Annual Report (Form 10-K), fiscal year 1993

Item 1. Business.
Maytag Corporation (the "Company") was organized as a Delaware corporation in 1925. In 1989, the Company completed the acquisition of Chicago Pacific Corporation ("CPC"), a furniture and international home appliance company, through a cash tender offer followed by a stock merger. CPC operated in two segments, home appliances and furniture; however, the Company later sold the furniture companies segment.
The Company is engaged in two industry segments: home appliances and vending equipment. Financial and other information relating to industry segment and geographic data is included in Part II, Item 7 and Item 8.
HOME APPLIANCES
The home appliances segment comprises approximately 95% of 1993 consolidated net sales.
The Company, through its various business units, manufactures and distributes a broad line of home appliances including laundry equipment, gas and electric ranges, refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, and floor care products. In 1992, the Company sold its microwave oven and dehumidifier manufacturing operations. The Company continues to distribute microwave ovens and dehumidifiers, as well as compactors. Maytag Customer Service (formerly Maycor Appliance Parts & Service Co.) provides product service and parts distribution in the United States and Canada for all of the Company's appliance brands, except Hoover. Maytag International Inc., the Company's international marketing subsidiary, handles the sales of appliances and licensing of certain home appliance brands in markets outside the United States and Canada. Maytag Financial Services Corporation provides financing programs primarily to certain customers of the Company in North America.
The Company markets its home appliances to all major United States and many major international markets, including the replacement market, the commercial laundry market, the new home and apartment builder market, the manufactured housing (mobile home) market, the recreational vehicle market, the private label market and the household/commercial floor care market. Products are primarily sold directly to dealers but are also sold through independent distributors, mass merchandisers and large national department stores. Sales of appliances to manufacturers of mobile homes and recreational vehicles are made directly by specialized marketing personnel. Most home appliance sales are made within North America.
A portion of the Company's operations and sales are outside the United States. The risks involved in foreign operations vary from country to country and include tariffs, trade restrictions, changes in currency values, economic conditions and international relations. Geographic information is included in Part II, Item 8, Page 29.
The Company uses basic raw materials such as steel, copper, aluminum, rubber and plastic in its manufacturing process in addition to purchased motors, compressors, timers, valves and other components. These materials are supplied by established sources and the Company anticipates that such sources will, in general, be able to meets its future requirements.
The Company holds a number of patents which are important in the manufacture of its products. The licenses it holds on other patents are not considered to be critical to its business. The Company holds a number of trademark registrations of which the most important are ADMIRAL, HOOVER, JENN-AIR, MAGIC CHEF, MAYTAG, NORGE and the associated corporate symbols.
The Company's home appliance business is not seasonal.
The Company is not dependent upon a single home appliance customer or a few customers. Therefore, the loss of any one customer would not have a material adverse effect on its business.
The dollar amount of backlog orders of the Company is not considered significant for home appliances in relation to the total annual dollar volume of sales. Because it is the Company's practice to maintain a level of inventory sufficient to cover anticipated shipments and since orders are generally shipped upon receipt, a large backlog would be unusual.
The home appliance market is highly competitive with the principal competitors being larger than the Company. Because of continued competitiveness within the industry, price increases continue to be difficult to implement. There were no significant increases in the costs of the Company's raw materials or components in 1993. Information regarding the Company's improvement in gross margin over 1992 is included in Part II, Item 7. The Company uses product quality, customer service, advertising and sales promotion, warranty and pricing as its principal methods of competition.
Although the Company has many manufacturing sites with environmental concerns, compliance with laws and regulations regarding the discharge of materials into the environment or relating to the protection of the environment has not had a material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or the Company's competitive position. The scheduled phase-out of chlorofluorocarbons ("CFCs", an aerosol propellant and refrigerant) by the mid-1990s, mandated by government standards, continues to cause concern throughout the refrigeration industry. In addition, alternative washing machine designs to meet anticipated future government regulations dealing with energy and water usage are being evaluated by the Company and the industry. Because compliance with these current and anticipated laws and regulations is essentially prospective, it has not had a significant impact on current operations. It is anticipated that the industry and the Company will meet all final standards.
The number of employees of the Company within the home appliances segment as of December 31, 1993 was 19,661.
VENDING EQUIPMENT
The vending equipment segment comprises approximately 5% of 1993 consolidated net sales.
The Company manufactures, through its Dixie-Narco subsidiary, a variety of soft drink vending machines and money changers. The products are sold primarily to companies bottling soft drinks such as Coca-Cola, Dr. Pepper, Pepsi Cola, Royal Crown Cola and Seven-Up.
