      The Company was originally incorporated in 1967 and was incorporated in
its present form in 1988, under the laws of the State of Michigan.

INDUSTRY TRENDS

      The principal factor affecting tooling demand is the level of capital
spending on manufacturing equipment for use in the production of new products or
models and, in the Company's case, predominantly the automotive industry. The
market for U.S. produced tooling has both cyclical and structural factors that
create tooling product demand.

      The cyclical factors are associated with the consumer demand levels as
well as capital spending in various end-use sectors. Generally, tooling sales
are less dependent on the level of automotive unit sales, but are more dependent
on the introduction of new and updated product designs into the marketplace. The
introduction of a new automotive model creates a demand for new tooling. This
new tooling then creates the product parts that are assembled into the new
models. Some slight variations in the production platform, such as changes to
the drive train of an automobile, may involve no new tooling but may entail
slight modifications in existing tooling in order to allow the production of
components with these minor modifications. For the most part, the vast majority
of new models require completely new tooling.

      The structural factors affecting automotive tooling demand include the
OEMs trend to shorter product cycles (30-36 month product cycle) as well as
compressed tooling lead times (9-12 months). Additionally, the implementation of
globalized manufacturing strategies, including the increasing competitiveness of
foreign toolmakers, as well as the capture of domestic industry production share
by offshore-based firms affect domestic automotive tooling demand.

                                       3


PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

      Dies. The Company's dies are used in the high-speed production of sheet
metal stamped parts and assemblies. Production of such parts is a multiple step
process involving a series of dies. Typically, the first die is used to cut the
appropriate size metal blank from a sheet or coil of steel. The next die draws
the metal blank into its primary shape and subsequent dies are used to bend
edges or corners, create flanges, trim-off excess metal and pierce assembly
holes. A customer usually orders only one series of dies for each separate part.
Normally, the dies do not require replacement due to usage because the life of
well-maintained dies is sufficient to carry production to the point when styling
changes dictate production of new dies. The dies manufactured by the Company
generally include automation features, adding to the complexity of design and
construction. These automation features facilitate rapid introduction and
removal of the work piece or raw material into and out of the die, thereby
increasing production speeds and reducing labor cost for part manufacturers.

      Engineering of Product and Process. As the OEMs continue their efforts to
reduce lead times of new model launches, the Company produces concurrently,
rather than sequentially, many of its tool designs and manufacturing processes.
In certain instances, before the final design by the customer is complete, the
Company already has ordered many of the raw materials, such as steel, and may
have begun various machining operations. Typically, the Company will receive
part data or descriptions in the form of electronic files, which the customer
wants the Company to use in developing a tool to produce that part. The tool
design is then created by the Company, utilizing computer aided-design ("CAD")
software. The Company then utilizes computer software that simulates the
metal-forming process within the die. This simulation data is then utilized in
final die design to reduce the need for expensive and time-consuming reworking
of the die during the tryout process. Upon completion of tool design, the
Company develops the computer programs (computer-aided-manufacturing ("CAM")
software) which drive the cutter paths on the machine tools. These machine tools
fabricate many components for the tool. A variety of machine tools are utilized
to cut and polish the various parts and surfaces of the tool, including the
Company's high-speed machining centers and 5-axis machining centers, all of
which are computer-numerically-controlled ("CNC"). The process of utilizing
high-speed CNC machining centers reduces the traditional requirement for
expensive and time-consuming hand finishing. After the tool components are
produced or purchased, they are assembled and fitted together.

      Prototype Tooling and Parts. Prototype tooling and parts are utilized
during the design phase of new models. The automobile manufacturers validate the
fit and function of the respective components and assemblies and the
repeatability of the respective production processes using these tools. The
parts manufactured from prototype tools are also often used in crash testing.

      Typically, prototype tools associated with the primary metal forming
operations are manufactured from an alloy casting or mild steel and subsequently
machined using the mathematical database and related CNC programs. After
machining, the prototype tools are assembled and tested to validate the
integrity and repeatability of the final manufacturing process. The results of
the validation process are incorporated into the mathematical database, which
will then be used to manufacture the final production tools. After testing the
primary forming operations, prototype parts are manufactured using special
means, such as computerized laser-cutting machines, to trim off excess scrap and
to incorporate various slots and holes. These parts are then sent to the
automobile manufacturers for further testing and evaluation. The results of this
testing and evaluation may require the incorporation of additional design and
manufacturing process modifications prior to construction of the production
tooling.

MANUFACTURING

      The manufacturing process starts when the Company is awarded a tooling
contract. The engineering process commences when an electronic "model" of the
part to be produced is transmitted to the Company as a mathematical database or
electronic files. Company engineers use the mathematical database to generate
computer-aided die designs and die face cutter path programs. These cutter path
programs are used by the machine tools to manufacture the inner workings of the
die. Most material is removed and the cutting is done by CNC machine tools,
which utilize the computer-generated cutter path programs to cut and polish the
various parts of the tool. After the tool components are produced or purchased,
they are assembled and fitted together. Finally, after the die is constructed,
the Company produces a "tryout" or run of parts. These parts are then evaluated
statistically for process repeatability and dimensional validation on the
Company's coordinate measuring machine. During this automated validation
process, the tool is statistically compared to the mathematical database.

