Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Participants, Administrator and Compensation Committee of
Albany International Corp. Prosperity Plus Savings Plan:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of Albany International Corp. Prosperity Plus Savings Plan (the “Plan”) at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements 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 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of Schedule H, Line 4i – Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

December 31, 2013 and 2012
| 1. | Description of Plan |
The following description of the Albany International Corp. (the “Company”) Prosperity Plus Savings Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Plan covers all full time domestic employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, except those covered by a collective bargaining agreement that does not provide for participation in the Plan, temporary employees, leased employees, contractors, internal and co-op students. Eligible employees hired on or after January 1, 2009, automatically become participants in the Plan for purposes of making Pre-Tax Participant Contributions, unless otherwise elected by the participant.
Contributions
Employees may make voluntary contributions to the Plan of 1% to 15% of eligible compensation, subject to certain limitations, on a before-and/or after-tax basis as defined in the Plan. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. Participants direct the investment of their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. The Plan currently offers various investment options including registered investment companies, common collective trusts, a participant directed brokerage option and Albany International Class A common stock. The Company makes a matching contribution to the Plan in varying percentages up to 5% of the participant’s eligible compensation.
Profit-Sharing Contribution
The Plan provides for a discretionary annual profit-sharing contribution. Profit-sharing contributions are based upon a minimum 1% employee participation in the Plan and are in addition to, and separate from, Company non-discretionary matching contributions. In order to receive a profit-sharing contribution, an employee must be an active contributing participant in the Plan on the last day of the year for which the profit-sharing contribution is made. If an employee is eligible, yet chooses to participate for less than a full year, the profit-sharing contribution will be pro-rated. The amount of the profit sharing contribution is based on a formula stated at the beginning of the year. The Company’s contribution for profit-sharing is in the form of cash and was $1,468,652 and $1,847,993 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and allocations of (a) the Company’s contributions and (b) Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.
Vesting
Participants are vested immediately in their and the Company’s contributions plus actual earnings thereon.

Payment of Benefits
Upon termination of service, total disability, death or retirement, participants have the option to receive an amount equal to the value of their accounts in a lump sum payment or, in the case of total disability or retirement, monthly installments over a period not to exceed 15 years. Participants may also elect prior to retirement to withdraw up to 100% of their after-tax contributions and up to 100% of before-tax contributions if the Internal Revenue Service’s criteria for “financial hardship” are met.
Plan Termination
The Company intends to continue the Plan indefinitely but reserves the right to modify, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan. In the event of plan termination, distributions would be allocated based on the value of the participant accounts.
Administrative Costs
The Plan stipulates that all direct costs incurred in administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company or, if the Compensation Committee so determines, by the Plan. The Company paid Plan administrative expenses of $125,676 and $123,358 during 2013 and 2012, respectively, which consisted of plan fiduciary services. Expenses paid by the Plan included investment advisory fees, and securities brokerage fees.
Notes Receivable From Participants
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000, minus the participant’s highest outstanding note balance over the last 12 months, or 50% of their account balance. Interest rates on notes are determined by the Compensation Committee from time to time with the rate remaining constant throughout the life of the note (rates range between 4.25% and 10.25% at December 31, 2013 and 2012). Notes are to be repaid through payroll deductions, although they may be repaid in a lump sum amount, generally over a period from 1 to 5 years except for notes for the purchase of a primary residence, which range from 5 to 20 years.
Transfers Out to Other Qualified Plans
Net transfers to other qualified plans primarily related to participants who left the Company due to the divesture of Albany Doors in 2012.
| 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires Plan management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of stocks, common collective trusts, registered investment companies and other investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plan’s investments are reported at fair value. Accounting principles define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Accounting principles establish a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The hierarchy is broken down into three general levels: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs include data points that are observable, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable for the asset and liability, either directly or indirectly; Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Investments in common collective trust funds are valued at the net asset values per share using available inputs to measure the fair value of such funds held by the Plan at year end. There are no penalties or restrictions for withdrawing assets from the common collective trust funds at any time.
Investments in registered investment companies are valued using the quoted sales price on the last business day of the year, which represents the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end.
Investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement of fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plan. The Plan invests in investment contracts through the Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust, a common collective trust. The statements of net assets available for benefits present the fair value of the investment in the common collective trust as well as the adjustment of the investment in the collective trust from fair value to contract value relating to the investment contracts. The statement of changes in net assets available for benefits are prepared on a contract value basis. The investment in the common collective trust is recorded at net asset value (prior to adjustment to contract value) of shares held by the Plan at year end. The net asset value is provided by the trustee and is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. The net asset value is based on the fair value of the funds investments less its liabilities.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2013 and 2012
There are no penalties or restrictions for withdrawing assets from the common collective trust at any time.
The common stock of Albany International Corp. and exchange traded funds, which are classified as registered investment companies, are valued using active markets at the latest quoted sales price on the last business day of the year on its principal exchange.
These methods may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
Security transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Gains or losses on sales of securities are based on average cost.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends declared by the Board of Directors of the Company on Albany International Corp. Class A common stock may be reinvested in the Plan or received as a cash distribution as elected by the participant. Total cash dividends received by participants were $340,632 and $650,568 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Interest income is recorded as earned.
The Plan presents in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits the net depreciation/appreciation in the fair value of its investments, which consists of realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation/depreciation on those investments.
Payment of Benefits
Benefit payments are recorded when paid.
Notes Receivable From Participants
Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Beginning in 2013, fees related to participant loans are paid by the participants. Prior to 2013, those fees were paid by the company. In 2012, the fees totaled $6,628 and were included in administrative expenses. No allowance for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
Expenses
Certain expenses of maintaining the Plan are paid directly by the Company and are excluded from these financial statements. Investment related expenses are included in net appreciation of fair value of investments.
Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were available to be issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

| 4. | Related Party Transactions |
The Plan invests in shares of mutual funds (including the Vanguard brokerage option) managed by an affiliate of Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (“VFTC”). VFTC acts as trustee for the investments held by the Plan. The Plan also invests in shares of the Plan Sponsor’s Albany International Class A common stock. The Plan purchased $9,021,734 and $9,363,950 and sold $15,652,051 and $13,399,298 of Albany International Class A common stock during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Transactions in such investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions which are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules. Participant loans also qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
| 5. | Tax Status |
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated January 31, 2003, that the Plan is qualified and the trust established under the Plan is tax-exempt, under the appropriate sections of the Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial statement date.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability if the organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for plan years prior to 2011.
| 6. | Reconciliation of Financial Statements to Form 5500 |
Certain fully benefit-responsive contracts of the Plan, such as the common/collective Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust, are recorded on the financial statements at contract value, but are recorded on Form 5500 at fair value.
In addition, notes receivable from participants that are in default continue to be treated on the financial statements as notes receivable, but are treated on Form 5500 as deemed distributions, which are considered taxable distributions from the Plan.
