See accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Ingersoll-Rand is a multinational manufacturer of primarily nonelectrical industrial equipment and components. The company's principal lines of business are air compressors, architectural hardware products, automotive parts and components, construction equipment, golf cars and utility vehicles, pumps, tools and transport temperature control systems. The company's broad product line has applications in numerous industries including automotive, construction, utilities, housing, recreational and transportation, as well as the general industrial market. A summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows: Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Partially owned equity affiliates companiesare accounted for under the equity method. In conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management has used estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates include accounting for doubtful accounts, amortization and depreciation, warranty, sales returns, taxes and environmental and other contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform with the 1999 presentation, including classifying two joint ventures as discontinued operations (see Note 2). Unless otherwise noted, all amounts and percentages disclosed in these Notes do not include discontinued operations. Cash Equivalents: The company considers all highly liquid investments, consisting primarily of time deposits and commercial paper with maturities of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents were $73.0 million and $1.9 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Inventories: Inventories are generally stated at cost, which is not in excess of market. Domestically manufactured inventories of standard products are valued on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and all other inventories are valued using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Property and Depreciation: The company principally uses accelerated depreciation methods for assets placed in service prior to December 31, 1994. Assets acquired subsequent to that date are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Intangible Assets: Intangible assets primarily represent the excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Such excess costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis generally over 40 years. Goodwill at December 31, 1999 and 1998, was $3.7 billion. Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Intangible assets also represent costs allocated to patents arising from business acquisitions, and debt issuance costs. These assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Accumulated amortization at December 31, 1999 and 1998, was $353.5 million and $246.3 million, respectively. Amortization of intangible assets was $112.8 million, $110.1 million and $54.4 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Income Taxes: Deferred taxes are provided on temporary differences between assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes as measured by enacted tax rates expected to apply when temporary differences are settled or realized. A valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets for which realization is not likely. Environmental Costs: Environmental expenditures relating to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures relating to existing conditions caused by past operations, which do not contribute to current or future revenues, are expensed. Costs to prepare environmental site evaluations and feasibility studies are accrued when the company commits to perform them. Liabilities for remediation costs are recorded when they are probable and reasonably estimable, generally no later than the completion of feasibility studies or the company's commitment to a plan of action. The assessment of this liability, which is calculated based on existing technology, does not reflect any offset for possible recoveries from insurance companies and is not discounted. Revenue Recognition: Sales of products are recorded for financial reporting purposes generally when the products are shipped. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers and other adjustments are generally provided at the time of sale. Research and Development Costs: Research and development expenditures, including qualifying engineering costs, are expensed when incurred and amounted to $186.2 million in 1999, $169.6 million in 1998 and $138.2 million in 1997. Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income includes net income, and currently in the case of the company, only foreign currency translation adjustments. The amounts shown as reclassification adjustments relate to the accumulated foreign currency translation adjustment of entities that had been sold, and thus included in net earnings of the current period. Foreign Currency: Assets and liabilities of foreign entities, where the local currency is the functional currency, have been translated at year-end exchange rates, and income and expenses have been translated using weighted average-for-the-year exchange rates. Adjustments resulting from translation have been recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and are included in net earnings only upon sale or liquidation of the underlying foreign investment. For foreign entities where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, inventory and property balances and related income statement accounts have been translated using historical exchange rates, and resulting gains and losses have been credited or charged to net earnings. Foreign currency transactions and translations recorded in the income statement increased net