NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

The Company is a leading worldwide supplier of computer-integrated measurement,
control and information systems for continuous manufacturing processes.  The
Company's systems are primarily used to control the manufacturing processes in
those industries in which the manufactured product is made in a flat sheet; e.g.
paper, plastics, nonwovens, aluminum, steel and rubber.

The Company provides measurement and control systems and services that enhance
the productivity and efficiency of its customers' processes and improve the
quality of its customers' products.  These integrated systems utilize sensors
and scanners to measure the quality properties of the product.  Software running
in computers and workstations use these measurements to provide control of the
process, computer graphic operator displays and management information.
Actuators are regulated by the software to provide precision adjustments to the
process.

The Company also provides management information systems which integrate the
manufacturing process with such functions as order entry, inventory control,
product tracking, production scheduling, shipping and invoicing.

The Company's systems use international industry communications and computing
standards which allow connectivity between the Company's systems and other
standards-based measurement and control products.

The following table shows the annual revenues and the percentages of annual
revenues during the last three fiscal years attributable to the sale of
computer-integrated measurement, control and information systems to the paper

PAPER SYSTEMS BUSINESS

In 1995, approximately 56% of the Company's revenues were generated from system
sales to the paper industry. The Company's systems are used to control the
production of practically all kinds of paper and paperboard products including:
fine paper used for stationary and books; xerographic paper for copy machines;
glossy stock for magazines; paperboard and linerboard for boxes; sack grades for
paper bags; newsprint and tissue.

In the paper industry, the Company's MXOpen(R) product line includes:

 .    Integrated Control Systems and Sensors
 .    Distributed Control Systems
 .    Cross Direction (CD) Profile Control Systems and Actuators
 .    Web Inspection Systems
 .    Integrated Machine Monitoring Systems
 .    Millwide Production and Information Management Systems

A key component of the Company's measurement and control systems is its
proprietary sensor technology. The Company currently offers a wide variety of
on-line sensors to its customers in the paper industry which measure many
aspects of product quality including basis weight, moisture, caliper, ash
content, coatweight, smoothness, gloss, formation, opacity, strength and color.
These on-line sensors, generally non-contacting, probe the product with
radiation from various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum including infrared,
visible light, beta, x-ray and gamma radiation.

The Company's web-inspection systems use Charge Couple Device (CCD) camera
technology to detect visual defects in paper and other web-produced material.

The Company is a leader in the complex technology of cross-direction (CD)
profile control.  The Company's Cross Direction Profile Control Systems and
Actuators allow precise control of paper characteristics in small segments
across the entire width of the sheet resulting in optimum quality levels,
reduced material and energy use and lower scrappage rates.

The Company's products are sold individually as add-ons or upgrades to existing
measurement and control systems (the Company or competitor systems) or as
complex integrated systems designed for specific applications or processes.  The
Company's systems are primarily sold by the Company's worldwide sales
organization.  In addition, the Company has established certain alliances and
OEM relationships to provide customers with turnkey paper automation projects.
The systems are generally installed at the customer's site by the Company's
worldwide service organization.

INDUSTRIAL SYSTEMS BUSINESS

In 1995, approximately 10% of the Company's revenues were generated from system
sales to customers in the plastics, nonwovens, aluminum, rubber and other
industries.  The Company's systems are used to control the materials used in or
the production of many products including:

 .   Plastics, films and coated products - candy wrap, magnetic media base, food
    and liquid packaging, vinyl products, labels and tapes.
 .   Nonwoven products - diaper liners, wipes, surgical drapes, roofing, filters,
    clothing, floor mats and carpet backing.
 .   Rubber products - tire fabrics, roofing, tank liners and belts.
 .   Aluminum products - beverage and food can stock, foil and siding.
 .   Other - chemical, fiberglass, plastic resin and pharmaceuticals.

The Company's MXOpen product offering to Industrial Systems' customers include:

 .    Measurement Control Systems (MCS) and Sensors
 .    Distributed Control Systems
 .    Profile Control Systems
 .    Web Inspection Systems

In December 1994, the Company acquired the Webart Division of The Ohmart
Corporation and its ConceptOne(R) measurement and control products.  This
acquisition added a low-priced PC based system to the Industrial Systems product
line, opening a new market for smaller plastics and sheet applications.

