BUSINESS (a) General Development of Business. Esterline Technologies Corporation (the "Company") conducts business through 14 principal domestic and foreign subsidiaries in three business segments described in sub-item (c) below. The Company was organized in August 1967. On September 27, 1989 the Company acquired six commercial aerospace and defense companies (The "Acquired Companies") from The Dyson-Kissner-Moran Corporation and certain of its affiliates together with 1,946,748 shares of common stock of Esterline (the "Shares"). The purchase price for the combined transactions was $153 million, including expenses, plus assumption of $3.2 million in debt. $27 million of the purchase price was related to the purchase of the Shares. The Acquired Companies primarily are in the commercial aerospace and defense industry and include Armtec Defense Products Co., Hytek Finishes Co., Midcon Cables Co., Republic Electronics Co. and TA Mfg. Co., which are in the Company's Aerospace and Defense Group, and Korry Electronics Co., which is in the Instrumentation Group. For additional discussion of the September 27, 1989 acquisition, see the Company's Form 8-K dated September 27, 1989 and the amendment thereto on Form 8 dated November 22, 1989. On March 30, 1992 the Company sold substantially all of the assets of Hollis Automation Co., an Esterline subsidiary which was not significant to the Company as a whole in terms of operations or financial condition. Hollis was in the Company's Automation Group. In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company recorded a $40.6 million restructuring charge ($27.2 million net of income tax effect). It provided for the sale or shutdown of certain small operations in each of the Company's three business segments. On a pretax basis, $21.1 million of the restructuring charge related to the Aerospace and Defense Group, $8.9 million to the Instrumentation Group and $8.4 million to the Automation Group. The affected operations represented approximately 10% of the Company's fiscal 1993 sales. The charge further provides for the consolidation of plants and product lines, including employee severance, write-off of intangible assets which no longer have value and the write-down and sale of two vacant facilities. (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments. A summary of net sales to unaffiliated customers, operating earnings and identifiable assets attributable to the Company's business segments for the fiscal years ended October 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 is incorporated herein by reference to Note 12 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 28 and 29 of the Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1993. (c) Narrative Description of Business. The Company consists of 14 individual businesses whose results can vary widely based on a number of factors, including domestic and foreign economic conditions and developments affecting the specific industries and customers they serve. The products sold by most of these businesses represent capital investment by either the initial customer or the ultimate end user. Also, a significant portion of the sales and profitability of some Company businesses is derived from defense and other government contracts or the commercial aircraft industry. Changes in general economic conditions or conditions in specific industries, capital acquisition cycles, and government policies, collectively or individually, can have a significant effect on the Company's performance. Specific comments covering all of the Company's fiscal 1993 business segments and operating units are set forth below. 3 AUTOMATION GROUP This Group produces and markets automated manufacturing equipment for the printed circuit board manufacturing industry (principally computer, telecommunications and automotive equipment); and automated metal fabrication equipment for transportation, heavy equipment and other related markets. Excellon Automation produces automated equipment for fabrication of printed circuit boards for the electronics industry. Its products are primarily drilling machines, driller/routers, programmers and editors, and networking systems. Excellon's products emphasize productivity and are designed to provide a highly efficient automated production system for printed circuit board manufacturers. Excellon's latest development involves autoload systems for its equipment which integrates multiple spindle microdrilling of circuit boards with automatic board loading and unloading capabilities. Excellon products are sold worldwide to the printed circuit board manufacturing industry, including both large and small electronics equipment manufacturers as well as component manufacturers, independent circuit board fabricators and custom drilling operations. In fiscal 1993, 1992 and 1991, printed circuit board drilling equipment accounted for 16%, 12% and 12%, respectively, of the Company's consolidated net sales. Tulon produces tungsten carbide drill and router bits for use in printed