Proxy Statement relating to
2003 Annual Meeting of Shareholders Part III


All statements other than historical statements contained in this annual report
on Form 10-K or deemed to be contained herein due to incorporation by reference
to a different document constitute "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Without
limitation, these forward looking statements include statements regarding the
Company's business strategy and plans, statements about the adequacy of the
Company's working capital and other financial resources, statements about the
Company's bank agreements, statements about the Company's backlog, statements
about the Company's actions to improve operating performance, and other
statements herein that are not of a historical nature. These forward-looking
statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are
subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of which are
outside of the Company's control, that could cause actual results to differ
materially from such statements. These include, but are not limited to, factors
which could affect demand for the Company's products and services such as
general economic conditions and economic conditions in the aerospace industry
and the other industries in which the Company competes; competition from the
Company's competitors; the Company's ability to reduce costs; the Company's
ability to effectively use business-to-business tools on the Internet to improve
operating results; the adequacy of the Company's revolving credit facility and
other sources of capital. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.





PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

General

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include EDAC Technologies
Corporation ("We", "EDAC" or the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Gros-Ite Industries, Inc. and Apex Machine Tool Company, Inc. We provide
complete design, manufacture and service meeting the precision requirements of
some of the most exacting customers in the world for tooling, fixtures, molds,
jet engine components and machine spindles.

Information relating to our four business segments is contained in
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and in Note I to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2002
Annual Report to Shareholders incorporated by reference herein.

Products

We currently offer design and manufacturing services for a wide range of
industries in areas such as special tooling, equipment and gauges, and
components used in the manufacture, assembly and inspection of jet engines. We
also specialize in the design and repair of precision spindles. Spindles are an
integral part of numerous machine tools which are found in virtually any type of
manufacturing environment.

We maintain manufacturing facilities with computerized, numerically
controlled machining centers, and grinding, welding, painting and assembly
capabilities. Products manufactured by us include precision rings, and other
components for jet engines, industrial spindles and specialized machinery
designed by us or others and other assemblies requiring close tolerances.

Patents and Trademarks

We currently hold no patents or registered trademarks, tradenames or similar
intellectual property. We believe that the nature of our business presently does
not require the development of patentable products or registered tradenames or
trademarks.

Marketing and Competition

The Company developed its high skill level serving the aerospace industry
for over 50 years. For 2002, approximately 54% of our sales were to United
Technologies Corporation ("UTC"). We provide a range of components, tooling,
fixtures and design services for UTC's Pratt & Whitney and other divisions. In
addition, we have expanded our commitment to serving the manufacturing needs of
a broad base of industrial customers. The loss of UTC as a customer, or a
significant decrease in the amount of business we do with UTC, would have a
material adverse effect on our business.





The competition for design, manufacturing and service in precision machining
and machine tools consists of independent firms, many of which are smaller than
us. This allows us to bring a broader spectrum of support to our customers who
are consistently looking for ways to consolidate their vendor base. We also
compete against the in-house manufacturing and service capability of our larger
customers. We believe that the trend by large manufacturers to outsource
activities that are outside their core competency is an opportunity for us.

The market for our products and precision machining capabilities continues
to change with the development of more sophisticated use of business-to-business
tools on the internet. We are actively involved in securing new business leads
on the internet and have participated in internet auctions and research for
quoting opportunities.

We believe that we have a distinct competitive advantage in our ability to
provide high quality, high precision, quick turnaround support to customers from
design to delivery. Our experience and reputation in the demanding aerospace
business provides an extra level of expertise in meeting our customers'
requirements. We believe our commitment to continuous improvement and the latest
technology will generate productivity improvements required to respond to the
increasing price pressure in the competitive marketplace.

Backlog

Our backlog as of December 28, 2002, was approximately $18,500,000 compared
to $29,000,000 as of December 29, 2001. The decrease is primarily due to the
sales backlog decrease in the Engineered Precision Components group. Backlog
consists of accepted purchase orders that are cancelable by the customer without
penalty, except for payment of costs incurred, and may involve delivery times
that extend over periods as long as three years. We presently expect to complete
approximately $9,000,000 of our December 28, 2002 backlog during the 2003 fiscal
year.

We maintain a website with the address www.edactechnologies.com. We are not
including the information contained on our website as part of, or incorporating
it by reference into, this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Employees

As of February 18, 2003, we had approximately 194 employees.





ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

The following table describes the location and general character of our
principal plants and other materially important physical properties. The
properties at 1790 and 1798 New Britain Avenue were renovated in 1997 to improve
production, increase capacity and improve the appearance of both the interior
