| Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation |
In the opinion of Phibro Animal Health Corporation (the “Company” or “PAHC”), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to state fairly its financial position at March 31, 2006 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. The financial results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The Company presents its financial statements on the basis of its fiscal year ending June 30. All references to 2007, 2006 and 2005 refer to the fiscal year ended June 30 of that year.
The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PAHC Holdings Corporation, which was formed in February 2005.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company consolidates the financial statements of Koffolk (1949) Ltd. (Israel) (“Koffolk”) and Planalquimica Industrial Ltda. (Brazil) (“Planalquimica”) on the basis of their March 31 fiscal year-ends to facilitate the timely inclusion of such entities in the Company’s consolidated financial reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements include Koffolk’s and Planalquimica’s financial position as of December 31, 2005 and their results of operations and cash flows for the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2005 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Additionally it should be noted the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards appropriate for interim financial statements. While the Company believes the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information herein not misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as found in the Company’s annual report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005.
| |
| Risks, Uncertainties and Liquidity |
The Company’s ability to fund its operating plan relies upon the continued availability of borrowing under the domestic senior credit facility. The Company believes that it will be able to comply with the terms of its covenants under the domestic senior credit facility based on its forecasted operating plan. In the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under this facility, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain waivers or amendments on favorable terms, if at all. The Company’s 2006 operating plan projects adequate liquidity throughout the year, with periods of reduced availability around the dates of the semi-annual interest payments due December 1 and June 1 related to PAHC’s 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 and PAHC’s 97/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. The Company is pursuing additional cost reduction activities, working capital improvement plans, and sales of non-strategic assets to provide additional liquidity. The Company also has availability under foreign credit lines that would be available as needed. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in any of the above-noted actions.
The use of antibiotics in medicated feed additives is a subject of legislative and regulatory interest. The issue of potential for increased bacterial resistance to certain antibiotics used in certain food-producing animals is the subject of discussions on a worldwide basis and, in certain instances, has led to government

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
restrictions on the use of antibiotics in food-producing animals. The sale of feed additives containing antibiotics is a material portion of the Company’s business. Should regulatory or other developments result in further restrictions on the sale of such products, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The testing, manufacturing, and marketing of certain products are subject to extensive regulation by numerous government authorities in the United States and other countries.
The Company has significant assets located outside of the United States, and a significant portion of the Company’s sales and earnings are attributable to operations conducted abroad.
The Company has assets located in Israel and a portion of its sales and earnings are attributable to operations conducted in Israel. The Company is affected by social, political and economic conditions affecting Israel, and any major hostilities involving Israel as well as the Middle East or curtailment of trade between Israel and its current trading partners, either as a result of hostilities or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company’s operations, properties and subsidiaries are subject to a wide variety of complex and stringent federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those governing the use, storage, handling, generation, treatment, emission, release, discharge and disposal of certain materials and wastes, the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater, the manufacture, sale and use of pesticides and the health and safety of employees. As such, the nature of the Company’s current and former operations and those of its subsidiaries exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims with respect to such matters.

