NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Allegheny Teledyne Incorporated and its subsidiaries ("Allegheny Teledyne" or
the "Company"). These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (which
include only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. These unaudited consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 1998 Annual Report. The
results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of the operating results for a full year.
Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued in June 1998. This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities. It 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. This statement is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.
The Company is presently evaluating the effect of adopting this statement.

Note 6. Stockholders' Equity
Allegheny Teledyne paid a cash dividend of $0.16 per share of common stock in
both the 1999 and 1998 first quarters. On May 13, 1999, the Company's Board of
Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.16 per share of common
stock. The dividend is payable on June 15, 1999 to stockholders of record at the
close of business on June 1, 1999.

<PAGE>
On October 1, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock
repurchase program to acquire up to 20 million shares of Allegheny Teledyne's
common stock. The shares may be purchased from time-to-time in the open market
or in negotiated transactions. In the 1999 first quarter, the Company had
purchased 2.6 million shares for $52.2 million under this program. From the
inception of the share repurchase program through May 12, 1999, the Company has
repurchased approximately 5.8 million shares at an aggregate cost of $118.0
million.
Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and
regulations which require that it investigate and remediate the effects of the
release or disposal of materials at sites associated with past and present
operations, including sites at which the Company has been identified as a
potentially responsible party under the federal Superfund laws and comparable
state laws. The Company is currently involved in the investigation and
remediation of a number of sites under these laws.
Environmental liabilities are recorded when the Company's liability is
probable and the costs are reasonably estimable. In many cases, however,
investigations are not yet at a stage where the Company has been able to
determine whether it is liable or, if liability is probable, to reasonably
estimate the loss or range of loss, or certain components thereof. Estimates of
the Company's liability are further subject to uncertainties regarding the
nature and extent of site contamination, the range of remediation alternatives
available, evolving remediation standards, imprecise engineering evaluations and
estimates of appropriate cleanup technology, methodology and cost, the extent of
corrective actions that may be required, and the number and financial condition
of other potentially responsible parties, as well as the extent of their
responsibility for the remediation. Accordingly, as investigation and
remediation of these sites proceeds, it is likely that adjustments in the
Company's accruals will be necessary to reflect new information. The amounts of
any such adjustments could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations in a given period, but the amounts, and the possible range
of loss in excess of amounts accrued, are not reasonably estimable. Based on
currently available information, however, management does not believe future
environmental costs in excess of those accrued with respect to sites with which
the Company has been identified are likely to have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial condition or liquidity. However, there can be no
assurance that additional future developments, administrative actions or
liabilities relating to environmental matters will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
At March 31, 1999, the Company's reserves for environmental remediation
obligations totaled approximately $31.7 million, of which approximately $8.3
million was included in other current liabilities. The reserve includes
estimated probable future costs of $11.7 million for federal Superfund and
comparable state-managed sites; $4.1 million for formerly owned or operated
sites for which the Company has remediation or indemnification obligations; $8.1
million for owned or controlled sites at which Company operations have been
discontinued; and $7.8 million for sites utilized by the Company in its ongoing
operations. The Company is evaluating whether it may be able to recover a
portion of future costs for environmental liabilities from its insurance
carriers and from third parties other than participating potentially responsible
parties.
The timing of expenditures depends on a number of factors that vary by site,
including the nature and extent of contamination, the number of potentially
responsible parties, the timing of regulatory approvals, the complexity of the
investigation and remediation, and the standards for
9
<PAGE>
remediation. The Company expects that it will expend present accruals over many
years, and will complete remediation of all sites for which it has identified
remediation obligations in up to thirty years.
Various claims (whether based on U.S. Government or Company audits and
investigations or otherwise) have been or may be asserted against the Company
related to its U.S. Government contract work, including claims based on business
practices and cost classifications and actions under the False Claims Act.
