PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
Carlisle Companies Incorporated was incorporated in 1986 in Delaware as a
holding company for Carlisle Corporation, whose operations began in 1917, and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Unless the context of this report otherwise
requires, the words "Company" and "registrant" refer to Carlisle Companies
Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and any divisions or subsidiaries
they may have. The Company's diversified manufacturing operations are conducted
through its subsidiaries.
The Company manufactures and distributes a wide variety of products for
industry, primarily of rubber, plastics and metal content. Its products include
both components used by other companies in the manufacture of capital and
consumer goods and those for the aftermarket. The Company is the leading
producer, or among the leading producers, of many of its lines.
Sales of the Company's products are reported by distribution to the following
three industry segments: Construction Materials, Transportation Products and
General Industry. The principal products produced and services rendered in each
of the industry segments include:
Construction Materials--elastomeric membranes, metal roofing components,
adhesives and related products for roofing systems and water barrier
applications and outdoor recreation tiles;
Transportation Products--custom manufactured rubber and plastic products for the
automotive market, brake linings and pads for heavy duty trucks, trailers and
off-road vehicles, specialty friction products, brakes and actuation systems for
construction equipment, refrigerated containers and insulated wire products;
General Industry--molded plastic foodservice products, small pneumatic tires,
stamped and roll-formed wheels, medical monitoring devices and insulated wire
products.
The amount of total revenue contributed by the products or services in each
industry segment for each of the last three fiscal years is as follows (in
millions):
1994 1993 1992
---- ---- ----
Construction Materials $ 288.6 $ 247.6 $ 198.7
Transportation Products 200.2 177.0 172.9
General Industry 203.9 186.7 156.5
-------- -------- --------
Total $ 692.7 $ 611.3 $ 528.1
In each industry segment, the Company's products are generally distributed
either by Company-employed field sales personnel or manufacturers'
representatives. In a few instances distribution is through dealers and
independent distributors. Inasmuch as some of the Company's customers are other
manufacturers of relatively
2
significant size, marketing methods in certain operations are designed to
accommodate the requirements of a small group of high-volume producer-customers.
In each industry segment, satisfactory supplies of raw materials and adequate
sources of energy essential for operation of the Company's businesses have
generally been available to date. Uncertain economic conditions, however, could
cause shortages of some basic materials, particularly those which are petroleum
derivatives (plastic resins, synthetic rubber, etc.) and used in the
construction materials, transportation products and general industry segments.
The Company believes, though, that energy sources are secure and sufficient
quantities of raw materials can be obtained through normal sources to avoid
interruption of production in 1995.
Patents, trademarks and licenses held by the Company generally are not
considered significant to the successful conduct of most of the segments'
businesses.
In each industry segment, the Company is engaged in businesses, and its products
serve markets, which generally are highly competitive. Product lines serving
most markets tend to be price competitive; all lines compete not only on
pricing, but also on service and product performance. No industry segment is
dependent upon a single customer, or a few customers, the loss of any one or
more of which would have a material adverse effect on the segment.
Order Backlog, which believed to be firm, was $103.9 million at December 31,
1994 and $86.4 million at December 31, 1993. Improved market conditions and
market share gains were particularly evident in stronger backlog positions at
construction materials and general industry operations. Specialty tires and
wheels operations, which serve markets which are cyclically stronger in the
first half of the year, recorded backlog levels almost 40% higher than a year
ago. A similar increase when compared to a year ago was recorded by foodservice
plastics operations at the end of 1994.
Research and Development expenses increased to $11.9 million in 1994 compared to
$11.2 million in 1993 and $10.7 million in 1992. The additional research and
development expenses incurred as a result of the start-up of the company's
container manufacturing was one of the reasons for the increase in 1994.
Construction materials operations also incurred higher research expenses in
1994, as a number of product development projects were on-going throughout the
year.
The average number of persons employed by the Company during 1994 was 4,440.
The businesses of the Construction Materials and Transportation Products
industry segments are not seasonal in nature. Within the General Industry
segment, distribution of lawn and garden products generally reach peak sales
volume during the first two quarters of the year.
