PHIBRO ANIMAL HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(IN THOUSANDS)
1. GENERAL
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
In the opinion of Phibro Animal Health Corporation (the "Company" or
"PAHC"), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly its financial position as of March 31, 2005 and its
results of operations and cash flows for the three months and nine months ended
March 31, 2005 and 2004.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2004 was derived
from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required
by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Additionally
it should be noted the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards
appropriate for interim financial statements. While the Company believes the
disclosures presented are adequate to make the information contained herein not
misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited consolidated financial statements as found in the Company's
annual report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2004.
The Company's Mineral Resource Technologies, Inc. ("MRT"), La Cornubia S.A.
(France) ("La Cornubia") and Wychem Limited (U.K.) ("Wychem") businesses have
been classified as discontinued operations as discussed in these notes to
condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company's condensed
consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to report separately
the financial position, operating results and cash flows of the discontinued
operations. These footnotes present information only for continuing operations,
unless otherwise noted.
The results of operations for all interim periods presented may not be
indicative of results for the full year.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
The Company will adopt the following new accounting pronouncements during
2005:
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, "Inventory Costs, an
amendment to Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4" ("SFAS No. 151").
SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, "Inventory Pricing"
to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense,
freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 of ARB No.
43, Chapter 4, previously stated "...under some circumstances, items such as
idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs
may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges....". SFAS
No. 151 requires that those items be recognized as current period charges
regardless of whether they meet the criterion of "so abnormal". In addition,
SFAS No. 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs
of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS
No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning
after June 30, 2005 and the provisions of this statement shall be applied
prospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this statement.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153, "Exchanges of
Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29" ("SFAS No. 153"). SFAS
No. 153 amends APB Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary
exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception
for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A
nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the
entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS
No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods
beginning after June 15, 2005. The provisions of this statement shall be applied
prospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this statement.

PHIBRO ANIMAL HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(IN THOUSANDS)
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Share-Based Payment
(revised 2004)" ("SFAS No. 123"). This Statement is a revision of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" and supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and its related implementation
guidance. This Statement establishes standards for the accounting for
transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or
services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities
in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the
entity's equity instruments or may be settled by the issuance of those equity
instruments. This Statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in
which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions.
This Statement does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment
transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS No. 123 as
originally issued, and it does not address the accounting for employee share
ownership plans. This Statement applies to all awards granted after the
effective date and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after that
date. The cumulative effect of initially applying this Statement, if any, is
recognized as of the required effective date. SFAS No. 123, as revised, is
effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins
after December 31, 2005. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this
statement.
FASB Interpretation No. 47, "Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement
Obligations" ("FIN No. 47"). FIN No. 47 clarifies that the term "conditional
asset retirement obligation" as used in FASB Statement No. 143, "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations ("ARO")" refers to a legal obligation to perform an
asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are
conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the
entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional
even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement.
Thus, the timing and/or method of settlement may be conditional on a future
event. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair
value of a conditional ARO if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably
estimated. The fair value of a liability for the conditional ARO should be
recognized when incurred; generally upon acquisition, construction, or
development and/or through the normal operation of the asset. Uncertainty about
the timing and/or method of settlement of a conditional ARO should be factored
into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. FIN
No. 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to
reasonably estimate the fair value of an ARO. FIN No. 47 is effective no later
than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The Company
anticipates that the adoption of FIN No. 47 will not result in a material impact
on the Company's financial statements.
2. RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES, AND LIQUIDITY
The Company's ability to fund its operating plan depends upon the continued
availability of borrowing under its domestic senior credit facility. The Company
believes that it will be able to comply with the terms of its covenants under
the domestic senior credit facility based on its forecasted operating plan. In
the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under this
facility, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain
waivers or amendments on favorable terms, if at all. The Company expects
adequate liquidity throughout 2005, with periods of reduced availability around
the dates of the semi-annual interest payments due June 1 and December 1 related
to its Senior Secured Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company is
pursuing additional cost reduction activities, working capital improvement
plans, and sales of non-strategic assets to ensure additional liquidity. The
Company also has availability under foreign credit lines that likely would be
available. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in any of
the above-noted actions.
The use of antibiotics in medicated feed additives is a subject of
legislative and regulatory interest. The issue of potential for increased
bacterial resistance to certain antibiotics used in certain food-producing
animals is the subject of discussions on a worldwide basis and, in certain
instances, has led to government restrictions on the use of antibiotics in
food-producing animals. The sale of feed additives containing antibiotics is a
material portion of the Company's business. Should regulatory or other
developments result in further restrictions on the sale of such products, it
could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position,
results of operations and cash flows.
The testing, manufacturing, and marketing of certain of the Company's
products are subject to extensive regulation by numerous government authorities
in the United States and other countries.

(IN THOUSANDS)
The Company has significant assets located outside of the United States,
and a significant portion of the Company's sales and earnings are attributable
to operations conducted abroad.
The Company has assets located in Israel and a portion of its sales and
earnings are attributable to operations conducted in Israel. The Company is
affected by social, political and economic conditions affecting Israel, and any
major hostilities involving Israel as well as the Middle East or curtailment of
trade between Israel and its current trading partners, either as a result of
hostilities or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company's operations, properties and subsidiaries are subject to a wide
variety of complex and stringent federal, state, local and foreign environmental
laws and regulations, including those governing the use, storage, handling,
generation, treatment, emission, release, discharge and disposal of certain
materials and wastes, the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater, the
manufacture, sale and use of pesticides and the health and safety of employees.
As such, the nature of the Company's current and former operations and those of
its subsidiaries exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims
with respect to such matters.
3. REFINANCING
ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL 13% SENIOR SECURED NOTES:
On December 21, 2004, the Company completed a private placement pursuant to
which the Company (the "Parent Issuer") and Philipp Brothers Netherlands III
B.V., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Dutch Issuer" and
together with the Company, the "Issuers") issued and sold 22,491 additional
units consisting of $18,207 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 of the Parent
Issuer (the "U.S. Notes") and $4,284 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 of the
Dutch Issuer (the "Dutch Notes" and together with the U.S. Notes, the
"Additional Notes"), from which they received gross proceeds of $23,391. The
proceeds were used to refinance indebtedness outstanding under the Company's
domestic senior credit facility. The Company incurred financing costs of $2,275
in connection with the issuance of the Additional Notes. The Additional Notes
were issued under the Indenture dated October 21, 2003, as amended and
supplemented (the "Indenture") under which the Issuers previously issued 105,000
units consisting of $85,000 aggregate principal amount of U.S. Notes and $20,000
aggregate principal amount of Dutch Notes.
