FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain sections of this report contain statements which may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. Although Raven Industries, Inc. believes that expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurances that its expectations will be achieved. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from expectations include general economic conditions, weather conditions which could affect certain of the company’s primary markets such as agriculture or construction, or changes in competition or the company’s customer base which could impact any of the company’s product lines.

RAVEN INDUSTRIES, INC.
FORM 10-K
year ended January 31, 2002

Item 1. Business

General

     Raven Industries, Inc. was incorporated in February 1956 under the laws of the State of South Dakota and began operations later that same year. The following terms — the company, Raven or the registrant — are intended to apply to Raven Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries listed in Exhibit 21 to this report. Raven is headquartered in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, employing approximately 850 persons in four states.

     The company began operations as a manufacturer of high-altitude research balloons. It has diversified over the years to supply specialized products for a number of markets, including industrial, recreation, agriculture and military/aerospace. Many of these product lines are an extension of technology and production methods developed in the original balloon business. The company’s pickup-truck topper product line was sold in the third quarter of fiscal 2000. Substantially all of the company’s plastic tank product lines were sold in the third quarter of fiscal 2001.

     The company has four ongoing business segments consisting of the Electronic Systems Division, Flow Controls Division, Engineered Films Division and Aerostar. Product lines have been grouped in these segments based on common technologies, production methods and raw materials. However, more than one business segment may serve each of the product markets identified above. Page 12 of the company’s Annual Report to Shareholders, incorporated herein by reference, provides financial information concerning the business segments, including businesses sold and for sale.

     Following is a summary of company net sales by principal product categories (dollars in thousands):

			FY 2002		FY 2001		FY 2000
Electronics manufacturing services			$	32,289	$	32,039	$	30,176
Flow control devices and accessories				23,178		16,758		13,520
Reinforced plastic sheeting				35,796		35,403		30,868
Specialty apparel				11,001		19,102		23,286
Other				9,754		10,058		10,012
Total ongoing operation sales				112,018		113,360		107,862
Businesses sold and for sale:
		Pickup-truck toppers		—		—		17,657
		Plastic tanks		3,500		16,232		19,632
		Feedmill controls		2,997		3,266		5,234
	Total sales		$	118,515	$	132,858	$	150,385

Business Segments

     Electronic Systems — Historically, the company’s Electronic Systems segment provided a variety of assemblies and controls to the United States Department of Defense and other military contractors. The company has expanded this segment’s capabilities in electronics manufacturing services (EMS) for commercial customers to offset a decline in military contracts. Assemblies manufactured by the Electronic Systems segment include communication, environmental control, computer and other products where high quality is critical. The Electronic Systems segment expanded its capacity in fiscal 2002 by purchasing System Integrators and moving it into its EMS facility in St. Louis, Missouri.

     EMS sales are made in response to competitive bid requests by commercial customers and military contractors. The level and nature of competition varies with the type of product, but the company frequently competes with a number of EMS manufacturers on any given bid request. The markets in which the company participates are highly competitive, with customers having many suppliers to choose from.

     Flow Controls — Flow control devices, used primarily for precision farming applications, are designed and produced within the company’s Flow Controls segment. These devices are also used for roadside and turf chemical spraying. The company has developed new products for field location control and chemical injection systems. The acquisition of Starlink in fiscal 2002 enhanced the company’s global positioning (GPS) capabilities. The combined technologies are expected to provide a competitive advantage in the support of precision agriculture in future years.

     Home office personnel sell flow control devices directly to original equipment manufacturers(OEMs) and independent third-party distributors. The company’s competitive advantage in this segment is product reliability, ease of use, product availability and service after the sale.

     Engineered Films — Products in the company’s Engineered Films segment include rugged reinforced plastic sheeting for industrial, construction and agricultural applications and high altitude balloons for public and commercial research.

     The company’s sales force sells plastic sheeting to independent third-party distributors in each of the various markets it serves. The company extrudes a significant portion of the film converted for its commercial products and believes it is one of the largest sheeting converters in the United States. A number of suppliers of sheeting compete with Raven on both price and product availability. To increase production of plastic sheeting, the company must make capital investments. An $8 million capital investment plan was begun in fiscal 2002 and is expected to be completed by January 31, 2003. This new equipment will provide capacity for up to $15 million in additional annual sales.

     This division also sells high-altitude research balloons directly to public agencies (usually funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) or commercial users. Demand for these products is small but stable. Raven is the largest balloon supplier for high-altitude research in the United States.

5

     Aerostar — The Aerostar segment of the company produces and sells custom-shaped advertising inflatables that have a number of uses including parade floats and advertising media. The company is the originator of modern hot-air ballooning and continues to be a leader in design and technical expertise. Aerostar also manufactures specialty apparel for a variety of activities, including hunting and fishing.

     Specialty apparel is a contract business sold by home office personnel to independent third-party distributors and catalog retailers. There are many outerwear manufacturers in the United States and abroad, and considerable competition exists. The market for domestically produced outerwear is declining because labor costs are significantly higher than those incurred by manufacturers outside the United States.

     The Aerostar segment sells balloons through an independent third-party dealer network. The company believes it has approximately one-third of the United States hot-air balloon market, although others are able to compete with lower-cost products. Inflatable displays are sold directly to corporate customers, advertising agencies and public relations firms and are subject to varying levels of competition. Generally, the more customized the product, the greater the company’s market share.