3
In 1994, the Company acquired the assets of Quaker Construction Products, Inc.
and certain of its affiliates and now operates a coatings and waterproofing
business with the assets under the name Carlisle Coatings & Waterproofing, Inc.
The Company also acquired by merger Sparta Brush Co., Inc., a manufacturer of
specialized brushes and cleaning tools.
In each industry segment, the Company's compliance with Federal, State and local
provisions which have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of
materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the
environment is not anticipated to have a material effect upon the capital
expenditures, earnings or the financial and competitive position of the Company
or its divisions and subsidiaries.

assets by industry segments for the last three fiscal years, the nature and
effect of the restatement of such information as a result of changes made in the
way the Company's products or services are grouped into industry segments and

related to a wire and cable business sold in early 1988, one is related to a
wire and cable operation relocated in 1989, and the other is related to a
braking systems assembling operation relocated in 1994. These facilities,
totaling approximately 390,000 sq. ft., are being held for sale. An additional
409,000 sq. ft. is leased by the Company, under various agreements, principally
for warehousing and distribution. All of the manufacturing and most of the
office and warehousing space is of masonry and steel construction and most are
equipped with automatic sprinkler systems. Approximately one-third of the owned
office, manufacturing and warehousing space has been constructed within the last

(3) In 1992, SFAS No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" was adopted
retroactively in 1990. As a result, an additional charge of $1.0 million,
($0.06) a share, was recorded against net earnings from continuing operations in
1990, and shareholders' equity and total assets were restated in 1991 and 1990.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Record sales and record earnings were achieved by Carlisle Companies
Incorporated in 1994 as market conditions improved, costs continued to be
controlled and gains were made in market share. Sales in 1994 were $692.7
million, an increase of 13% over 1993's sales of $611.3 million. Net earnings
increased to $35.6 million, a 25% improvement over 1993's earnings of $28.4
million. Each of the Company's three operating segments recorded excellent
improvements over the strong operating results reported a year ago. While raw
material cost increases and operational start-up costs affected gross margins
during 1994, the Company was successful in achieving a ratio of selling and
administrative expenses to sales of 14.9%, surpassing the Company's objective of
15% and last year's ratio of 16.1%.
During 1994, the Company completed two acquisitions, adding to its construction
materials and general industry segments. In October 1994, the Company acquired
the coatings and waterproofing business of Quaker Construction Products, Inc.
This acquisition increased the Company's presence in the waterproofing segment
of the commercial construction industry and allowed the Company to solidify a
position as a full service supplier to the roofing industry. On December 31,
1994, the Company completed the acquisition of Sparta Brush Company, a leading
manufacturer of specialized brushes and cleaning tools. Sparta is a leading
supplier to the foodservice, food and dairy processing, marine and janitorial
markets and now operates as a unit of the Company's foodservice plastics
operations. The two acquisitions should generate approximately $20.0 million in
sales in 1995.
Two divestitures were also completed during 1994 as the Company sold its DSI and
NETstor operations to third parties. DSI, which sells connectivity and
migrating systems, and NETstor, which develops and sells storage management
software, had total sales while part of company operations of $6.6 million in
1994 and $9.9 million in 1993 and were part of the general industry segment.
8
Sales in 1994 of $692.7 million were $81.4 million higher than 1993's sales of
$611.3 million, a 13% increase. Sales in 1992 were $528.1 million. A summary
of sales by operating segment is presented below.
1994 1993 1992
------ ------ ------
Construction Materials $288.6 $247.6 $198.7
Transportation Products $200.2 $177.0 $172.9
General Industry $203.9 $186.7 $156.5
------ ------ ------
Total $692.7 $611.3 $528.1
Construction Materials segment sales increased 17% in 1994 to $288.6 million
compared to $247.6 million in 1993. Domestic non-residential roofing sales
accounted for a majority of the increase as over 25% more square feet of roofing
membrane was shipped in 1994 versus 1993. Market share gains were achieved from
increased participation in the private label market and through strong marketing
of the Company's "Sure-Seal[REGISTRATION MARK]" roofing products. Metal
roofing, coatings and waterproofing, and international operations also
participated in the overall improved construction market in 1994, adding to the
higher segment sales compared to the prior year.
