NOTE 5 SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
Short-term investments consist of debt securities with maturities of less than
one year but greater than 90 days when purchased. The Company has classified
these securities as available for sale. Securities available for sale are
carried at fair market value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax,
reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity.
The amortized cost of debt securities classified as available for sale is
adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity.
Such amortization and interest are included in interest income. The cost of
securities sold is based on the specific identification method. The fair value
of securities held for sale approximated amortized cost; therefore, there are no
unrealized gains or losses as of September 30, 1996.
Short-term investments consist of the following:

NOTE 11 SPECIAL TAX REFUND DIVIDEND
The Company's Board of Directors has declared a special tax refund dividend to
be paid on December 20, 1996, to shareholders of record as of November 27, 1987.
The special tax refund relates to a long-standing tax refund claim which was
recently settled with the Internal Revenue Service. The federal refund in the
amount of $8,097, including interest and net of expenses, was received by the
Company on July 30, 1996. The dividend related to the net federal refund will be
$0.5227 per share. The dividend, if any, related to the State of Oregon refund
will be determined at such time as the refund is received by the Company.
Payment of the dividend to the Company's minority shareholders is scheduled for
December 20, 1996, to allow time to update mailing and tax reporting
information. The Company has prepaid $6,557 of the refunded amount to the
Company's majority shareholder as of the dividend date of record.
As it relates to this matter, the Company is obligated by past agreement to act
in the capacity of a conduit between the shareholders of record as of November
17, 1987, and the Federal and State of Oregon taxing authorities. As such, the
Company has not recorded the proceeds from the Federal refund in income or
shareholders' equity, nor will the Company reflect the payment of the dividend
in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity.

PART 1: FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Consolidated Financial Statements and
Notes thereto of the Company. The following information contains forward-looking
statements which involve certain risks and uncertainties. Actual results and
events may differ significantly from those discussed in the forward-looking
statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not
limited to, dependence on aerospace industry, uncertainty of emerging golf
market, highly competitive industry, substantial excess production capacity,
planned significant investment in electron beam furnace, dependence on essential
machinery and equipment and dependence on raw materials and services.
OVERVIEW
Historically, aerospace applications in both the commercial and military
sectors have accounted for a majority of U.S. titanium consumption. The
aerospace industry has been characterized by severe cyclicality, which has had a
significant impact on the sales and profitability of titanium producers,
including OREMET. The last cyclical peak for the titanium industry occurred in
the 1988-1990 period, when domestic industry mill product shipments averaged
over 50 million pounds per year. In 1991, U.S. titanium industry mill product
shipments declined by approximately 35% to 34 million pounds. This decline was
primarily due to lower demand resulting from a slump in commercial aerospace and
the curtailment or cancellation of military programs as the Cold War ended. Data
reported by the U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey ("USGS")
indicate that industry shipments reached approximately 36 million pounds in 1993
but dropped to about 35 million pounds in 1994.
The USGS reported that in 1995, U.S. industry shipments of titanium mill
products increased by 26% over 1994 levels to 44 million pounds, and mill
product shipments in the second quarter and first half of 1996 totaled
approximately 15 million pounds and 29 million pounds, respectively. The
improvement in industry shipments was the result of an increase in demand in the
commercial aerospace market and the emergence of new uses of titanium metal,
primarily in golf clubheads. Reported orders for new commercial aircraft have
increased significantly, particularly for wide body planes such as the Boeing
777, which use a greater percentage of titanium per plane than narrow body
aircraft. The Company believes that industry mill product shipments to the
commercial aerospace market increased by more than three million pounds to 20
million pounds in 1995. While shipments to the military industry have fallen
below delivery levels in the 1980's as a result of reduced defense budgets, this
decline has been offset by demand from new markets. The Company believes that in
1996, shipments to the golf market, which were 1.5 million pounds in 1994, will
be approximately 9 million pounds and be greater than shipments to the entire
military sector.
The Company's twelve-month order backlog has increased from $65 million as
of September 30, 1995 to $160 million as of September 30, 1996. OREMET's backlog
is based on firm purchase orders scheduled for delivery during the subsequent
twelve-month period. Beginning in the second half of 1995 and continuing to the
present, the Company has experienced a significant increase in requests for
quotations as well as increased orders and prices on accepted orders. The
increase in demand is primarily a result of the recovery in the commercial
aerospace market and the growth of the golf clubhead market. Because of the
strong demand, the Company has been increasingly selective in the new orders
that it accepts.
