Certain reclassifications of prior year data have been made to improve comparability.

Quaker Chemical Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Dollars
(Dollars in Thousands)
(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Condensed Financial Information

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting and Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 20022003 presentation. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. 2002.

As part of the Company'sCompany’s chemical management services, certain third party products are transferred to customerscustomers. Where the Company acts as a principal, revenues are recognized on a gross reporting basis at no gross profit and accordingly, these transactions are notthe selling price negotiated with clients. Where the Company acts as an agent, such revenue is recorded inusing net sales or expense.reporting as service revenues, at the amount of the administrative fee earned by the Company for ordering the goods. Third party products transferred under these arrangements and recorded net totaled $20,363$7,287 and $15,552$6,186 for the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2003 and 2002, and 2001, respectively. Sales and cost of sales for the third quarter and nine months of 2002 are approximately $575 higher than

As previously reported in its October 30, 2002 press release. The change is due to a review and determination that a recent chemical management service arrangement should be reporteddisclosed, on a gross basis based on the nature of the integrated product and service offering versus net as an agent. This reclassification had no effect on gross margin and accordingly net income. Effective JulyMarch 1, 2002, the Company acquired a controlling interestcertain assets and liabilities of Quaker Chemical South Africa (Pty.United Lubricants Corporation (“ULC”) Ltd (South Africa), a previously 50% owned joint venture. As a result, South Africa, previously reported usingand on April 22, 2002, the equity method, isCompany acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Epmar Corporation (“Epmar”). The allocation of purchase price of assets and liabilities recorded for the acquisitions are now a fully consolidated 51% owned subsidiary. The effect of thisfinal and did not materially change was not material tofrom the financial statements. 4 amounts disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Note 2 - Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2001,January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"(“FASB”), issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), “Consolidation of Certain Variable Interest Entities, (“VIEs”), which is an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS51, “Consolidated Financial Statements.” FIN 46 addresses the application of ARB No. 143 addresses accounting51 to VIEs, and reporting for obligations associated withgenerally would require that assets, liabilities and results of the retirementactivities of tangible long-lived assets anda VIE be consolidated into the associated retirement costs. This statementfinancial statements of the enterprise that is considered the primary beneficiary. FIN 46 is effective for fiscal yearsinterim periods beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new standard. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." The provisions of this statement provide2003 to VIEs in which an enterprise holds a single accounting model for impairment of long-lived assets. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2002. Management has assessed the impact of the new standard and determined there to be no material impact to the financial statements. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 62, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13 and Technical Corrections." For most companies, SFAS No. 145 will require gains and losses on extinguishments of debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations rather than as extraordinary items as previously required under SFAS No. 4. Extraordinary treatment will be required for certain extinguishments as provided in APB Opinion No. 30. The statement also amended SFAS No. 13 for certain sales-leaseback and sublease accounting. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 145 effective Januaryvariable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company is currently evaluatingin the impactprocess of adoptionreviewing the provisions of this statement.

Note 3 – Stock-Based Compensation

In JulyDecember 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.” This standard amends the transition and disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 146, "Accounting123, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities", which nullified EITF Issue No. 94-3.Stock-Based Compensation.” As permitted by SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability148, the Company continues to account for a cost associatedstock option grants in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for stock options since all options granted had an exit or disposal activity be recognized whenexercise price equal to the liability is incurred, whereas EITF No 94-3 had recognizedmarket value of the liability atunderlying stock on the commitment date to an exit plan.grant date. The Company is requiredtypically issues the majority of its stock options annually during the first quarter. Therefore, the Company expects there to adoptbe little to no pro-forma impact to earnings per share for the subsequent 2003 quarters. The following tables illustrate the effect on net earnings and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 146 effective123 as well as the assumptions used in the calculation for exit or disposal activities initiated after Decemberthe three months ended March 31, 2002. 5 :

