ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
Keystone International, Inc. ("Keystone" or the "Company") designs, manufactures and markets, on a worldwide basis, valves and other specialized industrial products that control the flow of liquids, gases and fibrous and slurry materials for use in various industries, including chemical, power, food and beverage, marine and government, petroleum production and refining, water, commercial construction, oil and gas pipeline, mining and metals, and pulp and paper. Keystone, incorporated in Texas in 1947, is one of the leading manufacturers of flow control products in the world.
The Company's operations are conducted in a single industry segment. For information concerning geographic segments, see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report.
Substantially all of the products sold outside the United States are manufactured and assembled at facilities in Canada, The Netherlands, Japan, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Germany, Korea, Singapore, the People's Republic of China, Mexico, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, and India. Most of Keystone's employees engaged in operations outside the United States, including plant managers and other executive personnel, are citizens of the nations in which they work. The various aspects of Keystone's operations outside the United States take into account local conditions and customs, but basic business methods are similar in all areas. Sales and operations outside the United States are subject to the inherent risk of fluctuations in currency rates.
As with other United States companies engaged in business outside the United States, Keystone is subject to political and economic uncertainties, the risk of expropriation and embargo, foreign exchange restrictions and political disruptions.
Keystone purchases virtually all castings and certain finished or semi-finished components used in its products. Machining of components and assembling are done primarily by the Company, although a limited amount of machining and assembling is done under contract by outside parties. Keystone does not believe that compliance with federal, state or local environmental laws adversely affects its business, earnings or competitive position.
Management believes that the Company's present level of product liability coverage is adequate, and will make adjustments in such coverage in the future as it believes appropriate after considering the cost and availability of such insurance and any legal developments in the product liability area.
While Keystone has a number of patents and patent applications relating to or covering certain features of its products, its patents are not of a scope to exclude competition in any significant way or preclude competitors from successfully marketing substitute products. Competition is on the basis of quality, service, delivery and price.
There was no single customer which accounted for more than 10% of sales during 1993. Although the Company does not necessarily know the intended use or ultimate customer for all of its products, particularly those sold through distributors, its business is not dependent on a single customer or a few customers. Sales in diverse geographic areas and to a large number of customers and industries lessen exposure to adverse conditions in a single industry or area. These factors, however, do not afford protection against a general economic downturn.
Keystone extends 30-day credit to most customers except in certain foreign markets where local trade practices differ. Credit losses have not been material. Keystone carries some inventory of all its products, and it generally satisfies its working capital requirements out of internally generated funds.
Reference is made to Note 5 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report for information about lines of credit that are available to finance working capital.
In the fourth quarter of 1991, the Company recognized a pretax charge to income of $22,372,000 for restructuring and merger expenses. For information concerning these charges, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report.
At December 31, 1993, the Company's backlog of unshipped orders was $100,268,000 compared with $107,853,000 at December 31, 1992. Orders in backlog at year-end are usually shipped during the following year. In the past, the effect of changes or cancellations of orders has been minimal.
At December 31, 1993, Keystone had approximately 4,200 employees worldwide.
ITEM 2.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
Keystone's domestic manufacturing operations are located in Houston and Harlingen, Texas; Blue Bell, Pennsylvania; Andrews and Fort Wayne, Indiana; Black Mountain, North Carolina; Penns Grove, New Jersey and Pelham, Alabama. These facilities, including the corporate offices located in Houston, contain approximately 309,000 square feet of office space and 810,000 square feet of manufacturing space on 165 acres of land owned by the Company. Keystone's other manufacturing and assembly facilities are in most cases owned by the Company and are located in 16 other countries. The Company also leases warehouse and office space in which it maintains its sales offices. Aggregate rentals for leased premises totalled $3,015,000 during 1993.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company is a party to routine litigation incidental to its business, none of which in the opinion of management will have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position or future results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
- ---------------
(1) After considering the estimated tax benefits of $5,235, the effect of restructuring and merger expenses was to reduce income from continuing operations by $17,137, or $.50 per share. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report.
(2) The 8.75% Notes totalling $43,000 were due November 1, 1993 and as of December 31, 1992 were classified as current portion of long-term debt. These 8.75% notes were refinanced on November 1, 1993 with $45,000 6.34% Senior Notes due November 1, 2000. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report.
(3) In 1991, the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle represents a charge relating to the adoption of the accounting standard for postretirements benefits other than pensions. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report. The 1993 cumulative effect of change in accounting principle represents a credit relating to the adoption of the new accounting standard for income taxes. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Report.