| New Accounting Pronouncements |
The Company adopted the following new accounting pronouncements in 2006:
| |
| Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment to Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4” (“SFAS No. 151”). SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, previously stated “. . .under some circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges. . .”. SFAS No. 151 requires that those items be recognized as current period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal”. In addition, SFAS No. 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 30, 2005 and the provisions of this statement shall be applied prospectively. The adoption of SFAS No. 151 did not impact the Company’s financial statements. |
|
| Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29” (“SFAS No. 153”). SFAS No. 153 amends APB Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The provisions of this statement shall be applied prospectively. The adoption of SFAS No. 153 did not impact the Company’s financial statements. |

PHIBRO ANIMAL HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
The Company will adopt the following new accounting pronouncement in 2006:
| |
| FASB Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations” (“FIN No. 47”). FIN No. 47 clarifies that the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in FASB Statement No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (“ARO”)” refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement. Thus, the timing and/or method of settlement may be conditional on a future event. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional ARO if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The fair value of a liability for the conditional ARO should be recognized when incurred; generally upon acquisition, construction, or development and/or through the normal operation of the asset. Uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement of a conditional ARO should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. FIN No. 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an ARO. FIN No. 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The Company anticipates that the adoption of FIN No. 47 will not result in a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. |

majority of the employees of the Belgium Plant and the corresponding responsibility for statutory severance obligations; (iii) GSK agreed to be responsible for cleaning-up, by demolition or otherwise, certain buildings not to be used by it, but for PAH Belgium to reimburse GSK up to a maximum of EUR 700 ($849) for suchcleaning-up costs; (iv) in recognition of the benefits to PAHC from the proposed transaction, PAH Belgium agreed to pay to GSK EUR 1,500 ($1,821) within six months from the closing date, EUR 1,500 ($1,821) within eighteen months from the closing date, EUR 1,500 ($1,821) within thirty months from the closing date, and EUR 500 ($607) within forty-two months from the closing date; (v) PAH Belgium sold certain excess land for its own account; (vi) PAH Belgium was responsible for certain plant closure costs and legally required severance indemnities in connection with workforce reductions; and (vii) PAH Belgium retained certain equipment at the Belgium Plant, and has transferred or will transfer such equipment, together with other assets and rights related to the production of virginiamycin, to Phibro Saude Animal Internacional Ltda. (“PAH Brazil”) which owns a facility in Guarulhos, Brazil or in connection with alternative production arrangements.
The Dutch Notes (as defined below) and related guarantees were collateralized by a mortgage on the Belgium Plant which was released in connection with the sale of the Belgium Plant to GSK.
As a result of the Belgium Plant Transactions, the Company depreciated the Belgium Plant to its estimated salvage value, recorded expense of early-retirement and severance programs for those employees not transferred to GSK, other transaction-related expenses, a curtailment gain on the Belgium pension plan and a gain on the sales of the Belgium Plant and excess land. Other transaction-related expenses were primarily related to employee retention agreements, plant dismantling and decommissioning, plant shutdown, and site demolition costs payable to GSK.
The following table includes the amounts of these charges and gains.

At March 31, 2006, PAHC had no amounts borrowed under its domestic senior credit facility, and had $17,500 of borrowings available under the working capital facility that is provided under its domestic senior credit facility.
On October 28, 2005, PAHC amended its domestic senior credit facility in connection with, among other things, yearly determination of certain financial covenants to: (i) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude charges and expenses related to the sale of the Belgium Plant in an aggregate amount not to exceed $33,200 for purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (ii) establish the Minimum Domestic EBITDA for the 12 month periods ended July 31, 2005 through June 30, 2006 at $17,500 for purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (iii) establish the Consolidated Minimum EBITDA for the 12 month periods ended July 31, 2005 through June 30, 2006 at $32,000 for purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; and (iv) amend the maximum aggregate amount of borrowing available under the working capital and letter of credit facilities from $32,500 to $35,000. The amount of aggregate borrowings available under the working capital facility remained unchanged at $17,500.
As of March 31, 2006, PAHC was in compliance with the financial covenants of its domestic senior credit facility, as amended. The domestic senior credit facility requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain levels of trailing consolidated and domestic EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) calculated on a monthly basis, and an acceleration clause should an event of default (as defined in the agreement) occur. In addition, there are certain restrictions on additional borrowings, additional liens on PAHC’s assets, guarantees, dividend payments, redemption or purchase of PAHC’s stock, sale of subsidiaries’ stock, disposition of assets, investments, and mergers and acquisitions.

On or about April 17, 1997, C.P. Chemicals, Inc., a subsidiary (“CP”), and PAHC were served with a complaint filed by Chevron U.S.A. Inc. (“Chevron”) in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging that the operations of CP at its Sewaren plant affected adjoining property owned by Chevron and alleging that PAHC, as the parent of CP, is also responsible to Chevron. In July 2002, a phased settlement agreement was reached and a Consent Order entered by the Court. The Consent Order provided
15
PHIBRO ANIMAL HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
for a period of due diligence investigation of the property owned by Chevron and upon completion of the review of the results of the investigation, a decision was to be made whether to opt out of the settlement or proceed. Negotiations with Chevron regarding its allocation of responsibility and associated costs under the Consent Order reached an impasse and it became necessary for PAHC and another defendant, Vulcan Materials Company (“Vulcan”), to opt out of the settlement on April 21, 2005. Since then, settlement negotiations have continued and the parties are in the process of memorializing the terms of a revised settlement. The Court will reopen the case if a revised settlement is not finalized.
