Item 1. Business

Overview

Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. (“Holdings”) was incorporated as an Ohio corporation in 1998.
Holdings, primarily through the subsidiaries owned by its direct subsidiary, Park-Ohio Industries,
Inc. (“Park-Ohio”), is an industrial supply chain logistics and diversified manufacturing business
operating in three segments: Supply Technologies, Assembly Components and Engineered
Products.

References herein to “we” or “the Company” include, where applicable, Holdings, Park-Ohio

and Holdings’ other direct and indirect subsidiaries.

On March 23, 2012, we completed the acquisition of Fluid Routing Solutions Holding Corp.
(“FRS”), a leading manufacturer of automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic hose
filler and hydraulic fluid assemblies for the automotive and industrial
products and fuel
industries. FRS will expand our sales of assembled components.

During the second quarter of 2012, as a result of the FRS acquisition, we realigned our
segments in order to better align our business with the underlying markets and customers that
we serve. In so doing, we combined Aluminum Products, Rubber Products (previously included in
the former Manufactured Products segment) and Delo Screw Products (previously included in the
Supply Technologies segment) with FRS to form the Assembly Components segment. The former
Manufactured Products segment is now referred to as Engineered Products. The business segment
results for the prior years have been reclassified to reflect these changes. Following is a
description of each of our three reportable segments.

Supply Technologies provides our customers with Total Supply ManagementTM services for a
broad range of high-volume, specialty production components. Total Supply ManagementTM
manages the efficiencies of every aspect of supplying production parts and materials to our
customers’ manufacturing floor, from strategic planning to program implementation, and includes
such services as engineering and design support, part usage and cost analysis, supplier selection,
quality assurance, bar coding, product packaging and tracking, just-in-time and point-of-use
delivery, electronic billing services and ongoing technical support. The principal customers of
Supply Technologies are in the heavy-duty truck, automotive and vehicle parts, electrical
distribution and controls, consumer electronics, recreational equipment, HVAC, agricultural and
construction equipment, semiconductor equipment, plumbing, aerospace and defense, and
appliance
cast aluminum components,
automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic products, fuel filler and hydraulic assemblies
for automotive, agricultural equipment, construction equipment, heavy-duty truck and marine
equipment industries. Assembly Components also provides value-added services such as design
and engineering, machining and assembly. Engineered Products operates a diverse group of niche
manufacturing businesses that design and manufacture a broad range of high quality products
engineered for specific customer applications. The principal customers of Engineered Products are
original equipment manufacturers (“OEM’s”) and end users in the steel, coatings, forging,
foundry, heavy-duty truck, construction equipment, automotive, oil and gas, rail and locomotive
manufacturing and aerospace and defense industries.

Supply Technologies

Our Supply Technologies business provides our customers with Total Supply ManagementTM,
a proactive solutions approach that manages the efficiencies of every aspect of supplying
production parts and materials to our customers’ manufacturing floor, from strategic planning to
program implementation. Total Supply ManagementTM includes such services as engineering and
design support, part usage and cost analysis, supplier selection, quality assurance, bar coding,
product packaging and tracking, just-in-time and point-of-use delivery, electronic billing services
and ongoing technical support. We operate 45 logistics service centers in the United States,
Mexico, Canada, Puerto Rico, Scotland, Hungary, China, Taiwan, Singapore and India, as well as
production sourcing and support centers in Asia. Through our supply chain management
programs, we supply more than 190,000 globally-sourced production components, many of which
are specialized and customized to meet individual customers’ needs.

4

Products and Services. Total Supply ManagementTM provides our customers with an expert
partner in strategic planning, global sourcing, technical services, parts and materials, logistics,
distribution and inventory management of production components. Some production components
are characterized by low per unit supplier prices relative to the indirect costs of supplier
management, quality assurance, inventory management and delivery to the production line. In
addition, Supply Technologies delivers an increasingly broad range of higher-cost production
components including valves, electro-mechanical hardware, fittings, steering components and
many others. Applications engineering specialists and the direct sales force work closely with the
engineering staff of OEM customers to recommend the appropriate production components for a
new product or to suggest alternative components that reduce overall production costs, streamline
assembly or enhance the appearance or performance of the end product. As an additional service,
Supply Technologies recently began providing spare parts and aftermarket products to end users
of its customers’ products.

Total Supply ManagementTM services are typically provided to customers pursuant to sole-
source arrangements. We believe our services distinguish us from traditional buy/sell distributors,
as well as manufacturers who supply products directly to customers, because we outsource our
customers’ high-volume production components supply chain management, providing processes
customized to each customer’s needs and replacing numerous current suppliers with a sole-source
relationship. Our highly-developed, customized, information systems provide transparency and
flexibility through the complete supply chain. This enables our customers to: (1) significantly
reduce the direct and indirect cost of production component processes by outsourcing internal
purchasing, quality assurance and inventory fulfillment responsibilities; (2) reduce the amount of
working capital invested in inventory and floor space; (3) reduce component costs through
purchasing efficiencies, including bulk buying and supplier consolidation; and (4) receive technical
expertise in production component selection and design and engineering. Our sole-source
arrangements foster long-term, entrenched supply relationships with our customers and, as a
result, the average tenure of service for our top 50 Supply Technologies clients exceeds six years.
Supply Technologies’ remaining sales are generated through the wholesale supply of industrial
products to other manufacturers and distributors pursuant to master or authorized distributor
relationships.

The Supply Technologies segment also engineers and manufactures precision cold formed and
including locknuts, SPAC® nuts and wheel hardware, which are
cold extruded products,
principally used in applications where controlled tightening is required due to high vibration.
Supply Technologies produces both standard items and specialty products to customer
specifications, which are used in large volumes by customers in the automotive, heavy-duty truck
and rail industries.

Markets and Customers. For the year ended December 31, 2012, approximately 82% of
Supply Technologies’ net sales were to domestic customers. Remaining sales were primarily to
manufacturing facilities of large, multinational customers located in Canada, Mexico, Europe and
Asia. Total Supply ManagementTM services and production components are used extensively in a
variety of industries, and demand is generally related to the state of the economy and to the
overall level of manufacturing activity.

Supply Technologies markets and sells its services to over 5,500 customers domestically and
internationally. The principal markets served by Supply Technologies are the heavy-duty truck,
automotive and vehicle parts, electrical distribution and controls, consumer electronics,
recreational equipment, recreational vehicles, HVAC, agricultural and construction equipment,
semiconductor equipment, aerospace and defense, and appliance industries. The five largest
customers, within which Supply Technologies sells through sole-source contracts to multiple

5

operating divisions or locations, accounted for approximately 31% and 27% of the sales of Supply
Technologies for 2012 and 2011, respectively. The loss of any two of its top five customers could
have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial conditions of this
segment.

Competition. A limited number of companies compete with Supply Technologies to provide
supply management services for production parts and materials. Supply Technologies competes in
North America, Mexico, Europe and Asia, primarily on the basis of
its Total Supply
ManagementTM services, including engineering and design support, part usage and cost analysis,
supplier selection, quality assurance, bar coding, product packaging and tracking, just-in-time and
point-of-use delivery, electronic billing services and ongoing technical support, and its geographic
reach, extensive product selection, price and reputation for high service levels. Numerous North
American and foreign companies compete with Supply Technologies in manufacturing cold-formed
and cold-extruded products.

Recent Developments. During the third quarter of 2010, Supply Technologies completed the
acquisition of certain assets and assumed specific liabilities relating to the Assembly Components
Systems (“ACS”) business of Lawson Products, Inc. for $16.0 million in cash and a $2.2 million
subordinated promissory note payable in equal quarterly installments over three years. ACS is a
provider of supply chain management solutions for a broad range of production components
through its service centers throughout North America. We recorded a gain of $2.2 million
representing the excess of the aggregate fair value of purchased net assets over the purchase
price. See Note C to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.

Assembly Components

Our Assembly Components segment operates what we believe is one of the few aluminum
component suppliers that has the capability to provide a wide range of high-volume, high-quality
products utilizing a broad range of processes including gravity and low pressure permanent mold,
die-cast and lost-foam, as well as emerging alternative casting technologies. We also design and
manufacture fluid routing, injection molded rubber and thermoplastic and screw products.

Products and Services. Assembly Components manufactures cast aluminum components,
automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic products, fuel filler and hydraulic assemblies
for automotive, agricultural equipment, construction equipment, heavy-duty truck and marine
equipment industries. Assembly Components’ principal products include front engine covers,
control arms, knuckles, pump housings, clutch retainers and pistons, master cylinders, oil pans
and flywheel spacers, injected molded rubber and silicone products, including wire harnesses,
shock and vibration mounts, spark plug boots and nipples and general sealing gaskets, rubber and
thermoplastic hose and fuel filler assemblies. We produce our Assembly Components at nineteen
manufacturing facilities in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Tennessee, Florida, Mexico, China and the
Czech Republic. In addition, we also provide value-added services such as design engineering,
machining and part assembly.

Markets and Customers. The five largest customers, to which Assembly Components sells to
multiple operating divisions through sole-source contracts, accounted for approximately 45% and
49% of Assembly Components sales for 2012 and 2011, respectively. The loss of any one of these
customers could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition
of this segment.

Competition. Assembly Components competes principally on the basis of its ability to:
(1) engineer and manufacture high-quality,
cost-effective assemblies utilizing multiple
technologies in large volumes; (2) provide timely delivery; and (3) retain the manufacturing

6

flexibility necessary to quickly adjust to the needs of its customers. There are few domestic
companies with capabilities able to meet the customers’ stringent quality and service standards
and lean manufacturing techniques. As one of these suppliers, Assembly Components is well-
positioned to benefit as customers continue to consolidate their supplier base.

Recent Developments. On March 23, 2012, we completed the acquisition of FRS, a leading
manufacturer of automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic hose products and fuel filler
and hydraulic fluid assemblies, in an all cash transaction valued at $98.8 million. FRS products
include fuel filler, hydraulic, and thermoplastic assemblies and several forms of manufactured
hose including bulk and formed fuel, power steering, transmission oil cooling, hydraulic and
thermoplastic hose. FRS sells to automotive and industrial customers throughout North America,
Europe and Asia. FRS has five production facilities located in Florida, Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee
and the Czech Republic.

On November 30, 2012, we completed the acquisition of Elastomeros Tecnicos Moldeados Inc.
(“ETM”) for $1.1 million in cash, promissory notes payable for $0.5 million and $0.1 million
annually in each of the next four years, if ETM achieves certain earnings levels. ETM is a
provider of molded rubber products.

On September 30, 2010, we entered a Bill of Sale with Rome Die Casting LLC (“Rome”), a
producer of aluminum high pressure die castings, pursuant to which Rome agreed to transfer to
us substantially all of its assets in exchange for approximately $7.5 million of notes receivable due
from Rome held by us.

As a result of incurred losses in the third quarter of 2011, projected losses for fiscal year 2011
and planned restructuring, we evaluated the long-lived assets of its rubber products business unit
for impairment. Based on management’s analysis, certain long-lived assets were deemed
abandoned and were written down to their scrap or liquidation value and we recorded a charge of
$5.4 million.

Engineered Products

Our Engineered Products segment operates a diverse group of niche manufacturing
businesses that design and manufacture a broad range of highly-engineered products, including
induction heating and melting systems, pipe threading systems, and forged and machined
products. We manufacture these products in eleven domestic facilities and nine international
facilities in Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, China and Japan.

Products and Services. Our induction heating and melting business utilizes proprietary
technology and specializes in the engineering, construction, service and repair of induction
heating and melting systems, primarily for the ferrous and non-ferrous metals, silicon, coatings,
forging, foundry, automotive and construction equipment industries. Our induction heating and
melting systems are engineered and built to customer specifications and are used primarily for
melting, heating, and surface hardening of metals and curing of coatings. Approximately 53% of
our induction heating and melting systems’ revenues are derived from the sale of replacement
parts and provision of field service, primarily for the installed base of our own products. Our pipe
threading business serves the oil and gas industry. We also engineer and install mechanical
forging presses, sell spare parts and provide field service for the large existing base of mechanical
forging presses and hammers in North America. We machine, induction harden and surface finish
crankshafts and camshafts, used primarily in locomotives. We forge aerospace and defense
structural components such as landing gears and struts, as well as rail products such as railcar
center plates and draft lugs.

