KENNAMETAL INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. ORGANIZATION

Kennametal Inc. was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1943 and maintains its
world headquarters in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. Kennametal Inc. and its
subsidiaries (collectively, "Kennametal" or the "Company") is a leading
global manufacturer, marketer and distributor of a broad range of cutting
tools, tooling systems, supplies and technical services, as well as
wear-resistant parts. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing
excellence and technological expertise and innovation in our principal
products has helped us achieve a leading market presence in our primary
markets. We believe we are the second largest global provider of
metalcutting tools and tooling systems. End users of our products include
metalworking manufacturers and suppliers in the aerospace, automotive,
machine tool and farm machinery industries, as well as manufacturers and
suppliers in the highway construction, coal mining, quarrying and oil and
gas exploration industries. We operate four global business units
consisting of Metalworking Solutions & Services Group (MSSG), Advanced
Materials Solutions Group (AMSG), J&L Industrial Supply (J&L) and Full
Service Supply (FSS), and corporate functional shared services.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include our
accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries, should be read in
conjunction with the 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2003 was derived from the
audited balance sheet included in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
These interim statements are unaudited; however, we believe that all
adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim
periods were made and all adjustments are normal, recurring adjustments.
The results for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal
year. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to a "year" is to a fiscal
year ended June 30. For example, a reference to 2004 is to the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2004. When used in this Form 10-Q, unless the context
requires otherwise, the terms "we," "our" and "us" refer to Kennametal
Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year
presentation.

3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock options generally are granted to eligible employees with a stock
price equal to fair market value at the date of grant. Options are
exercisable under specific conditions for up to 10 years from the date of
grant. As permitted under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123") we
have elected to measure compensation expense related to stock options in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations which uses the
intrinsic value method. In addition to stock option grants, the Amended
and Restated Kennametal Inc. Stock and Incentive Plan of 2002 permits the
award of restricted stock to directors, officers and key employees.
Expense associated with restricted stock grants is amortized over the
vesting period. The expense for these awards is the same under the fair
value method or intrinsic value method, and therefore is not included in
the table below. If compensation expense was determined based on the
estimated fair value of options granted in 2003 and 2002, consistent with
the methodology in SFAS No. 123 and Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and
Disclosure ("SFAS No. 148") , our 2003 and 2002 net income and earnings
per share for the quarter would be reduced to the pro forma amounts
indicated below:

4. ACQUISITIONS

On August 30, 2002, we purchased the Widia Group (Widia) in Europe and
India from Milacron Inc. for EUR188 million ($185.3 million) subject to a
purchase price adjustment. On February 12, 2003, Milacron Inc. and
Kennametal signed a settlement agreement with respect to the calculation
of the post-closing purchase price adjustment for the Widia acquisition
pursuant to which Milacron paid Kennametal EUR 18.8 million ($20.1
million) in cash. The net cash purchase price of $167.1 million includes
the actual purchase price of $185.3 million less the settlement of $20.1
million plus $6.2 million of direct acquisition costs ($1.1 million paid
in 2002 and $5.1 million paid in 2003) less $4.3 million of acquired cash.
We financed the acquisition with funds borrowed under the 2002 Credit
Agreement. The acquisition of Widia improves our global competitiveness,
strengthens our European position and represents a strong platform for
increased penetration in Asia. Widia's operating results have been
included in our consolidated results since August 30, 2002. The fair
market value of the Widia tangible and intangible assets were determined
by an independent appraiser.

In accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," we accounted for
the acquisition using the purchase method of accounting. As a result of
the acquisition we have recorded approximately $59.7 million of goodwill
and $27.2 million of other intangibles. Of the $27.2 million of
identifiable intangible assets approximately $6.4 million has a definite
life and therefore will be amortized over its remaining useful life. In
accordance with SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," the
goodwill will not be amortized but will instead be subject to an annual
impairment test.

