NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2012

(Dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts)

NOTE A — Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts in the prior years’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

NOTE B — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU No. 2011-05 amends existing guidance by allowing only two options for presenting components of net income and other comprehensive income: (1) in a single continuous financial statement, statement of comprehensive income or (2) in two separate but consecutive financial statements, consisting of an income statement followed by a separate statement on other comprehensive income. Also, items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income must be presented on the face of the financial statements. ASU No. 2011-05 requires retrospective application, and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, deferring its requirements that companies present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income in both net income and other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. Entities continue to be required to present amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements or disclose those amounts in the notes to the financial statements. The requirement to present reclassification adjustments in interim periods was also deferred. However, entities are required to report a total for comprehensive income in condensed financial statements of interim periods in a single continuous statement or in two consecutive statements. The FASB is reconsidering the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments. The Company adopted ASU No. 2011-5 in the first quarter of 2012 and elected to present the components of net income and comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive statements.

NOTE C — Segments

On March 23, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Fluid Routing Solutions Holding Corp. (“FRS”), a leading manufacturer of automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic hose products and fuel filler and hydraulic fluid assemblies for the automotive and industrial industries. FRS will expand the Company’s sales of assembled components.

During the second quarter of 2012, as a result of the FRS acquisition, the Company realigned its segments in order to better align its business with the underlying markets and customers that the Company serves. In so doing, we combined Aluminum Products, Rubber Products (previously included in the former Manufactured Products segment), and Delo Screw Products (previously included in the Supply Technologies segment) along with FRS to form the Assembly Components segment. The former Manufactured Products segment will now be referred to as Engineered Products. The results of operations of FRS from the date of the acquisition through September 30, 2012 are included in the Assembly Components segment. The business segment results for the prior year have been reclassified to reflect these changes. Following is a description of each of our three reportable segments.

Supply Technologies provides our customers with Total Supply Management^TM services for a broad range of high-volume, specialty production components. Total Supply Management^TM manages the efficiencies of every aspect of supplying

production parts and materials to our customers’ manufacturing floor, from strategic planning to program implementation, and includes such services as engineering and design support, part usage and cost analysis, supplier selection, quality assurance, bar coding, product packaging and tracking, just-in-time and point-of-use delivery, electronic billing services and ongoing technical support. Assembly Components manufactures cast aluminum components, automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic products, fuel filler and hydraulic assemblies for automotive, agricultural equipment, construction equipment, heavy-duty truck and marine equipment industries. Assembly Components also provides value-added services such as design and engineering, machining and assembly. Engineered Products operates a diverse group of niche manufacturing businesses that design and manufacture a broad range of high quality products engineered for specific customer applications.

The Company primarily evaluates performance and allocates resources based on segment operating income as well as projected future performance. Segment operating income is defined as revenues less expenses identifiable to the product lines included within each segment. Segment operating income reconciles to consolidated income before income taxes by deducting corporate costs and other income or expense items that are not attributed to the segments and net interest expense.

Results by business segment were as follows:

NOTE F — Net Income Per Common Share

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


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
NUMERATOR
Net income	$	10,728	$	2,870	$	24,127	$	10,492

DENOMINATOR
Denominator for basic earnings per share — weighted average shares		12,003		11,600		11,907		11,536
Effect of dilutive securities:
Employee stock options and restricted stock		172		412		202		468

Denominator for diluted earnings per share — weighted average shares and assumed conversions		12,175		12,012		12,109		12,004

Amounts per common share:
Basic	$	0.89	$	0.25	$	2.03	$	0.91
Diluted	$	0.88	$	0.24	$	1.99	$	0.87

Basic earnings per common share is computed as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

Outstanding stock options with exercise prices greater than the average price of the common shares are anti-dilutive and are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. Stock options on 20 shares were excluded in the three months ended September 30, 2012, because they were anti-dilutive. There were no stock options that were anti-dilutive in the three months ended September 30, 2011. Stock options on 40 and 20 shares were excluded in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, because they were anti-dilutive.

