NUMATICS, INCORPORATED
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)
September 30, 2002


1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all
of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
2002.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2001 has been derived from the audited
financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States for complete financial statements.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Numatics, Incorporated annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets" was adopted as of January 1, 2002. Under this
statement, goodwill is no longer amortized but is subject to annual impairment
tests or more frequent tests if impairment indicators arise. The impairment
tests of our goodwill were performed as required and it was determined that no
impairment of the goodwill existed at January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS 142
has had no material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In April 2002, SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statement 4, 44 and 64,
Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13 and Technical Corrections," was issued. Under
the provisions of SFAS 145 gains and losses associated with the extinguishment
of debt will no longer be classified as extraordinary. The Company will be
required to adopt SFAS 145 January 1, 2003. Accordingly, the Company will
reclassify on that date the $303,818 (net of income taxes of $148,000) recorded
in 2001 as an extraordinary item - early extinguishment of debt.

In July 2002, SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or
Disposal Activities" was issued. SFAS 146 requires that costs associated with an
exit or disposal plan be recognized when incurred rather than at the date of
commitment to an exit or disposal plan, and is to be applied prospectively to
exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company
anticipates that the adoption of SFAS 146 will have no effect on its financial
statements.

3. LONG-TERM DEBT

The Company reclassified $35.2 million of its senior debt from long-term
liabilities to current liabilities because it is probable the Company will not
be able to comply with existing loan covenant requirements at measurement dates
within the next twelve months. Such failure to meet covenants would result in an
event of default which, if not cured or waived, could have a material adverse
effect on the Company. The Company has had discussions with prospective new
senior lenders and has preliminarily selected a new lender who is performing due
diligence procedures for a transaction which, if consummated, would refinance
all of the senior debt and result in its reclassification to long-term by
December 31, 2002.

4. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

The Company reports its segments based on geographic area. The operating
segments' accounting policies are consistent with those described in Note 1.
Financial information, summarized by geographic area, is as follows:

5. GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES

The $115 million of 9 5/8 % senior subordinated notes issued by Numatics,
Incorporated in 1998 are guaranteed by the Company's United States subsidiaries
in which it owns 100 % of the voting stock. Each of the guarantor subsidiaries
has fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, the
obligation to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes.

The following supplemental consolidating condensed financial statements present:

1. Consolidating condensed balance sheets as of September 30, 2002 and
December 31, 2001 and consolidating condensed statements of operations for
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 and
consolidating condensed statements of cash flows for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001.

2. Numatics, Incorporated (the Parent), combined guarantor subsidiaries and
combined non-guarantor subsidiaries (consisting of the Parent's foreign
subsidiaries).

3. Elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Parent and all of its
subsidiaries.

Management does not believe that separate financial statements of the guarantor
subsidiaries are material to investors. Therefore, separate financial statements
and other disclosures concerning the guarantor subsidiaries are not presented.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Cautions Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q report contains forward-looking statements, which can be
identified by the use of the future tense or other forward-looking terms such as
"may," "intent," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "plan," "management believes,"
"estimate," "continue," "should," "strategy," or "position" or the negatives of
those terms or other variations on them or by comparable terminology. In
particular, any statements, express or implied, concerning future operating
results or the ability to generate net sales, income, or cash flow to service
indebtedness, or concerning future compliance with debt covenants or reaching
agreements with new senior lenders, are forward-looking statements. Investors
are cautioned that reliance on any of those forward-looking statements involves
risks and uncertainties and that, although Numatics' management believes that
the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements are based are
reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate. As a result,
the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be
incorrect, and actual results may differ materially from any results indicated
or suggested by those assumptions. The uncertainties in this regard include, but
are not limited to, the Company's ability to replace its senior credit facility
and to comply with financial covenants contained within the indenture and the
credit facilities, as well as those items identified in "Risk Factors" under
item 1 of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared With Three Months Ended
September 30, 2001

Net Sales. Net sales of $28.5 million for the three months ended September 30,
2002 were 6.6% higher than the $26.7 million in the same period of 2001. Net
sales of traditional valve products increased 7.1% or $1.3 million while net
sales of motion control products increased 4.6% or $0.2 million and sales of
other products increased 6.7% or $0.3 million. North American sales increased
6.2% or $1.4 million and international sales increased 8.2% or $0.4 million.
This improvement in sales was a result of a slight overall improvement in the
economy as well as new sales programs.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was $10.8 million, or 38.0% of net sales, for the
three months ended September 30, 2002 compared with $11.0 million, or 41.3% of
net sales, in the same period of 2001. The 3.3% reduction in gross profit margin
was primarily a result of product mix and depreciation savings during 2001 on
reduced capital expenditures.

Marketing, Engineering, General and Administrative. Marketing, engineering,
general and administrative expenses were $6.7 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2002, compared to $6.1 million for the same period in 2001. This
$0.6 million increase resulted


10



primarily from the restoration of bonus accruals not included in 2001 results,
professional fees and depreciation savings during 2001 on reduced capital
expenditures.

Operating Income. Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2002
was $4.0 million, $0.9 million below the same period in 2001 as increased sales
levels were offset by reduced gross margins and increased marketing,
engineering, general and administrative expenses. Operating income in North
America decreased $0.9 million, or 18.3%, while the international segment's
operating income remained substantially unchanged.

