deductible is separately payable by the former owner of the site under the agreement by which the Subsidiary acquired the Scranton facility.

        The Company continues to investigate all of these matters. Given the information presently known, no estimation can be made of any liability which the Company may have with respect to these matters. There can be no assurance, but based on the information presently available to it, the Company does not believe that any of these last four described matters will be material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Warranty Commitments

        Products sold by the Company are covered by various forms of limited warranty with terms and conditions that vary depending upon the product. The limited warranty typically covers the equipment, replacement parts and, in very limited circumstances, labor necessary to satisfy the warranty obligation for a period which is generally the earlier of 12 months from date of installation or 18 months from date of shipment from the Company factory, although some products or product components are warranted for periods ranging from eighteen months to ten years. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranty obligations and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and allowable costs per claim and recoveries from vendors. At least once a quarter the Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Costs to satisfy warranty claims are charged as incurred to the accrued warranty liability.

        Following is a summary of changes in the Company’s product warranty liability for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

FUTURE IMPACT OF KNOWN TRENDS OR UNCERTAINTIES

        The Company’s operations are sensitive to a number of market factors, any one of which could materially adversely affect its results of operations in any given year:

        Construction Activity—The Company’s largest Segment, its Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Segment, is directly affected and its other Segment, Metal Forming, is indirectly affected by commercial construction projects and residential housing starts. Relatively lower interest rates in 2003 and 2004 to date and strong institutional activity have helped maintain a health construction economy. Significant increases in interest rates or reductions in construction activity in future periods, however, could be expected to adversely affect the Company’s revenues, possibly materially.

        Manufacturing Activity—The Company’s Metal Forming Segment, as a manufacturer of capital goods used in other manufacturing processes, is subject to significant cyclicality based upon factory utilization. The Company’s Metal Forming Segment provides equipment used to hold, uncoil, straighten, form, bend, cut, and otherwise handle metal used in manufacturing operations, all activities likely to be adversely affected in recessionary periods. The level of manufacturing activity in North America in the automotive, steel processing, metal furniture, and stamping industries, is particularly relevant to this Segment since its products are typically purchased to upgrade or expand existing equipment or facilities. Expectations of future business activity are also particularly relevant. Activity in this Segment has been affected in the recent past by the events of September 11, 2001, and may be affected significantly in the future by the effects of globalization which impact both the markets for its products, the competitors it faces in such markets and potentially the cost and availability of its key components.

        Credit Availability—Although interest rates trended lower in 2003 and have increased only modestly thus far in 2004, reflecting the Federal Reserve’s evolving monetary policy during this period, credit availability is critical to the Company and its customer base. The Company’s customer base includes many small to medium sized businesses, who are particularly dependent upon available bank lines of credit. In addition, recent operating losses associated with a subsidiary’s bankruptcy and environmental liabilities could negatively impact the terms upon which the Company itself obtains credit in the future.

        Technological Changes—Although the HVAC industry has historically been impacted by technology changes in a relatively incremental manner, it cannot be discounted that radical changes—such as might be suggested by fuel cell technology, burner technology and/or other developing technologies—could materially adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and/or financial position in the future.

        Environmental Laws Affecting Operations and Product Design— The Company is subject to numerous laws and regulations that govern the discharge and disposal of materials into the environment. The Company’s operations and its HVAC products that involve combustion, refrigeration, air conditioning and related technologies as currently designed and applied entail the risk of future noncompliance with the evolving landscape of environmental laws regulations and industry standards. The cost of complying with the various environmental laws regulations and industry standards is likely to increase over time, and there can be no assurance that the cost of compliance, including changes to manufacturing processes and design changes to current HVAC product offerings that involve the creation of carbon dioxide or other currently unregulated compounds emitted in atmospheric combustion, or efficiency standards, will not over the long-term and in the future have a material adverse affect on the Company’s results of operations.

        Weather Conditions—The Company’s core HVAC Segment manufactures heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment with heating products representing the bulk of the Segment’s revenues. As such, the demand for its products depends upon colder weather and benefits from extreme cold. Severe climatic changes, such as those suggested by the “global warming” phenomenon, could over time adversely affect the Company’s results of operation and financial position.

