NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. The consolidated balance sheet as of April 1, 2005 and the consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of cash flow for the three months ending April 1, 2005 and April 2, 2004 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flow at April 1, 2005 and for all periods presented have been made.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. The results of operations for the period ended April 1, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

 

On May 28, 2004, the Company purchased the remaining 50% ownership interest of Armkel, LLC (“Armkel”) that it did not own from affiliates of Kelso & Company (“the Armkel acquisition”) for a purchase price of approximately $262.0 million and Armkel was merged into the Company. Results of operations for Armkel’s business are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from May 29, 2004. Prior to May 28, 2004, the Company accounted for its investment in Armkel under the equity method. All material intercompany transactions and profits have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Company’s fiscal year begins on January 1 of the year stated and ends on December 31. Quarterly periods are based on a 4 weeks - 4 weeks - 5 weeks methodology. As a result, the first quarter can include a partial or expanded week in the first four week period of the quarter. Similarly, the last five week period in the fourth quarter could be a partial or expanded week.

Diluted EPS includes additional dilution from potential common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options outstanding and the dilutive effect of contingently convertible debt instruments. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate Basic EPS is reconciled to those shares used in calculating Diluted EPS as follows:

5. Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for costs of stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB 25”), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, rather than the fair-value based method in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. In connection with the Armkel acquisition, the Company paid cash and issued options to purchase 97,500 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price of $22.88 per share to certain executives in accordance with the provisions of Armkel’s Equity Appreciation Rights Plan (“EAR Plan”). The unvested portion of the EAR Plan options is being amortized over a two year vesting period and is recognized as expense as vesting occurs. In 2005, the amount recognized as expense for the stock options granted under the EAR Plan was $0.3 million for the first quarter.

 

The Company’s pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, determined as if the Company had adopted the fair value method of SFAS 123, are as follows:

6. Segment Information

 

The Company maintains three reportable segments. These segments are based on differences in the nature of products and organizational and ownership structures. Specifically, the Company has identified the following segments: Consumer Domestic, Consumer International and Specialty Products Division (“SPD”).

 

Segment revenues are derived from the sale of the following products:

 

Segment


  

Products


Consumer Domestic

   Deodorizing and cleaning, laundry, and personal care products

Consumer International

   Primarily personal care products

SPD

   Specialty chemical products

 

The Company has 50 percent ownership interests in Armand Products Company (“Armand”) and The ArmaKleen Company (“ArmaKleen”). Since the Company does not control these entities, they are accounted for under the equity method in the consolidated financial statements of the Company. With respect to periods prior to the Armkel acquisition, the equity earnings of Armkel’s domestic results are included in the Consumer Domestic segment, and its international results in the Consumer International segment. The equity earnings of Armand and ArmaKleen are included in Corporate.

 

Some of the subsidiaries that are included in Consumer International manufacture and sell personal care products to Consumer Domestic. These sales are eliminated from the Consumer International results.

8. Armkel, LLC

 

On May 28, 2004, the Company purchased the remaining 50% of Armkel that it did not previously own from affiliates of Kelso for a purchase price of approximately $262.0 million.

 

Pro forma comparative net sales, net income and basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended April 2, 2004 are as follows:

The pro forma information gives effect to the Company’s purchase of Kelso’s interest in Armkel as if it occurred at January 1, 2003. Pro forma adjustments included the inventory step-up charge, equity appreciation rights, additional interest expense and the related income tax impact, as well as elimination of intercompany sales.

 

The allocation of purchase price to certain intangibles has not yet been finalized since an independent appraisal is still in process. However, management does not believe that the finalization of the purchase price allocation will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company made cash contributions of approximately $1.7 million to certain of its pension plans in the first quarter and expects to make additional contributions of $2.8 million during the remainder of 2005.

 

13. Commitments, contingencies and guarantees

 

  a. In December 1981, the Company formed a partnership with a supplier of raw materials which mines and processes sodium mineral deposits owned by each of the two partners in Wyoming. The Company purchases the majority of its sodium raw material requirements from the partnership. This agreement terminates upon two years’ written notice by either company. The Company has an annual commitment to purchase 240,000 tons, based upon market price. There are no other material transactions with the partnership or the Company’s partner.

