P&F INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contained herein include the accounts of P&F Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“P&F”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

P&F conducts its business operations through two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”) and Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”). P&F and its subsidiaries are herein referred to collectively as the “Company.” In addition, the words “we”, “our” and “us” refer to the Company.

Further, P&F operates in two primary lines of business, or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”).

Tools

We conduct our Tools business through Continental, which in turn currently operates through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc. (“Hy-Tech”).

Florida Pneumatic is engaged in the importation, manufacture and sale of pneumatic hand tools, primarily for the industrial, retail and automotive markets, and the importation and sale of compressor air filters. Florida Pneumatic also markets, through its Berkley Tool division (“Berkley”), a line of pipe cutting and threading tools, wrenches and replacement electrical components for a widely-used brand of pipe cutting and threading machines. In addition, through its Franklin Manufacturing (“Franklin”) division, Florida Pneumatic imports a line of door and window hardware. In February 2007, Hy-Tech acquired substantially all of the operating assets of Hy-Tech Machine, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation, and Quality Gear & Machine, Inc. and certain real property from HTM Associates. Hy-Tech is primarily engaged in the manufacture and distribution of pneumatic tools and parts for industrial applications.

Hardware

We conduct our Hardware business through a wholly owned subsidiary, Countrywide Hardware Inc. (“Countrywide”), which in turn operates through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”), Woodmark International, L.P. (“Woodmark”) and Pacific Stair Products, Inc. (“Pacific Stair”).

Nationwide is an importer and manufacturer of door, window and fencing hardware. Woodmark is an importer of builders’ hardware, including staircase components and kitchen and bath hardware and accessories. Pacific Stair manufactures premium stair rail products and distributes Woodmark’s staircase components to the building industry, primarily in southern California and the southwestern region of the United States.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Embassy Industries, Inc. (“Embassy”), was engaged in the manufacture and sale of baseboard heating products and the importation and sale of radiant heating systems until it exited that business in October 2005 through the sale of substantially all of its non-real estate assets. Embassy sold its real estate assets in June 2007. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Green

Manufacturing, Inc. (“Green”), was primarily engaged in the manufacture, development and sale of heavy-duty welded custom designed hydraulic cylinders, a line of access equipment for the petro-chemical industry and a line of post hole digging equipment for the agricultural industry until it exited those businesses between December 2004 and July 2005. The assets and liabilities and results of operations of Embassy and Green have been segregated and reported separately as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Note 13 to the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements presents financial information for the segments of the Company’s business.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, these unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

The results of operations for Embassy and Green have been segregated from continuing operations and are reflected on the consolidated condensed statements of earnings as discontinued operations.

The unaudited consolidated condensed balance sheet information as of December 31, 2007 was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. The interim financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with that Report.

In preparing its unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical data and experience, when available, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the combined results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is based only on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the effect of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of options, unless the effect on earnings is antidilutive.

Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options or warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2008		2007
Numerator:
Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per common share:
Earnings from continuing operations	$	350,000	$	147,000
Discontinued operations, net of taxes	12,000		(21,000		)
Net earnings	$	362,000	$	126,000
Denominator:
Denominator for basic earnings per share – weighted average common shares outstanding	3,637,462		3,581,522
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options	37,773		220,657
Denominator for diluted earnings per share – adjusted weighted average common shares and assumed conversions	3,675,235		3,802,179

At March 31, 2008 and 2007 and during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, there were outstanding stock options whose exercise prices were higher than the average market values of the underlying Class A Common Stock for the period. These options are antidilutive and are excluded from the computation of earnings per share. The weighted average antidilutive stock options outstanding were as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2008	2007
Weighted average antidilutive stock options outstanding	271,500	29,500

NOTE 3 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based Compensation

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“Statement 123(R)”), which revises FASB SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, and supersedes APB Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. Statement 123(R) requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value of our stock-based compensation awards, including employee stock options.

The Company did not grant any stock options or warrants during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

As a result of adopting Statement 123(R), the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 of approximately $47,000 and $6,000, respectively. Compensation expense is recognized in the selling, general and administrative expenses line item of the Company’s statements of earnings on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods. There are no capitalized stock-based compensation costs at either March 31, 2008 or 2007. The

adoption of Statement 123(R) had no material impact on our basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three-month March 31, 2007. However, the adoption of Statement 123(R) affected the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, by reductions to diluted earnings per share of $47,000. The Company recognizes compensation cost over the requisite service period. However, the exercisability of the respective non-vested options, which are at pre-determined dates on a calendar year, do not necessarily correspond to the period(s) in which straight-line amortization of compensation cost is recorded. As of March 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $157,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested awards granted under our share-based plans, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

The Company did not receive any cash during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 from an exercise of stock options, but did receive cash of approximately $49,000 from options exercised during the three-month period ended March 31, 2007. The impact of the cash receipts is included in financing activities in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of cash flows. Statement 123(R) requires that cash flows from tax benefits attributable to tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) be classified as financing cash flows.