                                       4


      On average, 10 months elapse from the time the Company is awarded a
contract until the final set of dies is shipped to the customer.

QS 9000/TE CERTIFICATION

            The Company is certified under the Tooling and Equipment Supplement
("TE Supplement") QS-9000 and ISO-9000 Quality Standards. The TE
Supplement/QS-9000 standard was developed jointly by DaimlerChrysler, Ford, and
General Motors to establish a single set of quality requirements for their
tooling suppliers. ISO 9000 is an international quality standard for all
industries.

            The TE Supplement has become the international standard of all
quality systems in the tooling industry, designed to ensure that systems are in
place to prevent defects from occurring in the design, manufacturing and
validation phases of our processes. The Company, by receiving the TE
Supplement/QS-9000 certification, has demonstrated that its quality systems are
in place to meet customer requirements.

RAW MATERIALS

      The steel, castings and other components utilized by the Company in the
manufacturing process are available from many different sources and the Company
is not dependent on any single source. The Company typically purchases its raw
materials on a purchase order basis as needed and has generally been able to
obtain adequate supplies of raw materials for its operations.

MARKETING AND SALES

      The Company's marketing emphasis is on DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General
Motors, Mercedes-Benz and BMW and their respective tier one suppliers. The
Company maintains relationships with DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors,
Mercedes-Benz and BMW that directly accounted for approximately 5%, in the
aggregate, of the Company's revenues in 2004. For the year ended August 31,
2004, DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and their
respective tier one suppliers accounted for approximately 92%, in the aggregate,
of the Company's revenues. For the year ended August 31, 2003, DaimlerChrysler,
Ford, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz and BMW and their respective tier one
supplier directly accounted for 84%, in the aggregate, of the Company's
revenues.

      The Company typically sells its tooling systems to either OEMs directly or
to manufacturers of products under contract with such OEMs (tier one suppliers).
Sales efforts are conducted primarily by the Company's Vice President of Sales,
President, senior management and project management personnel. Frequent contact
is made with domestic and foreign automobile manufacturers, their purchasing
agents, and platform managers and tier one suppliers. Typically, the Company's
sales process begins when a package or request for quotation is received from
the tier one supplier or OEM. Generally, the Company recommends process and
design changes to improve the cost and quality of a product. The Company
maintains a computer database with historical information regarding dies it has
previously manufactured. This database assists the Company in quoting prices for
dies and enables it to respond to most quotation requests quickly and
accurately. If a customer decides to accept the Company's quotation, a purchase
order is issued subject to price adjustments for engineering changes as
requested by the customer. Bids generally are awarded based on technological
capability, price, quality and past performance.

BACKLOG AND SEASONALITY

      The Company's backlog of awarded contracts, which are all believed to be
firm, was approximately $2.5 million and $27 million as of August 31, 2004 and
2003, respectively. Subsequent to August 31, 2004, the Company received new
orders increasing its backlog to $7.2 million, as of December 12, 2004. The
Company expects all backlog contracts will be reflected in sales during fiscal
years ended August 31, 2005 and 2006. The Company's sales of stamping dies do
not follow a seasonal pattern; however, the timing of new model introductions
and existing model restyling tooling programs are dependent on DaimlerChrysler,
Ford, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and their respective introduction of
new models.

                                       5


COMPETITION

      Large, complex automotive stamping dies are manufactured primarily by
three supplier groups: a) domestic independent tool and die manufacturers, b)
foreign independent tool and die manufacturers, and c) captive or in-house tool
and die shops owned and operated by OEMs.

      The independent tool and die manufacturer industry has significant
barriers to entry, which can reduce competition in the large-scale die market.
These barriers include the highly capital intensive and technically complex
requirements of the industry. Additionally, attracting and retaining employees
skilled in the use of advanced design and manufacturing technology is a
multi-year process. A new competitor most likely would lack much of the
credibility and historical customer relationships that take years to develop.

      Finally, the OEMs maintain in-house, captive tool and die capacity in
order to meet a portion of their needs. General Motors, for example, maintains
the largest captive capacity and, based on estimates from various trade
publications, supplies an estimated 75-80% of its own die construction needs.
Ford produces approximately 50% and DaimlerChrysler 25% of their own respective
needs. Independent suppliers, like the Company, tend to have a competitive
advantage over the OEMs' in-house die shops due to the OEMs' higher cost
structure.

      With the advent of simultaneous engineering in the automobile industry,
proximity of the OEMs' design engineers may effect the placement of the die
manufacturer. However, foreign competition may have certain advantages over
domestic die manufacturers including lower capital costs, currency exchange
advantages, government assistance and lower labor costs.

SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

      The Company maintains relationships with DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General
Motors, Mercedes-Benz and BMW, which directly accounted for approximately 5%, in
the aggregate, of the Company's revenues in 2004. For the year ended August 31,
2004, DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz and BMW and their
respective tier one suppliers accounted for approximately 92%, in the aggregate,
of the Company's revenues.