In conjunction with the Widia acquisition, we reviewed the estimated lives
currently being used for existing Kennametal assets, and have determined
that the current useful lives should be extended to more appropriately
match the life of the asset. Starting July 1, 2003, we have changed our
accounting policy regarding machinery and equipment and have extended our
useful lives from a maximum life of 10 years to 15 years.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data presented below gives
effect to the Widia acquisition as if it had occurred as of the beginning
of each period presented. The pro forma adjustments are based upon
available information and certain assumptions that we believe are
reasonable, including additional interest expense that resulted from the
transaction, net of any applicable income tax effects. The unaudited pro
forma consolidated financial data is not necessarily indicative of the
operating results that would have occurred had the acquisition been
consummated on the date indicated, nor are they indicative of future
operating results. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data
should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial
statements and accompanying notes.

Net income 8,764 6,188
Basic earnings per share 0.25 0.18
Diluted earnings per share 0.24 0.18



Additionally, during the current quarter, we acquired 11.5 percent of the
outstanding minority interest of our subsidiary in India for a total
consideration of $5.0 million, bringing our ownership interest to 88.2
percent. This transaction resulted in $1.3 million of goodwill.

5. INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. We use the last-in,
first-out (LIFO) method for determining the cost of a significant portion
of our U.S. inventories. The cost for the remainder of our inventories is
determined under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost methods.
We used the LIFO method of valuing inventories for approximately 40
percent of total inventories at both September 30, 2003 and June 30, 2003.
Because inventory valuations under the LIFO method are based on an annual
determination of quantities and costs as of June 30 of each year, the
interim LIFO valuations are based on our projections of expected year-end
inventory levels and costs. Therefore, the interim financial results are
subject to any final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

Inventories as of the balance sheet dates consisted of the following (in
thousands):

6. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation
activities at several of our manufacturing facilities. In addition, we are
currently named as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at the Li
Tungsten Superfund site in Glen Cove, New York. In December 1999, we
recorded a remediation reserve of $3.0 million with respect to our
involvement in these matters, which was recorded as a component of
operating expense. This represents our best estimate of the undiscounted
future obligation based on our evaluations and discussions with outside
counsel and independent consultants, and the current facts and
circumstances related to these matters. We recorded this liability because
certain events occurred, including the identification of other PRPs, an
assessment of potential remediation solutions and direction from the
government for the remedial action plan that clarified our level of
involvement in these matters and our relationship to other PRPs. This led
us to conclude that it was probable a liability had been incurred. At
September 30, 2003, we have an accrual of $2.8 million remaining relative
to this environmental issue. No cash payments have been made against this
reserve during the quarter.

In addition to the amount currently reserved, we may be subject to loss
contingencies related to these matters estimated to be up to an additional
$3.0 million. We believe that such undiscounted unreserved losses are
reasonably possible but are not currently considered to be probable of
occurrence. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental
concerns could change substantially in the near term due to factors such
as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial
requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the
financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the
involvement of and direction taken by government agencies on these
matters.

Additionally, we also maintain reserves for other potential environmental
issues associated with our domestic operations and a location operated by
our German subsidiary. At September 30, 2003, the total of these accruals
was $1.0 million and represents anticipated costs associated with the
remediation of these issues. Cash payments of $0.3 million have been made
against this reserve during the quarter.

As a result of the Widia acquisition, we have established a separate
environmental reserve of $6.2 million. This reserve will be used for
environmental clean-up and remediation activities at several Widia
manufacturing locations. This liability represents our best estimate of
the future obligation based on our evaluations and discussions with
independent consultants and the current facts and circumstances related to
these matters. This liability has been recorded as part of the Widia
acquisition and has not been reflected in our operating results. No cash
payments have been made against this reserve during the quarter.

We maintain a Corporate Environmental, Health and Safety (EH&S)
Department, as well as an EH&S Policy Committee, to ensure compliance with
environmental regulations and to monitor and oversee remediation
activities. In addition, we have established an EH&S administrator at all
our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team
periodically meets with members of the Corporate EH&S Department and the
Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of
environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we
establish or adjust financial provisions and reserves for environmental
contingencies in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard (SFAS) No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies."