circuit board drilling equipment. Tulon utilizes computerized equipment which automatically inspects drill bits and provides the product consistency customers need for higher-technology drilling. W.A. Whitney produces automated equipment for the fabrication of structural steel, sheet metal and plate components and related material-handling equipment. This equipment performs such functions as punching, cutting, shearing and tapping. W.A. Whitney historically has specialized in equipment for punching and cutting heavier plate metal, utilizing plasma-arc air torch systems and hydraulic punching. Its customers consist principally of large metal fabricators, such as truck, farm implement and construction equipment manufacturers, and a wide range of independent fabricators. W.A. Whitney has also developed machines for the lighter gauge market which includes industries such as food service equipment, medical equipment and computer manufacturers. W.A. Whitney also produces a line of specialized screw machine and turret lathe tooling attachments under the Boyar-Schultz name. These products are sold to a wide range of customers primarily for use in tool room and production operations. Equipment Sales Co. acts as a sales representative principally for a manufacturer of high-speed assembly equipment for the printed circuit board industry. At October 31, 1993, the backlog of the Automation Group (of which $600,000 is expected to be filled after fiscal 1994) was $9.2 million compared with $14.8 million one year earlier. The decrease is primarily due to low incoming order levels in recent months at Excellon Automation. 4 AEROSPACE AND DEFENSE GROUP This Group provides a broad range of measuring and sensing devices, high-performance elastomers and clamping systems, and specialized metal finishing principally for commercial aircraft and jet engine manufacturers; also combustible ammunition components and electronic warfare and radar simulation equipment for both domestic and foreign defense agencies. Armtec Defense Products manufactures molded fiber cartridge cases, mortar increments and other combustible ammunition components for the United States armed forces and domestic and foreign defense contractors. Armtec currently is the sole U.S. producer of combustible ordnance, including the 120mm combustible case used on the main armament system on the Army's M-1A1 tank and of 120mm, 81mm and 60mm combustible mortar increments for the U.S. Army. The majority of Armtec's sales are to ordnance suppliers to the U.S. Armed Forces. In fiscal 1993, 1992 and 1991, combustible ordnance components accounted for 9%, 12% and 10%, respectively, of the Company's consolidated net sales. Auxitrol, headquartered in France, manufactures aviation and industrial thermocouple-based products, liquid level measurement devices for ships and storage tanks, pneumatic accessories (including pressure gauges and regulators) and industrial alarms, as well as electrical penetration devices and alarm systems for European and other foreign nuclear power plants. This subsidiary also distributes products manufactured by others, including valves, temperature and pressure switches and flow gauges. The markets served by Auxitrol principally consist of aircraft manufacturers, shipbuilders, petroleum companies, process industries and electric utilities. During the year, Auxitrol acquired the temperature and pressure sensing product lines of a competitor increasing its market share, and added pressure sensing technology to its product line. Auxitrol has a joint venture with a Russian company to facilitate use of Auxitrol technology in retrofitting the aging nuclear plants in Eastern Europe. Exhaust gas temperature sensing equipment for a jet engine manufacturer constitute a significant portion of Auxitrol's sales. Hytek Finishes provides complete metal finishing and inspection services, including plating, anodizing, polishing, non- destructive testing and organic coatings, primarily to the commercial aircraft, aerospace and electronics markets. Hytek recently has installed an automated tin-lead plating line, employing the latest automated plating technology, to serve the semi-conductor industry. Midcon Cables manufactures electronic and electrical cable assemblies and wiring harnesses for the military, government contractors and the commercial electronics market, offering both product design services and assembly of product to customer specifications. Republic Electronics manufactures radar environmental simulators, tactical air navigation (TACAN) test equipment, identification friend or foe (IFF) interrogator test equipment, precision distance measuring equipment (PDME) test set simulators, electronic warfare simulators, and related support equipment for both U.S. and foreign commercial and military customers. TA Mfg. designs and manufactures systems installation components such as clamps, line blocks and brackets for airframe and engine manufacturers as well as military and commercial airline aftermarkets. TA's products include elastomers which are specifically formulated for various applications, including high-temperature environments. At October 31, 1993, the backlog of the Aerospace and Defense Group (of which $9.2 million is expected to be filled after fiscal 1994) was $40.8 million, compared with $58.9 million one year earlier. The decrease occurred primarily at Armtec Defense Products and Auxitrol and was due to the timing of the receipt of orders at both companies coupled with reduced levels of U.S. Army ordnance purchases. 