7

Markets and Customers. We sell

induction heating and other capital equipment to
component manufacturers and OEMs in the ferrous and non-ferrous metals, silicon, coatings,
forging, foundry, automotive, truck, construction equipment and oil and gas industries. We sell
forged and machined products to locomotive manufacturers, machining companies and sub-
assemblers who finish aerospace and defense products for OEMs, and railcar builders and
maintenance providers.

Competition. We compete with small-

to medium-sized domestic and international
equipment manufacturers on the basis of service capability, ability to meet customer
specifications, delivery performance and engineering expertise. We compete domestically and
internationally with small- to medium-sized forging and machining businesses on the basis of
product quality and precision.

Recent Developments. On December 31, 2010, through our subsidiary, Ajax Tocco Magnethermic,
we acquired the assets and the related induction heating intellectual property of ABP Induction’s U.S.
heating business operating as Pillar Induction (“Pillar”) for $10.3 million in cash. Pillar provides
complete turnkey automated induction power systems and aftermarket parts and service to a
worldwide market. See Note C to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.

Sales and Marketing

Supply Technologies markets its products and services in the United States, Mexico, Canada,
Western and Eastern Europe and East and South Asia primarily through its direct sales force,
which is assisted by applications engineers who provide the technical expertise necessary to assist
the engineering staff of OEM customers in designing new products and improving existing
products. Assembly Components primarily markets and sells its products in North America
through internal sales personnel and independent sales representatives. Engineered Products
primarily markets and sells its products in North America through both internal sales personnel
and independent sales representatives. Induction heating and pipe threading equipment is also
marketed and sold in Europe, Asia, Latin America and Africa through both internal sales
personnel and independent sales representatives. In some instances, the internal engineering
staff assists in the sales and marketing effort through joint design and applications-engineering
efforts with major customers.

Raw Materials and Suppliers

Supply Technologies purchases substantially all of its production components from third-
party suppliers. Supply Technologies has multiple sources of supply for its components. An
increasing portion of Supply Technologies’ production components are purchased from suppliers in
foreign countries, primarily Canada, Taiwan, China, South Korea, Singapore, India and multiple
European countries. Supply Technologies is dependent upon the ability of such suppliers to meet
stringent quality and performance standards and to conform to delivery schedules. Assembly
Components and Engineered Products purchase substantially all of their raw materials,
principally metals and certain component parts incorporated into their products, from third-party
suppliers and manufacturers. Most raw materials required by Assembly Components and
Engineered Products are commodity products available from several domestic suppliers.
Management believes that raw materials and component parts other than certain specialty
products are available from alternative sources.

Backlog

Management believes that backlog is not a meaningful measure for Supply Technologies, as a
require just-in-time delivery of production

majority of Supply Technologies’

customers

8

components. Management believes that Assembly Components’ backlog as of any particular date
is not a meaningful measure of sales for any future period as a significant portion of sales are on a
release or firm order basis. The backlog of Engineered Products’ orders believed to be firm as of
December 31, 2012 was $180.0 million compared with $192.0 million as of December 31, 2011.
Approximately $171.8 million of Engineered Products’ backlog as of December 31, 2012 is
scheduled to be shipped in 2013. The remainder is scheduled to be shipped in 2014.

Environmental, Health and Safety Regulations

We are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect
public health and the environment, particularly with regard to discharges and emissions, as well
as handling, storage, treatment and disposal, of various substances and wastes. Our failure to
comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations and permit requirements could result
in civil and criminal fines or penalties or enforcement actions, including regulatory or judicial
orders enjoining or curtailing operations or requiring corrective measures. Pursuant to certain
environmental laws, owners or operators of facilities may be liable for the costs of response or
other corrective actions for contamination identified at or emanating from current or former
locations, without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the
presence of any such contamination, and for related damages to natural resources. Additionally,
persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances or materials may be
liable for costs of response at sites where they are located, whether or not the site is owned or
operated by such person.

From time to time, we have incurred, and are presently incurring, costs and obligations for
correcting environmental noncompliance and remediating environmental conditions at certain of
our properties. In general, we have not experienced difficulty in complying with environmental
laws in the past, and compliance with environmental laws has not had a material adverse effect
on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. Our capital expenditures on
five years and such
facilities were not material during the past
environmental control
expenditures are not expected to be material to us in the foreseeable future.

We are currently, and may in the future be, required to incur costs relating to the
investigation or remediation of property, including property where we have disposed of our waste,
and for addressing environmental conditions. For instance, we have been identified as a
potentially responsible party at third-party sites under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or comparable state laws, which
provide for strict and, under certain circumstances,
liability. We are
participating in the cost of certain clean-up efforts at several of these sites. The availability of
third-party payments or insurance for environmental remediation activities is subject to risks
associated with the willingness and ability of the third party to make payments. However, our
share of such costs has not been material and, based on available information, we do not expect
our exposure at any of these locations to have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations, liquidity or financial condition.

Recent Developments

On March 23, 2012, we completed the acquisition of FRS, a leading manufacturer of
industrial hose products and fuel filler and hydraulic fluid assemblies, in an all cash transaction
valued at $98.8 million. FRS products include fuel filler, hydraulic, and thermoplastic assemblies
and several
forms of manufactured hose including bulk and formed fuel, power steering,
transmission oil cooling, hydraulic, and thermoplastic hose and has been integrated into our
Assembly Components segment. FRS sells to automotive and industrial customers throughout
North America, Europe and Asia. FRS has five production facilities located in Florida, Michigan,
Ohio, Tennessee and the Czech Republic. In connection with the acquisition of FRS, we amended
and restated our existing credit and security agreement, dated November 5, 2003, as amended
(the “Credit Agreement”), to, among other things, increase the revolving loan commitment from
$200.0 million to $220.0 million and provide a seven-year amortizing term loan for $25.0 million
that is secured by certain accounts receivable,
inventory, real estate and machinery and
equipment. We have the option, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, to increase the availability
under the revolving credit facility by $30.0 million.

During the second quarter of 2012, we agreed to settle the Evraz Highveld Steel and
Vanadium (“Evraz”) arbitration proceeding for the sum of $13.0 million in cash, which payment
was made in June 2012.

On November 30, 2012, we completed the acquisition of ETM for $1.1 million in cash,
promissory notes payable of $0.5 million and $0.1 million annually in each of the next four years,
if ETM achieves certain earnings levels. ETM is a provider of molded rubber products and has
been integrated into our Assembly Components segment.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following are certain risk factors that could affect our business, results of operations and
financial condition. These risks are not the only ones we face. If any of the following risks occur,
our business, results of operations or financial condition could be adversely affected.

Adverse credit market conditions may significantly affect our access to capital, cost of
capital and ability to meet liquidity needs.

Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets may adversely impact our ability
to access credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit to us in the future. These
market conditions may limit our ability to replace, in a timely manner, maturing liabilities and
access the capital necessary to grow and maintain our business. Accordingly, we may be forced to
delay raising capital or pay unattractive interest rates, which could increase our interest expense,
decrease our profitability and significantly reduce our financial
flexibility. Longer-term
disruptions in the capital and credit markets as a result of uncertainty, changing or increased

10

regulation, reduced alternatives or failures of significant financial institutions could adversely
affect our access to liquidity needed for our business. Any disruption could require us to take
measures to conserve cash until the markets stabilize or until alternative credit arrangements or
other funding for our business needs can be arranged. Such measures could include deferring
capital expenditures and reducing or eliminating future share repurchases or other discretionary
uses of cash. Overall, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be
materially adversely affected by disruptions in the credit markets.

Adverse global economic conditions may have significant effects on our customers and
suppliers that could result in material adverse effects on our business and operating
results.

Significant reductions in available capital and liquidity from banks and other providers of
credit, substantial reductions and fluctuations in equity and currency values worldwide, and
concerns that the worldwide economy may enter into a prolonged recessionary period, may
materially adversely affect our customers’ access to capital or willingness to spend capital on our
products or their ability to pay for products that they will order or have already ordered from us.
In addition, unfavorable global economic conditions may materially adversely affect our suppliers’
access to capital and liquidity with which they maintain their inventories, production levels and
product quality, which could cause them to raise prices or lower production levels.

These potential effects of the adverse global economic conditions are difficult to forecast and
mitigate. As a consequence, our operating results for a particular period are difficult to predict,
and, therefore, prior results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in future
periods. Any of the foregoing effects could have a material adverse effect on our business, results
of operations and financial condition.

Adverse global economic conditions may have significant effects on our customers that
would result in our inability to borrow or to meet our debt service coverage ratio in our
revolving credit facility.

As of December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with our debt service coverage ratio covenant
and other covenants contained in our revolving credit facility. While we expect to remain in
compliance throughout 2013, declines in demand in the automotive industry and in sales volumes
could adversely impact our ability to remain in compliance with certain of these financial
covenants. Additionally, to the extent our customers are adversely affected by a decline in the
economy in general, they may not be able to pay their accounts payable to us on a timely basis or
at all, which would make the accounts receivable ineligible for purposes of the revolving credit
facility and could reduce our borrowing base and our ability to borrow.

The industries in which we operate are cyclical and are affected by the economy in
general.

We sell products to customers in industries that experience cyclicality (expectancy of
recurring periods of economic growth and slowdown) in demand for products and may experience
substantial increases and decreases in business volume throughout economic cycles. Industries we
serve, including the automotive and vehicle parts, heavy-duty truck, industrial equipment, steel,
rail, electrical distribution and controls, aerospace and defense, recreational equipment, HVAC,
electrical components, appliance and semiconductor equipment industries, are affected by
international trade. A
consumer spending, general economic conditions and the impact of
downturn in any of the industries we serve could have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition, liquidity and results of operations.

11

Because a significant portion of our sales is to the automotive and heavy-duty truck
industries, a decrease in the demand of these industries or the loss of any of our major
customers in these industries could adversely affect our financial health.

Demand for certain of our products is affected by, among other things, the relative strength or
weakness of the automotive and heavy-duty truck industries. The domestic automotive and heavy-
duty truck industries are highly cyclical and may be adversely affected by international
competition. In addition, the automotive and heavy-duty truck industries are significantly
unionized and subject to work slowdowns and stoppages resulting from labor disputes. We derived
29% and 7% of our net sales during the year ended December 31, 2012 from the automobile and
heavy-duty truck industries, respectively.

The loss of a portion of business to any of our major automotive or heavy-duty truck
customers could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flow and results of
operations. We cannot assure you that we will maintain or improve our relationships in these
industries or that we will continue to supply these customers at current levels.

Our Supply Technologies customers are generally not contractually obligated to
purchase products and services from us.

Most of the products and services are provided to our Supply Technologies customers under
purchase orders as opposed to long-term contracts. When we do enter into long-term contracts
with our Supply Technologies customers, many of them only establish pricing terms and do not
obligate our customers to buy required minimum amounts from us or to buy from us exclusively.
Accordingly, many of our Supply Technologies customers may decrease the amount of products
and services that they purchase from us or even stop purchasing from us altogether, either of
which could have a material adverse effect on our net sales and profitability.

We are dependent on key customers.

We rely on several key customers. For the year ended December 31, 2012, our ten largest
customers accounted for approximately 29% of our net sales. Many of our customers place orders
for products on an as-needed basis and operate in cyclical industries and, as a result, their order
levels have varied from period to period in the past and may vary significantly in the future. Due
to competitive issues, we have lost key customers in the past and may again in the future.
Customer orders are dependent upon their markets and may be subject to delays or cancellations.
As a result of dependence on our key customers, we could experience a material adverse effect on
our business and results of operations if any of the following were to occur:

• the loss of any key customer, in whole or in part;

• the insolvency or bankruptcy of any key customer;

• a declining market in which customers reduce orders or demand reduced prices; or

• a strike or work stoppage at a key customer facility, which could affect both their suppliers

and customers.

