6 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements American Locker Group Incorporated and Subsidiaries 1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the condensed financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of such condensed financial statements have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the Company's consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. 2. On July 6, 2001, the Company entered into and consummated a Stock and Real Estate Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding capital stock of B.L.L. Corporation, d/b/a Security Manufacturing Corporation a privately held Texas corporation, for $9,100,000. The Company incurred transaction related costs of approximately $210,000. Of the $9,100,000 purchase price, $8,140,000 was paid at closing and $960,000 is payable over three years. The Company also purchased related real estate from the owners of B.L.L. Corporation for cash consideration of $3,500,000. The purchase price of the stock and the related real estate was funded with cash on hand, the three-year note payable of $960,000 described above and the proceeds of additional term loan borrowings of approximately $11,000,000. Goodwill of approximately $6,300,000 has been recorded in connection with the acquisition. See the Report on Form 8-K dated July 12, 2001 and the Report on Form 8-K/A dated filed September 5, 2001, by the Company for more information regarding this acquisition. The operating results of B.L.L. Corporation have been included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income from the July 6, 2001 acquisition date. The assets and liabilities of B.L.L. Corporation are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2001. 3. Provision for income taxes is based upon the estimated annual effective tax rate. 4. Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, plus, when dilutive, the common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of stock options, during the periods. Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding were 2,049,546 (2,246,355 in 2000) and 2,085,469 (2,260,685 in 2000) respectively for the three-month period ending September 30, 2001. During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company paid $98,930 to purchase 12,470 shares of common stock. These shares are included as treasury stock at September 30, 2001. Additionally, the Company purchased and retired 424 shares of common stock for $3,560 during the nine months ended September 30, 2001. 7 5. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by using the last-in, first-out method for substantially all of the inventories.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations is presented as if the acquisition of B.L.L. Corporation ("BLL") and related real estate ("Real Estate") had occurred as of January 1, 2000.

8 The above financial information does not include amortization of goodwill that was recorded in connection with the acquisition of B.L.L. Corporation. This due to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which was issued in July 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires that existing goodwill and certain intangible assets no longer be amortized, but tested for impairment. 9 Item 2. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations American Locker Group Incorporated and Subsidiaries FIRST NINE MONTHS 2001 VERSUS FIRST NINE MONTHS 2000 Sales for the first nine months of 2001 of $29,318,000 increased $2,410,000 or 9% compared to sales of $26,908,000 during the same period in 2000. Plastic locker sales to the United States Postal Service (USPS) totaled $19,201,000 in 2001 compared to $18,801,000 during 2000. Plastic Cluster Box Units (CBUs) sales were $18,252,000 in 2001 compared to $17,832,000 during 2000. The increase in sales of Plastic CBUs of $420,000 from 2000 to 2001 is the result of a sharp increase during the third quarter of 2001 compared to the third quarter of 2000, which offset a decline in Plastic CBU sales during the first six months of 2001 versus 2000. Sales of Outdoor Parcel Lockers (OPLs) were $949,000 in 2001 compared to $969,000 in 2000. Sales of metal, mechanical and electronic lockers, which includes the Company's luggage cart business, were $10,117,000 for the first nine months of 2001 compared to $8,107,000 for the first nine months of 2000, an increase of $2,010,000.. This $2,010,000 increase consists of $1,270,000 from the Company's new subsidiary B.L.L. Corporation, d/b/a Security Manufacturing Corporation, the remaining $740,000, which represents a 9% increase from 2000 to 2001, relates to price increases, increased penetration in the shopping center market and a general increase in demand across certain other markets served. The Company believes that the long-term outlook for CBU volume remains favorable in light of the continued USPS commitment to the CBU program and its resulting operating cost reduction benefits. The USPS decision to discontinue the purchase of Neighborhood Delivery and Collection Box Units (NDCBUs) in 1999 has also had a positive impact on the CBU market. The CBU is the modernization of the NDCBU and is an integral part of the USPS delivery cost reduction program identified as Centralized Delivery. As previously disclosed, total CBU demand is influenced by a number of factors over which the Company has no control, including but not limited to: USPS budgets, policies and financial performance, domestic new housing starts, postal rate increases, and the weather as these units are installed outdoors. The Company believes its CBU product line, including the acquired line of aluminum CBUs made by the Company's new subsidiary, B.L.L Corporation, continues to represent the best value when all factors including price, quality of design and construction, long-term durability and service are considered. Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales was 71.7% during the nine months of 2001 compared to 70.7% in the nine months of 2000. For the first nine months of 2001, selling, general and administrative costs decreased by $67,000 over the same period in 2000. The decrease primarily relates to approximately $360,000 of expenses that were recorded as selling expenses in 2000, whereas in 2001 these similar expenses are recorded as cost of products sold. Selling, general and administrative expenses of $320,000 incurred by B.L.L. Corporation during the period since the July 6, 2001 acquisition date offset this decrease. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percent of sales was 16.4% in 2001 compared to 18.1% in 2000. 10 Interest expense for the nine months of 2001 was $283,000 compared to $126,000 in the same period in 2000. The increase results from the Company's increased debt to finance the acquisition of B.L.L. Corporation in July 2001. THIRD QUARTER 2001 VERSUS THIRD QUARTER 2000 Third quarter sales were $11,375,000, an increase of $2,962,000 from the same period in 2000. Plastic locker sales, including CBUs were $7,261,000 in the third quarter of 2001, an increase of $1,423,000 or 24% over third quarter of 2000 sales of $5,838,000. Sales of metal, mechanical and electronic lockers were $4,114,000 during the third quarter of 2001, $1,539,000 higher than 2000, of which $1,272,000 represents sales of B.L.L. Corporation, the remaining $267,000 increase represents a 10% increase in third quarter 2001 versus third quarter 2000 sales. Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales was 72.8% during the third quarter of 2001, up from 70.9% during the third quarter of 2000. This is primarily the result of approximately $120,000 of quarterly costs in 2000 being recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses, whereas in 2001 these similar costs are recorded as cost of products sold. Selling, administrative and general expenses were 16.5% of net sales during the third quarter of 2001 compared to 19.5% in the third quarter of 2000. The percentage decrease in 2001 is due to the reclassification described in the previous paragraph and due to the increased sales in 2001. Interest expense in the third quarter of $254,000 increased from $19,000 in the third quarter of 2000 due to the increased outstanding debt in 2001 to finance the acquisition of B.L.L. Corporation in July 2001. LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL The Company's liquidity is reflected in the ratio of current assets to current liabilities or current ratio and its working capital. The current ratio was 3.34 to 1 at September 30, 2001 and 4.39 to 1 at December 31, 2000, respectively. Working capital, the excess of current assets over current liabilities, was $12,033,000 at September 30, 2001, an increase of $1,327,000 over $10,706,000 at December 31, 2000. Cash provided by operating activities was $2,720,000 during the first nine months of 2001, compared to $1,281,000 provided by operating activities for the same period in 2000. The Company's $3,000,000 line of credit is available to assist in satisfying future working capital needs, if required. The Company anticipates that its requirements for funds for operations and capital expenditures will be provided principally from cash generated from future operations. However, if necessary, the Company has a $3,000,000 revolving bank line-of-credit available to assist in satisfying future operating cash needs. 11 EFFECTS OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in July 2001. SFAS No. 141, which is effective for all companies as of June 30, 2001, requires the use of the purchase method of accounting for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires that existing goodwill and certain intangible assets no longer be amortized, but tested for impairment. SFAS No. 142 will be effective for the Company's 2002 year, except that goodwill established in connection with the acquisition described above, will not be amortized during the remainder of 2001. SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 Forward-looking statements in this report, including without limitation, statements relating to the Company's plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, intentions and adequacy of resources, are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Investors are cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including without limitation the following: (i) the Company's plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, and intentions are subject to change at any time at the discretion of the Company, (ii) the Company's plans and results of operations will be affected by the Company's ability to manage its growth and inventory, and (iii) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings On July 30, 2001, the Company received a letter from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (the "DEC") advising the Company that it is a potentially responsible party with respect to environmental contamination at a site located in Gowanda, New York, which was sold by the Company to Gowanda Electronics Corp. prior to 1980. The letter from the DEC states that a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study has been conducted at the site and a remediation plan selected. Based on information currently available, the Company believes that its potential liability with respect to current action by the DEC with regard to this site will not have a material affect on the financial condition of the Company. Defense of this matter has been assumed by the Company's insurance carrier, subject to a reservation of rights. As previously reported, the Company was in December 1998 named as a defendant in a lawsuit titled "ROBERTA RAIPORT, ET AL. V. GOWANDA ELECTRONICS CORP. AND AMERICAN LOCKER GROUP, INC." pending in the State of New York Supreme Court, County of Cattaragus. The suit involves the same property as the DEC matter described above. The company believes that its liability with respect to this suit, if any, is diminimus. Therefore, based on the information currently available, management does not believe the outcome of this suit will have a substantial impact on the Company's operations or financial condition. Defense of this case has been assumed by the Company's insurance carrier, subject to a customary reservation of rights. 12 Item 5. Other Information On July 6, 2001, the Company entered into and consummated a Stock and Real Estate Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding capital stock of B.L.L. Corporation, a privately held Texas corporation, for $9,100,000. $8,140,000 of this amount was paid at closing and $960,000 is payable over three years. The Company also purchased related real estate from the owners of B.L.L. Corporation for cash consideration of $3,500,000. The purchase price was funded with cash on hand, the three year note payable of $960,000 noted above and the proceeds of additional term loan borrowings of approximately $11,000,000. See the Report on Form 8-K dated July 12, 2001 and the Report on Form 8-K/A dated September 5, 2001, filed by the Company for more information on this acquisition. Item 6.
