The accompanying notes are an integral part of the condensed consolidated financial statements NEWCOR, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1. Accounting Policies BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the period. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for a full year. Certain amounts from the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. On February 25, 2002 (the "Petition Date"), Newcor and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Debtors" or "Newcor"), filed voluntary petitions for relief (the "Filing") under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court"). The Debtors are currently operating their businesses as debtors-in-possession in accordance with provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The Chapter 11 cases of the Debtors (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases") are being jointly administered under Case No. 02-10575 (MFW). The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 90-7 ("SOP 90-7"), "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code," and on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. However, as a result of the Filing, such realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities are subject to uncertainty. While operating as debtor-in-possession under the protection of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and subject to Bankruptcy Court approval or otherwise as permitted in the ordinary course of business, the Debtors, or some of them, may sell or otherwise dispose of assets and liquidate or settle liabilities for amounts other than those reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Further, a plan of reorganization would materially change the amounts and classifications reported in the consolidated historical financial statements. As reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements, "Liabilities Subject to Compromise" refers to Debtors' liabilities incurred prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases. This amount represents Newcor, Inc.'s estimate of known or potential pre-petition claims to be resolved in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases. Such claims remain subject to future adjustments. Adjustments may result from (1) negotiations; (2) actions of the Bankruptcy Court; (3) further developments with respect to disputed claims; (4) rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases; (5) the determination as to the value of any collateral securing claims; (6) proofs of claim; or (7) other events. Payment terms for those amounts will be established in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have filed schedules with the Bankruptcy Court setting forth the asset and liabilities of the Debtors. Differences between amounts recorded by the Debtors and claims filed by creditors will be investigated and resolved as part of the proceedings in the Chapter 11 Cases. No bar dates have been set for the filings of proofs of claim against the Debtors. Accordingly, the ultimate number and allowed amount of such claims are not presently known. COST IN EXCESS OF ASSIGNED VALUE OF ACQUIRED COMPANIES (GOODWILL) Effective January 1, 2002 the Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142. The pronouncement requires an impairment analysis be performed using various criteria to determine total value of the businesses acquired. The Company generally uses discounted cash flow as a measurement of enterprise value. As discussed Note 7, the Company was notified by a major customer, that it would not renew a sales contract for a certain assembly, which required an impairment charge of $29.1 million to be recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2002. In accordance with provisions of SFAS No. 142 and as of January 1, 2002, the Company completed its two step impairment analysis during the quarter ended June 30, 2002. This analysis resulted in an impairment loss at certain of its reporting units of approximately $8.6 million, which amount has not been previously reported and relates to the quarter ended March 31, 2002. For the three months ended June 30, 2001, our reported net loss and loss per share were $(2.6) million and $(0.52), respectively. Adjusted for non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142, the Company's reported net loss and loss per share would have been $(1.9) million and $(0.38), respectively, resulting in an increase of $0.7 million or $0.14 per share for the second quarter 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, our reported net loss and per share were $(6.5) million and $(1.31), respectively. Adjusted for non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142, the Company's reported net loss and loss per share would have been $(5.1) million and $(1.04), respectively, resulting in an increase of $1.4 million or $0.27 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Note 2. Reorganization The Debtors filed for relief under Chapter 11 to address liquidity issues resulting from the current economic downturn, which substantially and generally harmed the automotive supply and heavy truck industry. As a consequence of the Filing, all pending litigation against the Debtors is stayed automatically by section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and, absent further order of the Bankruptcy Court, no party may take any action to recover on pre-petition claims against the Debtors. In addition, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors may reject or assume pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases, and other parties to contracts or leases that are rejected may assert rejection damages claims as permitted by the Bankruptcy Code. A creditors' committee has been appointed as the official committee in the Chapter 11 Cases and, in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, will have the right to be heard on all matters that come before the Bankruptcy Court. Newcor expects that the appointed committee will play an important role in the Chapter 11 Cases and the negotiation of the terms of the Chapter 11 plan of reorganization. Newcor anticipates that substantially all liabilities of the Debtors as of the date of the Filing will be resolved under a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization to be proposed and voted on in the Chapter 11 Cases in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Although the Debtors intend to file and seek confirmation of such a plan, there can be no assurance as to when the Debtors will file such a plan, or that such a plan will be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and consummated. As provided by the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors have the exclusive right to propose a plan of reorganization within 120 days following the