Series 1: For the fiscal year 2011 and 2012 awards vesting for the Series 1 awards is subject to a performance requirement composed of certain revenue growth objectives and average annual return on invested capital or equity objectives measured across a three year period. For the fiscal year 2013 award vesting is subject to performance requirements composed of certain objectives including average annual return on invested capital and annual compound growth rate in the Company’s diluted earnings per share. These objectives are measured quarterly using the Company’s budget, actual results and long-term projections. For each of the Series 1 awards, the expected percentage of vesting is based on performance through April 30, 2013 and reflects the percentage of shares projected to vest for the respective awards at the end of their measurement periods.

Series 2: Vesting for the Series 2 awards is subject to performance requirements pertaining to the growth rate in the Company’s basic earnings per share over a three year period. The achievement of performance requirements is measured quarterly using the Company’s budget, actual results and long-term projections. For the fiscal year 2011 and 2012 awards, the expected percentage of vesting is based on performance through April 30, 2013 and reflects the percentage of shares projected to vest for the respective awards at the end of their measurement periods.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of performance awards outstanding was $17.02 and $15.10 at April 30, 2013 and August 1, 2012, respectively.

10. Long-Term Debt

The Company’s debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

	April 30, 2013		July 31, 2012
	(Amounts in thousands)
Senior secured debt
Note purchase agreement, maturing on December 31, 2014, interest rate of 7.43%	$	20,000	$	20,000
Secured debt
Revolving loan facility, maturing on April 30, 2018, variable interest rates based on LIBOR plus 1.50% (1.70% at April 30, 2013)		2,000		4,000
Total debt		22,000		24,000
Current maturities of long-term debt		—		—
Long-term debt, net of current maturities	$	22,000	$	24,000

To finance the acquisition of the electronic chemicals business in December 2007, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement and a note purchase agreement. The amended and restated credit agreement is now with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and with Bank of America, N.A. The note purchase agreement is now with The Prudential Insurance Company of America and Pruco Life Insurance Company.

Initially, the amended and restated credit agreement included a revolving loan facility and a term loan facility. The Company amended these facilities several times, most recently in April and in May 2013 to increase the amount that may be borrowed under the revolving loan up to $110.0 million, to include an accordion feature that allows for an additional revolving loan increase of up to $25.0 million with approval from the Company’s lenders, and to extend the maturity date of the revolving loan facility to April 30, 2018. The matrix for the calculation of interest payable on the revolving loan facility and the method for the calculation of the fixed charge coverage ratio were also revised.

13

The revolving loan bears interest at a varying rate of LIBOR plus a margin based on our funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”).

Ratio of Funded Debt to EBITDA	Margin
Equal to or greater than 2.5 to 1.0		2.25	%
Equal to or greater than 2.0 to 1.0, but less than 2.5 to 1.0		2.00	%
Equal to or greater than 1.5 to 1.0, but less than 2.0 to 1.0		1.75	%
Less than 1.5 to 1.0		1.50	%

Advances outstanding under the revolving loan bear interest at 1.70% as of April 30, 2013 (LIBOR plus 1.50%). The amount outstanding on the revolving loan at April 30, 2013 was $2.0 million. See Note 13 for a description of the subsequent event pertaining to the closing of the Company’s acquisition of the Ultra Pure Chemicals subsidiaries of OM Group, Inc., and the increase in the Company’s borrowing under the revolving loan at May 31, 2013 to $67.0 million.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2012 the Company repaid the outstanding balance of the term loan with borrowings on the revolving loan and in a November 2011 amendment, that aspect of the facility was deleted. Before the term loan facility was paid off and removed from the amended and restated credit agreement, the term facility required principal payments of $458,333 per month for the first 24 months, then, beginning January 2010, principal payments became $666,667 per month for the balance of the term prior to maturity.

The note purchase agreement is for $20.0 million. Advances under the note purchase agreement mature on December 31, 2014, and bear interest at 7.43% per annum. Principal is payable at maturity. At April 30, 2013, $20.0 million was outstanding under the note purchase agreement.

