PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
General
NCR Corporation ("NCR" or the "Company") was originally incorporated in
1884. NCR was a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange prior to
its merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of AT&T Corp. ("AT&T") on September
19, 1991. Effective December 31, 1996, AT&T distributed to its shareholders all
of its interest in NCR (the "Distribution") on the basis of one share of NCR
common stock for each 16 shares of AT&T common stock. The Distribution resulted
in approximately 101.4 million shares of NCR common stock outstanding as of
December 31, 1996. NCR common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and
trades under the symbol "NCR."
NCR operates in one industry segment, the information technology
industry, which includes designing, developing, marketing, and selling
information technology products, services, systems, and solutions worldwide. NCR
is a global solutions company with leadership positions in automated teller
machines ("ATMs"), point-of-sale terminals and scanners, and high-end scalable
data warehousing (defined as systems of more than 300 gigabits). The Company
provides specific solutions to businesses in the retail, financial, and
communications industries. Solutions are partnerships NCR undertakes with its
customers to solve complex business problems and involve providing a combination
of hardware, software, consulting, and support services. NCR's systems and
solutions are supported by its worldwide customer support services and
professional consulting offerings, and its Systemedia business, which develops,
produces, and markets a complete line of consumable and media products.
Revenues by similar classes of products or services are reported on
page 3 of NCR's 1997 Annual Report to Stockholders and are incorporated herein
by reference.
Geographic information is reported in Note 8, "Segment Information and
Concentrations" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 23-24
of NCR's 1997 Annual Report to Stockholders and is incorporated herein by
reference.
NCR's business is structured along the business units described below.
Retail Solutions Group
Solutions
The Retail Solutions Group (in conjunction with other NCR business
units) designs, develops, markets, sells, and delivers a full line of solutions,
products, and services for the retail industry. These offerings are categorized
into two solutions portfolios: High Performance Merchandising & Marketing
(HPM&M) and Store Automation. NCR's HPM&M solutions portfolio is designed to
enable retailers to analyze product, customer and store-level data to optimize
profitability, customer service, and customer lifetime value. HPM&M solutions
include category and merchandise management, integrated forecasting, planning
and replenishment, seasonal and promotional analysis, and target marketing. The
Store Automation solutions portfolio is designed to improve the productivity of
the selling and checkout process in stores and to increase the level of service
retailers provide to their customers. This portfolio includes point-of-sale
workstations, barcode scanners, scanner-scales, self-service retailing,
electronic price labeling, networking, and computer server technology to link
these terminals and scanners on both a local and wide-area basis, and in-store
and enterprise level support systems.
Through its HPM&M solutions portfolio, the Retail Solutions Group
provides in-store and enterprise-level decision-support solutions using the
Scalable Data Warehousing solutions developed by NCR's Computer Systems Group as
a foundation. These solutions allow retailers to consolidate and analyze the
individual transaction data generated by point-of-sale systems, in order to
determine trends in consumer preferences and product sales. Analysis of this
detailed data is designed to allow the retailer to make decisions about
inventory, purchases, and distribution, in order to meet the needs of its
customers more effectively.
Through its Store Automation portfolio, NCR provides software and
hardware components for store-level solutions that are designed to improve
customer service and operational effectiveness. NCR point-of-sale terminals and
barcode scanners, typically found in the merchandise checkout area of
supermarkets, department stores, specialty stores, convenience stores, fast food
counters, and at hotel registration desks and restaurants, can be linked via an
in-store network. This network can provide an interconnection between these
devices and other in-store devices, such as personal computers ("PCs"). NCR
provides the networking technology to link these products to NCR and other
servers within the store and offers the capability of additional linking to
enterprise-wide networks outside the individual store. NCR has alliance
relationships with application developers who provide specialized enterprise and
retail-store solutions as part of NCR's offerings to the retail industry.
Integrated within the Retail Solutions Group at all levels are teams
focused on developing solutions to meet the needs of a variety of retail
customers. These teams include professional services consultants and customer
support specialists who provide consulting services to help customers design,
integrate, install, and support in-store networks of scanners, point-of-sale
terminals, network servers and enterprise-level decision-support, and data
warehousing systems. NCR incorporates third-party products and software as
required to create individualized solutions for specific customer needs.
