As of March 5, 2002, 33,884,046 shares of Common Stock, par value $.694/9 per share, were outstanding and the aggregate market value of the Common Stock (based upon the closing price of the stock on the New York Stock Exchange on such date) held by non-affiliates was approximately $841,250,336. As of March 5, 2002, 16,304,276 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.694/9 per share, were outstanding. Class B Common Stock is not traded on any exchange, is restricted as to transfer or other disposition, but is convertible into Common Stock on a share-for-share basis. Upon such conversion, the resulting shares of Common Stock are freely transferable and publicly traded. Assuming all 16,304,276 shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock were converted into Common Stock, the aggregate market value of Common Stock held by non-affiliates on March 5, 2002 (based upon the closing price of the stock on the New York Stock Exchange on such date) would have been approximately $893,438,434. Determination of stock ownership by non-affiliates was made solely for the purpose of this requirement, and the Registrant is not bound by these determinations for any other purpose.

Forward-Looking Information

        From time to time, in the Company's statements and written reports, including this report, the Company discusses its expectations regarding future performance by making certain "forward-looking statements." These forward-looking statements are based on currently available competitive, financial and economic data and management's views and assumptions regarding future events. Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied herein. Consequently, the Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. In connection with the "safe harbor provisions" of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes the following factors which, among others, could cause future results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, expectations and assumptions expressed or implied herein. Among the factors that could impact the Company's ability to achieve its stated goals are the following: (i) significant competitive activity, including advertising, promotional and price competition, and changes in consumer demand for the Company's products; (ii) fluctuations in the cost and availability of various raw materials; and (iii) inherent risks in the marketplace associated with new product introductions, including uncertainties about trade and consumer acceptance. In addition, the Company's results may be affected by general factors, such as economic conditions, political developments, currency exchange rates, interest and inflation rates, accounting standards, taxes, and laws and regulations affecting the Company in markets where it competes.


PART I

ITEM 1.    Business.

        Tootsie Roll Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company") have been engaged in the manufacture and sale of candy for over 100 years. This is the only industry segment in which the Company operates and is its only line of business. The majority of the Company's products are sold under the registered trademarks TOOTSIE ROLL, TOOTSIE ROLL POPS, CHILD'S PLAY, CARAMEL APPLE POPS, CHARMS, BLOW-POP, BLUE RAZZ, ZIP-A-DEE-DOO-DA POPS, CELLA'S, MASON DOTS, MASON CROWS, JUNIOR MINT, CHARLESTON CHEW, SUGAR DADDY, SUGAR BABIES, ANDES AND FLUFFY STUFF. The Company acquired the trademarks for Junior Mint, Charleston Chew, Sugar Daddy and Sugar Babies in 1993 along with the manufacturing assets of the former Chocolate/Caramel Division of Warner Lambert Company. In 2000, the Company acquired the trademarks for Andes and Fluffy Stuff along with their corresponding manufacturing assets for an aggregate purchase price of $74,293,000.

        The Company's products are marketed in a variety of packages designed to be suitable for display and sale in different types of retail outlets. They are distributed through approximately 100 candy and grocery brokers and by the Company itself to approximately 15,000 customers throughout the United States. These customers include wholesale distributors of candy and groceries, supermarkets, variety stores, chain grocers, drug chains, discount chains, cooperative grocery associations, warehouse and membership club stores, vending machine operators, and fund-raising charitable organizations.

        The Company's principal markets are in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Company's Mexican plant supplies a very small percentage of the products marketed in the United States and Canada.

        The Company has advertised nationally for many years. Although nearly all advertising media have been used at one time or another, at present most of the Company's advertising expenditures are for commercials aired on network and syndicated television and cable television in major markets throughout the country.

1



        The domestic candy business is highly competitive. The Company competes primarily with other manufacturers of bar candy and bagged candy of the type sold in variety, grocery, mass merchandisers, drug chains and convenience stores. Although accurate statistics are not available, the Company believes it is among the ten largest domestic manufacturers in this field. In the markets in which the Company competes, the main forms of competition comprise brand recognition as well as a fair price for our products at various retail price points.

        The Company did not have a material backlog of firm orders at the end of the calendar years 2000 or 2001.

        Packaging materials and ingredients used by the Company are readily obtainable from a number of suppliers at competitive prices. Packaging material costs, including films, cartons, corrugated containers and waxed paper, were stable in 2001. The Company continues to seek competitive bids to leverage the high volume of annual purchases it makes of these items and to lower per unit costs. The Company has engaged in hedging transactions primarily in sugar and corn syrup and may do so in the future if and when advisable. From time to time the Company changes the size of certain of its products, which are usually sold at standard retail prices, to reflect significant changes in raw material costs.

        The Company does not hold any material patents, licenses, franchises or concessions. The Company's major trademarks are registered in the United States and in many other countries. Continued trademark protection is of material importance to the Company's business as a whole.

        The Company does not expend significant amounts of money on research or development activities.

        The Company's compliance with Federal, State and local regulations which have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, has not had a material effect on the capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position of the Company nor does the Company anticipate any such material effects from presently enacted or adopted regulations.

        The Company employs approximately 1,950 persons.

        The Company has found that its sales normally maintain a consistent level throughout the year except for a substantial upsurge in the third quarter which reflects sales associated with Halloween. In anticipation of this high sales period, the Company generally begins its Halloween inventory build up in the second quarter of each year. The Company historically offers extended credit terms for sales made under Halloween sales programs. Each year, after Halloween receivables have been collected, the Company invests such funds in various temporary cash investments.

        Revenues from a major customer aggregated approximately 16.9%, 17.8% and 17.9% of total net sales during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

        For a summary of sales, net earnings and assets of the Company by geographic area and additional information regarding the foreign subsidiaries of the Company, see Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on Page 15 of the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2001 (the "2001 Report") and on Page 4 of the 2001 Report under the section entitled "International." Note 12 and the aforesaid section are incorporated herein by reference. Portions of the 2001 Report are filed as an exhibit to this report.


ITEM 2.    Properties.

        The Company owns its principal plant and offices which are located in Chicago, Illinois in a building consisting of approximately 2,225,000 square feet. The Company utilizes approximately 1,925,000 square feet for offices, manufacturing and warehousing facilities and leases, or has available to lease to third parties, approximately 300,000 square feet.

2



        In addition to owning the principal plant and warehousing facilities mentioned above, the Company leases manufacturing and warehousing facilities at a second location in Chicago which comprises 138,000 square feet. The lease is renewable by the Company every five years through June, 2011. The Company also periodically leases additional warehousing space at this second location as needed on a month to month basis.

        The Company's other principal manufacturing facilities, all of which are owned, are:

Location
  Square Feet (a)
New York, New York   60,000
Covington, Tennessee   685,000
Cambridge, Massachusetts   142,000
Delevan, Wisconsin   162,000
Mexico City, Mexico   90,000

(a)
Square footage is approximate and includes production, warehousing and office space.

        The Company owns substantially all of the production machinery and equipment located in its plants and considers that all of its facilities are well maintained, in good operating condition and adequately insured.


ITEM 3.    Legal Proceedings.

        There are no material pending legal proceedings known to the Company to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their property is the subject.


ITEM 4.    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
