Much of our total communication effort for the year was tailored to developing an awareness of that change throughout the business and financial community. During 1971, earnings were lower than 1970 both before and after an extraordinary charge while sales increased slightly for the year. Sales by N L Industries for the year 1971 were $925,008,000, compared to 1970 sales of $915,877,000. Income in 1971 before an extraordinary charge was $22,757,000, or 95 cents per share, compared to $35,618,000, or $1.50 per share in 1970. Net income after the extraordinary charge of $19,500,000, equal to 81 cents per share, was $3,257,000, or 14 cents per share for 1971. The extraordinary charge of $19,500,000 against 1971 income, after applicable income tax benefits, resulted from the abandonment of facilities that manufactured certain types of titanium pigments in the United States and Canada. These facilities had become unprofitable because of high operating costs for the pigment grades manufactured. The decrease in earnings before the extraordinary charge was caused in large part by declining margins in titanium pigment operations. This industry suffered from overcapacity and low market prices throughout the year 1971. The company's metal and oxide operations were affected by lower prices of base metals during the year. Earnings for the year were also depressed by the increased losses of Titanium Metals Corporation of America, a 50% owned company, as a result of reductions and stretch out of military and commercial aircraft procurement and a three month strike. Effective in 1971, the company includes in its consolidation, on an equity basis, all significant partially owned companies, in accordance with current trends in accounting practice. For the year 1971 this had the effect of reducing per share income by 20 cents. The operating losses of Titanium Metals Corporation of America included therein amounted to 21 cents per share. Earnings for 1970 have been restated and resulted in a reduction of per share earnings of 10 cents. This includes the Titanium Metals Corporation of America loss which amounted to 12 cents per share. The abandonment of the titanium pigment facilities reinforced our efforts to minimize costs. This action will not have a significant effect on sales and the company will continue to be the world's leading manufacturer of titanium pigments through the use of its remaining facilities. Also, in the past 18 months we have closed down seven other unprofitable plants and have sold three marginal operations. As a result of the tightening of operations and in anticipation of improved results in 1972, the Board of Directors decided to maintain dividend payments at the same level established in late 1970. During 1971, dividend payments amounted to $1.00 per share, compared to $1.52% per share paid in 1970. The company has paid dividends to shareholders for 65 consecutive years. The Administration's economic stabilization program, as a whole, had no significant bearing on the results, for 1971. The wage/price freeze, however, did have a pronounced effect on operating results of the Doehler-Jarvis Division, as it came at a time when the division was negotiating new prices based on wage contract increases incurred earlier in tffe year. Capital expenditures amounted to $59,000,000 in 1970 and $84,000,000 in 1971. It is anticipated that capital expenditures for 1972 will be approximately $70,000,000. In January of 1971 the company raised $100,000,000 through the sale of 7Vi % debentures due in 1995. As of December 31,1971, the company had unused domestic bank term credit commitments of $62,500,000, some portion of which will be utilized during 1972 in connection with completion of the magnesium plant. However, it is not anticipated that the entire amount will be utilized. While 1971 was not a successful year in terms of overall earnings, N L Industries maintains its position as a leading manufacturer of metal and chemical products. The reshaping of the company that began in the late 1960s continued during 1971, especially in the case of riew market penetrations. The market for magnesium appears poised for increased growth, in anticipation of new applications for the metal. The growth of the magnesium metal market has been limited due to price and availability since there has been but one major source of supply in the United States. Our Great Salt Lake plant will go NL 000040519 2 into production during the first half of 1972 using a new lower cost process for extracting magnesium metal from the lake's brine water. This plant, when in full production, will expand U.S. output by one-third. Construction of a new plant for anti-corrosive pigments at Langerbrugge, Belgium, is now complete and a plant built in West Germany to manufacture gellants went into operation in the fall. Ground was broken in October for a new plant at Langerbrugge to manufacture specialty refractory products. All of these plants increase the availability and delivery of products to our expanding European markets. In its search