NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 including the audited financial statements and notes thereto included therein. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations and consolidated cash flows have been included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. NOTE 2 - STOCK COMPENSATION COSTS The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized in the financial statements with respect to stock options. Had compensation cost for the Company's plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the plans, consistent with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation," as amended by SFAS No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure", the pro forma net loss and loss per share for the three months ended March 31, would have been as follows: (in thousands, except per share amounts) 2004 2003 ------ ------- Net loss: As reported $ (413) $(4,335) Stock based compensation costs, net of tax (52) (64) ------ ------- Pro forma $ (465) $(4,399) ====== ======= Basic net loss per common share: As reported $(0.06) $ (0.61) Pro forma $(0.07) $ (0.62) Diluted net loss per common share: As reported $(0.06) $ (0.61) Pro forma $(0.07) $ (0.62) NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE LOSS For the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" was comprised of the reported net loss for the period of $0.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively. 6 NOTE 4 - RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER SPECIAL CHARGES During 2003, the Company completed the $7.0 million restructuring program that it had commenced during the third quarter of 2001. The program was designed around business initiatives to improve the Company's operating performance, including the redesign of our distribution system, headcount reductions, the transfer of production between manufacturing facilities and a reevaluation of our product offerings. The Company also added approximately $0.9 million of new relocation programs in 2003 to include the relocation of Fedco's inventory and machinery to Mexico and salaried headcount reductions made in order to lower overall operating costs. The remaining reserve balance at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 is classified in other accrued liabilities. A summary of the reserve activity is as follows:

Balance at Charge to Cash Non-Cash Balance at December 31, 2003 Operations Payments Write-off March 31, 2004 ----------------- ---------- -------- --------- -------------- (in thousands) Workforce related $ 199 -- $(111) -- $ 88 Facility consolidations 23 -- (23) -- -- ----- ------ ----- ------ ---- Total $ 222 -- $(134) -- $ 88 ===== ====== ===== ====== ====

Cash payments for severance programs are expected to continue through the end of 2004. NOTE 5 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 132 (Revised 2003) "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" which replaces the original SFAS 132 and revises employers' financial statement disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement plans. The Company has adopted the applicable provisions of this Statement in its reporting of the financial results for the year ended December 31, 2003 and has implemented the interim reporting requirements in the financial statements included with this filing. 7 NOTE 6 - LOSS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share: (in thousands, except per share amounts)

Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------- 2004 2003 ------- -------- Numerator: Net loss $ (413) $ (4,335) Deduct preferred stock dividend (16) (16) ------- -------- Net loss attributable to common stockholders - basic (429) (4,351) Add back preferred stock dividend -- -- ------- -------- Net loss attributable to common stockholders - diluted $ (429) $ (4,351) ======= ======== Denominator: Weighted average common shares-- basic 7,106 7,106 Dilutive effect of Series B preferred stock -- -- Dilutive effect of stock options -- -- ------- -------- Adjusted weighted average common shares and equivalents -- diluted 7,106 7,106 ======= ======== Loss per common share -- basic $ (0.06) $ (0.61) ======= ======== -- diluted $ (0.06) $ (0.61) ======= ========

The weighted average basic common shares outstanding was used in the calculation of the diluted loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 as the use of weighted average diluted common shares outstanding would have an anti-dilutive effect on the loss per share. Certain options to purchase common stock were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, but were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of common shares for the period. The anti-dilutive options outstanding and their exercise prices are as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------- 2004 2003 -------------- -------------- Options outstanding 80,300 83,800 Range of exercise prices $5.50 - $11.75 $5.50 - $11.75 8 NOTE 7 - BUSINESS SEGMENT DATA The Company is organized into two segments, also referred to herein as strategic business groups ("SBG"), based on the type of customer served -- Automotive and Light Truck, and Heavy Duty. The Automotive and Light Truck SBG is comprised of a Heat Exchange Unit and a Temperature Control Products Unit, both serving the aftermarket. The Heavy Duty SBG consists of an OEM and Aftermarket unit, both serving the heavy-duty marketplace. The table below sets forth information about the reported segments: Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------- 2004 2003 ------- ------- (in thousands) Trade sales: Automotive and Light Truck $43,392 $39,096 Heavy Duty 17,816 13,604 Intersegment transfers: Automotive and Light Truck 1,716 855 Heavy Duty -- -- Eliminations (1,716) (855) ------- ------- Total net sales $61,208 $52,700 ======= ======= Operating income (loss): Automotive and Light Truck $ 2,066 $ (632) Restructuring and other special charges -- (60) ------- ------- Automotive and Light Truck total 2,066 (692) ------- ------- Heavy Duty (27) (1,350) Restructuring and other special charges -- (358) ------- ------- Heavy Duty total (27) (1,708) ------- ------- Corporate expenses (1,647) (1,489) ------- ------- Total operating income (loss) $ 392 $(3,889) ======= ======= NOTE 8 - RETIREMENT AND POST-RETIREMENT PLANS The components of net periodic benefit costs for the first quarter of 2004 and 2003 are as follows: RETIREMENT PLANS POSTRETIREMENT PLANS ---------------- -------------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 ---- ---- ---- ---- (in thousands) Service cost $214 $277 $ 1 $ 1 Interest cost 456 622 10 10 Expected return on plan assets (560) (692) -- -- Amortization of net loss 59 49 1 1 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net periodic benefit cost $169 $256 $12 $12 ==== ==== ==== ==== 