earnings by $2.5 million in 1999 and decreased net earnings by $8.0 million and $0.1 million in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Accumulated other comprehensive income was decreased in 1999 by $46.5 million, increased in 1998 by $2.5 million and decreased in 1997 by $73.2 million due to foreign currency equity adjustments related to translation and dispositions. The company hedges certain foreign currency transactions and firm foreign currency commitments by entering into forward exchange contracts (forward contracts). Gains and losses associated with currency rate changes on forward contracts hedging foreign currency transactions are recorded currently in income. Gains and losses on forward contracts hedging firm foreign currency commitments are deferred off-balance sheet and included as a component of the related transaction, when recorded; however, a loss is not deferred if deferral would lead to the recognition of a loss in future periods. Cash flows resulting from forward contracts accounted for as hedges of identifiable transactions or events are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the items being hedged. The company also purchases forward contracts to mitigate the exposure of forecasted future cash flows of foreign subsidiaries. These contracts range in duration from one to 12 months. Gains and losses associated with the change in fair market value of these contracts are recorded in other income. Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding as well as dilutive potential common shares, which in the company's case comprise shares issuable under stock benefit plans. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for basic earnings per share calculations were 163,644,073, 163,669,777 and 163,206,932 for 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. For diluted earnings per share purposes, these balances increased by 2,108,724, 1,812,035 and 1,617,803 shares for 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, due to the effect of common equivalent shares issuable under the company's stock benefit plans. Stock-based Compensation: SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation," requires companies to measure employee stock compensation plans based on the fair value method of accounting or to continue to apply APB No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and provide pro forma footnote disclosures under the fair value method in SFAS No. 123. The company continues to apply the principles of APB No. 25 and has provided pro forma fair value disclosures in Note 14. New Accounting Standard: In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This Statement will become effective beginning January 1, 2001. SFAS No. 133 requires all derivatives to be recognized as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives will be recognized in earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on the designated purpose of the derivative. The company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the standard and will comply as required. NOTE 2 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS: On August 12, 1999, the company announced its intention to dispose of its interest in Dresser-Rand Company (D-R), a joint venture involved in the reciprocating compressor and turbo machinery business, and Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company (IDP), a joint venture involved in the engineered pump business. On October 5, 1999, the joint venture partner, as permitted under the joint venture agreements, elected to sell its share of the joint ventures to the company. Effective December 31, 1999, the company completed the purchase of IDP by acquiring the joint venture partner's 49% share for a net purchase price of $377.0 million. A note for the full purchase price was issued to the joint venture partner and was redeemed on January 14, 2000. The net assets have been reported as assets held for sale in the accompanying financial statements, and prior periods have been restated to reflect these businesses as discontinued operations. Historically, IDP had been reported as part of the Engineered Products Segment, while D-R had been reported in other income (expense), net. The net assets of discontinued operations included in assets held for sale at December 31, are as follows (in millions): 1999 1998 Cash and cash equivalents $ 49.9 $ 28.5 Other current assets 392.3 416.6 Investments in and advances with partially owned affiliates 146.3 161.1 Property, plant and equipment, net 103.1 110.8 Intangibles and other assets 310.7 42.2 Current liabilities (194.5) (227.6) Other liabilities (74.3) (78.1) Minority interests - (100.0) Cumulative translation adjustment 34.6 22.6 Net assets of discontinued operations held for sale $ 768.1 $ 376.1 Income from discontinued operations included the following results for the years ended December 31 (in millions): 1999 1998 1997 Net sales $837.9 $906.8 $864.2 Operating income 63.9 75.3 36.8 D-R equity earnings 25.4 33.0 9.4 Other income (expense), net 7.4 7.0 4.1 Interest expense (1.4) (1.6) (1.3) Minority interest (23.7) (30.7) (13.7) Earnings before income taxes 71.6 83.0 35.3 Income taxes 25.4 29.4 13.4 Income from discontinued operations $ 46.2 $ 53.6 $ 21.9 The payable to D-R has been netted against the assets held for sale. Results reported separately by either D-R or IDP that are presented on a stand-alone basis may differ from the results based on discontinued operations reporting. NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS OF BUSINESSES: On March 30, 1999, the company completed the acquisition of Harrow Industries, Inc. (Harrow), a leading manufacturer of access control technologies, architectural