MANAGEMENTS STATEMENT REGARDING UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The results of operations presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Although the Company believes that all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented are included and that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, these consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Forms 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

ICN PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of ICN Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the Company) and all of its majority-owned subsidiaries. Minority interest in results of operations of consolidated subsidiaries, including Ribapharm Inc. (Ribapharm), represents the minority shareholders share of the income or loss of such consolidated subsidiaries. The minority interest in the consolidated balance sheets reflect the original investment by the minority shareholders in these consolidated subsidiaries, along with their proportional share of the earnings or losses of these subsidiaries adjusted for any dividends, as appropriate. Investments in 20% through 50% owned affiliated companies are included under the equity method where the Company exercises significant influence over operating and financial affairs. Investments in less than 20% owned companies or 20% through 50% owned companies where the Company does not exercise significant influence over operating and financial affairs are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Comprehensive Income: Accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized losses on marketable equity securities and minimum pension liability. Other comprehensive loss has not been recorded net of any tax provision or benefit as the Company does not expect to realize any significant tax benefit or expense from these items.
Per Share Information: In 2003, the Companys Board of Directors declared a first and second quarter cash dividend of $0.0775 per share, which was paid on April 23 and July 25, 2003, respectively. While the Company has historically paid quarterly cash dividends, there can be no assurance that the Company will continue to do so.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets: In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. During the second quarter of 2002, the Company completed the transitional impairment test required by SFAS 142. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $25,332,000 which was offset by a benefit of $3,541,000 for the write-off of negative goodwill. The net amount of $21,791,000 has been recorded as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the six months ended June 30, 2002.
At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, amortizable intangible assets were as follows (in thousands):

Estimated amortization expense for each of the five years ending December 31, 2006 is $30,000,000.
Stock-Based Compensation: The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure. Compensation cost for stock-based compensation issued to employees has been measured using the intrinsic value method provided by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for options granted under the stock option plan as all options granted under the Companys stock option plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Had compensation cost for the Companys stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards in the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 consistent with the

Under the Companys Amended and Restated 1998 Stock Option Plan (the Option Plan), all outstanding options immediately vested as a result of the Change of Control that occurred as a result of the May 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (See Note 5). The pro forma amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 include the expense of all unvested options under the Option Plan vesting in these periods.
Reclassifications: Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation, with no effect on previously reported net income or stockholders equity.
2. | Discontinued Operations |
In June 2002, the Company initiated a strategic review that included retaining investment bankers and a consulting firm. As a result of this strategic review, in the second half of 2002 the Company made the decision to divest its Russian Pharmaceuticals segment, Biomedicals segment, Photonics business, raw materials businesses and manufacturing capability in Central Europe and Circe unit.
The results of the Discontinued Businesses have been reflected as discontinued operations in the consolidated condensed financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The consolidated condensed financial statements have been reclassified to conform to discontinued operations presentation for all historical periods presented.
In June 2003, the Company sold its Russian Pharmaceuticals segment and certain assets of its Biomedicals segment. The Company received gross proceeds of $55,000,000 in cash for the Russian Pharmaceuticals segment and 727,990 shares of its common stock, which had a fair market value of approximately $12,369,000, for the assets of its Biomedicals segment. The Company recorded a net loss on disposal of discontinued operations of $6,596,000, net of a tax benefit of approximately $9,542,000 related to the sale of these businesses in the quarter ended June 30, 2003. Deferred tax assets of approximately $34,000,000 related to the businesses sold have been reclassified from net assets of discontinued operations to Deferred tax assets, net, as of June 30, 2003 in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
The Company disposed of the Circe unit in the fourth quarter of 2002 for a nominal sales price.
The Company disposed of its Photonics business in two stages. First, it discontinued the medical services business in September 2002. Second, the Company sold the laser device business in March 2003 for approximately $505,000.
The Company is actively marketing for sale the remaining Biomedicals business segment, Dosimetry, and the raw materials businesses and manufacturing capability in Central Europe. The Company expects all of the remaining discontinued operations will be sold by the end of 2003.

There were no non-recurring and other unusual charges in the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.
Based on a number of factors including changes in market conditions and changes in strategic direction, the Company evaluated the net realizable value of certain long-lived assets, including capitalized offering costs related to the proposed public offering of ICN International AG, the Companys corporate aircraft and other assets. The Company concluded that due to the passage of time and the strategic business review, the capitalized offering costs of ICN International AG of $18,295,000 should be written-off. Also, an impairment charge of $9,100,000 was recorded for the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the corporate aircraft, as determined by appraisals.
The Company incurred a significant amount of professional fees in connection with proxy contests in 2002. Proxy contest expenses were $6,261,000 and $7,382,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively.
4. | Ribapharm Initial Public Offering, Debt Repurchase and Ribapharm Tender Offer |
In April 2002, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 29,900,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Ribapharm, previously a wholly-owned subsidiary, representing 19.93% of the total outstanding common stock of Ribapharm (the Ribapharm Offering). In connection with the Ribapharm Offering, the Company received net cash proceeds of $276,611,000 and recorded a gain on the sale of Ribapharms stock of $262,949,000, net of offering costs.