5 INSTRUMENTATION GROUP This Group designs and manufactures a variety of sophisticated meters, switches and indicators, panels and keyboards, gauges, control components, and measurement and analysis equipment for public utilities, industrial manufacturers, and suppliers and operators of commercial and military aircraft components. Angus Electronics manufactures recording instruments together with other analytical and process monitoring instrumentation. These include analog strip chart and digital printout recorders as well as electronic and multi-channel microprocessor-based recording equipment. Customers of Angus Electronics include industrial equipment manufacturers, electric utilities, scientific laboratories, pharmaceutical manufacturers and process industries. Korry Electronics manufactures high-reliability, lighted electromechanical components such as switches and indicators, and panels and keyboards which act as man-machine interfaces in a broad variety of control and display applications. Korry's customers include original equipment manufacturers and the aftermarkets (equipment operators and spare parts distributors), primarily in the commercial aviation, general aviation, military airborne, ground-based military equipment and shipboard military equipment markets. A significant portion of Korry's sales are to suppliers of military equipment to the U.S. Government and to a commercial aircraft manufacturer. Korry established a sales office in France during the year. Scientific Columbus (formerly Jemtec Electronics) produces analog and digital meters, electrical transducers and instruments for the monitoring, controlling and billing of electrical power.

For information as to sales, operating results and assets by geographic area and export sales, reference is made to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements on page 20, and Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 28 and 29, of the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1993, which is incorporated herein by reference. EMPLOYEES The Company and its subsidiaries had approximately 2,800 employees at October 31, 1993, a decrease of approximately 300 employees from October 31, 1992. 7 COMPETITION AND PATENTS The Company's subsidiaries experience varying degrees of competition with respect to all of their products and services. Most subsidiaries are in specialized market niches with relatively few competitors. In automated drilling equipment for printed circuit board manufacturing, Excellon Automation is a leader in its field and believes it has the largest installed base in the world of automated drilling machines for the production of printed circuit boards. In molded fiber cartridge cases, mortar increments and other combustible ammunition components, Armtec currently is the sole supplier to the U.S. Army. In addition, Hytek is one of the largest metal finishers on the West Coast, and Korry Electronics, Federal Products, W.A. Whitney, and TA Mfg. are among the leaders in their respective markets. The Company's subsidiaries generally compete with many larger companies with substantially greater volume and financial resources. The Company believes the main competitive factors for the Company's products is product performance and service. Overall, the Company believes its ongoing product development and design programs, coupled with a strong customer service orientation, keep its various product groups competitive in the marketplace. The subsidiaries hold a number of patents but in general rely on technical superiority, exclusive features in their equipment and marketing and service to customers to meet competition. Patents and licenses which help maintain a significant advantage over competition include the patents covering a switch mechanism which Korry uses in its integrated panel product line, and a long-term license agreement under which Auxitrol manufactures and sells electrical penetration assemblies. SOURCES AND AVAILABILITY OF RAW MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS The Company's subsidiaries are not materially dependent for their raw materials and components upon any one source of supply except for certain components and supplies such as plasma torches, CNC controls and hydraulic components purchased by W.A. Whitney and certain other raw materials and components purchased by other subsidiaries. In such instances, ongoing efforts are conducted to develop alternative sources or designs to help avoid the possibility of any business impairment.

