Part I
FMC Corporation was incorporated in 1928 under Delaware law and has its
principal executive offices at 200 East Randolph Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60601.
As used in this report, except where otherwise stated or indicated by the
context, "FMC", "the Company" or "the Registrant" means FMC Corporation and its
consolidated subsidiaries and their predecessors.
The Company, a producer of chemicals and machinery for industry, agriculture and
government, operates on a worldwide basis in selected segments of four broad
markets: Performance Chemicals, Industrial Chemicals, Machinery and Equipment
and Defense Systems. The Company operates 117 manufacturing facilities and mines
in 27 states and 28 countries. Performance Chemicals develops, manufactures and
markets proprietary specialty chemicals for the agricultural, food and
pharmaceutical industries. Industrial Chemicals businesses manufacture a wide
variety of chemicals including soda ash, phosphates and hydrogen peroxide. Major
customers include detergent, glass and paper producers, as well as other
chemical companies. Machinery and Equipment businesses provide specialized
machinery to the food, petroleum, transportation and material handling
industries. Defense Systems develops, manufactures and supplies ground combat
vehicles and naval weapons systems to the armed forces of the United States and
other governments. Effective January 1, 1994, the Company and Harsco Corporation
("Harsco") formed a joint venture, United Defense, L.P., which is a combination
of certain assets and liabilities of the Company's Defense Systems Group and
Harsco's BMY Combat Systems Division and pursuant to which the Company is the
Managing General Partner with a 60% equity interest.

Industry Segments
(c) Narrative Description of Business - Annual Report to Stockholders, pages
6-9
Source and availability of raw materials
- ----------------------------------------
FMC's natural resource requirements are primarily mineral-oriented. Substantial
portions of requirements for ores and other raw materials, especially trona and
phosphate rock, are produced from mines in the United States on property held by
FMC under long-term leases which are subject to periodic adjustments of royalty
rates. Machinery operations obtain raw materials, principally steel and
castings, from many foreign and domestic sources. No one source is considered
essential to any of the machinery operations. The Company uses oil, gas, coal,
coke, hydroelectric power and nuclear power to meet its energy needs.
Patents
- -------
Although FMC's patents, trademarks and licenses are cumulatively important to
its business, FMC does not believe that the loss of any one or group of related
patents, trademarks or licenses would have a material adverse effect on the
overall business of FMC or on any of its business segments.
Principal Customer
- ------------------
Sales to various agencies of the United States government aggregated $851.2
million, $706.5 million and $618.3 million in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
These sales were made primarily by the Defense Systems segment. Contracts with
various agencies of the United States government and subcontracts with other
prime contractors are subject to a profusion of procurement regulations, with
noncompliance found by any one agency possibly resulting in fines, penalties,
debarment or suspension from receiving additional government contracts.
Moreover, these contracts may be terminated at the government's convenience,
although contractors are normally protected by provisions covering reimbursement
for costs incurred as well as the payment of any applicable fees or profits.
Seasonality
- -----------
FMC's businesses are not generally considered to be seasonal, although there has
been a bias in the Performance Chemicals segment towards lower profitability in
the fourth quarter primarily due to seasonality in the markets served by the
agricultural products businesses.
Competitive Conditions
- ----------------------
FMC competes on the basis of price and product performance and is among the
market leaders in most products it manufactures. FMC is the world's largest
producer of natural soda ash, a leading North American producer of hydrogen
peroxide, a leading North American producer of industrial phosphorus chemicals
and a world
leader in the mining and processing of lithium products. FMC manufactures
Furadan, one of the largest selling insecticides in the world. FMC is also the
largest worldwide producer of carrageenan, microcrystalline cellulose, and
phosphate ester flame retardants. United Defense, L.P. is a world leader in the
production of tracked, armored personnel carriers. FMC also participates in many
machinery businesses, including food processing, material handling and energy
equipment, where FMC has a significant market share. Products are sold in highly
competitive markets worldwide.
Research and Development Expenditures
- -------------------------------------
Year Ended December 31
------------------------
In Millions 1996 1995 1994
------ ------ ------
Performance Chemicals $113.1 $109.2 $ 94.3
Industrial Chemicals 20.4 16.2 16.2
Machinery and Equipment 41.5 49.0 29.6
Defense Systems 12.9 12.4 16.3
Corporate 1.5 1.0 10.4
------ ------ ------
Total $189.4 $187.8 $166.8
Expenditures for research and development increased in Performance Chemicals
primarily due to continued development of herbicides. Expenditures also
increased in Industrial Chemicals primarily due to new product development and
process improvement efforts regarding the Company's peroxygen and phosphorus
products. Expenditures decreased in Machinery & Equipment primarily related to
the absence of the write-off of acquired in-process research and development
related to the Moorco acquisition ($15.5 million in 1995) offset partially by
increased research and development expenditures related to acquisitions and the
Company's airport products business.
Not included in these amounts are $320.3 million, $279.6 million and $148.0
million in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, for research and development
projects contracted directly with the U.S. government and commercial sponsors,
primarily related to Defense Systems programs.