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the period, while diluted earnings per share is
calculated to reflect the potential dilution that occurs related to
issuance of capital stock under stock option grants and restricted stock
awards. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share
relates solely to the effect of capital stock options and restricted stock
awards.

For purposes of determining the number of diluted shares outstanding,
weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share
calculations were increased due solely to the dilutive effect of
unexercised stock options and restricted stock awards by 652,271 and
298,741 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. Unexercised stock options to purchase our capital stock of
1.4 million and 1.7 million shares at September 30, 2003 and 2002,
respectively, are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per
share because the option exercise price was greater than the average
market price.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, we realigned certain
operations to provide for enhanced marketing benefits. As a result we have
transferred a portion of the goodwill, that resulted from the acquisition,
from MSSG to AMSG. The increase in goodwill is associated with final
purchase price accounting adjustments related to the acquisition of Widia
and the purchase of minority interest shares in India.

The components of our other intangible assets and useful lives are as

2003 FACILITY CONSOLIDATION PROGRAM In June 2003, we approved a facility
consolidation program. This program is expected to have restructuring
charges of approximately $2.5 million. The plan includes the closure of
two regional operating centers and the Framingham manufacturing facility
and a workforce reduction. All actions pertain to the MSSG segment. All
costs associated with the restructuring program are expected to be
incurred and paid by December 31, 2003, except certain lease costs which
extend to 2005.

2003 WORKFORCE RESTRUCTURING PROGRAM In October 2002, we announced a
global salaried workforce reduction of approximately five percent. The
reduction as announced was expected to cost between $9 million and $10
million. The expected cost was revised to $8.0 million and the plan has
been completed as of September 30, 2003. The program resulted in $2.8
million of charges for the MSSG segment, $2.6 million for AMSG, $1.3
million for J&L, $0.1 million for FSS and $1.2 million for Corporate. The
components of the restructuring accrual are as follows:

The restructuring accrual at September 30, 2003 represents expected future
cash payments for these obligations over the next three months.

WIDIA INTEGRATION In addition to the 2003 Workforce Restructuring Program,
we have implemented two Widia acquisition-related integration programs
(Kennametal Integration Restructuring Program and the Widia Integration
Plan) which together are expected to result in a global headcount
reduction of approximately 760 positions. Our original estimates were
between 650 and 700 positions and has been increased due to additional
headcount reductions in Europe and India. We have substantially completed
the integration plan in Europe and we have closed six sales offices, three
manufacturing facilities and closed or consolidated four warehouses. As of
September 30, 2003, we have terminated 385 employees in Europe. We have
also implemented a restructuring program in India. Phase one of the India
program involved the termination of 225 employees and has been completed.
Phase two will be implemented in the quarter ended December 31, 2003 and
will involve the termination of approximately 150 employees. We expect the
completion of all integration activities by December 31, 2003.

12. SEGMENT DATA

We operate four global business units consisting of Metalworking Solutions
& Services Group (MSSG), Advanced Materials Solutions Group (AMSG), J&L
Industrial Supply (J&L) and Full Service Supply (FSS), and corporate
functional shared services. We do not allocate corporate costs, domestic
pension expense, interest expense, other expense, income taxes, or
minority interest to the operating segment results presented below. During
the quarter ended September 30, 2003, we realigned certain business
operations to provide for enhanced marketing benefits. This realignment
has resulted in a change in segment reporting. The most significant change
is the realignment of our Wear Parts business from the MSSG segment to the
AMSG segment. The prior year information has been reclassified to reflect
this change. Our external sales, intersegment sales and operating income
by segment for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are as
follows (in thousands):

13. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Effective October 9, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
elected to defer the effective date to December 31, 2003, for applying the
provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 for interests held by public
entities in variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003.
This standard is not expected to have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." This
standard requires that certain financial instruments embodying an
obligation to transfer assets or to issue equity securities be classified
as liabilities. It is effective for financial instruments entered into or
modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is generally effective July 1,
2003. This standard has no impact on our consolidated financial
statements.

