P&F and each of its subsidiaries are herein referred tocollectively as the “Company.” In addition, the words “we”, “our” and “us” refer to the Company. The Company operates in two primary lines of business, orsegments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”). Tools The Company conducts its Tools business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”), which in turncurrently operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc.(“Hy-Tech”). During the third quarter of 2014, the Company acquired Exhaust Technologies Inc. (“ETI”) and Universal Air Tool Company Limited (“UAT”).Both ETI and UAT are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Florida Pneumatic, and unless otherwise indicated, the operations and results of operations of FloridaPneumatic herein include ETI and UAT as of the respective dates such companies were acquired. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2014, the Companyacquired substantially all the assets of Air Tool Service Company (“ATSCO”), through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech, and unless otherwiseindicated, the operations and results of operations of Hy-Tech herein include ATSCO as of the date the business was acquired. Florida Pneumatic Florida Pneumatic imports and sells pneumatic hand tools, most of which are of its own design, primarily to the retail, industrial and automotivemarkets. This line of products includes sanders, grinders, drills, saws and impact wrenches. These tools are similar in appearance and function to electric handtools, but are powered by compressed air, rather than directly by electricity. Air tools, as they are more commonly referred to, generally are less expensive tooperate, offer better performance and weigh less than their electrical counterparts. Florida Pneumatic imports approximately seventy-five types of pneumatichand tools, most of which are sold at prices ranging from $50 to $1,000, under the names “Florida Pneumatic”, “Universal Tool,” AIRCAT or NITROCAT, aswell as under the trade names or trademarks of several private label customers. These products are sold to retailers, distributors, and private label customersthrough in-house sales personnel and manufacturers’ representatives. Users of Florida Pneumatic’s hand tools include industrial maintenance and productionstaffs, do-it-yourself mechanics, automobile mechanics and auto body personnel. During 2014, Florida Pneumatic purchased approximately 46% of its pneumatic tools from China, 53% from Taiwan and 1% from Japan andEurope. Florida Pneumatic performs final assembly on certain of its pneumatic tools at its factory in Jupiter, Florida. Florida Pneumatic also markets, through its Berkley Tool division (“Berkley”), a product line which includes pipe and bolt dies, pipe taps,wrenches, vises and stands, pipe and tubing cutting equipment, hydrostatic test pumps, and replacement electrical components for a widely-used brand ofpipe cutting and threading machines. Florida Pneumatic markets Berkley’s products through industrial distributors and contractors. Florida Pneumaticsources its Berkley product line from China and Israel, as well as domestic sources. Florida Pneumatic also assembles and markets a line of compressor airfilters, for which it imports components from Mexico. There are redundant supply sources for nearly all products purchased. The primary competitive factors in the industrial pneumatic tool market are quality, breadth and availability of products, customer service andtechnical support. The primary competitive factors in the pneumatic hand tool market are price, service and brand-name awareness. The primary competitivefactors in Berkley’s business are price and service. Florida Pneumatic’s products are sold off the shelf. Florida Pneumatic’s retail business generally tends topeak during late summer and early fall, whereas all other markets are not seasonal. On July 1, 2014, Florida Pneumatic acquired ETI, a developer and distributor of pneumatic tools, through a merger between a newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of Florida Pneumatic and ETI. As a result, Florida Pneumatic now markets and distributes the AIRCAT and NITROCAT brand of pneumatictools. These tools are sold primarily to the automotive market. Immediately after the completion of the acquisition, ETI’s business was relocated into andbegan operating out of the Jupiter, Florida facility. On July 29, 2014, Florida Pneumatic acquired all of the outstanding shares of UAT, a distributor of pneumatic tools. UAT, located in HighWycombe, England, markets pneumatic tools to the automotive market sector primarily in the United Kingdom and Ireland. This acquisition provides theCompany with direct entry into the European pneumatic tool market for the Company’s entire suite of air tool products. 4Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Under the ATP brand, Hy-Techproduces and sells over sixty types of pneumatic tools, which include impact wrenches, grinders, drills, and motors that are sold at prices ranging from $450to $28,000. Further, it also manufacturers tools to customer unique specifications. Users of ATP parts and tools include refineries, chemical plants, powergeneration facilities, heavy construction enterprises, and oil and mining companies. In addition, Hy-Tech manufactures an extensive line of pneumatic toolreplacement parts that are sold to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), as well as competitively. It also manufactures and distributes high pressurestoppers for hydrostatic testing of fabricated pipe under the “Thaxton” brand name. It also produces a line of siphons under the “Eureka” name. Other than aline of sockets sold under the “OZAT” brand name that are imported from Israel, all Hy-Tech products are made in the United States of America. On August 13, 2014, a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech, acquired substantially all of the assets comprising the business ofATSCO, an Ohio-based corporation engaged in the design, manufacture and distribution of pneumatic tools and parts. Following a transition period thatlasted into the first quarter of 2015, all ATSCO products are manufactured in Cranberry, PA. Hy-Tech products are sold through its in-house sales force as well as manufacturer representatives. Hy-Tech’s products are sold off the shelf and alsoare produced to customer’s specifications. The business is not seasonal but may be subject to periodic schedule changes in refineries, power generation and chemical plants. The primarycompetitive factors in the industrial pneumatic tool market are quality, breadth and availability of products, customer service and technical support. Hardware We conduct our Hardware business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”). Countrywide conducts itsbusiness operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”). Nationwide Nationwide is a developer, importer, and manufacturer of fencing hardware, patio products, and door and window accessories including rollers,hinges, window operators, sash locks, custom zinc castings and door closers. Nationwide’s products are sold through in-house sales personnel andindependent manufacturers’ representatives to distributors, dealers, retailers and OEM customers. End users of Nationwide’s products include contractors,home builders, pool and patio enclosure contractors, plumbers, OEM/private label customers and general consumers. Nationwide currently out-sources themanufacturing of approximately 98% of its product with several overseas factories located in China and Taiwan, while retaining design, quality control, andpatent and trademark control. There are redundant supply sources for most products. Nationwide manufactures approximately 2% of its products soldincluding rollers, hinges and pool enclosure products at its facility in Tampa, Florida. Nationwide also provides value-add services for the entire product linewith local packaging, kitting, rework and fabrication operations performed in its Tampa location. Nationwide’s sales are moderately seasonal, with revenues typically increasing with home construction and remodeling activity, which generallyoccurs during the spring and summer months. The majority of Nationwide’s products are sold off the shelf. The primary competitive factors affectingNationwide are quality, breadth of products and availability of products, customer service and technical support. Its products are sold off the shelf. Nationwide marketed a Kitchen and Bath product line. However, in November 2013, it sold to an unrelated third party, all inventory, intangiblesand certain fixed assets attributable to its Kitchen and Bath product line. 5Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

In addition to the factors affecting specific business operations identified inconnection with the description of these operations and the financial results elsewhere in this report, the following factors, among others, could adverselyaffect our business, including our results of operations or financial position: •Substantial debt and debt service requirements. The amount of our debt could have important consequences. For example, it could: increaseour vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; limit our ability to fund future capital expenditures, working capital andother general corporate requirements; require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make interest and principalpayments on our debt; limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business; place us at a competitive disadvantagecompared with competitors that have less debt; and limit our ability to borrow additional funds, even when necessary to maintain adequateliquidity. •Borrowing and compliance with covenants under our credit facility. Our credit facility contains affirmative and negative covenants includingfinancial covenants, and default provisions. A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under our credit agreement. Upon theoccurrence of an event of default under our current credit agreement, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding to beimmediately due and payable and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If the lenders were to accelerate the repayment ofborrowings, we may not have sufficient assets to repay our asset based credit facility and our other indebtedness. Also, should there be an eventof default, or a need to obtain waivers following an event of default, we may be subject to higher borrowing costs and/or more restrictivecovenants in future periods. Further, the amount available for borrowing under our asset-based revolving loan facility is subject to a borrowingbase, which is determined taking into account, among other things, our accounts receivable, inventory and machinery and equipment.Fluctuations in our borrowing base impact our ability to borrow funds pursuant to the revolving loan facility. •Significant volatility and disruption in the global capital and credit markets. Volatility in the global capital and credit markets has in recentyears resulted in a tightening of business credit and liquidity, a contraction of consumer credit, business failures, increased unemployment anddeclines in consumer confidence and spending. If global economic and financial market conditions deteriorate or remain weak for an extendedperiod of time, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In particular, lower consumerspending may result in reduced demand and orders for certain of our products, order cancellations, lower revenues, increased inventories, andlower gross margins. Further, if our customers experience difficulty obtaining financing in the capital and credit markets to purchase ourproducts, this could result in further reduced orders for our products, order cancellations, inability of customers to timely meet their paymentobligations to us, extended payment terms, higher accounts receivable, reduced cash flows, greater expense associated with collection effortsand increased bad debt expense; and a severe financial difficulty experienced by our customers may cause them to become insolvent or ceasebusiness operations. •The strength