APRIL 26, 2003 (Unaudited)

1.		BASIS OF PRESENTATION
		The principal operations of Argo-Tech Corporation (a wholly-owned subsidiary of AT Holdings Corporation) and its subsidiaries include the design, manufacture and distribution of aviation products, primarily aircraft fuel pumps. In addition, Argo-Tech leases a portion of its Cleveland, Ohio manufacturing facility to other parties. Argo-Tech’s fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in October. Argo-Tech is required to fulfill the obligation of AT Holdings Corporation to purchase AT Holdings’ common stock in accordance with the provisions of the Argo-Tech Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan. As a result, that obligation has been reflected in its financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.
		Argo-Tech Corporation is a parent holding company and all of its subsidiaries guarantee Argo-Tech’s senior subordinated notes. Argo-Tech has no outside assets, liabilities or operations apart from its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The senior subordinated notes are fully, unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed by the guarantor subsidiaries, and therefore, separate financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries will not be presented. Management has determined that the information presented by such separate financial statements is not material to investors.
2.		UNAUDITED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
		The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, the information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of Argo-Tech’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in Argo-Tech’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 25, 2003. The results of operations for the 13 and 27 week periods ended May 1, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
3.		INVENTORIES
		Inventories are stated at standard cost which approximates the costs which would be determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The recorded value of inventories is not in excess of market value. Inventories consist of the following (in thousands):

4.		INTANGIBLE ASSETS
		The following is a summary of intangible assets, other than goodwill (in thousands):

		Amortization expense recorded on the intangible assets for the 13 week periods ended May 1, 2004 and April 26, 2003 was $0.9 million and for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 and the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003 was $1.7 million. The estimated amortization expense for each of the three succeeding fiscal years 2004 through 2006 is $3.4 million, fiscal year 2007 is $3.2 million and fiscal year 2008 is $1.7 million. The weighted-average amortization period for contracts is 10 years, spare parts annuity is 26 years and patents is 15 years.
5.		PRODUCT WARRANTY
		Argo-Tech accrues for warranty obligations for products sold based on management estimates of the amount that may be required to settle such potential obligations. These estimates are prepared with support from our sales, engineering, quality and legal functions. This accrual, which is reviewed in detail on a regular basis, is based on several factors: past experience, current claims, production changes and various other considerations. The following table presents a reconciliation of changes in the product warranty liability for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 and the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003 (in thousands):

6.		EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
		The Company has two noncontributory defined benefit pension plans for qualifying hourly and salary employees. A plan covering salaried employees provides pension benefits that are based on the employees’ compensation and years of service. The future accrual of benefits was terminated in connection with the formation of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). A plan covering hourly employees provides benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. The Company’s funding policy is to contribute actuarially determined amounts allowable under Internal Revenue Service regulations.

7

A summary of the components of net periodic benefit cost for the pension plans is as follows (in thousands):

		Argo-Tech is expecting to contribute $185,000 to the hourly pension plan in 2004. As of May 1, 2004, no contributions have been made.
		The Company also provides certain postretirement health care benefits to qualifying hourly retirees and their dependents. This benefit is not funded.
		A summary of the components of net periodic benefit cost for the postretirement benefit is as follows (in thousands):

7.		CONTINGENCIES
		Environmental Matters — The soil and groundwater at Argo-Tech’s Euclid, Ohio facility and Costa Mesa, California facility contain elevated levels of certain contaminants which are currently in the process of being removed and/or remediated. Because Argo-Tech has certain indemnification rights from former owners of the facilities for liabilities arising from these or other environmental matters, in the opinion of Argo-Tech’s management, the ultimate outcome is not expected to materially affect its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
		Other Matters — Argo-Tech is subject to various legal actions and other contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of Argo-Tech’s management, after reviewing the information which is currently available with respect to such matters and consulting with Argo-Tech’s legal counsel, any liability which may ultimately be incurred with respect to these matters is not expected to materially affect Argo-Tech’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

8.		SEGMENT INFORMATION
		Argo-Tech operates in two business segments: Aerospace and Industrial. The Aerospace segment includes the design, manufacture, distribution, repair and overhaul of aviation products, consisting of aircraft fuel pumps, fuel flow related products found on a plane’s airframe, and aerial refueling pumps and related equipment. The Industrial segment includes the design, manufacture and distribution of industrial pumps, ground fueling valves and related components, specialty industrial hose, cryogenic pumps and nozzles for transferring liquefied natural gas and operation of a business park in Cleveland, Ohio where we maintain our headquarters and one of our production facilities.
		Argo-Tech evaluates the performance of its segments based primarily on operating profit before amortization of deferred financing fees and other identified intangibles, interest expense, interest income, other miscellaneous fees and income taxes.