In January 2003, the EITF released Issue No. 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"),
"Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables," which addresses certain
aspects of the accounting by a vendor for arrangement under which it will
perform multiple revenue-generating activities. Specifically, EITF 00-21
addresses whether an arrangement contains more than one unit of accounting
and the measurement and allocation to the separate units of accounting in
the arrangement. EITF 00-21 is effective for revenue arrangements entered
into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. This standard has no
material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


14. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On November 13, 2003, Kennametal announced a plan amendment for selected
participants in the Retirement Income Plan ("the Plan") effective January
1, 2004. The Plan currently covers the majority of the Company's U.S.
workforce. Effective, January 1, 2004, no new employees will become
eligible to participate in the Plan. Benefits under the Plan will continue
to accrue after December 31, 2003 only for certain employees
("Grandfathered Participants"). Benefits for all other Participants will
be frozen effective December 31, 2003. All eligible employees hired on or
after January 1, 2004 and all non-Grandfathered Participants in the Plan
will be eligible to participate in a new defined contribution benefit
which will provide for a fixed contribution equal to 3% of the employee's
compensation and will allow for a variable contribution up to an
additional 3% depending on the Company's performance. This Plan amendment
will result in a curtailment under FAS 88 "Employers' Accounting for
Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for
Termination Benefits." We expect this amendment to result in a pre-tax
charge in the quarter ending December 31, 2003 of approximately $1.1
million. Additionally, we expect pre-tax pension expense savings of
approximately $3.0 to $4.0 million in 2004.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. You can identify these
forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as "should,"
"anticipate," "estimate," "approximate," "expect," "may," "will," "project,"
"intend," "plan," "believe" and other words of similar meaning and expression in
connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. One

strictly to historical or current facts. These statements are likely to relate
to, among other things, our goals, plans and projections regarding our financial
position, results of operations, cash flows, market position and product
development, which are based on current expectations that involve inherent risks
and uncertainities, including factors that could delay, divert or change any of
them in the next several years. Although it is not possible to predict or
identify all factors, they may include the following: global economic
conditions; future terrorist attacks; epidemics; risks associated with
integrating and divesting businesses and achieving the expected savings and
synergies; demands on management resources; risks associated with international
markets such as currency exchange rates, and social and political environments;
competition; labor relations; commodity prices; demand for and market acceptance
of new and existing products, and risks associated with the implementation of
restructuring plans and environmental remediation matters. We can give no
assurance that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be
achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such
statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to
release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of
future events or developments.

SALES
- -----

Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 were $444.6 million, an increase
of $40.4 million or 10.0 percent from $404.2 million in the prior year. The
increase in sales is attributed to the positive benefit of $14.2 million of
favorable foreign currency effects and $31.5 million from the Widia acquisition,
offset in part, by persistent weakness in our European markets.

GROSS PROFIT MARGIN
- -------------------

Gross profit margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 remained flat at
32.4 percent. The gross margin benefited from the favorable foreign currency
translation effects which were $7.7 million or 1.7 percent of sales.
Additionally, as previously announced, we have reviewed and changed the
estimated lives that were used for existing Kennametal machinery and equipment.
Starting July 1, 2003, we extended the useful lives of these assets from a
maximum life of 10 years to 15 years. This change has resulted in a benefit to
gross margin during the current quarter of $4.3 million or 0.9 percent of sales.

These benefits were offset by pension expense which reduced gross margin by $2.1
million or 0.5 percent of sales and pricing pressures in the J&L, FSS and
Electronics businesses and unfavorable effects of lower production levels.
Additionally, the current quarter reflects additional depreciation expense of
approximately $1.0 million or 0.2 percent of sales resulting from the step-up in
basis of the Widia assets based on a third party appraisal completed in June
2003. Finally, we also experienced a year-over-year increase in integration
costs and restructuring activities of $3.0 million or 0.7 percent of sales.

Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 was $144.1 million an
increase of $13.1 million from the prior year. The increase of $13.1 million is
related to higher sales volume from the Widia acquisition.

