NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 Interim Financial Reporting and Change in Fiscal Year

During December 2002, we changed our fiscal year-end from the 52-53 week period which ends on the Saturday closest to June 30 to the 52-53 week period which ends on the Saturday closest to December 31.

The consolidated balance sheet as of December 28, 2002 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of that date and is presented for comparative purposes. Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the six months ended December 28, 2002 as filed in the Company’s Form 10-K. Accordingly, footnotes that would substantially duplicate such disclosure have been omitted.

The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.

The results of operations for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending January 3, 2004 or any other period.

Stock Based Compensation

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation–Transition and Disclosure”. This statement amends FAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, FAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of FAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.

Pursuant to FAS No. 148, we have elected to continue to account for employee stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock-Issued to Employees”, using an intrinsic value approach to measure compensation expense. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for options granted under our stock compensation plans since all such options were granted at exercise prices equal to or greater than fair market value on the date of grant.

The weighted average assumptions used for the period presented are as follows:

Had compensation cost for the Company’s option plans been determined using the fair value method at the grant dates, the effect on the Company’s net income (loss) and income (loss) per share would have been as follows:

New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46”). FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company, if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. FIN 46 also requires disclosures about variable interest entities that a company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to existing entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply to all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The initial adoption of this accounting pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends SFAS No. 133 for decisions made as part of the FASB's Derivatives Implementation Group process, other FASB projects dealing with financial instruments, and in connection with implementation issues raised in relation to the application of the definition of a derivative. This statement is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The Company does not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 clarifies the definition of a liability as currently defined in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, "Elements of Financial Statements," as well as other planned revisions. This statement requires a financial instrument that embodies an obligation of an issuer to be classified as a liability. In addition, the statement establishes standards for the initial and subsequent measurement of these financial instruments and disclosure requirements. Certain portions of SFAS No. 150 are effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. The Company does not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 Acquisition of Konsyl Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

On May 15, 2003 the Company completed its acquisition of the stock of Konsyl Pharmaceuticals, Inc. of Fort Worth, Texas (“Konsyl”) for an aggregate purchase price of $9,131,000. The consideration for the acquisition consisted of $6,411,000 of cash and a $2,500,000 seller note. In addition, as part of the purchase price, the Company issued warrants to purchase 1.2 million shares of common stock of PFI at an exercise price of $.204 per share, valued at $220,000. The warrants are exercisable until April 15, 2010.

The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase; accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded at their fair values with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. The Company has utilized preliminary estimates and assumptions in determining the allocation of purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Konsyl. While management believes such estimates and assumptions are reasonable, the final allocation of the purchase price may differ from that reflected in the September 27, 2003 consolidated balance sheet after a more extensive review of fair values of assets acquired

The amount and components of the estimated purchase price along with the allocation to assets purchased are as follows:

             Cash                                                  $   143,000

             Prepaid expenses                                          474,000
             Property, plant and equipment, net                        979,000
             Other assets                                              116,000
             Goodwill                                                4,340,000

                                                                   $ 9,131,000
                                                                   -----------
The transaction was financed by a combination of asset-based and term loan financing aggregating $3,700,000 from PFI’s existing lender, CIT Business Credit, as well as a loan of $1,627,000 from, and $595,000 of equipment financing facilitated by, ICC Industries Inc., the holder of approximately 74.5 million shares (approximately 87%) of the common stock of PFI, a five year note to the former stockholder of Konsyl in the amount of $2,500,000 and Konsyl’s own cash of $350,000, a cash payment of $142,000.

Konsyl is a manufacturer and distributor of powdered dietary natural fiber supplements. The products are manufactured at its plant in Easton, Maryland and are sold, both domestically and internationally, to pharmaceutical wholesalers, drugstore chains, mass merchandisers, grocery store chains, and grocery distributors. Products are sold under both the “Konsyl®” brand name and various private labels.

Equipment and other physical property of Konsyl which were acquired are used for the manufacture, marketing and distribution of powdered dietary natural supplements; the Company plans to continue to use these assets for the same purpose.

In connection with PFI’s acquisition of Konsyl, PFI, Konsyl and Mr. Frank X. Buhler, the former majority stockholder of Konsyl, entered into a consultancy agreement for one year at $5,000 per month. In addition, Mr. Buhler was elected to the Board of Directors of PFI at the annual meeting of the stockholders of PFI. Konsyl also entered into a five-year lease with ANDA Investments Ltd., a company owned by Mr. Buhler, regarding the company’s manufacturing facility in Maryland. Annual rent is $200,000, payable quarterly. In addition, Konsyl has an option to purchase the facility for $2,250,000. This option expires on May 14, 2006.