Loans under the amended and restated credit agreement and the note purchase agreement are secured by the Company’s assets, including inventory, accounts receivable, equipment, intangible assets, and real property. The credit facility and the note purchase agreement have restrictive covenants, including that the Company must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.5 to 1.0, a ratio of funded debt to EBITDA (as adjusted for extraordinary items, with lender consent) of 3.0 to 1.0, and a current ratio of at least 1.5 to 1.0.

11. Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the interim periods was computed using the effective tax rate based on the application of an estimated annual effective income tax rate applied to year-to-date income before income tax expense. In determining the estimated annual effective income tax rate, we analyze various factors, including forecasts of projected annual earnings and the ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carry forwards. The overall effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the three and nine month period ended April 30, 2013 of 26.2% and 34.1%, respectively, includes the impact of certain discrete tax items related to prior year credits and uncertain tax positions. Excluding the impact of those discrete items, the effective tax rate for continuing operations for the three months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately 33.8% and 38.3%, respectively, and 35.9% and 39.2% for the nine months of fiscal year 2013 and 2012, respectively. In general, differences between these effective tax rates and the rate of 35.0% are primarily due to foreign and state income taxes.

The Company recorded a liability for its uncertain tax position in Italy in the amount of $358,000, which includes penalties and interest, in the quarter ended January 31, 2013. However, the Company does not expect all of this amount to result in cash payments, as the Company would be able to utilize available net operating losses. These uncertain tax positions primarily relate to transfer pricing. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to uncertain tax positions and penalties as a component of income tax expense. Prior to the quarter ended January 31, 2013, the Company did not record any uncertain tax positions.

12. Litigation and Other Contingencies

The Company is subject to contingencies, including litigation relating to environmental laws and regulations, commercial disputes and other matters. Certain of these contingencies are discussed below. The ultimate resolution of these contingencies is subject to significant uncertainty, and should the Company fail to prevail in any of them or should several of them be resolved against the Company in the same reporting period, these matters could, individually or in the aggregate, be material to the consolidated financial statements. The ultimate outcome of these matters, however, cannot be determined at this time, nor can the amount of any potential loss be reasonably estimated, and as a result except where indicated no amounts have been recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company records legal costs associated with loss contingencies as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

14

A lawsuit was filed against the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, KMG de Mexico, relating to the title to the land on which its facility in Matamoros is located. The plaintiffs claim that their title to the land is superior to the person from whom our subsidiary bought the land. The plaintiffs are seeking to have our subsidiary’s purchase overturned, and to recover the land and certain improvements or their value. The lawsuit was initially filed in 1998 in Matamoros, Mexico underAdolfo Cazares Rosas, et al vs. KMG de Mexico and Guillermo Villarreal. In January 2008, the case was sent by the appeals court back to the lower court to obtain additional factual information, and on April 20, 2009 the plaintiffs were required to re-file the case in the First Civil Court in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico asAdolfo Cazares, Luis Escudero and Juan Cue vs. KMG de Mexico and Guillermo Villarreal. In June 2011 the lower court ruled against KMG de Mexico, and held that the plaintiffs had superior title to the land, but that verdict was overturned on appeal in May 2012, and the case will be returned to the trial court for further action. The Company intends to continue to vigorously defend KMG de Mexico.

The Company’s subsidiary in Italy is currently under examination by the taxing authority there for the three year period ended July 31, 2011. Adjustments were proposed by the taxing authority at the end of April 2011 that would result in approximately €1.3 million of additional income tax, and further adjustments were proposed in May 2013 in the amount of €404,000 (in each case including interest and penalties). If all the adjustments are sustained, the additional tax for the years 2010 through 2011 would total approximately $2.3 million (including interest and penalties, at an exchange rate of 1.307 $/€). The Company provided additional information in response to the proposed adjustments, but the taxing authority reaffirmed its original determination, and assessed tax based on its original adjustments. The Company recorded a liability for an uncertain tax position for items in the amount of $358,000. See Note 11 for further discussion. The Company intends to continue vigorously defending its tax position. The ultimate outcome of this examination is subject to uncertainty.