OPERATING EXPENSE
- -----------------

Operating expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 was $121.2 million,
an increase of $16.4 million or 15.6 percent, compared to $104.8 million of a
year ago. The increase in operating expenses is associated with the Widia
acquisition of $8.4 million, $5.0 million of unfavorable foreign currency
effects, an increase in pension expense of $1.5 million and an increase in costs
of $1.0 million associated with the company match on 401(k) contributions.
Additionally, the current quarter has an increase in integration costs of $0.7
million from the same quarter last year.

PENSION AMENDMENT
- -----------------

As discussed in the notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Note
14) we have amended the Retirement Income Plan effective January 1, 2004. We
expect this amendment to result in a total charge in the quarter ending December
31, 2003 of approximately $1.1 million. We also expect this amendment to result
in pre-tax pension expense savings of approximately $3.0 to $4.0 million in
2004. This savings will impact both gross margin and operating expenses. The
anticipated benefit to gross margin is expected to be $1.8 million to $2.4
million in 2004. The anticipated benefit to operating expense is expected to be
$1.2 million to $1.6 million in 2004.

RESTRUCTURING AND ASSET IMPAIRMENT CHARGE

2003 FACILITY CONSOLIDATION PROGRAM In June 2003, we approved a facility
consolidation program. This program is expected to have restructuring charges of
approximately $2.5 million and is anticipated to generate in excess of $1.5
million in cash savings annually. The plan includes the closure of two regional
operating centers and the Framingham manufacturing facility and a workforce
reduction. All actions pertain to the MSSG segment. All costs associated with
the restructuring program are expected to be incurred and paid by December 31,
2003, except certain lease costs which extend to 2005.

2003 WORKFORCE RESTRUCTURING PROGRAM In October 2002, we announced a global
salaried workforce reduction of approximately five percent. The reduction as
announced was expected to cost between $9 million and $10 million. The expected
cost was revised to $8.0 million and the plan has been completed as of September
30, 2003. The plan is expected to generate in excess of $15 million in annual
cash savings. The program resulted in $2.8 million of charges for the MSSG
segment, $2.6 million for AMSG, $1.3 million for J&L, $0.1 million for FSS and
$1.2 million for Corporate. The components of the restructuring accrual are as
follows:

The restructuring accrual at September 30, 2003 represents expected future cash

WIDIA INTEGRATION In addition to the 2003 Workforce Restructuring Program, we
have implemented two Widia acquisition-related integration programs (Kennametal
Integration Restructuring Program and the Widia Integration Plan) which together
are expected to result in a global headcount reduction of approximately 760
positions. Our original estimates were between 650 and 700 positions and has
been increased due to additional headcount reductions in Europe and India. The
integration plan is expected to result in annual cost savings of $30 million
annually. We have substantially completed the integration plan in Europe and we
have closed six sales offices, three manufacturing facilities and closed or
consolidated four warehouses. As of September 30, 2003, we have terminated 385
employees in Europe. We also implemented a restructuring program in India. Phase
one of the India program involved the termination of 225 employees and has been
completed. Phase two will be implemented in the December 2003 quarter and will
involve the termination of approximately 150 employees. We expect the completion
of all integration activities by December 31, 2003.

KENNAMETAL INTEGRATION RESTRUCTURING PROGRAM This program will include employee

costs associated with the acquired Widia Restructuring Program, 2002 AMSG and
MSSG Restructuring Programs and the 2002 and 2001 J&L and FSS Business
Improvement Programs. Remaining cash expenditures for all of these programs is
$0.9 million and relates primarily to final lease payments. We expect all
remaining cash payments to be completed by June 30, 2004. We continue to believe
these programs have generated in excess of $16.0 million in annual cost savings
for Kennametal.

