Be l l in g e r OFFICES An a c o n d a , Mo n t a n a Bu t t e , Mo n t a n a 25 Br o a d w a y , Ne w Yo r k To the Shareholders of Anaconda Copper Mining Company: The consumption of non-ferrous metals during 1935 was substantially greater than in the prior year. Consumption of copper in the foreign markets established an all-time record. In the domestic market copper consumption improved materially over the preceding year; nevertheless, it remained abnormally low*compared;: with either the high year of 1929 or the average consumption for the;five years immediately preceding 1929. During the first half of the year, although deliveries of tapper in the domestic market were maintained at a normal ratio to Consumption, buying'practically ceased during May and the first part of June due to tfiel uncertainty that attended the continuance of the National Industrial; Recovery, Act, and the price of copper in this market declined' from 8.775e to 7.775s; per pound. With the: general increase in business during the last half of the year large sales of copper were made arid the price'advanced until at the close of the year it was 9.025e per pound, f.o.b. refinery. At the beginning of the year it became evident that there was an over-production of copper outside the United Sjcates for foreign markets and foreign, production was curtailed. As a result, the stocks of refined copper abroad, which; had. Increased during the first half of the year, were thereafter materially reduced, The foreign price of copper declined to the equivalent of 6.156 i; pound in February; thereafter it advanced and reached the equivalent of 8.756 in October; and at the ehd of the year1 was quoted at the equivalent of S.375e f.o.b. refinery. The World smelter production of primary copper during the year was 1,575,838 tons, an increase of 16.7% overproduction of the prior year. Of this total 372,738 toils were domestic duty-free copper and 1,2031100 tons were foreign. Refined primary copper production totalled 1,550,745 tons, of which 368,407 tons were domestic and 1,182,338 tons were foreign. The World consumption of primary copper equalled 1,652,078 tons, an increase of approximately 19.6% compared with the prior year. Domestic consumption of primary copper totalled 415,663 tons, and foreign consumption 1,236.415 tons. Domestic con sumption including secondary copper totalled 528,194 tons, an increase of 39.0% ;r 1934. Foreign consumption in 1935 increased 11.3% pver the prior year and was the highest on record, while consumption in the United States was only 30% of that of 1929. Stocks of refined copper in the United States decreased 123,021 ton3, partially due to the exportation of duty free copper. Refined stocks abroad increased 21,688 tons. The net decrease in total refined stocks was therefore 101,333, tons. Refined stocks in the United States were approximately 292,000 tons less than at December31,1933. The production of zinc ia the domestic market totalled 431.412 tons for the year, an increase as compared with the prior year of 17.6%. Domestic consumption totalled 46S.600 3 torii lit ifttifSase of 32.1% over the prior year, and was greater than that of any year since 1929. Stocks of zinc in the United States decreased 36,072 tons, and were at the lowest point since 1929. The price fbr silver mined in. the United' States was raised to 71.lid per ounce under proclamation by the president of the United States on April '10th.and again to 77.516 per ounce on April 24th, and closed- the year at that figure. Gold remained at $35.00 per ounce throughout the year. The price of foreign silver, which reached a high of 81d per ounce in April, 1935, declined sharply during the latter half of the year, and closed the year at 49.75e per ounce. The prices for non-ferrous metals averaged for the year somewhat higher than the averages that prevailed, during the prior year, Prices of the principal instate.were reported by Engineering & Mining Journal as follows: Copper--Duty Freef.o.b, Refinery---Cents per lb----- " --Export Lo.b.Refihery--Centsper lb..............

