Annual Report on Form 10-K includes forward-looking statements based on the Company&#146;s
current expectations, which are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking
statements include information concerning future results of operations and financial
conditions. Statements that contain words such as &#147;believes,&#148;
&#147;expects,&#148; &#147;anticipates,&#148; &#147;intends,&#148; &#147;estimates,&#148;

&#147;plan,&#148; &#147;project,&#148; &#147;predict,&#148; &#147;will&#148; or similar
expressions are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject
to risks and uncertainties, and many factors could affect the future financial results of
the Company. Factors that may have a material effect on our revenues, expenses and
operating results include adverse business or market conditions, the Company&#146;s
ability to secure and satisfy customers, the availability and cost of materials from
suppliers, adverse competitive developments and changes in customer requirements.
Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the
forward-looking statements contained in this Report. Any forward-looking statements made
by or on our behalf are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report are based on current assumptions
that the Company will continue to develop, market, manufacture and ship products and
provide services on a competitive and timely basis, that competitive conditions in the
Company&#146;s markets will not change in a materially adverse way, that the Company will
accurately identify and meet customer needs for products and services, that the Company
will be able to retain and hire key employees, that the Company&#146;s capabilities will
remain competitive, that risks related to shifts in customer demand are minimized and that
there will be no material adverse change in the operations or business of the Company.
Assumptions relating to these factors involve judgments that are based on incomplete
information and are subject to changes in many factors beyond the control of the Company
that can materially affect results. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Because
of these and other factors that affect our operating results, past financial performance
should not be considered an indicator of future performance, and investors should not use
historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. The following risks
factors may also materially affect results and should be considered: </FONT></P>

this segment of our business, products and services are principally sold directly or
through agents to the end-user or to an EPC (engineering, procurement and construction)
firm on behalf of the end-user. We market our products and services to a wide variety of
customers, markets and geographic regions; as a result, we are not dependent on any one
customer or market for sales. Export revenues were $39.1 million, $26.2 million, and $19.1
million in fiscal years 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. </FONT></P>

each of the past three fiscal years, we did not have any one customer that accounted for

material adverse effect on our business; however, we could be adversely impacted by a
significant reduction in business volume from a key customer market. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
this segment of our business, products and services are principally sold to the
transportation, environmental, industrial, utility, and governmental sectors. We may be
dependent on one specific contract or customer for a significant percentage of our
revenues due to the nature of large, long-term construction projects. During 2003, we
received a contract to design and build Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) for the
Port Authority of New York and New Jersey which accounted for 16% of segment revenues in
fiscal 2003. We anticipate revenues from this contract will constitute approximately 55%
of our segment revenues in 2004. In each of the past three fiscal years, we had revenues
with one or more customers that individually accounted for more than 10% of our segment
revenues. Revenues from these customers totaled $4.8 million, $2.9 million and $3.8
million in fiscal 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The loss of any specific customer
could have a material adverse effect on segment revenues. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Market
conditions throughout fiscal 2003 were challenging. We experienced a significant reduction
in demand for our products. In our Electrical Power Products segment, market price levels
deteriorated early in the year as competition for available business volume intensified.
Despite weak market conditions, we successfully increased both revenues and earnings in our
Process Control Systems business segment. We also successfully expanded system
modification and replacement equipment activity in both business segments. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With
a depressed economy, we intensified our focus on working capital management. We achieved
record levels of cash flow from operating activities during 2003. As of year end, Powell
Industries held cash, cash equivalents and marketable securites of $42 million, an increase of $28 million
over fiscal 2002. </FONT></P>

