Driver. AEROSPACE FIRMS EARN 1.8% ON SALES ‘Washington — The aerospace Industry achieved dramatic breakthroughs in battle to conquer space, but when it came to making money r— their success was far from spectacular. The Securities and Exchange Commission reported that the earnings rate of aerospace industry, in 1961, amounted to 1.8 per cent of sales. This compares with an average sales-to-earnings ratio of 4.3 per cent for all other manufacturing industries. The industry’s net profit, after provision for federal income taxes, amounted to $257 million on sales of nearly sl4 billton. George F. Hannaum, vicepresident of the Aerospace Industries Association, -said the aerospace industry’s net profit as a percentage of net worth has shown a sharp drop in the five years. In 1957, net profit amounted to 18.2 per cent of net worth, while in 1961, it amounted to 9.2 per cent. Writing in Aerospace, official AlA.publication, Hannaum sta- 1 ted: “The -effect of the low ear- , nings rate of the aerospace in- i dustry is accentuated by the I volatile, shifting technology that is its hallmark. The aerospace industry, reinvests the highest | -proportion of its earnings in -facilities and equipment of all. manufacturing industries. Aggressive research and development programs are the heart of new business.’’
