PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
ADC Telecommunications, Inc. designs, manufactures and markets a broad
range of transmission and networking systems and physical connectivity products
for broadband telecommunications networks utilizing copper, coax, fiber optic
and wireless transmission methods. The Company markets its products worldwide
through its own direct sales force, as well as through distributors and original
equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The Company's products are designed for use in
the public telecommunications networks maintained by telephone operating
companies, interexchange carriers, other telecommunications common carriers and
broadcast and cable TV network providers, and for use in private
telecommunications networks maintained by large businesses, government agencies,
and educational and other non-profit institutions.
The Company was incorporated in 1953 as a Minnesota corporation under the
name Magnetic Controls Company. In 1961, Magnetic Controls Company was merged
with ADC Incorporated, a Minnesota corporation incorporated in 1935. In 1984,
the Company sold substantially all of the assets of its magnetics operations. In
1985, Magnetic Controls Company changed its corporate name to ADC
Telecommunications, Inc. in order to better reflect the Company's commitment to
the telecommunications market and to identify the Company more closely with its
ADC trademark.
In July 1989, ADC acquired Kentrox Industries, Inc. (Kentrox), located in
Portland, Oregon. Kentrox designs, manufactures and markets public network
access equipment for private telecommunications networks and wireless
transmission products for public network providers. In July 1990, ADC acquired
American Lightwave Systems, Inc. (ALS). ALS, located in Meriden, Connecticut,
designs, manufactures and markets fiber optic video transmission equipment for
the telephone, cable TV, broadcast and government markets. In May 1991, ADC
acquired Fibermux Corporation (Fibermux), located in Chatsworth, California.
Fibermux designs, manufactures, markets and installs enterprise-wide
communication systems for the interconnection and transport
<PAGE>
of Local Area Network (LAN) and other voice, data and video traffic, primarily
in private telecommunications networks. As used in this report, the terms
"Company" and "ADC" refer to ADC Telecommunications, Inc. and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise, and 1994, 1993 and 1992
refer to the Company's fiscal years ended October 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.
THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS MARKET
The largest market for the Company's broad range of telecommunications
products consists of companies providing service in the public
telecommunications networks and the OEMs which supply such companies. The
Company's transmission and physical connectivity products for the public network
market are primarily located in central transmission facilities (i.e., telephone
company network central offices, cable TV company network supertrunks and
headend offices, and wireless network base stations, all of which contain the
equipment used in switching and transmitting incoming and outgoing circuits).
Increasingly, portions of the Company's public network transmission systems are
located in the public network outside plant facilities (outside the central
transmission buildings) and on customers' premises.
Another market for the Company's products consists of rapidly growing
private voice, data and video telecommunications networks maintained by
businesses, government agencies, and educational and other non-profit
institutions. The Company's customers in this market primarily include large
businesses and government agencies with their own communications networks and
the OEMs and Value Added Resellers (VARs) which supply such networks. The
Company's products for private networks are located on the private network
customers' premises and consist of enterprise-wide communication systems and
public network access equipment.
The market for the Company's products has grown in large part due to the
effects of three ongoing developments in the telecommunications industry. First,
rapid technological change has created a demand for new products employing
advanced technologies. Second, the shift to data and video network traffic has
resulted in increasing demand for broadband, multimedia networking capabilities
in both public and private networks. Third, the policy of deregulation
2
<PAGE>
being followed by the Federal Communications Commission and similar regulatory
agencies throughout the world has increased opportunities for independent
companies to supply products and services within public telephone system markets
and within private voice, data and video communications markets.
The Company believes that for the foreseeable future technological change
will be the most important development in the continuing evolution of the
telecommunications market. One important technological change in transmission
technology has been the introduction of fiber optic cable and electronics. In a
fiber optic system, lasers transmit voice, data and video traffic in the form of
analog or digital coded light pulses through a glass fiber approximately the
size of a human hair. Fiber optic systems are increasingly replacing existing
copper based transmission systems because of their capacity to carry large
volumes of information at high speeds, their insensitivity to electromagnetic
interference and the high transmission quality made possible by the physical
properties of light .
A second important technological change in the telecommunications
marketplace is the use of integrated circuits and miniaturization, which has
facilitated the transfer of certain telecommunications functions from central
switching and transmission locations to locations closer to the business or
residential end-user. In addition, because of the increased use of integrated
circuits in both public and private telecommunications, networks have become
significantly more complex. Increasingly, high speed switching, network
performance monitoring, network management, information compression and data
translation functions are being performed by network equipment.
A third important technological change over the past 10 to 15 years has
been the accelerating replacement of analog technology with digital technology
in transmission networks. In analog technology, information is converted to a
voltage or current wave form for processing or transmission. In digital
technology, information is converted to digital bits and then processed or
transmitted using computer based components.
The Company believes that, over the long term, a significant portion of new
equipment purchased by public network providers and private network customers
will utilize fiber optic transmission technology. The majority of such
equipment will employ digital technology and will
3
<PAGE>
require increasingly sophisticated (i.e., software intensive) switching and
network management systems.
PRODUCTS
The Company categorizes its products into the following groups:
TRANSMISSION PRODUCTS: Transmission products provide electronic and
optical signal generation over a telecommunications circuit. Certain of the
transmission products also provide access in order to monitor, test and reroute
circuits within telecommunications transmission systems. ADC's transmission
products are designed for use in copper-based, coax-based, fiber optic or
wireless transmission networks.
NETWORKING PRODUCTS: Networking products provide interconnection and
transportation of voice, data and video signals within a single customer
building or campus as well as network access to the public network. The
Company's networking products are designed for use in copper-based and fiber
optic networks.
BROADBAND CONNECTIVITY PRODUCTS: Broadband connectivity products provide
the physical contact points for connecting different telecommunications system
components and gaining access to telecommunications system circuits for the
purpose of installing, testing, monitoring or reconfiguring such circuits. A
majority of the Company's broadband connectivity products are designed for use
in copper based transmission networks, with the remainder designed for use in
coax, fiber optic and wireless transmission networks.
Historically, most of the Company's products have been used in connection
with copper-based telecommunications networks, reflecting the historical
installed base of equipment utilizing copper cable in domestic and international
telecommunications networks. As a direct result of this large installed base,
the Company expects that, for the foreseeable future, a substantial portion of
its existing and new broadband connectivity products will be sold to maintain
and improve the functionality of copper-based telecommunications systems.
Although the Company expects to continue to allocate considerable resources to
improving existing products and developing new products for these systems, it
will also devote significant resources to the development of coax,
4
<PAGE>
fiber optic and wireless products because the Company believes that such
products represent an increasing source of future growth of broadband
connectivity product revenues.
The percentages of total consolidated net sales attributable to each of the
Company's product groups and to fiber optic products in total for the past three
fiscal years are set forth in Part II, Item 7 hereof.
TRANSMISSION PRODUCTS
DIGITAL REPEATERS: The Company's copper based digital repeaters regenerate
digital signals that have degraded because of transmission over long distances,
primarily in central office applications. Digital repeaters are sold primarily
to telephone operating companies and other telecommunications common carriers.
TEST AND MONITORING SYSTEMS: The Company manufactures three remote digital
test and performance monitoring products. The T-Sentry[REGISTERED TRADEMARK]
system and SENTRY 45-TM- system provide non-intrusive remote network performance
monitoring and alarm surveillance on DS1 and DS3 signals. The Company's
NetStar[REGISTERED TRADEMARK] system, a remotely operable, intrusive T1 test and
monitoring system, is designed for high capacity T1 telephone central office
testing and private network facility management.
The Company has begun marketing its open systems-based FiberWatch-TM-
remote fiber test and surveillance system. The FiberWatch system provides a
database of installed fibers, performs scheduled and on-demand testing, and
provides mapping and graphing capability for location of faults in networks.
ADC also manufactures and sells the Logix operational support system, a
software system which enables the user to collect and report performance
monitoring data from a variety of ADC and other network and performance
monitoring equipment. The Logix system has an open system architecture that
supports various standards. It provides for the centralized management of ADC
test and monitoring systems and transport equipment, and is designed to
interface with higher level operational support systems used by public network