In May 2013 the taxing authority in Italy assessed additional registration tax against the Company’s subsidiary in Italy based on their increased valuation of assets purchased from Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. in December 2007. The assessment is for €770,000 (or approximately $1.0 million, at an exchange rate of 1.307 $/€), including interest and penalties. The Company must respond to the taxing authority by July 19, 2013. The Company intends to vigorously defend its tax position. The ultimate outcome of this assessment is subject to uncertainty.

The Company is subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations and potential liabilities relating to the protection of the environment and human health and safety including, among other things, the cleanup of contaminated sites, the treatment, storage and disposal of wastes, the emission of substances into the air or waterways, and various health and safety matters. The Company expects to incur substantial costs for ongoing compliance with such laws and regulations. The Company may also face governmental or third-party claims, or otherwise incur costs, relating to cleanup of, or for injuries resulting from, contamination at sites associated with past and present operations. The Company accrues for environmental liabilities when a determination can be made that they are probable and reasonably estimable.

13. Acquisition

The Company announced on June 3, 2013 that it had completed its acquisition of the Ultra Pure Chemicals subsidiaries of OM Group, Inc. (“OM Group”) located in the United States, England, Singapore and France. The purchase price was $63.3 million in cash, including approximately $17.3 million of working capital. The subsidiaries sell high purity, wet process chemicals to the semiconductor industry. The Company completed the acquisition by borrowing on the revolving loan under a revised credit facility, and the amount borrowed under the Company’s revolving loan facility increased to $67.0 million on May 31, 2013. The revised credit facility consisted of facility amendments entered in April and May 2013 with our current lenders: (i) a fourth and a fifth amendment to the amended and restated credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and Bank of America, N.A., and (ii) amendment no. 4 and no. 5 to the note purchase agreement and limited consent with The Prudential Insurance Company of America. See Note 10 for further discussion.

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

We manufacture, formulate and distribute specialty chemicals globally. We operate businesses engaged in electronic chemicals and industrial wood treating chemicals. Our electronic chemicals are sold to the semiconductor industry, where they are used primarily to clean and etch silicon wafers in the production of semiconductors. Our wood treating chemicals, pentachlorophenol (“penta”) and creosote are used by our industrial customers primarily to extend the useful life of utility poles and railroad crossties.

Acquisition

The Company announced on June 3, 2013 that it had completed its acquisition of the Ultra Pure Chemicals subsidiaries of OM Group, Inc. (“OM Group”) located in the United States, England, Singapore and France. The purchase price was for $63.3 million in cash, including approximately $17.3 million of working capital. The subsidiaries sell high purity, wet process chemicals to the semiconductor industry. The purchase agreements pertaining to this acquisition are attached in Part 1, Item 6 of this report.

15

Sale of the Animal Health Business

On March 1, 2012, we sold certain assets of our animal health business to Bayer Healthcare, LLC for a purchase price of approximately $10.2 million, including $1.0 million held in escrow. The escrowed amount is being held pending final acceptance by the United States Environmental Protection Agency of certain studies being performed at its request on tetrachlorvinphos. We retained the real estate and building at our facility in Elwood, Kansas, but that facility has since been leased for two years to another manufacturer in the animal health business who took over operations there, including our employees. The lessee has an option to purchase the facility.

Results of Operations

Three and Nine Month Periods Ended April 30, 2013 compared with Three and Nine Month Periods Ended April 30, 2012

Segment Net Sales

Segment data is presented for our two reportable segments for the three and nine month periods ended April 30, 2013 and 2012. The segment data should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

	Three Months Ended April 30,				Nine Months Ended April 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012
	(Amounts in thousands)
Sales
Electronic chemicals	$	36,333	$	39,422	$	111,487	$	116,396
Wood treating chemicals		23,525		27,157		70,408		88,697
Total sales for reportable segments	$	59,858	$	66,579	$	181,895	$	205,093

Net Sales

Net sales for reportable segments decreased $6.7 million, or 10.1%, to $59.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 as compared to $66.6 million for the same period of the prior year. For the nine month periods, net sales for reportable segments decreased $23.2 million, or 11.3% to $181.9 million from $205.1 million. The decrease for the quarter was primarily due to a decrease in volume in both electronic chemicals and creosote sales. For the nine months, lesser creosote sales accounted for over 80% of the decline, primarily on lower volumes, and electronic chemicals accounted for the balance.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2013, the electronic chemicals segment had net sales of $36.3 million, a decrease of $3.1 million, or 7.8%, as compared to $39.4 million for the prior year period. For the nine month periods, net sales in the electronic chemicals segment decreased $4.9 million, or 4.2% to $111.5 million from $116.4 million. The third quarter sales for fiscal year 2013 were affected by weakened demand in North America early in the quarter. We expect demand for our electronic chemicals to strengthen in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013.

