Consolidated Financial Statements

Independent Auditors’ Report
The Board of Directors
Premier Pneumatics, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Premier Pneumatics, Inc. and subsidiary (the Company) as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Premier Pneumatics, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

PREMIER PNEUMATICS, INC.  AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2005 and 2004
(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
  (a)   Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
 
      Premier Pneumatics, Inc. and subsidiary (the Company) manufacture pneumatic conveying components and design complete materials handling systems. The Company’s customers range in size from individually owned firms to many Fortune 500 companies. These companies are involved in industries such as plastics, food, chemicals, and mineral processing. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, sales to companies in the plastics industry have represented over 50% of total sales. Sales are generally concentrated in the United States of America, although the Company does have export sales throughout the world.
 
      The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Premier Pneumatics, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Mariposa Group, LLC. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
 
  (b)   Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
      The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience and specific identification. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
 
  (c)   Inventories
 
      Inventories are valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Had the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method been used, net earnings would have been $20,000 higher and $312,000 lower than reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
 
      The components of inventories at December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:
                 
    2005     2004  
Raw materials
  $ 1,139,418       1,003,164  
Work-in-process
    750,381       155,831  
Finished goods
    337,335       662,625  
 
           
 
               
Inventories at FIFO
    2,227,134       1,821,620  
 
               
Less LIFO reserve
    1,215,000       1,195,000  
 
           
 
               
Inventories at FIFO
  $ 1,012,134       626,620  
 
           
      During 2004, inventory quantities were reduced. This reduction resulted in the liquidation of LIFO inventory layers carried at lower costs than prevailed in prior years. This reduction resulted in decreasing the charge to cost of goods sold in 2004, and thus reducing cost of goods sold by

PREMIER PNEUMATICS, INC.  AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2005 and 2004
      approximately $447,000 below the amount that would have resulted from liquidating inventory recorded at December 31, 2004 prices.
 
  (d)   Property, Plant, and Equipment
 
      Depreciation of plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 5 to 25 years on buildings and improvements, range from 3 to 15 years on machinery, tools, and equipment, and is 15 years on the airplane. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
 
      Upon sale or retirement of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts. Gains and losses on dispositions are reflected in current operations, except that no gain or loss on disposition is recognized with respect to assets exchanged for similar assets.
 
  (e)   Research and Development Costs
 
      Costs incurred in the creation and start-up of new products or changes of existing products are charged to expense as incurred. The Company charged approximately $45,000 and $121,000 of research and development costs to operations during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
 
  (f)   Income Taxes
 
      The Company has adopted Subchapter S corporate status. Therefore, the Company has no income tax liability, as the taxable income of the Company is included in the taxable income of its stockholder.
 
  (g)   Revenue Recognition
 
      Revenue is recognized at the time the product is shipped. Advance billings and customer deposits represent amounts paid to the Company from customers in advance of the shipment of the product.
 
  (h)   Product Warranty
 
      The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time of sale based upon historical experience, or, in some cases, when specific warranty problems are encountered. Should actual product failure rates or repair costs differ from the Company’s current estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required. The Company’s warranty accrual at December 31, 2005 and 2004 totaled $154,500 and $103,500, respectively.
 
  (i)   Statements of Cash Flows
 
      For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers interest-bearing deposits with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
  (j)   Use of Estimates

      of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
  (2)   Notes Payable to Bank
 
      The Company has a short-term unsecured revolving credit arrangement that renews annually with a commercial bank allowing borrowings of up to $1,000,000 at the prime rate. There were no borrowings outstanding under the agreement during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.
 
      In 2004, the Company created a wholly owned subsidiary, which entered into a five-year loan agreement on May 4, 2004 with a financial institution in the amount of $2,208,750, with interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% (6.01% at December 31, 2005). The loan is due in monthly installments of $12,271 through maturity in May 2009, upon which the remaining outstanding principal is due. The proceeds of the loan were used for the purchase of an aircraft for use in the Company’s selling efforts. The loan is secured with the aircraft.
 
      The aggregate maturities of the note payable subsequent to December 31, 2005 are as follows:

      The agreement provides that the Company must meet certain covenants with respect to tangible net worth and debt. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with these covenant requirements.
 
