cash dividends of $0.09 per share payable on April 30 and July 31, 2002
to stockholders of record on April 16 and July 17, 2002, respectfully.
Preferred and Common Stock
On April 23, 2002, the shareholders approved an amendment of the
corporate charter reducing the number of shares of preferred stock the
Company is authorized to issue from 5,000,000 to 100 and reducing the
number of shares of common stock the Company is authorized to issue from
40,000,000 to 10,000,000.
Treasury Stock
In 1996, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase up to
200,000 of the Company's common shares. At the July 2000 and January
2001 Board of Director's meetings, the directors of TB Wood's expanded
this share repurchase program by authorizing the repurchase of up to an
additional 100,000 and 200,000 shares, respectively, of TB Wood's stock.
These purchases are subject to certain business and market conditions.
At June 28, 2002 the cumulative number of treasury shares purchased
under this authorization was 497,936. Year to date, the number of
treasury shares issued to employees under the stock purchase plans was
5,288 and under the 401-K retirement plan was 6,603. As of June 28,
2002, 408,460 shares were held in treasury at cost.

5. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by
the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average shares
and common equivalent shares if dilutive. The computation of weighted
average shares outstanding is as follows:

6. Business Segment Information
The Company's reportable segments are business units that manufacture
and market separate and distinct products and are managed separately
because each business requires different processes, technologies and
marketing strategies.

7. Goodwill
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141 Business
Combinations, that was effective July 2001 and No. 142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets" effective the beginning of fiscal year 2002. SFAS
No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001
to be accounted for using the purchase method. SFAS No. 142 requires that
goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life not be
amortized. Instead of amortizing goodwill and intangible assets deemed to
have an indefinite life, the statement requires a test for impairment to
be performed annually, or immediately if conditions indicate that such an
impairment could exist. The Company adopted this statement effective
December 29, 2001 (beginning of Fiscal 2002). As a result of adopting SFAS
No. 142, the Company will no longer record goodwill amortization of
approximately $226 ($177 after income tax) per year.
Using the fair value approach, the Company performed the first annual
impairment tests required by SFAS 142 during the first quarter of fiscal
2002. Based upon results of the first phase of these tests, it appeared
that goodwill related to the Company's North American Electronics
reporting unit may be impaired. As a result, the second phase of the tests
required by SFAS 142 on a fair value approach for the North American
Electronics reporting unit was performed. In accordance with SFAS 142,
once impairment is determined at a reporting unit, the amount of goodwill
impairment is determined based upon what the balance of goodwill would
have been if the purchase accounting method prescribed by SFAS 141 were
applied at the date of impairment. Under SFAS 142, if the carrying amount
of goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss must be recognized
in an amount equal to that excess. Once the impairment loss is recognized,
the adjusted carrying amount of the goodwill will be its new accounting
basis. This second phase of the impairment evaluation determined that
impairment had occurred, as a result of which an impairment loss of $4,453
($2,846 net of the income taxes), has been recognized as a cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle as of the beginning of fiscal
2002 as prescribed by SFAS 142.
8. Restructuring
As part of its ongoing efforts to reduce costs in the current business
environment, the Company closed its Canadian manufacturing operations
effective January 31, 2002, and transferred certain of its operations to
its new Mexican plant opened in 2001. As a result of the closure of its
Canadian manufacturing operations affecting 28 people, restructuring
charges related to severance and closure in the amount of $275 was
recorded as an expense during the first quarter 2002.
9. Acquisition of Minority Interest
As reported in the Company's 10-K filed for fiscal 2001, The Electron Corp
("Electron"), the minority partner in a joint venture established to
manufacture and market belted drive products filed for bankruptcy in late
2001 under Chapter 11 (Reorganization) of the US Bankruptcy Code. In
February 2002 Electron abandoned certain non-cash assets that included
Electron's minority interest in the joint venture to a bank which was a
secured creditor. Subsequently Electron's reorganization proceeding was
converted to Chapter 7 (Liquidation). In April 2002 the Company reached an
agreement to purchase Electron's minority interest in the joint venture,
including the patterns, tooling and intellectual property that Electron
used to manufacture castings for the joint venture from the bank for the
sum of $3,230,000 plus the assumption of income tax liabilities of
$20,000. The Company did not recognize any gain or loss from this purchase
and the transaction will not have a material impact upon its business
operations. This purchase closed on July 8, 2002; on which date the
Company used borrowings under its US revolving credit facility to finance
this transaction. At June 28, 2002, the $3,230,000 purchase price is
included in accounts payable.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
OVERVIEW
The general slowdown in the worldwide manufacturing sector continued in
the second quarter of 2002. The Company continued its efforts to reduce costs
that it believes will enable it to more successfully operate in the current
environment. These cost reduction measures include, but are not limited to,
continued strict cost controls on all discretionary spending, the reduction or
elimination of certain employee positions, shorter workweeks in specific areas
to match output to customer demands, and selecting component vendors offering
lower costs.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (in thousands, except per share amounts)
The Company posted net sales for the second quarter 2002 of $27,936,
compared to $28,338 for the second quarter 2001, a decrease of 1.4 %. Year to
date net sales of the Company for 2002 were $54,858 which is $3,428 lower than
net sales for the same period in 2001.