Net sales of wood treating chemicals decreased $3.6 million, or 13.4%, to $23.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 as compared to $27.2 million for the prior year period. For the nine month periods, net sales in the wood treating segment decreased $18.3 million, or 20.6%, to $70.4 million from $88.7 million. Creosote sales volume has been adversely impacted by customers who pre-treat railroad ties with boron solutions as a way of reducing the amount of creosote needed. Many customers have adopted that practice as a way of holding down costs.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased by $4.3 million, or 20.7%, to $16.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 from $20.6 million in the same quarter of the prior year. For the nine month periods, gross profit decreased $4.3 million, or 7.6%, to $52.1 million from $56.4 million. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 27.3% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 from 30.9% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. For the nine month period, gross profit as a percentage of sales increased from 27.5% to 28.6%. The decrease in aggregate gross profit for the quarter was primarily due to decreased creosote sales volume.

Other companies may include certain of the costs that we record in cost of sales as distribution expenses or selling, general and administrative expenses, and may include certain of the costs that we record in distribution expenses or selling, general and administrative expenses as a component of cost of sales, resulting in a lack of comparability between our gross profit and that reported by other companies.

16

Distribution Expenses

Distribution expenses were down to $6.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 from $7.4 million in the prior year period, a 13.7% decrease. Distribution expenses were approximately 10.7% and 11.1% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively. Distribution expenses for the nine month periods ending April 30, 2013 and 2012 were $19.4 million and $19.3 million, respectively, essentially flat with the prior year period. Distribution expenses as percent of revenue for the nine month periods ending April 30, 2013 and 2012 were 10.6% and 9.4% of net sales, respectively. For the three month period ended April 30, 2013 we recognized lower freight expenses of approximately $770,000 in our electronic chemicals business due to a decline in shipments on lower sales as compared to the prior year period. Although the nine month period ended April 30, 2013 included higher freight expenses compared to the prior year period, which were attributable to an increase in average freight costs and a decline in shipments using our lowest cost carrier, these increases were mostly offset from reductions in costs related to inventory adjustments and hazardous waste disposal. Distribution expense is heavily concentrated in our electronic chemicals business.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $741,000, or 11.7%, to $5.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 from $6.3 million in the same quarter of fiscal year 2012. Those expenses were 9.3% and 9.5% of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the nine month periods, those expenses decreased $277,000, or 1.5%, to $18.1 million from $18.4 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine month periods ending April 30, 2013 and 2012 were 9.9% and 9.0% of net sales, respectively. We incurred $1.4 million for acquisition transaction expenses, primarily for legal, due diligence, consulting and other professional services, in the first nine months of fiscal year 2013, and incurred $920,000 for waste disposal costs in the first nine months of fiscal year 2012. We recognized lower employee costs in the current year period primarily reflecting a decrease in bonus accrual of $870,000. For the three month period ended April 30, 2013, the reduction in selling, general and administrative expense mainly reflected lower employee bonus accrual.

Segment Income from Operations

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2013, operating income in the electronic chemicals segment was $3.0 million, a decrease of $926,000, or 23.7%, as compared to $3.9 million for the prior year period. For the nine month periods, operating income in the electronic chemicals segment increased $1.4 million, or 15.3%, to $10.5 million from $9.1 million. Operating income for the segment in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 was depressed by weakened demand in North America. Even though segment sales for the nine month period were also lower in fiscal year 2013 as compared to the prior year, operating income improved in the current year over the prior year period, because of the completion of our electronic chemicals segment integration in fiscal year 2012. For the three month period, the decrease in operating income was due mostly to lower sales which were offset in part by lower operating expenses primarily from a reduction in distribution expense.