INTEREST EXPENSE
- ----------------

Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 declined 22.2 percent
to $6.6 million from $8.5 million a year ago. The decrease in interest expense
is due to total debt, including capital leases and notes payable, decreasing
from $616.6 million at September 30, 2002 to $520.1 million at September 30,
2003. Additionally, the average borrowing rate decreased from 5.57 percent in
2002 to 4.26 percent in 2003. The decrease in the average borrowing rate is due
to the decrease in market interest rates and an increase in the percentage of
our debt that is subject to floating rates of interest. As of September 30,
2002, 65.7 percent of our debt was subject to variable rates of interest
compared to 69.1 percent of our debt at September 30, 2003.

OTHER EXPENSE, NET
- ------------------

Other expense increased $0.7 million from $0.6 million in 2002 to $1.3 million
in 2003. Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002
included fees of $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, incurred in
connection with the accounts receivable securitization program. The decline in
these fees is due to lower interest rates in the commercial paper market. The
other significant component is the increase in foreign exchange losses which
increased $0.9 million from $0.8 million in 2002 to $1.7 million in 2003.

INCOME TAXES
- ------------

The effective tax rate was 32.0 percent for both the September 2003 quarter and
for the year-ago quarter. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate
primarily due to international tax planning initiatives.

NET INCOME
- ----------

Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 was $8.8 million, or $0.24
per diluted share, compared to a $10.8 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, in
the same quarter last year. The decline in earnings is primarily attributable to
an increase in operating expenses which increased $16.4 million or from 26.0
percent of sales to 27.3 percent of sales and integration and restructuring
activities which increased $3.0 million.

Operating income 23,502 23,610


MSSG sales increased 12.6 percent or $30.3 million compared to the quarter ended
September 30, 2002. The increase in sales is attributed to the positive benefits
of $11.1 million of favorable foreign currency effects and $26.0 million from
the Widia acquisition. The prior year includes one month of Widia operating
results, whereas the current year includes three months of operating results. In
Metalworking North America, sales were flat compared to the prior year.
Metalworking Europe increased $25.4 million, or 30.6 percent, due to the Widia
acquisition and favorable foreign currency effects offset by overall weakness in
Europe and specifically the automotive sector. Additionally, the Industrial
Products Group had a decline in sales of $4.4 million or 8.8 percent, due to
weakness in the high speed steel market. This was offset by Asia Pacific which
increased sales by $2.7 million or 18 percent. The increase in sales is
attributed to strength in the automotive sector specific to this region. South
America also delivered revenue growth of $1.6 million or 54.5 percent, due to
favorable economic conditions and market share growth.

Operating income of $23.5 million was down slightly compared to $23.6 million
last year. This was due primarily to an increase in restructuring and
integration costs of $4.2 million, increase in foreign pension costs and
reinstatement of the 401(k) match. This was offset in part by lower depreciation
expense resulting from the extension of useful lives, favorable foreign currency
effects, Kennametal Lean Enterprise initiatives, integration benefits and
on-going cost controls.

AMSG sales increased 12.3 percent or $10.2 million from the quarter ended
September 30, 2002. The increase in sales is attributed to the positive benefits
of $2.8 million related to favorable foreign currency effects and $5.5 million
from the Widia acquisition. The Energy Products Group experienced strong growth
of $2.6 million or 17 percent year-over-year due to increased activity in oil
and gas exploration. Mining and construction had a $4.3 million or 8.8 percent
increase in revenue due to the Widia acquisition, favorable foreign currency
effects and to a modest recovery in mining and growth in construction.
Additionally, the Engineered Products Group had an increase in sales of $2.6
million or 12.3 percent due to the Widia acquisition and favorable foreign
currency effects.

Operating income was $11.8 million compared to $11.4 million last year due to an
increase in sales, reduced depreciation expense, favorable foreign currency

J&L sales declined slightly compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2002.
The decline in sales is primarily attributable to flat volume and due to pricing
pressures. Operating income was $2.7 million in the September 2003 quarter,
compared to $2.2 million in the prior year. The increase in operating income is
a result of cost containment and benefits from prior restructuring programs.