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
In January 1996, the Company acquired Data Measurement Corporation (DMC) a
manufacturer of measurement systems for the steel industry.  The Company intends
to expand DMC's gauging system into a full computer-integrated control and
information system.  Prior to the acquisition, the Company did not participate
in the steel market.

Industrial Systems products are distributed through the Company's worldwide
sales organization and other distribution channels such as OEMs, distributors
and agents.

SERVICE BUSINESS

In 1995, service revenues represented approximately 34% of the Company's total
revenue. The Company's worldwide sales and service organization supports
customers in both the paper and industrial systems businesses.  The Company has
over 4,000 systems installed in 54 countries, primarily located in North
America, South America, Europe and Asia.  The Company's service offering
includes both resident service contracts and on-demand service for spare parts,
preventive and emergency maintenance.  Value added services such as process
optimization and software enhancements are growing parts of this business.
Also, the Company maintains systems of its direct competitors as well as third
party non-competitive products.

RESEARCH AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

The Company's systems are the result of the integration of a number of complex
technologies including electronics, physics, mechanical design and software.
Central to the Company's strategic goals is a commitment to research and
development. The Company strongly believes the continued investment in new
product development is key to its long-term success.

During fiscal year 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company spent approximately $19.4
million, $20.0 million and $21.1 million, respectively, on research and
development. Those amounts represented 6%, 8% and 8%, respectively, of total
revenues and 9%, 13% and 14%, respectively, of system revenue.

BACKLOG

System backlog at December 3, 1995, was $143 million, 55% higher than the
backlog of $92 million at the end of fiscal 1994.  Approximately 90% of the $143
million year-end 1995 backlog is scheduled to be shipped during fiscal 1996.

PATENTS

The Company follows a policy of filing appropriate patent applications on
inventions it considers significant.  As of December 3, 1995, the Company had 69
United States patents and 132 foreign patents in effect.  Although important to
the business, the Company believes that the invalidity or expiration of any
single such patent would not have a material adverse effect on its operations.

SUPPLY OF MATERIALS AND PURCHASED COMPONENTS

The Company produces most of the application software, sensors, scanners,
digital logic circuits and actuators used in its systems.  Many components, such
as integrated circuits, video monitors, printers, cameras, disks, and
microcomputers are purchased from other manufacturers and integrated into the
systems.

The Company currently purchases certain components from single sources of
supply.  In each instance, components performing similar functions are available
from alternative sources, except for radioactive source material which is
available from only two suppliers.  Use of these alternative components might
require a change in the design of certain portions of the system which could
result in production delays, additional expenses and contract cancellations
while changing vendors.  The Company has contracts with certain vendors which
entitle, but do not require, the Company to purchase specific quantities of
components.

                                       4

COMPETITION

The market for process measurement and control is highly competitive and is
subject to technological change in both hardware and software development.  The
principal competitive factors in this market are product quality and
reliability, product features, customer support, corporate reputation and
relative price/performance.  The Company's competitive strategy is to provide
customers with greater economic results than available from competitors by
focusing on quality and the unique performance characteristics of the customers'
systems.  However, any inability of the Company to match or exceed the
price/performance or other features of the systems offered by its competitors
could adversely affect future operating results.

The Company's principal competition is from distributed control systems
suppliers and packaged system suppliers, as well as factory automation system
suppliers, many of which have substantially greater resources than the Company.
In the supervisory measurement and process control business area, competition
includes Asea Brown Boveri Process Automation Inc. (ABB); Lippke, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Honeywell; the Valmet Automation Group, a division of Valmet Oy;
and Yokogawa-YEW in Japan.  The distributed control system business area
competition includes Honeywell, Fisher, Foxboro (a subsidiary of Siebe, Inc.),
Siemens, and many other companies.  In the web-inspection products area, the
Company faces competition from ABB and other smaller companies.  Competition for
production management and process analysis and quality management is very
fragmented.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 3, 1995, the Company had approximately 2,360 full-time employees.
With the acquisition of DMC in January, 1996, the Company added approximately
340 full-time employees.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY LICENSES

In the United States, the Company and its customers are subject to licensing and
regulation by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) under the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (the Act) with respect of those parts of its products
and systems which utilize nuclear radiation.  The NRC has transferred a portion
of its licensing and regulatory functions to several state governments,
including California, pursuant to Section 274 of the Act.  The Company holds all
such licenses necessary for its current operations.  Licenses are renewed
periodically as required.

