NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Company as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 and the
results of operations and changes in cash flows for the indicated periods.

The Company uses estimated gross profit rates to determine the cost of goods
sold during interim periods on a portion of its operations. Actual results could
differ from those estimates and will be adjusted, as necessary, following the
Company's annual physical inventory in the fourth quarter.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. The results of operations for the three and six-month period ending June 30,
2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

3. The Company extends credit on the basis of terms that are customary within
our markets to various companies doing business primarily in the automotive
industry. The Company has a concentration of credit risk primarily within the
automotive industry and in the Midwestern United States.

4. The Company is, from time to time, involved in litigation, in the normal
course of business. While it is not possible at this time to establish the
ultimate amount of liability with respect to contingent liabilities, including
those related to legal proceedings, management is of the opinion that the
aggregate amount of any such liabilities, for which provision has not been made,
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position.

CHICAGO RIVET & MACHINE CO.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

Results for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were disappointing. Weak
demand continued to characterize our markets and the resulting decline in
revenues was the primary factor contributing to the decline in operating income
during the quarter and the first half of the year. As discussed below,
conditions within our operating segments diverged somewhat during the quarter.
The assembly equipment segment remained at relatively steady, albeit weak,
levels while activity within the fastener segment was erratic and difficult to
forecast.

As previously reported, during the second quarter of 2002, the assembly
equipment segment benefited from a large order from a single customer. We did
not enjoy a similar order in 2003, and the absence of such an order is the
primary reason for the year to year decline in revenues in both the second
quarter and the first six months. While we are not satisfied with the current
level of activity in this segment, we do not anticipate a change until activity,
particularly capital spending, within the manufacturing portion of the economy
shows sustained improvement. Since conditions have been fairly consistent within
this segment, we have been successful in implementing cost reduction measures
that have been proportional to changes in volume. As a result, with the
exception of an increase in the cost of employee health insurance, the change in
gross margins within this segment is directly attributable to the change in
volume.

Second quarter 2003 fastener segment revenues of $7,933,029 were 18%
lower than those recorded during the second quarter of 2002. On a year to date
basis, 2003 revenues within the fastener segment amount to $16,293,180, which is
a decline of 11% compared with the first six months of 2002. Within the fastener
segment, the sudden decline in activity that began late in the first quarter
seemed to abate in April, but activity slumped again in May and June. North
American automobile production during the second quarter of 2003 was more than
8% lower than during the same period of 2002. Production levels for domestic
nameplates, which represent our largest market, were over 11% lower in the
second quarter of 2003, compared to the second quarter of 2002. In addition, our
revenues were adversely impacted by the loss of some business due to our
inability to meet price concessions demanded by certain customers and by the
phase-out of certain parts in connection with model year changes. We have been
awarded new parts in connection with the new model year, but production of these
new parts will not reach full volume until later in the year. Nevertheless,
during the second quarter, we incurred higher than normal tooling expense in
connection with the development of these parts.

In response to lower volumes, we have focused on cost reductions and,
with the exception of two areas, we have been successful in reducing
manufacturing costs in a manner proportional with the change in business levels.
One exception is the cost of employee health insurance, which has increased
substantially compared to last year. The other exception is labor costs. While
we have made some reductions in hours and staffing levels, the recent
inconsistency in demand caused us to hesitate to make widespread reductions,
because our workforce has specialized skills and the investment in training is
very high, and, we did not expect the reduction in fastener demand to be as
severe or as prolonged as it has been this year. Clearly, our position with
respect to our workforce will have to be re-evaluated if demand does not
improve.

Selling and administrative expenses declined approximately $145,000
during the second quarter of 2003, compared with the second quarter of 2002. The
reduction is primarily due to lower commission and profit sharing expense.

During the second quarter, the accounts receivable balance increased
slightly, reflecting the fact that more customers are delaying payments beyond
historical terms. Although sales have declined, we were successful in reducing
inventory levels during the second quarter of 2003. At June 30, 2003, the
balance due on the term note was $732,760 and the effective interest rate was
2%. This note is scheduled to be paid in full in December 2003. The Company also
has a $1.0 million line of credit available through Bank of America, NA. There
is no charge for this facility unless it is utilized. We believe that the
Company's current cash, cash equivalents and the available line of credit will
be sufficient to provide adequate working capital for the foreseeable future.

Looking ahead, we remain concerned because conditions within the
manufacturing sector of the economy have not yet responded to the various
stimuli designed to engineer a widespread economic recovery. Our markets
continue to be highly competitive, and our major customers continue to exert
downward pressure on prices and margins. Late in the second quarter, we were
favored with a number of orders for assembly equipment. While we are pleased to
have the orders, they were primarily from a handful of customers within a very
specific industry, and thus, we do not believe they represent the beginning of a
widespread improvement. Similarly, within the fastener segment, we have received
orders


10



for a variety of new parts from our automotive customers and expect to begin
shipping in the third quarter. However, we cannot be certain that this new
business will be sufficient to restore revenue to last year's levels. We
recognize that recent results are not satisfactory. While we continue to solicit
new business, we are closely monitoring our operations and are prepared to make
adjustments as conditions dictate.

This discussion contains certain "forward-looking statements" which are
inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events to
differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors which may cause such
differences in events include, among other things, our ability to maintain our
relationships with our significant customers; increased global competition;
increases in the prices of, or limitations on the availability of, our primary
raw materials; or a downturn in the automotive industry, upon which we rely for
sales revenue, and which is cyclical and dependent on, among other things,
consumer spending, international economic conditions and regulations and
policies regarding international trade. Many of these factors are beyond our
ability to control or predict. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance
on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publish
revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the
date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE INFORMATION ABOUT MARKET RISK

Over time, the Company is exposed to market risks arising from changes
in interest rates. The Company has not historically used derivative financial
instruments. As of June 30, 2003, $732,760 of floating-rate debt was exposed to
changes in interest rates compared to $1,632,760 as of December 31, 2002. This
exposure was primarily linked to the London Inter-Bank Offering Rate and the
lender's prime rate under the Company's term loan. A hypothetical 10% change in
these rates would not have had a material effect on the Company's quarterly
earnings.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's management, with
the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the
end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded
that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on
a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the
reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any
changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term
is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the
fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