Operating loss $ (15,880) $ (11,639)


Corporate and eliminations represents corporate management and administrative
costs, domestic pension costs and eliminations of operating results between
segments. The increase in operating loss is attributed to an increase in
domestic pension expense of $2.9 million and increase in shared service costs of
$1.3 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

Our cash flow from operations is the primary source of financing for capital
expenditures and internal growth. During the quarter ended September 30, 2003,
we generated $12.2 million in cash flow from operations, a decrease of $26.1
million compared to the year-ago quarter. The decrease in operating cash flow is
due to increased income tax payments of $19.6 million. Additionally,
restructuring payments also increased to $5.2 million in 2003 from $2.4 million
in 2002.

We expect to spend approximately $30 million for restructuring during the
remainder of the current fiscal year. This includes $3 to $4 million of
additional charges in the quarter ending December 31, 2003 related to the
Kennametal Integration Restructuring program.

Net cash used for investing activities was $14.9 million, a decrease of $179.2
million compared to the year-ago quarter. The change is almost entirely due to
the net cost paid for Widia of $183.8 million. Capital expenditures remained
flat quarter-over-quarter at approximately $10.6 million. We have projected our
capital expenditures for 2004 to be $60 to $70 million and will be primarily
used to support new strategic initiatives, new products and to upgrade machinery
and equipment. We believe this level of capital spending is sufficient to
maintain competitiveness and improve productivity.

Net cash provided from financing activities was $2.1 million, a decrease of
$158.1 million compared to the same period last year. This decrease is due to
the incremental borrowings required to finance the Widia acquisition of $185.3
million, partially offset by decreases in notes payable and lines of credit in
2002.

As of September 30, 2003, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

On July 3, 2003, the Company entered into a new three-year securitization
program ("2003 Securitization Program") which permitted us to securitize up to
$100.0 million of accounts receivable. The 2003 Securitization Program was
amended on September 19, 2003, permitting the Company to securitize up to $125
million of accounts receivable. The 2003 Securitization Program provides for
co-purchase arrangement with Falcon Asset Securitization Corporation and Victory
Receivables Corporation, whereby the two financial institutions participate in
the purchase of the Company's accounts receivable.

Total debt, including notes payable and capital leases decreased from $616.6
million at September 30, 2002 to $520.1 million at September 30, 2003. The
significant decrease in total debt is related to operating cash flow being used
to reduce debt.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

Total assets were $1,809.6 million at September 30, 2003, compared to $1,813.9
million at June 30, 2003. Working capital was $452.0 million, up slightly from
$446.0 million at June 30, 2003. The working capital increase was primarily due
to a decrease in Accounts Payable and Accrued Income Taxes offset by increases
in Accrued Restructuring and Accrued Payroll.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
- ------------------------------------

Effective October 9, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
elected to defer the effective date to December 31, 2003, for applying the
provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 for interests held by public entities
in variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003. This standard is
not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Instruments
with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." This standard requires
that certain financial instruments embodying an obligation to transfer assets or
to issue equity securities be classified as liabilities. It is effective for
financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise
is generally effective July 1, 2003. This standard has no impact on our
consolidated financial statements.

In January 2003, the EITF released Issue No. 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), "Revenue
Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables," which addresses certain aspects of the
accounting by a vendor for arrangement under which it will perform multiple
revenue-generating activities. Specifically, EITF 00-21 addresses whether an
arrangement contains more than one unit of accounting and the measurement and
allocation to the separate units of accounting in the arrangement. EITF 00-21 is
effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning
after June 15, 2003. This standard has no material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have experienced certain changes in our exposure to market risk from June 30,
2003.

During the quarter, we recognized a non-cash decrease of $7.1 million in our
long-term debt associated with our fixed-to-floating interest rate swap
agreements. In accordance with the accounting mandated by SFAS No. 133, the
recent increase that has occurred in the variable interest rate market has
necessitated this mark-to-market adjustment.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the
Company's management evaluated, with the participation of the company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the
company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company's disclosure controls were designed to
provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in
reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be
noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance
that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been
designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls' stated
goals. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level. There were no
changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected or
are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