EMPLOYEES

      The Company's work force consists of approximately 135 full-time
employees, of which approximately 30 are managerial and engineering personnel.
The balance consists of hourly employees engaged in manufacturing and indirect
labor support. Included among these hourly workers are approximately 85 skilled
tradesmen who are either journeymen tool and die makers or machinists. None of
the Company's employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. The
Company has not experienced any work stoppages and considers its relations with
its employees to be good. The Company has a discretionary contribution 401(K)
plan. The Company has no pension liabilities arising from any defined benefit
plan.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

      The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations concerning
emissions to the air, discharges to waterways, and generation, handling,
storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste materials. The Company
also is subject to other Federal and state laws and regulations regarding health
and safety issues. The Company believes that it is currently in material
compliance with applicable environmental and health and safety laws and
regulations.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

      The matters discussed in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations contain certain forward-looking
statements. For this purpose, any statements contained in this report that are
not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking
statements. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as "may," "will,"
"expect," "believe," "anticipate," or "continue," the negative or other
variation thereof, or comparable terminology, are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial
risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending upon
a variety of factors, including continued market demand for the types of
products and services produced and sold by the Company.

GENERAL OVERVIEW

      The Company is a designer and manufacturer of large scale, complex
stamping die systems used to form sheet metal parts. Most of the stamping die
systems, sold by the Company, are used in the high-speed production of
automobile and truck body parts such as doors, frames, structural components and
bumpers. A majority of the Company's sales are to DaimlerChrysler, Ford Motor
Company, General Motors Corporation, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and their tier one
suppliers of sheet metal stamped parts and assemblies.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations is based upon the Company's Financial Statements. These financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of
estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the
financial statements and related notes. The accounting policies that may involve
a higher degree of judgment, estimates and complexity include revenue
recognition using percentage of completion estimates and the assessment of asset
impairments. The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in its
estimates.

                                       9



      -     Revenue recognition - The Company recognizes revenue on time and
            material contracts utilizing the completed-contract method. Revenue
            is recognized on all other contracts utilizing the
            percentage-of-completion method. Under the completed-contract
            method, the contract is considered complete when all costs except
            for insignificant items have been incurred and has been approved by
            the customer. Under the percentage-of-completion method, estimated
            contract earnings are based on total estimated contract profits
            multiplied by the ratio of labor hours incurred to total estimated
            labor hours on the contract. Provisions for total estimated losses
            on contracts in process are recognized in the period such losses are
            determined. Changes in job performance, conditions and estimated
            profitability may result in revisions to costs and income and are
            recognized in the period such revisions are determined.

      -     Net book value of long-lived assets - The Company periodically
            reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets held and used.
            This review is performed using estimated future cash flows. If the
            carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered to be impaired,
            an impairment charge is recorded for the amount that the carrying
            value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

      In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 150, "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and
Equity." SFAS No. 150 requires certain financial instruments that embody
obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of both liabilities and
equity to be classified as liabilities. Many of these instruments previously
were classified as equity or temporary equity and as such, SFAS No. 150
represents a significant change in practice in the accounting for a number of
mandatory redeemable equity instruments and certain equity derivatives that
frequently are used in connection with share repurchase programs. SFAS No. 150
is effective for all financial instruments created or modified after May 31,
2003, and to other instruments at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a
significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

      In April, 2003, SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued and is effective for contracts
entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies
financial accounting and reporting of derivatives, including derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The
adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not have any impact on the Company's financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.

      In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure." SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS
No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" to provide alternative
methods of transition to SFAS No. 123's fair value method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation; however, it does not amend SFAS No. 123 to
require companies to account for employee stock options using the fair value
method. The statement also requires disclosure of the effects of an entity's
accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported
net income and earnings per share in the summary of significant accounting
policies in annual and interim financial statements. The disclosure provisions
of SFAS No. 148 were adopted on August 31, 2003. As allowed by SFAS No. 148, the
Company has not adopted the fair value method of accounting for stock options.

      In January 2003, FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities," an Interpretation of APB No. 50 ("FIN 46") and was
amended in December 2003. FIN 46 is effective in February 2003 for all new
variable interest entities created or acquired. For variable interest entities
created or acquired before February 2003, FIN 46 is effective in February 2004.
FIN 46 requires consolidation of a variable interest entity if a company's
variable interest absorbs a majority of the entity's losses or receives a
majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or both. The adoption of FIN
46 did not have any impact on the Company's financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business. During 2004, the Company
sustained a loss from operations of $7,363,027 and a net loss of $8,241,478.
This loss resulted in an accumulated deficit of $10,646,487 as of August 31,
2004. Further, the Company was not in compliance with the covenants of its
long-term loan agreement causing the Company's debt to be classified as current
in the financial statements. The Company's agreement was extended to December
31, 2004. The Company is currently negotiating a three month extension of such
agreement. These factors, among other things, raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do
not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that
might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

      The Company believes that the revolving line of credit and the funds
generated from operations, will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs
through fiscal 2005. However, depending on Company's primary lenders willingness
to extend the due date of the facility as well as the level of future sales,
terms of such sales, financial performance and cash flow of existing contracts,
such financing may not be sufficient to support operations. Therefore, the
Company may be required to seek additional sources of funding.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

      The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment if changes in
circumstances or the occurrence of events suggest the remaining value may not be
recoverable. An asset is deemed impaired and written down to its fair value if
estimated related total future undiscounted cash flows are less than its book
(carrying) value. The Company, in performing its evaluation of long-lived assets
for impairment, utilized financial projections for five future years including
total undiscounted cash flow. In developing the projections, the Company
estimated revenues for each year and estimated resulting margins based upon
various assumptions including future market pricing trends and historical
financial costs. The analysis concluded that the estimated total undiscounted
future cash flows were in excess of the carrying value of long-lived assets. Had
the analysis concluded that the total undiscounted future cash flows been below
the carrying value, an impairment charge of the difference between the carrying
value and the lower of the total discounted cash flows or fair value would have
been recorded.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included elsewhere
herein.

