The depressed economic scenario of 1980 was intensi fied in 1981. Tne international recession seriously damp ened the demand for cnemicais. and the performance of GAFs specialty chemicals in achieving a 6 percent increase m sales anc a 10 percent increase in earnings last year is therefore particu larly notewortny
~nis increase comes m spite of a $3 4 million reduction m
cnemicai export profits, due primarily to the strength of tne u S dollar agamst foreign currencies ana the generally aepressec marxet for tne roofing granules segment of the chemical business

m the cosmetics field. GAFs customers for Gantrez * hairspray polymers mtroduceo new consumer products and used increased volumes of our products The company continued to offer an ever widening choice of film formers for use in both pump and aerosol applications GAF is recognized as the leading supplier to this market
in the conditioning shampoo market Gafquatpolymer sales increased sharply with the introduction of sweral new consumer products
The demand for GAF solvents and intermediates grew with special emphasis on non toxic solvents tor industrial cleaning ano coating ap plications. intermediates for plastic ano polymer synthe
ses. and corrosion inhibitors for oil well additives Even in the depressed automotive market, growth was experi enced m the use of butanediol for polyurethane production
Gaftex! PT cross-nnkeo methyl vinyl ether polymer is a new thickener for textile print pastes it reached com mercial sales volume as com pounders recognized its su perior viscosity and its ability to give sharp prints on resintreated goods
Butanediol sales to the man ufacturers of PBT engineering plastic increased. GAFs own line of Gafite4 PBT resms ex panded appreciably as new
products were introduced and customer demand grew. Some of the new Gafite brand products introduced in 1981 include a foamabie PBT and a new resin for films Tne foamabie product has extra lightness and better surface characteristics. PBT films are being evaluated for packag ing applications where in tense heat is encountered, such as in "hot fill' food packages
Specialty surfactants The domestic surfactant line was pruned of a number of small-volume low-profit items m 1981 Special emphasis continued in the cosmetic paper, and emulsion polymer ization areas Sales and profit results both showed improve ment from existing prod ucts and from new product introductions
Among the new products introduced were two new Aiipal* sulfates for adhesive production and a new igepon* TC surfactant, a foaming aid tor toothpaste
Other specialty chemicals Market development con tinued encouragingly on GAFs new family of Gafgard'" polymeric coat ings for use m UV or electron beam cunng Three Gafgard products are now available to resilient flooring producers who need impact-resistant coatings A new patented product Gafgard 233 coat ing. was introduced m 1981 it offers super abrasion resis tance for flexible film sub strates of all types ano is being evaluated by a variety of film manufacturers
As a result of strong growm opportunities m acetvrene chemicals ano a premie' position in both, the acetyiene and specific surfactant '~a-kets. GAF eariv r 1982 launeneo a program to ex pand its sales efforts cv opening three new sates dis

Roofing granules GAFs roofing granges are solo to manufacturers of roof ing shingles ano roil roofing
The volumes used are there fore directly related to the levels of production of roofing materials in spite of the de cline m roofing volumes sares
and profits of GAFs granules in 1981 were close to 1980 re sults This was due to seve'ai factors including some volume increases from changes m customer mix ano improved piant efficiencies The capita expenditure program begun in 1979 tor the granules plants was contmuec it resulted m additional capacity coming on stream as well as the com pletion of several maior pollu

Tne new roofing line ap
proved in 1980 for the Dallas plant was completed ana be gan a successful start-up m December A mapr program
of technological upgrading of the roofing plants is unaer way This several-year effort is expected to reduce manufac turing costs ana improve Quality, which in turn will in crease sales volumes ana

Roofing
The conversion to tne use of glass mat as a roofing sub strate m place of organic felt continued m 1981 for both rooting shingies and builtup roofing Production at the new glass mat plant in Ches ter. South Carolina, was ex panded ana successfully met these increased requirements
As a result of the accelerating change m technology ana the generally lower volumes of roofing material manufac tured during the year produc tion nas been curtailea on the companys nine existing organic felt machines Three
felt machines at Dallas Kan sas City ana Joiiet nave been snut down ano written oh A orogram of acceieratec depreciation nas also been mpiementea for several aaditionai machines
Glass mat has some signifi cant aovantages. such as lower asphalt usage which are expectea to lead to its greater use m the future, but the good qualities of organic felt-based products indicate that felt machines will con tinue to be neeoed by GAF for many years to come
The year brought the intro duction of several accessory products to the built-up roof ing line, including Gafgias * flashing ana new expansion pint covers
To generate sales m the re roofing market, a Roof Mamtenance/Repair/Reroofing Program was introduced to the trade in the fall of 1981 and response has been gratifying

