NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2008 (unaudited) and December 31, 2007 (audited) and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the indicated periods. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. Certain items in 2007 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in 2008. These changes have no effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company. 2. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. 3. The Company extends credit on the basis of terms that are customary within our markets to various companies doing business primarily in the automotive industry. The Company has a concentration of credit risk primarily within the automotive industry and in the Midwestern United States. 4. The Company is, from time to time, involved in litigation, including environmental claims and contract disputes, in the normal course of business. While it is not possible at this time to establish the ultimate amount of liability with respect to contingent liabilities, including those related to legal proceedings, management is of the opinion that the aggregate amount of any such liabilities, for which provision has not been made, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position. 5. The Company's federal income tax returns for the 2005, 2006 and 2007 tax years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). While it may be possible that a reduction could occur with respect to the Company's unrecognized tax benefits as an outcome of an IRS examination, management does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to the results of operations or financial condition of the Company. The 2004 federal income tax return was examined by the IRS and no adjustments were made as a result of the examination. No statutes have been extended on any of the Company's federal income tax filings. The statute of limitations on the Company's 2005, 2006 and 2007 federal income tax returns will expire on September 15, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. The Company's state income tax returns for the 2005 through 2007 tax years remain subject to examination by various state authorities with the latest closing period on October 31, 2011. The Company is currently not under examination by any state authority for income tax purposes and no statutes for state income tax filings have been extended. 6. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined by the first-in, first-out method. A summary of inventories is as follows: March 31, 2008 December 31, 2007 -------------- ----------------- Raw Material $1,541,610 $1,275,595 Work-in-process 1,920,966 1,597,483 Finished goods 2,512,353 2,577,755 ---------- ---------- 5,974,929 5,450,833 Valuation reserves (490,000) (475,000) ---------- ---------- $5,484,929 $4,975,833 ========== ========== 7 CHICAGO RIVET & MACHINE CO.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Revenues for the first quarter of 2008 were $8,414,326, a decline of $1,533,250, or 15%, compared to the first quarter of last year. Reduced demand in the domestic automotive market, and a decline in domestic economic activity impacting virtually all the markets we serve, resulted in lower fastener segment and assembly equipment segment sales. Although we reduced expenses wherever possible during the quarter, cost reductions were not sufficient to offset the effects of the decline in sales. The net result was net income of $27,663, or $0.03 per share, in the first quarter of 2008 compared to net income of $310,272, or $0.32 per share, in 2007. In the first quarter, fastener segment revenues declined $1,399,244, or 16%, from $8,725,371 in 2007 to $7,326,127 in 2008. The decline was primarily due to a reduction in domestic automotive production and a slowdown in the U.S. economy. Overall, manufacturing costs declined during the quarter due to the lower level of production activity. Additionally, the closing of the Jefferson, Iowa plant in 2007 resulted in approximately $56,000 in overhead cost reductions during the first quarter of 2008. The only significant increase during the quarter was tooling expense, which increased $76,000 as certain design work was performed in an attempt to improve production efficiency. The net result of these factors was a $521,000 reduction in fastener segment gross margin. Demand within the assembly equipment segment continues to be weak as evidenced by the 11% decline in sales, from $1,222,205 to $1,088,199, in the first quarter of 2008. While manufacturing costs declined due to the lower level of production activity, the reduction was not sufficient to offset the lower volume, resulting in a $61,000 decline in gross margin compared to the first quarter of 2007. Selling and administrative expenses during the first quarter of 2008 were $117,000 lower than the first quarter of 2007. Payroll and payroll related expenses account for approximately $43,000 of the decline, as a result of headcount reductions since the first quarter of last year. Commissions have declined $39,000 due to the lower sales activity in the current year quarter, while profit sharing expense has declined $40,000 due to the lower level of profitability. First quarter 2007 results included $18,074 for expenses related to the previously disclosed Jefferson, Iowa plant closing. These expenses related to preparing the building for sale and the transfer of assets to our Tyrone, Pennsylvania location. Working capital declined by $.2 million from the beginning of the year and amounted to $16.3 million at the end of the first quarter. While inventories and accounts payable have both increased $.5 million since the beginning of the year, their balances are down approximately $.4 million and $.3 million, respectively, compared to March 31, 2007. The decline since the beginning of the year in accrued profit sharing of $.2 million reflects the contribution for 2007 made to the Company plan during the first quarter. This amount is offset by a reduction in prepaid income taxes since the beginning of the year. The net result of these changes and other cash flow items on cash and certificates of deposit was a decrease of $.2 million, to $7.3 million, as of March 31, 2008. The Company has a $1.0 million line of credit, which expires May 31, 2008. This line of credit remains unused. Management believes that current cash, cash equivalents and operating cash flow will provide adequate working capital for the foreseeable future. The decline in revenues and net income in the first quarter of 2008 is primarily due to the impact of the weakening economy on our primary markets. Fastener segment sales have already been impacted in recent quarters by reduced production in the domestic automotive market as manufacturers adjusted their activities for reduced demand. With the slowdown in the domestic economy, we have seen a reduction in demand from other markets we serve. The assembly equipment segment has been weak for some time now, and reflects the continuing decline in manufacturing activity overall in the United States. We have adjusted our work schedules in response to reduced customer demand and will continue to emphasize cost controls wherever possible. In the near-term, we do not anticipate any significant improvements in the markets in which we are active, but will continue our efforts to increase revenues while also controlling costs. This discussion contains certain "forward-looking statements" which are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events to differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors which may cause such differences in events include, those disclosed under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the other filings we make with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. These factors, include among other things: conditions in the domestic automotive industry, upon 9 which we rely for sales revenue, the intense competition in our markets, the concentration of our sales to two major customers, the price and availability of raw materials, labor relations issues, losses related to product liability, warranty and recall claims, costs relating to environmental laws and regulations, the loss of the services of our key employees and difficulties in achieving cost savings. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. 10 CHICAGO RIVET & MACHINE CO. Item 4. Controls and Procedures. (a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the Company's principal executive officer) and President, Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer (the Company's principal financial officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act. (b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 11 PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION Item 4.