The acquisition of ULC strategically strengthens the Company's global leadership supply position to the steel industry. The following table shows the preliminary fair value of assets and liabilities recorded for the acquisition: Receivables $ 4,456 Inventories 828 Property, plant and equipment 4,155 Goodwill 5,437 Intangible assets 2,350 Other assets 74 ------- 17,300 ------- Accounts payable 2,148 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities 265 Other current liabilities 849 ------- 3,262 ------- Cash paid for acquisition $14,038 ======= The $5,437 of goodwill was assigned to the Metalworking process chemicals segment, and the entire amount is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The $2,350 of intangible assets comprised $1,400 of branded customer lists, $700 of formulations, $200 of trademarks and $50 in non-compete agreements. These intangibles are being amortized over a five-year period. The cash paid for acquisition increased approximately $362 during the third quarter of 2002 related to transaction costs incurred and post closing adjustments. Such costs have been allocated to goodwill. Further, goodwill has also increased for working capital adjustments and refinements of estimates of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The results of operations of ULC are included in the consolidated statement of income beginning March 1, 2002. Pro-forma results of operations have not been provided because the effects are not material. 10 On April 22, 2002, the Company acquired one hundred percent of the outstanding stock of Epmar Corporation ("Epmar"), a North American manufacturer of polymeric coatings, sealants, adhesives, and various other compounds, for approximately $7,611 and the assumption of $400 of debt.

Note 8 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 142 established new guidelines for accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets. Upon adoption, goodwill is no longer amortized, but instead assessed for impairment at least on an annual basis. Accordingly, on January 1, 2002, the Company ceased amortizing its goodwill. The Company completed impairment assessment of its goodwill and did not incur an impairment charge related to the adoption of SFAS No. 142. Further, the Company completed its annual impairment assessment as of the end of the third quarter 2002 and no impairment charge was warranted. The following is a reconciliation of previously reported financial information to pro-forma amounts exclusive of goodwill amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2001: Net income $1,116 Goodwill amortization expense, net of tax 168 ------ Pro-forma net income $1,284 ====== Earnings per share, basic and diluted $ 0.12 Goodwill amortization expense, net of tax 0.02 ------ Pro-forma earnings per share, basic and diluted $ 0.14 ====== The following is a reconciliation of previously reported financial information to pro-forma amounts exclusive of goodwill amortization for the nine months ended September 30, 2001: Net income $9,243 Goodwill amortization expense, net of tax 524 ------ Pro-forma net income $9,767 ====== Earnings per share, basic and diluted $ 1.02 Goodwill amortization expense, net of tax 0.06 ------ Pro-forma earnings per share, basic and diluted $ 1.08 ======

Note 9 - Debt In April 2002, the Company entered into a $20.0 million committed credit facility, with a bank, which expires in April 2003. At the Company's option, the interest rate for borrowings under the agreement may be based on the lender's cost of funds plus a margin, LIBOR plus a margin, or on the prime rate. The provisions of the agreement require that the Company maintain certain financial ratios and covenants, all of which the Company was in compliance with as of September 30, 2002. A total of $13.0 million in borrowings was outstanding under this facility as of September 30, 2002 at an average borrowing rate of approximately 2.4%. In April 2002, the Company entered into a $10.0 million uncommitted demand credit facility with the same lender under similar terms. A total of $10.0 million in borrowings under this facility was outstanding as of September 30, 2002 at an average borrowing rate of approximately 2.4%. These facilities replaced an uncommitted facility in the amount of $18.0 million, which was terminated in July 2002, with all balances outstanding repaid through borrowings under the new facilities discussed above. Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in environmental clean-up activities and litigation in connection with an existing plant location and former waste disposal sites. The Company identified certain soil and groundwater contamination at AC Products, Inc. ("ACP"(“ACP”), a wholly owned subsidiary. In coordination with the Santa Ana California Regional Water Quality Board, ACP is remediating the contamination. During the second quarter of 2000, it was discovered during an internal environmental audit that ACP had failed to properly report its air emissions. In response, an internal investigation of all environmental, health, and safety matters at ACP was conducted. ACP has voluntarily disclosed these matters to regulators and has taken steps to correct all environmental, health and safety issues discovered. In connection with these activities the Company recorded pre-tax charges totaling $500 and $1,500 in 2001 and 2000, respectively. The Company believes that the remaining potential-known liabilities associated with these matters ranges from approximately $1,200$900 to $2,100,$1,600, for which the Company has sufficient reserves. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company cannot be certain that liabilities in the form of remediation expenses, fines, penalties, and damages will not be incurred in excess of the amount reserved. Additionally, although there can be no assurance regarding the outcome of other environmental matters, the Company believes that it has made adequate accruals for costs associated with other environmental problems of which it is aware. Approximately $226 and $260 was accrued at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively, to provide for such anticipated future environmental assessments and remediation costs. A non-operating

