Second Quarter Segment Results

The following segment discussion excludes the impact of discontinued operations.

Industrial Components net sales in the second quarter 2004 of $195.5 million were 13% above $172.6 million in the second quarter 2003. Second quarter 2004 net sales at Carlisle Tire & Wheel Company were 13% above the second quarter 2003 as a result of increased sales across all product lines, with most of the increase attributable to sales of ATV (1) (Advanced TV) An early name for the digital TV standard proposed by the Advisory Committee on Advanced Television Service (ACATS).

") of $21.9 million were 9% above $20.1 million in the second quarter 2003. The earnings results were disappointing and reflect the increases for steel in the wheel business and oil-based commodities used in the tire manufacturing process. Selling price increases have been implemented at Carlisle Tire & Wheel, but the financial impact of the increases has not been sufficient to fully offset the continuing rise in raw material costs occurring in the global economy.

Construction Materials net sales of $187.5 million in the second quarter were 21% above the second quarter 2003 net sales of $154.4 million with improved sales in all product lines, especially in North American North American

Automotive Components net sales of $50.3 million in the second quarter 2004 were 3% above the second quarter 2003 of $48.9 million. Although North American vehicle production was down in the second quarter 2004 versus the second quarter 2003, new programs at a few of Carlisle Engineered Products' major automotive customers accounted for the increase in net sales. The $(2.0) million EBIT loss in the second quarter 2004 compares to earnings of $2.6 million in the second quarter 2003. Approximately $3.4 million in losses for the segment were the result of excess manufacturing and inspection costs caused by the transfer of defective defective adj. not being capable of fulfilling its function, ranging from a deed of land to a piece of equipment.

Second quarter 2004 net sales in the Specialty Products segment of $37.7 million were 4% above $36.4 million in the second quarter 2003.

General Industry net sales of $129.7 million in the second quarter were 29% above $100.3 million in the second quarter 2003.

Tensolite net sales were 26% above the second quarter 2003 due to increased sales in all their product lines, with most of the increase in sales of high density/high speed, RF/Microwave and general assembly products. Carlisle Walker net sales in the second quarter 2004 were 7% below the second quarter 2003 as a result of lower sales in the equipment group.
