Leasing & Investments: Businesses in this segment make investments in mortgage-related assets, leveraged and direct financing leases of telecommunications, aircraft and other equipment, properties and property developments, affordable housing and a venture capital fund. As a result of the Companys strong cash flow, the Company has historically had excess funds to make opportunistic investments that meet the Companys desired financial returns. In connection with some of these investment transactions, the Company may be contractually required to make future cash payments related to affordable housing capital contributions, venture fund capital contributions or the redemption of preferred stock of subsidiaries. See the Companys Annual Report to Stockholders for further information regarding these cash contractual obligations as of December 31, 2002. The Companys significant investments are described below:
1) | Mortgage investments In 1995, 1996 and 1997, the Company invested a total of $300 million in three separate mortgage investments. In these essentially similar transactions, the Company entered into various agreements with a AAA-rated third party related to commercial mortgage loans and real estate whereby the Company paid cash of $240 million ($80 million for each transaction), issued preferred stock of subsidiaries of $60 million ($20 million for each transaction), issued preferred stock of subsidiaries of $60 million ($20 million for each transaction) and issued nonrecourse notes payable of $740 million. These agreements, each covering a ten-year period, are summarized as follows: |
| The third party transferred to the Company legal title in pools of sub-performing commercial mortgage loans and real estate (collectively, the mortgage assets). To balance the economics of the transactions, a Treasury security was added to the pool of assets in the second transaction and an annuity contract was added to the pool of mortgage assets in the third transaction. | |
| The Company entered into swap agreements with the third party whereby: |
| The third party (the swap counter party) makes the contractual principal and interest payments on the Companys nonrecourse notes payable. | |
| The swap counter party receives all of the annual operating cash flows from the pools of mortgage assets except for $26 million per year ($9 million for the first two transactions and $8 million for the third transaction), which the Company keeps. | |
| By the tenth year of each transaction, the swap counter party (who is also the asset servicer) is required to sell all of the mortgage assets. The Company receives the first $127.2 million of the disposition proceeds, which is equal to the redemption value (equal to the principal plus accrued dividends) of the $60 million preferred stock of subsidiaries. The swap counter party receives the next $317.6 million of the disposition proceeds, which will be used to pay the principal and interest on the nonrecourse notes payable due in year 10. | |
| The Company entered into Servicing, Administration and Management agreements (the servicing agreements) with the swap counter party whereby the swap counter party will perform all aspects of the servicing, management and marketing of the pools of mortgage |
3
assets. In addition, under the terms of the servicing agreements, the swap counter party will collect all cash flows from the assets and make the required swap payments to the Company and the holder of the nonrecourse note payable. In exchange for these services, the swap counter party is paid an annual servicing fee equal to a percentage of the mortgage assets managed and a disposition fee equal to a portion of the disposition proceeds from the sale of the mortgage assets at the end of ten years. | ||
| To significantly reduce the risk that the Company will not receive its annual cash flow of $26 million per year, the swap counter party transferred to the Company legal title to membership interests in three limited liability corporations which own separate pools of performing mortgage loans and real estate. In the event that the Companys pools of mortgage assets do not generate cash flows of at least $26 million per year, the Company has a right to receive the shortfall from the pools of assets owned by the limited liability corporations. This collateral right is the Companys only interest in the limited liability corporations. | |
| In 2000, the servicing agreements were amended such that the disposition proceeds from the sales of the original mortgage assets were allowed to be reinvested in replacement mortgage assets. As part of the amendment, the swap counter party guaranteed that the disposition proceeds of the replacement mortgage assets would be no less than the disposition proceeds from the sales of the original mortgage assets. |
See the Leasing & Investments section of the Managements Discussion & Analysis in the Companys 2002 Annual Report to Stockholders for further discussion of the estimated future cash flows and the risks related to these mortgage investments.
The income and expense related to the assets and liabilities in these transactions are recorded in the operating income of the Leasing & Investments segment based on the appropriate accounting method for each component. Primarily due to the operation of the swap and related agreements, the operating income recorded for these investments may differ significantly from the annual cash received by the Company of $26 million. See the Investments note in the Companys 2002 Annual Report to Stockholders for a detailed explanation of the accounting methods used for the various assets in these transactions.
2) | Leases of equipment The Company has entered into numerous leases of equipment used in the telecommunications and transportation industries. These leases are accounted for as leveraged or direct financing leases. See the Investments note in the Companys Annual Report to Stockholders for further discussion of these leases. | |
3) | Affordable housing limited partnerships The Company has entered into several affordable housing limited partnerships primarily to receive tax benefits in the form of tax credits and tax deductions from operating losses. See the Investments note in the Companys Annual Report to Stockholders for further discussion of these investments. |
A key element of the Companys business strategy is its continuous 80/20 simplification process. The basic concept of this 80/20 process is to focus on whats most important (the 20% of the items which account for 80% of the value) and spend less time and resources on the less important (the 80% of the items which account for 20% of the value). The Companys operations use this 80/20 process to simplify and focus on the keys parts of their business, and reduce complexity that may disguise what is truly important. Each of the Companys 600 operations utilize the 80/20 process in all aspects of their business. Common applications of the 80/20 process include:
| Simplifying manufactured product lines by reducing the number of products offered by combining the features of similar products, outsourcing products or eliminating products. |
4
| Simplifying the customer base by focusing on the 80/20 customers and finding different ways to serve the 20/80 customers. | |
| Simplifying the supplier base by partnering with key 80/20 suppliers and reducing the number of 20/80 suppliers. | |
| Designing business processes and systems around the key 80/20 activities. |
The result of the application of this 80/20 simplification process is that the Companys operating and financial performance is improved. These 80/20 efforts often result in restructuring projects that reduce costs and improve margins.