Interest and Other Financing Expenses. Interest and other financing expenses
increased $0.6 million from $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2001 to $4.5
million in 2002 as a result of higher interest rates.

Other Income. Other income of $0.1 million for the three months ended September
30, 2002, compared to $0.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2001.
The $0.3 million income in 2001 was primarily attributable to unrealized foreign
exchange gains, which resulted from the weakening of the U.S. dollar against
major foreign currencies.

Net Income (Loss). Due to the factors discussed above, the three months ended
September 30, 2002 resulted in a net loss of $0.4 million, compared to net
income of $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2001.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared With Nine Months Ended
September 30, 2001

Net Sales. Net sales of $83.3 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2002 were 6.4% lower than the $89.0 million in the same period of 2001. Net
sales of traditional valve products decreased 5.8% or $3.4 million while net
sales of motion control products decreased 6.7% or $1.1 million and sales of
other products decreased 8.3% or $1.2 million. North American sales decreased
5.9% or $4.3 million and international sales decreased 8.8% or $1.4 million.
This decline in sales was a direct result of the economic downturn that began in
North America in the last quarter of 2000 and in our international segment
mid-year 2001, although showing an upward trend during the most recent quarter.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was $31.8 million, or 38.2% of net sales, for the
nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared with $34.4 million, or 38.6% of
net sales, in the same period of 2001. This 0.4% decline in gross profit margin
was primarily a result of product mix and depreciation savings during 2001 on
reduced capital expenditures.

Marketing, Engineering, General and Administrative. Marketing, engineering,
general and administrative expenses were $19.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002, compared to $21.2 million for the same period in 2001. This
$2.0 million decrease was a result of cost savings implemented in response to
the reduced sales. In addition to an overall 28%


11



headcount reduction, the Company eliminated or reduced discretionary spending to
offset the effects of the lower sales volume.

Operating Income. Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002
was $12.5 million compared to $12.9 million in the same period in 2001. This
$0.4 million decrease was a result of the lower sales and gross profit margin,
offset by reduced marketing, engineering, general and administrative expenses.
Operating income in North America decreased $0.3 million, or 3.3%, while the
international segment's operating income decreased by $0.1 million, or 7.2%.

Interest and Other Financing Expenses. Interest and other financing expenses
increased $1.6 million from $12.1 million in the first nine months of 2001 to
$13.7 million in 2002 as a result of higher interest rates.

Other (Income) Expense. Other income of $0.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 was primarily attributable to unrealized foreign exchange
gains, which resulted from the strengthening of major foreign currencies against
the U.S. dollar, compared to a loss of $0.5 million in the nine months ended
September 30, 2001.

Income Tax. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had $2.5 million of net
deferred tax assets, substantially all of which related to United States federal
income tax. Based on known and projected earnings information and tax planning
strategies, the Company assesses quarterly the likelihood that the deferred tax
assets will be recovered. To the extent that the Company believes recovery is
not likely, it establishes a valuation allowance. As of September 30, 2002, the
Company had no valuation allowance recorded.

Net Income (Loss). Due to the factors discussed above, net income declined $0.8
million, from net income of $0.1 million during the nine months ended September
30, 2001 to a loss of $0.7 million during the nine months ended September 30,
2002.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital was $3.2 million at September 30, 2002 compared to $41.3 million
at December 31, 2001. The Company reclassified $35.2 million of its senior debt
from long-term liabilities to current liabilities because it is probable the
Company will not be able to comply with existing loan covenant requirements at
measurement dates within the next twelve months. Such failure to meet covenants
would result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could have a
material adverse effect on the Company. The Company has had discussions with
prospective new senior lenders and has preliminarily selected a new lender who
is performing due diligence procedures for a transaction which, if consummated,
would refinance all of the senior debt and result in its reclassification to
long-term by December 31, 2002. Historically, the Company has utilized cash from
operations and borrowings under its credit facilities to satisfy its operating
and capital needs and to service its indebtedness.

Total debt outstanding was $157.5 million at September 30, 2002 compared to
$161.8 million at December 31, 2001. This decrease was a result of the cash
generated by operating activities and


12



normal scheduled debt payments, offset by the issuance of $2.2 million of notes
payable to former shareholders in January 2002 in connection with the repurchase
of their shares in the Company. The Company estimates that borrowing base
limitations would have limited the Company's revolving credit availability to
approximately $23.5 million as of September 30, 2002.

Contractual obligations and commercial commitments for the Company as of
September 30, 2002 were as follows:




Payments Due by Period
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total 2002-2003 2004-2005 2006-2007 Beyond 2007

Debt $157,519,614 $37,547,285 $1,610,193 $2,162,136 $116,200,000
Operating leases 2,598,274 1,759,581 732,776 105,513 404


The Company has no other contractual obligations or commercial commitments.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States,
which requires the making of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect

related disclosures and contingencies. The estimates used in preparation of our
financial statements are evaluated on a continual basis. The significant
accounting policies as previously disclosed in Item 7. Management Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Significant
Accounting Policies, as described in the Numatics, Incorporated annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, have not changed with the
exception of goodwill due to the adoption of SFAS 142 as described in note 1 in
the accompanying notes to interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
