NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2013 (unaudited) and December 31, 2012 (audited) and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the indicated periods. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted from these unaudited financial statements in accordance with applicable rules. Please refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and nine-month period ending September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

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

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

4. The Company’s effective tax rates were 33.0% and 31.2% for the third quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and 32.5% and 32.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Rates were lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the Domestic Production Activities Deduction allowed under Internal Revenue Code Section 199.

The Company’s federal income tax returns for the 2010, 2011 and 2012 tax years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). While it may be possible that a reduction could occur with respect to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits as an outcome of an IRS examination, management does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to the results of operations or financial condition of the Company. No statutes have been extended on any of the Company’s federal income tax filings. The statute of limitations on the Company’s 2010, 2011 and 2012 federal income tax returns will expire on September 15, 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively.

The Company’s state income tax returns for the 2010 through 2012 tax years remain subject to examination by various state authorities with the latest closing period on October 31, 2016. The Company is currently not under examination by any state authority for income tax purposes and no statutes for state income tax filings have been extended.

5. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined by the first-in, first-out method. A summary of inventories is as follows:

	September 30, 2013		December 31, 2012

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

Results for the third quarter of 2013, as well as those of the current year to date, reflect strong growth in sales and net income compared to year earlier periods. Net sales in the third quarter were $9,461,778 this year, an increase of $924,139, or 10.8%, compared with the third quarter of 2012. As of September 30, 2013, year to date sales totaled $27,915,157, an improvement of $1,747,999, or 6.7%, compared with the first three quarters of 2012. The increase in revenue helped to improve net income for the third quarter to $820,205, or $0.85 per share, compared with $463,342, or $0.48 per share, in the third quarter of 2012. Net income for the current year to date, which has benefited from the revenue growth achieved during the first three quarters as well as ongoing efficiency initiatives, was $1,911,950, or $1.98 per share, compared with $1,397,508, or $1.45 per share, reported in 2012.

During the third quarter, fastener segment revenues improved to $8,631,105 from $7,841,672 in the year earlier quarter, an increase of $789,433, or 10.1%. For the first three quarters of the year, fastener segment revenues have increased $1,615,764, or 6.8%, to $25,397,537 from $23,781,773 in 2012. With the majority of such revenues derived from the automotive industry, the segment has benefited from increased North American production and sales of autos and trucks during the current year. Production costs were positively impacted by favorable raw material prices in the third quarter this year compared to a year earlier. Additionally, we achieved savings of approximately $47,000 related to production tooling, after incurring higher expenses for the first two quarters this year compared to their year earlier periods. These savings, combined with higher sales, resulted in fastener segment gross margin of $2,228,251 for the third quarter of 2013 compared to $1,708,174 for the third quarter of 2012. The fastener segment gross margin for the first three quarters of 2013 improved to $5,835,469 from $5,077,261 in 2012, primarily due to higher sales in the current year, as well as favorable raw material prices in the current year.

Revenues within the assembly equipment segment were $830,673 in the third quarter of 2013, an increase of $134,706, or 19.4%, compared to the third quarter of 2012, when revenues were $695,967. Current year to date revenues of $2,517,620 represents an increase of $132,235, or 5.5%, compared to the $2,385,385 reported for the first three quarters of 2012. The increase in assembly equipment sales is primarily related to a greater number of machines being shipped during the third quarter and year to date. The increase in third quarter and year to date sales has resulted in improvement in segment margins of approximately $86,000 for the quarter, and $96,000 year to date, compared to last year.

Selling and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2013 were $1,391,902, an increase of $128,666, or 10.2%, compared to the year earlier quarter total of $1,263,236. The increase is primarily due a $71,000 increase in profit sharing expense related to greater profitability, and a $29,000 increase in commissions, due to higher sales in the current year. For the first three quarters of the year, selling and administrative expenses have increased $137,771, or 3.5%, from $3,934,872 in 2012 to $4,072,643 in 2013. Profit sharing expense has increased by $89,000 for the year due to improved profitability and commissions have increased approximately $66,000 due to the higher sales. Payroll related expenses have declined approximately $46,000 due to headcount reductions since last year, while the remaining net increase includes various smaller items. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales for the first three quarters of 2013 declined to 14.6% from 15% in 2012.

Other income in the third quarter was approximately $74,000 higher than the third quarter of 2012 and has increased approximately $57,000 on a year to date basis, due to gains on the sale of certain equipment formerly used in the fastener segment, brought on by the investment in new equipment.

Working capital as of September 30, 2013 amounted to $15.5 million, a decline of approximately $.4 million from the beginning of the year. The decline is primarily due to the $2.2 million increase in capital expenditures in the first three quarters of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012. Total capital expenditures for the current year are approximately $2.8 million, with $2.4 million related to investments in cold heading equipment, concentrated in equipment that will increase our capabilities as well as capacity. Another factor impacting the change in working capital is the increase of $1.7 million in accounts receivable, related to the higher sales during the quarter, compared to the seasonally lower sales late in the fourth quarter of 2012. This increase is partially offset by an increase of approximately $.4 million in accounts payable and $.8 million in accrued expenses, which reflect the greater level of activity that is typical for this time of year compared to the end of the prior year. The net result of these changes and other cash flow items on cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit was a $.6 million reduction in such total balances from the beginning of the year, to $6.9 million. Management believes that current cash, cash equivalents and operating cash flow will provide adequate working capital for the foreseeable future.

10

We are pleased to report improved operating results for both the third quarter and current year to date compared to the year earlier periods. Higher sales and operating margins, have resulted in a 36.8% increase in net income for the first nine months of this year compared to the same period of 2012. While the growth in the overall U.S. economy has been modest in recent years, the strength of the domestic automotive market has provided opportunities for growth that we have successfully pursued. Additionally, our positive results in recent years and strong balance sheet have allowed us to make significant investments in our operations this year which we expect to contribute positively to operating results in the future. We will continue to pursue opportunities to profitably grow our revenues and improve our operating results, while maintaining the high level of product quality and reliability of service our customers demand.

This discussion contains certain “forward-looking statements” which are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events to differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors which may cause such differences in events include, those disclosed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the other filings we make with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. These factors, include among other things: conditions in the domestic automotive industry, upon which we rely for sales revenue, the intense competition in our markets, the concentration of our sales to two major customers, the price and availability of raw materials, labor relations issues, losses related to product liability, warranty and recall claims, costs relating to environmental laws and regulations, the loss of the services of our key employees and difficulties in achieving expected cost savings. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Accounting Policies

1.  In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2013 (unaudited) and December 31, 2012 (audited) and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the indicated periods.  Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted from these unaudited financial statements in accordance with applicable rules.  Please refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The results of operations for the three and nine-month period ending September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

Commitments and Contingencies

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

Income Taxes

Notes

Income Taxes

4.  The Company’s effective tax rates were 33.0% and 31.2% for the third quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and 32.5% and 32.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Rates were lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the Domestic Production Activities Deduction allowed under Internal Revenue Code Section 199.

The Company’s federal income tax returns for the 2010, 2011 and 2012 tax years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”).   While it may be possible that a reduction could occur with respect to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits as an outcome of an IRS examination, management does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to the results of operations or financial condition of the Company.  No statutes have been extended on any of the Company’s federal income tax filings.  The statute of limitations on the Company’s 2010, 2011 and 2012 federal income tax returns will expire on September 15, 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively.

The Company’s state income tax returns for the 2010 through 2012 tax years remain subject to examination by various state authorities with the latest closing period on October 31, 2016.  The Company is currently not under examination by any state authority for income tax purposes and no statutes for state income tax filings have been extended.