In November 1999, a wholly owned subsidiary of ITW merged with Premark International, Inc. (Premark), a commercial manufacturer of food equipment and laminate products. Shareholders of Premark received .8081 shares of ITW common stock in exchange for each share of Premark common stock outstanding. A total of 49,781,665 of ITW common stock shares were issued to the former Premark shareholders in connection with the merger. The merger was accounted for under the pooling-of-interests accounting method. Accordingly, ITWs historical financial statements for periods prior to the merger have been restated to include the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Premark as though the companies had been combined during such periods.
In December 2001, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the divestiture of the Consumer Products segment. These businesses were acquired by ITW in 1999 as part of the Premark merger. Subsequent to the Premark merger, the Company determined that the consumer characteristics of the businesses in the Consumer Products segment were not a good long-term fit with the Companys other industrial-focused businesses. Businesses in this segment are located primarily in North America and manufacture household products that are used by consumers, including Precor specialty exercise equipment, West Bend small appliances and premium cookware, and Florida Tile ceramic tile. On October 31, 2002 the sales of Precor and West Bend were completed, resulting in net cash proceeds of $207.9 million. The Company is actively marketing and intends to dispose of Florida Tile through a sale transaction in 2003. The Companys estimated net gain on disposal of the segment is as follows:

The estimated after tax net gain of $2.4 million on the segment has been deferred at December 31, 2002 pending the completion of the sale of Florida Tile in 2003.
During the five-year period ending December 31, 2002, the Company acquired and disposed of numerous other operations which did not materially impact consolidated results.

The information set forth below is applicable to all industry segments of the Company unless otherwise noted:
Competition
The Companys global competitive environment is complex because of the wide diversity of products the Company manufactures and the many markets it serves. Depending on the product or market, the Company may compete with a few other companies or with many others.
6
The Company is a leading producer of plastic and metal components and fasteners; laminate products; polymers and fluid products; welding products; packaging machinery and related consumables; food service equipment; and industrial finishing equipment.
Raw Materials
The Company uses raw materials of various types, primarily metals, plastics and paper that are available from numerous commercial sources. The availability of materials and energy has not resulted in any significant business interruptions or other major problems, nor are any such problems anticipated.
Research and Development
The Companys growth has resulted from developing new and improved products, broadening the application of established products, continuing efforts to improve and develop new methods, processes and equipment, and from acquisitions. Many new products are designed to reduce customers costs by eliminating steps in their manufacturing processes, reducing the number of parts in an assembly, or by improving the quality of customers assembled products. Typically, the development of such products is accomplished by working closely with customers on specific applications. Identifiable research and development costs are set forth in the Companys 2002 Annual Report to Stockholders.
The Company owns approximately 2,400 unexpired United States patents covering articles, methods and machines. Many counterparts of these patents have also been obtained in various foreign countries. In addition, the Company has approximately 900 applications for patents pending in the United States Patent Office, but there is no assurance that any patent will be issued. The Company maintains an active patent department for the administration of patents and processing of patent applications.
The Company believes that many of its patents are valuable and important. Nevertheless, the Company credits its leadership in the markets it serves to engineering capability; manufacturing techniques, skills and efficiency; marketing and sales promotion; and service and delivery of quality products to its customers. The expiration of any one of the Companys patents would not have a material effect on the Companys results of operations or financial position.
Trademarks
Many of the Companys products are sold under various owned or licensed trademarks, which are important to the Company. Among the most significant are: ITW, Apex, Bernard, Buildex, Chemtronics, Corex, Deltar, Devcon, DeVilbiss, Dymon, Dynatec, Fastex, Foster, Hi-Cone, Hobart, Keps, LPS, Magna, Magnaflux, Miller, Mima, Minigrip, Paktron, Paslode, Ramset, Ransburg, Red Head, Rocol, Shakeproof, Signode, Stero, Teks, Tempil, Tenax, Texwipe, Traulsen, Tri-Mark, Vulcan, Wilsonart and Zip-Pak.
Environmental
The Company believes that its plants and equipment are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental regulations. Additional measures to maintain compliance are not expected to materially affect the Companys capital expenditures, competitive position, financial position or results of operations.
Various legislative and administrative regulations concerning environmental issues have become effective or are under consideration in many parts of the world relating to manufacturing processes, and the sale or use of certain products. To date, such developments have not had a substantial adverse impact on the Companys sales or earnings. The Company has made considerable efforts to develop and sell environmentally compatible products resulting in new and expanding marketing opportunities.
Employees
The Company employed approximately 48,700 persons as of December 31, 2002 and considers its employee relations to be excellent.
7
International
The Companys international operations include subsidiaries, joint ventures and licensees in 43 countries on six continents. These operations serve such markets as construction, automotive, food retail and service, general industrial, and others on a worldwide basis. The Companys international operations contributed approximately 37% of operating revenues in 2002 and in 2001.
Refer to the Companys 2002 Annual Report to Stockholders for additional information on international activities. International operations are subject to certain risks inherent in conducting business in foreign countries, including price controls, exchange controls, limitations on participation in local enterprises, nationalization, expropriation and other governmental action, and changes in currency exchange rates.
