BUSINESS Reinhold Engineered Plastics, the forerunner to today's Reinhold Industries, Inc., was founded in 1928. The purpose of the business was the molding of components from Bakelite, the first commercially available polymer molding material. In the 1940's, Reinhold was a pioneer in making some of the earliest fiberglass plastic components for the aircraft industry such as radomes and antenna covers. In the early 1950's, with the advent of the missile industry, Reinhold moved into the newly created field of ablative composites. Ablative composites are fiber reinforced polymer structures which absorb, as they decay, the destructive thermal energy generated by burning rocket propellants or hypersonic re-entry. This field became Reinhold's core business for decades to come. In the 1970's, the molding of structures from fiberglass polyester Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) was a new and growing industry in the Eastern U.S. Reinhold was convinced that the potential of the SMC material was broad enough that markets in the West could be found and developed. These markets included swimming pool filter tanks and in-ground lighting housings. From the 1950's through the early 1980's, Reinhold went through a number of ownership and name changes. In June 1984, Reinhold was sold to Keene Corporation, an operating division of Bairnco Corporation. In 1990, following Bairnco's spin-off of its Keene Corporation subsidiary to Bairnco's shareholders, Reinhold became an incorporated (Delaware) entity and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Keene Corporation. On December 3, 1993, Keene Corporation ("Keene") filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United State Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court"), Case No. 93-B-46090 (SMB). Keene's Chapter 11 filing came as a direct result of tens of thousands of asbestos-related lawsuits which named Keene as a party. Reinhold did not file any petitions for relief under the bankruptcy code and continued to operate in the normal course of business. Keene's asbestos-related liabilities stem entirely from its 1968 purchase of Baldwin-Ehret-Hill, Inc. ("BEH"), a manufacturer of acoustical ceilings, ventilation systems, and thermal insulation products. Over the past 20 years, Keene spent over $530 million (approximately 75% of which has been in the form of insurance proceeds) in connection with Asbestos-Related Claims asserted against Keene, all stemming from Keene's ownership, for a period of approximately five years, of BEH. 4 By the end of 1992, Keene had exhausted substantially all of its insurance coverage for Asbestos-Related Personal Injury Claims and by 1993, Keene had exhausted substantially all of its insurance related to Asbestos In Building Claims. Therefore, Keene had to bear directly the costs of all Claims. In May 1993, Keene filed a limited fund, mandatory settlement action ("Limited Fund Action"). This Limited Fund Action sought a declaration that Keene had only limited funds available to resolve the numerous Asbestos-Related Claims against it, including Asbestos-Related Claims that might be filed in the future. In November 1993, Keene reached an agreement in principle with the lawyers representing each subclass with respect to the allocation of Keene's remaining assets. However, on December 1, 1993, the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued a decision dismissing the Limited Fund Action on the grounds of lack of subject matter jurisdiction. In light of this decision, on December 3, 1993, Keene filed its voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11. On March 28, 1995, Keene, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors' and the Legal Representative for Future Claimants entered into a stipulation to file a consensual plan of reorganization that would resolve Keene's Chapter 11 Case. On March 11, 1996, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Second Amended Disclosure Statement regarding Keene's Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization for solicitation. On June 12, 1996, the Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. District Court held a confirmation hearing on Keene's Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization, as modified (the "Plan"). The Plan was confirmed by the U.S. District Court by order entered on June 14, 1996. On July 31, 1996, Keene's Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization, as modified, became effective (the "Effective Date"). On the Effective Date, Keene's wholly-owned subsidiary, Reinhold Industries, Inc. ("Reinhold") was merged into and with Keene, with Keene becoming the surviving entity. Pursuant to the merger, all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Reinhold was canceled. Keene, as the surviving corporation of the merger, was renamed Reinhold. On the Effective Date, Reinhold issued 1,998,956 shares of Common Stock, of which 1,020,000 shares of Class B Common Stock were issued to the Trustees of a Creditors' Trust (the "Creditors' Trust") set up to administer Keene's asbestos claims. The remaining 978,956 shares, identified as Class A Common Stock, were issued to Keene's former shareholders as of record date, June 30, 1996. All of Keene's previously outstanding Common Stock was canceled. 