Stock Option Plan

The Company’s 2002 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Current Plan”) authorizes the issuance, to employees and directors, of options to purchase a maximum of 1,100,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. These options must be issued within ten years of the effective date of the Plan and are exercisable for a ten year period from the date of grant, at prices not less than 100% of the market value of the Class A Common Stock on the date the option is granted. Incentive stock options granted to any 10% stockholder are exercisable for a five year period from the date of grant, at prices not less than 110% of the market value of the Class A Common Stock on the date the option is granted. Pursuant to the Current Plan, the Stock Option Committee has the discretion to award non-qualified stock option grants. Options have vesting periods of immediate to three years. In the event options granted contain a vesting schedule over a period of years, the Company recognizes compensation cost for these awards on a straight-line basis over the service period. The Current Plan, which terminates in 2012, is the successor to the Company’s 1992 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Prior Plan”).

The following is a summary of the changes in outstanding options for the three months ended March 31, 2008:

	Option Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding, January 1, 2008	533,436		$	8.58	4.5
Granted
Exercised
Forfeited
Expired	(152,500	)	7.88
Outstanding, March 31, 2008	380,936		$	8.86	6.0	—

Vested, March 31, 2008	323,530		$	8.53	5.7	—

The following is a summary of changes in non-vested shares for the three months ended March 31, 2008:

	Option Shares	Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Non-vested shares, January 1, 2008	71,827	$	5.20
Granted	—
Vested	14,421	3.43
Forfeited	—
Non-vested shares, March 31, 2008	57,406	$	5.65

The number of shares of Class A common stock reserved for stock options available for issuance under the Current Plan as of March 31, 2008 was 590,900. Of the options outstanding at March 31, 2008, 366,936 were issued under the Current Plan and 14,000 were issued under the Prior Plan.

NOTE 4 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

New Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 provides a new single authoritative definition of fair value and provides enhanced guidance for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities and requires additional disclosures related to the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS 157 is effective as of January 1, 2008. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, ‘‘The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities, Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115’’, (‘‘SFAS 159’’). This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of fiscal 2008. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 110, Share Based Payment, which amends SAB 107, Share Based Payment, to permit public companies, under certain circumstances, to use the simplified method in SAB 107 for employee option grants after December 31, 2007. Use of the simplified method after December 2007 is permitted only for companies whose historical data about their employees’ exercise behavior does not provide a reasonable basis for estimating the expected term of the options. We currently use the simplified method to estimate the expected term for employee option grants as adequate historical experience is not available to provide a reasonable estimate. SAB 110 is effective for employee options granted after December 31, 2007. We adopted SAB 110 effective January 1, 2008 and continue applying the simplified method until enough historical experience is readily available to provide a reasonable estimate of the expected term for employee option grants.

The acquirer will recognize in income any gain or loss on the remeasurement to acquisition-date fair value of consideration transferred or of previously acquired equity interests in the acquiree. Neither the direct costs incurred to effect a business combination nor the costs the acquirer expects to incur under a plan to restructure an acquired business will be included as part of the business combination accounting. As a result, those costs will be charged to expense when incurred, except for debt or equity issuance costs, which will be accounted for in accordance with other generally accepted accounting principles. Statement 141R will also change the accounting for contingent consideration, in process research and development, contingencies, and restructuring costs. In addition, changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties in a business combination that occur after the measurement period will impact income taxes under Statement 141R. Statement 141R is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. We intend to adopt Statement 141R effective January 1, 2009 and apply its provisions prospectively. We are evaluating the impact that the adoption of Statement 141R will have on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements: an amendment of ARB No. 51. The new Statement changes the accounting for, and the financial statement presentation of, non-controlling equity interests in a consolidated subsidiary. Statement 160 replaces the existing minority interest provisions of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, by defining a new term—non-controlling interests—to replace what were previously called minority interests. The new standard establishes non-controlling interests as a component of the equity of a consolidated entity. The underlying principle of the new standard is that both the controlling interest and the non-controlling interests are part of the equity of a single economic entity: the consolidated reporting entity. Classifying non-controlling interests as a component of consolidated equity is a change from the current practice of treating minority interests as a mezzanine item between liabilities and equity or as a liability. The change affects both the accounting and financial reporting for non-controlling interests in a consolidated subsidiary. Statement 160 includes reporting requirements intended to clearly identify and differentiate the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. The reporting requirements are required to be applied retrospectively. Statement 160 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. We intend to adopt Statement 160 effective January 1, 2009 and apply its provisions prospectively. We will also present comparative financial statements that reflect the retrospective application of the disclosure and presentation provisions when it applies the requirements of Statement 160. We are evaluating the impact that the adoption of Statement 160 will have on its financial statements.

