MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Introduction
Illinois Tool Works Inc. is a multinational manufacturer of highly engineered
components and industrial systems with two business segments: Engineered
Components, and Industrial Systems and Consumables. These segments are
described below.
Engineered Components Segment
Businesses in this segment manufacture short lead-time plastic and metal
components, fasteners and assemblies; industrial fluids and adhesives;
fastening tools and welding equipment. This segment primarily serves the
construction, automotive and general industrial markets.

Domestic
Successful penetration in the automotive markets largely contributed
to the increased domestic revenues in 1995 compared with 1994. Miller
Electric's revenue growth from welding equipment and accessories was
attributable to new product introductions and a stronger U.S. economy.
The construction businesses also contributed to revenue growth due to increased
distribution efficiency, continued penetration with new products and a steady
commercial construction market throughout the year. Operating income and
margins were up due to cost reductions in the construction businesses and the
automotive businesses' revenue growth.
In 1994, the automotive businesses contributed to the growth in
domestic revenues compared with 1993 as a result of improved penetration with
the "Big Three" automotive companies and a stronger domestic car market.
Construction markets were stronger in 1994 versus 1993 which resulted in
increased sales volume. Operating income and margins increased primarily due
to revenue gains in both the automotive and construction businesses. Miller
also contributed to the overall improved financial performance due to
strengthening welding markets and cost reductions.
International
Strong performance in the European automotive markets in 1995 resulted in
increased international revenues and operating income versus 1994. Revenue
growth was moderated due to soft Australian and German construction markets.
Operating income and margins increased as a result of volume gains in the
European automotive businesses, partially offset by lower operating income in
the international construction businesses as a result of lower revenues.
Foreign currencies also had a favorable impact on revenues and
operating income in 1995 compared with 1994. Seventy-seven percent of
international revenues are from European operations.
The European automotive businesses mainly contributed to the international
revenue growth in 1994 over 1993 due to increased market penetration and an 11%
increase in European car builds for the year. Operating income and margins in
1994 were higher versus 1993 primarily due to the increase in sales volume
coupled with improved productivity in the automotive operations. Significant
cost reductions and product mix in the European construction markets also
contributed to operating income and margin growth.
Industrial Systems and Consumables Segment
Businesses in this segment manufacture longer lead-time systems and related
consumables for consumer and industrial packaging, industrial spray coating
equipment and systems, and quality measurement equipment and systems.
The largest markets served by this segment are general industrial,
food and beverage, and industrial capital goods.

Domestic
Stronger demand in 1995 for industrial packaging products and increased market
penetration in the beverage markets for the consumer packaging businesses
resulted in an increase in domestic revenues and operating income compared with
1994. Acquisitions in the consumer packaging group added to the increase in
revenues but reduced margins. New products and acquisitions for the finishing
systems operations resulted in higher revenues but lower margins as a result
of product mix. The industrial packaging businesses' margins increased due
to process improvements and new product introductions.
Domestic revenues, operating income and margins increased in 1994
versus 1993 due to improved results in the industrial packaging and the
finishing systems businesses as a result of new product introductions and
higher sales volume. The quality measurement businesses, which serve the
capital goods markets, slightly moderated operating income growth.
International
In 1995, international industrial packaging businesses led in the revenue and
operating income growth followed by the consumer packaging operations.
Acquisitions added to the growth in each business. The finishing systems
businesses showed continued growth as well due to market share gains in the
European automotive and general industrial markets and increased revenue in the
Japanese market. Margins increased due to new product introductions and cost
reductions for the industrial packaging businesses and European finishing
systems operations. Foreign currencies also contributed to the
increases in revenues and operating income. Seventy-eight percent of
international revenues are from European operations.
International revenue growth in 1994 versus 1993 was primarily due to higher
sales in the industrial packaging businesses. The consumer packaging group
also distributed to the revenue growth as beverage markets picked up in Europe.
While the industrial packaging businesses showed revenue growth in 1994,
operating income and margins declined due to price relief given to customers
during the soft economic period in Europe. The decline in operating income
and margins for the industrial packaging businesses was more than offset by
improved profitability in the finishing systems operations related to new
products and cost reductions.
Operating Costs
Operating costs as a percentage of revenues were 65.4% in 1995 compared with
66.2% in 1994 and 67.2% in 1993. The decreases in 1995 and 1994 versus the
previous years were due to increased sales volume coupled with the overall
containment of manufacturing costs.
Selling, Administrative and R&D Expenses
Selling, administrative, and research and development expenses were 18.1% of
revenues in 1995 versus 18.8% in 1994 and 19.9% in 1993. This ratio continues
to decline because of expense reductions as a result of a Company-wide
objective to reduce administrative costs.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased to $31.6 million in 1995, versus $26.9 million in
1994, primarily due to debt assumed from acquisitions.
Interest expense declined in 1994 from $35.0 million in 1993
mainly as a result of reduced commercial paper and foreign borrowings.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) increased to net income of $4.7 million in 1995
versus $14.6 million of net expense in 1994, primarily due to an increase in
investment and interest income, partially offset by an increase in
nonrecurring costs unrelated to operations. Increased nonrecurring
costs and lower interest income resulted in higher net expense in 1994 compared
with $7.7 million in 1993.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 37.9% in 1995, 38.3% in 1994 and 38.5% in 1993. See
the Provision for Income Taxes footnote for a reconciliation of the Federal
statutory rate to the effective tax rate. Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, was adopted in 1993 and had no
material impact on earnings.
Net Income
Net income in 1995 of $387.6 million ($3.29 per share) was
39.5% higher than the 1994 net income of $277.8 million
($2.45 per share). Net income for 1994 was 34.5% higher than
1993 net income of $206.6 million ($1.83 per share).
Foreign Currency
The weakening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies in 1995 (primarily
European currencies) resulted in increased operating revenues of $116 million
and increased net income per share of approximately 10 cents per share.
Foreign currency fluctuations had no material impact on revenues or earnings in
1994 versus 1993.

