Segment Information: Prior to January 1, 2000, the Company had two reportable segments: Activated Carbon and Engineered Systems. Each of these segments produced, designed and marketed products and services specifically developed for the purification, separation and concentration of liquids and gases and both sold to the same markets. The Company, as a result of a new strategy to transform the Company from a product to a service and solutions provider, has changed the structure of its internal organization in a manner that causes the composition of its reportable segments to change. As a result, the Company has four reportable segments: Activated Carbon, Service, Engineered Solutions and Consumer Health. These reportable segments are comprised of strategic business units which offer different products and services. The Company evaluates segment performance based primarily on economic profit (as defined by the Company) and operating income. The Activated Carbon segment manufactures granular activated carbon for use in applications to remove organic compounds from liquids, gases, water and air. The Service segment consists of reactivation of spent carbon and the leasing, monitoring and maintenance of mobile carbon adsorption equipment. The Engineered Solutions segment provides solutions to customer's air and water process problems through the design, fabrication and operation of systems that utilize a combination of the Company's enabling technologies: carbon adsorption, ultraviolet light and advanced ion exchange separation. The Consumer Health segment brings the Company's industrial purification technologies directly to the consumer in the form of products and services. The Company has restated the segment information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, to conform to the 2000 presentation.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of - ------ -------------------------------------------------- Operations and Financial Condition ---------------------------------- This discussion should be read in connection with the information contained in the Consolidated Financial Statements and Selected Notes to Financial Statements. Results of Operations - --------------------- Consolidated net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 decreased by $9.5 million or 12.9% while sales for the year-to-date period then ended were down by $23.5 million or 10.4% versus the similar 1999 periods. (An analysis of sales by segment can be found in Note 6 of Selected Notes to Financial Statements.) Net sales for the activated carbon segment decreased by $7.1 million or 18.4% and $13.7 million or 12.5% for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2000 respectively, versus the quarter and year-to- date periods ended September 30, 1999. Both the quarter and year-to-date results included a combination of net losses due to foreign currency translation associated with the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the Belgian franc and German deutche mark, partially offset by its weakening compared to the Japanese yen, and losses associated with exiting of unprofitable business areas. Sales to the service segment in the third quarter of 2000 decreased from the third quarter of 1999 by $1.4 million or 6.3% and decreased from the year-to- date period ended September 30, 1999 by $5.7 million or 7.8%. Reductions for both periods included losses associated with foreign currency translation in Europe, as stated previously, the non-repeat of large equipment sales that occurred in 1999 and the decision by some customers to extend the time between carbon reactivation. The year-to-date decline also was the result of the non- repeat of emergency related sales of temporary systems that occurred in 1999. Revenues associated with the engineered solutions segment declined by $0.3 million or 3.8% for the third quarter of 2000 versus the third quarter of 1999 and by $5.2 million or 18.7% for the year-to-date period ended September 30, 2000 versus the year-to-date period ended September 30, 1999. Both decreases were due to reduced volume of projects. Sales to the consumer health segment decreased by $0.7 million or 15.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 versus the similar 1999 quarter and increased by $1.1 million or 6.8% for the year-to-date period in 2000 compared to the year-to-date period in 1999. The decrease for the quarter was primarily due to decreased demand for charcoal and carbon cloth products. The year-to-date increase was the result of strong charcoal sales partially offset by the adverse effect of foreign currency translation. The total sales decrease for all segments due to the effect of currency translation was $1.9 million for the quarter and $5.8 million for the year-to-date period. Gross profit, before depreciation, as a percentage of net sales was 35.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2000. This compares to 34.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 1999. For the year-to-date period, gross profit, before depreciation, as a percentage of net sales was 36.8% in 2000 versus 35.4% in the 1999 period. This 1.4 percentage point improvement for both the quarter and year-to-date was primarily the result of the implementation of cost reduction programs at the Company's North American manufacturing facilities, cost reductions associated with the May shut-down of the European activated carbon producing facility and a minor effect from price increases. This result also reflects the exiting of unprofitable business areas. - 9 - The depreciation and amortization decreases of $.6 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2000 versus the quarter ended September 30, 1999 and $1.9 million for the year-to-date period ended September 30, 2000 compared to the year-to-date period ended September 30, 1999 were related to fourth quarter 1999 asset write-offs that were primarily included in the restructuring charge. Combined, selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses in the 2000 quarter period were below the 1999 quarter period by $2.4 million. This result was the net effect of cost reduction actions taken in the fourth quarter of 1999 and first half of 2000. These reductions were offset by costs associated with the establishment of the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Feluy, Belgium centers of excellence and increased costs related to promotions for the Company's Consumer products. This category's results for the year-to-date periods then ended reflected a $5.2 million reduction due to the aforementioned circumstances. Other income (expense) net increased $1.1 million for the comparable quarter of 2000 versus 1999 mainly due to foreign exchange losses related to the settlement of affiliate transactions at unfavorable exchange rates. The same reasoning applies to the year-to-date increase of $1.4 million. Interest expenses for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999 remained relatively constant. This was the net effect of a reduced debt level and increased interest rates on variable rate debt. The effective tax rate for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2000 was 36% versus similar effective tax rates for the comparable periods in 1999. Financial Condition - ------------------- Working Capital and Liquidity ----------------------------- Cash flows from operating activities were $21.6 million for the year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. The Company's concentrated efforts on reducing working capital were offset by the $12.8 million in payments related largely to the restructuring in the fourth quarter of 1999. Common stock dividends paid during the quarter ended September 30, 2000 represent $.05 per common share while the payment in the comparable 1999 period represented $.08 per common share. A stock repurchase program