NOTE 5 – ACQUISITION

Hy-Tech Machine, Inc.

On February 14, 2007, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Hy-Tech APA”) effective as of February 12, 2007, Hy-Tech, acquired substantially all of the assets (the “Hy-Tech Purchased Property”) of Hy-Tech Machine, Inc., and Quality Gear & Machine, Inc., (collectively, the “Hy-Tech Sellers”). The purchase price consisted of $16,900,000 in cash, subject to adjustments, plus the assumption of certain payables and liabilities and the obligation to make certain contingent payments based on factors described in the Hy-Tech APA. The purchase price was negotiated on the basis of the Hy-Tech Sellers’ historical financial performance. The Hy-Tech Purchased Property was used by the Hy-Tech Sellers in the business of, among other things, manufacturing and selling pneumatic tools and other tool products.

In connection with this acquisition, Hy-Tech entered into an Agreement of Sale with HTM Associates, a Pennsylvania general partnership comprised of certain shareholders of the Hy-Tech Sellers (“HTM”), pursuant to which Hy-Tech purchased certain real property located in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania from HTM for $2,200,000 in cash.

The Company also agreed to make additional payments (“Contingent Consideration”) to the Hy-Tech Sellers. The amount of Contingent Consideration is to be based on a percentage of the average increase in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) over a two-year period from the date of acquisition, over a base year EBITDA of $4,473,000. In addition, the Company has agreed to make a further additional payment (“Additional Contingent Consideration”), subject to certain conditions related to an exclusive supply agreement with a major customer and, to a certain extent and subject to certain provisions, the achievement of Contingent Consideration. This Additional Contingent Consideration may not exceed $1,900,000. Any such additional payments for Contingent Consideration or Additional Contingent Consideration, if any, would be payable on or about ninety days subsequent to the second anniversary of the acquisition date and will be treated by the Company as additions to goodwill.

The following table summarizes, on an unaudited pro forma basis, the combined results of operations of the Company and Hy-Tech as though the acquisition transaction had occurred as of January 1, 2007. The pro forma amounts give effect to appropriate adjustments for amortization of intangible assets, interest expense and income taxes. The pro forma amounts presented are not necessarily indicative of either the actual consolidated operating results had the acquisition transaction occurred as of January 1, 2007 or of future consolidated operating results.

NOTE 6 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Embassy Industries, Inc.

Pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Embassy APA”), dated as of October 11, 2005, among P&F, Embassy, Mestek, Inc. (“Mestek”) and Embassy Manufacturing, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Mestek (“EMI”), Embassy sold substantially all of its operating assets to EMI. Certain assets were retained by Embassy, including, but not limited to, cash and title to any real property owned by Embassy at the consummation of the sale to EMI. Embassy has effectively ceased all operating activities.

On July 24, 2006, Embassy received a letter (the “Purchaser Letter”) from counsel to J. D’Addario & Company, Inc., a New York corporation (“Purchaser”), purporting to terminate that certain contract entered into by Embassy and Purchaser on January 13, 2006 (the “Agreement”, and as amended, the “Contract of Sale”). Pursuant to the Contract of Sale, Embassy agreed to sell its Farmingdale, New York premises (the “Farmingdale Premises”) to Purchaser for a purchase price of $6,403,000.

The Purchaser Letter purports to terminate the Contract of Sale based upon Purchaser’s assertion that Embassy had not satisfied certain requirements and demands that the escrow agent return the Embassy Industries, Inc. down-payment with accrued interest, and that Purchaser be reimbursed for the costs of survey and title examination.

Embassy informed Purchaser that its purported termination of the Contract of Sale was in default of its obligation to consummate the purchase of the Farmingdale Premises under the terms of the Contract of Sale. On August 2, 2006, Purchaser instituted an action against Embassy in the Supreme Court of the

State of New York, County of Suffolk, for breach of contract and return of down-payment, seeking $650,000, together with costs of title and survey and interest thereon, and the cost of the action. The down-payment remains in escrow pending resolution of this matter. Embassy believes the action is without merit and intends to vigorously defend it.

In June 2007, Embassy sold this property to an unrelated third party, receiving approximately $6,300,000 from the sale, used the after-tax proceeds from the sale to satisfy the mortgage on the building of approximately $1,200,000 and to reduce its long-term debt. The Company recorded a pre-tax gain from this sale of approximately $5,100,000.