On March 9, 2005, the Company completed the exchange of its privately
placed 127,491 units of 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 with new units of 13%
Senior Secured Notes due 2007 that have been registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
AMENDMENT TO THE DOMESTIC SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY:
On December 21, 2004, concurrent with the completion of the offering of the
Additional Notes, the Company amended its domestic senior credit facility to:
(i) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude charges and expenses related to the
sale of the Belgium Plant in an aggregate amount not to exceed $26,800 for
purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (ii) amend the indenture
reserve definition to include scheduled payments of interest due on the
Additional Notes; (iii) amend the maximum aggregate amount of borrowing
available under the working capital facility to permit a temporary increase to
$22,500 and for its reduction to $17,500 on such borrowings being refinanced by
the proceeds of the Additional Notes; (iv) amend the Permitted Investments
definition to include investments in connection with the sale of the Belgium
Plant and transfer of certain equipment, together with other assets and rights
related to the production of virginiamycin, to Phibro Saude International Ltda.
("PAH Brazil") or in connection with alternative production arrangements; and
(v) provide for the issuance of the Additional Notes and the sale of the Belgium
Plant and related transactions.

On December 16, 2004, Phibro Animal Health SA, ("PAH Belgium") entered into
an agreement with GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals ("GSK") to sell to GSK

EUR 1,500 ($1,942) within thirty months from the closing date, and EUR 500
($647) within forty-two months from the closing date; (v) PAH Belgium retaining
certain excess land (valued at approximately EUR 400 ($518)) and being able to
sell such land for its own account; (vi) PAH Belgium being responsible for
certain plant closure costs and legally required severance indemnities in
connection with workforce reductions, estimated in total to be EUR 10,200
($13,203), of which an amount estimated to be approximately EUR 4,200 ($5,436)
would be payable at or around the closing and an aggregate amount so estimated
to be approximately EUR 6,000 ($7,766) would be payable over periods up to
thirteen years; and (vii) PAH Belgium retaining any or all equipment at the
Belgium Plant, and being able to sell such equipment for the account of PAH
Belgium or transfer such equipment, together with other assets and rights
related to the production of virginiamycin, to PAH Brazil which owns a facility
in Guarulhos, Brazil or in connection with alternative production arrangements.
The foregoing transactions and agreements are subject to a closing that is
expected to occur on November 30, 2005, but in no event earlier than July 1,
2005 or later than June 30, 2006.
The Dutch Notes and related guarantees are collateralized by a mortgage on
the Belgium Plant which will be released in connection with the closing of the
sale of the Belgium Plant to GSK.
As a result of the above agreement, the Company will depreciate the Belgium
plant to its estimated salvage value of EUR 2,470 ($3,197) as of the projected
closing date of November 30, 2005. The Company recorded incremental depreciation
expense of EUR 2,755 ($3,628) during the three months ended March 31, 2005 and
will record an additional EUR 6,301 ($8,156) of incremental depreciation expense
ratably through November 2005. The Company recorded severance expense of EUR
6,650 ($9,003) in December 2004 for the estimated minimum severance amounts
indicated by law, contract, and/or past practice. The Company recorded
additional expense of EUR 976 ($1,277) during the three months ended March 31,
2005 and estimates it will record additional expense of EUR 2,574 ($3,332)
ratably through November 2005 for severance, retention agreements and other
costs. The incremental depreciation expense of $3,628 and severance expense of
$10,280 recorded through March 2005 are included in cost of goods sold on the
Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
income (loss).
The Company has determined that the carrying amount of the Belgium Plant at
March 31, 2005 is recoverable based on the estimated future cash flows arising
from the use of the assets.
In anticipation of transferring production of virginiamycin from the
Belgium plant to an alternative production location, the Company has been
increasing inventory levels of virginiamycin to ensure adequate supplies during
the transfer period. At March 31, 2005 virginiamycin inventories were
approximately $43,000 and are expected to continue to increase through November
2005, based on current production rates.

5. HOLDING COMPANY AND HOLDCO NOTES
During February 2005, PAHC Holdings Corporation ("Holdings") was formed to
hold the capital stock of the Company, except for its Series C Preferred Stock.
On February 10, 2005, Holdings issued $29,000 aggregate principal amount of its
15% Senior Secured Notes due 2010 (the "HoldCo Notes") in a private placement.
Interest is payable at the option of Holdings in cash or pay-in-kind HoldCo
Notes in its sole discretion. The Company is not obligated for the HoldCo Notes.
The Company's ability to make payments to Holdings is subject to the terms of
the Company's Senior Secured Notes, its Senior Subordinated Notes, and its
domestic senior credit facility, and to applicable law.
The proceeds from the sale of the HoldCo Notes were used by Holdings to
make a capital contribution to the Company to contemporaneously finance the
redemption of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock in the amount of $26,400 on
February 28, 2005.
On May 16, 2005, Holdings completed the exchange of its privately placed
HoldCo Notes with new HoldCo Notes that have been registered with the SEC.
Holdings was formed by the holders of all of the Company's capital stock,
other than the holders of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock. In particular,
Jack Bendheim, Marvin Sussman and trusts for the benefit of Mr. Bendheim and his
family exchanged all of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Class B
Common Stock and Mr. Bendheim exchanged all of his shares of Class A Common
Stock, for the same number and class of shares of Holdings, having the same
designations, relative rights, privileges and limitations as the Company's
shares of such class (except to the extent that Holdings is a Delaware
corporation and the Company is a New York corporation). Holdings owns all the
outstanding capital stock of all classes of the Company, and Mr. Bendheim, Mr.
Sussman and trusts for the benefit of Mr. Bendheim's family own the same number
and class of shares of Holdings as they previously owned of the Company, and
having the same designations, relative rights, privileges and limitations as the
Company's shares of such class.
The HoldCo Notes are collateralized by all of Holdings' assets (now
consisting substantially of all the outstanding capital stock of the Company).
The HoldCo Notes and such security interest are effectively subordinated to all
liabilities, including the Company's and its subsidiaries' trade payables, as
well as the Company's indenture indebtedness.
6. REDEMPTION OF SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK
In connection with the redemption of the Company's Series C Preferred
Stock, the Company, Palladium Equity Partners II, LP ("Palladium"), PAHC
Holdings and the principal stockholders of PAHC Holdings entered into an
agreement with respect to (i) the redemption price (consisting of $19,600 of
liquidation preference and $6,800 of equity value), (ii) amending the terms of
the post-redemption redemption price adjustment set forth in the certificate of
incorporation of the Company (a) from an amount payable upon occurrence of
certain capital stock transactions determined with respect to the value of the
Company upon the occurrence of such capital stock transaction, to a liquidated
amount of $4,000, payable only after the occurrence of certain capital stock
transactions and the receipt by the current stockholders of the Company, on a
cumulative basis, of an aggregate of $24,000 of dividends and distributions in
respect of such capital stock transactions, and (b) to remove the one year time
period for such adjustment of the redemption price, and (iii) eliminating the
backstop indemnification obligation of up to $4,000 of the Company to Palladium
incurred in connection with the sale by the Company to Palladium in December
2003 of The Prince Manufacturing Company ("PMC"). The excess of the redemption
price over the carrying value of the Series C Preferred Stock and the
elimination of the backstop indemnification obligation have been reflected as
adjustments to stockholder's deficit on the condensed consolidated balance sheet
at March 31, 2005. The Company has determined the fair value of the liability
for the post-redemption redemption price adjustment to be insignificant to the
consolidated financial statements, due to the uncertainty of the ultimate timing
of such payment, if any. Future changes in the fair value of the liability for
the post-redemption redemption price adjustment will be recorded through
earnings in the period in which such change occurs.