NOTE G — Stock-Based Compensation

Total stock compensation expense recorded in the first nine months of 2012 and 2011 was $2,045 and $1,525 respectively. Total stock compensation expense recorded in the third quarter of 2012 and 2011 was $807 and $605 respectively. There were no stock options awards during the first nine months of 2012 and 2011. There were 88 shares of restricted stock awarded during the three months ended September 30, 2012 at prices ranging from $19.38 to $19.45 per share. There were 258 shares of restricted stock awarded during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 at prices ranging from $18.82 to $21.59 per share. There were 140 shares of restricted stock awarded during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 at a price of $20.90 per share, all of which were awarded during the three month period ended June 30, 2011.

NOTE I — Comprehensive Loss

The components of accumulated comprehensive loss at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were as follows:


	September 30, 2012			December 31, 2011
Foreign currency translation adjustment	$	5,655		$	4,852
Pension and postretirement benefit adjustments, net of tax		(12,046	)		(13,257	)

	$	(6,391	)	$	(8,405	)

The pension and postretirement benefit liability amounts are net of deferred taxes of $5,571 at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. No income taxes are provided on foreign currency translation adjustments as foreign earnings are considered permanently invested.

NOTE J — Accrued Warranty Costs

The Company estimates the amount of warranty claims on sold products that may be incurred based on current and historical data. The actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance. The following table presents the changes in the Company’s product warranty liability:


	2012			2011
Balance at January 1	$	4,208		$	4,046
Claims paid during the year		(1,453	)		(3,260	)
Additional warranties issued during the first nine months		1,771			3,265
Acquired warranty liabilities		3,317			—

Balance at September 30	$	7,843		$	4,051

NOTE K — Income Taxes

The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective income tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the Company updates the estimated annual effective income tax rate, and if the estimated income tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made.

The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2012 and 2011 was 33.6% and 36.6%, respectfully. The 2012 annual effective income tax rate is estimated to be approximately 33.7% and is lower than the 35.0% United States federal statutory rate primarily due to anticipated income in jurisdictions outside of the United States where the effective income tax rate is lower than in the United States.

NOTE L — Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels of inputs. The three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies, is:

Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

The fair value of the 8.125% senior notes due 2021 is estimated based on a third-party’s bid price, which was determined to be a Level 1 input. The fair value approximated $259,000 at September 30, 2012 and $247,500 at December 31, 2011 compared to a $250,000 carrying value. The fair value of the Company’s term loan and revolving credit portion of the Credit Agreement, as defined in Note M below, approximated its carrying amount as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

NOTE M — Financing Arrangements

The Company is a party to a credit and security agreement, dated November 5, 2003, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”), with a group of banks, under which it may borrow or issue standby letters of credit or commercial letters of credit. On March 23, 2012, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to, among other things, increase the revolving loan commitment from $200,000 to $220,000, and provide a term loan for $25,000 that is secured by certain real estate and machinery and equipment. Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be borrowed at either (i) LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate minus .25% to 1.00%, at the Company’s election. The LIBOR-based interest rate is dependent on the Company’s debt service coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Under the Credit Agreement, a detailed borrowing base formula provides borrowing availability to the Company based on percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 2.0% at September 30, 2012. Interest on the term loan is at either (i) LIBOR plus 2.75% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate plus .25%, at the Company’s election. The term loan is amortized based on a seven-year schedule with the balance due at maturity (April 7, 2016). The interest rate on the term loan was 3.13% at September 30, 2012.

Long-term debt consists of the following:


	September 30, 2012		December 31, 2011
8.125% senior notes due 2021	$	250,000	$	250,000
Revolving credit		106,286		93,000
Term loan		23,214		—
Other		3,480		4,580

		382,980		347,580
Less current maturities		4,230		1,415

Total	$	378,750	$	346,165

NOTE N — Accounts Receivable

During the first nine months of 2012 and 2011, the Company sold approximately $62,393 and $43,087, respectively, of accounts receivable to mitigate accounts receivable concentration risk and to provide additional financing capacity and recorded a loss in the amount of $260 and $190, respectively, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. These losses represented implicit interest on the transactions.

