PART I
Item 1. Business
Hubbell Incorporated (herein referred to as "Hubbell", the "Company" or the
"registrant", which references shall include its divisions and subsidiaries as
the context may require) was founded as a proprietorship in 1888, and was
incorporated in Connecticut in 1905. For over a century, Hubbell has
manufactured and sold high quality electrical and electronic products for a
broad range of commercial, industrial, telecommunications, and utility
applications. Since 1961, Hubbell has expanded its operations into other areas
of the electrical industry and related fields. Hubbell products are now
manufactured or assembled by nineteen divisions and subsidiaries at twenty-six
locations in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Mexico, United Kingdom and
Singapore. Hubbell also participates in joint ventures with partners in Germany
and Taiwan, and maintains sales offices in Malaysia, Indonesia, Germany, Hong
Kong, South Korea, and the Middle East.
Hubbell is primarily engaged in the engineering, manufacture and sale of
electrical and electronic products. These products can be divided into three
general segments: products primarily used in low-voltage applications, products
primarily used in high-voltage applications and products that either are not
directly related to the electrical business, or, if related, cannot be clearly
classified on a voltage application basis. Hubbell defines "low-voltage" as
being 600 volts and less and "high-voltage" as greater than 600 volts. Reference
is made to page 38 for information relative to Industry Segment and Geographic
Area Information for 1994, 1993 and 1992.
On January 19, 1994, in reporting its fourth quarter - 1993, and full year -
1993, results, Hubbell announced implementation of a restructuring program which
will include the consolidation of all or a portion of ten manufacturing
facilities, a reduction in labor force of approximately 6%, the reorganization
of certain operation's management structure, and a realignment of warehousing
and product distribution capabilities.
In April, 1994, Hubbell acquired the stock of A. B. Chance Industries, Inc.
("Chance"). Chance, with facilities in Mexico and Centralia, Missouri;
Scarborough, Canada; and Bristol, England, manufactures products used in the
electrical transmission, distribution and telecommunications industries,
including electrical apparatus (overhead and underground distribution switches,
fuses, contacts, and sectionalizers); anchors; hardware; polymer insulators; and
hot-line tools and other safety equipment. Additional information relating to
the Chance acquisition can be found on pages 5 and 7 of this document.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Management views liquidity on the basis of the Company's ability to meet
operational needs, fund additional investments, including acquisitions, and
make dividend payments to shareholders.
At December 31, 1994, the Company's financial condition remained strong with
working capital of $112.8 million and a current ratio of 1.3 to 1.
Net cash provided by operations was comparable to prior years after adjusting
for the impact of restructuring costs. The increase in depreciation and
amortization is due to the acquisition of A.B. Chance and a higher level of
depreciable assets. As sales volumes increased, accounts receivables increased
accordingly. To support service levels inventories also increased.
The level of net cash used in investing and financing activities in 1994 and
1993 is in line with the Company's historic patterns excluding the effect of
the A.B. Chance acquisition. In 1992 as part of managing its financial
investment structure, the Company re-allocated funds from temporary cash
investments into longer-term securities with higher investment yields and
entered into unsecured short-term borrowings to manage working capital
requirements. In September 1994, the Company established a commercial
paper program that replaced bank term loans which resulted in an approximate
thirty basis point reduction in the cost of funds. At December 31, 1994,
commercial paper and bank borrowings of $139.4 million and long-term debt of
$2.7 million were 23.3% of shareholder's equity.
Capital expenditures in 1994 increased over 1993 due to the restructuring
program as well as the Company's continued investment in new machinery and
equipment as part of the on-going programs of product development and
improvements in operating efficiencies. Although no significant commitments
had been made at December 31, 1994, the Company anticipates that capital
expenditures will be between $50.0 million and $60.0 million annually during
the next three years. This level of expenditures reflects the historic
capital investment pattern plus the normal capital requirements of the acquired
businesses and the capital investment portion of the planned restructuring
program. The Company believes that currently available cash, available
borrowing facilities, and its ability to increase its credit lines if needed,
combined with internally generated funds should be more than sufficient to fund
capital expenditures as well as any increase in working capital that would be
required to accommodate a higher level of business activity.