Current Ratio 1.80 2.01
==== ====
The increase in trade receivables at December 31, 1995 was primarily due to
higher operating revenues in the fourth quarter of 1995 versus
1994 and 1995 acquisitions. Inventories increased $79.5 million in 1995 mainly
as a result of acquisitions.
Short-term debt increased at December 31, 1995, primarily due to increased
short-term commercial paper borrowings of $93.7 million.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased at December 31, 1995
versus year-end 1994 due to overall business growth and
acquisitions.
Long-term debt at December 31, 1995 consisted of $125 million of 7.5% notes,
$125 million of 5.875% notes, a $256 million nonrecourse 6.28% note,
$75 million of commercial paper borrowings and $43 million of
capitalized lease obligations and other debt. Long-term debt increased $343
million from December 31, 1994, principally as a result of the issuance of the
6.28% note and commercial paper borrowings during 1995. The percentage of
total debt to total capitalization increased to 29.2% at December 31, 1995
from 18.1% at December 31, 1994.
Stockholders' equity was $1.924 billion at December 31, 1995 compared with
$1.542 billion at December 31, 1994. Affecting equity were earnings of $388
million, dividends declared of $75 million, the effect of pooling of interests
acquisitions of $43 million and favorable currency translation
adjustments of $15 million, primarily related to stronger European currencies.
The Statement of Cash Flows for the years ended December
31, 1995 and 1994 is summarized below:

Other, net (75,208) 19,289
-------- ---------
Net increase in cash and
equivalents $ 39,733 $ 41,472
======== =========
Net cash provided by operating activities of $437 million in
1995 was primarily used for acquistions, for additions to plant and equipment
and for cash dividends. Net cash generated by operations in 1994 of $387
million was used mainly for repayment of commercial paper borrowings, for
additions to plant and equipment and for cash dividends. Commercial paper
borrowings in 1995 were primarily used to fund investment purchases and
acquisitions.
Dividends paid per share increased 14.8% to $.62 per share
in 1995 from $.54 in 1994. The Company expects to contin-
ue to meet its dividend payout objective of 25-30% of the
average of the last three years' net income.
Management continues to believe that internally generated
funds will be adequate to service existing debt and maintain
appropriate debt to total capitalization and earnings to fixed
charge ratios. Internally generated funds are also expected to
be adequate to finance internal growth, small-to-medium
sized acquisitions and additional investments. The Company has
additional debt capacity to fund larger acquisitions.
The Company anticipates that its leasing and investment business may become
significant enough to begin reporting as a separate segment in 1996.

COMMENTS ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Comments and Associated Schedules in
this section furnish additional information on items in the
financial statements. The comments have been arranged in
the same order as the related items appear in the statements.
Illinois Tool Works Inc. ("the Company") is a multinational
manufacturer of highly engineered components and industrial
systems. The Company primarily serves the construction,
automotive and general industrial markets.
Significant accounting principles and policies of
the Company are highlighted in italics. Certain reclassifications of
prior years' data have been made to conform with current year reporting.
The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and the comments on financial statements. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consolidation and Translation-The financial
statements include the Company and its majority-owned
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions are
eliminated from the financial statements. Substantially all of the
Company's foreign subsidiaries have November 30 fiscal
year-ends to facilitate inclusion of their financial statements
in the December 31 financial statements.
Foreign subsidiaries' assets and liabilities are translated to
U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates. Revenues and
expenses are translated at average rates for the period.
Translation adjustments are not included in income but are reported as a
separate component of stockholders' equity.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Industry Segment and Geographic
Information -The Company's operations are divided
into two segments: Engineered Components, and Industrial
Systems and Consumables. See Management's Discussion
and Analysis for a description of the segments and informa-

Acquisitions and Dispositions - During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company
acquired and disposed of numerous operations which did not materially
affect consolidated results.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Depreciation was $126,900,000 in 1995 compared
with $109,805,000 in 1994 and $109,852,000 in 1993 and
was reflected primarily in operating costs. Depreciation of
plant and equipment for financial reporting purposes is computed
principally on an accelerated basis. Equipment leased to others
is depreciated over the noncancelable period of the related lease.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Research and Development Costs are recorded as expense in the year incurred.
These costs were $52,700,000 in 1995, $48,700,000 in 1994, and $47,200,000 in
1993.