Mechanical Business net sales for the second quarter of $18,176 were
$367 lower than net sales of $18,543 for the second quarter of 2001. For the
first six months of 2002, Mechanical Business net sales were $35,083 compared to
$38,134 for same period in 2001 or a reduction of 8%. The sales decline mainly
occurred in the belted drive product lines, driven by the general industrial
slowdown.
Electronics Business net sales for the second quarter of 2002 were
$9,760, a $35 decrease from net sales of $9,795 for the second quarter of 2001.
For the first six months of 2002, Electronics Business net sales were $19,775
compared to $20,152 for same period in 2001, or a reduction of 1.9%. The
continued low level of capital expenditures by the man-made fibers industry was
the principal reason for the sales decline.
Company cost of sales ("COS") in the second quarter 2002 was $19,033
compared to $18,742 for the same period last year. As a percent of sales, COS
was 68.1% for the second quarter 2002, an increase of two percentage points from
2001's second quarter COS of 66.1%. Year to date, COS for the Company was
$37,281 or 68.0% of sales compared to $38,095 or 65.4% of sales for same period
in 2001.
During the first quarter 2002, the Company closed its Canadian
mechanical manufacturing operations and transferred certain operations to its
new Mexican plant that opened in 2001. As a result of the closure of its
Canadian manufacturing operations, restructuring charges related to severance
and closure costs in the amount of $275 were recorded as a COS expense during
the first quarter 2002. The Company has increased production at the plant in
Mexico, but the costs associated with the start up have negatively impacted cost
of goods sold.
Mechanical Business COS of $12,438 in the second quarter 2002 was $174
higher than COS of $12,264 in the second quarter 2001. As a percent of sales for
the second quarter 2002, Mechanical Business reported COS of 68.4%, an increase
of 2.3 percentage points from 66.1% in the prior year. Year to date, 2002 COS
for Mechanical Business was $24,116 or 68.7% of sales compared to $24,702 or
64.8% of sales for same period in 2001. The increased COS percentage to sales
resulted from reduced fixed expense absorption from inventory reduction and
continued costs of starting up the Mexican plant.
Electronics Business COS for the second quarter 2002 was $6,595, a $117
increase from COS of $6,478 for the same quarter of 2001. As a percent of sales
for the second quarter 2002 versus the second quarter 2001, Electronics Business
reported COS of 67.6% for 2002, up 1.5 percentage points from 66.1% in the prior
year. Year to date, 2002, COS for Electronics Business was $13,164 or 66.6% of
sales compared to $13,393 or 66.5% of sales for same period in 2001. The
principal reason for the higher COS percentage was reduced fixed expense
absorption from inventory reduction.
10
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the second
quarter 2002 were $7,659 compared to $7,751 for the second quarter 2001, a
decrease of $92, or 1.2%. SG&A, as a percent of sales, was 27.4% for both the
second quarter of 2002 and 2001. Year to date, 2002, SG&A was $15,266 or 27.8%
of sales compared to $16,341 or 28.0% of sales for same period in 2001. The
major reasons for the change in absolute dollars were the reduced variable costs
caused by the lower sales volume and lower headcount.
Operating income after Minority Interest for the Company was $1,254 for
the second quarter 2002, or 4.5% as a percent of sales, and $276 lower than
second quarter 2001 income from operations of $1,530, which was 5.4% of sales.
This reduction was caused primarily by the lower sales volume leading to the
decreased absorption of fixed expenses from lower inventory and production, and
costs associated with the start up of the new Mexican plant. Offsetting the
above reduction was the cessation of the Company's joint venture with The
Electron Corp as of the end of the Company's first quarter that had the effect
of eliminating Electron's participation in the joint venture which in turn
increased operating income attributable to the Company's interest in the joint
venture operations. Further, effective December 29, 2001 (beginning of fiscal
2002), the Company adopted SFAS 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." As a
result of the adoption the Company ceased the amortization of goodwill. During
the second quarter of 2001 the Company recognized $45 of goodwill amortization
net of income tax.
