AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) In the opinion of Tenneco Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the "Company"), the accompanying unaudited financial statements of Tenneco Inc. and consolidated subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as "Tenneco") contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 1995, and the results of operations; changes in shareowners' equity; changes in preferred stock with mandatory redemption provisions; and cash flows for the periods indicated. The financial statements of Tenneco include all majority- owned subsidiaries including wholly-owned finance subsidiaries. Companies in which at least a 20% to a 50% voting interest is owned are carried at cost plus equity in undistributed earnings since date of acquisition (except for Tenneco's Farm and construction equipment segment as noted below) and cumulative translation adjustments. In June 1994, Tenneco completed an initial public offering ("IPO") of approximately 29% of the common stock of Case Corporation ("Case"), the holder of Tenneco's Farm and construction equipment segment. In November 1994, a secondary offering of Case's common stock reduced Tenneco's ownership to approximately 44%. From January through November 1994, Case's financial statements were fully consolidated with Tenneco's. From July through November 1994, the financial statements reflected the 29% minority shareowners' interest in Case. Subsequent to November 1994, Case was reflected in Tenneco's financial statements using the equity method of accounting. See Note 5 for additional information regarding Tenneco's investment in Case. The accompanying financial statements also include, on a separate and supplemental basis, the combination of Tenneco's industrial companies and finance companies as follows: Tenneco Industrial-- The financial information captioned "Tenneco Industrial" reflects the consolidation of all majority-owned subsidiaries except for the finance subsidiaries. The finance operations have been included using the equity method of accounting whereby the net income and net assets of these companies are reflected, respectively, in the income statement caption, "Equity in net income of affiliated companies," and in the balance sheet caption, "Investment in affiliated companies." Tenneco Finance-- The financial information captioned "Tenneco Finance" reflects the combination of Tenneco's wholly-owned finance subsidiaries. Prior to the Case IPO, the wholesale (dealer) credit and retail credit operations of Case were financed by wholly-owned finance subsidiaries. Subsequent to the IPO, the wholesale (dealer) credit operations are being financed by industrial subsidiaries. As a result of this change, interest expense related to the wholesale (dealer) credit operations has been reported as "Interest Expense" from July through November 1994, rather than "Finance charges--Tenneco Finance" as in prior periods. If the prior period was reclassified to reflect this prospective presentation of interest expense related to wholesale (dealer) credit operations, consolidated "Finance charges--Tenneco Finance" would have been reduced and "Interest Expense" would have been increased by $10 million and $18 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1994, respectively, with no effect on consolidated net income. All significant intercompany transactions, including activity within and between the "Tenneco Industrial" and "Tenneco Finance" business units, have been eliminated. The inclusion of Series A preferred stock in the computation of earnings per share was antidilutive for the first half of 1994. In December 1994, all Series A preferred stock was converted into common stock. Prior years' financial statements have been reclassified where appropriate to conform to 1995 presentations. 10 TENNECO INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) (2) Pursuant to Order 636 issued by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") on April 8, 1992, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company ("Tennessee") implemented revisions to its tariff which put into effect on September 1, 1993, the restructuring of its transportation, storage and sales services. Pursuant to the provisions of Order 636 allowing for the recovery of transition costs related to the restructuring, Tennessee has made filings to recover gas production costs related to its Bastian Bay facilities, the remaining balance of purchased gas ("PGA") costs, stranded transportation ("TBO") costs and gas supply realignment ("GSR") costs resulting from remaining gas purchase obligations. Tennessee's filings to recover production costs related to its Bastian Bay facilities have been rejected by the FERC based on the continued use of the gas production from the field; however, the FERC recognized the ability of Tennessee to file for the recovery of losses upon disposition of these assets. Tennessee has filed for appellate review of the FERC actions and is confident that the Bastian Bay costs will ultimately be recovered as transition costs directly related to Order 636, and no FERC order has questioned the ultimate recoverability of these costs. The filings implementing Tennessee's recovery mechanisms for the following transition costs were accepted effective September 1, 1993, and made subject to refund pending FERC review: 1) direct-billing of unrecovered PGA costs to its former sales customers over a twelve-month period, 2) recovery of TBO costs, which Tennessee is obligated to pay under existing contracts, through a surcharge from firm transportation customers, adjusted annually, and 3) GSR cost recovery of 90% of such costs over a period of up to thirty-six months from firm transportation customers and recovery of 10% of such costs from interruptible transportation customers. Following negotiations with its customers, Tennessee filed in July 1994 with the FERC a Stipulation and Agreement (the "PGA Stipulation"), which provides for the recovery of PGA costs of approximately $100 million and the recovery of costs associated with the transfer of storage gas inventory to new storage customers in Tennessee's restructuring proceeding. The PGA Stipulation eliminates all challenges to the PGA costs, but establishes a cap on the charges that may be imposed upon former sales customers. On November 15, 1994, the FERC issued an order approving the PGA Stipulation and resolving