NOTE O — Acquisition

On March 23, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of FRS, a leading manufacturer of automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic hose products and fuel filler and hydraulic fluid assemblies, in an all cash transaction valued at $98,772. FRS products include fuel filler, hydraulic, and thermoplastic assemblies and several forms of manufactured rubber and thermoplastic hose, including bulk and formed fuel, power steering, transmission oil cooling, hydraulic and thermoplastic hose. FRS sells to automotive and industrial customers throughout North America, Europe and Asia. FRS has five production facilities located in Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee and the Czech Republic. FRS is included in the Company’s Assembly Components segment and had revenues of $107,482 and net income of $7,397 for the period from the date acquired through September 30, 2012. The Company funded the acquisition with cash of $40,000, a $25,000 seven-year amortizing term loan provided by the Credit Agreement and secured by certain real estate and machinery and equipment of the Company and $33,772 of borrowings under the revolving credit facility provided by the Credit Agreement. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price is allocated to FRS’ net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of March 23, 2012, the effective date of the acquisition. Based on management’s valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are based on estimates and assumptions, the preliminary purchase price is allocated as follows:


Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,202
Accounts receivable		30,920
Inventories		12,355
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		3,998
Property, plant and equipment		30,258
Customer relationships		29,400
Trademarks and trade name		11,500
Other assets		212
Accounts payable		(17,207	)
Accrued expenses		(15,599	)
Deferred tax liability		(26,952	)
Other long-term liabilities		(776	)
Goodwill		38,461

Total purchase price	$	98,772

There were $1,139 of direct transaction costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses during the first nine months of 2012.

During the third quarter of 2012, the Company made adjustments to its preliminary purchase price allocation for FRS resulting in a net decrease to goodwill of $9. The adjustments made primarily relate to the working capital adjustment and valuation of property, plant and equipment and the associated impact of deferred taxes.

The following unaudited pro forma information is provided to present a summary of the combined results of the Company’s operations with FRS as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2011. The unaudited pro forma financial information is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the results would have been had the acquisition been completed at the date indicated above.

NOTE P — Commitments, Contingencies and Litigation Settlement

The Company is subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company cannot precisely predict the amount of any liability that may ultimately arise with respect to any of these matters, the Company records provisions when it considers the liability probable and reasonably estimable. Our provisions are based on historical experience and legal advice, reviewed quarterly and adjusted according to developments. Estimating probable losses requires the analysis of multiple forecasted factors that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties, such as regulators, courts, and state and federal legislatures. Changes in the amounts of our loss provisions, which can be material, affect our financial condition. Due to the inherent uncertainties in the process undertaken to estimate potential losses, we are unable to estimate an additional range of loss in excess of our accruals. While it is reasonably possible that such excess liabilities, if they were to occur, could be material to operating results in any given quarter or year of their recognition, we do not believe that it is reasonably possible that such excess liabilities would have a material adverse effect on our long-term results of operations, liquidity or consolidated financial position.

Our subsidiaries are involved in a number of contractual and warranty related disputes. At this time, we cannot reasonably determine the timing and amount of any such loss. We believe that appropriate liabilities for these contingencies have been recorded; however, actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