The Plan is designed to reward successful management employment of Esterline's resources to achieve superior performance, measured by: (1) continuous increase in Esterline earnings, and (2) increase in the long-term return on shareholders' equity. MEMBERSHIP IN PLAN Esterline officers shall be eligible for membership in the Plan after appointment and return of a signed acceptance of the appointment letter specifying the member's award level. The Plan may be modified, amended or terminated at any time; but any such modification, amendment or termination shall not, without a member's written consent, affect his/her incentive compensation accrued prior to such modification, amendment or termination of the Plan. Nothing in this Plan limits Esterline from exercising the right to terminate an employee at any time for any reason. APPOINTMENTS AND PERFORMANCE TARGETS Each appointee to the Plan shall be entitled to incentive compensation based on Esterline's combined performance on two equally weighted specific criteria adjusted for relative industry performance of Esterline's "industry peer group" (see Exhibit 1). The criteria are: A. Cumulative earnings per share for the four years ending October 31, 1996, excluding any gains or losses from the divestiture of any primary operating subsidiary. All earnings per share computations shall be adjusted for stock dividends, splits or reverse splits. The four-year earnings per share target is $6.66, but ranges from a minimum of $4.15 to a maximum of $9.37, depending on the average annual growth rate achieved by Esterline's industry peer group. (See Attachment A.) B. Average cumulative return on average common shareholders' equity for the four years ending October 31, 1996. 2 The four-year mathematical average shall be based on each year's audited beginning and ending common shareholders' equity, excluding any amounts for any preferred shares. * The minimum return on equity criteria is three percentage points less than the four-year median of the return on shareholders' equity of Esterline's industry peer group. * The maximum return on equity criteria is four percentage points more than the four-year median of the return on shareholders' equity of Esterline's industry peer group. No award will be earned for a target if the performance is less than minimum. No additional award will be earned for any performance above the maximum. Awards will be prorated for other performance levels. COMPUTATION OF FOUR-YEAR AWARDS Esterline's performance is calculated relative to each performance target individually. Achievement of each criteria at the target level earns 100% of the individual's total award--50% for each performance target. (See Attachment B for award percentages at the target, less than minimum, minimum and maximum levels for each performance target.) Awards for performance between a target and its minimum or between a target and its maximum will be prorated. BASIS FOR COMPUTATION OF PARTIAL PAYMENTS
Cumulative Four-Year Relative Earned Performance Performance Basis of Four-Year Award Level ------------------ ------------------------ Estimated based on 1/3 FY 1993 & 1994 Estimated based on FY 1993, 1994 & 1995 2/3
PAYMENT OF AWARDS Payment shall be made at three intervals in the cycle. Partial payment shall be computed based on the latest estimate of the four- year outcome and shall be paid after completion of fiscal 1994 and 1995; these payments shall be made no later than March 1, 1995 and March 1, 1996, respectively. Final payment shall be made after completion of fiscal 1997, and no later than March 1, 1997. The amount of each payment, if any, shall be the amount earned for the cumulative performance for the cycle-to-date period less 3 any amounts previously paid. Partial payments, once paid, are not refundable to Esterline Technologies. A Plan member must be an employee on October 31, 1994, 1995 or 1996 to receive payment related to that portion of the cycle. However, if an employee's participation in the Plan is terminated during any Plan year due to normal retirement, death or disability, a pro rata share of his/her award will be determined after completion of fiscal 1996, and paid no later than March 1, 1997. In the case of death, payments shall be made to his/her estate. /s/ W. P. Hurlbut - ------------------ W. P.

It is believed that the Plan will provide incentives to put forth maximum efforts to employ Esterline's assets effectively. MEMBERSHIP IN PLAN Officers and key employees of the Esterline corporate staff shall be eligible for membership in the Plan after appointment and return of a signed acceptance of the appointment letter. The Plan may be modified, amended or terminated at any time; but any such modification, amendment or termination shall not, without a member's written consent, affect his/her incentive compensation accrued prior to such modification, amendment or termination of the Plan. Nothing in this Plan limits Esterline from exercising the right to terminate an employee at any time for any reason. TERMS AND CONDITIONS 1. Individual participants payouts will vary from 10% to 60%, as stipulated in his/her appointment letter, of fiscal year-end salary. These target nomination awards will be earned if earnings per share of $1.30 are achieved. 2. Actual earnings per share will be as audited before extraordinary items for the year ending October 31, 1993. 3. Awards will be pro-rated for performance and will be interpolated on the following basis.