The Provision for Income Taxes - Effective
January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes, using the current-year
recognition approach. The adoption of SFAS No. 109 had no material
impact on the Company's results of operations in 1993.
SFAS No. 109 utilizes the liability method of accounting
for income taxes. Deferred income taxes are determined
based on the estimated future tax effects of differences
between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities
given the provisions of the enacted tax laws.
The components of the provision for income taxes were
as shown below:

Deferred U.S. Federal income taxes and foreign with-
holding taxes have not been provided on approximately $489,900,000
of undistributed earnings of international affiliates as of
December 31, 1995. In the event these earnings were distrib-
uted to the Company, Federal income taxes payable
would be reduced by foreign tax credits based on income tax
laws and circumstances at the time of distribution. The net
tax effect would not be expected to be material.

Net Income Per Share of Common Stock is
computed on the basis of the average number of shares of common
stock outstanding. The dilutive effect of shares of common
stock subject to issuance under stock option plans are
excluded from the computation since the effect is not
material. The average number of shares outstanding was
117,989,000, 113,387,000 and 112,979,000 for 1995, 1994
and 1993, respectively.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and include material,
labor and factory overhead. The last-in, first-out (LIFO) method is used to
determine the cost of the inventories of the majority of domestic operations.
Inventories priced at LIFO were 39% and 43% of total inventories as of December
31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The first-in, first-out (FIFO) method is
used for all other inventories. Under the FIFO method, which approximates
current cost, total inventories would have been approximately $42,300,000 and
$40,700,000 higher than reported at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

Goodwill represents the excess cost over fair value of the net assets of
purchased businesses. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over
15 to 40 years. The Company assesses the recoverability of unamortized goodwill
by reviewing the sufficiency of future undiscounted cash flows of the related
entity to cover the amortization during the remaining amortization period.
Amortization expense was $16,335,000 in 1995, $14,031,000 in 1994, and
$13,268,000 in 1993. Accumulated goodwill amortization was $100,242,000

Retirement Plans - The Company sponsors defined contribution retirement plans
covering the majority of domestic employees. The Company's contributions to
these plans were $9,900,000 in 1995, $8,400,000 in 1994 and $6,900,000 in 1993.
The Company provides the majority of its employees with pension benefits. The
Company's principal domestic plan provides benefits based on years of service
and compensation levels during the latter years of employment. Other domestic
and foreign plans provide benefits similar to the principal domestic plan.
Subject to the limitation on deductibility imposed by Federal income tax
laws, the Company's policy has been to contribute funds to the plans annually
in amounts required to maintain sufficient plan assets to provide for accrued
benefits. No contributions to the principal plan were made in 1995, 1994 or
1993. Contributions to international and other domestic plans were minimal in
1995, 1994 and 1993. Domestic plan assets consist primarily of listed common
stocks and debt securities.

Postretirement Health Care Benefits- The Company provides health care benefits
to the majority of domestic employees and their covered dependents.
Generally, employees who have reached age 55 and rendered 10 years of service
are eligible for these benefits, which are subject to retiree contributions,
deductibles, copayment provisions and other limitations.
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 106, Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
Benefits Other Than Pensions. This standard requires that the expected cost
of health care benefits be charged to expense during the service lives of
employees rather than the cash basis method previously used. The Company has
elected to amortize the unfunded accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
(APBO) of $145,500,000 as of January 1, 1993 over 20 years.
A one-percentage point increase in the health care cost trend rate would
increase the APBO as of December 31, 1995 by approximately $13,698,000 and the
sum of the 1995 annual service and interest cost by approximately
$1,597,000.

facility (RCF) expiring on August 14, 1997, which provides for borrowings
under a number of options and which may be reduced or canceled at any time at
the Company's option. In July 1994, the Company canceled $150,000,000 of the
RCF. In August 1995, the Company entered into another RCF for $175,000,000
expiring on August 21, 1996, which provides for borrowings under a number of
options and which may be reduced or canceled at any time at the Company's
option. There were no amounts outstanding under these facilities as of
December 31, 1995.
Each RCF contains financial covenants establishing a maximum total debt to
total capitalization percentage and a minimum consolidated tangible net worth.
The Company was in compliance with these covenants at December 31, 1995.
Commercial paper is issued at a discount and generally matures 30 to 90 days
from the date of issue. The Company maintains unused commitments under the
RCF's equal to any commercial paper borrowings. The weighted average interest
rate on commercial paper outstanding at December 31, 1995 was 5.85%. No
commercial paper was outstanding at December 31, 1994.
The commercial paper balance expected to remain outstanding beyond one year
has been classified as long-term in the accompanying Statement of Financial
Position, reflecting the Company's intent and ability to finance the
borrowings on a long-term basis. The remaining commercial paper balance has
been classified as short-term.
Other debt bears interest at rates ranging from 2.2% to 14.2%, with
maturities through the year 2015.
Scheduled maturities of long-term debt for the years ended December 31 are