One of our subsidiaries, Ajax Tocco Magnethermic (“ATM”), which is included in the Engineered Products segment, was a party to a binding arbitration proceeding pending in South Africa with its customer Evraz Highveld Steel and Vanadium (“Evraz”). The arbitration involved a dispute over the design and installation of a melting furnace. Evraz sought binding arbitration in September 2011 for breach of contract and sought compensatory damages in the amount of $37,000, as well as fees and expenses related to the arbitration. ATM counterclaimed in the arbitration, alleging breach of contract for non-payment of $2,700 as well as fees and expenses related to the arbitration. The arbitration was scheduled to commence in June 2012. Prior to the start of the arbitration, after complete evaluation of Evraz’s evidence, consideration of the jurisdiction of the matter, the uncertainty of a specific outcome and other pertinent facts noted in preparation for the arbitration, we entered into a settlement agreement with Evraz pursuant to which we agreed to settle all claims subject to the arbitration proceeding by paying Evraz $13,000 in cash, which payment was made in June 2012. The $2,700 amount receivable from Evraz had been previously reserved and was written off in conjunction with the settlement.

NOTE Q — Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The change in goodwill and other intangible assets reflected on the balance sheet from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 was the result of an increase of $38,429 related to the acquisition of FRS and foreign currency translation. Information regarding other intangible assets as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 follows:


	September 30, 2012						December 31, 2011
	Acquisition Costs		Accumulated Amortization		Net		Acquisition Costs		Accumulated Amortization		Net

Sales, segment operating income and other relevant financial data for these three segments are provided in Note C to the condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere herein.

On March 23, 2012, we completed the acquisition of Fluid Routing Solutions Holding Corp. (“FRS”), a leading manufacturer of automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic hose products and fuel filler and hydraulic fluid assemblies, in an all cash transaction valued at $98.8 million. FRS products include fuel filler, hydraulic, and thermoplastic assemblies and several forms of manufactured hose, including bulk and formed fuel, power steering, transmission oil cooling, hydraulic and thermoplastic hose. FRS sells to automotive and industrial customers throughout North America, Europe and Asia. FRS has five production facilities located in Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee and the Czech Republic. FRS is included in the our Assembly Components segment.

In connection with the acquisition of FRS, we amended and restated our existing credit and security agreement, dated November 5, 2003, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”), to, among other things, increase the revolving loan commitment from $200 million to $220 million and provide a seven-year amortizing term loan for $25 million that is secured by certain real estate and machinery and equipment. We funded the acquisition with cash of $40 million, the $25 million term loan provided by the Credit Agreement and $33.8 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility provided by the Credit Agreement.

During the second quarter of 2012, we agreed to settle the Evraz Highveld Steel and Vanadium (“Evraz”) arbitration proceeding for the sum of $13.0 million in cash, which payment was made in June 2012.

Cost of products sold increased $30.8 million to $232.5 million in the third quarter of 2012, compared to $201.7 million in the same period in 2011, while gross margin increased to 18.8% in the third quarter of 2012 compared to 17.2% in the same period in 2011. The increase in cost of products sold was due primarily to the inclusion of FRS results in 2012. Gross margin increased primarily due to product mix and improved operating efficiencies.

Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) Expenses:


	Three Months Ended September 30,								Percent Change
	2012			2011			Change		Percent Change
	(Dollars in millions)
Consolidated SG&A expenses	$	31.2		$	26.2		$	5.0		19	%
SG&A as a percentage of net sales		10.9	%		10.8	%

Consolidated SG&A expenses increased 19% in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, representing a 10 basis point increase in SG&A expenses as a percent of sales. SG&A expenses increased in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to the acquisition of FRS and to increases in payroll and payroll related items and lower pension income.

Interest Expense:


	Three Months Ended September 30,									Percent Change

Interest expense increased $.3 million in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period of 2011. Average borrowings in the third quarter of 2012 were higher when compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to additional borrowings to fund the acquisition of FRS. The lower average borrowing rate in the third quarter of 2012 was due primarily to the interest rate mix of our revolving credit facility and the 8.125% senior notes due 2021 (“Senior Notes”) when compared to the interest rate mix in the same period in 2011.

Income Tax:

The provision for income taxes was $5.4 million in the third quarter of 2012, a 33.7% effective income tax rate, compared to income taxes of $1.2 million provided in the corresponding period of 2011, a 29.1% effective income tax rate. Included in the income tax provision for 2011 was $2.1 million associated with the retirement of 8.375% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (“Senior Subordinated Notes”) that were held by a foreign affiliate.