all outstanding issues. On April 5, 1995, the FERC issued its order on rehearing affirming its initial approval of the PGA Stipulation. Tennessee implemented the terms of the PGA Stipulation and made refunds in May 1995. The orders approving the PGA Stipulation have been appealed to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals by certain customers. Tennessee believes the PGA Stipulation will be upheld on appeal. Tennessee is recovering TBO costs formerly incurred to perform its sales functions, subject to refund, pending review of data submitted by Tennessee. On November 18, 1994, the FERC issued an order on Tennessee's initial TBO surcharge filing to recover TBO costs for the twelve-month period beginning September 1, 1993. The order required Tennessee to remove certain costs from this surcharge. Tennessee has appealed this decision to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. On November 30, 1994, Tennessee filed with the FERC to collect through a surcharge approximately $25 million annually of TBO costs in compliance with the FERC's November 18, 1994 order, and in a separate filing, Tennessee filed to recover its projected annual TBO costs of approximately $21 million for the twelve-month period beginning January 1, 1995. The FERC accepted Tennessee's filing to recover its projected TBO costs, subject to refund. With regard to Tennessee's GSR costs, Tennessee, along with three other pipelines, executed four separate settlement agreements with Dakota Gasification Company and the U.S. Department of Energy and initiated four separate proceedings at the FERC seeking approval to implement the settlement agreements. The settlement resolved litigation concerning purchases made by Tennessee of synthetic gas produced from the Great Plains Coal Gasification plant ("Great Plains"). On October 18, 1994, the FERC consolidated the 11 TENNECO INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) four proceedings and set them for hearing before an administrative law judge ("ALJ"). The hearing, which concluded in July 1995, was limited to the issue of whether the settlement agreements are prudent. The ALJ is required to issue his initial decision by December 31, 1995. The FERC has committed to issuing a final order by December 31, 1996. The FERC order stated that the costs related to the Great Plains project are eligible for recovery through GSR and other special recovery mechanisms and that the costs are eligible for recovery for the duration of the term of the original gas purchase agreements. Also related to Tennessee's GSR costs, on October 14, 1993, Tennessee was sued in the State District Court of Ector County, Texas, by ICA Energy, Inc. ("ICA") and TransTexas Gas Corporation ("TransTexas"). In that suit, ICA and TransTexas contended that Tennessee had an obligation to purchase gas production which TransTexas thereafter attempted to add unilaterally to the reserves originally dedicated to a 1979 gas contract. On two subsequent occasions, TransTexas gave Tennessee notice that it was adding new production and/or acreage "to the contract." An amendment to the pleadings seeks $1.5 billion from Tennessee for alleged damages caused by Tennessee's refusal to purchase gas produced from the TransTexas leases covering the new production and lands. Neither ICA nor TransTexas were original parties to that contract. However, they contend that any stranger acquiring a fractional interest in the original committed reserves thereby obtains a right to add to the contract unlimited volumes of gas production from locations in South Texas. Tennessee filed a motion for summary judgment, asserting that the Texas statutes of frauds precluded the plaintiffs from adding new production or acreage to the contract. On May 4, 1995, the trial court granted Tennessee's motion for summary judgment. The plaintiffs have filed a notice of appeal. Tennessee has been engaged in separate settlement and contract reformation discussions with holders of certain gas purchase contracts who have sued Tennessee. Although Tennessee believes that its defenses in the underlying gas purchase contract actions are meritorious, Tennessee recorded liabilities in the first quarter of 1995 which it believes are adequate to cover the resolution of these matters. On August 1, 1995, the Texas Supreme Court affirmed a ruling favorable to Tennessee of the Court of Appeals in one of these matters and indicated that it would remand the case to the trial court. As of August 11, 1995, the mandate had not yet been issued on this ruling. Tennessee is reassessing these liabilities in light of this favorable Texas Supreme Court ruling. As of June 30, 1995, Tennessee has deferred GSR costs yet to be recovered from its customers of approximately $493 million, net of $270 million previously recovered from its customers, subject to refund. Proceedings have commenced to review the recovery of these GSR costs; however, the FERC has generally encouraged pipelines to settle such issues through negotiations with customers. Although Order 636 contemplates complete recovery by pipelines of qualified transition costs, Tennessee is engaged in settlement discussions with its customers concerning the amount of recoverable GSR costs in response to the FERC and customer statements acknowledging the desirability of such settlements. Given the uncertainty over the results of ongoing discussions between Tennessee and its customers related to the recovery of GSR costs and the uncertainty related to predicting the outcome of its gas purchase contract reformation efforts and the associated litigation, Tenneco is unable to predict the timing or the ultimate impact the resolution of these issues will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. On December 30, 1994, Tennessee filed a general rate increase in Docket No. RP95-112 (the "1995 Rate Case") which reflected an increase in Tennessee's revenue requirement of $118 million, including recovery of certain environmental costs as discussed in Note 4. On January 25, 1995, the FERC accepted the filing, suspended its effectiveness for the maximum period of five months pursuant to normal regulatory process, and set the matter for hearing. With modifications, the proposed rates in the 1995 Rate Case became effective on July 1, 1995, subject to refund. Settlement discussions with the FERC staff and customers are ongoing and Tennessee will reserve revenues it believes adequate to cover any refunds which may be required upon final settlement of this proceeding. 