10.		NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
		In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a revised FASB Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” FIN 46 requires existing, unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse risks among the parties involved. Argo-Tech is not associated with variable interest entities; therefore, the adoption of this statement did not have any effect on Argo-Tech’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
		In December 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act was enacted, which introduced a Medicare prescription drug benefit and a federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health-care plans that provide a benefit at least actuarially equivalent to the Medicare benefit. In accordance with FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 106-2, Argo-Tech has elected to defer recognition of the effects of the new Medicare Act. The accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and net periodic postretirement benefit cost do not reflect the provisions of the Act. Specific authoritative guidance on accounting for the federal subsidy is pending and may require changes to previously reported information.
		In December 2003, the FASB issued a revision to SFAS No. 132, “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits,” which expands the disclosure requirements regarding plan assets and benefit obligations for Argo-Tech’s two noncontributory defined benefit pension plans and its postretirement benefit plan. Argo-Tech adopted the provisions of this statement effective with the period beginning February 1, 2004 (see Note 6).
11.		RECENT EVENTS
		Argo-Tech Corporation established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) in 1994 to provide retirement benefits to qualifying, salaried employees. Shares of AT Holdings’ common stock were purchased by the ESOP from the proceeds of a loan made by Argo-Tech to the ESOP and are held in a suspense account and released to eligible participants on a pro rata basis as loan principal payments are made. Based on the loan payment schedule, the release of the final 21,000 shares of stock, representing a half–year allocation of common stock from the suspense account, will be made in October 2004. Argo-Tech has decided to continue this employee benefit by contributing to the ESOP another 21,000 shares of AT Holdings’ common stock in fiscal year 2004 and 42,000 shares in fiscal year 2005. These shares of stock are being contributed from shares that have been repurchased from former ESOP participants and are currently being held in treasury stock.
		All hourly employees at the Cleveland facility are represented by the United Auto Workers union under a collective bargaining agreement that expired on March 31, 2004. Argo-Tech is currently negotiating a new collective bargaining agreement with the UAW and continues to operate under the existing agreement, which is renewed on a daily basis until negotiations are completed.
12.		SUBSEQUENT EVENT
		In May 2004, Argo-Tech launched a tender offer and consent solicitation to purchase all of its outstanding 8 5/8% senior subordinated notes due 2007.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Overview

Argo-Tech is a global designer, manufacturer and servicer of high performance fuel flow devices and systems. We operate in two business segments, Aerospace and Industrial. The Aerospace segment consists of aircraft engine fuel pumps and other engine products, commercial and military products and systems found on a plane’s airframe, and aerial refueling pumps and related equipment. The Industrial segment includes ground fueling nozzles, hoses and other ground fueling components, an automated fuel management system, cryogenic pumps and nozzles and the operation of a business park in Cleveland, Ohio.

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected Argo-Tech’s financial position and operating results during the periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Argo-Tech’s fiscal year ends on the last Saturday of October and is identified according to the calendar year in which it ends.

Export Sales

Substantially all of our export sales are denominated in U. S. dollars. Export sales for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 were $35.1 million. Sales to Europe were $23.3 million and sales to all other regions, individually less that 10%, were $11.8 million for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which enable the fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies reflect its more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. Revenues are generally recognized when goods are shipped or services provided, at which time title and risk of loss passes to the customer. Substantially all sales are made pursuant to firm, fixed-price purchase orders received from customers. We have executed long-term supply agreements with certain of our OEM customers. These agreements require Argo-Tech to supply all the amounts ordered by the customers during the term of the agreements (generally three to five years) at specified prices. Under certain of these agreements, we expect to incur losses. Provisions for estimating losses on these contracts are made in the period in which such losses are identified based on cost and pricing information and estimated future shipment quantities provided by the customer. The cumulative effect of revisions to estimated losses on contracts is recorded in the accounting period in which the amounts become known and can be reasonably estimated. Such revisions could occur at any time there are changes to estimated future revenues or costs. Revenue from certain fixed price engineering contracts for which costs can be reliably estimated are recognized based on milestone billings. Variations in actual labor performance, changes to estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions to the cost estimates. Revisions in cost estimates as contracts progress have the effect of increasing or decreasing profits in the period of revision. We record estimated reductions to revenue for volume-based incentives based on expected customer activity for the applicable period. Revisions for

12

volume-based incentives are recorded in the accounting period in which such estimates can be reasonably determined.