The Company actively seeks to expand by acquisition as well as through the
growth of its present businesses. While a significant acquisition may require
additional borrowings, the Company believes it would be able to obtain
financing based on its favorable historical earnings performance and strong
financial position.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
1994 Compared to 1993
Consolidated net sales for 1994 increased by 22% over 1993 reflecting the
acquisition of A.B. Chance Industries, Inc. in April, 1994, and progressive
improvement month by month of product shipments at the Wiring Device,
Industrial Controls, Premise Wiring, Lighting and Raco operations as the U.S.
economy strengthened. These improvements were impacted by lower activity at
the Pulse
<PAGE> 15
Page 15
Communications subsidiary during the first half of the year. Total segment
operating income, excluding the impact of the restructuring charge recorded in
1993, increased 15% on higher sales volumes. The rate of increase was
moderated by the inclusion of the A.B. Chance products which have a lower
operating margin rate than the Company's existing businesses.
Low Voltage segment sales increased 6% on higher shipments of wiring device,
lighting and industrial control products as demand in the industrial and
commercial markets improved. Segment operating income increased 6% in line
with the higher sales volumes.
Sales of the High Voltage segment increased more than 52% due to the inclusion
of A. B. Chance Industries, Inc. and higher sales of insulators and surge
arresters while demand for power cable remained flat. Operating income
increased 45% as the rate of growth in sales volume was tempered by the
lower-margined products of the acquired business.
Other industry segment sales increased 33% reflecting the inclusion of certain
product lines of A. B. Chance (line construction hardware and support and
foundation anchors), as well as, improved shipments of enclosures, fittings,
switch and outlet boxes, and wire management products which offset the lower
sales of telecommunication products. Segment operating income increased by 24%
for the period and was impacted by reduced shipments of the higher margined
telecommunications products, offset in part by cost reductions realized when
Pulse Communications and Raynet Corporation terminated their joint development
project.
International sales increased 28% as the Canadian and Asian economies improved
and the Company continued to expand its product offerings in Mexico. Operating
income increased on the higher sales volume and improved operating efficiencies
in Canada. As a percentage of total sales, International shipments from
foreign subsidiaries were 6% in 1994 and 5% in 1993 with the Canadian market
representing approximately 60% of the total. International operations expose
the Company to flucuation in foreign currency exchange rates. To manage this
exposure, the Company closely monitors the working capital requirements of the
units and may enter into currency hedges for specific transactions. The
Company does not engage in speculation. The gains and losses on hedges are
classified consistent with the transaction being hedged. At December 31, 1994,
there were no currency hedges in place.
General corporate expenses increased 2%. Investment income declined 6% as the
average level of investment funds was reduced by the acquisition of A.B.
Chance. Interest expense increased reflecting a higher level of short-term
borrowings utilized for working capital requirements and which has allowed the
Company to maintain its long-term investment positions that have a current
yield higher than the cost of short-term funds. The increase in other expenses
reflects a full year of charges for a corporate owned life insurance program.
The effective tax rate was 27% in 1994, 19% in 1993 and 28% in 1992. The tax
rate in 1993 was impacted by the recording of the restructuring charge in that
year. The Company's tax rate benefits from the lower taxes on earnings in its
Puerto Rico operations and continued emphasis on generating tax-exempt income.
Net income and earnings per share increased by 60% over the 1993 reported
results which included a pre-tax charge of $50,000,000 for restructuring.