An inactive subsidiary of the Company that was acquired in 1978 had sold certain products containing asbestos, containing products. This subsidiaryprimarily on an installed basis, and is a co-defendantamong the defendants in claims filed by multiple claimantsnumerous lawsuits alleging injury due to exposure to asbestos. Effective October 31, 1997,The subsidiary discontinued operations in 1991 and has no remaining assets other than its existing insurance policies. To date, the subsidiary's insurance carriersoverwhelming majority of these claims have been disposed of without payment and there have been no adverse judgments against the subsidiary. Based on an initial analysis of the existing and anticipated future claims against this subsidiary, it is currently projected that the subsidiary’s total liability over the next 50 years for these claims is approximately $15 million (excluding the costs of defense). Although the Company has also been named as a defendant in certain of these cases, no claims have been actively pursued against the

Company and the Company has not contributed to the defense or settlement of any of these cases pursued against the subsidiary. These cases have been handled to date by the subsidiary’s primary insurers who agreed to pay all defense costs and be responsible for all damages and costs (including attorneys' fees)assessed against the subsidiary arising out of all existing and future asbestos claims up to applicable policy limits. Although there can be no assurance regarding the potential liabilities associated withaggregate limits of the existingpolicies. A significant portion of this primary insurance coverage was provided by an insurer that is now insolvent, and the other primary insurers have recently asserted that the aggregate limits of their policies have been exhausted. The subsidiary is challenging the applicability of these limits to the claims proceedings,being brought against the subsidiary. The subsidiary has additional coverage under its excess policies. The Company believes, however, that if the coverage issues under the primary policies are resolved adversely to the subsidiary, believes that it has adequate primary and excessthe subsidiary’s insurance coverage for its potentialwill likely be exhausted within the next three to five years. As a result, liabilities relatedin respect of claims not yet asserted may exceed coverage available to claims of which it is aware. the subsidiary.

If the subsidiarysubsidiary’s insurance coverage were to be ever exhausted, claimants of the subsidiary may actively pursue claims against the Company because of the parent-subsidiary relationship. Although asbestos litigation is particularly difficult to predict, especially with respect to claims that are currently not requiredbeing actively pursued against the Company, the Company does not believe that such claims would have merit or that the Company would be held to have liability for any unsatisfied obligations of the subsidiary as a result of such claims. After evaluating the nature of the claims filed against the subsidiary and will not fund the subsidiary's liabilitiessmall number of such claims that have resulted in excessany payment, the potential availability of coverage. In the absence ofadditional insurance coverage at the subsidiary level, asbestos claimants might pursue derivative or otherthe additional availability of the Company’s own insurance coverage and the Company’s strong defenses to claims againstthat it should be held responsible for the subsidiary’s obligations because of the parent-subsidiary relationship, the Company in an effort to hold it liable forbelieves that the acts and/inactive subsidiary’s liabilities will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or omissions, if any,results of the subsidiary. The Company believes, although it can give no assurances, that it would be successful defending any such claims. operations.

