The only component of other comprehensive income that the Company has is foreign currency translation adjustments. The components of comprehensive income are as follows: (In thousands) Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30 September 30 ------------------ ------------------ 1998 1997 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- -------- Net income $163,870 $149,130 $488,507 $426,779 Foreign currency translation adjustments, net of tax (14,962) (34,529) (42,719) (92,781) -------- -------- -------- -------- Total comprehensive income $148,908 $114,601 $445,788 $333,998 ======== ======== ======== ======== Effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999, the Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative will either be reported as gain or loss in current earnings or as a component of comprehensive income. Upon adoption of the new standard, the Company does not expect net income or comprehensive income to be materially affected. Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis ENGINEERED COMPONENTS SEGMENT Businesses in this segment manufacture short lead-time components and fasteners primarily for automotive, construction and general industrial applications. They also manufacture specialty products such as adhesives and static-control equipment.

In North America, revenues increased in 1998 versus 1997 largely due to acquisitions, which contributed 10% and 6% to the revenue growth for the three-month and nine-month periods, respectively. For both the three-month and year-to-date periods, the general industrial and construction businesses were the primary contributors to revenue growth in the base businesses. Operating income grew for both periods of 1998 due to acquisitions and cost reductions in the base businesses. Margins improved in both periods due to cost improvements in the base businesses, partially offset by lower margins for the acquired businesses. Internationally, revenues increased for both periods of 1998 compared with 1997 primarily due to acquisitions, which had contributions to revenue growth of 10% for the third quarter and 9% for the year-to-date period. The automotive and general industrial businesses were the primary contributors to the base businesses' revenue growth for both periods. The effect of unfavorable currency translation reduced revenues by 4% for the third quarter and 6% for the year-to-date period. Operating income increased for both the three-month and nine-month periods mainly due to cost reductions in the base businesses. Margins were flat in the third quarter and lower in the year-to-date period as a result of the lower margins of acquired companies offsetting the cost improvements in the base businesses. INDUSTRIAL SYSTEMS AND CONSUMABLES SEGMENT Businesses in this segment produce longer lead-time machinery and related consumables primarily for the food and beverage, construction, automotive and general industrial markets. They also manufacture specialty products for applications such as industrial spray coating and quality measurement.

Slower growth in the North American industrial markets resulted in slower growth or revenue declines for the majority of the businesses for both the three-month and nine-month periods of 1998. Despite the decline in revenues, operating income and margins increased for both periods due to administrative and manufacturing cost reductions. Acquisitions also contributed to the higher operating income for both periods. Internationally, acquisitions added significantly to the 1998 revenue growth, with a contribution of 16% for the third quarter and 20% for the year-to-date period. Unfavorable foreign currency translation decreased revenues by 8% in the three-month period and 9% in the year-to-date period. For the year-to-date period, revenues and operating income also increased due to higher sales in the stretch film equipment operations. For both periods, operating income and margins increased in the base operation due to cost improvements, but the lower margins of acquired businesses almost fully offset the margin increase. LEASING AND INVESTMENTS SEGMENT This segment makes opportunistic investments that optimally utilize the Company's cash flow. These investments primarily include mortgage-related investments, leveraged and direct financing leases of equipment, investments in properties and property developments, and affordable housing investments. (Dollars in Thousands) Three months ended Nine months ended September 30 September 30 ------------------ ------------------ 1998 1997 1998 1997 -------- ------- -------- ------- Operating revenues $36,159 $31,534 $101,885 $86,817 ======= ======= ======== ======= Operating income $17,162 $ 9,173 $ 43,530 $25,379 ======= ======= ======== ======= For the third quarter and year-to-date periods, revenues and operating income increased primarily due to the commercial mortgage transaction entered into at year-end 1997 and increased property development activity. In addition, operating income increased for both periods due to higher income related to commercial mortgages as a result of better market conditions. OPERATING REVENUES The reconciliation of segment operating revenues to total company operating revenues is as follows: Three months ended Nine months ended September 30 September 30 --------------------- --------------------- 1998 1997 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Engineered components $ 640,405 $ 575,924 $1,882,240 $1,737,211 Industrial systems and consumables 776,373 781,277 2,376,022 2,258,969 Leasing and investments 36,159 31,534 101,885 86,817 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total segment operating revenues 1,452,937 1,388,735 4,360,147 4,082,997 Intersegment revenues (75,725) (73,347) (221,483) (211,467) ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Total company operating revenues $1,377,212 $1,315,388 $4,138,664 $3,871,530 ========== ========== ========== ========== OPERATING EXPENSES Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased to 64.6% in the first nine months of 1998 versus 65.1% in the first nine months of 1997, due to increased sales volume coupled with lower manufacturing costs. Selling, administrative, and research and development expenses decreased to 15.6% of revenues in the first nine months of 1998 versus 16.6% in the first nine months of 1997, primarily due to expense reductions as a result of a Company-wide objective to reduce administrative costs. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense decreased to $8.9 million in the first nine months of 1998 from $15.9 million in the first nine months of 1997, primarily due to decreased commercial paper borrowings and higher interest expense in 1997 due to debt related from acquisitions. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) Other expense was $4.4 million for the first nine months of 1998 versus other income of $10.1 million in 1997, primarily due to losses on the sale of operations in 1998 versus gains on the sale of operations in 1997 and lower interest income in 1998 versus 1997. NET INCOME Net income of $488.5 million ($1.94 per diluted share) in the first nine months of 1998 was 14.5% higher than 1997 nine-month net income of $426.8 million ($1.70 per diluted share). FOREIGN CURRENCY The strengthening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies in 1998 decreased operating revenues for the first nine months of 1998 by approximately $106 million and reduced earnings by approximately 4 cents per diluted share. FINANCIAL POSITION Net working capital at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 is summarized as follows: (Dollars in Thousands) Sept. 30, Dec. 31, Increase/ 1998 1997 (Decrease) ---------- ---------- ---------- Current Assets: Cash and equivalents $ 108,138 $ 185,856 $(77,718) Trade receivables 997,328 902,022 95,306 Inventories 603,114 522,996 80,118 Other 239,426 247,768 (8,342) ---------- ---------- -------- 1,948,006 1,858,642 89,364 ---------- ---------- -------- Current Liabilities: Short-term debt 401,911 298,278 103,633 Accounts payable and accrued expenses 779,824 727,469 52,355 Other 107,638 132,133 (24,495) ---------- ---------- -------- 1,289,373 1,157,880 131,493 ---------- ---------- -------- Net Working Capital $ 658,633 $ 700,762 $(42,129) ========== ========= ======== Current Ratio 1.51 1.61 ========== ========= The increase in trade receivables for the first nine months of 1998 was due to 1998 acquisitions and higher operating revenues in the third quarter of 1998 versus the fourth quarter of 1997, partially offset by the effect of foreign currency translation. The increase in inventories is due to acquisitions, slightly offset by an overall reduction in inventory levels in the base businesses and the effect of foreign currency translation. The increase in short-term debt is due to increased borrowings in 1998 to fund acquisitions. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses is due to the acquisitions in 1998, partially offset by an overall reduction in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the base businesses. YEAR 2000 ISSUE The Company utilizes software and related technologies throughout its businesses that will be affected by the date change in the year 2000. To determine the extent of the year 2000 compliance issues related to its computer systems, including equipment with embedded chip technology, the Company began an extensive internal study at all of its business units in 1997. Testing of existing systems and remediation activities have begun and are expected to be completed for critical systems by the end of the first quarter of 1999. It is anticipated that the remaining non-critical year 2000 issues will be resolved by the end of 1999. The Company also has initiated formal communications with its significant suppliers, customers and other relevant third parties to determine the extent and steps that they are taking to be year 2000 compliant. To date, no significant issues have been identified. However, there is a risk that the systems of these other companies could have a negative impact on the Company's operations if they are not year 2000 compliant. To mitigate this risk, the Company is monitoring the status of these companies' year 2000 compliance programs. To the extent that critical suppliers are not compliant, the Company may be able to obtain alternative sources of raw materials or services. The Company believes that the overall risk of year 2000 issues having a material adverse effect on the Company's operations is mitigated by the Company's decentralized organization, in which there are approximately 365 operating units and very few individual computer systems which affect a significant number of operating units. In addition, the Company's products are primarily components or consumable goods that do not have embedded chip technology. Approximately 20% of the Company's products are capital equipment goods that could have embedded chip issues. The Company is reviewing this equipment as part of its internal year 2000 compliance study. To date, because this equipment is generally not highly automated, no significant year 2000 issues related to the Company's equipment products have been identified. In the event that critical systems or third parties are not year 2000 compliant by the end of the first quarter of 1999, the Company will begin to develop contingency plans for the affected operations. Based on preliminary estimates, the total cost of the Company's year 2000 compliance program is approximately $30 million for 1997 through 1999. Of this amount, approximately 75% relates to capital expenditures and 25% to expensed costs. Approximately half of the total cost has been incurred through the third quarter of 1998. Estimates of year 2000 related costs are based upon numerous assumptions and there is no certainty that actual costs could not be significantly different from the estimates.