Target Markets and Distribution Channels
The major segments of the retail industry market served by NCR are
general merchandise, food and drug, and hospitality. The general merchandise
segment includes department stores, specialty retailers, mass merchandisers, and
catalog stores; the food and drug segment includes supermarkets, hypermarkets,
grocery, drug, wholesalers, and convenience stores; and the hospitality segment
includes lodging (hotel/motel), fast food/quick service, and restaurants. NCR
believes that retail industry customers base their buying decisions on a number
of criteria, including the quality of the solution or product, total cost of
ownership, industry knowledge of the vendor, and the quality of the vendor's
support and professional services.
NCR's retail solutions are marketed through a combination of direct and
indirect channels. The majority of the networked solutions and scalable data
warehousing solutions sold by NCR into the retail industry are sold through
the Company's direct sales force. In recent years, over 70% of the retail-
specific product sales (primarily barcode scanners and point-of-sale terminals)
were sold by the direct sales force; the remainder were sold through indirect
channels.
In addition to being sold by NCR's direct sales force, NCR retail
solutions are sold through alliances with value-added resellers, distributors,
and dealers worldwide. NCR provides supporting services, including collateral
sales materials, sales leads, porting facilities, and marketing programs, to
this sales channel.
Competition
NCR faces significant competition in the retail industry in all
geographic areas where it operates. The bases of competition can vary by
geographic area but typically include quality of the solutions or products,
total cost of ownership, industry knowledge of the vendor, and knowledge and
experience of the vendor's professional and support services. NCR's competitors
vary by solution, product, service offering, and geographic area.
Financial Solutions Group
Solutions
The Financial Solutions Group (in conjunction with other NCR business
units) designs, develops, markets, sells, and delivers a full line of solutions,
products, and services for the financial industry with particular focus on
retail banking. These offerings are categorized into four primary solutions
portfolios: Self Service, Channel Delivery, Payment, and Customer Management.
The Self Service solutions portfolio includes a full line of ATMs,
associated software and services, specialized ATMs for the Japanese market,
specialized ATMs for the "self-service branch" market, self-service devices that
dispense information and non-cash items (such as tickets and coupons), and
outsourced management of self-service networks. These solutions are designed to
assist financial services customers in replacing higher-cost customer service
methods with lower-cost, higher availability machines and
2
equipment. In addition, NCR believes ATMs increasingly offer revenue-generating
opportunities for banks and non-bank customers.
The Customer Management solutions portfolio combines professional
services, modeling, and tools with the Company's scalable data warehousing
platform. These solutions are designed to help banks and other financial
institutions improve their ability to target and retain profitable consumers.
Using these solutions, institutions can better understand the profitability,
risk, and behavior patterns of individual consumers with the goal of optimizing
the level of service provided and increasing the profit contribution of each
consumer. NCR's solutions are designed to help financial institutions understand
individual consumers better and improve marketing efforts.
NCR's Channel Delivery solutions portfolio includes products and
services relating to bank branch automation, call centers, home banking,
switching, and account processing. These solutions are designed to help increase
the efficiency and marketing capabilities of banks and other financial service
providers.
Through the Financial Solutions Group's Payment solutions portfolio,
NCR offers electro-mechanical item-processing devices that read and sort checks
and other paper items, image processing devices that convert checks and other
paper items to electronic images, outsourced management of item and
image-processing facilities, and products and services related to emerging
payment methodologies, particularly "smart" cards. These solutions are designed
to improve the efficiency of "back-office," paper-based functions for banks and
other financial services companies, and to move these institutions from
paper-based systems to emerging electronic payment systems.
Integrated within the Financial Solutions Group at all levels are teams
focused on developing solutions to meet the needs of a variety of financial
services customers. In the field, this includes professional services
consultants and customer support specialists who provide consulting services to
help customers design, integrate, install, and support self-service devices and
networks, item/image processing systems, branch automation and call-center
software and equipment, network servers, and data warehousing systems. NCR
incorporates third-party products and software as required to create
individualized solutions for specific customer needs.