ITEM 7.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
SUMMARY
The following table sets forth for the periods indicated (i) percentages which certain items reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income bear to net sales of the Company and (ii) the percentage increase or decrease of amounts of such items as compared to the indicated prior period:
- ---------------
* Percentage not meaningful.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
Net Sales
Net sales decreased 2% in 1993 compared with a 2% increase in 1992. Shown below is an analysis of net sales. The translation effect of weakening foreign currencies had a significant impact in 1993 on the results of international operations.
- ---------------
* Percentage not meaningful.
The Company's sales and results of operations outside the United States are subject to the inherent risk of fluctuations in currency rates. During 1993, a basket of European currencies weakened in relation to the U.S. dollar by approximately 12%, which impacted the U.S. dollar results of the Company's European operations. Further weakening may occur in 1994. Keystone's European operations represent about 29% of the Company's consolidated sales.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales were 57.4%, 56.7% and 57.4% in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales in 1993 compared to 1992 was due to lower margins earned in Europe where the Company is experiencing increased price competition. In 1992, the improvement in gross profit as a percentage of sales compared to 1991 was primarily due to improvements in gross margins at the two Italian companies acquired in 1989 and a decrease in lower margin project-oriented business, reflective of more selective sales order activity.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 1% and 2% in 1993 and 1992, respectively. The increases are primarily attributable to costs related to increased sales volume primarily in the Asia-Pacific region, partially offset by the translation effect of weakening foreign currencies. The Company's ongoing program to maintain tight controls over selling, general and administrative expenses has resulted in maintaining the amount as a percentage of sales in the 28% range. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses were 28.9%, 28.1% and 27.9% in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
Restructuring and merger expenses in 1991 of $22,372 represent $19,993 accrued for operational restructuring primarily in the United States and Europe as well as $2,379 of expenses associated with the merger and rationalization of operations of Kunkle Industries, Inc. The Company's restructuring actions focus on strengthening its capabilities as a low-cost provider of quality flow control products and systems worldwide.
During 1993, the majority of the remaining restructuring and merger provision was utilized. Major restructuring and merger activities during 1993 related to the completion of the Houston, Texas-based product rationalization and relocation in which a facility was acquired in Guadalajara, Mexico and refurbished to accommodate the Company's manufacturing requirements. As part of this relocation, several small product lines were moved from Houston to this lower-cost facility. Other activities during the year included the consolidation of certain facilities primarily in European locations. The Company believes the remaining restructuring reserves, which are expected to be utilized during 1994, are sufficient to cover the restructuring projects which are still in process.
Other expense includes amortization of intangible assets and debt costs as well as exchange gains and losses on transactions denominated in foreign currencies. In 1992, other expense also included a reserve of $2,000 for management's estimate of potential environmental exposure at one of the Company's inoperative facilities. Management still believes this reserve is adequate and potential exposure will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or future results of operations.
The Company's effective income tax rate was 37%, 39% and 47% in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. The Company records taxes on all unremitted foreign earnings at a rate not less than the U.S. statutory rate. The primary components of the difference between the domestic statutory tax rate and the actual effective tax rate is caused by net operating losses of certain foreign entities not currently realizable for tax purposes and foreign taxes in excess of the U.S. statutory rate. The effective tax rate in 1993 includes the remeasurement of deferred tax assets at the current U.S. statutory rate in accordance with the new accounting standard for income taxes.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN SHAREHOLDERS' INVESTMENT FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993, 1992 AND 1991 (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
KEYSTONE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Keystone International, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Keystone" or the "Company"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Foreign Currency Translation -- Assets and liabilities of most foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, and related revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year. Since the functional currencies of these subsidiaries are not the U.S. dollar, the resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of shareholders' investment. Translation gains and losses relating to the Company's Brazilian subsidiary, which operates in a highly inflationary economy, are charged against income.
Cash Equivalents -- The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Depreciation and Amortization -- Keystone provides depreciation for financial reporting purposes primarily on a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Goodwill is included in other assets and is being amortized over periods ranging from ten to forty years. Other intangible assets, which primarily include engineering drawings, patents and tradenames, are being amortized over periods ranging from three to twenty years.
(2) ACQUISITIONS
During November 1991, the Company acquired Kunkle Industries, Inc. and an associated company ("Kunkle") in a transaction accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. As the effect of this acquisition was not significant to the results of operations of the Company, prior year financial statements were not restated.
Also, the Company has made other small acquisitions during 1993, 1992 and 1991. The total effect of these acquisitions was not material to the consolidated results of Keystone.
(3) RESTRUCTURING AND MERGER EXPENSES
Restructuring and merger expenses in 1991 of $22,372 represent $19,993 accrued for operational restructuring primarily in the United States and Europe as well as $2,379 of expenses associated with the merger and rationalization of operations of Kunkle. The Company's restructuring actions focus on strengthening its capabilities as a low-cost provider of quality flow control products and systems worldwide.