BROADBAND CONNECTIVITY PRODUCTS
JACKS, PLUGS AND PATCH CORDS: Jacks and plugs are the basic components
used to gain access to copper telecommunications circuits for testing and
maintenance. A jack is a connecting device to which the wires of a circuit are
attached and through which access to that circuit is obtained by the insertion
of the plug. This access permits the circuit to be monitored, tested or re-
routed (patched). Patch cords are wires or cables with a plug on each end. ADC
offers a complete
9
<PAGE>
line of jacks and plugs in the longframe and smaller bantam formats. The bantam
products are approximately half the size of the longframe products. The Company
also manufactures a line of jacks in both of these formats which are designed to
be mounted on printed circuit boards wherever access points are required, as
well as a line of coaxial jacks and plugs used for gaining access to high
frequency circuits.
ADC incorporates its jacks, plugs and patch cords into its own products and
also sells them in component form primarily to OEMs, whose products are used by
telephone operating companies and other companies providing communication
services. These components are generally manufactured to industry-recognized
compatibility and reliability standards as off-the-shelf items.
JACKFIELDS AND PATCH BAYS: A jackfield is a module containing an assembly
of jacks wired to terminal blocks or connectors and used by telecommunications
companies to gain access to copper communication circuits for testing or
patching the circuits. ADC manufactures jackfields in both longframe and bantam
formats, including prewired and connectorized models. When testing a large
number of circuits, series of jackfields are combined in specialized rack
assemblies, which often may include test modules. These assemblies are called
patch bays. ADC manufactures a range of jackfields and patch bays in various
configurations. The Company's analog jackfields and analog and digital patch
bays are sold primarily to OEMs, telephone operating companies and other
telecommunications common carriers. The Company also manufactures and sells
specialized jackfields for use in audio and video transmission networks in the
broadcast industry.