The Company is party to other litigation which management currently believes will not have a material adverse effect on the Company'sCompany’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. 14

Item 2. Management's

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Quaker’s cash and cash equivalents decreased to $12.0 million at March 31, 2003 from $13.9 million at December 31, 2002. The decrease resulted primarily from $3.6 million cash used in operating activities, $0.4 million cash used in investing activities, offset by $1.7 million cash provided by financing activities.

Net cash flows used in operating activities were $3.6 million in the first quarter of 2003 compared to cash flows provided by operating activities were $13.3 million in the first nine months of 2002 compared to $15.5$0.6 million in the same period of 2001.2002. The decrease was primarily due to increases in the changes inincreased cash out flows of working capital accounts receivable, inventories, and decreases in restructuring liabilities, offset by increaseshigher net income, depreciation and amortization. Increased inventory levels were caused by higher business activity, higher raw material costs and the build up of additional inventory in the changes inBrazil to provide protection against foreign exchange rate differentials. Decreased cash flows from accounts payable and accrued liabilities. liabilities were due to higher annual incentive compensation payments as well as timing related to higher levels of accounts payable. The change in cash flows from accounts receivable in the first quarter of 2002 is reflective of the generally poor economic conditions experienced by the Company’s customers in late 2001 and early 2002.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $29.1$0.4 million in the first nine monthsquarter of 20022003 compared to $5.3$15.1 million in the same period of 2001.2002. The increasedecrease was primarily related to payments$13.7 million used in the first quarter of $21.3 million in 2002 related tofor the acquisitionsacquisition of certain assets and liabilities of United Lubricants Corporation ("ULC"(“ULC”) and Epmar Corporation ("Epmar"), compared. During the first quarter of 2003 the Company received a $1.8 million priority distribution from its real estate joint venture. The Company expects to a payment of $1.5receive an additional $2.2 million related to an acquisitionpriority distribution later in 2001. See also Note 7 Business Acquisitions. 2003.

Expenditures for property, plant, and equipment totaled $7.6$2.1 million in the first nine monthsquarter of 20022003 compared to $5.0$1.5 million in the same period of 2001.2002. The increase in spending wasis primarily due to increased capital expenditures related to the resultCompany’s ERP implementation, upgrades to the Company’s Conshohocken laboratory facility, and the timing of the project to implement a global transaction system and the move into new corporate headquarters. Capital expenditures forCompany’s 2002 are expected to be approximately $12 million. acquisitions.

Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $18.5$1.7 million for the first nine monthsquarter of 20022003 compared with a net cash use of $4.8$10.0 million for the same period of the prior year. The net change was primarily due to approximately $23.0$12.0 million of short-term borrowings incurred in the first

quarter of 2002 primarily used to finance the ULC and Epmar acquisitions. In April 2002, the Company entered into a $20.0acquisition versus $3.8 million committed credit facility, with a bank, which expiresof short-term borrowings in April 2003. At the Company's option, the interest rate for borrowings under the agreement may be based on the lender's cost of funds plus a margin, LIBOR plus a margin, or on the prime rate. 2003 used to fund working capital needs.

The provisions of the agreement require that the Company maintain certain financial ratios and covenants, all of which the Company was in compliance with as of September 30, 2002. A total of $13.0 million in borrowings was outstanding under this facility as of September 30, 2002 at an average borrowing rate of approximately 2.4%. 15 In April 2002, the Company entered into a $10.0 million uncommitted demand credit facility with the same lender under similar terms. A total of $10.0 million in borrowings under this facility was outstanding as of September 30, 2002 at an average borrowing rate of approximately 2.4%. These facilities replaced an uncommitted facility in the amount of $18.0 million, which was terminated in July 2002, with all balances outstanding repaid through borrowings under the new facilities discussed above. Despite the Company's acquisitions, the Company believes that its balance sheet remains strong with approximately $23 milliona debt to total capital ratio of cash26% as of the March 31, 2003 compared to 25% at the end of September. It is the intent2002 and 30% as of the Company to utilize some of this cash to pay down a portion of the Company's short term borrowings in the fourth quarter ofMarch 31, 2002. The Company further believes that its current credit facilities, which expire in April of 2003, will be renewed or replaced at competitive rates upon their termination in 2003. Accordingly, the Company believes, that in 2002 and 2003, it is capable of supporting its operating requirements paymentsincluding pension plan contributions, payment of dividends to shareholders, possible acquisition and business opportunities, and possible resolution of contingencies, through internally generated funds supplemented with debt as needed. Financial market declines have reduced the asset value of the Company's pension plans and will likely result in a non-cash charge to equity in the fourth quarter. The amount of the charge will depend on 2002 investment returns. The charge will have no effect on 2002 net income. In addition, in 2003, the Company is likely to have mandatory cash contributions to its plan that are approximately $2 million higher than 2002 levels.