During 1993, the majority of the remaining restructuring and merger provision was utilized. Major restructuring and merger activities during 1993 related to the completion of the Houston, Texas-based product rationalization and relocation in which a facility was acquired in Guadalajara, Mexico and refurbished to accommodate the Company's manufacturing requirements. As part of this relocation, several small product lines were moved from Houston to this lower-cost facility. Other activities during the year included the consolidation of certain facilities primarily in European locations. The Company believes the remaining restructuring reserves, which are expected to be utilized during 1994, are sufficient to cover the restructuring projects which are still in process.
(4) INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at cost which is not in excess of market. Keystone uses the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of determining inventory cost for most of its domestic inventories. Inventories valued at LIFO cost comprised approximately 40% of consolidated inventories at December 31, 1993. The remainder of Keystone's inventories are costed using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
KEYSTONE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Inventories, which include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs, consisted of the following at December 31, 1993 and 1992:
(5) LONG-TERM DEBT AND SHORT-TERM BANK BORROWINGS
In November 1993, the Company refinanced its 8.75% notes totalling $43,000 with $45,000 6.34% Senior Notes due November 1, 2000. Other long-term notes payable at December 31, 1993 consists primarily of debt related to the construction of new manufacturing facilities in Japan and debt assumed in two 1989 Italian acquisitions which bear interest at weighted average interest rates of approximately 7% and 12%, respectively.
Annual maturities of all long-term debt for the next five years are as follows: 1994 -- $2,216; 1995 -- $6,718; 1996 -- $2,495; 1997 -- $1,905; 1998 -- $1,477; 1999 and thereafter -- $49,705.
Short-term bank borrowings of $6,944 at December 31, 1993 primarily represent borrowings under various committed and uncommitted lines of credit aggregating $61,000. Interest rates on these borrowings vary according to the country in which the funds are borrowed, but generally approximate the market rate of interest.
The Company made cash interest payments of $5,654, $6,849, and $7,853 during 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
(6) INCOME TAXES
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109 -- "Accounting for Income Taxes." This statement provides, among other things, for the recognition and presentation of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using the tax rates in effect during the period when taxes are actually paid or recovered. Accordingly, income tax provisions will increase or decrease in the same period in which a change in tax rates is enacted.
The adoption of this accounting method resulted in a credit to income of $1,879 which is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. The cumulative effect results primarily from calculating temporary differences using currently enacted tax rates as required. Prior year financial statements were not restated for SFAS No. 109.
KEYSTONE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
The provisions (benefits) for income taxes are summarized as follows:
The tax effects of the significant temporary differences which comprise the net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 1993 are as follows:
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Keystone has recorded no deferred tax assets for which a valuation reserve is required.
The major components in 1993 of the deferred tax provision include amounts related to temporary differences between financial and tax reporting methods for inventories of $1,387, reserves and accruals of $(1,859) and restructuring and merger expenses of $3,210. In 1992, the primary components of the deferred tax provision include amounts related to temporary differences between financial and tax reporting methods for inventories of $1,401, depreciation and amortization expense of $1,202 and restructuring and merger expenses of $2,256. In 1991, the primary components of the deferred tax benefit include amounts related to temporary differences between financial and tax reporting methods for inventories of $(1,378), reserves and accruals of $(2,992), unremitted foreign earnings of $(922), and restructuring and merger expenses of $(5,235).
KEYSTONE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
A reconciliation between the actual provision for income taxes and income taxes computed by applying the federal statutory rate follows:
The Company made cash tax payments, net of refunds, of approximately $20,651, $26,854 and $25,974 during 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
Income from continuing operations before income taxes of foreign subsidiaries was $36,215 in 1993, $43,982 in 1992, and $33,989, including $8,235 in restructuring expenses, in 1991.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has completed its examination of the Company's federal income tax returns for the years 1986 through 1988 and the Company has received an assessment of additional tax. Most issues have been resolved for these years, and the Company is vigorously pursuing administrative remedies for the remaining issues. In addition, the IRS is currently examining the federal income tax returns filed by the Company for the years 1989 and 1990. Management believes that any adjustment that may result from these examinations will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or future results of operations.
(7) SHAREHOLDERS' INVESTMENT
Incentive Stock Plans -- Keystone has a number of restricted stock grant and stock option plans which are incentive stock plans administered by a committee of outside directors for the benefit of the Company's key employees. As of December 31, 1993, 1,434 shares were available for award under these plans.