Although such claims are generally resolved by detailed fact-finding and
negotiation, on those occasions when they are not so resolved, civil or criminal
legal or administrative proceedings may ensue. Depending on the circumstances
and the outcome, such proceedings could result in fines, penalties, compensatory
and treble damages or the cancellation or suspension of payments under one or
more U.S. Government contracts. Under government regulations, a company, or one
or more of its operating divisions or units, can also be suspended or debarred
from government contracts based on the results of investigations. However,
although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty,
management does not believe there is any audit, review or investigation
currently pending against the Company of which management is aware that is
likely to result in suspension or debarment of the Company, or that is otherwise
likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or
liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of
these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of
operations for that period.
The Company learns from time to time that it has been named as a defendant in
civil actions filed under seal pursuant to the False Claims Act. Generally,
since such cases are under seal, the Company does not in all cases possess
sufficient information to determine whether the Company will sustain a material
loss in connection with such cases, or to reasonably estimate the amount of any
loss attributable to such cases.
A number of other lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be
asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its business, including
those pertaining to product liability, patent infringement, commercial,
employment, employee benefits, tax, and stockholder matters. While the outcome
of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and some of these lawsuits,
claims or proceedings may be determined adversely to the Company, management
does not believe that the disposition of any such pending matters is likely to
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or
liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of
these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of
operations for that period.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Allegheny Teledyne Incorporated is a group of technology-based manufacturing
businesses with significant concentration in specialty metals, complemented by
aerospace and electronics, industrial, and consumer products. The Company's
Specialty Metals Segment accounted for 55 percent of the Company's total sales
from continuing operations of $928.0 million for the 1999 first quarter. Its
Aerospace and Electronics, Industrial and Consumer Segments accounted for 26
percent, 13 percent and 6 percent, respectively, of total sales from continuing
operations for the 1999 first quarter. Such percentages were approximately the
same for the 1998 first quarter, where total sales from continuing operations
were $966.1 million.
For the 1999 first quarter, operating profit was $99.9 million compared to
$108.4 million for the same 1998 period. Sales from continuing operations
declined 3.9 percent to $928.0 million for the 1999 first quarter compared to
$966.1 million for the 1998 period. The lower results were due mainly to
continuing difficult pricing conditions in stainless steel, titanium and
tungsten carbide markets and reduced demand for high performance metals in the
commercial aerospace and oil and gas markets. Continuing cost reduction efforts,
lower raw material costs, and the diversification of the Company's specialty
metals businesses partially offset the impacts of continuing weak conditions in
several of the Company's markets.
Net income was $60.6 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the 1999 first
quarter, compared to $26.9 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the same
1998 period. Net income in the first quarter 1999 was impacted by $4.4 million,
or $0.02 per diluted share, relating to start-up costs associated with several
recent major strategic capital investments in the Specialty Metals Segment,
operating losses associated with businesses sold during the quarter, and costs
relating to the previously announced proposed spin-offs of the Aerospace and
Electronics and Consumer Segments. In addition, net income for the first quarter
1999 was also impacted by higher interest expenses as a result of higher levels
of debt from more than $400 million in cash outlays for strategic acquisitions
and capital investments in 1998. Net income in the first quarter 1998 was
reduced by $40.9 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, relating to merger and
restructuring costs in the Specialty Metals Segment.
The Company continues to be cautious of the uncertain business outlook in the
United States and concerned about the global economic outlook. During 1999, the
Company has continued to conserve its financial resources by reinforcing cost
reduction efforts, maintaining tighter controls on working capital and lowering
capital spending plans.
Sales and operating profit for the Company's four business segments are
discussed below.
Specialty Metals
First quarter 1999 operating profit decreased to $59.3 million from $70.4
million in the same year-ago period. Sales decreased 6.9 percent to $507.2
million compared to the prior year period due mainly to reduced prices for
commodity stainless steel and titanium, reduced demand in commercial aerospace
markets, and lower demand for nickel-based and specialty steel alloys in U.S.
and European oil and gas markets. Special items relating to start-up costs
associated with several recent strategic capital projects reduced first quarter
1999 operating profit by approximately $3.4 million. These projects include
Allegheny Ludlum's new Sendzimir mill and wide anneal and pickle line, Allvac's
new vacuum induction furnace, and Oremet-Wah
11
<PAGE>
Chang's new electron beam melt facility. In addition to these special items,
the quarter was negatively impacted during the early period of integrating the
stainless steel melting, rolling and finishing assets purchased in November
1998 from Bethlehem Steel.