Valuation of Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We evaluate the collectibility of our trade receivables based on a combination of factors. We regularly analyze our customer accounts, and when we become aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligation to us, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings, we immediately record a bad debt expense and reduce the related receivable to the amount we reasonably believe is collectible. We estimate the allowance for doubtful accounts based on the aging of the accounts receivable, customer creditworthiness and historical experience. Our estimate of the allowance amounts includes amounts for specifically identified losses and a general amount for estimated losses. If circumstances change or economic conditions deteriorate, our estimates of the recoverability of receivables could be further adjusted.

Valuation of Inventories. Our inventory purchases and commitments are made in order to build inventory to meet future shipment schedules based on forecasted demand for our products. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. Periodically, we perform a detailed assessment of inventory, which includes a review of, among other factors, historical sales activity, future demand requirements, product life cycle and development plans and quality issues. Based on this analysis, we record provisions for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory to reflect inventory at net realizable value. These provisions could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from actual requirements based upon future economic conditions, customer inventory levels or competitive factors that were not foreseen, or did not exist, when the valuation allowances were established.

Valuation of Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill and identified intangible assets are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition. Intangible assets other than goodwill are recognized if the benefit of the intangible asset is obtained through contractual or other legal rights, or if the intangible asset can be sold, transferred, licensed or exchanged, regardless of our intent to do so. Intangible assets, such as goodwill, that have an indefinite useful life are not amortized. All other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We review goodwill and purchased intangible assets for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Our asset impairment review assesses the fair value of the assets based on the future cash flows the assets are expected to generate. This approach uses our estimates of future market growth, forecasted revenue and costs and appropriate discount rates. When impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value.

Fluctuations of Operating Results; Limitation of Quarterly Comparisons

Argo-Tech’s results of operations are subject to fluctuations from quarter to quarter due to changes in demand for its products, changes in product mix and other factors. Demand for its products can vary from quarter to quarter due to changes in demand for, and timing of deliveries of, OEM, aftermarket and military products and services. In particular, the timing of Argo-Tech’s aftermarket sales tends not to occur on a predictable schedule and, furthermore, the sales tend to occur in large quantities that can significantly impact quarterly comparisons. Accordingly, year-to-year and quarter-to-quarter comparisons of quarterly results may not be meaningful, and quarterly results during the year are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period or for the entire year.

Results of Operations for the 13 Week Period Ended May 1, 2004 Compared With the 13 Week Period Ended April 26, 2003

Net revenues for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $5.7 million, or 13.7%, to $47.4 million from $41.7 million for the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. This increase was primarily due to an increase in aerospace revenues of $2.9 million and an increase of $2.8 million in industrial revenues. The increase in aerospace revenues was attributable to an increase of $1.9 million of commercial aerospace revenues and $1.0 million of military revenues. Commercial OEM revenues

13

increased $0.6 million, or 10.5%, to $6.3 million and commercial aftermarket revenues increased $1.3 million, or 8.8%, to $16.0 million in the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004. Commercial OEM revenues increased primarily as a result of an increase in pump requirements from our customers. Commercial aftermarket revenues were higher primarily due to an increase in repair and overhaul activities along with a slight increase in the demand for spare part sales. Military revenues increased primarily due to revenue related to increased sales on a variety of OEM and aftermarket main engine pumps and components as well as an increase in revenues related to airframe components on various OEM development programs. The $2.8 million increase in industrial revenues was primarily attributable to an increase of $3.9 million in military ground fueling revenues offset by a decrease of $1.1 million in industrial gas turbine and cryogenic pump revenues.

Aerospace gross profit for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $3.4 million, or 25.6%, to $16.6 million from $13.2 million in the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. Gross margin increased to 47.4% for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 from 41.0% in the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. The increase in gross profit and gross margin is primarily attributable to the increase in military revenues and higher margin commercial aerospace aftermarket revenues along with an increase in operating efficiencies at both our Cleveland and Costa Mesa facilities. Industrial gross profit for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $1.3 million, or 46.4%, to $4.1 million from $2.8 million in the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. Gross margin increased to 33.3% in the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 from 29.5% in the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. The increase in gross profit and gross margin was primarily attributable to an increase in military ground fueling revenues and reduced operating expenses of our business park partially offset by an increase in manufacturing costs for our cryogenic pump products.