of the retail economy in the United States and abroad. Our business is subject to economic conditions in major markets in whichwe operate, including recession, inflation, deflation, general weakness in retail, industrial, and housing markets, as well as the exposure toliabilities under anti-corruption laws in various countries, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, currency instability, transportationdelays or interruptions, sovereign debt uncertainties and difficulties in enforcement of contract and intellectual property rights, as well asnatural disasters. The strength of such markets is a function of many factors beyond our control, including interest rates, employment levels,availability of credit and consumer confidence. •Supply chain disruptions. Any difficulty or inability on the part of manufacturers of our products or other participants in our supply chain inobtaining sufficient financing to purchase raw materials or to finance general working capital needs or their inability to obtain raw materialsdue to shortages or other factors, may result in delays or non-delivery of shipments of our products. Additionally, material increases in rawmaterial commodity prices could further adversely affect our results of operations and financial position; Our foreign suppliers may encounterinterruption in their ability to continue to provide us with products on a short-term or long-term basis. Although we believe that there areredundant sources available and maintain multiple sources for most of our products, there may be costs and delays associated with securingsuch sources and there can be no assurance that such sources would provide the same quality of product at similar prices. •Our ability to maintain mutually beneficial relationships with key customers. We have several key customers, two of which collectivelyaccounted for approximately 35.3% of our 2014 consolidated revenue. Loss of key customers or a material negative change in our relationshipswith our key customers (including as a result of a negative change in the financial position of such key customers) could have a materialadverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial position. 7Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely. The user assumes all risks for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information,except to the extent such damages or losses cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law. Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. •Adverse changes in currency exchange rates A majority of our products are manufactured outside the United States, a portion of which arepurchased in the local currency. As a result, we are exposed to movements in the exchange rates of various currencies against the United Statesdollar which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. We believe our most significant foreign currencyexposures are the Taiwan dollar (“TWD”) and the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). Purchases from Chinese sources are made in U.S. dollars(“USD”). However, if the RMB were to be revalued against the dollar, there could be a significant negative impact on the cost of our products.Further, the reporting currency for our consolidated financial statements is the USD. Certain of the company’s assets, liabilities, expenses andrevenues are denominated in currencies other than the USD. In preparing our Consolidated Financial Statements, those assets, liabilities,expenses and revenues are translated into USDs at applicable exchange rates. Increases or decreases in exchange rates between the USD andother currencies affect the USD value of those items, as reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Substantial fluctuations in the valueof the USD could have a significant impact on the company’s financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, cash generated innon-U.S. jurisdictions may be difficult to repatriate to the United States in a tax-efficient manner. •Impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill. The inability of certain of our subsidiaries to generate future cash flows sufficient to support therecorded amounts of goodwill, other intangible assets and other long-lived assets related to those subsidiaries could result in future impairmentcharges. •Unforeseen inventory adjustments or changes in purchasing patterns. We make purchasing decisions based upon a number of factorsincluding an assessment of market needs and preferences, manufacturing lead times and cash flow considerations. To the extent that ourassumptions result in inventory levels being too high or too low, there could be a material adverse effect on our business, results of operationsor financial position. •Market acceptance of products. There can be no assurance that the market continues its acceptance of the products we introduced in recentyears or will accept new products (including the introduction of products into new geographic markets) introduced or scheduled forintroduction in 2015. There can also be no assurance that the level of sales generated from these new products or geographic markets relative toour expectations will materialize. •Competition. The markets in which we sell our products are highly competitive on the basis of price, quality, availability, post-sale service andbrand-name awareness. A number of competing companies are well-established manufacturers that compete on a global basis. •Price reductions. Price reductions taken by us in response to customer and competitive pressures, as well as price reductions or promotionalactions taken in order to drive demand, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial position. •Interest rates. Interest rate fluctuations and other capital market conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results ofoperations or financial position. •Litigation and insurance. The effects of litigation and product liability exposure, as well as other risks and uncertainties described from timeto time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and our public announcements could have a material adverse effect on ourbusiness, results of operations or financial position. Further, while we maintain insurance policies to protect against most potential exposures,events may arise against which we may not be adequately insured. •Retention of key personnel. Our success depends to a significant extent upon the abilities and efforts of our key personnel. The loss of theservices of any of our key personnel or our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel in the future could have a material adverse effecton our business, results of operations or financial position. 8Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely. The user assumes all risks for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information,except to the extent such damages or losses cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law. Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. •Acquisition of businesses. Part of our business strategy is to opportunistically acquire complementary businesses and dispose of non-complementary businesses, which involve risks that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results ofoperations. These risks include:· Loss of customers of the acquired businesses;· Inability to integrate successfully the acquired businesses’ operations;· Inability to coordinate management and integrate and retain employees of the acquired businesses;· Difficulties in implementing and maintaining consistent standards, controls, procedures, policies and information systems;· Failure to realize anticipated synergies, economies of scale or other anticipated benefits, or to maintain operating margins;· Strain on our personnel, systems and resources, and diversion of attention from other priorities;· Incurrence of additional debt and related interest expense;· Unforeseen or contingent liabilities of the acquired businesses; and· Large write-offs or write-downs, or the impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets. •Regulatory environment. We cannot anticipate the impact of changes in laws and regulations, including changes in accounting standards,taxation requirements, including tax rate changes, new tax laws and revised tax law interpretations, and environmental laws, in both domesticand foreign jurisdictions. Increased legislative and regulatory activity and burdens, and a more stringent manner in which they are applied,could significantly impact our business and the economy as a whole. For example, the Affordable Care Act (the “ACA”), which was adopted in2010 and is being phased in over several years, significantly affects the provision of both health care services and benefits in the United States;the ACA may impact our cost of providing our employees and retirees with health insurance and/or benefits, and may also impact various otheraspects of our business. The ACA did not have a material impact on our fiscal 2014 or prior financial results; however, we are continuing toassess the impact of the ACA on our health care benefit costs. Further, financial services businesses of all kinds are subject to increasingregulation and enforcement. In addition to potentially increasing the costs of doing business due to compliance obligations, new laws andregulations, or changes to existing laws and regulations, as well as the enforcement thereof, may affect the relationships between creditors anddebtors, inhibit the rights of creditors to collect amounts owed to them, expand liability for certain actions or inactions, or limit the types offinancial products or services offered, any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operationsand cash flows. Failure to comply with any of these laws or regulations could also result in penalties and damage to our reputation, and/or theincurrence of remediation costs. These developments, and other potential future legislation and regulations, as well as the increasingly strictregulatory environment, may also adversely affect the customers to which, and the markets into which, we sell our products, and increase ourcosts and otherwise negatively affect our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition, including in ways that cannot yetbe foreseen. •The threat of terrorism and related political instability and economic uncertainty. The threat of potential terrorist attacks on the United Statesand throughout the world and political instability has created an atmosphere of economic uncertainty in the United States and in foreignmarkets. Our results may be impacted by the macroeconomic effects of those events. Also, a disruption in our supply chain as a result of terroristattacks or the threat thereof may significantly affect our business and its prospects. In addition, such events may also result in heighteneddomestic security and higher costs for importing and exporting shipments of components and finished goods. Any of these occurrences mayhave a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flow or results in any reporting period. •Information technology system failures and attacks could harm our business. Our business is dependent on the efficient functioning of ourinformation technology systems and operations, which are vulnerable to damage or interruption from such factors as fires, natural disasters,telecommunications failures, computer viruses and worms, hacking, software defects, as well as human error. Despite our precautions, problemscould result in interruptions in services and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. •Unforeseen events. We cannot anticipate the impact of unforeseen events, including but not limited to war and pandemic disease, on economicconditions and consumer confidence in our business. The risk factors described above are not intended to be all-inclusive. There can be no assurance that we have correctly identified and appropriatelyassessed all factors affecting our business or that the publicly available and other information with respect to these matters is complete and correct.Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial also may adversely impact us.