 

  b. The Company’s distribution of condoms under the Trojan and other trademarks is regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Certain of the Company’s condoms and similar condoms sold by its competitors, contain the spermicide nonoxynol-9 (N-9). The World Health Organization and other interested groups have issued reports suggesting that N-9 should not be used rectally or for multiple daily acts of vaginal intercourse, given the ingredient’s potential to cause irritation to human membranes. The Company expects the FDA to issue non-binding draft guidance concerning the labeling of condoms with N-9, although the timing of such draft guidance remains uncertain. The Company believes that condoms with N-9 provide an acceptable added means of contraceptive protection and is cooperating with the FDA concerning the appropriate labeling revisions, if any. However, the Company cannot predict the outcome of the FDA review. While awaiting further FDA guidance, the Company has implemented interim labeling revisions that caution against rectal use and more-than-once-a-day vaginal use of N-9-containing condoms, and has launched a public information campaign to communicate these messages to the affected communities. If the FDA or state governments promulgate rules which prohibit or restrict the use of N-9 in condoms (such as new labeling requirements), the financial condition and operating results of the Company could suffer.

 

  c. The Company has commitments to acquire approximately $75.0 million of raw material and packaging supplies from its vendors. The packaging supplies are in either a converted or non-converted status. This enables the Company to respond quickly to changes in customer orders/requirements.

 

  d. The Company has outstanding letters of credit of approximately $7.5 million with several banks which guarantee payment for such things as insurance claims in the event of the Company’s insolvency, a year’s worth of lease payments on a warehouse, and 200 days of interest on an Industrial Revenue Bond borrowing.

  e. In connection with the acquisition of Unilever’s oral care brands in the United States and Canada, the Company is required to make additional performance-based payments of a minimum of $5 million and a maximum of $12 million over the eight year period following the October 2003 acquisition. All payments will be accounted for as additional purchase price. The Company has paid approximately $3.1 million since the acquisition.

 

  f. The Company, in the ordinary course of its business, is the subject of, or a party to, various pending or threatened legal actions. The Company believes that any ultimate liability arising from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position.

 

14. Assets Held For Sale

 

As part of the Armkel acquisition, the Company has title to property and facilities in Cranbury, New Jersey, which includes research facilities that are in use as well as assets that are held for sale. In the third quarter of 2004, the Company entered into a contract to sell sections of the land available for development (and demolish the remaining buildings at the buyer’s expense), subject to obtaining environmental and other regulatory approvals. The Company expects to close on the sale before the end of 2005. In the first quarter of 2005, the Company entered into a contract to sell the remaining assets held for sale. The contract is subject to the buyer’s due diligence. The value expected to be received for all land at the Cranbury, NJ location (other than that related to the research facilities), net of costs to sell, is approximately $11.0 million. These assets are included in the Consumer Domestic segment.

 

In January 2005, the Company signed an agreement to sell its manufacturing plant in Mexico. The new owner of the plant will manufacture products for the Company. At the end of April, the Company closed on the sale of this facility and received, net of costs to sell, approximately $2.3 million, which is included in the Consumer International segment.

 

15. Reclassification

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform with the current year presentation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Results of Operations

 

The discussion of results of operations at the consolidated level is followed by a more detailed discussion of results of operations by segment for the first quarter of 2005 compared to the first quarter 2004. The segment discussion also presents certain product line fluctuations. With the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in Armkel, LLC (“Armkel”) that the Company did not previously own from affiliates of Kelso & Company (“Kelso”) on May 28, 2004, and Armkel’s subsequent merger with the Company, the results of operations of the former Armkel business are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements from the date of acquisition.

 

Consolidated Results

 

Net Sales

 

Net sales for the quarter increased by $124.7 million or 42.1% to $420.7 million, as compared to $296.0 million in the previous year’s first quarter. Of the increase, $122.6 million reflects sales of products formerly owned by Armkel, which are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated results, and favorable foreign exchange rates of $0.8 million.

 

Operating Costs

 

The Company’s gross margin in the current quarter increased to 38.1% from 32.6% in the prior year. The increase is in large part a result of the products formerly owned by Armkel, which carry on average a higher gross profit margin than other Company products. Excluding the impact of the former Armkel business, gross margin declined. This decline is due to sharp price increases for oil-based raw and packaging materials and certain commodity chemicals during the second half of 2004.