In our wood treating chemicals segment, operating income decreased $1.4 million, or 35.2%, to $2.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 as compared to $3.9 million for the prior year period. For the nine month periods, operating income in the wood treating chemicals segment decreased $4.3 million or 34.4%, to $8.1 million from $12.4 million. The decrease in operating income was due primarily to lower creosote sales volume which decreased by approximately 15.1% for the quarterly period and 26.7% for the nine months’ period.

Other corporate expense primarily represents employee stock-based compensation expenses and those public entity expenses such as board compensation, audit expense, fees related to the listing of our stock, and expenses incurred to pursue potential acquisition opportunities. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2013, other corporate expense was $1.2 million, an increase of $201,000, or 20.8%, as compared to $968,000 for the prior year period. For the nine month periods, other corporate expense increased $1.2 million, or 43.9% to $4.0 million from $2.7 million. The increase in the nine month period was due to expenses of approximately $1.4 million, for acquisition expenses of the Ultra Pure Chemicals subsidiaries of OM Group. As we pursue our strategy, we expect to incur such expenses on a continuing basis in future periods, although we do not currently expect to be at the level experienced in the first nine months of fiscal year 2013. The amount and timing of such expenses, however, are difficult to predict with certainty as they vary with the availability of appropriate opportunities.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense was $388,000 and $504,000 in the third quarter of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively, and was $1.2 million and $1.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in each period was due to lower borrowings on our loan facilities in fiscal year 2013 as compared to the same period of the prior year, because we paid down a portion of the outstanding balance on loans under that facility during fiscal years 2013 and 2012.

The overall effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the three and nine month period ended April 30, 2013 of 26.2% and 34.1%, respectively, includes the impact of certain discrete tax items related to prior year credits and uncertain tax positions. Excluding the impact of those discrete items, the effective tax rate for continuing operations for the three months ended April 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately 33.8% and 38.3%, respectively, and 35.9% and 39.2% for the nine months of fiscal year 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Our Mexico subsidiary has undistributed earnings and it is our intention to continue to permanently reinvest the undistributed earnings of that subsidiary for fiscal years through July 31, 2011. Additionally, any undistributed earnings of the Italian subsidiary are considered to be permanently reinvested. Accordingly, no provision for United States income taxes has been provided with respect to those undistributed earnings. Upon repatriation of any earnings including the current year earnings in Mexico, we will be subject to both United States income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and potentially withholding taxes payable to the foreign country.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations reflected a loss before income taxes of $33,000 and income before income taxes of $182,000 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 and 2012, respectively, and a loss before income taxes of $187,000 and $434,000 for the first nine months of fiscal year 2013 and 2012, respectively. We discontinued our agricultural chemicals segment in fiscal year 2008. In connection with the dismantling of related equipment in Mexico, we incurred $33,000 and $105,000 for the three and nine month periods ended April 30, 2013 and $200,000 and $580,000 for the three and nine month periods ending April 30, 2012, respectively. The amounts incurred in fiscal year 2012 were primarily expenses related to an accident that occurred during dismantling.

We sold our animal health business in March 2012. For the nine month period ending April 30, 2013, we reported a loss related to that previous business of $82,000, before income tax. The nine-month period amount included $57,000 for a post closing inventory adjustment that was recognized as a loss on sale of the business in the first fiscal quarter. For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2012 we reported income, before income tax from results of operations of that business of $292,000 and $56,000, respectively. For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2012, income (loss) from discontinued operations before income taxes included the gain on sale of approximately $90,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was $9.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2013 as compared to $22.9 million for the comparable period in 2012. Cash flows from operating activities during the current period were favorably impacted by a $2.2 million reduction in trade accounts receivable primarily from lower sales in our electronic chemicals business segment as compared to the end of fiscal year 2012. Operating cash flows were unfavorably impacted by a $3.3 million increase in inventories primarily due to the timing of creosote purchases, a $3.3 million increase in Accounts receivable – other, which included $2.5 million resulting from payments of estimated income taxes from the current period, and a $1.8 million increase in other current and noncurrent assets primarily due to the annual renewal of the Company’s insurance.

