PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General-
- -------GENERAL
Illinois Tool Works Inc. (the "Company") was founded in 1912 and
incorporated in 1915. The Company manufactures and markets a variety of products
and systems that provide specific, problem-solving solutions for a diverse
customer base worldwide. The Company has more than 300365 operations in 34
countries. The Company's business units are divided into twothree segments:
Engineered Components, and Industrial Systems and Consumables.Consumables, and Leasing and
Investments. Products in the Company's Engineered Components segment include
short lead-time plastic and metal components, fasteners and assemblies;
industrial fluids and adhesives; fastening toolstools; and welding products.
Industrial Systems and Consumables' products include longer lead-time systems
and related consumables for consumer and industrial packaging; marking, labeling
and identification systems; industrial spray coating equipment and systems; and
quality assurance equipment and systems. Leasing and Investments' activities
consist of making opportunistic investments that optimally utilize the Company's
cash flow and provide high returns.
In the first quarter of 1993, the Company acquired the Miller Group
Ltd.("Miller"), a manufacturer of arc welding equipment, through an exchange of
ITW voting Common Stock for all of the voting Common Stock of Miller. In early
1996, the Company acquired all of the voting stock of Hobart Brothers Company
("Hobart"), a manufacturer of welding products, in exchange for shares of ITW
voting common stock. As a result, the acquisition
hasMiller and Hobart acquisitions have been
accounted for as a poolingpoolings of interests in conformity with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles, specifically paragraphs 46 through 48 of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 16. Accordingly,The impact of Miller and Hobart on
consolidated operating revenues, net income and net income per share was not
significant. Therefore, the 1992 and 1995 financial statements have not been
restated to reflect the acquisitions of Miller and Hobart, respectively. The
results of operations for Miller and Hobart have been included in the Statement
of Income as of the beginning of 1993.1993 and 1996, respectively.
In late 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of
Azon Limited ("Azon"), an Australian manufacturer of strapping and other
industrial products. The impactacquisition has been accounted for as a purchase, and
accordingly, the acquired net assets have been recorded at their estimated fair
values at the date of Milleracquisition. The results of operations have been included
in the Statement of Income from the acquisition date, except for the Azon
businesses which are expected to be sold, which have not been consolidated.
Based on consolidatedthe assumption that the Azon acquisition had occurred on January 1,
1996 or January 1, 1995, the Company's pro forma operating revenues, net income
and net income per share for 1993 and 1992 waswould not significant. Therefore, the 1992
financial statements have not been restated to reflect the acquisition of
Miller.
In early 1996, the Company acquired all of the common stock of Hobart Brothers
Company ("Hobart") in exchange for shares of ITW voting common stock. The
acquisition will be accounted for as a pooling of interests in accordance with
APB No. 16. For the two months ended February 29, 1996, combined operating
revenues for the Company and Hobart were $731,843,000 and combined net income
was $60,511,000.significantly different.
During the five-year period ending December 31, 1995,1996, the Company acquired
and disposed of numerous other operations none of which individually had a materialdid not materially impact on
consolidated results.

of materials and energy has not resulted in any business interruptions or other
major problems, nor are any such problems anticipated.

The Company's growth has resulted from developing new and improved
products, broadening the application of established products, continuing efforts
to improve and develop new methods, processes and equipment, and from
acquisitions. Many new products are designed to reduce customers' costs by
eliminating steps in their manufacturing processes, reducing the number of parts
in an assembly, or by improving the quality of customers' assembled products.

with customers on specific applications. Identifiable research and development
costs determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles are
set forth on page 27 of the Company's 19951996 Annual Report to Stockholders.
