CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [Abstract]

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the accounting policies described in its December 31, 2014 consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes, which appear in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. References in this report to the “Company” mean either Balchem Corporation or Balchem Corporation and its subsidiaries, including  BCP Ingredients, Inc., Aberco, Inc., Balchem BV, Balchem Italia Srl, Performance Chemicals & Ingredients Company, SensoryEffects Powder Systems, Inc., SensoryEffects Cereal Systems, Inc., SensoryEffects Flavor Company, SensoryEffects International Sales, Inc., and SEPS Reading LLC, on a consolidated basis, as the context requires.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements furnished in this Form 10-Q include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) governing interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and therefore do not include some information and notes necessary to conform to annual reporting requirements. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year or any interim period.

Retrospective Revision of Certain Prior Period Information

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, information that our chief operating decision maker regularly reviews for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance changed, and as a result, the Company changed its communication to external investors. Therefore, beginning in fiscal year 2015, we are reporting our financial performance based on our new segments described in Note 10 – Segment Information. We have retrospectively revised certain prior period amounts to conform to the way we internally manage and monitor segment performance during the current fiscal year. This change impacted Note 6 – Intangible Assets and Note 10 – Segment Information, with no impact on consolidated net income or cash flows.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company completed its review of the acquired tax balances associated with the SensoryEffects acquisition.  As a result, the following December 31, 2014 balances were retrospectively revised as follows: goodwill and deferred income taxes were increased by $260. The revision is measured as of the acquisition date and considers adjustments that would have been recognized had the deferred taxes been recorded as of the acquisition date. There was no impact on consolidated net income or cash flows. See Note 2.
