The Company conducts its operations exclusively through its subsidiaries.
Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
annual results of operations.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kinetek,
Inc. and its subsidiaries. Material intercompany transactions and balances are

On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards, No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". As a result, the
Company recorded a non-cash pretax and after-tax charge of $21,992, which has
been shown as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.
6. Business Segment Information
See Part 1 "Financial Information" - Item 2 "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for the Company's
business segment disclosures. There have been no changes from the Company's
December 31, 2002 consolidated financial statements with respect to
segmentation or the measurement of segment profit.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The following discussion and analysis of the Company's results of operations
and of its liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and the related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in
this Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The statement regarding the Company in this
document that are not historical in nature, particularly those that utilize
terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "likely," expects,"
"anticipates," "estimates," "believes" or "plans," or comparable terminology,
are forward-looking statements based on current expectations about future
events, which the Company has derived from information currently available.
These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and
uncertainties that may cause our results to be materially different from
results implied in such forward-looking statements. Those risks include, among
others, risks associated with the industry in which the Company operates, the
dependence on senior management, maintaining sufficient working capital
financing, competitive pressures, general economic conditions and a softening
of consumer acceptance of the Company's products leading to a decrease in
anticipated revenue and gross profit margins.
Summary financial information included in the financial statements of the
Company is as follows:

Consolidated Results of Operations
Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were $71.3 million, an
increase of $3.1 million, or 4.5% from the same period in 2002. Sales of the
Company's Motors segment increased $2.9 million, or 6.0% for the quarter.
Sales of subfractional motor products increased 7.3%, led by strong demand for
general business motor products (such as those used in restaurant, lottery and
medical applications). Sales of fractional and integral motor products
increased 5.1%, driven by the addition of sales by the Kinetek De Sheng joint
venture "KDS" ($2.3 million), and by the impact of Euro currency translation
on sales by FIR, which resulted in a $1.3 million increase in dollar sales.
These increases in sales of fractional and integral motor products were
partially offset by lower demand for products sold in the U.S., principally
for those used in material handling and golf cart end markets. Demand for
products in the U.S. floor care market and all markets in Europe was
essentially flat with the first quarter of 2002. Sales of the Company's
Controls segment increased $0.2 million, or 0.8%, over 2002 results. This
resulted from a $0.6 million increase in sales of conveyor controls driven by
share gains, offset by a $0.4 million decrease in elevator controls due to
general market sluggishness.
Total operating income for the first quarter of 2003 was $8.8 million, a
decline of $0.9 million, or 9.3% from the same quarter of the previous year.
Operating income for the first three months of 2003 in the Motors segment was
$9.3 million, which was $0.2 million, or 1.7%, lower than in the same period
of 2002. Operating income for the Controls segment was $2.7 million, which was
$0.1 million, or 4.3% higher than in 2002's first quarter. Total Company gross
margin was $24.9 million for the quarter, representing an increase of $0.4
million, or 1.5%, from the same period of 2002. The increased gross margin was
due mainly to the variances in sales discussed above. Gross margin was 34.9%
of sales in 2003, compared to 35.9% of sales in 2002. The decline in gross
margin as a percentage of sales is attributable to the addition of the sales
of KDS, where profitability is much lower than in the Company's other
businesses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $13.5
million for the three-month period, an increase of $1.0 million, or 8.1%, from
the same period in 2002. This increase is due to increases in unallocated
corporate overhead of $0.8 million, and the addition of the SG&A of KDS in the
amount of $0.4 million. These increases were partially offset by modestly
lower SG&A in the Company's other business units.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In general, the Company requires liquidity for working capital, capital
expenditures, interest, taxes, debt repayment and its acquisition strategy. Of
primary importance are the Company's working capital requirements, which
increase whenever the Company experiences strong incremental demand or
geographical expansion. The Company expects to satisfy its liquidity
requirements through a combination of funds generated from operating
activities and the funds available under its revolving credit facility.
Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2003 was zero, compared to $8.6 million
provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2002.
The decrease is due primarily to the Company's net loss before cumulative
effort of accounting change for the quarter, which was $3.1 million
unfavorable to the net income reported in 2002, and to increased accounts
receivable during the 2003 quarter, which was $3.3 million larger than the
prior year's increase.
10
Investing activities. In the first quarter of 2003, the Company made $1.0
million in payments for capital expenditures.
Financing activities. The Company is party to a Credit Agreement under which
the Company is able to borrow up to approximately $35.0 million to fund
acquisitions and provide working capital, and for other general corporate
purposes. Borrowings are secured by the stock and substantially all of the
assets of the Company. As of May 13, 2003, the Company has approximately $22.5
million of available funds under this Credit Agreement.
The Company expects its principal sources of liquidity to be from its operating
activities and funding from the credit facility. The Company further expects
that these sources will enable it to meet its cash requirements for working
capital, capital expenditures, interest, taxes, and debt repayment for at least
the next 12 months.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's debt obligations are primarily fixed-rate in nature and, as
such, are not sensitive to changes in interest rates. At December 31, 2002 the
Company had no variable rate debt outstanding.
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency
exchange rates, including fluctuations in the functional currency of foreign
operations. The functional currency of operations outside the United States is
the respective local currency. Foreign currency translation effects are
included in accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholder's equity.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and Rule 13a-14 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") promulgated there under, our
chairman and chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the
date of the filing of this report (the "Evaluation Date") with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Based on such evaluation, our chairman and chief
financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of the Evaluation Date to ensure that information required
to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in SEC rules and forms.
There have been no significant changes in the internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls subsequent
to the date of their most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions
with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