In connection with the Ribapharm Offering, the Company paid cash bonuses to its officers, directors and employees totaling $47,839,000 in April 2002. The Company is seeking to recover a portion of these bonuses (See Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies Derivative and Class Actions). Additionally, the Company paid other professional fees of $13,000,000 related to the structuring of Ribapharm in April 2002. These amounts are included on the Companys statements of income in selling, general and administrative expenses.
On April 17, 2002, the Company used the proceeds of the Ribapharm Offering to complete its tender offer and consent solicitation for all of its outstanding 8 3/4% Senior Notes due 2008. The redemption of these notes resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $43,268,000.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In June 2003, the Company commenced an exchange offer to acquire all of publicly traded shares of Ribapharm common stock for $5.60 per share. The Company amended the exchange offer to increase the offer price to $6.25 per share in August 2003. The exchange offer expires on August 19, 2003, and is contingent on the Companys acquiring a minimum of 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of Ribapharm not held by the Company, or the officers and directors of Ribapharm and the Company.
5. | Change of Control |
As a result of the May 29, 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, three persons nominated by Franklin Mutual Advisors, LLC and Iridian Asset Management LLC were elected to the Board of Directors. Under the terms of employment agreements with some key executives, a long-term stock incentive plan and the Option Plan, the results of the 2002 election, together with the results of the 2001 election, constitute a change of control (the Change of Control).
Under the terms of a long-term incentive plan, all restricted stock awards vested immediately upon the Change of Control on June 11, 2002. As a result, compensation expense of $12,022,000 was recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2002.
The Option Plan provides that all options immediately vested and that an option holder had sixty days following the Change of Control to elect to surrender his or her nonqualified options to the Company for a cash payment equal to the excess of the highest closing market price of the stock during the 90 days preceding the Change of Control, which was $32.50 per share, or the closing market price on the day preceding the date of surrender, whichever is higher, over the exercise price for the surrendered options. During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Company recorded a charge of $61,400,000 related to the cash payment obligation under the Option Plan.
In addition, on June 19, 2002, Mr. Milan Panic, the Companys former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, resigned with immediate effect from his positions as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and from all positions he held as an officer or director of any of the Companys affiliates. Mr. Panic also resigned as one of the Companys employees with effect from June 30, 2002 and is no longer one of the Companys directors as of May 22, 2003. In connection with Mr. Panics termination, the Company recorded severance expense of $12,000,000 in the second quarter of 2002, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

8. Related Party Transactions
In April 2001, the Company made a loan to Mr. Milan Panic, the former Chairman of the Board and former Chief Executive Officer, of $2,731,519 as part of the Stock Option Program. On June 27, 2003, the Company accepted 173,066 shares of the Companys common stock with a fair market value of approximately $2,925,000 as payment in full on the loan and accrued interest.
9. Commitments and Contingencies
Ribapharm Tender Offer Litigation: On June 2003, seven purported class actions on behalf of certain stockholders of Ribapharm were filed against the Company, Ribapharm and certain directors and officers of Ribapharm in the Delaware Court of Chancery. Six of these complaints were consolidated under the caption In re Ribapharm Inc. Shareholders Litigation, Consol. C.A. No. 20337. The seventh suit has not yet been formally consolidated into C.A. No. 20337 but is proceeding in coordination with the consolidated case. On June 26, 2003, the plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed a First Amended Class Action Complaint naming only the Company as a defendant. The First Amended Class Action Complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company breached its fiduciary duties as a controlling stockholder of Ribapharm in connection with its tender offer for the shares of Ribapharm it did not already own. On August 4, 2003, the Company and the plaintiffs reached an agreement in principle to settle these lawsuits and, after settlement papers are prepared, will present that settlement to the Court of Chancery for its approval.
On June 25, 2003, the Company instituted a suit captioned ICN Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. Ribapharm, Inc., Daniel J. Paracka, Santo J. Costa, Gregory F. Boron, James Pieczknski and Andre Dimitriadis, C.A. No. 20387 for declaratory and injunctive relief against Ribapharm and certain of its directors in the Delaware Court of Chancery. This complaint alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties and certain contracts by implementing a shareholder rights plan in response to the Companys tender offer. The Company requested a preliminary injunction hearing prior to the expiration of the tender offer on July 22, 2003 and sought a temporary restraining order barring the defendants from taking certain actions with respect to Ribapharms newly enacted shareholders rights plan. On June 30, 2003, the Court of Chancery scheduled a preliminary injunction hearing for September 3, 2003.
On June 27, 2003, a purported class action on behalf of certain stockholders of Ribapharm was filed against the Company in the Delaware Court of Chancery. This class action is captioned Maxine Phillips,
13
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Robert Garfield, Nora Mazzini, Andrew Samet, Kathleen A. Pasek, Richard Jacob and Steven Silverberg v. ICN Pharmaceuticals, Inc., C.A. No. 20391, and seeks a declaration that the shareholders rights plan is valid and enforceable. This action has been consolidated with the suit instituted by the Company on June 25, 2003 and captioned In re Ribapharm, Inc. Rights Plan Litigation, Consol. C.A. No. 20387. On August 4, 2003, the Company and the plaintiffs reached an agreement in principle to settle this lawsuit. Such settlement will be completed in combination with the settlement In re Ribapharm Inc. Shareholders Litigation, Consol. C.A. No. 20337.