As proposed, CP, PAHC and Vulcan, through an acquisition entity known as NFE, LLC (“NFE”), would acquire a portion of the property. NFE will then proceed with the remediation of the acquired property. Vulcan will pay a share of the remediation costs. Vulcan’s share has not yet been determined. Another defendant will also make a contribution toward the remediation costs to be incurred by NFE in an amount that has not yet been determined but which is estimated to be approximately $175. Chevron will retain title to a portion of the property and will also retain responsibility for further investigation and remediation of certain identified environmental conditions on the property. In addition, Chevron will also be required to complete any necessary remediation in a certain area of the property. While the costs and liabilities cannot be estimated with any degree of certainty at this time, the Company believes that insurance recoveries will be available to offset most of those costs.
The Company’s subsidiary, Phibro-Tech, Inc. (“Phibro-Tech”), was named in 1993 as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) in connection with an action commenced under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”), involving a former third-party fertilizer manufacturing site in Jericho, South Carolina. An agreement has been reached under which such subsidiary agreed to contribute up to $900 of the first series of contributions of all remaining responsible PRPs (of which $691 has been paid as of March 31, 2006) and up to $1,200 of additional contingent contributions, the payment of which is considered to be remote, and otherwise subject to the PRPs’ right to dispute additional costs. Some recovery from insurance and other sources is expected.
The Company and its subsidiaries are party to a number of claims and lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business including product liabilities and governmental regulation. Certain of these actions seek damages in various amounts. In most cases, such claims are covered by insurance. The Company believes that none of the claims or pending lawsuits, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations.
| |
| Environmental Remediation |
The Company’s operations, properties and subsidiaries are subject to a wide variety of complex and stringent federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those governing the use, storage, handling, generation, treatment, emission, release, discharge and disposal of certain materials and wastes, the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater, the manufacture, sale and use of pesticides and the health and safety of employees. As such, the nature of the Company’s current and former operations and those of its subsidiaries exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims with respect to such matters. Under certain circumstances, the Company or any of its subsidiaries might be required to curtail operations until a particular problem is remedied. Known costs and expenses under environmental laws incidental to ongoing operations are generally included within operating results. Potential costs and expenses may also be incurred in connection with the repair or upgrade of facilities to meet existing or new requirements under environmental laws or to investigate or remediate potential or actual contamination and from time to time the Company establishes reserves for such contemplated investigation and remediation costs. In many instances, the ultimate costs under environmental laws and the time period during which such costs are likely to be incurred are difficult to predict.
16
PHIBRO ANIMAL HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
The Company’s subsidiaries have, from time to time, implemented procedures at their facilities designed to respond to obligations to comply with environmental laws. The Company believes that its operations are currently in material compliance with such environmental laws, although at various sites its subsidiaries are engaged in continuing investigation, remediation and/or monitoring efforts to address contamination associated with their historic operations.
Israel’s Ministry of the Environment has imposed revised business license terms on Koffolk’s Ramat Hovav manufacturing facilities. The Company has taken steps to contest the revised terms and can not currently estimate the costs or the timing of the final resolution of the issue.
The nature of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ current and former operations exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims with respect to environmental matters and the Company cannot assure it will not incur material costs and liabilities in connection with such claims. Based upon its experience to date, the Company believes that the future cost of compliance with existing environmental laws, and liability for known environmental claims pursuant to such environmental laws, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.
Based upon information available, the Company estimates the cost of litigation proceedings described above and the cost of further investigation and remediation of identified soil and groundwater problems at operating sites, closed sites and third-party sites, and closure costs for closed sites to be approximately $2,494 at March 31, 2006, which is included in current and long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet (approximately $2,743 at June 30, 2005).