The Company also holds all necessary foreign licenses regarding nuclear
radiation for the applicable countries in which it operates.

United States customers possessing the Company's systems containing radioactive
sources hold the radioactive material under a General or Specific License issued
by their state or federal regulatory authority.  Similarly, foreign customers
hold licenses issued by their local authorities for radioactive material in the
Company's systems.

ENVIRONMENT

The operations of the Company involve the use of substances regulated under
various federal, state and international laws governing the environment.  It is
the Company's policy to apply strict standards for environmental protection to
sites inside and outside the U.S., even if not subject to regulations imposed by
local governments.  Liability for environmental remediation is accrued when it
is considered probable and costs can be reasonably estimated.  Environmental
expenditures are presently not material to the Company's operations or financial
position.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC OPERATIONS AND EXPORT SALES

The Company engages in operations in many foreign countries.  A large portion of
the Company's foreign business is in Europe, Canada, Latin America and Asia.

Although there are risks attendant to foreign operations, such as potential
nationalization of facilities, currency fluctuation and restrictions on movement
of funds, the Company has taken action to mitigate such risks.

For information regarding geographic operations in 1995, 1994, and 1993, see
"Business Segments" included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
in the Company's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders.

RISK FACTORS

The Company's future operations are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties including, but not limited to, the following:

Fluctuations in Quarterly Orders  -  The Company's quarterly orders have
fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future due to a
number of factors, including the timing of orders from its customers, changes in
pricing by the Company or its competitors, discount levels, new product
introductions by the Company or its competitors, foreign currency exchange
rates, and changes in the economic and political environments of the countries
and industries it serves.

Fluctuations in Financial Results  -  The Company's quarterly and annual
financial results have fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate significantly in
the future due to a number of factors, including the scheduling of factory
shipments, changes in pricing and discount levels, utilization levels of the
Company's manufacturing facilities and personnel, amount and growth in operating
expenses, changes in applicable tax rates, changes in product mix of system
revenue, amount of spares shipments, changes in interest rates, changes in
foreign currency exchange rates and the ability of the Company to mitigate the
impact of such changes with foreign currency forward contracts.

Cyclicality of the Paper Industry  -  A substantial portion of the Company's
sales have historically come from the paper industry.  While the Company has
recently expanded its presence in the industrial systems component of its
business through its acquisition of Data Measurement Corporation, the paper
industry will continue to account for most of the Company's revenues.  This
industry has in the past, and will likely in the future, be subject to
substantial cyclicality and economic downturns.  This cyclicality may in turn
materially impact the Company's order rate and results of operations.

Risks Associated with International Operations  -  A majority of the Company's
revenues are typically generated from sales outside of the United States.  The
Company's international orders, revenues and profitability are subject to
inherent risks including timing in obtaining import licenses and letters of
credit, fluctuations in local economies, difficulties in staffing and managing
foreign operations, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in
regulatory requirements, tariffs and other trade barriers, difficulties in
repatriation of earnings, and burdens of complying with a wide variety of
foreign laws.

Risks of Serving other Cyclical Industries  -  The Company's orders and
operating results are impacted by the capital expenditure cycles in the
plastics, rubber, non-wovens, aluminum and steel industries, all of which are
subject to substantial cyclicality.

Ability to Integrate Acquisitions  -  A key element of the Company's strategy
for growth is the acquisition of products that can be distributed through its
worldwide sales and service organization.  The success of this component of the
Company's strategy is dependent upon the ability of the Company to identify
acquisition candidates that meet its acquisition criteria, acquire the
acquisition target at a fair price, integrate the acquired operations into the
Company and implement its business plan after acquisition.  There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals in every
instance.

With the acquisition of DMC in January 1996, the Company also acquired an
additional 45,000 square feet leased facilities used by DMC  for offices,
research and manufacturing operations.

During 1995, the Company was productively utilizing the space in its facilities,
while disposing of space determined to be under-utilized.  The Company believes
current facilities provide adequate production capacity to meet the Company's
planned business activities.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or any of
its subsidiaries are a party or of which any of their property is the subject,
other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business.  Management
believes that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of
operations.