Target Markets and Distribution Channels
NCR serves a number of segments in the financial industry. These
segments include retail banking, which covers both traditional and newer
providers of consumer banking services and financial services, such as the
insurance and card payment industries, as well as the non-traditional financial
services segment, including companies that have diversified into the financial
services area to complement their core businesses. NCR's financial industry
customers are located throughout the world in both established and emerging
markets. These customers range from very large to very small financial service
providers, reflecting, in NCR's view, its ability to develop solutions for the
variety of companies that make up the world's financial services industry.
NCR believes that financial services industry customers base their
buying decisions on a number of criteria, including the quality of the solution
or product, industry knowledge of the vendor, the economic justification for
implementing the solution, the vendor's ability to provide and support a total
end-to-end solution, the vendor's ability to integrate new and existing systems,
the fit of the vendor's strategic vision, and the quality of the vendor's
support and professional services.
NCR has historically distributed most of its financial solutions,
products, services, and systems through NCR's direct sales channel, although
certain revenues are derived through sales by distributors. The Financial
Solutions Group expects to increase the level of business transacted through
indirect channels and partners, where appropriate, in both current and emerging
markets.
Competition
NCR faces significant competition in the financial industry in all
geographic areas where it operates. The bases of competition can vary, but
typically include quality of the solutions or products, the industry knowledge
of the vendor, the economic justification for implementing the solution, the
vendor's ability to provide and support a total, end-to-end solution, the
vendor's ability to integrate new and existing systems, the fit of the vendor's
strategic vision with the customer's strategic direction, and the quality of the
vendor's support and professional services. NCR's competitors vary by solution,
product, service offering, and geographic area.

Computer Systems Group
Solutions
The Computer Systems Group (in conjunction with other NCR business
units) designs, develops, markets, sells, and delivers solutions, products,
systems, and services. These offerings integrate software, hardware, middleware,
professional services, support services, and products, including those from
leading technology firms. The Computer Systems Group provides solutions to the
communications industry and to national accounts in industries other than the
retail and financial industries. The Computer Systems Group's solutions
portfolios are: Scalable Data Warehousing, High Availability/Electronic
Commerce, Yield Management, and Internet Commerce.
The Scalable Data Warehousing solutions portfolio is designed to
provide enabling technology for businesses that are seeking a competitive
advantage through better use of customer and business data. NCR scalable data
warehousing provides a high level of linear performance, scalability,
availability, and manageability of data for both repetitive and ad hoc
(iterative) queries in a decision-support environment. The Scalable Data
Warehousing solutions portfolio is also the foundation for the Yield Management
solutions portfolio provided by the Computer Systems Group, as well as the
HPM&M and Customer Management solutions offered by the Retail Solutions Group
and Financial Solutions Group, respectively.
NCR's High Availability/Electronic Commerce solutions portfolio brings
together the Company's transaction processing and high-availability technologies
and is intended to help businesses keep critical, computer-based applications
running with minimal downtime. Solutions offered by NCR for security,
transaction processing, and other requirements of electronic commerce are
designed to assist customers in conducting business with a high level of
performance, ease-of-use, and security. NCR LifeKeeper(R) software is designed
to minimize downtime by recognizing and recovering hardware component or
application faults before a total system failure occurs. NCR TOP END(R)
middleware software reroutes transactions during a system failure, working in
conjunction with LifeKeeper for additional system protection.
Solutions in the Yield Management portfolio are directed at helping
communications companies manage the yield of information from customers and
networks. These solutions are designed to help telecommunications companies
acquire new customers, manage customer turnover, improve forecasting and
utilization of switch capacity and capital expenditure requirements, and improve
efficiency and planning for network utilization. The Yield Management solutions
portfolio utilizes the Scalable Data Warehousing solutions as a foundation.
For the communications industry, NCR also offers an Internet Commerce
solutions portfolio which helps integrate operational systems with Internet
capabilities. The solutions in this portfolio are designed to help
telecommunications companies reduce billing costs, enter new markets, build
profitable customer bases, and scale services to match the requirements of a
growing customer base.