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the financial information as if the acquisition of Konsyl had occurred on January 1, 2003 for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 information and as if the acquisition of Konsyl had occurred on January 1, 2002 for the nine months ended September 28, 2002 information. These pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes and do not purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition been made on January 1, 2002 or January 1, 2003, nor is it indicative of future results.

In March 2002, action was brought against PFI in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking $20 million in damages and $40 million in punitive damages related to the sales of allegedly defective product. Management believes the lawsuit is without merit and is vigorously defending against it.

In May 1998, PFI brought an action against one of its former outside corporate counsels seeking damages for conflict of interest, breaches of fiduciary duty and loyalty, negligence and malpractice during its representation of the Company. The action is still pending.

In July 2000, an action was instituted in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois against the Company by Apotex Corporation and Torpharm, Inc. seeking an unspecified amount in damages and specific performance in the nature of purchasing a certain product from Apotex. The complaint alleges that the Company would purchase a certain product exclusively from Apotex. The counts specified in the complaint include breach of contract, negligent misrepresentation, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, breach of implied covenant to use best efforts, specific performance, breach of fiduciary duty, reformation and a Uniform Commercial Code action for the price of 3 million tablets. Management believes the lawsuit is without merit and is vigorously defending against it.

PFI is a party to various other legal proceedings arising in the normal conduct of business. Management believes that the final outcome of all current legal matters will not have a material adverse effect upon our financial position or results of operations.

As of September 27, 2003, the Company was in violation of certain earnings covenants. As of November 10, 2003, the Company has applied for and CIT has verbally agreed to a waiver of these violations. A written waiver is expected to be received shortly. There can be no assurance that such violations will not occur in the future or that CIT will agree to waivers at any such time.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On May 15, 2003 Pharmaceutical Formulations, Inc. completed its acquisition of the stock of Konsyl Pharmaceuticals, Inc. of Fort Worth, Texas. The results of operations for Konsyl are included in the consolidated results of operations from May 16, 2003.

Gross sales for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 were $53,664,000 as compared to $43,039,000 in the comparable period in the prior year, an increase of $10,625,000 or 24.7%. Gross sales for the current quarter were $19,017,000 as compared to $16,142,000 in the comparable period in the prior year, an increase of $2,875,000 or 17.8%. Konsyl’s gross sales in the current three and nine month periods were $2,677,000 and $4,016,000, respectively. The balance of the sales increase came from established private label customers.

Net sales for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 were $52,406,000 as compared to $42,276,000 in the comparable period in the prior fiscal year, an increase of $10,130,000 or 24.0% due to higher gross sales. Net sales for the three months ended September 27, 2003 were $18,613,000 as compared to $15,944,000 in the comparable period in the prior fiscal year, an increase of $2,669,000 or 16.7% also due to higher gross sales. Sales discounts and allowances in the three months and nine months ended September 27, 2003 increased over the respective prior year periods due to volume related rebate programs.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 82.7% for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 84.8% in the prior year period. This decrease of 2.1% resulted from the inclusion of Konsyl. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 79.7% for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to 81.9% in the prior year period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8,752,000 for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to $7,032,000 in the prior year period, an increase of $1,720,000 or 24.5%, of which $1,249,000 was related to the inclusion of Konsyl and related transition costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3,463,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to $2,217,000 in the prior year period, an increase of $1,246,000 or 56.2%, of which $801,000 was related to the inclusion of Konsyl. The remaining increase reflects higher insurance, legal, freight and commission expenses.

Interest expense was $2,551,000 for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to $3,032,000 for the prior year period. Interest expense was $844,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to $947,000 for the prior year period. The decrease is primarily a result of lower interest rates, offset by interest on increased borrowings to fund the Konsyl acquisition. Interest expense arising from the Konsyl acquisition was approximately $185,000 for the period May 16, 2003 to September 27, 2003.

In December 2001, ICC became an 85.6% owner of our common stock. As a result of the increase in ICC’s ownership of PFI, we file a consolidated tax return with ICC. In accordance with a tax sharing agreement between the two companies, we will be reimbursed for the tax savings generated from ICC’s use of our losses. In addition, the agreement provides for an allocation of the group’s tax liability, based upon the ratio that each member’s contribution of taxable income bears to the consolidated taxable income of the group. In connection with this tax sharing agreement, we recorded a tax benefit of $901,000 for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 and a benefit of $1,539,000 for the nine months ended September 28, 2002. The tax benefit was $271,000 for the three months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to $302,000 for the comparable prior year period.

