Item 1. Business
(a) General Development of Business
Premark International, Inc. (the "Registrant") is a multinational consumer and commercial products company. The Registrant is a Delaware corporation which was organized on August 29, 1986 in connection with the corporate reorganization of Kraft, Inc. ("Kraft"). In the reorganization, the businesses of the Registrant and certain other assets and liabilities of Kraft and its subsidiaries were transferred to the Registrant. On October 31, 1986 the Registrant became a publicly held company through the pro-rata distribution by Kraft to its shareholders of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Registrant.
The Registrant's principal operating subsidiaries are Dart Industries Inc. ("Dart"), which owns the operating subsidiaries comprising the Registrant's Tupperware business; Premark FEG Corporation, which owns the operating subsidiaries comprising the Registrant's Food Equipment Group; Ralph Wilson Plastics Company ("Ralph Wilson Plastics"); The West Bend Company ("West Bend"); Florida Tile Industries, Inc. ("Florida Tile"); Tibbals Flooring Co. ("Tibbals Flooring"); and Precor Incorporated ("Precor"). Dart was organized in Delaware in 1928 as a successor to a business originally established in 1902. Tupperware U.S., Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed in 1989 which operates the U.S. Tupperware business. In 1988, Ralph Wilson Plastics and West Bend were organized in Delaware as separate corporations owned directly by the Registrant, having previously been operating divisions of Dart. Premark FEG Corporation was organized in Delaware in 1984, a successor to a business originally incorporated in 1897. Florida Tile, a Florida corporation organized in 1954, was acquired in 1990. Tibbals Flooring, acquired in 1988, was organized in Tennessee in 1946. Precor, a Delaware corporation, was acquired in 1984.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments
For certain financial information concerning the Registrant's business segments, see Note 10 ("Segments of the Business") of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of Premark International, Inc., appearing on pages 38 and 39 of the Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 25, 1993, which is incorporated by reference into this Report by Item 8 hereof.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
The Registrant conducts its business through its three business segments: Tupperware, Food Equipment Group, and Consumer and Decorative Products. A discussion of the three business segments follows. Words appearing in italics constitute trademarks and tradenames utilized by the Registrant's businesses.
TUPPERWARE
Principal Products, Markets and Distribution
Tupperware manufactures and markets a broad line of highest- quality plastic consumer products for the kitchen, gifts and children's products. Important products include Bell tumblers, Modular Mates stackable storage containers, Wonderlier and Servalier bowls, Tuppertoys educational toys, One Touch canisters, and Tupperwave microwave cookware. The containers and canisters both feature highly successful Tupperware seals.
During 1993, Tupperware continued to introduce new designs and colors in its products lines, and to extend existing products into new markets around the world. Tupperware also continued a major design upgrade program in its U.S. product line, which was launched in 1991.
Beginning in 1989, a number of U.S. franchisees converted to the Tupperware Express product delivery system, under which Tupperware products are shipped directly from the plant to the ultimate consumer. Prior to Tupperware Express, all franchisees warehoused an inventory of Tupperware products for resale to their consultants, who in turn were responsible for coordinating delivery to the ultimate consumers. Under Tupperware Express, there are presently 95 franchisees who process the orders of their sales consultants for direct shipment and no longer are required to maintain an inventory of Tupperware products. High shipping and administrative costs have adversely affected Tupperware Express. Tupperware is continuing to test alternatives in the distribution network.
In fiscal years 1993, 1992, and 1991, Tupperware contributed approximately 40%, 38% and 38%, respectively, of the sales of the Registrant's businesses. Tupperware products are sold in the United States and in 55 foreign countries. In 1993, sales in foreign countries represented approximately 81% of total Tupperware revenues. Although Tupperware's international distribution system is similar to that of its domestic operations, international product lines vary. Market penetration varies significantly throughout the world, with the highest levels occurring in Germany and Australia.
Tupperware products are sold directly to the consumer through over 500,000 dealers (called "consultants" in the U.S.) worldwide, over 25% of which are considered active. Consultants are supported by over 32,000 unit managers and approximately 1,400 distributors or franchisees. All of such distributors and franchisees, and the vast majority of consultants, dealers and managers, are independent contractors. The dealer force continued to increase overall in 1993.