Allegheny Ludlum
----------------
Operating profit after special items for Allegheny Ludlum increased 20.6
percent in the first quarter 1999 compared to the same period in 1998. First
quarter 1999 sales declined less than 1.0 percent compared to the 1998 first
quarter in spite of lower prices for commodity stainless steel products. The
increase in operating profit was achieved despite lower prices for commodity
stainless steel products and the impact of the special items, due to reasonably
good demand, lower raw material costs and continuing cost reductions.
The average price of flat-rolled specialty metals, excluding semi-finished
products, declined 4.6 percent in the quarter, to $2,148 per ton from $2,251 per
ton in the first quarter 1998, due primarily to lower prices for commodity
stainless steel sheet and strip. The average price in the quarter of total
flat-rolled specialty metals products, including semi-finished products,
declined 10.0 percent, to $2,025 per ton from $2,251 per ton in the first
quarter 1998. Semi-finished product shipments increased in the first quarter
1999 following completion of the asset purchases from Bethlehem Steel in
November 1998. Total tons of flat-rolled specialty metals shipped in the first
quarter 1999 increased 10.1 percent to 153,400 tons, compared to 139,300 tons in
the year ago period.
High Performance Metals
-----------------------
Operating profit after special items for high performance metals declined
40.9 percent in the first quarter 1999 compared to the same period in 1998.
Sales decreased 15.0 percent in the quarter compared to the same period a year
ago. The decline in operating results occurred primarily in the titanium
business due to lower prices, continuing inventory adjustments in commercial
aerospace and leveling-off of new aircraft production, and reduced demand from
chemical processing and recreational markets. Also, reduced demand in U.S. and
European oil and gas markets for nickel-based and specialty steel alloys and the
special items at Oremet-Wah Chang and Allvac negatively impacted this year's
first quarter. These items were partially offset by strong demand for
nickel-based superalloys for large land-based power generation turbines,
reasonably good demand for premium titanium alloys for jet engines and spares,
lower raw material costs, and continuing cost reduction efforts.
Aerospace and Electronics Segment
Operating profit increased 17.4 percent to $25.7 million for the first
quarter 1999 from $21.9 million in the same 1998 period. Sales increased 1.8
percent to $242.3 million compared to the prior year period.
Increased sales and operating profit at Brown Engineering, Continental
Motors and Ryan Aeronautical more than offset declines at Electronic
Technologies and Cast Parts. At Brown Engineering and Continental Motors, sales
and operating margins increased in most product lines with especially strong
results for Continental Motors' turbine engines. Ryan Aeronautical sales
increased in all product lines except the Apache helicopter program, which
completed deliveries of airframes in the fourth quarter of 1998, and operating
12
<PAGE>
margins improved in all product lines. At Electronic Technologies, increased
demand for advanced data acquisition and communication products partially offset
reduced demand for contract manufacturing services and precision electronic
devices. Operating results for Cast Parts were adversely affected by reduced
demand from commercial aerospace markets.
Industrial Segment
Operating profit for the first quarter 1999 decreased 11.9 percent to $12.6
million from $14.3 million in the same period of 1998. Sales decreased 7.4
percent to $122.1 million compared to the prior year period.
The decline in sales and operating profit in the 1999 first quarter resulted
primarily from reduced demand for tungsten, tungsten carbide, and carbide
cutting tools due to weaker global market conditions affecting Metalworking
Products.
Consumer Segment
Operating profit increased to $2.3 million in the first quarter 1999 from
$1.8 million in the same 1998 period. Sales increased 9.5 percent to $56.4
million compared to the prior year period. Sales and operating profit improved
at both Laars and Water Pik. The first quarter is normally the weakest quarter
for the seasonal businesses of the Consumer Segment.
