PART I
Item 1. Business.
Elcor Corporation (Registrant), incorporated in 1965 as a Delaware
corporation, is a publicly held corporation headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
Shares of the Registrant's common stock are traded on the New York Stock
Exchange with the ticker symbol -- ELK.
Lines of Business.
Roofing Products
The Registrant, through Elk Corporation of Dallas and its subsidiaries
(Elk), is engaged in the manufacture and sale of premium laminated fiberglass
asphalt residential roofing products. Elk also manufactures and sells nonwoven
fiberglass mats for use as a substrate material in manufacturing asphalt
roofing products, and nonwoven mats for use in other industrial applications.
Elk is spending about $80 million over a three-year period to significantly
increase its manufacturing capacity for premium laminated fiberglass asphalt
shingles and nonwoven fiberglass mats. As of June 30, 1995, cumulative capital
expenditures for this expansion program have been approximately $54 million.
Elk's premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingle manufacturing plants are
located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Ennis, Texas and a new plant in Shafter,
California was in start-up operations at the end of fiscal 1995. Capital
expenditures for the new plant are expected to be about $45 million. The new
plant has the potential to increase Elk's present capacity for manufacturing
premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles by more than 65%.
The major products manufactured at Elk's roofing plants are premium
laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles sold under its brand names: Prestique(R)
Plus, Prestique(R) I, Prestique(R) II and Capstone(R). Late in the first
quarter of fiscal 1995, Elk introduced Prestique premium laminated fiberglass
asphalt shingle product lines with the patented new enhanced High Definition(R)
and Raised Profile(TM) look. In addition, Elk also manufactures premium
fiberglass asphalt hip and ridge products: Seal-a-Ridge(R) and Z(R) ridge
brands.
Elk's roofing products are sold by employee sales personnel primarily to
non-owned distributors, delivery being made by common carrier or by customer
vehicles from the manufacturing plants. Elk's products are distributed in about
40 states with Texas, California and Florida representing the largest market
areas. The Roofing Products segment accounted for approximately 87% of
consolidated sales of the Registrant's in fiscal 1995. One customer, ABC Supply
Co. Inc., accounted for 11% of consolidated sales in fiscal 1995.
<PAGE> 3
Elk is constructing a major new fiberglass mat manufacturing facility,
which will be installed in parallel to its existing fiberglass mat
manufacturing facility at its Ennis, Texas plant. It will manufacture nonwoven
fiberglass mats for use as a roofing substrate material and for industrial
facer products. The new plant will have the potential to more than triple
present manufacturing capacity for nonwoven fiberglass mats. Capital
expenditures for the new plant addition are estimated to be about $35 million.
The new plant is scheduled to begin operations in the spring of 1996.
Elk's nonwoven fiberglass mats are used in the production of its premium
roofing products and are sold by employee sales personnel to other asphalt
roofing products manufacturers, manufacturers of construction and industrial
products which use such mats in their products, and to distributors of
industrial filtration products. Elk's nonwoven mats are shipped by common
carrier to its other roofing plants and to its customers' locations.
Industrial Products
The Registrant, through Chromium Corporation (Chromium), is engaged in the
remanufacture of diesel engine cylinder liners and tin plating of pistons,
including hard chrome plating of cylinder bores, primarily for the railroad,
marine, and stationary power industries; and hard chrome plating of original
equipment cylinder liners and tin plating of pistons for major domestic
locomotive manufacturers and stationary power equipment manufacturers. Chromium
is also engaged in electroless shielding of telecommunications, medical
electronic and other electronic equipment which is designed to control the level
of electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) emissions
generated by electronic components. Sales are generated by employee sales
personnel, with delivery made primarily by common carrier. Chromium's sales
accounted for 11% of consolidated sales of the Registrant in fiscal 1995.
Another unit of the Registrant, OEL, LTD., d/b/a Ortloff Engineers, Ltd.
(Ortloff), is engaged in providing patent licensing and engineering support
services and providing consulting engineering services to the oil and gas
production, gas processing and sulfur recovery industries. Ortloff licenses
patents owned by the Registrant for use in new or redesigned natural gas and
refinery gas processing facilities and utilizes technology licenses from others
and its own expertise in the performance of consulting engineering assignments.
Ortloff continues to develop and patent improved processes for natural gas
processing. Three new patent applications were filed in fiscal 1995 and work is
continuing on additional applications to be filed in fiscal 1996. These efforts
reflect Ortloff's commitment to continually update and advance its technological
position.
Patent license fees are calculated by standard formulas that take into
account both specific project criteria and market conditions, adjusted for
special conditions that exist in a project. Consulting engineering assignments
are performed under consulting services agreements at negotiated rates.

Competitive Conditions.
Roofing Products
Even though the asphalt roofing products manufacturing business is highly
competitive, the Registrant believes that Elk is a leading manufacturer of
premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles. Elk has been able to compete
successfully with its competitors, some of which are larger in size and have
greater financial resources.
There are a number of major national and regional manufacturers marketing
their products in a portion or all of the market areas served by the
Registrant's plants. The Registrant competes primarily on the basis of product
quality, design, service and price.
Industrial Products
The Registrant believes that Chromium is the leading remanufacturer of
diesel engine cylinder liners and pistons for the railroad and marine
transportation industries and is the primary supplier of hard chrome plated
finishes for original equipment diesel engine cylinder liners to all of the
major domestic locomotive manufacturers. The Registrant believes it has smaller
competitors in the locomotive diesel engine cylinder liner remanufacturing
market. The Registrant also believes that Chromium is one of the leading hard
chrome platers of recycled and original equipment large bore cylinder liners for
stationary power applications. Chromium has achieved a leading position in these
markets through competition on the basis of product performance, quality,
service and price. The Registrant, through the Conductive Coatings Division of
Chromium, is engaged in electroless shielding of plastic enclosures for
telecommunications, medical electronic and other electronic equipment. The
Registrant believes the success of Chromium's Conductive Coatings Division in
becoming a qualified supplier for and obtaining orders from major
telecommunications, medical electronic and other electronic equipment
manufacturers will enable it to successfully compete in this market niche with
the potential of becoming a leader in the future.
The Registrant believes that it holds significant state-of-the-art patents
covering some of the most competitive processes for the separation of ethane and
heavier hydrocarbon liquids from refinery and natural gas streams. The
Registrant believes it has widely recognized expertise in the design and
operation of facilities for natural gas liquids recovery, sulfur recovery and
field processing of sour crude oil and natural gas production.

