History and Business—Company's organization was a manufacturer
and
seller of
radio and radio phonograph combinations prior to
May 31, 1942, when production of radios for civilian use was stopped
by governmental order.
Since that time, the company has engaged
solely in the development and production of radio, radar and other
electronic equipment for the Untied States Military Services,.
The company's corporate predecessor, Continental Radio and Tele¬
vision Corp., of 111., was organized and began the sale of small table
model radios in April of 1934, the sets being manufactured by Radio
Products Corp., of 111.
In Dec. of 1940 company, then known as
Continental Radio and Television Corp., of Del., succeeded to the
assets of the Illinois corporation of similar name.
On Dec. 31, 1942,
it acquired the manufacturing business and assets of Radio Products
Corp. of Delaware, successor to the Illinois corporation of similar
name, and on Nov. 13,
1943, it adopted its present name of Admiral
Corporation.
Shortly after V-E Day, the company

In the event of termination of a part or all of Government contracts
and orders, the company's business will be adversely affected for a
period.
However, no major reconversion problem is anticipated in the
radio field, except for delays incident to acquisition of necessary in¬
ventories, inasmuch as no substantial change in operations will be
required.
Except for minor surpluses, the company now has no inven¬
tory of parts or raw materials except that
acquired in connection
-with the company's existing Government commitments, only a small
partion of which is usable in the company's civilian radio products.
The company's post-war products will include radios, radio phono¬
graphs,
and accessories,
refrigerators, home freezers and electric

"In the domestic field," says Mr. Hardy, "the needs of our railroads
for
equipment remain pressing and to a great extent unrelieved.
The
productive capacity of the equipment-making industry of our
country will be heavily taxed
in meeting the requirements of the
'program of our Government for the building of equipment for use
abroad.
While it is expected that your company will get its fullshare of the business arising out of this Governmental program, your
management is keenly alive to the needs of our own roads. With its
numerous
plants/ unexcelled facilities for production, your company
is in excellent condition to respond quickly and effectively to whatever
demand may be made upon it to supply such needs/
As to reconversion,
Mr. Hardy says that the problem will be less
serious than to many concerns whose activities during the past few
years have been given over entirely to war work.
In common with practically all other American concerns engaged
in war work, the company has had some, additional cutbacks, some
repricings, some terminations and some extensions of scheduled de¬
liveries.
Since October, 1939, when the company was awarded the
"pioneer" tank contract, down to April 30. 1945, the company and its
two wholly-owned subsidiaries have booked war work orders of more
than $1,000,000,000.
//
Mr. Hardy again points to the fact, as he did in the April 30, 1944
report, that the company has no fixed debt, no bank or other loans
outstanding, and that -with resources ample to meet all of its obli¬
gations, present or prospective, "the strong, healthy and liquid con¬
dition of your company continues unimpaired, and there is no reason
to fear any change in that record."
. .. /: •/.......
Reference is
made to successful completion during the year of a
merger of The Brill Corp. and American Car & Foundry Motors Co.,
in which the chairman states;
"Company held very substantial inter¬
ests and from the successor ACF-Brill Motors Co. it received in cash
and securities, at market value, more than sufficient to pay its claim
as
a creditor of Motors and
its entire investment in Brill."

Hunt-Spiller was incorporated in 1922 and is the continuation of a
foundry business which was started in Boston, Mass., in 1810.
It is
presently engaged in the manufacture of five main classes of castings
and machined parts, as follows: (X) Gun iron castings and machined
parts for wear-resisting parts of steam locomotives, (2) Bronze and
combination bronze and iron machined packing rings for use , on steam
locomotives, (3) Gun iron castings' and machined parts for use in
stationary and marine diesef engines, (4) Steel castings and machined
parts for general marine and industrial use and also steel pistons and
parts for railroad locomotives, and (5) Automotive brake drums.
Hunt-Spiller's peacetime production has continued down
through
the war period
Hunt-Spiller has no conversion problems.
It has
produced no war products as , such.
However, in 1942 22.05% of its
sales, in 1943 29.23% of its sales and in 1944 25.37% of its sales
may be viewed as indirect war production.
The products of HuntSpiller are now sold approximately' 75% to the railroads and 25%
to customers in the marine and industrial fields and there has been
no
material variation In these percentages beginning with the year
1939.
Hunt-Spiller's business is not done on contract.
It is based
upon orders received from customers, as their requirements^ demand.—

profit-sharing program.
Under the terms of the Trust 5%
of the consolidated net earnings
of the company and its subsidiaries, before taxes, are contributed each
year to the Trust fund.
Every employee of the company with over
one
year, of
service participates in the profits of the company on
exactly the same basis regardless of occupation or position.
Employees
with one to five years of service have their participation based upon
100"c of their annual earnings, and employees with five or more years
of service share in the fund on the basis of 150%
of their earnings.
Employees are given a vested interest in their share of the profits as
soon as the funds are paid to the Trustee and nothing, including resig¬
nation, discharge, permanent disability or death can alter or change
;their rights to funds so deposited.
" Money contributed to the Profit Sharing Trust by the company is
invested entirely in Government securities.
No withdrawals from the
Trust are permitted until an employee completes 10 years of partici¬
pation in the Trust and thereafter the employee withdraws his equity
at the rate of one-tenth per year.

From the time of organization in 1896 company operated for. approxi¬

another company.
In 1901 the company purchased a factory at Coal
City, 111., and began the manufacture of wire rope from purchased!
wire,. : Because, of inadequate facilities at Coal City, it later leased
a
wire mill at. Fostc-ria, Ohio, and . in 1912 a plant site was acquired'
in Kenosha, Wis.,, on which the company erected a wire mill, including
facilities for heat treating processes, and complete facilities for the
manufacture of wire rope, the manufacture of reels,' etc.:
'/
During the 44 years that. the.company has been engaged iri manu-;
facturing, the principal product has been wire rope.
Such rope, made,
in sizes varying from sand of-an inch to 2% inches in diameter, is
made from wire, mosti>of which is drawn by the company from hot
rolled rodsjiWhich it purchases on Its own specifications from various
steel companies.
A limited amount of^wive rope Is manufactured from
finished wire purchased from others.
In the years piior to 1941, 80%or more of
total sales of the company, measured in dollar volume,:
were accounted for by sales of wire rope.

15 cents per share" payable on July 16, 1945, the net assets of cor¬
poration ;on/ June 30, 1945,r, amounted; to $10,303,702/'equivalent to
$28.62? per share i.on. the 360,000 ■ shares of outstanding capital stock.
The net assets -value per. share was $26.46 on
March 31, 1945 and
$25.97 on Dec. 31, 1944.
In computing each of these per share net
asset values, no deductions have been made for Federal income taxes
on
unrealized appreciation.;
If the unrealized appreciation had been
realized on these dates, the Federal income taxes thereon wbuld have
amounted
to

$414,000

volume of business.
The additional working capital has in the past
been
obtained through borrowings,
the maximum
amount of
such
loans outstanding being $117,400,000 in the early part of

The
effect- of increasing the company's working capital through the sale
of tjbe preferred stock will be to reduce the amounts required to be
borrowed -from banks, but it is the intention of the company to
continue to supplement its working capital as increased by the net
proceeds

stock by
borrowings, particularly during the

Overshadowing these and other disadvantages that could be cited
is the marked undesirability of casually mortgaging the future, par¬