revenues decreased 17% to $253.4 million in fiscal 2003 as compared to fiscal year 2002
revenues of $306.4 million. Domestic revenues decreased $64.8 million to $213.6 million in
2003 compared to 2002. Despite weaknesses in domestic markets, new investments in oil and
gas production facilities contributed to increased international revenues in fiscal 2003.
Revenues outside of the United States accounted for 16% of consolidated revenues in 2003
compared to 9% in 2002. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our
Electrical Power Products segment recorded revenues in fiscal 2003 of $227.0 million
compared to $283.6 million in fiscal 2002. Revenues from public and private utilities fell
by 55% in fiscal 2003. In particular, there was a significant decline in new investments
in electrical power generation facilities. Utility revenues were $79 million in 2003
compared to a record $173 million in 2002. Our municipal customers faced a reduced tax
base with which to fund infrastructure projects in 2003. Municipal and transit projects
generated revenues of $23 million compared to $29 million in 2002. However, revenues from
industrial customers totaled $125 million in fiscal 2003, an increase of $44 million, or
54%, over 2002. This increase in revenue from industrial customers resulted primarily from
revenues related to the manufacture and delivery of power control modules for new oil and
gas production facilities. These long-term projects to construct new oil and gas
production facilities were initiated by our customers during 2001 and 2002. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gross
profit, as a percentage of revenues was 18.8% in fiscal 2003, compared to 22.0% in fiscal
year 2002. Gross profit has been adversely impacted by lower production volumes and
competitive pricing pressures. Partially offsetting adverse market conditions were the
results of our efforts to reduced our costs of production by improving operating
efficiencies through the implementation of lean initiatives. In addition, we incurred an
impairment loss of $0.4 million to decrease the carrying value of machinery and equipment
to their estimated market value. This impairment loss resulted from our decision to
discontinue certain product lines. These product lines generated aggregate revenues of
less than $1.0 million in fiscal 2003. </FONT></P>

in our Process Control Systems segment increased 16% to $26.4 million compared to $22.8

and build Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) for the Holland and Lincoln tunnels
from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey valued at $37.4 million. Revenue
attributable to this project totaled $4.2 million during fiscal 2003. Gross profit, as a

provision for income taxes reflects an effective tax rate on earnings before income taxes
of 44.9% in fiscal 2003 compared to 37.1% in fiscal 2002. Included in our provision is
$1.3 million for state taxes (net of federal tax benefit) of which $0.9 million reflects
revised estimates in state tax exposures related to prior years. Over the past several
years, our business has expanded and we are now conducting activities in more states. We
have accordingly increased our estimates for such state tax exposures. Going forward, we
anticipate our effective tax rate to range from 37.6% to 37.9%. </FONT></P>

a result of the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (&#147;SFAS&#148;)
No. 142, &#147;Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,&#148; we recorded a goodwill
impairment loss of $510 thousand, net of $285 thousand taxes, as a cumulative effect of a
change in accounting principle during the first quarter of 2003. We recorded an impairment
charge of $380 thousand, net of $214 thousand taxes, to write off the full value of
goodwill in our Process Control Systems segment. In our Electrical Power Products segment,
we recorded an impairment charge of $130 thousand, net of $71 thousand taxes. The goodwill

income was $7.1 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, in fiscal year 2003 compared to $17.9
million, or $1.67 per diluted share in fiscal year 2002. The decrease in net income
primarily relates to lower business volume and decreased gross profits in fiscal 2003.
Additionally, net income was negatively impacted as a result of an impairment loss of $0.2
million, net of taxes, recorded to decrease the carrying value of machinery and equipment;
an increase in estimates for state tax exposures related to prior years of $0.9 million,
net of federal tax benefits; and the net effect of a change in accounting principle
related to goodwill accounted for $0.5 million. Each of these adjustments to net income
are discussed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. </FONT></P>

fiscal 2002 of $ 283.6 million compared to $244.8 million in fiscal 2001. During fiscal
2002 one aspect of our revenue growth was due to new worldwide investments in oil and gas