FISCAL 2004 COMPARED TO FISCAL 2003

Revenue. Total revenue decreased from approximately $34 million in 2003 to $25
million in 2004, a decrease of 28%. This decrease was a result of the Company
completing its significant tooling programs for a major European automaker for a
sports utility vehicle and a new "crossover" vehicle to be manufactured in the
United States. The Company's customer for these vehicles is the Tier 1 supplier
to Mercedes-Benz for these particular vehicles. During the fourth quarter, the
Company had significant difficulties in completing the contracts, which had a
severe negative effect on revenue, cost of sales, and related earnings. The
Company, due to many various circumstances, incurred significant cost overruns
on many of the parts under the contracts. Many of these cost overruns involve
customer timing changes, material specification changes and the Company
outsourcing the completion of many dies to meet customer deadlines. All of the
aforementioned issues resulted in the Company incurring approximately $4.0
million in additional outsourcing costs and $3.5 million in additional labor
costs. The Company has accrued $5.2 million of estimated losses on these
contracts and others as of August 31, 2004, and believes this reserve will be
adequate to complete the contracts. The outsourcing costs were incurred as a
result of the Company having certain "bottlenecks" in its production. These
bottlenecks were a result of changes to material specifications combined with an
increase in the number of engineering changes required. The material
specification changes involved customer changes from a grade of steel the
Company had previous experience with to a new grade of high-strength steel
which, not only had the Company had no experience working with, was also new to
the customer. As a result of this new material, the Company could not simulate
the flow of the steel in the dies. Due to the lack of historical data as to the
material

                                       11



flow, the Company, in some cases, had to re-cut the dies up to eight times to
get the part within specifications with this material. This created capacity
constraints in the Company's machining and tryout areas. As a result of these
constraints, the customer required that the Company utilize specified outside
die shops to complete certain dies, which were constructed internally. The
customer decided that the Company's internal capacity had become overburdened as
a result of the rework being performed by the Company to obtain part
specifications with the new high-strength steel. Had the Company not outsourced
this work, the customer may have cancelled the contracts and charged the Company
for all of the added costs incurred. In addition, the customer may have
discontinued the scheduled progress payments, which would have caused severe
cash-flow problems for the Company. Management took the position that by
outsourcing this work directly the added costs were better controlled and
prevented potential cash-flow difficulties.

Despite the aforementioned fourth quarter problems, the Company did realize an
overall profit on these two programs. The total amount of revenue on these
contracts was $43.0 million with a net margin of $0.2 million.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased from $30.7 million for 2003 to
$30.0 million for 2004. However, as a percent of sales, cost of goods sold
increased from 90.1% for 2003 to 121.7% for 2004. Direct costs (materials and
labor) decreased by $0.8 million, from $21.4 million for 2003 to $20.6 million
for 2004. Engineering expense remained consistent at $2.4 million for both 2003
and 2004. Lastly, of the cost of goods sold, manufacturing overhead remained
consistent at $7.0 million for 2004 versus $6.9 million for 2003. Additional
details of these changes in cost of sales for 2003 and 2004 are as follows:

      -     Direct materials expense decreased from $6.4 million for 2003 to
            $4.2 million for 2004 and as a percent of sales from 18.8% to 16.9%.
            This decrease was largely due to lower contract material
            requirements during 2004 as compared to 2003. Outside services
            expense increased from $9.4 million for 2003 to $9.7 million for
            2004 and increased as a percent of sales from 27.5% to 39.3%. Of the
            outsourced services expense for 2004, approximately $4.0 million of
            the $9.7 million was in excess of amounts estimated for certain jobs
            and created extensive cost overruns on those particular jobs as
            described in the aforementioned Revenue section.

      -     Direct labor expense increased from $5.7 million for 2003 to $6.7
            million for 2004 and as a percent of sales, direct labor increased
            from 16.7% to 27.3%. This change was a result of the Company
            incurring a 4.4% increase in direct labor hours, from 304,000 hours
            in 2003 to 318,000 in 2004. Of the total direct labor expense,
            regular or straight time increased by $690,000 and as a percent of
            sales increased from 11.0% for 2003 to 17.9% for 2004. Overtime
            expense increased from $1.9 million for 2003 to $2.3 million for
            2004 and as a percent of sales increased from 5.7% for 2003 to 9.4%
            for 2004. The Company incurred added labor costs of approximately
            $3.5 million related to the construction and buy-off difficulties
            noted above.