The Company uses steel as a basic raw material in its manufacturing processes in addition to purchased motors, compressors and other components made of copper, aluminum, rubber and plastic. These materials are supplied by established sources and the Company anticipates that such sources will, in general, be able to meet its future requirements.
The Company holds a number of patents which are important in the manufacture of its products. The Company holds a DIXIE-NARCO trademark registration and its associated corporate symbol.
Vending equipment sales, though stronger in the first six months of the year, are considered by the Company to be essentially nonseasonal.
The Company's vending equipment segment is dependent upon a few major soft drink suppliers. Therefore, the loss of one or more of these customers could have a material adverse effect on this segment. The Company manufactures and sells its vending machines in competition with a small number of other manufacturers and is the major manufacturer of such equipment. The principal methods of competition utilized by the vending equipment segment are product quality, customer service, delivery, warranty and price. Positive factors pertaining to the Company's competitive position include product design, manufacturing efficiency and superior service, while new product innovations by competitors and severe price competition negatively impact its position.
The dollar amount of backlog orders of the Company is not considered significant for vending equipment in relation to the total annual dollar volume of sales. Because it is the Company's practice to maintain a level of inventory sufficient to cover shipments and since orders are generally shipped upon receipt, a large backlog would be unusual.
Although the Company has manufacturing sites with environmental concerns, compliance with laws and regulations regarding the discharge of materials into the environment or relating to the protection of the environment has not had a material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or the Company's competitive position. The scheduled phase-out of chlorofluorocarbons ("CFCs', an aerosol propellant and refrigerant) by the mid-1990s, mandated by government standards, will also not affect the production technology in the vending equipment industry. This has not had a significant impact on current operations, and it is anticipated that the industry and the Company will meet all final standards.
The number of employees of the Company within the vending equipment segment as of December 31, 1993 was 1,136.
Item 2.



Item 2. Properties.
The Company's corporate headquarters is located in Newton, Iowa. Major offices and manufacturing facilities in the United States related to the home appliances segment are located at: Galesburg, Illinois; Jackson, Tennessee; Indianapolis, Indiana; Cleveland, Tennessee; Herrin, Illinois; Newton, Iowa; North Canton, Ohio; and El Paso, Texas. Maytag Customer Service, which is located in Cleveland, Tennessee, operates an automated national parts distribution center in Milan, Tennessee which services all of the Company's appliance brands, except Hoover. In addition to manufacturing facilities in the United States, the Company has three other North American manufacturing facilities located in Canada and Mexico. The Company also has five manufacturing facilities outside North America in Australia, Portugal and the United Kingdom. A sixth manufacturing facility in Dijon, France was closed in 1993. Major facilities related to the vending equipment segment are: Dixie-Narco, Inc., with offices and manufacturing facilities located in
Williston, South Carolina and Eastlake, Ohio.
The manufacturing facilities are well maintained, suitably equipped and in good operating condition. The facilities used in the production of home appliances and vending equipment had sufficient capacity to meet production needs in 1993, and the Company expects that such capacity will be adequate for planned production in 1994. The Company's 1993 capital expenditures and the planned 1994 capital expenditures include an ongoing program of product improvements and enhanced manufacturing efficiencies.
The Company also owns or leases sales offices in many large metropolitan areas throughout the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and Western Europe. Lease commitments were not material at December 31, 1993.
Item 3.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
The Company is involved in contractual disputes, environmental, administrative and legal proceedings and investigations of various types. Although any litigation, proceeding or investigation has an element of uncertainty, the Company believes that the outcome of any proceeding, lawsuit or claim which is pending or threatened, or all of them combined, will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position.