Petition Date and to solicit votes for such a plan for 180 days. The Debtors have been granted an extension of the exclusivity period for filing a plan of reorganization to August 26, 2002. If the Debtors fail to file a plan of reorganization during such period or any further extension thereof, or if such plan is not accepted by the requisite numbers of creditors and equity holders entitled to vote on the plan, other parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases may be permitted to propose their own plan(s) of reorganization for the Debtors. Newcor is unable to predict what the treatment will be of creditors and equity holders of the respective Debtors under any proposed plan of reorganization. The Bankruptcy Court may confirm a plan of reorganization only upon making certain findings required by the Bankruptcy Code, and a plan may be confirmed over the dissent of non-accepting creditors and equity security holders if certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met. The payment rights and other entitlements of pre-petition creditors and Newcor's shareholders may be substantially altered by any plan of reorganization confirmed in the Chapter 11 Cases. Pre-petition creditors may receive under a plan less than 100% of the face value of their claims, and the interests of Newcor's equity security holders may be substantially diluted or cancelled in whole or in part. As noted above, it is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases, the terms and provisions of any plan of reorganization, or the effect of the Chapter 11 reorganization process on the claims of the creditors of the Debtors or the interests of Newcor's equity security holders. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, schedules have been filed by the Debtors with the Bankruptcy Court setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Debtors as of the date of the Filing. Differences between amounts recorded by the Debtors and claims filed by creditors will be investigated and resolved as part of the proceedings in the Chapter 11 Cases. A date by which creditors must file proofs of claim against the Debtors was set for July 18, 2002. Accordingly, the ultimate number and allowed amount of such claims are presently being reviewed. As of the date hereof, the Debtors have received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to pay or otherwise honor certain of their pre-petition obligations, including employee wages, salaries, benefits and other employee obligations, pre-petition claims of critical vendors and certain other pre-petition claims including certain customer program and warranty claims. In addition, in connection with the Filing, the Debtors obtained approval from the Bankruptcy Court to use cash collateral and to borrow $3 million under a debtor-in-possession credit facility from Comerica Bank (the "DIP Financing"). The Company believes, based on information presently available to it, that the cash available from its operations and the DIP Financing will provide sufficient liquidity to allow it to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis for its financial statements are dependent upon, among other things, (i) the Company's ability to comply with the terms of the DIP Financing, cash collateral order and cash management order entered by the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, (ii) the ability of the Company to maintain adequate cash on hand, (iii) the ability of the Company to generate cash from operations, (iv) confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code, (v) the Company's ability to obtain profitable new business and (vi) the Company's ability to achieve profitability following such confirmation. The Company believes this filing with the United States Bankruptcy Court will materially change the future consolidated financial statements of the Company. Note 3. Inventory Inventories are summarized as follows:

Costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts in excess of related billings represents revenue recognized under the percentage of completion method in excess of amounts billed. Note 4. Comprehensive Income Other comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was zero, as the only component of other comprehensive income for these periods was the minimum pension liability adjustment which is determined on an annual basis at the end of each fiscal year. Note 5. Segment Reporting The Company is organized into three business segments: the Precision Machined Products segment, the Rubber and Plastic segment and the Special Machines segment. The Precision Machined Products segment produces transmission, powertrain and engine components and assemblies for the automotive, medium and heavy-duty truck, and agricultural vehicle industries. The Rubber and Plastic segment produces cosmetic and functional seals and boots and functional engine compartment products primarily for the automotive industry. The Special Machines segment designs and manufactures welding, assembly, forming, heat treating and testing machinery and equipment for the automotive, appliance and other industries. Other is primarily composed of corporate activities. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the Company. There are no intersegment sales and management does not allocate all corporate expenses to the segments. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on operating income from continuing operations. Information by operating segment is summarized below:

A reconciliation of operating income for reportable segments to consolidated operating income is as follows:

Note 6. Recent Pronouncement In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This Statement supercedes FASB Statement No. 121; Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Asset to be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. This standard applies to long-lived assets other than goodwill. It describes a probability-weighted cash flow estimation approach regarding the recovery of the carrying amount of long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2002 and the impact on the June 30, 2002 statement is not material. Note 7. Recent Developments The Company was notified in July 2002 that a major customer will not renew a sales contract for a certain assembly. The current contract expires in January 2003. Sales of that assembly were approximately 16% of total sales of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The lost contract resulted in an impairment charge in the three months ended June 30, 2002 of $29.1 million. Note 8. Credit Arrangements and Debt A summary of debt at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 is as follows:

*Amount included in liabilities subject to compromise in the balance sheet. The Company failed to make the required interest payment, due September 4, 2001 and March 1, 2002, on the Notes in the amount of approximately $12.2 million. As such, the Company caused an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with Noteholders and their legal representatives to restructure the Company's indebtedness. All of the Company's Notes have been classified as a current obligation on the Balance Sheet. In addition, the default on the Notes also caused a default on the Bank Facility, and as such, the total indebtedness under the Bank Facility has been classified as current. In September 1995, Rochester Gear, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Subsidiary"), entered into a loan agreement whereby $6,100 of limited obligation refunding revenue bonds were issued. These bonds mature on January 1, 2008 and are collateralized by the Subsidiary's land, building and equipment and guaranteed by the Company. The Company currently has received authorization from the Bankruptcy Court to enter into a DIP facility in the amount of $3.0 million, which has not been drawn upon as of June 30, 2002. Note 8. Condensed Consolidating Information The Notes and the Facility of Newcor, Inc. are guaranteed by all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Grand Machining Co., Newcor Technologies, Inc, Deco International, Inc., Turn-Matic Inc., Rochester Gear, Inc., and Plastronics Plus, Inc (the Guarantor Subsidiaries). The guarantee of the Notes and the Facility by the Guarantor Subsidiaries is full and unconditional. The following condensed financial information presents the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as if it accounted the Guarantor Subsidiaries on the equity method. Deferred income taxes are accounted for through intercompany accounts. NEWCOR, INC. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 (In thousands)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Sales of $49.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 decreased $0.9 million, or 1.8%, as compared with sales of $50.3 million for the same quarter of 2001. Sales for the Precision Machined Products segment increased $2.5 million, or 7.5%, to $36.1 million. The increase is primarily due to increased sales to the heavy-duty truck market of $2.9 million, or 25.4%, to $14.2 million as compared to $11.3 million in the first quarter of 2001. Automotive market sales declined $0.4 million, or 2.1%, to $17.0 million. Sales to the agricultural market were flat for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Sales for the Rubber and Plastic segment decreased $0.7 million, or 7.0%, from the same quarter in 2001. Sales for the Special Machines segment decreased $2.7 million, or 42.2%, to $3.7 million from $6.4 million in the first quarter of 2001. The decrease in the Special Machines segment is due to overall market decline in capital goods. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002 were $91.2 million, a decrease of $5.0 million, or 5.2%, compared with sales of $96.1 million for the same period in 2001. Sales in the Precision Machined Products segment increased $1.6 million to $68.0 million, due to sales increases in the heavy-duty market, offset slightly by lost sales in the automotive market at two locations of $1.0 million compared to the same period in 2001. Sales for the Rubber and Plastic segment were $18.1 million, a decrease $1.3 million, or 6.9%, due to sales decreases in the automotive market. Sales in the Special Machines segment were $5.0 million a decrease of $5.3 million, or 51.1% from the prior year. Gross margin was $8.4 million, or 16.9% of sales, for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 compared with $5.5 million, or 10.8% of sales, for the same period of 2001. In the Precision Machined Products segment the gross margin increased by $2.7 million due to increased sales in the heavy-duty market, cost reductions attributed to certain employee benefit plans and production improvements. In the Rubber and Plastics segments gross margin increased $0.4 million due to productivity improvements and cost reductions. Productivity improvements in all segments include salaried headcount reduction of approximately 23% at June 30, 2002 as compared with June 30, 2001. Gross margin was $12.6 million, or 13.8% of sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared with $9.2 million, or 9.6% of sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The increases in gross margin and gross margin percentage were primarily due to the increase in sales in the heavy-duty market in Precision Machined segment. Gross margin increase is also attributed to headcount reductions discussed above. Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased due to cost savings measures taken throughout the Company, primarily reduction of salaried headcount. Consolidated operating income for the second quarter of 2002 was $4.3 million, or 8.7% of sales compared with operating loss of $0.1 million, or 0.0% of sales for the same period one year ago. The increase in operating income was due primarily to the increase in gross margin and lower SG&A costs also noted above. The Company was notified in July 2002 that a major customer will not renew a sales contract for a certain assembly. The current contract expires in January 2003. Sales of that assembly were approximately 16% of total sales of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The lost contract resulted in an impairment charge in the three months ended June 30, 2002 of $29.1 million. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 increased to $5.0 million, or 5.5% of sales, excluding plant consolidation costs of $1.3 million, for all segments as noted in Note 5 Segment reporting, due to increases in sales and gross margin as noted above. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") were $9.0 million for the first six months ended June 30, 2002, excluding plant consolidation costs of $1.3 million. The Company's capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2002 were $0.2 million. The Company's changes in operating working capital had no significant impact on net cash. The Company accrued $2.2 million of professional fees to be paid in future periods and $2.9 million of interest relating to the subordinated debt, which is subject to compromise as a pre-petition obligation. Cash on hand at June 30, 2002 was $15.2 million. On February 25, 2002 (the "Petition Date"), Newcor and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Debtors"), filed voluntary petitions for relief (the "Filing") under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court"). The Debtors are currently operating their businesses as debtors-in-possession in accordance with provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The Chapter 11 cases of the Debtors (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases") are