Measurex Corporation



Our report on the consolidated financial statements of Measurex Corporation and
Subsidiaries as of December 3, 1995 and November 27, 1994 and for each of the
three fiscal years in the period ended December 3, 1995, has been incorporated
by reference in this Form 10-K from page 30 of Measurex Corporation's 1995
Annual Report to Shareholders.  In connection with our audits of such financial
statements, we have also audited the related financial statement schedules
listed in the index on page 13 of this Form 10-K.

In our opinion, the financial statement schedules referred to above, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole,
present fairly, in all material respects, the information required to be
included therein.

                        MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN (MIP)
                        -------------------------------
                              MEASUREX CORPORATION
                              --------------------



OBJECTIVES
- ----------


    1.  To attract, motivate and retain key management personnel who can,
        through their collective and individual efforts, help achieve the
        Company's growth and profit objectives.


    2.  To provide the means for individual executives to share in the success
        of the Company to the extent that the Company is successful and their
        relative performance so warrants.



ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANTS
- ---------------------


    1.  Key management personnel eligible to participate in the program are
        determined each year by the Chairman and CEO and approved by the
        Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.


    2.  Each participant prepares a detailed set of objectives for the year.
        They should be as quantitative as possible. These objectives, when
        approved by the Chairman and CEO, will constitute the primary measure of
        performance during the year in question.



DETERMINATION OF INCENTIVE FUND
- -------------------------------


    1.  The total amount available for distribution to the MIP incentive fund is
        determined at the beginning of each year by the Compensation Committee
        of the Board of Directors. The total amount may not exceed 80% of all
        participants' base salaries. If the earned payout exceeds the capped
        payout of 80% of salaries, the difference may be accrued for
        distribution in the future as determined by the Compensation Committee.


    2.  The basis for determining each year's actual distribution to the MIP
        incentive fund is established and approved by the Compensation Committee
        of the Board of Directors annually. The basis is determined by a
        composite of factors critical to the company's performance and can
        include orders, sales and earnings growth; as well as inventory and
        receivables management.

MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN (MIP)
Page 2



DETERMINATION OF INDIVIDUAL AWARDS
- ----------------------------------

    1.  The Chairman and CEO will recommend to the Compensation Committee of the
        Board of Directors for approval the amount to be awarded each
        individual. The amount will be determined on the basis of appraisals
        measuring the relative contribution made by each eligible participant.


    2.  The award will be the composite result of a position factor and a
        performance rating.


    3.  Each position is given a position factor representing the relative
        opportunity of the incumbent of the position to contribute to the
        Company's major objectives under the Plan.


    4.  Each participant will be assigned a performance rating based on careful
        appraisal of performance against individualized objectives. The
        following scale will be used as a guide to provide numerical performance
        rating: 
        
        <TABLE>
        <CAPTION>
                  PERFORMANCE         SCALE
                  -----------         -----
                  <S>                 <C>
 
                  Outstanding             4
                  Superior                3
                  Above Standard          2
                  Standard                1
                  Below Standard          0
        </TABLE>

        Participants terminating within the fiscal year will receive "0"
        rating. Ratings may be in .1 increments.


    5.  Individual payouts from the fund will be distributed on the basis of the
        combination of the previously defined elements - Position Factor and
        Performance Ratings. The various Position Factors are multiplied by the
        Performance Rating on an individual basis and a number of "shares" of
        the Management Incentive Fund is derived for each participant.

Page 3



    6.  Modifications of awards can be proposed to the Compensation Committee of
        the Board of Directors when, in the judgment of the Chairman and CEO,
        such adjustments more fairly represent the relative contribution of
        eligible participants to Company objectives.


    7.  Participants who enter or leave the Plan during the fiscal year, but
        remain with the Company, will receive pro-rated shares based on the
        length of their participation.


    8.  Payments, assuming Compensation Committee approval, will be made as soon
        after the end of the fiscal year as possible. Audited financial results
        will be utilized. Payments under the Plan will be received in one lump
        sum.


    9.  The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors shall have the
        right to alter the fund, based upon extraordinary circumstances, which
        in their view are beyond the control of corporate management, to reflect
        the "true evaluation performance" relative to original plans.

   10.  After a participant has been with Measurex for one year, the company
        will make a pretax Automatic Contribution to the participant's account
        in the Measurex Retirement Result$ Plan. This contribution will reduce
        dollar-for-dollar the amount of the bonus paid under the Management
        Incentive Plan.

Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment.  This Amendment shall be deemed
incorporated into, and a part of, the Credit Agreement.

          (b)  This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors and assigns.  No
third party beneficiaries are intended in connection with this Amendment.

          (d)  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together
shall constitute but one and the same instrument.  Each of the parties hereto
understands and agrees that this document (and any other document required
herein) may be delivered by any party hereto either in the form of an executed
hard copy original or an executed original sent by facsimile transmission to be
followed promptly by mailing of a hard copy original, and that receipt by the
Agent of a facsimile transmitted document purportedly bearing the signature of a
Bank or the Company shall bind such Bank or the Company, respectively, with the
same force and effect as the delivery of a hard copy original.  Any failure by
the Agent to receive the hard copy executed original of such document shall not
diminish the binding effect of receipt of the facsimile transmitted executed
original of such document of the party whose hard copy original was not received
by the Agent.

          (e)  This Amendment, together with the Credit Agreement, contains the
entire and exclusive agreement of the parties hereto with reference to the
matters discussed herein and therein.  This Amendment supersedes all prior
drafts and communications with respect hereto.  This Amendment may not be
amended except in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01 of the Credit
Agreement.

          (f)  If any term or provision of this Amendment shall be deemed
prohibited by or invalid under any applicable law, such provision shall be
invalidated without affecting the remaining provisions of this Amendment or the
Credit Agreement, respectively.

          (g)  The Company covenants to pay to or reimburse the Agent and the
Banks, upon demand, for all costs and expenses (including allocated costs of in-
house counsel) incurred in connection with the development, preparation,
negotiation, execution and delivery of this Amendment.

System orders for 1995 were $270 million, which represented a 69% increase from
$160 million in 1994 and a 79% increase from $151 million in 1993.  This was the
highest order total in the Company's history. Paper Systems orders increased as
a result of the industry's rebound from recession and the Company's ongoing
efforts to expand its product offering through internal development and
acquisition. Industrial Systems orders increased as a result of the acquisition
of the Webart division of The Ohmart Corporation at the beginning of 1995 and
the Company's ongoing focus on this business.

The industry and geographic breakdown of system orders is as follows:

System backlog at the end of 1995 was $143 million, up from $92 million at the
end of 1994 and $91 million at the end of 1993.  Approximately 90% of the 1995
backlog is scheduled to be shipped in 1996.

System revenue was $220.3 million in 1995, a 41% increase from $156.3 million in
1994, and a 44% increase from $152.8 million in 1993.  The increase resulted
from the growth in orders.

Service and other revenue of $114.9 million increased 11% from $103.7 million in
1994 and 14% from $101.2 million in 1993. Growth in the installed base of
systems, additional process optimization services and foreign currency movements
accounted for the increase.

System margins for 1995 were 41% compared to 36% in 1994 and 35% in 1993.  This
improvement resulted from better utilization of existing capacity and fixed
overhead, a favorable product mix with higher margin products being sold and
improved pricing.

Service and other margins for 1995 were 38% compared to 37% in 1994 and 36% in
1993.  The continued improvement in service margins in 1995 and 1994 reflects
better utilization of field service resources as the installed base increases
and a wider range of services are sold to customers.

Product development costs of $19.4 million in 1995 decreased 3% and 8% from 1994
and 1993, respectively.  This reflected savings achieved from the restructuring
that took place in the fourth quarter of 1994.

Selling and administrative expense of $76.7 million for 1995 increased $13.3
million or 21% from 1994 and $15.6 million or 25% from 1993.  The increase
resulted from higher sales commissions, profit sharing and bonuses consistent
with the increase in the Company's revenue and income, additional sales
personnel to provide improved sales coverage, extra travel and stronger foreign
currencies.

As a result of these changes, earnings from operations for 1995 increased to
$36.7 million from $4.8 million in 1994 and $7.5 million in 1993.  The 1994
earnings from operations included a charge of $6.4 million relating to a
restructuring plan.

Interest expense of $2.8 million increased over the 1994 level of $1.3 million
and the 1993 level of $0.9 million as a result of higher debt levels during the
year.  Interest income of $7.0 million was $1.3 million higher than 1994 and
$0.8 million higher than 1993. The increase over 1994 was due to a smaller loss
on available-for-sale investments and interest income relating to a favorable
foreign tax settlement.