Green

Green was primarily engaged in the manufacture, development and sale of heavy-duty welded custom designed hydraulic cylinders sold for use as integrated components on a variety of equipment and machinery manufactured by others. Green also manufactured a line of access equipment for the petro chemical and bulk storage industries. This product line consisted of bridges, platforms, walkways and stairways, constructed of steel or aluminum and generally installed outdoors. In addition, Green marketed a small line of diggers used primarily as attachments to small tractors for light farm work. This product line was marketed through farm equipment dealers and wholesalers. We sold the principal assets of Green between December 2004 and July 2005 in three transactions pursuant to three separate asset purchase agreements with non-affiliated third parties. During 2008 and 2007, Green received commission income from one of the non-affiliated third parties. These amounts are included in the earnings from discontinued operations.

The following amounts pertain to the Company’s discontinued operations and have been segregated from the Company’s continuing operations and are reported as assets held for sale and assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the consolidated condensed balance sheets:

The weighted average amortization period for intangible assets was 12.9 years at March 31, 2008 and 13.1 years at December 31, 2007.

NOTE 10 - WARRANTY LIABILITY

The Company offers to its customers warranties against product defects for periods primarily ranging from one to three years, with certain faucet hardware having a limited lifetime warranty, depending on the specific product and terms of the customer purchase agreement. The Company’s typical warranties require it to repair or replace the defective products during the warranty period at no cost to the customer. At the time the product revenue is recognized, the Company records a liability for estimated costs under its warranties, which costs are estimated based on historical experience. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the amounts as necessary. While the Company believes that its estimated liability for product warranties is adequate, the estimated liability for the product warranties could differ materially from future actual warranty costs.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability, included in other accrued liabilities, were as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2008			2007
Balance, beginning of period	$	552,000		$	368,000
Warranties issued and changes in estimated pre-existing warranties	268,000			273,000
Actual warranty costs incurred	(459,000		)	(264,000		)
Balance, end of period	$	361,000		$	377,000

NOTE 11 – BANK DEBT

The Company entered into a credit agreement, as amended, with two banks in 2004. This agreement includes a revolving credit loan facility, which provides a total of $18,000,000 for direct borrowings, with various sublimits for letters of credit, bankers’ acceptances and equipment loans. There are no commitment fees for any unused portion of this credit facility. The credit agreement, as amended, expires in June 2008 and is subject to annual review by the lending banks. Direct borrowings under the revolving credit loan facility are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, inventory and equipment and are cross-guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries. These borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) plus the currently applicable loan margin, or the prime interest rate. At both March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the applicable loan margin added to LIBOR was 1.75%. At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the balances outstanding on the revolving credit loan facility were $15,500,000 and $8,000,000, respectively.

The Company’s credit agreement also includes a term loan facility, which provided a maximum commitment of $34,000,000 to finance acquisitions subject to the approval of the lending banks. In connection with the acquisition of Hy-Tech in February 2007, the Company executed and delivered an amendment to the credit agreement, which, among other things, added Continental and Hy-Tech as additional co-borrowers and provided for new term loans in amounts not to exceed $19,000,000. There are no commitment fees for any unused portion of this credit facility. Borrowings under the term loan facility are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, inventory and equipment and are cross-guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries. These borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR plus the currently applicable loan margin, or the prime interest rate. At both March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the applicable loan margin added to LIBOR was 2.00%.

In 2004, the Company borrowed $29,000,000 against the term loan facility to finance the Woodmark acquisition transaction, and there was $8,850,000 and $9,800,000 outstanding against this term loan at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. In 2007, the Company borrowed $19,000,000 against the term loan facility to finance the Hy-Tech acquisition transaction. During 2007, the Company paid down $5,000,000 against the Hy-Tech term loan. In January 2008, the Company paid down an additional $5,000,000 against this term loan, through additional borrowings on the revolving credit loan facility. There was $8,640,000 and $14,000,000 outstanding against this term loan at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. The principal amounts on these term loans are payable in quarterly installments of $950,000 and $360,000, respectively, over the term of the respective loans

The credit agreement also includes a foreign exchange line, which provides for the availability of up to $10,000,000 in foreign currency forward contracts. These contracts fix the exchange rate on future purchases of foreign currencies needed for payments to foreign suppliers. The total amount of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding under the foreign exchange line at March 31, 2008, based on that day’s closing spot rate, was approximately $5,000.

