We, our customers, and the government are making an exhaustive investigation of the incident. We believe that others will conclude, as we have, that the B & W-supplied equipment operated as designed, except for a purchased pressure relief valve which did not re-seat. The system was designed to enable the operator to take corrective action for this condition. It is probable that no significant core damage would have occurred if the automatically initiated emergency coolant flow had not been prematurely stopped by an operator. In fact, the nuclear system performed exceptionally well under the severe conditions imposed upon it. Human reactions changed a minor equipment failure into a major incident.

All would require engineering, fabrication, and installation capabilities similar to ones McDermott now lias. Geothermal energy, for example, which is heat from beneath the earth's surface, might involve only slight modification to existing platform designs. An OTEC plant. The Marine Pipeline Division set a new record when Lay Barge 29 installed a 12-inch pipeline in more than 1.000 feet of water in the Gulf of Mexico. on the other hand, would be even larger than the platforms for 1.000 feet of water that we have already built. McDermott is working on conceptual studies for such a plant, but as yet OTEC remains an undeveloped technology. We believe that McDermott's expertise, equipment, and facilities will give us a natural advantage in helping to develop new energy resources in a marine environment. Mexico--A recent study indicates that proven reserves off the east coast of Mexico are more than 20 billion barrels. Thus, earlier in the year, McDermott formed a joint-venrure company, Lan-Dermott. with a major supplier of diverse equipment to the xMexican oil industry. Lan-Dermott will design, manufacture, fabricate, assemble, repair, and market offshore oil and gas platforms, packaged offshore drilling rigs, production modules, and related products. The government of Mexico plans to develop its discoveries at a deliberate pace. North Sea -- Activity has been slowing for several years, in part because policies by governments ofNorth Sea countries have created uncertainty about the economics of production. We are hopeful that the new Conservative government in the United Kingdom will provide a better climate for oil and gas development. Also, at the sixth round of bidding on North Sea tracts, more than 100 companies submitted 55 applications covering all 46 blocks, indicating that interest in the area is high. This should mean more work for the Company. t present, the yard at A Ardersier, Scotland, has L three projects in progress. The largest is the fabrication and Jtejidout ofthe 25,000-ton jacketfor fne Murchison field -- so far the largest jacket ever assembled in one piece.

In Brazil, Petrobras recently announced the discovery of two more offshore fields, bringing the total to eight. We installed several platforms this year, and pipeline work should be available beginning in the 1981 or 1982 season. In Venezuela, we recently completed a dual 3S-inch pipeline from the mainland to Margarita Island. The 23-mile-long line will be used to supply the island with fresh water. \ Babcock & Wilcox Operating Unit 13 GEORGE G. 2IPF Vice Chairman of the Board. President and Chief Operating Officer, Babcock & Wilcox Operating Unit Power Generation Systems and Equipment-- About three-fourths of the B & W Operating Unit's business is from the sale of power generation systems and equipment, with the electric utility* industry alone providing about one-half of the business.

During the year the Common Share dividend rate was ; ncreased 11 percent over the $0.90 per share paid in fiscal 19"8. On lunc 11. 19"9. the Board of Directors voted to increase the regular quarterly Common Stock cash dividend 20 percent to $0.30 per share from $0.25 per share. 6 19"9 VERSUS 1978 Revenue* for the twelve months ended March 31. 1979. increased by >1.850.853.000 over those of the twelve months ended March 31. 1978. This increase is attributable to the revenues of The Babcock & Wilcox Company's ( B&W) operations (power generation svsterns and equipment, engineered materials and other operations) in the' amount of S2.047,025,000 which are hill v consolidated for the first time in the in the marine and onshore construction operations to be lower during fiscal year 1980 chan in fiscal year 19"9 and. as a result, such operations may not be profitable. For the rwelve months ended March 31. 19T9. operating income from the marine and onshore construction operations was S34,589,000. as compared to S 197,768.000 for the twelve months ended March 31, 1978, equity in an unconsolidatcdaffiliated company which began operations early in fiscal 19~S. Decrease in other income is due mainly to losses in translation of foreign currency for the twelve months ended March 31. 19~9. versus gains in translation of foreign currencv for the twelve months ended March 31. 1978. The remaining differences were attributable to a number of other factors twelve months ended March 31, 19' offset bv marine and onshore and operating income from the power including workmen's compensation generation systems and equipment, retrospective adjustments, bad debt construction operations' revenues.' which decreased by $196,172,000, largely as a result of a decrease in revenues from foreign operations of S170.286.000. engineered materials and other operations was $147,461,000. Interest income for the twelve months ended March 31, 1979, increased by 520.702.000 over that of the twleve expense, royalties, and minority interest. The provision for income taxes for the twelve months ended March 31 19-9. increased by $2".4"5.000 over that provided for the twelve months ended Costs and expenses for the twelve months ended March 31,1979, increased by Sl.866,57l,000 over those of the twelve months ended March 31, 1978! Included in this increase were costs and expenses of $48,494,000 in connection with the relocation of certain operations of one of the Company's foreign areas and months ended March 31, 1978. This increase results from the