Net cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 was $3.8 million as compared to net cash provided of $5.3 million for the prior year period. In fiscal year 2012, net cash provided by investing activities included $10.2 million proceeds from the sale of the animal health business. For both periods the investment for additions to property, plant and equipment of $3.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively was mainly in the electronic chemicals business, primarily for distribution and production equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $2.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal year 2013 as compared to $24.8 million in the prior year period. In the first nine months of fiscal year 2013, we made net payments of $2.0 million on our revolving loan. In the prior year period we made principal payments of $11.3 million on the term loan indebtedness to pay it off entirely, had net payments of $9.9 million on our revolving loan, and cleared the book overdraft outstanding at July 31, 2011 of $2.9 million. The book overdraft represented the amount in excess of the bank cash balance necessary to fund the checks that were paid but not yet cleared.

In the nine month periods ended April 30, 2013 and 2012, we paid dividends of $1.0 million and $908,000, respectively. Beginning with the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, we increased our quarterly dividend to $0.03 per share from $0.025 per share. It is our policy to pay dividends from available cash after taking into consideration our profitability, capital requirements, financial condition, growth, business opportunities and other factors which our board of directors may deem relevant.

Working Capital

We have a revolving line of credit under an amended and restated credit agreement. At April 30, 2013, we had $2.0 million outstanding under the revolving facility, and up to an additional $108.0 million of available borrowing capacity. We increased the maximum available borrowing capacity in April 2013 in anticipation of the acquisition of the Ultra Pure Chemicals subsidiaries of OM Group. See Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of the subsequent event pertaining to the closing of the Company’s acquisition of the Ultra Pure Chemicals subsidiaries of OM Group, and the increase in the Company’s borrowing under the revolving loan at May 31, 2013 to $67.0 million.

Management believes that our current credit facility, combined with cash flows from operations, will adequately provide for our working capital needs for current operations for the next twelve months.

Long Term Debt

To finance the acquisition of the electronic chemicals business in December 2007, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement and a note purchase agreement. The amended and restated credit agreement is now with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and with Bank of America, N.A. The note purchase agreement is now with The Prudential Insurance Company of America and Pruco Life Insurance Company.

Initially, the amended and restated credit agreement included a revolving loan facility and a term loan facility. We amended these facilities and the note purchase agreement several times, most recently in April and in May 2013 to increase the amount that may be borrowed under the revolving loan up to $110.0 million, to include an accordion feature that allows for an additional revolving loan increase of up to $25.0 million with approval from the Company’s lenders, and to extend the maturity date to April 30, 2018. The matrix for the calculation of interest payable on the revolving loan facility and the method for the calculation of the fixed charge coverage ratio were also revised.

Advances under the revolving loan mature April 30, 2018. They each bear interest at a varying rate of LIBOR plus a margin based on our funded debt to EBITDA ratio, as described below.

Ratio of Funded Debt to EBITDA	Margin
Equal to or greater than 2.5 to 1.0		2.25	%
Equal to or greater than 2.0 to 1.0, but less than 2.5 to 1.0		2.00	%
Equal to or greater than 1.5 to 1.0, but less than 2.0 to 1.0		1.75	%
Less than 1.5 to 1.0		1.50	%

Advances under the revolving loan bear interest at 1.70% as of April 30, 2013 (LIBOR plus 1.50%). At April 30, 2013, $2.0 million was outstanding on the revolving facility.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2012 we repaid the outstanding advances under the credit facility’s term loan, and in a November 2011 amendment, that aspect of the facility was deleted. Before the term loan facility was paid off in October 2011, and removed from the credit facility, the term facility required principal payments of $458,333 per month for the first 24 months, then beginning January 2010 principal payments became $666,667 per month for the balance of the term prior to maturity.

The note purchase agreement is for $20.0 million. Advances under the note purchase agreement mature on December 31, 2014, and bear interest at 7.43% per annum. Principal is payable at maturity. At April 30, 2013, $20.0 million was outstanding under the note purchase agreement.

Loans under the amended and restated credit agreement and the note purchase agreement are secured by our assets, including inventory, accounts receivable, equipment, intangible assets and real property. The credit facility and the note purchase agreement have restrictive covenants, including that we must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.5 to 1.0, a ratio of funded debt to EBITDA of no more than 3.0 to 1.0, and a current ratio of at least 1.5 to 1.0. On April 30, 2013, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants.