12 TENNECO INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) Also on January 25, 1995, the FERC issued an order requiring the convening of a technical conference to discuss certain issues in the 1995 Rate Case and concerns expressed in response to operational issues in a 1995 tariff filing. The concerns include Tennessee's ability to provide its shippers with timely and accurate operating and billing information and the associated systems costs. Several technical conferences were held during the second quarter of 1995 resulting in modifications to the 1995 tariff filing and the assignment of certain issues to the 1995 Rate Case for final resolution. The ultimate resolution of these issues may result in adjustments to customer billings. (3) Reference is made to Note 2 for information concerning gas supply litigation. Tenneco Inc. and its subsidiaries are parties to numerous other legal proceedings arising from their operations. Tenneco Inc. believes that the outcome of these proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will have no material effect on the financial position or results of operations of Tenneco Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. (4) Since 1988, Tennessee has been engaged in an internal project to identify and deal with the presence of polychlorinated biphenyls ("PCBs") and other substances of concern, including substances on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") List of Hazardous Substances ("HS List") at compressor stations and other facilities operated by both its interstate and intrastate natural gas pipeline systems. While conducting this project, Tennessee has been in frequent contact with federal and state regulatory agencies, both through informal negotiation and formal entry of consent orders, in order to assure that its efforts meet regulatory requirements. Tenneco has established a reserve for Tennessee's environmental expenses, which includes: 1) expected remediation expense and associated onsite, offsite and groundwater technical studies, 2) legal fees and 3) settlement of third party and governmental litigation, including civil penalties. Through June 30, 1995, Tenneco has charged approximately $107 million against the environmental reserve. Of the remaining reserve, $30 million has been recorded on the balance sheet under "Payables--Trade" and $126 million under "Deferred Credits and Other Liabilities." Due to the current uncertainty regarding the estimated costs of the further activity necessary for Tennessee to address the presence of the PCBs, the substances on the HS List and other substances of concern on its sites, including the requirements for additional site characterization, the actual amount of such substances at the sites, and the final, site-specific cleanup decisions to be made with respect to cleanup levels and remediation technologies, Tennessee cannot at this time accurately project what additional costs, if any, may arise from future characterization and remediation activities. While there are still many uncertainties relating to the ultimate costs which may be incurred, based upon Tennessee's evaluation and experience to date, Tenneco continues to believe that the amount of the reserve is adequate. Tenneco believes that a substantial portion of these costs, which will be expended over the next five to ten years, will be recovered from customers of its natural gas pipelines. The Stipulation and Agreement approved by the FERC in Tennessee's 1991 rate case established procedures for resolving the recovery of certain environmental expenditures. These environmental costs are currently being collected in Tennessee's rates subject to further review and possible refund. Following negotiations with its customers, Tennessee in May 1995 filed with the FERC a separate Stipulation and Agreement (the "Environmental Stipulation") that addresses the recovery of environmental costs currently being recovered in its rates and also establishes a mechanism for recovering a substantial portion of the environmental costs that will be expended in the future. Upon FERC approval, the Environmental Stipulation will become effective as of July 1, 1995, and will have no material effect on Tenneco's financial position or results of operations. As of June 30, 1995, the balance of the regulatory asset is $113 million. Tenneco believes that its liability insurance policies in effect during the period in which the environmental issues occurred provide coverage for remediation costs and related claims. Tennessee has pending litigation in a Louisiana state court against its insurance carriers during this period, seeking recovery of costs which Tennessee incurred. The issues in dispute involve determining: 1) whether the presence of 13 TENNECO INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) PCBs and other substances at each compressor station constituted a separate occurrence for purposes of the per-occurrence limits of the policies; 2) the applicability of the pollution exclusions in certain policies issued after 1971; 3) the applicability of provisions which exclude the environmental impacts located solely on the insured's property; 4) whether the term "property damage" in the policies will cover the cost of compliance with governmental cleanup directives; 5) the allocation of costs to the various policies in effect during the period the environmental impact occurred; 6) the applicability of provisions excluding pollution that is "expected or intended" and 7) the adequacy of notice of claims to insurance carriers. Tenneco has completed settlements with and is receiving payments from the majority of the defendant carriers and believes that the likelihood of recovery of a portion of its remediation costs and claims against the remaining defendant carriers is reasonably possible. In July 1994, Tennessee commenced litigation in a Kentucky state court against the manufacturer of the PCB-containing lubricant used by Tennessee, seeking reimbursement of sums Tennessee has and will incur in the defense and settlement of PCB-related claims brought by state and federal agencies, private individuals and others. Tennessee anticipates that the defendant will raise a variety of issues in dispute of Tennessee's claims. While Tenneco believes its legal position to be meritorious, Tenneco has not adjusted