If any of our key customers become insolvent or file for bankruptcy, our ability to recover
accounts receivable from that customer would be adversely affected and any payments we
received in the preference period prior to a bankruptcy filing may be potentially recoverable,
which could adversely impact our results of operations.

12

We operate in highly competitive industries.

The markets in which all three of our segments sell their products are highly competitive.
Some of our competitors are large companies that have greater financial resources than we have.
We believe that the principal competitive factors for our Supply Technologies segment are an
approach reflecting long-term business partnership and reliability, sourced product quality and
conformity to customer specifications, timeliness of delivery, price and design and engineering
capabilities. We believe that the principal competitive factors for our Assembly Components and
Engineered Products segments are product quality and conformity to customer specifications,
design and engineering capabilities, product development, timeliness of delivery and price. The
rapidly evolving nature of the markets in which we compete may attract new entrants as they
perceive opportunities, and our competitors may foresee the course of market development more
accurately than we do. In addition, our competitors may develop products that are superior to our
products or may adapt more quickly than we do to new technologies or evolving customer
requirements.

We expect competitive pressures in our markets to remain strong. These pressures arise from
existing competitors, other companies that may enter our existing or future markets and, in some
cases, our customers, which may decide to internally produce items we sell. We cannot assure you
that we will be able to compete successfully with our competitors. Failure to compete successfully
could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

The loss of key executives could adversely impact us.

Our success depends upon the efforts, abilities and expertise of our executive officers and
other senior managers, including Edward Crawford, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,
and Matthew Crawford, our President and Chief Operating Officer, as well as the president of
each of our operating units. An event of default occurs under our revolving credit facility if
Messrs. E. Crawford and M. Crawford or certain of their related parties own in the aggregate less
than 15% of our outstanding common stock, and if at such time neither Mr. E. Crawford nor
Mr. M. Crawford holds the office of chairman, chief executive officer or president. The loss of the
services of Messrs. E. Crawford and M. Crawford, senior and executive officers, and/or other key
individuals could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of
operations.

We may encounter difficulty in expanding our business through targeted acquisitions.

We have pursued, and may continue to pursue, targeted acquisition opportunities that we
believe would complement our business. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in
consummating any acquisitions.

Any targeted acquisitions will be accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in
acquisitions of businesses. We may not successfully overcome these risks or any other problems
encountered in connection with any of our acquisitions,
including the possible inability to
integrate an acquired business’ operations, IT technologies, services and products into our
business, diversion of management’s attention, the assumption of unknown liabilities, increases in
our indebtedness, the failure to achieve the strategic objectives of those acquisitions and other
unanticipated problems, some or all of which could materially and adversely affect us. The process
of integrating operations could cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, our activities.
Any delays or difficulties encountered in connection with any acquisition and the integration of
our operations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
financial condition or prospects of our business.

13

Our Supply Technologies business depends upon third parties for substantially all of
our component parts.

Our Supply Technologies business purchases substantially all of its component parts from
third-party suppliers and manufacturers. As such, it is subject to the risk of price fluctuations and
periodic delays in the delivery of component parts. Failure by suppliers to continue to supply us
with these component parts on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, could have a material
adverse effect on us. We depend upon the ability of these suppliers, among other things, to meet
stringent performance and quality specifications and to conform to delivery schedules. Failure by
third-party suppliers to comply with these and other requirements could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

The raw materials used in our production processes and by our suppliers of component
parts are subject to price and supply fluctuations that could increase our costs of
production and adversely affect our results of operations.

Our supply of raw materials for our Assembly Components and Engineered Products
businesses could be interrupted for a variety of reasons, including availability and pricing. Prices
for raw materials necessary for production have fluctuated significantly in the past and significant
increases could adversely affect our results of operations and profit margins. While we generally
attempt to pass along increased raw materials prices to our customers in the form of price
increases, there may be a time delay between the increased raw materials prices and our ability to
increase the price of our products, or we may be unable to increase the prices of our products due
to pricing pressure or other factors.

Our suppliers of component parts, particularly in our Supply Technologies business, may
significantly and quickly increase their prices in response to increases in costs of the raw
materials, such as steel, that they use to manufacture our component parts. We may not be able to
increase our prices commensurate with our increased costs. Consequently, our results of
operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.

The energy costs involved in our production processes and transportation are subject
to fluctuations that are beyond our control and could significantly increase our costs
of production.

Our manufacturing process and the transportation of raw materials, components and finished goods
are energy intensive. Our manufacturing processes are dependent on adequate supplies of electricity and
natural gas. A substantial increase in the cost of transportation fuel, natural gas or electricity could have
a material adverse effect on our margins. We may experience higher than anticipated gas costs in the
future, which could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, a disruption or curtailment in
supply could have a material adverse effect on our production and sales levels.

Potential product liability risks exist from the products that we sell.

Our businesses expose us to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the design,
manufacture and sale of our products and products of third-party vendors that we use or resell.
While we currently maintain what we believe to be suitable and adequate product liability
insurance, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our insurance on acceptable
terms or that our insurance will provide adequate protection against potential liabilities. In the
event of a claim against us, a lack of sufficient insurance coverage could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. Moreover, even if we maintain
adequate insurance, any successful claim could have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition, liquidity and results of operations.

14

Some of our employees belong to labor unions, and strikes or work stoppages could
adversely affect our operations.

As of December 31, 2012, we were a party to eight collective bargaining agreements with
various labor unions that covered approximately 600 full-time employees. Our inability to
negotiate acceptable contracts with these unions could result in, among other things, strikes, work
stoppages or other slowdowns by the affected workers and increased operating costs as a result of
higher wages or benefits paid to union members. If the unionized workers were to engage in a
strike, work stoppage or other slowdown, or other employees were to become unionized, we could
experience a significant disruption of our operations and higher ongoing labor costs, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We operate and source internationally, which exposes us to the risks of doing business
abroad.

Our operations are subject to the risks of doing business abroad, including the following:

• fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

• limitations on ownership and on repatriation of earnings;

• transportation delays and interruptions;

• political, social and economic instability and disruptions;

• potential disruption that could be caused with the partial or complete reconfiguration of the

European Union;

• government embargoes or foreign trade restrictions;

• the imposition of duties and tariffs and other trade barriers;

• import and export controls;

• labor unrest and current and changing regulatory environments;

• the potential for nationalization of enterprises;

• disadvantages of competing against companies from countries that are not subject to

U.S. laws and regulations including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”);

• difficulties in staffing and managing multinational operations;

• limitations on our ability to enforce legal rights and remedies; and

• potentially adverse tax consequences.

In addition, we could be adversely affected by violations of the FCPA and similar worldwide
anti-bribery laws. The FCPA and similar anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally
prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to non-U.S. officials
for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Our policies mandate compliance with these
anti-bribery laws. We operate in many parts of the world that have experienced governmental
corruption to some degree and, in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti-bribery laws
may conflict with local customs and practices. We cannot assure you that our internal controls
and procedures always will protect us from the reckless or criminal acts committed by our
employees or agents. If we are found to be liable for FCPA violations (either due to our own acts or
our inadvertence or due to the acts or inadvertence of others), we could suffer from criminal or
civil penalties or other sanctions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Any of the events enumerated above could have an adverse effect on our operations in the
future by reducing the demand for our products and services, decreasing the prices at which we

15

can sell our products or otherwise having an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or
results of operations. We cannot assure you that we will continue to operate in compliance with
applicable customs, currency exchange control regulations, transfer pricing regulations or any
other laws or regulations to which we may be subject. We also cannot assure you that these laws
will not be modified.

Unexpected delays in the shipment of large, long-lead industrial equipment could
adversely affect our results of operations in the period in which shipment was
anticipated.

Long-lead industrial equipment contracts are a significant and growing part of our business.
We primarily use the percentage of completion method to account
for these contracts.
Nevertheless, under this method, a large proportion of revenues and earnings on such contracts
are recognized close to shipment of the equipment. Unanticipated shipment delays on large
contracts could postpone recognition of revenue and earnings into future periods. Accordingly, if
shipment was anticipated in the fourth quarter of a year, unanticipated shipment delays could
adversely affect results of operations in that year.

We are subject to significant environmental, health and safety laws and regulations
and related compliance expenditures and liabilities.

Our businesses are subject to many foreign, federal, state and local environmental, health
and safety laws and regulations, particularly with respect to the use, handling, treatment,
storage, discharge and disposal of substances and hazardous wastes used or generated in our
manufacturing processes. Compliance with these laws and regulations is a significant factor in
our business. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur significant expenditures to comply
with applicable environmental laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with applicable
environmental laws and regulations and permit requirements could result in civil or criminal
fines or penalties or enforcement actions, including regulatory or judicial orders enjoining or
curtailing operations or requiring corrective measures, installation of pollution control equipment
or remedial actions.

We are currently, and may in the future be, required to incur costs relating to the
investigation or remediation of property, including property where we have disposed of our waste,
and for addressing environmental conditions. Some environmental laws and regulations impose
liability and responsibility on present and former owners, operators or users of facilities and sites
for contamination at such facilities and sites without regard to causation or knowledge of
contamination. In addition, we occasionally evaluate various alternatives with respect to our
facilities, including possible dispositions or closures. Investigations undertaken in connection with
these activities may lead to discoveries of contamination that must be remediated, and closures of
facilities may trigger compliance requirements that are not applicable to operating facilities.
Consequently, we cannot assure you that existing or future circumstances, the development of
new facts or the failure of third parties to address contamination at current or former facilities or
properties will not require significant expenditures by us.

We expect to continue to be subject to increasingly stringent environmental and health and
safety laws and regulations. It is difficult to predict the future interpretation and development of
environmental and health and safety laws and regulations or their impact on our future earnings
and operations. We anticipate that compliance will continue to require increased capital
expenditures and operating costs. Any increase in these costs, or unanticipated liabilities arising
from, among other things, discovery of previously unknown conditions or more aggressive
enforcement actions, could adversely affect our results of operations, and there is no assurance
that they will not exceed our reserves or have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

16

If our information systems fail, our business could be materially affected.

We believe that our information systems are an integral part of the Supply Technologies
segment and, to a lesser extent, the Assembly Components and Engineered Products segments.
We depend on our information systems to process orders, manage inventory and accounts
receivable collections, purchase products, maintain cost-effective operations, route and re-route
orders and provide superior service to our customers. We cannot assure you that a disruption in
the operation of our information systems used by Supply Technologies, including the failure of the
supply chain management software to function properly, or those used by Assembly Components
and Engineered Products will not occur. Any such disruption could have a material adverse effect
on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

Operating problems in our business may materially adversely affect our financial
condition and results of operations.

We are subject to the usual hazards associated with manufacturing and the related storage
and transportation of raw materials, products and waste, including explosions, fires, leaks,
discharges, inclement weather, natural disasters, mechanical failure, unscheduled downtime and
transportation interruption or calamities. The occurrence of material operating problems at our
facilities may have a material adverse effect on our operations as a whole, both during and after
the period of operational difficulties.

Changes in accounting standards or inaccurate estimates or assumptions in the
application of accounting policies could adversely affect our financial results.

Our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our
financial condition and results of operations. Some of these polices require use of estimates and
assumptions that may affect the reported value of our assets or liabilities and financial results
and are critical because they require management to make difficult, subjective, and complex
judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Those who set and interpret the
accounting standards (such as the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the SEC, and our
independent registered public accounting firm) may amend or even reverse their previous
interpretations or positions on how these standards should be applied. These changes can be hard
to predict and can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results
of operations. In some cases, we could be required to apply a new or revised standard
retroactively, resulting in the restatement of prior period financial statements. For a further
discussion of some of our critical accounting policies and standards and recent changes, see
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations and Note A to the consolidated financial statements included
elsewhere herein.

We have a significant amount of goodwill, and any future goodwill impairment
charges could adversely impact our results of operations.

As of December 31, 2012, we had goodwill of $49.7 million. The future occurrence of a
potential indicator of impairment, such as a significant adverse change in legal factors or business
climate, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, a material
negative change in relationships with significant customers, strategic decisions made in response
to economic or competitive conditions, loss of key personnel or a more-likely-than-not expectation
that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or disposed of, could
result in goodwill impairment charges, which could adversely impact our results of operations. We
have recorded goodwill impairment charges in the past, and such charges materially impacted our

17

historical results of operations. For additional information, see Note D, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.