The effective tax rate for 1995 was 34% compared to 39% and 35% in 1994 and
1993, respectively.  The lower rate resulted from changes in the geographic mix
of earnings and the return to profitability in 1995 of several subsidiaries for
which no tax benefit for losses could be taken in 1994.

Net income for 1995 was $26.9 million, a $20.8 million increase from $6.1
million in 1994 and an increase of $18.7 million from $8.2 million in 1993.
Earnings per share for the year were $1.60 per share compared to $0.34 per share
in 1994 and $0.46 per share in 1993.

During October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 123(SFAS No.123), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."  This standard,
which establishes a fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based
compensation plans also permits an election to continue following the
requirements of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees"
with disclosures of pro forma net income and earnings per share under the new
method.  The Company is reviewing the alternatives under SFAS No. 123 but does
not expect there will be any effect on the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company. Disclosure requirements of SFAS No.123 will be
effective for the Company's fiscal year 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

Measurex continues to maintain a strong financial position with cash and cash
equivalents and short-term investments of $64.1 million as of the 1995 year-end.
In addition, the Company had unsecured revolving bank lines of credit available
of $88 million of which $12 million was committed to letters of credit.  The
Company believes that its existing cash balances, lines of credit and cash
provided by operations will provide adequate flexibility to fund the Company's
operating needs, capital expenditures and cash dividends through fiscal year
1996, and the DMC acquisition identified below.

Subsequent to year-end, on January 10, 1996, the Company acquired Data
Measurement Corporation (DMC), located in Gaithersburg, Maryland, a leading
manufacturer of measurement systems for the steel industry, for $18.625 per
share or $31.3 million in cash.  DMC will operate as a separate subsidiary of
the Company, and as part of the Industrial Systems Division, with manufacturing,
engineering, product marketing and sales support continuing in Gaithersburg.

In the year ended December 3, 1995, the Company generated $50.0 million of cash
from operating activities compared to $11.1 million in 1994 and $2.3 million in
1993.  In 1995, $42.8 million was generated by net income after adjustments for
non-cash items, and $22.0 million as a result of discounting certain contracts
receivable with a financial institution. These cash inflows were offset by
increases in working capital of $14.9 million, including a $24.0 million
increase in accounts and contracts receivable before the discounting transaction
and a $12.4 million increase in inventory and service parts.  These cash
outflows were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued
expenses of $12.6 million and in income taxes payable of $4.8 million.
Increased orders, revenue and profit before tax resulted in the increased
working capital requirements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  (CONT.)
- ----------------------------------------

Cash of $11.2 million was generated from investing activities compared to usage
of $1.2 million in 1994 and usage of $6.9 million in 1993.  In 1995, the Company
sold its available-for-sale securities for $11.3 million and reduced its holding
in held-to-maturity securities by $18.1 million. Investments in property, plant
and equipment totaled $9.4 million during fiscal year 1995, up from $6.7 million
in 1994 and up from $8.3 million in 1993.  The increase was the result of
additional investment in equipment to support the Company's growth.  On December
14, 1994, the Company acquired the Webart Division of The Ohmart Corporation and
its family of on-line measurement and control systems for $3.4 million in cash
and a $0.7 million note payable.  Capitalized software decreased by $0.9 million
from 1994 to approximately $1.9 million in 1995.

Cash used in financing activities was $81.0 million compared to $4.1 million
during 1994 and to cash provided of $8.7 million in 1993.  During 1995, the
Company paid $100.3 million to repurchase 3.8 million shares of its own stock of
which $96.0 million was to repurchase all 3.6 million shares owned by
Harnischfeger Industries, Inc. at the then current market value, reducing
Harnischfeger's holdings of the Company's stock from 20% at November 27, 1994 to
zero.  Offsetting the cash outflow for this transaction and $7.0 million for
dividends, the Company received $27.6 million cash in connection with its
Employee Stock Purchase Plan and stock options exercised.

The Company's current ratio was approximately 1.9 at fiscal year-end 1995
compared to 2.5 at fiscal year-end 1994.  The debt to capitalization ratio was
11% at year-end  1995 compared to 9% at year-end 1994.