Backlog.
Backlog was not significant, nor is it material, in the Registrant's
operations.
Raw Materials.
Roofing Products
In the asphalt roofing products manufacturing business, the significant raw
materials are ceramic coated granules, asphalt, glass fibers, resins and mineral
filler. All of these materials are presently available from several sources and
are in adequate supply. Historically, the Registrant has been able to pass some
of the higher raw material and transportation costs through to the customer.
Costs of asphalt and glass fibers increased during the latter half of fiscal
1995 resulting in reduced margins. The Company implemented three modest price
increases during the March through July 1995 period to offset the impact of
higher raw material costs.
Industrial Products
In the Registrant's business of hard chrome plating and remanufacturing
diesel engine cylinder liners and large bore cylinder liners, chromic acid is a
significant raw material which is presently available from a number of domestic
suppliers. The Registrant believes these domestic suppliers obtain the ore for
manufacturing chromic acid principally from sources outside the United States,
some of which are subject to political uncertainty. The Registrant has been
advised by its suppliers that they maintain substantial inventories of chromic
acid in order to minimize the potential effects of foreign interruption in ore
supply.
No raw materials are utilized in the Registrant's consulting engineering
and technology licensing business.
Patents, Licenses, Franchises and Concessions.
The Registrant holds certain patents, particularly in its consulting
engineering and licensing business, which are significant to its operations.
However, the Registrant does not believe that the loss of any one of these
patents or of any license, franchise or concession would have a material adverse
effect on the Registrant's overall business operations. The Registrant, through
its subsidiary, Elk Corporation of Dallas, is involved in litigation against GAF
Building Materials Corporation concerning design and utility patents covering
aspects of Elk's High Definition shingles. Refer to Item 3 "Legal Proceedings"
for a more detailed discussion of this matter.
Environmental Matters.
The Registrant and its subsidiaries are subject to federal, state and local
requirements regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, the
handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes, and protection of the
public health and the environment generally (collectively,
4
<PAGE> 6
Environmental Laws). Governmental authorities have the power to require
compliance with these Environmental Laws, and violators may be subject to civil
or criminal penalties, injunctions or both. Third parties may also have the
right to sue to enforce compliance and to require remediation of contamination.
The Registrant and its subsidiaries are also subject to Environmental Laws
that impose liability for the costs of cleaning up contamination resulting from
past spills, disposal, and other releases of hazardous substances. In
particular, an entity may be subject to liability under the Federal
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA or
Superfund) and similar state laws that impose liability -- without a showing of
fault, negligence, or regulatory violations -- for the generation,
transportation or disposal of hazardous substances that have caused, or may
cause, environmental contamination. In addition, an entity could be liable for
cleanup of property it owns or operates even if it did not contribute to the
contamination of such property. From time to time, the Registrant or its
subsidiaries may incur such remediation and related costs at the company owned
plants and at certain offsite locations.
The Registrant anticipates that its subsidiaries will incur costs to comply
with Environmental Laws, including correcting existing non-compliance with such
laws and achieving compliance with anticipated future standards for air
emissions and reduction of waste streams. Such subsidiaries expend funds to
minimize the discharge of materials into the environment and to comply with
governmental regulations relating to the protection of the environment. Neither
these expenditures nor other activities initiated in compliance with
Environmental Laws is expected to have a material impact on the consolidated
financial position, net earnings or liquidity of the Company.
Persons Employed.
At June 30, 1995, the Registrant and its subsidiaries had 704 employees.
Extended Payment Terms.
In some years, the Registrant's roofing products business grants extended
payment terms to certain customers for some product shipments during the late
winter and early spring months, with payment due during the summer months. As of
June 30, 1995, $884,000 in receivables relating to such shipments were
outstanding, with payments due primarily in July 1995.
Seasonal Business.
The Registrant's industrial products businesses are substantially
nonseasonal. However, the Registrant's roofing products manufacturing business
is seasonal to the extent that cold, wet or icy weather conditions during the
late fall and winter months in its marketing area typically cause sales to
decrease during such periods. Working capital requirements and related
borrowings fluctuate during the year because of seasonality. Generally, working
capital requirements and borrowings are higher in the spring and summer months,
and lower in the fall and winter months.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
GAF Patent Litigation
In February 1994, Elk Corporation of Dallas (Elk of Dallas) was granted a
design patent covering the ornamental aspects of its High Definition(R) and
Raised Profile(TM) shingles. In December 1994, Elk of Dallas was granted a
utility patent on the functional aspects of the High Definition and Raised
Profile shingles. Elk of Dallas filed lawsuits in federal court in Dallas,
Texas, against GAF Building Materials Corporation and related entities
(collectively, GAF) for infringement of these patents. Elk of Dallas contends
that the GAF Timberline(R) Natural Shadow(TM) and Timberline Ultra(R) Natural
Shadow(TM) shingles infringe the patents. In the design patent case, Elk of
Dallas seeks to recover as damages the total profit that GAF has made from the
infringing shingles. In the utility patent case, Elk of Dallas seeks to recover
as damages a reasonable royalty on GAF's sales of infringing shingles and
certain lost profits. Elk of Dallas in its actions has also sought to enjoin
GAF from making or selling infringing shingles. In the design patent case, GAF
filed a motion to bifurcate the issue of liability from that of damages. On
August 21, 1995, the court denied GAF's motion.
GAF seeks a declaratory judgement that the Elk patents are not infringed
and are either invalid or unenforceable. GAF has also asserted claims for
alleged unfair competition, Lanham Act violations based on alleged false
advertising, and common law fraud, generally praying for damages of not less
than $25 million, including actual and punitive damages, plus interest, costs,
and reasonable attorneys' fees. Elk of Dallas disputes GAF's claims, and
management intends vigorously to defend them.
The parties are engaged in discovery and pretrial motion practice. The
design patent case is set for trial on May 6, 1996. The utility patent case is
set for trial on September 16, 1996. Management believes Elk's position is
meritorious and intends vigorously to enforce its intellectual property rights.
No assurances regarding the outcome of these cases may be given, but their
outcome is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Registrant's
results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.
Frontier Chemical Site
Certain facilities of the Registrant's subsidiaries ship waste products to
various waste disposal facilities for disposal. In May 1993, Chromium received a
Notification Letter from the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(USEPA) informing Chromium that USEPA had reason to believe that Chromium was a
Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) at the Frontier Chemical Royal
Avenue Site (Site), a state-permitted waste processing and management facility
located on 9.7 acres in Niagara Falls, New York. After receiving shipments from
PRP's, the facility was closed by state regulators leaving all products shipped
there on-site. USEPA identified 438 generators, including Chromium,
9
<PAGE> 11
as being responsible for Phase I of the response action. Phase I involved
primarily the removal of 4,086 drums from the Site. Chromium is alleged to have
sent 96 drums of waste to the Site.
In September 1993, Chromium entered into an Administrative Order on Consent
with USEPA without admitting any liability or USEPA findings or determinations.
Chromium agreed along with the other parties to the order to perform Phase I
response activities at the Site and to reimburse USEPA for response costs
incurred by USEPA at the Site. All of the PRP drums were removed from the
Frontier Chemical Royal Avenue Site. The work was concluded in May 1994 and the
PRP group of which Chromium was a part filed its final report on May 30, 1995.
Chromium was assessed a total of $109,250 under the final assessment dated July
7, 1995, an additional amount of approximately $21,000 above what it had already
paid. The assessment was based on an estimated total cost of approximately $4
million. Chromium's total obligation cannot be calculated until its PRP group
can determine what portion of its assessments are uncollectible.
Phase II of the response action involves the removal of waste from process
tanks at the Site. USEPA has issued Notice Letters to additional PRPs for Phase
II. To date, the Company has not been named as a PRP in Phase II. Estimated
costs have been provided for Phase II but have not been provided for any
additional phases of cleanup.
Management of the Company believes that the final disposition of this
matter will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated results of
operations, financial position, or liquidity of the Registrant.
Chromium/TWC Settlement
In October 1991, the Texas Water Commission ("TWC") sent Chromium a Notice
of Executive Director's Preliminary Report and Petition for a TWC Order
Assessing administrative Penalties and Requiring Certain Actions of Chromium
(the "Petition"). This Petition alleged several violations of TWC rules and
recommended that Chromium be assessed $134,800 in penalties and ordered to
perform technical, procedural, assessment and remedial activities at Chromium's
Lufkin, Texas facility only ("Technical Recommendations"). Chromium timely
answered this notice and negotiated an Agreed Order in settlement of this case,
which the Commission executed on May 19, 1993. Under the Agreed Order, $74,800
of Chromium's penalties will be deferred and forgiven contingent on completion
of the Technical Recommendations. The remaining $60,000 penalty is being paid in
installments over a three year period. Chromium already has complied with many
of the Technical Recommendations, and, working with the Texas Natural Resource
Conservation Commission ("TNRCC"), TWC's successor, will implement the remainder
on a schedule set forth in the Agreed Order.
Management believes that this settlement will not have a material adverse
effect on the consolidated results of operations, financial position, or
liquidity of the Registrant.
10
<PAGE> 12
Other
There are various other lawsuits and claims pending against the Registrant
and its subsidiaries arising in the ordinary course of their business. In the
opinion of the Registrant's management based in part on advice of counsel, none
of these actions should have a material adverse effect on the Registrant's
consolidated results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.

FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS

In fiscal 1995, we successfully implemented several strategic moves which have
strengthened our foundation for growth in sales and earnings in the years
ahead. It was an especially important year for our core Roofing Products
business. Successful introduction of and strong demand for our new Enhanced
High Definition Prestique I and Prestique Plus and our new Raised Profile
Prestique II premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles were major factors
in boosting fourth quarter sales by 19% over the prior year period. Our new
Shafter, California plant was in start-up operations near the end of the fiscal
year, and construction of our new nonwoven fiberglass mat facility at Ennis,
Texas continues on schedule for start-up in the spring of 1996. Our Industrial
Products Group achieved a strong turnaround in both sales and profitability,
and the outlook is good for further improvement in the years ahead. The $80
million capital investment program begun in 1993 should also make major
contributions to future earnings growth.
FISCAL 1995 RESULTS
While fiscal 1995 results were among our best, earnings were below the record
levels of the last two fiscal years. Fiscal 1995 became a transition year for
our core Roofing Products business. When several modest price increases
implemented by Elk exceeded those of its competitors and supply caught up with
demand, we began to lose some volume in the June and September quarters of
1994. In order to restore volume levels, we adjusted our price premiums to
smaller amounts above competitors' prices for similar types of products. This
action, together with the introduction of our substantially enhanced product
lines, boosted sales volumes to record levels in the June 1995 quarter.
However, these pricing adjustments and higher transportation costs were the
principal reasons that kept fiscal 1995 sales and earnings below the record
levels of the last two fiscal years. On the plus side, Elk implemented three
modest price increases during the March through July 1995 period which offset
the impact of increased asphalt and fiberglass raw material costs.
Fiscal 1995 results benefitted from a turnaround executed by our Industrial
Products group. Its fiscal year sales were up 16% from last year, while
operating profit of $2.1 million represented a $4.9 million improvement from a
$2.8 million loss last year.
For the fourth quarter ending June 30, 1995, Elcor's sales rose 19% to
$46,795,000 from $39,256,000 last year. Income from continuing operations and
net income were $3,621,000, or $.41 per share, compared to $4,918,000, or $.55
per share, in the year-ago quarter.
For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995, sales were $159,061,000, compared
to $157,031,000 in fiscal 1994. Income from continuing operations and net income
were $9,558,000, or $1.08 per share, compared with income from continuing
operations of $15,571,000, or $1.75 per share, and net income of $14,745,000, or
$1.65 per share, in the prior fiscal year.
FINANCIAL POSITION
Elcor's financial position remains strong. During fiscal 1995, net cash flows
from continuing operating activities more than tripled to $20.2 million from
$6.0 million last year, primarily as a result of working capital changes. At
June 30, 1995, the company had $18.4 million of long-term debt, $93.6 million
of shareholders' equity, and $112 million of total capital. Long-term debt, as
a percent of total capital, was a modest 16%, and shareholders' equity was more
than five times greater than long-term debt. In fiscal 1995, capital
expenditures were $42.4 million, compared to $17.2 million last year. The
current ratio was a strong 2.5 to 1 at June 30, 1995.

================================================================================
NEW FACILITIES
Our new Shafter, California laminated shingle plant was in start-up operations
and began shipping limited quantities of Elk Prestique II Raised Profile
shingles during the fourth quarter. The new plant should boost our total
production capacity by more than 65% when operating at design levels. In
addition, fabrication of production equipment and construction activities are
progressing well for Elk's new nonwoven fiberglass mat production facility at
our Ennis, Texas plant. This additional production line will be capable of
producing about 7.5 billion square feet per year (75 million squares per year)
of high quality nonwoven fiberglass mats, which will more than triple our
current capacity. Also, the new production facility will allow the existing
facilities to be committed to higher-margin specialty nonwoven mat products and
to the development of new products.
BUSINESS STRATEGIES
The strategic moves and investments we are making are consistent with our goals
for growth and our business strategies which guide how we conduct our business
to create greater value for our shareholders. Elcor's business strategy is to
develop niche markets where we can be a leader. In each case, we will use our
technical strengths to create products and services having superior features
and benefits which can be sold at premium prices and to develop new production
processes and systems to maintain our position as a low-cost producer. By
differentiating our products and services and by using our marketing and
selling strengths, we secure premium prices consistent with the superior value
of our products and services. We strongly emphasize continuous improvement in
all aspects of our businesses to assure continuing success in the future.
OUTLOOK
Opportunities for growth are excellent throughout the company. The $80 million
investment program we began in 1993 will start to contribute to earnings in the
year ahead and will be a major contributor in the future. Other growth plans
are now in the early stages of development. For example, in about three or four
years, we believe the growing demand for our company's premium roofing products
will provide an attractive investment opportunity for building a new laminated
shingle plant in the northeast quadrant of the United States. At this time, a
new plant similar to our Shafter, California plant would cost about $45
million. Our strong financial position and cash flow should support our
aggressive growth plans.
The new Shafter, California plant is expected to cross the break-even point
toward the end of the year ahead. Based on current market conditions, we expect
improvements throughout the company should enable us to report growing sales and
earnings for fiscal year 1996.
On behalf of our Board of Directors, I wish to express our appreciation to
all employees for their commitment to achieve our objectives, and to our
customers, vendors and communities for their support and assistance during the
year.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
================================================================================
IN ASSESSING ELCOR'S EXCELLENT GROWTH PROSPECTS, INVESTMENT PROFESSIONALS
FREQUENTLY RAISED THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS REGARDING THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS AND
OUTLOOK. HERE'S HOW WE RESPONDED:
Q. WITH YOUR STRONG FINANCIAL POSITION, WILL YOU CONSIDER RESUMING CASH DIVIDEND
PAYMENTS?
A. Elcor's regular quarterly cash dividend payments were suspended in 1991,
following payment of 62 consecutive quarterly cash dividends. Since then, the
Board of Directors has regularly reevaluated its dividend policy, taking into
consideration the company's financial position, as well as financial resources
that may be needed to pursue attractive growth opportunities and to improve
shareholder values. The Board realizes that many shareholders would favor a
resumption of quarterly cash dividends and is reviewing the dividend question
each quarter.
Q. HOW DOES ELK MARKET ITS PRODUCTS?
A. Elk Prestique shingles are primarily sold to roofing wholesale supply houses.
Most roofing contractors deal with roofing wholesale supply houses because they
carry all the supplies, tools, equipment, materials and provide services that
the contractors need. Elk's District Sales Managers also work closely with
roofing contractors, builders and architects to create strong brand loyalty for
our products. In addition, Elk conducts extensive seminars for roofing
contractors and distributors to keep them up-to-date on Elk Prestique's superior
features and benefits.
[CHART]
***************************************************************************
* *
* CAPTION: About 80% of asphalt shingles are used to replace existing *
* roofs, and only about 20% are used in new construction. Roofs are now *
* being replaced about every 17 years. So, even though housing starts *
* were declining in the latter 1980's, asphalt shipments continued *
* growing. *
* *
***************************************************************************
Q. WHAT LEVELS OF CAPITAL EXPENDITURES ARE EXPECTED FOR YOUR FISCAL YEARS 1996
AND 1997?
A. Presently, capital expenditures for these periods are expected to be about
$28 million and $7 million, respectively.
Q. WHY ARE ELK PRESTIQUE SHINGLES REGARDED AS THE PREMIUM CHOICE?
A. Many customers tell us that Elk provides consistently superior quality
products and services, plus Elk more frequently differentiates its products, so
they always provide some of the best looking roofs in the industry. These
customers say that they consider Elk Prestique products the best buy, because
they provide significantly more value, even though Elk Prestique products
command a higher price than competitive products.
Q. HOW WILL ELK'S RESULTS BE AFFECTED BY FORECASTS OF LOWER HOUSING STARTS FOR
CALENDAR YEAR 1995?
A. Moderately lower housing starts in 1995 are not expected to affect Elk's
results for two reasons: (1) We understand that the reduction in forecasted
housing starts is expected in the starter home category, which normally would
not use premium laminated shingles; and (2) Since the spring of 1995, the strong
demand for Elk Prestique products has made it necessary to allocate supply to
customers.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<PAGE> 7
================================================================================
Q. HOW MUCH OF THE COMPANY'S PERFORMANCE IS DEPENDENT ON RESULTS OF SEVERE
WEATHER ACTIVITY?
A. Severe storms with large hail can cause significant damage to roofs, as do
hurricanes. The repair or replacement of roofs damaged by major storms in large
populated areas often takes from 12 to 18 months to complete. In recent years,
Elk has not directly benefited from the increased demand created by such storms
because Elk's customers were already on allocation before the storm demand
developed. However, Elk may benefit from better pricing during periods when
demand is greater than the industry's ability to supply. In future years, Elk
should be in a better position to take advantage of such increases in demand
because our new Shafter plant will increase our production capacity by over 65%.
Q. HOW IS CHROMIUM PROGRESSING, AND WHAT IS ITS OUTLOOK?
A. Chromium executed a strong turnaround in fiscal 1995 with sales up 28% and a
$5.4 million improvement in operating profits. We expect continued improvement
in Chromium's results in the year ahead.
Q. WHAT IS THE STATUS OF THE PATENT LITIGATION BETWEEN ELK AND GAF?
A. Three separate actions in Federal Court involving our patent dispute with GAF
are still pending. These patents are important to Elk, so it is pursuing the
litigation vigorously. The litigation is not expected to be resolved for some
time.
[CHART]
***************************************************************************
* *
* CAPTION: During the last decade, industry shipments of premium *
* laminated shingles have grown at a compound rate of 18% per year from *
* 5.4 million squares, or 6.8% of the total asphalt shingle market in *
* 1984, to 28.1 million squares, or 23.4% of the total asphalt shingle *
* market in 1994. *
* *
***************************************************************************
Q. HOW DOES ELK DIFFERENTIATE ITSELF FROM ITS COMPETITORS?
A. Elk focuses all its resources on the premium laminated niche in the market.
This has enabled Elk to become the technological leader in the development and
successful introduction of both new products and new manufacturing technologies
which have made Elk one of the low-cost producers in the industry. In addition,
Elk has developed advanced automation and process controls that assure the
production of consistently high quality products. Superior quality and service,
combined with value added marketing and sales programs, have enabled Elk to
command higher prices for its Elk Prestique products than competitors receive
for similar types of products.
Q. HOW MUCH OF A STAKE DO MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES HAVE IN THE SUCCESS OF THE
COMPANY?
A. Officers and directors own about 18% of the total outstanding stock, and our
employees own about 8% of the stock through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan.
Over 80% of our employees are shareholders.
Q. WHY IS DEMAND FOR LAMINATED SHINGLES GROWING SO RAPIDLY?
A. On average, homes need a new roof about every 17 years. If one homeowner in a
neighborhood installs a laminated shingle roof, the neighbors generally follow
suit because the laminated shingle roof looks so much nicer than the other
asphalt shingle roofs. Time and again, throughout the country, we see entire
neighborhoods convert to laminated shingle roofs in this fashion.
Q. WHO ARE YOUR COMPETITORS IN THE PREMIUM LAMINATED FIBERGLASS ASPHALT SHINGLE
BUSINESS?
A. Significant competitors include GAF, GS Roofing, Tamko and Owens Corning
Fiberglas and, to a lesser degree, Celotex, CertainTeed, Atlas and Bird.