Our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and our President and Chief
Operating Officer collectively beneficially own a significant portion of our
outstanding common stock and their interests may conflict with yours.

As of December 31, 2012, Edward Crawford, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
Officer, and Matthew Crawford, our President and Chief Operating Officer, collectively
beneficially owned approximately 26% of our common stock. Mr. E. Crawford is Mr. M. Crawford’s
father. Their interests could conflict with your interests. For example, if we encounter financial
difficulties or are unable to pay our debts as they mature, the interests of Messrs. E. Crawford
and M. Crawford may conflict with your interests as a shareholder.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

None.

Item 2. Properties

As of December 31, 2012, our operations included numerous manufacturing and supply chain
logistics services facilities located in 26 states in the United States and in Puerto Rico, as well as
in Asia, Canada, Europe and Mexico. Approximately 88% of the available square footage was
located in the United States. Approximately 55% of the available square footage was owned. As of
December 31, 2012, approximately 21% of the available domestic square footage was used by the
Supply Technologies segment, 42% was used by the Engineered Products segment and 37% was
used by the Assembly Components segment. Approximately 43% of the available foreign square
footage was used by the Supply Technologies segment, 39% was used by the Engineered Products
segment and 18% was used by the Assembly Components segment. In the opinion of management,
our facilities are generally well maintained and are suitable and adequate for their intended uses.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various pending and threatened lawsuits in which claims for monetary
damages are asserted in the ordinary course of business. While any litigation involves an element
of uncertainty, in the opinion of management, liabilities, if any, arising from currently pending or
threatened litigation are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition,
liquidity or results of operations.

19

In addition to the routine lawsuits and asserted claims noted above, we were a party to the

lawsuits and legal proceedings described below as of December 31, 2012:

We were a co-defendant

in approximately 280 cases asserting claims on behalf of
approximately 600 plaintiffs alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. These
asbestos cases generally relate to production and sale of asbestos-containing products and allege
various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability, and seek
compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages.

In every asbestos case in which we are named as a party, the complaints are filed against
multiple named defendants. In substantially all of the asbestos cases, the plaintiffs either claim
damages in excess of a specified amount, typically a minimum amount sufficient to establish
jurisdiction of the court in which the case was filed (jurisdictional minimums generally range from
$25,000 to $75,000), or do not specify the monetary damages sought. To the extent that any
specific amount of damages is sought, the amount applies to claims against all named defendants.

There are only seven asbestos cases, involving 25 plaintiffs, that plead specified damages. In
each of the seven cases, the plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages based on a
variety of potentially alternative causes of action. In three cases, the plaintiff has alleged
compensatory damages in the amount of $3.0 million for four separate causes of action and
$1.0 million for another cause of action and punitive damages in the amount of $10.0 million. In
the fourth case, the plaintiff has alleged against each named defendant, compensatory and
punitive damages, each in the amount of $10.0 million, for seven separate causes of action. In the
fifth case, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory damages in the amount of $20.0 million for three
separate causes of action and $5.0 million for another cause of action and punitive damages in the
amount of $20.0 million. In the remaining two cases, the plaintiffs have each alleged against each
named defendant, compensatory and punitive damages, each in the amount of $50.0 million, for
four separate causes of action.

Historically, we have been dismissed from asbestos cases on the basis that the plaintiff
incorrectly sued one of our subsidiaries or because the plaintiff failed to identify any asbestos-
containing product manufactured or sold by us or our subsidiaries. We intend to vigorously defend
these asbestos cases, and believe we will continue to be successful in being dismissed from such
cases. However, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of asbestos-related lawsuits,
claims and proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of personal injury litigation. Despite this
uncertainty, and although our results of operations and cash flows for a particular period could be
adversely affected by asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings, management believes
that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our
financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Among the factors management considered
in reaching this conclusion were: (a) our historical success in being dismissed from these types of
lawsuits on the bases mentioned above; (b) many cases have been improperly filed against one of
our subsidiaries; (c) in many cases the plaintiffs have been unable to establish any causal
relationship to us or our products or premises; (d) in many cases, the plaintiffs have been unable
to demonstrate that they have suffered any identifiable injury or compensable loss at all or that
any injuries that they have incurred did in fact result from alleged exposure to asbestos; and
(e) the complaints assert claims against multiple defendants and, in most cases, the damages
alleged are not attributed to individual defendants. Additionally, we do not believe that the
amounts claimed in any of the asbestos cases are meaningful indicators of our potential exposure
because the amounts claimed typically bear no relation to the extent of the plaintiff’s injury, if
any.

20

Our cost of defending these lawsuits has not been material to date and, based upon available
information, our management does not expect its future costs for asbestos-related lawsuits to have
a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial position.

One of our subsidiaries, Ajax Tocco Magnethermic (“ATM”), which is included in the
Engineered Products segment, was a party to a binding arbitration proceeding pending in South
Africa with its customer Evraz Highveld Steel and Vanadium (“Evraz”). The arbitration involved a
dispute over the design and installation of a melting furnace. Evraz sought binding arbitration in
September 2011 for breach of contract and sought compensatory damages in the amount of $37.0
million, as well as fees and expenses related to the arbitration. ATM counterclaimed in the
arbitration, alleging breach of contract for non-payment of $2.7 million as well as fees and
expenses related to the arbitration. The arbitration was scheduled to commence in June 2012.
Prior to the start of the arbitration, after complete evaluation of Evraz’s evidence, consideration of
the jurisdiction of the matter, the uncertainty of a specific outcome and other pertinent facts noted
in preparation for the arbitration, we entered into a settlement agreement with Evraz pursuant to
which we agreed to settle all claims subject to the arbitration proceeding by paying Evraz $13.0
million in cash, which payment was made in June 2012. The $2.7 million amount receivable from
Evraz had been previously reserved and was written off in conjunction with the settlement.

ATM is the defendant in a lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Arkansas. The plaintiff is IPSCO Tubulars Inc. d/b/a TMK IPSCO. The
complaint alleges claims for breach of contract, gross negligence and constructive fraud. TMK
IPSCO is seeking approximately $6.0 million in direct and $4.0 million in consequential damages
as well as an unspecified amount of punitive damages. ATM denies the allegations against it,
believes it has a number of meritorious defenses and is vigorously defending the lawsuit. A motion
for partial summary judgment, which was recently filed by ATM, is currently pending before the
district court. A bench trial is set to begin in April of 2013.

(a) In each of the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008, we recorded
restructuring and asset impairment charges related to exiting product lines and closing or
consolidating operating facilities. The restructuring charges related to the write-down of
inventory, have no cash impact and are reflected by an increase in cost of products sold in the
applicable period. The restructuring charges relating to asset impairment attributable to the
closing or consolidating of operating facilities have no cash impact and are reflected in the
restructuring and impairment charges. The charges for restructuring and severance are
accruals for cash expenses. We made cash payments of $0.1 million and $0.5 million in the
years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to our severance accrued
liabilities. The table below provides a summary of these restructuring and impairment
charges.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

and Results of Operations

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and
its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The historical financial information discussed below is not directly comparable on a year-to-year
basis, primarily due to recording of a reversal of a tax valuation allowance in 2011, restructuring
and impairment charges in 2011 and 2010, acquisitions in 2012 and 2010 and refinancing in 2012
and 2011.

Executive Overview

We are an industrial Total Supply ManagementTM and diversified manufacturing business,
operating in three segments: Supply Technologies, Assembly Components and Engineered
Products. Our Supply Technologies business provides our customers with Total Supply
ManagementTM, a proactive solutions approach that manages the efficiencies of every aspect of
supplying production parts and materials to our customers’ manufacturing floor, from strategic
planning to program implementation. Total Supply ManagementTM includes such services as
engineering and design support, part usage and cost analysis, supplier selection, quality
assurance, bar coding, product packaging and tracking, just-in-time and point-of-use delivery,
electronic billing services and ongoing technical support. The principal markets of Supply
Technologies are in the heavy-duty truck, automotive and vehicle parts, electrical distribution and
controls, consumer electronics, recreational equipment, recreational vehicles, HVAC, agricultural
and construction equipment, semiconductor equipment, aerospace and defense, and appliance
industries. Assembly Components manufactures industrial hose and injected molded rubber
components and fuel filler assemblies. In addition, Assembly Components casts and machines

25

aluminum engine, transmission, brake, suspension and other components such as pump housings,
clutch retainers/pistons, control arms, knuckles, master cylinders, pinion housings, brake calipers,
oil pans and flywheel spacers for automotive, agricultural, construction, heavy-duty truck and
marine OEMs, primarily on a sole-source basis. Assembly Components also provides value-added
services such as design and engineering and assembly. Engineered Products operates a diverse
group of niche manufacturing businesses that design and manufacture a broad range of highly-
engineered products including induction heating and melting systems, pipe threading systems,
industrial oven systems and forged and machined products. Engineered Products also produces
and provides services and spare parts for the equipment it manufactures. The principal customers
of Engineered Products are OEMs, sub-assemblers and end users in the ferrous and non-ferrous
metals, silicone, coatings, forging, foundry, heavy-duty truck, construction equipment, automotive,
oil and gas, rail and locomotive manufacturing and aerospace and defense industries. Sales,
earnings and other relevant financial data for these three segments are provided in Note B to the
consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere herein.

Sales and profitability continued to grow substantially in 2012, continuing the trend of the
prior year, as the domestic and international economies come out of the recession. Net sales
increased 17% and net income increased 8% in 2012 compared to 2011. Net income in 2012 was
affected by an unfavorable $13.0 million litigation settlement. Net income in 2011 was affected by
a favorable $16.8 million reversal of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, partially offset by
$5.4 million of impairment charges and debt refinancing costs of $7.3 million.

Approximately 29% of our consolidated net sales are to the automotive markets.

During the third quarter of 2010, Supply Technologies completed the acquisition of certain
assets and assumed specific liabilities relating to the ACS business of Lawson Products, Inc. for
$16.0 million in cash and a $2.2 million subordinated promissory note payable in equal quarterly
installments over three years. ACS is a provider of supply chain management solutions for a
broad range of production components through its service centers throughout North America. We
recorded a gain of $2.2 million representing the excess of the aggregate fair value of purchased net
assets over the purchase price. See Note C to the consolidated financial statements included
elsewhere herein.

On September 30, 2010, we entered a Bill of Sale with Rome, a producer of aluminum high
pressure die castings, pursuant to which Rome agreed to transfer to us substantially all of its
assets in exchange for approximately $7.5 million of notes receivable due from Rome held by us.
See Note C to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.

On December 31, 2010, through our subsidiary, Ajax Tocco Magnethermic, we acquired the
assets and the related induction heating intellectual property of Pillar for $10.3 million in cash.
Pillar provides complete turnkey automated induction power systems and aftermarket parts and
service to a worldwide market. See Note C to the consolidated financial statements included
elsewhere herein.

During the third quarter of 2010, we recorded an asset impairment charge of $3.5 million

related to the writedown of one of our investments.

On April 7, 2011, we completed the sale of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of
8.125% senior notes due 2021 (the “Notes”). The Notes bear an interest rate of 8.125% per annum,
payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year commencing on October 1,
2011. The Notes mature on April 1, 2021. In connection with the sale of the Notes, we also entered
into an amended credit agreement. We also purchased all of our outstanding $183.8 million

26

aggregate principal amount of the senior subordinated notes due 2014 (the “Senior Subordinated
Notes”) that were not held by our affiliates pursuant to a tender offer and subsequent redemption,
repaid all of the term loan A and term loan B outstanding under our then existing credit facility
and retired the Senior Subordinated Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $26.2 million that
were held by an affiliate. We incurred debt extinguishment costs related to premiums and other
transaction costs associated with the tender offer and subsequent redemption of the Senior
Subordinated Notes and wrote off deferred financing costs totaling $7.3 million and recorded a
provision for foreign income taxes of $2.1 million resulting from the retirement of the Senior
Subordinated Notes that were held by an affiliate.