On June 3, 2003, a purported class action, captioned Len Brody v. Roberts A. Smith, Andre C. Dimitriadis, Santo J. Costa, James J. Pieczynski, Daniel J. Paracka, Gregory F. Boron, Ribapharm, Inc. and ICN Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Case No. 03 CC 00211, was filed in the Superior Court of Orange County, California, against the Company, Ribapharm and certain of Ribapharms officers and directors. The complaint in this action purports to assert the same claims, on behalf of the same class of plaintiffs and against the same defendants as in the seven lawsuits filed in Delaware that are described above. The Company has entered into a stipulation with the plaintiff in this action that extends the Companys time to respond to the complaint until August 21, 2003, to allow the parties time to ascertain how to proceed in California given the multiplicity of identical and related actions pending in Delaware and which Delaware law governs.
Derivative Actions: The Company is a nominal defendant in a shareholder derivative lawsuit pending in state court in Orange County, California. This lawsuit, which was filed on June 6, 2002, purports to assert derivative claims on behalf of the Company against certain current and/or former officers and directors of the Company. The lawsuit asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duties, abuse of control, gross mismanagement and waste of corporate assets. The plaintiff seeks, among other things, damages and a constructive trust over cash bonuses paid to the officer and director defendants in connection with the Ribapharm Offering (the Ribapharm Bonuses). Because it is a derivative lawsuit, the plaintiff does not seek recovery from the Company but rather on behalf of the Company.
On October 1, 2002, several former and current directors of the Company, as individuals, as well as the Company, as a nominal defendant, were named as defendants in a second shareholders derivative complaint filed in Delaware Chancery Court. The complaint purports to state causes of action for violation of Delaware General Corporate Law Section 144, breach of fiduciary duties and waste of corporate assets in connection with the defendants management of the Company. Because it is a derivative lawsuit, the complaint does not seek recovery from the Company but rather on behalf or the Company. The allegations largely duplicate those contained in the derivative lawsuit filed in Orange County, California, but add a disclosure-based claim relating to the allegations of federal securities law violations made in the class actions.
The Company established a Special Litigation Committee to evaluate the plaintiffs claims in both derivative actions. The Special Litigation Committee concluded that it would not be in the best interests of the Companys shareholders to pursue many of the claims in these two lawsuits, but decided to pursue, through litigation or settlement, claims arising from the April 2002 decision of the Board to approve the payment of approximately $50,000,000 in bonuses to various members of the Board and management arising from the initial public offering of Ribapharm. On April 25, 2003, the Company filed a motion to stay or dismiss the California plaintiffs complaint in favor of the Company amending the existing Delaware derivative action to substitute the Company as the plaintiff. The hearing on the Companys motion in the California action is scheduled for August 18, 2003.
Securities Class Actions: Since July 25, 2002, multiple class actions have been filed in the United States District Courts for the Eastern District of New York, the District of New Jersey and the Central District of California against the Company and some of our current and former executive officers. The lawsuits allege that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by issuing false and misleading financial results to the market during different class periods ranging from May 3, 2001 to July 10, 2002, thereby artificially inflating the price of the
14
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Companys stock. The lawsuits generally claim that the Company issued false and misleading statements regarding the Companys earnings prospects and sales figures, its operations in Russia and the earnings and sales of its Photonics division. The plaintiffs generally seek to recover compensatory damages, including interest.
On May 9, 2003, a bondholder filed a class action lawsuit in Orange County Superior Court against the Company and some of its current and former directors and executive officers. The lawsuit alleges that defendants violated Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 by making false and misleading statements in connection with an offering of Convertible Subordinated Notes in November 2001, thereby artificially inflating the market price of the Notes. The plaintiffs generally seek to recover compensatory damages, including interest. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself.
Schering Dispute: In August 2001, Schering-Plough Ltd. (Schering) informed the Company and Ribapharm that it believed royalties paid under its Exclusive License Agreement with Ribapharm (the License Agreement) should not include royalties on products distributed as part of its indigent patient marketing program. Schering claimed that because it received no revenue from products given to indigent patients, it should not have to pay royalties on these products under the License Agreement. As a result, Schering withheld approximately $11,628,000 from its royalty payment relating to the second quarter of 2001. The amount withheld was purportedly intended by Schering to be a retroactive adjustment of royalties previously paid to the Company and Ribapharm through the third quarter of 2000 on products distributed as part of this indigent patient marketing program. Since the fourth quarter of 2000, Schering withheld all royalty payments purportedly related to this indigent patient marketing program. The Company and Ribapharm recognized the $11,628,000 of withheld royalty payments for the retroactive adjustment and $3,050,000 of royalty payments withheld for the fourth quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2001 as revenue. These amounts are included on the Companys consolidated balance sheet as a receivable. The Company and Ribapharm did not establish a reserve for these amounts, because, in the opinion of Ribapharms management, collectibility was reasonably assured. Since the second quarter of 2001, the Company and Ribapharm no longer recognized any of these withheld royalty payments as revenue, as such amounts could no longer be determined due to a lack of information provided by Schering. The Company and Ribapharm commenced arbitration with Schering. On July 31, 2003, the arbitrator ruled orally that the Company was entitled to receive certain past royalties for sales of ribavirin under the indigent patient marketing program prior to 2002, plus interest. The arbitrators ruling is binding. The amount awarded is approximately equal to the receivable the Company and Ribapharm had recorded on their balance sheet for such payments; therefore, it is expected that the ruling will have little impact on the Companys and Ribapharms financial results or condition. In addition, the arbitrator agreed with Scherings method of calculation of royalties on the indigent patient marketing program on a prospective basis.
