ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Kimberly-Clark Corporation was incorporated in Delaware in
1928. As used in Items 1, 2 and 7 of this Form 10-K Annual
Report, the term "Corporation" refers to Kimberly-Clark
Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. In the
remainder of this Form 10-K Annual Report, the terms "Kimberly-
Clark" or "Corporation" refer to Kimberly-Clark Corporation.
Financial information about product classes and results, and
foreign and domestic operations, and information about
principal products and markets of the Corporation, contained
under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis" and in
Note 12 to the Financial Statements contained in the 1993
Annual Report to Stockholders, are incorporated in this Item 1
by reference.
Description of the Corporation. Kimberly-Clark is principally
engaged in the manufacturing and marketing throughout the world
of a wide range of products for personal, business and
industrial uses. Most of these products are made from natural
and synthetic fibers using advanced technologies in absorbency,
fibers and nonwovens.
The Corporation's products and services are segmented into
three classes.
Class I includes tissue products for household, commercial,
institutional and industrial uses; infant, child, feminine and
incontinence care products; industrial and commercial wipers;
health care products; and related products. Class I products
are sold under a variety of well-known brand names, including
Kleenex, Huggies, Pull-Ups, Kotex, New Freedom, Lightdays,
Depend, Poise, Hi-Dri, Delsey, Spenco, Kimguard and Kimwipes.
Products for home use are sold through supermarkets, mass
merchandisers, drugstores, warehouse clubs, home health care
stores, variety stores, department stores and other retail
outlets, as well as to wholesalers. Other products in this
class are sold to distributors, converters and end-users.
Pulp produced by the Corporation, including amounts sold to
other companies, is included in Class I, except for pulp
manufactured for newsprint and certain specialty papers which
is included in Class II.
Class II includes newsprint, printing papers, premium business
and correspondence papers, tobacco industry papers and
products, technical papers, and related products.
Newsprint and groundwood printing papers are sold directly to
newspaper publishers and commercial printers. Other papers and
specialty products in this class are sold directly to users,
converters, manufacturers, publishers and printers, and through
paper merchants, brokers, sales agents and other resale agencies.
PART I
(Continued)
ITEM 1. BUSINESS (Continued)
Class III includes aircraft services, commercial air
transportation and other products and services.
The Corporation owns various patents and trademarks registered
domestically and in certain foreign countries. The Corporation
considers the patents and trademarks which it owns and the
trademarks under which it sells certain of its products, in
each instance in the aggregate, to be material to its business.
Consequently, the Corporation seeks patent and trademark
protection by all available means, including registration. A
partial list of the Corporation's trademarks is included under
the caption "Trademarks" contained in the 1993 Annual Report to
Stockholders and is incorporated herein by reference.
EMPLOYEES. In its worldwide consolidated operations, the
Corporation had 42,131 employees as of December 31, 1993.
RAW MATERIALS. Cellulose fibers in the form of wood pulp are
the primary raw material for the Corporation's paper and tissue
products and are important components in disposable diapers,
training pants, feminine pads and incontinence care products.
Certain specialty papers are manufactured with other cellulose
fibers such as flax straw and cotton. Large amounts of
secondary and recycled fibers are also consumed, primarily in
tissue products. Superabsorbent materials are important
components in disposable diapers, training pants and
incontinence care products. Polypropylene and other synthetics
are primary raw materials for manufacturing nonwoven fabrics
which are used in disposable diapers, training pants, feminine
pads, incontinence and health care products and industrial
wipers. Most secondary fibers and all synthetics are
purchased. Wood pulp and nonwood cellulose fibers are produced
by the Corporation and purchased from others. The Corporation
considers the supply of such raw materials to be adequate to
meet the needs of its businesses.
For its worldwide consolidated operations, the Corporation's
pulp mills at Coosa Pines, Alabama, and Terrace Bay, Ontario,
had the capacity to supply about two-thirds of the 1993 wood
pulp requirements for products other than newsprint. The
Corporation's newsprint mill at Coosa Pines produces
substantially all of its own pulp requirements.
The Corporation owns or controls 5.1 million acres of
forestland in North America, primarily as a source of fiber for
pulp production. Approximately .4 million acres are owned and
4.7 million acres, principally in Canada, are held under long-term
Crown rights or leases.
Certain states have adopted laws and entered into agreements
with publishers requiring newspapers sold in such states to
contain specified amounts of recycled paper. The Corporation
provides certain newspaper publishers with newsprint containing
specified amounts of recycled paper.
COMPETITION. The Corporation competes in numerous domestic and
foreign markets. The number of competitors and the Corpora-
tion's competitive positions in those markets vary. In
general, in the sale of its principal products, the Corporation
faces strong competition from other manufacturers, some of
which are larger and more diversified than the Corporation.
The Corporation has one major competitor, and several regional
competitors, in its disposable diaper business and several
major competitors in its household and other tissue-based
products, and feminine and incontinence care products
businesses.