consolidation of interest income of the power generation systems and equipment, engineered materials and other operations along with changes relating to the interest bearing investments of the marine and onshore construction operations, as well as the March 31. I9~8. This increase is primarily due to the fact that a greater percentage of consolidated earnings were from domestic rather than foreign sources, and that certain foreign losses resulted in no tax benefits, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 54% for fiscal 1979 compared to 54% for fiscal 1978. warranty and other related design and fabrication problems experienced in certain nuclear contracts. Of the total increase, SI,899,564,000 reflects the . costs and expenses of the power generation systems and equipment, engineered materials and other operations, offset by costs and expenses of the marine and onshore construction operations which decreased by $32,993,000. Costs and expenses of the power generation systems and equipment, engineered materials and other operations were 93% ofrelated revenues for the twelve months ended March 31, 1979- Costs and expenses of the marine and onshore construction operations were 97% of related revenues for the twelve months ended March 31,1979, as compared to 85% for the twelve months ended March 31, 1978, producing lower profit margins in both the North American and foreign areas of the marine and onshore construction operations. The continuation of the slowdown in worldwide hydrocarbon development in offshore areas has resulted in lowerprofit margins reflecting intense competition and a lower rate of utilization of the Company's equipment in substantially all of the Company's markets. The Company expects the rates ofequipment utilization interest rates thereon prevailing in the respective periods. Interest expense for the twelve months ended March 31, 1979, increased 525.336.000 over that of the twelve months ended March 31, 1978. Approximatelyone-halfof this increase is attributable to the consolidation of interest expense on debt carried by the power generation systems and equipment, engineered materials and other operations. The remaining increase is attributable to the additional borrowings related to the investment in B & V, new debt incurred during the current year and fluctuations in the revolving credit and term loan agreement, along with changes in the interest rates prevailing in the respective periods. Equity in earnings of affiliated companies for the twelve months ended March 31, 1979 decreased $15,240,000 from that of the twelve months ended March 31, 1978. For the twelve months ended March 31, 1978, the Company reported its share of its equity in the net income of B & W in the amount of $20,364,000. The principal increase in the current twelve months' period, other than the equity income of the power generation systems and equipment, engineered materials and industrial products operations, was that of the 1978 VERSUS 1977 Revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1978, increased $69,870,000 as compared to the fiscal year ended March 31,1977. This increase marks the. culmination offive years of extraordinary growth of worldwide hydrocarbon' development in offshore areas, peaking in the third quarter of fiscal year 1978. Domestic revenues increased to an all-time high, while foreign revenues decreased. Costs and expenses for the fiscal year ended March 31. 1978 were 83% of revenues as compared to 79% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1977. This increase was attributable to lower utilization of Company-operated equipment, particularly in the North Sea, South East Asia and \Test Africa areas, resulting from a slowdown in offshore activity and increased competition in foreign markets. Interest expense increased $ 10,730,000 principally as a result erfthe additional borrowings related to the investment in B & The increase in equity in wming: of affiliated companies in the fiscal year 1978 is principally attributable to the Company's share of the earnings of B & W. The Company increased its . 'S : ?- :i\oinient to approximately 49% of : o>. w in September 19"*'. and its share : B V"s earnings has been accounted . ir on the equity method through March 51. 19~8. at which time the . .ompanv acquired the remaining merest in B & \V. The Company ncluded its equity in the earnings of i & \v as other income in the amount J 520.364,000. Additional increases in other income were attributable to an increase in interest income of 512.300.000. consistent with changes in interest ->eanng investments as well`as interest rates thereon, prevailing in the respective periods; further increases were attributable to a net gain on foreign currency translation of Si2.400.000 as well as workmen's compensation premium adjustments, gains and losses on disposal of assets, royalty income, bad debt recoveries and inventory adjustments. Domestic operations accounted for a greater proportion of income before provision for income taxes during fiscal year 1978 than was the case in the prior fiscal year. United States investment tax credits for fiscal year 1978 were less than those for the .prior fiscal year. Also, a .greater proportion of income before taxes attributable to foreign operations was generated in geopolitical areas subject to higher tax fates. Additionally, an income tax holiday applicable in fiscal year 197" was not applicable in the fiscal year 1978. These combined factors increased the effective income tax rate for the fiscal yeaT ended March 31, 1978, to 34% as compared to 27% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1977. producing provisions for income taxes of 580,993,000 and 570,116,000, respectively. Net income was increased for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1977 by an extraordinary item of 5132,000 resulting from utilization of foreign tax benefits from an operating loss carryforward. There-were no extraordinary' items in fiscal year 1978. MARKET PRICE OF VOTING STOCK ' The Voting Stock of the Company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (symbols MDE, MDEa, MDEb).

