See Note K to the consolidated financial statements for financial information by reportable segment and by geographical area.

Products and Services

Automated Data Systems Segment

Intermec products and services include mobile computing solutions for the field worker, automated data collection systems for on-premises and site-based workers, wireless network systems for wireless enablement of an enterprise, and barcode label and printing solutions. These systems, solutions and services enable Intermec's customers to more efficiently and effectively manage their supply chains and fulfillment activities. ADS accounted for 43%, 40% and 41% of the Company's consolidated revenues in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In June 2000, the ADS segment sold its Amtech Transportation Systems operations ("Amtech"). Amtech revenues were $42.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $78.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1999.

Major Intermec offices and manufacturing facilities are located in the states of Washington, Iowa, and Ohio; and internationally in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Sweden and France.

Scanners and Data Collection Systems:    Intermec develops bar code scanning and data collection products that are used primarily by non-office workers such as warehouse, delivery, manufacturing and other employees who operate outside the typical office environment. Product applications include work force automation; tracking of work in process and finished goods inventory through manufacturing, distribution and other commercial operations; and total asset visibility and real-time monitoring of inventory levels and order status to improve productivity, quality and responsiveness. The information collected, managed and exchanged by workers in these applications is often the most critical and the most susceptible to errors or omissions due to illegible handwriting, inaccurate keystrokes, or overlooked transactions. The ability to efficiently capture and wirelessly transmit information real time means more streamlined business processes. Automating these business processes is key to consistent customer service and fulfillment execution. In addition, Intermec technologies are increasingly used for automating information exchange within supply chains and facilitating shipment and fulfillment of orders. Intermec's scanning and data collection products include rugged wireless handheld computers and terminals, wand scanners, imagers, charge-couple devices (CCD), and badge and laser scanners. They are able to read or collect data and

1



move that data directly into standard ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), WMS (Warehouse Management Systems) and other business applications. The Company also manufactures a large number of industrial handheld terminals for use in warehouses and industrial environments.

Intermec is a leader in the production of next generation item-tracking technology called RFID (radio frequency identification). Intermec markets a complete range of RFID tags, readers and related equipment, and services under the Intellitag trade name. RFID wirelessly communicates important product information between a tracking device, called an interrogator, and inexpensive "tags" comprising a computer chip and its antenna encased in a protective covering. RFID tags are programmed to contain identification, serial numbers, history and other attributes. Certain RFID tags, such as Intermec's Intellitag, contain read/write memory to allow updates and tag reuse. Unlike laser scanned bar codes, Intermec's RFID tags do not require "line of sight" to be read. As many as 40 Intellitag RFID tags can be read simultaneously at distances up to 10 feet. Companies have expressed interest in using RFID technology as a tool to track pallets and individual items through their entire supply chain or as a security application. Intermec is working through alliances and with other companies to broaden customer access and create standards support.

Enterprise Wireless Networks Products & Services:    Intermec is a market leader in developing wireless Local Area Network ("LAN") software, systems and services. It was the first to provide a network architecture that allows customers to use multiple radio technologies within one LAN system. Starting in the early 1980s, the Company installed digital communication between mobile computers and host servers within industrial workspaces such as warehouses, distribution centers, factories and large outdoor facilities. In 1998, the Institute for Electronic and Electrical Engineering (IEEE) promulgated a new standard for high-speed network communication via wireless radio signal. The 802.11b standard allows customers to purchase interoperable digital radios for client computing devices. In the years since the standard was established, several large network equipment vendors have begun selling 802.11b wireless LAN systems, increasing penetration for this technology among office workers and in public spaces such as hotels, restaurants and airports.

Intermec's core customers in industrial and warehousing markets purchase the Company's wireless systems primarily because these systems are much easier to implement and administer than competitive brands. Further, Intermec has a long history of success serving these markets. Finally, customers in these markets are motivated in part by their belief that the Company's systems are extremely rugged and reliable, and that reliability will prevent failures and downtime in the customer's operation. Intermec supports all major radio technologies, including synthesized UHF, 900 MHz, 802.11b, 802.11a and Bluetooth. Radio independence allows customers to choose the most efficient radio technology for their facilities. This freedom resolves data rate, transmission speed and range issues and creates a reliable communications environment. Intermec is a member of the Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance ("WECA") initiative, which provides open standards for wireless networking. Intermec's new MobileLAN® system allows customers to migrate from today's 802.11b technology to tomorrow's 802.11a, while preserving much of the current wireless infrastructure. The MobileLAN access™ 2106 access point is the first to include the 802.11a high data rate standard—a five-fold increase over 802.11b data rate speeds—allowing deployment of multimedia and other high-bandwidth applications. The Company also created wireless LAN products that specifically address the security needs of its customers. Based on IEEE 802.11i and 802.1x security standards, MobileLAN secure™ is an integrated security solution for wireless LANs that builds standards-based security capabilities into all components of the wireless LAN, including access points, authentication server software and network interface cards. Intermec's tiered wireless access point product line cost-effectively addresses diverse wireless applications found in an enterprise—both in and out of the office.

Intermec's family of products ranges from low-cost, hand-held batch and wireless data collection devices to sophisticated pen-based computers with extensive wired and wireless network capabilities. Intermec's "open systems" design philosophy delivers maximum product flexibility to customers with diverse application requirements. In combination with wireless communications, these mobile systems enable remote workers to have access to centralized computer applications and databases, to automate business processes to the point of transaction and to send and receive information on a real-time basis. This results in improved productivity, efficiency and accuracy of information. Intermec offers mobile computing application software that provides work force automation, customer level sales ordering, pricing and forecasting, and account settlement. Other software products manage work order dispatching, total field asset visibility, real-time proof of delivery, and other critical customer information. The Company has approximately 20 years of experience in developing both hardware and software for mobile computing in the direct store delivery, or DSD market. This experience gives the Company insights that it believes are essential in developing and producing successful product offerings in other mobile computing markets such as field service and logistics operators.

Bar Code Label and Printing Solutions:    The Company's line of flexible "on demand" bar code printers ranges from low-cost, light- to heavy-duty industrial models that accommodate a wide array of printing widths, materials and label configurations. These printers attach directly to enterprise networks. A variety of specialty printers provides custom capabilities including color printing, a global language enabler and high resolution (400 DPI) printing that ensures sharp fonts and precise graphics, even on extremely small labels such as those used by the electronics industry. In 2001, the Company introduced a number of important hardware innovations including the Printer Application Server™ that makes the bar code label printer a "computer-replacement" terminal that handles basic information requests from a host system without a PC. Intermec also introduced a new high-resolution bar code printer, the EasyCoder™ 3400e, which delivers high-speed output for medium-duty applications in shipping, receiving, logistics and manufacturing.

Intermec's media products include pressure-sensitive bar code labels and thermal transfer ribbons to customers worldwide. Intermec's media products emphasize service and value-added technologies, such as the design and manufacture of specialized labels to meet customer requirements for extreme environments such as clean rooms, chemical baths and high humidity.

Technologies/Trends: Intermec is consistently broadening the application of wireless networking, data capture and mobile computing by developing or integrating new technologies into its products. Recent examples include new high-speed wireless networking products such as 802.11a wireless LAN technology, new rugged Windows CE and Pocket PC based computers, short range radio systems such as "Bluetooth", and low cost, miniature CCD scan engines and new devices that use the Internet to simplify the management of wireless networks. Intermec continues to invest in and develop standards-based, low-cost RFID products for supply chain applications such as source tagging, shipping labels and pallet tags with embedded electronic memory chips that can be reprogrammed via low-power radio signals. Intermec has

3



also developed a complete range of products based on its RFID technology, comprising labels, printers, and scanners. A prominent industry organization serving the automotive sector recently approved a new standard for RFID that is based upon certain of the Company's communications protocols for RFID. These standards manage communications between a host computer and an RFID tag. This new standard is expected to be used in systems that will allow tire manufacturers and auto companies to track individual tires as they are manufactured, distributed and installed on new cars and trucks manufactured in North America. Intermec plans to offer its new technology for integration with existing automatic identification and data capture solutions such as bar code, mobile computing and other enterprise-wide information systems.

5



growth in these businesses is expected to result from expansion of the Company's existing operations and customer base.

Automated Data Systems Segment

In the ADS market, the integration of Internet e-commerce and real-time information driven by the increasing demand for more efficient and effective fulfillment systems has created increased opportunities and demand for technologies that improve levels of service and responsiveness.

Warehouses and logistics operations already rely on wireless networks and handheld and mobile computers to transmit inventory data to central host computers. When information is updated real time, customers have greater visibility to their current business operations, avoiding inventory shortages and improving customer service by providing more accurate shipping and delivery information. As competition places more pressure on customers for faster operational performance, they typically upgrade their supply chain "execution" technologies to improve financial measures such as inventory and asset turnover, and customer satisfaction standards, such as delivery speed, in-stock availability and order accuracy.

The Company plans to emphasize its product development and market activities in the areas of wireless communications, mobile computers and technologies for supply-chain execution to capitalize on expected strong demand and long-term overall market growth.

Industrial Automation Systems

For the IAS businesses, the Company plans to continue developing its existing customer base by seeking a greater role in customer projects by continuing its emphasis on product development and by expanding its international activities. The ongoing development of the Company's systems and solutions activities will depend primarily on the application of new technologies and products to maintain its position in this technology-driven market. The Company believes it has the necessary technical expertise to achieve this goal.

In recent years, cost-cutting and quality requirements in the automotive industry have strengthened the Company's relationships with its customers. Carmakers have expressed a long-term strategy of consolidating their supplier base, favoring those companies that demonstrate superior engineering expertise, global integration, and the ability to manage large-scale projects. These market-driven changes also have forced many smaller competitors to withdraw from the market or to reduce their participation. The Company has made a number of organizational changes and believes those actions have positioned it to take advantage of these trends. Further, major automakers have announced plans to outsource the production of engine and transmission components to third-party suppliers. These third-party part suppliers, representing new customers to IAS, are most interested in machining and assembly systems that have a great deal of flexibility. In the last four years, the Company has developed significant engineering competencies in the design of "flexible systems" and believes it is well positioned to supply the machining and assembly equipment needs of these new third-party part suppliers.

Markets and Customers

Automated Data Systems Segment

Because automated data systems represent technologies that can be utilized by a company of any size, including small systems that can be installed at very low cost, the market is extensive. Market growth is driven by the global need for technologies and solutions that improve quality, productivity, and cost-efficiency in business and government, particularly through logistics automation, supply chain execution, ERP and e-commerce solutions. Worldwide coverage is accomplished through a dedicated sales and

6



service organization in conjunction with resellers and independent software vendors, indirect channel partners and distributors.

Through its application of technologies in the manufacturing, warehouse-distribution, transportation, retail (including direct store and destination delivery), health care, government, field service and utilities markets, ADS maintains a strong position in the global AIDC (Automated Information and Data Collection) market.

ADS sells and services its products through multiple sales and distribution channels: a direct field sales force that concentrates on large or complex systems sales, premier value-added resellers that offer applications-specific solutions, and alliances with major systems integrators and distributors. ADS' direct sales organization serves customers from offices throughout the Americas and Europe and in some selected countries outside these regions. Indirect sales channels include long-time exclusive and non-exclusive relationships with value-added distributors and master resellers.

Although the majority of ADS sales are made through indirect sales channels, no individual value-added distributor or reseller is material to the Company's consolidated revenues. ADS also maintains contact with customers and prospective users by having established user forums for automated data systems applications and technologies.

The mobile computing systems market comprises several applications, such as route accounting for the distribution and package/parcel delivery industries, sales merchandising, remote delivery and field service. These applications are generally used in the consumer products, food, beverage, wholesale, parcel delivery, freight, field service, and home service industries.

Manufacturing applications include the collection and communication of information related to receipt of materials, work in process, finished goods inventory and other functions throughout the manufacturing process. Warehousing and distribution center applications involve the collection and communication of information related to receiving materials to be stored, storage locations, materials retrieval and shipping. Retail applications include the automation of shelf label maintenance and product shipping and receiving functions.

Additional international sales opportunities exist in countries where mobile computing practices and other applications are similar to those in the U.S. The extent of wireless systems opportunities in any particular country is based on the level of industrialization, the status of bar coding implementation, and the wireless regulatory environment for wireless communication technologies. The major markets for printers are manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, transportation, health care, government, and other services.

Industrial Automation Systems

The Company participates in the automotive, aerospace and general manufacturing markets. Investments by automotive customers are driven by model changes, competitive pressures, government regulations such as emission and fuel efficiency standards, and by the customers' own internal spending cycles. Investments by aerospace customers are primarily driven by commercial and defense aircraft new product development programs. Investments in diesel engine manufacturing are influenced by the infrastructure needs of emerging industrial nations and by the efficiency benefits diesel engines offer for heavy and light trucks and utility vehicles. The automotive, aerospace and general machine tool markets tend to be cyclical and dependent on manufacturing capacity utilization rates.