which combines internal development efforts with acquisition, joint venture,
licensing or marketing arrangements relating to new products and technologies
from sources outside the Company. Development and product engineering expenses
for fiscal 1994, 1993 and 1992 were $48,974,000, $40,988,000 and $36,063,000,
respectively (approximately 10.9%, 11.2% and 11.4%, respectively, of
consolidated net sales).
The Company's product development program emphasizes the innovative
application of existing technology in the design of new products rather than the
research and development of new technology. The Company's product development
group works closely with marketing personnel in an effort to determine emerging
user needs in the telecommunications market and continually reviews and
evaluates technological changes affecting this market.

Corporation.
13
<PAGE>
The Company's products are sold in the United States by approximately 119
field sales representatives located in 26 sales offices throughout the country,
and by several dealer organizations and distributors. The Company also has a
customer service group, which supports field sales personnel and is responsible
for application engineering, customer training, entering orders and supplying
delivery status information, and a field service engineering group, which
provides on-site service to customers.
The Company also markets its products outside the U.S. primarily to
telephone operating companies and cable TV companies in the public
telecommunications networks of Canada, Mexico, South America, Europe, Australia,
New Zealand, Russia and the Asian region. The Company sells its products to
foreign customers through 23 Company-employed field salespersons, eight foreign
independent sales representatives and 77 foreign distributors, as well as
through U.S. public and private network providers who also distribute outside
the U.S. On October 31, 1994, the Company's foreign distribution network was
selling products in 60 nations throughout the world. To date, the principal
foreign market for the Company's products has been Canada. The Company has
wholly-owned subsidiaries in Canada, Mexico, Venezuela, the United Kingdom,
Belgium, Australia and Singapore. The Company's foreign sales offices are
located in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Vancouver, Mexico City, Caracas, London,
Brussels, Sydney and Singapore.