 

Marketing expenses in the current quarter were $37.6 million, an increase of $13.5 million as compared to the same period of 2004 primarily as a result of approximately $15.0 million in expenses associated with the former Armkel products. Marketing expenses for the Company’s pre-existing product lines were slightly lower than last year as a result of lower expenses for certain deodorizing and cleaning products.

 

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in the current quarter increased $21.5 million as compared to the same period last year. This is primarily a result of costs associated with the former Armkel business of approximately $24.0 million. Other SG&A expenses declined due to lower deferred and performance-based compensation costs and decreases in information system costs and costs to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley legislation.

 

Other Income and Expenses

 

The decrease in equity in earnings of affiliates of $8.6 million in the current quarter as compared to the year ago period is due to the Company’s acquisition of Kelso’s interest in Armkel on May 28, 2004. The combined earnings of the Company’s other equity investments slightly increased.

 

Other income and expense in 2005 includes the effect of foreign exchange remeasurement losses related to intercompany loans between the Company’s subsidiaries. The 2004 amount reflects a gain on the sale of a warehouse by our Canadian subsidiary.

 

Interest expense increased in the quarter as a result of interest associated with the assumption of Armkel’s indebtedness and the Company’s additional indebtedness required to purchase Kelso’s interest in Armkel.

 

Taxation

 

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 34.8% as compared to 33.0% for the same period of last year. Last year’s tax rate was impacted favorably by an amended prior year tax return that resulted in a benefit related to a prior year research and development tax credit.

 

Segment results

 

The Company maintains three reportable segments. These segments are based on differences in the nature of products and organizational and ownership structures. Specifically, the Company has identified the following segments: Consumer Domestic, Consumer International and Specialty Products Division (“SPD”).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)

 

Segment revenues are derived from the sale of the following products:

Some of the subsidiaries that are included in Consumer International manufacture and sell personal care products to Consumer Domestic. These sales are eliminated from the Consumer International results.

First Quarter 2004

     33,790      4,634      5,476      742      44,642

 

(1) In determining Income Before Taxes and Minority Interest, Interest Expense, Interest Income, and Other Income (Expense) were allocated to the segments based upon each segments’ relative Operating Profit. With respect to the first quarter of 2004, which was prior to the Armkel acquisition, the equity earnings of Armkel’s domestic results are included in the Consumer Domestic segment and its international results are in the Consumer International segment. The equity earnings of Armand and ArmaKleen are included in Corporate.

 

Consumer Domestic

 

For the first quarter of 2005, Consumer Domestic Net Sales increased $61.7 million or 26.1% to $297.7 million. Personal care products increased $61.0 million due to sales of $62.9 million associated with the domestic results of the former Armkel products. Deodorizing products increased $2.7 million and laundry products decreased $2.0 million. Net sales of the former Armkel products in the first quarter of 2004, when their sales were not consolidated with those of the Company, totaled approximately $58.0 million.

 

Consumer Domestic Income before Taxes and Minority Interest for the current quarter increased $7.2 million to $41.0 million. This is due to the increased contribution from the former Armkel products, slightly lower marketing costs associated with certain deodorizing and cleaning products and lower SG&A for the reasons noted above attributable to the non-Armkel portion of the business. The higher profitability was partially offset by higher oil based manufacturing and freight costs. The segment was also impacted by higher interest costs resulting from the Armkel purchase.

 

Consumer International

 

Consumer International Net Sales for the current quarter as compared to the same period of last year increased $60.3 million to $69.4 million. The current quarter included $59.7 million of sales attributable to the former Armkel international business and the effect of favorable foreign exchange rates. Net sales of the former Armkel subsidiaries in the first quarter of 2004, when their sales were not consolidated with those of the Company, totaled approximately $55.8 million. The increase of $3.9 million includes a favorable foreign exchange effect of $3.1 million.

 

Income before Taxes and Minority Interest increased $6.2 million to $10.9 million as a result of the inclusion of the former Armkel international business results following the acquisition, partially offset by higher interest costs associated with the Armkel acquisition.

 

Specialty Products (SPD)

 

Specialty Products Net Sales grew $2.7 million or 5.3% to $53.6 million in the first quarter of 2005, as a result of higher sales of animal nutrition products and favorable foreign exchange rates.