The Company’s reportable segments are Animal Health and Nutrition, Industrial Chemicals and Distribution. Reportable segments have been determined primarily on the basis of the nature of products and services and certain similar operating units have been aggregated. The Company’s Animal Health and Nutrition segment manufactures and markets more than 500 formulations and concentrations of medicated feed additives and nutritional feed additives including antibiotics, antibacterials, anticoccidials, anthelmintics, trace minerals, vitamins, vitamin premixes and other animal health and nutrition products. The Industrial Chemicals segment manufactures and markets a number of chemicals for use in the pressure-treated wood, chemical catalyst, semiconductor, automotive and aerospace industries, and copper-based fungicides. The Distribution segment markets and distributes a variety of industrial, specialty and fine organic chemicals and intermediates produced primarily by third parties.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
This information should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in this Report. Phibro Animal Health Corporation (the “Company” or “PAHC”) presents its annual consolidated financial statements on the basis of its fiscal year ending June 30.
General
The Company is a leading diversified global manufacturer and marketer of a broad range of animal health and nutrition products, specifically medicated feed additives (MFAs) and nutritional feed additives (NFAs), which are sold throughout the world predominantly to the poultry, swine and cattle markets. MFAs are used preventatively and therapeutically in animal feed to produce healthy livestock. The Company believes it is the third largest manufacturer and marketer of MFAs in the world, and that certain of its MFA products have leading positions in the marketplace. The Company is also a specialty chemicals manufacturer and marketer, serving primarily the United States pressure-treated wood and chemical industries. The Company has several proprietary products, and many of the Company’s products provide critical performance attributes to customers’ products, while representing a relatively small percentage of total end-product cost.

| Belgium Plant Transactions |
On November 30, 2005, Phibro Animal Health SA (“PAH Belgium”) sold to GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals (“GSK”) substantially all of PAH Belgium’s facilities in Rixensart, Belgium (the “Belgium Plant”). The sale (the “Belgium Plant Transactions”) included the following elements (U.S. dollar amounts at the March 31, 2006 exchange rate except where otherwise indicated): (i) the transfer of substantially all of the land and buildings and certain equipment of PAH Belgium at the Belgium Plant, as well as the industrial activities and intellectual property relating to certain solvent technology of PAH Belgium for a purchase price of EUR 6.2 million ($7.3 million at the November 30, 2005 exchange rate), paid at closing; (ii) the transfer to GSK of a majority of the employees of the Belgium Plant and the corresponding responsibility for statutory severance obligations; (iii) GSK agreed to be responsible for cleaning-up, by demolition or otherwise, certain buildings not to be used by it, but for PAH Belgium to reimburse GSK up to a maximum of EUR 0.7 million ($0.8 million) for suchcleaning-up costs; (iv) in recognition of the benefits to PAHC from the proposed transaction, PAH Belgium agreed to pay to GSK EUR 1.5 million ($1.8 million) within six months from the closing date, EUR 1.5 million ($1.8 million) within eighteen months from the closing date, EUR 1.5 million ($1.8 million) within thirty months from the closing date, and EUR 0.5 million ($0.6 million) withinforty-two months from the closing date; (v) PAH Belgium sold certain excess land for its own account; (vi) PAH Belgium was responsible for certain plant closure costs and legally required severance indemnities in connection with workforce reductions; and (vii) PAH Belgium retained certain equipment at the Belgium Plant, and has transferred or will transfer such equipment, together with other assets and rights related to the production of virginiamycin, to Phibro Saude Animal Internacional Ltda. (“PAH Brazil”) which owns a facility in Guarulhos, Brazil or in connection with alternative production arrangements.
The Dutch Notes (as defined below) and related guarantees were collateralized by a mortgage on the Belgium Plant which was released in connection with the sale of the Belgium Plant to GSK.
As a result of the Belgium Plant Transactions, the Company depreciated the Belgium Plant to its estimated salvage value, recorded expense of early-retirement and severance programs for those employees not transferred to GSK, other transaction-related expenses, a curtailment gain on the Belgium pension plan and a gain on the sales of the Belgium Plant and excess land. Other transaction-related expenses were primarily related to employee retention agreements, plant dismantling and decommissioning, plant shutdown, and site demolition costs payable to GSK.