Transportation Products segment sales totalled $200.2 million in 1994, a 13%
increase over 1993. The Company's custom-molded and extruded plastics and
rubber parts operations participated in the strong domestic automotive markets
in 1994 while expanding its production capabilities. At the beginning of 1994
operation of the Company's Lake City, Pennsylvania plant was transferred from
the foodservice plastics operations to this segment. The strong market, new
products and additional capacity combined for an increase of over 25% in sales
from these plastic and rubber operations in 1994 versus 1993. Heavy duty
friction sales to truck and trailer manufacturers continued to be strong in
1994, as truck and trailer build levels remained high throughout the year.
Aftermarket friction sales levels were somewhat stagnant in 1994 due to very
competitive pricing. New products in both the industrial friction and braking
systems operations were successfully marketed during 1994, increasing sales
levels from these operations. Aircraft wire product sales declined in 1994 over
$2.0 million compared to a year ago. Fewer purchases of aircraft by commercial
airlines and cuts in defense spending caused a recession in both the commercial
and military aircraft industry, impacting 1994 sales. The Company's container
manufacturing operation recorded its initial sales toward the end of 1994,
contributing almost $0.5 million in sales for the year.
General Industry segment sales increased $17.2 million to $203.9 million in 1994
compared to 1993, a 9% improvement. The segment sales comparisons are
unfavorably impacted when comparing 1994 to 1993 by approximately $7.7 million
due to the divestitures of DSI and NETstor and the transfer of the Lake City,
Pennsylvania plant in 1994. Another record performance by the Company's
specialty
9
tires and wheels operations in 1994 resulted in an increase in sales of $19.5
million compared to its previous record of a year ago. Strong market share
gains and the continued strength in demand for lawn and garden, trailer and golf
car equipment combined for the increased tires and wheels revenues. Replacement
sales were also up in 1994, though at a much lower level than sales to the
original equipment market, as production capabilities were prioritized to meet
the original equipment demand. Foodservice plastics operations also produced a
very successful year in 1994. Expanded foodservice plastics product offerings
combined with aggressive marketing programs and the operation's strong
distribution network to improve domestic sales in 1994. International sales
also increased in 1994 in the first full year of operating a separate
distribution facility in Europe. Overall, foodservice plastics operations
increased sales by over 9% in 1994 versus comparable operations in 1993. High
speed data wire and cable sales improved slightly in 1994, but a strong finish
to the year and a good backlog should bring even better performance in 1995.
Net Earnings increased 25% to a record $35.6 million, $2.30 a share, in 1994.
This compares to total net earnings of $28.4 million, $1.83 a share, in 1993 and
$24.7 million, or $1.61 a share, in 1992. Strong operating performances by each
of the Company's major operations accounts for record earnings in 1994, despite
the absorption of $2.7 million of initial year costs of the Company's container
manufacturing operation.
A summary of after-tax results for the last three years is presented below.

Construction Materials segment earnings in 1994 increased a strong 38% over
1993's results. The segment's $41 million increase in sales drove earnings
higher, as margins improved slightly and operating expenses were well
controlled. Margins were unfavorably impacted by increased sales of lower
margin items and raw material cost increases which were unable to be passed
along to customers. These negative items were offset by increased absorption of
expenses achieved from the higher production levels and cost reduction programs
designed to improve plant efficiencies. Selling and administrative expenses in
1994 as a ratio to sales dropped 9% when compared to 1993, as streamlined
administrative organizations handled the volume increases throughout the year.