PFI reported a net loss of $1,295,000 or $.02 per share for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 as compared to a net loss of $1,881,000 or $.02 per share in the prior year period. For the three months ended September 27, 2003, PFI reported a net loss of $380,000 or $.00 per share as compared with a net income of $61,000 or $.00 per share in the prior year period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash increased $69,000 during the nine months ended September 27, 2003.

Total funds provided by operating activities were $3,293,000 for the nine months ended September 27, 2003. This was primarily attributable to non-cash charges of $2,257,000 for depreciation and amortization, an increase in amounts due ICC Industries Inc. of $2,581,000, a decrease in inventories of $1,379,000, offset by a pretax loss of $2,196,000, an increase in prepaid and other current assets of $450,000 and an increase in accounts receivable of $223,000.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 was $10,220,000, principally attributable to the acquisition of Konyl for $8.8 million (net of $143,000 of cash acquired) and $1,317,000 of expenditures for capital equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 was $6,996,000, from new borrowings of long term debt of $6,200,000 related to the Konsyl acquisition, advances from ICC of $1,832,000 (including $1,627,000 related to the Konsyl acquisition), and new capital equipment leases of $1,216,000 (including $595,000 related to Konsyl), offset by repayments of capital lease obligations of $1,873,000 and repayments of long-term debt of $385,000. In June 2003, holders of $1,509,000 in principal amount of our 8% and 8.25% convertible subordinated debentures agreed to extend the payment terms on those bonds, which were due to mature on June 16, 2003, to June 15, 2004, at the current interest rate of 8% or 8.25%, depending on which bonds are held. In exchange for the bondholders’ signed agreement to extend the maturity date on the bonds, they received a one-time up-front fee of $10 per $1,000 of bond principal held by them. In addition, the bondholders retained the right to convert the bonds into our common stock at $.34 per share. The outstanding remaining balances are $1,179,000 on the 8% debentures and $330,000 on the 8.25% debentures. The remaining principal balance of $541,000, due to debenture holders who did not accept the extension offer, was repaid in cash, principally from an advance of $400,000 made to PFI by ICC.

Current assets at September 27, 2003 include $11,231,000 of accounts receivable, of which $1,482,000 represents accounts receivable related to Konsyl sales as compared to $9,334,000 at December 28, 2002. The remaining accounts receivable increase of $415,000 is a result of higher gross sales in September 2003. Working capital also includes $13,881,000 of inventory, of which $1,674,000 represents Konsyl inventory, as compared to $13,131,000 at December 28, 2002. The inventory decrease (other than Konsyl) of $924,000 reflects seasonal factors. Current liabilities include $10,022,000 due ICC at September 27, 2003, compared to $8,812,000 at December 28, 2002. The increase primarily relates to advances to fund the Konsyl acquisition, offset by a credit for the tax benefit of $901,000. Current liabilities also include $10,143,000 of accounts payable and accrued expenses (of which Konsyl is $874,000) as compared to $9,477,000 at December 28, 2002. There were no significant backorders of purchases at September 27, 2003.

We intend to spend up to an estimated $1,800,000 for capital improvements during the fiscal year ending January 3, 2004, of which we have spent $1,317,000 through September 27, 2003, to increase manufacturing capacity and reduce manufacturing costs. We anticipate that these capital expenditures will be funded through equipment lease financing and working capital. While we have in the past had no difficulty in obtaining such financing, there can be no assurance that we will obtain the financing in the future.

We believe that cash flow from operations, our revolving credit facility and equipment and term loan financing, plus continued financial support from ICC, will be sufficient to fund our currently anticipated working capital, capital spending and debt service through December 2004. On May 15, 2003, we reached an agreement with The CIT Group/Business Credit, Inc., to extend our existing revolving credit facilities to December 31, 2006 and the credit line with CIT was increased from $15 million to $20 million, including a term loan of $2 million to be repaid over forty months with interest at prime plus 0.75%. As of September 27, 2003, the Company was in violation of certain earnings covenants. As of November 10, 2003, the Company has applied for and CIT has verbally agreed to a waiver of these violations. A written waiver is expected to be received shortly. There can be no assurance that such violations will occur in the future or that CIT will agree to waivers at any such time. While no assurance can be given that cash flow will be sufficient to fund operations, ICC has committed to provide us with the necessary financing to continue our operations through December 31, 2004. ICC has supported us in the past by providing loans, replacing loans from our asset-based lenders and providing us with working capital.


ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

PFI would be adversely affected by an increase in interest rates. Each 1% change in the prime rate will change the Company’s annual expenditure by approximately $450,000, based on current levels of borrowing and related base interest rates.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of senior management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief FinancialOfficer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.