Customers for the Company's Integrated Production Systems products are the major auto and diesel manufacturers and their Tier One suppliers. Although the passenger car and light truck industries continue

7



to represent this division's largest market, business from diesel engine manufacturers has grown in recent years.

The Company believes that future growth in the IPS and AME segments will be dependent on their ability to market their full range of products and services to their combined customer base and to expand into other industrial manufacturing markets. This strategy is supported by the Company's global management structure that provides for unified marketing and product support of each primary business on a global basis.

A substantial part of the IPS segment's total revenue is currently generated by worldwide automotive and diesel engine industry purchases of automated manufacturing systems, including integrated machining, body welding and assembly and precision grinding systems. U.S. and Canadian auto and auto-related manufacturers currently account for the majority of IPS sales. The remainder of sales represents products manufactured and sold in Europe and those exported from the Company's production facilities, mostly for installation in Latin America and Asia.

Both IAS segments' revenues are influenced by the capital investment plans of customers. These plans are typically strategic and long-range, driven by customers' competitive product issues as well as environmental issues related to compliance with emissions. Typically, short-term business cycles, such as monthly product sales, do not permanently interrupt capital investment decisions of major automotive customers. However, periods of economic uncertainty such as the current environment in North America can cause customer decision-makers to slow the pace of capital equipment orders as they assess their strategic direction.

Recent major customers include U.S.-based Boeing Corporation, Briggs & Stratton, Caterpillar, Cummins, DaimlerChrysler, Department of the Navy, Ford, General Motors, Navistar, Northrop Grumman, Parker Hannifin, and Raytheon; and Western Europe-based Airbus Espana, Alenia Aerospasio, Bombardier Shorts Brothers, BMW, British Aerospace, DaimlerChrysler, Fiat, Ford/Jaguar, Peugeot, Renault, Volkswagen, Volvo and the European subsidiaries of the large U.S. manufacturers. The Company has also won major equipment contracts for the "transplant" manufacturing facilities of foreign automakers, including both European and Japanese, and also serves the automotive components manufacturing market.

Competition

Strong competition exists in both the domestic and international markets for the Company's products and services. Products are sold and projects are won in the marketplace based on delivery, price, technology, productivity, reliability and service. International competition is also impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Automated Data Systems Segment

The market for AIDC/mobile computing systems is highly fragmented. Based on independent market surveys, management believes that Intermec is one of the largest participants measured by revenues. The other major participant is Symbol Technologies, which acquired Telxon in 2000. Intermec also faces strong competition for single product lines from specialized suppliers, like Zebra, for printers.

The market for mobile computing and RF products is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Some firms, including Fujitsu and Casio, manufacture and market hand-held systems for route accounting applications. In addition, a number of firms manufacture and market radio-linked data communication products, including LXE, Symbol and Teklogix. Consumer personal digital assistants (PDAs) from suppliers such as Palm, Handspring, Compaq and Hewlett Packard are potential competitors for certain low-end, light-duty enterprise computing applications. Companies such as Cisco and Lucent Technologies compete

8



in the wireless network business. On the printer side, Intermec faces competition from Zebra, Datamax and many others, depending on the geographic area.

Intermec competes primarily on the basis of its technology: integrated solutions, open-systems architecture, networking and communications expertise, and applications software. Other attributes, such as level of sales and support services, and product functionality, performance, ruggedness and overall quality, are important for market success.

Industrial Automation Systems

While product quality and innovation are key competitive factors to win market share, pricing is a major decision point in the global market for Integrated Productions Systems and Advanced Manufacturing Equipment. IAS' strength is its ability to design reliable and efficient manufacturing processes and combine them with cost-effective machining solutions for customers in order to win orders amid strong competition.

The North American and European market for high-volume production systems for engines and transmissions is divided among several major competitors and numerous smaller participants. Major competitors are Ingersoll Milling (North America), Thyssen, Heller, Grob-Werke and Ex-Cello (each from Germany) and NTC (Japan).

In the body welding and assembly systems market, the Company is faced with competitors that are involved in a broad range of assembly equipment and other competitors that provide "niche" machines. Primary competitors include PICO (Comau), Valiant, and Utica in North America; Thyssen, FFT, Kuka, and Comau in Europe.

In the worldwide market for high-precision grinding of engine parts, the Company has achieved a strong market position through innovative products that improve customer efficiency while reducing their capital costs. Major competitors are the foreign companies Koyo and Toyoda in Japan; the Schleifring Group and Junker in Germany; and Giustina in Italy.

In each of its different product markets, Advanced Manufacturing Equipment faces separate competitors such as Ingersoll Milling (North America), Henry Line (Canada) and Forrest Line (France) in aerospace systems, Makino and Mazak (both Japan) in horizontal systems, and Fadal/Thyssen (North America), Haas (North America), Okuma (Japan) and Mori Seiki (Japan) in the market for lower-end vertical machining and turning centers or "value" machines.

Research and Development

Company-wide expenditures on research and development activities amounted to $66.3 million, $69.7 million and $74.1 million, substantially all of which was sponsored by the Company, in the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Patents and Trademarks

Over a period of years, the Company has secured a large number of patents, trademarks and copyrights relating to its manufactured products. These patents, trademarks and copyrights have been of value in the growth of the Company's business and may continue to be of value in the future. However, the Company's business generally is not dependent upon the protection of any patent, patent application or patent license agreement, or group thereof, and would not be materially affected by the expiration thereof.

Seasonality; Backlog

Sales backlog was $386 million, $581 million and $856 million at December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The operations of the Company are not seasonal to any appreciable degree. The majority of the Company's backlog is concentrated in the IAS segments. The ADS market typically operates without a significant backlog of firm orders and does not consider backlog to be a relevant measure of future sales.

Employees

At December 31, 2001, the Company had 6,709 full-time employees, of which 2,801 are engaged in the ADS segment, 2,684 in the IPS segment, 1,174 in the AME segment, and 50 in corporate and shared services.

Environmental and Regulatory Matters

During 2002, the amounts incurred to comply with federal, state and local legislation pertaining to environmental standards did not have a material effect upon the capital expenditures or earnings of the Company.

Radio emissions are the subject of governmental regulation in all countries in which the Company currently conducts business. In North America, both the Canadian and U.S. governments publish relevant regulations, and changes to these regulations are made only after public discussion. In some countries regulatory changes can be introduced with little or no grace period for implementing the specified changes. Furthermore, there is little consistency among the regulations of various countries outside North America, and future regulatory changes in North America are possible. These conditions introduce uncertainty into the product planning process and could have an adverse effect on the AIDC/Mobile Computing business.

Raw Materials

The Company uses a wide variety of raw materials in the manufacture of its products and obtains such raw materials from a variety of suppliers. In general, raw materials used are available from numerous alternative sources. As is customary for its industry, the Company's ADS segment at various times enters into certain single-source component part supply agreements. Management believes these agreements will be renewed in the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Year Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to 2000

Sales and Service Revenues and Segment Operating Profit (Loss)

Total sales and service revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001 were $1,528.6 million, a decrease of $309.2 million, or 17%, compared with the prior year. Before goodwill impairment, special charges and other income, the Company reported total segment operating profit of $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to total segment operating loss of $50.1 million for the prior year.

Results for 2000 include the ADS segment's Amtech transportation systems operations ("Amtech") which were sold in June 2000.

Automated Data Systems:    ADS segment revenues were $655.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared with $725.3 million for the prior year, which included Amtech revenues of $41.4 million. Excluding Amtech, ADS revenues decreased 4% from the prior year. The decrease is due to weakness in the ADS segment's markets with 84% of the decline attributable to North America. By product line, the largest percentage decrease occurred for printer & media products, followed by systems & solutions products, and service. During the second quarter 2001, the Company settled a dispute with Compaq

13



Computer Corporation regarding the Company's battery power-management patents. Accordingly, ADS revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001 include significant royalty income. The specific terms of the settlement are confidential.

The ADS segment reported an operating loss of $14.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, before goodwill impairment and special charges, compared to an operating loss of $87.8 million for the prior year. The operating loss for 2001 includes fourth quarter severance charges of $8.0 million related to a reduction in Intermec's global workforce. The improvement in operating profit reflects significant reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses and higher product and service gross margin percentages, offset partially by the impact on operating profit due to the lower revenue level. Compared to 2000, product and service gross margins have improved by approximately two percentage points largely as a result of efficiencies within the service organization. The 2001 results reflect significant gross margin contributed by royalties.

During 2001, the ADS segment recorded a third quarter charge for non-cash goodwill and other long-lived asset impairments of $230.6 million and a fourth quarter charge for the closure of a facility of $7.4 million. See discussion under the heading "Goodwill Impairment and Special Charges" below.

Integrated Production Systems:    IPS segment revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001 were $668.1 million, a decrease of $187.1 million, or 22% from the prior year. The revenue decline reflects a global decline in capital spending primarily by the North American automotive industry. Despite the revenue declines, operating profit as a percentage of sales increased to 7.5% for the year ended December 31, 2001, compared to 5.2% for the prior year. In general, this improvement reflects better overall contract margins and an improved balance of business between the segment's U.S. and U.K. grinding operations. High installation and integration costs in 2000 for the IPS U.S. operations were substantially reduced in 2001 resulting in higher operating margins for IPS core U.S. operations. However, the benefit was offset by losses incurred by other non-core U.S. operations. These non-core operations were closed in 2001. IPS operating profit for 2001 also reflects significant improvement at its European operations driven by higher sales volume for the U.K. grinding operations and substantially reduced losses for its German subsidiary. IPS operating profit for 2001 includes inventory and accounts receivable write-downs of $7.0 million relating to closed operations and fourth quarter severance charges of $6.5 million related to the reduction in its North American workforce.

Revenue declines have necessitated cost reduction actions. During 2001, the IPS segment closed three underperforming operations and one underutilized facility. These actions resulted in aggregate charges of $44.8 million, including $31.0 million of impaired goodwill. See discussion under the heading "Goodwill Impairment and Special Charges" below.

Integrated Production Systems backlog decreased from $448.0 million at December 31, 2000 to $276.2 million at December 31, 2001. This 38% decline in backlog is driven largely by major weakness in capital spending by the North American automotive and related customers. The Company does not expect these conditions to improve in the near term, indicating projected lower IPS revenue performance for 2002.

Advanced Manufacturing Equipment:    AME revenues decreased $51.9 million, or 20%, to $205.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. The decrease in revenues reflects continued weakness in the domestic aerospace-related and general machine tool markets. Before goodwill impairment and special charges, the segment reported an operating loss of $22.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to an operating loss of $6.7 million for the prior year. The operating losses for 2001 and 2000 include fourth quarter severance charges of $10.1 million and $4.8 million, respectively, related to reductions in the segment's U.S. workforce. AME revenues continue a trend of decline. Weak domestic

14



machine tool markets, particularly the aerospace related component, were further impacted by the declining national economy. Revenue declines and the related reduction in contributed gross margin have resulted in increased operating losses in 2001. Backlog decreased to $57.7 million at December 31, 2001 from $66.9 million at December 31, 2000.

During the third quarter 2001, the AME segment recorded non-cash goodwill and other long-lived assets impairments of $25.4 million. During the fourth quarter 2001, the segment recorded charges of $8.7 million to exit certain of its vertically integrated manufacturing activities and consolidate facilities. These amounts are reported as goodwill impairment and special charges. See discussion under the heading "Goodwill Impairment and Special Charges" below.

The Company does not expect near-term improvement in the AME revenue trend, resulting in projected lower revenues for 2002.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of sales and service decreased $308.6 million to $1,118.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $1,426.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. Cost of sales and service as a percentage of sales improved to 73.1% for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to 77.6% for the prior year. The decrease in cost of sales reflects the lower sales volume in 2001 and improved gross margins for both the ADS and IPS segments.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense decreased $56.4 million to $373.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $430.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The 2001 reductions in SG&A are principally the result of lower Intermec spending.

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $10.1 million to $57.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $67.3 million for the prior year reflects the impact of lower capital expenditures and the write-off of goodwill and long-lived assets in 2001.

Net interest expense was $29.9 million and $30.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decrease was attributable to lower outstanding debt during the year, partially offset by the effect of higher interest rates on the Company's outstanding borrowings.

Goodwill Impairment and Special Charges

Goodwill and Long-Lived Asset Impairment.    In the third quarter 2001, growing evidence of a recessionary environment, intensified by the September 11 attacks, caused the Company to have a less favorable revenue outlook. Accordingly, the Company assessed whether these effects resulted in impairment of its goodwill and long-lived assets to be held and used. Due primarily to this poor market outlook and uncertainty as to its impact on the Company's results, the Company recorded non-cash charges to write off remaining goodwill associated with its ADS and AME segments of $222.0 million and $15.6 million, respectively. Additional non-cash charges of $8.6 million and $9.8 million were recorded to reduce the book value of ADS and AME property, plant and equipment, respectively, to their estimated fair values. The estimated fair value of these long-lived assets, including goodwill, was computed based on discounted expected future cash flows from the related operations.