its environmental reserve to reflect any anticipated insurance recoveries or recoveries from the manufacturer of the PCB-containing lubricant. Recoveries could reduce the amount ultimately recoverable from customers. Tenneco has identified other sites in its various operating divisions where environmental remediation expenses may be required should there be a change in ownership, operations or applicable regulations. These possibilities cannot be predicted or quantified at this time and accordingly, no provision has been recorded. However, provisions have been made for all instances where it has been determined that the incurrence of any material remedial expense is probable. (5) On August 9, 1995, Tenneco sold in a public offering 16.1 million shares of common stock of Case Corporation at $35 per share. Net proceeds of approximately $540 million will be used for ongoing investment programs and Tenneco stock repurchases. The offering reduced Tenneco's ownership in Case from 44% to 21%. (6) In June 1995, Tenneco acquired the natural gas pipeline assets of the Pipeline Authority of South Australia ("PASA"), which includes a 488-mile pipeline, for approximately $225 million. The purchase was made possible by the privatization of Australia's natural gas industry. Tenneco is already developing a 470-mile pipeline in southwest Queensland, Australia. Over the longer term, as the pipeline in Queensland is developed, Tenneco should realize significant economies of scale, operating both systems from an existing, centralized gas control center with a single engineering and technical staff. Pipe for the Queensland transmission system was ordered in the second quarter of 1995, with construction expected to begin in late 1995. The pipeline is expected to enter service by January 1997. In the second quarter of 1995, Tenneco completed four acquisitions of packaging plants and companies for a total of approximately $50 million. Tenneco has accounted for all of these acquisitions by the "purchase" method of accounting. If these assets had been acquired January 1, 1995, there would not have been a significant effect on net income. (7) Tenneco substantially completed its $500 million stock repurchase program initiated in December 1994. Through June 30, 1995, 10.4 million shares have been acquired at a cost of $465 million. The remaining $35 million under the program will be used to purchase shares as they are issued from the Stock Employee Compensation Trust ("SECT") this year. In July 1995, Tenneco announced an additional repurchase program for up to three million shares of its common stock. 14 TENNECO INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) (8) In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 which establishes new accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. Tenneco will adopt the new standard in the first quarter of 1996 but does not expect that the adoption will have a material effect on Tenneco's consolidated financial position or results of operations. (The above notes are an integral part of the foregoing financial statements.) 15 TENNECO INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS RESULTS REVENUES Net sales and operating revenues for the second quarter of 1995 were $2.20 billion, down from $3.26 billion in the second quarter of 1994 primarily due to the exclusion of revenues from Case Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Case") due to the change to the equity method of accounting for Case in December 1994. (See Note 1 in the "Notes to Financial Statements" for additional information.) Excluding Case second quarter 1994 revenues, revenues increased three percent compared with the second quarter of 1994. Natural gas pipelines revenues were down $173 million or 29 percent primarily due to decreased volumes and lower gas spot prices in the nonregulated sector, and the phase-out of gas sales in the regulated sector as a result of operating under Order 636 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC"). Automotive parts revenues increased $116 million or 21 percent, of which $87 million resulted from the Heinrich Gillet GmbH & Company ("Gillet") acquisition in November 1994. Packaging revenues increased $155 million or 29 percent from improved price realizations in the paperboard packaging business, which includes containerboard and folding boxboard operations. Shipbuilding revenues decreased $40 million or nine percent as a result of lower volume on carrier and submarine work. INCOME BEFORE INTEREST EXPENSE, INCOME TAXES AND MINORITY INTEREST ("OPERATING INCOME") Operating income for the second quarter of 1995 was $369 million, down $6 million or two percent, compared with $375 million for the second quarter of 1994. The 1995 second quarter operating income included $48 million for Tenneco's 44 percent interest in Case's earnings, while the 1994 second quarter operating income included 100 percent of Case's income before interest and taxes, and a $9 million gain on the initial public offering of Case. Excluding the impact of these items from both periods, Tenneco's operating income improved 26 percent compared with the second quarter of 1994. This improvement was due principally to higher prices and improved productivity in packaging's paperboard business, which reflected strong demand from favorable economic conditions in the United States and Europe. NATURAL GAS PIPELINES Natural gas pipelines reported operating income of $68 million in the 1995 second quarter compared with $89 million in the 1994 second quarter. Revenues for the second quarter of 1995 decreased to $432 million compared with $605 million in the second quarter of 1994 primarily due to the decline in gas spot prices and lower volumes in the nonregulated segment and the phase-out of gas sales by the regulated pipelines. The entire decrease in operating income was in the regulated business which resulted from competitive pressures in some markets related to operating under FERC Order 636. The natural gas pipeline industry is experiencing increasing competition, which is the result of actions by the FERC to strengthen market forces throughout the industry. In a number of key markets, Tenneco's interstate pipelines face competitive pressure from other major pipeline systems, enabling local distribution companies and end users to choose a supplier or switch suppliers based on the short-term price of the gas and the cost of