               Flowserve Expects Improved First Quarter Earnings


DALLAS - April 5, 2002 - Flowserve Corp. (NYSE: FLS) today said that, based on
preliminary quarterly financial information, it expects to report first
quarter 2002 earnings per share in the range of 27 to 29 cents, in line with
the company's earlier guidance.

In the first quarter of the previous year, the company reported a net loss of
22 cents a share. Before integration expenses, earnings per share were 10
cents in the first quarter of 2001. Under current accounting rules, including
the new treatment of goodwill amortization, earnings per share before
integration expenses would have been 19 cents a share in the first quarter of
2001.

The company said it expects first quarter 2002 sales to be flat to slightly up
compared with $444.0 million in the first quarter of 2001.

Sequentially, first quarter 2002 bookings are expected to be up around 5
percent compared with $452.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. First
quarter 2002

bookings are expected to be down modestly primarily due to currency
translation, compared with $496.3 million in the year ago quarter.

The company also said it paid down $36.4 million of debt in the first quarter
of 2002, primarily as a result of improvements in cash flow and working
capital utilization.

"Preliminary information for the first quarter of 2002 supports our earlier
view that activity is improving in several of Flowserve's businesses," said
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer C. Scott Greer.

The company plans to release its final first quarter 2002 financial results on
April 23.