In 1995, the increase in demand for titanium products resulted in higher
prices for certain raw materials used by the Company, including titanium scrap,
titanium sponge and alloying materials. During 1995, the Company's profitability
was negatively impacted by higher raw material costs and fixed price long-term
sales agreements with certain customers, primarily in the commercial aerospace
industry. The Company recorded a $4.4 million provision in the fourth quarter of
1995 to recognize anticipated losses on existing long-term agreements ("LTAs")
as a result of higher raw material costs. During the first nine months of 1996,
the Company incurred losses of $0.9 million on certain of its LTA's, reducing
its accrual for future losses to $3.6 million at September 30, 1996. Starting
with the first quarter of 1996, the Company added raw material surcharges in
order to more directly link changes in raw material costs to its contracts. The
Company has also instituted price increases for certain of its long-term sales
agreements which were entered into prior to 1996. However, there can be no
assurance as to the Company's continuing ability to recover raw material cost
increases. The future profitability of the Company's fixed price LTAs is subject
to change based upon the Company's costs of production.

On August 26, 1996, the Company completed an Offering of 4.6 million shares
of its common stock for a price of $23.75 per share. Proceeds from the Offering,
net of underwriting fees and expenses, totaled $103 million. The Company has
used approximately $18 million of the proceeds to pay down its U.S. revolving
credit agreement. The balance of the proceeds will be used to construct a new
electron beam furnace ("EB furnace"), expand the Company's distribution
business, and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth certain operating items of the Company's
consolidated results of operations as a percentage of net sales for each of the
years in the five-year period ended December 31, 1995, and for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 and 1996.

The following table presents the Company's unaudited consolidated quarterly
financial data for fiscal years 1994 and 1995, and the first, second, and third
quarters of 1996. Although the Company's business is not seasonal, growth rates
of sales have varied from quarter to quarter as a result of the purchase of TI
in September 1994, the timing of new products, industry cyclicality and general
U.S. and international economic conditions.

<F1> During the second quarter of 1995, the Company reported a pre-tax charge
to income of $1.3 million to reflect the impact of projected conversion
costs on long-term agreements which were in excess of selling price. During
the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company reported a pre-tax charge to income
of $4.4 million to reflect the impact of increased raw material costs on
long-term agreements.

COMPARISON OF THIRD QUARTER OF 1996 TO THIRD QUARTER OF 1995
- ------------------------------------------------------------
NET SALES. Net sales increased $23.5 million or 57% to $64.7 million for
the third quarter of 1996, compared to $41.2 million in the third quarter of
1995. The increase in sales was primarily driven by increased demand and higher
prices for both the Company's manufactured and service center products. Of the
$23.5 million net sales increase, $10.6 million was the result of volume
increases and $12.9 million from higher average selling prices.
TITANIUM SPONGE. During the third quarter of 1996, the Company's integrated
sponge facility operated at near capacity, primarily supplying the Company's
internal demand for titanium sponge as well as sales to RMI under a long-term
titanium sponge conversion agreement. Sales of titanium sponge and sponge
conversion services increased 81% to $4.0 million from $2.2 million for the
third quarter of 1996 compared to the third quarter of 1995.
11
<PAGE>
INGOT. Sales of ingot increased 85% to $11.5 million for the third quarter
of 1996 compared to $6.3 million for the third quarter of 1995. Ingot shipments
increased 47% and the average ingot price per pound increased 26%.
MILL PRODUCTS. Mill product sales increased 86% to $27.2 million for the
third quarter of 1996 compared to $14.6 million for the third quarter of 1995.
Shipments of mill products increased 35% and the average price per pound
increased 38%. Sales to producers of aerospace components and golf clubheads are
responsible for a substantial portion of the growth in mill product sales.
CASTINGS. Sales of castings increased 11% to $2.6 million for the third
quarter of 1996 compared to $2.4 million for the third quarter of 1995.
DISTRIBUTION. During the third quarter of 1996, sales of service center
products increased 32% to $18.0 million compared to $13.7 million for the third
quarter of 1995. The increase in sales was due to increased shipments and
favorable pricing and product mix.
COST OF SALES AND GROSS PROFIT. Cost of sales for the third quarter of 1996
increased 31% to $48.5 million, compared to $37.1 million in the third quarter
of 1995. The primary reason for the increase in cost of sales were increased
shipments. However, the Company's gross profit margin increased to 25.1% for the
third quarter of 1996 from 9.9% for the third quarter of 1995, as a result of
higher prices and improved production efficiencies.