transportation. Tenneco's pipelines have been required to discount their transportation rates to maintain market share. Additionally, the majority of Tennessee's transportation contracts will be expiring over the next five years. The renegotiation of these contracts may be impacted by such competitive factors. (See Note 2 in the "Notes to Financial Statements" for additional information.) In April 1995, Tenneco announced its intent to sell its 50% interest in Kern River Gas Transmission Company ("Kern River") provided an agreement can be reached with a buyer on terms acceptable to 16 Tenneco. Kern River owns a 904-mile natural gas pipeline system extending from southwestern Wyoming to Bakersfield, California. In June 1995, Tenneco acquired the natural gas pipeline assets of the Pipeline Authority of South Australia ("PASA"), which includes a 488-mile pipeline, for approximately $225 million. The purchase was made possible by the privatization of Australia's natural gas industry. Tenneco is already developing a 470-mile pipeline in southwest Queensland, Australia. Over the longer term, as the pipeline in Queensland is developed, Tenneco should realize significant economies of scale, operating both systems from an existing, centralized gas control center with a single engineering and technical staff. Pipe for the Queensland transmission system was ordered in the second quarter of 1995, with construction expected to begin in late 1995. The pipeline is expected to enter service by January 1997. AUTOMOTIVE PARTS Automotive parts reported second quarter 1995 operating income of $78 million compared with $77 million in the second quarter of 1994. Second quarter 1994 operating income included a $5 million charge to reduce excess capacity. Revenues for the second quarter of 1995 increased to $661 million compared with $545 million in last year's second quarter, primarily as a result of the acquisition of Gillet, which added $87 million in revenues. Profit margins declined in the second quarter of 1995 due to the integration of Walker Europe with Gillet, the largest supplier of exhaust systems for auto manufacturers in Europe, and competitive pressure in the exhaust and ride control aftermarket. Aftermarket sales rose six percent worldwide, primarily in Europe where aftermarket sales increased 16 percent from the same quarter a year ago. Original equipment sales grew 50 percent worldwide with much of this increase supplied by the Gillet acquisition and the improving European economy. Tenneco expects new vehicle sales in Europe to rise by two to two and one-half percent in 1995 and new car and truck production in North America to equal last year. PACKAGING Second quarter 1995 operating income for packaging was $128 million, up $84 million, compared with $44 million generated in the 1994 second quarter. Revenues for the 1995 second quarter were $682 million compared with $527 million in the same period last year, up 29 percent primarily due to improved price realizations in the paperboard packaging business. The paperboard packaging business reported operating income of $112 million in the second quarter, compared with $24 million in the year ago quarter, up $88 million. The improvement in operating income was primarily due to continued strong market conditions and limited capacity increases resulting in improved pricing, offset somewhat by higher costs for recycled fiber. Improved productivity and operating efficiencies also contributed to the higher operating income. Market prices for old corrugated containers, a major component of recycled fiber, escalated to approximately $170 per ton for the second quarter, up from $77 per ton for the 1994 second quarter. The outlook for containerboard remains positive, with industry containerboard production rising six percent through May 1995 and operating rates at 100 percent as compared with 98 percent for the same period last year. Industry inventory levels, at 5.5 weeks of supply, are still below the normal six-weeks level. Productivity of containerboard mills rose nearly three percent over the year- ago period with all-time production records at the Valdosta and Tomahawk mills. Reduced downtime and rejects, combined with increased machine speed, contributed to the productivity gains. Specialty packaging reported operating income of $16 million in the second quarter of 1995, compared with $20 million for the same period last year. Operating income continued to be adversely affected by increases in raw material costs. The costs of polystyrene and aluminum reroll were up more than 35 percent from the second quarter of 1994, and the cost of old newspapers, the primary raw material for molded fiber products, remained at record high levels. Looking forward, it appears that polystyrene costs are stabilizing and aluminum costs are trending down. 17 In the 1995 second quarter, packaging completed four acquisitions for approximately $50 million, the largest of which was Lux Packaging, Ltd. ("Lux"). Lux is a Texas-based leader in gravure preprinting for corrugated packaging. Annual sales of these acquisitions are estimated to be approximately $65 million. SHIPBUILDING Shipbuilding reported second quarter operating income of $46 million compared with $53 million in the 1994 second quarter. Revenues decreased $40 million to $424 million in the second quarter of 1995 compared with $464 million in the same period last year as a result of lower volume on carrier and submarine work largely due to the redelivery of the aircraft carrier USS ENTERPRISE in September 1994 and deliveries of the submarines CHARLOTTE and TOLEDO in August 1994 and January 1995, respectively. Operating income declined due to revised profit margins on SEALIFT work and lower volume on carrier and submarine work. The backlog at the end of the second quarter of 1995 was $4.9 billion and included construction contracts for three LOS ANGELES class submarines and three NIMITZ class aircraft carriers, a conversion contract for two fast SEALIFT ships and four "Double Eagle" product tankers. In all, Newport News has contracts or letters of intent for up to 14 of the double-hulled tankers introduced only a year ago. The backlog grew an additional $400 million in July 1995 with a new contract to overhaul the aircraft carrier USS EISENHOWER. OTHER Tenneco recorded $48 million in operating income which represented its 44 percent ownership in Case's earnings for the second quarter of 1995 compared with 100 percent of Case's operating income of $111 million in the second quarter of 1994. INTEREST EXPENSE (NET OF INTEREST CAPITALIZED) Interest expense decreased from $97 million in the 1994 second quarter to $87 million in the second quarter of 1995. The decline was primarily attributable to lower debt levels that resulted from the deconsolidation of Case in November 1994 and scheduled long-term debt retirements. Interest capitalized increased from $1 million in the 1994 second quarter to $2 million in the second quarter of 1995. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense for the second quarter of 1995 was $91 million versus $117 million reported for the 1994 second quarter. This decrease was primarily due to lower 1995 pre-tax income excluding Case equity income. The 1994 period included tax expense of $8 million attributable to the gain on the 1994 second quarter IPO of Case stock. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND EXTRAORDINARY LOSS Loss from discontinued operations in the second quarter of 1994 of $14 million (net of an income tax benefit of $16 million) resulted from the sale of Tenneco's chemicals and brakes businesses. The loss included a $21 million loss (net of income tax benefit of $15 million) on the sale of automotive's brakes business. Also included in the 1994 second quarter is net loss from the brakes operations of $3 million, net of an income tax benefit of $4 million. Net income from the chemicals operations in the second quarter of 1994 was $10 million, net of income tax expense of $3 million. The extraordinary loss of $5 million for the second quarter of 1994 resulted from the redemption premium associated with the prepayment of long-term debt. 18 EARNINGS PER AVERAGE COMMON SHARE Net income for the second quarter of 1995 was $185 million, or $1.05 per average common share after preferred stock dividends, compared with net income of $142 million, or 77 cents per average common share after preferred stock dividends, in the 1994 second quarter. Preferred stock dividends were $3 million for the second quarter of 1995 and $4 million for the second quarter of 1994. Included in the second quarter 1994 net income of $142 million was income from continuing operations of $161 million, or 88 cents per average common share, loss from discontinued operations of $14 million, or eight cents per average common share, and an extraordinary loss of $5 million, or three cents per average common share. Average shares outstanding used for the calculation of earnings per average common share for the second quarter of 1995 were 173.7 million compared to 179.9 million in the 1994 second quarter. The decrease was primarily the result of the common stock repurchase program partially offset by the issuance of shares from the stock employee compensation trust ("SECT") to employee benefit plans. SIX MONTHS RESULTS REVENUES Net sales and operating revenues for the first six months of 1995 were $4.36 billion, down from $6.31 billion reported in 1994 primarily due to the exclusion of farm and construction equipment revenues as a result of the change to the equity method of accounting for Case in December 1994. Excluding Case revenues for the first half of 1994, revenues increased four percent, compared with the first six months of 1994. Higher revenues for packaging (up $300 million or 29 percent) and automotive parts (up $253 million or 25 percent) were partially offset by lower revenues for natural gas pipelines (down $361 million or 28 percent), and shipbuilding (down $22 million or three percent). INCOME BEFORE INTEREST EXPENSE, INCOME TAXES AND MINORITY INTEREST ("OPERATING INCOME") Operating income for the first six months of 1995 was $693 million compared with $669 million reported for the same period of 1994, an improvement of four percent. Natural gas pipelines reported operating income of $148 million for the first half of 1995 compared with $194 million in the same period of 1994. Revenues decreased to $937 million compared to $1.30 billion in the first six months of 1994 primarily due to the decline in gas spot prices and lower volumes in the nonregulated segment and the phase-out of gas sales by the regulated pipelines. Operating income declined in the first half of 1995 mainly due to competitive pressures related to operating under FERC Order 636. Operating income also decreased as a result of depressed natural gas demand and prices in the nonregulated business in the first quarter of 1995. Automotive parts reported first half 1995 operating income of $134 million compared with $131 million recorded in the same period a year ago. Year-to-date revenues for 1995 totaled $1.26 billion as compared with last year's amount of $1.01 billion. Revenues increased primarily as a result of the acquisition of Gillet, which added $173 million in revenues, and increased European aftermarket revenues. Profit margins declined in the first half of 1995 due to the integration of Walker Europe with Gillet and competitive pressure in the exhaust aftermarket. Shipbuilding reported first half 1995 operating income of $90 million compared with $101 million in the same period in 1994. Revenues were $845 million for the first six months of 1995 compared with $867 million in the first half of 1994. Revenue and operating income decreases resulted from lower volumes on carrier and submarine construction contracts. Operating income declined primarily as a result of revised profit margins on SEALIFT work. Packaging had operating income of $244 million in the first six months of 1995 versus $64 million in the prior year period. Revenues were $1.32 billion in the first half of 1995 compared with $1.02 billion 19 in the first half of 1994. Higher revenues and operating income were primarily due to strengthening containerboard pricing. In addition, the 1995 first quarter operating income included a $14 million gain on the sale of a mill in Sylva, North Carolina. Tenneco recorded $74 million in operating income which represented its 44 percent ownership in Case's earnings for the first half of 1995 compared with 100 percent of Case's operating income of $192 million in the first half of 1994. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense decreased from $193 million in the first half of 1994 to $171 million in the first half of 1995, while interest capitalized was $3 million in both periods. The year-to-year change in these items was due to the same reasons discussed under "Three Months Results" above. INCOME TAXES Income tax expense for the first half of 1995 was $173 million versus $194 million in the same period of 1994. Income tax expense decreased in the first half of 1995 due to lower pre-tax income excluding Case equity income. The 1994 period also included higher taxes on asset sales attributable to the gain on the Case IPO and higher levels of unbenefitted European losses. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND EXTRAORDINARY LOSS Loss from discontinued operations for the first half of 1994 of $13 million (net of an income tax benefit of $17 million) included a $21 million loss (net of income tax benefit of $15 million) on the sale of Tenneco's brakes business and a loss of $5 million (net of income tax benefit of $5 million) from the brakes operations. Net income from the chemicals operations for the first half of 1994 was $13 million, net of income tax expense of $3 million. The extraordinary loss for the first half of 1994 of $5 million was attributable to the second quarter early redemption premiums on long-term debt as discussed under "Three Months Results" above. CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF A CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE Effective January 1, 1994, Tenneco adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits. This new standard was adopted using the cumulative catch-up method and requires employers to account for postemployment benefits for former or inactive employees after employment but before retirement on the accrual basis rather than the "pay-as-you-go" basis. As a result of the adoption of this statement, the 1994 Statement of Income includes an after-tax charge of $39 million, or 22 cents per average common share, for the cumulative effect of the accounting change. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER AVERAGE COMMON SHARE Income from continuing operations for the first half of 1995 was $338 million, or $1.89 per average common share after preferred stock dividends, compared with income from continuing operations of $282 million, or $1.54 per average common share after preferred stock dividends, in the 1994 first half. Preferred stock dividends were $6 million in the first half of 1995 and $7 million in the 1994 first half. Loss from discontinued operations for the first half of 1994 was $13 million, or seven cents per average common share. Also included in 1994 was the charge of $39 million, or 22 cents per average common share, related to the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The extraordinary loss for the first six months of 1994 was $5 million, or three cents per average common share. Net income to common stock for the first six months of 1995 was $332 million, or $1.89 per average common share, compared to net income to common stock of $218 million, or $1.22 per average common share, for the first half of 1994. Average shares outstanding used for the calculation of earnings per average common share for the first half of 1995 were 175.8 million compared to 179.3 million in the first half of 1994. The decrease was primarily 20 the result of the common stock repurchase program partially offset by the issuance of SECT shares to employee benefit plans during the second half of 1994 and the first half of 1995, respectively. CASH FLOW Net cash provided by operating activities was $255 million for the first six months of 1995 compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $269 million for the same period in 1994, a decrease of $14 million. This decrease in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to higher working capital requirements, particularly inventories and higher income tax payments. Inventories increased in the first six months of 1995 due primarily to higher anticipated sales and increased raw material costs. Net cash provided by investing activities in the first half of 1995 was $183 million compared with net cash provided of $286 million in the first six months of 1994. Proceeds from the sale of businesses and assets were higher in the first half of 1995 due to the completion of an IPO of the Albright & Wilson chemicals division resulting in net proceeds of approximately $700 million. The 1994 period includes the proceeds from the sale of 29 percent of the common stock of Case in June 1994. Higher proceeds from sale of businesses and assets in the first half of 1995 were partially offset by higher capital spending and the acquisitions of businesses. Expenditures for plant, property and equipment from continuing operations for the first six months of 1995 were $322 million compared with $208 million for the first six months of 1994. Increased expenditures for natural gas pipelines ($53 million), automotive parts ($49 million), shipbuilding ($20 million) and packaging ($24 million) were partially offset by the decline for farm and construction equipment ($33 million). Cash used for financing activities for the first six months of 1995 was $741 million compared with $214 million for the first six months of 1994. In the first six months of 1995, Tenneco purchased approximately $450 million of its common stock as a part of its $500 million common stock repurchase program. Since the repurchase program began in December 1994, 10.4 million shares have been acquired at a cost of $465 million. The remaining $35 million under the program will be used to purchase shares as they are issued from the SECT this year. In July 1995, Tenneco announced an additional repurchase program for up to three million shares of its common stock. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Capitalization totaled $7.30 billion at June 30, 1995, a decrease of $183 million from December 31, 1994. The resulting ratio of total debt to capitalization decreased from 55.0 percent to 54.0 percent. Tenneco's total debt to capitalization ratio was 52.1 percent including the market value of the SECT shares compared to 52.9 percent at December 31, 1994. The major changes in capitalization were: total debt decreased $171 million, shareowners' equity increased $11 million, minority interest decreased $5 million and preferred stock decreased $18 million due to a mandatory redemption. Based upon Tenneco's estimates of anticipated needs and circumstances of business operations, together with anticipated market conditions and including any payments associated with the settlement of the GSR issues, Tenneco expects adequate sources of funds to be available to finance its future operations through internally generated funds, the sale of assets, the use of credit facilities and the issuance of other long-term securities. OTHER MATTERS In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 which establishes new accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. Tenneco will adopt the new standard in the first quarter of 1996 but does not expect that the adoption will have a material effect on Tenneco's consolidated financial position or results of operations. On August 9, 1995, Tenneco sold in a public offering 16.1 million shares of common stock of Case Corporation at $35 per share. Net proceeds of approximately $540 million will be used for ongoing investment programs and Tenneco stock repurchases. The offering reduced Tenneco's ownership in Case from 44% to 21%. 21 PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. (1) Environmental Proceedings. Tennessee is a party in proceedings involving federal and state authorities regarding the past use by Tennessee of a lubricant containing polychlorinated biphenyls ("PCBs") in its starting air systems. Tennessee has executed a consent order with the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") governing the remediation of its compressor stations in Regions IV, V and VI. With respect to the stations in Regions II and III, EPA has advised Tennessee that it is deferring to the Pennsylvania and New York environmental agencies to specify the remediation requirements applicable to Tennessee. Tennessee has executed a consent order with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources dated August 1, 1995, governing remediation at the Pennsylvania stations; this consent order also obligates Tennessee to pay a civil penalty of $500,000. In addition, Tennessee has agreed to fund environmentally beneficial projects within the State of Pennsylvania over the next three years; those projects are expected to have a total cost to Tennessee of approximately $490,000. Tennessee will continue its negotiations with the New York Department of Environmental Conservation on remediation at the New York stations. Tenneco believes that the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of Tenneco Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. (2) Other Proceedings. On October 14, 1993, Tennessee was sued in the State District Court of Ector County, Texas, by ICA Energy, Inc. ("ICA") and TransTexas Gas Corporation ("TransTexas"). In that suit, ICA and TransTexas contended that Tennessee had an obligation to purchase gas production which TransTexas thereafter attempted to add unilaterally to the reserves originally dedicated to a 1979 gas contract. On two subsequent occasions, TransTexas gave Tennessee notice that it was adding new production and/or acreage "to the contract." An amendment to the pleadings seeks $1.5 billion from Tennessee for alleged damages caused by Tennessee's refusal to purchase gas produced from the TransTexas leases covering the new production and lands. Neither ICA nor TransTexas were original parties to that contract. However, they contend that any stranger acquiring a fractional interest in the original committed reserves thereby obtains a right to add to the contract unlimited volumes of gas production from locations in South Texas. Tennessee filed a motion for summary judgment, asserting that the Texas statutes of frauds precluded the plaintiffs from adding new production or acreage to the contract. On May 4, 1995, the trial court granted Tennessee's motion for summary judgment. The plaintiffs have filed a notice of appeal. (3) Potential Superfund Liability. At June 30, 1995, Tenneco has been designated as a potentially responsible party in 56 "Superfund" sites. With respect to its pro rata share of the remediation costs of certain sites, Tenneco is fully indemnified by third parties. With respect to certain other sites, Tenneco has sought to resolve its liability through payments to the other potentially responsible parties. For the remaining sites, Tenneco has estimated its share of the remediation costs to be between $10 million and $69 million or 0.4% to 2.5% of the total remediation costs for those sites and has provided reserves that it believes are adequate for such costs. Because the clean-up costs are estimates and are subject to revision as more information becomes available about the extent of remediation required, Tenneco's estimate of its share of remediation costs could change. Moreover, liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act is joint and several, meaning that Tenneco could be required to pay in excess of its pro rata share of remediation costs. Tenneco's understanding of the financial strength of other potentially responsible parties has been considered, where appropriate, in Tenneco's determination of its estimated liability. Tenneco does not believe that the costs associated with its current status as a potentially responsible party in the Superfund sites described above will be material to its consolidated financial position or results of operations. For additional information concerning environmental matters, see Note 4 in the "Notes to Financial Statements" of Tenneco Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries. 22 ITEM 4.

Shares of common stock issued to a related trust are not considered to be outstanding in the computation of average shares of common stock until the shares are utilized to fund the obligations for which the trust was established. At June 30, 1995, the SECT had utilized 6,150,243 of these shares. (b) Prior to conversion in December 1994, Series A preferred stock was converted into common stock under the Contingent Share method. The above computation includes 8,935,175 shares of Series A preferred stock which were converted into 17,342,763 shares of common stock. In December 1994, all of the outstanding shares of Series A preferred stock were converted into Tenneco Inc. common stock. The inclusion of Series A preferred stock in the computation of earnings per share was antidilutive for the first half of 1994. (c) These calculations are submitted in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission requirements although not required by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 because they result in dilution of less than 3%.