Generic Litigation: Three generic pharmaceutical companies, Geneva Pharmaceuticals Technology Corporation, which merged into its parent, Geneva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Geneva), Three Rivers Pharmaceuticals, LLC (Three Rivers) and Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (Teva), filed Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDA) with the FDA to market generic forms of ribavirin for use as part of a combination therapy for the treatment of hepatitis C. The Company and Ribapharm sued all three of these pharmaceutical companies to prevent them from marketing a generic form of ribavirin in the United States market. The three cases were all before the same judge, and summary judgment motions were filed by the defendants. In July 2003, the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California issued a memorandum of decision and order granting the defendants their motion for summary judgment of non-infringement of the asserted patents in the patent infringement suit brought by the Company and Ribapharm. The decision and order did not rule on defendants motion for summary judgment that the patents are invalid. This ruling permits the FDA to approve the defendant generic companies ANDAs, in their discretion. The Company and Ribapharm are considering a judicial appeal and on July 17, 2003 filed a Citizens Petition with the FDA
15
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
requesting that the Commissioner of Food and Drugs refrain from approving ANDA for ribavirin products with labelling that omits information about the products use in combination with PEG-Intron® (peginterferon alfa-2b). The successful entry of any generic pharmaceutical company into the U.S. market will have a material negative impact on the Companys and Ribapharms future U.S. royalty revenue.
Ribapharm Patents: Various parties are opposing Ribapharms ribavirin patents in actions before the European Patent Office, and Ribapharm is responding to these oppositions. Regardless of the outcome of these oppositions, the Company believes the combination therapies marketed by Schering and Roche will continue to benefit from a period of data and marketing protection in the major markets of the European Union until 2009 for Schering and 2012 for Roche.
Yugoslavia: In March 1999, arbitration was initiated in the following matters before the International Chamber of Commerce International Court of Arbitration: (a) State Health Fund of Serbia v. ICN Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Case No. 10 373/ AMW/ BDW, and (b) ICN Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and Republic of Serbia, Case No. 10 439/ BWD. At issue in these matters is the parties respective ownership percentages in ICN Yugoslavia, a joint venture formed by the parties purported predecessors-in-interest in 1990.
In these proceedings, the Company has asserted claims and counterclaims against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the Republic of Serbia for unlawful expropriation of its majority interest in the joint venture, failure to pay obligations in excess of $176,000,000, violation of a contractual right of first refusal regarding the minority owners sale of its interest, and failure to return the Companys contributed intangible assets following partial appropriation of the Companys majority interest. The State Health Fund of Serbia has asserted a claim against the Company for breach of the joint venture agreement based on the Companys alleged failure to contribute certain intangible assets and alleged mismanagement.
The arbitration hearings in this matter began in November 2002 and continued in April 2003. The Tribunal has requested supplemental briefing and may order one or more rounds of additional hearings.
Circe: The former shareholders (the Circe Stockholders) of Circe Biomedical, Inc. (Circe) filed in July 2003 a demand for arbitration claiming indemnification from the Company for approximately $10,000,000 of purported financial losses, based on provisions of an agreement entered into at the time the Company acquired Circe. The Circe Stockholders claim to have suffered such losses as a result of the Companys alleged breach of its obligations to register for resale the Company shares issued to the Circe Stockholders as part of the purchase price for the Circe acquisition. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claim.
Russia: The Company is involved in various legal proceedings relating to its distribution company in Russia. These proceedings arise out of a claim relating to non-payment under a contract entered into in January 1995, prior to the Companys acquisition of the Russian distribution company. The claimant, Minnex Trading Corporation (Minnex) in July 2001 initiated bankruptcy proceedings against OAO Pharmsnabsbyt (PSS), the Companys Russian distribution company, in the Arbitration Court of Moscow Region, and seeks to recover $6,200,000 in damages, plus expenses. Certain other ICN affiliates are also creditors of PSS, and have asserted claims in bankruptcy in excess of $12,000,000. Claims have also been made that the Company is responsible for PSSs bankruptcy. Under certain circumstances, Russian law imposes liability on a company whose actions create liabilities or cause bankruptcy for its Russian subsidiary. The Company intends to vigorously assert its interests in this matter.
Other: The Company has also identified potential violations of the U.S. Asset Control Regulations by its subsidiaries with respect to certain business transactions. The Company submitted a voluntary disclosure of the potential violations to the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), as well as a request for settlement. The Company does not expect any such settlement to have a material adverse impact on our financial situation or our ability to operate as planned. The Company is a party to other pending lawsuits or subject to a number
16
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
of threatened lawsuits. While the ultimate outcome of pending and threatened lawsuits or pending violations cannot be predicted with certainty, and an unfavorable outcome could have a negative impact on the Company, at this time in the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
10. Business Segments
The Company has four reportable pharmaceutical segments comprising the Companys pharmaceutical operations in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia, Africa and Australia. In addition, the Company has its majority-owned subsidiary, Ribapharm. The segment reporting has been reclassified to conform to discontinued operations presentation for all periods presented. See Note 2 for discussion of discontinued operations.