hardware, and decorative bath fittings and accessories. The purchase price was approximately $160.0 million, which included the assumption of certain debt. Since acquisition, the company segregated certain net assets of Harrow that would be sold within twelve months. In the first quarter of 1998, the company acquired for approximately $15.4 million in cash, substantially all the assets of Johnstone Pump Company (Johnstone). Johnstone manufactures industrial piston pumps, automated dispensing systems and related products for use primarily in the automotive industry. Also in the first quarter of 1998, the company acquired for approximately $18.0 million in cash certain manufacturing assets used to produce residential locks, excluding padlocks, from the Master Lock unit of Fortune Brands, Inc. In the third quarter of 1998, the company acquired full ownership of GHH-RAND Schraubenkcompressoren GmbH & Co. KG (GHH-RAND), a manufacturer of air ends for air compressors. The company previously owned 50% of GHH-RAND Schraubenkcompressoren GmbH & Co. KG (GHH-RAND). In addition, during 1998, the company purchased several smaller businesses. On October 31, 1997, the company acquired Thermo King Corporation (Thermo King), for approximately $2.56 billion in cash. Thermo King is the world leader in the transport temperature-control business for trailers, truck bodies, seagoing containers, buses and light-rail cars. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997, reflects the acquisition as though it occurred at the beginning of the year, after adjustments for the impact of interest on acquisition debt and depreciation and amortization of assets. In millions except per share amounts 1997 Sales $7,101.2 Earnings from continuing operations 368.2 Basic earnings per share - continuing operations $2.26 Diluted earnings per share - continuing operations 2.23 The above pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what the actual results would have been had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the year. Further, the pro forma results are not intended to be a projection of future results of the combined companies. On April 3, 1997, the company completed the acquisition of Newman Tonks Group PLC (Newman Tonks), a producer of architectural hardware, for approximately $370.0 million. These transactions have been accounted for as purchases and accordingly, each purchase price was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values. The company has classified as intangible assets the costs in excess of the fair value of the net assets of companies acquired. The results of all acquired operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements from their respective acquisition dates. NOTE 4 - DISPOSITIONS: During the third quarter, the company received proceeds of $47.0 million, which approximated book value on the sale of a portion of the Harrow assets. In December 1999, the company also sold certain net assets of the Automation Division. The transaction resulted in a net gain of approximately $4.4 million. The company also made several minor dispositions during 1999. In the first quarter of 1998, the company completed the sale of Ing. G. Klemm Bohrtechnik GmbH. Also, during 1998, the company sold certain assets of Ingersoll-Rand Architectural Hardware Group Limited (formerly Newman Tonks Group Limited PLC). Sale proceeds approximated the book value of these assets. In the third quarter of 1998, the company sold the Spra-Coupe product line, which was reported as part of the Specialty Vehicles Segment. The sale price of approximately $35.0 million resulted in a $9.0 million gain. On February 14, 1997, the company sold the Clark-Hurth Components Group (Clark-Hurth) for approximately $241.5 million of net cash. This group's 1997 results, inclusive of the sale transaction, produced operating income for the first quarter of approximately $2.7 million, but on an after-tax basis, reduced net earnings by approximately $3.6 million. NOTE 5 - INVENTORIES: At December 31, inventories were as follows: In millions 1999 1998 Raw materials and supplies $ 161.7 $ 166.8 Work-in-process 191.7 195.8 Finished goods 532.9 607.6 886.3 970.2 Less-LIFO reserve 144.2 145.4 Total $ 742.1 $ 824.8 Work-in-process inventories are stated after deducting customer progress payments of $2.0 million in 1999 and $5.6 million in 1998. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, LIFO inventories comprised approximately 51% and 49%, respectively, of consolidated inventories. There were no material liquidations of LIFO layers for all periods presented. NOTE 6 - INVESTMENTS IN PARTIALLY OWNED EQUITY AFFILIATES: The company has numerous investments, ranging from 20% to 50%, in companies that operate in similar lines of business. The company's investments in and amounts due to/(from) partially owned equity affiliates amounted to $197.