5 Today, Reinhold Industries, Inc. is a manufacturer of advanced custom composite components, sheet molding compounds and rubber rollers for a variety of applications in the United States and Europe. Reinhold derives revenues from the defense, aerospace, printing and other commercial industries. Reinhold is currently organized in five operating segments as follows: Aerospace - The Aerospace business unit manufactures structural and ablative composite components mainly for subcontractors of the U.S. defense industry. These components include rocket nozzles, exit cones, re-entry heatshields, radomes, and airframe and missile frames. In March 1992, to strengthen its market position in defense and aerospace markets, Reinhold acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Reynolds & Taylor, Inc. ("R & T"), a California corporation and manufacturer of structural composite components serving, primarily, the defense and aerospace markets. R & T's operations were consolidated into Reinhold's existing facility. On April 20, 2001, Reinhold, purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Edler Industries, Inc. ("Edler"). Edler was a manufacturer of structural and ablative composite components mainly for subcontractors of the U.S. defense industry. The operation was renamed the "Thermal Insulation" division of Reinhold. Effective January 1, 2003, the Thermal Insulation operating segment was consolidated with the Areospace operating segment. During 2003, Aerospace's sales increased by 16% due mainly to increased shipments of components related to the Minuteman III Propulsion Replacement Program. Because a substantial portion of Reinhold's business has been as a supplier to government contractors, Reinhold has developed a limited number of customers with which it does significant amounts of business. Sales to Alliant Techsystems, Inc. ("ATK") constituted approximately 87% of this business unit's total sales in 2003. Reinhold's future prospects will depend on the continued business of such customers and on Reinhold's continued status as a qualified supplier to such customers. Additionally, as a supplier to government contractors, nearly all of Aerospace's backlog is subject to termination. Cancellation of the Minuteman III Propulsion Replacement Program would have a significant impact on the profitability of this business unit. Sales of components related to the Minuteman III Propulsion Replacement Program for 2003, 2002 and 2001 totaled approximately $14.5 million, $12.1 million and $4.8 million, respectively. CompositAir - In May 1994, Reinhold acquired CompositAir from SP Systems, Inc. CompositAir is a niche manufacturer of composite commercial aircraft seatbacks and other commercial products. CompositAir has been in continuous production of composite seatback frames since 1980. Composites of epoxy, phenolic, or other resin systems, reinforced with aramid or other glass fibers, are laminated into the complex shapes required by today's feature-packed commercial aircraft seats. The weight of the frames is 30% to 40% less than equivalent aluminum frames. CompositAir operates in both Oxnard, California and Santa Fe Springs, California. 6 Over 80% of CompositAir's 2003 sales were from one customer. Reinhold's future prospects will depend on the continued business of that customer and on Reinhold's continued status as a qualified supplier to that customer. In 2003, sales decreased by 20% compared to 2002 due to economic problems in the commercial airline industry. Commercial - The Commercial business unit manufactures compression molded "SMC" (Sheet Molding Compound) products for lighting, water filtration and other various commercial and aerospace applications. SMC formulations include thermosetting polymer matrix resins, glass fibers and other additives which provide strength, stiffness, and protection from corrosion, chemical environments and ultraviolet degradation. Sales in 2003 increased 21% from 2002 due to higher shipments of both in-ground lighting housings and pool filter tanks. NP Aerospace - On April 24, 1998, NP Aerospace Limited ("NP Aerospace"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reinhold, purchased from Courtaulds Aerospace Limited ("CAL"), a U.K. Corporation, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Courtaulds plc, a U.K. Corporation, certain assets (consisting of Accounts Receivable, Inventory, Machinery and Equipment, Land and Intellectual Property and Patents) and assumed certain liabilities of the Ballistic and Performance Composites Division of CAL. NP Aerospace operates in Coventry, England. NP Aerospace manufactures a wide variety of composite products including compression molded canopies for street lights, commercial aircraft seatback frames, aramid composite combat helmets, protective personal body armor, carbon composite radiography support couches and light-armored composite vehicle structures. NP Aerospace