Item 4.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The Company did not submit any matters to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 1993 through a solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. _____________________________________________________________________________ COMPARISON OF 1993 WITH 1992 The Company operates in two business segments, home appliances and vending equipment. The operations of the home appliance segment represented 95.0 percent of net sales in 1993 and 1992. Consolidated net sales decreased 1.8 percent in 1993 compared to 1992. Although sales volumes in the United States increased due to improved consumer confidence, the overall decline in sales resulted from a decrease in European sales, less favorable currency conversions of sales outside the United States, and the absence of sales from the microwave oven operation that was sold in June 1992. North American home appliance sales increased 3.1 percent in spite of the absence of sales from the microwave oven operation. European sales decreased 22.1 percent from 1992 due to less favorable currency conversions and lower sales volumes due to some market share declines. Lower sales volumes in Europe are expected in 1994 compared to 1993. Sales in the Company's vending equipment segment declined 5.3 percent from 1992 due to slow economic activity in Europe, cutbacks by domestic bottlers and increased competition. Gross profit as a percent of sales increased to 24.2 percent from 23.1 percent in 1992. The increase in margins resulted principally from improvements in the North American Appliance Group. The improvement in the North American Appliance Group was primarily due to production efficiencies, reductions of certain employee-related costs and some selective price increases. In addition, 1992 results for the North American Appliance Group included plant start-up costs. Gross margins in Hoover Europe declined primarily due to operating inefficiencies associated with previously announced plans to close a factory in Dijon, France and higher pension costs. Vending equipment margins improved in 1993 due to reductions in material, distribution and warranty costs from 1992. In 1994, although consolidated pension and postretirement medical costs are expected to increase due to a reduction in the discount rate assumption and lower pension assets, this is expected to be offset by other cost reductions. Selling, general and administrative (S,G&A) expenses decreased to 17.2 percent in 1993 from 17.4 percent in 1992. The decline was principally due to cost efficiencies resulting from the reorganization of the North American Appliance Group. Special charges consisted of a $50 million pretax charge in the first quarter of 1993 to cover anticipated additional costs associated with two "free flights" promotional programs in Europe and a $95 million pretax charge in the third quarter of 1992 for a reorganization of U.S. and European operations. Total pretax charges relating to the "free flights" promotion programs in 1993 were $60.4 million ($50 million in a special charge and $10.4 million in S,G&A) and in 1992 were $12.2 million. See the notes to the financial statements for a discussion of this matter. Offsetting a portion of the 1993 European "free flights" expenses in S,G&A was a $5 million reversal of excess reorganization reserves in Europe. Operating income for 1993 totaled $158.9 million compared to $78.6 million in 1992. Before special charges, operating income would have been $208.9 million or 7.0 percent of sales in 1993 compared to $173.6 million or 5.7 percent of sales in 1992. The decrease in the effective tax rate for 1993 was primarily due to the 1992 tax rate reflecting the impact of non-recoverable losses outside the
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued _____________________________________________________________________________ United States. The notes to the financial statements include a reconciliation between the statutory tax and the actual tax provided. Excluding special charges in 1993 and 1992 and the cumulative effect of accounting changes in 1992, net income would have been $81.3 million or $.76 per share in 1993 compared to net income of $65.4 million or $.62 per share in 1992. In November 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 112 (FAS 112), "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." The new rules require recognition of specified postemployment benefits provided to former or inactive employees, such as severance pay, workers' compensation, supplemental unemployment benefits, disability benefits and continuation of healthcare and life insurance coverages. The Company has estimated that the cumulative effect of adopting FAS 112, which will be recorded in the first quarter of 1994, will be between $.02-$.04 per share. The ongoing expenses associated with the adoption of the new rules are not expected to be material. _____________________________________________________________________________ COMPARISON OF 1992 WITH 1991 The Company operates in two business segments, home appliances and vending equipment. The operations of the home appliance segment represented 95.0 percent of net sales in 1992 and 1991. Effective January 1, 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 (FAS106) "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions." FAS 106 requires companies to recognize the cost of postretirement benefits over an employee's service period. The Company's previous practice had been to recognize these costs as claims were received. The one-time transitional cost for adopting FAS106 resulted in an aftertax charge of $222 million or $2.09 per share in the first quarter of 1992. FAS106 also resulted in an additional pretax charge of approximately $24 million in 1992. Implementation of FAS106 had no impact on cash flows and the Company continues to pay the cost of postretirement benefits as claims are received. Also effective January 1, 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (FAS109) "Accounting for Income Taxes." The adoption of FAS109 required a one-time aftertax charge of $85 million or $.80 per share. However, there was no cash flow impact of adopting the pronouncement since deferred taxes changed by a like amount. The one-time cumulative impact of adopting both FAS106 and FAS109 totaled $307 million or $2.89 per share. Consolidated net sales increased 2.4 percent in 1992 compared to 1991. The overall sales increase, although partially offset by lower prices, was due to market share gains in most product categories and increased volume as a result of improved consumer confidence in the United States. Sales of the Company's home appliances within North America increased 2.7 percent from 1991. While European sales were 1.3 percent higher in 1992 compared to 1991, the majority of the increase is due to favorable currency translation with volume remaining flat. The Company's vending sales increased 10.4 percent in 1992, primarily due to increased volume within the United States. Gross profit as a percent of sales decreased to 23.1 percent from 24.1 percent in 1991. The deterioration in margins was principally caused by additional expenses arising from the use of FAS106 as well as expenses related to a plant start-up, new product introductions and price reductions. Excluding FAS106 charges, gross profit as a percent of sales would have been 23.8 percent for 1992. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales and
