PART I

Item 1. - Business.

Worthington Industries, Inc. was initially incorporated in
Ohio in 1955. It reincorporated in Delaware in 1986 through a
statutory merger. Worthington Industries, Inc. and its
subsidiaries are herein referred to as the "Company." The
Company's operations are grouped into three segments: processed
steel products, custom products and cast products.

The processed steel products segment is engaged in the
business of processing flat rolled steel to close tolerances for
sale to industrial customers who require steel of precise
thickness, length, width, shape, surface finish and temper for
their own product fabrication. The Company also makes its own
line of finished processed steel products such as low pressure
cylinders for containing liquefied petroleum, refrigerant and
other gases.

The custom products segment produces injection-molded
plastic and precision metal parts for sale to manufacturers of
automobiles, appliances, lawn equipment, audio equipment,
recreational items, housewares and other items in North America.

The cast products segment produces a broad line of cast
steel products for sale to the freight railcar, mass transit and
industrial markets.

For information regarding the net sales and revenues,
earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, and
identifiable assets attributable to each segment for each of the
last three fiscal years, reference is made to page 25 of the
Company's annual report to shareholders for the year ended
May 31, 1994 which is incorporated herein by reference.

During the year ended May 31, 1994, the Company acquired
additional equity in Rouge Steel Company, exercising a favorable
option acquired when the original investment was made in fiscal
1990. This brought the Company's equity ownership in Rouge to
approximately 28% and the Company was required by generally
accepted accounting principles to change its method of carrying
the investment from cost to equity. See Note J of the Notes to
the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, which are
included in Item 8 hereof, for additional information concerning
the Company's investment in Rouge Steel Company and other
unconsolidated affiliates.

Processed Steel Products.

The Company buys coils of wide, open tolerance sheet steel
from major steel mills, and processes it to the custom order of
more than 1,700 industrial customers in the automotive,
automotive supply, appliance, electrical, communications,
construction, office furniture, office equipment, agricultural,
machinery, leisure time and other industries. The Company does
not process steel for inventory.

Techniques such as slitting, roller leveling, cold reduc-
tion, edge rolling, blanking, coating, annealing and pickling are
used to process steel to specified thickness, length, width,
shape, temper and surface quality. One or more processes are
applied to produce steel of specified character and dimension
which the customer can stamp, blank, draw, roll form, fabricate
or otherwise incorporate into component parts or end products.
Slitting is cutting steel to specified widths. Roller leveling
is flattening steel and cutting it to exact lengths. Cold
reduction is rolling steel to close tolerances of thickness and
temper. Edge rolling imparts round, smooth or knurled edges.
Blanking cuts the steel into specific shapes. Coating results in
the production of painted, galvanized or nickel-plated steel.
Annealing is a thermal process which changes the hardness of
steel. Pickling is a chemical process whereby an acidic solution
removes the surface oxide, commonly called "scale", which
develops on steel when it is hot rolled.

Steel processing is highly competitive. The Company
competes with many other intermediate processors. The Company
knows of no other intermediate processor which offers the same
type and extent of technical service support provided by the
Company relating to material testing and application of material
suited to the particular needs of customers (see "Technical
Services"). The Company is unable to gauge, however, the extent
to which its technical service capability has improved its
competitive position.

The Company manufactures steel cylinders having refrigerant
gas capacities of 15 to 1000 pounds, and steel and aluminum
cylinders with liquefied petroleum gas capacities of 4-1/4 to 420
pounds. These cylinders are designed and produced in accordance
with safety requirements prescribed by the U.S. Department of
Transportation which specify materials, design limitations, and
marking, inspection and testing procedures to be used. The
cylinders are produced by precision stamping, deep drawing and
welding of component parts to customer specifications. They are
then tested, painted and packaged as required.