for new sources of raw materials, N L Industries continues to emphasize its mining and exploration activities, now based in new facilities at Golden, Colorado. Research and development activities mount in importance to the company. The Electronics Department, organized under the New Ventures Group of R & D, expanded its product line through the acquisition of General Electric Company's specialty resistor business during the year. The company has given priority to environmental protection, and it must be realized that if.will have an effect on earnings. We spent approximately $12,000,000 in 1971 on additional control equipment and overall operating costs. Environmental health is of deep concern to the company and this concern was emphasized by the formation of a Boardappointed committee to monitor policy and action in this area. During the year, two new directors were elected, J. Frank Forster, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Sperry Rand Corporation, and Edgar J. Hagstette, Jr., Vice President and General Manager of the Baroid Division. Two directors previously elected to fill vacancies on the Board, Richard M. Paget, President of Cresap, McCormick and Paget, Inc., and Harry W. Siefert, Vice President of Finance, were also elected by the shareholders. On February 29,1972, Ray C. Adam was elected Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. He was also elected a director of the com pany and a member of the Executive Committee. The office of Chief Operating Officer is a newly cre ated post in N L Industries designed to strengthen the executive organization of the company. Mr. Adam was formerly a Vice President of Mobil Oil Corpo ration and President of Mobil Chemical Company. During the past two years, as the pressures imposed by the sluggish national economy took their toll on earnings, there was a considerable effort by our employees to answer the problems created by these pressures. We thank them for their loyalty and dedication. N L Industries is a stronger company today because of the measures taken to cut costs, restructure management and open up new markets. Those internal factors, togetherwith improving economic conditions that began to develop toward the end of 1971, lead us to expect more favorable results in 1972. Corporate developments RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT: Research and development operating expenditures amounted to approximately $19 million in 1971. Increased efforts were made in the development of new products in support of the company's divisions and subsidiaries. Several new products were developed and introduced to the market as additives for plas tics. Some of these materials are novel and highly efficient flame retardant chemicals. Metallurgical research resulted in the devel opment of additional alloys of magnesium to broaden and increase the present applications of this lightweight metal. Also in the area of metallurgy, a line of electronic solder special ties was developed. The Electronics Department, organized in early 1971 by the New Ventures Group of the Corporate Research and Development Depart ment, began manufacturing thermistors and varistors at a new plant in Muskegon, Michigan. The acquisition of General Electric Company's specialty resistor business during the year ex panded the department's product line. The objective of the New Ventures Group is to start new business based on advanced tech nology. EMPLOYEE RELATIONS: Overall employment in N L Industries domestic and foreign opera tions declined to 27,500 as a result of lower business levels and improved efficiency. Significant progress was made in the further development of our management resources. In-depth analyses of management talent in our divisions and staff departments and the strengthening of individually tailored develop ment programs are improving the company's executive utilization. A total of 41 collective bargaining agree ments were successfully negotiated in 1971 covering 7,800 employees. Manhours lost due to strikes were less than 1 percent of total manhours worked. Improvement in industrial safety was noted as a result of our Total Accident Control Pro gram. During 1971, frequency and severity of accidents were reduced by approximately 20 percent. This program was restructured to in corporate requirements of the Federal Occu pational Safety and Health Act of 1970. The company continued to implement its equal employment and affirmative action pro gram with the result of increased employment for female and minority employees. All new Federal requirements were adopted as an in tegral part of the overall program. N L Indus tries continued its positive commitments to regulatory agencies and the National Alliance of Businessmen in promoting fair and equitable employment practices. LITIGATION: With regard to the action insti tuted against the company in 1970 in the Cir cuit Court of the City of St. Louis, Missouri, by 350 plaintiffs claiming compensatory and puni tive damages from alleged pollution of the atmosphere by the company's St. Louis