EPS Award --------------------- ------------------------------ Below $1.30 Pro-rata share of budget award At $1.30 performance 100% of target award 120% or more of $1.30 150% of target award
4. Actual individual payouts earned from earnings per share computations are limited to 150% of target nomination. 5. Payout of awards will be no later than March 1, 1994. 2 6. If a Plan member is terminated for any reason other than death or disability prior to the end of fiscal 1993, he/she shall not receive the benefits provided by the Plan. (However, Esterline retains the right to grant a pro-rata award to a terminated employee, based upon salary earned prior to termination, except those terminated for cause.) a. If the company in its sole discretion specifically determines that the employment of a Plan member has been terminated prior to the end of such fiscal year because of disability, the Plan member will be paid a pro-rata amount based on the time he/she was a Plan member prior to his/her termination for disability. b. For any Plan member who dies prior to the end of Esterline's fiscal 1993, a pro-rata amount based on the time he/she was a Plan member prior to the date of death will be paid to his/her estate. 7. An employee who becomes a Plan member as of a date after the beginning of Esterline's fiscal 1993 will be paid a pro-rata amount based on the time the employee participates in the Plan. /s/ W. P.

EX-13 7 EXHIBIT 13 1 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION The following commentary discusses the Company's operations for the fiscal years ended October 31, 1993 and 1992 and its financial condition at the end of fiscal 1993. 1993 FISCAL YEAR Sales in 1993 were $285 million, compared with $305 million in 1992. The $20 million decrease is almost equally divided between two business segments: Aerospace and Defense Group, and Instrumentation Group. Sales in the Automation Group increased $3 million over 1992, from $91 million to $94 million. Aerospace and Defense Group sales decreased 11% from 1992, from $111 million to $99 million. The commercial aircraft and defense markets served by this group faced significant downturns during the year, resulting in the sales decreases. Sales in the Instrumentation Group (which decreased 10% from 1992, from $102 million to $92 million) also were affected by the commercial aircraft market as well as reduced capital spending by industrial and utilities customers for the types of products produced by the group operating units. The Company does not expect a strong upturn in any of its markets in the near future. In the Automation Group, some market improvement together with new products produced the increased sales. However, orders in the group's drilling machine operation have fallen off significantly in recent months, presenting a cloudy outlook for early fiscal 1994. Including exports, sales to foreign buyers as a percent of total 1993 sales remained approximately level with the prior year at 31%. A net loss of $25.6 million, or $3.90 per share, was reported for 1993, resulting from a fourth quarter after-tax restructuring charge of $27.2 million ($40.6 million before tax). Without the restructuring charge the Company's net earnings for the year would have been $1.6 million, or $.24 per share. In the prior year, net earnings were $5.1 million, or $.76 per share. The objective of the restructuring plan is to strengthen the Company for long-term growth and permit management to focus on operations with strong market positions. It is an extension of the Company's efforts to meet market conditions in an effective manner and structure operations to maintain profitability. The continuing weakness in capital goods markets served by the Company together with a drop in the commercial aircraft industry and shrinking defense budgets caused management to make the restructuring plan effective in the fourth quarter of 1993. The plan contemplates a number of actions including either sale or shutdown of certain small operations with weak market potential. These operations represented approximately 10% of the Company's fiscal 1993 sales. Other items include write-off of intangible assets, anticipated losses on the sale of vacant facilities, employee severance, and consolidation of 2 facilities for increased efficiency. The restructuring provision is based on management's current best estimate of the effects of the contemplated actions. On a pretax basis, $21.1 million of the restructuring charge related to the Aerospace and Defense Group, $8.9 million to the Instrumentation Group and $8.4 million to the Automation Group. Company-wide backlog at October 31, 1993 was $74 million compared with $97 million the prior year. The decrease was primarily in the Aerospace and Defense Group and was due to the timing of the release of orders by customers together with the downturn in the commercial aircraft and defense markets. Automation Group backlog was also somewhat lower than a year ago due to recent low order levels for printed circuit board drilling machines. Of the year-end backlog, $14 million is scheduled to be shipped after fiscal 1994. Gross margin as a percent of sales remained approximately level from 1992 (38% in 1993 and 39% in 1992) despite reduced sales. This was the result of significant cost containment efforts throughout the Company. Gross margin percentages increased in the Automation Group and decreased in the Aerospace and Defense and Instrumentation Groups. In 1993, group margins ranged from 37% to 40%, compared with 35% to 40% in the prior year. Research, development and engineering costs increased slightly to $14 million in 1993 from $13.4 million the prior year, reflecting Esterline's continued commitment to strong product development programs. Although selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $2 million from 1992 to 1993, they increased as a percent of sales from 33.5% to 35.3%. The Company has continued its emphasis on sales and marketing despite decreased sales volumes in some segments. Operating earnings, prior to the restructuring charge, decreased overall from $23.3 million in 1992 to $16.1 million in 1993. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volumes in the Aerospace and Defense and Instrumentation Groups and the resultant reduced profitability levels. Operating earnings in the Aerospace and Defense Group decreased by 51%, from $14.9 million in 1992 to $7.3 million, and Instrumentation Group earnings dropped to $900,000 from $7.5 million in 1992. In the Automation Group, operating earnings increased from $1 million in 1992 to $7.9 million in 1993 based on some market improvement and increased sales coupled with significant cost reductions at a key operation. Net interest expense decreased from $7.2 million in 1992 to $6.3 million in 1993 due to the reduced debt level. A net tax benefit of $12.4 million was recorded in 1993 compared to a $3.1 million expense recorded in 1992. The current year net benefit reflects an estimated $13.4 million realizable tax benefit from restructuring. (See Financial Condition, below.) 3 1992 FISCAL YEAR Sales in 1992 were $305 million, compared with $351 million in 1991. Approximately three-fourths of the decrease was attributable to the Automation Group, where depressed business levels continued, resulting in sales of fewer units and competitive pricing. This group's fiscal 1992 sales decreased 27% from 1991, from $125 million to $91 million. The sale of substantially all of the assets of Hollis Automation Co. in the second quarter of fiscal 1992 (an Esterline subsidiary which was not significant to the Company in terms of operations or financial condition) accounted for less than one-third of the decrease in group sales. The capital equipment markets served by this group, particularly the electronics segment, had been depressed for several years. Although improvements were noted toward the end of fiscal 1992 and year-end backlog was more than 50% above October 1991, the Company believed a near-term return to pre-recession sales levels in this group was unlikely. In the Instrumentation Group, 1992's sales declined 9%, as this group also was affected by the economy and depressed capital equipment markets. Sales in the Aerospace and Defense Group were virtually level compared with the prior year, reflecting stability in the markets served by this group. However, uncertainties in the commercial aerospace and defense industries continued to cloud the outlook somewhat. Company-wide backlog at October 31, 1992 was $97 million, compared with $83 million a year ago. Of the $97 million, $8.5 million was expected to be filled after fiscal 1993. Including exports, sales to foreign buyers in 1992 as a percent of total sales were approximately level with the prior year at 31%. The continued soft European market was offset by a weaker U.S. dollar, making prices on U.S. goods more attractive overseas. The Company's gross margin percentage remained approximately level from 1991 to 1992 at 39%, reflecting the significant cost containment efforts, internal efficiency improvements and work force reductions undertaken to compensate for lower sales volumes and competitive pressures. On a segment basis, margin percentages decreased in the Automation Group, held level in the Aerospace and Defense Group, and increased slightly in the Instrumentation Group. The Company remained committed to new product development and to the enhancement of existing products and product lines. Though fiscal 1992 research, development and engineering expenditures of $13.4 million were down from 1991's $16.6 million, management believes these efforts were more efficient in the 1992 year. Also, research, development and engineering expenditures were reduced by the sale of Hollis Automation discussed above. Research, development and engineering expenditures in 1992 were level with 1991 in the Aerospace and Defense Group, and lower in both the Automation and Instrumentation Groups. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased nearly $10 million in 1992, from $112 million in the prior year, primarily due to reduced selling expenses in support of lower sales volumes. Cost savings resulted from the Company's continued emphasis on operating efficiencies, including resizing of operations to meet lower demand. As a result, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales increased only slightly to 33.5%, compared with 31.9% in 1991. 4 Earnings from operations were $23 million in 1992 compared with $33 million in 1991. The decrease was primarily in the Automation Group, where earnings decreased from $6.4 million in 1991 to $1.0 million in 1992, reflecting the decline in group sales. Earnings in the Aerospace and Defense Group were slightly lower than the prior year while in the Instrumentation Group, earnings declined $2.3 million (23%) as a result of lower sales. Net interest expense decreased by $5.5 million, from $12.7 million in 1991 to $7.2 million in 1992. This savings was due to progressively decreasing debt balances throughout the year, and an overall reduction in interest rates of approximately two percentage points. The effective income tax rate was 37.5% in 1992 compared to 38.8% in 1991. This slight decrease was due primarily to the availability of offsets to foreign tax liabilities. FINANCIAL CONDITION Debt at October 31, 1993 totaled $74.5 million, down from $81.8 million at October 31, 1992. The reduction was financed by cash generated from operations. The year-end debt-to-equity ratio was 