Under the terms of the credit agreement, the Company is required to adhere to certain financial covenants. At March 31, 2008, the Company was not in compliance with certain financial covenants. Subsequent to March 31, 2008, the Company and the banks executed Amendment No.11 and Waiver to Credit Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the banks waived compliance with such financial covenants at March 31, 2008, and amended certain financial covenants for future periods. Accordingly the Company has not reclassified to current liabilities the long-term portions of its bank debts. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to comply with such covenants in the future.

NOTE 12—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The president of one of our subsidiaries is part owner of one of the subsidiary’s vendors. During the three month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, we purchased approximately $325,000 and $17,000 of product from this vendor. All transactions are conducted at arms length.

NOTE 13 - BUSINESS SEGMENTS

P&F operates in two primary lines of business, or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”).. For reporting purposes, Florida Pneumatic and Hy-Tech are combined in the Tools segment, while Woodmark, Pacific Stair and Nationwide are combined in the Hardware segment. Results for Hy-Tech have been included since its acquisition date. The Company evaluates segment performance based primarily on segment operating income. The accounting policies of each of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1.

The following presents financial information by segment for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

P&F INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

General

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Reform Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of P&F Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (“P&F”, or “the Company”). P&F and its representatives may, from time to time, make written or verbal forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in its reports to stockholders. Generally, the inclusion of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “will,” and their opposites and similar expressions identify statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that are intended to come within the safe harbor protection provided by those sections. Any forward-looking statements contained herein, including those related to the Company’s future performance, are based upon the Company’s historical performance and on current plans, estimates and expectations. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties could cause the Company’s actual results for the 2008 fiscal year and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by or on behalf of the Company for a number of reasons, as previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 in response to Item 1A. to Part I of Form 10-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Business

Further, P&F operates in two primary lines of business, or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”).

Tools

Hardware

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Embassy Industries, Inc. (“Embassy”), was engaged in the manufacture and sale of baseboard heating products and the importation and sale of radiant heating systems until it exited that business in October 2005 through the sale of substantially all of its non-real estate assets. Embassy sold its real estate assets in June 2007. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Green Manufacturing, Inc. (“Green”), was primarily engaged in the manufacture, development and sale of heavy-duty welded custom designed hydraulic cylinders, a line of access equipment for the petro-chemical industry and a line of post hole digging equipment for the agricultural industry until it exited those businesses between December 2004 and July 2005. The assets and liabilities and results of operations of Embassy and Green have been segregated and reported separately as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Overview

The significant factors listed below, which affected our results for the three-month period ending March 31, 2008 are discussed in further detain in Results of Operations section:

· Reporting Hy-Tech’s results of operations for a full three- month period in 2008 compared to approximately one and a half months for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, had a positive affect on our revenue and income from operations;

· The on-going down-turn in the new home construction sector of the nation’s economy continues to have an adverse affect on Countrywide’s operating performance;

· Consolidated gross margins increased slightly by 0.5% when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007;

· Selling and general & administrative expenses decreased $343,000 or 5%; and

· Net interest expense decreased $94,000.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain of these accounting policies require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets and warranty reserves. We base our estimates on historical data and experience, when available, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the combined results of which form the basis for making judgments about the

carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those discussed in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

ACQUISITION

Results of operations are included in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements from the date of acquisition.

Hy-Tech Machine, Inc.

On February 14, 2007, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Hy-Tech APA”) effective as of February 12, 2007, Hy-Tech, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Continental, acquired substantially all of the assets (the “Hy-Tech Purchased Property”) of Hy-Tech Machine, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation, and Quality Gear & Machine, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (collectively, the “Hy-Tech Sellers”). The purchase price consisted of $16,900,000 in cash, subject to adjustments, plus the assumption of certain payables and liabilities and the obligation to make certain contingent payments based on factors described in the Hy-Tech APA. The purchase price was negotiated on the basis of the Hy-Tech Sellers’ historical financial performance. The Hy-Tech Purchased Property was used by the Hy-Tech Sellers in the business of, among other things, manufacturing and selling pneumatic tools and other tool products.

In connection with this acquisition, Hy-Tech contemporaneously entered into an Agreement of Sale with HTM Associates, a Pennsylvania general partnership comprised of certain shareholders of the Hy-Tech Sellers (“HTM”), pursuant to which Hy-Tech purchased certain real property located in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania from HTM for $2,200,000 in cash. The acquisition of the Hy-Tech Purchased Property and the real property was financed through our Company’s senior credit facility.