During the third quarter of 2011, we recorded an asset impairment charge of $5.4 million
associated with the underperformance of the assets of its rubber products business unit within the
Assembly Components business segment.

On March 23, 2012, we completed the acquisition of FRS, a leading manufacturer of
automotive and industrial rubber and thermoplastic hose products and fuel filler and hydraulic
fluid assemblies, in an all cash transaction valued at $96.0 million, net of cash acquired. FRS
products include fuel
forms of
manufactured hose including bulk and formed fuel, power steering, transmission oil cooling,
hydraulic and thermoplastic hose. FRS sells to automotive and industrial customers throughout
North America, Europe and Asia. FRS has five production facilities located in Florida, Michigan,
Ohio, Tennessee and the Czech Republic. FRS is included in our Assembly Components segment.

filler, hydraulic, and thermoplastic assemblies and several

In connection with the acquisition of FRS, we amended and restated our existing credit and
security agreement, dated November 5, 2003, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”), to, among
other things, increase the revolving loan commitment from $200.0 million to $220.0 million and
provide a seven-year amortizing term loan for $25.0 million that is secured by certain accounts
receivable, inventory, real estate and machinery and equipment. We funded the acquisition with
cash of $40.0 million, the $25.0 million term loan provided by the Credit Agreement and
$33.8 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility provided by the Credit Agreement.

During the second quarter of 2012, we agreed to settle the Evraz Highveld Steel and
Vanadium (“Evraz”) arbitration proceeding for the sum of $13.0 million in cash, which payment
was made in June 2012.

On November 30, 2012, we completed the acquisition of ETM for $1.1 million in cash,
promissory notes payable of $0.5 million and $0.1 million annually in each of the next four years,
if ETM achieves certain earnings levels. ETM is a provider of molded rubber products and has
been integrated into our Assembly Components segment.

Net sales increased $167.4 million to $1,134.0 million in 2012 compared to $966.6 million in
2011 as we experienced volume increases in each of our segments. Supply Technologies sales
increased 1% primarily due to volume increases in the heavy-duty truck, recreational, computer
office equipment, consumer electronics and lawn and garden industries, which were offset
primarily by declines in the appliance, semi-conductor, HVAC and instruments industries.
Assembly Components sales increased 93%, primarily from sales of $152.4 million resulting from
the acquisition of FRS and increased sales in the rubber products business unit, offset by lower
sales in the aluminum business unit. Engineered Products sales increased 6% primarily due to
increased business in the capital equipment and forged and machined products business units.

generated a 60 basis point decrease in SG&A expenses as a percent of sales. SG&A expenses
increased $11.6 million in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily due to $7.6 million of incremental
expense associated with FRS, increases in payroll and payroll related expenses of $1.9 million,
FRS acquisition expenses of $1.1 million and $1.0 million of legal expenses associated with the
Evraz litigation settlement.

Interest expense decreased $5.8 million in 2012 compared to 2011, primarily due to higher
debt extinguishment costs in 2011 as a result of the refinancing of our Senior Subordinated Notes
and the amendment of the Credit Agreement. Average borrowings in 2012 were higher when
compared to 2011 due to additional borrowings to fund the acquisition of FRS and the Evraz
litigation settlement. The lower average borrowing rate in 2012 was due primarily to the interest
rate mix of our credit facility and Notes when compared to the interest rate mix in 2011.

As of December 31, 2011, we were not in a cumulative three-year loss position and
determined that it was more likely than not that our U. S. net deferred tax assets would be
realized. As of December 31, 2011, we released $16.8 million of the valuation allowance
attributable to continuing operations in 2011.

Our net operating loss carryforward precluded the payment of most U.S. federal income taxes
in both 2012 and 2011. At December 31, 2012, we had fully utilized the net operating loss
carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Net sales increased $153.1 million to $966.6 million in 2011 compared to $813.5 million in
2010 as we experienced volume increases in the Supply Technologies and Engineered Products
segments. Supply Technologies sales increased 23% primarily due to volume ($53.8 million)
increases in the heavy-duty truck, electrical, industrial equipment, auto, recreational, HVAC,
furniture, agricultural and construction equipment industries and price increases of $7.3 million,
which were offset primarily by declines in the instruments, medical and semi-conductor
industries. In addition, there were $29.8 million of
incremental sales resulting from the
acquisition of the ACS business. Assembly Components sales decreased 9%, resulting primarily
from the completion of certain automotive supply contracts ($31.7 million), a minor decline in
sales in the rubber products business unit, offset by sales of $9.6 million resulting from the
acquisition of the Rome business and price increases of $5.4 million. Engineered Products sales
increased 33% primarily due to increased business in both the capital equipment and forged and
machined products business units. In addition, there were $26.3 million of incremental sales
resulting from the acquisition of Pillar.

We released $16.8 million of the valuation allowance attributable to continuing operations in
2011 compared to $5.8 million in 2010. As of December 31, 2011, we were not in a cumulative
three-year loss position and determined that it was more likely than not that our U.S. net
deferred tax assets would be realized. As of December 31, 2010, we determined that it was not
more likely than not that our net U.S. and certain foreign deferred tax assets would be realized.

31

Our net operating loss carryforward precluded the payment of most U.S. federal income taxes
in both 2011 and 2010. At December 31, 2011, we had net operating loss carryforwards for U.S.
federal income tax purposes of approximately $10.4 million, which will expire between 2024 and
2031.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

As of December 31, 2012, we had $101.9 million outstanding under the revolving credit
facility, approximately $60.4 million of unused borrowing availability under the revolving credit
facility and cash and cash equivalents of $44.4 million.

Our liquidity needs are primarily for working capital and capital expenditures. Our primary
sources of liquidity have been funds provided by operations and funds available from existing
bank credit arrangements and the sale of our long-term debt securities. On April 7, 2011, we
completed the sale of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes. The Notes bear an
interest rate of 8.125% per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and
October 1 of each year commencing October 1, 2011. The Notes mature on April 1, 2021. In 2003,
we entered into the Credit Agreement with a group of banks which, as subsequently amended,
matures at April 7, 2016 and, as amended, currently provides for a revolving credit facility with
availability of up to $220.0 million subject to an asset-based formula and a term loan for $25.0
million that is secured by certain accounts receivable, inventory, real estate and machinery and
equipment. We have the option to increase the availability under the revolving loan portion of the
credit facility by $30.0 million. The revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all our
accounts receivable and inventory in the United States and Canada. Borrowings from this
revolving credit facility will be used for general corporate purposes. Amounts borrowed under the
revolving credit facility may be borrowed at either (i) LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75% or (ii) the bank’s
prime lending rate minus .25% to 1.00%, at our election. The LIBOR-based interest rate is
dependent on our debt service coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Under the
Credit Agreement, a detailed borrowing base formula provides borrowing availability to us based
on percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Interest on the term loan is at either
(i) LIBOR plus 2.75% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate plus .25% at our election. The term loan
is amortized based on a seven-year schedule with the balance due at maturity (April 7, 2016).

Current financial resources (working capital and available bank borrowing arrangements)
and anticipated funds from operations are expected to be adequate to meet current cash
requirements for at least the next twelve months. The future availability of bank borrowings
under the revolving loan portion of the credit facility is based on our ability to meet a debt service
ratio covenant, which could be materially impacted by negative economic trends. Failure to meet
the debt service ratio could materially impact the availability and interest rate of future
borrowings.

We may from time to time seek to refinance, retire or purchase our outstanding debt through
cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately
negotiated transactions or otherwise. We may also repurchase shares of our outstanding common
stock. Any such actions will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements,
contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the credit markets may adversely impact the
availability of credit already arranged and the availability and cost of credit in the future. These
market conditions may limit our ability to replace, in a timely manner, maturing liabilities and
access the capital necessary to grow and maintain its business. Accordingly, we may be forced to
delay raising capital or pay unattractive interest rates, which could increase our interest expense,
decrease our profitability and significantly reduce its financial flexibility.

32

We had cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries of $42.2 million and $61.2 million
at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. For each of our foreign subsidiaries, we make a
determination regarding the amount of earnings intended for permanent reinvestment, with the
balance, if any, available to be repatriated to the United States. The cash held by foreign subsidiaries
for permanent reinvestment is generally used to finance the foreign subsidiaries’ operational
activities and/or future foreign investments. At December 31, 2012, management believed that
sufficient liquidity was available in the United States, and it is our current intention to permanently
reinvest undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries outside of the United States. We have no
intention to repatriate the approximately $77.2 million of undistributed earnings of our foreign
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012. If we were to repatriate these earnings, there would potentially
be an adverse tax impact.

At December 31, 2012, our debt service coverage ratio was 2.3, and, therefore, we were in
compliance with the debt service ratio covenant contained in the Credit Agreement. We were also
in compliance with the other covenants contained in the Credit Agreement as of December 31,
2012. The debt service coverage ratio is calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter and is based on
the most recently ended four fiscal quarters of consolidated EBITDA minus cash taxes paid,
minus unfunded capital expenditures, plus cash tax refunds to consolidated debt charges that are
consolidated cash interest expense plus scheduled principal payments on indebtedness plus
scheduled reductions in our term debt as defined in the Credit Agreement. The debt service
coverage ratio must be greater than 1.0 and not less than 1.1 for any two consecutive fiscal
quarters. While we expect to remain in compliance throughout 2013, declines in sales volumes in
2013 could adversely impact our ability to remain in compliance with certain of these financial
covenants. Additionally, to the extent our customers are adversely affected by declines in the
economy in general, they may not be able to pay their accounts payable to us on a timely basis or
at all, which would make the accounts receivable ineligible for purposes of the revolving credit
facility and could reduce our borrowing base and our ability to borrow under such facility. We
expect to remain in compliance throughout 2013.

The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.42 at December 31, 2012 versus 2.64 at
December 31, 2011. Working capital, which we define as current assets less current liabilities,
decreased by $19.2 million to $272.3 million at December 31, 2012 from $291.5 million at
December 31, 2011. Accounts receivable increased $21.4 million to $161.3 million in 2012 from
$139.9 million in 2011 primarily resulting from the acquisition of FRS and its $19.8 million of
accounts receivable at December 31, 2012 and the increase in sales volume in 2012. Inventory
increased by $13.6 million in 2012 to $215.6 million from $202.0 million in 2011 primarily
resulting from the acquisition of FRS. Accounts payable increased $2.5 million to $102.1 million in
2012 from $99.6 million in 2011 as a result of acquiring the accounts payable of FRS of $13.4
million offset by the timing of payments at December 31, 2012. Accrued expenses increased by
$8.8 million to $83.3 million in 2012 from $74.5 million in 2011 primarily from acquiring the
accrued liabilities of FRS of $12.6 million, offset by a decrease in advance billings of $3.0 million.

During 2012, we provided $55.9 million from operating activities as compared to providing
$35.9 million in 2011. The increase in cash provided by operating activities of $20.0 million was
primarily the result of a decrease in changes in operating assets and liabilities excluding
acquisitions of businesses of $4.2 million in 2012 compared to decreases of $11.7 million in 2011,
an increase in net income of $2.4 million and an increase in deferred taxes of $20.4 million.
During 2012, we invested $97.0 million for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, and $29.6 million in
capital expenditures, which were offset by the receipt of $5.9 million from the sale and leaseback
of equipment under operating leases. These activities, plus a net increase in borrowings of $31.1
million, offset by purchases of our common stock of $4.0 million, resulted in a decrease in cash of
$33.6 million in 2012.

33

During 2011, we provided $35.9 million from operating activities as compared to providing
$67.1 million in 2010. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities of $31.2 million was
primarily the result of a decrease in changes in operating assets and liabilities excluding
acquisitions of businesses of $11.7 million in 2011 compared to an increase of $32.8 million in
2010 offset by an increase in net income of $14.2 million. During 2011, we invested $12.7 million
in capital expenditures which were offset by the receipt of $1.6 million from the sale of property.
These activities, plus cash interest and tax payments of $31.6 million, a net increase in
borrowings of $34.8 million, the issuance of the Notes, and purchases of treasury stock of $2.1
million, resulted in an increase in cash of $42.7 million in 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financing or other relationships with
unconsolidated entities or other persons. There are occasions whereupon we enter into forward
contracts on foreign currencies, primarily the euro, purely for the purpose of hedging exposure to
changes in the value of accounts receivable in those currencies against the U.S. dollar. At
December 31, 2012, none were outstanding. We currently have no other derivative instruments.