INVESTING FOR GROWTH
================================================================================
Elcor's financial strength and resources have positioned Elk to take advantage
of excellent growth opportunities in our core business, where industry
shipments of premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles have grown at an 18%
compound annual rate over the last decade. To better serve its customers, Elk
is investing about $80 million in two new plants to keep up with the market
growth and to further improve its competitive position. When these new
facilities are operating near capacity, they should have the potential to
substantially increase Elk's earnings and cash flow and further strengthen
Elcor's financial position.

PRODUCTION UNDERWAY AT NEW SHAFTER, CALIFORNIA PLANT
Elk's new Shafter, California premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingle
manufacturing plant began start-up operations with limited production of Elk's
patented Raised Profile look Prestique II shingles this spring. Customer
acceptance of this new product has been excellent, and the large volume of
orders for these shingles has out-paced our ability to supply customers' needs
during this start-up period.
The new plant is situated on an 85-acre site with ample room to optimize
material flow in the production process. The use of sophisticated automation and
process control systems will assure consistent production of superior quality
products at the lowest production costs. This major new plant will increase
Elk's laminated shingle manufacturing capacity by more than 65%. Elk's patented
Enhanced High Definition look Prestique I and Prestique Plus laminated shingles
and its proprietary Z ridge hip and ridge shingles will also be produced at the
Shafter plant.
The Shafter facility will primarily service customers in California and
other Western States, where premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles are
rapidly replacing existing wood shingled roofs as well as many commodity asphalt
shingled roofs. In the Western States, the laminated shingle market has grown at
a compound rate of more than 20% per year during the last decade and has
steadily increased the laminated share of the total asphalt shingle market. The
new Shafter plant will have the capacity to satisfy continuing growth in demand
in the Western States market for high quality laminated shingles. As Shafter
production levels rise, Elk's Ennis, Texas plant will be able to better serve
the rapidly growing demand of its customers in the Southwestern, Midwestern and
Northern States.

CONSTRUCTION OF ELK'S NEW NONWOVEN FIBERGLASS MAT MANUFACTURING FACILITY
UNDERWAY
Elk's new $35 million state-of-the-art nonwoven fiberglass mat manufacturing
facility should be completed by the spring of 1996 at Elk's Ennis, Texas plant.
The new facilities will be installed in parallel to Elk's existing nonwoven
fiberglass mat manufacturing facilities.
[MAP]
This new plant will have the capacity to produce about 7.5 billion square
feet per year (75 million squares per year) of high quality nonwoven fiberglass
mats, having significantly improved physical properties. The new plant will more
than triple Elk's nonwoven manufacturing capacity and will supply all of Elk's
internal needs for nonwoven fiberglass mat roofing substrate materials. In
addition, the new plant will manufacture industrial facer products for the
construction industry and will supply nonwoven fiberglass mat roofing substrate
materials to other manufacturers of roofing products.
This major expansion of Elk's nonwoven fiberglass mat capacity should be
especially timely, as we are entering a period when the expected demand for
nonwoven fiberglass roofing mat substrates may exceed the industry's capacity.
This will be the first new nonwoven fiberglass mat plant built in over a decade.
During this period, total consumption of fiberglass mats for roofing shingles
increased about 55%. For the last few years, quality fiberglass mats have been
in short supply during the peak roofing seasons. The new Elk facility should
have ample capacity to supply Elk's growing needs, as well as the growing needs
of the industry. It will be capable of producing nonwoven fiberglass mats with
superior physical properties at lower conversion cost. When the plant comes on
line, the existing nonwoven fiberglass mat plant at Ennis will concentrate on
expanding our growing specialty nonwoven materials business serving other
industries and on developing new nonwoven products.
The superior physical properties of the nonwoven fiberglass mat roofing
substrates to be manufactured by the new plant will further enhance Elk's
competitive position in the rapidly growing premium laminated fiberglass asphalt
shingle niche. When the new nonwoven fiberglass mat plant is operating near its
design capacity in the years ahead, it should be able to produce products valued
at more than $80 million per year.