Integrated within the Computer Systems Group at all levels are teams
focused on developing solutions to meet the needs of a variety of customers in
the communications industry and national accounts in industries other than the
retail and financial industries. These include professional services consultants
and customer support specialists who provide consulting services to help
customers design, integrate, install, and support Scalable Data Warehousing,
High Availability/Electronic Commerce, Yield Management, and Internet Commerce
solutions. NCR incorporates third-party products and software as required to
create individualized solutions for specific customer needs.
Target Markets and Distribution Channels
In addition to the Computer Systems Group's focus in the communications
industry, NCR's Computer Systems Group also markets scalable data warehousing
and High Availability/Electronic Commerce solutions to national accounts in a
number of industries other than the retail and financial industries.
NCR's computer products and solutions are marketed through a
combination of direct and indirect channels. In recent years, approximately 90%
of NCR's revenue from the Computer Systems Group's offerings has been generated
by the Company's direct sales force. The remaining revenues have historically
been generated from the indirect channel and through alliances with value-added
resellers, distributors, and OEMs.
4
Competition
NCR faces significant competition in the industries served by the
Computer Systems Group in all geographic areas where it operates. NCR believes
that key competitive factors in these markets are vendor experience, customer
referrals, database sophistication, support and professional service
capabilities, quality of the solutions or products, total cost of ownership,
industry knowledge of the vendor, and platform scalability. In addition, the
movement toward common industry standards (such as Intel processors and UNIX and
Microsoft operating systems) has accelerated product development, but has also
made differentiation more difficult. Commoditization has extended beyond PCs
into the server business. In the transaction processing market, customers
require powerful software, reliable hardware, and systems integration skills.
Many competitors offer one or two of these components, but NCR believes it is
one of few companies that can provide complete, open solutions.
Professional Services and Worldwide Customer Services
Solutions
NCR provides services to its customers through Professional Services
and Worldwide Customer Services organizations. These organizations deliver a
wide range of services required to design, implement, and maintain customers'
technology environments.
NCR's Professional Services team, consisting of 4,000 employees in more
than 100 countries, is an integral part of the solutions portfolios provided by
NCR's business units. These professional services include business and
technology consulting for data warehousing, project management for information
technology architecture, and systems integration.
Worldwide Customer Services provides a High Availability Networking
solutions portfolio in addition to staging and implementation services,
multivendor services, system support services, consulting, networking, managed
services, Year 2000 services, and industry-specific support services.
The High Availability Networking portfolio includes solutions designed
to ensure a customer's network from media to end-system meets the availability
requirements of applications and users and is aligned with overall business
objectives. NCR provides a continuum of network consulting services, support
services and products that help businesses plan, design, implement, and operate
network solutions to enhance profitability and competitiveness.
To provide delivery of consistent services on a global basis, Worldwide
Customer Services uses an integrated logistics network of remote services, parts
inventories, and replicated tools and methodologies. NCR employs approximately
15,000 customer service representatives located throughout 130 countries.
Target Markets and Competition
The markets for NCR's Professional Services and Worldwide Customer
Services are the retail, financial, and communications industries and national
accounts in other industries. The services organizations face significant
competition in the industries and geographies they serve, principally through
NCR's other business units.
Systemedia Group
Solutions
The Systemedia Group develops, produces, and markets a complete line of
consumable and media products for information systems, including transaction
processing media, business forms, and a full line of integrated equipment
solutions. Specific products offered include stock and customer paper rolls,
pressure sensitive labels, label/form combinations, thermal transfer ribbons,
impact inking media, high-speed laser forms, encoding products, mailers, and ink
jet media.
5
Systemedia integrates NCR consumables into the mix of solutions
provided by NCR, such as the Self-Service, Store Automation, and Payment
solutions. The Systemedia Group works closely with its customers to develop
specific solutions in areas such as inking, printer cassette design and
manufacture, thin film coating for thermal transfer ribbons, and labels and
label/form combinations.
Target Markets and Distribution Channels
The major industry segments targeted by the Systemedia Group include
general merchandise, food and drug, hospitality, financial, and consumer goods
manufacturing. The Systemedia Group has a direct sales force in 19 countries
focused on providing solutions to major accounts. In addition, Systemedia
solutions are sold through office product resellers, value-added resellers,
and telemarketing.