in property, plant and equipment during fiscal 2003 totaled $4.5 million compared to $13.9
million in fiscal 2002. The majority of these expenditures were used to complete a project
initiated during 2002 to increase our manufacturing capacity available for the manufacture
of electrical power control modules. These modules are provided to the oil and gas
industry for use on offshore platforms. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
expect a continued weakness and depressed price levels in the Electrical Power Product
markets we serve, and anticipate a decline in consolidated revenues of 7% to 13% in fiscal
2004. We expect full year revenues to range between $220 million and $235 million.
Earnings from continuing operations are expected to range between $0.48 and $0.63 per
diluted share. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
anticipate that our cash position will continue to grow during the first three quarters of
2004. Fourth quarter working capital needs are anticipated to increase with growing levels
of business activity. We will continue to invest in our manufacturing capabilities and
expect capital expenditures during fiscal year 2004 to range between $5.0 million and $8.0
million. We believe that working capital, borrowing capabilities, and funds generated from
operations should be sufficient to finance anticipated operational activities, capital
improvements, debt repayment and possible future acquisitions for the foreseeable future. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
each of the past three years, we have not experienced a significant effect of inflation on
our operations. We continue to evaluate the potential impact inflation could have on our
business and future operations and attempt to minimize inflationary impacts by including
escalation clauses in our long-term contracts. Recent economic and industry reports
indicate that the current conditions should remain relatively unchanged for the
foreseeable future. We do not anticipate a significant impact on operations in 2004 due to
inflation. </FONT></P>

<!-- MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent" FSL="Default" -->
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
2003, we experienced a significant deterioration in business volume due to the effect of
the U.S. economy on the customers we serve. New investments in infrastructure projects
were curtailed by both our utility and industrial customers. Our municipal customers faced
a reduced tax base with which to fund infrastructure projects in 2003. We anticipate these
conditions will persist into 2004. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and
judgments with respect to the selection and application of accounting policies that affect
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on
various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Actual results may differ from these estimates. </FONT></P>

revenues are generated from the manufacture and delivery of custom-manufactured products.
We recognize revenues under both the completed contract method and the
percentage-of-completion method depending upon the duration and the scope of the project.
At the onset of each project, the size and duration of the contract is reviewed to
determine the appropriate revenue recognition method based upon company policy. Due to the
nature of the projects in the Process Control Systems segment, all revenues are recorded
using percentage-of-completion. However, projects in the Electrical Power Products segment
vary widely; thus, both the completed contract and percentage-of-completion methods are

the completed contract method, revenues are recognized upon the transfer of title, which
is generally at the time of shipment or delivery depending upon the terms of the contract,
when all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied, the price is fixed or
determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. We use shipping documents and
customer acceptance, when applicable, to verify the transfer of title to the customer. We
assess whether the price is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated
with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment.
Collectibility is assessed based on the creditworthiness of the customer based on credit
verification and the customer&#146;s payment history. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
the percentage-of-completion method, revenues are recognized as work is performed based
upon the ratio of labor dollars or hours incurred to date to total estimated labor dollars
or hours to measure the stage of completion. The sales and gross profit recognized in each
period are adjusted prospectively for any revisions in the total estimated contract costs,
total estimated labor hours to complete the project, or total contract value. Whenever
revisions of estimated contract costs and contract values indicate that the contract costs
will exceed estimated revenues, thus creating a loss, a provision for the total estimated
loss is recorded in that period. Due to the number of estimates used in the
percentage-of-completion calculations, conditions such as changes in job performance, job
conditions, estimated contract costs and profitability may result in revisions to original
assumptions, thus causing actual results to differ from original estimates. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully
recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the evaluation is based on
impairment indicators such as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefit of the
assets, any historical or future profitability measurements and other external market
conditions or factors that may be present. If such impairment indicators are present or
other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be
recoverable, we determine whether impairment has occurred through the use of an
undiscounted cash flows analysis of the asset at the lowest level for which identifiable
cash flows exist, or quoted market prices. If an asset is considered to be impaired, a
loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its
fair value. For assets held for sale or disposal, the fair value of the asset is measured
using quoted market prices or an estimation of net realizable value. Assets are classified
as held for sale when there is a plan for disposal and those assets meet the held for sale
criteria of SFAS No. 144. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the
carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. </FONT></P>

Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 146, &#147;Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or
Disposal Activities.&#148; Under SFAS No. 146, companies are required to recognize costs
associated with restructurings, discontinued operations, plant closings or other exit or

Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others&#148; (&#147;FIN 45&#148;). FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of a
guarantee, a guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation
assumed under the guarantee. FIN 45 also requires additional disclosures about guarantees
in the interim and annual financial statements. The provisions of FIN 45 related to
initial recognition and measurement of guarantee agreements were effective for any

December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.&#148; This
statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change in the method
of accounting for stock-based employee compensation to the fair value method. The
statement also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, &#147;Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation.&#148; Under SFAS No. 148, annual and interim financial
statements are required to have prominent disclosures about the method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.
This statement was effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. This

manage our exposure to changes in interest rates by optimizing the use of variable rate
debt. A 1.0% increase in interest rates would result in an annual increase in interest
expense of less than $75 thousand. In addition to variable rate debt, we also invest in
marketable debt securities that are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance
sheet, with unrealized gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income. Changes in
interest rates will affect the fair value of the marketable securities as reported.
However, we believe that changes in interest rates will not have a material near-term
impact on our future earnings or cash flows. During each of the past three years, we have
not experienced a significant effect on our business due to changes in interest rates. </FONT></P>

preparation of financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. The amounts we record for
insurance claims, warranties, legal and other contingent liabilities require judgments
regarding the amount of expenses that will ultimately be incurred. We use past experience
and history, as well as other specific circumstances surrounding these claims in
evaluating the amount of liability that should be recorded. Actual results could differ

receivable are stated net of allowances for doubtful accounts. The estimated allowance is

the overall level of outstanding accounts receivable, information about specific customers
with respect to their inability to make payments and expectations of future conditions
that could impact the collectibility of accounts receivable. We continually assess our
allowance for doubtful accounts and may increase or decrease our periodic provision as
additional information regarding collectibility becomes available. Our domestic
receivables are generally not collateralized. However, we utilize letters of credit to
secure payment on sales outside of the U.S. and Canada. At October 31, 2003 and 2002,
accounts receivable included retention amounts of $6.2 million and $7.8 million,
respectively. Retention amounts are in accordance with applicable provisions of
engineering and construction contracts and become due upon completion of contractual
requirements. Approximately $1.3 million of the retained amount at October 31, 2003 is

evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully
recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the evaluation is based on
impairment indicators such as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefit of the
assets, any historical or future profitability measurements and other external market
conditions or factors that may be present. If such impairment indicators are present or
other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be
recoverable, we determine whether impairment has occurred through the use of an
undiscounted cash flows analysis of the asset at the lowest level for which identifiable
cash flows exist, or quoted market prices. If an asset is considered to be impaired, a
loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its
fair value. For assets held for sale or disposal, the fair value of the asset is measured
using quoted market prices or an estimation of net realizable value. Assets are classified
as held for sale when there is a plan for disposal and those assets meet the held for sale
criteria of SFAS No. 144. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the
carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. </FONT>

the year ended October 31, 2003, we recorded an impairment loss of $382 thousand in our
Electrical Power Products segment to decrease the carrying value of machinery and
equipment to their estimated market value. During 2003, we decided to discontinue certain
product lines which generated revenues of less than $1.0 million in fiscal 2003. As a
result of this decision, we evaluated the estimated fair value of these assets by
obtaining used equipment sales prices for similar assets. Based on our evaluation, we
determined the assets were impaired and accordingly recorded the loss. This loss is shown
as a component of cost of goods sold in our consolidated statement of operations. The $76
thousand estimated fair value of the assets is classified as held for sale at October 31,
2003 and included in other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. No other
impairment adjustments were made during the periods presented. </FONT>

estimated useful lives. Upon completion we performed the impairment test, and as a result
of this test, we recorded an impairment of $510 thousand,
net of $285 thousand taxes, to write off the impaired goodwill amounts as a cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle. For additional information regarding our
intangible assets and the goodwill impairment, see Note H. </FONT>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our revenues are generated from the manufacture and
delivery of custom-manufactured products.  We recognize
revenues under both the completed contract method and the percentage-of-completion method depending
upon the duration and the scope of the project. At the onset of each project, the size and
duration of the contract is reviewed to determine the appropriate revenue recognition
method based upon company policy. Due to the nature of the projects in the Process Control
Systems segment, all revenues are recorded using percentage-of-completion. However,
projects in the Electrical Power Products segment vary widely; thus, both the completed