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued _____________________________________________________________________________ before reorganization remained relatively level at 17.4 percent in 1992 and 17.7 percent in 1991. The slight decrease was caused primarily by increased sales in 1992. During the third quarter of 1992, the Company provided for the costs of reorganizing its North American and European operations. In North America, several manufacturing facilities are being realigned, effectively combining expertise in research, engineering and product development. In addition, sales forces were reorganized and streamlined. The Company was also implementing a centralized distribution and order system for its North American operations designed to enhance customer service and operational efficiency. The effort in Europe was aimed at downsizing production capacity and streamlining sales, marketing, administration and distribution activities. This special charge reduced income before income taxes by $95 million or $.70 per share after tax. Operating income for 1992 amounted to $78.6 million compared to $191.5 million in 1991. Before the special reorganization charge, 1992 operating income would have been $173.6 million or 5.7 percent of sales, down $17.9 million or 9.4 percent from 1991. The net operating loss of the Company's European operations in 1992 increased $66.2 million from 1991 primarily due to a provision of $55 million for reorganization expenses relating to plant closings and other organizational changes and the continuing recession in the United Kingdom. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the effect of non-recoverable losses outside of the United States. The notes to the financial statements contain a reconciliation between the statutory tax and the actual tax provided. Excluding the cumulative effect of accounting changes and reorganization expenses, for comparative purposes, net income would have been $65.4 million or $.62 per share compared to net income of $79 million or $.75 per share in 1991. _____________________________________________________________________________ LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash provided by operations in 1993 totaled $71.3 million compared to $183.1 million in 1992. The overall decrease resulted from the funding of expenditures relating to the reorganization of the North American and European operations, the Hoover Europe "free flights" promotions and working capital needs in the North American Appliance Group. Offsetting this decrease was a $42 million withdrawal from an over-funded pension plan in Europe and lower funding of an employee benefit trust. Current assets were 1.6 times current liabilities at December 31, 1993 and 1.8 times at December 31, 1992. Gross capital expenditures in 1993 were $99.3 million compared to $129.9 million in 1992. The expenditures in 1993 were mainly related to improvements in product design and manufacturing processes and increases in manufacturing capacity. Capital spending in 1992 was higher as it included major plant start-up projects. Planned capital expenditures for 1994 approximate $110 million and relate to ongoing production improvements and product enhancements. Depreciation expense increased to $102.5 million in 1993 from $94.0 million in 1992 resulting from major capital projects completed near the end of 1992.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - continued _____________________________________________________________________________ Significant investing and financing transactions related to capital expenditures, debt retirement and dividend payments were funded through operations and the issuance of $5.5 million in medium term notes and a $139.0 million increase in notes payable and commercial paper borrowings. The Company also reduced long term debt by $94.4 million during 1993. The Company has two credit facilities which support the Company's commercial paper program. Subject to certain exceptions, the credit agreements require the Company to maintain certain quarterly levels of consolidated tangible net worth, leverage ratios and interest coverage ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 1993 and expects to be in compliance with all covenants. The covenants become more stringent commencing in the first quarter of 1994. Additional funds available at December 31, 1993 under all credit agreements, applying the terms of the most restrictive covenant above, totaled $243 million. Dividend payments in both 1993 and 1992 amounted to $53 million or $.50 per share. Dividends amounted to nine percent of average shareowners' equity in 1993 and seven percent in 1992. Any funding requirements for future capital expenditures and other cash requirements in excess of cash generated from operations will be supplemented with issuance of debt securities and bank borrowings.
_____________________________________________________________________________ IMPACT OF INFLATION The Company uses the LIFO method of accounting for approximately 79 percent of its inventories. Under this method, the cost of sales reported in the financial statements approximates current costs. The charges to operations for depreciation represent the allocation of historical costs incurred over past years and are significantly less than if they were based upon current costs of productive capacity being consumed. Assets acquired in prior years will, of course, be replaced at higher costs but this will take place over several years. New higher-cost assets will result in higher depreciation charges, but in many cases due to technological improvements, there will be operating cost savings as well.