Net Income:

Net income increased $7.8 million to $10.7 million in the third quarter of 2012, compared to $2.9 million in the same period of 2011 which included a restructuring and asset impairment charge of $5.4 million.

Net sales increased $126.3 million to $858.3 million in the first nine months of 2012, compared to $732.0 million in the same period in 2011, as we experienced volume increases in each of our segments. Supply Technologies sales increased 4% primarily due to volume increases in the heavy-duty truck, power sports, computer office equipment and lawn and garden industries offset primarily by declines in the consumer electronics, semi-conductor, appliance, HVAC and instruments industries. Assembly Components sales increased 75% primarily from sales of $107.5 million resulting from the acquisition of FRS partially offset by lower sales in the aluminum business unit. Engineered Products sales increased 8% primarily due to increased volume in the capital equipment and forged and machine business units.

Cost of Products Sold & Gross Profit:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,								Percent Change
	2012			2011			Change		Percent Change
	(Dollars in millions)
Consolidated cost of products sold	$	699.6		$	603.0		$	96.6		16	%

Cost of products sold increased $96.6 million to $699.6 million in the first nine months of 2012, compared to $603.0 million in the same period in 2011, while gross margin increased to 18.5% in the first nine months of 2012 compared to 17.6% in the same period in 2011. The increase in cost of products sold was due primarily to the inclusion of FRS results in 2012. Gross margin increased in each segment resulting primarily from favorable product mix and improved operating efficiencies.

SG&A Expenses:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,								Percent Change
	2012			2011			Change		Percent Change
	(Dollars in millions)
Consolidated SG&A expenses	$	89.6		$	80.7		$	8.9		11	%
SG&A as a percentage of net sales		10.4	%		11.0	%

Consolidated SG&A expenses increased 11% in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. However, we generated a 60 basis point decrease in SG&A expenses as a percent of sales. SG&A expenses increased in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to $5.2 million of incremental expense associated with FRS, increases in payroll and payroll related expenses, a reduction in pension income of $1.5 million, FRS acquisition expenses of $1.1 million and $1.0 million of legal expenses associated with the litigation settlement.

Interest Expense:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,									Percent Change
	2012			2011			Change			Percent Change
	(Dollars in millions)
Interest expense	$	19.8		$	26.3		$	(6.5	)		(25	)%
Debt extinguishment costs included in interest expense	$	.3		$	7.3			(7.0	)		(96	)%
Average outstanding borrowings	$	378.2		$	332.6		$	45.6			14	%
Average borrowing rate		6.98	%		6.90	%		8			basis points

Interest expense decreased $6.5 million in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same period of 2011, primarily due to higher debt extinguishment costs in 2011 as a result of the refinancing of our Senior Subordinated Notes and amendment of the Credit Agreement. Average borrowings in the first nine months of 2012 were higher when compared to the same period in 2011 due to our sale of $250 million in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes, offset by the purchase of all of our outstanding Senior Subordinated Notes, additional borrowings to fund the acquisition of FRS and the litigation settlement. The higher average borrowing rate in the first nine months of 2012 was due primarily to the interest rate mix of our revolving credit facility and the Senior Notes when compared to the interest rate mix in the same period in 2011.

Income Tax:

The provision for income taxes was $12.2 million in the first nine months of 2012, a 33.6% effective income tax rate, compared to income taxes of $6.1 million provided in the corresponding period of 2011, a 36.6% effective income tax rate. We estimate that the effective tax rate for full-year 2012 will be approximately 33.7%.

