accepted accounting principles 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 three month periods ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily
indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
2003. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2002.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2002
presentation.

NOTE C -- COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

During the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, total
comprehensive income was $1,394,000 and $2,274,000, respectively. The
reconciling item between net income and comprehensive income consists of foreign
currency translation adjustments.


NOTE D -- ACQUISITIONS

On February 28, 2002, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
stock of American Machine & Tool Co., Inc. ("AMT") for a cash purchase price of
approximately $12.6 million net of $3.7 million cash acquired. AMT's "off the
shelf" pumps give the Company the opportunity to market commodity type products.
AMT, located in Royersford, Pennsylvania, is a developer and manufacturer of
standard centrifugal pumps for industrial and commercial fluid-handling
applications. The acquisition of AMT offers the Company the opportunity to
increase sales of AMT's products through the Company's existing outlets to
domestic and international markets. AMT's primary sales channel is comprised of
large-scale distributors of industrial supplies promoted through third-party
distributor catalogs. AMT operates as a subsidiary of the Company.

NOTE D--ACQUISITIONS--CONTINUED

On March 1, 2002, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock
of Flo-Pak, Inc. ("Flo-Pak") for a purchase price of approximately $6.5 million,
of which $5.6 million was cash and $900,000 was a note payable, a portion of
which was subsequently paid in 2002. The acquisition of Flo-Pak offers the
Company a "ready business" opportunity to diversify its product line and
increase market share without the cost or time to perform the necessary research
and development activities to enter the market. Gorman-Rupp has a distribution
network and market strength to offer growth opportunities to Flo-Pak eliminating
the need for additional capital investment to gain market share. Flo-Pak,
located in Atlanta, Georgia, is a manufacturer of designed pumping systems for
the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) market. The results of
operations of Flo-Pak are part of Patterson Pump Company, a subsidiary of the
Company.

The following unaudited pro forma data summarizes the results of operations for
the periods indicated as if the fiscal 2002 acquisitions had been completed as
of the beginning of the periods presented. The pro forma data shows the effect
on actual operating results prior to the acquisitions. Effects of cost
reductions and operating synergies are not presented. These pro forma amounts
are not indicative of the results that would have actually been achieved if the
acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented or that may
be achieved in the future.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain statements in this section and elsewhere herein contain various
forward-looking statements and includes assumptions concerning The Gorman-Rupp
Company's operations, future results and prospects. These forward-looking
statements are based on current expectations and are subject to risk and
uncertainties. In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, The Gorman-Rupp Company provides the
following cautionary statement identifying important economic, political, and
technological factors, among others, the absence of which could cause the actual
results or events to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the
forward-looking statements and related assumptions.

Such factors include the following: (1) continuation of the current and
projected future business environment, including interest rates and capital and
consumer spending; (2) competitive factors and competitor responses to
Gorman-Rupp initiatives; (3) successful development and market introductions of
anticipated new products; (4) stability of government laws and regulation,
including taxes; (5) stable governments and business conditions in emerging
economies; (6) successful penetration of emerging economies and (7) continuation
of the favorable environment to make acquisitions, domestic and foreign,
including regulatory requirements and market values of candidates.

FIRST QUARTER 2003 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER 2002
Net sales for the first quarter were $43,793,000 in 2003 compared to $45,299,000
in 2002, a reduction of $1,506,000 or 3.3 percent. Economic uncertainty
continued to place pressure on the Company's products sold in the capital goods
sector. Revenue from sales of the Company's pump products increased 12.7%
compared to the first quarter 2002; 3.2% after excluding the impact of
acquisitions made during 2002. This growth was more than offset by a 78%
reduction in shipments of fabricated products for the power generation market.
The reduction resulted from postponement and cancellation of orders due to lack
of need for additional capacity in the power generation market and is projected
to continue through 2004.