RESEARCH, TECHNICAL AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. Research, technical
and product development expenses ("RT&D") increased 15% to $0.5 million for the
third quarter of 1996 compared to $0.4 million for the comparable quarter of
1995.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $2.4 million, or 67%, for the third
quarter of 1996 to $5.9 million from $3.5 million in the comparable quarter of
1995. As a percentage of sales, SG&A increased to 9.1% in the third quarter of
1996 from 8.6% in the third quarter of 1995.
INTEREST INCOME. Net proceeds from the Offering have been invested in
short-term marketable securities, which is the primary factor giving rise to the
increase in interest income. (See Notes 4 and 5 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.)
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased $0.1 million to $0.5 million
in the third quarter of 1996 compared to the third quarter of 1995. In August
1996, the Company paid down its U.S. revolving credit agreement with funds
received from the Offering (Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Additionally, proceeds from the Special Tax Refund (Note 11 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements) reduced the level of the Company's borrowings for the
quarter. As a result of the Offering, management anticipates interest expense
will be significantly reduced.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Company reported a provision for income
taxes of $2.8 million, or an effective tax rate of 29.6% (on income before
income taxes and minority interests) for the third quarter of 1996 compared to a
tax benefit of $0.2 million, or an effective tax benefit rate of 35% for the
comparable period in 1995. The difference between the federal and state combined
statutory tax rate of 39.5% and the effective tax rate of 29.6% for the third
quarter of 1996 is primarily due to a change in the Company's deferred tax asset
valuation allowance, reflecting the belief that it is more likely than not that
the deferred tax assets will be realized by the Company.
NET INCOME. The Company reported net income of $6.4 million, $0.48 per
share, for the third quarter of 1996 compared to a net loss of $0.4 million,
$0.04 per share, for the comparable period in 1995.
COMPARISON OF FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 1996 TO FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
NET SALES. Net sales increased $67.6 million, or 63% to $174.8 million in
the first nine months of 1996, compared to $107.2 million in 1995. The increase
in sales was primarily driven by increased demand and higher prices for both the
Company's manufactured and service center products. Of the $67.6 million sales
increase, $34.6 million was the result of volume increases and $33.0 million
from higher average selling prices.
TITANIUM SPONGE. During the first nine months of 1996, the Company's
integrated sponge facility operated at near capacity, primarily supplying the
Company's internal demand for titanium sponge as well as sales to RMI under a
long-term titanium sponge conversion agreement. Sales of titanium sponge and
sponge conversion services increased 69% to $11.8 million from $7.0 million for
the first nine months of 1996 compared to the first nine months of 1995. Sponge
shipments increased 66% and the average sponge price per pound was substantially
unchanged. The Company projects that it will continue to operate its sponge
facility at near capacity with substantially all production being utilized for
internal consumption or for supply to RMI (approximately 39% of capacity in
1996). The Company is presently supplementing its sponge production with
purchases from other producers.
12
<PAGE>
INGOT. Sales of ingot increased 109% to $33.2 million for the first nine
months of 1996 compared to $15.9 million for the first nine months of 1995.
Ingot shipments increased 67% and the average ingot price per pound increased
25%. The Company operated its melt facilities at near capacity during the first
nine months of 1996 and expects to continue to do so for the remainder of 1996.
The Company produces ingot for both internal use in its mill products division
and for sale primarily to aerospace customers.
MILL PRODUCTS. The Company produces or contracts for outside production a
variety of mill products including: billet, bar, plate, sheet and engineered
parts. Mill product sales increased 90% to $65.5 million for the first nine
months of 1996 compared to $34.4 million for the first nine months of 1995.
Shipments of mill products increased 40% and the average price per pound
increased 37%. Sales to producers of aerospace components and golf clubheads are
responsible for a substantial portion of the growth in mill product sales.
CASTINGS. Sales of castings increased 36% to $7.3 million for the first
nine months of 1996 compared to $5.4 million for the first nine months of 1995.
The Company is operating at a higher production rate in 1996 and is expanding
its casting facilities.
DISTRIBUTION. The Company's service centers market a wide variety of mill
products including engineered parts that are manufactured by various producers.
During the first nine months of 1996, sales of service center products increased
31% to $52.7 million compared to $40.4 million for the first nine months of
1995. The increase in sales was due to increased shipments and favorable pricing
and product mix.