(1) Interest obligations are included on the Notes only and assume the Notes are paid at
maturity. The calculation of interest on debt outstanding under our revolving credit facility
and other variable rate debt ($2.8 million based on 2.23% average interest rate and
outstanding borrowings of $124.2 million at December 31, 2012) is not included above due to
the subjectivity and estimation required.

(2) Postretirement obligations include projected postretirement benefit payments to participants

only through 2021.

The table above excludes the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits disclosed in
Note H to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein, since we cannot
predict with reasonable reliability, the timing of potential cash settlements with the respective
taxing authorities.

We expect that funds provided by operations plus available borrowings under our revolving

credit facility to be adequate to meet our cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions which affect amounts

34

reported in our consolidated financial statements. Management has made their best estimates
and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration
to materiality. We do not believe that there is great likelihood that materially different amounts
would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions related to the
accounting policies described below. However, application of these accounting policies involves the
exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual
results could differ from these estimates.

Revenue Recognition: We recognize revenue, other than from long-term contracts, when title
is transferred to the customer, typically upon shipment. Revenue from long-term contracts
(approximately 11% of consolidated revenue) is accounted for under the percentage of completion
method, and recognized on the basis of the percentage each contract’s cost to date bears to the
total estimated contract cost. Revenue earned on contracts in process that are in excess of billings,
is classified in other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Billings that
are in excess of revenue earned on contracts in process are classified in accrued expenses on the
accompanying balance sheet. Our revenue recognition policies are in accordance with the SEC’s
Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition.”

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Accounts receivable have been reduced by an allowance for
amounts that may become uncollectable in the future. Allowances are developed by the individual
operating units based on historical losses, adjusting for economic conditions. Our policy is to
identify and reserve for specific collectability concerns based on customers’ financial condition and
payment history. The establishment of reserves requires the use of judgment and assumptions
regarding the potential for losses on receivable balances.

Allowance for Obsolete and Slow Moving Inventory:

Inventories are stated at the lower of
cost or market value and have been reduced by an allowance for obsolete and slow-moving
inventories. The estimated allowance is based on management’s review of inventories on hand
with minimal sales activity, which is compared to estimated future usage and sales. Inventories
identified by management as slow-moving or obsolete are reserved for based on estimated selling
prices less disposal costs. Though we consider these allowances adequate and proper, changes in
economic conditions in specific markets in which we operate could have a material effect on
reserve allowances required.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”) 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, management performs impairment tests of long-
lived assets, including property and equipment, whenever an event occurs or circumstances
change that indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable or the useful life of the asset
has changed. We reviewed our long-lived assets for indicators of impairment such as a decision to
idle certain facilities and consolidate certain operations, a current-period operating or cash flow
loss or a forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset
and the expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset will be sold or otherwise
disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. When we identified
impairment indicators, we determined whether the carrying amount of our long-lived assets was
recoverable by comparing the carrying value to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected
to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. We considered whether impairments
existed at the lowest level of independent identifiable cash flows within a reporting unit (for
example, plant location, program level or asset level). If the carrying value of the assets exceeded
the expected cash flows, we estimated the fair value of these assets by using appraisals or recent
selling experience in selling similar assets or for certain assets with reasonably predictable cash
flows by performing discounted cash flow analysis using the same discount rate used as the
weighted average cost of capital in the respective goodwill impairment analysis to estimate fair

35

value when market information was not available to determine whether an impairment existed.
Certain assets were abandoned and written down to scrap or appraised value. We recorded $5.4
million of asset impairment charges in 2011 based on appraisals and scrap values. See Note O to
the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.

Restructuring: We recognize costs in accordance with ASC 420, “Exit or Disposal Cost
Obligations”. Detailed contemporaneous documentation is maintained and updated on a quarterly
basis to ensure that accruals are properly supported. If management determines that there is a
change in the estimate, the accruals are adjusted to reflect the changes.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Assets: As required by ASC 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and
Other” (“ASC 350”), management performs impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived
assets at least annually, as of October 1 of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators
arise.

The goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step process. Step one compares the carrying
amount of the reporting unit to its estimated fair value. To the extent that the carrying value of
the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, step two is performed, where the reporting
unit’s carrying value of goodwill is compared to the implied fair value of goodwill. To the extent
that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, impairment exists
and must be recognized. In accordance with ASC 350, management tests goodwill for impairment
at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment pursuant to ASC 280,
“Segment Reporting”, or one level below the operating segment (component level) as determined
by the availability of discrete financial information that is regularly reviewed by operating
segment management or an aggregate of component levels of a reportable operating segment
having similar economic characteristics.

During 2011, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-8,
“Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” which allows
companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if goodwill might be impaired and whether it
is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Based on a review of various
qualitative factors, management concluded that the goodwill for the Capital Equipment reporting
unit was not impaired and that the two-step approach was not required to be performed for this
reporting unit. Based on a review of various qualitative factors, management concluded that the
goodwill for the Aluminum Products reporting unit would be tested under the two-step approach.
We prepare the quantitative goodwill impairment analysis by comparing the estimated fair value
of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Management determined fair value through the use of
a discounted cash flow valuation model incorporating discount rates commensurate with the risks
involved for the reporting unit. If the calculated fair value is less than the carrying value,
impairment of the reporting unit may exist. The use of a discounted cash flow valuation model to
determine estimated fair value is common practice in impairment testing in the absence of
available domestic and international transactional market evidence to determine the fair value.
The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow valuation model for impairment testing
include discount rates, growth rates, cash flow projections and terminal value rates. Discount
rates are determined by using the weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) methodology. The
WACC considers market and industry data as well as company-specific risk factors for each
reporting unit in determining the appropriate discount rates to be used. The discount rate utilized
for the Aluminum reporting unit was 12% which is indicative of the return an investor would
expect to receive for investing in such a business. Operational management, considering industry
and company-specific historical and projected data, develops growth rates and cash flow
projections. Terminal value rate determination follows common methodology of capturing the
present value of perpetual cash flow estimates beyond the last projected period assuming a
constant WACC and low long-term growth rates. As a result of this analysis, we concluded that no
impairment existed.

In 2012, we completed the acquisitions of FRS and ETM and recorded additional goodwill of
$40.2 million. At December 31, 2012, we had goodwill of $49.7 million. In 2012, based on a review
of various qualitative factors, management concluded that the goodwill related to the Aluminum
Products, FRS and the Capital Equipment reporting units was not impaired and that the two-step
approach was not required to be performed.

At December 31, 2012, we had one indefinite—lived tradename related to the 2012 acquisition
of FRS in the amount of $11.5 million. For purposes of impairment testing, we estimated the fair
value of the trade name using a “relief from royalty” approach. This approach involves two steps:
(1) estimating a reasonable royalty rate for the trade name and (2) applying this royalty rate to a
net sales stream and discounting the resulting cash flows to determine fair value. Fair value is
then compared with the carrying value of the trade name. As a result of this analysis, we
concluded that no impairment existed.

Income Taxes:

In accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), we account for
income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are
determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of
assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates. Specifically, we
measure gross deferred tax assets for deductible temporary differences and carryforwards, such as
operating losses and tax credits, using the applicable enacted tax rates and apply the more likely
than not measurement criterion.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans: We and our subsidiaries have pension
plans, principally noncontributory defined benefit or noncontributory defined contribution plans
and postretirement benefit plans covering substantially all employees. The measurement of
liabilities related to these plans is based on management’s assumptions related to future events,
including interest rates, return on pension plan assets, rate of compensation increases, and health
care cost trends. Pension plan asset performance in the future will directly impact our net income.
We have evaluated our pension and other postretirement benefit assumptions, considering
current trends in interest rates and market conditions and believe our assumptions are
appropriate.

Stock-Based Compensation: ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” requires that
the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial
statements and establishes a fair-value measurement objective in determining the value of such a
cost. We recorded expense related to stock-based compensation in 2012, 2011, and 2010 of
$2.7 million, $2.1 million and $1.7 million (before tax), respectively.

Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Adopted as of December 31, 2012

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2011-11,
“Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” which requires
entities to disclose both gross and net information about both instruments and transactions
eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject
to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. The objective of the disclosure is to
facilitate comparison between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis
of U.S. GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS. In
January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” which clarifies the scope of the offsetting
disclosures of ASU 2011-11. Both ASUs are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Retrospective presentation for all comparative
periods presented is required. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

37

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which
requires entities to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other
comprehensive income by component. In addition, entities are required to present, either on the
face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts
reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net
income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net
income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under
U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, entities are required to cross-
reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail on these
amounts. This ASU is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2012. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

Environmental

We have been identified as a potentially responsible party at third-party sites under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or
comparable state laws, which provide for strict and, under certain circumstances, joint and
several liability. We are participating in the cost of certain clean-up efforts at several of these
sites. However, our share of such costs has not been material and based on available information,
our management does not expect our exposure at any of these locations to have a material adverse
effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial condition.

We have been named as one of many defendants in a number of asbestos-related personal
injury lawsuits. Our cost of defending such lawsuits has not been material to date and, based
upon available information, our management does not expect our future costs for asbestos-related
lawsuits to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial
condition. We caution, however, that inherent in management’s estimates of our exposure are
expected trends in claims severity, frequency and other factors that may materially vary as claims
are filed and settled or otherwise resolved.

Seasonality; Variability of Operating Results

The timing of orders placed by our customers has varied with, among other factors, orders for
customers’ finished goods, customer production schedules, competitive conditions and general
economic conditions. The variability of the level and timing of orders has, from time to time,
resulted in significant periodic and quarterly fluctuations in the operations of our business units.
Such variability is particularly evident at the capital equipment businesses, included in the
Engineered Products segment.

Forward-Looking Statements

This annual report on Form 10-K contains certain statements that are “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the
Exchange Act. The words “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “intends”, “estimates” and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our
actual results, performance and achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from
any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: our substantial
indebtedness; the uncertainty of the global economic environment; general business conditions
and competitive factors, including pricing pressures and product innovation; demand for our

38

products and services; raw material availability and pricing; component part availability and
pricing; changes in our relationships with customers and suppliers; the financial condition of our
customers, including the impact of any bankruptcies; our ability to successfully integrate recent
and future acquisitions into existing operations; the amounts and timing, if any, of purchases of
our common stock; changes in general domestic economic conditions such as inflation rates,
interest rates, tax rates, unemployment rates, higher labor and healthcare costs, recessions and
changing government policies, laws and regulations, including the uncertainties related to the
current global financial crisis; adverse impacts to us, our suppliers and customers from acts of
terrorism or hostilities; our ability to meet various covenants, including financial covenants,
contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness; disruptions, uncertainties or volatility
in the credit markets that may limit our access to capital; increasingly stringent domestic and
foreign governmental regulations, including those affecting the environment; potential disruption
due to a partial or complete reconfiguration of the European Union; inherent uncertainties
involved in assessing our potential liability for environmental remediation-related activities; the
outcome of pending and future litigation and other claims and disputes with customers; our
dependence on the automotive and heavy-duty truck industries, which are highly cyclical; the
dependence of the automotive industry on consumer spending, which could be lower due to the
effects of the recent financial crises; our ability to negotiate contracts with labor unions; our
dependence on key management; our dependence on information systems; and the other factors
we describe under “Item 1A. Risk Factors”. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the
date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-
looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as
required by law. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a forward-looking
statement herein should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives
will be achieved.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk including changes in interest rates. We are subject to interest
rate risk on our floating rate revolving credit facility, which consisted of borrowings of
$124.2 million at December 31, 2012. A 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would have
resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2012.

Our foreign subsidiaries generally conduct business in local currencies. During 2012, we
recorded a favorable foreign currency translation adjustment of $0.6 million related to net assets
located outside the United States. This foreign currency translation adjustment resulted primarily
from strengthening of the U.S. dollar. Our foreign operations are also subject to other customary
risks of operating in a global environment, such as unstable political situations, the effect of local
laws and taxes, tariff increases and regulations and requirements for export licenses, the
potential imposition of trade or foreign exchange restrictions and transportation delays.