Employees
- ---------
FMC employs 22,048 people in its domestic and foreign operations. Approximately
4,500 such employees are represented by collective bargaining agreements in the
United States and Canada. In 1997, seven of the Company's 26 contracts will
expire. Certain of those contracts are under negotiation at the present time.
FMC maintains good employee relations and has successfully concluded virtually
all of its recent negotiations without a work stoppage. In those rare instances
where a work stoppage has occurred, there has been no material effect on
consolidated sales and earnings. However, FMC cannot predict the outcome of
future contract negotiations.

Forward Looking Statements - Safe Harbor Provisions
- ---------------------------------------------------
The Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral
forward-looking statements with respect to long-term objectives or expectations
of the Company, including statements contained in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and in its reports to stockholders.
The words or phrases "will likely result", "are expected to", "will continue",
"is anticipated", "is predicted", "forecast", "estimate", "project", or similar
expressions identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently
anticipated or projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place
undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of
the date made. In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company is hereby identifying
important factors that could affect the Company's financial
performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to
differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to
future periods in any current statements.
Among the factors that could have an impact on the Company's ability to achieve
its operating results and growth plan goals are:
. significant price competition, particularly among the Company's
competitors in industrial chemicals
. high ingredient or raw material prices compared to historical levels, or
shortages of ingredients or raw materials
. the inherent risks in the marketplace associated with new product
introductions and technologies, particularly in agricultural and specialty
chemicals
. the risks associated with developing new manufacturing processes,
particularly with respect to complex chemical products
. the impact of budgetary restrictions which may be imposed by the U.S.
and foreign governments with respect to spending on defense weaponry,
training and research
. the ability of the Company to integrate recent acquisitions into its
existing operations
. the impact of unforeseen economic and political changes in the
international markets where the Company competes including currency
exchange rates, inflation rates, recessions, foreign ownership
restrictions, and other external factors over which the Company has no
control
. the impact of significant changes in domestic interest rates or taxation
rates.
The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors may not be all
inclusive and it specifically declines to undertake any obligation to publicly
revise any forward-looking statements that have been made to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of
anticipated or unanticipated events.
Item 2. Properties
FMC leases executive offices in Chicago and administrative offices in
Philadelphia. The Company operates 117 manufacturing facilities and mines in 28
countries. Major research facilities are in Santa Clara, CA, and Princeton, NJ.
FMC holds mining leases on shale and ore deposits in Idaho to supply its
phosphorus plant in Pocatello, and owns substantial phosphatic ore deposits in
Rich County, Utah. Trona ore, used for soda ash production in Green River, WY,
is mined primarily from property held under long-term lease. FMC also owns half
of a lithium mine located near Cherryville, NC, and has long-term lease
commitments for the remaining portion and in Argentina FMC owns the land and
mineral rights to the Salar del Hombre Muerto lithium reserves. Many of FMC's
chemical plants require the basic raw materials which are provided by these FMC-
owned or -leased mines, without which other sources would have to be obtained.
FMC's mining properties are operated under
numerous long-term leases with no single lease or related group of leases
material to the businesses of the Company as a whole. United Defense, L.P.
leases its administrative offices in Arlington, Virginia.
Most of FMC's plant sites are owned, with an immaterial number of them being
leased. FMC believes its properties and facilities meet present requirements and
are in good operating condition and that each of its significant manufacturing
facilities is operating at a level consistent with the industry in which it
operates. FMC's production properties for continuing operations are:

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Environmental Proceedings
- -------------------------
As initially reported in FMC's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1994, an environmental inspection was conducted in July 1993 at
FMC's Phosphorus Chemicals Division plant in Pocatello, Idaho. In August 1994,
the United States EPA (Region 10) (the "EPA") formally notified FMC of a number
of alleged violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and related
environmental regulations governing the management of hazardous waste generated
by the plant, including the operations of hazardous waste storage and treatment
units without interim status, the failure to submit timely closure plans, the
failure to implement an adequate groundwater monitoring program and to comply
with related reporting requirements and the existence of several other improper
treatment and disposal practices. Although there are no legal proceedings
pending at this time, FMC has been advised that the matter has been referred to
the United States Department of Justice for an evaluation of whether to file a
civil enforcement action. If such a civil action is filed, the government is
likely to demand both injunctive relief and civil penalties. FMC is seeking to
settle this matter in advance of litigation. Management believes that the
resolution of these matters will not likely have a material adverse effect on
FMC's liquidity, results of operations or financial condition.