titani um pigment plant, the complaints of 243 plain tiffs have been dismissed without prejudice for their failure to submit answers to interroga tories. This has had the effect of reducing the damages claimed by $6,075,000, or about three fourths of the total demand. Motions of similar import have been made on different grounds with respect to a substan tial number of the balance of the claimants. These motions await determination by the Court. The insurance carrier has taken the position that any award of punitive damages would be outside the coverage of the policies and it has reserved its right to disclaim liability for compensatory damages. The carrier has under taken defense of the action with a full reserva tion of its rights. In the opinion of local counsel for the com pany, disposition of the above-mentioned action will not have a substantial effect upon the earnings or the financial condition of the company. MINING EXPLORATION: Mining and Explora tion Department offices were relocated from New York City to Golden, Colorado, to put the department closer to the area in which many of its activities are conducted. In 1971, mineral concentrating machinery manufactured by Mineral Deposits, Limited, an affiliate in Australia, was introduced in North America through the Mining and Exploration Department. The machinery scavenges ore from very low grade ore values in plant tailings as well as its primary function of beneficiating run-of-mine ores. Testing facilities necessary to support technical sales were established in Golden, Colorado. This is N L Industries first venture in the mining equipment business. At the MacIntyre Development mine in New York State, the $4.5 million magnetite regrind circuit was completed to produce higher quality magnetite. Magnetite is used by the heavy media and steel industries. The ilmenite pro duction at this mine will be reduced in 1972 due to the substitution of slag as a feed material in our St. Louis titanium pigment plant. During the year, a drilling program was con tinued at our fluorspar property in Central Idaho. Sufficient reserves have been devel oped to undertake a feasibility study on the economics of the property. In Brazil, a concentrating plant is being built by an affiliate for the production of cassiterite, a tin ore. It will come on stream in 1972 and will have an initial capacity of 1,000 tons per year. Exploration activities were conducted in Mexico for silver, gold, zinc-lead and copper; in Brazil for tin; in Australia for barite and bentonite and in the United States for zinc. Several possibilities exist for further develop ment of ores located on company leases. ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL: During 1971, your company noted many accomplishments in the area of environmental control. The new $4 million double absorption acid manufacturing unit was completed at our tita nium pigment plant in St. Louis. This unit con trols sulfur oxide emissions with better than 99.5 percent conversion efficiency. It replaces three older less efficient units, and is the most efficient unit of its kind to be built in the United States. Completion of this project coupled with the installation of a venturi scrubber bring this plant in compliance with the St. Louis County atmospheric emissions control regulations adopted in 1968. Also in St. Louis, as well as in Cincinnati, particulate emissions are being effectively con trolled from red brass melting operations at our Magnus Metal Division plants with the installa tion of improved melting furnaces. The Pigments & Chemicals Division has in stalled a new scrubbing device at its St. Louis plant that will substantially reduce emissionswhich are visible only in cold weather. New dry dust collection equipment was brought on stream at the company's TAM Division Niagara Falls, New York, plant to effectively control furnace room emissions of particulate matter into the atmosphere. The Sayreville, New Jersey, titanium pigment plant continued its program to reduce air emis sions. One venturi scrubber was brought on line with a second scrubber of this type to be in operation by the summer of 1972. At our new magnesium production plant in Utah, we are collecting base-line data to be sure the plant operation will not affect the local ecology. This new plant has incorporated the best available environmental control technol ogy and equipment for a facility of this type. As a responsible corporate citizen, your company will continue to improve its control of all emissions in and around its plants to help maintain a healthy environment for its em ployees and neighbors. Environmental controls have become a sig nificant cost factor and are requiring ever greater technological advances to achieve rela tively minor improvements. In 1971, the company spent approximately $12 million on its total environmental protection program. This experimental safety vehicle and others developed by the automobile industry utilize the expertise of our Tool & Engineering Division in tooling and malting prototype parts.