Transportation Products segment earnings improved 16% in 1994, after flat
earnings comparisons between 1993 and 1992. The segment's 1994 pre-tax earnings
include start-up costs associated with the Company's container manufacturing
operation of $2.7 million. The other operations in the segment produced strong
earnings increases on the strength of 1994's revenue increases. Custom plastics
and rubber operations achieved better margins in 1994, halting the decline
caused by pricing actions in the automotive market segment. Improved
efficiencies, increased expense absorption and a more profitable product mix
contributed to a 5% margin rate improvement in 1994. Friction and braking
systems operations effectively controlled costs and expenses as their sales
volumes increased during 1994. Selling and administrative expenses as a ratio
to sales improved 10% for these operations in 1994. The friction operation's
joint venture in Mexico was not profitable in 1994 and its Brazilian operation
was shut down during the year, negatively impacting earnings of the segment by
over $1.5 million on a pre-tax basis in 1994. Aircraft wire operations, despite
a $2.2 million reduction in sales, maintained consistent profitability between
1994 and 1993.
General Industry segment earnings increased 13% in 1994 versus 1993. Specialty
tires and wheels operations achieved another record earnings improvement in 1994
despite declining margins. Raw material cost increases, pricing pressure and
start-up costs associated with a new manufacturing site in China contributed to
lower margin rates. Lower selling and administration expenses on a $19.5
million increase in sales in 1994, however, created an earnings improvement of
over 25% compared to 1993. Foodservice plastics operations were able to improve
margins in 1994 on higher production volumes while absorbing higher material
costs. Operating expense ratios were improved contributing to overall earnings
improvement from foodservice plastics operations of over 20% in 1994.
Offsetting the gains made by the two major operations of this segment in 1994
were expenses and reduced earnings associated with the divested operations of
NETstor and DSI, and Vistatech's ceramic tape operation.
Gross Margins as a percent of sales were 25.5% in 1994 compared to 25.9% in 1993
and 26.3% in 1992. Manufacturing start-up costs and under-absorbed overhead at
the Company's container manufacturing and ceramic tape operations, as well as
the divestiture of two high margin operations resulted in the decline in margins
in 1994. All major operations within the construction materials and
11
transportation products segments, as well as foodservice plastics operations,
improved gross margin ratios in 1994.
Across most operations, raw material costs rose in 1994, but little success was
achieved in passing these increased costs through to the customers. Higher
production volumes, however, allowed manufacturing expenses to be more
effectively absorbed resulting in improved gross margins at most operations in
1994.
Selling and Administrative expenses declined as a percent of sales to 14.9% in
1994, from 16.1% in 1993 and 16.4% in 1992. The strong performance in
controlling expenses was evident in the fact that selling and administrative
expenses rose just $4.5 million to support the 1994 sales increase of $81.4
million. The best improvement in expense control was achieved by construction
materials operations, as programs to reduce administrative expenses and improve
productivity were effectively in place in 1994. General industry operations
also contributed to the lower expense ratios as both specialty tires and wheels
and foodservice plastics operations maintained strong cost controls. Friction
and braking systems operations successfully reduced selling expenses while
increasing sales over 7% in 1994.
Research and Development expenses increased to $11.9 million in 1994 compared to
$11.2 million in 1993 and $10.7 million in 1992. The additional research and
development expenses incurred as a result of the start-up of the Company's
container manufacturing was one of the reasons for the increase in 1994.
Construction materials operations also incurred higher research expenses in
1994, as a number of product development projects were on-going throughout the
year.
Interest Expense was $4.6 million in 1994, $4.3 million in 1993 and $5.2 million
in 1992. In the second half of 1994, the Company secured $8.0 million of low-
rate, industrial development bonds to finance equipment purchases for its
container manufacturing operations. This action, along with higher interest
rates in the latter half of 1994, contributed to the higher interest expense in
1994. In 1993, the Company paid down $12.0 million of its 8.09% senior notes
and refinanced its $8.5 million revenue bond issue to an adjustable rate
instrument, causing the interest expense reduction between 1993 and 1992.
Income Taxes were computed for financial statement purposes at 39.5% in 1994,
the same rate used in 1993, compared to the 39.0% rate used in 1992. The
increase in the corporate federal tax rate legislated in 1993 is reflected in
the 1994 and 1993 income tax rate for the Company. An analysis of income taxes
for each year is presented in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Order Backlog was $103.9 million at December 31, 1994 and $86.4 million at
December 31, 1993. Improved market conditions and market share gains were
particularly evident in stronger backlog positions at construction materials and
general industry operations. Specialty tires and wheels operations, which serve
markets which are cyclically stronger in the first half of the year, recorded
backlog levels almost 40% higher than a year ago. A
12
similar increase when compared to a year ago was recorded by foodservice
plastics operations at the end of 1994.