COST OF SALES AND GROSS PROFIT. Cost of sales for the first nine months of
1996 increased 45% to $133.9 million, compared to $92.5 million in the first
nine months of 1995. The primary reason for the increase in cost of sales was
increased shipments. The Company's gross profit margin increased to 23.4% for
the first nine months of 1996 from 13.7% for the first nine months of 1995, as a
result of higher prices and improved production efficiencies.
RESEARCH, TECHNICAL AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. RT&D increased by
$0.3 million for the first nine months of 1996 to $1.5 million from the
comparable nine-month period of 1995. The main focus of RT&D is to develop
enhanced production procedures, provide customers with required technical
support and develop new products and markets. RT&D works jointly on projects
with customers, research agencies and universities.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. SG&A increased $4.6 million,
or 44%, for the first nine months of 1996 to $15.1 million from $10.5 million in
the comparable nine-month period of 1995. The increase is primarily a result of
additional employees hired to support the increase in operating activity. As a
percentage of sales, SG&A decreased to 8.6% in the first nine months of 1996
from 9.8% in the first nine months of 1995.
INTEREST INCOME. Net proceeds from the Offering have been invested in
short-term marketable securities, which is the primary factor giving rise to the
increase in interest income. (See Notes 4 and 5 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.)
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $0.2 million to $1.8 million
in the first nine months of 1996 compared to the first nine months of 1995,
resulting from an increase in borrowing needed to fund expanded operating
levels. Proceeds from the Offering (Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements) and Special Tax Refund (Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements) reduced the level of the Company's borrowings in August and
September 1996.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Company reported a provision for income
taxes of $7.0 million, or an effective tax rate of 31% (on income before income
taxes and minority interests) for the first nine months of 1996 compared to $0.5
million, or an effective tax rate of 38% for the comparable period in 1995. The
difference between the federal and state combined statutory tax rate of 39.5%
and the effective tax rate of 31% for the first nine months of 1996 is primarily
due to a change in the Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance,
reflecting the belief that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax
assets will be realized by the Company.
NET INCOME. The Company reported net income of $15.0 million, $1.24 per
share, for the first nine months of 1996 compared to net income of $0.5 million,
$0.05 per share, for the comparable period in 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
OVERVIEW.
---------
Net cash used in operating activities totaled $6.8 million for the first
nine months of 1996 and 1995. For the first nine months of 1996, the Company
reported net income of $15.0 million, compared to $0.5 million for the
comparable period of 1995. Increases in sales and the sales backlog accounted
for the increased levels of accounts receivable and inventory, which represented
the primary uses of cash for the nine-month period. Working capital increases
required to support the sharp increase in operating levels were responsible for
the most significant portion of the cash used by the Company's operating
activities. The increase in the amount of working capital used in operating
activities is a trend which began in the second quarter of 1994, consistent with
the Company's experience of increasing sales, sales order backlog and
production.
During the first nine months of 1996 and 1995, the Company incurred $5.5
million and $1.8 million in expenses relating to its Stock Compensation Plans
and Savings Plan. Liabilities arising under these plans are satisfied by issuing
shares of the Company's common stock. Increases in the average market value of
the Company's common stock and in the number of eligible employees are the
primary factors for the 1996 increase.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $12.0 million for the first
nine months of 1996 compared to $1.6 million for the first nine months of 1995.
Proceeds from the Offering were utilized to purchase $9.8 million in short-term
investments. The Company's additions to property, plant and equipment totaled
$2.4 million and $1.1 million in the first nine months of 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $88.9 million for the
first nine months of 1996, compared to $7.6 million for the comparable period of
1995. Net proceeds received from an offering of the Company's common stock
totaled $103 million (Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The
Company used $18 million of the proceeds from the Offering to pay down its U.S.
revolving credit agreements.
REVIEW OF SIGNIFICANT WORKING CAPITAL ACCOUNTS.
-----------------------------------------------
MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS. Proceeds from the
Offering (Notes 4, 5, and 10 to Consolidated Financial Statements) have been
invested in a portfolio of highly-liquid debt securities. The Company reported
$79.3 million in marketable debt securities and short-term investments as of
September 30, 1996.