Facilities Closures and Consolidations.    Throughout 2001, the Company undertook a series of actions to close underutilized or underperforming operations and facilities. In connection with these actions, related goodwill and long-lived assets were tested for impairment on a to-be-disposed-of basis. The fair value of long-lived assets to be disposed of was estimated based on the current market value of similar assets. These

15



actions resulted in charges for severance, plant closure costs, and impairment of long-lived assets as follows.

During the second quarter 2001, the IPS segment initiated closure of substantially all of its R&B Machine Tool Company and MM&E Inc. facilities. Certain remaining manufacturing activities were consolidated into other IPS units. This action, which was substantially complete at December 31, 2001, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 217 employees totaling $3.0 million and other plant closure costs of $1.6 million. The related review of goodwill and long-lived assets for impairment resulted in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $31.0 million. The estimated fair value of goodwill was computed based on discounted expected future cash flows from remaining operations.

During the third quarter of 2001, the IPS segment initiated closure of its underutilized Hebron Kentucky facility. This action, which was substantially complete as of December 31, 2001, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 88 employees totaling $1.2 million and other plant closure costs of $0.4 million.

During the fourth quarter 2001, the IPS segment initiated closure of its Modern Prototype operations. This action, which was substantially complete at December 31, 2001, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 39 employees totaling $0.9 million and other plant closure costs of $2.4 million. The related review of long-lived assets to be disposed of for impairment resulted in property, plant and equipment impairment charges of $4.3 million.

During the fourth quarter 2001, the AME segment initiated a plan to reduce vertical integration in its manufacturing processes and consolidate plant facilities. The plan includes outsourcing of certain manufacturing activities, termination of employees, and the disposition of plant and equipment by a combination of sale and abandonment. This action, which is expected to be substantially complete by December 31, 2002, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 75 employees totaling $1.5 million and other plant closure costs of $1.8 million. As of December 31, 2001, amounts paid and charged against these accruals were not material. The related review of long-lived assets to be disposed of for impairment resulted in plant and equipment impairment charges of $5.5 million.

During the fourth quarter 2001, the ADS segment initiated a plan to eliminate certain engineering activities, terminate related employees and close a leased facility. This action, which is expected to be complete by December 31, 2002, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 42 employees totaling $1.5 million and lease termination and other closure costs of $5.9 million. As of December 31, 2001, amounts paid and charged against these accruals were not material.

Other Income

Other income for the year ended December 31, 2001 represents the second quarter gain of $75.1 million related to the reversion of surplus pension plan assets (see discussion under the heading "Liquidity and Capital Resources"). Other income for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $44.7 million represents the gain from the sale of the ADS segment's Amtech transportation systems operations.

Income Taxes

Income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2001 reflects the impact of nondeductible goodwill impairment and nondeductible excise taxes on the reversion of surplus pension plan assets.

Year Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to 1999

Sales and Service Revenues and Segment Operating Profit (Loss)

Total sales and service revenues for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $1,837.8 million, a decrease of $270.9 million, or 13%, compared with the prior year. The Company reported total segment operating loss of $50.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to total segment operating profit of $118.9 million for the prior year.

Automated Data Systems:    ADS segment sales decreased $151.9 million, or 17%, for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared with the prior year. The decrease in revenue reflects the sale of the segment's Amtech operations in June 2000 and lower sales volume for the Company's Intermec subsidiary. Average quarterly revenue for Amtech was $20 million. The Intermec sales decline was caused primarily by weakness in the Direct Store Delivery (DSD) market and sales force disruption as the Company's Intermec subsidiary shifted from a geographic sales orientation to a named-account/vertical marketing structure. As a result, Intermec did not participate in the industry's overall market growth.

The ADS segment reported an operating loss of $87.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to operating profit of $26.4 million for the prior year. The significant operating losses during 2000 were due primarily to lower Intermec gross profits that were insufficient to absorb selling, general and administrative expenses. Intermec gross profits were impacted by lower sales volume and by a shift in the product mix in 2000 to products with lower margins. In addition, actions taken by Intermec for workforce reductions, consolidation of manufacturing facilities and sales and field service offices, and product rationalization resulted in fourth quarter adjustments of $22.1 million.

Integrated Production Systems:    IPS segment revenues for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $855.2 million, a decrease of $81.3 million, or 9% from the prior year. The revenue decline is primarily due to the impact of lower capital spending by domestic automakers and to a lesser extent the impact of currency translation of foreign sales. Related operating profit decreased $42.4 million, or 49%, for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared with the prior year. The IPS operating profit decline was attributed to higher installation and integration costs later in 2000 for the segment's machining systems operations and foreign losses incurred during the first half of 2000 due to unabsorbed costs. Integrated Production Systems backlog decreased from $627.7 million at December 31, 1999 to $448.0 million at December 31, 2000. Backlog at the end of 1999 was at a record high level and included significant multi-year contracts, whereas backlog at December 31, 2000 comprised nearer-term deliveries and reflects the slowing of automotive markets.

Advanced Manufacturing Equipment:    AME revenues decreased $37.7 million, or 13%, to $257.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The decrease in revenues reflected continued weakness in the domestic aerospace-related general machine tool market. The segment reported an operating loss of $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to operating profit of $5.7 million for the prior year. The loss for 2000 was due primarily to lower domestic sales and backlog levels and the corresponding impact on margins due to unabsorbed fixed costs. In addition, AME recorded $4.8 million in employee severance related expenses in the fourth quarter of 2000. Backlog decreased from $102.5 million at December 31, 1999 to $66.9 million at December 31, 2000.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of sales and service decreased $74.7 million to $1,426.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 from $1,501.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased to 77.6% for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to 71.2% for the prior year. The

17



increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales was due to the above-mentioned factors contributing to fluctuations in segment operating profit (loss), primarily underabsorbed manufacturing overhead, lower sales volume and fourth quarter 2000 adjustments.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense decreased $24.2 million from $454.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 to $430.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, due to lower selling expenses, primarily at Intermec, offset partially by additional costs for accounts receivable securitization. The Company's accounts receivable securitization agreements were in place for the full year in 2000 compared to six months in 1999. Lower revenue levels resulted in SG&A, as a percentage of sales, increasing from 21.6% in 1999 to 23.4% in 2000.

Depreciation and amortization of $67.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 is consistent with $66.0 million for the prior year, due to no significant net changes in the Company's fixed assets, goodwill and intangible assets.

Net interest expense was $30.6 million and $38.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The decrease was attributable to lower outstanding debt during the year, partially offset by the effect of increased interest rates.

Other Income

Other income of $44.7 million represents a one-time gain from the sale of Amtech in June 2000. The Company acquired Amtech in June 1998. The net assets and results of operations for Amtech are not material to the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company is subject to the effects of international currency fluctuations due to the global nature of its operations. Currency transaction net losses of $2.8 million, $0.0 million and $3.0 million are included in cost of sales and service for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999. It is not possible to predict the Company's exposure to foreign currency fluctuations beyond the near term because revenues generated from particular foreign jurisdictions vary widely over time.

For fiscal year 2001, the Company derived approximately 32% of its revenues from non-U.S. customers. At December 31, 2001, long-lived assets attributable to foreign countries comprised 15% of total assets. As the largest components of these foreign assets are attributable to European nations, primarily the United Kingdom, Germany, and Sweden, the exposure of long-lived assets to foreign currency fluctuations or expropriations is not significant.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents decreased from $106.8 million at December 31, 2000 to $103.7 million at December 31, 2001. Total debt decreased from $448.9 million at December 31, 2000 to $281.5 million at December 31, 2001. Net debt, defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, was reduced to $177.8 million at December 31, 2001 from $342.1 million at December 31, 2000. The $164.3 million decrease in net debt reflects $122.0 million of cash received from the reversion of surplus pension plan assets and $132.8 million of cash flow generated from normal operations, offset by cash used of $90.5 million to terminate the Company's account receivable securitization agreements.

On July 12, 2001, the Company entered into two secured long-term credit facilities with aggregate committed capacity of up to $275 million: a $200 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") and a $75 million secured term loan (the "Term Loan"). In conjunction with the new

18



facilities, the Company refinanced and terminated its $400 million secured credit facility and related agreements.

The Revolving Facility is maintained with a syndicate of lenders and matures on July 11, 2004. Borrowing availability is subject to a Borrowing Base calculation, as defined in the agreement, based on eligible levels of accounts receivable and inventory. The Revolving Facility is secured by a junior lien on the real estate, machinery and equipment of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries and a senior lien on substantially all of the other assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations on liens contained in the indenture governing the Company's outstanding senior notes in the principal amount of $200 million. The Company may borrow at the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate, each as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin. The Revolving Facility places restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries, including limits on capital expenditures, liens, investments, sale or pledge of assets, prepayment of debt, sale and leaseback transactions, dividend payments, and incurrence of debt or guarantees. Financial covenants include minimum levels of domestic EBITDA, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and Tangible Net Worth, each as defined in the agreement.

On March 1, 2002, the financial covenants of the Revolving Facility and Term Loan were amended. Effective for the year 2002, the amendments remove the Fixed Charge Coverage test and add a Free Cash Flow test, as defined in the amendments. The Free Cash Flow test is only applicable if average Availability on the Revolving Facility is less than $50.0 million and outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Facility exceed $10.0 million. Provisions were added, applicable for the remaining term of the Revolving Facility, to maintain Minimum Availability of $30.0 million and remove the Minimum Domestic EBITDA test. Based on projected results of operations, management believes the Company will be in compliance with the financial covenants of its Revolving Facility and Term Loan.

The Term Loan was obtained from a syndicate of lenders and is secured by a senior lien on the real estate, machinery and equipment of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries and a junior lien on substantially all of the other assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations on liens contained in the indenture governing the Company's outstanding senior notes in the principal amount of $200 million. Monthly interest payments are based on the LIBOR Rate plus an applicable margin, as defined in the agreement. The principal matures on July 11, 2004. Net proceeds from the sale of real estate, machinery and equipment of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries must be applied to the reduction of the Term Loan principal, subject to certain exceptions as defined in the agreement. Other restrictions and financial covenants, including the March 6, 2002 amendment, contained in the Term Loan are consistent with those in the Revolving Facility.

On September 13, 2001, certain of the Company's U.K. subsidiaries (collectively, the "Borrower") entered into a secured revolving credit facility and related secured overdraft facility (collectively, the "UK Facility"). The UK Facility matures on September 13, 2003 and may be extended in one-year increments at the discretion of the lender. The UK Facility has committed capacity of up to £15.0 million and is secured by substantially all the assets of the Borrower. Borrowing availability, as defined in the agreement, is based on property and eligible levels of accounts receivable. The Company may borrow at the LIBOR rate, as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin. The UK Facility places restrictions on the Borrower, including limits on liens, investments, sale or pledge of assets, dividend payments, and incurrence of debt or guarantees. Net proceeds from the sale of real estate, machinery and equipment of the Borrower must be applied to the reduction of any outstanding loan balance. The UK Facility includes cross default provisions to the financial covenants included in the Company's Revolving Facility.

As of December 31, 2001, $73.0 million was outstanding under the Term Loan at an annual interest rate of 13.00%, and no borrowings were outstanding under the Revolving Facility or the UK Facility. As of

19



December 31, 2001, the Company was in compliance with the financial convenants of each of these agreements.

In 2001, the Company completed a partial settlement of its U.S. defined benefit pension plan obligations through the purchase of nonparticipating annuity contracts. In connection with the settlement, surplus plan assets of $175.7 million reverted to the Company. After applicable excise and income taxes, the Company received net cash of $122.0 million and real estate with a fair value of $15.3 million. The settlement resulted in a pension reversion book gain of $114.0 million. After excise taxes, the pension reversion book gain was $75.1 million and is reported as other income in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company also reduced the related prepaid pension asset in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 88 "Employer's Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination of Benefits." This transaction will result in a significant change from the historical rate of pension income. The net impact for 2002 is expected to be an approximately $25.0 million reduction in pre-tax earnings.

For the period from June 30, 1999 to February 8, 2001, the Company sold interests in a revolving pool of its trade accounts receivable to a financial institution which issues short-term debt backed by receivables acquired in similar transactions. In connection with the Company's refinancing activities, on February 8, 2001, these arrangements were terminated and the Company repurchased the financial institution's interest in the pool of trade receivables for approximately $90.5 million in cash.

Management believes that cash and cash equivalents on hand combined with projected cash flow from operations will provide adequate funding to meet its expected working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. Projected cash flow from operations are largely based on the Company's revenue estimates, cost estimates, and the related timing of cash receipts and cash disbursements. If actual performance differs from estimated performance, cash flow from operations could be positively or negatively impacted. Additional sources of liquidity for the Company include the Revolving Credit Facility and the U.K. Facility. Net of outstanding letters of credit and limitations on Minimum Availability, the Company had borrowing capacity of $50.8 million under the Revolving Facility and £13.0 million under the U.K. Facility, each as of March 8, 2002.

In addition, the Company had aggregate off-balance-sheet guarantees and letter-of-credit reimbursement agreements of $30.0 million at December 31, 2001. These items relate to the Company's performance on operating contracts with customers and generally expire within one year.