7. PRINCE TRANSACTIONS
Effective December 26, 2003, the Company completed the divestiture of
substantially all of the business and assets of Prince Quincy, Inc. (f/k/a The
Prince Manufacturing Company ("PMC")), to a company ("Buyer") formed by
Palladium Equity Partners II, LP and certain of its affiliates (the "Palladium
Investors"), and the related reduction of the Company's preferred stock held by
the Palladium Investors (collectively, the "Prince Transactions").
The divestiture of PMC has not been reflected as a discontinued operation
due to the existence of continuing supply and service agreements.
On December 29, 2004, the Company and the Buyer reached agreement regarding
the post-closing working capital adjustment, which resulted in a final $227
payment to the Company from the Buyer. The Company reassessed the accruals
relating to the Prince Transactions and adjusted the accruals accordingly. The
adjustments resulted in a net gain of $973 which was recorded as a decrease to
accumulated deficit.
PMC is included in the Company's Industrial Chemicals segment. The results

facility to: (i) increase the aggregate amount of borrowings available under
such working capital and letter of credit facilities from $27,500 to $32,500;
the amount of aggregate borrowings available under the working capital facility
remained unchanged at $17,500; (ii) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude

Indebtedness to exclude advances under the working capital facility; (iv) amend
the definition of Permitted Investments to allow other investments made during
the period from January 1, 2004 through June 30, 2004 in an aggregate amount not

June 30, 2004. The amendment was effective June 30, 2004 for items (i), (ii) and
(iii); effective January 1, 2004 for item (iv); and effective September 24, 2004
for item (v).
On December 21, 2004, concurrent with the completion of the offering of the
Additional Notes, the Company amended its domestic senior credit facility to:
(i) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude charges and expenses related to the
sale of the Belgium Plant in an aggregate amount not to exceed $26,800 for
purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (ii) amend the Indenture
reserve definition to include scheduled payments of interest due on the
Additional Notes; (iii) amend the maximum aggregate amount of borrowing

and (v) provide for the issuance of the Additional Notes and the sale of the
Belgium Plant and related transactions.
As of March 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with the financial
covenants of its domestic senior credit facility. The domestic senior credit
facility requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain levels of
trailing consolidated and domestic EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization) calculated on a monthly basis, and an
acceleration clause should an event of default (as defined in the agreement)
occur. In addition, there are certain restrictions on additional borrowings,
additional liens on the Company's assets, guarantees, dividend payments,
redemption or purchase of the Company's stock, sale of subsidiaries' stock,
disposition of assets, investments, and mergers and acquisitions.
The domestic senior credit facility contains a lock-box requirement and a
material adverse change clause should an event of default (as defined in the
agreement) occur. Accordingly, the amounts outstanding have been classified as
short-term and are included in loans payable to banks in the consolidated
balance sheet.

13. CONTINGENCIES
LITIGATION:
On or about April 17, 1997, CP Chemicals, Inc., a subsidiary ("CP"), and
the Company were served with a complaint filed by Chevron U.S.A. Inc.
("Chevron") in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey,
alleging that the operations of CP at its Sewaren plant affected adjoining
property owned by Chevron and alleging that the Company, as the parent of CP, is
also responsible to Chevron. In July 2002, a phased settlement agreement was
reached and a Consent Order entered by the Court. The Consent Order provided for
a period of due diligence investigation of the property owned by Chevron and
upon completion of the review of the results of the investigation, a decision
was to be made whether to opt out of the settlement or proceed. Negotiations
with Chevron regarding its allocation of responsibility and associated costs
under the Consent Order reached an impasse and it became necessary for the
Company and another defendant, Vulcan Materials Company, to opt out of the
settlement on April 21, 2005. It is expected that the litigation will resume.
While the costs and liabilities cannot be estimated with any degree of certainty
at this time, the Company believes that insurance recoveries will be available
to offset most of those costs.

The Company's subsidiary, Phibro-Tech, Inc. ("Phibro-Tech"), was named in
1993 as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") in connection with an action
commenced under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation,
and Liability Act ("CERCLA") by the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (the "EPA"), involving a former third-party fertilizer manufacturing site
in Jericho, South Carolina. An agreement has been reached under which such
subsidiary agreed to contribute up to $900 of which $635 has been paid as of
March 31, 2005. Some recovery from insurance and other sources is expected but
has not been recorded. The Company also has accrued its best estimate of any
future costs.
Phibro-Tech has resolved certain alleged technical permit violations with
the California Department of Toxic Substances Control ("DTSC") and has reached
an agreement to pay $425 over a six year period ending October 2008. The annual
payments required under this agreement are not expected to have any material
adverse impact on the Company.
Phibro-Tech and the DTSC are currently negotiating the settlement of
certain alleged technical permit violations from 2003. A preliminary assessment
of penalties in the amount of $49 has been made. Phibro-Tech, Inc. believes this
amount will be reduced.
In February 2000, the EPA notified numerous parties of potential liability
for waste disposal at a licensed Casmalia, California disposal site, including a
business, assets of which were originally acquired by a subsidiary in 1984. A
settlement has been reached in this matter and the Company has paid $171 in full
settlement.
On or about April 5, 2002, the Company was served, as a potentially
responsible party, with an information request from the EPA relating to a
third-party superfund site in Rhode Island. The Company has investigated the
matter, which relates to events in the 1950's and 1960's, and management does
not believe that the Company has any liability in this matter.
On or about August 13, 2004 the Company was served with a Request for
Information pursuant to Section 104 of CERCLA and Section 3007 of the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act relating to possible discharges into Turkey Creek
in Sumter, South Carolina. The Company has submitted its response to the Request
for Information and believes that, because its Sumter, South Carolina facility
is distant from Turkey Creek and does not discharge into Turkey Creek, the
likelihood of liability associated with this matter is remote.
By letter dated February 22, 2005, Phibro-Tech has been advised by the
adjoining property owner of Phibro-Tech's Powder Springs, Georgia property, of a
potential claim for property damage as a result of certain alleged environmental
conditions on Phibro-Tech's Powder Springs property. No specific claim was made
nor was any specific amount alleged. The Company is presently investigating this
matter but does not, at this time, believe there will be any material liability
resulting therefrom.
The Company and its subsidiaries are party to a number of claims and
lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business including product
liabilities and governmental regulation. Certain of these actions seek damages
in various amounts. In most cases, such claims are covered by insurance. The
Company believes that none of the claims or pending lawsuits, either
individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its
financial position or results of operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION:
The Company's operations, properties and subsidiaries are subject to a wide
variety of complex and stringent federal, state, local and foreign environmental
laws and regulations, including those governing the use, storage, handling,
generation, treatment, emission, release, discharge and disposal of certain
materials and wastes, the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater, the
manufacture, sale and use of pesticides and the health and safety of employees.
