"We are continuing to control our inventories with a reduction year to date of $1.1 million (before the impact of foreign currency movements and the Calzoni acquisition), with the majority of the reductions in raw and in-process inventory. Finished goods balances have remained relatively unchanged to date for 2000 as we are producing to customer demand. For the first six months of 2000 we have generated free cash of $6.4 million, after adjusting for currency impact and the Calzoni acquisition, in line with our forecasts and expectations. Cash net of debt at the end of the second quarter stands at $24.9 million, or $2.24 per diluted share, with virtually all of the cash required for the completion of the Calzoni acquisition generated in the second quarter, leaving us free to pursue other acquisitions."

Weir also added, "With a record order backlog we are going strong into the third quarter, with our only limitation being the historical shutdown shut·down
