PART I

Item 1. Business.

(a) General Development of Business.

The Company, a Delaware corporation, was incorporated in 1942.
During the past five years, the primary businesses of Registrant have been:

(i) The development, manufacture and sale of PEM(R)
self-clinching and broaching fasteners and automatic insertion equipment
for such fasteners sold under the name PEMSERTER(R), and

(ii) The development, manufacture and sale through
Registrant's Pittman Division of permanent magnet field, brushcommutated direct
current electric motors under the Pittman(R) and Pitmo(R) trademarks, and
electronically commutated brushless direct current servomotors and controls
under the Elcom(R) trademark.

Self-clinching fasteners, which become a permanent part of the
material to which they are attached, provide permanent threads in sheet metal
materials too thin for threading. Broaching fasteners provide permanent threads
in non-ductile materials such as plastics and printed circuit boards.

Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context otherwise
requires, the term Registrant includes Registrant's wholly owned subsidiaries.

There were no significant developments in Registrant's business
during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.

-1-






(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments.

The answer to this Item is incorporated by reference to
Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements "Financial Reporting
for Segments of the Company" on pages 17 and 18 of Registrant's 1995 Annual
Report to Stockholders which is included as Exhibit (13) to this Form 10-K
Report.

(c) Narrative Description of Business.

The manufacture and sale of (i) self-clinching and
broaching fasteners and plastic inserts and (ii) direct current electric motors
are Registrant's only lines of business. The following table sets forth
information with respect to the percentage of total sales attributable to each
of Registrant's principal products which accounted for 10% or more of
consolidated revenues in each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 1993, 1994
and 1995:

Percentage of Total Sales
-------------------------
Year Ended Electric
December 31 Fasteners Motors
- ----------- --------- ------

1993 77% 23%
1994 79% 21%
1995 80% 20%

The products of Registrant described in Item 1(a) are marketed
primarily through independent manufacturers' representatives and, in the case of
fasteners and inserts, also by authorized distributors.

During the year ended December 31, 1995, conditions in the
domestic market for fasteners continued to be highly competitive. It is not
possible to determine with accuracy the relative

-2-






competitive position of Registrant in the market for self-clinching, broaching
and insert fasteners. Registrant believes that it has maintained its market
share during 1995. On the basis of reports from its sales representatives and
customers, Registrant believes that it is the principal manufacturer and seller
of self-clinching, broaching and insert fasteners in the United States and that
it offers a broader range of these products than any of its competitors.
Approximately ten other companies are known to be competing with Registrant in
the manufacture and sale of such fasteners. Some of Registrant's competitors
also manufacture products other than self-clinching, broaching and insert
fasteners.

Registrant also believes the Pittman Division maintained its
competitive position in the electric motor market in 1995.

Among Registrant's principal customers for fasteners and
PEMSERTERS(R) are manufacturers of business machines, electronic and
communications equipment, electrical equipment, industrial controls
instrumentation, vending machines, automotive subcontractors and other
fabricated metal products. The principal customers for the direct current
electric motors and servomotors are manufacturers of automated production
equipment, instruments, computer peripherals, business machines and medical
equipment. In the opinion of Registrant, no material part of its business is
dependent upon a single customer or a few customers, the loss of any one or more
of which would have a material adverse effect on the business of Registrant.
However, sales of fasteners to one of Registrant's authorized distributors
totalled approximately $14,322,000 for the

-3-






year ended December 31, 1993, $16,554,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994
and $20,854,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995, or approximately 14.2%,
13.6% and 14.8%, respectively, of Registrant's consolidated net sales in such
years.

As of December 31, 1995, Registrant had an order backlog of
$70,364,000, compared with $41,902,000 as of December 31, 1994. Registrant
estimates that substantially all of its backlog as of December 31, 1995 will be
shipped during its fiscal year ending December 31, 1996.

The raw materials used by Registrant are generally available in
adequate supply.

Registrant holds a number of patents, and has patent applications
pending, in the United States and various foreign countries. Management
believes, however, that Registrant's business is not materially dependent on any
patent or group of patents. The principal trademarks of Registrant are
registered in the United States and various foreign countries.

Research and development is carried on by the operating personnel
of Registrant on a continuing basis. The amounts expended for research and
development for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 were
approximately $1,161,000, 1,136,000 and $1,460,000, respectively.

Registrant believes that compliance with federal, state and local
laws and regulations that have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge
of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of
the environment, will not

-4-






have a material adverse effect upon the earnings or competitive
position of Registrant.

As of December 31, 1995, 1,211 persons were employed by
Registrant, 123 more than were employed as of December 31, 1994.

Registrant does not consider its business to be seasonal in any
material respect, nor is any material portion of Registrant's business subject
to the renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts at the election of
the Government.

(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic
Operations and Export Sales.

The answer to this Item is incorporated by reference to Note 10
"Financial Reporting for Segments of the Company" on pages 17 and 18 of
Registrant's 1995 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is included as Exhibit
(13) to this Form 10-K. Also, all foreign sales except for those of PEM
International, Ltd. are sold F.O.B., Registrant's factory, payable in U.S.
dollars. Sales in the United Kingdom and Western Europe are made through
Registrant's wholly owned subsidiary, PEM International, Ltd. and are
denominated in pounds sterling. All foreign sales are subject to special risks
of exchange controls and restrictions on the repatriation of funds and also may
be affected by the imposition or increase of taxes and/or tariffs and
international instability.

Item 2. Properties.

As of December 31, 1995, Registrant's principal plants and
offices, all of which were owned by it, were as follows:

-5-

Danboro facility for increased manufacturing capacity and office space. This
addition is expected to be completed by June 1996. Registrant also has purchased
a 16.3 acre commercial plot in Winston-Salem, N.C. Registrant is planning to
build a 120,000 square foot building at this location and will then sell its
current building and site in North Carolina. This new facility is scheduled for
completion by late 1996.

Registrant carries fire, casualty, business interruption and
public liability insurance for all of its facilities in amounts which are deemed
adequate.