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 1999, and $184.3 million and $(0.7) million, respectively, at December 31, 1998. The company's equity in the net earnings of its partially owned equity affiliates was $9.5 million, $13.6 million and $18.5 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997 respectively. The company received dividends based on its equity interests in these companies of $6.4 million, $6.7 million, and $7.6 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Summarized financial information for these partially owned equity affiliates at December 31, and for the years then ended: In millions 1999 1998 Current assets $ 329.8 $ 392.4 Property, plant and equipment, net 260.0 247.2 Other assets 14.1 15.9 Total assets $ 603.9 $ 655.5 Current liabilities $ 171.5 $ 199.5 Long-term debt 61.3 63.1 Other liabilities 22.8 20.9 Total shareholders' equity 348.3 372.0 Total liabilities and equity $ 603.9 $ 655.5 In millions 1999 1998 1997 Net sales $ 609.3 $ 665.8 $ 782.0 Gross profit 88.1 94.9 126.7 Net earnings 19.5 26.1 37.4 NOTE 7 - ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUALS: Accounts payable and accruals at December 31, were: In millions 1999 1998 Accounts payable $ 319.2 $ 371.5 Accrued: Payrolls and benefits 215.1 235.1 Taxes other than income 36.9 39.9 Insurance and claims 116.1 106.6 Postemployment benefits 82.3 63.3 Warranties 57.8 67.5 Interest 60.6 48.1 Other accruals 336.4 352.4 $1,224.4 $1,284.4 NOTE 8 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: The company, as a large multinational company, maintains significant operations in foreign countries. As a result of these global activities, the company is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which affect the results of operations and financial condition. The company manages exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates through its normal operating and financing activities, as well as through the use of financial instruments. Generally, the only financial instruments the company utilizes are forward exchange contracts and options. In late 1999, the company began purchasing commodity contracts to hedge a portion of the costs of metals used in its products. Activity for 1999 was minimal. The purpose of the company's hedging activities is to mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The company attempts to hedge transaction exposures through natural offsets. To the extent that this is not practicable, major exposure areas considered for hedging include foreign currency denominated receivables and payables, intercompany loans, firm committed transactions, anticipated sales and purchases, and dividends relating to foreign subsidiaries. The following table summarizes by major currency the contractual amounts of the company's forward contracts in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated at year-end rates at the respective reporting date. The "buy" amounts represent the U.S. equivalent of commitments to purchase foreign currencies, and the "sell" amounts represent the U.S. equivalent of commitments to sell foreign currencies. Some of the forward contracts involve the exchange of two foreign currencies according to local needs in foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, the contractual amounts were: In millions 1999 1998 Buy Sell Buy Sell Australian dollars $ - $ 1.4 $ 2.4 $ 11.5 Brazilian reais - - - 13.8 British pounds 29.2 16.3 13.7 158.9 Canadian dollars 107.3 17.9 2.0 42.4 Czech koruna - - - 10.9 Danish krona 14.5 0.8 5.9 5.9 Euro and euro-linked currencies 44.3 5.8 102.8 343.4 Japanese yen 4.9 0.6 2.8 19.7 New Zealand dollars - 2.2 3.0 6.4 Singapore dollars 1.3 11.2 - 11.9 Other 4.4 10.1 0.9 3.6 Total $205.9 $66.3 $133.5 $628.4 Forward contracts utilized by the company have maturities of one to 12 months. The company's forward contracts that hedge transactions or firm commitments do not subject the company to risk due to foreign exchange rate movement, since gains and losses on these contracts generally offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities or other transactions being hedged. Contracts purchased to mitigate the variability of future cash flows of foreign subsidiaries bear market risk to the extent actual transacted amounts vary from the forecasted amounts. All gains and losses on these contracts have been included in earnings. The counterparties to the company's forward contracts consist of a number of major international financial institutions. The company could be exposed to loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties. However, credit ratings and concentration of risk of these financial institutions are monitored on a continuing basis and present no significant credit risk to the company. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings and accounts payable are a reasonable estimate of their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the company's remaining financial instruments at December 31: In millions 1999 1998 Long-term debt: Carrying value $2,113.3 $2,166.0 Estimated fair value 2,083.9 2,299.7 Forward contracts: Contract (notional) amounts: Buy contracts $ 205.9 $ 133.5 Sell contracts 66.3 628.4 Fair (market) values: Buy contracts 209.2 142.9 Sell contracts 66.5 635.3 Fair value of long-term debt was determined by reference to the December 31, 1999 and 1998, market values of comparably rated debt instruments. Fair values of forward contracts are based on dealer quotes at the respective reporting dates. NOTE 9 - LONG-TERM DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES: At December 31, long-term debt consisted of: In millions 1999 1998 6 7/8% Notes Due 2003 $ 100.0 $ 100.0 6.255% Notes Due 2001 400.0 400.0 9% Debentures Due 2021 125.0 125.0 7.20% Debentures Due 2025 150.0 150.0 6.48% Debentures Due 2025 150.0 150.0 6.391% Debentures Due 2027 200.0 200.0 6.443% Debentures Due 2027 200.0 200.0 Medium-term Notes Due 2001-2028, at an average rate of 6.43% 609.9 679.9 9.75% Clark Debentures Due 2001 100.0 100.0 Clark Medium-term Notes Due 2023, at an average rate of 8.22% 50.2 50.2 Other domestic and foreign loans and notes, at end- of-year average interest rates of 5.756% in 1999 and 6.278% in 1998, maturing in various amounts to 2014 28.2 10.9 $2,113.3 $2,166.0 Debt retirements for the next five years are as follows: $73.1 million in 2000, $736.3 million in 2001, $84.0 million in 2002, $198.3 million in 2003 and $315.5 million in 2004. In December 1998, the company repurchased $110.0 million of its medium-term notes for $116.9 million including accrued