NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1994 and 1993 is unaudited)
(In thousands, except per share data)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The results of operations for the three and nine month periods are not
necessarily indicative of those for the full year.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements are presented on a basis consistent with
the audited statements, and all adjustments, which consist only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and
the results of operations for the periods indicated, have been reflected.
2. ACCOUNTING CHANGES
Environmental Liabilities
During 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Emerging Issues
Task Force (EITF) issued EITF Abstract No. 93-5, "Accounting for
Environmental Liabilities" (EITF 93-5). The Company adopted the provisions
of EITF 93-5 effective January 1, 1993.
EITF 93-5 provides that an environmental liability should be evaluated
independently from any potential claim for recovery (a two-event approach)
and that the loss arising from the recognition of an environmental liability
should be reduced only when a claim for recovery is probable of realization.
Current accounting standards provide a general presumption that disputed
claims for recovery are not probable of realization. Under practice prior
to the issuance of EITF 93-5, some companies, including the Company, offset
reasonably possible recoveries against probable losses. As a result of the
issuance of EITF 93-5, this accounting treatment is no longer permitted.
The cumulative effect as of January 1, 1993 of adopting the provisions
of EITF 93-5 was a charge to net earnings of $6,820 ($0.20 per share), net
of the related income tax effect of $4,180.
Inventory Valuation
During 1993, the Company changed its method of applying the lower of
cost or market rule to certain slow-moving and discontinued waste raw
material inventory which is valued using the LIFO dollar value method. In
prior years, the Company used the aggregate method in applying the lower of
cost or market rule to such inventories and in 1993 changed to the
item-by-item method.
The Company believes the new method of accounting is preferable because
it provides a better matching of costs and revenue and results in a more
conservative valuation of slow-moving and discontinued waste raw material
inventory.
The cumulative effect as of January 1, 1993 of this change in accounting
was a charge to net earnings of $2,190 ($0.07 per share), net of the related
income tax effect of $1,342.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company's operations are subject to extensive and changing federal
and state environmental regulations governing air emissions, wastewater
discharges and solid and hazardous waste management activities. The
Company's policy is to accrue environmental and cleanup-related costs of a
non-capital nature when it is both probable that a liability has been
incurred and the amount can reasonably be estimated. While it is often
difficult to reasonably quantify future environmental-related expenditures,
the Company currently estimates its non-capital expenditures related to
environmental matters will range between $13,000 and $27,000. Such
expenditures are expected to occur over a significant number of future
years. In connection with these expenditures, the Company has accrued
$17,800 at September 30, 1994, representing management's best estimate of
probable non-capital environmental expenditures. In addition, capital
expenditures aggregating approximately $13,000 to $18,000 may be required
over the next several years related to currently existing environmental
matters.
The Company is obligated to remediate environmental problems which existed
at some of its manufacturing facilities prior to their acquisition by the
Company. The Company has escrow funds and indemnification agreements with
the prior owners of these facilities, which may result in reimbursement of a
significant portion of the environmental liabilities. However, as discussed
in note 2, current accounting standards generally permit companies to record
only uncontested claims for reimbursement of environmental liabilities.

6. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED PARTIALLY-OWNED COMPANY
In March 1993, the Company sold its 43.7% ownership interest in Wellstar
Holding, B.V. for $33,000. The transaction resulted in a gain, before
applicable income taxes, of approximately $12,386. The sale of Wellstar
increased net earnings by approximately $7,300, or $0.22 per share.

WELLMAN, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1993
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1994 were $233.0 million
compared to $210.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 1993. Sales
for the Company's domestic Fibers Division increased primarily as a result of
higher polyester sales volumes and, to a lesser extent, higher selling prices
for waste-based products. Higher volumes were primarily the result of the
expansion of polyester yarn capacity that was completed during the first quarter
of 1994. At Wellman International Limited (WIL), Wellman's Irish subsidiary,
sales increased due to increased volume resulting from strong demand and
production efficiencies and, to a lesser extent, higher selling prices. Sales
for the Manufactured Products Group (MPG) increased in the third quarter of 1994
compared to the third quarter of 1993 due to sales of higher priced bottle resin
by the Polymer Products Division and stronger product demand for wool sales in
1994 compared to 1993. At New England CRInc (CRInc), sales increased due to
significantly higher commodity prices and increased volumes at the division's
material recovery facilities.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 1994 was $52.6
million, or approximately 22.6% of sales, compared to $41.6 million, or
approximately 19.8% of sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1993.
Gross profit for the Company's fiber businesses increased primarily due to
higher sales volumes and, to a lesser extent, higher selling prices for waste-
based products and lower costs. Lower costs were the result of reduced spending
and lower raw material purchase costs primarily at the Company's waste-based
fiber businesses. At WIL, gross profit increased primarily as a result of the
aforementioned increased sales. Gross profit for the MPG increased due to
higher gross profit for the Polymer Products Division resulting from the sale of
bottle resin.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $20.6 million, or
approximately 8.9% of sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1994,
compared to $21.3 million, or approximately 10.1% of sales, for the three months
ended September 30, 1993.
As a result of the foregoing, operating income was $32.0 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1994 compared to $20.3 million for the same
period of 1993.
Net interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 1994 was $3.0
million compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 1993.
Interest expense was favorably impacted by a decrease in outstanding borrowings
while being partially offset by increasing interest rates.
During the third quarter of 1993, the maximum corporate income tax rate
increased from 34% to 35% resulting in an increase in income taxes of $2.7
million for the quarter, which had a negative impact on net earnings of
approximately $0.08 per share.
As a result of the foregoing, net earnings for the third quarter of 1994
were $17.3 million, or $0.52 per share, compared to $7.1 million, or $0.21 per
share, for the third quarter of 1993.