ROOFING PRODUCTS
================================================================================
Roofing Products shipments surged to record levels in the fourth quarter of
fiscal year 1995. Strong demand for Elk Prestique premium laminated fiberglass
asphalt shingles with the patented new Enhanced High Definition and Raised
Profile look, combined with modest price increases in March and June, boosted
sales for the quarter to record levels. However, lower volume and lower prices
in the first half kept fiscal 1995 sales of $139 million slightly below the
prior year sales of $139.7 million. Fiscal 1995 operating profits of $18
million were significantly lower than $31.4 million last year, primarily as a
result of lower prices and higher transportation costs. The Roofing Products
Group accounted for 87% of Elcor's sales and 90% of Elcor's operating profit in
fiscal 1995.
FISCAL 1995 -- A TRANSITION YEAR
Following five modest price increases over the last two fiscal years, when its
roofing products customers were on allocation from March 1992 to March 1994,
this core business finally found the point at which price began to limit
volume, and volume decreased somewhat in the June and September 1994 quarters.
During the first half of fiscal 1995, Elk implemented pricing revisions which
basically brought its product prices back into a range of about four to seven
percent higher than competitors' prices for similar types of products.
In addition, Elk rolled out a significant enhancement of its Prestique
shingles with the patented High Definition look, and introduced a new Prestique
II mid-weight laminated fiberglass asphalt shingle with the patented Raised
Profile look. With Elk's pricing premium restored to normal levels, volume
picked up to record levels in the fourth quarter.
Elk's new major laminated fiberglass asphalt shingle manufacturing plant in
Shafter, California is designed to have the highest capacity and one of the
lowest manufacturing costs in the industry for producing premium laminated
fiberglass asphalt shingles. Start-up operations at the plant began during the
latter part of the March quarter, and limited quantities of Prestique II Raised
Profile shingles were shipped in June 1995.
Continuing strong demand for Elk Prestique products, combined with
increasing production volumes from the new Shafter plant, should boost results
in fiscal 1996 and the years ahead.
MARKET OVERVIEW
Asphalt shingles have long been the most favored roofing product in the United
States and comprise about 89% of the total sloped roof shingle market. In 1994,
it is estimated that about 80% of asphalt shingles were used to reroof existing
homes and about 20% of asphalt shingles were used for roofing newly constructed
homes. In recent years, roofs have been replaced about every 16 to 17 years on
average, and most wood shingled roofs are replaced about every 10 to 14 years.
Laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles have become a popular choice for
reroofing wood shingled homes because they provide a similar look and are much
safer than most wood shingles due to their superior fire resistance qualities.
In fact, laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles carry the highest rating given by
Underwriters Laboratory for resisting flame spread. Much of the upscale housing
stock in the Western and Southwestern States from Texas to the West Coast have
wood shingled roofs, creating a large existing housing base with wood shingled
roofs that will likely use the safer premium laminated fiberglass asphalt
shingles as they are reroofed over a period of years. In addition, fiberglass
laminated asphalt shingles offer a much better value than wood shingles and are
also replacing commodity single-ply asphalt shingles in many areas. Laminated
fiberglass asphalt shingles are one of the fastest growing segments of the
asphalt shingle market, having grown at a compound annual growth rate of 18.0%
over the last decade and accounting for 23.4% of the total asphalt shingles
shipped in 1994.

NEW PRODUCTS
For over 15 years, Elk has been a leader in successfully developing and
introducing new and enhanced laminated fiberglass asphalt shingle products. Elk
is the only company in the industry that focuses all its resources on the
premium laminated shingle niche. Elk's strategy is to frequently differentiate
its products as a part of providing added value to its customers. In recent
years, demand for many of its new products has been so strong that Elk has had
difficulty supplying all of its customers' needs. In fact, it has been
necessary for Elk to allocate available supplies of its Prestique products to
customers in three of the last four years. Strong demand for Elk's Prestique
laminated shingles, combined with overall strong demand and growth in the
laminated shingle segment of the market will provide an opportunity for Elk to
boost its overall manufacturing capacity for laminated shingles by 65% with the
new Shafter, California plant.
New Elk Prestique products successfully introduced to the market during
fiscal 1995 include:
PRESTIQUE PLUS ENHANCED HIGH DEFINITION -- Elk's new super heavyweight
premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingle is designed for customers who
demand the very best. The patented new Enhanced High Definition look offers the
most impressive dimensionality in the industry. Prestique Plus provides the
thickness and visual feel of wood, with the safety and durability of fiberglass,
and is covered by Elk's 40-year limited warranty.
PRESTIQUE I ENHANCED HIGH DEFINITION -- This heavyweight premium laminated
fiberglass asphalt shingle features Elk's new patented Enhanced High Definition
look, for natural visual depth and shadows much like wood shingles. Prestique I
is the premium roofing product that offers affordability, and it is backed by
Elk's 30-year limited warranty.
PRESTIQUE II RAISED PROFILE -- Elk's laminated fiberglass asphalt
mid-weight shingle is the ideal way to upgrade for a modest price. The new
patented Raised Profile look creates a richer dimensional appearance, providing
an expensive look for little more than the cost of regular commodity single-ply
three tab asphalt shingles. Prestique II is covered by Elk's 25-year limited
warranty.
Other new products successfully introduced by Elk over the last two fiscal
years include:
CAPSTONE SHINGLES -- Capstone is one of the newest premium roofing products
from Elk, designed for homes with more prominent steep roofs. Offered in two
unique color blends, Capstone creates an indelible impression of deep shadows.
Elk backs Capstone with its Umbrella Coverage, a 30-year limited warranty with
transfer option. Capstone has its own ridge product as well, to make a roof look
even more distinctive.
PRESTIQUE HIGH DEFINITION ROOF ACCESSORY PAINT -- Prestique High Definition
roof accessory paint is designed to help vents, and other accessories blend in
with the roof. Sold in easy-to-use spray paint cans, it is formulated in six
colors, which complement the subtle hues of Prestique shingles.
For the finishing touches on a beautiful new Prestique roof, two other Elk
products are very popular:
Z RIDGE -- Z ridge premium hip and ridge shingles put an end to boring roof
lines. Elk's unique multi layer design adds a distinctive finishing touch to a
roof with an Ultra-Mat reinforced fiberglass base that resists rotting, warping
and curling, and Z ridge keeps hips and ridges snug and attractive.
SEAL-A-RIDGE PLUS -- Seal-a-Ridge Plus hip and ridge shingles provide extra
protection against leaks and wind blow-offs. They are 12" x 12", the perfect
size for standard ridges and to cover ridge vents. With an Ultra-Mat reinforced
fiberglass base to resist rotting, warping and curling, Seal-a-Ridge Plus forms
a wind and rain resistant cover.

INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS
================================================================================
The Industrial Products Group achieved a strong turnaround in fiscal 1995.
Sales rose 16% to $20 million from $17.2 million in the prior year. In fiscal
1995, operating income improved $4.9 million to $2.1 million, compared with a
$2.8 million loss in the year-ago period. The Industrial Products group
accounted for 13% of Elcor's sales and 10% of Elcor's operating profit in
fiscal 1995.