Disposable steel cylinders manufactured by the Company are
sold predominantly to major refrigerant gas producers who fill
the cylinders with refrigerant gases and re-sell them to dealers
for use in charging residential, commercial, automotive and other
air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Reusable steel and
aluminum cylinders are built to contain liquefied petroleum gas
for use as a fuel, and the major buyers are manufacturers of
barbecue grills. Reusable cylinders are also sold to propane and
gas grill distributors, mass merchandisers and manufacturers and
users of materials-handling, heating, cooking and camping
equipment. The Company also manufactures other cylinder products
such as recapture and recycling tanks for refrigerant gases,
helium tanks and compressed air tanks. It also sells acetylene
cylinders for welding applications. While a large percentage of
sales are made to major accounts, the Company has over 1,000
cylinder customers.

The Company has two principal competitors in its major
pressure cylinder markets, of which management believes the
Company has the largest share. However, the Company has no
reliable information with respect to the size of any of its
various product markets or its relative position therein for any
segment.

The largest customer of the processed steel products segment
is General Motors Corporation, purchasing through decentralized
divisions and subsidiaries and in different geographical areas.
(See "Marketing and Competition"). The loss of General Motors as
a customer could have an adverse effect on the segment, but the
Company has no reason to believe that the loss of this customer
is likely.

The Company purchases steel in large quantities, at regular
intervals from major primary producers for its steel processing
and pressure cylinder operations. During the fiscal year ended
May 31, 1994 the Company's major suppliers were Rouge Steel
Company (in which the Company holds a minority equity position)
Bethlehem Steel Corporation, LTV Steel Corporation, USX
Corporation, WCI Steel, Inc., Weirton Steel Corporation and
Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel Corporation. During the fiscal year
ended May 31, 1994, the Company's major suppliers of aluminum for
pressure cylinders were Alumax Aluminum Sales Corporation
Cressona Aluminum Company and Aluminum Corporation of America.
Management believes that its supplier relationships are good.

Custom Products.

In the custom products segment, the Company manufactures
injection molded plastic and precision metal parts to customer
specifications. The primary customers of this segment are in the
automotive original equipment markets, but sales are also made to
manufacturers of appliances, lawn equipment, audio equipment,
recreational items, hand tools, housewares and other items.
Principal products of the segment are a variety of custom made
injection molded plastic components (both functional and decorative)
which, depending on the customers' needs, can also be painted, assembled,
silk screened, vacuum metalized, hot stamped, roll foiled, vinyl
wrapped, foamed in-place and/or appliqued by the Company.
Precision metal components are made primarily for power steering,
transmission, brake and other mechanical systems.

The custom products segment relies heavily on sales to
General Motors Corporation, The Ford Motor Company and Chrysler
Corporation. The loss of any of these customers could have an
adverse effect on the segment but the Company has no reason to
believe that the loss of any of these customers is likely.

Plastic resins and bar steel, the major raw materials
required by this segment, are available from many sources.

The Company has numerous competitors in the sale of its
custom products. This business competes in its markets by
seeking to provide well-engineered, quality products within
required delivery terms to meet the specific needs of its plastic
parts and precision metal component customers.

Cast Products.

The Company's cast products segment operates a steel
castings business. The steel castings operation manufactures a
diverse line of cast steel products ranging in size from 100
pounds to 30 tons. These products are offered to the railroad,
mass transit, construction and off-highway markets, and are
produced to satisfy customer orders. The Company can also pour
ingots of special alloy steel which are converted to coils,
plates, bars and forgings by outside users.

In general, there are a number of companies involved in the
sale of steel castings. However, there are four major
competitors in the sale of certain railcar castings. The
Company's cast products are generally sold under trademark which
is a stylized "Circle B", and the Company utilizes various other
owned and licensed trademarks and patents in connection with its
cast products. The Company is the leading North American
designer and producer of undercarriages for mass transit cars and
holds numerous patents for them.

Scrap steel, the major raw material required by the cast
products segment, is purchased from several sources, including a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Supplies of scrap steel
have been adequate, although pricing in the market tends to be
volatile. Other raw materials used by this segment are obtained
from a number of major suppliers.

Technical Services.