20



Inflation

In the opinion of management, inflation has not been a significant factor in the markets in which the Company operates and has not had a significant impact upon the results of its operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations discusses the Company's consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes that the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.    The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Changes in the financial condition of the Company's customers could result in upward or downward adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Inventory Obsolescence.    The Company writes down its inventory to provide for estimated obsolete or unsalable inventory based on assumptions about future demand for its products and market conditions. If future demand and market conditions are less favorable than management's assumptions, inventory write-downs could be required. Likewise, favorable future demand and market conditions could positively impact future operating results if written-off inventory is sold.

Deferred Tax Assets.    The Company evaluates the likelihood of recovering its deferred tax assets and the adequacy of the related valuation allowance by estimating sources of taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Realization of the Company's deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company's ability to generate sufficient future taxable income.

Goodwill and Long-lived Assets.    The Company evaluates the recoverability of its goodwill and long-lived assets by comparing the carrying value of asset groups to their undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the carrying value exceeds undiscounted expected future cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value to estimated fair value. Fair value is estimated based on discounted expected future cash flows. If management's estimates of expected future cash flows decrease, additional impairment losses could be recorded.

Pensions and Postretirement Benefits.    Accounting for pensions and post-retirement benefits involves estimating the cost of benefits to be provided well into the future and attributing that cost over the time period each employee works. To accomplish this, assumptions about investment returns, discount rates, inflation, mortality, turnover and medical coverage costs are extensively used. Material differences between these assumptions and actual results could positively or negatively impact future results of operations.

Revenue Recognition.    The IPS and AME segments recognize a significant portion of revenue and related profit as work progresses on long-term contracts using the percentage-of-completion method. This method relies on estimates of total expected contract revenues and costs. The Company uses this method because reasonably dependable estimates can be made throughout the performance of the contracts. Since

21



financial reporting of these contracts depends on estimates, recognized revenues and profits are subject to increase or decrease as the contract progresses to completion.

Warranties.    The Company records a liability and expense for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. These estimates are based primarily on the Company's historical warranty experience rates. Should the actual cost of product warranties differ, warranty liabilities could be adjusted upward or downward.

Contingencies.    The Company assesses its exposure to loss contingencies including environmental, legal and income tax matters and provides for an exposure if it is judged to be probable and estimable. If the actual loss from a loss contingency differs from management's estimates, results of operations could be adjusted upward or downward.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141 discontinues the pooling-of-interests method for business combinations effective July 1, 2001 and establishes new criteria for distinguishing goodwill and other intangibles acquired. SFAS 142 provides guidance on post-acquisition accounting for goodwill and intangibles, including the discontinuance of goodwill amortization, in favor of periodic impairment testing. Goodwill amortization for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $10.9 million.

On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS 142 and ceased amortization of its goodwill balances. The Company has completed the transitional fair value based impairment test and determined that none of the recorded goodwill was impaired. Fair value was determined based on a discounted cash flow model. SFAS 142 also requires that intangible assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition apart from goodwill be reclassified. No reclassification to goodwill was required as of January 1, 2002.

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations", which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and associated asset retirement costs. The statement becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144), which supersedes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of". The adoption of this standard on January 1, 2002 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors

The Company cautions readers that included in this annual report are certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs as well as on assumptions made by and information currently available to management. They include, but are not limited to, statements about demand for the Company's products and services, market outlook, the Company's ability to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements, meet its revenue projections and realize the benefit of cost savings activities, to comply with the financial covenants of its

22



financing agreements, the impact of critical accounting policies and new accounting pronouncements, and the expected impact on pre-tax earnings resulting from reversion of surplus pension assets. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which could cause the Company's future results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company.

Such risk factors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the strength of the automotive and aerospace markets; technological changes and developments; the presence of competitors with greater financial and other resources; the availability and cost of materials and supplies including the renewal of key supply contracts; relations with the Company's employees; the Company's ability to manage its operating costs; worldwide political stability and economic conditions; regulatory uncertainties; and operating risks associated with international operations. Any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these factors, many of which are beyond the Company's ability to control or predict. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily from its short-term and long-term borrowings and to foreign exchange rate risk with respect to its foreign operations and from foreign currency transactions.

Interest Rates:    As of December 31, 2001, the Company's outstanding borrowings comprised $200.0 million in fixed rate debentures, a $73.0 million variable rate Term Loan, and an $8.5 million variable rate industrial revenue bond. In addition, the Company had variable rate facilities with no outstanding borrowings comprised of the Revolving Facility and the U.K. Facility. Net of outstanding letters of credit and limitations on Minimum Availability, the Company had borrowing capacity of $50.8 million under the Revolving Facility and £13.0 million under the U.K. Facility, each as of March 8, 2002. See discussion of the Company's credit facilities under the heading "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Item 7 of this annual report and in Note C to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The table below presents principal cash flows and interest rates by maturity dates and the fair values of the Company's borrowings as of December 31, 2001. Fair values for fixed rate borrowings have been determined based on recent market trade values. The fair values for variable rate borrowings approximate their carrying value. Variable interest rates disclosed represent the rates on the borrowing at December 31, 2001.

Interest Rate     13.00%     7.00%                  

Foreign Exchange Rates:    Due to its global operations, the Company's cash flow and earnings are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. When appropriate, the Company may attempt to limit its exposure to changing foreign exchange rates by entering into short-term foreign currency exchange contracts. As of December 31, 2001, the Company held short-term contracts for the purpose of hedging foreign currency cash flows with an aggregate notional amount of $161.8 million. The Company does not enter into any foreign currency contracts for speculative or trading purposes. Contracts that effectively meet risk reduction and correlation criteria are accounted for as hedges and, accordingly, gains and losses from mark-to-market adjustments are deferred in the cost basis of the underlying transaction. In those circumstances when it is not appropriate to account for contracts as hedges, gains and losses from mark-to-market adjustments are recorded currently in earnings. A hypothetical 10% change in the relevant currency rates at December 31, 2001 would not result in a material gain or loss. Additionally, any change in the value of the contracts, real or hypothetical, should be substantially offset by an inverse change in the value of the underlying hedged item.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Board of Directors and Shareholders
UNOVA, Inc.
Woodland Hills, California

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of UNOVA, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' investment, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in Item 14. These financial statements and financial schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and the financial statement schedule 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 examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of UNOVA, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth herein.

UNOVA, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note A: Significant Accounting Policies

General Information.    UNOVA, Inc. and subsidiaries ("UNOVA" or the "Company") became an independent public company on October 31, 1997, when all of the UNOVA common stock was distributed to holders of common stock of Western Atlas Inc. ("WAI") in the form of a dividend (the "Distribution"). Every WAI shareholder of record on October 24, 1997 was entitled to receive one share of UNOVA common stock for each WAI share of common stock held.

Nature of Operations.    UNOVA is a global supplier of mobile computing and wireless network products for non-office applications and for manufacturing systems technologies primarily for the automotive and aerospace industries. The Company has three reportable segments, Automated Data Systems ("ADS"), Integrated Production Systems ("IPS") and Advanced Manufacturing Equipment ("AME"). Segments are determined principally on the basis of their products and services. The ADS segment represents the Company's wholly owned subsidiary Intermec Technologies Corporation ("Intermec"), comprising mobile computing and wireless communication systems products and services, principally serving the industrial market. Customers are global distribution and transportation companies, food and beverage operations, manufacturing industries, health care providers and government agencies. The IPS segment includes Lamb Machining Systems division, Lamb Body & Assembly Systems division and Landis Grinding Systems division. The IPS segment includes integrated manufacturing systems, body welding and assembly systems, and precision grinding and abrasives operations, primarily serving the worldwide automotive, off-road vehicle, and diesel engine industries. The AME segment represents the Cincinnati Machine division, comprising machining systems and stand-alone machine tools primarily serving the aerospace and manufacturing industries. For evaluation purposes, the Company aggregates the IPS and AME reportable segments into the Industrial Automation Systems ("IAS") business.

Principles of Consolidation.    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of UNOVA, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries and companies in which UNOVA has a controlling interest. Investments in companies over which UNOVA has influence but not a controlling interest are accounted for using the equity method. Equity investments in other companies are carried at cost. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company has no significant unconsolidated subsidiaries.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements.    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for each reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents.    The Company considers highly liquid investments purchased within three months of their date of maturity to be cash equivalents.

Inventories.    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventoried costs include material, labor and manufacturing overhead. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred. The Company provides allowances for estimated obsolete or unsalable inventory based on assumptions about future demand for its products and market conditions.

Revenue Recognition.    Revenues are generally recognized when products are shipped or as services are performed. Estimated product warranty costs are accrued when revenue is recognized. Long-term contracts, principally within the IPS and AME segments, are accounted for under the percent-

F-7


age-of-completion, cost-to-cost method of accounting which requires the Company to estimate total expected contract revenues and costs and record revenues and profits over the term of the contract. The cumulative impact of changes in expected contract revenues and costs and any anticipated losses are charged to operations as soon as they are determinable.

Research and Development.    Research and development costs are charged to selling, general and administrative expense as incurred. Total expenditures on research and development activities amounted to $66.3 million, $69.7 million and $74.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment.    Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation, computed generally by the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes, is provided for over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

Income Taxes.    The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. This method also requires the recognition of future tax benefits such as net operating loss carryforwards and other tax credits. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The Company evaluates the likelihood of recovering its deferred tax assets by estimating sources of future taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies.

Concentrations of Credit Risk.    Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited because a large number of geographically diverse customers make up the Company's customer base, thus spreading the credit risk. The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of its customers and maintains an allowance for anticipated losses. No customer was significant to the Company's revenues in 2001, 2000 or 1999.

Foreign Currencies.    The currency effects of translating the financial statements of the Company's foreign entities that operate in local currency environments other than the U.S. dollar are included in the cumulative currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Currency transaction gains and losses are included in the consolidated statements of operations. Currency transaction net losses of $2.8 million, $0.0 million and $3.0 million are included in cost of sales and service for the years are ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.    On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133").

Due to its global operations, the Company's cash flows and earnings are exposed to foreign exchange rate risk resulting principally from the sale of certain of its inventory in U.S. dollars to its foreign subsidiaries and other external foreign sales. The Company's use of derivatives is limited to foreign currency exchange contracts entered into to limit this exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company enters into these contracts with major financial institutions to minimize its risk of credit loss. The Company's policies do not permit active trading of or speculation in derivative financial instruments. The Company's policy is to hedge major foreign currency cash flow exposures through foreign exchange forward contracts at amounts up to 100% of such cash flows. The Company designates certain of these

F-8


foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedging instruments under SFAS 133. Contracts that effectively meet risk reduction and correlation criteria are accounted for as hedges and, accordingly, gains and losses from mark-to-market adjustments are deferred in the cost basis of the underlying transaction. In those circumstances when it is not appropriate to account for contracts as hedges, gains and losses from mark-to-market adjustments are recorded currently in earnings.

The Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts with aggregate U.S. dollar notional amounts of $161.8 million and $75.8 million as of December 31, 2001 and January 1, 2001, respectively, with average durations of less than three months. The fair value of such contracts at both December 31, 2001 and January 1, 2001 was not material. The amount of hedge ineffectiveness for the year ended December 31, 2001 was not material.

Goodwill and Other Intangibles.    For each of the years presented, goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 25 to 40 years. Other intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 4 to 18 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill.    The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill when circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If undiscounted expected cash flows to be generated by a long-lived asset or asset group are less than its carrying amount, the Company records an impairment to write down the long-lived asset or asset group to its estimated fair value. Fair value is estimated based on discounted expected future cash flows.

Environmental Costs.    Provisions for environmental costs are recorded when the Company determines its responsibility for remedial efforts and such amounts are reasonably estimable. Environmental costs were not material for all years presented.

New Accounting Pronouncements.    In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141 discontinues the pooling-of-interests method for business combinations effective July 1, 2001 and establishes new criteria for distinguishing goodwill and other intangibles acquired. SFAS 142 provides guidance on post-acquisition accounting for goodwill and intangibles, including the discontinuance of goodwill amortization, in favor of periodic impairment testing. Goodwill amortization for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $10.9 million.

On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS 142 and ceased amortization of its goodwill balances. The Company has completed the transitional fair value based impairment test and determined that none of the recorded goodwill was impaired. Fair value was determined based on a discounted cash flow model. SFAS 142 also requires that intangible assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition apart from goodwill be reclassified. No reclassification to goodwill was required as of January 1, 2002.

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations", which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and associated asset retirement costs. The statement becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"), which supersedes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of". The adoption of this standard on January 1, 2002 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications.    Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Note B: Cash and Cash Equivalents, Debt and Interest

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $103.7 million and $106.8 million at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively, and consisted mainly of time deposits. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2001 and 2000 include $7.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of bank deposits required to be maintained in support of letters of credit and foreign exchange contracts.