The lower prices of base and precious metals, especially antimony and silver, had a significant effect on earnings. The price of antimony, a major base metai product of the company, declined approximately 40 percent during the year. Sales of precision bearings, journal and roller bearings and other bearings products produced by Magnus Metal Division, American Bearing Division and The Bunting Brass and Bronze Company were slightly lower than in 1970. The minority interest in Morris P. Kirk & Son, Inc. and its subsidiary, Pioneer Aluminum, Inc., was purchased by the company. It previously owned 76 percent of the outstanding stock of these companies. PioneerAluminum, under new management, embarked upon a major effort to expand into commercial industrial markets. Plans for the Metal Division in 1972 include completion of a new secondary smelter engi neered with the most modern production equip ment and emission control devices. A new electrolytic process for refining silver scrap will be on stream in early 1972 at the Goldsmith Division. Jonathan Manufacturing Company expanded its line of precision steel slides to include com mercial slides for use in such products as filing drawers. The Metals, Bearings and Jonathan Group is consolidating its base metals manufacturing operations, where possible, to maximize its profits and efficiency. Some operations that have become unprofitable or incompatible with existing product lines were either sold or shut down. Blatchford Base and. Aluminum Match Plate Corporation were sold during the year. The Southern Screw Division operated at about the same level as in 1970. The fastener industry continued to meet strong competition from imports, especially in standard sizes and configurations. For 1972, the division is intro ducing a new thread rolling screw under the r o l o k trade name for use in metals, die cast ings and ductile plastics. This new fastener eliminates tapping and resists vibration. National Lead Company, S.A. in Buenos Aires, Argentina, became a wholly owned sub sidiary of N L Industries in January, 1971. National Lead Company, S.A. primarily pro duces fabricated lead products. The latest twist in fasteners from the Southern Screw Division. This new line of ROLOK screws rolt-iorms its own thread tor a perfect lit that won't shake loose and oilers customer cost savings by eliminating tapping needs. Recycling contributes to a better environment and is a good business. At plants across the country, our Metal Division salvages thousands of used automobile batteries (foreground). The reclaimed alloys are used again by battery manufacturers to make new batteries (insert). NL 000040525 9 Titanium pigments The company's Titanium Pigment Operations completed a difficult year that was plagued with worldwide industry overcapacity and increased costs. Despite these adverse conditions our worldwide share of the market showed a slight increase and our U.S. share remained the same. However, because of the competitive situation in the Canadian market, the increased cost of doing business in Europe and the depressed prices that prevailed in the United States throughout the entire year, earnings declined. Some of our titanium pigment plants oper ated on a curtailed basis during part of the year to reduce inventories. In December 1971, it was announced that the company's chloride proc ess facilities at Sayreville, New Jersey, and Varennes, Quebec, Canada, would be aban doned. The calcium extended pigment facilities at St. Louis, Missouri, were also abandoned. Abandonment of these facilities will not have a significant effect on our sales and we will con tinue to be the world's leading manufacturer of titanium pigments through the use of our remaining facilities. We will continue to operate the chloride process facility in West Germany. The calcium extended pigments will be replaced by other grades presently manufactured by the com pany. Further progress was made during 1971 in supplying titanium pigments in bulk thereby offering an economic advantage to our cus tomers. This trend is expected to grow further during 1972. Our Titanium Pigment Operations will con tinue to maintain a satisfactory position in pro ducing its own raw materials. Expansion of the Tellnes, Norway, mine to one million tons ca pacity is proceeding on schedule, and addi tional tonnage will be available for use in company plants and for sale to other pigment manufacturers. Operating profits are expected to improve in 1972 as a result of elimination of unprofitable business, better operating efficiency and the effects of a price increase both in the United States and Europe. Sales of strontium titanate boules, another area of our Titanium Pigment Operations, in creased again in 1971 with generally satisfac tory earnings. For the first time we offered finished gem stones to the jewelry trade, as well as boules that require further fabrication, to reinforce our market position. Colorful everyday plastics products, such as telephones, rely on titanium pigments to impart whiteness, brightness and opacity. These pigments are also essential to paint, paper and other industries. 