HARSCO CORPORATION (Registrant) Date: April 13, 1994 By: /s/ Leonard A. Campanaro Leonard A. Campanaro Senior Vice President & Chief Financial Officer Independent Auditors' Report The Board of Directors and Stockholders, FMC Corporation We have audited the balance sheets of the Defense Systems Group of FMC Corporation as of December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the related statements of income and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1993. These financial statements are the responsibility of the company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based upon our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. 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 signficant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Defense Systems Group of FMC Corporation as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements, the company changed its method of accounting for post retirement benefits other than pensions in 1992.

No valuation allowance with respect to the deferred tax assets is considered necessary. 5. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS RETIREMENT PLANS Salaried employees of DSG are covered by FMC's Salaried Retirement Plan, which provides pension benefits based on years of service and an average of the highest 60 consecutive months of compensation during the last 120 months of consecutive employment. Plans covering hourly employees of DSG generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. The funding policy is to make contributions based on the projected unit credit actuarial cost method and to limit contributions to amounts that are currently deductible for tax reporting purposes. In 1992, net pension cost includes a pension curtailment charge of $4.6 million relating to the elimination of certain employees in the DSG hourly plans. The following table summarizes the assumptions used and the components of the net pension cost: Year Ended December 31, Assumptions: 1993 1992 1991 Weighted average discount rate 8.0% 8.0% 8.0% Rates of increase in future compensation levels 5.0% 5.0% 5.0% Weighted average expected long-term asset return 9.3% 9.3% 9.8% ________ ________ ________ Components: Service cost-benefits earned $ 7,537 $ 8,350 $ 8,105 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 13,374 12,604 11,195 Actual return on plan assets (31,751) (14,923) (33,857) Net amortization and deferral: Net transition asset amortization (1,006) (1,006) (1,006) Prior service cost amortization 1,632 6,390 1,990 Net (gain) loss amortization (213) 142 (98) Net asset gain (loss) deferred 12,493 (3,379) 16,637 ________ ________ ________ Net pension cost $ 2,066 $ 8,178 $ 2,966 ________ ________ ________ ________ ________ ________