interest. The average coupon of the notes repurchased was 6.53% with maturities ranging from 2000 to 2005. At December 31, 1999, the company's committed revolving credit lines consisted of two 364-day lines and a five-year line totalling $1.3 billion and $750.0 million, respectively, both of which were unused. These lines provide support for commercial paper and indirectly provide support for other financing instruments, such as letters of credit and comfort letters, as required in the normal course of business. The company compensates banks for these lines with fees equal to a weighted average of 0.06375% per annum. Available foreign lines of credit were $614.6 million, of which $540.9 million were unused at December 31, 1999. No major cash balances were subject to withdrawal restrictions. At December 31, 1999, and 1998 the average rate of interest for loans payable, excluding the current portion of long-term debt, was 4.186% and 8.306%, respectively. Capitalized interest on construction and other capital projects amounted to $4.0 million, $4.0 million and $3.2 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Interest income, included in other income (expense), net, was $5.4 million, $7.5 million and $11.0 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: The company is involved in various litigations, claims and administrative proceedings, including environmental matters, arising in the normal course of business. In assessing its potential environmental liability, the company bases its estimates on current technologies and does not discount its liability or assume any insurance recoveries. Amounts recorded for identified contingent liabilities are estimates, which are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional information when it becomes available. Subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities, management believes that recovery or liability with respect to these matters would not have a material effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the company for any year. The company has established two wholly owned special purpose subsidiaries to purchase accounts and notes receivable at a discount from the company on a continuous basis. These special purpose subsidiaries simultaneously sell an undivided interest in these accounts and notes receivable to a financial institution up to a maximum of $170.0 million. The agreements between the special purpose corporations and the financial institution expire annually and will be renewed with either the current or another financial institution. The company is retained as the servicer of the pooled receivables. During 1999, 1998 and 1997, such sales of receivables amounted to $781.8 million, $723.7 million and $614.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 1999, $170.0 million of such sold receivables remained uncollected. Receivables, excluding the designated pool of accounts and notes receivable, sold during 1999 and 1998 with recourse, amounted to $57.5 million and $55.4 million, respectively. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, $18.7 million and $12.4 million, respectively, of such receivables sold remained uncollected. As of December 31, 1999, the company had no significant concentrations of credit risk in trade receivables due to the large number of customers which comprised its receivables base and their dispersion across different industries and countries. In the normal course of business, the company has issued several direct and indirect guarantees, including performance letters of credit, totalling approximately $104.0 million at December 31, 1999. The company has also guaranteed the residual value of leased product in the aggregate amount of $39.1 million. Upon the termination of a dealer, a newly selected dealer generally acquires the assets of the prior dealer and assumes any related financial obligation. Accordingly, the risk of loss to the company is minimal, and historically, only immaterial losses have been incurred relating to these arrangements. Management believes these guarantees will not adversely affect the consolidated financial statements. Certain office and warehouse facilities, transportation vehicles and data processing equipment are leased. Total rental expense was $71.6 million in 1999, $71.2 million in 1998 and $69.5 million in 1997. Minimum lease payments required under noncancellable operating leases with terms in excess of one year for the next five years and thereafter, are as follows: $46.3 million in 2000, $37.2 million in 2001, $27.2 million in 2002, $17.9 million in 2003, $15.7 million in 2004 and $25.7 million thereafter. NOTE 11 - EQUITY-LINKED SECURITIES: In March 1998, the company, together with Ingersoll Financing I, a Delaware statutory business trust of the company (Finance Trust), issued an aggregate of (a) 16,100,000 equity-linked securities, and (b) 1,610,000 Finance Trust 6.22% capital securities, each with a $25 stated liquidation amount (the capital securities). The equity-linked securities consisted of (a) 14,490,000 income equity-linked securities (income securities), and (b) 1,610,000 growth equity-linked securities (growth securities). Each equity-linked security consists of a unit comprised of (a) a contract to purchase from the company no later than May 16, 2001, a number of shares of the company's common stock determined in accordance with a specified formula and to receive an annual contract adjustment payment until May 15, 2001 of 0.53%, (in the case of an income security), or 0.78% (in the case of a growth security), and (b) either beneficial ownership of a capital security (in the case of an income security), or a 1/40 undivided beneficial interest in a zero coupon