Shares issued under the stock grant plans are owned by the employees at the time of grant, subject to certain restrictions, principally continued employment with Keystone for a period to be set by the committee, typically five years. The deferred compensation expense related to the stock grants is being amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the period of time the stock is restricted, and the unamortized portion is classified as a reduction of shareholders' investment in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 1993, there were 309 shares as to which restrictions had not lapsed under the stock grant plans.
KEYSTONE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Stock options are issued at exercise prices which are not less than the fair market value at the date of grant. Information about Keystone's stock option plans for the three years ended December 31, 1993 is set forth below:
Shareholder Rights Plan -- In June 1990, the Company adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan and declared a dividend of one Depositary Preferred Share purchase right ("Right") for each share of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on July 2, 1990. Each Right entitles the shareholder to buy from the Company 1/1000 of a share of a new series of preferred stock at an exercise price of $80 per Right. The Board of Directors has authorized 900 preferred shares, designated as Preferred Shares -- Junior Participating Series A, for issuance upon exercise of such Rights. The Rights will not be exercisable unless a party acquires, or announces a tender offer for, beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the Company's Common Stock. The Rights may be redeemed by the Company at a price of $.001 per Right at any time prior to their expiration on March 31, 2000 or any earlier distribution of Rights certificates in accordance with the terms of the plan.
If a party acquires a 20% or more position in the Company, each Right, except those held by the acquiring party, will entitle its holder to purchase, at the exercise price, Depositary Preferred Shares having a value of two times the $80 exercise price, with each Depositary Preferred Share valued at the market price of a share of Common Stock. In the event the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction, each Right will entitle its holder to purchase, at the exercise price, that number of the acquiring company's common shares having a value of two times the exercise price of the Right.
(8) EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares used in computing earnings per share was 35,085, 34,902 and 34,676 in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. There is no significant difference between earnings per share on a primary and a fully diluted basis.
(9) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Defined Contribution and Benefit Plans -- Keystone has qualified and nonqualified profit sharing and stock bonus plans for employees of its domestic operations. Contributions to these plans, which may be in the form of cash or shares of the Company's stock, are based on a discretionary percentage (as approved by the Board of Directors) of pretax income before profit sharing and stock bonus contributions. Certain foreign subsidiaries and one domestic subsidiary also maintain retirement benefit plans for their employees.
KEYSTONE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Keystone's expenses related to these profit sharing, stock bonus and retirement benefit plans were $5,183 in 1993, $5,322 in 1992 and $5,010 in 1991.
Bonus Plan -- Keystone has incentive bonus plans for certain key employees. The amounts of such bonuses, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, were $5,851, $5,689, and $6,669 for 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
Postretirement Benefit Plans -- Effective January 1, 1991, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" on the immediate recognition basis. The standard requires that the cost of these benefits, primarily health care benefits, be recognized in the financial statements during the employee's service period. The Company controls its obligation for retiree health care by maintaining an unfunded, defined contribution plan for those domestic retirees with at least 25 years of service. Postretirement benefit expenses charged to operating income were $991, $899, and $832 for 1993, 1992, and 1991, respectively.
Other long-term liabilities included $9,678 and $8,885 at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively, related to the long-term obligation for postretirement benefits. Accrued liabilities included $175 at both December 31, 1993 and 1992 related to the current obligation for postretirement benefits.
(10) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation -- Keystone and its subsidiaries are engaged in various claims and litigation arising from their operations. In the opinion of management, uninsured losses, if any, resulting from these matters will not have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position or future results of operations of the Company.
Rental Expense -- Rental expense was $6,322, $6,348, and $6,114 for 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. The Company has entered into various leases, including an insignificant amount of capital leases, which provide for future minimum lease payments as follows: 1994 -- $5,429; 1995 -- $3,129; 1996 -- $1,351; 1997 -- $749; 1998 -- $329; 1999 and thereafter $2,755.
Letters of Credit -- At December 31, 1993 and 1992, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $4,949 and $5,288, respectively.

(12) INDUSTRY AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA INFORMATION
Industry Segments -- Keystone operates in one dominant industry segment which involves the design, manufacture and marketing of flow control products.
Geographic Segments -- Keystone's export sales, other than those intercompany sales reported below as sales between geographic areas, are not significant. Sales between geographic areas consist of sales of finished products, raw materials and unfinished products which are sold at adjusted market prices. Keystone does not derive more than 10% of its revenue from any single customer. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash, certificates of deposit and other assets.
Keystone's geographic area data for each of the three years ended December 31, 1993 are as follows:

(a Texas corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' investment and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993. These consolidated financial statements and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Keystone International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the 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.
As explained in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 1993, the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes. As explained in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 1991, the Company changed its method of accounting for postretirement benefit obligations.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in the index of financial statements and schedules are presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the basic consolidated financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
