Item 5. Other Events
Joy Technologies Inc. ("Joy") merged with Harnischfeger
Industries, Inc. ("HII") on November 29, 1994 in a business
combination involving the exchange of Joy stock for HII stock.
This business combination is accounted for under the accounting
rules for pooling of interests.
Pooling accounting rules require that no Affiliate (officer,
director or ten percent or greater shareholder) of Joy and no
Affiliate of HII significantly reduce its risk relative to its
common shareholder position within the period beginning 30 days
prior to consummation of the business combination and ending upon
publication of financial results that include combined sales and
net income covering at least 30 days of post-merger combined
operations. Such publication is satisfied by the filing of this
Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
This Form 8-K sets forth the following required financial
information on combined sales and net income of Joy and HII for
more than 30 days of post-merger combined operations from November
29, 1994 through December 31, 1994:
Combined Post-Merger Results
For November 29, 1994 - December 31, 1994
-----------------------------------------
Net Sales $156,644,000
Net Income 1,890,000
The above results have been prepared and published only for
purposes of complying with pooling accounting requirements. During
December, business at both Joy and HII is at low levels due to
reduced worldwide market activities during the Christmas holidays
and the scheduled closure of HII's and much of Joy's operations
during the last week of that month. The above results are thus not
necessarily indicative of either full quarterly or other future
financial results.