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Condition |
The following discussion relates to the information presented in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report. With respect to certain items set forth in such Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, management has sought, in connection with its discussion of the material changes in the Companys financial condition and results of operations between the periods for which information is presented in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, to identify and, in some cases, quantify, the material factors which contributed to such material changes. However, the quantification of such factors may result in the presentation of numerical measures that exclude amounts that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). Management is providing this information because it believes that it is useful to enable readers to assess material changes in the Companys financial condition and results of operations between the periods for which information is presented in the Financial Statements. In each instance, such information is presented immediately following (and in connection with an explanation of) the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and includes other material information necessary to reconcile the information with the comparable GAAP financial measure.
Results of Operations
Certain financial information for the Companys business segments is set forth below. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of the Company included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. For additional financial information by business segment, see Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
The Company has four reportable pharmaceutical segments comprising the Companys pharmaceutical operations in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia, Africa and Australia.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
Quarter Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to 2002
Pharmaceutical Revenues |
In the North America Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $26,063,000 compared to $19,470,000 for the same period of 2002, an increase of $6,593,000 (34%). The increase is primarily due to increased revenues in the second quarter of 2003 from the completion of an inventory reduction program at the Companys wholesalers in April 2003. The Company began the inventory reduction program in June 2002.
In the Latin America Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $33,685,000, compared to $32,547,000 for the same period of 2002, an increase of $1,138,000 (3%). The increase is primarily due to an increase in revenues in Argentina and Brazil of $1,433,000. Revenues in Mexico were negatively affected by a 9% decrease in the value of the peso and slightly lower sales volumes due to generic competition and the reduction of government funding, offset by price increases.
In the Europe Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $59,308,000 compared to $49,524,000 for the same period of 2002, an increase of $9,784,000 (20%). The increase is primarily due to an increase in the value of currencies in the region relative to the U.S. Dollar, which resulted in an increase in revenues of $7,279,000. Additionally, excluding the effect of currencies, revenues in Poland increased $2,314,000 primarily due to price increases.
In the Asia, Africa and Australia (AAA) Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $12,476,000 compared to $13,270,000 for the same period of 2002, a decrease of $794,000 (6%). The decrease is primarily due to lower sales volume throughout the region partially off-set by an increase in sales of Nyal® products in Australia.
Ribapharm Royalty Revenues: Royalty revenues represent amounts earned by the Companys Ribapharm subsidiary under the License and Supply Agreement with Schering (the License Agreement) and for the three months ended June 30, 2003, under a license agreement with F. Hoffman-LaRoche Ltd. (Roche). Under the License Agreement, Schering licensed all oral forms of ribavirin for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C in combination with Scherings alpha interferon (the Combination Therapy).
On January 6, 2003, the Company, Ribapharm and Roche reached agreement on a settlement regarding pending patent disputes over Roches combination anti-viral product containing Roches version of ribavirin, known as Copegus. Under the agreement, Roche may continue to register and commercialize Copegus globally. The financial terms of this settlement agreement include a license by Ribapharm of ribavirin to Roche. The license authorizes Roche to make or have made and to sell Copegus under Ribapharms patents. Roche pays royalty fees to Ribapharm on all sales of Copegus for use in combination with interferon alfa or pegylated interferon alfa.
Royalties earned for the three months ended June 30, 2003 from Schering and Roche were $51,955,000 compared to $66,000,000 for the same period of 2002, a decrease of $14,045,000 (21%). The Company and Ribapharm believe that the decrease in royalties during the three months ended June 30, 2003, include the effects of increasing competition between Schering and Roche, Scherings provision for estimated rebates on its U.S. sales of ribavirin and changes in trade inventory levels as reported to Ribapharm by Schering. The Company and Ribapharm have no information with regard to the basis for the rebate and return provision other than public statements by Schering suggesting generic competition in the last half of 2003 would have an impact on demand.
Gross Profit: Gross profit margin on product sales decreased to 63% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 67% for 2002. The decrease in gross profit is primarily due to a change in the geographic mix in sales, primarily in Europe, which lowered the Companys overall margin, higher
20
Selling Expenses: Selling expenses were $43,390,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $39,062,000 for the same period in 2002, an increase of $4,328,000 (11%). The increase is consistent with the increase in product sales and reflects the Companys increased promotional efforts, especially in Europe.
General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $24,839,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $211,422,000 for the same period in 2002, a decrease of $186,583,000. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 are reported non-recurring and other unusual charges of $179,917,000, which primarily include stock compensation costs related to the Change of Control under the Companys Option Plan ($61,400,000); executive and director bonuses paid in connection with the Ribapharm Offering ($47,839,000); professional fees related to Ribapharm ($13,000,000); incentive compensation costs related to the accelerated vesting of restricted stock upon the Change of Control under the Companys Long-Term Incentive Plan ($12,022,000); costs incurred in the Companys 2002 proxy contest ($6,261,000); the write-down of the corporate airplane ($9,100,000); the write-off of ICN International AG capitalized offering costs ($18,295,000) and severance costs related to the termination of Mr. Panic ($12,000,000).
The remaining decrease of $6,666,000 reflects a reduction in corporate general and administrative expenses of $7,011,000, which is mainly attributable to expenses incurred in the three months ended June 30, 2002 related to severance costs of $3,793,000 and the write-off of deferred acquisition costs of $1,902,000 and lower general and administrative expenses in the pharmaceuticals segment in 2003. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in Ribapharms general and administrative expenses of $2,936,000.