Shareowners and Board of Directors Maytag Corporation
We have audited the accompanying statements of consolidated financial condition of Maytag Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of consolidated income and consolidated cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and related schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and related schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Maytag Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in notes to consolidated financial statements, in 1992 the Company changed its method of accounting for postretirement benefits other than pensions and income taxes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
______________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Certain subsidiaries located outside the United States are consolidated as of a date one month earlier than subsidiaries in the United States. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Exchange rate fluctuations from translating the financial statements of subsidiaries located outside the United States into U.S. dollars and exchange gains and losses from designated foreign currency transactions are recorded in a separate component of shareowners' equity. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are included in income. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' financial statements to conform with the 1993 presentation.
Cash Equivalents: Highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased are considered by the Company to be cash equivalents.
Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for approximately 79% and 76% of the Company's inventories at December 31, 1993 and 1992. The remaining inventories, which are primarily outside the United States, are stated using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Intangibles: Intangibles principally represent goodwill, which is the cost of business acquisitions in excess of the fair value of identifiable net tangible assets. Goodwill is amortized over 40 years on the straight-line basis and the carrying value is reviewed annually. If this review indicates that goodwill will not be recoverable as determined based on the undiscounted cash flows of the entity acquired over the remaining amortization period, the Company's carrying value of the goodwill will be reduced by the estimated shortfall of cash flows.
Income Taxes: Certain expenses (principally related to accelerated tax depreciation, employee benefits and various other accruals) are recognized in different periods for financial reporting and income tax purposes.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment is stated on the basis of cost. Depreciation expense is calculated principally on the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. The depreciation methods are designed to amortize the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives.
Short and Long-Term Debt: The carrying amounts of the Company's borrowings under its short-term revolving credit agreements, including multicurrency loans, approximate their fair value. The fair values of the Company's long- term debt are estimated based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

___________________________________________________________________________ PENSION BENEFITS The Company and its subsidiaries have noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering most employees. Plans covering salaried and management employees generally provide pension benefits that are based on an average of the employee's earnings and credited service. Plans covering hourly employees generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. The Company's funding policy is to contribute amounts to the plans sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements.
A summary of the components of net periodic pension expense (income) for the defined benefit plans is as follows:
Year ended December 31 -------------------------------- In thousands 1993 1992 1991 --------- ---------- --------- Service cost--benefits earned during the period $ 24,067 $ 21,469 $ 23,520 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 90,322 87,654 85,325 Actual return on plan assets (167,539) (87,263) (141,918) Net amortization and deferral 59,315 (25,239) 23,602 --------- --------- --------- Net pension expense (income) $ 6,165 $ (3,379) $ (9,471) ========= ========= ========= The change in pension expense (income) from 1992 to 1993 resulted from pension benefit improvements, a reduction in the discount rate and lower expected return on assets resulting from lower asset values at the beginning of the year.
Assumptions used in determining net periodic pension expense (income) for the defined benefit plans in the United States were:
1993 1992 1991 ---- ---- ---- Discount rates 8.5% 9% 9% Rates of compensation increase 6 6 6 Expected long-term rates of return on assets 9.5 9.5 9.5
For the valuation of pension obligations at the end of 1993 and for determining pension expense in 1994, the discount rate and rate of compensation increase have been decreased to 7.5% and 5.0% respectively. Assumptions for defined benefit plans outside the United States are comparable to the above in all periods. As of December 31, 1993, approximately 87% of the plan assets are invested in listed stocks and bonds. The balance is invested in real estate and short term investments. Certain pension plans in the United States provide that in the event of a change of Company control and plan termination, any excess funding may be used only to provide pension benefits or to fund retirees' health care benefits. The use of all pension assets for anything other than providing employee benefits is either limited by legal restrictions or subject to severe taxation. The following table sets forth the funded status and amounts recognized in the statements of consolidated financial condition for the Company's defined benefit pension plans:
Pension investments above of approximately $104 million and $142 million at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and pension income of $5.4 million, $10.9 million and $7.1 million in 1993, 1992 and 1991 relate to pension plans covering employees in Europe. In 1993 and 1992, the Company recorded $4.9 million and $4.5 million, respectively, to recognize the minimum pension liability required by the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions." The transaction, which had no effect on income, was offset by recording an intangible asset of an equivalent amount.