Our largest exposures to commodity prices relate to steel and natural gas prices, which have
fluctuated widely in recent years. We do not have any commodity swap agreements, forward
purchase or hedge contracts.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp.
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of
income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2012. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule
listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of
the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries at
December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement
schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents
fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in the Internal Control
— Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission and our report dated March 15, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp.

We have audited Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the
COSO criteria). Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries’ management is responsible for
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the
effectiveness of
reporting included in the accompanying
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

financial

internal

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and
evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s
internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to
the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or
detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As indicated in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over financial
Reporting, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over
financial reporting did not include the internal controls of Fluid Routing Solutions Holding Corp.
(FRS), which is included in the 2012 consolidated financial statements of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp.
and subsidiaries and constituted 19% of total assets as of December 31, 2012 and 13% and 22% of net
sales and net income, respectively, for the year then ended. Our audit of internal control over
financial reporting of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries also did not include an evaluation
of the internal control over financial reporting of FRS.

In our opinion, Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects,
effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on the COSO
criteria.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income,
comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2012 of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries and our report dated
March 15, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

NOTE A — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation and Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The Company does not have off-balance
sheet arrangements or financings with unconsolidated entities or other persons. In the ordinary
course of business, the Company leases certain real properties owned by related parties as
described in Note L. Transactions with related parties are in the ordinary course of business, are
conducted on an arm’s-length basis, and are not material to the Company’s financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.

Accounting Estimates: The preparation of

in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

financial statements

Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of

three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost or market
value. Inventory reserves were $27,206 and $24,881 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Inventory consigned to others was $6,585 and $6,546 at December 31, 2012 and 2011,
respectively.

2011

Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost.
Additions and associated interest costs are capitalized and expenditures for repairs and
maintenance are charged to operations. Depreciation of fixed assets is computed principally by the
straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 25 to 40 years
for buildings, and 3 to 20 years for machinery and equipment. The Company reviews long-lived
assets for impairment when events or changes in business conditions indicate that their full
carrying value may not be recoverable. See Note O.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: We assess the recoverability of

long-lived assets
(excluding goodwill) and identifiable acquired intangible assets with finite useful lives, whenever

48

PARK-OHIO HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

events or changes in circumstances indicate that we may not be able to recover the assets’
carrying amount. We measure the recoverability of assets to be held and used by a comparison of
the carrying amount of the asset to the expected net future undiscounted cash flows to be
generated by that asset, or, for identifiable intangibles with finite useful lives, by determining
whether the amortization of the intangible asset balance over its remaining life can be recovered
through undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of impairment of identifiable intangible
assets with finite useful lives, if any, to be recognized is measured based on projected discounted
future cash flows. We measure the amount of impairment of other long-lived assets (excluding
goodwill) as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair market value of
the asset, which is generally determined, based on projected discounted future cash flows or
appraised values. We classify long-lived assets to be disposed of other than by sale as held and
used until they are disposed.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Assets:

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”) 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”), the Company does not amortize
goodwill recorded in connection with business acquisitions. Other intangible assets, which consist
primarily of non-contractual customer relationships, are amortized over their estimated useful
lives.

Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are tested annually for impairment as of
October 1, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be a possible
permanent loss of value in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level and is based on the net assets for
each reporting unit, including goodwill and intangible assets. We have identified our reporting
units at the component level, or one level below our operating segments. In September 2011, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”)
2011-08, which amends the rules for testing goodwill for impairment. Under the new rules, an
entity has the option to 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 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-step impairment test is
unnecessary. We early adopted ASU 2011-08 for our October 1, 2011 annual goodwill impairment
test.

In assessing the qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the
fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we identify and assess relevant
drivers of fair value and events and circumstances that may impact the fair value and the
carrying amount of the reporting unit. The identification of relevant events and circumstances
and how these may impact a reporting unit’s fair value or carrying amount involve significant
judgments and assumptions. The judgments and assumptions include the identification of
macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial
performance, Company-specific events and share price trends, and the assessment of whether
each relevant factor will impact the impairment test positively or negatively and the magnitude of
any such impact.

If our qualitative assessment concludes that it is more likely than not that impairment exists
then a quantitative assessment is required. In a quantitative assessment, we use an income

49

PARK-OHIO HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

approach and other valuation techniques to estimate the fair value of our reporting units. Absent
an indication of fair value from a potential buyer or similar specific transactions, we believe that
using this methodology provides reasonable estimates of a reporting unit’s fair value. The income
approach is based on projected future debt-free cash flow that is discounted to present value using
factors that consider the timing and risk of the future cash flows. We believe that this approach is
appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate based upon the reporting unit’s expected
long-term operating and cash flow performance. This approach also mitigates most of the impact
of cyclical downturns that occur in the reporting unit’s industry. The income approach is based on
a reporting unit’s projection of operating results and cash flows that is discounted using a
weighted-average cost of capital. The projection is based upon our best estimates of projected
economic and market conditions over the related period including growth rates, estimates of
future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates
and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, terminal value margin rates, future capital
expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements based on management
projections. There are inherent uncertainties, however, related to these factors and to our
judgment in applying them to this analysis. Nonetheless, we believe that this method provides a
reasonable approach to estimate the fair value of our reporting units.

The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment test for each year presented and
confirmed no reporting unit was at risk of failing the impairment test for any periods presented
herein.

Stock-Based Compensation: The Company

of ASC 718,
“Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), which requires all share-based payments to
employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement
based on their fair values. Compensation expense for awards with service conditions only that are
subject to graded vesting is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the vesting period.

provisions

the

Additional information regarding our share-based compensation program is provided in

Note I.

Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method,
whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences
between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using
the current enacted tax rates. In determining these amounts, management determined the
probability of realizing deferred tax assets, taking into consideration factors including historical
operating results, cumulative earnings and losses, expectations of future earnings, taxable income
and the extended period of time over which the postretirement benefits will be paid and
accordingly records valuation allowances if, based on the weight of available evidence it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of our deferred tax assets will not be realized as required
by ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”).

Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue, other than from long-term
contracts, when title is transferred to the customer, typically upon shipment. Revenue from long-
term contracts (approximately 11% of consolidated revenue) is accounted for under the percentage
of completion method, and recognized on the basis of the percentage each contract’s cost to date
bears to the total estimated contract cost. Revenue earned on contracts in process that are in
excess of billings, is classified in unbilled contract revenues in the accompanying consolidated

50

PARK-OHIO HOLDINGS CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

balance sheet. Billings that are in excess of revenues earned on contracts in process are classified
in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Accounts receivable are recorded
at net realizable value. Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may
become uncollectable in the future. The Company’s policy is to identify and reserve for specific
collectability concerns based on customers’ financial condition and payment history. During 2012
and 2011, we sold approximately $76,482 and $63,202, respectively, of accounts receivable to
mitigate accounts receivable concentration risk and to provide additional financing capacity. In
compliance with ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing”, sales of accounts receivable are reflected as
a reduction of accounts receivable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the proceeds are
included in the cash flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash flows.
In 2012 and 2011, a loss in the amount of $314 and $281, respectively, related to the sale of
accounts receivable is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income. These losses
represented implicit interest on the transactions.

Software Development Costs: Software development

to
establishing feasibility through the general release of the software products are capitalized and
included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Technological
feasibility is
demonstrated by the completion of a working model. All costs prior to the development of the
working model are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis
over five years, which is the estimated useful life of the software product. Amortization expense
was $1,183, $1,533 and $2,213 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

incurred subsequent

costs

Concentration of Credit Risk: The Company sells its products to customers in diversified
industries. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition
but does not require collateral to support customer receivables. The Company establishes an
allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific
customers, historical trends and other information. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had
uncollateralized receivables with four customers in the automotive industry, each with several
locations, aggregating $18,791, which represented approximately 12% of the Company’s trade
accounts receivable. During 2012, sales to these customers amounted to approximately $132,321,
which represented approximately 12% of the Company’s net sales.

Shipping and Handling Costs: All shipping and handling costs are included in cost of

products sold in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Environmental: The Company accrues environmental costs related to existing conditions
resulting from past or current operations and from which no current or future benefit is
discernible. Costs that extend the life of the related property or mitigate or prevent future
environmental
capitalized. The Company records a liability when
environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable and can be reasonably estimated.
The estimated liability of the Company is not reduced for possible recoveries from insurance
carriers.

Foreign Currency Translation: The functional currency for a majority of subsidiaries outside
the United States is the local currency. Financial statements for these subsidiaries are translated
into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and weighted-average

exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded
in accumulated comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):
Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. ASU No. 2011-05 amends existing guidance by allowing
only two options for presenting the components of net income and other comprehensive income:
(1) in a single continuous financial statement, statement of comprehensive income or (2) in two
separate but consecutive financial statements, consisting of an income statement followed by a
separate statement of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). Also, items that are reclassified from
OCI to net income must be presented on the face of the financial statements. ASU No. 2011-05
requires retrospective application, and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. In December
2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, deferring its requirement that companies present
reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income in
both net income and OCI on the face of the financial statements. Entities continue to be required
to present amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the face of the
financial statements or to disclose those amounts in the notes to the financial statements. The
requirement to present reclassification adjustments in interim periods was also deferred.
However, entities are required to report a total for comprehensive income in condensed financial
statements of interim periods in a single continuous statement or in two consecutive statements.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2011-05 in the first quarter 2012 and elected to present the
components of net income and comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” which
requires entities to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other
comprehensive income by component. In addition, entities are required to present, either on the
face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts
reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net
income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net
income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under
U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, entities are required to cross-
reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail on these
amounts. This ASU is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2012. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

In May 2011, the FASB amended ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement.” This amendment is
intended to result in convergence between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting
Standards (“IFRS”) requirements for measurement of and disclosures about fair value. This
guidance clarifies the application of existing fair value measurements and disclosures, and
changes certain principles or requirements for fair value measurements and disclosures. The
amendment is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The
adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial
statements.

Reclassification: Certain amounts in the prior years’

financial statement have been

reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE B — Segments

On March 23, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Fluid Routing Solutions
Holding Corp.
(“FRS”), a leading manufacturer of automotive and industrial rubber and
thermoplastic hose products and fuel filler and hydraulic fluid assemblies for the automotive and
industrial industries. FRS expanded the Company’s sales of assembled components.

During the second quarter of 2012, as a result of the FRS acquisition, the Company realigned
its segments in order to better align its business with the underlying markets and customers that
the Company serves. In so doing, we combined Aluminum Products, Rubber Products (previously
included in the former Manufactured Products segment) and Delo Screw Products (previously
included in the Supply Technologies segment) with FRS to form the Assembly Components
segment. The former Manufactured Products segment is now referred to as Engineered Products.
The results of operations of FRS from the date of the acquisition through December 31, 2012 are
included in the Assembly Components segment. The business segment results for the prior years
have been reclassified to reflect these changes. Following is a description of each of our three
reportable segments.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

On November 30, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Elastomeros Tecnicos
Moldeados Inc, (“ETM”) for $1,082 in cash, $500 in promissory notes payable and $125 annually in
each of the next four years, if ETM achieves certain earnings levels. ETM is a provider of molded
rubber products and has been integrated into the Company’s Assembly Components segment. The
acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition
method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to ETM’s tangible and intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of November 30, 2012, the
effective date of the acquisition. Based on the preliminary purchase price allocation, goodwill of
$960 was recorded.

Direct transaction costs associated with this acquisition during the year ended December 31,
2012 were not material. Assuming this acquisition had taken place at the beginning of 2011, pro
forma results would not have been materially different.