<PAGE>
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1993
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 were $685.3 million
compared to $632.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1993. Sales
for the Company's domestic Fibers Division increased due to higher polyester
sales volumes, which more than offset lower polyester selling prices. Higher
domestic volumes were the result of continued strong product demand, reduced
finished goods inventories and the aforementioned expansion of polyester yarn
capacity. At WIL, sales increased primarily due to an increase in volumes.
Sales for the MPG increased in the first nine months of 1994 compared to the
first nine months of 1993 due to stronger product demand for wool sales in 1994
compared to 1993 and increased sales of engineering resins products.
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 was $149.7
million, or approximately 21.8% of sales, compared to $137.2 million, or
approximately 21.7% of sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 1993.
Gross profit for the Company's fibers businesses increased due to the
aforementioned increased sales volumes and, to a lesser extent, lower costs,
which offset lower selling prices. At WIL, gross profit increased due to higher
sales volumes. Gross profit for the MPG increased due to higher gross profits
for the Polymer Products Division and the Wool Division, which more than offset
a decline in gross profit at Creative Forming, Inc.
Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $63.2 million, or
approximately 9.2% of sales, for the first nine months of 1994 compared to $61.8
million, or approximately 9.8% of sales, for the first nine months of 1993.
As a result of the foregoing, operating income was $86.5 million for the
first nine months of 1994, compared to $75.4 million for the first nine months
of 1993.
Net interest expense was $10.3 million in the first nine months of 1994
compared to $12.7 million in the first nine months of 1993. Interest expense
was favorably impacted by a reduction in outstanding borrowings while being
partially offset by rising interest rates for borrowings during the period.
During the third quarter of 1993, the maximum corporate income tax rate
increased from 34% to 35% resulting in an increase in income taxes of $2.7
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1993, which had a negative
impact on net earnings of approximately $0.08 per share.
The impact of the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles and
the gain on sale of Wellstar are discussed in notes 2 and 6, respectively, to
the condensed consolidated financial statements.
As a result of the foregoing, net earnings in the first nine months of 1994
were $44.7 million, or $1.34 per share, compared to $32.6 million, or $1.00 per
share, for the first nine months of 1993.

OUTLOOK
Strong worldwide demand, increasing chemical feedstock costs and higher-
priced cotton continue to put upward pressure on polyester fiber selling prices.
As a result, in September 1994, Wellman initiated additional price increases on
domestic polyester fibers, which may help reduce the impact of significant
increases in chemical feedstock costs expected in the fourth quarter of 1994.
Approximately 58% of Wellman's annual worldwide fiber production is derived from
chemical feedstocks. The remainder is manufactured from recycled raw materials.
In June 1994 Wellman announced plans to increase capacity at its polyester
fiber and PET bottle resin businesses as part of a $500 million, five-year
capital investment program. The Company's program includes process improvements
and capacity expansion at certain facilities in the U.S. and in Ireland.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company generated cash from operations of $89.4 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994 compared to $55.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1993. The increase in cash from operations was primarily
the result of an increase in net earnings and a reduction of inventories.
Net cash used in investing activities amounted to $49.1 million in the first
nine months of 1994, compared to $37.4 million in the first nine months of 1993.
In 1993, investing activities included $33.0 million of proceeds from the sale
of Wellstar. Capital spending amounted to $53.7 million in 1994 compared to
$75.0 million in 1993.
Net cash used in financing activities amounted to $40.6 million for the
first nine months of 1994 compared to $5.4 million for the first nine months of
1993 reflecting higher net repayments of long-term debt.
The Company's financing arrangements contain normal financial and
restrictive covenants, including restrictions on the payment of dividends and
requirements with respect to working capital, net worth, and the ratio of debt
to capitalization.
The Company's capital investment program includes approximately $80.0
million in planned capital expenditures in 1994. (See "Outlook" section for
future capital expenditure plans.) The exact amount and timing of the capital
spending is difficult to predict, however, as certain projects may extend into
1995 and beyond depending upon equipment delivery and construction schedules.
Wellman completed the expansion of polyester yarn production capacity and the
start-up of a new solid-stating unit to produce PET bottle resin in the first
quarter of 1994. The 1994 capital plan includes funds for the expansion of
monomer and PET resin production capacity and continued equipment upgrades at
the Company's domestic fiber operations.
The Company believes that the financial resources available to it, including
approximately $72.0 million available at September 30, 1994 under its $145.0
million bank credit facility, approximately $7.8 million of restricted cash
resulting from the issuance of economic development revenue bonds (included in
"Other assets, net" in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet and
earmarked for recycling-related capital expenditures) and internally generated
funds will be sufficient to meet its foreseeable working capital, capital
expenditure and dividend payment requirements.
