[CHRYSLER LETTERHEAD]
May 3, 1995
Dear Chrysler Stockholder:
There has been a great deal of publicity recently about your Company and
its plans for the future. With our 1995 Annual Meeting approaching, I want to
assure you that your Board of Directors and the entire Chrysler management team
are committed to continuing to build value for all Chrysler stockholders. We are
committed to achieving value in a real way -- by following Chrysler's long-term
business strategy.
That strategy is succeeding. In 1994, Chrysler had its best retail sales
year in history, selling 2,451,735 vehicles in the United States and Canada, an
8% increase over 1993. In addition, for 1994 Chrysler reported record net
earnings of $3.7 billion and record total sales and revenues of $52.2 billion.
We also increased the dividend to stockholders by 167%.
We are working hard to build on our recent success. To do so, we must
maintain a strong financial foundation so that we can compete effectively in the
future. For this reason, Chrysler has, like its principal competitors, adopted a
financial strategy to enable it to continue investing in new products throughout
its business cycle.
Chrysler sets its cash target carefully with these goals in mind. To the
extent that the Company generates cash in excess of its target, and after taking
into account opportunities for investment in our core businesses and changes in
business conditions, Chrysler plans to use any excess to create additional
stockholder value, through share repurchases or increased dividends.
We believe we're on the right course to build value for Chrysler
stockholders. We were glad to hear recently that so many of you agree.
Sincerely,
[SIG.]
Robert J. Eaton
Chairman of the Board
Chief Executive Officer