10 NL 000040527 Die castings Sales were higher and earnings slightly lower for the Doehler-Jarvis Division in 1971. The increase in smaller cars which require fewer and smaller die castings, the general ex cess capacity in captive die casting operations of major customers and the continued decline in the use of zinc die castings for decorative hardware were some of the factors that affected earnings performance. While the die casting industry as a whole sustained sizable losses, the Doehler-Jarvis Division did well by comparison with the indus try. Sales gains over 1970 were recorded in both aluminum and magnesium die castings. Our position in zinc die castings was main tained and there was only a slight reduction in sales of brass die castings. Doehler's better-than-average industry per formance was largely the result of success in finding new markets for die castings to replace the shrinking zinc market. Its recent entry into injection molded plastics should help offset the declining zinc business as more zinc die cast parts are replaced by plastics. Basic research in new die casting applica tions was conducted to apply our patented transplant coat process to the production of the Wankel engine. Other projects include the design of a die cast aluminum engine block for a major automobile producer and the develop ment of a die cast magnesium baseball bat as a proprietary product. With N L Industries entry into primary mag nesium production, Doehler's magnesium die casting technological development program resulted in increased magnesium die casting usage. In early 1971, an agreement with AC Spark Plug Company was made to produce magnesium fuel pump units. The Batavia, New York, plant was expanded to accommodate this increased business and to provide additional capacity for further expansion. Our foreign die casting subsidiaries had a good year. Doehler-Australia, Pty. Ltd., formed in early 1971, showed good growth and is fast becoming a major custom die castings supplier to Australia's expanding industry. Barber Die Casting Co., Limited and Lakeshore Die Cast ing, Limited, in Canada, showed marked improvement in manufacturing performance, especially at Barber, where its three-speed transmission program for General Motors was highly successful. Metal Castings Doehler, Ltd., in Great Britain also recorded a gain in both sales and earnings. From slide projector component parts (left) to automobile parts like the tail light assembly (below), the Doehler-Jarvis Division is a specialist in the manufacture of both small and large, and simple and complex die castings tor many products. Its plants in the United States and overseas have complete die casting facilities for design, assembly, finishing and production. Chemicals & plastics The Pigments & Chemicals Division developed more efficient lead oxides for use in the storage battery industry. This was in response to the rapid growth of lead-acid storage batteries in the areas of portable power tools and electric vehicles which require more sophisticated raw materials. New markets for some of its line of BENTONEgellants were developed in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Another potential market for these products is agricultural insecticides and liquid fertilizers. Sales continued at a good level in the established gellant markets of paints, plastics, inks and adhesives. Gellants are used as suspension and flow control agents. Several new chemical additives for rigid PVC plastics to improve heat, light, impact and resistance to fire were developed. These com pounds have application in plastic pipe, resi dential siding, drains, gutters and other similar molded plastics products. The division has developed new antimony compounds for use in plastics, textiles and paints to improve flame retardancy. The de mand for flame resistant materials is growing fast due to public and governmental pressures. For economy and improved work efficiency the division relocated its executive, marketing and research groups into one building at Hightstown, New Jersey. New plants were completed in West Germany and Belgium for the production and marketing of ben t o n e gel lants and o n c o r anti-corrosive pigments in Europe. Earnings by our Amos-Thompson Corpora tion subsidiary declined in 1971. Tight pricing in the plastics markets brought about low mar gins, especially in the automotive industry. The continued growth of synthetic materials and photographic finishes which compete with Amos-Thompson's wood veneer products also affected earnings and sales. Sales and earnings by The Baker Castor Oil Company, a subsidiary, were comparable to the previous year. Sales of the company's chemical specialty lines and castor-urethane adhesives increased appreciably. The number of applications of the newlydeveloped line of castor-urethane adhesives was expanded. This product is used for install ing artificial plastic turf in indoor and outdoor sporting arenas as well as for installing other artificial surfaces. Several new thixotropes for the protective coatings industry were also de veloped and introduced to the market. 