As a result of the above activities, and excluding exchange rate fluctuations,
the Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased by $19.3 million from $82.3
million at year-end 1994 to $62.9 million at year-end 1995.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

FISCAL YEAR - The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year.  References to 1995,
1994 and 1993 are for fiscal years ended December 3, 1995, November 27, 1994 and
November 28, 1993, respectively.  Fiscal year 1995 was a 53 week year and 1994
and 1993 were 52 week years.

CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
all subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION - The functional currency of foreign sales and
service operations (except certain operations in hyper-inflationary countries)
is the local currency. For all other operations, the functional currency is the
U.S. dollar.  The effects of translating local functional currency financial
statements are included in shareholders' equity.  The effects of foreign
currency transactions and remeasuring the financial position and results of
operations into the functional currency are included in interest income and
other.

The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge certain non-
U.S. dollar system orders and to reduce its overall exposure to the effects of
currency fluctuations related to the remeasurement of non-functional currency
net asset or liability positions.  Gains and losses on forward contracts, which
are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, are included in interest
income and other.

REVENUE RECOGNITION - The Company generally recognizes revenue from system sales
at the time of shipment provided any remaining obligations are insignificant and
collection is probable. Revenue on certain software contracts are recognized on
a percentage-of-completion basis.  Service and other revenues are recognized as
the services are provided or ratably over the life of the contracts.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES - The Company is actively engaged in basic
technology and applied research and development programs which are designed to
develop new or improved products and process applications.  The cost of these
programs is charged to expense as incurred except for certain software
development costs which are capitalized as described in the "Capitalized
Software" policy below.

CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE -  Costs related to the conceptual formulation and design
of software products are expensed as product development. Costs incurred
subsequent to establishing the technological feasibility of software products
are capitalized.

Amortization of capitalized software costs, which begins when products are
available for general release to customers, is computed on a straight-line basis
over the expected product lives, generally estimated to be three years.

INCOME TAXES - The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," at the beginning of fiscal year 1994,
which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the
expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the
financial statements or tax returns. Prior to 1994, taxes were provided for
items included in the consolidated statements of income regardless of the period
when such items may be reported for tax purposes ("deferred" method).

The Company provides U.S. and foreign income taxes on the portion of the
accumulated earnings of the Company's foreign subsidiaries which are intended to
be remitted to the parent company within the foreseeable future.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS -  Cash and cash equivalents generally consist of cash
and highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or
less.

(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise noted)

SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS - Short-term investments include investments held-to-
maturity and investments available-for-sale.  Investments held-to-maturity are
stated at amortized cost with original maturities between 3 and 12 months.
Investments that are considered available-for-sale are carried at market value.
Unrealized gains and losses are reported net of tax as a separate component of
shareholders' equity until realized.

INVENTORY VALUATION - Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost
(which approximates actual cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or
market.  Inventory costs include raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing
overhead.

DEPRECIATION - Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line
basis over estimated useful lives which range as follows:  buildings and
improvements - 3 to 40 years; machinery and equipment - 3 to 20 years.  Service
parts are depreciated on a 7 year declining balance basis.  When assets are sold
or retired, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the
accounts and the resulting gains or losses are included in income.

GOODWILL - Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods up to 25
years.

NET INCOME PER SHARE - Net income per share is computed based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the year adjusted to reflect
the assumed exercise of outstanding employee stock options to the extent these
items had a dilutive effect on the computation.

RECLASSIFICATION -  The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain
prior year information to conform with the current year presentation format.
These changes had no effect on the financial condition or results of operations
as previously reported.

RECENT PRONOUNCEMENT -  During October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued Statement No. 123 (SFAS No. 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation."  This standard, which establishes a fair value-based method of
accounting for stock-based compensation plans, also permits an election to
continue following the requirements of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees," with disclosures of pro forma net income and earnings per
share under the new method.  The Company is reviewing the alternatives under
SFAS No. 123 but does not expect there will be any effect on the financial
condition and results of operations of the Company.  Disclosure requirements of
SFAS No. 123 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year 1997.

SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

The carrying value of held-to-maturity securities at December 3, 1995 and
November 27, 1994 approximates market and comprises the following securities:

At November 27, 1994, the Company also held a preferred stock portfolio
classified as available-for-sale with a cost of $11.1 million, a market value of
$10.6 million, and gross unrealized holding losses of $0.5 million.  During
1995, the Company sold this investment and the related future contracts used to
hedge the portfolio.  The realized losses on this portfolio were $0.9 million in
1995 and $0.7 million in 1994.