Research and Development: Research and development expenses for the 2003 second quarter were $9,790,000 compared to $12,959,000 for the same period in 2002. The decrease is primarily attributable to the timing of costs associated with the clinical trials of Viramidine and Hepavir B. It is expected that research and development expenses will increase in the third quarter of 2003 as progress continues with the clinical trials of Viramidine and Hepavir B.
Gain on Sale of Subsidiary Stock: In April 2002, the Company sold, through an underwritten public offering, 29,900,000 shares of common stock representing 19.93% of the total outstanding common stock of Ribapharm (the Ribapharm Offering). In connection with the Ribapharm Offering, the Company received net cash proceeds of $276,611,000 and recorded a gain on the sale of Ribapharms stock of $262,949,000, net of offering costs in the three months ended June 30, 2002.
Other Income, Net, Including Translation and Exchange: Other income, net, including translation and exchange was a loss of $5,803,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to a gain of $5,252,000 for the same period in 2002, a change of $11,055,000. In the second quarter of 2003, the Company recorded translation and exchange losses primarily related to the Companys dollar denominated net assets in Latin America of $2,547,000 and in Canada of $2,766,000. The Company is currently taking steps to mitigate the impact of foreign currency translation on the income statement.
Interest Income and Expense: Interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $3,069,000 compared to the same period in 2002. The decrease was the result of the repurchase of $194,611,000 of 8 3/4% Senior Notes in April 2002 and the repurchase of $59,410,000 principal amount of the Companys 6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2008 in July and August 2002. Interest income decreased from $1,665,000 in 2002 to $1,131,000 in 2003 due to lower yields on investments partially offset by an increase in interest-bearing cash.
Income Taxes: The Companys effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was 38% compared to 37% for the same period of 2002. The increase in the effective tax rate results from a shift in the mix of earnings to higher tax rate jurisdictions.
21
Income (loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Taxes: Income (loss) from discontinued operations relates to the Companys Russian Pharmaceuticals segment, Biomedicals segment, Photonics business (in 2002) and raw materials businesses and manufacturing capabilities in Central Europe and was a loss of $2,567,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to a loss of $18,153,000 for the same period in 2002. In June 2003, the Company sold its Russian Pharmaceuticals segment for cash proceeds of $55,000,000 and certain assets of its Biomedicals segment for 727,990 shares of its common stock, which had a fair market value of approximately $12,369,000. The loss in 2003 includes a loss on disposal of discontinued operations of $6,596,000, partially offset by income from discontinued operations of $4,029,000. The loss for 2002 includes a loss from discontinued operations of $10,056,027 primarily related to the Photonics business and the Russian Pharmaceuticals business and a loss on disposal of discontinued operations of $8,097,000 mainly due to Circe.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to 2002
Pharmaceutical Revenues |
In the North America Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $41,434,000 compared to $61,394,000 for the same period of 2002, a decrease of $19,960,000 (33%). The decrease in 2003 sales is primarily due to reduced sales to wholesalers during the first four months of 2003 related to an inventory reduction program at the Companys wholesalers, which the Company began in June 2002 and completed in April 2003.
In the Latin America Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $60,056,000 compared to $62,034,000 for the same period of 2002, a decrease of $1,978,000 (3%). The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in sales in Mexico of $3,3036,000 due to a 12% decrease in the value of the peso and slightly lower sales volumes due to generic competition partially offset by price increases.
In the Europe Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $114,884,000 compared to $94,298,000 for the same period of 2002, an increase of $20,586,000 (22%). The increase is primarily due to an increase in the value of currencies in the region relative to the U.S. Dollar, which resulted in an increase in revenues of $14,614,000. Additionally, excluding the effect of currencies, revenues in Poland increased $4,271,000 and revenues in Spain increased $1,492,000 primarily due to price increases and new product launches.
In the Asia, Africa and Australia Pharmaceuticals segment, revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $25,292,000 compared to $25,090,000 for the same period of 2002, an increase of $202,000. The increase is due to an increase in the value of currencies in the region relative to the U.S. Dollar, which resulted in an increase in revenues of $796,000, partially off-set by lower sales volume throughout the region.
Ribapharm Royalty Revenues: Royalties earned for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $100,538,000 compared to $123,001,000 for the same period of 2002, a decrease of $22,463,000 (18%). The Company and Ribapharm believe that the decrease in royalties during the six months ended June 30, 2003 includes the effects of increasing competition between Schering and Roche, Scherings provision for estimated rebates on its U.S. sales of ribavirin and changes in trade inventory levels as reported to Ribapharm by Schering. The Company and Ribapharm have no information with regard to the basis for the rebate and return provision other than public statements made by Schering suggesting generic competition in the last half of 2003 would have an impact on demand.
Gross Profit: Gross profit margin on product sales decreased to 63% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 70% in 2002 The decrease in gross profit is primarily due a change in the geographic mix in sales, primarily in the U.S. and Europe, which lowered the Companys overall gross profit margin, higher inefficiencies in the Companys manufacturing operations in certain regions and costs related to a manufacturing rationalization project.
Selling Expenses: Selling expenses were $80,668,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $78,980,000 for the same period in 2002, an increase of $1,688,000 (2%). The increase reflects the Companys increased promotional efforts, mainly in Europe of $4,746,000, partially offset by a decrease in selling expenses in North America Pharmaceuticals segment of $2,760,000.