Properties Florida Pneumatic owns a 72,000 square foot plant facility located in Jupiter, Florida. Its UAT subsidiary leases a 3,100 square foot facility from anon-affiliated lessor in High Wycombe, United Kingdom. This facility houses UAT’s warehouse / distribution, as well as its office needs. The lease expires in2019 and contains a five-year renewal clause. Hy-Tech owns a 51,000 square foot plant facility located in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania and leases a 10,000 square foot facility located inPunxsutawney, Pennsylvania. This lease expires in 2021 and presently does not have a renewal clause. Countrywide owns a 56,250 square foot plant facility located in Tampa, Florida in which Nationwide conducts its business. Countrywide leases partof the facility to a non-affiliated tenant. Each facility described above either provides adequate space for the operations of the respective subsidiary for the foreseeable future or can bemodified or expanded to provide some additional space. The three owned properties described above are subject to mortgages and therefore pledged as collateral against the Company’s credit facility,which is discussed further in Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Liquidity and Capital Resources and Notes to Financial Statements. The Company’s executive office of approximately 5,000 square feet is located in an office building in Melville, New York and is leased from a non-affiliated landlord. This lease expires in 2018, however, effective April 1, 2015, the Company can, at its option, terminate giving twelve months writtennotice. ITEM 3.

Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities Our Class A Common Stock trades on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol PFIN. The range of the high and low closing sales prices for ourClass A Common Stock during the last two years were as follows: 2014 High Low First Quarter $7.81 $7.00 Second Quarter 8.54 7.14 Third Quarter 8.29 7.31 Fourth Quarter 8.18 7.70 2013 High Low First Quarter $9.00 $6.92 Second Quarter 9.01 7.21 Third Quarter 8.86 6.90 Fourth Quarter 7.85 6.26 As of March 20, 2015, there were approximately 1,100 holders of record of our Class A Common Stock and the closing sale price of our stock asreported by the Nasdaq Global Market was $7.76. We have not declared any cash dividends on our Class A Common Stock since our incorporation in 1963and we currently have no plans to declare any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities On October 14, 2014, the Company purchased 208,325 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock from Timothy J. Stabosz in a privatelynegotiated transaction pursuant to a purchase agreement, at a purchase price of $7.60 per share, which was at a discount to the then market price of theCompany’s Common Stock, with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1,583,000. None of such shares were purchased as part of a publiclyannounced plan or program, nor has the Company announced any plan or program to purchase any additional shares. ITEM 6. Selected Financial Data Not required. ITEM 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW We believe we have effectively countered the on-going sluggish pneumatic tools market, which has during 2014 adversely affected both Hy-Techand Florida Pneumatic, through the consummation of three acquisitions during the third quarter of 2014. Further, we believe that these acquisitions willbetter position our Company in 2015 and beyond. Additionally, despite a net decline in Hardware revenue, due primarily to the sale of the Kitchen and Bathproduct line in November 2013, Nationwide strengthened its gross margin, and without Kitchen and Bath’s associated costs and expenses, was able toincrease its operating income. New bank arrangement Contemporaneously with the ATSCO acquisition, on August 13, 2014, we entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement,(the “Restated Loan Agreement”), with Capital One Business Credit (“COBC”). The Restated Loan Agreement, among other things, amended the existingcredit agreement with COBC by: (1) increasing the total amount of the credit facility from $29,423,000 to $33,657,000, (2) increasing the revolver loan from$20,000,000 to $22,000,000, and (3) creating a new Term Loan. In addition, the Restated Loan Agreement also reset certain financial covenants. 11Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

We believe this acquisition will enable us to become a largerfactor in the automotive air tools industry, as well as provide our other pneumatic tool companies the ability to utilize some of ETI’s patented technologies infuture product offerings. Universal Air Tool Company Limited On July 29, 2014, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of UAT, a distributor of pneumatic tools. UAT is located in the United Kingdom. Thisacquisition provides us with direct entry into the European pneumatic tool market for our entire suite of air tool products. As the result of the UAT acquisition, we now are exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses. These gains or losses are presented in ourconsolidated financial statements as “Other comprehensive loss – foreign currency translation adjustments”. For the year ended December 31, 2014, wereported a foreign currency translation loss of $228,000, due to the decline in the value of the British pound sterling (“GBP”) to the USD, since the date ofacquisition. Air Tool Service Company On August 13, 2014, we acquired substantially all of the assets comprising the business of ATSCO, an Ohio based corporation engaged in thedesign, manufacture and distribution of pneumatic tools and parts. We believe this acquisition will expand Hy-Tech’s product offering and enlarge itscustomer base. KEY INDICATORS Economic Measures Much of our business is driven by the ebbs and flows of the general economic conditions in both the United States and, to a lesser extent,abroad. Our Tools segment focuses on a wide array of customer types including, but not limited to large retailers, aerospace, large and small resellers ofpneumatic tools and parts; and automotive related customers. The Tools segment tends to track the general economic conditions of the United States,industrial production and general retail sales. The key economic measures for our Hardware group are housing starts and remodeling spending activity. A key economic measure relevant to us is the cost of the raw materials in our products. Key materials include metals, especially various types of steeland aluminum. Also important is the value of the dollar in relation to the TWD, as we purchase a significant portion of our products from Taiwan. Purchasesfrom Chinese sources are made in USDs. However, if the Chinese RMB, were to be revalued against the dollar, there could be a significant negative impact onthe cost of our products. As the result of the UAT acquisition, we closely monitor the fluctuation in the GBP to the USD. Operating Measures Key operating measures we use to manage our operating segments are: orders; shipments; development of new products; customer retention;inventory levels and productivity. These measures are recorded and monitored at various intervals, including daily, weekly and monthly. To the extent thesemeasures are relevant; they are discussed in the detailed sections below for each operating segment. Financial Measures Key financial measures we use to evaluate the results of our business include: various revenue metrics; gross margin; selling, general andadministrative expenses; earnings before interest and taxes; operating cash flows and capital expenditures; return on sales; return on assets; days salesoutstanding and inventory turns. These measures are reviewed at monthly, quarterly and annual intervals and compared to historical periods as well asestablished objectives. To the extent that these measures are relevant, they are discussed in the detailed sections below for each operating segment. 12Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Certain of these accounting policies require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues andexpenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, including thoserelated to bad debts, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets, warranty reserves and taxes. We base our estimates on historical data and experience,when available, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the combined results of which form the basis formaking judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from theseestimates. Our critical accounting policies are further described below. In addition to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, P&F considers thefollowing policies and estimates to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in the preparation of the Company’s consolidatedfinancial statements and the uncertainties that could impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or title has passed to our customer or services havebeen provided, the sale price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We sell our goods on terms which transfer title and risk of lossat a specified location, typically shipping point, port of loading or port of discharge, depending on the final destination of the goods. Revenue recognitionfrom product sales occurs when all factors are met, including transfer of title and risk of loss, which occurs either upon shipment by us or upon receipt bycustomers at the location specified in the terms of sale. Other than standard product warranty provisions, our sales arrangements provide for no other post-shipment obligations. We do offer rebates and other sales incentives, promotional allowances or discounts, from time to time and for certain customers,typically related to customer purchase volume, all of which are fixed or determinable and are classified as a reduction of revenue and recorded at the time ofsale. We periodically evaluate whether an allowance for sales returns is necessary. Historically, we have experienced minimal sales returns. If we believe thereare material potential sales returns, we would provide the necessary provision against sales. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. We sell our products to retailers, distributors and OEMs involved in avariety of industries. We perform continuing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition, and although we generally do not require collateral,letters of credit may be required from customers in certain circumstances. Management reviews accounts receivable to determine if any receivables willpotentially be uncollectible. Factors considered in the determination include, among other factors, number of days an invoice is past due, customer historicaltrends, available credit ratings information, other financial data and the overall economic environment. Collection agencies may also be utilized ifmanagement so determines. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified amounts that are believed to be uncollectible. We also may record asan additional allowance a certain percentage of aged accounts receivable, based on historical experience and our assessment of the general financialconditions affecting our customer base. If actual collection experience changes, revisions to the allowance may be required. We have a limited number ofcustomers with individually large amounts due at any given consolidated balance sheet date. Any unanticipated change in the creditworthiness of any ofthese customers could have a material effect on our results of operations in the period in which such changes or events occur. After all reasonable attempts tocollect an account receivable have failed, the amount of the receivable is written off against the allowance. Based on the information available, we believethat our allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2014 was adequate. However, actual write-offs might exceed the recorded allowance. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method or the weighted average method. Inventory,which includes materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead costs, is recorded net of an allowance for obsolete or unmarketable inventory. Such allowance isbased upon both historical experience and management’s understanding of market conditions and forecasts of future product demand. In addition, all itemsin inventory in excess of one year’s usage are considered for inclusion in the calculation of inventory obsolescence. If the actual amount of obsolete orunmarketable inventory significantly exceeds the estimated allowance, our cost of sales, gross profit and net earnings would be significantly affected. 13Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets In accordance and compliance with authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), we test goodwill forimpairment on an annual basis as of the last day in November or more frequently if we believe indicators of impairment might exist. Goodwill is tested at alevel of reporting referred to as "the reporting unit." The company's reporting units are Hy-Tech, Florida Pneumatic and Nationwide. An entity has the optionto first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not (that is,a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances,an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-stepimpairment test is unnecessary. The company has elected not to perform the qualitative assessment and began its impairment testing with the first step of thetwo-step impairment process. The first step, used to identify potential impairment, compares the calculated fair value of a reporting unit with its carryingamount. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit is less than its fair value, no impairment exists and the second step is not performed. If the carryingamount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the entity is required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount ofthe impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carryingamount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss isrecognized for the excess. The evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets requires that management prepare estimates of future operating results foreach of our operating units. These estimates are made with respect to future business conditions and estimated expected future cash flows to determineestimated fair value. However, if, in the future, key drivers in our assumptions or estimates such as (i) a material decline in general economic conditions; (ii)competitive pressures on our revenue or our ability to maintain margins; (iii) significant price increases from our vendors that cannot be passed through toour customers; and (iv) breakdowns in supply chain or other factors beyond our control occur, an impairment charge against our intangible assets may berequired. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The company reviews long-lived assets, including property, plant, and equipment and identifiable intangible assets, for impairment wheneverchanges in circumstances or events may indicate that the carrying amounts are not recoverable. The company also tests indefinite-lived intangible assets,consisting of acquired trade names, for impairment at least annually as of the last day of November. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount of theasset, a loss is recognized for the difference. Factors which may cause an impairment of long-lived assets include significant changes in the manner of use of these assets, negative industry ormarket trends, a significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, or a likely sale or disposal of the asset before the endof its estimated useful life. If any of these factors exist, the company is required to test the long-lived asset for recoverability and may be required to recognizean impairment charge for all or a portion of the asset's carrying value. Income Taxes We account for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. This approach requires the recognition of current tax assets or liabilities for theamounts refundable or payable on tax returns for the current year, as well as the recognition of deferred tax assets or liabilities for the expected future taxconsequences of temporary differences that can arise between (a) the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income for a year, such as from netoperating loss carryforwards and other tax credits, and (b) the tax bases of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financialstatements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates. The impact on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates andlaws, if any, is reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period enacted. Further, we evaluate the likelihood of realizing benefit from ourdeferred tax assets by estimating future sources of taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuationallowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We file a consolidated Federal tax return. P&F and certain of its subsidiaries file combined tax returns in New York and Texas. All subsidiaries, otherthan UAT, file other state and local tax returns on a stand-alone basis. UAT files an income tax return to the taxing authorities in the United Kingdom. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while otherpositions are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of atax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely thannot that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offsetor aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefitthat is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with taxpositions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanyingconsolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest andpenalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as income taxes in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. 14Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Unlessdiscussed elsewhere, we believe that our relationships with our key customers remain satisfactory, and there were no major trends or uncertainties that had, orwe could reasonably expect could have, a material impact on our revenue. Further, other than the impact the three acquisitions completed during the thirdquarter of 2014 had on our consolidated financial statements, there was no unusual or infrequent event, transaction or any significant economic change thatmaterially affected our results of operations. However, we continue to encounter sluggishness in the pneumatic tool sector of our business.

In 2013 these specialty product orders were shipped to Sears during the fourth quarter, whereas in 2014 theseproducts were shipped during the third quarter. Sales of basic air tool products and accessories were up slightly at both its Retail customers during the fourthquarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. Its Industrial/catalog revenue declined a modest 2.6 percent, when comparing the three-month periodsended December 31, 2014 and 2013. While the quarterly revenue was lower than the prior year, this product line has improved since earlier in 2014, whenFlorida Pneumatic encountered sluggishness from its Industrial and catalog customers. Orders from customers in the metal-working manufacturing andfoundries sectors have begun to improve since then. As the result of the acquisitions completed during the third quarter of 2014 of ETI and UAT, FloridaPneumatic’s Automotive product line revenue increased nearly thirteen fold. Retail revenue’s full year of 2014 decline is due primarily to a net reduction in the shipments of specialty/promotional products, as well as lowershipments of basic air tools and accessories during the first nine months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The reduction in basic air tools andaccessories is due in large part to Florida Pneumatic shipping the initial roll-out to The Home Depot stores in 2013, compared to the normalized level ofreplenishment orders shipped during the first nine months of 2014, as well as an on-going reduction in the size of orders from Sears. Industrial/catalogrevenue during 2014 declined compared to the prior year due in large part to a weakness with the specialty distributors, who service various industries, suchas foundries and metal-working manufacturers, which use abrasive/finishing tools such as grinders and cutting tools. However, as noted above, theacquisitions completed earlier this year were the primary cause for the nearly $5.4 million, or fivefold increase, in Florida Pneumatic’s Automotive productline revenue. We believe the Automotive product line should provide greater opportunity for revenue growth, going forward. As such, we anticipate placinggreater emphasis on this now expanded sector. 16Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Hy-Tech manufactures and markets its own value-added line of airtools and parts, which now include the ATSCO brand, as well as distributes a high quality line of complementary sockets, which, in the aggregate make upthe “ATP” category. Hy-Tech Machine products (“Hy-Tech Machine”) are primarily marketed to the mining, construction and industrial manufacturingsectors.

The integration of themanufacturing of the ATSCO suite of air tools products into the Cranberry, PA facility is continuing. During the fourth quarter of 2014, this transition, alongwith the relocation of machinery and personnel, negatively impacted ATP, and to some degree Hy-Tech Machine results, compared to the fourth quarter of2013. Hy-Tech’s sales to its Major customer did improve this quarter, compared to the same period a year ago. The ordering pattern from this customer iserratic and unpredictable, as such it is difficult to plan or predict future results. When comparing the full year 2014 to 2013, ATP revenue was essentially flat, improving less than one percent. Economic uncertainty in the marketsectors in which ATP products are sold, at both the national and international levels, may continue to suppress future revenue opportunities in 2015. 2014revenue from its Hy-Tech Machine products declined compared to the prior year due primarily to a one-time order during the second quarter of 2013 inexcess of $300,000 from a railroad company not repeated in 2014. Lastly, as stated above, the ordering pattern from Hy-Tech’s Major customer is erratic andunpredictable, which results in quarter to quarter revenue swings.