The following table includes the amounts (in thousands) of these charges and gains.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
All costs and gains of the Belgium Plant Transactions are included in cost of goods sold on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the periods as described in the table above.
As of March 31, 2006, accrued expenses and other long term liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet included $6.9 million payable to GSK and $10.3 million payable for employee termination and other transaction-related expenses.
The Company expects to record in future periods an estimated additional $0.8 million of other transaction-related expenses, primarily for plant dismantling and decommissioning, primarily during the remainder of 2006.
In anticipation of transferring production of virginiamycin from the Belgium Plant to an alternative production location, the Company increased inventory levels of virginiamycin until the Belgium Plant sale in November 2005 to ensure adequate supplies during the transfer period. Virginiamycin inventories were approximately $33.4 million at March 31, 2006 and $38.8 million at June 30, 2005.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s ability to fund its operating plan depends upon the continued availability of borrowing under its domestic senior credit facility. The Company believes that it will be able to comply with the terms of its covenants under the domestic senior credit facility based on its forecasted operating plan. In the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under this facility, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain waivers or amendments on favorable terms, if at all. The Company’s 2006 operating plan projects adequate liquidity throughout the year, with periods of reduced availability around the dates of the semi-annual interest payments due December 1 and June 1 related to PAHC’s 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 and PAHC’s 97/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. The Company is pursuing additional cost reduction activities, working capital improvement plans, and sales of non-strategic assets to provide additional liquidity. The Company also has availability under foreign credit lines that would be available as needed. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in any of the above-noted actions.
The use of antibiotics in medicated feed additives is a subject of legislative and regulatory interest. The issue of potential for increased bacterial resistance to certain antibiotics used in certain food-producing animals is the subject of discussions on a worldwide basis and, in certain instances, has led to government
29
restrictions on the use of antibiotics in food-producing animals. The sale of feed additives containing antibiotics is a material portion of the Company’s business. Should regulatory or other developments result in further restrictions on the sale of such products, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The testing, manufacturing, and marketing of certain of the Company’s products are subject to extensive regulation by numerous government authorities in the United States and other countries.
The Company has significant assets located outside of the United States, and a significant portion of the Company’s sales and earnings are attributable to operations conducted abroad.
The Company has assets located in Israel and a portion of its sales and earnings are attributable to operations conducted in Israel. The Company is affected by social, political and economic conditions affecting Israel, and any major hostilities involving Israel as well as the Middle East or curtailment of trade between Israel and its current trading partners, either as a result of hostilities or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company’s operations, properties and subsidiaries are subject to a wide variety of complex and stringent federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those governing the use, storage, handling, generation, treatment, emission, release, discharge and disposal of certain materials and wastes, the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater, the manufacture, sale and use of pesticides and the health and safety of employees. As such, the nature of the Company’s current and former operations and those of its subsidiaries exposes the Company and its subsidiaries to the risk of claims with respect to such matters.

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005
Net Salesof $100.9 million increased $10.7 million, or 12%. Animal Health and Nutrition sales of $79.7 million grew $11.3 million, or 17%, due to volume increases and also higher average selling prices for NFAs related to cost increases. Specialty Chemical Group (comprised of the Industrial Chemicals and Distribution segments) sales of $21.2 million decreased $0.6 million due to lower unit volumes offset in part by higher average selling prices.
Gross Profitof $24.5 million increased $5.7 million, to 24.2% of net sales. The Belgium Plant Transactions costs for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 were $1.0 million and $4.4 million, respectively. Excluding these charges, Animal Health and Nutrition gross profit improved due to increased unit volume, favorable product mix and higher average selling prices offset in part by higher unit costs. The Specialty Chemical Group’s gross profit decreased from last year due to lower sales of wood treatment
30
products and lower production levels in the Industrial Chemicals segment offset in part by increased sales of higher margin products in the Distribution segment.
Selling, General and Administrative Expensesof $17.5 million increased $0.5 million. Expenses increased over the prior year due to higher salary costs offset in part by reduced registration trials and reduced advertising and promotional expenditures.