As such, the nature of the Company's current and former operations and those of
its subsidiaries exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims
with respect to such matters. Under certain circumstances, the Company or any of
its subsidiaries might be required to curtail operations until a particular
problem is remedied. Known costs and expenses under environmental laws
incidental to ongoing operations are generally included within operating
results. Potential costs and expenses may also be incurred in connection with
the repair or upgrade of facilities to meet existing or new requirements under
environmental laws or to investigate or remediate potential or actual
contamination and from time to time the Company establishes reserves for such
contemplated investigation and remediation costs. In many instances, the
ultimate costs under environmental laws and the time period during which such
costs are likely to be incurred are difficult to predict.
The Company's subsidiaries have, from time to time, implemented procedures
at their facilities designed to respond to obligations to comply with
environmental laws. The Company believes that its operations are currently in
material compliance with such environmental laws, although at various sites its
subsidiaries are engaged in continuing investigation, remediation and/or
monitoring efforts to address contamination associated with their historic
operations.
The nature of the Company's and its subsidiaries' current and former
operations exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims with
respect to environmental matters and the Company cannot assure it will not incur
material costs and liabilities in connection with such claims. Based upon its
experience to date, the Company believes that the future cost of compliance with
existing environmental laws, and liability for known environmental claims
pursuant to such environmental laws, will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial position.
Based upon information available, the Company estimates the cost of
litigation proceedings described above and the cost of further investigation and
remediation of identified soil and groundwater problems at operating sites,
closed sites and third-party sites, and closure costs for closed sites to be
approximately $2,756, which is included in current and long-term liabilities in
the March 31, 2005 condensed consolidated balance sheet (approximately $2,933 at
June 30, 2004).
14. GUARANTEES
As part of the Prince Transactions (as discussed in these notes to
condensed consolidated financial statements), as is normal for such
transactions, the Company has agreed to indemnify the Palladium Investors for
losses arising out of breach of representations, warranties and covenants. The
Company's maximum liability under such indemnification is limited to $15,000.
The Company established a $1,000 letter of credit escrow through December
2005 to collateralize certain indemnification obligations relating to the Prince
Transactions.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
This information should be read in conjunction with the condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in this Report.
The Company's Wychem, MRT and LaCornubia businesses have been classified as
discontinued operations. This discussion presents information only for
continuing operations, unless otherwise indicated. Phibro Animal Health
Corporation (the "Company" or "PAHC") presents its annual consolidated financial
statements on the basis of its fiscal year ending June 30.
GENERAL
The Company is a leading diversified global manufacturer and marketer of a
broad range of animal health and nutrition products, specifically medicated feed
additives (MFAs) and nutritional feed additives (NFAs), which are sold
throughout the world predominantly to the poultry, swine and cattle markets.
MFAs are used preventatively and therapeutically in animal feed to produce
healthy livestock. The Company believes it is the third largest manufacturer and
marketer of MFAs in the world, and that certain of its MFA products have leading
positions in the marketplace. The Company is also a specialty chemicals
manufacturer and marketer, serving primarily the United States pressure-treated
wood and chemical industries. The Company has several proprietary products, and
many of the Company's products provide critical performance attributes to
customers' products, while representing a relatively small percentage of total
end-product cost.
Holding Company and HoldCo Notes
During February 2005, PAHC Holdings Corporation ("Holdings") was formed to
hold the capital stock of the Company, except for its Series C Preferred Stock.
On February 10, 2005, Holdings issued $29.0 million aggregate principal amount
of its 15% Senior Secured Notes due 2010 (the "HoldCo Notes") in a private
placement. Interest is payable at the option of Holdings in cash or pay-in-kind
HoldCo Notes in its sole discretion. The Company is not obligated for the HoldCo
Notes. The Company's ability to make payments to Holdings is subject to the
terms of the Company's Senior Secured Notes, its Senior Subordinated Notes, and
its domestic senior credit facility, and to applicable law.
The proceeds from the sale of the HoldCo Notes were used to make a capital
contribution to the Company to finance the redemption of the Company's Series C
Preferred Stock in the amount of $26.4 million on February 28, 2005.
Holdings was formed by the holders of all of the Company's capital stock,
other than the holders of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock. In particular,
Jack Bendheim, Marvin Sussman and trusts for the benefit of Mr. Bendheim and his
family exchanged all of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Class B
Common Stock and Mr. Bendheim exchanged all of his shares of Class A Common
Stock, for the same number and class of shares of Holdings, having the same
designations, relative rights, privileges and limitations as the Company's
shares of such class (except to the extent that Holdings is a Delaware
corporation and the Company is a New York corporation). Holdings owns all the
outstanding capital stock of all classes of the Company.
The HoldCo Notes are collateralized by all of Holdings' assets (now
consisting substantially of all the outstanding capital stock of the Company).
The HoldCo Notes and such security interest are effectively subordinated to all
liabilities, including the Company's and its subsidiaries' trade payables, as
well as the Company's indenture indebtedness.
On May 16, 2005, Holdings completed the exchange of its privately placed
HoldCo Notes with new HoldCo Notes that have been registered with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
In connection with the redemption of the Company's Series C Preferred
Stock, the Company, Palladium Equity Partners II, LP ("Palladium"), PAHC
Holdings and the principal stockholders of PAHC Holdings entered into an
agreement with respect to (i) the redemption price (consisting of $19.6 million
of liquidation preference and $6.8 million of equity value), (ii) amending the
terms of the post-redemption redemption price adjustment set forth in the
certificate of incorporation
30
of the Company (a) from an amount payable upon occurrence of certain capital
stock transactions determined with respect to the value of the Company upon the
occurrence of such capital stock transaction, to a liquidated amount of $4.0
million, payable only after the occurrence of certain capital stock transactions
and the receipt by the current stockholders of the Company, on a cumulative
basis, of an aggregate of $24.0 million of dividends and distributions in
respect of such capital stock transactions, and (b) to remove the one year time
period for such adjustment of the redemption price, and (iii) eliminating the
backstop indemnification obligation of up to $4.0 million of the Company to
Palladium incurred in connection with the sale by the Company to Palladium in
December 2003 of The Prince Manufacturing Company ("PMC"). The excess of the
redemption price over the carrying value of the Series C Preferred Stock and the
elimination of the backstop indemnification obligation have been reflected as
adjustments to stockholder's deficit on the condensed consolidated balance sheet
at March 31, 2005. The Company has determined the fair value of the liability
for the post-redemption redemption price adjustment to be insignificant to the
consolidated financial statements, due to the uncertainty of the ultimate timing
of such payment, if any. Future changes in the fair value of the liability for
the post-redemption redemption price adjustment will be recorded through
earnings in the period in which such change occurs.
Discontinued Operations - Wychem
On April 29, 2005, the Company sold the shares of Wychem, an indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary, for cash proceeds of $4.8 million to an investor group
that included the former head of the Company's Specialty Chemicals Group, who
retired in August 2004, and the Managing Director of Wychem. The Company owned
Wychem through its subsidiaries: Koffolk (1949), Ltd. (Israel) which owned 75%
and Ferro Metal and Chemical Corporation Limited (U.K.) which owned 25%. The
Company anticipates that it will record a gain on the sale of Wychem of
approximately $1.5 million in the quarter ending June 30, 2005. Wychem was
included in the Company's All Other segment.