POSTRETIREMENT HEALTH CARE AND LIFE INSURANCE Substantially all of DSG employees are covered by FMC's postretirement health care and life insurance benefit program. Employees generally become eligible for the retiree benefit plans when they meet minimum retirement age and service requirements. The cost of providing most of these benefits is shared with retirees. FMC has reserved the right to change or eliminate these benefit plans. FMC funds a trust for retiree health and life benefits for DSG. Funding is based on amounts in negotiated government defense contracts, in conformance with Governmental Cost Accounting Standards. Retroactive to January 1, 1992, FMC elected early adoption of SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," which requires accrual of the expected cost of providing postretirement benefits other than pensions, during the years of employee service. The adoption of SFAS No. 106 resulted in a one-time pre-tax charge of $74.9 million ($45.7 million, net of tax). Prior to 1992, the Group recognized postretirement health care costs using the cash basis of accounting, while the estimated costs of postretirement life insurance benefits were generally accrued over the employees' active working lives. These costs were $ 3.1 million in 1991. Actuarial assumptions used to determine costs and benefit obligations include a discount rate of 8 percent and a weighted average expected return on long-term assets of 9 percent. The assumed rate of future increases in per capita cost of health care benefits was 13 percent in 1993 and 1992, decreasing gradually to 6 percent by the year 2001. The following table summarizes the components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for 1993 and 1992: 1993 1992 Service cost of benefits earned $ 1,620 $ 1,925 Interest cost on accumulated postretirement benefit obligation 4,900 6,593 Actual return on plan assets (1,246) (707) Prior service cost amortization and net asset loss deferred (2,172) (454) _________ _________ Net periodic postretirement benefit cost $ 3,102 $ 7,357 _________ _________ _________ _________
Plan amendments adopted in 1993 reduced the accumulated benefit obligation by approximately $ 18.7 million. These amendments will be recognized as a reduction of plan costs over the average remaining service period of active plan participants. The status of the accrued postretirement benefit cost recognized in the balance sheet and the funded status of the plan as of December 31 were as follows: 1993 1992 Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO): Retirees $ (29,905) $ (27,663) Fully eligible active participants (9,080) (16,637) Other active participants (22,422) (41,084) _________ _________ APBO $ (61,407) $ (85,384) Plan assets at fair value 20,792 14,826 _________ _________ APBO in excess of plan assets (40,615) (70,558) Unamortized plan amendments (21,725) (4,966) Unrecognized (gain) loss (7,261) 362 _________ _________ Accrued postretirement benefit obligation $ (69,601) $ (75,162) _________ _________ _________ _________ Primarily fixed income securities
EMPLOYEES' THRIFT AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN All salaried and non-union hourly employees are included in FMC Employee Thrift and Stock Purchase Plan. Under the Thrift Plan, participants may elect to have up to 15 percent of their compensation contributed to the plan. An employee's contribution, up to 5 percent of compensation, is matched by the Group's 15 percent to 100 percent (80 percent prior to April 1, 1993) depending on profits and fund elections. A participant's interest in the Group's contribution vests gradually during the first five years of active service and is fully vested thereafter. The employee-elected contributions may be invested in FMC stock, a fixed income fund or an equity fund, as a participant elects. All matching contributions by the Group are invested in FMC stock. Charges for these benefits for the years 1993, 1992 and 1991, were $ 4.9 million, $ 4.4 million and $ 3.9 million, respectively. 6. EQUITY: INVESTMENT BY FMC CORPORATION The changes in equity during the three years ended December 31, 1993 were as follows: Balance December 31, 1990 $ 61,273 Net income for 1991 85,644 Net cash provided to FMC (66,304) _________ Balance December 31, 1991 80,613 Net income for 1992 46,952 Net cash provided to FMC (88,234) _________ Balance December 31, 1992 39,331 Net income for the year 85,560 Net cash provided to FMC (100,255) _________ Balance December 31, 1993 $ 24,636 _________ _________ 7. TRANSACTIONS WITH FMC The following summarizes the assumptions used in accounting for certain transactions between DSG and FMC. See also Notes 2 and 4. WORKING CAPITAL AND FINANCING REQUIREMENTS All capital requirements of DSG are funded through the operation of a centralized cash management system at FMC. Generally, all cash receipts are deposited to and all cash requirements are funded through the system on a daily basis. Cash activity is segregated and controlled through intercompany accounts, which are included in the accompanying financial statements as a component of Group Equity: Investment of FMC Corporation. ADMINISTRATIVE COST ALLOCATION The statements of income presented reflect an administrative cost allocation from FMC for certain expenses incurred at the corporate level for the benefit of the Group, aggregating $24.3 million, $20.4 million and $23.1 million for the years 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. The allocations are based on sales, numbers of FMC personnel, payroll dollars, estimates of time spent to provide services, or other rational measures. These allocations include general management, treasury, tax, financial audits, financial reporting, benefits administration, insurance, communication, public affairs, information management and other miscellaneous services. DIRECT CHARGES Other costs incurred at the FMC corporate level and charged directly to DSG on the basis of services used include the Corporate Technology Center, computer processing, employee benefits, pension and thrift plan costs, insurance and miscellaneous other expenses. Charges related to services other than employee benefits aggregated approximately $15.2 million, $17.0 million and $18.1 million in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Employee benefits are discussed further in Note 5. 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES MINIMUM LEASE PAYMENTS DSG leases manufacturing space and various types of equipment under operating leases. Total rent expense under all leases amounted to $4.4 million, $6.6 million and $5.7 million in the years 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Minimum future rentals under noncancellable leases aggregated approximately $18.2 million as of December 31, 1993, and are estimated to be payable $4.6 million in 1994, $4.4 million in 1995, $3.9 million in 1996, $1.9 million in 1997, $1.9 million in 1998 and $1.5 million in 1999. ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE AND REMEDIATION In accordance with the environmental accounting policy, reserves of approximately $6.5 million and $6.7 million have been provided at the end of 1993 and 1992, respectively. The liability arising from potential environmental obligations that have not been reserved for at this time--because amounts cannot be reasonably determined due to uncertainties associated with remedial-related activities, relevant clean-up technologies and methods, and amounts to be recovered from third parties--may or may not be material to any one year's results of operations in the future. Management, however, believes the liability arising from these potential environmental obligations is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Group's liquidity or financial condition and will be satisfied over many years. OFF BALANCE SHEET RISK DSG is contingently liable under outstanding letters of credit in the amount of approximately $32.1 million at December 31, 1993. OTHER CONTINGENT LIABILITIES DSG has certain contingent liabilities resulting from litigation, claims and commitments incident to the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the probable resolution of such contingencies will not materially affect the financial position or results of operations. HARSCO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Unaudited) On January 28, 1994, FMC Corporation ("FMC") and Harsco Corporation ("Harsco") announced completion of a series of agreements ("Agreements"), first announced in December 1992, to combine certain assets and liabilities of FMC's Defense Systems Group ("DSG") and Harsco's BMY-Combat Systems Division ("BMY-CS"). The effective date of the combination was January 1, 1994. The combined company, United Defense, L.P. ("UDLP"), will operate as a limited partnership, with FMC as the Managing General Partner with a 60 percent equity interest and Harsco Defense Holding, Inc. as the Limited Partner holding a 40 percent equity interest. The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements reflect the elimination of BMY-CS and accounting for the 40% ownership interest of Harsco in UDLP on the equity method of accounting. The assumption, for the balance sheet, is that the combination occurred on December 31, 1993, and for the statement of income that the combination date was January 1, 1993. The pro forma operating results are not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred had the combination actually taken place on January 1, 1993, or of what they are expected to be in 1994.

Under the Agreements, Harsco is required to contribute a total net asset value of $29.6 million including $5.2 million of cash. Harsco also will retain financial responsibility for certain items which are not contributed to the joint venture and sufficient accounts receivable balances to meet the total net asset value of $29.6 million. These adjustments are to reflect the contribution of cash, the retention of accounts receivable, and the retention of certain liability accounts as provided for in the Agreements. The assets and liabilities contributed by FMC and Harsco to the joint venture are recorded at their historical net book values and, consequently, no recognition is given to their fair market values at formation. In combining the assets and liabilities under this premise, Harsco's initial equity interest in UDLP has a net book value of $67 million, calculated at 40 percent of the combined net assets contributed by FMC and Harsco of $168 million. Therefore, Harsco's 40 percent equity interest in the joint venture exceeds the book value of the net assets contributed and acquisition costs incurred by approximately $34 million. However, no recognition is given to this amount in the Pro Forma Financial Statements. $4.4 million of general and administrative expense allocated to BMY in 1993 by Harsco has been retained by Harsco in order to approximate the operating results of Harsco assuming the transaction had occurred on January 1, 1993. The Agreements provide for sharing the income before income taxes of the venture generally on the basis of the partners' equity ownership interests, after giving effect to a limited partner preferred distribution. The Equity in Earnings of $84 million includes the limited partner preferred distribution and 40% of the remaining pro forma pre-tax earnings of UDLP. The pro forma earnings of the venture give effect to various income and expense adjustments in order to approximate the results of operations assuming the transaction had been effective on January 1, 1993. The income tax expense results from the taxable pro forma adjustments to income at a combined Federal and State statutory tax rate of approximately 40%.