Operating Incomeof $6.9 million increased $5.2 million from last year. Belgium Plant Transaction costs were $1.0 million and $4.4 million, respectively, generating $3.4 million of the income increase. Operating income, excluding the Belgium Plant Transactions, increased by $3.1 million in Animal Health and Nutrition primarily due to improved margins from higher unit volumes. Specialty Chemical Group operating income decreased $0.9 million due to lower sales of wood treatment products and lower production levels in the Industrial Chemicals segment offset in part by higher margins in the Distribution segment. Corporate expenses increased by $0.4 million which partially offset the operating improvements.
Interest Expense, Netof $6.7 million was slightly below the prior year due to a lower net effective interest rate as overall debt levels approximated the prior year.
Other (Income) Expense, Netprincipally reflects foreign currency transaction net (gains) losses related to short-term inter-company balances and foreign currency translation (gains) losses.
Income Taxesof $1.6 million were recorded on a consolidated pre-tax income of $0.2 million. The tax rate reflects income tax provisions in profitable foreign jurisdictions and for state income taxes. A provision for U.S. federal income taxes has not been recorded due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. The Company has recorded valuation allowances related to substantially all deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate the likelihood of recoverability of these deferred tax assets based upon actual and expected operating performance.
Comparison of Nine Months Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005
Net Salesof $293.2 million increased $24.0 million, or 9%. Animal Health and Nutrition sales of $233.5 million grew $29.8 million, or 15%, due to volume increases and also higher average selling prices for NFAs related to cost increases.

Gross Profitof $63.9 million increased $9.4 million, to 21.8% of net sales. The Belgium Plant Transactions costs for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 were $10.2 million and $13.9 million, respectively. Excluding these charges, Animal Health and Nutrition gross profit improved due to increased unit volume, favorable product mix and higher average selling prices offset in part by higher unit costs. The Specialty Chemical Group’s gross profit decreased over last year due to lower sales of wood treatment products in the Industrial Chemicals segment offset in part by increased sales of higher margin products in the Distribution segment.
Selling, General and Administrative Expensesof $49.4 million decreased $0.4 million. Expenses decreased from the prior year due to reduced advertising and promotional expenditures and registration trials offset in part by higher salary costs.

Belgium Plant Transaction costs were $10.2 million and $13.9 million, respectively , generating $3.7 million of the income increase. Operating income, excluding the Belgium Plant Transactions, increased by $7.5 million in Animal Health and Nutrition primarily due to improved margins from higher unit volumes and lower selling, general and administrative expenses. Specialty Chemical Group operating income decreased $0.5 million due to lower sales of wood treatment products in the Industrial Chemicals segment offset in part by sales of higher margin products in the Distribution segment. Corporate expenses increased by $0.9 million which partially offset the operating improvements.
31
Interest Expense, Netof $18.9 million increased $0.3 million from last year, primarily due to lower short-term borrowing levels offset in part by higher borrowing levels associated with the issuance of additional Senior Secured Notes and increased amortization of deferred financing costs. Interest expense was also reduced by the reversal of $0.6 million of accrued interest related to an excise tax assessment resolved in the Company’s favor in the period.

Net Salesof $79.7 million increased $11.3 million, or 17%. MFA net sales increased by $5.1 million. Revenues were higher for all product types, including antibiotics, antibacterials and anticoccidials. The increase in MFA revenues was primarily due to higher unit volumes. NFA net sales increased by $6.3 million
32
principally due to overall higher average selling prices (which offset cost increases) and improved sales of higher margin products.
Operating Incomeof $9.7 million increased $6.5 million from last year. Operating income, excluding the Belgium Plant Transactions costs, increased $3.1 million due to higher unit volumes and average selling prices which were partially offset by higher unit costs.

Industrial Chemicalsnet sales of $10.3 million decreased $3.1 million, or 24%. Sales of copper-related products to the wood treatment markets were below last year, but were partially offset by higher sales of other specialty copper products arising from capacity expansion. Revenues for contract manufacturing decreased due to lower unit volumes offset in part by higher average selling prices. Operating income of break-even decreased by $1.4 million from last year due to lower unit volumes. The Company has reduced the work force and operating levels at our Sumter, South Carolina facility to mitigate these sales volume declines.