After six months of 2002, operating income was $2,159 or 3.9% of sales,
compared to $3,179 or 5.5% of sales for same period of 2001. The principal
reasons for the period change were lower sales volume leading to reduced
absorption of fixed expenses, closure of the Canadian manufacturing operation
and start up of the new plant in Mexico, offset by the discontinuance of the
Company's joint venture with The Electron Corp, which resulted in a year to date
expense of $152 as compared to $671 for the first six months of 2001, and the
discontinuance of the amortization of goodwill in 2002, while amortization of
goodwill was $90 net of income tax for the first six months of 2001.
Other expense for the second quarter 2002 was $197, compared to other
income of $199 for the same period last year. Interest expense, a component of
other expense, for the Company was $217 in the second quarter of 2002, a $183
decrease from $400 of interest expense in the second quarter of 2001. The
Company's lower debt levels and the reduction of interest rates since the second
quarter of 2001 were the primary reasons for this lower interest expense to the
Company. Other income for the second quarter of 2001 included a $617 gain on the
sale of the Elk Grove Village warehouse. Year to date 2002, other expense was
$418 compared to $277 for same period of 2001. The principal reason for the $141
increase was the nonreoccurance of the gain from the sale of the Elk Grove
Village warehouse in 2001.
Income before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle
for the impairment of goodwill in the second quarter 2002 was $573, or $0.11 per
diluted share, $499 lower than the $1,072 or $0.20 per diluted share a year ago.
Year to date 2002, income before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle for the impairment of goodwill was $996 or $0.19 per diluted share,
$803 lower than the $1,799, or $0.33 per diluted share, for same period last
year.
The effective income tax rate increased for second quarter and year to
date for fiscal 2002 due to the fact that no income tax benefit was recognized
for the loss being incurred in Mexico as a result of the start up of a new
factory. It is anticipated that this loss will be carried forward and offset
against future income at which point an income tax benefit will be realized.
11
As a result of the adoption of SFAS 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets" the Company recognized an impairment charge in the amount of $4,453
($2,846 net of income taxes) related to the goodwill associated with its North
American Electronics reporting unit during the first quarter of 2002. This
charge is reflected as a cumulative effect of a change of accounting principle
as directed by SFAS 142. No similar charges were recorded during the first
quarter of 2001 or during the second quarters of 2002 or 2001. As a result of
the impairment charge for goodwill in the first quarter of 2002, the net loss
realized for 2002 to date was $(1,850) or $(0.35) per diluted share as compared
to net income for the same period of 2001 that was $1,799 or $0.33 per share.
Net Income for the second quarter of 2002 was $573, or $0.11 per share compared
to $1,072 or $0.20 per share for the second quarter of 2001.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (in thousands)
Working Capital at June 28, 2002 was $18,335, 28% below the $25,472 at
December 28, 2001. The decrease was due primarily to decreases in inventory and
an increase in accounts payable resulting from the acquisition of the minority
interest in the Company's former joint venture. Current ratio was 1.8:1 at June
28, 2002 and 2.5:1 at December 28, 2001.
Outstanding long-term debt decreased $4,412, to $23,390 at June 28,
2002 compared to $27,802 at year-end 2001. Debt was comprised of $5,285 in
tax-exempt revenue bonds, $18,100 in debt under the Company's $52,500 unsecured
United States revolving credit facility (the "Facility"), and $5 in capitalized
leases. The Company's revolving credit agreement, which matures in October 2003,
was recently amended to provide additional flexibility under certain of the
financial covenants. At June 28, 2002, after taking into consideration $6,195 of
outstanding standby letters of credit, the Company had approximately $28,205 of
available borrowing capacity under the Facility. The Company's annual interest
rate as of June 28, 2002 on the Facility was 3.22%. On July 8, 2002, the Company
borrowed $3,230,000 under this Facility to effect its purchase of The Electron's
Corp.'s minority interest in a joint venture with the Company from a receiver
that was the holder in due course of this interest.
The Company's cash flows from operations in year to date 2002 were
$7,024, a $893, increase from the year to date 2001. The Company believes that
the combination of cash generated by operations, available borrowing capacity
and the Company's ability to obtain additional long-term indebtedness is
adequate to finance the Company's operations for the foreseeable future.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect
management's more significant judgements and estimates used in the preparation
of its Consolidated Financial Statements. For a detailed discussion on the
application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 1 in the 2001
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounts receivables: The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts,
discounts and claims resulting from the inability of customers to make required
payments, projected cash discounts to be taken in the month following the end of
the accounting period, and any claims customers may have for merchandise. If the
financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment
of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Product Warranty: Warranty reserve and allowance for product returns is
established based upon management's best estimate of the amounts necessary to
settle future and existing claims on products sold as of the balance sheet date.