Selling and Administrative Expense. Selling and administrative expense for 2004
increased by $324,000 to $2,014,000 as compared to $1,690,000 for 2003. As a
percent of sales, selling and administrative expense increased from 5.0% for
2003 to 8.2% for 2004. This largely consisted of increases of $141,000 in
administrative and sales salaries, $79,000 in State of Michigan Single Business
Tax, $50,000 in Deferred Compensation expense and $38,000 in Public Company
expenses.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased from $779,000 for 2003 to $872,000
for 2004. This increase was largely due to the Company incurring additional
interest expense related to issuance of $3.0 million subordinated debt during
the fourth quarter of 2004.

FISCAL 2003 COMPARED TO FISCAL 2002

Revenue. Total revenue increased from approximately $14 million in 2002 to $34
million in 2003, an increase of 143%. This increase was a result of the Company
receiving significant tooling programs for the Mercedes-Benz M Class sports
utility vehicle and a new "crossover" vehicle yet to be introduced. The
Company's customer for these vehicles is the Tier 1 supplier to Mercedes-Benz
for these particular vehicles. For a portion of these tooling systems the
Company is performing engineering services and manages certain die manufacturing
subcontracted by the Company, with the Company being responsible for the
engineering and performance of these tools. During fiscal 2003, the Company
recorded approximately $9.4 million of outsourced revenue or 25% of total fiscal
2003 sales.

                                       12



Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold increased from $14.7 million for 2002 to
$30.7 million for 2003. However, as a percent of sales, cost of goods sold
decreased from 104.5% for 2002 to 90.1% for 2003. Direct costs (materials and
labor) increased by $14.6 million, from $6.8 million for 2002 to $21.4 million
for 2003. Engineering expense increased by $815,500 from $1.6 million for 2002
to $2.3 million for 2003. Lastly, of the cost of goods sold, manufacturing
overhead increased by $580,000 from $6.3 million for 2002 to $6.9 million for
2003. Additional details of these changes in cost of sales for 2002 and 2003 are
as follows:

      -     Direct materials expense increased from $2.4 million for 2002 to
            $6.4 million for 2003 and as a percent of sales from 16.8% to 18.8%.
            This increase was largely due to higher contract material
            requirements during 2003 as compared to 2002. Outside services
            expense increased from $923,000 for 2002 to $9.4 million for 2003
            and as a percent of sales from 6.6% to 27.5%. This increase was
            largely due to the Company incurring $7.3 million of expense related
            to its outsourced revenue. The balance of the outside services
            expense was due to sales volumes and corresponding increases in
            outsourcing certain machining, die patterns, laser cutting, heat
            treat and outside design services.

      -     Direct labor expense increased from $3.6 million for 2002 to $5.7
            million for 2003. However, as a percent of sales, direct labor
            decreased from 25.5% to 16.7%. This change was a result of the
            Company incurring a 56% increase in direct labor hours, from 189,000
            hours in 2002 to 294,000 in 2003. Of the total direct labor expense,
            regular or straight time increased by $909,000 however as a percent
            of sales, decreased from 20.1% for 2002 to 10.9% for 2003 due to
            increased sales volume. Overtime expense increased from $756,000 for
            2002 to $1.9 million for 2003, however as a percent of sales, only
            increased from 5.4% for 2002 to 5.7% for 2003.

      -     Engineering expense increased from $1.6 million, 11.1% of sales, for
            2002 to $2.4 million, 7.0% of sales, for 2003. This 50% increase was
            due to the Company's increase in awarded contracts during 2003 and
            the Company increasing the number of engineering personnel necessary
            to fulfill the design and project management portions of the
            contracts.

      -     Manufacturing overhead was $6.3 million or 44.9% of sales for 2002
            as compared to $6.9 million or 20.2% of sales for 2003. During 2003,
            increases in manufacturing overhead were largely due to a $326,000
            increase in vacation, holiday pay and payroll tax expenses and a
            $100,000 increase in medical insurance premiums. The decrease of
            approximately 50% of manufacturing overhead, as a percent of sales,
            was largely due to improved overhead absorption from sales
            increases.

Selling and Administrative Expense. Selling and administrative expense for 2003
remained consistent with 2002 at $1.7 million. As a percent of sales, selling
and administrative expense decreased from 11.8% for 2002 to 5.0% for 2003 due to
the increased sales volume. The largest selling and administrative expense
increases for 2003 included: $124,000 in supervision salaries and $39,000 in
directors and officers insurance premiums and director fees. These increases
were offset by decreases in computer maintenance expense.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased from $653,000 for 2002 to $779,000
for 2003. This increase was largely due to the Company incurring $230,000 of
debt issuance and guarantees amortization expense during 2003. These costs were
incurred in the Company's December 2002 refinancing.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX

The Company's effective income tax rates were 0% for the years ended August 31,
2002, 2003 and 2004. The Company had approximately $160,000 of alternative
minimum tax credits as of August 31, 2004, the use of which does not expire, and
federal net operating loss carryforwards of $6,511,000, which expire, if unused,
in fiscal 2021, 2022 and 2024. The Company has a valuation allowance of
$1,003,000 and $3,737,000 at August 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively, for net
deferred tax assets, which may not ultimately be realized.

                                       13



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's need for working capital increased during 2004 largely as a result
of the loss in the fourth quarter. For the year ended 2004, the Company utilized
approximately $6.7 million in operating activities. The Company financed these
needs through bank financing, issuance of subordinated debt and sale of common
stock for a total of $8.0 million from financing activities. The Company also
utilized $1.3 million of those proceeds in the acquisition of assets.