Corporate Items
Corporate expenses for the first quarter 1999 decreased by 10.7 percent to
$9.2 million. Net interest expense increased $5.0 million from the first quarter
1998 due to higher levels of debt resulting from more than $400 million of
purchases of businesses and investments in ventures and increased capital
spending during 1998. Excess pension income increased to $16.1 million in the
first quarter 1999 compared to $10.6 million in the same 1998 period due to
higher pension assets as a result of strong investment performance during 1998.
Special Items
In the 1999 first quarter, special items reduced net income by $4.4 million,
or $0.02 per diluted share. These items, net of taxes, included start-up costs
of $2.2 million, or $0.01 per share, in the Specialty Metals Segment associated
with recently completed strategic capital investments, operating losses on
businesses sold during the quarter of $1.6 million, or $0.01 per share, and
costs of $0.6 million related to the previously announced proposed spin-offs of
the Aerospace and Electronics and the Consumer Segments into two freestanding
public companies.
Non-recurring events resulted in an after-tax charge of $40.9 million, or
$0.21 per diluted share in the 1998 first quarter. These events included deal
costs of $10.3 million, or $0.05 per share, related to the acquisition of
OREMET, along with charges of $3.5 million, or $0.02 per share, for a planned
salaried workforce reduction related to integrating the operations of OREMET and
Wah Chang. Also, Allegheny Ludlum recorded a $7.4 million charge, or $0.04 per
share, due to a salaried workforce reduction. In addition, costs of $19.7
million, or $0.10 per share, relating to the Specialty Metals Segment were
recorded associated with exiting certain product lines and asset impairments
resulting from recently completed capital expenditure programs.

Transformation and Reconfiguration Initiatives
In early April 1999, the Company submitted a request for a private letter
ruling to the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the tax-free nature of
the two proposed spin-offs.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued in June 1998. This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities. It 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. This statement is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.
The Company is presently evaluating the effect of adopting this statement.
Income Taxes
The Company's first quarter 1999 effective tax rate was 35.0 percent, compared
to 41.1 percent for the same period in 1998. This lower rate reflects the impact
of non-deductible merger and restructuring charges in the first quarter of 1998
and benefits from federal and state tax planning initiatives.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
- ---------------------------------
Working capital decreased to $695.6 million at March 31, 1999, compared to
$742.2 million at December 31, 1998. The current ratio decreased to 2.1 from 2.2
in this same period. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to lower
inventories and higher short-term debt and current portion of long-term debt
offset by higher receivables and lower accrued liabilities balances.
In the first quarter of 1999, cash generated from operations of $69.4
million, proceeds from the net increase in debt of $14.1 million and proceeds
from the sale of businesses and investments of $5.8 million were used to
repurchase shares for $52.2 million, pay dividends of $31.1 million, and invest
$25.2 million in capital equipment and business expansion. Cash transactions
plus cash on hand at the beginning of the year resulted in a cash position of
$57.5 million at March 31, 1999. Capital expenditures for 1999 are expected to
approximate $128 million, of which $24.1 million were spent during the first
three months of 1999.
On October 1, 1998, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock
repurchase program to acquire up to 20 million shares of Allegheny Teledyne's
common stock. The shares may be purchased from time-to-time in the open market.
During the first quarter of 1999, the Company repurchased 2.6 million shares at
a cost of $52.2 million. From the inception of the share repurchase program
through May 12, 1999, the Company has repurchased a total of approximately 5.8
million shares at a cost of $118.0 million.
On May 13, 1999, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly
dividend of $0.16 per share of common stock. The dividend is payable June 15,
1999 to shareholders of record at the close of business June 1, 1999.
The Company believes that internally generated funds, current cash on hand
and borrowing from existing credit lines will be adequate to meet foreseeable
needs. The Company may choose, however, to issue additional debt depending on
market conditions.

