BUSINESS RISKS
Great Lakes Chemical Corporation is including the following cautionary
statement in this Annual Report of Form 10-K to make applicable and take
advantage of the new "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking statement made by, or on
behalf of, the Company. The factors identified in this cautionary statement
are important factors (but not necessarily all important factors) that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statement made by, or on behalf of, the Company.
Where any such forward-looking statement includes a statement of the
assumptions or basis underlying such forward-looking statement, the Company
cautions that, while it believes such assumptions or basis to be reasonable and
makes them in good faith, assumed facts or basis almost always vary from actual
results, and
3
5
the differences between assumed facts or basis and actual results can be
material, depending upon the circumstances. Where, in any forward-looking
statement, the Company, or its management, expresses an expectation or belief
as to future results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and
believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the
statement of expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished.
Taking into account the foregoing, certain factors, including but not limited
to, those listed below may cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed in any forward-looking statement made by, or on behalf of, the
Company.
- - Economic factors over which the Company has no control, including
changes in inflation, tax rates, interest rates and foreign currency
exchange rates.
- - Competitive factors such as pricing pressures on key products and cost
and availability of key raw materials.
- - Governmental factors including laws and regulations and judicial
decisions related to the production or use of key products such as
alkyl lead compounds, bromine and bromine derivatives.
- - The difficulties and uncertainties inherent in new product
development. New product candidates that appear promising in
development may fail to reach the market because of safety concerns,
inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals, difficulty or
excessive costs to manufacture, or infringements of the patents or
intellectual property rights of others.
- - Legal factors including unanticipated litigation of product liability
claims; antitrust litigation; environmental matters; and patent
disputes with competitors which could preclude commercialization of
products or negatively affect the profitability of existing products.
- - Inability to obtain existing levels of product liability insurance or
denial of insurance coverage following a major product liability claim.
- - Changes in tax laws, including future changes in tax laws related to
the remittance of foreign earnings or investments in foreign countries
with favorable tax rates.
- - Changes in accounting standards promulgated by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission,
and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants which are
adverse to the Company.
- - Internal factors such as changes in business strategies and the impact
of cost control efforts and business combinations.
- - Loss of brine leases or inability to produce bromide ions in commercial
quantities due to depletion of resources or other causes beyond the
Company's control.
- - Future profitability of alkyl lead compounds is highly dependent upon
the rate of market decline; the mix of customer and regions where alkyl
lead compounds are sold and the economics of refinery customer related
to achieving octane ratings.
1996 DEVELOPMENTS
The Business Profile on page 6 and the Review of Operations on pages 10 through
21 of the 1996 Annual
4
6
Report to Stockholders are incorporated herein by reference.
Raw Materials
The sources of essential raw materials for bromine are the brine from
company-owned wells in Arkansas and sea water extraction plants in Europe. The
Arkansas properties are located atop the Smackover lime deposits, which
constitute a vast underground sea of bromine-rich brine. The area between
ElDorado and Magnolia, Arkansas, (located about 35 miles west of ElDorado)
provides the best known geological location for bromine production and both
major domestic bromine manufacturers are located there. Based on projected
production rates, the Company's brine reserves are conservatively estimated to
be adequate for the foreseeable future.
Furfural is extracted from agricultural by-products and waste materials such as
corncobs, sugar cane bagasse, rice hulls and oat hulls. Alternative uses for
these by-products are becoming increasingly more common which is reducing
availability and escalating prices. Other materials used in the chemical
processes are obtained from outside suppliers through purchase contracts.
Supplies of these materials are believed to be adequate for the Company's
future operations.
International Operations
Great Lakes has a substantial presence in foreign markets. The Company's
investment in foreign countries is principally in Western Europe and represents
$1.4 billion or 53 percent of total assets.
Sales to customers in foreign countries (primarily Europe and the Far East)
amount to 61, 64 and 64 percent of total sales for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. Approximately 10, 14, and 15 percent of
these foreign sales, respectively for the three years shown, are products
exported from the U.S., with the balance of the Company's international sales
primarily being products manufactured and sold by the Company's European
subsidiaries and branches. The profitability on foreign sales (including U.S.
exports and foreign manufactured products, except Octel) approximates those for
domestic operations. Because of value-added pricing, Octel's alkyl lead
products have a higher profitability than do most of the Company's other
products.