We also agreed to make additional payments (“Contingent Consideration”) to the Sellers. The amount of Contingent Consideration is to be based on a percentage of the average increase in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) over a two-year period from the date of acquisition, over a base year EBITDA of $4,473,000. In addition, we agreed to make a further additional payment (“Additional Contingent Consideration”), subject to certain conditions related to an exclusive supply agreement with a major customer and, to a certain extent and subject to certain provisions, the achievement of Contingent Consideration. This Additional Contingent Consideration may not exceed $1,900,000. Any such additional payments for Contingent Consideration or Additional Contingent Consideration, if any, would be payable on or about ninety days subsequent to the second anniversary of the acquisition date and will be treated as additions to goodwill.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Green

Embassy

Embassy was engaged in the manufacture and sale of baseboard heating products, sold nationally for use in hot-water heating systems installed in single family homes, multi-unit dwellings and commercial and industrial buildings. Embassy’s products were sold principally to wholesalers by manufacturers’ representatives and in-house sales personnel. Embassy’s products were also sold to other manufacturers for incorporation into their products and for distribution on a private label basis. Embassy also imported a line of radiant heating systems. These systems include the tubing, manifolds, controls and installation supplies. Embassy also provided computer software that aids in the design of the system. In October 2005, Embassy sold substantially all of its operating assets, including, among others, machinery and equipment, inventory, accounts receivable and certain intangibles, to a non-affiliated third party. In June 2007, Embassy sold the real property to a different non-affiliated third party.

The following amounts related to discontinued operations have been segregated from the Company’s continuing operations and are reported as assets held for sale and assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the consolidated condensed balance sheets:

The acquisition of Hy-Tech, consummated as of February 12, 2007, continues to provide a positive impact. As illustrated above, Hy-Tech provided an increase of $2.2 million of revenue to the Tools segment when compared to the three-month period in 2007.

Offsetting the above mentioned increase we encountered a reduction in revenue at Florida Pneumatic of $527,000. Primary factors contributing to the decrease at Florida Pneumatic include: (i) a net reduction in retail revenue of $365,000, a portion of which was due to the wind-down of The Home Depot business; and (ii) our Franklin hardware product line revenue decreased $281,000, primarily the result of the loss of The Home Depot business, which for Franklin commenced in mid-2007. It should be noted however, that we believe the loss of The Home Depot business should not materially affect overall operating margins. The above declines in product line revenues were offset by increases reported at our Berkley line of $74,000, and our industrial products line of $85,000.

As a result of the continued weakness in the new home construction market which is the principal driver for the Hardware segment, revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 decreased an aggregate of $2,307,000 when compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2007. Woodmark’s revenue continues to be hard hit reporting an aggregate decrease of $2,078,000. Within Woodmark, revenue from the sale of its stair parts and accessories decreased $1,937,000. Additionally, Woodmark’s kitchen/bath product line witnessed a decrease in revenue of $140,000 do to a lagging recreational vehicle market, the loss of a large customer, as well as the current economic conditions. Nationwide’s revenue increased approximately $239,000, primarily the result of the launching of a number of new products in our fencing product line where revenue increased $538,000 when comparing the three-month periods ending March 31, 2008 and 2007. Nationwide’s revenue for OEM products and patio products decreased $222,000 and $77,000, respectively. We anticipate that competitive pressures and cost increases from our foreign suppliers may reduce the impact of our new products. Pacific Stair’s decrease in revenue of approximately $468,000 is primarily attributable to continuing decline in the new home construction market in southern California and Arizona.

All revenues are generated in U.S. dollars and are not impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Gross Margins / Profits

Gross profits for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007:

Three months ended March 31,		Consolidated			Tools			Hardware
2008	Gross Profit	$	7,672,000		$	4,411,000		$	3,261,000
	Gross Margin	31.5		%	33.2		%	29.5		%

2007	Gross Profit	$	7,748,000		$	3,713,000		$	4,035,000
	Gross Margin	31.0		%	32.0		%	30.2		%

Gross margins in the Tools segment increased 1.2% from 32.0% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 to 33.2% reported for the three-months ended March 31, 2008. Gross profit for this segment increased $698,000. When comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 gross margins at Florida Pneumatic increased 0.6% points primarily as the result of a reduction in the fees paid to an overseas trading partner. However when taken in conjunction with the decrease in revenue, Florida Pneumatics’ gross profit declined approximately $100,000. The acquisition in February 2007 of Hy-Tech favorably impacted the Tools segment’s gross profit, as we included Hy-Tech for the full three-month period ended March 31, 2008 compared to approximately one and a half months during the same period in the prior year. Hy-Tech’s gross profit for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 was $1,708,000 compared to $909,000 reported in the previous year. However, Hy-Tech’s gross margin declined 3.0% when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, primarily the result in increased raw material and labor costs.