____________________________________________________________________________ POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company provides postretirement health care and life insurance benefits for its employees in the United States. Most of the postretirement plans are contributory, and contain certain other cost sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. The plans are unfunded. Employees are not vested and these benefits are subject to change. Death benefits for certain retired employees are funded as part of, and paid out of, pension plans. In 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," which requires employers to accrue the cost of such retirement benefits during the employee's service with the Company. Prior to 1992, the
cost of providing these benefits to retired employees was recognized as a charge to income as claims were received. The transition obligation of $355 million as of January 1, 1992 was recorded as a one-time charge in the first quarter of 1992 and reduced net income by $222 million or $2.09 per share. The ongoing effect of adopting the new standard increased 1993 and 1992 periodic postretirement benefit cost by $11.3 and $23.9 million respectively. Postretirement benefit costs in 1991 of approximately $11.7 million were recorded on a cash basis and have not been restated.
A summary of the components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost is as follows:
In thousands 1993 1992 ------- ------- Service cost $10,225 $ 8,258 Interest cost 26,939 30,421 Net amortization and deferral (8,228) 2,106 ------- ------- Net periodic postretirement benefit cost $28,936 $40,785 ======= ======= Postretirement benefit costs for 1993 decreased primarily due to a plan amendment to eligibility requirements.
Assumptions used in determining net periodic postretirement benefit cost were:
1993 1992 Health care cost trend rates (1): ---- ---- Current year 14% 15% Decreasing gradually to 6% 6% Until the year 2009 2009 Each year thereafter 6% 6% Discount rates 8.5% 9.0% (1) Weighted-average annual assumed rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered benefits.
For the valuation of the accumulated benefit obligation at December 31, 1993 and for determining postretirement benefit costs in 1994, the health care cost trend rates were decreased. This results in a health care cost trend rate of 12.5 percent in 1994, decreasing gradually to 6 percent until 2001 and remaining at that level thereafter. In addition, the discount rate was reduced to 7.5 percent. The health care cost trend rate assumption has a significant impact on the amounts reported. For example, increasing the assumed health care cost trend rates by one percentage point in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of December 31, 1993 by $43.6 million and the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for 1993 by $5.9 million. The following table presents the status of the plans reconciled with amounts recognized in the statements of consolidated financial condition for the Company's postretirement benefits.
December 31 ---------------- 1993 1992 In thousands ---- ---- Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation: Retirees $284,524 $189,764 Fully eligible active plan participants 58,709 60,236 Other active plan participants 56,465 76,587 -------- -------- 399,698 326,587 Unamortized plan amendment 54,248 62,476 Unrecognized net loss (62,311) (8,687) Postretirement benefit liability recognized in the -------- -------- the statements of consolidated financial condition $391,635 $380,376 ======== ======== __________________________________________________________________________ OTHER EMPLOYEE BENEFITS The Company has a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) for eligible United States employees. The ESOP is designed to fund the Company's contribution to an existing salaried savings plan. The Company made contributions to the plan of $5.5 million, $5.2 million and $4.9 million for loan payments in 1993, 1992 and 1991, the majority of which represents interest on the ESOP debt. With each loan and interest payment, a portion of the Common stock in the ESOP becomes available for allocation to participating employees. The Company also sponsors other defined contribution plans. Contributions to these plans are generally based on employees' compensation. Expenses of the Company related to these plans, including the ESOP, amounted to $8.6 million in 1993, $7.9 million in 1992 and $7.8 million in 1991. In November 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 112 (FAS 112), "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits." The new rules require recognition of specified postemployment benefits provided to former or inactive employees, such as severance pay, workers' compensation, supplemental employment benefits, disability benefits and continuation of healthcare and life insurance coverages. The Company has estimated the cumulative effect of adopting FAS 112, which will be recorded in the first quarter of 1994, will not have a material impact on the annual results for 1994. The ongoing expenses associated with the new statement are not expected to be material.