Distributionnet sales of $10.9 million increased $2.5 million, or 29%. Higher domestic unit volumes and higher average selling prices were offset in part by lower sales volumes in Europe. Distribution operating income of $1.7 million increased $0.5 million over the prior year as increased sales of higher margin products offset unit volume declines.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities. Cash provided (used) by operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $8.1 million and ($7.5) million, respectively. Cash provided by operations increased due to improved operating performance and working capital improvements, primarily in the reduction of Animal Health and Nutrition inventories. These improvements were offset in part by payments related to the Belgium Plant Transactions. The Company increased its levels of virginiamycin inventory until the Belgium Plant sale in November 2005 to support the transition of production to PAH Brazil. Inventory levels are expected to decline during the remainder of the year.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Investing Activities. Net cash provided (used) by investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was ($1.4) million and ($4.0) million, respectively. Capital expenditures of $11.2 million and $5.1 million for 2006 and 2005, respectively, were for expansion of production capacity in Brazil in 2006, for maintaining the Company’s existing asset base and for environmental, health and safety projects. The Belgium Plant Transactions provided funds of $8.0 million during 2006. Sales of assets provided funds of $1.9 million and $1.4 million in 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Net Cash Provided (Used) by Financing Activities. Net cash provided (used) by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was ($10.1) million and $13.2 million, respectively. The decrease in short-term debt is due to the reduction of the senior credit facility. Payments of long-term debt reflect the repayments of Koffolk borrowings. Proceeds from long-term debt reflect the borrowings of Koffolk and the issuance of additional senior secured indebtedness in December 2004.
Working Capital and Capital Expenditures. Working capital as of March 31, 2006 was $81.5 million compared to $78.8 million at June 30, 2005, an increase of $2.7 million. The increase in working capital primarily was due to reduced short-term debt levels resulting from the proceeds of the Belgium Plant Transactions.
The Company anticipates spending approximately $15.0 million for capital expenditures in 2006, primarily for expansion of virginiamycin production capacity at the Brazil facility and to cover the Company’s asset replacement needs, to improve processes, and for environmental and regulatory compliance, subject to the availability of funds.
Liquidity. At March 31, 2006, PAHC had no amounts borrowed under its domestic senior credit facility and PAHC had $17.5 million of borrowings available under the working capital facility that is provided under its domestic senior credit facility. At March 31, 2006 PAHC had $15.9 million of letters of credit outstanding under its domestic senior credit facility. In addition, a foreign subsidiary also had availability totaling $9.1 million under its loan agreements.
On October 28, 2005, PAHC amended its domestic senior credit facility in connection with, among other things, yearly determination of certain financial covenants to: (i) amend the EBITDA definition to exclude
34
charges and expenses related to the sale of the Belgium Plant in an aggregate amount not to exceed $33.2 million for purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (ii) establish the Minimum Domestic EBITDA for the 12 month periods ended July 31, 2005 through June 30, 2006 at $17.5 million for purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; (iii) establish the Consolidated Minimum EBITDA for the twelve month periods ended July 31, 2005 through June 30, 2006 at $32.0 million for purposes of calculating a certain financial covenant; and (iv) amend the maximum aggregate amount of borrowing available under the working capital and letter of credit facilities from $32.5 million to $35.0 million. The amount of aggregate borrowings available under the working capital facility remained unchanged at $17.5 million.
As of March 31, 2006, PAHC was in compliance with the financial covenants of its domestic senior credit facility, as amended. The domestic senior credit facility requires, among other things, the maintenance of certain levels of trailing consolidated and domestic EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) calculated on a monthly basis, and an acceleration clause should an event of default (as defined in the agreement) occur. In addition, there are certain restrictions on additional borrowings, additional liens on PAHC’s assets, guarantees, dividend payments, redemption or purchase of PAHC’s stock, sale of subsidiaries’ stock, disposition of assets, investments, and mergers and acquisitions.