Businesses Sold and For Sale — The company has disposed of its pickup-truck topper and plastic tank businesses. The company’s Beta Raven Industrial Controls Division produces and sells computerized process-control systems to feedmills and to other markets.

Major Customer Information

     No customer accounted for more than 10 percent of consolidated sales in fiscal 2002 or for more than 10 percent of the company’s consolidated accounts receivable at January 31, 2002. In fiscal 2002, the top three customers in the Electronic Systems segment accounted for more than half of that segment’s sales. The loss of these accounts would adversely affect profitability, however, the company believes its relationships with these customers are strong. In addition, the breadth of the company’s product lines help protect it from the impact of losing any single customer.

Seasonal Working Capital Requirements

     Some seasonal demand exists in Flow Control’s agricultural market. The Flow Controls Division builds product in the fall for winter/spring delivery. Certain sales to agricultural customers offer spring dating terms for late fall and early winter shipments. The resulting fluctuations in inventory and accounts receivable balances may require, and have required, seasonal short-term financing.

6

Financial Instruments and Market Risk

     The principal financial instruments the company maintains are in accounts receivable and long-term debt. The company believes that the interest rate, credit and market risk related to these accounts is not significant. The company manages the risk associated with these accounts through periodic reviews of the carrying value of assets and liabilities and establishment of appropriate allowances in connection with the company’s internal controls and policies. Except for operating leases, the company does not enter into hedging, derivative instruments or off balance sheet financing.

Raw Materials

     The company obtains a wide variety of materials from numerous vendors. Principal materials include numerous electronic components for the Electronic Systems and Flow Controls segments, various plastic resins for the Engineered Films segment and fabrics for the Aerostar segment. The company has not experienced any significant shortages or other problems in purchasing raw materials to date, and alternative sources of supply are generally available. However, predicting future material shortages and the related potential impact on Raven is not possible.

Patents

      The company owns a number of patents. However, Raven does not believe that its business, as a whole, is materially dependent on any one patent or related group of patents. It believes the successful manufacture and sale of its products generally depend more upon its technical expertise and manufacturing skills.

Research and Development

     The business segments conduct ongoing research and development efforts. Most of the company’s research and development expenditures are directed toward new products in the Flow Controls segment. Total company research and development costs are disclosed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements located on page 26 of the Annual Report to Shareholders, incorporated herein by reference.

Environmental Matters

     Except as described below, the company believes that it is in compliance, in all material respects, with applicable federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Expenditures relating to compliance for operating facilities incurred in the past have not significantly affected the company’s capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

     In connection with the sale of substantially all of the assets of the company’s Glasstite, Inc. subsidiary, the company has agreed to assume responsibility for the investigation and remediation of any pre-October 29, 1999 environmental contamination at the company’s Glasstite pickup-truck topper facility in Dunnell, Minnesota as required by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

7

     Also, in connection with the sale of substantially all of the assets of the company’s Plastic Tank Division, the company has agreed to assume responsibility for the investigation and remediation of any pre-August 28, 2000 environmental contamination at the property located at 1813 E Avenue, Sioux Falls, S.D. in accordance with the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).

     The company and the purchasers of the company’s Glasstite subsidiary and Plastic Tank division have conducted preliminary environmental assessments of the properties used in these businesses. Although these assessments are still being evaluated by the MPCA and DENR, on the basis of the preliminary data available, there is no reason to believe that any activities which might be required as a result of the findings of the assessments will have a material effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow. As discussed in Note 5 to the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, located on pages 27 and 28 of the Annual Report to Shareholders, incorporated herein by reference, the company had accrued approximately $200,000 at January 31, 2002, its best estimate of probable costs to be incurred related to these matters.

Backlog

     As of February 1, 2002, the company’s backlog of firm orders totaled $33.8 million. Backlog amounts as of February 1, 2001 and 2000 were $38.2 million and $44.9 million, respectively. Lower order levels for Aerostar specialty apparel, as described on page 6 of this document, account for most of the decline.

Employees

     As of January 31, 2002, the company had approximately 850 employees, 770 in an active status. Following is a summary of active employees by segment: Electronic Systems — 190; Flow Controls — 180; Engineered Films — 130; Aerostar — 190; Business for Sale — 30, Administration — 50. None of the employees are represented by a union and management believes its employee relations are satisfactory.

* Leased, short-term

Most of the company’s manufacturing plants also serve as distribution centers and contain offices for sales, engineering and manufacturing support staff. The company believes that its properties are, in all material respects, in good condition and are adequate to meet existing production needs. The company owns 6.95 acres of undeveloped land adjacent to the other owned property in Sioux Falls which is available for expansion.

Item 3. Pending Legal Proceedings

The company is responsible for investigation and remediation of environmental contamination at two of its sold facilities as described under “Environmental Matters” on pages 7-8. In addition, the company is involved as a defendant in lawsuits, claims or disputes arising in the normal course of its business. The settlement of such claims cannot be determined at this time. Management believes that any liability resulting from these claims will be substantially mitigated by insurance coverage.

9

Accordingly, management does not believe the ultimate outcome of these matters will be significant to its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

There was no matter submitted during the fourth quarter to a vote of security holders of the company.