We believe two key driversto this improvement are new home construction and home improvement/renovations. New home starts during the three-month period ended December 31,2014, according to the U.S. Census Bureau data released in January 2015, increased over the same period in the prior year, as did spending on homeimprovement/renovations. The decline in OEM revenue is due primarily to the change of ownership and relocation of a major customer in this category.Fourth quarter 2014 Patio products revenue, although greater than the same period in 2013, was hindered slightly due to supply chain issues. Lastly, inNovember 2013, Nationwide sold to an unrelated third party, all inventory, intangibles and certain fixed assets attributable to its Kitchen and Bath productline. Throughout 2014, Nationwide continued its successful marketing efforts of its Fence and Gate hardware line, as it further increased its customer baseacross the United States. Housing starts during 2014 were greater than during 2013. We believe this increase, along with greater spending on homeimprovement/renovations, contributed to the growth in its year over year Fence and Gate hardware revenue. Nationwide’s OEM product line revenuedeclined 7.0% compared to the same period a year ago. More than half of the annual decline occurred in the fourth quarter, which we believe to be the resultof a change of ownership and relocation of a major customer in this category. Patio revenue during the full-year 2014 increased when compared to the sameperiod in 2013, due primarily to an improved home repair market in the southeastern portion of the United States and improved inventory / service levels. As Fence and Gate hardware continues to be Nationwide’s primary focus, we intend to continue our current strategy, which is to develop new,innovative Fence and Gate hardware products and accessories, as well as to continue to expand our national market campaign. This action may impact theperformance of its other product lines. 18Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Tools The acquisitions of ETI and UAT during the third quarter of 2014 had a major impact on Florida Pneumatic’s fourth quarter of 2014 results. Bothproduct lines are marketed to the automotive sector, which tends to generate higher gross margins than its Retail sector, but not as strong as the higher marginIndustrial/catalog sectors. As such, with this added revenue, Florida Pneumatic improved its overall gross margin as well as its gross profit, compared to thesame three-month period in 2013. During the fourth quarter of 2014 Hy-Tech’s gross margin increased, compared to the same period in 2013, due primarily tohigher overhead absorption. This improved overhead absorption, is due primarily to the addition of the ATSCO products, many of which during the quarterwere manufactured at our Cranberry, PA facility. Further, we believe Hy-Tech’s overall gross margins should continue to improve during 2015, as wecomplete the manufacturing integration from the former ATSCO facility in Mentor, OH, to our Cranberry, PA facility. Its gross profit increased due toincreased revenue and improved overall gross margins. 19Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. When comparing the full-years of 2014 and 2013, Florida Pneumatic’s gross margin improved slightly primarily due to increased Automotiverevenue, which tend to generate higher gross margin, partially offset by lower absorption of warehouse and manufacturing overhead. During 2013, weprocessed the entire initial rollout to The Home Depot, creating unusually high warehouse efficiencies due to the inventory through-put. Warehouseoverhead absorption during 2014 was at normalized levels, thus negatively impacting Florida Pneumatic’s gross margin, compared to 2013. During 2014,Hy-Tech’s gross margin declined compared to 2013, primarily due to customer/product mix, and, to a lesser degree, lower absorption of manufacturing duringthe first two-thirds of 2014, as well as the effects of the initial phase of the integration of ATSCO. For several months immediately following the acquisitionof ATSCO’s assets, Hy-Tech’s overall efficiencies suffered, as ATSCO products were made partially in Mentor OH and in Cranberry PA. However, as notedabove, we believe as ATSCO’s products are manufactured solely in Cranberry PA, Hy-Tech’s overall gross margin should improve. Hardware During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, Nationwide was able to improve its overall gross margin by 0.6 percentage points, when compared tothe same period in 2013. This increase was due primarily to an overall better product mix in its Fence and Gate hardware, and the elimination of the Kitchenand Bath product line, which generally produced lower profit margins. Their higher gross margin and increased revenue enabled Nationwide to generatehigher gross profit during the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. As noted above, the sale in November 2013 of the Kitchen and Bath product line was a key factor in Nationwide’s improved overall gross margin in2014. However, although Nationwide was able to increase its higher gross margin Fence and Gate hardware revenue, the loss of the Kitchen and Bath revenueresulted in a decline in total gross profit, when comparing the twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. During 2014, Nationwide was ableto partially offset through modest price increases, a portion of cost increases it incurred from its suppliers, which were due in part to rising overseas laborcosts, as well as increases in overseas raw material costs. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) include, among other things, all compensation plus employee benefits and related costs,administrative facilities, communications, variable costs, promotional expenses for our direct sales and marketing staff, legal, accounting and otherprofessional fees, as well as amortization and depreciation and general corporate overhead and engineering expenses. This year our SG&A includesadditional costs incurred as a result of the three acquisitions consummated during the third quarter of 2014. During the fourth quarter of 2014, our SG&A was $5,843,000, or 32.6% of revenue, compared to $4,411,000, or 28.6% of revenue during the samethree-month period in 2013. Contributing to the increase in SG&A was additional compensation of $831,000, which is comprised of base salaries and wages,including wages and salaries at our three new acquisitions, accrued performance-based bonus incentives, associated payroll taxes and employee benefits.During the fourth quarter of 2013, we recorded reductions, or credits of approximately $192,000 in our consolidated accrued performance-based bonusincentives, due primarily to an over accrual during the first nine months of 2013, whereas during the fourth quarter of 2014 we recorded approximately$352,000 of consolidated accrued performance-based bonus incentives, accounting for approximately $544,000 of the change in the fourth quarter increase.The balance of the increase in compensation is primarily due to added staffing to support the acquisitions and growth, as well as general increases. Variablecosts, which include commissions, warranty costs, freight out travel and entertainment, and advertising/promotional fees, increased $205,000, due primarilyto the increase in revenue. Further, amortization and depreciation increased $311,000, nearly all of which is the result of the three acquisitions. Additionally,$86,000 of the increase in SG&A is due to increased professional fees, nearly all of which is attributable to the three acquisitions, which are discussed infurther detail elsewhere in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis. The above increases were partially offset by a decrease in non-cash, stock-basedcompensation of $56,000. Lastly, we reached resolution with U.S. Customs on a matter originally recorded and disclosed in 2012 and, as the accrued penaltyassociated with this matter was settled for an amount less than originally projected, we recorded a credit of $87,000. Driven primarily by the three acquisitions during the year, our 2014 SG&A increased to $23,064,000, compared to $22,238,000 incurred in the prioryear. Stated as a percentage of revenue, our SG&A for 2014 was 30.7%, compared to 29.2% in 2013. The most significant factor contributing to this increasewas the three acquisitions in the third quarter of 2014, which is the primary factor that caused professional services, which include legal, accounting andother professional/consultants to increase by $779,000. Our 2014 SG&A compensation expenses increased $635,000, due primarily to additional staffingthat includes wages and salaries at our three new acquisitions, and improved overall performance, which drives the Company-wide performance basedcompensation. Additionally, again due to the three acquisitions, we recorded an increase in amortization and depreciation of $456,000. Partially offsettingthe above increases was the one-time fee of $700,000 incurred by Florida Pneumatic during the first quarter of 2013, in connection with the initial roll-out toTHD, not recurring in 2014. Additionally, we reduced non-cash stock-based compensation by $118,000. Due primarily to an adjustment to our allowance fordoubtful accounts, our bad debt expense declined $189,000. 20Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Further, primarilyas the result of the aforementioned acquisitions, the average balance of short-term borrowings during the three-month period ended December 31, 2014increased to $15,072,000, compared to $3,086,000 during the same period in 2013. For 2014, the average balance of short-term borrowings was $7,436,000,compared to $5,819,000 during 2013. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for further discussion on the applicable margin rate reductions. Additionally,included in our interest expense is amortization expense of debt financing costs.

The primary factorsaffecting the 2014 effective tax rate were nondeductible expenses, reversal of liabilities of deconsolidated subsidiary and state income taxes. The primaryfactors affecting the 2013 effective tax rate were nondeductible expenses, reversal of an uncertain tax position, increase in the valuation allowance on certainstate deferred tax assets and state income taxes. 21Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

We monitor suchthings as days’ sales outstanding, inventory requirements, accounts payable and capital expenditures to project liquidity needs, as well as evaluate return onassets. Our primary source of funds is a Revolver Loan (“Revolver”) with our bank. We gauge our liquidity and financial stability by various measurements, some of which are shown in the following table: December 31, 2014 2013 Working capital $13,927,000 $26,777,000 Current ratio 1.59 to 1 4.65 to 1 Shareholders’ equity $39,991,000 $38,730,000 Credit Facility We entered into a Loan and Security Agreement in October 2010, as amended (“Credit Agreement”), with COBC, as agent and lender. The CreditAgreement expires December 19, 2017, (the “Maturity Date”). The Credit Agreement provides for Revolver borrowings, which are secured by the Company’saccounts receivable, mortgages on its real property located in Cranberry, PA, Jupiter, FL and Tampa, FL (“Real Property”), inventory and equipment. P&Fand certain of its subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and their obligations are cross-guaranteed by certain other subsidiaries. Revolverborrowings bear interest at either LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement (“Base Rate”), plus theApplicable Margin (the “Applicable Margin”), as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate, either LIBOR or Base Rate, which is added to theApplicable Margin, is at the option of the Company, subject to limitations on the number of LIBOR borrowings. Contemporaneously with the ATSCO acquisition on August 13, 2014, we entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement,(the “Restated Loan Agreement”), with COBC. The Restated Loan Agreement, among other things, amended the Credit Agreement by: (1) increasing the totalamount of the credit facility from $29,423,000 to $33,657,000, (2) increasing the Revolver from $20,000,000 to $22,000,000, (3) creating a new, $3,000,000Term Loan, as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement (“Term Loan B”), and (4) re-designating as “Term Loan A”, the previously existing outstanding TermLoan, which relates primarily to the Company’s real property. The balance of Revolver borrowings outstanding was $11,817,000 and $360,000 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Applicable Marginsadded to Revolver borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate were 2.25% and 1.25%, respectively at December 31, 2014, and 1.75 % and 0.75%, respectively,at December 31, 2013. During 2014 we made three acquisitions. These acquisitions were funded as follows: 1.ETI - The purchase price for this acquisition consisted of $10,377,000 in cash plus the assumption of certain payables. We financed thisacquisition from our Revolver. 2.UAT - The purchase price for this acquisition consisted of approximately $1,947,000. This transaction was subject to a post-closing workingcapital adjustment that resulted in a repayment from the former shareholders of UAT of approximately $142,000. In addition, there is a potentialcontingent consideration payment due to the former shareholders of UAT following the first anniversary of the transaction, of a maximum of£250,000. We financed this acquisition from our Revolver. 3.ATSCO - The purchase price consisted of approximately $7,659,000 in cash and the assumption of certain payables and is subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment. The cash portion consisted of the $3 million Term Loan B, (see below and Note 6 to the Company’sConsolidated Financial Statements), plus $4,659,000 from our Revolver. Term Loan borrowings incur interest at LIBOR or the Base Rate plusthe Applicable Margins, which were 3.25% and 2.25%, respectively, at December 31, 2014. Term Loan B is to be repaid in 36 consecutive monthly payments of $83,000, with an additional annual mandatory payment equal to 50% of theCompany’s Excess Cash Flow, as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement for any such year, if any. As the result of determining our Excess Cash Flow for theyear 2014, in April 2015, we will be required to repay the balance of Term Loan B, which is estimated to be approximately $2.4 million. The effect of thisrepayment in April 2015 will be to eliminate Term Loan B and increase the Revolver by a like amount. 22Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. The Restated Loan Agreement also provided for a $7,000,000 Term Loan A, which is secured by mortgages on the Real Property, accountsreceivable, inventory and equipment. The balance due on the Term Loan A at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $6,440,000 and $6,720,000,respectively. Term Loan A is repaid approximately $23,000 each month, with the remaining balance due at the Maturity Date. Term Loan A borrowingsincur interest at LIBOR or the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margins, which were 3.00% and 2.00%, respectively, at December 31, 2014 and December 31,2013. Additionally, the Company borrowed $380,000 and $519,000 in March 2012 and September 2012, respectively, as loans primarily for machineryand equipment (“Capex Term Loans”). The repayment of these two Capex Term Loans is based on sixty-month amortization periods, resulting in monthlyrepayments of approximately $6,000 and $9,000, respectively. Applicable Margins added to these Capex Term Loans at both December 31, 2014 andDecember 31, 2013 were 3.00% and 2.00%, for borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate, respectively. The balance due on the Capex Term Loans atDecember 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $463,000 and $643,000, respectively. The aggregate amounts of long-term debt scheduled to mature in each of the years are, approximately as follows: 2015 $3,167,000 2016 493,000 2017 6,000,000 $9,660,000 We are required to provide COBC among other things, monthly financial statements, monthly borrowing base certificates and certificates ofcompliance with various financial covenants. We believe we are in compliance with all financial and non-financial covenants. As part of the Restated LoanAgreement, if an event of default occurs, the interest rate would increase by two percent per annum during the period of default, in addition to other remediesprovided to COBC. Cash Flows Cash provided by operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $8,716,000, and $3,242,000, respectively. At December 31, 2014, our net cash balance was $1,011,000, compared to $413,000 at December 31, 2013. As discussed above, with respect to dailycash flows, we operate under the terms and conditions of the Revolver. As a result, all domestic cash receipts are remitted to COBC lock-boxes. Thus, cash onhand is primarily cash disbursements that have not yet cleared our operating accounts at COBC. Our total bank debt at December 31, 2014 was $21,387,000,compared to $7,723,000 at December 31, 2013, primarily the result of the three acquisitions consummated during the third quarter of 2014. Theaforementioned resulted in our total debt to total book capitalization (total debt divided by total debt plus equity), percentage rising to 34.9% at December31, 2014, compared to 16.6% at December 31, 2013, again driven primarily by the three acquisitions discussed earlier. We anticipate generating cash fromoperations during 2015. Further, we believe the acquisitions completed in 2014 will be accretive moving forward. Capital spending during the year ended December 31, 2014 was $1,072,000, compared to $693,000 in 2013. Capital expenditures currently plannedfor 2015 are approximately $1,600,000, which we expect will be financed through our Restated Loan Agreement and cash flows. The major portion of theseplanned capital expenditures will be for computer numerical control (“CNC”) equipment to be used at Hy-Tech, with the balance for tooling required for newproduct development at all our operating subsidiaries. Customer concentration Within our Tools segment we have two retail customers that accounted for 17.7% and 25.6%, respectively at December 31, 2014, of ourconsolidated accounts receivable, compared to 31.2% and 27.2%, respectively at December 31, 2013. To date, these customers, with minor exceptions, arecurrent in their payments. Further, these two customers accounted for 12.2% and 23.1%, respectively of our 2014 consolidated revenue, compared to 15.3%and 24.7%, respectively, in 2013. Other Information At December 31, 2014, we had $15,637,000 of open purchase order commitments, compared to $10,443,000 at December 31, 2013. 23Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Stabosz in a privately negotiated transactionpursuant to a purchase agreement, at a purchase price of $7.60 per share, which was at a discount to the then market price of the Company’s Common Stockwith an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1,583,000. IMPACT OF INFLATION We believe that the effects of changing prices and inflation on our consolidated financial position and our results of operations are immaterial. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Although it is difficult to identify precisely the portion of capital expenditures or other costs attributable to be in compliance with environmentallaws and regulations, we do not expect such expenditures or other costs to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results ofoperations. AFFORDABLE CARE ACT The Affordable Care Act (the “ACA”), which was adopted in 2010 and is being phased in over several years, significantly affects the provision ofboth health care services and benefits in the United States. The ACA may impact our cost of providing our employees with health insurance and/or benefits,and may also impact various other aspects of our business. The ACA did not have a material impact on our fiscal 2014 and 2013 financial results. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Refer to Note 1, "Summary of Accounting Policies", to our consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting standards andpronouncements. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted would have a material effecton our consolidated financial statements. ITEM 7A.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require thatwe plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is notrequired to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal controlover financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinionon the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining,on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significantestimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis forour opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of P&F Industries, Inc. andSubsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accountingprinciples generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/ CohnReznick LLP Jericho, New York March 31, 2015 26Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2014 and 2013 NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of P&F Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“P&F” or the “Company”).All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts in the financial statements have been reclassified to conformto classifications used in the current year. The Company The Company operates in two primary lines of business, or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories(“Hardware”). Tools The Company conducts its Tools business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”), which in turncurrently operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc.(“Hy-Tech”). During the third quarter of 2014, the Company acquired Exhaust Technologies Inc. (“ETI”) and Universal Air Tool Company Limited (“UAT”).Both ETI and UAT are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Florida Pneumatic, and unless otherwise indicated, the operations and results of operations of FloridaPneumatic herein include ETI and UAT as of the respective dates such companies were acquired. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2014, the Companyacquired substantially all the assets of Air Tool Service Company (“ATSCO”), which business operates through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech.Unless otherwise indicated, the operations and results of operations of Hy-Tech herein include ATSCO as of the date the business was acquired. (See Note 2– Acquisitions, for additional information relating to these acquisitions). Florida Pneumatic is engaged in the importation and sale of pneumatic hand tools, primarily for the retail, industrial and automotive markets, andthe importation and sale of compressor air filters. Florida Pneumatic also markets, through its Berkley Tool division (“Berkley”), a product line whichincludes pipe and bolt dies, pipe taps, wrenches, vises and stands, pipe and tubing cutting equipment, hydrostatic test pumps, and replacement electricalcomponents for a widely-used brand of pipe cutting and threading machines. Hy-Tech manufactures and distributes its own line of industrial pneumatic tools. Hy-Tech also produces and markets impact wrenches, grinders,drills, and motors. Further, it also manufactures tools to customer specifications. Its customers include refineries, chemical plants, power generation facilities,heavy construction enterprises, and oil and mining companies. In addition, Hy-Tech manufactures an extensive line of pneumatic tool replacement parts thatare sold to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), and competitively. It also manufactures and distributes high pressure stoppers for hydrostatic testingfabricated pipe, gears, sprockets, splines and racks and produces a line of siphons. Hardware The Company conducts its Hardware business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”). Countrywideconducts its business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”). Nationwide is an importer andmanufacturer of door, window and fencing hardware and accessories, including rollers, hinges, window operators, sash locks, custom zinc castings and doorclosers. Nationwide’s products are sold through in-house sales personnel and manufacturers’ representatives to distributors, retailers and OEM customers. Endusers of Nationwide’s products include contractors, home builders, pool and patio distributors, OEM/private label customers and general consumers. Additionally, Nationwide marketed a Kitchen and Bath product line. However, effective November 12, 2013, Nationwide sold to an unrelated thirdparty all inventory, intangibles and certain fixed assets attributable to its Kitchen and Bath product line. The net impact of this sale was immaterial to theCompany’s operations. 33Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely. The user assumes all risks for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information,except to the extent such damages or losses cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law. Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States(“GAAP”). Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been provided, the saleprice is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company sells its goods on terms which transfer title and risk of loss at a specifiedlocation, typically shipping point, port of loading or port of discharge, depending on the final destination of the goods. Revenue recognition from productsales occurs when all factors are met, including transfer of title and risk of loss, which occurs either upon shipment by the Company or upon receipt bycustomers at the location specified in the terms of sale. Other than standard product warranty provisions, the Company’s sales arrangements provide for noother post-shipment obligations. The Company does offer rebates and other sales incentives, promotional allowances or discounts, from time to time and forcertain customers, typically related to customer purchase volume, all of which are fixed or determinable and are classified as a reduction of revenue andrecorded at the time of sale. The Company periodically evaluates whether an allowance for sales returns is necessary. Historically, the Company hasexperienced sales returns. If the Company concludes there are potential sales returns, the Company would provide any necessary provision against sales. Shipping and Handling Costs Expenses for shipping and handling costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, and totaled approximately $2,081,000 and$2,177,000, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in bank demand deposits. The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with originalmaturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2014 and 2013. Financial Instruments The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt approximatefair value as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 because of the relatively short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported forlong-term debt approximate fair value as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 because, in general, the interest rates underlying the instruments fluctuate withmarket rates. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company sells its products to retailers, distributors and originalequipment manufacturers involved in a variety of industries. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition, andalthough the Company generally does not require collateral, letters of credit may be required from customers in certain circumstances. Management reviews accounts receivable to determine if any receivables will potentially be uncollectible. Factors considered in the determinationinclude, among other factors, number of days an invoice is past due, customer historical trends, available credit ratings information, other financial data andthe overall economic environment. Collection agencies may also be utilized if management so determines. 34Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely. The user assumes all risks for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information,except to the extent such damages or losses cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law. Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified amounts that are believed to be uncollectible. TheCompany also records as an additional allowance a certain percentage of aged accounts receivable, based on historical experience and the Company’sassessment of the general financial conditions affecting its customer base. If actual collection experience changes, revisions to the allowance may berequired. The Company has a limited number of customers with individually large amounts due at any given balance sheet date. Any unanticipated change inthe creditworthiness of any of these customers could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations in the period in which such changes orevents occur. After all reasonable attempts to collect an account receivable have failed, the amount of the receivable is written off against the allowance.Based on the information available, the Company believes that its allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2014 is adequate. However, actualwrite-offs might exceed the recorded allowance. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company places the majority of its cash with Capital One Bank, which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).Significant concentrations of credit risk may arise from the Company’s cash maintained at Capital One Bank, as from time to time cash balances may exceedthe FDIC limits. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. Within ourTools segment we have two customers that in the aggregate, as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, accounted for 43.3% and 58.3%, respectively, of ourconsolidated accounts receivable. To date, these customers, with few exceptions, are current in their payments. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reportedamounts of assets and liabilities, possible disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts ofrevenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis P&F evaluates its estimates, including those related to collectability of accountsreceivable, valuation of inventories, recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets and income taxes. The Company bases its estimates on historicalexperience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for makingjudgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from those estimates underdifferent assumptions or conditions. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method or the weighted average method. Theinventory balance, which includes raw materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead costs, is recorded net of an allowance for obsolete or unmarketableinventory. Such allowance is based upon both historical experience and management’s understanding of market conditions and forecasts of future productdemand. If the actual amount of obsolete or unmarketable inventory significantly exceeds the estimated allowance, the Company’s cost of sales, gross profitand net earnings would be significantly affected. Property and Equipment and Depreciation and Amortization Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Generally, the Company capitalizes items in excess of$1,000. Minor replacements and maintenance and repair items are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal or retirement of assets, the cost and relatedaccumulated depreciation are removed from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Depreciation of buildings and machinery and equipment is computed by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.Buildings are depreciated over periods ranging from 27.5 to 31 years, and machinery and equipment is depreciated over periods ranging from 3 to 10 years.Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease or the useful life of the related asset, whichever is shorter. 35Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. Long-Lived Assets In accordance with authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), pertaining to the accounting for theimpairment or disposal of long-lived assets, property and equipment and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairmentwhenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company’s assessment ofrecoverability of property and equipment is performed on an entity level. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of thecarrying amount of such asset to its estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of such assetexceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceedsthe fair value of the asset. Acquisitions The Company accounts for acquired businesses using the purchase method of accounting, which requires that the assets acquired, liabilitiesassumed, and contingent consideration be recorded as of the date of the acquisition at their respective fair values. It further requires that acquisition-relatedcosts be recognized separately from the acquisition and expensed as incurred and that restructuring costs be expensed in periods subsequent to theacquisition date. The Company engaged third party valuation appraisal firms to assist the Company in determining the fair values and useful lives of theassets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company records a preliminary purchase price allocation for its acquisitions and finalizes purchase priceallocations as additional information relative to the fair values of the assets acquired become known. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill is carried at cost less any impairment charges. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to anannual test for impairment at the entity unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) and between annual tests in certaincircumstances. In accordance with authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, the Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis. This testoccurs in the fourth quarter or more frequently if the Company believes indicators of impairment exist. The performance of the test involves a two-stepprocess. The first step of the impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the Company’s reporting units with the reporting unit’s carrying amount,including goodwill. The Company generally determines the fair value of its reporting units using the income approach methodology of valuation thatincludes the expected present value of future cash flows and the market valuation approach. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the reportingunit’s fair value, the Company performs the second step of the goodwill impairment test to determine the amount of impairment loss. The second step of thegoodwill impairment test involves comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Themeasurement of goodwill subsequent to its initial recognition complies with the authoritative guidance issued by the FASB. Intangible assets other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assetsare generally amortized on a straight-line basis over their respective useful lives, generally three to twenty years. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes incircumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate ofundiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of any impairment loss for long-lived assets andcertain identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value ofthe asset. Warranty Liability The Company offers certain warranties against product defects for periods ranging from one to three years. Certain products carry limited lifetimewarranties. The Company’s typical warranties require it to repair or replace the defective products during the warranty period at no cost to the customer. Atthe time the product revenue is recognized, the Company records a liability for estimated costs under its warranties. The costs are estimated based on revenueand historical experience. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the amounts as necessary. While theCompany believes that its estimated liability for product warranties is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate, the estimated liability for theproduct warranties could differ materially from future actual warranty costs. 36Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely. The user assumes all risks for any damages or losses arising from any use of this information,except to the extent such damages or losses cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law. Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. This approach requires the recognition of current tax assets orliabilities for the amounts refundable or payable on tax returns for the current year, as well as the recognition of deferred tax assets or liabilities for theexpected future tax consequences of temporary differences that can arise between (a) the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income for a year,such as from net operating loss carryforwards and other tax credits, and (b) the tax bases of assets or liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidatedfinancial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates. The impact on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in taxrates and laws, if any, is reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period enacted. Further, we evaluate the likelihood of realizing benefit fromour deferred tax assets by estimating future sources of taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuationallowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company files a consolidated Federal tax return. P&F and certain of its subsidiaries file combined tax returns in New York and Texas. Allsubsidiaries, other than UAT, file other state and local tax returns on a stand-alone basis. UAT files an income tax return to the taxing authorities in theUnited Kingdom. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while otherpositions are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of atax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely thannot that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offsetor aggregated with other positions. For tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the tax benefit is measured as the largestamount that is judged to have a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the applicable taxing authority. Theportion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above, is reflected as a liability for unrecognizedtax benefits in the consolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities uponexamination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as income taxes in the consolidated statements of income andcomprehensive income. Advertising The Company expenses its costs of advertising in the period in which they are incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2014and 2013 were $1,642,000 and $1,401,000, respectively. Earnings Per Common Share Basic earnings per common share exclude any dilution. It is based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding duringthe year. Diluted earnings per common share reflect the effect of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options, unless the effect onearnings is anti-dilutive. Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of commonstock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company’s ClassA Common Stock. The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share: Years Ended December 31, 2014 2013 Numerator: Numerator for basic and diluted income per common share: Net income $2,080,000 $3,225,000 Denominator: Denominator for basic income per share—weighted average common shares outstanding 3,706,000 3,686,000 Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options 178,000 201,000 Denominator for diluted income per share—adjusted weighted average common shares and assumed conversions 3,884,000 3,887,000 37Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Past financial performance is no guarantee of future results. At December 31, 2014 and 2013 and during the years then ended, there were outstanding stock options whose exercise prices were higher than theaverage market values for the respective periods. These options are anti-dilutive and were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share duringthe years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The average anti-dilutive options outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were 219,547and 252,391, respectively. Share-Based Compensation In accordance with GAAP, the Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards based on estimated fairvalues. Share-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense on the accompanying consolidated statements ofincome and comprehensive income. See Note 7 for additional information. With respect to stock options, GAAP requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using anoption-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods inthe Company’s consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income. The Company records compensation expense ratably over the vesting periods.The Company estimates forfeitures at the time of grant and revises this estimate, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from thoseestimates. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of valuation for share-based awards granted. As such, the Company’sdetermination of fair value of share-based payment awards is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complexand subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, relevantinterest rates, and the expected term of the awards. With respect to any issuance of its common stock, the Company determines fair value per share as the closing price of its common stock on the dateof the grant of said shares. Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of international operations are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenseaccounts are translated at the monthly average exchange rates. Adjustments arising from the translation of the foreign currency financial statements of thecompany's international operations are reported as a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" in the company's consolidated balancesheets. For foreign currency remeasurement from each local currency into the appropriate functional currency, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasuredto functional currencies using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Gains or losses from these remeasurements were not significant andhave been included in the company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are recorded athistorical exchange rates, and the related remeasurement gains or losses are reported as a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" inthe company's consolidated balance sheets. Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements The Company does not believe that any recently issued accounting standards if adopted would have a material effect on its consolidated financialstatements.