During 1993, in the U.S., private label and economy branded
competitors continued to expand distribution of their
disposable training pants nationally in competition with the
Corporation's training pants business, and, in the fourth
quarter, a major competitor initiated regional introductions of
a branded training pant. In foreign markets, the Corporation
has encountered increased competition and expects to encounter
significant competition in connection with its introduction of
training pants and diapers in Europe. Depending on the
characteristics of the market involved, the Corporation com-
petes on the basis of product quality and performance, price,
service, packaging, distribution, advertising and promotion.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. At year-end 1993, approximately
1,200 of the Corporation's employees were engaged in research
and development activities and were located in Neenah,
Wisconsin; Roswell, Georgia; Coosa Pines, Alabama; Troy, Ohio;
Munising, Michigan; Waco, Texas; the United Kingdom; and
France. A major portion of total research and development
expenditures is directed toward new or improved personal care,
health care, household products, and nonwoven materials.
Consolidated research and development expenditures were $158.5
million in 1993, $156.1 million in 1992 and $148.8 million in
1991.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. Capital expenditures for environmental
controls to meet legal requirements and otherwise relating to
the protection of the environment at the Corporation's
facilities in the United States are estimated to be $54 million
in 1994 and $15 million in 1995. Such expenditures are not
expected to have a material effect on the Corporation's total
capital expenditures, consolidated earnings or competitive
position; however, these estimates could be modified as a
result of changes in the Corporation's plans, changes in legal
requirements or other factors.
RISKS FOR FOREIGN OPERATIONS. The products of the Corporation
and its equity companies are made in 21 countries outside the
U.S. Consumer products made abroad or in the U.S. are marketed
in approximately 150 countries. Because these countries are so
numerous, it is not feasible to generally characterize the
risks involved. Such risks vary from country to country and
include such factors as tariffs, trade restrictions, changes in
currency value, economic conditions and international
relations.
INSURANCE. The Corporation maintains coverage consistent with
industry practice for most risks that are incident to its
operations.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Management believes that the Corporation's production
facilities are suitable for their purpose and adequate to
support its businesses. The extent of utilization of
individual facilities varies, but generally they operate at or
near capacity. New facilities of the Corporation are under
construction and others are being expanded. Principal
facilities and products or groups of products made at these
facilities are listed on the following pages. In addition, the
principal facilities of the Corporation's equity companies and
the products or groups of products made at such facilities are
included on the following pages. Products described as
consumer, service and/or nonwoven products include tissue
products for household, commercial, institutional and
industrial uses; infant, child, feminine and incontinence care
products; industrial and commercial wipers; health care
products; and related products.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The following is a brief description of material pending legal
proceedings to which the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries
is a party or of which any of their properties is subject:
A. On March 11, 1993, a class action lawsuit was filed against
the Corporation in the United States District Court, Middle
District of Tennessee (the "Tennessee District Court"), on
behalf of certain retirees who were formerly represented by
the United Paperworkers International Union ("UPIU"). The
Corporation's Motion to Transfer this action to the Eastern
District of Wisconsin was granted.
A similar action was filed in the United States District
Court, Central District of California, on behalf of retirees
who were formerly represented by the Association of Western
Pulp and Paper Workers ("AWPPW") at the Corporation's
Fullerton, California facility. This second action was
voluntarily dismissed and refiled in the Tennessee District
Court on March 25, 1993. The Corporation's Motion to
Transfer this action to the Central District of California
was granted.
The parties to both actions have executed settlement agreements,
dated March 15, 1994, providing for the voluntary dismissal of
such actions, without prejudice, for a period of one year from
the date that such agreements are approved by the respective
courts, subject to certain conditions and circumstances
allowing for the earlier refiling of such actions. On March 23, 1994,
the court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin entered an order
approving the settlement agreement with respect to the UPIU
action. The settlement agreement with respect to the AWPPW
action has been submitted to the court for the Central
District of California for its consideration.
The actions relate to certain changes made by the
Corporation to its retiree medical plans effective January
1, 1993. The allegations in each action are that the
Corporation's retiree medical benefits were vested and could
not be unilaterally amended by the Corporation, and that,
therefore, the retirees are entitled to an unalterable level
of medical benefits. In the event that the AWPPW settlement
agreement is not approved by the court, or the
actions are refiled pursuant to the terms of the settlement
agreements, management has determined that under Financial
Accounting Standard No. 106, and based on prevailing market
interest rates, the estimated cost to the Corporation of not
being able to make any amendments to its retiree medical
plans with respect to the two putative classes of retirees
would result in a maximum pretax charge of approximately
$5.7 million per year.