The geographic segment data contained in the note "Industry Segments and
Foreign Operations" of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on page 39 of
the 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders is incorporated herein by reference.
Customers and Distribution
During the last three years, no single customer accounted for more than 10
percent of Great Lakes' total consolidated sales. The Company has no material
contracts or subcontracts with government agencies. A major portion of the
Company's sales are sold to industrial or commercial users for use in the
production of other products. Some products, such as recreational water
treatment chemicals and supplies, are sold to a large number of retail pool
stores, mass merchandizers and distributors. Some export sales are marketed
through distributors and brokers.
The Company's business does not normally reflect any material backlog of orders
at year-end.
Competition
Great Lakes is in competition with businesses producing the same or similar
products as well as businesses producing products intended for similar use.
There is one other major bromine producer in the United States
5
7
which competes with the Company in varying degrees, depending on the product
involved, with respect to the sale of bromine and bromine derivatives. There
is also one major overseas manufacturer of bromine and brominated products
which competes with the Company in the United States and elsewhere. In
addition, there are several small producers in the U.S. and overseas which are
competitors in several individual products. The Company is a major producer of
furfural and furfuryl alcohol that competes in the major geographic markets.
The Company is a major producer of alkyl lead. In the polymer stabilizers
area, the Company competes with a significantly larger supplier across this
entire product line and with a number of smaller companies in individual
product areas. The Company competes with several manufacturers and
distributors of swimming pool and spa chemicals and equipment.
Principal methods of competition are price, product quality and purity,
technical services and ability to deliver promptly. The Company is able to
move quickly in providing new products to meet identified market demands, and
believes its production costs are among the lowest in the world. These
factors, combined with high technical skills, allow the Company to compete
effectively.
Seasonality and Working Capital
The products which the Company sells to the agricultural and swimming pool
markets, exhibit some seasonality; however, the effect on overall Company sales
and profits is not material. Seasonality results in the need to build
inventories for rapid delivery at certain times of the year. The pool product
season is strongest during the first six months, requiring a build-up of
inventory at the beginning of the year. Except for certain arrangements with
distributors and dealers of swimming pool and spa products, customers are not
permitted to return unsold material at the end of a season. Extended credit
terms are granted only in cases where the Company chooses to do so to meet
competition.
The alkyl lead products have somewhat larger working capital requirements than
do the Company's other major products, because of extended distribution lines
and credit terms for large volume refinery customers.
The effect of the above items on working capital requirements is not material.
Research and Development and Patents
Research and development expenditures are included in the note "Research and
Development Expense" of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on page
39 of the 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders and is incorporated herein by
reference. The Company holds no patents, licenses, franchises or concessions
which are essential to its operations.
Environmental and Toxic Substances Control
The Company recognizes its responsibility for the sound environmental
management of its businesses and operations. In partial fulfillment of this
responsibility, the Company's domestic chemical manufacturing operations
subscribe to the comprehensive environmental stewardship program developed by
the Chemical Manufacturers Association known as Responsible Care.
The Company is in material compliance with all environmental laws and
regulations to which it is subject.
Employees
The Company has approximately 7,000 employees.

countries. Most principal plants are owned. Listed under Item 1 above in a
table captioned Products and Services are the principal locations at which
products are manufactured, distributed or marketed.
The Company leases warehouses, distribution centers and space for offices
throughout the world. All of the Company's facilities are in good repair,
suitable for the Company's businesses, and have sufficient space to meet
present marketing demands at an efficient operating level.
Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no material pending legal proceedings involving the Company, its
subsidiaries or any of its properties. Furthermore, no director, officer or
affiliate of the Company, or any associate of any director or officer is
involved, or has a material interest in, any proceeding which would have a
material adverse effect on the Company.
Item 103 of Regulation S-K requires disclosure of administrative or judicial
proceedings arising under any federal, state or local provisions dealing with
protection of the environment, if the monetary sanctions might exceed $100,000.
There are currently no such proceedings.
Item 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