  (3)   Profit Sharing Plan
 
      The Company has a noncontributory employee profit sharing plan covering all employees. The annual contribution is determined at the discretion of the board of directors. Plan proceeds are distributed to participants upon death, retirement, or termination of employment under available plan options. Contributions by the Company were $310,000 and $156,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

PREMIER PNEUMATICS, INC.  AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2005 and 2004
    Effective January 1, 2005, the Company adopted a phantom stock plan (the Plan) whereby the Company will grant members of senior management (the participants) units in the Plan. In addition, the Plan allows for the participants to contribute a portion of the participants’ annual incentive bonus to the Plan in exchange for additional units. Units granted under the Plan will vest immediately with an exercise price equal to the book value of the Company as of the previous fiscal year-end. Units issued under the Plan will be settled in cash at net book value upon termination of the participants caused by death, retirement, or other unforeseeable events and at fair value upon a change of control. The maximum number of units authorized to be issued is 33,000 units. To date, the Company has granted 29,815 units issued and outstanding to the participants under the provisions of the Plan. At December 31, 2005, the liability related to the Company’s obligation for the Plan totaled approximately $458,000 and is included in accrued payroll, taxes, and other expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
 
    In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This Statement is a revision to Statement No. 123 and supersedes Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. This Statement will require measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock options. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized. The adoption of this statement will not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
(4)   Related Party Transaction
 
    During 2003, the Company loaned $1,376,834 to a stockholder of the Company. During 2005 and 2004, $249,983 and $335,355 was repaid to the Company, respectively. As of December 31, 2005, $791,496 was outstanding on the note. All outstanding principal and interest is due on November 30, 2006. The note bears interest at an annual rate of 1.50%.

(Unaudited)
1.   To record, prior to the October 5, 2006 acquisition, the transfer of Premier’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Mariposa, to the Shareholder and to eliminate Mariposa’s operating results.
 
2.   To record distributions made to the Shareholder subsequent to September 30, 2006 and prior to the October 5, 2006 acquisition.
 
3.   To recognize the financing associated with the acquisition of the Premier Stock by K-Tron.
 
    The purchase price paid on October 5, 2006 for the acquisition of the Premier Stock was $27.565 million. K-Tron expects to receive from the Shareholder an estimated post-closing adjustment of $111 thousand based on Premier’s net working capital on the closing date. K-Tron incurred approximately $600 thousand in acquisition costs. K-Tron will reimburse the Shareholder for income taxes related to making an Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) section 338(h)(10) election. The amount of the income tax reimbursement has not yet been calculated.
 
    The $27.565 million paid at closing was borrowed under a new $50 million unsecured revolving credit facility that K-Tron entered into on September 29, 2006. The entire purchase price of $27.565 million was paid in cash, including a $2.0 million escrow. K-Tron borrowed the funds using LIBOR rate loans that bear interest at LIBOR for the relevant period plus a percentage ranging from 0.875% to 1.625%, depending on K-Tron’s consolidated debt-to-EBITDA ratio. K-Tron entered into two $5 million interest rate swaps with durations of three and four years. The balance of the loan, $17.565 million, was borrowed at one to six month LIBOR rates with the average effective interest rate on the $27.565 million borrowing equal to approximately 6.4% per annum as of the end of October 2006.
 
4.   The excess ($26.872 million) of the purchase price over the carrying value of the net identifiable assets acquired ($1.182 million) has been allocated as follows:
         
    (In Thousands)

5.   To record depreciation and amortization on the fair value adjustments.
     
Property Plant and Equipment   3 to 17 years
Trade Names   Indefinite life
Customer Relationships   10 years
6.   To record the interest expense on the funds borrowed based upon the interest rates disclosed in Note 3 above.
 
7.   To record income taxes for 2006 and 2005 since Premier elected S Corporation status for Federal and State purposes and, as such, did not incur any tax liability.
 
8.   To adjust for the pro forma adjustments to the extent the adjustments would create allowable deductions, at the appropriate U.S. Federal and State statutory rates.
 
9.   To reclassify commissions, profit sharing and other income to conform to the classification used by K-Tron.
 
10.   To eliminate nonrecurring Shareholder expenses primarily related to compensation and aircraft expenses.
 
11.   Deferred taxes related to the fair value adjustments have not been provided for in the Condensed Consolidated Pro Forma Balance Sheet since an IRC section 338(h)(10) election is expected to be made.