Tupperware primarily relies on the "party plan" method of sales, which is designed to enable the purchaser to appreciate through demonstration the features and benefits of Tupperware products. Approximately 1.9 million parties and product demonstrations were held in 1993 in the United States, with millions more held in foreign countries. Parties are held in homes, offices, social clubs and other locations. Tupperware products are also being marketed through preview catalogs mailed to persons invited to attend parties and various other types of demonstrations. Sales of Tupperware products are supported through a program of sales promotions, sales and training aids and motivational conferences. Tupperware U.S. also utilizes catalogs and toll-free telephone ordering, which increases its success with hard-to-reach customers, in support of its sales force.
Raw Materials and Facilities
The manufacture of Tupperware products requires plastic resins meeting Tupperware's specifications. These resins are purchased from a number of large chemical companies, and Tupperware has experienced no difficulties in obtaining adequate supplies. Tupperware's headquarters are in Florida. Tupperware's domestic manufacturing plant (which is owned) is located in South Carolina. In 1993, Tupperware ceased manufacturing operations at its Halls, Tennessee facility, eliminating excess capacity in the United States. Fourteen additional manufacturing plants (one of which is leased) are located in 14 foreign countries. Tupperware conducts a continuing program of new product design and development at its research and development facilities in Florida, Hong Kong and Belgium. Research and development of resins used in Tupperware products are performed by its suppliers.
Competition
The Registrant believes that Tupperware holds approximately 65% of the U.S. market for plastic storage and serving containers. Tupperware products compete with a broad range of food preparation, cooking, storage and serving items made of various materials, which are sold primarily through retail outlets. Tupperware's competitive strategy is to provide high-quality products at premium prices through a direct-selling distribution system. Direct selling, featuring demonstration of its products prior to purchase, price, and new product development are significant factors affecting competition. Tupperware competes with other direct selling organizations for sales personnel and party dates.
FOOD EQUIPMENT GROUP
Principal Products, Markets and Distribution
The Food Equipment Group, composed primarily of Premark FEG Corporation and its operating subsidiaries (the "Group"), is a leading manufacturer of commercial equipment relating to food preparation, cooking, storage and cleaning. Its core products include warewashing equipment; food preparation machines, such as mixers, slicers, cutters, meat saws and grinders; weighing and wrapping equipment and related systems; baking and cooking equipment, such as ovens, ranges, fryers, griddles and broilers; and refrigeration equipment. Products are marketed under the trademarks Hobart, Stero, Vulcan, Wolf, Tasselli, Adamatic, Still and Foster.
Food equipment products are sold to the retail food industry, including supermarket chains, independent grocers, delicatessens, bakeries and convenience and other food stores, and to the foodservice industry, including independent restaurants, fast-food chains, hospitals, schools, hotels, resorts and airlines. Although historically the retail food market has grown at a faster pace than the larger foodservice industry, in 1993 this growth trend was reversed.
Food equipment products are distributed in more than 100 countries, either through wholly-owned subsidiaries or through distributors, dealers or licensing arrangements covering virtually all areas of the world where a market for such products currently exists. The Group is the only major food equipment manufacturer in the U.S. with its own nationwide service network for the markets in which it sells, providing not only an important source of income but also an important source for developing new sales. The Group directly services its food machines, warewashers, weigh/wrap equipment and cooking equipment, while authorized independent agents service refrigeration units and some cooking equipment.
For the fiscal years 1993, 1992, and 1991, sales by the Group contributed approximately 32%, 36%, and 36%, respectively, of the sales of the Registrant's businesses. Revenues from foreign operations constituted approximately 40% of the Group's 1993 sales. Major new products introduced by the Group in 1993 included a new undercounter warewasher, a new line of fryers and the Ultima 2000 weighing system in the U. S., as well as a new concept mixer, a new line of warewashers, a new refrigeration line and a new line of combi steam ovens in Europe.