Belgium Plant Transactions
On December 16, 2004, Phibro Animal Health SA, ("PAH Belgium") entered into
an agreement with GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals ("GSK") to sell to GSK
substantially all of PAH Belgium's facilities in Rixensart, Belgium (the
"Belgium Plant"). Such sale, when completed (the "Belgium Plant Transactions"),
will include the following elements (U.S. dollar amounts at the March 31, 2005
exchange rate): (i) the transfer of substantially all of the land and buildings
and certain equipment of PAH Belgium at the Belgium Plant, as well as the
industrial activities and intellectual property relating to certain solvent
technology of PAH Belgium for a purchase price of EUR 6.2 million ($8.0
million), payable at closing; (ii) the transfer to GSK of a majority of the
employees of the Belgium Plant and the corresponding responsibility for
statutory severance obligations; (iii) GSK agreeing to be responsible for
cleaning-up, by demolition or otherwise, certain buildings not to be used by it,
but for PAH Belgium to reimburse GSK up to a maximum of EUR 0.7 million ($0.9
million) for such cleaning-up costs; (iv) in recognition of the benefits to PAHC
from the proposed transaction, PAH Belgium agreeing to pay to GSK EUR 1.5
million ($1.9 million) within six months from the closing date, EUR 1.5 million
($1.9 million) within eighteen months from the closing date, EUR 1.5 million
($1.9 million) within thirty months from the closing date, and EUR 0.5 million
($0.6 million) within forty-two months from the closing date; (v) PAH Belgium
retaining certain excess land (valued at approximately EUR 0.4 million ($0.5
million) and being able to sell such land for its own account; (vi) PAH Belgium
being responsible for certain plant closure costs and legally required severance
indemnities in connection with workforce reductions, estimated in total to be
EUR 10.2 million ($13.2 million), of which an amount estimated to be
approximately EUR 4.2 million ($5.4 million) would be payable at or around the
closing and an aggregate amount so estimated to be approximately EUR 6.0 million
($7.8 million) would be payable over periods up to thirteen years; and (vii) PAH
Belgium retaining any or all equipment at the Belgium Plant, and being able to
sell such equipment for the account of PAH Belgium or transfer such equipment,
together with other assets and rights related to the production of
virginiamycin, to PAH Brazil which owns a facility in Guarulhos, Brazil or in
connection with alternative production arrangements.
31
The foregoing transactions and agreements are subject to a closing that is
expected to occur on November 30, 2005, but in no event earlier than July 1,
2005 or later than June 30, 2006.
The Dutch Notes and related guarantees are collateralized by a mortgage on
the Belgium Plant which will be released in connection with the closing of the
sale of the Belgium Plant to GSK.
As a result of the above agreement, the Company will depreciate the Belgium
plant to its estimated salvage value of EUR 2.5 million ($3.1 million) as of the
projected closing date of November 30, 2005. The Company recorded incremental
depreciation expense of EUR 2.8 million, ($3.6 million) during the three months
ended March 31, 2005 and will record an additional EUR 6.3 million ($8.2
million) of incremental depreciation expense ratably through November 2005. The
Company recorded severance expense of EUR 6.7 million ($9.0 million) in December
2004 for the estimated minimum severance amounts indicated by law, contract,
and/or past practice. The Company recorded additional expense of EUR 1.0 million
($1.3 million) during the three months ended March 31, 2005 and estimates it
will record additional expense of EUR 2.6 million ($3.3 million) ratably through
November 2005 for severance, retention agreements and other costs. The
incremental depreciation expense of $3.6 million and severance expense of $10.3
million recorded through March 2005 are included in cost of goods sold on the
Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
income (loss).
The Company has determined that the carrying amount of the Belgium Plant at
March 31, 2005 is recoverable based on the estimated future cash flows arising
from the use of the assets.
In anticipation of transferring production of virginiamycin from the
Belgium Plant to an alternative production location, the Company has been
increasing inventory levels of virginiamycin to ensure adequate supplies during
the transfer period. At March 31, 2005 virginiamycin inventories were
approximately $43.0 million and are expected to continue to increase through
November 2005, based on current production rates.
Issuance of Additional 13% Senior Secured Notes
On December 21, 2004, the Company completed a private placement pursuant to
which the Company and Philipp Brothers Netherlands III B.V., an indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Dutch Issuer" and together with the
Company, the "Issuers") issued and sold 22,491 additional units consisting of
$18.2 million 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 of the Company (the "U.S.
Notes") and $4.3 million 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 of the Dutch Issuer
(the "Dutch Notes" and together with the U.S. Notes, the "Additional Notes"),
from which they received gross proceeds of $23.4 million. The proceeds were used
to refinance indebtedness outstanding under the Company's domestic senior credit
facility. The Company incurred financing costs of $2.3 million in connection
with the issuance of the Additional Notes. The Additional Notes were issued
under the Indenture dated October 21, 2003, as amended and supplemented (the
"Indenture") under which the Issuers previously issued 105,000 units consisting
of $85.0 million aggregate principal amount of U.S. Notes and $20.0 million
aggregate principal amount of Dutch Notes.
On March 9, 2005, the Company completed the exchange of its privately
placed 127,491 units of its 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 with new units of
its 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 that have been registered with the SEC.
Amendment to the Domestic Senior Credit Facility
On December 21, 2004, concurrent with the completion of the offering of the
Additional Notes, the Company amended its domestic senior credit facility to:
(i) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude charges and expenses related to the
sale of the Belgium Plant in an aggregate amount not to exceed $26.8 million for
purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (ii) amend the Indenture
reserve definition to include scheduled payments of interest due on the
Additional Notes; (iii) amend the maximum aggregate amount of borrowing
available under the working capital facility to permit a temporary increase to
$22.5 million and for its reduction to $17.5 million on such borrowings being
refinanced by the proceeds of the Additional Notes; (iv) amend the Permitted
Investments
32
definition to include investments in connection with the sale of the Belgium
Plant and transfer of certain equipment, together with other assets and rights
related to the production of virginiamycin, to PAH Brazil or in connection with
alternative production arrangements; and (v) provide for the issuance of the
Additional Notes and the sale of the Belgium Plant and related transactions.
OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Company's ability to fund its operating plan depends upon the continued
availability of borrowing under its domestic senior credit facility. The Company
believes that it will be able to comply with the terms of its covenants under
the domestic senior credit facility based on its forecasted operating plan. In
the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under this
facility, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain
waivers or amendments on favorable terms, if at all. The Company expects
adequate liquidity throughout 2005, with periods of reduced availability around
the dates of the semi-annual interest payments due June 1 and December 1 related
to its Senior Secured Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company is
pursuing additional cost reduction activities, working capital improvement
plans, and sales of non-strategic assets to ensure additional liquidity. The
Company also has availability under foreign credit lines that likely would be
available. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in any of
the above-noted actions.