Accounts Receivable were $99.4 million at year end 1994 compared to $91.2
million at the end of 1993. Higher fourth quarter sales revenue at each of the
Company's major operations were the primary factors reflected in the higher
receivables balance. The acquisitions made in 1994 account for approximately
$2.8 million of the increase at year end. Receivables continue to be well
managed across the Company as throughout the year the average days accounts
receivable remained outstanding declined to 60 days from 61 days in the prior
year.
Inventories valued primarily by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method were $74.9
million at December 31, 1994 compared to $65.0 million at December 31, 1993.
The $9.9 million increase in year-end inventories is primarily attributable to
construction materials and general industry operations. Construction materials
inventories increased $3.8 million on a year-to-year basis reflecting higher
demand and backlog levels at year end, as well as $2.0 million due to 1994's
acquisition. Foodservice plastics operations account for $4.8 million of the
Company's increased inventory levels at year end, again reflecting strong
demand and backlog and also the operation's efforts to increase its ability to
more effectively fill customer's orders. Specialized tires and wheels
operations also recorded higher inventory levels at the end of 1994 in
anticipation of another strong performance in the early stages of 1995.
Working Capital was $164.7 million at December 31, 1994 and $144.5 million at
December 31, 1993. Cash balances have increased $19.2 million at year end 1994
versus 1993 as the result of strong operating performances during the year.
Increased end of year sales and production activity is reflected in both
receivables and inventories balances, as well as current liability accounts at
December 31, 1994.
Capital Expenditures totalled $31.1 million in 1994 and $28.5 million in 1993.
The major capital project for the Company in 1994 was the purchase of machinery
and equipment for its container manufacturing facility, which began operations
toward the end of 1994. Other significant projects in 1994 included the
purchase of additional molds and assets to establish specialty tires and wheels
operations in China, expansion of molding production capabilities at custom
plastics and rubber operations and the purchase of presses and molds to increase
capacity and product availability for foodservice plastics operations. In 1993,
the major components of capital spending were projects to provide advanced
technology into construction materials operations, increase capacity at
specialty tires and wheels operations and expand automotive rubber and plastics
operations.
Cash Flows provided by operating activities were $72.6 million in 1994 compared
to $32.8 million in 1993. Strong earnings growth and aggressive management of
receivables and payables contributed to the significant increase in operating
cash in 1994. Investing activities, primarily Company acquisitions and capital
13
expenditures, totalled $38.8 million in 1994 and $49.4 million in 1993. In
1994, the Company secured an additional $8.0 million in long-term financing,
purchased $10.9 million of treasury stock and paid out $11.6 million in
dividends. Of the treasury stock purchased, $9.9 million was re-issued for the
acquisition of Sparta Brush Company. Comparably in 1993, the Company paid down
$12.0 million in long-term debt and paid out $10.7 million in dividends.
Overall, cash available for operations increased to $71.0 million at the end of
1994 compared to $51.8 million at the end of 1993.
The Company's primary liquidity and capital sources are its operations, bank
lines of credit and long-term borrowings. The Company continues to have
substantial borrowing capacity and financial flexibility.
The Company recognizes the importance of its responsibilities toward matters of
environmental concern. Programs are in place to monitor and test facilities and
surrounding environments, as well as to recycle materials where practical. The
Company has not incurred any material charges relating to environmental matters
in 1994 or prior years, and none are anticipated in the foreseeable future.
The 1995 outlook is good. In all major markets the Company's competitive
position is sound. As 1994 has shown, the Company emerged from the recession
well positioned. Continuation of the attention to fundamental practices of cost
control, quality improvement, product development, and customer service, when
combined with a variety of attractive market opportunities, will result in a
year of solid performance.
Non-residential roofing markets, long dominated by repair and replacement
demand, will see a continuation of the strengthened new construction roofing
market following the record performance in 1994.