The Company's total bank debt as of August 31, 2004, is $15.7 million, all of
which is classified as short-term debt. As of August 31, 2004, the Company was
in default of its loan covenants with its lenders. As a result the Company has
negotiated a $10 million Revolving Line of Credit with a balance outstanding of
approximately $4.6 million (as of December 27, 2004), and term notes with an
aggregate outstanding balance of $1,835,100, expiring December 31, 2004. The
Revolving Line of Credit bears interest at the bank's prime rate plus 4.0
percent (an effective rate of 9.0% at November 30, 2004) and the term notes
bears interest at bank's prime rate plus 4.25 percent (an effective rate of
9.25% at November 30, 2004). The Company also has two subordinated debt notes
payable totaling $4,050,670 which includes $1,050,670 bearing interest at 11%
and $3,000,000 bearing interest at 14% plus deferred interest of 6%.

The Company believes that the revolving line of credit and the funds generated
from operations, will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs through
fiscal 2005. However, depending on Company's primary lenders willingness to
extend the due date of the facility as well as the level of future sales, terms
of such sales, financial performance and cash flow of existing contracts, such
financing may not be sufficient to support operations. Therefore, the Company
may be required to seek additional sources of funding.

INFLATION

The Company has no long-term, fixed price supply contracts. Although the average
set of dies takes approximately ten months from inception to shipment, any
significant direct material costs are incurred at the beginning of the die
manufacturing process. Historically, the Company has been able to reflect
increases in the prices of labor and material in its selling prices, however
under current industry pricing pressures, the Company is unsure if this will
continue to be the case in the future.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS & SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

             REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Riviera Tool Company
Grand Rapids, Michigan

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Riviera Tool Company as of
August 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended August 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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 Riviera Tool Company as of August 31, 2004
and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended August 31, 2004 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Riviera
Tool Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, at August 31, 2004, the Company was not in compliance with
its loan agreements, has losses from operations and a retained deficit that
raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 1 -- NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF BUSINESS.

      Riviera Tool Company (the "Company") designs, develops and manufactures
      custom and complex large scale metal stamping die systems used in the
      high-speed production of sheet metal stamped parts and assemblies for the
      automotive industry. These systems are mainly sold to DaimlerChrysler,
      Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and
      their tier one suppliers of sheet metal stamped parts and assemblies.

USE OF ESTIMATES.

      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 and disclosure of contingent assets and
      liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
      amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although
      management believes the estimates are reasonable, actual results could
      differ from those estimates.

SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES.

      The most significant estimates made by the Company are in the
      determination and recognition of revenue on contracts in process.
      Management's best estimates of costs to complete are based on costs
      incurred, engineers' cost projections, experience with customers or
      particular die systems and other analyses. Although management's estimates
      are not expected to materially change in the near term, the costs the
      Company could ultimately incur could differ from the amounts estimated.

REVENUE RECOGNITION.

      The Company recognizes revenue on time and material contracts utilizing
      the completed-contract method. Revenue is recognized on all other
      contracts utilizing the percentage-of-completion method. Under the
      completed-contract method, the contract is considered complete when all
      costs have been incurred and the project has been approved by the
      customer. Under the percentage-of-completion method estimated contract
      earnings are based on total estimated contract profits multiplied by the
      ratio of labor hours incurred to total estimated labor hours on the
      contract. Provisions for total estimated losses on contracts in process
      are recognized in the period such losses are determined. Changes in job
      performance, conditions and estimated profitability may result in
      revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period such
      revisions are determined.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE.

      As of August 31, 2003 and 2004, the Company had no reserve for
      uncollectible accounts receivable and had $361,144 and $162,795 of
      unbilled accounts receivable (completed contracts for which revenue earned
      exceeds amounts billed), respectively.

INVENTORIES.

      Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method)
      or market.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT.

      Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is
      computed using the straight-line method over the useful life of the asset
      for financial reporting purposes as follows:

                                       20

      Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
      incurred. The Company capitalizes interest cost associated with
      construction in process. The amount of capitalized interest was $6,703, $0
      and $0 in 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS.

      The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment if changes in
      circumstances or the occurrence of events suggest the remaining value may
      not be recoverable. An asset is deemed impaired and written down to its
      fair value if estimated related total future undiscounted cash flows are
      less than its book (carrying) value. The Company, in performing its
      evaluation of long-lived assets for impairment, utilized financial
      projections for five future years including total undiscounted cash flow.
      The analysis concluded that the estimated total undiscounted future cash
      flows were in excess of the carrying value of long-lived assets. Had the
      analysis concluded that the total undiscounted future cash flows been
      below the carrying value, an impairment charge of the difference between
      the carrying value and the lower of the total discounted cash flows or
      fair value would have been recorded.

PERISHABLE TOOLING.

      Perishable tools are generally used up over five years, reported at cost
      as non-current assets in the balance sheet and amortized evenly over their
      useful lives.

INCOME TAXES.

      Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences
      between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities
      that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such
      deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based upon
      enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences
      are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are
      established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts
      expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or
      refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in
      deferred tax assets and liabilities.

EARNINGS PER SHARE.

      Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing
      income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average common
      shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the
      potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to
      issue common stock were exercised.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION.

      The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
      ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation," and as
      permitted by this standard, will continue to apply the recognition and
      measurement principles prescribed under Accounting Principles Board
      Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", to its
      stock-based compensation (see Note 10). No stock-based compensation cost
      is reflected in net income (loss), as all options granted under its plan
      had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common
      stock on the date of grant. Had the Company applied the fair value
      recognition principles of SFAS No. 123, there would be no impact on net
      income (loss) as of August 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004.

NOTE 1 -- NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

BUSINESS SEGMENT REPORTING.

      Based on the nature of its operations and products, the Company considers
      its business to be a single operating segment.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS.

      SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and
      Hedging Activities" was issued in April 2003 and is effective for
      contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. SFAS No. 149
      amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting of derivatives,
      including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for
      hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
      Instruments and Hedging Activities." The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not
      have any impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations
      or cash flows.

      SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
      Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity" was issued in May 2003 and
      is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May
      31, 2003. SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for classification and
      measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both
      liabilities and equity. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have any
      impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash
      flows.

      Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 46,
      "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," an Interpretation of APB
      No. 50 ("FIN 46") was issued in January 2003 and was amended in December
      2003. FIN 46 is effective in February 2003 for all new variable interest
      entities created or acquired. For variable interest entities created or
      acquired before February 2003, FIN 46 is effective in February 2004. FIN
      46 requires consolidation of a variable interest entity if a company's
      variable interest absorbs a majority of the entity's losses or receives a
      majority of the entity's expected residual returns, or both. The adoption
      of FIN 46 did not have any impact on the Company's financial position,
      results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 2 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
      concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
      satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. During 2004,
      the Company sustained a loss from operations of $7,363,027 and a net loss
      of $8,241,478. This loss resulted in an accumulated deficit of $10,646,486
      as of August 31, 2004. Further, the Company was not in compliance with the
      covenants of its long-term loan agreement causing the Company's debt to be
      classified as current in the financial statements. These factors, among
      other things, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
      continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
      adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
      asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might
      be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

      The Company believes that the revolving line of credit and the funds
      generated from operations, will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash
      needs through fiscal 2005. However, depending on Company's primary lenders
      willingness to extend the due date of the facility as well as the level of
      future sales, terms of such sales, financial performance and cash flow of
      existing contracts such financing not be sufficient to support operations.
      Therefore, the Company may be required to seek additional sources of
      funding.

NOTE 3 -- SALES TO MAJOR CUSTOMERS

Outstanding account receivables from three of these customers represented
approximately 78 percent and 90 percent at August 31, 2003 and 2004 of the total
accounts receivable, respectively. On December 6, 2004, the Company's largest
customer, Oxford Automotive filed for protection under Chapter XI of the United
States Bankruptcy Court. As of August 31, 2004, Oxford Automotive represents
$10.9 million or 83% of the Company's accounts receivable. The Company had
previously filed perfected security interests on all tools manufactured for this
customer. As a result of these liens the Company, Oxford and Mercedes-Benz U.S.
International, Inc. executed a Tri-party Tooling Agreement on May 24, 2004.
Under such agreement Mercedes-Benz directly pays the Company for tooling on the
behalf of Oxford. Subsequent to August 31, 2004, the Company has received
approximately $9.1 million of payments from Mercedes-Benz.

NOTE 9 -- OPERATING LEASES

On June 26, 2003, the Company renegotiated its operating lease for its
manufacturing and office facilities. The new noncancellable lease begins
November 1, 2003 and expires on October 31, 2018. The agreement provides for
annual lease payments plus an escalation of approximately $.14 per square foot
for the lease term. The Company has an option to renew this lease for an
additional 10-year term at a rate based upon the then prevailing market rates
for similar-type properties.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that rent expense related to
this type of lease be recognized ratably over the term of the lease. The
difference between the rent payments made and the amount of expense recognized
has been recorded as accrued lease expense (a liability). For the year ended
August 31, 2002, the lease expense exceeded cash payments made by $16,359. For
the year ended August 31, 2003, the cash payments made exceeded the lease
expense by $35,045. For the year ended August 31, 2004, the lease expense
exceeded the cash payments by $100,204.

The Company has various operating leases, including the noncancellable operating
lease noted above, for facilities that expire during the next 15 years. Rent
expense under these leases for the years ended August 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004
amounted to $1,075,186, $1,120,250 and $1,098,955, respectively.

The following is a schedule of future minimum rent payments required under
operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancellable lease terms in
excess of one year as of August 31, 2004.

NOTE 10 -- RETIREMENT PLANS

The Company has a profit-sharing plan that covers substantially all employees.
The plan includes a 401(k) deferred-compensation option. The plan, as
established, allows for discretionary contributions as determined annually by
the Company's Board of Directors. No discretionary contribution was made for the
years-ended August 31, 2002, 2003, and 2004. The Company also matches and
contributes up to 15 percent of the employees' contributions, up to 2% of an
employee's annual wage. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company, until further
notice, suspended its matching share of the employees contribution. The
Company's matching contributions to the plan for the years ended August 31,
2002, 2003 and 2004, amounted to $31,324, $0 and $0, respectively.