______________________________________________________________________________ ACCRUED LIABILITIES In thousands 1993 1992 ------ ------ Warranties $ 46,281 $ 50,877 Advertising/sales promotion 51,946 30,054 Other 79,788 99,963 ------ ------ $178,015 $180,894 ======= ======= ______________________________________________________________________________ INCOME TAXES Effective January 1, 1992, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Prior to 1992, the provision
for income taxes was based on income and expenses included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. As permitted under the new rules, prior years' financial statements have not been restated. The cumulative effect of adopting Statement 109 was to decrease net income by $85 million or $.80 per share as of January 1, 1992. At December 31, 1993, the Company has available for tax purposes approximately $177 million of net operating loss carryforwards outside the United States, of which $38 million expire in various years through 1999 and $139 million is available indefinitely. Of this amount, $30 million relates to pre-acquisition net operating losses which will be used to reduce intangibles when utilized. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1993 and 1992 are as follows:
In thousands 1993 1992 ---------- --------- Deferred tax assets (liabilities): Tax over book depreciation $(118,973) $(116,725) Postretirement benefit obligation 151,424 143,197 Product warranty accruals 20,021 20,221 Pensions and other employee benefits (38,753) (58,704) Reorganization accrual 8,856 23,586 Net operating loss carryforwards 48,817 23,178 Other 14,937 15,812 --------- --------- 86,329 50,565 Less valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (15,957) (15,873) --------- --------- Net deferred tax assets $ 70,372 $ 34,692 Recognized in statements of consolidated ========= ========= financial condition: Deferred tax assets-current $ 46,695 $ 52,261 Deferred tax assets-noncurrent 68,559 71,442 Deferred tax liabilities (44,882) (89,011) --------- --------- Net deferred tax assets $ 70,372 $ 34,692 ========= ========= Income (loss) before income taxes and cumulative effect of accounting changes consists of the following: Year ended December 31 ------------------------------- In thousands 1993 1992 1991 ------- ------ ------ United States $162,554 $ 80,013 $112,988 Non-United States (72,684) (72,467) 10,429 ------- ------- ------- $ 89,870 $ 7,546 $123,417 ======= ======= =======

Since the Company plans to continue to finance expansion and operating requirements of subsidiaries outside the United States through reinvestment of the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries (approximately $81 million at December 31, 1993), taxes which would result from distribution have not been provided on such earnings. If such earnings were distributed, additional taxes payable would be significantly reduced by available tax credits arising from taxes paid outside the United States. Income taxes paid, net of refunds received, during 1993, 1992 and 1991 were $68.3 million, $28.5 million, and $34.5 million, respectively.
______________________________________________________________________________ LONG-TERM DEBT AND NOTES PAYABLE In thousands The following sets forth the long-term debt in the statements of consolidated financial condition: 1993 1992
Notes payable with interest payable semiannually: Due May 15, 2002 at 9.75% $200,000 $200,000 Due July 15, 1999 at 8.875% 175,000 175,000
Due July 1, 1997 at 8.875% 100,000 100,000 Medium-term notes, maturing from 1994 to 2010, from 7.69% to 9.03% with interest payable semiannually 177,750 197,250 Employee stock ownership plan notes payable semiannually through July 2, 2004 at 9.35% 59,129 60,307 Multicurrency loans at 5.4% to 9.475% 63,631 Other 31,321 36,463 --------- -------- 743,200 832,651 Less current portion 18,505 43,419 --------- -------- $724,695 $789,232 ========= ======== The 9.75% notes, the 8.875% notes due in 1999 and the medium-term notes grant the holders the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any portion of their notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest, following the occurrence of both a change in Company control and a credit rating decline. The Company has established a trust to administer a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) within an existing employee savings plan. The Company has guaranteed the debt of the trust and will service the repayment of the notes, including interest, through the Company's employee savings plan contribution and from the quarterly dividends paid on stock held by the ESOP. Dividends paid by the Company on stock held by the ESOP totaled $1.4 million in 1993, 1992 and 1991. The ESOP notes are secured by the Common stock owned by the ESOP trust. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, based on public quotes if available, exceeded the amount recorded in the statements of consolidated financial condition at December 31, 1993 and 1992 by $83.7 million and $50 million, respectively. Notes payable at December 31, 1993 and 1992 consisted of notes payable to banks, in addition to $112 million in commercial paper borrowings at December 31, 1993. The Company's commercial paper program is supported by two credit agreements totaling $300 million, which were entered into on June 25, 1993. The $100 million agreement expires June 24, 1994 and the $200 million agreement expires June 25, 1996. Subject to certain exceptions, the credit agreements require the Company to maintain certain quarterly levels of consolidated tangible net worth, leverage ratios and interest coverage ratios. At December 31, 1993, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. Additional funds available at December 31, 1993 under all credit agreements, applying the terms of the most restrictive covenant, totaled $243 million. Interest paid during 1993, 1992 and 1991 was $76.2 million, $77.4 million, and $78.4 million. The aggregate maturities of long-term debt in each of the next five fiscal years is as follows (in thousands): 1994- $18,505; 1995-$45,185; 1996-$5,308; 1997-$106,535; 1998-$7,147.