1993 and 1992 were $67,113,000, $58,919,000, and $49,347,000, respectively
(approximately 15.0%, 16.1% and 15.6%, respectively, of consolidated net sales).
The Company warrants most of its products against defects in materials and
workmanship under normal use and service for periods of up to 15 years. To
date, the Company's warranty experience has been favorable, with a low rate of
product return.
COMPETITION
Competition in the telecommunications products market is intense. The
Company manufactures, markets and sells products similar to those manufactured
by numerous other
14
<PAGE>
companies, some of which, such as AT&T Technologies, Inc. and Switchcraft, Inc.,
a subsidiary of Raytheon Company, have greater resources than those available to
the Company. The Company also faces increasing competition from a number of
other smaller competitors. The Company believes its success in competing with
other manufacturers of telecommunications products depends primarily on its
engineering, manufacturing and marketing skills, the price, quality and
reliability of its products, and its delivery and service capabilities.
The Company's Fibermux subsidiary competes with a number of other
companies, two of which are dominant in its intelligent wiring hub markets, and
faces both strong price competition and pressure from alternative distribution
strategies utilized by these other companies. The Company's Kentrox and ALS
subsidiaries compete with a number of companies, none of which is dominant.
The Company believes that technological change, the shift in network
traffic to data and video and continuing industry deregulation will continue to
cause rapid evolution in the competitive environment of the telecommunications
market, the full scope and nature of which is impossible to predict at this
time. The Company believes the most significant competitive effect of
continuing industry deregulation has been, and will continue for the immediate
future to be, the creation of new opportunities for suppliers of
telecommunications products like the Company. The Company expects, however,
that such opportunities will attract increased competition from others as well.
In addition, the Company expects that AT&T Technologies, Inc. will continue to
be a major supplier to the Bell Operating Companies, and is competing more
extensively outside the Bell system. The Company also believes that the rapid
technological changes which characterize the telecommunications industry will
continue to make the markets in which the Company competes attractive to new
entrants.
MANUFACTURING AND SUPPLIES
The manufacturing process for the Company's electronic products consists
primarily of assembly and test of electronic systems built from fabricated
parts, printed circuit boards and electronic components. The manufacturing
process for the Company's electromechanical products
15
<PAGE>
consists primarily of fabrication of jacks, plugs, and other basic components
from raw materials, assembly of components and testing. The Company's sheet
metal, plastic molding, stamping and machining capabilities permit the Company
to configure components to customer demand.
The Company purchases raw materials and component parts, consisting
primarily of copper wire, optical fiber, steel, brass, nickel-steel alloys,
gold, plastics, printed circuit boards, solid state components, discrete
electronic components and similar items, from several suppliers. Although a
number of components used by the Company are single-sourced, the Company has
experienced no significant difficulties to date in obtaining adequate quantities
of these raw materials and component parts. The Company believes that
alternative sources of supply exist, or can be developed without causing
significant delays, for all of its raw materials and component parts.
PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
The Company owns a number of United States and foreign patents relating to
its products. These patents, in the aggregate, constitute a valuable asset of
the Company. The Company, however, believes that its business is not dependent
upon any single patent or any group of related patents.
The Company has registered the initials ADC alone and in conjunction with
specific designs as trademarks in the United States and various foreign
countries.