B. Since September 28, 1990, about 60 employees of contractors
who allegedly worked at the Corporation's mill in Coosa
Pines, Alabama at some point in their careers filed separate
actions in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Texas against the Corporation and approximately
36 other companies. Most of these cases were transferred to
the Federal District Court, Northern District of Alabama and
subsequently have been consolidated in the Federal District
Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania where all asbestos
cases pending at such time in United States Federal District
Courts were consolidated. Approximately 4,713 individuals
refiled three of such cases in the District Court of Orange
County, Texas. The actions allege, with respect to the
Corporation, that the ownership of facilities containing
asbestos caused the plaintiffs to suffer physical injury.
The actions seek unspecified damages. The Corporation has
denied the allegations and has asserted, among other things,
that the claims fail to state a claim upon which relief can
be granted and that such actions are barred by applicable
statutes of limitation. These actions presently are in the
discovery phase.
PART I
(Continued)
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS (Continued)
C. On September 28, 1992, the Corporation filed an action
against Drypers Corporation, Pope & Talbot, Inc. and Pope &
Talbot, Wis., Inc. in the United States District Court,
Western District of Washington, alleging patent infringement
with respect to the defendants' use of containment flaps in
disposable diapers. In June 1993, each of the defendants
filed counterclaims against the Corporation alleging that
the Corporation misused its patent in violation of the
federal antitrust laws. The defendants are seeking
invalidation of the patent, treble damages based on the
defendants' attorneys fees for defending the patent suit,
and the defendants' attorney fees for prosecuting the
antitrust counterclaim. The case is currently in discovery.
A trial date has been set for June 7, 1994.
The Corporation also is subject to routine litigation from time
to time which individually or in the aggregate is not expected
to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's business
or results of operations.
Environmental Matters
- ---------------------
(See the Corporation's 1993 Annual Report to Stockholders under
the "Environmental Matters" section of "Management's Discussion
and Analysis.")
The Corporation has been named a potentially responsible party
("PRP") under the provisions of the federal Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
("CERCLA"), or analogous state statute, at 21 waste disposal
sites, none of which, in management's opinion, could have a
material adverse impact on the Corporation's business or
results of operations. Notwithstanding its opinion, management
believes it appropriate to disclose the following recent
developments concerning three of these sites where the extent
of the Corporation's liability cannot yet be established:
A. The South 8th Street Landfill Site, located across the
Mississippi River from Memphis, Tennessee, in Crittenden
County, Arkansas, is a 30-acre site that received municipal
and industrial waste from the 1950's to the early 1980's.
The site is divided into three separate landfill disposal
areas and an oily sludge pit area. A refining company (the
"Refiner") apparently used the pit area for the disposal of
waste sludge from its oil re-refining process through
November 1969.
On September 9, 1992, the Environmental Protection Agency
(the "EPA") identified Kimberly-Clark's Memphis mill as a
PRP at the site. The mill was linked to the site by an
affidavit of an employee of the Refiner which alleged that
the Refiner picked up waste oil at the mill for re-refining.
While Kimberly-Clark did not send hazardous wastes to the
site, it did send used oil to the Refiner for reclamation.
The EPA recently conducted a Remedial Investigation and
Feasibility Study with respect to the site. Based on such
study, the EPA's preferred remedial alternative for the
landfill area is organic treatment, stabilization and
disposal in a licensed, nonhazardous landfill at a cost of
$14.8 million to $18.1 million. The EPA's preferred
remedial alternative for the oily sludge pit is natural soil
cover at a cost of $2.3 million. There are approximately
103 members, including Kimberly-Clark, of the PRP group with
respect to the site. The Corporation's estimated share of
total site remediation cost, if any, cannot yet be
established.
B. In August 1992, Kimberly-Clark's Spotswood, New Jersey mill
received an information request from the New Jersey
Department of Environmental Protection and Energy ("NJDEPE")
with respect to the Jones Industrial Service Landfill.
Kimberly-Clark currently has no information about the site
or the status of the NJDEPE's actions to date. Kimberly-
Clark does not have records indicating that the mill used
the site. However, the Spotswood mill has used an
industrial company for nonhazardous waste disposal services
and has received routing sheets from such company which
indicate that the company may have sent three loads of
Spotswood mill waste to the site in September 1980. Until
Kimberly-Clark receives the site information requested from
the State of New Jersey, no determination regarding the
extent of Kimberly-Clark's liability, if any, can be made.
C. On February 6, 1991, the NJDEPE identified the Corporation
as a PRP under the provisions of the New Jersey Spill
Compensation and Control Act for remediation of the Global
Sanitary Landfill waste disposal site located in Old Bridge
Township, New Jersey based on the Corporation's disposal of
waste at such site. The EPA has designated the disposal
site as a state-led site under CERCLA with the NJDEPE acting
as lead agency. In May 1991, the Corporation signed a PRP
agreement and paid an administrative assessment. In August
1993, a consent decree was executed by the State of New
Jersey and the PRPs, pursuant to which the Corporation
agreed to pay $575,000 for its share of Phase I cleanup
costs. The Corporation's share of Phase II cleanup costs,
if any, cannot yet be established.