Raw Materials and Facilities
The Group uses stainless and carbon steel, aluminum and plastics in the manufacture of its products. These materials are readily available from several sources, and no difficulties have been experienced with respect to their availability. In addition to manufacturing certain component parts, the Group also purchases many component parts, including electrical and electronic components, castings, hardware, fasteners and bearings, certain manufacturers of which utilize tooling provided by the Group.
The Group owns its headquarters building and a major manufacturing complex consisting of four plants in Ohio. In addition, the Group operates 13 manufacturing plants in California, Georgia, Kansas, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, and Virginia, and nine manufacturing plants in Canada, France, Italy, the United Kingdom and Germany. Most of these plants are owned.
Competition
The Group competes in a slowly growing worldwide market which is highly fragmented. No single manufacturer competes with respect to all of the Group's products, and the degree of competition varies among different customer segments and products. The extensiveness of the Group's brand acceptance across a broad range of products is deemed by the Registrant to be a significant competitive advantage. Competition is also based on numerous other factors, including product quality, performance and reliability, labor savings and energy conservation.
Miscellaneous
The Group grants extended payment terms to end-user customers who meet its creditworthiness requirements. Currently, payment periods range from three to 36 months, with installments including finance charges. The Group also grants extended payment terms to dealers who meet specified creditworthiness and facility requirements, which allow its products to be on display at the dealerships or to be available for immediate delivery by the dealer to end-users. Payments to the Group by such dealers are generally without interest and are made at the earlier of the date of final sale or up to six months after delivery to the dealer.
The Group had approximately $99 million and $102 million of backlog orders at the end of 1993 and 1992, respectively, after restatement for exchange rate effects. The Group considers such orders to be firm, though changes or cancellations of insignificant amounts may occur, and expects that the 1993 backlog orders will be filled in 1994.
CONSUMER AND DECORATIVE PRODUCTS
Consumer and Decorative Products is comprised of the Decorative Products Group and the Consumer Products Group, which contributed 28%, 26% and 26% of the sales of the Registrant's businesses for the fiscal years 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Ralph Wilson Plastics, Florida Tile and Tibbals Flooring make up the Decorative Products Group, while the Consumer Products Group contains West Bend and Precor.
DECORATIVE PRODUCTS GROUP
Principal Products, Markets and Distribution
Ralph Wilson Plastics manufactures decorative laminates through a production process utilizing heated high pressure presses. These laminates, sold principally under the Wilsonart trademark in more than 550 colors, designs and finishes, are used for numerous interior surfacing applications, including cabinetry, countertops, vanities, store fixtures and furniture. Approximately 50% of the Wilsonart brand decorative laminate sold is used in residential applications, primarily for surfacing kitchen and bathroom countertops and cabinetry. Decorative laminate applications in the commercial market include office furniture, retail store fixtures, restaurant and hotel furniture, and doors. Ralph Wilson Plastics also manufactures specialty- grade laminates, including chemical-resistant, wear-resistant, and fire-retardant types. Among the specialized applications for Wilsonart brand laminates are those in laboratory work surfaces, jetways and naval vessels. In addition to laminate products, Ralph Wilson Plastics manufactures a solid surface product which is marketed under the Gibraltar brand. In 1993, Ralph Wilson Plastics added approximately 17 new designs to its laminate product line and 16 new designs to its line of Gibraltar solid surfacing products.
The company also produces and/or sells contact adhesives under the Lokweld trademark, metallic surfacings, and decorative edge molding for countertops and furniture.
Wilsonart brand decorative products are sold throughout the United States through wholesale building material distributors and directly to original equipment manufacturers. Export sales are now made to Japan, Ireland, Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea and Singapore.
Florida Tile manufactures glazed ceramic wall and floor tile products in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, colors and finishes, which are suitable for residential and commercial uses. Tile products are marketed under the Florida Tile trademark through company-owned and independent distributors. Major product groups of Florida Tile are marketed under the trademarks Natura and Artura. Products are exported to Canada, the Caribbean Basin, Iceland, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Pacific Rim nations. Florida Tile also imports foreign-produced tile products to meet the growing demand for low to mid-priced products.