12 Our subsidiary the AmosThompson Corporation makes many custom iniection-molded plastic parts such as television cabinets and adding machine housings (top). New York City's VerrazanoNarrows Bridge (below) and other similar structures are protected from exposure, by paints formulated with ONCOR anti-corrosive pigments, developed and produced by the Pigmeits & Chemicals Division. > Oil well materials & services i g bbl J Baroid Division has developed a unique, on-site computerized drilling control unit which utilizes a computer (above) in a mobile unit to guide well drilling lor minimum cost operation. Baroid's well known lines of specialized mud products are used at drilling sites (below) around the world, to lubricate drill bits and act as down-hole suspension agents. The Baroid Division moderately increased its overall sales and profits in 1971 above the previous year's level despite a reduction in U.S. and Canadian drilling activities brought about by the general economic slowdown and eco logical pressures. The division is a leading supplier of oil and gas well drilling materials and services, and provides products and services to the mining, water treatment, oil and gas production, brew ing, foundry, grease, paint, livestock feed, steel and other industries. International sales of drilling fluids increased substantially, particularly in Southeast Asia, South America, Nigeria and the Middle East. Sales gains were recorded in the logging, perforating and other wireline services of the McCullough Services Department. New and up dated equipment has enhanced McCullough's capabilities for remedial work on producing oil and gas wells. Growth was achieved in sales of chemicals used for water treatment and for corrosion and. scale control, and in sales to the non-soap! grease market. Baroid has mining and processing opera tions in the United States, Canada, Italy and Latin America for barite, bentonite and other basic materials used in drilling fluids and foundry products. The growing drilling activity in Southeast Asia is consuming ever-increasing amounts of drilling fluids material. The division has continued to strengthen its position in this area by further development of Australian bentonite deposits. Preliminary exploration and metallurgical work were completed on a new source of barite in northern Canada, to serve the expected Arctic drilling operations. Computerized Drilling Control (CDC) units were put into operation in 1971 after an exten sive period of field testing. The CDC system is a new and unique well-servicing concept which utilizes on-site computers to analyze drilling functions and to optimize drilling rates based on minimum cost operations. CDC is a vital part of Baroid's drilling engineering concept, an integrated system of information gathering, analyzing, and engineering direction through out the entire drilling process. The outlook for 1972 is for continued growth in foreign sales of drilling fluids, demand for McCullough Services, utilization of oil field rental equipment, grease industry sales and wireline services. ML 000040530 13 Other products For the Paint Division, manufacturer and mar keter of d u t c h bo y paints, 1971 was a good year with both sales and earnings increasing. For 1972 a completely new and expanded consumer advertising and merchandising pro gram has been developed featuring the quality aspects of both interior and exterior d u t c h bo y paints. This program will make extensive use of all major television networks, local TV spots, newspapers and point-of-sale material. TAM Division sales and earnings declined in 1971 mainly due to slow market conditions of its various customers. Because of unprofitable operation, the division is dropping ferro titanium alloys used to deoxidize steel. New product prospects include development of a chemical compound filter for kidney machines and chemical compounds that will improve flame retardancy in wool. Earnings by The Chas.Taylor's Sons Com pany, a specialty refractories manufacturing subsidiary, increased significantly as a result of an effective cost reduction program begun in 1970. Sales of Taylor refractories to the Common Market through Chas. Taylor Sons, S.A. in Bel gium increased over 1970. To meet this grow ing demand, construction began last year on a new plant in Langerbrugge, Belgium which will manufacture refractory cements, moldables and castables. Based upon the terms and conditions of an accepted proposal, the company's Nuclear Division is presently negotiating a long-term agreement with Allied-Gulf Nuclear Services, a partnership composed of Allied Chemical Nu clear Products, Inc.(a wholly-owned subsidiary of Allied Chemical Corporation) and Gulf Oil Corporation. Under the agreement, the com pany will design and fabricate special equip ment required forthe transportation of irradiated fuel and will transport such fuel by truck, rail, and/or water from various utility reactor sites located throughout the United States to the Allied-Gulf reprocessing plant at Barnwell, South Carolina. The agreement also calls for the company's rendering of reactor-site serv ices in connection with the handling and transportation of the irradiated fuel. It is con templated that shipments will begin in July 1973 and continue for approximately twenty years. Construction of the Magnesium Division's magnesium metal and chemical complex by the Great Salt Lake in Utah neared completion at the end of 1971. It will be on stream in the first half of 1972. Operation at full capacity of 45.000 tons per year of magnesium metal and 80.000 tons per year of chlorine should be real ized by late 1973 and will expand U.S. output of magnesium metal by one-third. This plant will use a new process for extract ing magnesium metal from the Great Salt Lake's brine water. This new process, com bined with a greater concentration of raw material--magnesium chloride--in the lake, will allow magnesium to be more competitive with other lightweight materials. New technology to decrease the costs of manufacturing is also being developed. 