For foe third quarter of 1996, foeCospaBy repotted** income of$80 auUioa. or $1.44 per dare, ao feoease of 14 percent from net income of $70 naflky or $1.28 per share, for the garter ended Sefxecober 30, 1995. The earnings growth fro epariott rejects primarily the beofiB of eatmtiom, srong testda fro tie roofing and foam bsamaaes, sod a fevotafcle litigation seriaaea with a former supplier, partially offset by' increased arimftiisrative charges it&ifrtag from the Oxtpany's auiag tapiessesaadoB ofits global productivity initiative* Advantage 2000.
N sales were $1,025 mBisnfor foe eerier ended Stptanher 30. 1996. ao 11 percent Incnm* fro the 1995 iMt of $927 aaSlkm. The growth is attributable to volume increases in foe Bcfldfag Materials segment worldwide, particularly is foe ILS., combined with foe focreaeatti wrasse from ecquisibau. Gross margm for foe quarter ended September 30 was 27 percent of sales is 1996. cocoparid 26 percent In 1995.