In accordance with authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, the Company performed an annual impairment test ofgoodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets during the fourth quarter based on conditions as of November 30, 2014. The impairment testing is performedin two steps: (i) The Company compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, and (ii) if there is impairment, the Company measures theamount of impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The revised fair value of a reportingunit is allocated to the assets and liabilities of the business unit to arrive at an implied fair value of goodwill, based upon known facts and circumstances, as ifthe acquisition occurred at that time. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using a weighted average of the income approachmethodology of valuation which considers the expected present value of future cash flows and the market valuation approach. As an integral part of thevaluation process the Company anticipates minimal growth in future periods, based upon available statistical data as well as input from its seniormanagement staff. The results of step one of the impairment test determined that the fair value exceeded the carrying value and, as such, no impairment toGoodwill and other intangible assets was recorded in 2014 or 2013. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by segment for 2014 and 2013 are as follows: Consolidated Tools Hardware Balance, January 1, 2014 $5,150,000 $3,277,000 $1,873,000 Acquisition of ETI, UAT and ATSCO 6,845,000 6,845,000 — Currency translation adjustments (15,000) (15,000) — Balance, December 31, 2014 $11,980,000 $10,107,000 $1,873,000 41Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

The Credit Agreement expires December 19, 2017, (the“Maturity Date”). The Credit Agreement provides for a Revolver Loan (“Revolver”), borrowings under which are secured by the Company’s accountsreceivable, mortgages on its real property located in Cranberry, PA, Jupiter, FL and Tampa, FL (“Real Property”), inventory and equipment. P&F and certainof its subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and their obligations are cross-guaranteed by certain other subsidiaries. Revolver borrowingsbear interest at either LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement (“Base Rate”), plus the ApplicableMargin (the “Applicable Margin”), as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate, either LIBOR or Base Rate, which is added to the ApplicableMargin, is at the option of the Company, subject to limitations on the number of LIBOR borrowings. Contemporaneously with the ATSCO acquisition described in Note 2, the Company, on August 13, 2014, entered into an Amended and RestatedLoan and Security Agreement, (the “Restated Loan Agreement”), with COBC. The Restated Loan Agreement, among other things, amended the CreditAgreement by: (1) increasing the total amount of the credit facility from $29,423,000 to $33,657,000, (2) increasing the Revolver from $20,000,000 to$22,000,000, (3) creating a new Term Loan, as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement (“Term Loan B”), and (4) re-designating as “Term Loan A”, thepreviously existing outstanding Term Loan, which relates primarily to the Company’s real property. In addition, the Restated Loan Agreement also resetcertain financial covenants. At December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the balance of Revolver borrowings outstanding was $11,817,000 and $360,000, respectively. Theprimary cause for the increase in the Company’s Revolver balance at December 31, 2014, was due to the funding necessary to complete the acquisitions ofETI, UAT and ATSCO that occurred during the third quarter of 2014. See Note 2, for further discussion on the use of funds in connection with theseacquisitions. Applicable Margins added to Revolver borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate were 2.25% and 1.25%, respectively at December 31, 2014 andwere 1.75% and 0.75%, respectively, at December 31, 2013. LIBOR Base Rate Range of Applicable Margins added to Revolver borrowings during: 2014 1.50 points to 2.25 points 0.50 points to 1.25 points 2013 1.75 points to 2.25 points 0.75 points to 1.25 points The Company is required to provide COBC with, among other things, monthly financial statements, monthly borrowing base certificates andcertificates of compliance with various financial covenants. The Company believes it is in compliance with all covenants under the Restated LoanAgreement. As part of the Restated Loan Agreement, if an event of default occurs, the interest rate would increase by two percent per annum during the periodof default, in addition to other remedies provided to COBC. 43Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Term Loan A borrowings can be at either LIBOR, or at the Base Rate, as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement, or a combination of thetwo plus the Applicable Margins, which for LIBOR borrowings at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 3.0%. The Applicable Margins forborrowings at the Base rate was 2.0% at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Additionally, the Restated Loan Agreement provides for a Term Loan B, pursuant to which the Company borrowed the maximum principal amountof $3,000,000 as part of the ATSCO acquisition. This Term Loan B is to be repaid in 36 consecutive monthly payments of $83,000, with an additionalmandatory repayment each year equal to 50% of the Company’s Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement) for such year, if any. TermLoan B borrowings incur interest at LIBOR or the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margins, which was 3.25% and 2.25% at December 31, 2014. As the result ofcomputing the Excess Cash Flow for the year 2014, the Company determined that, in April 2015, it will be required to repay the balance of Term Loan B,which is estimated to be approximately $2.4 million. Accordingly, the approximate payment of $2.4 million is included in “current maturities” below. Theeffect of this repayment in April 2015 will be to eliminate Term Loan B and increase the Revolver a like amount. The Company borrowed $380,000 and $519,000 in March 2012 and September 2012, respectively, as loans primarily for machinery and equipment(“Capex Term Loans”). Applicable Margins added to these Capex Term Loans at both December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were 3.00% and 2.00%, forborrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate, respectively.

With respect to stock options, the Committee will determine the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each option, the term of each option,which may not exceed ten years (or five years in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a 10% stockholder), the exercise price, the vesting schedule(if any), and the other material terms of each option. No stock option may have an exercise price less than the fair market value of the Common Stock at thetime of grant (or, in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a 10% stockholder, 110% of fair market value). With respect to all other permissiblegrants under the 2012 Plan, the Committee will determine their terms and conditions, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2012 Plan. The 2012 Plan, which terminates in May 2022, is the successor to the Company’s 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (“Previous Plan”) – see below. Stockoption awards made under the Previous Plan will continue in effect and remain governed by the provisions of that plan. The Company’s Previous Plan authorized the issuance to employees and directors of options to purchase a maximum of 1,100,000 shares ofCommon Stock. These options had to be issued within ten years of the effective date of the Previous Plan and are exercisable for a ten year period from thedate of grant, at prices not less than 100% of the closing market value of the Common Stock on the date the option is granted. In the event options grantedcontained a vesting schedule over a period of years, the Company recognized compensation cost for these awards ratably over the service period. There were no Common Stock options granted in 2014. The Company estimated the fair value of its common stock options using the following assumptions: For the year ended December 31, 2013 Risk-free interest rate 1.82%Expected term 10 years Volatility 81.27%Dividend yield 0%Weighted-average fair value of options granted $6.72 45Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Controls and Procedures Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's CEO and CFO, evaluated, as of December 31, 2014, the effectiveness of theCompany's disclosure controls and procedures, which were designed to be effective at the reasonable assurance level. The term "disclosure controls andprocedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed toensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation,controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the ExchangeAct is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate toallow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated,can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefitrelationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014, theCompany’s management, including its CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonableassurance level at that date. Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting The Company’s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined inRule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). This system is designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive officer andprincipal financial officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financialstatements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements inaccordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with theauthorizations of our management and directors; and Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that couldhave a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, of the effectivenessof the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2014. Management based this assessment on criteria foreffective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework 2013” issued by the Committee of SponsoringOrganizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, CEO and CFO concluded that our internal control over financial reporting waseffective at December 31, 2014. Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls may not prevent or detect misstatements. A control system, no matter how well designed andoperated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation ofeffectiveness as to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree ofcompliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate. This annual report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internalcontrol over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to therules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report. 53Source: P&F INDUSTRIES INC, 10-K, March 31, 2015Powered by Morningstar® Document Research℠The information contained herein may not be copied, adapted or distributed and is not warranted to be accurate, complete or timely.

Steps taken include the implementation of a detailed review process of all manually generated spreadsheets, whichincludes redundant calculations, verification of data not generated by our legacy information systems, senior management level review, as well as anaugmented detailed checklist, requiring dual sign-off for each item. Management believes that the actions described above have been fully implemented andtested and that the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting has now been remediated. There were no other changes to our internalcontrols over financial reporting made during the three-month period ended December 31, 2014. Item 9B.