Net Income:

Net income increased $13.6 million to $24.1 million for the first nine months of 2012, compared to $10.5 million for the first nine months of 2011. The first nine months of 2012 includes the impact of a $13.0 million pre-tax litigation settlement charge. The first nine months of 2011 included debt extinguishment costs of $7.3 million resulting from the refinancing of our Senior Subordinated Notes and the amendment of the Credit Agreement and income taxes of $2.1 million resulting from the retirement of $26.2 million of our Senior Subordinated Notes that were held by a foreign affiliate. Also, during the third quarter of 2011, we recorded a restructuring and asset impairment charge of $5.4 million.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

As of September 30, 2012, we had $106.3 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility, approximately $80.9 million of unused borrowing availability and cash and cash equivalents of $41.3 million.

Our liquidity needs are primarily for working capital and capital expenditures. Our primary sources of liquidity have been funds provided by operations and funds available from existing bank credit arrangements and the sale of our debt securities. On April 7, 2011, we completed the sale of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes. The Senior Notes bear an interest rate of 8.125% per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year beginning on April 1, 2011. The Senior Notes mature on April 1, 2021.

We are a party to the Credit Agreement with a group of banks, under which we may borrow or issue standby letters of credit or commercial letters of credit. On March 23, 2012, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to, among other things, increase the revolving loan commitment from $200 million to $220 million, and provide a term loan for $25 million that is secured by certain real estate and machinery and equipment. Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be borrowed at either (i) LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate minus .25% to 1.00%, at our election. The LIBOR-based interest rate is dependent on our debt service coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Under the Credit Agreement, a detailed borrowing base formula provides borrowing availability to us based on percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Interest on the term loan is at either (i) LIBOR plus 2.75% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate plus .25%, at our election. The term loan is amortized based on a seven-year schedule with the balance due at maturity (April 7, 2016).

Current financial resources (working capital and available bank borrowing arrangements) and anticipated funds from operations are expected to be adequate to meet current cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. The future availability of bank borrowings under the revolving credit facility provided by the Credit Agreement is based on our ability to meet a debt service ratio covenant, which could be materially impacted by negative economic trends. Failure to meet the debt service ratio could materially impact the availability and interest rate of future borrowings.

We had cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries of $31.0 million at September 30, 2012 and $61.2 million at December 31, 2011. For each of our foreign subsidiaries, we make a determination regarding the amount of earnings intended for permanent reinvestment, with the balance, if any, available to be repatriated to the United States. The cash held by foreign subsidiaries for permanent reinvestment is generally used to finance the foreign subsidiaries’ operational activities and/or future foreign investments. At September 30, 2012, management believed that sufficient liquidity was available in the United States, and it is our current intention to permanently reinvest undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries outside of the United States. Although we have no intention to repatriate the approximately $90.8 million of undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries, as of September 30, 2012, if we were to repatriate these earnings, there would potentially be an adverse tax impact.

At September 30, 2012, our debt service coverage ratio was 2.1, and, therefore, we were in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio covenant contained in the revolving credit facility. We were also in compliance with the other covenants contained in the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2012. The debt service coverage ratio is calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter and is based on the most recently ended four fiscal quarters of consolidated EBITDA minus cash taxes paid, minus unfunded capital expenditures, plus cash tax refunds to consolidated debt charges that are consolidated cash interest expense plus scheduled principal payments on indebtedness plus scheduled reductions in our term debt as defined in the Credit Agreement. The debt service coverage ratio must be greater than 1.0 and not less than 1.1 for any two consecutive fiscal quarters. While we expect to remain in compliance throughout 2012, declines in sales volumes in 2012 could adversely impact our ability to remain in compliance with certain of these financial covenants. Additionally, to the extent our customers are adversely affected by declines in the economy in general, they may not be able to pay their accounts payable to us on a timely basis or at all, which would make the accounts receivable ineligible for purposes of the revolving credit facility and could reduce our borrowing base and our ability to borrow under such facility.