Cost of products sold in the first quarter 2003 was $35,355,000 compared to
$35,752,000 during 2002, a decrease of 1.1 percent. As a percentage of sales,
cost of products sold was 80.7% in 2003 compared to 78.9 % in 2002. The increase
in cost of goods sold as a percent of sales was principally the effect of volume
related costs and the further reduction in manufacturing fabricated products for
the power generation market, reduced by benefits from cost reduction programs.
Manufacturing cost increases in pension and postretirement expense along with
property and liability insurance premiums also contributed to the higher
percentage.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $6,763,000 in 2003 compared
to $6,079,000 in 2002, an increase of $684,000 or 11.3 percent. The increase
principally resulted from the inclusion for the full quarter in 2003 of selling,
general, and administrative expenses from the Company's acquisitions made in
2002, somewhat reduced by benefits from cost control programs . Higher employee
pension and postretirement costs and increases in property and liability
insurance premiums also added to the increased expense.

Other income was $362,000 in 2003 compared to $136,000 in 2002, an increase of
$226,000 or 166.2 percent. This was principally the result of the change in the
foreign currency exchange rates.

Other expense was $101,000 in 2003 compared to $132,000 in 2002, a decrease of
$31,000 or 23.5 percent. This was primarily the result of the decrease in
interest expense for 2003.

PART I--CONTINUED

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--CONTINUED

Income before income taxes was $1,936,000 in 2003 compared to $3,472,000 in
2002, a decrease of $1,536,000 or 44.2 percent. Reduced sales along with the
increased effect of volume related expenses and increased selling , general, and
administrative expense were the principle reasons for the decrease in income
before income taxes. The effective tax rate was 37.9% in 2003 and 38.0% in 2002.

Net income was $1,202,000 in 2003 compared to $2,153,000 in 2002, a decrease of
$951,000 or 44.2 percent. As a percent of sales, net income was 2.7% in 2003
compared to 4.8% in 2002. Earnings per share were $0.14 in 2003 compared to
$0.25 in 2002, a reduction of $0.11 per share.

On February 28, 2002, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
stock of American Machine & Tool Co., Inc. ("AMT") for a net cash purchase price
of approximately $12.6 million. On March 1, 2002, the Company acquired all of
the issued and outstanding stock of Flo-Pak, Inc. ("Flo-Pak") for a cash
purchase price of approximately $5.6 million. The acquisitions were financed
with cash from the Company's treasury, $900,000 of notes payable and by a draw
of $10.0 million on an unsecured credit facility. The Company paid back the bank
borrowings in 2002. AMT, located in Royersford, Pennsylvania, is a developer and
manufacturer of standard centrifugal pumps for industrial and commercial
fluid-handling applications. AMT operates as a subsidiary of the Company.
Flo-Pak, located in Atlanta, Georgia, is a manufacturer of designed pumping
systems for the HVAC market. Flo-Pak's operations have been merged into
Patterson Pump Company, a subsidiary of the Company.

In March 2002, Patterson Pump Company, acquired the remaining interest in its
subsidiary Patterson Pump Ireland Limited. Patterson Pump Company now owns 100%
of Patterson Pump Ireland Limited. Pump assembly at Patterson Pump Ireland
Limited will continue to serve the European market.

LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL
Cash flows from operating activities increased $481,000 from $3,171,000 in the
three months ended March 31, 2002 to $3,652,000 in the three months ended March
31, 2003. The increase was primarily related to decreased working capital
requirements partially offset by decreased net income.

Investing activities included payments for normal capital additions of
$1,089,000 and $1,104,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2002, cash used for the business
acquisitions was $18,287,000.

Financing activities consisted of payments primarily for dividends which were
$1,452,000 and $1,366,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2002, $10,000,000 was borrowed to
finance the acquisitions. Later in 2002, this amount was repaid to the banks
from internally generated funds.

The Company continues to finance most of its capital expenditures and working
capital requirements through internally generated funds and bank financing. The
ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 4.2 to 1 at March 31, 2003
and 4.3 to 1 at December 31, 2002.

The Company presently has adequate working capital and borrowing capacity and a
strong liquidity position.

PART I--CONTINUED

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES OF MARKET RISK

The Company's foreign operations do not involve any material risks due to their
small size, both individually and collectively. The Company is not exposed to
material market risks as a result of its export sales or operations outside of
the United States. Export sales are denominated predominately in U.S. dollars
and made on open account or letter of credit.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of
the Company's management, including the Principal Executive Officer and
Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
the Company's disclosure controls and procedures within 90 days before the
filing of this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the Company's
management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial
Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were
effective. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal
controls, or in other factors that could significantly affect those internal
controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses, subsequent to the date of the evaluations.