The Company employs a staff of engineers and other technical
personnel and maintains fully-equipped, modern laboratories to
support its operations. The facilities enable the Company to
verify, analyze and document the physical, chemical,
metallurgical and mechanical properties of its raw materials and
products. Technical service personnel also work in conjunction
with the sales force to determine the types of flat rolled steel
and steel castings required for the particular needs of the
Company's customers. In order to provide such service, the
Company maintains a continuing program of developmental
engineering with respect to the characteristics and performance
of its products under varying conditions. Laboratory facilities
are also used to perform the quality control and extensive
testing of all low pressure cylinders required by the regulations
of the U. S. Department of Transportation and associated
agencies, as well as varying customer requirements. The Company
also maintains a separate testing facility for its steel castings
operation.

Marketing and Competition.

The Company's products and services are sold primarily by
Company sales personnel.

As a percentage of the Company's consolidated sales and
revenues, sales of steel processing services represented 59% for
fiscal 1994, 56% for fiscal 1993 and 52% for fiscal 1992; sales
of pressure cylinders represented 13% for 1994, 13% for 1993 and
11% for 1992; and sales of custom plastics represented 17% in
1994, 19% in 1993 and 20% in 1992.

During the fiscal year ended May 31, 1994, General Motors
Corporation, purchasing through decentralized divisions and
subsidiaries in different geographical areas, accounted for
approximately 12.6% of the Company's consolidated sales and
revenues.

The principal methods of competition encountered by the
Company are quality of product, ability to meet delivery
requirements of customers, and price. Geographic proximity to
customers has a significant effect upon relative ability to meet
customer delivery schedules and impacts the freight charge
portion of overall product price. See also the information set
forth above as to competition in the various segments.

Environmental Regulation.

The Company's manufacturing facilities, generally in common
with those similar industries making similar products, are
subject to many federal, state and local requirements relating to
the protection of the environment. The Company continually
examines ways to reduce emissions and waste and to effect cost
savings related to environmental compliance. Management does not
anticipate that capital expenditures for environmental control
facilities required in order to meet environmental requirements
will be material when compared with the Company's overall capital
expenditures.

Employees.

The Company employs approximately 7,700 people.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates.

The Company participates in four joint ventures as follows:
(a) Worthington Armstrong Venture manufactures suspended ceiling
systems for concealed and lay-in panel ceilings from three plants
located in Pennsylvania, Maryland and France; (b) Worthington
Specialty Processing processes wide sheet steel from its plant in
Jackson, Michigan; (c) TWB Company, located in the Detroit,
Michigan area, produces laser welded steel blanks for the
automobile industry; and (d) London Industries, Inc. produces
injection molded plastic products in London, Ohio. The Company
also owns a minority equity interest (28%) in Rouge Steel
Company, an integrated steel mill located near Detroit, Michigan.
See Note J of the Notes to the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements for additional information on these unconsolidated
affiliates of the Company.

Item 2. - Properties.

The Company's principal properties presently consist of 25
owned and 2 leased manufacturing and office facilities. These
properties are located in Ohio (12), Alabama (1), Georgia (3),
Indiana (1), Kentucky (1), Maryland (1), Michigan (2), Oklahoma
(1), Ontario (1), Pennsylvania (1), South Carolina (2) and
Tennessee (1). These plants and offices are used in the
processed steel products (16), custom products (7) and cast
products (3) segments and for general corporate purposes (1).
The above facilities, all of which are well maintained and in
good operating condition, contain in excess of 5,000,000 square
feet, and are adequate to meet the Company's present needs.

See Item 1 under the heading "Investments in Unconsolidated
Affiliates" for the location of the Company's unconsolidated
affiliates.

Item 3. - Legal Proceedings.

The Ohio EPA has threatened to sue the Company's subsidiary,
Buckeye Steel Castings Company, for various alleged air pollution
matters at its foundry in Columbus, Ohio. The primary
allegations concern (a) alleged emissions of fugitive dust from
the facility, mainly related to malfunctions of its dust
collection systems (i.e. baghouses) in 1989; (b) alleged failures
to obtain permits in a timely manner; and (c) alleged failures in
prior years to use reasonably available control measures to
collect dust inside its facility. The Company disputes the
alleged violations, and is currently involved in negotiations in
an attempt to resolve the matter. Any remedy will be discussed
as part of the negotiations.

Item 4. - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

Not applicable.