Competition
Competition in the consumable and media solutions business is
significant and varies by geographic area and product group. The primary areas
of competitive differentiation are typically quality, logistics and supply chain
management expertise, and total cost of ownership. While price is always a
factor, the Systemedia Group focuses on total cost of ownership for all of its
products and services. Total cost of ownership takes into account not only the
per unit cost of the media, but also service, usage, and support costs over the
life of the system.
Research and Development
Research and development expenditures for NCR are reported on page 6 of
NCR's 1997 Annual Report to Stockholders and are incorporated herein by
reference.
Seasonality
Seasonality information for NCR is reported on page 8 of NCR's 1997
Annual Report to Stockholders and is incorporated herein by reference.
Backlog
NCR's operating results and the amount and timing of revenue are
affected by numerous factors, including the volume, mix, and timing of orders
received during a period and conditions in the information technology industry
and in the general economy. The Company believes that backlog is not a
meaningful indicator of future business prospects due to the shortening of
product delivery schedules and the significant portion of revenue related to its
customer support services business, for which order information is not recorded.
Accordingly, NCR believes that backlog information is not material to an
understanding of its business.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
Sources and availability of raw materials information for NCR is
reported on page 8 of NCR's 1997 Annual Report to Stockholders and is
incorporated herein by reference.
Patents and Trademarks
NCR owns approximately 1,200 patents in the United States and 1,350 in
foreign countries. The foreign patents are generally counterparts of NCR's
United States patents. Many of the patents owned by NCR are licensed to others
and NCR is licensed to use certain patents owned by others. In connection with
the Distribution, NCR entered into an extensive cross-licensing agreement with
AT&T and Lucent Technologies Inc. ("Lucent"), a former subsidiary of AT&T. While
NCR's portfolio of patents and patent applications is of significant value to
NCR, the Company does not believe that any particular individual patent is
itself of material importance to NCR's business as a whole.
NCR has registered certain trademarks in the United States and in a
number of foreign countries. NCR considers the trademark "NCR" and many other of
its trademarks to be valuable assets.
6
Employees
At December 31, 1997, NCR had approximately 38,300 employees and
contractors.
Environmental Matters
Information regarding environmental matters is included in the material
captioned "Environmental Matters" on pages 26-27 of NCR's 1997 Annual Report to
Stockholders and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
At February 27, 1998, NCR operated approximately 40 research and
development and manufacturing facilities which occupy in excess of 4.4 million
square feet throughout the world. Of such worldwide facilities, on a square
footage basis, approximately 93% are owned and 7% are leased. At February 27,
1998, NCR also operated approximately 890 facilities, which include warehouse,
repair, office, and other miscellaneous sites, occupying in excess of 12.6
million square feet throughout the world. Of these facilities, on a square
footage basis, approximately 60% are owned and 40% are leased. NCR maintains

have sufficient productive capacity to meet its current needs.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS ON FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULE
To the Board of Directors of NCR Corporation
Our audit of the consolidated financial statements referred to in our report
dated January 21, 1998 appearing on page 11 of the 1997 Annual Report to
Stockholders of NCR Corporation (which report and consolidated financial
statements are incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K)
also included an audit of the Financial Statement Schedule listed in Item 14(d)
of this Form 10-K. In our opinion, this Financial Statement Schedule at and for
the year ended December 31, 1997 presents fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related
consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and
Financial Statement Schedule of NCR Corporation for the years ended December 31,
1996 and 1995 were audited by other independent accountants whose reports dated
January 21, 1997 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Stockholders and
Board of Directors of
NCR Corporation
We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of NCR Corporation and
subsidiaries (NCR) at December 31, 1996, and the related consolidated statements
of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the
two years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are
included on pages 12-28 of NCR's 1997 Annual Report to Stockholders. We have
also audited the related financial statement schedule in Item 14(d) of this Form
10-K. These financial statements are the responsibility of management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of NCR at December
31, 1996, and the consolidated results of its operations, changes in
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule
referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information
required to be included therein.