being jointly administered under Case No. 02-10575 (MFW). As of the date hereof, the Debtors have received approval from the Bankruptcy Court to pay or otherwise honor certain of their pre-petition obligations, including employee wages, salaries, benefits and other employee obligations, pre-petition claims of critical vendors and certain other pre-petition claims including certain customer program and warranty claims. In addition, in connection with the Filing, the Debtors obtained approval from the Bankruptcy Court to use cash collateral and to borrow $3 million under a debtor-in-possession credit facility from Comerica Bank (the "DIP Financing"). The Company believes, based on information presently available to it, that the cash available from its operations and the DIP Financing will provide sufficient liquidity to allow it to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis for its financial statements are dependent upon, among other things, (i) the Company's ability to comply with the terms of the DIP Financing, cash collateral order and cash management order entered by the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, (ii) the ability of the Company to maintain adequate cash on hand, (iii) the ability of the Company to generate cash from operations, (iv) confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code, (v) the Company's ability to obtain profitable new business and (vi) the Company's ability to achieve profitability following such confirmation. Prior to the Filing, on December 19, 2001, the Company, in connection with its Pre-Petition Bank Facility with Comerica Bank, had entered into a Forbearance Agreement in which certain restrictive covenants were agreed to by Comerica Bank and the Company. These covenants included a limit on the revolving credit loan beginning at $10.0 million as of December 19, 2001, and increasing to $13.5 million on February 15, 2002. In addition, the Agreement required certain appraisals be completed prior to March 1, 2002, as well as a definitive agreement with the Company's debenture holders be in place as of March 1, 2002. As of February 25, 2002, the Filing date, the Company had $21.1 million of secured debt with Comerica Bank. The secured debt included $12.5 million on the Revolving Credit Loan, $2.5 million on a term loan and $6.1 million under a certain industrial revenue bond obligation related to one of the Company's facilities. These bonds are secured under a Repurchase Agreement obligating Comerica Bank upon an event of default to repurchase the bonds. The Company failed to make the required interest payment, due September 4, 2001 and on March 1, 2002, on the Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") in the amount of approximately $12.2 million. As such, the Company caused an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture. The Company is currently engaged in discussions with Noteholders and their legal representatives to restructure the Company's indebtedness. As such, all of the Company's Notes have been classified as a current obligation, subject to compromise, on the balance sheet at March 31, 2002. In addition, the default on the Notes also caused a default on the Bank Facility, and as such, the total indebtedness under the Bank Facility has been classified as current. The Company's ability to make the scheduled principal payments, or to pay the interest, or to refinance the indebtedness, including the Notes, or to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on the outcome of its bankruptcy proceeding and its future performance, which to a certain extent is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative regulatory and other factors that are beyond its control. In addition, a plan of reorganization related to the Filing has not yet been filed with the Court, nor has a definitive agreement been entered into with the holders of the Notes, whose claims will be a significant factor in the plan of reorganization. The results of the reorganization and the future cash flows and the ability to raise funds cannot be determined until such plan of reorganization is confirmed and the Company concludes the Chapter 11 bankruptcy process. The Company believes this filing with the United States Bankruptcy Court will materially change the future consolidated financial statements of the Company. As a result of the use of cash collateral and the DIP Financing on February 28, 2002 certain changes in the schedule of payments are required by the Company which were not in effect at December 31, 2001. The effect of the Filing and subsequent plan of reorganization to be filed with the Court, as it relates to the payment requirements scheduled, cannot be ascertained at this time. The table below reflects contractual commitments in the cash collateral order as of June 30, 2002:

*Comerica Bank can accelerate payment under the related letter of credit. **Liabilities not on the balance sheet subject to compromise The Company has not recognized tax benefits relating to current operating losses and loss carryforwards since realization of these tax benefits is not assured. The Filing and the related tax effect of the restructuring of the Company's debt obligations may have a negative effect on the tax carrying value of certain assets. No assurance can be made as to the actual tax basis of such assets and the related effect on the Company's effective tax rate until a plan of reorganization is confirmed by the Creditors and approved by the Court. No dividends were declared or paid during 2002 and 2001. CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS UNDER THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 Statements contained in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section constitute "forward-looking statements" within the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those included in or suggested by such forward-looking statements, including without limitation: the outcome of the proceeding in United States Bankruptcy Court, the cyclical nature of the industries served by the Company, all of which have encountered significant downturns in the past; the level of production by and demand from the Company's principal customers, upon which the Company is substantially dependent, including the three major domestic automobile manufacturers; whether, when and to what extent expected orders materialize; the impact on the Company of actions by its competitors, some of which are significantly larger and have greater financial and other resources than the Company. All forward-looking statements in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section are qualified by such factors. The Company disclaims any obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. NEWCOR, INC. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