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION The Company designs, manufactures and markets radiators, radiator cores, heater cores, air conditioning parts (including condensers, compressors, accumulators and evaporators) and other heat transfer products for the automotive and light truck aftermarket. In addition, the Company designs, manufactures and distributes radiators, radiator cores, charge air coolers, oil coolers and other specialty heat exchangers for original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") of heavy trucks and industrial and off-highway equipment and the heavy duty heat exchanger aftermarket. The Company is organized into two strategic business groups based upon the type of customer served - Automotive and Light Truck and Heavy Duty. Management evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based upon operating income (loss) before taxes as well as cash flow from operations which reflects operating results and asset management. In order to evaluate market trends and changes, management utilizes a variety of economic and industry data including miles driven by vehicles, average age of vehicles, gasoline usage and pricing and automotive and light truck vehicle population data. In the heavy duty segment, we also utilize Class 7 and 8 truck production data and industrial and off-highway equipment production. Management looks to grow the business through a combination of internal growth, including the addition of new customers and new products, and strategic acquisitions. At the end of 2002, the Company acquired certain assets of Fedco Automotive Components Company. This acquisition strengthened our position in the heater core market, provided the Company with a new major customer, provided the capability for in-house production of aluminum heaters and allowed us to maximize the benefits generated by the in-house production of copper/brass heaters at our Mexican plant. During 2003, the Company completed the $7.0 million restructuring program that it had commenced during the third quarter of 2001. The program was designed around business initiatives to improve the Company's operating performance, including the redesign of our distribution system, headcount reductions, the transfer of production between manufacturing facilities and a reevaluation of our product offerings. The Company also added approximately $0.9 million of restructuring programs in 2003 to include the relocation of Fedco's inventory and machinery to Mexico and salaried headcount reductions made in order to lower overall operating costs. Management believes that benefits from these initiatives will serve as a foundation for improvements expected in 2004. OPERATING RESULTS QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 VERSUS QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 Sales for the first quarter of 2004 of $61.2 million were $8.5 million or 16.1% above the first quarter of 2003. The Automotive and Light Truck segment had sales of $43.4 million, which were $4.3 million or 11.0% above the first quarter of 2003. Heat exchange product sales increased 15.1%, while temperature control product sales were 10.3% lower than the prior year period. Heat exchange product sales benefited from increased demand for heaters as a result of weather conditions in January and February, the contributions of the Fedco acquisition, which was being integrated during the first quarter of 2003, product line extensions by certain retail customers and new customer business initiated since the first quarter of 2003. Revenues, however, were unfavorably impacted by lower demand for the Company's temperature control 10 products, despite having added new customers over the prior year. Customers have changed their buying patterns such that they no longer rely heavily on large preseason orders, rather they purchase products in closer proximity to the summer season. The Company believes that the temperature control market will likely remain soft pending the arrival of hot weather. Heavy Duty segment sales in the first quarter of 2004 were $17.8 million, $4.2 million or 31.0% above the prior year period. Sales in the Heavy Duty OEM Unit were up 59.7% reflecting increased product demand from our OEM customers due to rising Class 7 and 8 truck sales and incremental revenues from new business announced subsequent to the first quarter of 2003. Heavy Duty Aftermarket Unit sales were 4.3% above the first quarter of 2003 due to the impact of new product lines recently introduced into the marketplace and an increase in unit volume caused by the positive effects of an improving economy. Gross margin, as a percentage of net sales, was 17.2% versus 13.6% in the first quarter of 2003. The improvement reflects higher sales, higher levels of productivity, lower product costs, the benefits of cost savings initiatives executed by the Company over the past three years as well as the full integration of the Fedco acquisition. Gross margin dollars also benefited from the higher level of net sales. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company began experiencing the impact of rising commodity prices. As this trend is expected to continue, a program of customer price increases is being implemented in an effort to offset these additional costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales to 16.6% from 20.2% in the first quarter of 2003. The decrease in expenses primarily reflects the Company's cost reduction programs. Expense levels in the first quarter of 2003 also reflected costs incurred by Fedco prior to the completion of the integration of this acquisition. Restructuring costs in the first quarter of 2003 of $0.4 million were associated with the closure of two regional Heavy Duty Aftermarket manufacturing plants and one Automotive and Light Truck branch location. The Company's restructuring program was completed during 2003 and only cash flow impacts are being incurred in 2004. Interest costs were 1.2% below last year's levels due to the impact of lower interest rates and lower average debt levels. Average rates on our revolving credit facility were 4.0% for the first quarter of 2004 versus 4.25% for the same period in 2003, while average borrowings for the quarter were $51.1 million in 2004 compared with $59.6 million a year ago. Discounting charges associated with a customer-sponsored vendor program administered by a financial institution are also included in interest expense. The effective tax rates of 7.6% in 2004 and 8.5% in 2003 primarily reflect only a foreign provision, as the reversal of the Company's deferred tax valuation allowances will offset a majority of the state and any federal income tax provisions. The net loss for the first quarter was $0.4 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of 2004 versus $4.3 million or $0.61 per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of 2003. FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash flow from operating activities was $8.1 million in the first quarter of 2004. Accounts receivable levels decreased by $1.2 million as the Company continued to accelerate the collection of customer receivables utilizing a cost effective customer-sponsored vendor program administered by a financial institution and by working directly with other customers. This accelerated collection was done in an effort to offset the continuing trend towards longer customer dating terms by "blue chip" customers. Inventory levels grew $1.2 million reflecting the start-up of new customer programs and increases related to typical seasonal 11 buying patterns. The Company will remain focused on managing inventory levels to match marketplace demand throughout the remainder of 2004. Accounts payable rose by $6.3 million as a result of the growth in inventory levels as well as our efforts to balance payables with the ongoing shift in customer receivables mix toward longer payment cycles. During the first three months of 2003, operations generated $4.7 million of cash. Accounts receivable declined by $2.0 million as the Company commenced its participation in a customer-sponsored vendor payment program designed to accelerate the collection of receivables. Inventories rose $6.8 million due to higher anticipated near term sales, the push-out of orders by certain customers and the Company's efforts to enhance its high level of customer service. Accounts payable rose by $9.9 million as a result of the growth in inventory levels as well as our efforts to balance payables with the ongoing shift in customer receivable mix towards longer payment cycles. The $0.7 million of capital spending during the first three months of 2004 was primarily in the Automotive and Light Truck segment. This reflected expenditures for new product introduction, cost reductions and computer upgrades. The Company expects that capital expenditures for the year will be between $5.5 million and $6.5 million. Total debt at March 31, 2004 was $44.1 million, compared to $50.9 million at the end of 2003 and $55.6 million at March 31, 2003. The reduction from year-end reflects the utilization of cash generated by operating activities, while the reduction from a year ago also reflects the pay down of a $5.0 million Industrial Revenue Bond upon the sale of the New Haven, Connecticut headquarters facility in May 2003. At March 31, 2004 the Company had $8.7 million available for future borrowings under its Loan Agreement. The future liquidity and ordinary capital needs of the Company in the short term are expected to be met from a combination of cash flows from operations and borrowings under the existing Loan Agreement. The Company's working capital requirements peak during the second and third quarters, reflecting the normal seasonality in the Automotive and Light Truck segment. In addition, the Company's future cash flow may be impacted by industry trends lengthening customer payment terms or the discontinuance of currently utilized customer sponsored payment programs. The loss of one or more of the Company's significant customers or changes in payment terms to one or more major suppliers could also have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and future liquidity. During 2003, the Company began utilizing a customer-sponsored program administered by a financial institution in order to accelerate the collection of funds and offset the impact of these lengthening terms. The Company intends to continue utilizing this program as long as it is a cost effective tool to accelerate cash flow and will expand its usage as other customers make it available. The Company believes that its cash flow from operations, together with borrowings under its Loan Agreement, will be adequate to meet its near-term anticipated ordinary capital expenditures and working capital requirements. However, the Company believes that the amount of borrowings available under the Loan Agreement would not be sufficient to meet the capital needs for major growth initiatives, such as significant acquisitions. If the Company were to implement major new growth initiatives, it would have to seek additional sources of capital. However, no assurance can be given that the Company would be successful in securing such additional sources of capital. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES For interim reporting purposes, the Company calculates its effective income tax rate based upon the current estimate of pre-tax income for the year. The critical accounting estimates utilized by the Company remain unchanged from those disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. 12 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 132 (Revised 2003) "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" which replaces the original SFAS 132 and revises employers' financial statement disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement plans. The Company adopted the applicable provisions of this Statement in its reporting of the financial results for the year ended December 31, 2003 and has implemented the interim reporting requirements in the financial statements included with this filing. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND CAUTIONARY FACTORS Statements included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which are not historical in nature, are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain detailed factors that could cause the Company's actual results to materially differ from the forward-looking statements made by the Company. In particular, statements relating to the future financial performance of the Company are subject to business conditions and growth in the general economy and automotive and truck business, the impact of competitive products and pricing, changes in customer and product mix, failure to obtain new customers or retain old customers or changes in the financial stability of customers, changes in the cost of raw materials, components or finished products and changes in interest rates and continued availability under the Company's Loan Agreement. The forward-looking statements contained in this filing are made as of the date hereof, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company has certain exposures to market risk related to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and the price of commodities used in our manufacturing process. There have been no material changes in market risk since the filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Company's Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and 13 procedures as of March 31, 2004. Based on the foregoing, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2.