1.3:1, up from 1.1:1 at the end of last year due to the effect of the restructuring charge on shareholders' equity. During 1993, the Company continued its policy of retaining all internally generated funds to support operations and to retire debt. Effective October 31, 1993, certain covenants and compliance ratios covering both the Company's credit facility with a group of banks and the 8.75% senior notes were amended to accommodate the restructuring charge. The revolving portion of the credit facility was simultaneously reduced from $75 million to $35 million. There was no borrowing under the revolving credit facility at October 31, 1993, although a $6.6 million term loan with the same group of banks remained payable at $2.5 million per quarter. Working capital at the end of 1993 totaled $9.1 million, down from $21.7 million at the end of 1992, reflecting the accrued liability portion of the restructuring charge partially offset by the deferred tax asset. Also, trade receivables and inventories decreased from 1992 by $4.3 and $4.8 million, respectively. These decreases were due primarily to lower sales levels in the current year. No significant funds requirement is anticipated as a result of the Company's restructuring plan. Proceeds from liquidation of assets are anticipated to cover out-of-pocket restructuring costs. Total available funds at October 31, 1993 consisted of cash and equivalents of $3.2 million and approximately $34 million available under short-term commitments with domestic and foreign banks. Capital expenditures were $9.6 million in 1993 and are expected to approximate $10 million in 1994. 5 During 1993, the Company adopted SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", with no material effect on the financial statements. Under this standard a net deferred tax asset was recorded as a result of the fourth quarter restructuring. This asset will be realized in the form of tax deductions when the anticipated restructuring steps are taken and sufficient profitability is achieved. Also during 1993, the Company adopted SFAS 106, "Employer's Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions", and SFAS 112, "Employer's Accounting for Postemployment Benefits", with no material effect. 6 SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA In thousands, except per share amounts, for the years ended October 31,

See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 12 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Esterline Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Foreign Currency Translation: Foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated into their U.S. dollar equivalents based on year-end exchange rates. Revenue and expense accounts are generally translated at average exchange rates. Aggregate exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of foreign assets and liabilities are included in shareholders' equity. Transaction gains and losses are included in income and have not been significant in amount. Inventories: Most inventories are stated at the lower of cost - first in, first out - or market. Two subsidiaries state their inventories at the lower of cost - last in, first out - or market. Inventory cost includes material, labor and factory overhead. Research, Development and Engineering Costs: Research, development and engineering costs approximated $14,007,000, $13,441,000 and $16,618,000 in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively, and are generally expensed as incurred. Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation: Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost and includes expenditures for major improvements which increase useful lives. Depreciation is provided generally on the straight-line method. For income tax purposes, depreciation is computed using various accelerated methods. Cost in Excess of Net Assets Acquired: The cost of purchased businesses in excess of amounts assigned to tangible and intangible assets is being amortized over periods of 30 to 40 years. Accumulated amortization at October 31, 1993 and 1992 was $6,784,000 and $6,435,000, respectively. Excess value arising from companies purchased prior to October 31, 1970 amounted to $2,800,000, and is not being amortized as in the opinion of management there has been no diminution in the value thereof. Intangibles: Intangibles, arising primarily from acquisitions, include engineering drawings, covenants not to compete and other intangibles. Intangibles are being amortized over estimated lives of 2.5 to 22 years. Accumulated amortization at October 31, 1993 and 1992 was $7,844,000 and $10,017,000, respectively. Asset Valuation: The carrying amount of long-life assets is reviewed periodically. If the asset carrying amount is not recoverable, the asset is considered to be impaired and the value is adjusted. Environmental: Environmental exposures are provided for in total at the time they are known to exist or are considered reasonably probable. Earnings per Share: Earnings per share are computed using the average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during each year (6,579,000 shares in 1993, 6,667,000 shares in 1992 and 6,543,000 shares in 1991). The effect of the convertible debentures upon earnings per share is antidilutive. Cash Equivalents: Investments maturing in three months or less are classified as cash equivalents. Financial Instruments: The Company's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, for which the fair value approximates carrying value, and notes payable and long-term debt. The fair values of notes payable and long-term debt (see Note 4) were estimated using interest rates that are currently available to the Company for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. 13 2.