the completed contract method, revenues are recognized upon the transfer of title, which
is generally at the time of shipment or delivery depending upon the terms of the contract,

customer acceptance, when applicable, to verify the transfer of title to the customer. We
assess whether the price is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated
with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment.
Collectibility is assessed based on the creditworthiness of the customer based on credit
verification and the customer&#146;s payment history. </FONT>

the percentage-of-completion method, revenues are recognized as work is performed based
upon the ratio of labor dollars or hours incurred to date to total estimated labor dollars

period are adjusted prospectively for any revisions in the total estimated contract costs,
total estimated labor hours to complete the project, or total contract value. Whenever
revisions of estimated contract costs and contract values indicate that the contract costs
will exceed estimated revenues, thus creating a loss, a provision for the total estimated
loss is recorded in that period. Due to the number of estimates used in the
percentage-of-completion calculations, conditions such as changes in job performance, job
conditions, estimated contract costs and profitability may result in revisions to original
assumptions, thus causing actual results to differ from original estimates. </FONT>

Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others&#148; (&#147;FIN 45&#148;). FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of a
guarantee, a guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation
assumed under the guarantee. FIN 45 also requires additional disclosures about guarantees
in the interim and annual financial statements. The provisions of FIN 45 related to
initial recognition and measurement of guarantee agreements were effective for any

December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.&#148; This
statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change in the method
of accounting for stock-based employee compensation to the fair value method. The
statement also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, &#147;Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation.&#148; Under SFAS No. 148, annual and interim financial
statements are required to have prominent disclosures about the method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.
This statement was effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. This

have a defined employee contribution 401(k) plan for substantially all of our employees.
We match 50% of employee contributions up to an employee contribution of six percent of
each employee&#146;s salary. We recognized expenses of $1.4 million, $1.4 million and $1.2

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have established an employee stock ownership plan (&#147;ESOP&#148;) for the benefit of
substantially all full-time employees other than employees covered by a collective
bargaining agreement to which the ESOP has not been extended by any agreement or action of
ours. The ESOP initially purchased 793,525 shares of the Company&#146;s common stock from
a major stockholder. At October 31, 2003 and 2002 there were 634,629 and 651,755 shares in
the trust with 358,712 and 330,975 shares allocated to participants, respectively. The
funding for this plan was provided through a loan from the Company of $4.5 million. This
loan will be repaid by the ESOP over a twenty-year period with equal payments of $424
thousand per year including interest at 7 percent. We recorded deferred compensation as a
contra-equity account for the amount loaned to the ESOP in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets. We are required to make annual contributions to the ESOP to enable it to
repay its loan to us. The deferred compensation account is amortized as compensation
expense over twenty years as employees earn their shares for services rendered. The loan
agreement also provides for prepayment of the loan if we elect to make any additional
contributions. The compensation expense for fiscal years 2003, 2002 and 2001 was $277
thousand, $252 thousand, and $247 thousand, respectively. The receivable from the ESOP is
recorded as a reduction from stockholders&#146; equity and the allocated and unallocated
shares of the ESOP are treated as outstanding common stock in the computation of earnings
per share. As of October 31, 2003, the remaining ESOP receivable was $1.8 million. </FONT>

October 1985 and February 1987, we entered into Executive Benefit Agreements with several
key officers and employees. Three participants remain in this deferred compensation plan,
which provides for payments in accordance with a predetermined plan upon retirement or
death. We recognize the cost of this plan over the projected years of service of the
participant. We have insured the lives of these key employees to assist in the funding of
the deferred compensation liability. </FONT>