Tibbals Flooring manufactures and distributes high-quality, prefinished oak flooring for residential and commercial applications. Its flooring products are pre-cut parquet panels and laminated two and three-ply oak plank lineal flooring products, each of which is sold in a variety of colors and finishes. Tibbals Flooring also manufactures wood moldings, installation adhesives and a full line of proprietary floor care products to complement its line of oak flooring products. These products are marketed under the Hartco trademark to a nationwide network of wholesale floor covering distributors.
Raw Materials and Facilities
The manufacture of decorative laminates requires various raw materials, including kraft and decorative paper, overlays, and melamine and phenolic resins. Each of these items is available from a limited number of manufacturers, but Ralph Wilson Plastics has not experienced difficulties in obtaining sufficient quantities. The principal raw materials used in Florida Tile products are talc, stains, frit (ground glass) and clay, all of which are available to Florida Tile in sufficient quantities. The principal raw materials used in Tibbals Flooring's hardwood flooring products are Appalachian red and white oak, steel wire, and various chemicals. All such raw materials are readily available from many sources in sufficient quantities, but lumber supplies are at a premium price compared to prior years.
Ralph Wilson Plastics owns and operates three manufacturing facilities in Texas and North Carolina, giving it the largest decorative laminate production capacity in North America. Adhesives are produced at two plants located in Louisiana and Texas. Solid surfacing products are manufactured in one facility in Texas. Ralph Wilson Plastics has 14 regional distribution centers which are geographically dispersed throughout the United States. Stock items can be delivered in 24 hours, and non-stock items can be produced and delivered within 10 working days. Florida Tile manufactures products in three owned manufacturing plants located in Florida, Georgia, and Kentucky, and distributes its products through a network of company-owned and independent distribution outlets. Tibbals Flooring manufactures its products in an owned manufacturing facility in Tennessee and a leased facility in Kentucky.
Competition
Wilsonart brand products are sold in highly competitive markets in the United States. Ralph Wilson Plastics has approximately 47% of the U.S. market for decorative laminates. Ralph Wilson Plastics successfully competes with other companies by providing fast product delivery, offering a broad choice of colors, designs, and finishes, and emphasizing quality and service. Florida Tile competes with a number of other domestic and foreign tile manufacturers, and the Registrant believes Florida Tile is the third largest U.S. tile manufacturer. Foreign-manufactured products account for approximately 54% of the U.S. tile market. Important competitive factors in the tile market include price, style, quality, and service. Tibbals Flooring competes with a number of other domestic and foreign suppliers of prefinished wood flooring product, and estimates that it has a major share of this market. Important competitive factors include the fit, appearance and durability of the flooring products, the variety of finishes and colors, and the complementary molding, adhesive and floor care products.
Miscellaneous
The Decorative Products Group maintains a continuing program of product development. Its efforts emphasize product design, performance and durability, product enhancement, and new product applications, as well as manufacturing processes. Materials development for laminate products is generally performed by the companies providing those materials.
CONSUMER PRODUCTS GROUP
Principal Products, Markets and Distribution
West Bend manufactures and sells small electric appliances (such as electric skillets, slow cookers, woks, corn poppers, beverage makers and electronic timers) primarily under the West Bend trademark, and high-quality, direct-to-the-home stainless steel cookware. Precor manufactures physical fitness equipment, such as treadmills, stationary bicycles, low-impact climbers and ski machines marketed under the Precor trademark. During 1993, West Bend introduced an automatic breadmaker, a line of hand mixers and a food steamer. In 1993 Precor extended to its treadmill lines its Ergo Logic fitness software, which records and recalls personal exercise information for up to four people, and introduced a line of commercial treadmills featuring a low- impact bed to minimize stress to ankles and knees.
West Bend small appliances are sold primarily in the United States and Canada, directly to mass merchandisers, department stores, hardware stores, warehouse stores and catalog showrooms. West Bend's stainless steel cookware is sold to consumers through food preparation dinner parties and by other direct sales methods. Cookware is sold in 19 countries under 14 separate product lines. Precor equipment is sold primarily through specialty fitness equipment retail stores and high-end sporting goods and bicycle stores in the U.S. and Canada. In Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East, Precor products are sold through select distributors.