Gross profit for the Hardware segment continues to be adversely affected by the down-turn in the home construction; decreasing $774,000 from $4,035,000 reported for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 to $3,261,000 for the same period in 2008. Gross margin percentage for the Hardware segment decreased 0.7% during the same periods. Specifically, gross margins for our stair parts business at Woodmark increased 0.8%, while kitchen & bath product line decreased 0.5%. The gross margin percentage decrease was mitigated primarily due to a favorable product mix as a greater percentage of stair parts shipments were generated from its warehouse which generally provide higher margins compared to direct shipments from overseas. As discuss earlier, while Nationwide was able to increase revenue this quarter compared to the same three-month period in 2007, its gross margins slipped 1.5% to 35.4% for the three-months ended March 31, 2008, primarily the result of price reductions caused by competitive pressures. Additionally we absorbed cost increases from Asian suppliers for which we were not able to pass through to our customers. Our gross margin at Pacific Stair was severely impacted, decreasing 24.0% from 12.0% reported for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 to a deficit of 12.0% reported for the same period in 2008, essentially due to the inability to reduce fixed overhead costs as sales levels decreased.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses, (“SG&A”) include salaries and related costs, commissions, travel, administrative facilities, communications costs and promotional expenses for our direct sales and marketing staff, administrative and executive salaries and related benefits, legal, accounting and other professional fees as well as general corporate overhead and certain engineering expenses.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, SG&A decreased $343,000 or 5.0% when compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2007. While SG&A expenses this quarter reflect a full three-months of Hy-Tech operating expenses, compared to approximately one and one half months during the same three-month period in 2007, we were able to reduce SG&A as a percentage of revenue to 26.8% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, compared to 27.5% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007. Excluding the impact of Hy-Tech, where SG&A increased approximately $181,000 due to a full three-months in the first quarter of 2008, our remaining SG&A decreased $525,000. Savings aggregating approximately $240,000 in freight-out, warranty costs and advertising primarily the result of the wind-down of our business with The Home Depot, is a primary component of the reduction in our SG&A expenses. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 we received $165,000, in reimbursement of legal fees and other costs related to the settlement of formerly outstanding litigation. Additionally, certain intangible assets related to our acquisition of Nationwide were fully amortized during 2007, resulting in a reduction of amortization expense of $133,000 when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. As the result of the impairment of certain intangible assets during the fourth quarter of 2007, our amortization for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 was approximately $22,000 lower than the amount recorded during the same three-month period in the prior year.

Interest - Net

Net interest expense incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 of $558,000, reflects a decrease of $94,000, or 14.4% compared to $652,000 which was incurred during the same three-month period in the prior year. Interest expense on borrowings under the term loan associated with the Woodmark acquisition decreased by approximately $79,000 due primarily to overall lower interest rates in effect during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 compared to the applicable interest rates in place during the three months ended March 31, 2007. Interest expense associated with the above loan was further reduced due to a lower principal balance. Interest expense incurred in association with the Hy-Tech term loan of $175,000 decreased $11,000 when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 to 2007. The causal affects of this interest expense reduction were: (i) the term loan was in place for the full three-month period in 2008 compared to only approximately one and one half months during the first quarter of 2007, the average interest rates in effect during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 were lower than the average interest rates in effect during the period commencing February 12, 2007, the effective date of the acquisition of Hy-Tech in 2008 and March 31, 2007 were lower; and (ii) during the fourth quarter of 2007 we paid down $5,000,000 of this term loan. Interest expense on borrowings under our revolving credit loan facility increased by approximately $59,000, as higher average borrowings occurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to our pay-down of long term debt discussed above with short term debt of $5,000,000. During 2007 we paid in full, notes payable to the former owners of Woodmark, which resulted in a reduction in interest expense of $43,000 when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. Interest expense incurred on our trade financing decreased 17,000 when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 to 2007. Interest income improved by $7,000 when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 to 2007.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rates applicable to earnings from continuing operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were 42.1% and 39.5%, respectively. The effective tax rate increase of 2.6% is primarily due to higher state taxes as well as certain expenses incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 which were not deductible for tax purposes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our cash flows from operations can be somewhat cyclical, typically with the greatest demand in

the second and third quarters followed by positive cash flows in the fourth quarter as receivables and inventories trend down. Due to our strong asset base, predictable cash flows and favorable banking relationships, we believe we have adequate access to capital, if and when needed. Additionally, we monitor average days sales outstanding, inventory turns and capital expenditures to project liquidity needs and evaluate return on assets employed.