INVENTORIES. Inventories increased by $27.8 million, or 42% during the
first nine months of 1996, to $93.9 million, while they increased $6.7 million,
or 13.7%, to $55.7 million during the comparable period of 1995. In addition to
an increase in finished goods inventory, increases in raw materials and
work-in-process have been made in support of higher production levels. In
response to a growing sales backlog, the Company is continuing to raise its
production levels. The Company is also experiencing higher raw material and
conversion costs, which have increased the cost of the Company's inventory.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. Accounts receivable increased by $11.2 million, or
43%, during the first nine months of 1996 to $37.1 million, while they increased
by $8.9 million, or 44% to $29.4 million during the comparable period of 1995.
The increase in accounts receivable is consistent with the Company's increase in
sales volume.
BOOK OVERDRAFT. The Company had a book overdraft at September 30, 1996,
December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1995 of $4.9 million, $2.0 million, and $0.0
million, respectively. The book overdraft represents Company checks which have
been disbursed and are in transit as of the end of the reporting period.
ACCOUNTS PAYABLE. Accounts payable at September 30, 1996 and 1995 were
$15.9 million compared to $17.0 million at December 31, 1995.
ACCRUED PAYROLL AND RELATED LIABILITIES. Accrued payroll and employee
benefits increased by $3.9 million, or 58% during the first nine months of 1996
to $10.5 million, while they increased by $2.7 million, or 40% to $5.6 million
during the comparable period of 1995. For the first nine months of 1996,
accruals related to the Company's Cash Bonus Program and Stock Appreciation
Rights Plan accounted for a substantial portion of the increase. For the first
nine months of 1995, accruals related to the Company's Stock Compensation Plan
and Savings Plans accounted for a substantial portion of the increase.

CREDIT AGREEMENTS.
------------------
The Company may borrow up to $35 million under the terms of a U.S.
revolving credit agreement with BankAmerica Business Credit, Inc. ("BABC"). The
U.S. credit agreement expires in September 1997. There was no balance
outstanding under the credit agreement as of September 30, 1996. As of September
30, 1996, interest charged under the credit agreement was calculated based on
BABC's reference rate plus 1.5% or a borrowing option based on LIBOR plus 2.5%.
The Company intends to seek a new $50 million U.S. credit facility.
Titanium International Limited, a subsidiary of TI, has a short-term credit
facility with Midland Bank plc, in the U.K., permitting borrowings of
approximately L2.3 million (approximately $3.6 million at current exchange
rates). The U.K. credit agreement is subject to renewal on December 31, 1996.
The balance outstanding under the U.K. credit agreement as of September 30, 1996
was $2.3 million.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES.
---------------------
The Company intends to use approximately $32 million of the net proceeds
from the Offering for the construction, equipment and facility costs for a new
EB furnace and related upgrade of scrap reprocessing facilities. The
construction and production ramp-up periods are expected to take approximately
18 months with approximately $4 million expended in 1996 (design and procurement
phases), $20 million in 1997 (construction phase) and approximately $8 million
1998 (testing phase).
The Company also intends to use approximately $15 million of the net
proceeds from the Offering to establish or purchase additional service centers
in the Pacific Rim, Northeastern United States and Southern Europe by the end of
1997. Currently, no potential acquisitions have been identified.
The Company anticipates that capital expenditures during 1996, including
the EB furnace (see the Offering, above), will approximate $9 million which will
be provided by both presently-available and internally-generated funds. Capital
expenditures required to maintain compliance with applicable environmental
regulations are included in the Company's capital expenditure plan to the extent
that they can be determined. The Company has no material open commitments which
obligate it to make future capital expenditures.
INCOME TAXES.
-------------
The Company anticipates that in 1996 it will fully utilize its federal net
operating loss carryforwards of $3.5 million and will pay federal taxes on any
remaining balance of its federal taxable income. The Company has a State of
Oregon net operating loss carryforward of $30.0 million which will limit the
amount of state taxes paid in 1996. In addition, the Company pays normal
franchise and income taxes in various other states and foreign jurisdictions.
ADEQUACY OF LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
--------------------------------------------
The Company's access to internally-generated cash, borrowing facilities and
the net proceeds from the Offering are expected to be sufficient to support the
Company's operating needs and to finance its continued growth, capital
expenditures and repayment of long-term debt obligations.
NON-U.S. OPERATIONS AND MONETARY ASSETS.
----------------------------------------
Approximately 8% of the Company's net sales for the first nine months of
1996 were derived from its service centers in the U.K., Germany, and France.
Changes in the value of non-U.S. currencies relative to the U.S. dollar cause
fluctuations in U.S. dollar financial position and operating results. The impact
of currency fluctuations on the Company was not significant in the first nine
months of 1996.