November 1992, we established a plan to extend to retirees health benefits which are
available to active employees under our existing health plans. Participants became
eligible for retiree health care benefits when they retired from active service at age 55
with a minimum of ten years of service. Generally, the health plans paid a stated
percentage of medical and dental expenses reduced for any deductible and co-payment. These
plans are unfunded. Medical coverage may be continued by the retired employee up to age 65
at the average cost to the Company of active employees. At the age of 65, when the
employee became eligible for Medicare, the benefits provided by the Company were to be
reduced by the amount provided by Medicare and the cost to the retired employee would be
reduced to 50 percent of the average cost to the Company of active employees. </FONT>

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
1994, we modified our postretirement benefits to provide retiree health care benefits to
only current retirees and active employees who were eligible to retire by December 31,
1999. Participants eligible for such benefits were required to pay between 20 percent and
100 percent of our average cost of benefits based on years of service. In addition,
benefits would end upon the employee&#146;s attainment of age 65. The effect of these
modifications significantly reduced our postretirement benefit cost and accumulated
benefit obligation. </FONT>

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
plan was amended effective January 1, 2000 to provide coverage for employees, age 55 or
more but less than 65, who retire on or after January 1, 2000 with at least 10 years of
service. The retiree is required to pay the full retiree cost less the amount paid by the
Company, which is a percentage of the year 2000 cost. Effective as of the November 1, 2002
valuation date, retirees are required to pay the COBRA rate, instead of the full retiree
cost, less the Company&#146;s subsidy. Based on the current assumptions relating to our
workforce and their probable retirement, this change in plan may result in an increased
benefit obligation of $1.1 million as shown below. </FONT>

September 1998, we entered into a $10 million term loan with a domestic bank. This loan
had a maturity of five years with nineteen equal quarterly payments of $357 thousand. At
the same time, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement in order to manage our
interest rate exposure. This agreement was accounted for on the accrual basis. Income and
expense resulting from this agreement were recorded in the same category as interest
expense accruals on the related term loan. Amounts to be paid or received under the
interest rate swap agreement were recognized as an adjustment to interest expense in the
periods in which they occurred. The agreement required that we pay the counterparty at the
fixed swap rate of 5.2% per annum and required the counterparty to pay us interest at the
90 day LIBOR rate. In September 2003, we paid the remaining principal balance of $4.3
million on our term loan and settled the associated interest rate swap agreement with a
final payment of $34 thousand. </FONT>

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
borrowed $8 million in October 2001 through a loan agreement funded with proceeds from
tax-exempt industrial development revenue bonds (&#147;Bonds&#148;). These Bonds were
issued by the Illinois Development Finance Authority and were used for the completion of
our Northlake, IL facility. A reimbursement agreement between the Company and a major
domestic bank required an issuance by the bank of an irrevocable direct-pay letter of
credit to the Bonds&#146; trustee to guarantee payment of the Bonds&#146; principal and
interest when due. The letter of credit terminates on October 25, 2006, and is subject to
both early termination and extension provisions customary to such agreements. The Bonds
mature in 2021 but the reimbursement agreement requires the Company to provide for
redemption of one twentieth of the par value of the Bonds beginning on October 25, 2002,
and each subsequent anniversary. A sinking fund is used for the redemption of the Bonds.
As of October 31, 2003, the remaining balance was $7.2 million. The Bonds bear interest at
a floating rate determined weekly by the Bonds&#146; remarketing agent, which was the
underwriter for the Bonds and is an affiliate of the bank. This interest rate was 1.2% per
annum on October 31, 2003. </FONT>

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
have a $15 million revolving line of credit agreement with a major domestic bank which was
amended in October 2003 to extend the maturity date to February 2006. The revolving line
of credit allows us to elect an interest rate on amounts borrowed of (1) the bank&#146;s
prime rate, which was 4% at October 31, 2003, less .5% (on the first $5 million) and the
bank&#146;s prime rate on additional borrowings, or (2) the LIBOR rate, which was 1.2% at
October 31, 2003, plus an additional percentage of .75% to 1.25% based on our performance.
A fee of .20% to .25% is charged on the unused balance of the line. The agreement contains
customary affirmative and negative covenants and requirements to maintain a minimum level
of tangible net worth and profitability. As of October 31, 2003, we were in compliance
with all debt covenants. The amount available under this agreement is reduced by $0.8
million for our outstanding letters of credit. The direct pay letter of credit
guaranteeing payment on our industrial development revenue bonds does not affect the
available credit under this agreement. There were no borrowings under this line of credit
as of year-end. </FONT>

