2 - decidedly different sources of earnings a different mix of businesses than the Company of 1966. In allocating our resources to the growth opportunities, we have had a major emphasis on service and materials businesses, in addition to the manufacture of equipment. SERVICE BUSINESSES As you know, service businesses are a fast-growing part of most industrial economies, including the United States. General Electric's major service ventures have been our highly successful Information Services computer network; our financial subsidiary, General Electric Credit Corporation; our Broadcasting and Cable subsidiaries; and our product repair and maintenance business. These service businesses are producing above average growth in earnings, on the order of 17% a year. Consider the repair and maintenance service businesses: Apparatus Service, Installation and Service Engineering, Consumer and Major Appliance Service, and Aircraft Engine Service. The earnings contributions of these businesses have grown at an annual rate close to 20% per year in the last five years, at superior levels of return on investment. The opportunity to continue this growth rate is based on increasing our share of equipment services both GE equipment and the equipment of other manufacturers. And this is international business. For example, in 1966 we had 54 domestic and 6 international apparatus service shops. Today there are 128 domestic and 36 international shops, and the list keeps growing. And these service businesses are relatively immune to foreign competition and economic recession.