***************************************************************************
CHROMIUM CORPORATION
Chromium Corporation is a technological and quality leader in plating certain
proprietary finishes for large diesel engine components and plastic enclosures
for telecommunications and other electronic equipment.
Chromium is the sole supplier of original equipment hard chrome plated
diesel engine cylinder liners and is the major supplier of tin-plated pistons to
the domestic locomotive manufacturers. Chromium also has a dominant position in
remanufacturing these diesel engine components for the railroad, marine and
stationary power industries. The strengthened economy in fiscal 1995 boosted
railroad demand for both remanufactured diesel engine cylinder liners and
pistons, as well as very large cylinder liners for the stationary power
industry. In addition, Chromium experienced strong growth in demand for its
remanufactured electron beam welded liners in domestic and international
markets.
During fiscal 1995, Chromium completed the consolidation of its diesel
engine cylinder liner business at its Lufkin, Texas plant, while the Cleveland,
Ohio plant focused its resources on remanufacturing large diesel engine pistons
and water jackets.
Strong demand for its high quality large diesel engine components, combined
with productivity improvements and better pricing, enabled Chromium to achieve a
strong turnaround in this portion of its business.
Chromium's Conductive Coatings Division also saw strong growth in demand
for its COMPUSHIELD process. COMPUSHIELD is a chemical coating for plastic
electronic enclosures which can substantially reduce the emission of
electromagnetic and radio frequency interference given off by microchips and
components. COMPUSHIELD is now being used in a wide variety of consumer, retail
and industrial applications, such as telecommunications, computer peripherals,
medical electronics, aerospace and other electronic equipment. A substantial
increase in the number of customers and applications, plus higher volume and
productivity, contributed to a strong turnaround in this area of Chromium's
business as well.
ORTLOFF ENGINEERS
Ortloff Engineers continues as a leader in the development and licensing of
state-of-the-art patented technology for the cryogenic processing of refinery
and natural gas streams and sulfur recovery processes; and in performing
conceptual plant design consulting engineering services for the petroleum
industry. Ortloff Engineers licenses Elcor's ten leading edge patents pertaining
to the recovery of higher value components, such as ethane and propane, from
natural gas and refinery gas streams, primarily for use as petrochemical
feedstocks. During fiscal 1995, strong emphasis was placed on developing new
cryogenic processing technology to assure that Ortloff Engineers maintains and
extends its leadership position in these markets. Three new patent applications
were filed in fiscal 1995, and work is continuing on additional applications to
be filed in fiscal 1996. These patented processes can provide superior returns
on investment compared to alternative processes. During the last two and
one-half years, more than 80% of the turbo-expander plant projects contracted in
North America that we have identified have used Elcor's patented technology. At
the present time, the outlook continues to be good in both domestic and foreign
markets for licensing Elcor's technology in new gas processing facilities, as
well as updating existing cryogenic facilities to increase efficiency and
effectiveness in the recovery of natural gas liquids.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FISCAL 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1994
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, income from continuing operations
decreased to $9,558,000 from the $15,571,000 achieved in the prior fiscal year
despite a 1% increase in sales in fiscal 1995. Increased sales and a
significant turnaround in operating results in the Industrial Products Group
were offset by slightly lower sales and lower operating profit for the Roofing
Products Group. Fiscal year 1994 included a $1,494,000 loss relating to its
discontinued solid waste baler manufacturing subsidiary and a $668,000 gain
from adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes."
Sales for the Roofing Products Group were slightly lower in fiscal 1995 than
for fiscal 1994 despite a 6% increase in shipments of premium laminated
fiberglass asphalt shingles in fiscal 1995. Average selling prices were 5% lower
in the current fiscal year. Operating profit in fiscal 1995 was $18,015,000
compared to $31,415,000 in the prior year. Late in the first quarter of fiscal
1995, the Company introduced Elk Prestique premium laminated fiberglass asphalt
shingle product lines with the patented new Enhanced High Definition and Raised
Profile look. The higher cost of introducing these new products, together with
pricing adjustments, higher transportation costs and lower production to reduce
inventory levels during the seasonally slower winter months significantly
reduced operating results during fiscal 1995 as compared to the prior year.
Revenues for the Industrial Products Group increased 16% in fiscal year 1995
to $19,960,000 from $17, 198,000 in the prior fiscal year. Increased sales
volume was achieved for many of Chromium Corporation's product lines, including
hard chrome plated diesel engine cylinder liners and remanufactured pistons for
the railroad, marine and stationary power industries and conductive coatings of
plastic enclosures for electronic equipment. An operating profit of $2,099,000
was achieved by the Industrial Products Group in fiscal 1995 compared to a
$2,804,000 operating loss in the prior year as a result of higher sales volumes
and reduced operating costs at Chromium. Costs of $1,706,000 incurred in
connection with a closed Chromium plant were included in the prior year
operating loss for the Industrial Products Group. Operating income from
consulting and licensing of patents in the cryogenic processing of natural gas
and refinery gas streams by Ortloff Engineers was lower in fiscal 1995 than in
the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased 9% during
fiscal 1995 as compared to the prior year, primarily as a result of increased
selling and marketing expenses in the Roofing Products Group due to increased
promotional activities and establishing a larger sales organization to better
serve growing markets. As a percentage of sales, SG&A costs were 17% in fiscal
1995 compared to 16% in fiscal 1994.
FISCAL 1994 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1993
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994, income from continuing
operations of $15,571,000 exceeded by 1% the $15,366,000 amount achieved in the
prior fiscal year. Sales decreased by 3% in fiscal 1994 compared to the prior
year. Increased sales and higher operating margins for the core Roofing Products
Group were offset by significantly reduced demand and lower operating results
for the Industrial Products Group.
On March 31, 1994, the Company completed the sale of substantially all
operating assets of its solid waste baler manufacturing subsidiary. This
discontinued business was disposed of at a $82,000 net loss after reporting
$1,412,000 in operating losses for the year, compared to a $606,000 net
operating loss in the prior fiscal year. Fiscal year 1994 included a $668,000
gain from adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." Net income for fiscal year 1993 included
$3,017,000 of extraordinary income related to tax loss carryforwards, which were
fully utilized in that fiscal year.
Sales for the Roofing Products Group increased 2% in fiscal 1994 compared to
the prior year primarily as a result of increased prices. Product demand was
very strong during the summer and fall months of the current fiscal year before
returning to a historically normal seasonal slowdown in demand for roofing
products in certain markets during the winter months. Although industry
shipments in the quarter ended June 30, 1994 were up 18% from the same quarter
in fiscal 1993, shipments of the Company's premium laminated fiberglass shingles
were lower. During fiscal years 1994 and 1993 the Company implemented five
general price increases, which were only partially followed by competitors. Some
of the fiscal 1994 increases began to limit volume. Operating profit for fiscal
1994 improved to $31,415,000 compared to $29,335,000 in fiscal 1993. Improved
margins throughout the year were primarily the result of higher prices, together
with increased manufacturing effectiveness and plant utilization.
Revenue for the Industrial Products Group declined 29% in fiscal 1994 to
$17,198,000 from $24,152,000 in the prior fiscal year. Sales at Chromium
Corporation were adversely affected by reduced demand for its electron
beam-welded cylinder liners and changing requirements of some Conductive
Coatings Division customers. The $2,804,000 operating loss was significantly
higher than the prior year loss of $307,000 as a result of reduced sales,
together with $1,706,000 in charges incurred in connection with the closed
Chicago plant. Operating income from consulting and licensing of patents in the
cryogenic processing of natural gas and refinery gas streams by Ortloff
Engineers was slightly lower than the prior year level.