1993 Compared With 1992
Consolidated net sales increased 6% on improved sales through distributors and
home centers; continued growth at the Ohio Brass subsidiary; inclusion of
Hipotronics Inc., acquired in November
<PAGE> 16
Page 16
1992 and E. M. Wiegmann & Co., Inc. acquired in March 1993. These
improvements were offset by lower activity at the Pulse Communications
subsidiary and foreign operations. In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company
recorded a $50,000,000 pretax charge ($31,000,000 net of tax, or $.93 per
share) for the estimated costs of a restructuring program. The program
includes the consolidation of all or a portion of several manufacturing plants,
a reduction in labor force of approximately 6%, the reorganization of certain
operations' management and structure, and a realignment of warehousing and
product distribution capabilities. The restructuring charge is approximately
equally divided between personnel costs (severance and postemployment
benefits), plant and equipment relocation and costs associated with disposal of
plant and equipment. At the end of 1993, $7,250,000 had been expended with an
additional $14,000,000 anticipated in 1994 with the balance to be expended
approximately equally in 1995 and 1996. After an approximate three year
implementation the annual savings and cost avoidance could be as much as
$25,000,000. Excluding the impact of the restructuring charge, segment total
operating income increased 2% as a large portion of the sales growth was in
lower margin products combined with strong price competition during this period
of slow economic growth. Additionally, the Company has continued to increase
expenditures for product and market development as well as customer service
enhancements.
The Low Voltage Segment sales for the year increased 2% on higher shipments of
fluorescent lighting products and improved demand for products in the
commercial and industrial markets offsetting weakness in overseas markets.
Segment operating income before restructuring charges increased 2% in line with
the growth in sales.
Sales of the High Voltage Segment increased by more than 23% from the inclusion
of Hipotronics, Inc. and higher shipments of insulators and surge arresters.
Sales of power cable were essentially even with last year due to the depressed
worldwide market conditions for cable. Segment operating income before the
restructuring charge increased 35% on higher sales volume and improved
operating rates.
Other Industry Segment net sales increased by more than 4% due to the
acquisition of E. M. Wiegmann & Co., Inc. in March, 1993, and increased sales
of components for wire management, voice and data signals, which offset the
reduced shipments of telecommunication products and equipment. Segment
operating income prior to the restructuring charge decreased 10% reflecting the
reduced shipment of higher margined products and increased expenditures for
development of the next generation of telecommunication products.
General corporate expenses were slightly lower than last year due to continued
productivity improvements. Investment income increased 10% on a higher level
of funds invested in long-term securities. The higher level of interest
expense is due to the utilization of short-term borrowings by the Company. The
increase in other expenses reflects the charges for the establishment of a
corporate owned life insurance program. The effective tax rate was 19% in
1993, 28% in 1992, and 30% in 1991. The decline in the effective tax rate
reflects an increased portion of earnings from Puerto Rico operations and
continued emphasis on generating tax-exempt income combined with the tax effect
of the restructuring charge recorded in 1993. The recent tax law changes may
in future years reduce the tax benefit arising from the Company's Puerto Rico
operations.
Restructuring Program
The Company's restructuring program initiated in the fourth quarter of 1993 for
the consolidation of all or a portion of ten manufacturing plants, a labor
force reduction of approximately 6%, (which will effect approximately one
thousand employees with a net reduction of approximately three
<PAGE> 17
Page 17
hundred) the reorganization of certain operations' management and
structure, and a realignment of warehousing and product distribution
capabilities is proceeding according to plan.
- Construction of a modern manufacturing facility at the Seymour,
Connecticut, location of The Kerite Company subsidiary was completed in
September 1994. Full production in the new plant is scheduled to begin in
the first quarter of 1995. The consolidation of sales and marketing
activities for the Ohio Brass and Kerite subsidiaries are to be completed
by June 1995.
- A manufacturing site in Denver, Colorado was closed and production was
transferred to another Hubbell location.
- Downsizing and consolidation of operations in the United Kingdom should be
completed during 1995.