Other Matters
- -------------
Environmental
The Company is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and
regulations which require that it investigate and remediate the effects of the
release or disposal of materials at sites associated with past and present
operations, including sites at which the Company has been identified as a
potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act, commonly known as Superfund, and comparable
state laws. The Company is currently involved in the investigation and
remediation of a number of sites under these laws. The Company's reserves for
environmental investigation and remediation totaled approximately $31.7 million
at March 31, 1999. Based on currently available information, management does not
believe future environmental costs at sites with which the Company has been
identified in excess of those accrued are likely to have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity, although the
resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for that period.
With respect to proceedings brought under the federal Superfund laws, or
similar state statutes, the Company has been identified as a potentially
responsible party at approximately 34 such sites, excluding those at which it
believes it has no future liability. The Company's involvement is very limited
or de minimus at approximately 12 of these sites, and the potential loss
exposure with respect to any of remaining 22 sites is not considered to be
material.
For additional discussion of environmental matters, see Note 7 to the
consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Government Contracts
A number of the Company's operating companies perform work on contracts with
the U.S. Government. Many of these contracts include price redetermination
clauses, and most are terminable at the convenience of the government. Certain
of these contracts are fixed-price or fixed-price incentive development
contracts which involve a risk that costs may exceed those expected when the
contracts were negotiated. Absent modification of these contracts, any costs
incurred in excess of the fixed or ceiling prices must be borne by the Company.
In addition, virtually all defense programs are subject to curtailment or
cancellation due to the year-to-year nature of the government appropriations and
allocations process. A material reduction in U.S. Government appropriations may
have an adverse effect on the Company's business, depending upon the specific
programs affected by any such reduction. Since certain contracts extend over a
long period of time, all revisions in cost and funding estimates during the
progress of work have the effect of adjusting the current period earnings on a
cumulative catch-up basis. When the current contract estimate indicates a loss,
provision is made for the total anticipated loss. The Company obtains many U.S.
Government contracts through the process of competitive bidding. There can be no
assurance that the Company will continue to be successful in having its bids
accepted.
Various claims (whether based on U.S. Government or Company audits and
investigations or otherwise) have been or may be asserted against the Company
related to its U.S. Government contract work, including claims based on business
practices and cost classifications and actions under the False Claims Act. The
False Claims Act permits a person to assert the rights of the U.S. Government by
initiating a suit under seal against a contractor if such person purports to
have information that the contractor falsely
15
<PAGE>
submitted a claim to the U.S. Government for payment. If it chooses, the U.S.
Government may intervene and assume control of the case.
Although government contracting claims may be resolved by detailed
fact-finding and negotiation, on those occasions when they are not so resolved,
civil or criminal legal or administrative proceedings may ensue. Depending on
the circumstances and the outcome, such proceedings could result in fines,
penalties, compensatory and treble damages or the cancellation or suspension of
payments under one or more U.S. Government contracts. Under government
regulations, a company, or one or more of its operating divisions or units, can
also be suspended or debarred from government contracts based on the results of
investigations. Given the extent of the Company's business with the U.S.
Government, a suspension or debarment of the Company could have a material
adverse effect on the future operating results and consolidated financial
condition of the Company. However, although the outcome of these matters cannot
be predicted with certainty, management does not believe there is any audit,
review or investigation currently pending against the Company of which
management is aware that is likely to result in suspension or debarment of the
Company, or that is otherwise likely to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition or liquidity, although the resolution in any
reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's results of operations for that period.
For additional discussion of government contract matters, see Note 7 to the
consolidated financial statements of the Company.
Impact of the Introduction of the Euro
The Company has continued to evaluate effects of the January 1, 1999
conversion and related transition by 11 member states of the European Union to a
common currency, the "euro". The United Kingdom, where a significant portion of
the Company's European operations is located, is not currently a participating
country. Based on preliminary findings, the Company does not expect the euro
conversion to have a material impact on the Company's results of operation or
financial condition. Like other companies with European sales and operations,
the Company anticipates that it will face wage and product pricing transparency
issues in participating countries; however, the Company does not expect the
resolution of these issues to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Additionally, while the Company expects to encounter some technical challenges
to adapt information technology and other systems to accommodate
euro-denominated transactions, it does not anticipate associated costs to be
material. Mostly due to evolving business needs and continuing technological
advances, the Company has been modifying and replacing its computer software and
hardware at its European operations. The Company believes that the euro
conversion will not have a material adverse effect on its foreign currency
activities described below.
Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure
Over the past several years, the Company has put in place management task
forces at its operating companies to identify whether its computer systems,
which include business computers, mill equipment and process control computers
and other devices using a microprocessor, as well as telecommunication and
payroll and employee benefit processing systems, would function properly with
respect to dates in the Year 2000 and thereafter. These task forces report to
the Executive Resource Information Committee, a senior management committee
charged with reviewing and establishing priorities for information
technology-related matters, including Year 2000 issues, and which reports to the
Audit and Finance Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. Through these
efforts, Year 2000 identification, solution development, testing and
implementation initiatives, and contingency planning initiatives are in process
at Allegheny Teledyne and each of the operating companies.
16
<PAGE>
In part as a result of its Year 2000 initiatives, but mostly due to evolving
business needs and continuing technological advancements, the Company has been
modifying and replacing portions of its computer software and hardware systems.
The Company estimates, based on dollars expended, that installation of solutions
to identified Year 2000 issues relating to its information technology systems is
approximately 95 percent complete. While the Company estimates that based on
dollars expended, about 95 percent of solutions have been implemented for its
non-information technology systems, the Company continues to work to resolve
various manufacturing-related Year 2000 issues. The Company continues to target
having substantially all internal solutions relating to Year 2000 functionality
of its computer systems developed and implemented by June 1999. This targeted
completion date depends, however, on numerous assumptions, including continued
availability of trained personnel in this area.
Efforts continue to be made to identify and resolve customer- and
supplier-based Year 2000 issues that could affect the Company and its operating
and support systems. The Company believes that it has identified substantially
all material customer- and supplier-based Year 2000 issues. Efforts also
continue to be made to identify whether products produced and sold by Allegheny
Teledyne's operating companies have Year 2000 issues. The Company believes that
it has identified substantially all products that have Year 2000 issues and is
working to resolve such issues. The Company believes that there are no
significant product-related Year 2000 issues. The Company has not conducted any
review of products manufactured and sold by discontinued businesses or
businesses that it has sold.
Excluding expenditures necessitated by ordinary business needs and continuing
technological advancements in the computer industry, the Company spent
approximately $11 million in 1998 and anticipates spending another estimated $7
million in 1999 to address Year 2000 issues. These expenditures do not include
expenditures that may be required to address Year 2000 issues associated with
some products. Substantially all costs related to the Company's Year 2000
initiatives are expensed as incurred and funded through operating cash flows.
Additional amounts may be spent in subsequent years.
Based upon internal assessments, formal communications with suppliers and
customers with which the Company exchanges electronic data, and work completed
to date, the Company believes that Year 2000 issues should not pose significant
operational problems or have a material impact on the Company's consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flow. A failure of third party
vendors or customers to be Year 2000 ready, however, could adversely affect
these beliefs and is not quantifiable. Such failure could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flow in a given period, but probably not over the long-term.
The most reasonably likely worst case scenario of failure by the Company or its
suppliers or customers to resolve Year 2000 problems would be a temporary
slowdown or cessation of manufacturing operations at one or more of the
Company's facilities and a temporary inability on the part of the Company to
timely process orders and to deliver finished products to customers. Delays in
meeting customers' orders would affect the timing of billings to and payments
received from customers in respect of orders and could result in other
liabilities. Customers' Year 2000 problems could also delay the timing of
payments to the Company for orders. Efforts continue to be underway to identify
contingency plans should unplanned situations arise as a result of January 1,
2000.
While the Company has been conducting a comprehensive Year 2000 review of its
computer systems, there may be Year 2000-related matters that have not been
identified. Actual dollar amounts spent by the Company to address Year 2000
issues could materially differ from the estimates for a number of reasons,
17
<PAGE>
including changes in the availability or costs of personnel trained in this
area, changes made to the Company's remediation plans, the ability of the
Company's significant suppliers, customers and others with which it conducts
business, including governmental agencies, to identify and resolve their own
Year 2000 issues or identification of other Year 2000-related matters.
