Sonoco delivered on its key performance initiatives in 2005. The Company experienced sustained quarterly earnings increases, margin improvement and double-digit sales growth driven by acquisitions, improved company wide volume coming from significant new consumer product and market development, and geographical expansion. Our employees remained focused on meeting the needs of our customers while improving productivity and managing costs in all of our businesses. We continued our efforts to successfully hedge the majority of our natural gas needs to provide more certainty of energy costs, and we maintained a positive price/cost relationship, despite rising costs in most raw materials.

With the fastest productivity growth and biggest drop in unit labor costs in seven years, the numbers are certainly worth shouting about, but as yet we are far from convinced that much of the improvement is structural. Mr. Greenspan is of the same view, which is why rates are going up no matter what happens to productivity growth.

Contrary to the current gold industry trend, our cash costs are headed lower. Coupled with strong metals prices and the significant production increases we continue to achieve, we are well positioned for strong free cash flows in the years ahead. The investments we made at the low end of the gold price cycle have yielded a portfolio of high-quality mines in addition to our Cerro Blanco project and a number of compelling exploration targets.

Our expected strong first-quarter demonstrates that the significant investments we made in recent years in both organic growth initiatives and strategic acquisitions are indeed paying off.

Streamlining rights-of-way clearance, reducing leased line price, and dropping artificial regulatory costs are some of the measures which have to be taken.

Despite lower domestic-brand new vehicle sales during the fourth quarter, our company was able to realize meaningful improvements in our overall profit performance. This improvement was made possible by strong performances in our used vehicle and parts and service businesses, two key areas of strategic focus. We were able to increase revenues in both areas, and I was particularly pleased with our dramatic improvement in managing our used vehicle inventory.

The productivity advance will also serve as a powerful backstop for the U.S. dollar, as it creates an environment that is good for the rates of return on U.S. assets, especially compared to other countries where both productivity growth and economic growth are lower than in the U.S.,

There is a huge amount of consolidation in the industry, and that consolidation is smaller companies all becoming larger through mergers or acquisitions or any kind of arrangement. So what's really going on is there's a huge pressure to lower their costs.

The next four years will be challenging as the company must increase productivity and reign in rising costs to remain competitive.

Morale is a direct consequence of being treated well by a company, and employees return the 'gift' of good treatment with higher productivity and work quality, lower turnover (which reduces recruiting and training costs), a decrease in workers shirking their duties and a superior pool of job applicants. These gains translate directly into higher company profitability.

Having said that, however, I should note that the current downturn in this sector is an unusually mild one compared with previous cycles.

As part of these changes, we are streamlining the management structure of the company both in the U.S. and abroad, and we are taking measures to more closely coordinate our marketing efforts around the world,

As a company, we will deliver significant productivity improvements in 2006 that will offset a portion of the expected increases for energy-related costs in commodities and transportation across our company. We will maintain our focus on the profitable growth and expansion of our businesses to meet the world's demand for energy-efficient building materials and glass-composite solutions.

We've never said we wouldn't consider acquisitions; we've said we rely more on organic growth. We're obviously a company that doesn't have a history of doing many acquisitions; if we have this conversation in 10 years, that'll probably still be characteristic of us.