1 Our Latex House Paint, like other widely known Dutch Soy interior and exterior paints, represents a standard of quality tor thousands ot satisfied homeowners. W L Industries will become a leading supplier of magnesium metal in 1972 when its unique brine preparation and electro lytic cell production facility comes on stream. Magnesium chloride-rich brine from the Great Salt Lake is to be con centrated as teed to the plant. NL 000040531 Affiliates TIMET A sharp reduction in sales for 1971 resulted in a substantial loss for the year for Titanium Metals Corporation of America (t imet ) a subsidiary jointly owned by the com pany and Allegheny Ludlum Industries, Inc. t imet reported a loss of $9,885,000 on 1971 sales of $37,277,000 as compared to 1970 losses of $5,641,000 on sales of $49,947,000. Many key factors contributed to the con tinued pressure on earnings. Curtailment and lagging production of military and civilian air craft, which utilize large quantities of titanium, directly affected titanium metal consumption. Overcapacity, very low selling prices, inflation ary cost increases, high depreciation and inter est charges, titanium sponge imports and a three month strike that ended in January, 1972 at the Toronto, Ohio, mill products plant were also contributing factors. In meeting the adverse conditions in the in dustry, t imet reduced its work force. Prior to the strike at Toronto, Ohio, the sponge and ingot operation at the Henderson, Nevada plant was shut down since adequate inventories were available. The Henderson plant was re opened in early 1972. Outside the aerospace industry, there is growing interest in the use of titanium tubing. This type of welded tubing has demonstrated long service life with its resistance to acidic corrosion and is finding use in desalting, power plant surface condensers, oil refineries and chemical processing equipment, t imet has im proved the technique of tubing manufacture to the point where titanium is now competitive with many of the more commonly used tubing materials. Titanium electrode markets have found broader acceptance in 1971, and requirements for commercially pure grade material are grow ing. Anodes for wet chlorine gas and cathodes for electrolytic refining of copper remain most promising for large potential users of titanium strip products. Although titanium is finding growing markets in other areas, the aerospace industry is still by far the largest user of this metal. As economic conditions in this industry improve, titanium usage will increase. An upsurge in business investment should also increase usage as new plants are built which utilize equipment con taining titanium metal. LAKE VIEW TRUST AND SAVINGS BANK Despite profit-squeezing lending rates and sluggish demand for loans, Lake View Trust and Savings Bank achieved net earnings of $4,137,000, which compared favorably with 1970 net earnings of $4,466,000. The Bank retained its standing among the top ten banks in the State of Illinois and con tinues as the largest bank in Chicago outside the Loop. It reached an all-time high in average gross daily deposits of $298 million for the year 1971. Total assets at year end were $345,462,000, compared to $327,429,000 for 1970. Deposit growth and account retention were due to improved customer service. Marketing, planning and promotional activities were strengthened in 1971, resulting in marked gains in several banking service areas. The Bank Holding Company Act Amend ments of 1970 provide that a bank holding company such as N L Industries, Inc. shall not after December 31, 1980 engage in any activities other than banking or activities closely related to banking, subject to conditions that the Federal Reserve Board may impose. While the company must divest itself of control of the Bank by December 31, 1980, it might be necessary or advisable to do so prior to that date if the Federal Reserve Board objected! to acquisitions or new activities of N L Industries. 1 THE CANADA METAL COMPANY, LIMITED, a 50 percent owned subsidiary, had lower sales and earnings than in 1970. Overall perform ance generally followed the pattern of lower profit margins and declining prices of base metals experienced in the United States. Can ada Metal is a manufacturer of nonferrous metal products and alloys. MINERAL DEPOSITS, LIMITED, an 85 percent owned subsidiary in Australia, had a good year. Sales of zircon, used as a raw material in refractory products, increased. Exports of its Reichert mining equipment also increased. A desalting plant in Key West, Florida, received in 1971 the longest welded titanium tubes ever produced. Fabricated at TlMET.these 105-toot titanium tubes combat the corrosive elfects ol sea water in the process ol converting salt water to Iresh water.