Operating expenses for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $1.6 million, or 16.2%, to $11.5 million from $9.9 million in the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase of $1.0 million in research and development expenses and $0.6 million in selling, general and administrative expenses related to increased marketing costs, including commissions and royalties. The increase in research and development expenses is due to a decrease in customer paid development expenses. Operating expenses as a percent of revenues increased to 24.3% for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 as compared to 23.7% for the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003.

Income from operations for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $3.1 million, or 50.8%, to $9.2 million from $6.1 million in the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. As a percent of revenues, income from operations for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased to 19.4% from 14.6% for the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. These increases were primarily due to increased military revenues, increased sales of higher margin commercial aerospace aftermarket revenues and the increase in military ground fueling revenues, partially offset by an increase in cryogenic pump manufacturing costs and higher operating expenses.

Interest expense for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 decreased $0.2 million, or 3.8%, to $5.1 million from $5.3 million in the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003 due to a lower interest rate applied to lower outstanding borrowings.

The income tax provision was $1.4 million for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 as compared to $0.2 million for the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003. This increase is primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income.

Net income for the 13 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $2.1 million to $2.7 million from $0.6 million for the 13 week period ended April 26, 2003, primarily due to the revenue and expense factors discussed above.

14

Results of Operations for the 27 Week Period Ended May 1, 2004 Compared With the 26 Week Period Ended April 26, 2003

Net revenues for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $15.9 million, or 20.9%, to $91.8 million from $75.9 million for the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. This increase was primarily due to an increase in aerospace revenues of $7.0 million and an $8.9 million increase in industrial revenues. The increase in aerospace revenues was attributable to an increase of $1.6 million of commercial aerospace revenues and an increase of $5.4 million in military revenues. Commercial OEM revenues increased $1.1 million, or 11.1%, to $11.0 million and commercial aftermarket revenues increased $0.5 million, or 1.8%, to $28.8 million in the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004. Commercial OEM revenues increased primarily as a result of an increase in pump requirements from our customers. Commercial aftermarket revenues increased slightly primarily due to an increase in repair and overhaul services offset by a decrease in demand for spare part sales. The lower demand for spare part sales is a result of the availability of spare parts taken from parked aircraft and the deferral of maintenance. Military revenues increased primarily due to revenue related to increased sales on a variety of OEM and aftermarket main engine fuel pump and airframe components as well as an increase in revenues related to airframe components on various OEM development programs. Industrial revenues increased $8.9 million, primarily attributable to an increase of $6.8 million in ground fueling revenues, of which $6.1 million was attributable to military sales, and $2.5 million in cryogenic pump revenues, offset by slight decreases in industrial gas turbine and business park revenues.

Aerospace gross profit for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $4.6 million, or 17.8%, to $30.5 million from $25.9 million in the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. Gross margin increased to 46.3% for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 from 43.9% in the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. The increase in gross profit and gross margin is primarily attributable to an increase in military revenues and an increase in operating efficiencies at both our Cleveland and Costa Mesa facilities. Industrial gross profit for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $2.8 million, or 54.9%, to $7.9 million from $5.1 million in the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. Gross margin increased to 30.5% in the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 from 30.0% in the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. The increase in gross profit and gross margin is primarily attributable to an increase in military ground fueling revenues partially offset by the increase in lower margin cryogenic pump revenues.

Operating expenses for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $1.8 million, or 9.2%, to $21.4 million from $19.6 million in the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. This increase is primarily due to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.9 million and research and development expenses of $0.9 million. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.9 million was related to an increase in marketing expenses, including commissions and royalties. The increase in research and development expenses is due to a decrease in customer paid development expenses. Operating expenses as a percent of revenues decreased to 23.3% for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 as compared to 25.8% for the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003.

Income from operations for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $5.7 million, or 50.9%, to $16.9 million from $11.2 million in the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. As a percent of revenues, income from operations for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased to 18.4% from 14.8% for the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. These increases were primarily due to the increase in military and industrial revenues and increased operating efficiencies in Cleveland and Costa Mesa, partially offset by increased operating expenses.