The aggregate amount of payments receivable by the Company in fiscal years

        1996 - $8,902                         1999 - $3,695

        1998 - $4,830                   Thereafter - $2,010

During 1995, the Company entered into an agreement to discount certain contracts
receivable with a financial institution.  As contracts receivable are
discounted, a sale is recorded and gains, the difference between proceeds
received and the net book value of the contracts receivable, are reflected in
interest income and other, net.  Proceeds from discounting contracts receivable
were $22.0 million in 1995.  A portion of discounting gains is deferred to
offset future administration costs and is amortized over the remaining term of
the discounted contracts receivable.

Under the terms of this agreement, the Company is contingently liable for losses
in the event of non-payment by the contract receivable obligor.  The agreement
provides for limited recourse of up to 20% or full recourse at 100% of
discounting proceeds, depending on the credit risk associated with specific
contracts receivable.  At December 3, 1995 the total amount of contracts subject
to recourse was $13.1 million.  Under the agreement, the Company has granted a
security interest to the financial institution in the equipment as collateral.
The Company retains ownership of the equipment and its residual value.

The discounting agreements contains certain termination events which allow the
financial institution to assume administrative control of the lease portfolio
and could prohibit further discounting.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

On December 3, 1995, the Company had two credit agreements that provide for
unsecured borrowings up to $95 million.  These agreements include a $20 million
revolving credit agreement that provides for variable interest rate borrowings
based on the London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) and a $75 million multi-
currency credit agreement with a group of banks providing borrowings at variable
interest rates including a base rate borrowing, an offshore rate borrowing and
local currency rate borrowing.  The agreements expire July 1996 and February
1998, respectively.  There was $88 million available in connection with these
agreements at December 3, 1995, of which $12 million was committed to letters of
credit.

The Company also has a 5.35% five-year unsecured term loan agreement with a
bank.  Interest is payable quarterly, with principal payable in equal quarterly
installments of $1.0 million through June 1998.

These agreements contain certain covenants regarding working capital,
indebtedness and tangible net worth.  The Company was in compliance with all
covenants at December 3, 1995.

Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans
with similar terms and average maturities, the difference between the carrying
amount and fair value of the loans is immaterial.

The aggregate future principal payments of long-term debt are as follows:

    1996 - $4,458                      1999 -  $  139

    1998 - $3,346                Thereafter -  $7,068

At December 3, 1995, the Company had foreign exchange forward contracts valued
at $54.1 million, maturing from December 1995 to June 1997, denominated in the
following currencies: 75% European, 20% Canadian and 5% Yen.  The value of the
foreign currency forward contracts approximates fair value, which was based on
estimated foreign exchange rates as of December 3, 1995.  Approximately 99% of
the contracts are with one financial institution.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company leases various facilities and equipment under noncancelable lease
agreements. Rent expense under all operating leases was approximately $4.9
million, $4.7 million and $4.4 million in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

December 3, 1995 are approximately $4.7 million, $3.3 million, $2.0 million,
$1.4 million and $1.4 million for fiscal years 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000,

course of its business.  In the opinion of management, these proceedings will
not have a material adverse effect on the financial position and results of
operations of the Company.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company operates in one principal industry segment: the design, development,
manufacture, sales and service of computer-integrated manufacturing systems.
The Company sells these products to the paper, plastics, metals, rubber and
chemical industries.  Approximately 85% of the Company's system revenue is from
the paper industry in 1995, 1994 and 1993.

1993.

The Company's products are principally distributed and serviced through its own
marketing and service organizations.  Operations are conducted worldwide and are
grouped into three geographic areas:  United States, Europe, and Other
International (primarily Canada, Asia/Pacific and the Latin American countries).

The following table summarizes the geographic operations of the Company:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS, MEASUREX CORPORATION

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Measurex
Corporation as of December 3, 1995 and November 27, 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each
of the three fiscal years in the period ended December 3, 1995.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 aforementioned financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial position of Measurex Corporation
as of December 3, 1995 and November 27, 1994, and the consolidated results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the
period ended December 3, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