The Company includes in income its equity in the net income of such sub sidiaries. To conform with recent developments in accounting principles, commencing in 1971 the Company retroac tively adopted the practice of reporting its investments in companies owned 50% or less and minor majorityowned foreign subsidiaries at its equity in their under lying net assets and including in income its equity in the net income of these companies.

Under provisions of the 1968 Stock Option Incentive Plan, 700,000 shares of the Company's common stock have been reserved for issuance to officers and to other key employees. Under the plan, options may be granted to purchase common stock at 100% of the market price at the date of grant and are exercisable over a period of five years from date of grant. Details of shares under option at December 31, 1971 and transactions during the year follow: Balance at January 1,1971 Granted Less: Exercised Expired Balance at December 31,1971 Price per share of shares granted and outstanding at December 31,1971 Shares exercisable Available for future options at December 31,1971 395,400 --- 1,300 25,500 368,600 $20 to $36 368,600 329.700 The excess ($17,000) of the cost of treasury shares is sued (1,300 shares) over the proceeds on the exercise of options was charged to capital surplus. In addition the Company purchased 435 of its own shares during 1971. In connection with the acquisition of the Bunting Brass & Bronze Company in 1968, the Company granted to hold ers of stock options previously granted by Bunting, sub stitute stock options. During the year, no options were exercised and options for 476 shares at $20.50 per share are outstanding at December 31, 1971. The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock without par value. The rights of the pre ferred stock as to dividends, redemption, liquidation and conversion will be determined upon issuance. 5. p en s io n s . The Company and its subsidiaries have various pension plans covering the majority of their em ployees. Total pension costs approximated $10,900,000 in 1971 and $10,100,000 in 1970. Current service costs are being funded. The major portion of the prior service costs is being charged to.income and funded over a period of thirty years. With respect to one of the major plans, there was a change during the year in the actuarial method and certain actuarial assumptions used in com puting pension cost as well as amendment of certain benefits. The effect of these changes on pension cost and net income was not material. Unfunded vested bene fits at December 31, 1971 amounted to approximately $15,096,000. 6. c o n t in g e n c y .

Com pliance with this provision has been waived by the lend ers to the extent that from July 31,1971 to December 31, 1974, t ime t may maintain working capital in an amount not less than $6,000,000. At December 31,1971, the net working capital of TiMEr as defined in the loan agree ment was $6,591,000. 7. l it ig a t io n . See comments regarding pending litiga tion on page4. Auditors' report Lybrand, Ross Bros. & Montgomery Certified Public Accountants 1251 Avenue of the Americas, New York, N.Y. To the Shareholders of N L Industries, Inc. New York, N.Y. We have examined the consolidated balance sheet of N L Industries, Inc. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31,19^1 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of changes in financial position for the year then ended. Our. examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We did not examine the financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries in 1970 whose total assets and total sales comprised 17% and 14%, respectively, of the corresponding consolidated totals. In 1971 we have examined the financial statements of certain of those subsidiaries not examined by us in 1970 and the total assets and total sales of the remaining subsidiaries whose financial statements were not examined by us in 1971 were not material in relation to the corresponding consolidated totals. In addition, we did not examine the financial statements of certain partially-owned companies, for which the Company's equity in the earnings is included in the income statement caption "Equity in partially-owned companies," which statements reflect net losses of $4,307,000 and $1,409,000 for 1971 and 1970, respectively, applicable to the Company. All of these statements were examined by other certified public accountants whose reports thereon were furnished to us. Our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for such subsidiaries and partially-owned companies, is based solely upon such reports. We made a similar examination of the financial statements of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for the year 1970. In our opinion, based upon our examination and the reports of other certified public accountants, the aforementioned financial statements present fairly the consolidated financial position of N L Industries, Inc. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries at December 31,1971 and. 1970, and the consolidated results of their operations and of changes in financial position for the years then ended, in conformity with gen erally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