22
General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $55,285,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $238,629,000 for the same period in 2002, a decrease of $183,344,000. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002, are non-recurring and other unusual charges of $181,038,000, which primarily include stock compensation costs related to the Companys Change of Control under the Companys Option Plan ($61,400,000); executive and director bonuses paid in connection with the Ribapharm Offering ($47,839,000); professional fees related to Ribapharm ($13,000,000); incentive compensation costs related to the accelerated vesting of restricted stock upon the Change of Control under the Companys Long-Term Incentive Plan ($12,022,000); costs incurred in the Companys 2002 proxy contest ($7,382,000); the write-down of the corporate airplane ($9,100,000); the write-off of ICN International AG capitalized offering costs ($18,295,000); and severance costs related to the termination of Mr. Panic ($12,000,000).
The remaining decrease of $2,306,000 reflects a reduction in corporate general and administrative expenses of $10,125,000, which is mainly attributable to expenses incurred in the six months ended 2002 related to severance costs of $4,232,000, a compensation charge of $2,968,000 for the exercise of stock options and the write-off of deferred acquisition costs of $2,468,000. These expenses were partially offset by an increase in Ribapharms general and administrative expenses of $6,459,000.
Research and Development: Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $18,949,000, compared to $22,047,000 for the same period in 2002. The $3,098,000 decrease is primarily attributable to the timing of costs associated with the clinical trials of Viramidine and Hepavir B.
Other Income, Net, Including Translation and Exchange: Other income, net, including translation and exchange was a loss of $1,712,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to a gain of $3,939,000 for the same period in 2002. In 2003, translation gains principally consisted of transaction and exchange losses related to the Companys dollar denominated net assets in Canada of $5,039,000, partially offset by translation and exchange gains in Europe and AAA of $2,574,000.
Interest Income and Expense: Interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $9,171,000 compared to the same period in 2002 due to repurchases of debt in 2002. Interest income decreased $863,000 due to lower yields on investments partially offset by an increase in interest-bearing cash.
Income Taxes: The Companys effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was 38% compared to 37% for 2002. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily the result of a shift in the mix of earnings to higher tax rate jurisdictions.
Income (loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Taxes: Income (loss) from discontinued operations was a loss of $2,118,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to a loss of $19,109,000 for the same period in 2002.

If sufficient shares are tendered and all other conditions met, the Tender Offer would require the Company to pay approximately $186,875,000 plus expenses in cash, to reacquire the publicly traded shares of Ribapharm. The Company anticipates using cash on hand to fund the Tender Offer.
Management believes that the Companys existing cash and cash equivalents and funds generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its operating requirements at least through June 30, 2004 and to fund the Tender Offer, anticipated acquisitions and capital expenditures and the Companys research and development program. The Company may also seek additional debt financing or issue additional equity securities to finance future acquisitions. The Company funds its cash requirements primarily from cash provided by its operating activities. The Companys sources of liquidity are its cash and cash equivalent balances and its cash flow from operations.
In February and March 2003, Schering entered into license agreements with three generic pharmaceutical companies, which granted to each company a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable license to Scherings U.S. ribavirin patents. In connection with the Companys and Ribapharms patent infringement suit against the same three pharmaceutical companies to prevent them from marketing a generic form of ribavirin in the U.S., the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California issued a memorandum of decision and order granting the generic pharmaceutical companies motion for summary judgment of non-infringement of the Companys and Ribapharms asserted patents. The decision and order did not rule on defendants motion for summary judgment that the patents are invalid. The Company and Ribapharm filed a joint Citizen Petition with the FDA on July 17, 2003 and the Company and Ribapharm are considering other options, including appealing the summary judgment decision. Competition from generic pharmaceutical companies could have a material negative impact on the Companys future royalty revenue. With respect to Schering, royalties received by Ribapharm will be affected by the likelihood of reduced sales by Schering as well as a reduction in the royalty rate per the license agreement. With respect to Roche, under the license agreement, introduction of generics in any market will eliminate the obligation of Roche to pay royalties for sales in that market. See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements regarding Commitments and Contingencies Generic Litigation.

While the Company has historically paid quarterly cash dividends, there can be no assurance that the Company will continue to do so.
As of June 30, 2003, Ribapharm has a payable to the Company of $402,000. As of June 30, 2003, $100,396,000 of cash and cash equivalents was retained by Ribapharm. These funds may not be readily available to the Company unless Ribapharm declares a dividend or loans funds to the Company, or the Tender Offer is completed. The Company provides Ribapharm a line of credit facility, which allows Ribapharm to borrow up to $35,000,000 until December 30, 2005 or the date the Company ceases to be the beneficial owner of at least 80% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Ribapharm (the Expiration Date). All amounts outstanding under the line of credit are due on the Expiration Date. There are no amounts outstanding under this line of credit as of June 30, 2003.
Upon the initial public offering of Ribapharm, Ribapharm began receiving all royalties under the License Agreement with Schering, which reduces cash available to the Company and its other operations. The Company and Ribapharm are jointly and severally liable for the principal and interest obligations under the $525,000,000 Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2008 issued in July 2001. Under terms contained in an inter-debtor agreement between the Company and Ribapharm, the Company has agreed to make all interest and principal payments on the convertible notes.