Operations Sales and cost of sales for the third quarter and nine months of 2002 are approximately $575 higher than previously reported in its October 30, 2002 press release. The change is due to a review and determination that a recent chemical management service arrangement should be reported on a gross basis based on the nature of the integrated product and service offering versus net as an agent. This reclassification had no effect on gross margin and accordingly net income.

Comparison of First Nine Months 2002Quarter 2003 with First Nine Months 2001 Quarter 2002

Consolidated net sales for the first nine monthsquarter of 20022003 were $202.7 million,a record $73.3, a 22% increase compared to $192.8 million in the first nine monthsquarter of 2001. The sales comparison was2002. Foreign exchange rate translation and the timing of the Company’s 2002 acquisitions favorably impacted net sales for the quarter by approximately $2.0 million and $5.6 million respectively. Excluding the inclusionimpact of revenues fromforeign exchange rate translation and the acquisitionstiming of ULC and Epmar earlier this year, as well as the purchase of a controlling interest in the Company's South Africa joint venture, which was effective July 1, 2002. Sales increases were also partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translations. At constant exchange rates and excluding revenue fromCompany’s 2002 acquisitions, consolidated net sales would have been essentially flat compared$65.7 million or 9.6% above the prior year. A Non-GAAP measure of net sales, which excluded the impact of foreign exchange rate translation and the timing of the Company’s 2002 acquisitions, has been included because the Company believes it is helpful to 2001. 16 the reader in comparing performance in the current year first quarter to the comparable period in the prior year. Net sales in all regions except Europe increased on a local currency basis demonstrating improvements in both volume and price/mix. Overall, Quaker realized somewhat of a rebound from the softness in the Company’s global markets experienced during the first quarter of 2002.

Cost of sales decreasedincreased as a percentage of sales from 59.5%59.4% in 2001the first quarter of 2002 to 59.2%61.3% in 2002.the first quarter of 2003. The improvement wasincrease is primarily a result of lowerincreased raw material costs. costs and product mix. The Company expects raw material prices to be higher in 2003, especially in the first half, due to higher oil prices experienced earlier in the year.

Selling , general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $66.0increased $2.7 million inover the first nine monthsquarter of 2002. Timing of the Company’s 2002 wereacquisitions and foreign exchange rate translation accounted for approximately 12% higher thantwo thirds of the $58.9 million reported in the first nine months of 2001. The increase was primarily the result of SG&A expenses of ULC, Epmar and South Africa, and higherincrease. As previously disclosed, increased costs such as pension, insurance, and other administrative costs. The first nine months of 2002 were also favorably impacted by the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142,Company’s ERP implementation, accounted for the company no longer amortizes goodwill. The Company reported approximately $0.8 million of goodwill amortization in the first nine months of 2001. In addition, in the third quarter of 2001 the Company recorded an additional reserve for doubtful accounts of $0.5 million related to the poor financial condition of certain U.S. steel customers that filed for bankruptcy protection under the provisions of Chapter 11. In the third quarter of 2001, the Company recorded restructuring and nonrecurring charges totaling $3.2 million on a pre-tax basis. These charges consist of restructuring charges of $3.0 million, primarily related to plans to close and sell our manufacturing facilities in the U.K. and France, as well as other cost reduction efforts. Nonrecurring organizational consulting expenses of $0.2 million were also incurred. See also Note 6 Restructuring and Nonrecurring Expenses. remaining

