(the "Company") is being filed in order to restate the consolidated financial statements for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 and to make corresponding changes to Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Item 4, Controls and Procedures. The restated financial statements reflect, among other things, an increase in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 from $2,558,536 as first reported to $2,907,736, and a decrease in cost of products sold for such period from $27,154,032 as first reported to $26,454,940 and an increase in inventories as of September 30, 2004 from $4,956,558 as first reported to $5,538,558. These adjustments result from inventory costing errors. As a result, cost of goods sold was overstated and inventory values were understated in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2004. In addition, the Company has reclassified purchase discounts in the amount of $57,182 for the third quarter of 2004, $117,092 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, $33,958 for the third quarter of 2003 and $89,318 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. These reclassifications reduce cost of sales and other income. As set forth in Item 4 of this Form 10-Q/A and more fully described in Item 9A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with respect to the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company has determined that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2004. As described in such report on Form 10-K, the Company has adopted and is implementing changes to its system of disclosure controls and internal controls. No attempt has been made in this Form 10-Q/A to update other disclosures presented in the Form 10-Q, except as required to reflect the effects of the restatement. This Form 10-Q/A does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Form 10-Q or modify or update those disclosures, including the exhibits to the Form 10-Q affected by subsequent events. Information not affected by the restatement is unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time of the original filing of the Form 10-Q. This Form 10-Q/A includes, however, as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 32.1 new certifications of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and principal accounting officer, as required by applicable rules. Accordingly, this Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with the Company's filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-Q, including any amendments to those filings. 2 PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION ITEM 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AMERICAN LOCKER GROUP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FIRST NINE MONTHS 2004 VERSUS FIRST NINE MONTHS 2003 Overall Results and Outlook 2004 results improved compared to 2003, primarily due to increased shipments of plastic and aluminum Cluster Box Units (CBUs) to the United States Postal Service (USPS), and secondarily, due to increased sales of indoor mailboxes to our distributor network by our Security Manufacturing (SMC) subsidiary. As previously disclosed in our 10Q filing for the second quarter of 2004, in July, 2004 the Company received large, bulk orders for plastic and aluminum CBUs from several USPS districts. During the third quarter of 2004 the Company shipped over 7000 plastic CBUs and over 1500 aluminum CBUs in bulk to these USPS districts. The bulk orders totaled in excess of $7,000,000 in sales value. These orders were primarily in addition to the normal order flow we would have expected in the third quarter and may not be indicative of future USPS order patterns. Net income increased by $1,471,000 in 2004 versus 2003 as a result of the increased sales volume. Gross margins declined, 30.5% in 2003 as compared to 30.2% in 2004, due to rising material costs, changes in product mix, and labor premiums to support the increased shipment volume. Earnings per share on a diluted basis increased to $1.86 in 2004 versus $0.93 in 2003, as a result of the increased net income. In October 2004, the Company's contracts with the USPS were extended for a three and one half month term expiring on February 28, 2005. Based on the increased sales volume in 2004, the Company extended price reductions of approximately 1% on all plastic and aluminum CBUs. If future USPS orders are consistent with 2004 levels these reductions in selling price will reduce income before income taxes by approximately $280,000 on an annualized basis. We have been advised by the USPS that it will, as in past years, seek bids with respect to these contracts and that the Company has been pre-qualified to bid. The USPS has also advised the Company that our current competitor (which has an existing USPS contract for aluminum CBUs) has been pre-qualified to bid along with three new potential competitors. The USPS has also indicated that it will upgrade the specification that CBUs are designed to meet to increase resistance to mail theft. The Company has reviewed drafts of the new specification and has initiated design efforts to address the increased security requirements. If the USPS does issue a new specification, the Company will incur increased capital expenditures to modify or replace existing tooling. We can not predict the amount or timing of these expenditures until the specification is finalized and our design solution is built and tested. Based on current information from the USPS, we anticipate the contracting process will be completed by December 31, 2004 but we can not predict the outcome. The Company believes that its product line provides the best value to the USPS when all factors including price, quality of design and construction, long-term durability and service are considered. The current contracts cover all four types of plastic CBUs, aluminum CBUs and the Outdoor Parcel Locker (OPL). As previously disclosed, total CBU demand is influenced by a number of factors over which the Company has no control, including 11 but not limited to: USPS budgets, policies and financial performance, domestic new housing starts, postal rate increases, postal purchasing practices and the weather, as these units are installed outdoors. Net Sales Sales for the first nine months of 2004 of $37,883,000 increased $9,705,000 or 34% compared to sales of $28,178,000 during the same period in 2003. Plastic locker sales to the USPS and developers or distributors for use in the delivery of U.S. mail totaled $22,028,000 in 2004 compared to $15,579,000 during 2003. The increase in sales of Plastic CBUs from 2003 to 2004 is the result of increased purchases by the USPS and increased sales to non-Postal customers. Price reductions extended to the USPS in April of 2003 had an impact of reducing sales by approximately $43,000 in the first nine months of 2004 versus the comparable period in 2003. Sales of metal, coin and key-only and electronically controlled lockers, and aluminum CBUs were $15,855,000 for the first nine months of 2004 and $12,599,000 for the first nine months of 2003. This $3,256,000 increase consists of additional sales of $3,611,000 made by the Company's subsidiary, Security Manufacturing Corporation (SMC), offset by decreases in sales of other locker products, as well as the termination of the Company's luggage cart services at the Detroit International Airport in January 2004. The Company no longer provides any luggage cart rental services. Cost of Sales Consolidated cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 69.8% in both 2004 and 2003. This ratio remained steady despite increases in aluminum and steel material costs experienced during the first nine months of 2004 that have not been passed through to customers in the form of price increases and also to labor premiums incurred to support the increased shipment volumes. Selling, Administrative and General Expenses Selling, administrative and general expenses were $6,366,000 during the first nine months of 2004, an increase of $407,000 from $5,959,000 during the first nine months of 2003. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $205,000 in reserves for company-wide bonuses, $113,000 in increased engineering costs relating to product development, as well as $114,000 incurred in June 2004 relating to an early retirement program covering three employees who elected to retire. Annual savings going forward from these retirements are projected to exceed $200,000. Also, certain selling expenses increased in 2004 due to increased sales. Reductions were made in other discretionary areas to partially offset these increases. 2003 expenses were impacted by a charge of $65,000 for a severance agreement relating to a terminated management employee at SMC. Selling, administrative and general expenses were 16.8% of sales for the first nine months of 2004 versus 21.1% in the same period of 2003. Interest Expense Interest expense for 2004 was $365,000 compared to $402,000 for 2003. The decrease 12 resulted from lower outstanding debt during 2004 compared to 2003 as the Company continues to make scheduled payments on its outstanding debt. No new long-term debt was incurred during 2004 or 2003. The Company reduced its outstanding debt by $1,635,000 from September 30, 2003 to September 30, 2004. Other Income - net Other income - net consists primarily of service maintenance revenues, which were $51,000 in 2004 and $84,000 in 2003. The decline in service maintenance revenue is the result of fewer ongoing maintenance agreements. Income Taxes Income taxes increased in 2004 versus 2003 due to the increased income before income taxes. The effective tax rate was 39% in 2004 and 2003. Third Quarter 2004 Versus Third Quarter 2003 Third quarter sales were $18,074,000 in 2004, an increase of $8,560,000 from the same period in 2003. The increase was primarily related to increases in sales of plastic and aluminum CBUs to the USPS. Plastic locker sales were $12,180,000 and $5,442,000 in 2004 and 2003, respectively, an increase of $6,738,000. The increase is the result of the factors discussed above. The balance of the increase in sales is attributed to increases in sales of aluminum CBUs to the USPS and our distributor network and increases in sales of indoor mailboxes to our distributor network. Cost of products sold as a percentage of sales was 71.0% during the third quarter of 2004, compared to 69.6% during the second quarter of 2003. The deterioration in 2004 is primarily due to rising material costs, labor premiums related to meeting the USPS bulk orders and product mix. Selling, administrative and general expenses were 11.8% of net sales during the third quarter of 2004 compared to 21.4% in the third quarter of 2003. The decreased percentage is due to the increased sales volume in the third quarter of 2004. Other income - net increased $39,000 during the third quarter of 2004 compared to 2003. This caption consists primarily of service maintenance contracts. Interest expense in the third quarter of 2004 of $135,000 increased from $112,000 in 2003 as a result of rise in interest rates partially offset by the reduction in outstanding debt. 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 3.3 to 1 at September 30, 2004 and 3.1 to 1 at December 31, 2003. Working capital, the excess of current assets over current liabilities, was 13 $12,306,000 at September 30, 2004, an increase of $2,453,000 over $9,853,000 at December 31, 2003. Cash provided by operating activities was $3,494,000 during the first nine months of 2004 compared to $1,905,000 of cash provided by operating activities in 2003. This increase of cash in 2004 relates primarily to increased sales of plastic and aluminum CBUs combined with reductions in finished goods inventory. Anticipating that USPS order patterns and sales to other customers will be similar to previous years, the Company expects that cash will continue to be generated by operations for the balance of 2004, subject to the rate at which finished goods inventory is replenished. The Company's policy is to maintain modern equipment and adequate capacity. During the first nine months of 2004, the Company expended $161,000 for capital additions. The Company anticipates spending approximately $300,000 on new machinery to expand production capacity in the balance of 2004. It is expected that capital expenditures will be funded from cash on hand or cash generated from operations in 2004. The Company anticipates that cash on hand and cash generated from operations in 2004 will be adequate to fund working capital needs, capital expenditures and debt payments. However, if necessary, the Company has a $3,000,000 revolving bank line of credit available to assist in satisfying future operating cash needs, no amount is outstanding under the line of credit at September 30, 2004 EFFECTS OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS There are no recently issued accounting standards that the Company believes will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, of the 14 effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of September 30, 2004. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company's management and board of directors that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to its management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, including all matters discussed in the paragraphs below, the principal executive officer and principal accounting officer of the Company have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2004 were not effective, at the reasonable assurance level, to ensure that (a) material information relating to the Company is accumulated and made known to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (b) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC's rules and forms. There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2004. Subsequent to the period covered by this Quarterly Report, management became aware of an inventory costing error, requiring a restatement of financial statements to reflect, among other things, increases in net income and inventory and a decrease in cost of products sold. As a result, cost of goods sold was overstated and inventory values were understated as of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 and the nine months ended September 30, 2004. After investigating this matter and consulting with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, the Company has adjusted the interim financial statements to correct the inventory costing error and has disclosed the impact of such changes in this Quarterly Report. In addition, taking into account the communications dated May 11, 2005 and June 28, 2005 by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, management identified material weaknesses in the Company's internal control over financial reporting with respect to its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. A description of those material weaknesses and the Company's related remediation efforts is set forth in Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. 15 PART II.
