Domestic revenues, operating income and margins for the three-month period
increased largely due to increased volume in residential construction markets
along with continued gains in non-residential construction markets. Increased
penetration in a soft domestic automotive market also contributed to the
improved results. Although Miller slightly contributed to the increase in
revenues, it moderated operating income and margin growth due to a seasonal
slowdown in the welding markets. For the nine-month period, the improved
performance in revenues was led by strong performances in non-residential
construction and welding markets followed by modest gains in automotive
businesses. Operating income and margins increased due to the increased volume
in construction markets and continued improvement in the automotive businesses.

The improved results internationally for the three-month period were due to
continued penetration gains in the European automotive markets. Growth was
moderated during this period due to soft Australian and German construction
markets. For the nine-month period, strong performances in European automotive
markets largely contributed to the improved results followed by the European
construction businesses.
INDUSTRIAL SYSTEMS AND CONSUMABLES SEGMENT

Businesses in this segment manufacture longer lead-time systems and related
consumables for consumer and industrial packaging, industrial spray coating
equipment and systems, and quality assurance application equipment and systems.
The largest markets served by this segment are general industrial, food and
beverage, and industrial capital goods.

Continued demand for new products in industrial packaging and increased
penetration in domestic beverage markets for the consumer packaging businesses
led to the increase in domestic revenues and operating income for the three-
month and nine-month periods. For the same
time period, margins increased due to new product introductions and continuous
cost reductions in industrial packaging.

International revenues and operating income for the three-month and nine-month
periods increased due to the consumer and industrial packaging businesses.
During the three-month period, new product introductions, acquisitions and
continued cost reductions in industrial packaging businesses led in the margin
increase along with consumer packaging, which benefitted from increased volume
in the European beverage markets. Margins increased for the nine-month period
due to new products in the industrial packaging and finishing systems
businesses.
OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating costs as a percentage of revenues decreased to 65.6% in the first
nine months of 1995 versus 66.7% in the first nine months of 1994. Selling,
administrative, and research and development expenses were 18.1% of revenues in
the first nine months of 1995 versus 18.8% in the first nine months of 1994.
These ratios were lower because of cost reductions as a result of a Company-
wide objective to reduce costs.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense increased slightly to $22.5 million in the first nine months
of 1995 from $21.1 million in the first nine months of 1994, primarily due to
increased foreign debt assumed from newly acquired companies.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Other income (expense) increased to net other income of $1.2 million for the
first nine months of 1995 from net other expense of $8.6 million in 1994.
The increase in income is primarily due to an increase in
interest income and income from investment properties, along with a gain on
sale of equipment under a leverage lease.

NET INCOME

Net income of $281.3 million ($2.40 per share) in the first nine months of 1995
was 45.7% higher than the 1994 first nine months net income of $193.0 million
($1.70 per share). Foreign currency had no material impact on earnings in the
first nine months of 1995 versus 1994.
FINANCIAL POSITION

Net working capital at September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 is summarized
as follows:

========== ==========

The increase in trade receivables in the third quarter of 1995 was primarily
due to acquisitions and stronger revenues in the third quarter of 1995 versus
the fourth quarter of 1994. Current year acquisitions combined with overall
business growth contributed to the increase in inventories from year-end 1994
to third quarter 1995. The increase in short-term debt was mainly due to
additional commercial paper borrowings to fund 1995 acquisitions. Accounts
payable and accrued expenses increased at September 30, 1995 versus year-end
1994 as a result of overall business growth and acquisitions.