Management's Discussion and Analysis o< Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Financial Condition On December 30 1980 the company announced it was undertaking a maior restructuring whicn would include offer ing for sale a number of operating businesses By January ot 1982 the program was essentially completed In sum mary a total of six businesses were sold starting with pictorial products in July, graphic arts and vinyl siaing m August, flooring in September, paper and millboard in
November and reprographics in January 1982 In addition, the latex operation in Chattanooga, Tennessee, was sold during the latter part of 1980 Total proceeds from tnese sales in 1981 amounted to $107 million in cash Initial pro ceeds of $63.9 million from the sale of the reprographics
business were received by the company in January 1982. In addition, the company projects $23 million in cash from the saie of residual assets during the first half of 1982 that will complete this program. Additional cash inflows will accrue to the company in future years as approximately $15 million in interest-bearing notes received from certain buyers are retired Finally, the companyS financial condition was further
strengthened by assumption of $21.2 million in liabilities by the buyer of the reprographics business
The relative impact of this program on the financial condition of the company is reflected in the chart below

During the last six months of the year the company's net aebt was reduced by approximately $118 million from the cash proceeds of the businesses that were sold stanmg with the sale of pictorial products in July 1981
The overall importance of this program, which was suc cessfully completed in one year, cannot be overstated Although the year-end balance sheets for 1981 and 1980 indicate a net debt reduction of approximately $10 million, the program provided more than sufficient cash inflows to neio cusnon the adverse cash impact caused by the build ing materials segment in a year characterized by a severe drop-off in new housing starts nigh interest rates ana rising raw materia' costs wmch could not be passed on to cus tomers. the companys financial position improved from 1980
The company s working capital ratio increased m 198' `rcm 1 46.1 to 1 88 1 This increase primarily reflects the ejects c the sales of discontinued businesses, me reduction m snortterm debt and the increase in inventories The significant increase in Accounts Heceivabie-Othe' reflects a recen able of $63 9 million for tne sale of me reprograpn cs business, which was completed in early January 1982 Put effective as of December 31 1981 Of the tota1 me'ease in inventories m 1981 of $44.1 million as comoarec with '960 $37 6 million, representing a 70% increase reiatec to me building materials segment High inventory levels resulec r severai plant closings in the latter pan of 1981 an meust'ywide occurrence. Re-opening of these plants will be depen dent on a reduction in current inventory levels ana a return of market demand
The company's overall financial condition was further im proved in 1981 by the restructuring of the employee pension fund, as explained in Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Finan cial Statements. A dedicated bona portfolio was estab lished that will provide income sufficient to meet actuana ll y calculated payments to all retirees and vested former employees, including those of the discontinued businesses This allowed the company to reverse pension liability re serves established for employees of discontinued busi nesses. In addition this portfolio and a change in mieres: assumptions from 6% to 7% have placed the pension piar in a fully funded position with respect to all prior service obligations anb lowered pension expenses by $7 5 million in 1981 Future pension expenses will also be lower as a result
As fully explained in Note 14. the company replaced its existing short-term lines of credit in the first quarter of 1981 with a three-year $225 million revolving credit agreement with declining availability over the term Interest on these funds is at the prime rate At December 31.1981. $72 5 million of these funds were being utilized The agreement places limitations, among other things, upon dividends, capital expenditures, funded debt and otner borrowings The company is currently negotiating to replace this agree ment witn a new long-term revolving credit agreement tor $75 million
Capital expenditures in 1981 were $27 6 million ana are expected to be about $30 million in 1982 During 1981 me major expansion proiec! at the Dallas Texas rooting plan: was compietea ana tne capital expansion program ter me granules plants continued in addition several maior ooi'ution control projects were initiated in 1981 a: various Diar-ts At the end of the year the company had commitmenis of $11 6 million for approved capital expenditures Commit ments under various capital and operating lease ooi gai ers are detailed in Note 15 ot Notes to Consolidated Fmanc a: Statements