- Two satellite plants in Los Angeles, California of the Lighting operation
were closed and production was transferred to other facilities including
Christiansburg, Virginia, Martin, Tennessee and Juarez, Mexico.
- Operations serving Canadian customers with marketing, distribution, and
sales based in Ontario at Hubbell Canada Inc. have been reconfigured and
production relocated to other Hubbell operations with available capacity.
- Construction of a new plant in Juarez, Mexico was completed in September
1994. Transfer of equipment and production will continue during 1995.
- Expansion of manufacturing capacity in Puerto Rico is continuing on
schedule.
- A 425,000 square foot warehousing and manufacturing facility in Asheville,
North Carolina, was purchased. Consolidation of warehousing and
manufacturing activity will progress throughout 1995.
- Warehousing and distributions operations for the Bryant Electric subsidiary
in Allentown, Pennsylvania and Chicago, Illinois were closed.
- The manufacturing facility in Allentown, Pennsylvania is scheduled to be
closed by year-end 1995.
- Consolidation and realignment of Wiring Device Operations in Stonington,
Bridgeport, and Newtown, Connecticut is continuing on schedule.
At December 31, 1994, the restructuring accrual balance was $27,939,000 of
which $14,000,000 is classified as a current liability. Through December 31,
1994, cumulative costs charged to the restructuring accrual were $22,061,000
since inception as follows (in thousands):

Personnel costs include non-cash charges of $5,256,000 for early retirement
programs which have been reclassed to the Company's pension liability. With
regards to plant and equipment disposals, idled assets are adjusted to
estimated disposal value and classified as property held as investment which at
December 31, 1994 was $1,500,000. Proceeds from asset disposals were
$2,550,000 which approximated estimated market value. Cost avoidance,
savings-to-date and net cash flows are in-line with the projected results for
the projects.
Inflation
In times of inflationary cost increases, the Company has historically been able
to maintain its profitability by improvements in operating methods and cost
recovery through price increases. In large measure the reported operating
results have absorbed the effects of inflation since the Company's predominant
use of the LIFO method of inventory accounting generally has the effect of
charging operating results with costs (except for depreciation) that contain
current price levels.

STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include all subsidiaries; all significant
inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in
joint ventures are accounted for by using the equity method. Certain
reclassifications, which were not significant, have been made in prior period
financial statements to conform to the 1994 presentation.
Foreign Currency Translation
The assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries are translated to U.S.
dollars at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year, and income and
expense items are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the
year. The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on the translated amounts of
foreign currency assets and liabilities are included as translation adjustments
in shareholders' equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions
are included in income of the period.
Cash and Temporary Cash Investments
Temporary cash investments consist of liquid investments with maturities of
three months or less when purchased. The carrying value of cash and temporary
cash investments approximates fair value because of their short maturities.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The cost of
substantially all domestic inventories, 84% of total inventory value, is
determined on the basis of the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of inventory
accounting. The cost of foreign inventories and certain domestic inventories
is determined on the basis of the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of
inventory accounting.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful
lives, principally using accelerated methods.
Purchase Price in Excess of Net Assets of Companies Acquired
The cost of companies acquired in excess of the amount assigned to net assets
is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a 40 year period.
Deferred Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequence of differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and
liabilities by applying the currently enacted statutory tax rates. The effect
of a change in statutory tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date. Federal income taxes have not been provided on
the undistributed earnings of the Company's international subsidiaries as the
Company has reinvested all of these earnings indefinitely.
<PAGE> 25
Page 25
Retirement Benefits
The Company's policy is to fund pension costs within the ranges prescribed by
applicable regulations. In addition to providing pension benefits, in some
circumstances the Company provides health care and life insurance benefits for
retired employees. The Company's policy is to fund these benefits through
insurance premiums or as actual expenditures are made.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is based on reported income and the weighted average number
of shares of common stock and equivalents outstanding.
