FOSTER WHEELER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
(UNAUDITED)
1. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 1, 1994, and the
related condensed consolidated statements of earnings and cash flows for
the three and six month periods ended July 1, 1994 and June 25, 1993 are
unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a
fair presentation of such financial statements have been included. Such
adjustments only consisted of normal recurring items. Interim results are
not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q
and do not contain certain information included in the Corporation's 1993
Annual Report, Form 10-K filed March 25, 1994 which should be read in
conjunction with this report.
2. In the ordinary course of business the Corporation and its subsidiaries
enter into contracts providing for assessment of damages for
nonperformance or delays in completion. Suits and claims have been or may
be brought against the Corporation by customers alleging deficiencies in
either equipment design or plant construction. The Corporation and its
subsidiaries also routinely become involved in litigation relating to
patents and other intellectual property. There are several actions of
that nature presently pending. If the presently pending suits described
above were sustained in substantially the amounts asserted, they would
have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition
and results of operations. However, based on its knowledge of the facts
and circumstances relating to the Corporation's liabilities, if any, and
to its insurance coverage, management believes that the disposition of
such suits will not result in charges against assets or earnings
materially in excess of amounts provided in the accounts.
The Corporation and its subsidiaries, along with many other companies, are
codefendants in numerous lawsuits pending in the United States and Canada,
in which plaintiffs claim damages for personal injury or property damage
alleged to arise from exposure to or use of asbestos. At July 1, 1994 and
June 25, 1993, the suits pending numbered approximately 42,800 and 30,900,
respectively. It is anticipated that a substantial number of similar
suits will be filed in the future. Since the inception of
asbestos-related litigation against the Corporation and its subsidiaries,
approximately 34,700 lawsuits have been terminated without any payment or
with only nominal payments by the insurers for the Corporation and its
subsidiaries. Based on its knowledge of relevant facts and circumstances,
on its determination of the availability and extent of insurance coverage,
and on the advice of the Corporation's special counsel, the management of
the Corporation is of the opinion that the ultimate disposition of pending
and future asbestos-related lawsuits will not result in material charges
against assets or earnings. The asbestos litigation herein described does
not relate to any activities currently being carried on by the Corporation
or its subsidiaries.
3. The Corporation's unsecured debt contains the following restrictions:
The Note Agreement pursuant to which the 8.58% notes were issued and the
Revolving Credit Agreement require that consolidated Tangible Net Worth,
as defined in the agreements, be at least $400,000 plus 25% of earnings
from 1991 and thereafter. At July 1, 1994, the consolidated Tangible
- 5 -

(IN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
(UNAUDITED)
(Continued)
Net Worth was $566,400. The Note Agreement and the Revolving Credit Agreement
also require the maintenance of certain capitalization ratios. Both agreements
require that the ratio of Indebtedness to Tangible Net Worth, as those terms
are defined in the agreements, not exceed .65 to 1. At July 1, 1994 this ratio
was .34 to 1.
4. A total of 1,095,140 shares were reserved for issuance under the stock
option plans; of this total 539,578 were not under option.
5. Foster Wheeler Corporation had a backlog of firm orders as of July 1, 1994
of $4,264,214 as compared to a backlog as of June 25, 1993 of $3,834,681.
6. Earnings per share data have been computed on the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding. Outstanding stock options have
been disregarded because their effect on earnings per share would not be
significant.
7. Interest income and cost for the following periods are:

ITEM 2.-MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED)
The following is Management's Discussion and Analysis of certain significant
factors which have affected the financial condition and results of operations
of the Corporation for the periods indicated below. This discussion and
analysis should be read in conjunction with the 1993 Annual Report, Form 10-K
filed March 25, 1994.
A. Consolidated results of operations for three and six months ended July 1,
1994 vs. three and six months ended June 25, 1993.
The backlog of unfilled orders as of July 1, 1994 totaled $4.3 billion,
the highest in the history of the Corporation. On a consolidated basis,
this represented an 11% increase over the amount reported for June 1993.
Unfilled orders of the Engineering and Construction Group increased by
approximately 9% due principally to the orders taken by Foster Wheeler
Italiana, S.p.A. and Foster Wheeler Limited-U.K. The Energy Equipment
Group recorded a 22% increase in unfilled orders due primarily to the
orders taken by Foster Wheeler Energy Corporation.
New orders booked for the three and six months ended July 1, 1994 amounted
to approximately $700 million and $1.5 billion, respectively. These
amounts represented increases of 10% for the three month period and 16%
for the six month period in comparison to 1993. These increases were
primarily the result of significant bookings by two European Engineering
and Construction subsidiaries and the bookings recorded by Foster Wheeler
Energy Corporation.
Operating revenues for the three and six months ended July 1, 1994
decreased approximately $75 million and $192 million in comparison to
1993. These decreases primarily resulted from two European affiliates of
the Engineering and Construction Group reporting lower revenues related to
flow-thru costs.
For the first six months of 1994 other income decreased slightly,
primarily due to the recognition of an exchange gain in 1993. Other
deductions for the three and six month periods decreased slightly in
comparison to 1993. Interest expense represented approximately 90% of
total other deductions for both the three and six month periods ended July
1, 1994. In comparing both the three and six month periods, selling
general and administrative expenses remained at approximately the same
levels as reported in 1993.
Net earnings increased by approximately $4.8 million (18%) for the six
month period and by $2.1 million (14%) for the three month period. The
year-to-date increase was primarily due to the increased earnings reported
by the Energy Equipment Group. Foster Wheeler Energy Corporation and
Foster Wheeler Energia, S.A. (in Spain) both reported increases in excess
of 50% in comparison to 1993. For the quarter all operating groups
reported earnings increases over the second quarter of 1993. The most
significant increases were reported by Foster Wheeler Energia, S.A. and
Foster Wheeler Italiana, S.p.A.

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)
B. Consolidated Financial Position
Stockholder's equity for the six months ended July 1, 1994 increased
$36,474,000. The increases from net earnings $32,062,000 and the change
in the accumulative translation adjustment ($13,868,000) were partially
offset by dividends to stockholders of $12,511,000. Since December 31,
1993, cash and cash equivalents have increased by $20,747,000. Cash
generated from earnings of $62,534,000 reduced by an increase in funding
of working capital resulted in a use of cash from operating activities of
$4,907,000. Cash was used to pay dividends of $12,511,000 and long-term
debt of $4,095,000. Existing cash balances, short term investments and
unused credit facilities with banks remain adequate to support expected
operating levels and anticipated future investing and financing
activities.