After negotiation these debentures were sold to the underwriters on October 18, 1935. The offering price to the public was 98J% and the commission to the underwriters was 3%. These debentures are the direct unsecured obligations of the Company. Upon the sale of the debentures the outstanding bank loans of your Company and its subsidiary companies were paid. The indenture under which the debentures were issued contains a provision that on August 15, 1936, and on August 15th of each year thereafter to and including August 15, 1949, the Company will pay to the Trustee, (Guaranty Trust Company of New York), for the purposes of a sinking fund for the retirement of debentures, an amount equal to the sum of the following: (a) $1,000,000 plus (b) twenty percent (20%) of the consolidated net income of the Company, as the same is defined in the indenture, for the period of twelve months ended on the next preceding December 31st. Such consolidated net income is the consoli dated net income as published in the annual report of the Company for the respective twelvemonths period, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the indenture. In lieu of any such sinking fund payment, the Company may deliver to the Trustee debentures to be credited at cost to the Company. There is a provision that the maximum amount of sinking fund payments required shall be so limited that the total amount of debentures issued need not be retired through the sinking fund before October 1, 1945. The shares of the capital stock of your Company were registered on the view Tork Stock Exchange and the Boston Stock Exchange under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the 414% Sinking Fund Debentures were similarly registered on the '.VewVork Stock Exchange: Following steps begun in 1934 to simplify the corporate structure of the Company, the assets and business of six minor 100% owned subsidiaries were transferred in 1935 to. your Company, or other 10(5% owned subsidiaries. An adjustment was made with the Montana Power Company in connection with powercharges deferred during the period of drastic curtailment of operations in Montana when, the power used whs below the minimum provisions of the -contract with that company,- and as a part consideration the(facilities of the Electric;'hight' .Departmehti which supplied: electric light and power to the Cttydf Anaconda,-Mpniatta, were transferred to the Power Company. FINANCIAL The gross sales and earnings of the Company and its subsidiary companies upon a consolidated basis totalled $127,678,576.68, compared with $99,149,555.64 for the prior year. The cost of sales, including all operating expenses,, development and maintenance charges, repairs, administrative, selling and general expenses, and all taxes except income taxes, amounted to $100,266,618.82, compared with $82,053,027.58 for the previous year, resulting in an operating income of $27,411,957.86, compared with $17,096,508.06 in 1934. The total income, including other income of $1,011,366.88, amounted to $28,423,324.74. After deducting from income the following items: interest on bonds and current obliga tions $4,044,434.87; expenses pertaining to non-operating units $2,403,935.88; United States and foreign income taxes (estimated) $1,957,992.16; and loss on bonds retired $47,045.11; a total of $8,453,408.02, the balance was $19,969,9.16.72. Provision for depredation and obsolescence and for depletion of timber, coal and phosphate lands was $8,390,015.79, and the discount:on bonds was $266,173.96, a total for these items,of $8,656,189.75, and the re sultant net Income on a consolidated basis for the year (without deduction for depletion of metal mines), was $11,313,726.97, as compared with $1,960,093.75 for the prior year. The consolidated net income after deducting minority share of $153,639.52, was $11,180,087.45. Additional Federal income taxes for prior years plus charge-offs on dissolution of sub sidiary companies, less a credit on account of adjustment of deferred power charges, resulted in a net charge to consolidated surplus of $268,500.19, The funding of the bank loans through the issuance of the 4)^% Sinking Fund Debentures materially improved the consolidated current position of the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1935. Cash on hand at the dose of the year amounted to $17,869,122.46, compared with $12,245,431.10 at the close of 1934.

The improvement of S66.360.661.52 in the net current position- on a consolidated basis, and the decrease ot SI.360,000 in the funded debt of the subsidiary companies totalled $67.720.661-..52. Of this amount' $52,525,000 is attributable to the proceeds of the debentures and the balance, $15,195,661.52, Is accountedfor principally by earning's for the year plus depreciation charge in excess of expenditures for plant.

The company holds unpatented mining claims covering approximately 470 acres and, in addition, owns approximately 176 acres of patented agricultural lands which carry mineral rights. The property is equipped with adequate structures and machinery for mining ore and carrying on development work. Shipments are made by truck from: the mine to existing railroad faci -ties, and thence by railroad to the Tooele Copper Plant, A concentrator for the treatme't of lower grade ores than are now being shipped, is now being constructed at the mine. The Internationa! Smelting and Refining Company, a 100% owned subsidiary of .Ana conda owns 30.42% and 61.45% respectively of the stock of the Walker and Mountain City Companies. Fabricating Plants The shipments of manufactured products, of The American Brass Company, (including Toronto Plant), and of the Anaconda Wire and Cable Company totalled 531.102.747 pounds, compared with 425,516,899 pounds in the prior year, an increase of approximately 25%.

We have made an examination of the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 51st, 1935, of Anaconda Copper Mining Company and of the ocher corporations whose accounts are consolidated with its accounts as stated in Note A to the Consolidated Balance Sheet (which other corporations are hereinafter referred to as consolidated subsidiaries) and of their Consolidated Income and Surplus Accounts for the calendar year 1955. . In connection with our audit we examined or tested the accounting records of Anaconda Copper Mining Company and its consolidated subsidiaries together with other supporting evidence and made a general review of the accounting methods and of the operating and income accounts for the calendar year 1935, but we did not make a detailed audit of the transactions. The practice of the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to the computation of their net income or net loss without deduction fordepletion of metal mines is, in our opinion, in accordance with accepted principles of accounting in industries engaged in the mining of copper, gold, lead, silver and zinc. In our opinion, based on our examination, such Balance Sheet, Income and Surplus Accounts, together with the notes attached thereto or appearing thereon, fairly present, in accordance with accepted principles of accounting in the industries in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate, consistently maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries, the consolidated position of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of December 31st, 1935 and the combined results of their operations for the calendar year 1935, POGSON, PELOUBET & CO..
