In 1968 and 1969 the generally positive situation in ship repairs continued. In 1970 ADM had a very good year with a 20% increase in turnover. 1971 saw another 25% increase in turnover. In 1972 ADM still had a small profit of 765,000 guilders. In 1973 there was a loss of 324,000 guilders. In 1974 there was again a profit of 2.2 million guilders.

These lands belonged to the municipality and were referred to as 'Buitenvogelwijkslanden', in the eastern part of Volewijk headland. 60 ares of water could be rented to place the floating dry dock. The price for the land would be 72,000 guilders under stipulation that it could only be used for the dry dock and connected activities. Otherwise the price would be 120,000 guilders, i.e. 6 or 10 guilders per centiare. The area of water could be hired for 50 cents an are per year, i.e. 30 guilders a year. 814:, the very large shipyard and holding which owned NDSM then thought of a plan to merge the repair activities of NDSM and ADM in a new company. ADM had already reorganized, and did not like this idea for merger with a weaker partner. By March 1978, the merger of the repair activities of both companies, and the end of shipbuilding at NDSM was government policy. The board of ADM had not been consulted about the merger idea. Worse, it had not even received an official message. 349:) for small repairs, and was able to pay 2.5% dividend. In 1880 Koninginnedok was a bit more busy, and the Vijzeldok also had some business. Dividend over 1880 was 7.925%. SMN then offered 100 of her shares at 110% on 10 May 1881, which were sold. ADM also asked the municipality to buy 7.2 ares more land. In 1881 the dry dock was occupied about 90% of the year, and dividend was 7.99%. That year the dry dock also served 29 inland steam vessels. Over 1882 dividend was 9%. 265:
to the city. This started a discussion in which some argued that if Amsterdam wanted to subsidize ADM in order to attract SMN, this should be done by other means, because the lower price would depreciate all grounds in the surroundings. In the end, the council lowered the price to 24,000 guilders. On 9 January 1878 the conditions of the deal were confirmed by the municipal council.

Therefore ADM offered 200 new shares at 150% on 6 January 1913. Of course with preference for the existing shareholders, at one share for each two a shareholder had.

In 1963 the downturn in ADM's business became palpable. In 1964 the construction of new ships led to serious losses, and so shipbuilding was stopped. In 1965 the repair business was profitable, but the labor cost per hour in 1965 was double that of 1960. Turnover in non-shipping business grew from 2%

In the early twentieth century dividend remained high. In 1901 the municipality of Amsterdam sold a landward strip of 278.8 mm by 20 m to ADM for 11,152 guilders. In 1902 ADM existed 25 years. It then had 370 permanent staff, and regularly employed about 200 others. The company continued to

From 1950 till 1965 ADM also built new ships. Because ADM did not have slipways, this was done by building sections. These were assembled in dry dock 2, and then launched by lowering the dry dock. From the fact that this was done in dry dock 2, one can deduce that this pertained to relatively small

When the new dry dock was taken into use in January 1925, ADM asked for a new terrain. This would be a lease of 116,500 m on the Zijkanaal naar Nieuwendam (see 1905 map). The terrain would be used for the new dock and related activities. Meanwhile business was not good, and ADM twice cut wages

In 1877 there was also a competing plan for a large dry dock in Amsterdam. This was made by C. and J. von Lindern from Alblasserdam, and would also be realized. This might also explain the interest of SMN. If somebody (i.e. Von Lindern) created a suitable dry dock in Amsterdam or at Nieuwediep, the

The ADM plan was conceived by A.A. Bienfait, J. Boissevain, P.E. Tegelberg and G.A. Tindal. They first had engineers design a plan for a dry dock that could receive the biggest ship that could pass the North Sea lock of the canal. They then asked the municipality for a place to station the dry dock

In late 1912 ADM had four dry docks, a terrain of 80,000 m, and workshops of 11,000 m. Just like Juliandok was to be lengthened, the terrains and workshops would also be expanded. Nevertheless, there were still only 400 shares in ADM, and its open bonds amounted to 860,000 guilders.