Managftflwflt's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Results of Operations "he company s sales anc profit performance from con tinuing operations decreased m each year for the period 1979 tnrougn 198' These results were oirectiy attnbutabie to tne building materials business which was severely hampered by the depressed state of the building industry
Consolidated sates decreased by less than 1% in 1980 edmoared with 1979 and again in 1981 edmpared with 1980. as additional chemical revenues were more than offset by a significantly lower sales volume in building materials infla tionary material cost increases m the building materials segment nave eroded tne consolidated gross margins from 25 1% m 197910 22.5% and 17 9% in 1980 and 1981. re spectively Total oirect operating profits of the two operating groups fell by 28 7% m 1980 compared with 1979 and by 72 6% in 1981 comparec with 1980
Tne Duiidmg materials business, as stated, was severely affected by the adverse economic conditions impacting the building industry, which were caused by high interest rales ana a fall-ob in new housing starts to 1.101.000 units from 1980s already depressed level of 1.313.000 units. Sales, which declined by 6% in 1980 from 1979 levels, decreased another 5% m 1981 resulting from a 13% lower unit saies volume for roofing products Direct operating results, which refiectea a 54% decrease in profits m 1980. showed a loss of S38 6 million in 1981 These results are primarily attributable to the following
Continued increased costs of petroleum-related products ano otner materials and an inability to pass along cost increases
Lower demand whicn resulted in the shutdown of the Kansas City and Denver roofing plants
> higr interest rates which haa an increasingly negative effect on tne reroofmg market, normally tne maior part of the companys business
A fourth Quarter 1981 provision of $15 1 million for antici pated costs relating to tne snuioown of certain felt muts
Additional expenses relating to commercial roofing
Management fully believes that this segment will return to its `ormer profitability once the current economic depressants ease ano demand for roofing products increases Also exoec'ed 10 aiC m this return to profitability will be tne me'easeo utilization of glass mat tor production 0* shingles, inus deceasing me companys reliance or costly pefcieum-feiaiea products
Chemical profits for the year t98i increased 3 8% or 5 sa increase of 5 8% Tms represented an increase return on chemicai assets from 27 3% m '980 to 2S-2cc 1981 Contributing to these results was tne Seacr *t z~e<~ z plant which became operational in iate '980 to man.tacture butyneoioi a preliminary step >n tne manufacture c butanediol Chemical domestic profits -ncreasec 2J% ' 1981 as a result of favorable sa'es pricing ano umi vo'^me increases in specialty chemicals oeso'te a ower sa'es volume m roofing granules Internationa' airec; cce'atmc profits were off $3 4 million for the vear 1981 ori~aniv c_,e : the increased strength of the U S ooila'
As indicated m the five-year oata m the Sumna'y o* Se lected Financial Data, the chemical segment nas snow'' aaverage yearly sales growth of approximately 15% ove- me period 1977-1981. Operating profits nave averaged more than 20% of sales over the same period s exoecteo -a' this segment will remain strong and continue ns growth .r sales and profitability Expanded marketing ebons nave been initiated and new products continue to be mtrocucec m addition, new uses ano new customers for existing orocucts have been developed
Other operating expenses, which increased Si3 6 million (12%) m 1980 over 1979, decreased n 1981 by $2 6 million (2%) This decrease was primarily due to tne reduction m pension expenses (explained more fully in Note 9) anc cor porate Staff reductions during tne year which will more 'uiiy impact 1982's expenses The income tax benefits in i98i fully detailed m Note 10. consist of tax benefits on domestic losses offset in part by tax expense reiateo to income from foreign operations Tne change from a tax rate of 36 4% m 1979 to a tax benefit of 13 7% m 1980 arose primarily from the increased impact of United States investment fax cred its. depletion allowances, and the benefits of the Domestic international Sales Corporation on reduceo earnings

being subiect to tne effects of any adiustments which
might result upon consummation of the company s plan of Disposal of certain of its operations As explained m Note 1 to the financial statements, tne companys Discon tinuance program was substantially completed ounne 1981 and portions of the reserve for loss on oispost on of assets and of the liability for phase-out costs established during 1980 but no longer considered necessary nave been restored to income in 1981 Accordingly, our pres ent opinion on the 1980 consohoateo financial siaiements. as expressed herein is different from mat expressed in our previous report

Supplementary Data (Unaudited)
Financial Reporting and Changing Prices ;n accordance with the Fmanc.ai Accounting Standards Board Statement Nc 33 ' Financial Reporting and Chang ing Prices the following supplementary information is presented to reflect the estimateo impact of inflation on the comparys earnings from continuing operations The companys historical cost 'manciai data nave Deen adiustec for the effects of genera: inflation on inventories and property, plant ano equipment (constant dollar basis) and for the effects of changes m specific prices on those assets (cur rent cos; basis) As a result, tne impact on net income only reflects aoiustments to depreciation expense ano cost of products solo Sales ano other costs ano expenses, in ducing income taxes, have not been adiusted
The management of GAF cautions the reader in interpret ing this supplementary data cue to the required use of numerous assumptions and estimates m preparing the in formation This data should therefore be construed only as indicators of the effects of inflation as opposed to precise measurements
Constant Dollar Information Constant dollar accounting is a method of reporting financial data in collars having an equal (i.e. constant) general purchasing power As required, this information has been compiled by adiusting the historical costs of inventories and property, plant and equipment for changes in the Consumer Price inoex for All Urban Consumers
Current Cost Information The current cost method adiusts historical costs of the company's inventories and property, plant and equipment to reflect changes in specific prices (current cost) of pro ducing those same inventories or replacing the assets at the balance sheet date Plant and equipment current costs were estimated by adjusting historical costs by externally generated industrial price indexes, inventory costs were developed using current manufacturing costs Inventory costs included in the Cost of Products Sold were deter mined on average current costs during the year Under both methods, depreciation expense was adjusted based on the restated asset values using the same esti mated useful lives ano depreciation rates used m the primary financial statements
Other Information Reflecting the adverse impact of inflation, the adjusted earnings unoer both the constant dollar and current cost methods are lower than the results from continuing opera tions reported m tne primary financial statements However, it should be noted that the guidelines estab lished by Statement No 33 specify that tne gam from tne
decline in purchasing power of net monetary iiab-iit es ~e :
curing tne year (S2" 7 million) may net be aggregate the adjusted earnings This gam ar ses because cu'^g 198"! the company had more liabilities which were fixec r amount of dollars to be repaid tnar it nao assets sim.iar'-. fixed in amount of dollars to oe received Whne this unre alized gain does not represent dollars wnicn will pe received in the future, it does represent an .mponant hedge against inflation, as this net monetary iiaoiiitv posi tion will be paid m dollars which nave a lower ou'cnas ng power than the dollars originally received n return for --e obligations.