Other income variance primarily reflects increased foreign exchange losses in the first quarter of 2003 compared with gains in the first nine monthsquarter of 2002 compared with the first nine months of 2001, offset by lower license fee revenue in 2002 compared with 2001.2002. Net interest expense was favorable in the first nine months of 2002 compared tois slightly below the prior year despite increased borrowingsprimarily due to fund the ULC and Epmar acquisitions, due todecreased debt levels, lower borrowing rates and the impact of principal payments made on the Company'sCompany’s higher rate long-term debt. Equity income inis higher for the first nine monthsquarter of 20022003 compared to the first nine monthsquarter of 2001 reflects lower income year over year from the Company's joint venture in Mexico, the start up2002, due to improved results of the Company'sour real estate joint venture in Conshohocken, PA and the consolidation of the Company's South Africa joint venture. Minority interest was lower inhigher for the first nine monthsquarter of 20022003 compared with the same period last year, primarily due to lower net income from the Company's subsidiarypurchase of a controlling interest in Brazil. 17 our South African joint venture, which was effective July 1, 2002.

The effective tax rate for 20022003 is currently 32%33%, compared to 31%32% in the prior year. The effective tax rate is dependent on many internal and external factors, and is assessed by the Company on a regular basis. The Company

Other Significant Items

As previously announced in the Company’s April 11, 2003 press release, Quaker has been assessed approximately $2.6 millionawarded a series of additional taxesmulti-year contracts to provide chemical management services (CMS) for General Motors Powertrain manufacturing sites. These contracts will be implemented during the second quarter of 2003. In addition, Daimler-Chrysler has also recently awarded the Company a CMS contract for its Trenton Engine plant.

For 2003, the earnings impact due to the new CMS sites is expected to be immaterial due to transition and start-up costs, largely in the second quarter. Future profitability of the contracts will be based on Quaker’s ability to identify and implement cost reduction programs and product conversions. In addition, the new contracts will result in an auditincreased investment of certainworking capital estimated to be $4 million, although this amount will be dependent on the final terms negotiated with suppliers.

These new contracts will cause future income statements to show different relationships between margins and revenue than in the past. At the majority of its subsidiariescurrent CMS sites, the Company effectively acts as an agent for prior years.the customer whereby it purchases chemicals from other companies and resells the product to the customer at little or no margin. The Company has initiated an appeal process related to this assessmentrevenue and currently believes its reservescosts from these sales are adequate. Comparison of Third Quarter 2002 with Third Quarter 2001 Consolidatedreported on a net sales or “pass-through” basis. The structure of the new GM Powertrain site contracts is different in that the Company’s revenue received from the customer will be in the nature