The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.21 at September 30, 2012, versus 2.65 at December 31, 2011. Working capital decreased by $23.3 million to $268.2 million at September 30, 2012, from $291.5 million at December 31,

2011. Accounts receivable increased $33.1 million to $173.0 million at September 30, 2012, from $139.9 million at December 31, 2011, primarily resulting from the acquisition of FRS and its $24.1 million of accounts receivable and sales volume increases. Inventory increased by $21.9 million at September 30, 2012, to $223.9 million from $202.0 million at December 31, 2011, primarily resulting from planned increases due to sales volume increases and $10.4 million of increases associated with the acquisition of FRS. Accrued expenses increased by $21.4 million to $95.1 million at September 30, 2012, from $73.7 million at December 31, 2011, primarily resulting from the terms of the payments of interest due on the Notes and accrued liabilities of FRS of $11.7 million. Accounts payable increased $20.8 million to $120.4 million at September 30, 2012, from $99.6 million at December 31, 2011, primarily as a result of acquiring the accounts payable of FRS of $16.1 million and the timing of payments at September 30, 2012.

During the first nine months of 2012, we provided $43.1 million of cash from operating activities compared to $26.1 million in the same period of 2011. The increase in the operating cash flows of $17.0 million in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the first nine months of 2011 was primarily the result of an increase in net income and an increase in cash flows from operating assets and liabilities compared to the prior year. In the first nine months of 2012, we used cash of $19.1 million for capital expenditures and $96.6 million for the acquisition of FRS. These activities and an increase in borrowings of $35.4 million and purchase of treasury stock of $1.2 million offset by funds received upon the exercise of stock options of $1.1 million and the income tax effect of share-based compensation exercises and vesting of $1.0 million, resulted in a decrease in cash of $36.7 million in the first nine months of 2012.

We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financing or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons. There are occasions whereupon we enter into forward contracts on foreign currencies, purely for the purpose of hedging exposure to changes in the value of accounts receivable in those currencies against the U.S. dollar. At September 30, 2012, none were outstanding. We currently have no other derivative instruments.

Seasonality; Variability of Operating Results

The timing of orders placed by our customers has varied with, among other factors, orders for customers’ finished goods, customer production schedules, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. The variability of the level and timing of orders has, from time to time, resulted in significant periodic and quarterly fluctuations in the operations of our business units. Such variability is particularly evident at the capital equipment business unit, included in the Engineered Products segment, which typically ships a few large systems per year.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are described in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 contained in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There were no new accounting policies or updates to existing accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements discussed in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The application of our critical accounting policies may require management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The words “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “intends”, “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance and achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: our substantial indebtedness; continuation of the current negative global economic environment; general business conditions and competitive factors, including pricing pressures and product innovation; demand for our products and services; raw material availability and pricing; component part availability and pricing; changes in our relationships with customers and suppliers; the financial condition of our customers, including the impact of any bankruptcies; our ability to successfully integrate FRS and achieve the expected results of the acquisition; our ability to retain FRS’s relationship with customers and suppliers; our ability to successfully integrate recent and future acquisitions into existing operations; changes in general domestic economic conditions such as inflation rates, interest rates, tax rates, unemployment rates, higher labor and healthcare costs, recessions and changing government policies, laws and regulations, including the uncertainties related to the current global financial crisis; adverse impacts to us, our suppliers and customers from acts of terrorism or hostilities;

our ability to meet various covenants, including financial covenants, contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness; disruptions, uncertainties or volatility in the credit markets that may limit our access to capital; increasingly stringent domestic and foreign governmental regulations, including those affecting the environment; inherent uncertainties involved in assessing our potential liability for environmental remediation-related activities; the outcome of pending and future litigation and other claims and disputes with customers; our dependence on the automotive and heavy-duty truck industries, which are highly cyclical; the dependence of the automotive industry on consumer spending, which could be lower due to the effects of the current financial crisis; our ability to negotiate contracts with labor unions; our dependence on key management; our dependence on information systems; and the other factors we describe under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a forward-looking statement herein should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk, including changes in interest rates. We are subject to interest rate risk on borrowings under the floating rate revolving credit facility and term loan provided by our Credit Agreement, which consisted of borrowings of $129.5 million at September 30, 2012. A 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would have resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.0 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012.

