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 June 30, 2014 (unaudited) and December 31, 2013 (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, 2013.

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 six-month period ending June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

New Accounting Pronouncements-In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and is to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on the consolidated results of operation, financial position and related disclosures.

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 approximately 34.7% and 31.9% for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively, and 34.2% and 32.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Rates were lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate in 2013 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 through 2013 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 through 2013 federal income tax returns will expire on September 15, 2014 through 2017, respectively.

The Company’s state income tax returns for the 2010 through 2013 tax years remain subject to examination by various state authorities with the latest closing period on October 31, 2017. The Company is not currently under examination by any state authority for income tax purposes and no statutes for state income tax filings have been extended.

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

Revenues for the second quarter of 2014, as well as for the current year to date, reflect continued growth compared to the year earlier periods. Net sales for the second quarter of 2014 were $9,500,678, an increase of $173,035, or 1.9%, compared with the year earlier quarter. For the first half of 2014, net sales totaled $19,451,102, an improvement of $997,723, or 5.4%, compared with the first half of 2013. The increase in sales reflects our successful efforts to increase sales to automotive customers, who are currently benefiting from an increase in U.S. automotive production, in an otherwise generally slow growth economy. Net income for the second quarter of 2014 was $569,054, or $0.59 per share, compared with $638,213, or $0.66 per share, in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a $40,786 reduction in gains from the sale of equipment used in operations compared to the prior year and higher income taxes in the current year quarter. Net income for the first half of 2014 was $1,137,427, or $1.18 per share, a 4.2% increase compared to the $1,091,745, or $1.13 per share, reported in the first half of 2013.

Fastener segment revenues for the second quarter of 2014 improved 3.6%, to $8,764,594, from $8,463,688 reported in the second quarter of 2013. For the first six months of the year, fastener segment revenues improved 6.5%, to $17,852,329, from $16,766,432, an increase of $1,085,897, compared to the first half of 2013. With the majority of such revenues derived from the automotive sector, the segment has benefited from increased North American sales of autos and trucks during the current year. Fastener segment gross margins improved $83,949 in the second quarter compared to last year, as higher production expenses pressured margins in the quarter. During the quarter, labor expense increased approximately $68,000 as headcount has risen related to the increase in production activity and employee health insurance costs increased approximately $42,000 related to higher insurance premiums and headcount. Additionally, production related depreciation increased $46,299 in the second quarter, due to recent investments in equipment. For the first half of 2014, depreciation has increased $83,992, labor expense has increased approximately $186,000 and employee health insurance has increased approximately $67,000, partially offsetting the increase in sales and resulting in a net increase in segment gross margin of $325,279.

Assembly equipment segment revenues were $736,084 in the second quarter of 2014, a decline of $127,871, compared to the second quarter of 2013, when revenues were $863,955. The decline in second quarter sales was primarily related to a reduction in machines shipped compared to the second quarter of 2013. This offset the increase in segment sales reported in the first quarter when the number of machines sold was equal to the year earlier period. Year to date assembly equipment sales of $1,598,773 reflect a 5.2% decline compared to $1,686,947 reported for the first half of 2013. The reduction in assembly equipment segment sales in the second quarter resulted in a $78,393 decline in segment gross margin for the quarter and offset the improvement reported in the first quarter this year to leave the year to date margin lower by $63,991.

Selling and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2014 were $1,379,886, an increase of $50,959, or 3.8%, compared with the year earlier quarter total of $1,328,927. The largest component of the change related to an increase in payroll expense of approximately $20,000 during the quarter, related to a realignment of duties in certain positions. Commission expense increased approximately $18,000 compared to the second quarter of 2013 due to higher sales in the current year. The remaining net increase related to higher health insurance and other smaller items. For the first six months of the year, selling and administrative expenses have increased from $2,680,741 in 2013, to $2,793,938 in 2014. Payroll expense accounts for approximately $51,000 of the increase during the first half of 2014. Commissions have increased approximately $40,000 for the first half of the year due to the increase in sales compared to last year. Other smaller net changes during the first six months include a $15,000 profit sharing increase related to improved profitability. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales for the first half of 2014 declined to 14.4%, from 14.5% in 2013.

The Company’s effective tax rates were approximately 34.7% and 31.9% for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively, and 34.2% and 32.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Rates were lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate in 2013 primarily due to the Domestic Production Activities Deduction allowed under Internal Revenue Code Section 199.

Working capital at June 30, 2014 amounted to $15.8 million, an increase of approximately $.2 million from the beginning of the year. Working capital was positively impacted by a $.7 million increase in accounts receivable, due to greater sales activity during the recent quarter, which was only partially offset by a $.5 million increase in accounts payable, which reflects the greater level of activity typical for this time of year compared to the end of the prior year. Capital expenditures for the first half of 2014 were $.8 million, which primarily consisted of equipment used in our fastener

segment. Dividends paid in the first two quarters were $.7 million, including two regular quarterly payments of $.18 per share and an extra dividend of $.40 per share paid in the first quarter. The net result of these changes and other cash flow items on cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit was a $.2 million reduction in such total balances from the beginning of the year, to $6.4 million. Management believes that current cash, cash equivalents and operating cash flow will provide adequate working capital for the foreseeable future.

We are pleased to report higher net sales for the second quarter and year to date compared to the year earlier periods, as well as an increase in net income for the first half of 2014. Demand for fastener segment products remains positive and has been supported by growth in domestic auto production in 2014. Our assembly equipment segment order backlog is lower than a year ago, which is likely to adversely impact results in the near-term. We will continue to make adjustments to our activities which we feel are appropriate based on conditions in our markets, while making investments in our operations that are expected to favorably affect long-term results.

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.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer (the Company’s principal financial officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Income Taxes

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2014

Notes

Income Taxes

4.  The Company’s effective tax rates were approximately 34.7% and 31.9% for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively, and 34.2% and 32.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  Rates were lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate in 2013 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 through 2013 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 through 2013 federal income tax returns will expire on September 15, 2014 through 2017, respectively.

The Company’s state income tax returns for the 2010 through 2013 tax years remain subject to examination by various state authorities with the latest closing period on October 31, 2017.  The Company is not currently under examination by any state authority for income tax purposes and no statutes for state income tax filings have been extended.