of a fee for the third quarter of 2002 were a record $73.3 million, a 15% increase comparedproducts and services provided to the third quarter of 2001. The sales comparison was favorably impacted by the inclusion of revenues from ULC, Epmar and South Africa. The impact of foreign currency translations was not material to the quarterly comparison, as the strengthening Euro was largely offset by the weakening Brazilian Real and Argentine Peso. At constant exchange rates and excluding ULC, Epmar and South Africa revenues, consolidated net sales would have been up approximately 5% compared to 2001. Cost of sales decreased as a percentage of sales from 60.4% in the third quarter of 2001 to 59.9% in the third quarter of 2002. The improvement was primarily a result of lower raw material costs. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the third quarter of 2002 were up $3.6 million from the third quarter of 2001. SG&A expenses of ULC, Epmar and South Africa accounted for approximately one half of the quarterly increase. Higher pension, insurance, and other administrative costs were also factors. The third quarter of 2002 was also favorably impacted by the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the company no longer amortizes goodwill. The Company reported approximately $0.2 million of goodwill amortization in the third quarter of 2001. In addition, in the third quarter of 2001 the Company recorded an additional reserve for doubtful accounts of $0.5 millioncustomer, which are indirectly related to the poor financial conditionactual costs incurred. As a result, the Company will recognize in reported revenues the gross revenue received from the CMS site customer, and in cost of certain U.S. steel customers that filed for bankruptcy protection under the provisions of Chapter 11. Ingoods sold, the third quarter of 2001,party product purchases, which will substantially offset each other. This will result in a significant increase in the Company recorded restructuring and nonrecurring charges totaling $3.2Company’s reported revenue, estimated to be approximately $35-$40 million on a pre-tax basis. These charges consist of restructuring charges of $3.0 million, primarily relatedan annualized basis, income from which will be dependent upon Quaker’s ability to plansprofitably manage these contracts, to closeidentify and sell our manufacturing facilities in the U.K. and France, as well as other 18 implement cost reduction efforts. Nonrecurring organizational consulting expenses of $0.2 million were also incurred. See also Note 6 Restructuringprograms and Nonrecurring Expenses. Other income variance primarily reflects foreign exchange gains in the third quarter of 2002 compared with foreign exchange losses in the third quarter of 2001. Net interest expense was unfavorable in the third quarter of 2002 compared to the prior year, due to increased borrowings to fund the ULC and Epmar acquisitions. Equity income in the third quarter of 2002 was down compared to equity income in the third quarter 2001 due to the consolidation of South Africa. Minority interest was higher in the third quarter of 2002 compared with the same period last year, as a result of the consolidation of South Africa The uncertain global economic and political environment and rising raw material prices creates uncertainty regarding fourth quarter earnings. However, the Company currently expects to achieve similar earnings in the fourth quarter as the third quarter, which provides the prospect that earnings for the full year 2002 will slightly exceed 2001 full-year earnings, which exclude the 2001 special items. Earnings for the full-year 2001, excluding special items, were $1.49 per share. Special items totaling $0.65 per share are inclusive of the following: $0.20 for facility rationalization costs, $0.20 for severance costs, $0.04 for costs related to abandoned acquisitions, $0.15 for additional provisions for doubtful accounts, $0.02 for organizational structure costs and $0.04 for increases in environmental reserves. Regarding 2003,implement product conversions.

In addition, the Company is anticipating U.S. pension costscurrently negotiating similar contract structures for some of its existing CMS sites. It is possible that this will be $0.08 to $0.12 higher per share, depending on 2002 investment returns. In addition, raw material prices are expected to be higher in 2003. The Company is currently in the midst of the budget process and a full year 2003 forecast is not yet available. However, it is the goal ofalso require the Company to have increased earnings yearrecognize an additional $10-$15 million in annualized sales starting in the second quarter.

The impact on gross margin due to these developments in CMS is estimated to be approximately 4 to 6 percentage points over year. Other Significant Items On March 1, 2002,the next several months. As the Company acquired certain assetsbegins to implement cost reduction programs and liabilities of United Lubricants Corporation for approximately $14.0 million. The acquisition resulted inproduct conversions, this should begin to reduce the recognition of approximately $5.4 million of goodwill and $2.4 million of intangible assets. Pro-forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects were not material. 19 On April 22, 2002, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Epmar Corporation for $7.6 million and the assumption of $0.4 million of debt. The acquisition resulted in the recognition of approximately $3.3 million of goodwill and $2.9 million of intangible assets. Pro-forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects were not material. Effective July 1, 2002, the Company acquired a controlling interest in Quaker Chemical South Africa (Pty.) Ltd (South Africa), a previously fifty-percent owned joint venture. As a result, South Africa, previously reported using the equity method, is now a fully consolidated subsidiary. The effect of this change was not material to the financial statements. Euro Conversion On January 1, 1999, 11 of the 15 member countries of the European Union established fixed conversion rates between their existing currencies ("legacy currencies") and one common currency - the euro. The euro trades on currency exchanges and may be used in business transactions. In January 2002, new euro-denominated bills and coins were issued, and legacy currencies were withdrawn from circulation. The Company's operating subsidiaries affected by the euro conversion executed plans to address the systems and business issues raised by the euro currency. The euro conversion did not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Forward-Looking and negative gross margin impact.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Quaker is exposed to the impact of interest rates, foreign currency fluctuations, changes in commodity prices, and credit risk.