The use of antibiotics in medicated feed additives is a subject of
legislative and regulatory interest. The issue of potential for increased
bacterial resistance to certain antibiotics used in certain food-producing
animals is the subject of discussions on a worldwide basis and, in certain
instances, has led to government restrictions on the use of antibiotics in
food-producing animals. The sale of feed additives containing antibiotics is a
material portion of the Company's business. Should regulatory or other
developments result in further restrictions on the sale of such products, it
could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position,
results of operations and cash flows.
The testing, manufacturing, and marketing of certain of the Company's
products are subject to extensive regulation by numerous government authorities
in the United States and other countries.
The Company has significant assets located outside of the United States,
and a significant portion of the Company's sales and earnings are attributable
to operations conducted abroad.
The Company has assets located in Israel and a portion of its sales and
earnings are attributable to operations conducted in Israel. The Company is
affected by social, political and economic conditions affecting Israel, and any
major hostilities involving Israel as well as the Middle East or curtailment of
trade between Israel and its current trading partners, either as a result of
hostilities or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company's operations, properties and subsidiaries are subject to a wide
variety of complex and stringent federal, state, local and foreign environmental
laws and regulations, including those governing the use, storage, handling,
generation, treatment, emission, release, discharge and disposal of certain
materials and wastes, the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater, the
manufacture, sale and use of pesticides and the health and safety of employees.
As such, the nature of the Company's current and former operations and those of
its subsidiaries exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims
with respect to such matters.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 AND 2004
Net Sales of $90.3 million increased $4.3 million, or 5%. Animal Health and
Nutrition sales of $69.0 million grew $4.2 million, or 7%, due to volume
increases and higher average selling prices. Specialty Chemical Group (comprised
of the Industrial Chemicals, Distribution and All Other segments) sales of $21.3
million increased $0.1 million.
Gross Profit of $18.8 million decreased $4.0 million, to 20.8% of net
sales. The Belgium Plant Transactions increased costs by $4.4 million for the
current quarter. Excluding this charge, Animal Health and Nutrition gross profit
increased due to higher average selling prices offset in part by higher unit
costs. The Specialty Chemical Group's gross profit increased slightly over the
2004 quarter.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses of $17.9 million increased
$1.9 million. Expenses in the operating segments increased over the prior year
due to higher research and development costs associated with registration
trials, unfavorable foreign exchange rates, advertising and promotion
expenditures and severance costs. Corporate expenses increased due to higher
debt amortization costs, professional fees and reduced PMC advisory fee income.
In addition, the Company recognized additional gains of $0.1 million from the
previous sale of its etchant business during the current fiscal quarter.
Operating Income of $0.9 million decreased $5.9 million from the 2004
quarter. Operating income, excluding the Belgium Plant Transactions, declined by
$0.6 million in Animal Health and Nutrition due to higher selling, general and
administrative expenses offset in part by increased gross profit. Specialty
Chemical Group operating income increased $0.1 million. Corporate expenses
increased by $1.0 million and also contributed to the decline.
Interest Expense, Net of $5.9 million increased $1.0 million from the 2004
quarter, primarily due to higher average interest rates and also higher
borrowing levels associated with the issuance of the Company's Senior Secured
Notes.
Other (Income) Expense, Net principally reflects foreign currency
transaction net (gains) losses related to short-term inter-company balances and
foreign currency translation (gains) losses. In addition, the Company recorded a
gain of $0.8 million on the sale of its PhibroTech Wilmington, Illinois
property.
Income Taxes of $0.8 million were recorded on a consolidated pre-tax loss
of $5.1 million. The tax rate reflects income tax provisions in profitable
foreign jurisdictions and for state income taxes. A provision for U.S. federal
income taxes has not been recorded due to the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards. The Company has recorded valuation allowances related to
substantially all deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate the
likelihood of recoverability of these deferred tax assets based upon actual and
expected operating performance.
34
COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 AND 2004
Net Sales of $269.2 million increased $7.6 million, or 3%. Animal Health
and Nutrition sales of $205.5 million grew $12.2 million, or 6%, due to volume
increases and also higher average selling prices. Specialty Chemical Group
(comprised of the Industrial Chemicals, Distribution and All Other segments)
sales of $63.7 million decreased $4.6 million. Excluding PMC, Specialty Chemical
group sales increased by $6.5 million, or 11%, due to volume increases in each
of the segments. The Specialty Chemical Group included PMC sales of $11.1
million for the 2004 period.
Gross Profit of $54.5 million decreased $11.4 million to 20.2% of net
sales. The Belgium Plant Transactions increased costs by $13.9 million for the
current period. Excluding this charge, Animal Health and Nutrition gross profit
increased due to higher unit volumes and average selling prices offset in part
by higher unit costs. The Specialty Chemical Group also contributed to the
improvement due to expanded sales of the Company's new copper-based wood
treatment product and higher unit volumes in its Distribution segment. The
Specialty Chemical Group included PMC gross profit of $3.6 million for the 2004
period.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses of $51.9 million increased
$3.6 million. Expenses in the operating segments, excluding PMC, increased over
the prior year due to higher research and development costs associated with
registration trials, unfavorable foreign exchange rates, advertising and
promotion expenditures and severance costs. Corporate expenses increased due to
higher debt amortization charges, professional fees, costs associated with the
relocation of the Company's corporate office and lower PMC advisory fees income
offset in part by the elimination of the Palladium management fee in fiscal
2004. In addition, the Company recognized additional gains of $0.8 million from
the previous sale of its etchant business during the current fiscal year. PMC
expenses were $1.3 million for the 2004 period.
Operating Income of $2.6 million decreased $15.0 million. Operating income,
excluding the Belgium Plant Transactions and PMC, improved in both the Animal
Health and Nutrition and Specialty Chemical Group with increased gross profit
offset in part by higher selling, general and administrative expenses. PMC
contributed $2.3 million for the 2004 period offset in part by the elimination
of the $1.1 million Palladium management fee.
Interest Expense, Net of $16.4 million increased $3.2 million from the 2004
period, primarily due to higher average interest rates and also higher borrowing
levels associated with the issuance of the Company's senior secured notes.
Other (Income) Expense, Net principally reflects foreign currency
transaction net (gains) losses related to short-term inter-company balances and
foreign currency translation (gains) losses. In addition, the Company recorded a
gain of $0.8 million on the sale of its PhibroTech Wilmington, Illinois
property.
Income Taxes of $0.7 million were recorded on a consolidated pre-tax loss
of $13.2 million. The tax rate reflects income tax provisions in profitable
foreign jurisdictions and for state income taxes. A provision for U.S. federal
income taxes has not been recorded due to the utilization of net operating loss
carryforwards. The Company has recorded valuation allowances related to
substantially all deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate the
likelihood of recoverability of these deferred tax assets based upon actual and
expected operating performance.

OPERATING SEGMENTS COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 AND 2004
ANIMAL HEALTH AND NUTRITION
NET SALES of $69.0 million increased $4.2 million, or 7%. MFA net sales
increased by $2.7 million. Revenues were higher primarily for antibiotics and
anticoccidials but were offset in part by lower sales of antibacterials. The
increase in MFA revenues was due to higher unit volumes and favorable currency
effect on international sales offset in part by lower average selling prices.