operates in niche marketplaces for the sale of commercial aircraft seatbacks, helmets and light armored vehicles. Due to the limited marketplaces for these products, sales from year-to-year are very unpredictable. Due to the high selling price of armored vehicles, large annual swings in revenue are possible. Sales in 2003 increased 45% from 2002 due to higher shipments of body armor and military helmets. Additional information on NP Aerospace is set forth in "Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations " on pages 20 - 23 of Reinhold's 2003 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is incorporated herein by reference. Bingham - On March 9, 2000, Samuel Bingham Enterprises, Inc., a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Reinhold Industries, Inc., purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Samuel Bingham Company. Samuel Bingham Company ("Bingham") is a manufacturer and supplier of graphic arts and industrial rollers for a variety of applications. Samuel Bingham was born in 1789 and began manufacturing rollers for the printing industry in 1848. The Company 7 has been in continuous existence since that date. In addition to serving the graphic arts marketplace, the Company also serves other industries such as steel mills, paper mills, converters, metal coaters, textile mills and plastic processors. Products are manufactured from various elastomers including SBR, silicones, EPDM's, Hypalons, Buna N, Neoprenes, natural rubber, vinyl-nitriles, fluoroelastomers, polyether urethanes and polyester urethanes. Bingham manufactures at various locations throughout the United States and sells through a direct sales force to approximately 3,000 customers. Due to the existence of many other manufacturers in this marketplace, the Company is forced to be highly competitive. In 2001, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $5.4 million to write-down long-lived assets associated with the Bingham operating segment. Included in the $5.4 million charge was approximately $1.3 million write-down of fixed assets related to the seven manufacturing and administrative locations of Bingham that were closed or were in the process of being closed. The fixed assets were written down to their estimated fair value which was determined based on the proceeds received and estimated to be received from the sales of the respective facilities. The Company then determined that the estimated future undiscounted operating cash flows of the remaining Bingham operations were less than the carrying amount of Bingham's remaining long-lived assets. Based on its evaluation, the Company determined Bingham's long-lived assets, with a carrying value of $10.7 million, were impaired and wrote them down by approximately $4.0 million to their estimated fair value. This write-down was charged against goodwill. Fair value was based on estimated discounted future operating cash flows of the Bingham operations. Additional information on operating segments is set forth in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 47 through 49 and "Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations " on pages 20 through 23 of Reinhold's 2003 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is incorporated herein by reference. Significant Customers Information about significant customers is set forth in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements on page 51 of Reinhold's 2003 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is incorporated herein by reference. Distribution Products are marketed by company sales personnel and sales representatives in the United States and Europe. 8 Competition Reinhold competes with many companies in the sale of ablative and structural composite products. The markets served by Reinhold are specialized and competitive. Several of its competitors have greater financial, technical and operating resources than Reinhold. Although Reinhold has competed successfully in the critical areas of price, product performance and engineering support services, there is no assurance that Reinhold will be able to continue to manufacture and sell its products profitably in competitive markets. Because a substantial portion of Reinhold's business has been as a supplier to government contractors, Reinhold has developed a limited number of customers with which it does significant amounts of business. Reinhold's future prospects will depend on the continued business of such customers and on Reinhold's continued status as a qualified supplier to such customers. Reinhold's success also depends on developing additional commercial composite products to replace heavier and shape restrictive metals-based products. Raw Materials and Purchased Components The principal raw materials for composite fabrication include pre-impregnated fiber cloth (made of carbon, graphite, aramid or fiberglass fibers which have been heat-treated), molding compounds, resins (phenolic and epoxy), hardware, adhesives and solvents. Occasionally, certain raw materials and parts are supplied by customers for incorporation into the finished