Interest Rate Risk. Quaker'sRisk. Quaker’s exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to its short and long-term debt. Most of Quaker'sQuaker’s long-term debt has a fixed interest rate, while its short-term debt is negotiated at market rates which can be either fixed or variable. Incorporated by reference is the information in "Liquidityunder the caption “Liquidity and Capital Resources"Resources” in Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on pages 1011 and 31,33, respectively, of the Registrant's 2001Registrant’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K. Accordingly, if10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 (the “2002 Form 10-K”). If interest rates rise significantly, the cost of short-term debt to Quaker will increase. This can have ana material adverse effect on Quaker depending on the extent of Quaker'sQuaker’s short-term borrowings. As of September 30, 2002,March 31, 2003, Quaker had $23.0$13.2 million of short-term borrowings. borrowings compared to $9.3 million as of December 31, 2002.

Foreign Exchange Risk.Risk. A significant portion of Quaker'sQuaker’s revenues and earnings is generated by its foreign subsidiaries. These foreign subsidiaries also hold a significant portion of Quaker's assets and liabilities. operations.

Incorporated by reference is the information concerning Quaker'sQuaker’s non-U.S. activities appearing in Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 3538 of the Registrant's 2001 Annual Report filed on2002 Form 10-K. EachAll such subsidiaries uses itsuse the local currency as their functional currency. Accordingly, Quaker'sQuaker’s financial results are affected by risks typical of global business such as currency fluctuations, particularly between the U.S. dollar, the Brazilian real and the E.U. euro. As exchange rates vary, Quaker'sQuaker’s results can be materially adversely affected.

In the past, Quaker has used, on a limited basis, forward exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency transactions and foreign exchange options to reduce exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. The amount of any gain or loss on these derivative financial instruments was immaterial. Quaker is not currently a party to any derivative financial instruments. Therefore, adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 138, did not have a material impact on Quaker's operating results or financial position as of September 30, 2002. 21

Commodity Price Risk.Risk. Many of the raw materials used by Quaker are commodity chemicals, and, therefore, Quaker'sQuaker’s earnings can be materially adversely affected by market changes in raw material prices. In certain cases, Quaker has entered into fixed-price purchase contracts having a term of up to one year. These contracts provide for protection to Quaker if the price for the contracted raw materialmaterials rises, however, in certain limited circumstances, Quaker will not realize the benefit if such price declines.prices decline. Quaker has not been, nor is it currently a party to, any derivative financial instrument relative to commodities.

Credit Risk.Risk. Quaker establishes allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of Quaker'sQuaker’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. Downturns in the overall economic climate may also tend to exacerbate specific customer financial issues. A significant portion of Quaker'sQuaker’s revenues is derived from sales to customers in the U.S. steel industry where a number of bankruptcies occurred during recent years. In 2000, 2001, and early 2002, Quaker recorded additional provisions for doubtful accounts primarily related to bankruptcies in the U.S. steel industry. When a bankruptcy occurs, Quaker must judge the amount of proceeds, if any, that may ultimately be received through the bankruptcy or liquidation process. In addition, asAs part of its terms of trade, Quaker may custom manufacture products for certain large customers and/or may ship product on a consignment basis. These practices may increase the Company'sCompany’s exposure should a bankruptcy occur, and may require writedown or disposal of certain inventory due to its estimated obsolescence or limited marketability. Customer returns of products

or disputes may also result in similar issues related to the realizability of recorded accounts receivable or returned inventory. Incorporated by reference is the information in "Criticalunder the captions “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates"Estimates” and "Liquidity“Liquidity and Capital Resources"Resources” in Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations beginning on pages 8 and 1011 respectively, of the Registrant's 2001 Annual Report filed on2002 Form 10-K. 22