 

Specialty Products Income before Taxes and Minority Interest decreased $0.7 million to $4.7 million as a result of higher manufacturing costs for certain specialty chemicals, and an increase in allocated interest expense, partially offset by higher profit contribution associated with higher animal nutrition product sales.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company had outstanding total debt of $790.5 million and cash of $101.9 million (of which approximately $58.4 million resides in foreign subsidiaries). This compares to total debt of $858.7 million at December 31, 2004. The reduction of debt since the beginning of the fiscal year is primarily due to voluntary bank debt payments of $75.0 million, partially offset by an increase of $6.3 million associated with the Company’s accounts receivable securitization. In April 2005, the accounts receivable securitization facility was renewed with a new maturity date of April 2006.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is a required component of the financial covenants contained in the Company’s primary credit facility and management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a financial indicator of the Company’s ability to service its indebtedness. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, which is determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Financial covenants include a total debt to Adjusted EBITDA leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio, which if not met, could result in an event of default and trigger the early termination of the credit facility, if not remedied within a certain period of time. Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $79.5 million for the first quarter of 2005. The leverage ratio (total debt to Adjusted EBITDA) for the 12 months ended April 1, 2005 which, under the loan agreement, permits the inclusion of Armkel’s EBITDA prior to its acquisition by the Company for pro forma purposes was approximately 2.74 versus the agreement’s maximum 4.25, and the interest coverage ratio (Adjusted EBITDA to total interest expense) for the twelve months ended April 1, 2005 was approximately 5.44 versus the agreement’s minimum of 3.0. This credit facility is secured by the assets of the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries. The reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended April 1, 2005 is as follows (in thousands):

 

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

   $ 31.2  

Interest Expense

     10.6  

Current Income Tax Provision

     16.0  

Distributions from Affiliates

     1.9  

Change in Working Capital and Other Liabilities

     22.7  

Investment Income

     (0.8 )

Other

     (2.1 )
    


Adjusted EBITDA (per loan agreement)

   $ 79.5  
    


Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

   $ (5.4 )
    


Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

   $ (69.4 )
    


 

During the first quarter of 2005, cash flow from operating activities was $31.2 million. Major factors affecting cash flow from operating activities included operating earnings before non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, and a $22.7 million increase in working capital (excluding cash and cash equivalents) and other liabilities. Operating cash flow, together with distributions from affiliates, proceeds from stock option exercises and existing cash, were used to make voluntary and mandatory debt repayments, additions to property, plant and equipment, and the payment of dividends.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a revised version of SFAS No. 123, “Share-Based Payment”, a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” and eliminates the alternative of using the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB 25”) which was permitted in Statement 123 as originally issued. Under APB 25, issuing stock options to employees generally resulted in recognition of no compensation cost. SFAS No. 123R requires entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based upon the grant date fair value of those awards in their income statements. For the Company, this Statement becomes effective January 1, 2006. As of the required effective date, any public company that used the fair-value method of disclosure under Statement 123 will apply this Statement using a modified version of prospective application. Under the transition method, compensation cost is recognized on or after the required effective date for the portion of outstanding awards for which the requisite service has not yet been rendered, based on the grant date fair value of those awards calculated under Statement 123 for either recognition or pro forma disclosures.

 

The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the “AJCA”) was enacted on October 22, 2004. The AJCA repeals an export incentive, creates a new deduction for qualified domestic manufacturing activities and includes a special one-time deduction of 85% of certain foreign earnings repatriated to the U.S.

 

The FASB issued FSP FAS 109-1, “Application of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004” (FSP FAS 109-1) on December 21, 2004. In accordance with FSP FAS 109-1, the Company will treat the deduction for qualified domestic manufacturing activities, which is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2005, as a reduction of the income tax provision in future years as realized.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued FSP FAS 109-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004,” allowing companies additional time to evaluate the effect of the AJCA on plans for reinvestment or repatriation of foreign earnings. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effects of the repatriation provision.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The Company is facing higher costs for several categories of raw and packaging materials, particularly those based on energy prices. In response, the Company has intensified its margin enhancement strategies, and is in the process of implementing a range of formulation, packaging, logistics and other cost reduction programs.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

  a. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

  b. Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
