NOTE A — Basis of Presentation

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Park-Ohio Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Park-Ohio”, “the Company”). Park-Ohio is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

      The accompanying unaudited 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, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. 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, 2003.

NOTE B — Acquisition and Dispositions

      On August 23, 2004, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the Automotive Components Group (“Amcast Components Group”) of Amcast Industrial Corporation. The purchase price was approximately $10.0 million in cash and the assumption of approximately $9.0 million of operating liabilities. The acquisition was funded with borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The purchase price and the results of operations of Amcast Components Group prior to its date of acquisition were not deemed significant as defined in Regulation S-X. The results of operations for Amcast Components Group have been included since August 23, 2004.

      The tentative allocation of the purchase price has been performed based on the assignment of fair values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Final fair values will be based primarily on appraisals yet to be performed by an independent appraisal firm.

      The tentative allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

      The Company has a plan for integration activities and plant rationalizations. In accordance with FASB EITF Issue No. 95-3, “Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination”, the

Company recorded accruals for severance, exit and relocation costs in the purchase price allocation. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending accrual balances is as follows:

      On April 1, 2004, the Company acquired the remaining 66% of the common stock of Japan Ajax Magnethermic Company (“Jamco”) for cash existing on the balance sheet of Jamco at that date. No additional purchase price was paid by the Company. The purchase price and the results of operations of Jamco prior to its date of acquisition were not deemed significant as defined in Regulation S-X.

      During the first quarter of 2003, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of Green Bearing (“Green”) and St. Louis Screw and Bolt (“St. Louis Screw”) for cash of approximately $7.3 million in the aggregate. No gains or losses were recorded on the sales. Green and St. Louis Screw were non-core businesses in the ILS Segment and Manufactured Products Segment, respectively, and had been identified as businesses the Company was selling as part of its restructuring activities during 2002 and 2001.

NOTE C — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

      In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 132R, “Employers’ Disclosure about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits.” SFAS No. 132R requires, among other things, additional disclosures about the components of pension expense for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2003. The Company adopted this pronouncement as of December 31, 2003 and included the revised annual disclosure in its 2003 Form 10-K. See Note H to the consolidated financial statements in this report for the required interim disclosures.

      In December 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the “Medicare Act”) was enacted in the United States. The Medicare Act, among other things, expanded existing Medicare healthcare benefits to include an outpatient prescription drug benefit to Medicare eligible residents of the U.S. (“Part D”) beginning in 2006. Prescription drug coverage will be available to eligible individuals who voluntarily enroll under a Part D plan. As an alternative, employers may provide drug coverage at least “actuarially equivalent to standard coverage” and receive a tax-free federal subsidy equal to 28% of a portion of a Medicare beneficiary’s drug costs. However, if covered retirees enroll in a Part D plan, the employer would not receive the subsidy.

      The FASB has proposed Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS No. 106-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003,” to provide guidance on accounting for effects of this healthcare benefit legislation. The FSP would treat the effect of the employer subsidy on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (“APBO”) as an actuarial gain. The effect of the subsidy would also be reflected in the estimate of service cost in measuring the cost of benefits attributable to current service. The effects of plan amendments adopted subsequent to the adoption of the Medicare Act to qualify plans as actuarially equivalent would be treated as actuarial gains if the net effect of the amendments reduces the APBO. The net effect on the APBO of any plan amendments that (a) reduce benefits under the plan and thus disqualify the benefits as actuarially equivalent and (b) eliminate the subsidy would be accounted for as prior service cost.

      The Company has completed its assessment of the provisions of the Medicare Act on its postretirement healthcare plans. The effect of the Medicare Act is a reduction to the APBO of $2.4 million. The effect of the

Medicare Act will reduce the net periodic postretirement benefit cost by $.3 million in 2004. During the three months ended September 30, 2004, the Company recorded reduction to the net periodic postretirement benefit cost of $.2 million.

NOTE D — Inventories

      The components of inventory consist of the following:

NOTE E — Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits

      Effective December 31, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits”. This standard requires the disclosure of the components of net periodic benefit cost recognized during interim periods.