--------- ----- --------- ----- --------- -----
</TABLE>
The 1994 and 1993 increases in net sales of transmission products are
attributable to sales of new products, primarily to public telecommunications
network providers. If the Company's new transmission products (products
introduced within the last three years) and continuing transmission product
enhancements meet with reasonable market acceptance, the Company anticipates
that net sales of transmission products will grow as a percentage of the
Company's total net sales.
The 1994 and 1993 increases in net sales of networking products primarily
represent increased sales of public network access equipment to private network
customers. The Company has recently introduced certain new networking products
employing Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technology and has additional ATM
networking introductions planned for 1995. If these products meet with
reasonable market acceptance, Company management anticipates continued strong
growth for the networking product group.
Within the broadband connectivity product group, net sales of ADC's digital
signaling cross-connect (DSX) modules and bays have declined as a percentage of
total net sales to 27.2% in 1994 from 28.7% in 1993 and 29.0% in 1992. Although
these products currently account for a substantial portion of the Company's
revenues, management believes that future sales of DSX and other copper products
utilizing telephone jacks will continue gradually to decline as a percentage of
total net sales primarily due to the ongoing evolution of technologies within
the telecommunications marketplace (see Item 1 Business -- The
Telecommunications Market) and the addition of new products to the ADC product
portfolio. As a result, the Company anticipates that net sales of the broadband
connectivity product group will continue gradually to decline as a percentage of
the Company's total net sales.
24
<PAGE>
Net sales of fiber optic products represented 34.8%, 34.2% and 29.9% of
total net sales in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. These year-to-year
increases reflect the Company's increasing emphasis on development and marketing
of fiber optic products. Management anticipates increasing the Company's fiber
optic product offerings which should expand total sales of such products.
GROSS PROFIT: The 1994 decrease in gross profit percentage, to 50.7% of
net sales, primarily reflects a less favorable product sales mix in 1994. The
slight 1993 increase in gross profit percentage to 51.2% of net sales, from
51.0% of net sales in 1992 primarily reflects a more favorable product sales
mix, successful manufacturing cost reduction efforts and higher net sales
volumes in 1993.
OPERATING EXPENSES: Total operating expenses represented 36.4%, 37.4% and
39.7% of net sales in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The lower 1994 and
1993 levels primarily reflect effective cost controls, higher net sales levels
and the absence of the 1992 personnel reduction charge, which represented 1.2%
of net sales in that year.
The 19.5% and 13.7% increases in development and product engineering
expenses in 1994 and 1993, respectively, also reflect significant investments in
new product development. The Company has been able to maintain its development
and product engineering expenses as a relatively constant percentage of net
sales during the 1992 to 1994 period by planning for and controlling such
expenditures.
The 18.7% and 12.5% increases in selling and administrative expenses in
1994 and 1993, respectively, also reflect increased marketing and selling
activities associated with new product introductions and expansion of markets,
and growth of the Company which has resulted in higher compensation expenses,
including increased incentive-based and stock-based compensation. Due to
effective management of expenditures, the Company has decreased its ratio of
selling and administration expenses as a percentage of net sales over the three-
year period.
Company management has reclassified amortization of goodwill expense from
"other expense" to "operating expenses" to conform with internal financial
performance measurement. This expense represents amortization of the goodwill
portions of the Fibermux, Kentrox and ALS acquisition prices, beginning at their
respective acquisition dates.
The major technological changes underway in the telecommunications industry
(see Item 1 Business -- The Telecommunications Market) will require the Company
to continue investing significantly in product development. Company management
recognizes the need to balance the
25
<PAGE>
cost of product development with expense control and remains committed to
minimizing the rate of increase of such expenses.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET: The interest income (expense) category
reflected net interest income earned on cash balances during 1994 and 1993 and
net interest expense during 1992. (See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below
for a discussion of cash levels.)
INCOME TAXES: See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included
in Part II, Item 8 of this report for a reconciliation of the federal statutory
tax rate to effective tax rates of 37.0%, 36.4% and 39.5% in 1994, 1993 and
1992, respectively. In addition to the non-deductible goodwill amortization
amounts discussed above which impact all three years, the 1994 and 1993 rates
reflect a 1% higher federal statutory rate as well as the beneficial impact of
tax credits. The 1994 increase in rate also reflects the lower impact of tax
credits on higher 1994 pre-tax income.
Effective November 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS No.
109 requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities or assets for the
expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and
tax bases of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 109 was adopted prospectively and
the cumulative impact of adoption was not material.
EXTRAORDINARY ITEM: The extraordinary charge of $1,450,000, net of income
taxes, or $.05 per share, recorded in the quarter ended January 31, 1994,
represents the charge to clean up and repair the damage from an earthquake at
the ADC Fibermux facility in California.
NET INCOME: As a result of all of the items discussed above, net income
for the year ended October 31, 1994 of $39,071,000, or $1.41 per share,
represented a 23.5% increase over net income for the year ended October 31, 1993
of $31,636,000, or $1.15 per share. Net income for 1993 represented a 50.5%
increase from 1992 net income of $21,026,000, or $.78 per share.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents, primarily short-term investments in commercial
paper with maturities of less than 90 days, increased $33,188,000 during 1994
and decreased $4,160,000 and
26
<PAGE>
$9,625,000 during 1993 and 1992, respectively. The 1994 increase primarily
reflects increased cash provided from operating activities and the absence of
debt repayments, offset by the $7,087,000 first quarter 1994 contingent
acquisition payment for ALS. ADC currently has no contingent acquisition
purchase price arrangements outstanding. In 1993 and 1992, property and
equipment additions and long-term debt repayments, offset by cash generated from
operating activities, represented the majority of the decreases. During the
three years ended October 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, property and equipment
additions net of retirements totaled $21,788,000, $21,243,000 and $15,780,000,
respectively.
The Company may borrow up to $40 million under revolving credit agreements.
Borrowings under these agreements bear interest at floating short-term market
rates, can be repaid any time without penalty and can be converted to term loans
bearing interest principally at the prime rate, payable in annual installments
through December 2000. In May 1991, the Company's acquisition of Fibermux was
partially financed by borrowing the total $40 million. The full $40 million was
outstanding until April 1992, when the Company began repaying the debt. All
debt was repaid by April 1993. At October 31, 1994, the entire $40 million of
borrowings under these agreements was available to the Company and its long-term
debt to total capitalization ratio was .2%. The long-term debt to total
capitalization ratio was .4% at October 31, 1993.
Management expects that cash generated from operating activities plus
borrowings available under revolving credit agreements will be adequate to fund
operating requirements and property and equipment expenditures in 1995. However,
management recognizes the dynamic nature of the telecommunications industry and
the possibility that one or more of the Company's product initiatives may
achieve strong market acceptance during the year. In such event, the Company
would consider appropriate financing alternatives. Total property and equipment
additions for 1995 are expected to be approximately $30 million.