Change in Accounting Principles
Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115 - Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities. This statement requires investment securities to be
classified individually into one of three separate categories: trading,
available-for-sale or held-to-maturity and provides guidelines for valuing
investments based on their classifications. Trading investments are bought and
held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term and are
carried at fair market value. Adjustments to the carrying value of trading
investments are included in current earnings. Investments which the Company
has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as
held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost. Investments not classified as
trading or held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. They are
intended to be held for an indefinite period but may be sold in response to
events reasonably expected in the future. These investments are carried at
fair value with adjustments recorded in shareholders' equity, net of income
tax. Prior accounting standards required non-current marketable equity
securitites to be carried at the lower of cost or market with adjustments
reflected in shareholders' equity, while all debt securities were carried at
amortized cost. The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 115 on
shareholders' equity as of January 1, 1994 was immaterial.
In 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 106 - Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than
Pensions, No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes and No. 112 - Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits. As part of adopting the new accounting
standards as of January 1, 1992, a one-time non-cash charge of $16,506,000 net
of tax or $0.50 per share was recorded reflecting the impact of SFAS No. 106
($13,857,000), SFAS No. 112 ($4,340,000) offset by SFAS No. 109 ($1,691,000).
Also deferred taxes were recorded for business acquisitions completed before
January 1, 1992 which increased the previously allocated purchased adjustments
to inventories, property, plant and equipment. The impact of these accounting
changes on 1992 financial results was not significant.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Restructuring Charge
In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company recorded a $50,000,000 pretax charge
($31,000,000 net of tax benefits, or $.93 per share) for the estimated costs of
a restructuring program. The program entails the consolidation of manufacturing
facilities, reduction in labor force and the realignment of warehousing and
distribution activities. The restructuring charge includes personnel costs
(severance and postemployment benefits), plant and equipment relocation, and
costs associated with disposal of plant and equipment. At December 31, 1994, the
restructuring accrual was $27,939,000 of which $14,000,000 is classified as a
current liability. Costs charged to the restructuring accrual were $14,811,000
in 1994 and $7,250,000 in 1993. These cumulative expenditures represent
personnel costs of $12,006,000; plant and equipment relocation of $4,830,000 and
asset disposals of $5,225,000. Personnel costs include non-cash charges of
$5,256,000 for early retirement programs which have been reclassed to the
Company's pension liability. With regards to plant and equipment disposals,
idled assets are adjusted to estimated disposal value and classified as property
held as investment which at December 31, 1994 was $1,500,000. Proceeds from
asset disposals were $2,550,000 which approximated estimated market value.
Acquisitions
On April 19, 1994, the Company completed its acquisition of A.B. Chance
Industries, Inc., a manufacturer of electrical apparatus, anchors, hardware,
insulators, hot-line tools, and other safety equipment. The acquisition was for
$110,000,000 in cash and was recorded under the purchase method of accounting.
The cost of the acquired business has been allocated to assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their fair values with the residual amount of
$78,000,000 assigned to goodwill, which is being amortized over forty years. In
connection with the acquisition, liabilities were assumed as follows (in
thousands):

In preparing the unaudited pro forma combined summary of operations, adjustments
were made to the historical financial statements to reflect the reduction in the
securities portfolio and investment income; increase in short-term borrowing and
interest expense; amortization of goodwill; the repayment of existing debt of
A.B. Chance Industries, Inc.; and other estimated purchase accounting entries.
The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what would have been
obtained if the operations had been combined during 1993, nor are they
necessarily indicative of the results that may occur in the future.
In March 1993, E.M. Wiegmann & Co., Inc. was acquired for $15,000,000 in cash.