Effective August 31, 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets and
assumed specific liabilities relating to Assembly Components Systems (“ACS”) business unit of
Lawson Products, Inc. The net assets acquired were integrated into the Company’s Supply
Technologies business segment. The fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the total
purchase price and, accordingly, resulted in a gain on acquisition of business of $2,210. On
September 30, 2010, the Company entered a Bill of Sale with Rome Die Casting LLC (“Rome”), a
producer of aluminum high pressure die castings. The assets of Rome were integrated into the
Company’s Assembly Components segment. On December 31, 2010, the Company, through its
subsidiary Ajax Tocco Magnathermic, acquired the assets and the related induction heating
intellectual property of ABP Induction’s United States heating business operating as Pillar
Induction (“Pillar”). The assets of Pillar have been integrated into the Company’s Engineered
Products segment. The acquisitions of Rome and Pillar were accounted for under the acquisition
method of accounting and resulted in goodwill of $4,572 and $990, respectively.

The following unaudited pro forma information is provided to present a summary of the
combined results of the Company’s operations with ACS, Rome and Pillar as if the acquisitions
had occurred on January 1, 2009. The unaudited pro forma financial
information is for
informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the results would have been
had the acquisitions been completed at the date indicated above.

On April 7, 2011, the Company completed the sale of $250,000 in the aggregate principal
amount of 8.125% senior notes due 2021 (the “Notes”). The Notes bear an interest rate of
8.125% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year
commencing on October 1, 2011. The Notes mature on April 1, 2021. The Company is a party to a
credit and security agreement dated November 5, 2003, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”)
with a group of banks, under which it may borrow or issue standby letters of credit or commercial
letters of credit. On March 23, 2012, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to, among
other things, increase the revolving loan commitment from $200,000 to $220,000, and provide a
term loan for $25,000. The Company may increase the commitment by an additional $30,000
during the term of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is secured by accounts receivable,
inventory, certain real estate and machinery and equipment. At December 31, 2012, in addition to
amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility, there was $9,001 outstanding for standby
letters of credit. An annual fee of up to .5% is imposed by the bank on the unused borrowing
capacity and is based on the total aggregate credit facility used. Amounts borrowed under the
revolving credit facility may be borrowed at either LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75% or the bank’s prime
lending rate minus .25% to 1.00% at the Company’s election. The interest rate is dependent on the
Company’s debt service coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Under the Credit
Agreement, a detailed borrowing base formula provides borrowing availability to the Company
based on percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The interest rate on the
revolving credit facility was 2.0% at December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2012 the Company had
approximately $60,364 of unused borrowing capacity available under the revolving credit facility.
Interest on the term loan is at either (i) LIBOR plus 2.75% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate
plus .25%, at the Company’s election. The term loan is amortized based on a seven-year schedule
with the balance due at maturity (April 7, 2016). The interest rate on the term loan was 3.14% at
December 31, 2012.

Maturities of long-term debt during each of the five years following December 31, 2012 are
approximately $4,411 in 2013, $4,413 in 2014, $4,416 in 2015, $114,332 in 2016 and $741 in 2017.

Foreign subsidiaries of the Company had no borrowings at December 31, 2012 and 2011,
respectively and outstanding bank guarantees of approximately $9,161 at December 31, 2012
under their credit arrangements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

The Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of the Company and are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by all material domestic subsidiaries of
the Company. Provisions of the indenture governing the Notes and the Credit Agreement contain
restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, to create liens or other
encumbrances, to make certain payments, investments, loans and guarantees and to sell or
otherwise dispose of a substantial portion of assets or to merge or consolidate with an unaffiliated
entity. At December 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants of the
Credit Agreement.

The weighted average interest rate on all debt was 6.15% at December 31, 2012.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and
borrowings under the Credit Agreement approximate fair value at December 31, 2012 and 2011.
The approximate fair value of the Notes was $266,250 at December 31, 2012 and $247,500 at
December 31, 2011. The fair value of the Notes is estimated based on a third-party’s bid price,
which was determined to be a Level 1 input.

In connection with the sale of the Notes, the Company incurred debt extinguishment costs
related primarily to premiums and other transaction costs and wrote off deferred financing costs
totaling $7,335 in 2011. In connection with the amendment to the Credit Agreement in 2012, the
Company wrote off deferred financing costs of $305.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company was not in a cumulative three-year loss position
and it was determined that it was more likely than not that its U.S. deferred tax assets will be
realized. As of December 31, 2012, the Company reversed a valuation allowance of $328 against its
state net operating loss carryforward and as of December 31, 2011, the Company reversed a valuation
allowance of $16,820 against its U.S. deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the
Company recorded valuation allowances of $161 and $565, respectively, against certain foreign net
deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of
future taxable income (including reversals of deferred tax liabilities). The Company reviews all
valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets and will reverse these valuation allowances,
partially or totally, when appropriate under ASC 740.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective
tax rate is $4,870 at December 31, 2012 and $4,794 at December 31, 2011. The Company
recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax
expense. During the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized
approximately $58 and $19, respectively,
in net interest and penalties. The Company had
approximately $759 and $701 for the payment of interest and penalties accrued at December 31,
2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company does not expect that the unrecognized tax benefit will
change significantly within the next twelve months.

Deferred taxes have not been provided on approximately $77,221 of undistributed earnings of
the Company’s foreign subsidiaries as it is the Company’s policy and intent to permanently
reinvest such earnings. The Company has determined that it is not practicable to determine the
unrecognized tax liability on such undistributed earnings.

The total fair value of restricted stock units vested during the years ended December 31,

2012, 2011 and 2010 was $4,642, $3,986, and $4,043, respectively.

The Company recognizes compensation cost of all share-based awards as an expense on a

straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had unrecognized compensation expense of $5,549,
before taxes, related to stock option awards and restricted shares. The unrecognized compensation
expense is expected to be recognized over a total weighted average period of 2.1 years.

The number of shares available for future grants for all plans at December 31, 2012 is

491,003.

NOTE J — Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings arising in the
ordinary course of business. Although the Company cannot precisely predict the amount of any
liability that may ultimately arise with respect to any of these matters, the Company records
provisions when it considers the liability probable and reasonably estimable. Our provisions are
based on historical experience and legal advice, reviewed quarterly and adjusted according to
developments. Estimating probable losses requires the analysis of multiple forecasted factors that
often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties, such as regulators, courts,
and state and federal legislatures. Changes in the amounts of our loss provisions, which can be
material, affect our financial condition. Due to the inherent uncertainties in the process
undertaken to estimate potential losses, we are unable to estimate an additional range of loss in
excess of our accruals. While it is reasonably possible that such excess liabilities, if they were to
occur, could be material to operating results in any given quarter or year of their recognition, we
do not believe that it is reasonably possible that such excess liabilities would have a material
adverse effect on our long-term results of operations, liquidity or consolidated financial position.

Our subsidiaries are involved in a number of contractual and warranty related disputes. At
this time, we cannot reasonably determine the probability of a loss, and the timing and amount of
loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. We believe that appropriate liabilities for these
contingencies have been recorded; however, actual results may differ materially from our
estimates.

One of our subsidiaries, Ajax Tocco Magnethermic (“ATM”), which is included in the
Engineered Products segment, was a party to a binding arbitration proceeding pending in South
Africa with its customer Evraz Highveld Steel and Vanadium (“Evraz”). The arbitration involved a
dispute over the design and installation of a melting furnace. Evraz sought binding arbitration in
September 2011 for breach of contract and sought compensatory damages in the amount of
$37,000, as well as fees and expenses related to the arbitration. ATM counterclaimed in the
arbitration, alleging breach of contract for non-payment of $2,700 as well as fees and expenses
related to the arbitration. The arbitration was scheduled to commence in June 2012. Prior to the
start of the arbitration, after complete evaluation of Evraz’s evidence, consideration of the
jurisdiction of the matter, the uncertainty of a specific outcome and other pertinent facts noted in
preparation for the arbitration, we entered into a settlement agreement with Evraz pursuant to
which we agreed to settle all claims subject to the arbitration proceeding by paying Evraz $13,000
in cash, which payment was made in June 2012. The $2,700 amount receivable from Evraz had
been previously reserved and was written off in conjunction with the settlement.

ATM is the defendant in a lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Arkansas. The plaintiff is IPSCO Tubulars Inc. d/b/a TMK IPSCO. The
complaint alleges claims for breach of contract, gross negligence and constructive fraud. TMK
IPSCO is seeking approximately $6,000 in direct and $4,000 in consequential damages as well as
an unspecified amount of punitive damages. ATM denies the allegations against it, believes it has
a number of meritorious defenses and is vigorously defending the lawsuit. A motion for partial
summary judgment, which was recently filed by ATM, is currently pending before the district
court. A bench trial is set to begin in April of 2013.

NOTE K — Pensions and Postretirement Benefits

The Company and its subsidiaries have pension plans, principally noncontributory defined
benefit or noncontributory defined contribution plans, covering substantially all employees. In
addition, the Company has an unfunded postretirement benefit plan. In April 2011, the Company
amended one of its plans to cover most U.S. employees not covered by collective bargaining
agreements using a cash balance formula, which increased the 2011 benefit obligation by
approximately $1,100. Under a cash balance formula, a plan participant accumulates a retirement
benefit consisting of pay credits that are based upon a percentage of current eligible earnings and
current interest credits. For the remaining defined benefit plans, benefits are based on the
employee’s years of service. For the defined contribution plans, the costs charged to operations
and the amount funded are based upon a percentage of the covered employees’ compensation.

The following tables set forth the change in benefit obligation, plan assets, funded status and
amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheet for the defined benefit pension and
postretirement benefit plans as of December 31, 2012 and 2011:

The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to
determine the fair value. Level 1 refers to the fair value determined based on unadjusted quoted
prices for identical assets in active markets. Level 2 refers to the fair values based on quoted
markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, and inputs that are
observable for the asset either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset
and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by
correlation or other means. Level 3 refers to fair value based on prices or valuation techniques
that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Level 3 assets held during the years ended

December 31, 2012 and 2011.

In determining its expected return on plan assets assumption for the year ended
December 31, 2012, the Company considered historical experience, its asset allocation, expected
future long-term rates of return for each major asset class, and an assumed long-term inflation
rate. Based on these factors, the Company derived an expected return on plan assets for the year
ended December 31, 2012 of 8.25%. This assumption was supported by the asset return generation
model, which projected future asset returns using simulation and asset class correlation.

For measurement purposes, a 7.0% and a 7.25% annual rate of increase in the per capita cost
of covered medical health care benefits and drug benefits, respectively were assumed for 2012.
The rates were assumed to decrease gradually to 5.0% for medical and drug for 2042 and remain
at that level thereafter.

The Company expects to have no contributions to its defined benefit plans in 2013.

In January 2008, a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) for the Company’s
Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) was approved by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. The SERP provides an
annual supplemental retirement benefit for up to $375 upon the CEO’s termination of
employment with the Company. The vested retirement benefit will be equal to a percentage of the
Supplemental Pension that is equal to the ratio of the sum of his credited service with the
Company prior to January 1, 2008 (up to a maximum of thirteen years), and his credited service
on or after January 1, 2008 (up to a maximum of seven years) to twenty years of credited service.
In the event of a change in control before the CEO’s termination of employment, he will receive
100% of the Supplemental Pension. The Company recorded an expense of $476 in 2012 related to
the SERP and $389 in 2011 and 2010. Additionally, a non-qualified defined contribution
retirement benefit was also approved in which the Company will credit $94 quarterly ($375
annually) for a seven-year period to an account in which the CEO will always be 100% vested. The
seven year period began on March 31, 2008.

NOTE L — Leases

Future minimum lease commitments during each of the five years following December 31,
2012 and thereafter are as follows: $12,588 in 2013, $9,149 in 2014, $6,858 in 2015, $5,416 in
2016, $4,102 in 2017 and $7,333 thereafter. Rental expense for 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $15,799,
$16,363 and $13,068, respectively.

Certain of the Company’s leases are with related parties at an annual rental expense of
approximately $2,560. Transactions with related parties are in the ordinary course of business,
are conducted on an arms length basis, and are not material to the Company’s financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.

During 2012, we entered into sales leaseback transactions for certain equipment. No gains or
losses resulted from these transactions and the leases are being accounted for as operating leases.

Outstanding stock options with exercise prices greater that the average price of the common
shares are anti-dilutive and are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.
Stock options for 20,000, 40,000 and 201,100 shares of common stock were excluded in the years