<PAGE> 17
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased 9% during
fiscal 1994 as compared to fiscal 1993, primarily as a result of increased sales
and marketing promotional activities in the Roofing Products Group. As a
percentage of sales, SG&A costs were 16% in fiscal 1994 compared to 14% in
fiscal 1993.
The Company had no debt during fiscal 1994. Interest income was generated by
investing the Company's available cash resources. Interest expense in fiscal
1994 represents commitment fees paid on the Company's revolving line of credit.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's financial position at June 30, 1995 remains very strong. Total
invested capital of the Company (long-term debt plus shareholders' equity) was
$112,016,000 at June 30, 1995. Long-term debt represented only 16% of total
capitalization. In October 1994, the Company increased its unsecured revolving
line of credit from $30 million to $50 million and extended the term to October
31, 1997. As of June 30, 1995, $29,318,000 was available under this facility.
On September 27, 1994, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the
purchase of up to $10 million of the Company's common shares from time to time
on the open market to be used for general corporate purposes, including employee
stock compensation and benefit plans. As of June 30, 1995, 91,300 shares with
cumulative cost of $1,360,000 had been repurchased under this program.
Cash generated by continuing operating activities was $20,225,000, despite a
$6,013,000 reduction in income, primarily as a result of deferred taxes and a
$5,308,000 reduction in working capital (excluding cash and cash equivalents).
Lower inventory levels accounted for $5,192,000 of the reduction. Finished goods
inventories decreased from the unusually high levels at the prior year end that
occurred from lower than anticipated demand during the fourth quarter of fiscal
1994. However, raw materials inventory increased as a result of purchase
requirements for the new Shafter, California roofing plant. Despite a 19%
increase in fourth quarter net sales, receivables decreased $627,000 due to
lower deferred payment term receivables. At June 30, 1995, deferred payment term
receivables from promotional programs to certain customers were $884,000
compared to $7,157,000 in receivables from these programs at June 30, 1994.
The Company used $40,326,000 for investing activities in fiscal 1995.
Capital expenditures during fiscal 1995 were $42,388,000 and related deferred
preoperating expenses were $3,864,000. The majority of these expenditures relate
to the construction of a roofing plant in Shafter, California to manufacture
premium laminated fiberglass asphalt shingles, which is currently in startup,
together with beginning construction of a new plant at the Company's Ennis,
Texas facility to manufacture nonwoven fiberglass substrate materials and
industrial facer products for the construction industry. This new plant is
scheduled to start-up during the spring of 1996. Total capital expenditures for
the two new plants when completed are estimated to be about $80 million of which
about $45 million relates to the Shafter plant and $35 million relates to the
Ennis, Texas facility. Total cumulative capital expenditures have been
approximately $54 million on the two new plants to date. The new plants should
provide the potential to significantly increase the Company's sales, earnings
and cash flow when completed and operating at near capacity in the years ahead.
On April 24, 1995, the Company received $5,378,000 from the sale of its
investment in convertible preferred stock of Amdura Corporation.
Cash flows provided by financing activities were $17,229,000 as a result of
$18,400,000 in long-term borrowings under the $50 million unsecured line of
credit, offset primarily by funds used to acquire the Company's common stock
under the authorized repurchase program.
Historically, working capital and debt requirements fluctuate during the
year because of seasonality in some market areas. Generally, working capital
requirements and borrowings are higher in the spring and summer months, and
lower in the fall and winter months.
The Company's operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local
laws and regulations relating to environmental matters. Although the Company is
not aware of any requirements to expend amounts which will have a material
adverse affect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
operations by reason of environmental laws and regulations, such laws and
regulations are frequently changed and could result in significantly increased
cost of compliance. Further, certain of the Company's industrial products
operations utilize hazardous materials in their production processes. As a
result, the Company incurs costs for remediation activities at its facilities
from time to time. The Company established and maintains reserves for such
remediation activities when appropriate, in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies." Current
reserves established for known or probable remediation activities are not
material to the Company's financial position or results of operation.
Management believes that current cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from
operations and borrowings under its $50 million revolving credit facility should
be sufficient during fiscal 1996 and beyond to support its capital investment
plan, working capital needs, stock repurchases and other cash requirements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors,
Elcor Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Elcor
Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1995 and
1994, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and
shareholders' equity for each of the three years in the period ended June 30,
1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly in
all material respects, the financial position of Elcor Corporation and
subsidiaries as of June 30, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30,
1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements -- "Income Taxes," as required by generally accepted accounting
principles, effective July 1, 1993, the Company changed its method of accounting
for income taxes.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Management is responsible for the preparation, presentation, and reliability of
the financial information and representations contained in this annual report.
Management has prepared these financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. In preparing the statements and notes, estimates
must necessarily be made based upon currently available information and
judgments of current conditions and circumstances.
To provide reasonable assurance of the reliability of the statements, the
Company depends upon its system of internal accounting controls and upon the
examination of the Company's financial statements by its independent public
accountants. The internal accounting controls are intended to assure that
transactions are executed in accordance with management authorization and
properly recorded to permit the preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Management recognizes
that errors or irregularities may occur under any control system, but it also
believes that material errors or irregularities in its financial information and
representations would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The Board of Directors pursues its responsibilities for the accompanying
financial statements through its Audit Committee, composed of Directors who are
not officers or employees of the Company. The Committee meets periodically with
both management and the independent auditors to assure that each is carrying out
its responsibilities. The independent auditors have full and free access to the
Audit Committee and regularly meet with it to discuss auditing and financial
reporting matters.

The Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements are an integral part of this statement.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Elcor Corporation
(the Company) and all subsidiaries after elimination of significant intercompany
balances and transactions. Service revenues and related expenses are not
disaggregated in the Consolidated Statement of Operations due to immateriality.
Certain prior year financial information has been reclassified for consistency
of presentation.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized at the time products are shipped to the customer or at the
time services are rendered.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The majority of the Company's sales are in the roofing products segment, whose
primary customers are distributors. During fiscal 1995, one customer accounted
for 11% of consolidated sales. No customer accounted for greater than 10% of
consolidated sales in 1994 or 1993. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations and maintains reserves for potential credit losses.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (including direct materials, labor,
and applicable overhead) or market, using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.
Inventories were comprised of:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
(In thousands)
June 30,
1995 1994
------- -------
<S> <C> <C>
Raw Materials $ 4,952 $ 3,325
Work-In-Process 658 807
Finished Goods 6,091 12,761
------- -------
$11,701 $16,893
======= =======
</TABLE>
If the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method had been used at June 30, 1995 and
1994, inventories would have been lower by $698,000 and $1,527,000,
respectively, primarily as a result of declining costs of certain raw materials
subsequent to the adoption of the LIFO method. The LIFO inventory adjustment was
determined on an overall basis and, accordingly, each class of inventory
reflects an allocation based on FIFO amounts.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals and
improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are expensed when
incurred. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of
depreciable assets using the straight-line method. The cost and accumulated
depreciation for property, plant and equipment sold, retired, or otherwise
disposed of are relieved from the accounts, and resulting gains or losses are
reflected in income. Preoperating and start-up costs incurred in connection with
the construction of major new manufacturing facilities are capitalized until
such facilities become operational. These costs are then amortized over a
five-year period. Preoperating and start-up costs are included in Other Assets.
Interest is capitalized in connection with the construction of major
facilities. The capitalized interest is recorded as part of the asset to which
it relates and is amortized over the asset's estimated useful life. In 1995,
$326,000 of interest cost was capitalized. No interest was capitalized in 1994
or 1993.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per common and common equivalent share are based on the weighted
average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding for the fiscal
year. Common equivalent shares include incentive stock options and were
calculated using the treasury stock method.
INCOME TAXES
Effective July 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" and reported the cumulative
effect of that accounting change in fiscal 1994. Deferred income taxes are
provided to reflect temporary differences between the financial reporting basis
and the tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities using presently
enacted tax rates.
SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOWS
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. Supplemental cash flow amounts were
as follows:

Income taxes paid $5,588 $7,130 $5,669
</TABLE>
In March 1994, the Company sold operating assets of a discontinued
subsidiary in exchange for $5,378,000 of convertible preferred stock. In April
1995, the Company received cash proceeds in full from the redemption of this
convertible preferred stock.