Wiegmann fabricates a wide range of cabinets, panels, consoles and other
enclosures used to mount and protect transformers, industrial controls, and
wireway duct and fittings. In November 1992, Hipotronics, Inc., was acquired for
$40,000,000 in cash. Hipotronics, Inc. manufactures high voltage test equipment
which is sold to electric utility and industrial companies in the United States
and abroad. The acquisitions in 1993 and 1992 were recorded under the purchase
method of accounting. The total cost of the acquired businesses has been
allocated to current assets, property, plant and equipment, goodwill, and other
liabilities. The results of operations for the acquired businesses have been
included in the consolidated statement of income only from their respective
acquisition dates. If the businesses had been acquired on the first day of 1992,
unaudited consolidated net sales would have been $836,902,000 in 1993 and
$822,832,000 in 1992, and there would have been no material effect on reported
earnings for the respective years.

INVESTMENTS
Investments consist primarily of mortgage-backed securities, U.S. Treasury
Notes, common and preferred stocks. For 1994, investments which are
available-for-sale are stated at market values based on current quotes while
investments which are being held-to-maturity are stated at amortized cost. For
1993 marketable equity securities were carried at the lower of aggregate cost or
market; other investments were carried at cost with the purchase premium or
discount amortized over the estimated life of the security. There were no
securities during 1994 that were classified as trading investments. Certain
portfolio securities that are affected by changes in interest rates may be
hedged with futures contracts for U.S. Treasury notes and bonds. Market value
gains and losses on the futures contracts are recognized in income when the
effects of the related price changes in the value of the hedged securities are
recognized. At December 31, 1994 there were no open future contracts.

The projected benefit obligations were determined using discount rates of 8.5%
in 1994 and 7.5% in 1993 and assumed average long-term rate of compensation
increase of 5% in 1994 and in 1993.
At December 31, 1994, approximately $69,800,000 of plan assets were invested in
common stocks, including Hubbell Incorporated common stock with a market value
of $8,500,000. The balance of plan assets are invested in short term money
market accounts, government and corporate bonds.
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions
The Company and its subsidiaries have a number of health care and life insurance
benefit plans covering eligible employees who reached retirement age while
working for the Company, providing they retired prior to 1992. These benefits
were discontinued in 1991 for substantially all future retirees, with the
exception of the A.B. Chance Company which was acquired in 1994.
For retirees prior to 1992, some of the plans provide for retiree contributions,
which are periodically increased. The plans anticipate future cost-sharing
changes that are consistent with the Company's past practices. The plans are
funded either on a monthly premium basis or as benefits become due.
At December 31, 1994, the recorded liability for providing these postretirement
benefits was based on a 7% discount rate and assumed health care cost trend rate
of 13% declining to 5.5% over ten years. The costs recognized for providing
these benefits in 1994, 1993 and 1992 were $1,400,000 (including A.B. Chance
Company), $1,300,000 and ,$1,400,000, respectively. The costs for 1994, 1993 and
1992 were primarily interest.

$4,890,000 in 1994, $3,280,000 in 1993 and $577,000 in 1992. The Company
maintains various bank credit agreements primarily to support commercial paper
borrowings. At December 31, 1994 the Company had total bank credit agreements of
$125 million, of which $115 million were unused. The expiration dates for these
bank credit agreements are September 27, 1999 for $100 million and November 19,
1995 for the balance. Borrowings under credit agreements generally are available
at the prime rate or at a surcharge over the London Interbank Offered Rate
(LIBOR). Annual commitment fee requirements to support availability of credit
agreements at December 31, 1994 total approximately $100,000.

Leases
Total rental expense under operating leases was $6,900,000 in 1994, $5,600,000
in 1993 and $6,600,000 in 1992.
The minimum annual rentals on non-cancelable, long-term, operating leases in
effect at December 31, 1993 will approximate $2,100,000 in 1995, $1,300,000 in
1996, and will decline thereafter.
Research, Development and Engineering
Expenses for new product development and ongoing improvement of existing
products were $12,500,000 in 1994, $15,400,000 in 1993 and $13,800,000 in 1992.