______________________________________________________________________________ STOCK PLANS In 1992, the shareowners approved the 1992 stock option plan for executives and key employees. The plan provides that options could be granted to key employees for not more than 3.6 million shares of the Common stock of the Company. The option price under the plan is the fair market value at the date of the grant. Options may not be exercised until one year after the date granted. Under the Company's 1986 plan which expired in 1991, options to purchase 1.6 million shares of Common stock were granted at the market value at the date of grant. Some options were also granted under this plan with stock appreciation rights (SAR) which entitle the employee to surrender the right to receive up to one-half of the shares covered by the option and to receive a cash payment equal to the difference between the option price and the market value of the shares being surrendered. Under a plan which expired in 1986, options to purchase 800,000 shares of Common stock were granted at the market value at date of grant. In April 1990, the Company's shareowners approved the Maytag Corporation 1989 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors which authorizes the issuance of up to 250,000 shares of Common stock to the Company's non-employee directors. Options under this plan are immediately exercisable upon grant.
The following is a summary of certain information relating to these plans:

In 1991, the shareowners approved the 1991 Stock Incentive Award Plan For Key Executives. This plan authorizes the issuance of up to 2.5 million shares of Common stock to certain key employees of the Company, of which 1,980,338 shares are available for future grants as of December 31, 1993. Under the terms of the plan, the granted stock vests three years after the award date and is contingent upon pre-established performance objectives. In the event of a change in Company control, all incentive stock awards become fully vested. No incentive stock awards may be granted under this plan on or after May 1, 1996. Incentive stock award shares outstanding at December 31, 1993 under a 1993
grant total 459,957, and $3.6 million has been expensed during 1993 for the the anticipated payout on these awards.

______________________________________________________________________________ SHAREOWNERS' EQUITY
The Company has 24 million authorized shares of Preferred stock, par value $1 per share, none of which is issued. Pursuant to a Shareholder Rights Plan approved by the Company in 1988, each share of Common stock carries with it one Right. Until exercisable, the Rights will not be transferable apart from the Company's Common stock. When exercisable, each Right will entitle its holder to purchase one one-hundredth of a share of Preferred stock of the Company at a price of $75. The Rights will only become exercisable if a person or group acquires 20% or more of the Company's Common stock which may be reduced to not less than 10% at the discretion of the Board of Directors. In the event the Company is acquired in a merger or 50% or more of its consolidated assets or earnings power are sold,
each Right entitles the holder to purchase Common stock of either the surviving or acquired company at one-half its market price. The Rights may be redeemed in whole by the Company at a purchase price of $.01 per Right. The Preferred shares will be entitled to 100 times the aggregate per share dividend payable on the Company's Common stock and to 100 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of shareowners. The Rights expire May 2, 1998. ______________________________________________________________________________ INDUSTRY SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION Principal financial data by industry segment is as follows:

The amount of exchange gain or loss included in operations in any of the years presented was not material. In 1993 the Company incurred $60.4 million in pretax charges for two "free flights" promotion programs in Europe ($50 million in a special charge and $10.4 million in selling, general and administrative expenses). In 1992 the Company incurred $95 million of reorganization expenses for marketing and distribution changes in North America and plant closings and other organizational changes in Europe. Of the $95 million allocated to Home Appliances, $40 million was allocated to North America and $55 million to Europe.
_____________________________________________________________________________ CONTINGENT LIABILITIES In 1993 and 1992, the Company made provisions to cover the cost of two Hoover Europe "free flights" promotion programs, including a $50 million special charge in the first quarter of 1993. The promotions began in August, 1992 and included qualified purchases through January, 1993. The terms of the promotions require all flights to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 1994. The Company believes that it has made adequate provisions for any costs to be incurred relating to these promotions. Although the final costs of the promotions cannot be determined at this time, management does not believe that any additional costs that may be incurred will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. At December 31, 1993, the Company is contingently liable for guarantees of indebtedness owed by a third party ("the borrower") of $21.3 million relating to the sale of one of its manufacturing facilities in 1992. The borrower is performing under the payment terms of the loan agreement; however, it had been out of compliance with certain financial covenants at December 31, 1993 for which it has requested a waiver from the lender involved. The indebtedness is collateralized by the assets of the borrower. Other contingent liabilities arising in the normal course of business, including guarantees, repurchase agreements, pending litigation, environmental issues, taxes and other claims are not considered to be material in relation to the Company's financial position.