We gauge our liquidity and financial stability by various measurements some of which are shown in the following table:

	March 31, 2008		December 31, 2007
Working Capital	$	19,440,000	$	24,000,000
Current Ratio	1.65 to 1		1.95 to 1
Shareholders’ Equity	$	38,395,000	$	37,986,000

total amount of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding under the foreign exchange line at March 31, 2008, based on that day’s closing spot rate, was approximately $5,000.

Embassy participated in a multi employer pension plan until it sold substantially all of its operating assets in October 2005. This plan provided defined benefits to all of its union workers. Contributions to this plan were determined by the union contract. Embassy does not administer the plan funds and does not have any control over the plan funds. As a result of Embassy’s withdrawal from the plan, it recorded the net present value of a withdrawal liability of approximately $369,000, which is payable in quarterly installments of approximately $8,200 from May 2006 through February 2026. The balance at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was 340,000 and $342,000, respectively and is reported in Liabilities of Discontinued Operations. Further, in connection with our sale of Embassy, we recorded the net present value of a receivable of approximately $90,000, which is scheduled to be collected at approximately $8,200 per quarter from May 2006 through May 2009.

Cash decreased $245,000, from $1,334,000 as of December 31, 2007 to $1,089,000 as of March 31, 2008. Our debt levels increased from $34,050,000 at December 31, 2007 to $35,174,000 at March 31, 2008, due primarily to increased short-term borrowings necessary to fund a build-up in our seasonal inventory during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008. The total percent of debt to total book capitalization (debt plus equity) increased from 47.3% at December 31, 2007 to 47.8% at March 31, 2008.

Cash used in operating activities of continuing operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were approximately $1,181,000, and $3,137,000, respectively. We believe that cash on hand derived from operations and cash available through borrowings under our credit facilities will be sufficient to allow us to meet our foreseeable working capital needs.

Capital spending was approximately $189,000 and $207,000 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Capital expenditures for the balance of 2008 are expected to be approximately $900,000, some of which may be financed through our credit facilities. Included in the expected total for 2008 are capital expenditures relating to new products, expansion of existing product lines and replacement of equipment.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Our foreign exchange line provides for the availability of up to $10,000,000 in foreign currency forward contracts. These contracts fix the exchange rate on future purchases of foreign currencies needed for payments to foreign suppliers. We have not purchased forward contracts on New Taiwan dollars (“TWD”). The total amount of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding at March 31, 2008, based on that day’s closing spot rate, was approximately $5,000.

A majority of our products are manufactured outside the United States, of which a significant amount is purchased in the local currency. As a result, we are exposed to movements in the exchange rates of various currencies against the United States dollar which could have an

adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. We believe our most significant foreign currency exposures are the Japanese yen, the Taiwan dollar (“TWD”) and the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). Purchases of product from China and Taiwan are made in U.S. dollars. However, if either or both the TWD or RMB, were to strengthen materially in relation to the U.S. dollar, there could be an adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial position. We are also subject to currency risk with respect to the Yen; however we generally purchase Yen forward to mitigate the exposure.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (Statement 141R) to change how an entity accounts for the acquisition of a business. When effective, Statement 141R will replace existing Statement 141 in our entirety. Statement 141R carries forward the existing requirements to account for all business combinations using the acquisition method (formerly called the purchase method). In general, Statement 141R will require acquisition-date fair value measurement of identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests in the acquiree. Statement 141R will eliminate the current cost based purchase method under Statement 141. The new measurement requirements will result in the recognition of the full amount of acquisition-date goodwill, which includes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests. The acquirer will recognize in income any gain or loss on the remeasurement to acquisition-date fair value of consideration transferred or of previously acquired equity interests in the acquiree. Neither the direct costs incurred to effect a business combination nor the costs the acquirer expects to incur under a plan to restructure an acquired business will be included as part of the business combination accounting. As a result, those costs will be charged to expense when incurred, except for debt or equity issuance costs, which will be accounted for in accordance with other generally accepted accounting principles. Statement 141R will also change the accounting for contingent consideration,

in process research and development, contingencies, and restructuring costs. In addition, changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties in a business combination that occur after the measurement period will impact income taxes under Statement 141R. Statement 141R is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. We intend to adopt Statement 141R effective January 1, 2009 and apply our provisions prospectively. We are evaluating the impact that the adoption of Statement 141R will have on our financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

An evaluation was performed, under the supervision of, and with the participation of, our management including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2008 were effective. Accordingly, management believes that the consolidated condensed financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

P&F management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal controls. Because of our inherent limitations, internal controls may not prevent or detect misstatements. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness as to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.

The Certifications of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer included as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, in paragraph 4 of such certifications, information concerning our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Such certifications should be read in conjunction with the information contained in this Item 4 - Controls and Procedures for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by such certifications.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