product. Reinhold's principal suppliers of raw materials are Cytec Fiberite, Inc. and Newport Adhesives and Composites, Inc. No significant supply problems have been encountered in recent years. Reinhold uses PAN (polyacrylonitrile) and rayon in the manufacture of composites. However, the supply of rayon used to make carbon fiber cloth typically used in ablative composites is highly dependent upon the qualification of the rayon supplier by the United States Department of Defense. North American Rayon has ceased production of the rayon used in Reinhold's ablative products. This could have an effect on the rayon supply in the coming years. Also, a European company has become the world's sole supplier of graphite and carbon, which is used in Reinhold's ablative applications. At this time, Reinhold cannot determine if there will be any significant impact on price or supply. Environmental Matters Reinhold's manufacturing facilities are subject to regulation by federal, state and local environmental agencies. Management believes all facilities meet or exceed all 9 applicable environmental requirements in all material respects and believes that continued compliance will not materially affect capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. Refer to Item 3 for additional environmental legal proceedings. Patents and Trademarks Reinhold, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Samuel Bingham Enterprises, Inc., owns one patent registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the "Method of Making Roll for Use in Printing" (U.S. Patent No. 4,492,012). The patent expired in January 2002. Samuel Bingham Enterprises, Inc. holds nine registered trademarks with expiration dates ranging from February 2004 through August 2009. Research and Development Research and development expenditures were approximately $425,000, $314,000, and $348,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Employees At December 31, 2003, Reinhold had 358 full-time employees and 25 part-time employees. Of these employees, 286 (261 full-time and 25 part-time) were employed in manufacturing and 97 (all full-time) in administration, product development and sales. Approximately 35% of the personnel are based at Reinhold's Santa Fe Springs, California facility, approximately 24% are based at NP Aerospace located in Coventry, England and approximately 41% are based at the various manufacturing and administration facilities of Samuel Bingham. Approximately 43 of the employees in Coventry, England are represented by a labor union. Certain Samuel Bingham employees, approximately 53, located in San Leandro, California, Searcy, Arkansas and Blacklick, Pennsylvania are also represented by a labor union. Reinhold believes its workforce to be relatively stable and considers its employee relations to be excellent. 10 Item 2. PROPERTIES The following chart lists the principal locations and size of Reinhold's facilities and indicates whether the property is owned or leased and, if leased, the lease expiration.

Construction of a new building and additional improvements at the Santa Fe Springs location were substantially completed in 2001. Reinhold believes its facilities are utilized consistent with economic conditions and the requirements of its operations. Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company has been informed that it may be a potentially responsible party ("PRP") under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA"), with respect to certain environmental liabilities arising at the Valley Forge National Historical Park Site ("Valley Forge Site") located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania and at a site formerly known as the Casmalia Resources Hazardous Waste Management Facility, located in Santa Barbara County, California ("Casmalia Site"). CERCLA imposes liability for the costs of responding to a release or threatened release of "hazardous substances" into the environment. CERCLA liability is imposed without regard to fault. PRPs under CERCLA include current owners and operators of the site, owners and operators at the time of disposal, as well as persons who arranged for disposal or treatment of hazardous substances sent to the site, or persons who accepted hazardous substances for transport to the site. 11 Because PRPs' CERCLA liability to the government is joint and several, a PRP may be required to pay more than its proportional share of such costs. Liability among PRPs, however, is subject to equitable allocation through contribution actions. On June 16, 2000 the U.S. Department of Justice notified the Company that it may be a PRP with respect to the Valley Forge Site and demanded payment for past costs incurred by the United States in connection with the site, which the Department of Justice estimated at $1,753,726 incurred by the National Park Service ("NPS") as of May 31, 2000 and $616,878 incurred by the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") as of November 30, 1999. Payment of these past costs would not release the Company from liability for future response costs. Management believes that in or