Frequency of Say-on-Pay

Consistent with the voting results at the annual meeting of shareholders held in December 2011, we determined to hold an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers annually until the next shareholder vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes is required under Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or until the Board of Directors otherwise determines that a different frequency for such votes is in our best interest and that of our shareholders.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, such as financing or unconsolidated variable interest entities, other than operating leases.

Disclosure Regarding Forward Looking Statements

We are including the following discussion to inform our existing and potential security holders generally of some of the risks and uncertainties that can affect us and to take advantage of the “safe harbor” protection for forward-looking statements that applicable federal securities law affords. From time to time, our management or persons acting on our behalf make forward-looking statements to inform existing and potential security holders about our company. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of our operations. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included or incorporated by reference in this report that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures, business strategy, competitive strengths, goals, growth of our business and operations, plans and references to future successes may be considered forward-looking statements. Also, when we use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “may,” “should,” “budget,” “goal,” “expect,” “probably” or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. Many risks and uncertainties may impact the matters addressed in these forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made and we will not update forward-looking statements unless the securities laws require us to do so.

Some of the key factors which could cause our future financial results and performance to vary from those expected include:

• the loss of primary customers;

• our ability to implement productivity improvements, cost reduction initiatives or facilities expansions;

• market developments affecting, and other changes in, the demand for our products and the entry of new competitors or the introduction of new competing products;

• availability or increases in the price of energy, our primary raw materials and active ingredients;

• the timing of planned capital expenditures;

• our ability to identify, develop or acquire, and market additional product lines and businesses necessary to implement our business strategy and our ability to finance such acquisitions and development;

• the condition of the capital markets generally, which will be affected by interest rates, foreign currency fluctuations and general economic conditions;

• cost and other effects of legal and administrative proceedings, settlements, investigations and claims, including environmental liabilities which may not be covered by indemnity or insurance;

• the effects of weather, earthquakes, other natural disasters and terrorist attacks;

• the ability to obtain registration and re-registration of our products under applicable law;

• the political and economic climate in the foreign or domestic jurisdictions in which we conduct business; and

• other United States or foreign regulatory or legislative developments which affect the demand for our products generally or increase the environmental compliance cost for our products or impose liabilities on the manufacturers and distributors of such products.

The information contained in this report, including the information set forth under the heading “Risk Factors”, identifies additional factors that could cause our results or performance to differ materially from those we express in our forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of these assumptions and, therefore, the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions, could themselves prove to be inaccurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements which are included in this report and the exhibits and other documents incorporated herein by reference, our inclusion of this information is not a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business, arising primarily from changes in interest rates and to a lesser extent foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Generally we do not utilize derivative financial instruments or hedging transactions to manage that risk. Our exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk is discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012. There has been no material change in that information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This term refers to the controls and procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period covered by this Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM  1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The information set forth in Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2012, except that the actions of the Persistent Organic Pollutants Review Committee of the Stockholm Convention may adversely affect our ability to manufacture or sell our penta products. In October 2012, the review committee recommended the listing of penta as a persistent organic pollutant (POP). The review committee comprises representatives from countries that have ratified the treaty known as the Stockholm Convention, which include Canada and Mexico but not the United States. The listing is the initial step in restricting or prohibiting uses of penta in countries that have approved the treaty. The action taken in October 2012 by the review committee is only the initial step in the process. The full Conference of the Parties of the Stockholm Convention must approve the listing, and if approved, a decision must be made on whether to merely restrict the uses of penta or prohibit use entirely. We disagree with the action of the review committee, and will incur substantial expenses for testing and other regulatory costs to respond to their action. Although the POP review is a multi-year process, no assurance can be given that the ultimate action of the Conference of the Parties will not have a material adverse affect on our financial condition and results of operation.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider recommendations for directors made by shareholders for next annual meeting of shareholders, if such recommendations are received in writing, addressed to the chair of the committee, Mr. John C. Hunter, in care of the Company, at 9555 W. Sam Houston Parkway S., Suite 600, Houston, Texas 77099 by July 2, 2013.