The 8.25% convertible debentures were issued by Esterline International Finance N.V., a subsidiary of the Company, and require annual interest pay- ments. The debentures are convertible into common stock of the Company at $39.6667 per share, subject, in certain events, to adjustment. The debentures are guaranteed, on a subordinated basis, as to payment of interest and principal by the Company. The variable rate term loan, together with a $35,000,000 line of credit at October 31, 1993, are unsecured and are with a group of banks. Alternative interest rates are available based on LIBOR, or the lead bank's prime rate, at the Company's option. At October 31, 1993 the interest rate was 4.94%. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $2.5 million. The loan agreements contain various restrictions, including maintenance of net worth, payment of dividends, interest coverage, and limitations on additional borrowings. The fair value of the Company's notes payable and long-term debt was estimated at $75,886,000 as of October 31, 1993.

The Company makes actuarially computed contributions as necessary to adequately fund benefits. The actuarial computations assumed discount rates on benefit obligations and expected long-term rates of return on plan assets of 7.5% in 1993 and 8% in 1992, and annual compensation increases of 5% in 1993 and 6% in 1992.

INCOME TAXES During the year the company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".

19 10. CAPITAL STOCK The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 500,000 shares of preferred stock, including 25,000 shares ($100 par value) and 475,000 shares ($1.00 par value) issuable in series, and 30,000,000 shares of common stock ($.20 par value). At October 31, 1993, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding, 504,201 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance upon conversion of the 8.25% convertible debentures and 1,084,625 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the Company's stock option plans. On December 9, 1992, the Board of Directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan providing for the distribution of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right for each share of common stock held on December 23, 1992. Each Right entitles the holder to purchase one-one hundredth of a share of Series A Serial Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $56. The Rights expire December 23, 2002. The Rights will be exercisable and transferable apart from the common stock only if a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the Company's common stock or commences a tender offer or exchange offer which would result in a person or group beneficially owning 10% or more of the Company's common stock. The Rights will be redeemable by the Company for $.01 each at any time prior to the tenth day after an announcement that a person or group beneficially owns 10% or more of the common stock. Upon the occurrence of certain events, the holder of a Right can purchase, for the then current exercise price of the Right, shares of common stock of the Company (or under certain circumstances, as determined by the Board of Directors, cash, other securities or property) having a value of twice the Right's exercise price. Upon the occurrence of certain other events, the holder of each Right would be entitled to purchase, at the exercise price of the Right, shares of common stock of a corporation or other entity acquiring the Company or engaging in certain transactions involving the Company, that has a market value of twice the Right's exercise price. 11. RESTRUCTURING PROVISION In the fourth quarter of 1993 the Company recorded a $40.6 million restructuring charge ($27.2 million net of income tax effect), based on management's current best estimate of the effects of the contemplated actions. The provision provides for sale or shutdown of certain operating companies, consolidation of plants and product lines, including employee severance, write-off of intangible assets which no longer have value and the write-down and sale of two vacant facilities. The charges reduced earnings per share by $4.14. 20 12.