U.S. Treasury Security maturing May 15, 2001 (in the case of a growth security). Under the terms of the stock purchase contracts, the company will issue between 6.9 million and 8.3 million common shares by May 16, 2001. The capital securities associated with the income securities and the U.S. Treasury Securities associated with the growth securities have been pledged as collateral to secure the holders' obligations in respect of the common stock purchase contracts. The capital securities were issued by the Finance Trust and are entitled to a distribution rate of 6.22% per annum of their $25 stated liquidation amount. The Finance Trust utilized the proceeds from the issuance of the equity-linked and capital securities to purchase $402.5 million of the company's 6.22% Debentures due May 16, 2003. The Debentures are the sole asset of the Finance Trust. The interest rate on the 6.22% Debentures and the distribution rate on the capital securities and common securities of the Finance Trust are to be reset, subject to certain limitations, effective May 16, 2001. The company has recorded the present value of the contract adjustment payments, totalling $6.4 million, as a liability and a reduction of shareholders' equity. The liability will be reduced as the contract adjustment payments are made. The company has the right to defer the contract adjustment payments and the payment of interest on the 6.22% Debentures, but any such election will subject the company to restrictions on the payment of dividends on, and redemption of, its outstanding shares of common stock, and on the payment of interest on, or redemption of, debt securities of the company junior in rank to the 6.22% Debentures. The company paid costs of approximately $12.9 million in connection with the issuance of the equity-linked securities and the capital securities. The portion of such costs which relate to the issuance of the stock purchase contracts has been recorded as a reduction of shareholders' equity. NOTE 12 - COMMON STOCK: In May 1997, the board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to 15.0 million shares of the company's common stock at management's discretion. Shares repurchased will be used for general corporate purposes. The number of treasury shares at December 31, 1999, and December 31, 1998, were 8,039,516 and 4,494,930, respectively. In August 1997, the board of directors declared a three-for-two stock split of the company's common stock. The stock split was made in the form of a stock dividend, and was paid on September 2, 1997, to shareholders of record on August 19, 1997. All prior year per share amounts have been restated to reflect the stock split. In November 1998, the company adopted a new shareholder rights plan to replace the plan which expired on December 22, 1998. Under the new plan, one right was distributed for each share of Ingersoll- Rand common stock outstanding at the close of business on December 22, 1998. Initially, the rights are attached to the common stock and are not exercisable. The rights become exercisable and will trade separately from the common stock 10 days following the first public announcement that any person or group has acquired at least 15% of the company's outstanding common stock, or on the 10th day following the commencement or the announcement of an intention to commence a tender offer, which would result in that person or group acquiring beneficial ownership of att least 15 % of the outstanding shares of common stock. Each right would entitle the holder to purchase one-thousandth of a share of Series A Preference Stock at an exercise price of $200. If any person or group acquires 15% or more of the company's common stock, the rights not held by the 15% shareholder would become exercisable to purchase the company's common stock at a 50% discount. The plan provides that, at any time after a person or group becomes an acquiring person and prior to the acquisition by that person or group of 50% or more of the outstanding common stock, the board may exchange the rights (other than the rights held by the acquiring person, which will have become void), at an exchange ratio of one share of common stock per right. The new rights will expire on December 22, 2008, unless earlier redeemed or exchanged by the company, as provided in the rights plan. The company may elect to redeem the rights at $0.01 per right. NOTE 13 - LEVERAGED EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN: The company's sponsors a Leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan (LESOP) for eligible employees. The LESOP is used to fund certain employee benefit plans. At December 31, 1999, and December 31, 1998, the LESOP held approximately 0.7 million and 1.1 million shares, respectively, which are unallocated. The carrying value0 offor the unallocated shares was $16.5 million and $27.0 million at December 31, 1999, and December 31, 1998, respectively, and is classified as a reduction of shareholders' equity pending allocation to participants. At December 31, 1999, the LESOP owed the company $8.4 million payable in monthly installments through 2001. Company contributions to the LESOP and dividends on unallocated shares are used to make loan principal and interest payments. With each principal and interest payment, the LESOP allocates a portion of the common stock to participating employees. NOTE 14 - INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS: Under the company's Incentive Stock Plans, key employees have been granted options to purchase common shares at prices not less than the fair market value at the date of the grant. Options issued before December 31, 1998, became exercisable one year after the date of the grant and expire at the end of 10 years. Options issued after January 1, 1999, become exercisable ratably over a three year period from their date of grant and expire at the end of 10 years. The plans, approved in 1990, 1995 and 1998, also authorize stock appreciation rights (SARs) and stock awards. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the company continues to account for its stock plans in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense has been recognized for SARs (which were generally settled for cash) and for stock awards. Under SFAS No. 123, compensation cost for the applicable provisions of the company's incentive stock plans would be determined based upon the fair value at the grant date for awards issued since 1996. Applying this methodology would have reduced net earnings and diluted earnings per share by approximately $8.5 million and five cents per share for 1999; $14.7 million and nine cents per share for 1998; and $10.0 million and six cents per share for 1997. On December 15, 1996, the company cancelled SARs which were previously attached to 2,758,500 stock options. Included in the SFAS No. 123 expense for 1997 was approximately $1.5 million (or one cent per share) for the cost of this revocation. The average fair values of the options granted during 1999, 1998 and 1997 were estimated at $14.15, $8.06 and $8.55, respectively, on the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which included the following assumptions: 1999 1998 1997 Dividend yield 1.27% 1.42% 1.61% Volatility 29.59% 25.76% 22.59% Risk-free interest rate 4.93% 5.39% 6.52% Forfeiture rate -- -- -- Expected life 4 years 4 years 4 years Changes in options outstanding under the plans were as follows: Shares subject Option Price Weighted average to option range per share exercise price January 1, 1997 5,955,150 $13.83-31.13 $23.25 Granted 2,031,000 30.33-41.28 34.14 Exercised (1,905,250) 13.83-28.54 22.74 Canceled (37,500) 26.21-26.63 26.29 December 31, 1997 6,043,400 $13.83-41.28 $27.06 Granted 2,280,250 37.03-47.03 42.45 Exercised (1,419,525) 13.83-40.47 25.65 Cancelled (69,600) 24.08-41.28 33.75 December 31, 1998 6,834,525 $14.77-47.03 $32.43 Granted 2,816,480 49.09-69.75 50.50 Exercised (2,216,558) 14.77-46.00 31.74 Cancelled (93,590) 26.21-26.63 48.99 December 31, 1999 7,340,857 $15.13-69.75 $39.35 At December 31, 1999, there were 402,050 SARs outstanding with no stock options attached. The company has reserved 10,309,456 shares for future awards at December 31, 1999. In addition, 554,875 440,422 shares of common stock were reserved for future issue, contingent upon attainment of certain performance goals and future service and 229,427 shares have been earned but deferred at December 31, 1999.

The company also maintains a shareholder-approved Management Incentive Unit Award Plan. Under the plan, qualifying executives are awarded incentive units. When dividends are paid on common stock, dividends are awarded to unit holders, one-half of which is paid in cash, the remaining half of which is credited to the participant's account in the form of so-called common stock equivalents. The fair value of accumulated common stock equivalents is paid in cash upon the participant's retirement. The number of common stock equivalents credited to participants' accounts at December 31, 1999 and 1998, are315,210 484,341 and 513,470, respectively. NOTE 15 - INCOME TAXES: Earnings before income taxes for the years ended December 31, were taxed within the following jurisdictions: In millions 1999 1998 1997 United States $669.0 $539.9 $452.5 Foreign 175.8 166.3 125.9 Total $844.8 $706.2 $578.4 The provision for income taxes was as follows: In millions 1999 1998 1997 Current tax expense: United States $220.5 $183.2 $176.9 Foreign 37.6 61.3 52.6 Total current 258.1 244.5 229.5 Deferred tax expense: United States 26.4 12.0 (0.9) Foreign 15.4 (5.8) (8.8) Total deferred 41.8 6.2 (9.7) Total provision for income taxes $299.9 $250.7 $219.8 The provision for income taxes differs from the amount of income taxes determined by applying the applicable U.S. statutory income tax rate to pretax income, as a result of the following differences: Percent of pretax income 1999 1998 1997 Statutory U.S. rates 35.0% 35.0% 35.0% Increase (decrease) in rates resulting from: Amortization of goodwill 2.0 2.5 2.1 Foreign operations (1.0) 0.1 (0.4) Foreign sales corporation (1.7) (2.0) (0.9) State and local income taxes, net of U.S. tax 2.1 2.3 1.3 Puerto Rico - Sec 936 Credit (1.8) (2.2) (0.6) Other 0.9 (0.2) 1.5 Effective tax rate 35.5% 35.5% 38.0% A summary of the deferred tax accounts at December 31, follows: In millions 1999 1998 1997 Current deferred assets and (liabilities): Differences between book and tax bases of inventories and receivables $ 21.1 $ 21.4 $ 22.4 Differences between book and tax expense for other employee related benefits and allowances 8.5 16.7 4.5 Other reserves and valuation allowances in excess of tax deductions 35.4 28.3 62.4 Other differences between tax and financial statement values (11.1) 2.4 1.7 Gross current deferred net tax assets 53.9 68.8 91.0 Noncurrent deferred tax assets and (liabilities): Postretirement and postemployment benefits other than pensions in excess of tax deductions 262.4 255.1 255.4 Other reserves in excess of tax expense 119.2 124.0 118.9 Tax depreciation in excess of book depreciation (124.7) (96.0) (95.2) Pension contributions in excess of book expense (38.5) (32.6) (34.2) Taxes provided for unrepatriated foreign earnings (22.5) (22.5) (28.5) Gross noncurrent deferred net tax assets 195.9 228.0 216.4 Less: deferred tax valuation allowances (37.9) (22.0) (36.7) Total net deferred tax assets $211.9 $274.8 $270.7 A total of $22.5 million of deferred taxes have been provided