of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and schedules 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 ADC Telecommunications, Inc.
and Subsidiaries as of October 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
October 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules to
consolidated financial statements are presented for purposes of complying with
the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the basic
consolidated financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic consolidated financial
statements and, in our opinion, fairly state in all material respects the
financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

ADC TELECOMMUNICATIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS - The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of ADC Telecommunications, Inc. (a Minnesota corporation) and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, referred to collectively herein as the Company.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated
in consolidation.
The Company designs, manufactures and markets a broad range of
transmission, and networking systems, and physical connectivity products
for broadband telecommunications networks utilizing copper, coax, fiber
optic and wireless transmission methods. Revenue is recognized at the time
of shipment. Export sales were $67,113,000, $58,919,000, and $49,347,000
in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash equivalents primarily represent short-term
investments in commercial paper with maturities of three months or less.
These investments are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets at cost, which approximates market.
INVENTORIES - Inventories include material, labor and overhead and are
stated at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. Inventories at
October 31 consisted of:

Purchased materials and manufactured
products $ 57,031 $ 42,889
Work-in-process 7,172 5,389
--------- ---------
$ 64,203 $ 48,278
--------- ---------
--------- ---------
</TABLE>
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
Additions and improvements to property and equipment are capitalized at
cost while maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to operations as
incurred.
Depreciation charges are computed using the straight-line method for
financial reporting purposes and both straight-line and accelerated methods
for income tax purposes. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is
provided over the following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Years
-----
<S> <C>
Buildings and improvements 5-30
Machinery and equipment 3-10
Furniture and fixtures 3-10
</TABLE>
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES - The excess of the cost over the net assets
of acquired businesses (goodwill of $77,000,000 at October 31, 1994 and
1993) is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years. Related
accumulated amortization at October 31, 1994 and 1993 was $11,788,000 and
$8,653,000, respectively. Other intangibles are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 5 years.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS - The Company's policy is to expense all
research and development costs in the period incurred.
WARRANTY COSTS - The Company warrants most of its products against defects
in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for periods
extending to fifteen years. Historically, warranty costs have been
insignificant. The Company maintains reserves for warranty costs based on
this experience.

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):
EARNINGS PER SHARE - Earnings per share is computed using the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the year, after
consideration of the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock
awards.
RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform to the current year financial statement presentation. These
reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of
operations or stockholders' investment.
(2) EXTRAORDINARY ITEM:
The building that serves as headquarters for Fibermux Corporation
(Fibermux), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, suffered damage as a
result of the earthquake that struck Los Angeles on January 17, 1994. The
facility sustained damages of $2,300,000 (net of the related $850,000 tax
benefit). All operations resumed by February 8, 1994.
(3) ACQUISITIONS:
Effective May 6, 1991, the Company acquired Fibermux. During the third
quarter of 1990, the Company acquired technology and other assets of TELINQ
Systems Incorporated and the stock of American Lightwave Systems, Inc.
(ALS). Payments related to these acquisitions through October 31, 1994
totalled $74,050,000.
These acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases. Accordingly, the
total purchase prices were allocated to the net assets acquired based on
estimated fair values at the dates of the acquisitions. The excess of
cost over the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill. The
results of operations have been included in the Consolidated Statements of
Income from the respective acquisition dates. The inclusion of financial
data for these acquisitions prior to the dates of acquisition would not
have materially affected reported results.
(4) DEBT:
The Company has revolving credit agreements which permit borrowing up to
$40,000,000 on an unsecured basis, principally at prevailing market rates
of interest. The agreements require, among other matters, that the Company
meet certain defined net worth, interest coverage and liability to equity
ratios, and restrict cash dividends. The Company was in compliance with
these covenants at October 31, 1994. The Company pays commitment fees
based upon the average unused amounts of the commitments. There are no
compensating balance requirements.
In May 1991, the Company borrowed $40,000,000 under the revolving credit
agreements to partially finance the acquisition of Fibermux. The debt
outstanding under such agreements was repaid during 1993 and 1992. There
was no outstanding debt under these agreements during 1994. The weighted
average annual interest rates during the period borrowings were outstanding
were 4.9%, and 5.3% for 1993 and 1992, respectively.
At October 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company had a mortgage note payable of
$810,000 and $1,100,000 respectively, collateralized by certain land,
buildings and equipment. The note is payable in annual installments of
approximately $400,000 through 1996 and bears interest at a rate of 7.55%.