2004   $ 73,000
2005     108,500
2008     100,000
   
    $ 281,500
   

On July 12, 2001, the Company entered into two secured long-term credit facilities with aggregate committed capacity of up to $275 million: a $200 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") and a $75 million secured term loan (the "Term Loan"). In conjunction with the new facilities, the Company refinanced and terminated its $400 million secured credit facility and related agreements.

The Revolving Facility, maintained with a syndicate of lenders, matures on July 11, 2004. Borrowing availability is subject to a Borrowing Base calculation, as defined in the agreement, based on eligible levels of accounts receivable and inventory. The Revolving Facility is secured by a junior lien on the real estate, machinery and equipment of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries and a senior lien on substantially all of the other assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations on liens contained in the indenture governing the Company's outstanding senior notes in the principal amount of $200 million. The Company may borrow at the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate, each as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin. The Revolving Facility places restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries, including limits on capital expenditures, liens, investments, sale or pledge of assets, prepayment of debt, sale and leaseback transactions, dividend payments, and incurrence of debt or guarantees. Financial covenants include minimum levels of domestic EBITDA, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and Tangible Net Worth, each as defined in the agreement.

F-10



On March 1, 2002, the financial covenants of the Revolving Facility and Term Loan were amended. Effective for the year 2002, the amendments remove the Fixed Charge Coverage test and add a Free Cash Flow test, as defined in the amendments. The Free Cash Flow test is only applicable if average Availability on the Revolving Facility is less than $50.0 million and outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Facility exceed $10.0 million. Provisions were added, applicable for the remaining term of the Revolving Facility, to maintain Minimum Availability of $30.0 million and remove the Minimum Domestic EBITDA test.

The Term Loan was obtained from a syndicate of lenders and is secured by a senior lien on the real estate, machinery and equipment of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries and a junior lien on substantially all of the other assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations on liens contained in the indenture governing the Company's outstanding senior notes in the principal amount of $200 million. Monthly interest payments are based on the LIBOR Rate plus an applicable margin, as defined in the agreement. The principal matures on July 11, 2004. Net proceeds from the sale of real estate, machinery and equipment of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries must be applied to the reduction of the Term Loan principal, subject to certain exceptions as defined in the agreement. Other restrictions and financial covenants, including the March 6, 2002 amendment, contained in the Term Loan are consistent with those in the Revolving Facility. Unitrin, Inc., a significant shareholder of the Company, has committed to and funded $30.7 million of the Term Loan (See Note J).

On September 13, 2001, certain of the Company's U.K. subsidiaries (collectively, the "Borrower") entered into a secured revolving credit facility and related secured overdraft facility (collectively, the "UK Facility"). The UK Facility matures on September 13, 2003 and may be extended in one-year increments at the discretion of the lender. The UK Facility has committed capacity of up to £15.0 million and is secured by substantially all the assets of the Borrower. Borrowing availability, as defined in the agreement, is based on property and eligible levels of accounts receivable. The Company may borrow at the LIBOR rate, as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin. The UK Facility places restrictions on the Borrower, including limits on liens, investments, sale or pledge of assets, dividend payments, and incurrence of debt or guarantees. Net proceeds from the sale of real estate, machinery and equipment of the Borrower must be applied to the reduction of any outstanding loan balance. The UK Facility includes cross default provisions to the financial covenants included in the Company's Revolving Facility.

As of December 31, 2001, $73 million was outstanding under the Term Loan at an annual interest rate of 13.00%, and no borrowings were outstanding under the Revolving Facility or the UK Facility.

For the period from June 30, 1999 to February 8, 2001, the Company sold interests in a revolving pool of its trade accounts receivable to a financial institution which issues short-term debt backed by receivables acquired in similar transactions. In connection with the Company's refinancing activities, on February 8, 2001, these arrangements were terminated and the Company repurchased the financial institution's interest in the pool of trade receivables for approximately $90.5 million in cash. At December 31, 2000, net proceeds of $90.5 million were reflected as a reduction of accounts receivable on the consolidated balance sheet. Costs associated with the accounts receivable securitization agreements are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, such costs were $0.9 million, $7.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

In March 1998, the Company sold $200.0 million principal amount of senior unsecured debt in an underwritten offering. The debt comprised $100.0 million of 6.875% seven-year notes, at a price of 99.867 and $100.0 million of 7.00% ten-year notes, at a price of 99.856. Interest payments are due semi-annually. Including underwriting fees, discounts and other issuance costs, the effective interest rates on the seven-year and ten-year notes are 7.125% and 7.175%, respectively.

The Company made interest payments of $32.0 million, $34.2 million, and $39.5 million in the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Capitalized interest costs for each year presented were not material.

At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company's fixed rate debentures had a carrying value of $200.0 million and estimated fair market value of $120.0 and $66.0 million, respectively, based on recent market trade values. The carrying values of the variable rate borrowings, including the Term Loan and industrial revenue bonds, approximate fair value because they bear interest at market rates currently available to the Company. Fair values of the Company's accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.

The Company also has off-balance-sheet guarantees and letter-of-credit reimbursement agreements primarily related to the Company's performance on contracts with customers totaling a maximum amount of $30.0 million at December 31, 2001. The Company believes it is not practicable to estimate fair values of these instruments and considers the risk of non-performance on the contracts to be remote.

Note E: Shareholders' Investment

Capital Stock

At December 31, 2001, there were authorized 250 million shares of common stock, par value $0.01, and 50 million shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01.

Shareholder Rights Plan

In September 1997, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Share Purchase Rights Plan (the "Plan") and, in accordance with such Plan, declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (the "Right") for each outstanding share of Company common stock, payable to shareholders of record on October 31, 1997. The Plan will cause substantial dilution to a party that attempts to acquire the Company in a manner or on terms not approved by the Board of Directors. Each Right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Preferred Stock at a price of seventy dollars. The Rights become exercisable if a person other than a person which presently holds more than 15 percent of the Company's common stock acquires 15 percent or more, or announces a tender offer for 15 percent or more, of the Company's outstanding common stock. If a person acquires 15 percent or more of the Company's outstanding common stock, each right will entitle the holder to purchase the Company's common stock having a market value of twice the exercise price of the Right. The Rights, which expire in September 2007, may be redeemed by UNOVA at a price of one cent per Right at any time prior to a person acquiring 15 percent or more of the outstanding common stock.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and issuable for the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using basic weighted average shares plus the dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock and outstanding stock options using the "treasury stock" method.

Shares used for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share were computed as follows for the years ended December 31:

 
  2001
  2000
  1999
Weighted average common shares — Basic   56,851,291   55,713,692   55,110,655
Dilutive effect of unvested restricted shares and stock options           8,863
   
 
 
Weighted average shares — Diluted   56,851,291   55,713,692   55,119,518
   
 
 

At December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, employees and directors held options to purchase 4,181,560, 7,104,020 and 5,524,700 shares, respectively, of Company common stock that were antidilutive to the diluted earnings (loss) per share computation. These options could become dilutive in future periods if the average market price of the Company's common stock exceeds the exercise price of the outstanding options and the Company reports net earnings. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, diluted weighted average shares exclude 433,326 and 166,963, respectively, of weighted average unvested restricted shares due to the Company reporting a net loss.

Stock Awards

The UNOVA, Inc. 2001, 1999 and 1997 Stock Incentive Plans (the "Stock Incentive Plans," collectively) provide for the grant of incentive awards to officers and other key employees. Incentive awards may be granted in the form of stock options, with or without related stock appreciation rights, or in the form of restricted stock. Under the Stock Incentive Plans, stock options may not be granted at an exercise price less than the market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The Stock Incentive Plans options generally vest in equal increments over five years and expire in ten years.

The Director Stock Option and Fee Plan (the "Director Plan") provides for the grant of stock options to the Company's non-employee directors. Under the Director Plan, stock options are granted annually at an exercise price equal to the market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The number of options granted annually to each director is fixed by the Director Plan. Such options become fully exercisable on the first anniversary of their grant.

As of December 31, 2001 there were 3,112,538 shares available for grant under the Company's stock award plans. The following table summarizes changes in options outstanding and exercisable under the Company's stock award plans:

The weighted-average fair values of stock options granted during 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $2.27, $2.37, and $6.33 per option, respectively. The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 4.75%, 5.74% and 5.88%; expected life of five years for each year; and expected volatility of 56.48%, 49.39% and 40.07%. There is no assurance that the assumptions used in determining the fair values of stock options will prove true in the future. The actual value of the options depends on several factors, including the actual market price of the common stock on the date of exercise. Changes in any of these factors as well as fluctuations in the market price of the Company's common stock will cause the actual value of these options to vary from the theoretical value indicated above.

In August 2001, the Company extended to its employees a tender offer to exchange on a four-for-one basis certain outstanding stock options granted during the period June 1, 1999 through May 31, 2000 for restricted shares of the Company's common stock. On the exchange date, October 8, 2001, options to purchase 1,271,500 shares were tendered by employees and canceled, and 317,884 shares of restricted stock were issued under the Company's Stock Incentive Plans. The restricted shares vest over a three year period, with one third of the restricted shares vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the exchange date. The tender offer resulted in variable accounting for all options subject to the offer until the options are cancelled, exercised or expired. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had outstanding 68,250 options that are subject to the variable method of accounting, which requires the Company to record compensation expense when the market value of the Company's common stock exceeds the exercise price of the option. There was no compensation expense related to these options because the exercise price of the options exceeded market value.

In 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company granted 438,577, 300,000 and 109,585 shares of restricted stock, respectively, under the provisions of the 1999 and 2001 Stock Incentive Plans. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the restricted stock was issued at a weighted average market value at grant date of $4.45, $7.91 and $12.84 per share, respectively. The restricted shares vest in three equal installments at each of the first three anniversaries from the date of grant. The unearned portion of these grants is being amortized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 deferred compensation was $2.2 million, $2.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, compensation expense was $1.8 million, $1.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

In December 2001, certain officers of the Company made voluntary elections to receive a specific percentage of their 2001 incentive bonus and 2002 base salary in the form of stock options in lieu of cash. Each officer will receive one option per dollar of cash compensation foregone. Options will be granted

F-16


with an exercise price equal to the market value on the date of grant, fully vested and have a term of five years. The Company expects to issue approximately 625,000 options during 2002 as a result of these elections.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In January 1998, UNOVA adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan under which the Company is authorized to sell up to five million shares of common stock to its eligible full-time employees. The purchase price of the stock is 85% of the lower of the market price on the first day or last day of the applicable offering period, which is normally six months in duration. In 2001, 2000 and 1999, employees purchased 865,609, 928,312 and 496,450 shares, respectively. The weighted-average fair value of purchase rights granted in 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $1.38 per share, $2.66 per share and $4.42 per share, respectively. The fair values of the stock purchase rights were determined using the following weighted-average assumptions in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively; risk-free interest rate of 4.58%, 6.06%, and 4.63%; expected life equal to the applicable offering periods for each year; and expected volatility of 56.48%, 49.39%, and 40.07%. As previously noted, the actual value of purchase rights may vary from the theoretical value determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Pro Forma Compensation Cost Disclosure

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", under which no compensation cost has been recognized at the grant of stock options. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined consistent with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", the Company's pro forma net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share for 2001, 2000, and 1999 would have been $(297.3) million and $(5.23), $(47.2) million and $(0.85), and $22.8 million and $0.41, respectively.

Note F: Goodwill Impairment, Special Charges and Other Income

Goodwill Impairment and Special Charges

Goodwill impairment and special charges is composed of the following by reportable segment (thousands of dollars):

 
  Year Ended
December 31, 2001

Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment:    
  ADS Segment   $230,626
  AME Segment   25,409
Facilities closures and consolidations:

  AME Segment 4th Quarter 2001   8,746
  ADS Segment 4th Quarter 2001   7,400
   
Goodwill impairment and special charges   $316,996
   

Goodwill and Long-Lived Asset Impairment.    In the third quarter 2001, growing evidence of a recessionary environment, intensified by the September 11 attacks, caused the Company to have a less favorable revenue outlook. Accordingly, the Company assessed whether these effects resulted in impairment of its goodwill and long-lived assets to be held and used. Due primarily to this poor market outlook and uncertainty as to its impact on the Company's results, the Company recorded non-cash charges to write off remaining goodwill associated with its ADS and AME segments of $222.0 million and $15.6 million, respectively. Additional non-cash charges of $8.6 million and $9.8 million were recorded to reduce the book value of ADS and AME property, plant and equipment, respectively, to their estimated fair values. The estimated fair value of these long-lived assets, including goodwill, was computed based on discounted expected future cash flows from the related operations.

Facilities Closures and Consolidations.    Throughout 2001, the Company undertook a series of actions to close underutilized or underperforming operations and facilities. In connection with these actions, related goodwill and long-lived assets were tested for impairment on a to-be-disposed-of basis. The fair value of long-lived assets to be disposed of was estimated based on the current market value of similar assets. These actions resulted in charges for severance, plant closure costs, and impairment of long-lived assets as follows.

F-18


During the second quarter 2001, the IPS segment initiated closure of substantially all of its R&B Machine Tool Company and MM&E Inc. facilities. Certain remaining manufacturing activities were consolidated into other IPS units. This action, which was substantially complete at December 31, 2001, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 217 employees totaling $3.0 million and other plant closure costs of $1.6 million. The related review of goodwill and long-lived assets for impairment resulted in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $31.0 million. The estimated fair value of goodwill was computed based on discounted expected future cash flows from remaining operations.

During the third quarter of 2001, the IPS segment initiated closure of its underutilized Hebron Kentucky facility. This action, which was substantially complete as of December 31, 2001, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 88 employees totaling $1.2 million and other plant closure costs of $0.4 million.

During the fourth quarter 2001, the IPS segment initiated closure of its Modern Prototype operations. This action, which was substantially complete at December 31, 2001, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 39 employees totaling $0.9 million and other plant closure costs of $2.4 million. The related review of long-lived assets to be disposed of for impairment resulted in property, plant and equipment impairment charges of $4.3 million.

During the fourth quarter 2001, the AME segment initiated a plan to reduce vertical integration in its manufacturing process and consolidate plant facilities. The plan includes outsourcing of certain manufacturing activities, termination of employees and the disposition of plant and equipment by a combination of sale and abandonment. This action, which is expected to be substantially complete by December 31, 2002, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 75 employees totaling $1.5 million and other plant closure costs of $1.8 million. As of December 31, 2001, amounts paid and charged against these accruals were not material. The related review of long-lived assets to be disposed of for impairment resulted in plant and equipment impairment charges of $5.5 million.

During the fourth quarter 2001, the ADS segment initiated a plan to eliminate certain engineering activities, terminate related employees and close a leased facility. This action, which is expected to be complete by December 31, 2002, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 42 employees totaling $1.5 million and lease termination and other closure costs of $5.9 million. As of December 31, 2001, amounts paid and charged against these accruals were not material.

Other Income

Reversion of Pension Plan Assets: In June of 2001, the Company completed a partial settlement of its U.S. defined pension plan obligations that resulted in a net pre-income tax book gain of $75.1 million. See Note H.

Gain on Sale of Business: In June 2000, the Company sold the ADS segment's Amtech transportation systems operations ("Amtech") and received cash proceeds of approximately $88.0 million. The gain from the sale of Amtech was $44.7 million. The net assets and results of operations of Amtech are not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Company has available at December 31, 2001 a net operating tax loss carryforward in the United States of approximately $116.5 million that expires in 2020.

The Company has foreign tax credit carryforwards of $4.5 million, general business credit carryforwards of $36.8 million and alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards of $2.8 million at December 31, 2001. The foreign tax credit carryforwards and general business credit carryforwards may offset future tax liabilities in the United States through 2006 and 2021, respectively. The alternative minimum tax credit carryforward, however, can be utilized over an indefinite period.

At December 31, 2001, the Company has foreign net operating tax loss carryforwards of $109.7 million. Valuation allowances of $21.8 million and $21.1 million, as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, have been provided for deferred income tax benefits related to the foreign loss carryforwards that may not be realized. Included in the valuation allowances as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 is $3.5 million related to acquired German net operating loss carryforwards; any tax benefits subsequently recognized for the acquired German net operating loss carryforwards will be allocated to goodwill.

The following is a reconciliation of income taxes at the U.S. statutory rate to the provision (benefit) for income taxes (thousands of dollars):

The Company made net tax payments of $6.1 million, $11.3 million and $13.7 million in the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

The Company has not provided income taxes on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that the Company intends to reinvest permanently outside the United States; the total amount of such earnings was approximately $93 million at December 31, 2001. If remitted, such earnings would not result in any material tax liability in the United States because of available net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits.

Note H: Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans

The Company has retirement and pension plans which cover most of its employees. Most of the Company's U.S. employees as well as the employees of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries are covered by contributory defined benefit plans, under which annual contributions are made to the extent such contributions are actuarially determined to adequately fund the plans. Retiree benefits are based on years of service and salary levels.

There are also defined contribution voluntary savings programs generally available for U.S. employees, which are intended to qualify under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. These plans are designed to enhance the retirement programs of participating employees. Under these plans, the Company matches up to 50% of a certain portion of participants' contributions.

The following table sets forth the change in benefit obligations and plan assets of the Company's pension plans and the amounts recognized in the Company's balance sheets (thousands of dollars).

In 2001, the Company completed a partial settlement of its U.S. defined benefit pension plan obligations through the purchase of nonparticipating annuity contracts. In connection with the settlement, surplus plan assets of $175.7 million reverted to the Company. After applicable excise and income taxes, the Company received net cash of $122.0 million and real estate with a fair value of $15.3 million. The settlement resulted in pension income of $114.0 million, and a net pre-income tax book gain of $75.1 million after excise taxes. The Company also reduced the related prepaid pension asset in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 88 "Employer's Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination of Benefits."

Actuarial assumptions used for the Company's U.S. defined benefit plans were as follows in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively: expected long-term rate of return on plan assets of 9.25% for each year; weighted-average discount rate used in determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation of 7.25%, 7.75%, and 7.50%; and rate of increase in future compensation levels of 4.50% for each year. Actuarial assumptions used for the Company's non-U.S. defined benefit plans, located in the U.K., for each of the years 2001, 2000 and 1999 were as follows: expected long-term rate of return on plan assets of 8.0%, 8.5%, and 8.5%; weighted-average discount rate used in determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation of 6.25%, 6.5% and 6.5%; and assumed rate of increase in future compensation levels of 3.5%, 4.0% and 4.0%, respectively. The Company has an additional defined benefit plan in Germany that covers retirees of an inactive subsidiary. There is no current participation in the plan and plan assets and benefit obligations are immaterial.

U.S. plan assets consist primarily of equity securities, U.S. government securities, and corporate bonds and at December 31, 2001 and 2000, include 31,475 shares of UNOVA common stock. Non-U.S. plan assets consist primarily of equity securities, U.K. government securities, and corporate bonds.

In 2001 and 2000, the Company offered voluntary early retirement to certain U.S. employees resulting in special termination benefits charges of $9.0 million and $4.9 million, respectively. A summary of the components of net periodic pension income for the Company's defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans is as follows (thousands of dollars):

Other Postretirement Benefits

In addition to pension benefits, certain of the Company's U.S. employees are covered by postretirement health care and life insurance benefit plans provided by UNOVA. These benefit plans are unfunded. The following table sets forth the change in benefit obligation of the Company's other postretirement benefits and amounts recognized in the Company's balance sheets (thousands of dollars).

 
  December 31,
 
 
  2001
  2000
 
Change in postretirement benefit obligations:              
  Benefit obligation at beginning of year   $ 50,213   $ 38,651  
  Service cost     715     932  
  Interest cost     3,821     2,859

  Accrued postretirement benefit obligation   $ (40,648 ) $ (35,911 )
   
 
 

A summary of the Company's net periodic postretirement benefit cost is as follows (thousands of dollars):

 
  Year Ended December 31,
 
  2001
  2000
  1999
Components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost:                  
  Service cost   $ 715   $ 932   $ 928
  Interest cost     3,821     2,859     2,785
  Recognized actuarial loss and transition obligation     571     143     318
  Special termination benefits     2,542     1,501      
   
 
 
  Net periodic postretirement benefit cost   $ 7,649   $ 5,435   $ 4,031
   
 
 

Actuarial assumptions used to measure the accumulated benefit obligation include a discount rate of 7.25%, 7.75%, and 7.50% at December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The assumed health care cost trend rate for fiscal year 2001 was 11% and is projected to decrease over 15 years to 6.00%, where it is expected to remain thereafter. The effect of a one-percentage-point increase or decrease in the assumed health care cost trend rate on the service cost and interest cost components of the net periodic postretirement benefit cost is not material. A one-percentage-point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate on the postretirement benefit obligation results in an increase of approximately $6.1 million, while a one-percentage point decrease results in a decrease of $5.1 million.

Note I: Litigation, Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is currently, and is from time to time, subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of the Company's General Counsel, the ultimate resolution of currently pending proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note J: Related Party Transactions

Included in other assets are amounts due from certain Company officers and other executives of $0.9 million and $1.4 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The Company leased executive offices that are located in a building that was owned by the UNOVA Master Trust, an entity which holds the assets of the Company's primary U.S. pension plans. In conjunction with the reversion of surplus pension plan assets in June 2001, ownership of the building was transferred to the Company and the lease agreement was terminated. Rental expense under the provisions of this lease for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $0.4 million, $1.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

Unitrin, Inc., a significant shareholder of the Company, owning approximately 22% of the Company's outstanding common shares, and various of its subsidiaries ("Unitrin") participates as a lender in the Term Loan. As of December 31, 2001, Unitrin had committed and funded $30.7 million of the $73.0 million outstanding under the Term Loan. Interest expense associated with amounts funded by Unitrin was $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 (See Note B).

Note K: Segment Reporting

The Company has three reportable segments, Automated Data Systems ("ADS"), Integrated Production Systems ("IPS") and Advanced Manufacturing Equipment ("AME"). Segments are determined principally on the basis of their products and services. The ADS segment comprises the Company's wholly owned subsidiary Intermec Technologies Corporation ("Intermec"). The IPS segment comprises the Lamb Machining Systems division, the Lamb Body & Assembly Systems division and the Landis Grinding Systems division. The AME segment comprises the Cincinnati Machine division. For evaluation purposes, the Company aggregates the IPS and AME reportable segments into the Industrial Automation Systems ("IAS") business. The Company uses operating profit or loss, which is computed by adding net interest expense to earnings or loss before taxes on income, to evaluate performance.

Corporate and other amounts include corporate operating costs and currency transaction gains and losses. Assets classified as corporate and other amounts consist of cash and cash equivalents, retained interest in securitized trade receivables (applicable for December 31, 2000 only), prepaid pension costs, deferred tax assets relating to net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and other corporate assets. Activities are primarily product sales oriented. Export sales are not material. Intrasegment transactions have been eliminated and there are no material intersegment transactions.

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and in order to induce the Lenders and the Agent to amend the Credit Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

        1.    Recitals.    The foregoing Recitals are accurate and are incorporated herein and made a part hereof.

        2.    Definitions.    Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms and phrases used in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

        "7.22    Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.

            (a)  The Parent and its Subsidiaries will maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than .90 to 1.00 for the six (6) month period ended December 31, 2001 measured as of December 31, 2001. If the Parent and its Subsidiaries fail to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than .90 to 1.00 for the six (6) month period ended December 31, 2001, or if Borrowers fail to deliver timely the annual Financial Statements for the period ended December 31, 2001, pursuant to Section 5.2(a), Borrowers shall immediately pay to Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Deficiency Fee of $375,000 concurrently with earlier of the date Borrowers deliver, or are obligated to deliver, the Financial Statements required pursuant to Section 5.2(a) to Co-Agents for the period ended December 31, 2001 (which fee will be refunded if the applicable Financial Statements when delivered to and approved by Co-Agents reflect a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than .90 to 1.00 for such period).

If the Financial Statements delivered by Borrowers pursuant to Section 5.2(a) to Agent for the period ended December 31, 2001, reflect a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (i) less than .75 to 1.00 measured for the six (6) month period ended as of December 31, 2001, or (ii) equal to or greater than .75 to 1.00 but less than .90 to 1.00 and Borrowers fail to maintain daily Availability of at least $25,000,000 for each day from December 31, 2001 through the date the Financial Statements for the period ending March 31, 2002 are delivered to Co-Agents, then in either such case under this Section 7.22(a)(i) or (a)(ii), an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred.

            (b)  The Parent and its Subsidiaries will maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of the end of the last fiscal quarter during each Fixed Charge Test Period that occurs from January 1, 2003 through June 30, 2004 of not less than the respective ratio set forth below (provided, however, that there shall be no requirement to maintain the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of the end of the last fiscal quarter during any Fixed Charge Test Period unless for any 30 consecutive, calendar day period that began or ended (or began and ended) during the last fiscal quarter within such Fixed Charge Test Period (i) average Availability was less than $50,000,000 and (ii) Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceeded $10,000,000):

SECOND AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT

        This SECOND AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is dated as of March 1, 2002 and entered into by and among UNOVA, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Parent"), UNOVA INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation, INTERMEC TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, a Washington corporation, R&B MACHINE TOOL COMPANY, a Michigan corporation, J.S. MCNAMARA COMPANY, a Michigan corporation, M M & E, INC., a Nevada corporation, INTERMEC IP CORP., a Delaware corporation, and UNOVA IP CORP., a Delaware corporation (each individually, a "Borrower," and collectively, the "Borrowers") and the Lenders listed on the signature pages hereof (collectively, the "Lenders").

        WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the Lenders, and Special Value Investment Management, LLC, as administrative and collateral agent for the Lenders (in its capacity as administrative and collateral agent, the "Agent") entered into that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of July 12, 2001, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Loan Agreement dated as of August 15, 2001 (said agreement, as so amended, being the "Loan Agreement"; capitalized terms used in this Amendment without definition shall have the meanings given such terms in the Loan Agreement);

        WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested certain amendments be made to the Loan Agreement; and

        WHEREAS, the Majority Lenders have consented to such request, all on the terms set forth herein;

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements set forth herein, the Borrowers and the Majority Lenders agree as follows:

        1.    AMENDMENTS TO LOAN AGREEMENT.    

        Subject to the terms set forth in this Amendment and in reliance on the representations and warranties of the Borrowers set forth in this Amendment, the Loan Agreement hereby is amended as follows:

        (a)  Section 3.1(c) of the Loan Agreement hereby is amended by deleting the reference to "Adjusted Applicable Prepayment Premium" set forth therein and substituting therefor "Applicable Prepayment Premium".

        (b)  Section 5.2(d) of the Loan Agreement hereby is amended by inserting the phrase "and Sections 7.31 and 7.32" immediately following the phrase "set forth in Sections 7.22 through 7.25" appearing in said Section.

        (c)  Section 7.22 of the Loan Agreement hereby is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

      "7.22    Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.

        (a)  The Parent and its Subsidiaries will maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio not less than .90 to 1.00 for the six (6) month period ended December 31, 2001. If the Parent and its Subsidiaries fail to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio not less than .90 to 1.00 for the six (6) month period ended December 31, 2001, or if Borrowers fail to deliver timely the annual Financial Statements for the period ended December 31, 2001, pursuant to Section 5.2(a), Borrowers shall immediately pay to Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Deficiency Fee of $375,000 concurrently with earlier of the date Borrowers deliver, or are obligated to deliver, the Financial Statements required pursuant to Section 5.2(a) to Agent for the period ended December 31, 2001 (which fee will be refunded if the applicable Financial Statements when delivered to and approved by

1


Agent reflect a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio not less than .90 to 1.00 for such period). If Borrowers timely deliver such Financial Statements and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio reflected therein is not less than .75 to 1.00 and Borrowers continuously maintain daily Availability of at least $25,000,000 from December 31, 2001 through the date the Financial Statements for the period ending March 31, 2002 are delivered to Agent, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of the failure of the Parent and its Subsidiaries to comply with the first sentence of this Section 7.22(a). If the Financial Statements delivered by Borrowers pursuant to Section 5.2(a) to Agent for the period ended December 31, 2001 reflect a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (i) less than .75 to 1.00 measured for the six (6) month period ended as of December 31, 2001 or (ii) equal to or greater than .75 to 1.00 but less than .90 to 1.00 and Borrowers fail to maintain daily Availability of not less than $25,000,000 for each day from December 31, 2001 through the date the Financial Statements for the period ending March 31, 2002 are delivered to Agent, then in either such case under this Section 7.22(a)(i) or (a)(ii), an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred.

        (b)  The Parent and its Subsidiaries will maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of the end of the last fiscal quarter during each Fixed Charge Test Period that occurs from January 1, 2003 through June 30, 2004 of not less than the respective ratio set forth below (provided, however, that there shall be no requirement to maintain the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of the end of the last fiscal quarter during any Fixed Charge Test Period unless for any 30 consecutive, calendar day period that began or ended (or began and ended) during the last fiscal quarter within such Fixed Charge Test Period (i) average Availability was less than $50,000,000 and (ii) Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceeded $10,000,000):

        (d)  Section 7.23 of the Loan Agreement hereby is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

      "7.23    Minimum EBITDA.    The Borrowers shall generate EBITDA of not less than $0 during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2001."

        (e)  Section 7.24 of the Loan Agreement hereby is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

      "7.24    Minimum Tangible Net Worth.    The Parent and its Subsidiaries will maintain Tangible Net Worth as of the end of each month during the periods set forth below of not less than the respective amount set forth below opposite each such period:

November 30, 2001 through December 31, 2001   $ 310,000,000  
January 31, 2002 through June 30, 2004     245,000,000 "

2


        (f)    Section 7.25 of the Loan Agreement hereby is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

      "7.25    Capital Expenditures.    Capital Expenditures of the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall not exceed the respective amount for the respective periods set forth below:

Calendar Year

  Maximum Capital Expenditures
2001   $ 20,000,000
2002     30,000,000
2003     35,000,000
2004     40,000,000

      The limitations on Capital Expenditures set forth above are cumulative limitations for the respective calendar year, measured quarterly. Capital Expenditures permitted hereunder and not used during any calendar year may be carried over into a subsequent calendar year in an amount of up to $10,000,000. For purposes of the foregoing calculation, proceeds of the sale of obsolete, fully depreciated or replaced Equipment and proceeds of casualty losses or condemnation proceedings affecting Equipment that are used by the Borrowers for the purpose of Capital Expenditures shall be deducted from the calculation of Capital Expenditures for this covenant."

      "7.31    Free Cash Flow.    The Parent and its Subsidiaries will maintain Free Cash Flow as of each date set forth below for the applicable Free Cash Flow Test Period ending on such date of an amount not less than (i.e., not more negative than) the respective amount set forth below opposite such date (provided, however, that there shall be no requirement to maintain Free Cash Flow as of any such date unless during any 30 consecutive, calendar day period that began or ended (or began and ended) during the fiscal quarter ended as of such date (i) average Availability was less than $50,000,000 and (ii) Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceeded $10,000,000):

PLAN DOCUMENT
RELATING TO ELECTION TO RECEIVE
EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS
IN LIEU OF CERTAIN CASH COMPENSATION
PAYABLE TO UNOVA OFFICERS
IN FISCAL YEAR 2002

The date of this Plan Document is December 21, 2001

UNOVA

Special Provisions Applicable to Certain
Compensation Payable to Certain Officers of
UNOVA in Fiscal Year 2002

UNOVA, Inc. is offering certain officers the opportunity to receive, in lieu of a portion of their cash compensation otherwise payable during UNOVA's 2002 fiscal year, options to purchase UNOVA common stock upon the terms and conditions described below.

Attached to this Plan Document is a Participant Overview which contains some examples of the features of this Plan as well as some additional data concerning UNOVA.

The following questions and answers are intended to describe the basic features of this special compensation arrangement.

Q. 1. For this purpose how is the term "cash compensation" defined?

        Your cash compensation eligible for this special arrangement is your weekly base compensation amount multiplied by 52 plus the amount of any bonus which may be awarded to you in connection with your services during the 2001 fiscal year and which will be payable in late February or early March of 2002. Special bonuses for the achievement of a particular one-time achievement, pay in lieu of vacation time, car allowances, hiring bonuses, and other similar amounts of an extraordinary nature will not be considered part of your cash compensation.

Q. 2. How much of my compensation may be received in the form of stock options?

        You may designate up to 50% of your cash compensation, in increments of 10%, to be satisfied through the grant of stock options. You will need to make separate designations with respect to base salary and with respect to any bonus which may be payable to you in fiscal 2002.

Q. 3. How many stock options will I receive for the amount of cash compensation I elect to forego?

        You will receive options to purchase UNOVA Common Stock based on the ratio of 1 option for each $1.00 of compensation which you forego. Thus if you forego $1,000 of compensation in 2002 you will receive options to purchase 1,000 shares of UNOVA Common Stock. If the computation of the number of option you receive results in an option involving a fractional share, such fraction will be rounded upward to the nearest full share.

Q. 4. What will be the exercise price of these options?

        The exercise price will be the fair market value of the UNOVA common stock on the date the options are granted to you, which is expected to be April 15, 2002. The fair market value is determined by taking the average of the high and low reported sales prices of the Common Stock as reported in the New York Stock Exchange composite quotations on the date of grant.

Q. 5. Will I receive "incentive stock options" as defined in the Internal Revenue Code or will I receive "non-qualified stock options"?

        All stock options granted in lieu of cash compensation will be non-qualified stock options. Under no circumstances will we issue any "incentive stock options" under this special program. For a discussion of the differences between the tax treatment of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options, see the discussion under the caption "Description of the UNOVA, Inc. 1999 Stock

2



Incentive Plan and the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan: Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences" set forth in this Prospectus.

Q. 6. What will be the other terms of these options?

        The options will be fully vested and exercisable on the date they are granted. They will expire, if not previously exercised, five years from the date they are granted. These options will be granted under either our 1999 Plan or our 2001 Plan, as we determine in each case. In addition to the terms and conditions of the options set forth in this Prospectus, the options will be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the 1999 Plan or the 2001 Plan. In the event that you leave our employ for a reason other than retirement, death, or disability as defined in those plans, you will generally have a period of three months following termination of employment to exercise these options.

Q. 7. Since the number of options I may receive in April will be based on my anticipated compensation for the entire 2002 fiscal year, will I forfeit some of the options if I leave employment with UNOVA prior to December 31, 2002?

        No; you will retain all of the options that are granted to you in April subject to their terms relating to exercisability following termination of employment referred to in the answer to Question 6 above.

Q. 8. If I receive an increase in compensation during the fiscal year, will the number of options I am eligible to receive be increased?

        No, not under this program.

Q. 9. What if I elect to receive part of my compensation in stock options but terminate my employment prior to receiving the options?

        We will work out an arrangement to recoup your foregone income if you leave the Company before the options were granted.

Q. 10. What is the deadline for making my election to receive stock options in lieu of cash compensation?

        The deadline for making this election is December 31, 2001. Your election form must be signed by this date. Once signed please fax or promptly mail it to Daniel S. Bishop, UNOVA's Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary at the UNOVA corporate office. We would expect to receive your signed and dated election forms before January 11, 2002. The election form is included as a separate page with this material you are receiving.

Q. 11. May I change my election prior to April 15, 2002? For example, if I do not receive the entire bonus amount I am expecting, may I reduce the amount of compensation I have elected for stock option payment so that I will have enough cash for my current requirements?

        No. Your election will be irrevocable. But note that the election form allows you to specify different percentages of base compensation and of bonus for stock option treatment. Thus, you could elect stock option payment of 10% of your base compensation but 50% of your bonus. Such an election might help assure that you have adequate cash compensation for current needs.

Q. 12. What does UNOVA recommend that I do?

        We recognize that the decision to accept stock options in lieu of cash compensation is an individual one that should be based on a variety of factors. You should consult with your personal

3



advisors about your financial or tax situation, and you should carefully review the materials concerning UNOVA and its financial condition that have been provided to you.

        Your decision of whether to accept stock options in lieu of cash compensation should take into account the various risks inherent in our business. These risks include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the strength of the automotive and aerospace markets; technological changes and developments; the presence of competitors with greater financial and other resources; the availability and cost of materials and supplies; relations with our employees; our ability to manage operating costs; worldwide political stability and economic conditions; regulatory uncertainties; and operating risks associated with international operations. You should talk to your personal advisors regarding these and other risks. Neither UNOVA nor its Board of Directors is making any recommendations as to whether or not you should elect to receive part of your compensation in the form of stock options or, if so, what percentage you should elect.

Q. 13. What effect will receipt of compensation in the form of stock options have on my current income tax liability?

        In the opinion of UNOVA's Tax Counsel, all taxable events are deferred until the options are exercised. Based upon current tax laws, the following tax rules should apply:

        The amount of your compensation you elect to forego (in order to receive stock options) will not be included in your taxable income. The stock options will not be taxable at grant. Upon exercise, you will recognize ordinary income equal to the gain on the stock options at the time of exercise. Any subsequent gains in the stock price will be treated as capital gains at the time of sale.

        In order to achieve the tax deferral on the bonus amount, it is necessary to meet the IRS guidelines for tax deferred plans. This requires that elections are irrevocable and must be made in advance of final compensation determinations.

        All participants are encouraged to consult with a tax professional before agreeing to waive any compensation in exchange for Non-Qualified Stock Options. Although the company believes that it is reasonable to conclude that you will not be taxed on the amount of waived bonus payments, the tax rules governing when individuals are in "constructive receipt" of income are not clear. The company's decision to provide you with the opportunity to forego cash compensation should not be construed as tax advice.

Q. 14. Will my acceptance or rejection of stock options in lieu of cash compensation affect the number of stock options I might receive in the future outside of this program?

        No. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors makes recommendations to the Board as to the grant of options or other stock-based awards from time to time based on various factors, including in certain cases the recommendations of independent compensation consultants which the Board may retain. The grant of any such stock-based awards is in the sole discretion of the Board and its Compensation Committee, and the award made to any individual will not be influenced in any way by the degree to which the individual elects to participate in this special program for 2002.

Q. 15. Could election of compensation in the form of stock options adversely affect my rights under any other employee benefit plan?

        Not so far as we are presently able to determine. We are amending the UNOVA Restoration Plan, Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, and Change of Control Employment Agreements to provide that participants will not suffer a loss in benefits under these executive plans because they elected to receive a part of their compensation in the form of stock options during 2002. We will also modify the executive insurance benefit so that it will not decrease.

Q. 16. Who should I contact if I have questions about this program?

        For additional information or assistance, you should contact Daniel S. Bishop by telephone at (818) 992-2902, or by email at dbishop@unova.com. You should consult your personal advisors if you have any questions about your financial or tax situation.

Participant Overview*
December 21, 2001

This Participant Overview is designed to supplement the information contained in the Plan Description.

Plan Guidelines

The options will be issued pursuant to the provisions of the UNOVA 1999 and 2001 Stock Incentive Plans.

Election—2001

In 2001, eligible participants may elect to forgo up to 50% of your 2001 bonus or up to 50% of your 2002 base salary, in increments of 10%. As required by the IRS, this election must be made prior to the time the bonus amount is determinable. Options will be granted on April 15, 2001. The exchange rate is 1 option for every $1 foregone. Once the election is made, it cannot be changed.

Example:

Election:   20% of Bonus
Bonus:   $50,000
Options Granted:   $10,000 × 1 =        10,000 options
(All amounts will be rounded down to he nearest whole number of options.)

The election for 2001 must be made no later than December 31, 2001.

To make an election, you must complete, sign, and date the enclosed election agreement no later than December 31, 2001. You must then promptly fax or mail the election form to Daniel S. Bishop at UNOVA's Corporate Offices.

Date of Option Grant

        Based on election decisions in 2001, eligible employees will receive option grants on or around April 15, 2002. This delay is a result of UNOVA's recently provided opportunity for option holders to exchange specified outstanding options for a new option award on October 8th, 2001. As a result, granting awards prior to April 15th would result in negative accounting implications for the Company.

Option Exercise Price

The option exercise price will be the fair market value of UNOVA stock on the date of grant, expected to be April 15th, 2002. The fair market value is determined by taking the average of the high and low reported sales price of the Common stock as reported in the New York Stock Exchange composite quotations on the date of grant.


*
The following is an overview only intended to broadly describe the plan's features. The Plan Document will control all issues regarding the options.

5


Vesting

Options granted in exchange for the 2001 deferral decisions will vest immediately upon the date of grant.

Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee of the UNOVA Board of Directors, all options will generally expire on the earlier of 5 years or 3 months after termination of employment, excluding termination for death, disability or retirement.

Exercise

No options may be exercised before the date of grant; however, at any time after the date of grant, each participant may exercise some or all of their vested options up until the date of option expiration.

Tax Impact

Based upon current tax laws, the following tax rules should apply:

    The original bonus amount will not be included in 2002 taxable income.

    Any salary deferred in 2002 will not be included in 2002 taxable income.

    The stock options will not be taxable at grant. Upon exercise, you will recognize ordinary income equal to the gain on the stock options at the time of exercise. Any subsequent gains in the stock price will be treated as capital gains at the time of sale.

Example:

Grant = 2,000 options at $4
Exercise 2,000 options at $8
Gain of $4 times 2,000 shares = $8,000
Ordinary Income = $8,000

In order to achieve the tax deferral on the bonus amount in 2001, it is necessary to meet the IRS guidelines for tax deferred plans. This requires that elections are irrevocable and must be made in advance of bonus determinations.

The balance of the gain on the sale of the stock is treated as capital gains.

All participants are encouraged to consult with a tax professional before agreeing to forgo any bonus payments for Non-Qualified Stock Options. Although the company believes that it is reasonable to conclude that you will be not taxed on the amount of waived bonus payments, the tax rules governing when individuals are in "constructive receipt" of income are not clear. The company's decision to provide you with the opportunity to waive bonus payments should not be construed as tax advice.

Examples of Potential Investment Growth

Examples of potential investment growth under the cash and stock options purchase alternatives are presented on the following pages. These examples do not in any way represent the Company's expectations or projections for share price movement; rather, they represent arbitrary percentages used for illustrative purposes only. Actual gains, if any, upon future exercise of these options will depend on the actual performance of the Company's common stock in the market and the continued employment of the individual holding the option through its vesting period.

It is also important to keep in mind that all examples are presented before the impact of taxes are considered. Obviously, cash bonuses, investment earnings and option gains would all be subject to taxation.

For illustrative purposes only, the company has assumed a $4 average price of common stock on the date of grant.

Example 1—Receive a $10,000 Cash Bonus

If you invest your (tax deferred) bonus in a fixed rate investment fund, it may earn $2,763 in 5 years1, as illustrated below.

Example 2—Forgo a $10,000 Bonus for UNOVA Stock Options

If the $10,000 cash bonus were forgone for options, it would result in a grant of 10,000 option with an assumed grant price of $4 (computed as 1 × $10,000). The following table illustrates the value given various stock price scenarios.

For example, if the UNOVA stock price increases 10% each year, and you choose to exercise your options in April of 2006, your options may be worth $24,420 before tax, $14,420 more than the original cash bonus and $11,657 more than the original cash bonus with 5 years of investment income (assuming the bonus was distributed to a tax deferred account such as a 401(k)).

If the Market Value of UNOVA stock is less than or equal to the strike/purchase price, (0% or less stock price growth rate), then the stock options have no value at that time.

        UNOVA
Irrevocable Election to Waive a
Portion of Employee's 2001 Bonus Payment and 2002
Salary Pursuant to the
UNOVA Senior Management Deferred Bonus Program

1.
I elect that                        % (in increments of 10% to a maximum of 50%) of my 2001 bonus will be waived in exchange for nonqualified stock options pursuant to the UNOVA Election to Receive Employee Stock Options in Lieu of Certain Cash Compensation Payable to UNOVA Officers.

2.
I elect that an additional                        % (in increments of 10% to a maximum of 50%) of my 2002 salary on January 1, 2002will be waived in exchange for nonqualified stock options pursuant to the UNOVA Election to Receive Employee Stock Options in Lieu of Certain Cash Compensation Payable to UNOVA Officers.

I understand that:

    This election is irrevocable and subject to the approval of the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors of UNOVA (the "Committee").

        3.    The Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement dated as of October 31, 1997, between the Company and Brann, as subsequently amended through the date hereof (as so amended, the "SERA"), provides that Brann may commence receiving a Retirement Benefit (as defined in the SERA) on or after attaining age 60.

        4.    The amount of Brann's Retirement Benefit under the SERA is determined, in part, by Brann's age at retirement.

        5.    Brann will be age 59 years and seven months at his proposed retirement date of July 31, 2001.

        6.    Brann has proposed that he surrender to the Company for cancellation all employee stock options to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock presently held by Brann in exchange for the Company's agreement that, for purposes of the calculation of the amount of his Retirement Benefit under the SERA and the date on which payments may commence, Brann shall be deemed to have reached the age of 60 as of July 31, 2001.

        7.    The Board of Directors of the Company desires to accept Brann's proposal.

In consideration of the foregoing, the parties agree as follows:

        (a)  Brann hereby agrees to surrender, assign, and transfer to the Company on July 31, 2001, for cancellation all stock options, whether or not then exercisable, held by Brann or by any entity, including any family trust, to which Brann may have transferred such options, which options were granted under the UNOVA, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive Plan and under the UNOVA, Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan as more specifically listed and set forth in Exhibit A hereto. Brann agrees to execute and deliver to the Company such documents of assignment or other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the surrender for cancellation of such options and to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange any such forms or other documents as in the opinion of the Company's General Counsel may be required or desirable.

        (b)  Brann represents and warrants that all options described in paragraph (a) are held either by Brann in his individual capacity or by Alton J. Brann and Anna J. Brann, Trustees of the Brann Revocable Trust created UTD April 7, 2000, and that such Trust has consented to this Agreement by its Trustees in a manner consistent with the terms of such Trust.

        (c)  Brann and the Company stipulate and agree that Brann's Retirement Benefit under the SERA will be computed in accordance with the following provisions: Brann's Average Earnings (as defined in the SERA) will be computed in accordance with the methodology set forth in the SERA and such Average Earnings will be multiplied by 47.5%, which is the factor applicable to Brann if he had attained age 60 and been credited with 25 or more years of service. The amount so determined shall be reduced by 12%, which represents a reduction at the rate of 1/2 of 1% for each month which would elapse between the date on which Brann shall attain the age of 60 and the date on which Brann shall

-1-



attain the age of 62, all in accordance with the provisions of the SERA. The Offset Amount (as that term is defined in the SERA) shall then be subtracted from the amount computed pursuant to the foregoing sentence. The resulting Retirement Benefit shall be paid in monthly installments commencing on August 1, 2001, and shall be paid as a 100% joint and survivor annuity representing the Actuarial Equivalent of the amount determined (as a single life annuity) in accordance with this paragraph (c).

        (d)  Brann and the Company each stipulate, agree, and understand that Brann will request commencement of payment of his retirement benefits under the UNOVA Pension Plan and the UNOVA, Inc. Restoration Plan as of the first date payments may commence under the terms of such plans (which dates would be August 1, 2001, under the terms of the UNOVA Pension Plan and the first day of the month following the date Brann actually attains the age of 62 under the terms of the UNOVA, Inc. Restoration Plan). Brann's benefits under these plans will be determined in accordance with the terms of such two plans with reductions, where applicable, in the amount of the benefits to take into account reductions attributable to the commencement of payments on the earliest allowable dates. Thus the assumed retirement age of 60 utilized for purposes of computation of Brann's SERA benefit will play no role in the determination of benefits under the UNOVA Pension Plan or the UNOVA, Inc. Restoration Plan. The calculation of those components of the Offset Amount (as that term is used in the SERA) attributable to benefits which Brann receives under these two plans (or which he could have received assuming full participation at all times of eligibility) (but excluding any Part II benefits payable under the UNOVA, Inc. Restoration Plan) will be calculated in accordance with the terms of the SERA and in accordance with this paragraph (d).

        (e)  As provided in Article VI of the UNOVA, Inc. Management Incentive Compensation Plan, Brann shall be entitled to receive that portion of any Bonus for which he may qualify under the terms of such Plan (based on the degree to which Performance Goals applicable to Brann are satisfied) determined by multiplying the total amount of such Bonus by 7/12.

        (f)    The following provisions of the SERA are hereby incorporated by reference in this Agreement, mutatis mutandis: Section 9.3, Section 10.2, Section 10.3, Section 10.4, Section 10.5, Section 10.6, and Section 10.7.

The parties have signed this Agreement as of the day and date first above written.

UNOVA, INC.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS' RESOLUTIONS
GRANT OF STOCK OPTIONS TO OFFICERS OF UNOVA, INC.
IN LIEU OF COMPENSATION

        WHEREAS, this corporation proposes to give its officers the opportunity to elect to receive certain options to purchase the Common Stock of this corporation in lieu of receiving a portion of the compensation to which they would otherwise be entitled to receive during the 2002 fiscal year, whether comprising base salary for fiscal 2002 or the bonus award to such officer made with respect to the 2002 fiscal year but payable in 2002; and

        WHEREAS, this Board of Directors desires that no employee who voluntarily elects to receive such stock options shall in any way experience any adverse effect under this corporation's Restoration Plan, Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement dated as of March 15, 2000, between this corporation and Larry D. Brady, or Change of Control Employment Agreements;

        NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that for all purposes of the UNOVA, Inc. Restoration Plan, all amounts of cash compensation, whether comprising base salary or bonus amounts payable in calendar 2002, which an employee elects to forego in order to receive stock options in lieu thereof shall, notwithstanding any provision of the Restoration Plan to the contrary, be regarded as a portion of such employee's Annual Compensation (for the 2002 calendar year but for no other period of time), as that term is defined and used in such Restoration Plan;

        RESOLVED FURTHER, that for purposes of the UNOVA, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan any amounts of base salary which a participant elects to forego during the 2002 fiscal year in order to receive employee stock options shall be regarded as a part of the participant's "gross base salary" for 2002 for purposes of computing the employee's Average Earnings as that term is defined and used in the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan; and all amounts of the employee's bonus award with respect to the 2001 fiscal year but payable during 2002 which are foregone by the employee for purposes of receiving stock options shall be included in the employee's "Bonus", as that term is used in the formula for computing Average Earnings and shall be deemed to have been paid to the participant in equal monthly installments during the 2001 fiscal year; and

        RESOLVED FURTHER, that for purposes of the Agreement between the Corporation and Larry D. Brady referred to above any amounts of base salary which Mr. Brady elects to forego during the 2002 fiscal year for the purpose of receiving stock options in lieu thereof shall be regarded as part of his "Gross Base Salary" for 2002 for purposes of computing Mr. Brady's Average Earnings as that term is defined and used in such Retirement Agreement; and all amounts of Mr. Brady's bonus with respect to the 2001 fiscal year but payable during 2002 which are foregone by Mr. Brady for the purpose of receiving stock options shall be included in Mr. Brady's "Bonus" as that term is used in the formula for computing his Average Earnings and shall be deemed to have been paid in equal monthly installments during the 2001 fiscal year; and

        RESOLVED, that for purposes of each and every calculation to be made under any so-called Change of Control Employment Agreement between this corporation and any of its executives (whether or not such executive is an officer of this corporation) the term "Annual Base Salary" when applicable to the 2002 fiscal year shall include the amount of cash which such executive has foregone for the purpose of receiving in lieu thereof stock options; and the term "Annual Bonus" when applicable to the 2001 fiscal year shall include the amount of the bonus awarded to the executive with respect to the 2001 fiscal year but payable during 2002 which the executive has elected to forego for the purpose of receiving in lieu thereof stock options.