for a portion of the undistributed earnings of subsidiaries operating outside of the United States. As to the remainder, these earnings have been, and under current plans, will continue to be reinvested. Therefore, it is not practicable to estimate the amount of additional taxes which may be payable upon repatriation. NOTE 16 - POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS: The company sponsors several postretirement plans that cover most domestic employees. These plans provide for health care benefits and in some instances, life insurance benefits. Postretirement health plans are contributory and are adjusted annually. Life insurance plans are noncontributory. When fulltime employees retire from the company between age 55 and 65, most are eligible to receive, at a cost to the retiree, certain health care benefits identical to those available to active employees. After attaining age 65, an eligible retiree's health care benefit coverage becomes coordinated with Medicare. The company funds the benefit costs principally on a pay-as-you-go basis. Summary information on the company's plans at December 31, was as follows: In millions 1999 1998 Change in benefit obligations: Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 610.3 $ 567.4 Service cost 8.8 9.6 Interest cost 38.0 38.9 Plan participants' contributions 4.3 3.2 Actuarial (gains)/losses (36.8) 29.6 Benefits paid (58.4) (48.0) Other 0.2 9.6 Benefit obligation at end of year $ 566.4 $ 610.3 Funded status: Plan assets less than benefit obligations $(566.4) $(610.3) Unrecognized: Prior service gains (54.5) (59.0) Plan net gains (55.7) (20.2) Accrued costs in the balance sheet $(676.6) $(689.5) Weighted-average assumptions: Discount rate 7.50% 6.75% Current year medical inflation 6.50% 7.60% Ultimate inflation rate (2003) 5.00% 4.50% The components of net periodic postretirement benefits cost for the years ended December 31, were as follows: In millions 1999 1998 1997 Service cost $ 8.8 $ 9.6 $ 7.3 Interest cost 38.0 38.9 36.3 Net amortization of unrecognized: Prior service gains (4.2) (4.5) (4.5) Plan net gains - - (0.9) Net periodic postretirement benefits cost $42.6 $44.0 $38.2 A 1% change in the medical trend rate assumed for postretirement benefits would have the following effects at December 31, 1999: In millions 1% Increase 1% Decrease Effect on total of service and interest cost components $ 3.6 $ (3.4) Effect on postretirement benefit obligation 47.3 (41.4) NOTE 17 - PENSION PLANS: The company has noncontributory pension plans covering substantially all domestic employees. In addition, certain employees in other countries are covered by pension plans. The company's domestic salaried plans principally provide benefits based on a career average earnings formula. The company's hourly pension plans provide benefits under flat benefit formulas. Foreign plans provide benefits based on earnings and years of service.

NOTE 18 - BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION: Operating segments are defined as components of a company engaging in business activities for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in assessing performance and allocating resources. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies except that the operating segments results are prepared on a management basis that is consistent with the manner in which the company disaggregates financial information for internal review and decision making. The company evaluates performance based on operating income contribution rates. Intercompany sales transactions are entirely contained within each segment and are eliminated at the segment level.

Report of Management The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the company. They conform with generally accepted accounting principles and reflect judgments and estimates as to the expected effects of incomplete transactions and events being accounted for currently. The company believes that the accounting systems and related controls that it maintains are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded, transactions are appropriately authorized and recorded, and the financial records are reliable for preparing such financial statements. The concept of reasonable assurance is based on the recognition that the cost of a system of internal accounting controls must be related to the benefits derived. The company maintains an internal audit function that is responsible for evaluating the adequacy and application of financial and operating controls, and for testing compliance with company policies and procedures. The Audit Committee of the board of directors is comprised entirely of individuals who are not employees of the company. This committee meets periodically with the independent accountants, the internal auditors and management to consider audit results and to discuss significant internal accounting controls, auditing and financial reporting matters. The Audit Committee recommends the selection of the independent accountants, who are then appointed by the board of directors, subject to ratification by the shareholders. The independent accountants are engaged to perform an audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Their report follows. /S/David W. Devonshire Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Report of Independent Accountants PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP 400 Campus Drive Florham Park, NJ 07932 February 1, 2000 To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Ingersoll-Rand Company: In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ingersoll-Rand Company and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. /S/PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