(5) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED):
The Company also maintains supplemental defined benefit retirement plans
for members of the Board of Directors and for certain officers. The cost
of these plans was $352,000, $210,000 and $257,000 for 1994, 1993 and
1992, respectively.
RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN - The Company has a voluntary plan of investment
available to any employee who has completed one year of service. The
Company contributes 1% of wages to the Retirement Savings Plan on behalf of
all employees covered under the plan. Based on Company performance, salary
deferrals up to 6% of wages are partially matched by the Company.
Employees are fully vested in salary deferrals and Company contributions at
all times. The contributions to this plan totalled $6,778,000,
$3,210,000, and $2,639,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. A portion
of the cash contributions is invested in the Company's stock by the Plan's
trustee.
STOCK AWARD PLANS - The Company maintains a Stock Incentive Plan which
provides for the granting of certain stock awards, including stock options
at fair market value and restricted shares, to key employees of the
Company.
The Company also maintains a Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan in
order to enhance the ability to attract and retain the services of
experienced and knowledgeable outside directors. The plan provides for
granting a maximum of 110,000 nonqualified stock options at fair
market value.
The Company issued shares of common stock to certain employees which are
restricted as to their transferability through October 31, 1996. The
market value of such stock at the date of issuance is being amortized over
the restricted period. The unamortized amount of the resulting deferred
compensation is recorded as a reduction of stockholders' investment. In
addition, the Company awarded stock retention bonuses which provide for
cash payments to offset the personal income taxes incurred upon the lapsing
of stock restriction. The compensation expense associated with this plan
was $3,213,000, $1,938,000, and $1,008,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.

(6) CAPITAL STOCK:
AUTHORIZED STOCK - The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of
common stock at 20 cents par value and 10,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, no par value. The Board of Directors has the power to determine the
dividend, voting, conversion and redemption rights of each series of
preferred stock which they may create. There are no preferred shares
issued.
STOCK SPLIT - On May 26, 1993, the Company declared a two-for-one stock
split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend paid June 28, 1993 to
shareholders of record as of June 15, 1993. The share and per share
information in the accompanying financial statements have been adjusted to
reflect the effect of the dividend.
SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN - The Company has a Shareholder Rights Plan which
provides that if any person or group acquires 20% or more of the Company's
common stock, each Right not owned by such person or group will entitle its
holder to purchase, at the Right's then-current purchase price ($16 2/3 at
October 31, 1994), common stock of the Company having a value of twice the
Right's purchase price. The Rights would not be triggered, however, if the
acquisition of 20% or more of the Company's common stock is pursuant to a
tender offer or exchange for all outstanding shares of the Company's common
stock which is determined by the Board of Directors to be fair and in the
best interests of the Company and its shareholders. If the Board of
Directors determines that a 10% shareholder's interest is likely to have an
adverse effect on the long-term interests of the Company and its
shareholders, the Rights may also become exercisable. The Rights are
redeemable at 1 2/3 cents any time prior to the time they become
exercisable. The Rights will expire on October 6, 1996 if not previously
redeemed or exercised.

(6) INCOME TAXES:
Effective November 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS
No. 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities or assets for
the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the
book and tax bases of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 109 was adopted
prospectively and the cumulative impact of adoption was not material.
The components of the provision for income taxes are as follows:

Total provision $ 23,800 $ 18,101 $ 13,700
-------- -------- --------
-------- -------- --------
</TABLE>
The Company records a reduction in income taxes payable for qualifying tax
credits in the year in which they occur.
The benefit for deferred taxes is primarily due to timing differences in
the tax deductibility of employee benefit plan costs, depreciation and
certain accrued expenses and reserves which are not yet deductible for
income tax purposes.
The effective income tax rate differs from the Federal statutory rate as
follows:
