PART I
Item 1.BUSINESS
General
The company engineers, manufactures and markets a broad range of
specialized trucks, chassis, trailers, and proprietary parts under the
"Oshkosh" trademark. As a specialized vehicle producer, the company holds
a unique position in the industry, having acquired the engineering and
manufacturing expertise and flexibility to profitably build specialty
vehicles in competition with companies much larger than itself. Mass
producers design a vehicle to serve many markets. In contrast, the
company's vehicles, manufactured in low to medium production volumes, are
engineered for market niches where a unique, innovative design will meet a
purchaser's requirements for use in specific, usually adverse operating
conditions. Many of the company's products are found operating in snow,
deserts and soft or rough terrain where there is a need for high
performance or high mobility. Because of the quality of its specialized
vehicles, the company believes its products perform at lower life cycle
costs than those that are mass-produced.
Markets served by the company domestically and internationally are
categorized as defense and commercial. Since 1980, specialized vehicles
sales to the defense market have significantly increased and in fiscal
1994 represented 62% of the company's sales volume, after reaching a peak
of 83% in fiscal 1987.
The company primarily depends upon components made by suppliers for
its products, but manufactures certain important proprietary components.
The company has successfully managed its supply network, which consists of
approximately 2,000 active vendors. Through its reliance on this supply
network for the purchase of certain components, the company is able to
avoid many of the preproduction and fixed costs associated with the
manufacture of those components. However, while the company purchases
many of the high dollar components for assembly, such as engines,
transmissions and axles, it does have significant machining and
fabricating capability. This capability is used for the manufacture of
certain axles, transfer cases, cabs and many smaller parts which add
uniqueness and value to the company's products. Some of these proprietary
components are marketed to other manufacturers.
Products and Markets
The company currently manufactures 8 different series of commercial
trucks and 5 series of motorized chassis, and during fiscal 1994, had two
active contracts with the U.S. Government. Within each series there is a
varying number of models. Models are usually distinguished by differences
in engine, transmission, and axle combinations. Vehicles produced range
in price from $14,000 to $1 million; in horsepower from 105 to 1,025; and
in gross vehicle weight from 10,000 to 150,000 pounds. The company has
designed vehicles to operate in the environmental extremes of arctic cold
or desert heat. With the exception of motorized chassis, most vehicles
are designed with the capability to operate in both highway and off-road
conditions. Oshkosh manufactures a broad range of trailers including
vans, flatbed, container chassis, fruit haulers, and a variety of military
trailers. The company aggressively supports its products with an
aftermarket parts and service organization.
Defense
The company manufactures a range of military vehicles for the U.S.
Department of Defense and export markets and is the free world's largest
producer of heavy-duty military wheeled vehicles. The company has
performed major defense work for the past 50 years. Contracts with the
Department of Defense generally are multi-year contracts. Each contract
provides that the government will purchase a base quantity of vehicles
with options for additional purchases. All obligations of the government
under the contracts are subject to receipt of government funding, and it
is customary to expect purchases when Congress has funded the purchase
through budget appropriations and after the government has committed the
funds to the contractor. The following are defense contracts that were
active in fiscal 1994:
Heavy Equipment Transporter (HET). In January 1990 the company was
awarded a $214 million contract for the production of 1,044 M1070 HETs.
This contract also contained an option for an additional 522 units. The
eight wheel drive M1070 HET is primarily designed to haul the Army's main
battle tank, but also transports other tanks, fighting and recovery
vehicles, self-propelled howitzers, and construction equipment. First
article test approval was received by the company in February 1994.
Production deliveries began in August 1992 and are substantially complete
as of September 1994. The contract is funded at $281.8 million for the
base quantity of 1,044 units and exercised options of 310 units. As of
September 30, 1994, the company has delivered 1331 units under the
contract and will deliver 23 units during 1995. In addition to the U.S.
Army contract, the company produced 50 M1070 HET vehicles for the
government of Saudi Arabia in 1993.
Palletized Load System (PLS). In July 1990 the company was selected
as the producer of the Army's new generation heavy-duty transport truck.
This ten wheel drive truck self-loads and unloads flatracks carrying
palletized cargo. The five year contract for 2,626 units and associated
trailers and flatracks was awarded in September 1990. This contract
contains a 100% option clause. The company received first article test
approval on January 3, 1994. Production began in early 1992 and will
conclude approximately August 1996. The company has produced 1,703 units
as of September 30, 1994. If options are exercised, it will extend the
production period or increase the rate of production. The contract is
currently funded at $897 million for 2,683 trucks under all five program
years, and there is $247 million available under unexercised options.
Backlog at September 30, 1994 was $386 million, which will be produced
ratably through August 1996.
Commercial
The company manufactures a range of vehicles for commercial markets.
The S-series is a forward placement concrete carrier that offers
advantages over conventional rear discharge trucks in that the concrete is
placed from the front of the truck, in full view of the driver while in
the cab, providing superior productivity and customer service.
The company serves municipal markets with products that include
Aircraft Rescue & Fire Fighting (ARFF), snow removal vehicles and waste
transport vehicles. The company believes itself to be the world's largest
producer of ARFF vehicles and produces four models of varying water
capacities. The multi-purpose airport snow removal vehicle is a snow
blower with interchangeable blade plows and brooms. The P-series is a
line of heavy duty, high speed snow plow vehicles. The company has three
model series of refuse vehicles, the A, NC, and NL. These vehicles are
sold to private contractors as well as municipalities.
The company manufactures its L, M, X, V, and S lines of motorized
chassis for sale to manufacturers of motorhomes, buses and delivery step
vans. The company offers the broadest model line in the industry and has
developed a strong niche in the diesel segment of the market.
Other product lines include F-series construction, utility, and heavy
haul transport vehicles, and J-series desert oil field service and heavy
haul transport vehicles.
The company is engaged in the production of trailers that are
marketed under the Oshkosh trademark to commercial and military markets.
The company is marketing its proprietary components to original
equipment manufacturers. Front-driving axles, transfer cases, all wheel
steer, independent suspension, central tire inflation systems (CTIS), and
axle wheel ends are currently being supplied to other original equipment
manufacturers.
Backlog
The company has a funded backlog as of September 30, 1994, of $512
million. The backlog as of September 25, 1993, was $459 million. The
majority of the current backlog relates to funded base and option
quantities under the company's existing defense contracts. Approximately
13% of the current backlog relates to firm orders for commercial trucks,
motorized chassis products, trailers, or non-military parts sales. In
addition, option quantities under the existing defense contracts could
amount to another $255 million, if exercised.
Government Contracts
A significant portion of the company's sales are made to the United
States government under long-term contracts and programs in which there
are significant risks, including the uncertainty of economic conditions
and defense policy. The company's defense business is substantially
dependent upon periodic awards of new contracts and the purchase of base
vehicle quantities and the exercise of options under existing contracts.
The company's existing contracts with the U.S. Government may be
terminated at any time for the convenience of the government. Upon such
termination, the company would be entitled to reimbursement of its
incurred costs and, in general, to payment of a reasonable profit for work
actually performed.
There can be no assurance that the U.S. government will continue to
purchase the company's products at comparable levels. The termination of
any of the company's significant contracts, failure of the government to
purchase quantities under existing contracts or failure of the company to
receive awards of new contracts could have a material adverse effect on
the business operations of the company.
Under firm fixed-price contracts with the government, the price paid
the company is not subject to adjustment to reflect the company's actual
costs, except costs incurred as a result of contract changes ordered by
the government or for economic price adjustment clauses contained in
certain contracts. The company generally attempts to negotiate with the
government the amount of increased compensation to which the company is
entitled for government-ordered changes which result in higher costs. In
the event that the company is unable to negotiate a satisfactory agreement
to provide such increased compensation, the company may file an appeal
with the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals or the U.S. Claims
Court. The company has no such appeals pending.
Marketing and Distribution
All domestic defense products are sold direct and the company
maintains a liaison office in Washington, D.C. The company also sells
defense products to foreign governments direct, through representatives,
or under the United States Foreign Military Sales program. The company's
commercial vehicle, chassis and trailer products and aftermarket parts are
sold either direct to customers or through dealers or distributors,
depending upon geographic area and product line. Supplemental information
relative to export shipments is incorporated by reference to Note 8 of the
financial statements included in the company's Annual Report to
Shareholders for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1994.
Competition
In all the company's markets, the competitors include smaller,
specialized manufacturers as well as the larger, mass producers. The
company believes it has greater technical strength and production
capability than other specialized manufacturers. The company also
believes it has greater flexibility than larger competitors and has the
engineering and manufacturing expertise in the low to middle production
volumes that allows it to compete effectively in its markets against mass
producers.
The principal method of competition for the company in the defense
and municipal markets, where there is intense competition, is generally on
the basis of lowest qualified bid. In the non-governmental markets, the
company competes mainly on the basis of price, innovation, quality and
product performance capabilities.
Engineering, Test and Development
For fiscal years 1994, 1993, and 1992 the company incurred
engineering, research and development expenditures of $8.2 million, $11.0
million, and $10.9 million, respectively, portions of which were
recoverable from customers, principally the government. The company does
not believe that patents are a significant factor in its business success.
Employees
As of September 30, 1994, the company had approximately 1,900
employees. Production workers at the company's principal facilities in
Oshkosh, Wisconsin are represented by the United Auto Workers union. The
company's five-year contract with the United Auto Workers expires
September 30, 1996.
Item 2. PROPERTIES.
The company's principal offices and manufacturing facilities are
located in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Space occupied encompasses 697,761 square
feet, 80,658 of which is leased. One half of the space owned by the
company has been constructed since 1970. The company owns approximately
50 acres of vacant land adjacent to its existing facilities. The company
owns a 153,600 sq. ft. chassis manufacturing plant in Gaffney, SC, and the
trailer office and manufacturing facility with 287,000 sq. ft. located in
Bradenton, FL.
The company's equipment and buildings are modern, well maintained and
adequate for its present and anticipated needs.
In addition, the company has leased parts and service facilities in
Hartford, CT, Greensboro, NC, Chicago, IL and Salt Lake City, UT, and owns
similar facilities in Lakeland, FL and Oshkosh, WI.
Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Various actions or claims have been brought or asserted or may be
contemplated by government authorities against the company. Among these
is a potential action by government authorities against the company in
connection with a grand jury investigation which commenced on April 28,
1989. No charges have been filed against the company or its employees.
The company and its employees have cooperated fully with the government
investigation.
Based on internal reviews and after consultation with counsel, the
company does not have sufficient information to reasonably estimate what
potential future costs, if any, the company may incur as a result of the
government claims or actions. As a result, no provision related to these
issues has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. Costs
incurred in responding to these actions and claims have been expensed as
incurred.
Item 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended September 30, 1994.