about 1977, the Company's predecessor, Keene Corporation ("Keene"), sold to the U.S. Department of Interior certain real property and improvements now located within the Valley Forge Site. Prior to the sale, Keene operated a manufacturing facility on the real property and may have used friable asbestos, the substance which gives rise to the claim at the Valley Forge Site. On December 30, 2002, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York approved and entered a Consent Decree agreed upon by the United States and the Company settling the claims asserted by the National Park Service against the Company. The United States and the Company stipulated that the EPA will not seek reimbursement of its response costs with respect to the Valley Forge Site and that the Company's claim for a declaratory judgment with respect to those costs may be dismissed with prejudice. Under the terms of the Consent Decree, the Company was obligated to pay $500,000 to the Department of the Interior. In return, the Company has received from the United States a covenant not to sue, subject to certain limited exceptions, for claims under CERCLA Sections 106, 107 and 113 and RCRA Section 7003 relating to the Site. The payment to the Department of the Interior was made on January 23, 2003. Pursuant to the Consent Decree and CERCLA Section 113(f)(2), the Company's settlement with the United States bars any other party from asserting claims for contribution for any response costs incurred with respect to the Valley Forge Site by the United States, any State or other governmental entity, or any other party. With respect to the Casmalia Site, on August 11, 2000, the EPA notified the Company that it is a PRP by virtue of waste materials deposited at the site. The EPA has designated the Company as a "de minimis" waste generator at this site, based on the amount of waste at the Casmalia Site attributed to the Company. The Company is not currently a party to any litigation concerning the Casmalia Site, and based on currently available data, the Company believes that the Casmalia Site is not likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 12 The Company is involved in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Item 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS The Company did not submit any matters to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 2003. 13 PART II Item 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS a. Data regarding the market price of Reinhold's common stock is included in the "Selected Financial Data" on page 1 and under Stockholder Information on page 54 of Reinhold's 2003 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is incorporated herein by reference. Reinhold's common stock is traded on the NASDAQ National Market under the symbol RNHDA. The stock price quotations incorporated herein reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission, and may not represent actual transactions. b. The approximate number of common equity security holders is as follows: Approximate Number of Holders of Record Title of Class as of March 2, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share 1,384 c. A 10% stock dividend was declared on May 8, 2001 payable to shareholders of record as of July 13, 2001. The dividend was payable on or about July 31, 2001. Fractional shares were paid in cash. Fractional share cash payments totaled $8,278.05. A 10% stock dividend was declared on May 1, 2002 payable to shareholders of record as of May 31, 2002. The dividend was paid on June 21, 2002. Fractional shares were paid in cash. Fractional share cash payments totaled $5,913.60. A 10% stock dividend was declared on April 30, 2003 payable to shareholders of record as of May 16, 2003. The dividend was paid on May 30, 2003. Fractional shares were paid in cash. Fractional share cash payments totaled $9,327.96. Item 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA Reference is made to the "Selected Financial Data" on page 1 of Reinhold's 2003 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is incorporated herein by reference. 14 Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Reference is made to the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" on page 19 of Reinhold's 2003 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is incorporated herein by reference. Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company has two main areas of market risk: interest rates on outstanding debt and fluctuations in the value of the British Pound Sterling to the United States Dollar. All of the Company's debt at December 31, 2002 was at variable interest rates based on LIBOR plus 2.50%. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would have had a $0.04 million impact on interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2002. The functional currency of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, NP Aerospace, is the British Pound Sterling (the "Pound"). The exchange rate of the Pound to the Dollar from April 28, 1998 to December 31, 2003 has fluctuated from 1.79 to 1.39, a range of 22%.