NFA net sales increased by $1.5 million principally due to higher average
selling prices of trace mineral premixes and other feed ingredients.
OPERATING INCOME of $3.4 million decreased $5.0 million from the 2004
period. Operating income, excluding costs relating to the Belgium Transactions
of $4.4 million, decreased due to higher selling, general and administrative
expenses and manufacturing costs offset in part by higher average selling
prices.
SPECIALTY CHEMICALS
INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS net sales of $8.9 million decreased $1.1 million, or
11%. Sales of copper- related products to the wood treatment markets were below
last year, but were partially offset by higher sales of other specialty copper
products arising from capacity expansion. The new copper based wood treatment
product, introduced in the March 2004 quarter, included unusually strong initial
volumes as customers increased inventory levels. Operating income of $1.0
million declined by $0.2 million from the 2004 quarter due to lower sales unit
volumes and changes in product mix.
DISTRIBUTION net sales of $7.8 million decreased $0.1 million, or 1%. Lower
sales volumes in Europe were offset in part by higher domestic unit volumes and
slightly higher average selling prices. Distribution operating income of $0.9
million improved by $0.1 million from the 2004 quarter due to increased sales of
higher margin products. As a percentage of sales, operating income was 11% and
10% in 2005 and 2004, respectively.
36
ALL OTHER net sales of $4.5 million increased $1.3 million. Revenues for
contract manufacturing increased due to higher average selling prices and
increased volumes. Operating income of $0.4 million increased by $0.2 million
over the prior period.
OPERATING SEGMENTS COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 AND 2004
ANIMAL HEALTH AND NUTRITION
NET SALES of $205.5 million increased $12.2 million, or 6%. MFA net sales
increased by $4.3 million. Revenues were higher primarily for antibiotics but
were offset in part by lower sales of antibacterials and anticoccidials. The
increase in MFA revenues was due to higher unit volumes, higher average selling
prices and favorable currency effect on international sales. NFA net sales
increased by $7.9 million principally due to volume increases and higher average
selling prices in trace mineral premixes and other feed ingredients.
OPERATING INCOME of $9.7 million decreased $13.2 million from the 2004
period. Operating income, excluding costs relating to the Belgium Transactions
of $13.9 million, improved due to higher average selling prices and sales unit
volumes offset in part by higher selling, general and administrative expenses
and manufacturing costs.
SPECIALTY CHEMICALS
INDUSTRIAL CHEMICALS net sales of $25.0 million, excluding PMC, increased
$2.4 million, or 11%. Sales of copper-related products to the wood treatment
markets increased due to the introduction of new copper based wood treatment
products and by higher sales of other specialty copper products arising from
capacity expansion. PMC, divested in December 2003, generated revenues of $11.1
million for the 2004 period. Operating income, excluding PMC, of $2.4 million
improved by $1.9 million from the 2004 period. This improvement was due to new
product introductions and savings from previously implemented headcount
reductions and facility restructurings in Phibro-Tech operations. PMC provided
operating income of $2.3 million for the 2004 period.
DISTRIBUTION net sales of $23.6 million increased $0.1 million. Higher
domestic unit volumes and slightly higher average selling prices were offset in
part by lower sales volumes in Europe. Distribution operating income of $2.6
million improved by $0.2 million from the 2004 period due to increased sales of
higher margin products. As a percentage of sales, operating income was 11% and
10% in 2005 and 2004, respectively.
ALL OTHER net sales of $15.1 million increased $4.0 million. Revenues for
contract manufacturing increased due to higher average selling prices and also
increased volumes. Operating income of $1.2 million decreased $0.2 million from
the prior period due to higher manufacturing costs.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On April 29, 2005, the Company sold the shares of Wychem, an indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary, for cash proceeds of $4.8 million to an investor group
that included the former head of the Company's Specialty Chemicals Group, who
retired in August 2004, and the Managing Director of Wychem. The Company owned
Wychem through its subsidiaries: Koffolk (1949), Ltd. (Israel) which owned 75%
and Ferro Metal and Chemical Corporation Limited (U.K.) which owned 25%. The
Company anticipates that it will record a gain on the sale of Wychem of
approximately $1.5 million in the quarter ending June 30, 2005. Wychem was
included in the Company's All Other segment.
In August 2003, the Company divested Mineral Resource Technologies, Inc and
shutdown its operations at La Cornubia. These businesses have been classified as
discontinued operations. The Company's consolidated financial statements have
been reclassified to report separately the operating results and cash flows of
the discontinued operations.

Mineral Resource Technologies, Inc. ("MRT"). In August 2003, the Company
divested MRT for net proceeds, after transaction costs, of approximately $13.8
million. MRT was included in the Company's All Other segment.
La Cornubia. On June 30, 2004, one of the Company's French subsidiaries, La
Cornubia SA ("La Cornubia"), filed for bankruptcy under the insolvency laws of
France. The Company believes that, as a result of the bankruptcy filing by La
Cornubia, it is possible that LC Holding S.A. ("LC Holding"), La Cornubia's
parent, a holding company with no assets except for its investment in La
Cornubia, may also file for bankruptcy in France. The Company does not believe
that La Cornubia's bankruptcy filing, nor the possible bankruptcy filing by LC
Holding, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or
results of operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net Cash (Used) by Operating Activities. Cash (used) by operations for the
nine months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was ($7.5) million and ($1.4) million,
respectively. Cash used was due to higher working capital requirements. The
Company is currently increasing inventory levels of virginiamycin to enhance
future supply flexibility and reduce cost as part of the planned exit of the
Belgium Plant. Total inventories increased by $16.4 million in the current
fiscal year. In addition, the Company paid $4.0 million of costs related to a
non-completed transaction that was charged to expense in fiscal 2004.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Investing Activities. Net cash provided (used)
by investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was
($4.0) million and $11.9 million, respectively. Capital expenditures of $5.1
million and $4.0 million for 2005 and 2004, respectively, were for new product
capacity, for maintaining the Company's existing asset base and for
environmental, health and safety projects. Discontinued operations, primarily
from the sale of MRT, provided funds of $14.8 million in 2004.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Financing Activities. Net cash provided (used)
by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was
$13.2 million and ($15.8) million, respectively. Proceeds from long-term debt
reflect the issuance of additional 13% Senior Secured Notes and borrowings of
Koffolk Israel. The decrease in short-term debt is due to the reduction of the
senior credit facility primarily funded from proceeds of additional long-term
debt. Payments of long-term debt reflect the repayments of Koffolk Israel
borrowings. The Company used $26.4 million of capital contribution from Holdings
Corporation to redeem for $26.4 million, the remaining Series C preferred stock.
Working Capital and Capital Expenditures. Working capital as of March 31,
2005 was $73.0 million compared to $54.4 million at June 30, 2004, an increase
of $18.6 million. The fiscal 2005 increase in working capital primarily was due
to higher inventory levels and to reduced short-term debt levels related to the
issuance of new long-term debt.
The Company anticipates spending approximately $8.0 million for capital
expenditures in fiscal 2005, primarily to cover the Company's asset replacement
needs, to improve processes, and for environmental and regulatory compliance,
subject to the availability of funds.