was approved by the Board of Directors on October 17, 2000 that will allow the Company to repurchase up to 500,000 shares of common stock. Total debt at September 30, 2000 was $72.1 million, a decrease, including exchange, of $8.6 million from December 31, 1999. The Company expects that cash from operating activities plus cash balances and available external financing will be sufficient to meet its future cash requirements. - 10 - The Company has a $113.4 million credit facility consisting of an $86.8 million five-year revolving credit facility expiring in May 2004 and a $26.6 million 364-day revolving credit facility renewed in May 2000, which expires in May 2001. Included in this facility is a letter of credit subfacility which may not exceed $30.0 million. At September 30, 2000 there was $3.6 million outstanding under the 364-day revolving credit agreement. Restructuring of Operations - --------------------------- The Company currently has two separate restructuring plans requiring continued cash outlays still in progress as of the period ended September 30, 2000. The latter of the two initiatives was undertaken during the fourth quarter of 1999 while the former commenced in the third quarter of 1998. The details of both restructuring plans are outlined below. During the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company adopted a strategy aimed at lowering costs to serve the activated carbon markets, investing to grow its service and solutions businesses and repositioning its proven technologies to bring more value to consumers. In order to achieve these goals, the Company has been reorganized as a globally integrated business with emphasis on becoming a service business. As part of this strategy, three activated carbon production lines have been shut down and dismantled. One of these lines was at the Feluy, Belgium location, another was at Neville Island, Pennsylvania and the third was at the Company's Big Sandy, Kentucky facility. Associated with cessation of activated carbon production activity at the Feluy plant, office activity has been moved from Brussels, Belgium to the plant. This has resulted in the formation of a center of excellence at Feluy for the growth of the service business. Operations at several other locations have been consolidated to gain global productivity and centralized processes to promote corporate-wide sharing of technical, operational and financial information. Included in this consolidation was the transfer of production and administration activities from Markham, Ontario, Canada and Lakeland, Florida to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to form a center of excellence for engineered solutions. All of the aforementioned strategy-related actions have been completed. With the exception of asset write- offs, these restructuring charges require cash outlays. The implementation was begun in December 1999 and is expected to be completed before the end of the fourth quarter of 2000 with minor contractual cash outlays being deferred through the second quarter of 2006. The number of employee separations from this restructuring is expected to be at least 150. These separations have occurred primarily at the locations impacted by the strategy and were spread between plant personnel and administrative positions. Additional hires will result in a net staff reduction of at least 130 positions. Separations through September 30, 2000 were 147. In the third quarter of 1998, the Company initiated a worldwide plan to reduce costs and realign the organizational structure. The implementation was begun in September 1998 and is essentially completed. Contractual cash outlays for employee severance were made in the third quarter of 2000 and others will continue during the balance of the year. With the exception of the asset write- offs, these restructuring charges required cash outlays. The number of planned employee separations from this restructuring was 131. All separations have been completed and were in line with the plan. - 11 - The restructuring reserve activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was: Balance Balance ($000) 1-1-00 Payments Exchange 9-30-00 -------- -------- -------- -------- 1999 Plan - --------- Employee severance and termination benefit costs $ 13,062 $(10,584) $ - $ 2,478 Other costs 4,882 (1,763) (459) 2,660 -------- -------- ------ -------- 17,944 (12,347) (459) 5,138 -------- -------- ------ -------- 1998 Plan - --------- Employee severance and termination benefit costs 1,091 (380) - 711 Other costs 209 (84) - 125 -------- -------- ------ -------- 1,300 (464) - 836 -------- -------- ------ -------- $ 19,244 $(12,811) $ (459) $ 5,974 ======== ======== ====== ======== Management believes the reserve balances are adequate. - 12 - Capital Expenditures and Investments - ------------------------------------ Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment totaled $6.7 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000 compared to expenditures of $7.2 million for the same period in 1999. The decrease was primarily due to non-recurring expenditures associated with the recently implemented business information system. Total capital expenditures are currently expected to be approximately $10.4 million for the year ending December 31, 2000. The purchase of business expenditures for the period ended September 30, 1999 represent the continuation of previously accrued cash expenditures for Advanced Separation Technologies' (a 1996 acquisition) project failures for projects completed before the acquisition. Year 2000 Information Management - -------------------------------- The Company encountered no unusual problems during the rollover to the Year 2000. To date, no Year 2000-related problems have been encountered with third parties. Until all processes and systems are run in production for the first time after the rollover and through the year, there is the potential for date- related problems. The Company plans to continue monitoring its processes and systems to ensure dates and date-related information continue to be processed correctly. New Accounting Pronouncements - ----------------------------- In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133", which amends certain provisions of SFAS No. 133 to clarify four areas causing difficulties in implementation. These new standards require recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value. They may result in additional volatility in both current period earnings and other comprehensive income as a result of recording recognized and unrecognized gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivative instruments. At adoption, this new standard requires a comprehensive review of all outstanding derivative instruments to determine whether or not their use meets the hedge accounting criteria. It is possible that there will be derivative instruments employed in our businesses that do not meet all of the designated hedge criteria and they will be reflected in income on a mark-to-market basis. We have appointed a team to implement SFAS No. 133 on a global basis for the Company. This team has been implementing a SFAS No. 133 compliant risk management policy, globally educating both financial and non-financial personnel, reviewing contracts for potential effect and addressing other SFAS No. 133 related issues. Based upon the strategies currently used by the Company and the level of activity related to forward exchange contracts and commodity-based derivative instruments in recent periods, the Company does not anticipate the effect of adoption to have a material impact on either financial position or results of operations. The effective date of SFAS No. 133 was amended by SFAS No. 137. The Company plans to adopt the standard effective January 1, 2001, as required. - 13 - PART II - OTHER INFORMATION --------------------------- Item 1.