Raw Materials and Facilities
West Bend uses aluminum, stainless steel, plastic resins and other materials in the manufacture of its products. Precor uses steel, stainless steel, aluminum and other materials in the manufacture of its products. Generally, neither West Bend nor Precor has experienced any significant difficulties in obtaining any of these raw materials or products. West Bend owns and operates two manufacturing plants in Wisconsin and Mexico. Precor maintains three leased plants in Washington state.
Competition
Products sold by West Bend and Precor compete with products sold by numerous other companies of varying sizes in highly competitive markets. Important competitive factors include price, development of new products, product performance, warranties, and service.
Miscellaneous
West Bend's sales in the fourth quarter are significantly higher due to the gift-giving season. Precor's business is significantly higher in the first and fourth quarters, when winter weather forces more people to exercise indoors. The West Bend small appliance business is dependent upon two customers for approximately 33% of its revenues.
OTHER INFORMATION RELATING TO THE BUSINESS
Trademarks and Patents. The Registrant considers trademarks and patents to be of importance to its businesses. The Registrant's trademarks represent the leading brand names for most of its product lines. Its businesses have followed the practice of applying for patents with respect to most of the significant patentable developments and now own a number of patents relating to their products, including design patents covering Tupperware products. In certain cases the Registrant has elected common law trade secret protection in lieu of obtaining patent protection. In addition, exclusive and nonexclusive licenses under patents owned by others are utilized. No business is, however, dependent to any material extent upon any single patent or trade secret or group of patents or trade secrets.
Research and Development. For fiscal years ended 1993, 1992 and 1991, the Registrant spent approximately $41 million, $41 million and $31 million, respectively, on research and development activities.
Environmental Laws. Compliance by the Registrant's businesses with federal, state and local environmental protection laws has not in the past had, and is not expected to have in the future, a material effect upon its capital expenditures, liquidity, earnings or competitive position. The Registrant expects to expend approximately $1.1 million through 1995 on capital expenditures related to environmental facilities. In 1993, the Registrant had approximately $4 million of capital expenditures for environmental facilities, and approximately $3.7 million of remedial expenditures for environmental sites. See Item 3 for a further discussion of environmental matters.
Employees. The Registrant and its subsidiaries employ approximately 24,000 people. Approximately 18% of such employees are affiliated with one of the several unions with which the Registrant's subsidiaries have collective bargaining agreements. In recent years there has been no major effort to organize additional persons working for the Registrant's businesses, and there have been no significant work stoppages. The Registrant considers its relations with its employees to be good. The independent consultants, dealers, managers, distributors and franchisees engaged in the direct sale of Tupperware products are not employees of the Registrant.
Properties. The principal executive offices of the Registrant are located in Illinois and are leased. Most of the principal properties of the Registrant and its subsidiaries are owned, and none of the owned principal properties is subject to any encumbrance material to the consolidated operations of the Registrant. The Registrant considers the condition and extent of utilization of the plants, warehouses and other properties in its respective businesses to be generally good, and the capacity of its plants generally to be adequate for the needs of its businesses.
Miscellaneous. Except as disclosed above in the narrative descriptions of the Registrant's business segments, none of the Registrant's businesses are seasonal, have working capital practices or backlog conditions which are material to an understanding of their businesses, are dependent on a small number of customers, or are subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the election of the Federal Government.

Item 3.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Registrant and its subsidiaries are parties against which are pending a number of legal and administrative proceedings.

Certain of such proceedings involve Federal environmental laws such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as well as state and local laws. The Registrant establishes reserves with respect to certain of such sites. Because of the involvement of other parties and the uncertainty of potential environmental impacts, the eventual outcomes of such actions and the cost and timing of expenditures cannot be estimated with certainty. It is not expected that the outcome of such proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a materially adverse effect upon the Registrant's consolidated financial position or operations.
Kraft has assumed any liabilities arising out of any legal proceedings in connection with certain divested or discontinued former Dart businesses, including matters alleging product liability, environmental liability and infringement of patents.