The Company evaluates the carrying value of its inventories at least quarterly, taking into account such factors as historical and anticipated future sales compared with quantities on hand, the price the Company expects to obtain for its products in their respective markets compared with historical cost, and the remaining shelf life of goods on hand. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required. The Company also evaluates the collectibility of its receivables at least quarterly. The Companys methodology for establishing the allowance for bad debts varies with the regions in which it operates. The allowance for bad debts is based upon specific identification of customer accounts and the Companys best estimate of the likelihood of potential loss, taking into account such factors as the financial condition and payment history of major customers. As of June 30, 2003, the Company believes that adequate provision has been made for inventory obsolescence and for anticipated losses on uncollectible accounts receivable.
The Company is currently self-insured with respect to product liability claims. While to date no material adverse claim for personal injury resulting from allegedly defective products has been successfully maintained against the Company, a substantial claim, if successful, could have a negative impact on the Companys liquidity and financial performance.
Restructuring
During 2002, the Company conducted a strategic review of its operations. As a result of that review, the Company now intends to emphasize its specialty pharmaceuticals business, to divest itself of those businesses that do not fit the Companys strategic growth plans and to exert efforts to bring its overall cost structure in line with industry averages.
As a result of this strategic review, the Company made the decision to divest its Russian Pharmaceuticals segment, Biomedicals segment, Photonics business, raw materials business and manufacturing capability in Central Europe and Circe unit. The results of these operations and the related financial position have been reflected as discontinued operations in the Companys consolidated condensed financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The consolidated condensed financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the discontinued operations presentation for all historical periods presented.
In June 2003, the Company sold its Russian Pharmaceuticals segment and certain assets of its Biomedicals segment. The Company received gross proceeds of $55,000,000 in cash for the Russian Pharmaceuticals segment and 727,990 shares of its common stock, which had a fair market value of approximately $12,369,000 for the assets of its Biomedicals segment. The Company recorded a net loss on
25
The Company is actively marketing for sale the remaining Biomedicals business segment, Dosimetry, and the raw materials businesses and manufacturing capability in Hungary and the Czech Republic. The Company expects all of the remaining discontinued operations will be sold by the end of 2003.
The Companys management recently announced its intention to restructure the Companys global manufacturing capabilities beginning in the second half of 2003. This restructuring may result in the Company recording non-cash impairment charges related to certain manufacturing assets. As the Company has not finalized its restructuring plans, the amount, if any, of impairment charges cannot be estimated at this time.
Foreign Operations
Approximately 62% and 53% of the Companys revenues from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, were generated from operations outside the United States. All of the Companys foreign operations are subject to risks inherent in conducting business abroad, including possible nationalization or expropriation, price and currency exchange controls, fluctuations in the relative values of currencies, political instability and restrictive governmental actions. Changes in the relative values of currencies occur from time to time and may, in some instances, materially affect the Companys results of operations. The effect of these risks remains difficult to predict.
Inflation and Changing Prices
The effects of inflation are experienced by the Company through increases in the costs of labor, services and raw materials. The Company is subject to price control restrictions on its pharmaceutical products in the majority of countries in which it operates. While the Company attempts to raise selling prices in anticipation of inflation, the Company operates in some markets which have price controls that may limit its ability to raise prices in a timely fashion. Future sales and gross profit will be reduced if the Company is unable to obtain price increases commensurate with the levels of inflation.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
The Companys business and financial results are affected by fluctuations in world financial markets. The Company evaluates its exposure to such risks on an ongoing basis, and reviews its risk management policy to manage these risks to an acceptable level, based on managements judgment of the appropriate trade-off between risk, opportunity and costs. The Company does not hold any significant amount of market risk sensitive instruments whose value is subject to market price risk. The Company seeks to manage its foreign currency exposure by maintaining the majority of cash balances at foreign subsidiaries in the U.S. dollar and through operational means by managing local currency revenues in relation to local currency costs. The Company is currently taking steps to mitigate the impact of foreign currency on the income statement, which will include hedging its foreign currency exposure.
In the normal course of business, the Company also faces risks that are either non-financial or non-quantifiable. Such risks principally include country risk, credit risk, and legal risk and are not discussed or quantified in the following analysis.
Interest Rate Risk: The Company currently does not hold financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The financial assets of the Company are not subject to significant interest rate risk due to their short duration. At June 30, 2003, the Company had $12,673,000 of foreign denominated debt that would subject it to both interest and currency risk. The principal financial liabilities of the Company that are subject to interest rate risk are its fixed-rate long-term debt (principally its 6 1/2% Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2008) totaling approximately $465,590,000. The Company does not use any derivatives or similar instruments to manage its interest rate risk. A 100 basis-point increase in interest rates (approximately 15% of the Companys weighted average interest rate on fixed-rate debt) affecting the Companys financial instruments would have an immaterial effect on the Companys six month and second quarter 2003 pretax earnings. However, such a change would reduce the fair value of the Companys fixed-rate debt instruments by approximately $18,200,000 as of June 30, 2003.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Commencing with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2002, and continuing quarterly since then, the Company has instituted a program of questionnaires sent to, certifications provided by, and telephonic interviews conducted with individual officers or employees responsible for oversight and management of parts of the Companys different business operations. The questionnaires, certifications and interviews are intended to reinforce the Companys existing system of internal controls, and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms. Such controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under that Act is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
There have been no significant changes in the Companys internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the evaluation referred to in the preceding paragraph, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