ELCOR CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LONG-TERM DEBT
Effective October 31, 1994, the Company amended its unsecured loan agreement
(Facility) to provide up to $50,000,000 of primary credit, including up to a
maximum of $5,000,000 in letters of credit, through October 31, 1997 with a
provision for annual extensions upon approval of the lender. At June 30, 1995,
letters of credit totaling $2,282,000 were outstanding.
Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at (1) the higher of the federal
funds rate plus .5% or the lender's prime rate, or (2) at the Company's option,
LIBOR, in each case plus specified basis points based on the ratio of the
Company's total indebtedness to total capital. The Facility also provides for a
commitment fee on the average unused portion of the line and is also based on
the ratio of the Company's total indebtedness to total capital. Based on current
financial ratios, the LIBOR borrowing rate is LIBOR plus .625% and the
commitment fee is .25% of the average unused portion of the line.
The agreement, among other things, limits the sale or pledging of assets of
subsidiaries involved in manufacturing asphalt roofing products, and requires
maintenance of specified current ratios, capitalization ratios and cash flow
levels. Dividend payments and stock repurchases are limited to certain specified
levels providing no default or event of default would occur. At June 30, 1995,
total cumulative dividend payments and stock repurchased since July 1, 1993
could not have exceeded $18,506,000. Actual expenditures for these items as of
June 30, 1995 were $1,360,000.
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Authorized common stock, par value $1.00, is 50,000,000 shares, of which
8,802,066 shares were issued at June 30, 1995 and 8,785,711 were issued at June
30, 1994. The Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares
of preferred stock, without par value, in one or more series and to determine
the rights, preferences, and restrictions applicable to each series. No
preferred stock has been issued.
On June 23, 1993, the Company issued 1,150,000 shares of common stock in a
public offering, receiving net proceeds of $30,350,000 primarily for use in
construction of a new roofing plant in California.
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
On June 28, 1988, the Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend
distribution of one Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Right (the Rights) on each
outstanding share of the Company's common stock as of July 8, 1988 and all
outstanding shares of common stock issued thereafter, pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Plan. The Rights, which will expire on July 8, 1998, will have
no voting power. Each Right will entitle the holder to buy one-hundredth of a
share of a new series of nonvoting preferred stock at an exercise price of $50.
On January 30, 1991, the Company's Board of Directors amended the Plan. As
amended, if certain events occur, Rights "flip-in" and entitle holders to buy
Elcor common stock at one-half market value or "flip-over" and entitle holders
to buy common stock in an acquiring entity at one-half market value. This
amendment reduces the threshold of beneficial ownership at which the Rights
separate from the common stock and flip-in, provides an exchange option
provision, and makes certain other modifications. The Rights will separate from
the associated shares of common stock and a flip-in event will now occur if a
person acquires 15% or more of the common stock of Elcor. Prior to the
amendment, the Rights did not separate from the common stock until a person
acquired 20% or more of the common stock of Elcor and, absent the occurrence of
other flip-in events, a flip-in event did not occur until a person acquired 30%
or more of the common stock of Elcor.
The exchange option provides that, at any time after any person becomes the
beneficial owner of 15% or more of the common stock and prior to the acquisition
by such person of 50% or more of the common stock, the Company's Board of
Directors may exchange the Rights (other than Rights owned by such person) at an
exchange ratio of one share of common stock per Right.
On December 5, 1991 the Rights Plan was amended to increase the threshold of
certain specified shareholders' permitted beneficial ownership from 15% to 20%
of the outstanding shares of common stock before triggering the provisions of
the Plan. The certain specified shareholders affected by this amendment are
limited to certain institutions holding stock for the benefit of third parties
or in customer or fiduciary accounts in the ordinary course of business so long
as such shares are acquired without the purpose or effect of changing or
influencing control of the Company.
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) became effective January
1, 1981. Under the Plan, the Company contributes a percentage of each
participant's annual compensation into a trust, either as treasury stock
contributions or cash, which is then used to purchase Elcor common stock.
Employees vest 20% after three years of employment and 20% per year thereafter,
with the stock distributed at retirement, death, disability, or as authorized by
the Plan Administrative Committee. Effective January 1, 1990, the Company
established an Employee Savings Plan under Internal Revenue Code section 401(k).
All employees, except those covered by plans established through collective
bargaining, are eligible for participation. Under this Plan, the Company
contributes a percentage of each participant's annual compensation into a Plan
to be invested among various defined alternatives at the participants'
direction. Vesting of Company contributions is in accordance with the same
schedule as that of the ESOP.
The Board of Directors has authorized total contributions of 4.6% of each
participant's annual compensation, as defined, including forfeitures, split
equally between the ESOP and 401(k) Plans. Total contributions charged to
expense for these Plans were $839,000, $973,000 and $926,000 in 1995,1994 and
1993, respectively.

The Company has a Stock/Loan Plan which allows certain key employees to
borrow an amount, based on a percentage of their salaries and the performance of
their operating units, for the purpose of purchasing the Company's common stock.
Under the Stock/Loan Plan, the loans, which are unsecured and
noninterest-bearing, are forgiven and amortized as compensation over five years
of continuing service with the Company. If employment is terminated for any
reason except death, disability or retirement, the balance of the loan becomes
due and payable. Loans outstanding at June 30, 1995 and 1994 totaling $1,315,000
and $1,408,000, respectively, are included in Other Assets.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company and its subsidiaries lease certain office space, facilities, and
equipment under operating leases, expiring on various dates through 2000. Total
rental expense was $1,117,000 in 1995, $1,032,000 in 1994, and $960,000 in 1993.
At June 30, 1995, future minimum rental commitments under noncancellable
operating leases, payable over the remaining lives of the leases, are:

The Company provides certain warranties for its products which are generally
limited to the products being free from defect in materials or workmanship or
meeting agreed-upon manufacturing and material specifications. During 1995,
1994, and 1993 the Company recorded expenses of approximately $1,462,000,
$1,441,000 and $2,672,000, respectively, in warranty claim settlements. The
Company has established reserves for estimated probable future claims in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, "Accounting
for Contingencies."
On February 8, 1994, a wholly owned subsidiary, Elk Corporation of Dallas
("Elk"), was granted a design patent covering the ornamental aspects of its High
Definition and Raised Profile shingles. On December 6, 1994, Elk was granted a
utility patent on the functional aspects of the High Definition and Raised
Profile shingles. Elk has sued GAF Building Materials Corporation and related
GAF entities (collectively "GAF") in federal court for infringement of both its
design patent and its utility patent. In the design patent case, Elk seeks to
recover as damages the total profit that GAF has made from sale of the
infringing shingles. In the utility patent case, Elk seeks to recover as damages
a reasonable royalty. In both cases, Elk seeks a permanent injunction
prohibiting GAF from making or selling its infringing shingles.
GAF has asserted claims against Elk seeking declaratory judgment that the
Elk patents are not infringed and are either invalid or unenforceable. GAF has
also asserted claims for unfair competition, violation of the Lanham Act, and
fraud, generally alleging damages of not less than $25 million. Elk disputes
GAF's claims, and management intends vigorously to defend itself against these
claims and to enforce its intellectual property rights.
The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in other legal actions and claims
arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on advice from legal counsel,
management believes such litigation and claims will be resolved without material
effect on the consolidated financial statements.
On December 1, 1985, the Company became self-insured for its products and
completed operations liability exposure because the cost of insurance for such
risks was believed to be excessive for the coverage to be provided. Reserves for
estimated potential losses of this type have been established.
The Company's operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local
laws and regulations relating to environmental matters. Although the Company
does not believe it will be required to expend amounts which will have a
material adverse affect on the Company's consolidated financial position or
results of operations by reason of environmental laws and regulations, such laws
and regulations are frequently changed and could result in significantly
increased cost of compliance. Further, certain of the Company's industrial
products operations utilize hazardous materials in their production processes.
As a result, the Company incurs costs for remediation activities at its
facilities from time to time. The Company establishes and maintains reserves for
such remediation activities, when appropriate, in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies."
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On March 31, 1994, the Company completed the sale of substantially all operating
assets of its solid waste baler manufacturing subsidiary. The Company retained
the real property of the subsidiary, which is being held for sale. At June 30,
1995, noncurrent assets of discontinued operations include $531,000 of assets
relating to the discontinued solid waste baler manufacturing business and
$6,644,000 relating to previously discontinued business segments. At June 30,
1994, the comparable balances were $536,000 for the discontinued solid waste
baler manufacturing business and $6,694,000 for previously discontinued
segments.
INVESTMENTS
In March 1994, the Company sold substantially all operating assets of its solid
waste baler manufacturing subsidiary in exchange for $5,378,000 of convertible
preferred stock of Amdura Corporation. On April 24, 1995, these securities were
sold pursuant to a tender offer by another company for Amdura Corporation's
common stock. There was no gain or loss to the Company on the sale of these
securities.

INCOME TAXES
Effective July 1, 1993 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." The cumulative effect of
adopting this change in accounting for income taxes was an increase in earnings
of $668,000 in fiscal 1994.
The statutory federal tax rate was 35% for fiscal years 1995 and 1994 and
34% for fiscal year 1993. The Company's effective tax rate was 37.5% in 1995,
37.8% in 1994 and 38.3% in 1993.