V.O ! s' 7 ;;; o ; NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and aLl significant subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Investments in affiliated (20% to 50% owned) companies arc accounted for on the equity method. Certain amounts previously reported in the consolidated financial statements at March 31. 19"$ have been reclassified to conform with the presentation at March 31. 1979. Contracts and Revenue Recognition Marine and onshore construction contract revenues are generally recognized as contractual obligations arc completed. Revenues are recognized on certain marine contracts containing identifiable separate projects when such projects are completed and accepted by the customer. Revenues from time or day-rate basis marine contracts are recognized as earned. General and administrative costs are included in marine and onshore contract costs. Current provisions are made for all known or anticipated losses on marine and onshore construction contracts which have not been completed. Power generation systems and equipment contract revenues and related costs are principally recognized on a percentage of completion method for individual contracts or components thereofbased upon work performed or the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs, as applicable to the product or activity involved. Revenues so recorded are includedin unbilled revenues until invoiced to customers under the terms ofthe contracts. Contract price and cost estimates are reviewed periodically as the work progresses and adjustments proportionate to the percentage of completion are reflected in income in the period when such estimates are revised. The Company is usually entitled to financial settlements relative to the individual circumstances of deferrals or cancellations ofpower generation systems and equipment contracts. The Company does not recognize such settlements or claims for additional compensation until final settlement is reached. Foreign Currency Translation The accounts of foreign subsidiaries maintained in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars based on current exchange rates at the end of the fiscal year for assets and liabilities except for inventories, prepaid expenses, property, plant and equipment, and.stockholders' equity for which historical exchange rates are used. Average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal years are used for revenues and expenses other than depreciation and prepaid expenses. Exchange gains and losses are recognized in the year of occurrence. Included in other income are losses of $4,739,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1979, and gains of $3,460,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1978. Depreciation, Maintenance and Repairs Property, plant and equipment is depredated by the straight-line method, using estimated useful lives of 8 to 40 years for buildings and 2 to 20 years for machinery and equipment. Maintenance, repairs and renewals which do not materially prolong the useful life ofan asset are expensed as incurred except for drydocking costs for the Company's marine fleet. Under the accounting method for accrual of drydocking costs, estimated costs are provided and charged to operations currently. Amortization of Excess of Cost Over Fair Value of Net Assets of Purchased Businesses The excess of the Company's investment in B&W over the fair value of net assets acquired is being amortized on a straight-line basis over forty* years. Excess cost arising from business combinations prior to 19"1 is not being amortized because, in the opinion of management, there has been no diminution in value. Warranty Expense The Company* provides for estimated future warranty expense which may* be required to satisfy contractual requirements, primarily ofthe power generation systems and equipment segment. Such provision isaccrued relative to revenue recognition on the respective contracts. 'y Research and Development The cost of research and development which is not performed on specific contracts is charged to operations as incurred. Such expense was $28,464,000 in fiscal 1979. Earnings Per Share Primary earnings per common share are computed after preferred dividend requirements and are based on the weighted average number ofcommon and common equivalent shares (stock options) outstanding during the year. Fully diluted earnings per common share assume the conversion ofthe convertible subordinated debentures and convertible preferred stock. NOTE.2 -- ACQUISITION OF THE BABCOCK & WILCOX COMPANY In'September 1977, the Company acquired approximately 4,800,000 common shares of B & W for S62.50per share pursuant to a tender offer.