Our foreign subsidiaries generally conduct business in local currencies. During the third quarter of 2012, we recorded a favorable foreign currency translation adjustment of $2.5 million related to net assets located outside the United States. This foreign currency translation adjustment resulted primarily from strengthening of the U.S. dollar. Our foreign operations are also subject to other customary risks of operating in a global environment, such as unstable political situations, the effect of local laws and taxes, tariff increases and regulations and requirements for export licenses, the potential imposition of trade or foreign exchange restrictions and transportation delays.

We periodically enter into forward contracts on foreign currencies, primarily the euro and the British pound sterling, purely for the purpose of hedging exposure to changes in the value of accounts receivable in those currencies against the U.S. dollar. We currently use no other derivative instruments. At September 30, 2012, there were no such currency hedge contracts outstanding.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter of 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various pending and threatened lawsuits in which claims for monetary damages are asserted in the ordinary course of business. While any litigation involves an element of uncertainty, in the opinion of management, liabilities, if any, arising from currently pending or threatened litigation are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

In addition to the routine lawsuits and asserted claims noted above, we were a party to the lawsuits and legal proceedings described below at September 30, 2012.

We were a co-defendant in approximately 280 cases asserting claims on behalf of approximately 700 plaintiffs alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. These asbestos cases generally relate to production and sale of asbestos-containing products and allege various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability, and seek compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages.

In every asbestos case in which we are named as a party, the complaints are filed against multiple named defendants. In substantially all of the asbestos cases, the plaintiffs either claim damages in excess of a specified amount, typically a minimum amount sufficient to establish jurisdiction of the court in which the case was filed (jurisdictional minimums generally range from $25,000 to $75,000), or do not specify the monetary damages sought. To the extent that any specific amount of damages is sought, the amount applies to claims against all named defendants.

There are only seven asbestos cases, involving 25 plaintiffs, that plead specified damages. In each of the seven cases, the plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages based on a variety of potentially alternative causes of action. In three cases, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory damages in the amount of $3.0 million for four separate causes of action and $1.0 million for another cause of action and punitive damages in the amount of $10.0 million. In the fourth case, the plaintiff has alleged against each named defendant, compensatory and punitive damages, each in the amount of $10.0 million, for seven separate causes of action. In the fifth case, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory damages in the amount of $20.0 million for three separate causes of action and $5.0 million for another cause of action and punitive damages in the amount of $20.0 million. In the remaining two cases, the plaintiffs have each alleged against each named defendant compensatory and punitive damages, each in the amount of $50.0 million, for four separate causes of action.

Historically, we have been dismissed from asbestos cases on the basis that the plaintiff incorrectly sued one of our subsidiaries or because the plaintiff failed to identify any asbestos-containing product manufactured or sold by us or our subsidiaries. We intend to vigorously defend these asbestos cases, and believe we will continue to be successful in being dismissed from such cases. However, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of personal injury litigation. Despite this uncertainty, and although our results of operations and cash flows for a particular period could be adversely affected by asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Among the factors management considered in reaching this conclusion were: (a) our historical success in being dismissed from these types of lawsuits on the bases mentioned above; (b) many cases have been improperly filed against one of our subsidiaries; (c) in many cases the plaintiffs have been unable to establish any causal relationship to us or our products or premises; (d) in many cases, the plaintiffs have been unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any identifiable injury or compensable loss at all or that any injuries that they have incurred did in fact result from alleged exposure to asbestos; and (e) the complaints assert claims against multiple defendants and, in most cases, the damages alleged are not attributed to individual defendants. Additionally, we do not believe that the amounts claimed in any of the asbestos cases are meaningful indicators of our potential exposure because the amounts claimed typically bear no relation to the extent of the plaintiff’s injury, if any.

Our cost of defending these lawsuits has not been material to date and, based upon available information, our management does not expect its future costs for asbestos-related lawsuits to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial position.