12
While management believes the warranty reserve and allowance for product returns
is adequate and that judgement applied is appropriate based upon historical
experience for these items, actual amounts determined to be due and payable
would differ and additional allowances may be required.
Inventory: The Company writes down inventory for estimated obsolescence or
unmarketable inventory equal to the differences between the cost of the
inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future
demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable
than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be
required.
Long-Lived Assets: The Company periodically evaluates the realizable value of
long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, relying on a number
of factors including operating results, budgets, economic projections and
anticipated future cash flows.
Acquired Intangibles: The Company's past business acquisitions resulted in the
recognition of goodwill and other intangible assets, which effect the amount of
future period amortization expense and possible impairment expenses that the
Company will incur. The determination of the value of such intangible assets
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements.
IMPACT OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board Issued SFAS No. 141 "Business
Combinations" that was effective July 2001, and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" effective for the Company at the beginning of its fiscal year
2002. SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30,
2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method. SFAS No. 142 requires that
goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life not be
amortized. Instead of amortizing goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have
an indefinite life, the statement requires an annual test for impairment, or
immediately if conditions indicate that such an impairment could exist. The
Company adopted this statement effective December 29, 2001 (beginning of Fiscal
2002). As a result of adopting SFAS No. 142, the Company will no longer record
goodwill amortization of approximately $226 ($177 after income tax) per year.
The following table provides the comparable effects of adoption of SFAS
142 for the six-month periods ended June 28, 2002 and June 29, 2001.

===========================
Using the fair value approach, the Company performed the first annual
impairment tests required by SFAS 142. Based upon results of the first phase of
these tests, it appeared that goodwill related to the Company's North American
Electronics reporting unit may be impaired. As a result the second phase of the
tests required by SFAS 142 on a fair value approach for the North American
Electronics reporting unit was performed. In accordance with SFAS 142, once
13
impairment is determined at a reporting unit, the amount of goodwill impairment
is determined based upon what the balance of goodwill would have been if the
purchase accounting method prescribed by SFAS 141 were applied at the date of
impairment. Under SFAS 142, if the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair
value, an impairment loss must be recognized in an amount equal to that excess.
Once the impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of the
goodwill will be its new accounting basis. This second phase of the impairment
evaluation determined that impairment had occurred, as a result of which an
impairment loss of $4,453 ($2,846 net of income taxes), was recognized as a
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as of the beginning of
fiscal 2002 as prescribed by SFAS 142.
In June 2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, " Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations." SFAS No. 143 addresses accounting and reporting for obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated
asset retirement costs. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2002. The Company intends to adopt this statement effective
December 28, 2002 (beginning of the Company's fiscal 2003). The Company does not
believe that implementation of this SFAS will have a material impact on its
Consolidated Financial Statements.
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-lived Assets," which supercedes SFAS No. 121. Though it retains
the basic requirements of SFAS No. 121 regarding when and how to measure
impairment loss, SFAS No. 144 provides additional implementation guidance. SFAS
144 applies to long-lived assets to be held and used or to be disposed of,
including assets under capital leases of lessees; assets subject to operating
leases of lessors; and prepaid assets. This statement is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company's adoption of this SFAS
during fiscal 2002 has not had a material impact on its Consolidated Financial
Statements.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
As reported in the Company's 10-K filed for fiscal 2001, The Electron
Corp ("Electron"), the minority partner in a joint venture established to
manufacture and market belted drive products filed for bankruptcy in late 2001
under Chapter 11 (Reorganization) of the US Bankruptcy Code. In February 2002
Electron abandoned certain non-cash assets that included Electron's minority
interest in the joint venture to a bank which was a secured creditor.
Subsequently Electron's reorganization proceeding was converted to Chapter 7
(Liquidation). In April 2002 the Company reached an agreement to purchase
Electron's minority interest in the joint venture, including the patterns,
tooling and intellectual property that Electron used to manufacture castings for
the joint venture from the bank for the sum of $3,230,000 plus the assumption of
income tax liabilities of $20,000. The Company did not recognize any gain or
loss from this purchase and the transaction will not have a material impact upon
its business operations. This purchase closed on July 8, 2002; on which date the
Company used borrowings under its US revolving credit facility to finance this
transaction. At June 28, 2002, the $3,230,000 purchase price is included in
accounts payable.