In the transportation markets, interest rate increases may temper automobile
demand, but success in broadening the Company's base of customers for custom
molded rubber and plastics products will lead to another year of improved
performance. Following a period of record demand by original equipment
customers of friction products, a resurgence is expected in demand for more
profitable aftermarket products. A good domestic market outlook combined with
improving international markets will provide the opportunity for strong
performance. A steady improvement in the high performance wire and cable
business is expected as gains in market share continue, derived from superior
product advantages.
In 1994, the Company began to build a strong base of products and services to
serve the international markets for containerized shipment of perishable cargo,
primarily food. The initial market acceptance of the Company's specialized
leasing joint venture has been very encouraging. A new container manufacturing
facility shipped its first production units in November 1994. International
container demand is strong and the long term outlook is for above average
growth.
14
The Company's leading position in specialty tires and wheels is expected to
result in another record year supported by the new low cost production capacity
added in China during 1994. Foodservice plastics has been a targeted growth
opportunity for Carlisle and this will continue. Record 1994 performance will
be enhanced in 1995 with the December 1994 acquisition of Sparta Brush Company,
the leading supplier of brushes to the commercial foodservice market.
Overall, the outlook for 1995 and beyond is good. The order backlog is strong,
financial resources are secure. A tapering down of economic activity in
domestic markets should not prevent the Company from producing improved results.
The variety of markets served and growing international activities will sustain
the Company's growth momentum.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its subsidiaries. Investments in affiliates where the Company does not have
majority control, none of which are significant, are accounted for on the equity
method. All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been
eliminated.
The Company recognizes revenues from product sales upon shipment to the
customer.
The Company generally considers securities with a remaining maturity of three
months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents
are stated at cost, which approximates market value.
Inventories are valued at lower of cost or market. Cost for inventories is
determined for a majority of the Company's inventories by the last-in, first-out
(LIFO) method with the remainder determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO)
method.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Costs assigned to property,
plant and equipment of acquired companies are based on estimated fair value at
the date of acquisition. Depreciation is principally computed on the straight
line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Asset lives are 20 to
40 years for buildings, 5 to 15 years for machinery and equipment and 3 to 10
years for leasehold improvements.
Patents and other intangibles, obtained through acquisitions, are recorded at
cost (net of accumulated amortization of $7.8 million and $5.4 million at
December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively) and amortized over their remaining
lives averaging six to eight years. Also included is the excess of acquisition
cost over the value of specifically identifiable assets acquired, $8.2 million
and $2.3 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, and is being
amortized over various periods not exceeding 30 years. Amortization expense is
recorded on the straight-line method.
The Company maintains product warranties reserves to provide for future claims.
Extended periods of coverage are available on certain products for a fee.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences of the differences between financial statement carrying amounts of
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. These balances are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which such temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred
tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
19
Net earnings per share of common stock are based on the weighted average number
of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period,
assuming the exercise of stock options.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' information to conform
to 1994 presentation.

$67,498 $59,548
At December 31, 1994, the fair value of each of the above debt instruments and
two interest rate swaps with a $30 million aggregate notional amount and a 21-
month remaining term, were not materially different from their carrying amount.
The weighted average interest rates on the revenue bonds for 1994 and 1993 were
3.1% and 3.2%, respectively.
The debt facilities contain various restrictive covenants and limitations, all
of which were complied with in 1994 and 1993.
Cash payments for interest were $4.4 million in 1994, $4.9 million in 1993, and
$3.7 million in 1992.
The Company had $5.7 million and $10.1 million of outstanding letters of credit
issued against credit lines at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
The aggregate amount of long-term debt maturing in each of the five years
subsequent to December 31, 1994 is approximately $0.1 million a year through
1997 and $9.7 million in 1998 and 1999.
ACQUISITIONS
Acquisitions completed by the Company in the last three years include: 1994-
Sparta Brush Company, a manufacturer of specialized brushes and cleaning tools,
and the coatings and waterproofing business of Quaker Construction Products,
Inc; 1993-ECI Building Components, Inc., a metal roofing manufacturer and
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company's Roofing System Division, a distributor and
seller of non-residential roofing systems. These acquisitions were completed for
cash, assumption of debt, and issuance of stock aggregating approximately $49.7
million and have been accounted for as purchases. The Sparta Brush Company
acquisition included the issuance of treasury shares amounting to $9.9 million
in 1994.