Forward-Looking Statements
From time to time the Company has made and may continue to make
forward-looking statements. Certain forward-looking statements are contained in
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements of the Company,
including statements concerning the anticipated effects of the proposed
strategic transformation and dispositions by the Company, completed
acquisitions, further cost reduction efforts, new material costs, capital
spending plans, adequacy of available funds to meet foreseeable needs,
anticipated effects of the euro conversion, anticipated expenditures to address
and the impact of Year 2000-computer-systems issues, the Company's use of
financial derivative instruments, the outcome of any government inquiries,
litigation or other future proceedings related to government contract or other
matters, and environmental costs. These statements are based on current
expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those
described above under the captions "Other Matters - Environmental" and "Other
Matters - Government Contracts" and elsewhere herein. Completion of the proposed
spin-offs and public offerings and achieving anticipated results involve
inherent uncertainties, including those related to whether legal, financial and
other considerations can be successfully resolved. In addition, realization of
the anticipated benefits of such proposed strategic transactions, as well as the
Company's completed acquisitions, including OREMET, Allvac-SMP and the Bethlehem
agreements, could take longer than expected and implementation difficulties,
market factors and further deterioration in domestic or global economic
conditions could alter the anticipated benefits. Actual results may differ
materially from the results anticipated in the forward-looking statements.
Additional risk factors are described from time to time in the Company's filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1998. The Company assumes no duty to update its
forward-looking statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company uses derivative financial instruments from time to time to hedge
ordinary business risks regarding foreign currencies on product sales and to
partially hedge against volatile raw material cost fluctuations in the Specialty
Metals Segment.
Foreign currency exchange contracts are used to limit transactional exposure
to changes in currency exchange rates. The Company sometimes purchases foreign
currency forward contracts that effectively permit it to sell specified amounts
of foreign currencies expected to be received from its export sales for
pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. The forward contracts
are denominated in the same foreign currencies in which export sales are
denominated. These contracts, which are not financially material, are designated
as hedges of export sales transactions in which settlement will occur in future
periods, which otherwise would expose the Company, on the basis of its aggregate
net cash flows in respective currencies, to foreign currency risk.
A portion of the Company's operations consists of investments in foreign
subsidiaries. As a result, the Company's financial results could be affected by
changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To mitigate this foreign currency
translation risk, the Company has a practice of recapitalizing operations using
local foreign currency debt to replace direct equity investment. The average
interest rate to service this foreign debt is favorable to current U.S. interest
rates.
18
<PAGE>
As part of its risk management strategy, the Company purchases
exchange-traded futures contracts to manage exposure to changes in nickel
prices, a component of raw material cost for some of the specialty metals
companies. The nickel futures contracts obligate the Company to make or receive
a payment equal to the net change in value of the contract at its maturity. Some
of these contracts can be designated as hedges of the Company's firm sales
commitments and are short-term in nature to correspond to the commitment period.
The gains and losses on these contracts are deferred and recognized in earnings
when realized as an adjustment to cost of goods sold. Historically, the Company
has not closed any significant contracts prior to the execution of the
underlying sale transaction, nor have any of the underlying sales transactions
failed to occur which resulted in a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company guarantees the outstanding Allegheny Ludlum fixed rate 6.95%
debentures due in 2025. In a period of declining interest rates, the Company
faces the risk of required interest payments exceeding those based on the then
current market rate. To mitigate interest rate risk, the Company attempts to
maintain a reasonable balance between fixed and variable rate debt to keep
financing costs as low as possible.
The Company believes that adequate controls are in place to monitor these
activities, which are not financially material. However, many factors, including
those beyond the control of the Company such as changes in domestic and foreign
political and economic conditions, as well as the magnitude and timing of
interest rate changes, could adversely affect these activities.