Interest expense for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 decreased $0.1 million, or 0.9%, to $10.5 million from $10.6 million for the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003 due to lower outstanding borrowings and interest rates on the term loans partially offset by an increase in amortization of deferred financing fees resulting from the amendment to our existing credit facility in January 2003.

15

The income tax provision was $2.1 million for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 as compared to $0.1 million for the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. This increase is primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income.

Net income for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $3.8 million to $4.3 million from $0.5 million for the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003 primarily due to the revenue and expense factors discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Argo-Tech is a holding company that receives all of its operating income from its subsidiaries. As a result, Argo-Tech’s primary source of liquidity for conducting business activities and servicing its indebtedness has been cash flows from operating activities.

Cash and cash equivalents for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 increased $1.3 million to $15.4 million. This was primarily due to an increase in net income partially offset by an increase in working capital and the scheduled repayment of term loans.

Capital expenditures for the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004 totaled $0.7 million compared to $0.8 million for the 26 week period ended April 26, 2003. Argo-Tech expects to incur capital expenditures of approximately $2.3 million for the remainder of fiscal year 2004, related to the continued maintenance of facilities, equipment and systems to support current operating activities.

Long-term debt at May 1, 2004 consisted of $19.9 million principal amount of term loans and $193.7 million principal amount of senior subordinated notes. Scheduled payments of $6.0 million were made on the term loans in the 27 week period ended May 1, 2004. At May 1, 2004, Argo-Tech has available, after $2.9 million in letters of credit, a $17.1 million revolving credit facility. As of May 1, 2004, there were no outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facility. The credit facility contains no restrictions on the ability of Argo-Tech’s subsidiaries to make distributions to Argo-Tech.

Our expected future contractual cash obligations and other commercial commitments for the next five years are as follows (in millions):

(1) – Of the $29.9 million of total contractual cash obligations, $14.8 million has been paid to date.

(2) – Represents interest payments on the senior subordinated notes. Interest on the term loan facility is excluded as it is not fixed and determinable. Funding for retirement and other post-employment benefits is estimated to be $0.2 million.

We believe that cash flow from operations will provide adequate funds for our working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and near term debt service obligations. Our ability to fund our operations, make planned capital expenditures, and to make scheduled payments on our indebtedness depends on our future operating performance and cash flow. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. There can be no assurance that Argo-Tech will be able to refinance any of its indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all. These items are subject to prevailing conditions and to financial, business, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results

From time to time, information provided by Argo-Tech, statements by its employees or information included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including those portions of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis that refer to the future) may contain forward-looking statements that are not historical facts. Those statements are “forward-looking” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements, and Argo-Tech’s future performance, operating results, financial position and liquidity, are subject to a variety of factors that could materially affect results. Some, but not necessarily all, of these factors include: Argo-Tech’s dependence on the aerospace industry, especially as the industry is affected by commercial airlines operating schedules, terrorism alert and health warnings and losses in the airline industry; government regulation and oversight; defense spending; competition; product and environmental liabilities; risks associated with its workforce, suppliers, and indebtedness; and other factors included in Argo-Tech’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 25, 2003.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

In the ordinary course of operations, Argo-Tech’s major market risk exposure is to changing interest rates, primarily with respect to its long-term debt obligations. At May 1, 2004, Argo-Tech had fixed rate debt totaling $195 million, including $1.3 million of accretion, at 8.625% and variable rate debt under its existing credit facility of $19.9 million calculated at Argo-Tech’s choice using an alternate base rate (ABR) or LIBOR, plus a supplemental percentage determined by the ratio of debt to EBITDA. The variable rate is not to exceed ABR plus 2.50% or LIBOR plus 3.50%. Argo-Tech currently has no derivative contracts and does not enter into derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. A 10% fluctuation in interest rates would not materially affect Argo-Tech’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). These rules refer to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods. Argo-Tech’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the design, operation and effectiveness of Argo-Tech’s disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded, based on such evaluation, that such controls and procedures were effective at ensuring that required information will be disclosed in Argo-Tech’s reports filed under the Exchange Act as of May 1, 2004.

(b) Changes in internal controls. There were no changes in Argo-Tech’s internal control over financial reporting or in other factors during the quarter ended May 1, 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Argo-Tech’s internal control over financial reporting.