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective
November 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 142, &#147;Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets&#148;. Under the new rules, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite
useful lives are no longer subject to amortization. As a result, we discontinued the
amortization of goodwill beginning November 1, 2002, and the fiscal year 2003 results were
favorably impacted by this reduction in amortization expense by $90 thousand, net of $53
thousand taxes, or $0.01 per diluted share. The statement requires a test for impairment
to be performed annually, or immediately if conditions indicate that impairment could
exist. Intangible assets with definite useful lives will continue to be amortized over
their estimated useful lives.</FONT>

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We
estimated the fair value of our reporting units using a present value method that
discounted estimated future cash flows. The cash flow estimates incorporated assumptions
on future cash flow growth, terminal values and discount rates. Because the fair value of
some reporting units was below their carrying value, application of SFAS No. 142 required
us to complete the second step of the goodwill impairment test and compare the implied
fair value of each reporting unit&#146;s goodwill with the carrying value. As a result of
completing the impairment test, we recorded an impairment charge of $510 thousand, net of
$285 thousand taxes, to write-off the impaired goodwill amounts as a cumulative effect of
a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of 2003. We recorded an impairment
charge of $380 thousand, net of $214 thousand taxes, to write off the full value of
goodwill in our Process Control Systems segment. In our Electrical Power Products segment,
we recorded an impairment charge of $130 thousand, net of $71 thousand taxes. No
additional impairment was identified as a result of performing our annual impairment test
for 2003. </FONT>

Company is a partner in a joint venture (the &#147;Joint Venture&#148;),which provided
process control systems to the Central Artery/Tunnel Project (the &#147;Project&#148;) in
Boston, Massachusetts, under a contract with the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority (the
&#147;MTA&#148;). The Joint Venture has submitted claims against the MTA seeking
additional reimbursement for work done by the Joint Venture on the project. In a separate
matter, the Joint Venture received notice dated May 9, 2002 (the &#147;Notice&#148;) from
the MTA that a follow-on contractor has asserted a claim against the MTA in connection
with work done or to be done by the follow-on contractor on the project. One component of
the Project involved the Joint Venture performing specific work that the MTA then bid for
the follow-on contractor to complete. The follow-on contractor&#146;s claim, in part,
includes unsubstantiated allegations that work performed by the Joint Venture was
insufficient and defective, thus possibly contributing to the follow-on contractor&#146;s
claims for damages against the MTA. In the Notice of the potential claim, the MTA advised
the Joint Venture that if it is required to pay the follow-on contractor additional
amounts and such payment is the result of defective work by the Joint Venture, the MTA
will seek indemnification from the Joint Venture for such additional amounts. </FONT>

Joint Venture has no reason to believe the systems it delivered under contract to the MTA
were defective and accordingly it intends to vigorously defend any such allegations. The
ultimate disposition of the Joint Venture&#146;s claim against the MTA and the MTA&#146;s
potential claim for indemnification based on the follow-on contractor&#146;s claims are
not presently determinable. Although an unfavorable outcome to the follow-on
contractor&#146;s claim could have a material adverse effect on the Company&#146;s
financial condition and results of operations, the Company believes that an unfavorable
outcome with respect to these matters, under the circumstances and on the basis of the
information now available, is unlikely. </FONT>

provide an employee stock option plan in which 2.1 million shares of our common stock
would be made available through an incentive program for certain employees. The awards
available under the plan include both stock options and stock grants, and are subject to
certain conditions and restrictions as determined by the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors. There were no stock grants during fiscal years 2003, 2002 and 2001.
Stock options granted to the employees are non-qualified and are granted at an exercise
price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Generally,
options granted have terms of seven years from the date of grant and will vest in
increments of 20 percent per year over a five year period. The plan provides for
additional stock to be awarded equal to 20 percent of all options which are exercised and
then held for a period of five years. There were 170,512 shares available to be granted
under this plan as of October 31, 2003. </FONT>

<TD WIDTH=100%><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our
Electrical Power Products segment serves the electrical utility and various industrial
markets with equipment and systems. Electrical Power Products was previously reported as
two separate segments: Switchgear and Bus Duct. Because these segments share basic
characteristics, including common raw materials, engineering techniques and manufacturing
processes, and operate in the same competitive environment with substantially similar
general economic and industrial conditions, we determined that reporting the business
activities of Switchgear and Bus Duct products as one segment &#151; Electrical Power
Products &#150; more accurately reflects our business operations. Historically, we
reported our Electrical Power Products segment as two segments principally as a reflection
of our organizational structure. The years ended October 31, 2002 and 2001 have been
revised to conform to the new segment structure. </FONT>

     <TD WIDTH="90%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of Powell Industries, Inc.;<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based on my knowledge,  this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;necessary to make the statements  made, in light of the  circumstances  under which such statements were made, not misleading<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;with respect to the period covered by this report;<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based on my knowledge,  the financial statements,  and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;all material  respects the financial  condition,  results of operations  and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;periods presented in this report;<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The registrant's  other certifying  officer and I are responsible for  establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;designed such disclosure controls and procedures,  or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;our  supervision,  to  ensure  that  material  information  relating  to  the  registrant,   including  its  consolidated<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;subsidiaries,  is made known to us by others within those entities,  particularly  during the period in which this report<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;is being prepared;<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;evaluated the  effectiveness  of the  registrant's  disclosure  controls and  procedures and presented in this report our<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;conclusions  about the  effectiveness of the disclosure  controls and procedures,  as of the end of the period covered by<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;this report based on such evaluation; and<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;disclosed  in this  report any change in the  registrant's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  (as defined in<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Exchange Act Rules  13-15(f) and  15d-15(f))  that  occurred  during the  registrant's  most recent  fiscal  quarter (the<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;registrant's  fourth  fiscal  quarter in the case of an annual  report) that has  materially  affected,  or is reasonably<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting, and<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed,  based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;financial reporting,  to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;performing the equivalent functions):<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;all  significant  deficiencies  and material  weaknesses  in the design or operation of internal  control over  financial<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;reporting which are reasonably  likely to adversely affect the  registrant's  ability to record,  process,  summarize and<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;report financial information; and<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;any fraud,  whether or not material,  that  involves  management  or other  employees who have a significant  role in the<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;registrant's internal control over financial reporting.<BR>

<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The registrant's  other certifying  officer and I are responsible for  establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;designed such disclosure controls and procedures,  or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;our  supervision,  to  ensure  that  material  information  relating  to  the  registrant,   including  its  consolidated<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;subsidiaries,  is made known to us by others within those entities,  particularly  during the period in which this report<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;is being prepared;<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;evaluated the  effectiveness  of the  registrant's  disclosure  controls and  procedures and presented in this report our<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;conclusions  about the  effectiveness of the disclosure  controls and procedures,  as of the end of the period covered by<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;this report based on such evaluation; and<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;disclosed  in this  report any change in the  registrant's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  (as defined in<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Exchange Act Rules  13-15(f) and  15d-15(f))  that  occurred  during the  registrant's  most recent  fiscal  quarter (the<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;registrant's  fourth  fiscal  quarter in the case of an annual  report) that has  materially  affected,  or is reasonably<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting, and<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed,  based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;financial reporting,  to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;performing the equivalent functions):<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;all  significant  deficiencies  and material  weaknesses  in the design or operation of internal  control over  financial<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;reporting which are reasonably  likely to adversely affect the  registrant's  ability to record,  process,  summarize and<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;report financial information; and<BR>
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;any fraud,  whether or not material,  that  involves  management  or other  employees who have a significant  role in the<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;registrant's internal control over financial reporting.<BR>