Liquidity. At March 31, 2005 the amount of credit extended under the
Company's domestic senior credit facility totaled $3.9 million under the working
capital facility and $10.5 million under the letter of credit facility, and the
Company had $13.6 million available under the working capital facility. In
addition, certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries also had availability
totaling $7.1 million under their respective loan agreements.
As of September 24, 2004, the Company amended its domestic senior credit
facility to: (i) increase the aggregate amount of borrowings available under
such working capital and letter of credit facilities to $32.5 million; the
amount of aggregate borrowings available under the working capital facility
remained unchanged at $17.5 million; (ii) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude
charges and expenses related to unsuccessful acquisitions and related financings
in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5.3 million for the period beginning
January 1, 2004 and ending June 30, 2004; (iii) amend the definition of
Additional Indebtedness to exclude advances under the working capital facility;
(iv) amend the definition of Permitted Investments to allow other investments
made during the period from
39
January 1, 2004 through June 30, 2004 in an aggregate amount not to exceed
$336,000; and (v) establish covenant EBITDA levels for the periods ending after
June 30, 2004. The amendment was effective June 30, 2004 for items (i), (ii) and
(iii); effective January 1, 2004 for item (iv); and effective September 24, 2004
for item (v).
On December 21, 2004, concurrent with the completion of the offering of the
Additional Notes, the Company amended the domestic senior credit facility to:
(i) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude charges and expenses related to the
sale of the Belgium Plant in an aggregate amount not to exceed $26.8 million for
purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (ii) amend the Indenture
reserve definition to include scheduled payments of interest due on the
Additional Notes; (iii) amend the maximum aggregate amount of borrowing
available under the working capital facility to permit a temporary increase to
$22.5 million and for its reduction to $17.5 million on such borrowings being
refinanced by the proceeds of the Additional Notes; (iv) amend the Permitted
Investments definition to include investments in connection with the sale of the
Belgium Plant and transfer of certain equipment, together with other assets and
rights related to the production of virginiamycin, to PAH Brazil or in
connection with alternative production arrangements; and (v) provide for the
issuance of the Additional Notes and the sale of the Belgium Plant and related
transactions.
The domestic senior credit facility contains a lock-box requirement and a
material adverse change clause should an event of default (as defined in the
agreement) occur. Accordingly, the amounts outstanding have been classified as
short-term and are included in loans payable to banks in the condensed
consolidated balance sheet.
The Company's ability to fund its operating plan depends upon the continued
availability of borrowing under its domestic senior credit facility. The Company
believes that it will be able to comply with the terms of its covenants under
the domestic senior credit facility based on its forecasted operating plan. In
the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under this
facility, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain
waivers or amendments on favorable terms, if at all. The Company expects
adequate liquidity throughout 2005, with periods of reduced availability around
the dates of the semi-annual interest payments due June 1 and December 1 related
to its Senior Secured Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes. The Company is
pursuing additional cost reduction activities, working capital improvement
plans, and sales of non-strategic assets to ensure additional liquidity. The
Company also has availability under foreign credit lines that likely would be
available. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in any of
the above-noted actions.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Critical accounting policies are those that require application of
management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result
of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently
uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.
Not all of these significant accounting policies require management to make
difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. However, management of
the Company is required to make certain estimates and assumptions during the
preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These estimates
and assumptions impact the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the
consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed
periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they are
determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The accounting policies and related risk described in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended June 30, 2004 are those that depend most heavily on
these judgments and estimates. As of December 31, 2004 there have been no
material changes to any of the critical accounting policies contained therein.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
During the quarter, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released three
new standards. These standards will be adopted by the Company during fiscal 2005
and are discussed in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements
included in this report.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
In the normal course of operations, the Company is exposed to market risks
arising from adverse changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates,
and commodity prices. As a result, future earnings, cash flows and fair values
of assets and liabilities are subject to uncertainty. The Company uses, from
time to time, foreign currency forward contracts as a means of hedging exposure
to foreign currency risks. The Company also utilizes, on a limited basis,
certain commodity derivatives, primarily on copper used in its manufacturing
processes, to hedge the cost of its anticipated purchase requirements. The
Company does not utilize derivative instruments for trading purposes. The
Company does not hedge its exposure to market risks in a manner that completely
eliminates the effects of changing market conditions on earnings, cash flows and
fair values. The Company monitors the financial stability and credit standing of
its major counterparties.
For financial market risks related to changes in interest rates, foreign
currency exchange rates and commodity prices, reference is made to Part II, Item
7, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk, in our annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 and to Notes 2 and
17 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included therein.
CERTAIN FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements that are not
historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements
preceded by, followed by or that include the words "may," "could," "would,"
"should," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "plan," "estimate," "target,"
"project," "intend," or similar expressions. These statements include, among
others, statements regarding our expected business outlook, anticipated
financial and operating results, our business strategy and means to implement
the strategy, our objectives, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, the
likelihood of our success in expanding our business, financing plans, budgets,
working capital needs and sources of liquidity.
43
Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of
performance. These statements are based on our management's beliefs and
assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information.
Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among
others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the expansion of product
offerings geographically or through new applications, the timing and cost of
planned capital expenditures, competitive conditions and general economic
conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Forward-looking statements
also involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results that
differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Many of
these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors
include, but are not limited to, the following:
- our substantial leverage and potential inability to service our debt
- our dependence on distributions from our subsidiaries
- risks associated with our international operations and significant
foreign assets
- our dependence on our Israeli operations
- competition in each of our markets
- potential environmental liability
- potential legislation affecting the use of medicated feed additives
- extensive regulation by numerous government authorities in the United
States and other countries
- our reliance on the continued operation and sufficiency of our
manufacturing facilities
- our reliance upon unpatented trade secrets
- the risks of legal proceedings and general litigation expenses
- potential operating hazards and uninsured risks
- the risk of work stoppages
- our dependence on key personnel
See also the discussion under "Risks, Uncertainties and Liquidity" in Note
2 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report.
In addition, the issue of the potential for increased bacterial resistance
to certain antibiotics used in certain food producing animals is the subject of
discussions on a worldwide basis and, in certain instances, has led to
government restrictions on the use of antibiotics in these food producing
animals. The sale of feed additives containing antibiotics is a material portion
of our business. Should regulatory or other developments result in further
restrictions on the sale of such products, it could have a material adverse
impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
We believe the forward-looking statements in this Report are reasonable;
however, no undue reliance should be placed on any forward-looking statements,
as they are based on current expectations. Further, forward-looking statements
speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to
update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Information regarding quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market
risk is set forth in Item 2 of this
44
Form 10-Q.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Based upon an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our Principal Executive Officers and our Principal Financial
Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures, they have concluded that, as of the end of the period
covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in
Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are
effective.
(b) As of the end of the period covered by this Report there have been no
changes in our internal controls that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
It should be noted that any system of internal controls, however well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance
that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any
control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of
future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control
systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its
stated goals under all potential conditions, regardless of how remote.