21
Results of operations, which have been included in the consolidated financial
statements since their respective acquisition dates, did not have a material
effect on consolidated operating results of the Company in the years of
acquisition.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In September 1991, the Company announced its decision to sell its businesses
engaged in the production, sale and maintenance of computer tape products and
systems integration hardware.
In 1992, the Company sold its quarter-inch tape business, as well as its half-
inch tape business, to substantially eliminate the operations which were
classified as discontinued operations. The Company recognized earnings in 1992
from discontinued operations of $0.9 million, $0.5 million after-tax, as it
adjusted its estimates due to better than anticipated performance. At December
31, 1993, all discontinued businesses had been sold.
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
On April 20, 1993, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a two-for-one
stock split which was issued on June 1, 1993, to shareholders of record on May
11, 1993. The split resulted in the issuance of 9,832,656 new shares of common
stock and the reissuance of 2,175,479 shares of common stock held in treasury.
All references in the financial statements to average number of shares
outstanding and related prices, per share amounts, and stock option plan data
have been restated to reflect the split.
The Company has a Stockholders' Rights Plan which is designed to protect
shareholder investment values. A dividend distribution of one Preferred Stock
Purchase Right for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock was
declared, payable to shareholders of record on March 3, 1989. The rights will
become exercisable under certain circumstances, including the acquisition of 25%
of the Company's common stock, or 40% of the voting power, in which case all
rights holders except the acquiror may purchase the Company's common stock at a
50% discount. If the Company is acquired in a merger or other business
combination, and the rights have not been redeemed, rights holders may purchase
the acquiror's shares at a 50% discount.
Common shareholders of record May 30, 1986 are entitled to five votes per share.
Common stock acquired subsequent to that date entitles the holder to one vote
per share until held four years, after which time the holder is entitled to five
votes.
EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS & INCENTIVE PLAN
The Company maintains an Executive Incentive Program for executives and certain
other employees of the Company and its operating divisions and subsidiaries.
The Program contains a plan, for those who are eligible, to receive cash bonuses
and/or shares of restricted stock. The Program also has a stock option plan
available to certain employees who are not eligible to receive cash or
restricted stock awards.
22
In 1994, 11,333 shares of restricted stock were issued and 553 shares were
surrendered under the terms of the Program. At December 31, 1994 an additional
558,438 shares of the Company's common stock was available for issuance as
restricted stock.
The activity under the stock option plan is as follows:

The projected benefit obligation was determined using an assumed discount rate
of 8.25% in 1994 and 7.75% in 1993. The assumed rate of compensation increase
was 4.5% in 1994 and 1993. The expected rate of return on plan assets was 8.75%
in 1994, 1993 and 1992.
The Company also has a limited number of unfunded post-retirement benefit
programs. In the first quarter of 1993, the Company adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 106, "Employers
Accounting for Post-Retirement Benefits Other Than Pensions". The Company
elected to record the previously unrecognized obligations arising from the
adoption of SFAS No. 106 prospectively as a component of future years expense,
amortized over a 20 year period. The SFAS No. 106 expense for the Company,
inclusive of the components of service costs, interest costs and the
amortization of the unrecognized transition obligation, was approximately $0.6
million, $0.4 million after tax during 1994 and 1993. This expense was not
materially different than the Company's post-retirement benefits expense in
1992. The projected benefit obligation related to these plans is not material.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors
Carlisle Companies Incorporated:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Carlisle
Companies Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for
the year then ended. These financial statements and the supplementary notes
referred to below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
supplementary notes based on our audit. The consolidated financial statements
of Carlisle Companies Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and
1992 were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 2, 1994
expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Carlisle Companies Incorporated
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole. The supplementary notes to the consolidated
financial statements listed in Item 14 are presented for purposes of complying
with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the
basic financial statements. These supplementary notes have been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements
and, in our opinion, fairly state in all material respects the financial data
required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.