        Purchasing Practices—It has been the Company’s policy in recent years to aggregate purchase volumes for high value commodities with fewer vendors to achieve maximum cost reductions while maintaining quality and service. This policy has been effective in reducing costs but has introduced additional risk which could potentially result in short-term supply disruptions or cost increases from time to time in the future.

        Supply Disruptions and Commodity Risks—The Company uses a wide variety of materials in the manufacture of its products, such as copper, aluminum and steel, as well as electrical and mechanical components, controls, motors and other products. In connection with the purchase of major commodities, principally copper, stainless steel and aluminum for manufacturing requirements, the Company enters into commodity forward agreements to effectively hedge the cost of the commodity. This forward approach is done for a portion of the Company’s requirements, while the balance of the transactions required for these commodities are conducted in the cash or “spot” market. The forward agreements require the Company to accept delivery of the commodity in the quantities committed, at the agreed upon forward price, and within the timeframe specified. The cash or “spot” market transactions are executed at the Company’s discretion and at the current market prices. In addition to the raw material cost strategy described above, the Company enters into fixed pricing agreements for the fabrication charges necessary to convert these commodities into useable product. Management believes at present that it has adequate sources of supply for its raw materials and components (subject to the risks described above under Purchasing Practices) and has historically not had significant difficulty in obtaining the raw materials, component parts or finished goods from its suppliers. No industry Segment of the Company is dependent on a single supplier, the loss of which would have a material adverse effect on its business.

        Interest Rate Sensitivity—The Company’s borrowings are largely Libor or Prime Rate based. The Company believes that a 100 basis-point increase in its cost of funds would not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements taken as a whole. Interest rates are nonetheless significant to the Company as a participant in the construction and capital goods industries and particularly in light of the increased borrowings planned in connection with the resolution of the Met-Coil bankruptcy. (See Notes 3, 7 and 8.) (See Construction Activity, Manufacturing Activity and Credit Availability above.)

        Acquisition Integration – The Company has historically grown through acquisition. Acquisitions often involve risks of integration with the parent company and may present managerial and operational challenges, which can have adverse effects on results of operations, typically when charges result from impairment of goodwill or indefinite lived intangibles or cessation of business operations from consolidations or otherwise. Acquisition integration also often requires considerable diversion of management attention, difficulty in integrating management resource planning and financial control systems, increased risk of contingent or unknown liabilities and potential disputes with sellers of the acquired companies. Expected cost savings from strategic acquisitions may not be realized or achieved within the timeframe initially expected.

        Retention of Qualified Personnel – The Company does not operate with multiple levels of management. It is relatively “flat” organizationally and while we perceive this as a strength overall, it does subject the Company to the risks associated with the separation from the Company of critical managers for whatever reason. From time to time, there may be a shortage of skilled labor, which may make it more difficult and expensive for the Company to attract and retain qualified employees.

        Inflation – A substantial portion of the Company’s inventory costs are represented by commodities—copper, steel and aluminum—which in times of high economic activity, as evidenced by the ongoing affect of “globalization” on the world economy, can be subject to significant price inflation. The Company’s ability to recover such cost increases through pricing changes is uncertain and erosion of margins during such periods is a significant risk.

Item 3. — Quantitative and Qualitative Information about Market Risks

        The Company does not engage in the purchase or trading of market risk sensitive instruments other than with respect to a single interest rate swap transaction entered into on February 6, 2004 whereby the Company has obtained fixed interest rate protection for three years for approximately $14,000,000 of its bank debt. The Company does not presently have any positions with respect to hedge transactions such as forward contracts relating to currency fluctuations. No market risk sensitive instruments are held for speculative or trading purposes.

Item 2 – Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds

        In 2004, the Company continued its program of selective ‘open market’ purchases acquiring 62,800 shares of its common stock in the three-month period ending June 30, 2004 at an average cost per share of approximately $16.21. The Company has additionally acquired 49,300 shares in the period from July 1, 2004 through August 10, 2004 at an average cost of $16.61 per share. No shares were acquired in the comparable periods in 2003. All such shares were accounted for as treasury shares.