Financial Instruments
Concentration of Credit Risks: Financial instruments which potentially subject
the Company to concentration of credit risks consist of trade receivables and
temporary cash investments. The Company grants credit terms in the normal course
of business to its customers. Due to the diversity of its product segments, the
Company has a diverse customer base including electrical distributors and
wholesalers, electric utilities, equipment manufacturers, electrical
contractors, telephone operating companies and retail and hardware outlets. As
part of its ongoing procedures, the Company monitors the credit worthiness of
its customers. Bad debt write-offs have historically been minimal. The Company
places its temporary cash investments with financial institutions and limits the
amount of exposure to any one institution.
Fair Value: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for
cash and temporary cash investments, receivables, commercial paper and bank
borrowings, accounts payable and accruals approximate their fair values given
the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial investments. The fair
value of investment securities are disclosed in the Investment footnote.

</TABLE>
Shares held in Treasury at December 31, 1994: Class A Common - 1,690,842; Class
B Common - 1,954,950. For accounting purposes, the Company treats treasury
shares as being constructively retired and accordingly charges the purchase
price against par value and additional paid-in capital. Voting rights per share:
Class A Common - twenty; Class B Common - one. In addition, the Company has
5,891,097 authorized shares of preferred stock; none are outstanding.
On December 13, 1994, the Board of Directors declared a 5% stock dividend
payable in Class B Common Stock to all shareholders on January 13, 1995. In the
accompanying financial statements all per common share amounts have been
restated to reflect the stock dividend.
The Company has a Shareholder Rights Plan under which holders of Class A Common
Stock have Class A Rights and holders of Class B Common Stock have Class B
Rights. These Rights become exercisable after a specified period of time only if
a person or group of affiliated persons acquires beneficial ownership of 20
percent or more of the outstanding Class A Common Stock of the Company or
announces or commences a tender or exchange offer that would result in the
offeror acquiring beneficial ownership of 30 percent or more of the outstanding
Class A Common Stock of the Company. Once exercisable, the Rights would entitle
their registered holders to purchase, for each common share held, one share of
the Company's Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as the case may be,
at a price of $98.72 per share, subject to adjustment to prevent dilution. Upon
the occurrence of certain events or transactions specified in the Rights
Agreement, a holder of Rights applicable to one share is entitled to receive for
an exercise price of $98.72 per share owned, a number of shares of the Company's
Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as the case may be, or an
acquiring corporation's common stock, having a market value equal to twice the
exercise price. The Rights may be redeemed by the Company for one cent per Right
prior to the tenth day after a person or group of affiliated persons has
acquired 20 percent or more of the outstanding Class A Common Stock of the
Company. The Rights expire on December 31, 1998, unless earlier redeemed by the
Company.

Industry Segment and Geographic Area Information
The Company's business is the manufacture and sale of electrical and electronic
products. For better assessment, operations are reported in three segments as
follows:
Low Voltage products are in the range of less than 600 volts, are sold
principally to distributors and represent stock items. At December 31, 1994,
this segment consisted of standard and special application wiring device
products, lighting fixtures and low voltage industrial controls.
High Voltage products are in the more than 600 volt range, are generally sold
directly to the user and represent products made to customer's order. At
December 31, 1994, this segment comprised test and measurement equipment, wire
and cable, electrical transmission and distribution products such as insulators,
surge arresters, switches, cutouts, sectionalizers and fuses.
The Other segment consists of products not classified on a voltage basis. At
December 31, 1994, this segment included standard and special application
cabinets and enclosures, fittings, switch and outlet boxes, wire management
components and systems, construction materials and tools for building and
maintenance of overhead and underground power and telephone lines, data
transmission and telecommunications equipment and components for voice and data
signals.
Net sales comprise sales to unaffiliated customers - intersegment and inter-area
sales are immaterial.
Segment operating income consists of net sales less operating expenses. General
corporate expenses, interest expense, and other income, net have not been
allocated to segments.
General corporate assets not allocated to segments are principally cash and
investments.