The Company has an Executive Deferred Compensation Plan with an officer who is
retiring effective December 31, 2004. Under the plan, upon the earlier of death
or termination of executive's employment with the Company on or after attainment
of age 65, the Company shall pay to the executive, his heirs and assigns a
retirement benefit equal to $50,000 per year for five years. The retirement
benefit will commence on the first day of the second month following the death
or termination of his employment with the Company on or after attainment of age
65. The retirement benefit shall continue with four additional payments of
$50,000 each. Death of the executive after the commencement of payments shall
not reduce or eliminate subsequent payments due. The Company has a key-man life
insurance policy for $250,000 on such executive. As of August 31, 2004, the
Company has recorded $216,474 as a liability for the Executive Deferred
Compensation Plan.

NOTE 11 -- STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan") was adopted by the
Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders on October 31, 1996. Under
the Option Plan, 250,000 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance and
are intended to qualify as incentive stock options under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended. Stock options granted to Company personnel under the
option plan are at exercise prices equal to the market value of the stock on the
date of grant. The options vest one year from the date of option grant and the
recipients must be employed by the Company at the time of exercise.

The Company's 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan (the "Key Option Plan") was
adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders on December
16, 1998. Under the Key Option Plan, 200,000 shares of Common Stock were
reserved for issuance and do not qualify as incentive stock options under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Stock options granted to Company
personnel and Directors under the option plan are at exercise prices equal to
the market value of the stock on the date of grant. The options vest one year
from the date of option grant and recipients must be employed by the Company at
the time of exercise.

As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-based Compensation," the
Company continues to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, which recognizes compensation expense under the intrinsic value method.
The compensation cost, estimated under the fair value-based method defined in
SFAS No. 123, was not significant.

A summary of the status of the Option Plan and Key Option Plan during the years'
presented is as follows (no stock options were granted previous to fiscal 1999
under the 1996 Stock Option Plan and the 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan):

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

      The members of the compensation committee during fiscal year ended 2004
were Thomas H. Highley, Richard V. Gillette and Dr. Jay S. Baron. Neither
Messrs. Highley, Gillette nor Dr. Baron were ever an officer or employee of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, and none of them had any relationship
requiring disclosure by the Company under Item 404 of Regulation S-K for the
fiscal year ended 2004.

                          COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

      The duty of the Committee is to recommend to the Board of Directors the
remuneration arrangements for Kenneth K. Rieth, President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, as well as grant stock options under the Company's 1996
Incentive Stock Option Plan, as amended, and the 1998 Key Employee Stock Option
Plan. The Company's Board of Directors has given Mr. Rieth the authority to set
the compensation for senior management.

COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

BASE SALARY

      The Committee reviews each officer's salary annually. In determining
appropriate salary levels, consideration is given to scope of responsibility,
experience, Company and individual performance as well as pay practices of other
companies relating to executives with similar responsibility.

                                      33


      In addition, with respect to the base salary of Mr. Rieth, the
Compensation Committee has acknowledged the longevity of Mr. Rieth's service to
the Company and its belief that Mr. Rieth is an excellent representative of the
Company within the industry. In assessing Mr. Rieth's compensation, the
committee engaged an independent firm to perform a review of his proposed
compensation. Upon completion of such review, the Board of Directors established
Mr. Rieth's base salary on April 25, 2003. This base compensation consists of a
regular payroll payment of $250,000 per year plus an annual bonus equal to 3.5%
of the Company's income from operations before such bonus expense. Messrs.
Canepa and Wood received a base salary of $140,000 and $150,000, respectively
for fiscal 2004.

BONUS AWARDS

      The Company's officers may be considered for annual cash bonuses, which
are awarded to recognize and reward corporate and individual performance based
on meeting specified goals and objectives. The plan in effect for fiscal 2004
for Mr. Rieth did not provide a bonus to Mr. Rieth. In determining a bonus to
Mr. Rieth, the Committee reviews compensation levels and financial results
available to it for chief executive officers for similarly sized companies as
well as those located near the Company's headquarters. Mr. Rieth recommends to
the Committee Messrs. Canepa's and Wood's bonus based on his review of corporate
and Messrs. Canepa's and Wood's individual performances as well as the
performance bonus the management team awards to employees of the Company other
than Messrs. Canepa, Wood and Rieth.

STOCK OPTIONS

      Under the Company's 1996 Incentive Stock Option Plan, as amended, stock
options may be granted to the Company's key employees including Messrs. Rieth,
Wood and Canepa. The number of options granted is determined by the subjective
evaluation of the person's ability to influence the Company's long-term growth
and profitability. For fiscal 2004, no stock options were issued under such
plan.

      Under the Company's 1998 Key Employee Stock Option Plan, stock options may
be granted to the Company's key employees and directors including Messrs. Rieth,
Baron, Highley Wood, Gillette and Canepa. The number of options granted is
determined by the subjective evaluation of the person's ability to influence the
Company's long-term growth and profitability. For fiscal 2004, no stock options
were issued under such plan.

      Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price
of the Common Shares on the date of grant. Since the value of an option bears a
direct relationship to the Company's stock price, it is an effective incentive
for employees to create value for shareholders. The Committee therefore views
stock options as an important component of its future compensation policy.