The domestic senior credit facility contains a lock-box requirement and a material adverse change clause should an event of default (as defined in the agreement) occur. Accordingly, the amounts outstanding have been classified as short-term and are included in loans payable to banks in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
The Company’s ability to fund its operating plan depends upon the continued availability of borrowing under its domestic senior credit facility. The Company believes that it will be able to comply with the terms of its covenants under the domestic senior credit facility based on its forecasted operating plan. In the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under this facility, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain waivers or amendments on favorable terms, if at all. The Company’s 2006 operating plan projects adequate liquidity throughout the year, with periods of reduced availability around the dates of the semi-annual interest payments due December 1 and June 1 related to PAHC’s 13% Senior Secured Notes due 2007 and PAHC’s 97/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. The Company is pursuing additional cost reduction activities, working capital improvement plans, and sales of non-strategic assets to provide additional liquidity. The Company also has availability under foreign credit lines that would be available as needed. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in any of the above-noted actions.
The Company’s contractual obligations at March 31, 2006 become due as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Within 1 Year | | | Over 1 to 3 Years | | | Over 3 to 5 Years | | | Over 5 Years | | | Total | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
A significant portion of the Company’s debt becomes due in December 2007 and June 2008. The Company anticipates that it will refinance these obligations prior to maturity.

Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.
Not all of these significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. However, management of the Company is required to make certain estimates and assumptions during the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These estimates and assumptions impact the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they are determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accounting policies and related risk described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates. As of March 31, 2006 there have been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies contained therein.
New Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has released new and revised standards. These standards will be adopted by the Company during 2006 and 2007 and are discussed in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
In the normal course of operations, the Company is exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and commodity prices. As a result, future earnings, cash flows and fair values of assets and liabilities are subject to uncertainty. The Company uses, from time to time, foreign currency forward contracts as a means of hedging exposure to foreign currency risks. The Company also utilizes, on a limited basis, certain commodity derivatives, primarily on copper used in its manufacturing processes, to hedge the cost of its anticipated purchase requirements. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments for trading purposes. The Company does not hedge its exposure to market risks in a manner that completely eliminates the effects of changing market conditions on earnings, cash flows and fair values. The Company monitors the financial stability and credit standing of its major counterparties.
For financial market risks related to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices, reference is made to Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk, in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 and to Notes 2 and 19 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included therein.
Certain Factors Affecting Future Operating Results
| |
| Forward-Looking Statements |
This Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “project,” “intend,” or similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements regarding our expected business outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, our business strategy and means to implement the strategy, our objectives, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, the likelihood of our success in expanding our business, financing plans, budgets, working capital needs and sources of liquidity.
Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available
36
information. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the expansion of product offerings geographically or through new applications, the timing and cost of planned capital expenditures, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Forward-looking statements also involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results that differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
| | |
| • | our substantial leverage and potential inability to service our debt |
|
| • | our dependence on distributions from our subsidiaries |
|
| • | risks associated with our international operations and significant foreign assets |
|
| • | our dependence on our Israeli operations |
|
| • | competition in each of our markets |
|
| • | potential environmental liability |
|
| • | potential legislation affecting the use of medicated feed additives |
|
| • | extensive regulation by numerous government authorities in the United States and other countries |
|
| • | our reliance on the continued operation and sufficiency of our manufacturing facilities, including the transition of virginiamycin production to our Brazil facility |
|
| • | our reliance upon unpatented trade secrets |
|
| • | the risks of legal proceedings and general litigation expenses |
|
| • | potential operating hazards and uninsured risks |
|
| • | the risk of work stoppages |
|
| • | our dependence on key personnel |
See also the discussion under “Risks, Uncertainties and Liquidity” in Note 1 of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report.
In addition, the issue of the potential for increased bacterial resistance to certain antibiotics used in certain food producing animals is the subject of discussions on a worldwide basis and, in certain instances, has led to government restrictions on the use of antibiotics in these food producing animals. The sale of feed additives containing antibiotics is a material portion of our business. Should regulatory or other developments result in further restrictions on the sale of such products, it could have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
We believe the forward-looking statements in this Report are reasonable; however, no undue reliance should be placed on any forward-looking statements, as they are based on current expectations. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
Information regarding quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk is set forth in Part I Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
| |
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
(a) Based upon an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officers and our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, they have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this
37
Report, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are effective.
(b) As of the end of the period covered by this Report there have been no changes in our internal controls that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
It should be noted that any system of internal controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential conditions, regardless of how remote.
