         Cytec Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results

                    Full Year 2007 Outlook Provided


    WEST PATERSON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 1, 2007--Cytec
Industries Inc. (NYSE:CYT) announced today net earnings for the fourth
quarter of 2006 of $83.4 million or $1.70 per diluted share on net
sales of $794 million. Included in the quarter are several special
items as outlined further in this release. Excluding these special
items, net earnings were $37.4 million or $0.76 per diluted share.

    Net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2005 were $18.4 million, or
$0.39 per diluted share, on net sales of $788 million. Included in the
quarter were several special items as outlined further in this
release. Excluding these special items, net earnings were $26.4
million or $0.56 per diluted share.

    David Lilley, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
said, "Overall, we had a solid quarter with our diluted earnings per
share up 36% after excluding the special items as discussed further
on. The Engineered Materials segment selling volumes were
significantly higher than the prior year particularly in the large
commercial aircraft sector. Similar to the prior quarters of 2006, our
specialty chemicals businesses experienced higher raw material costs
and we continue to raise prices to compensate. Overall for Specialty
Chemicals, taking into account the water treatment divestiture,
volumes were flat with increases in Europe and Asia offset by lower
volumes in North America. Building Block Chemicals selling volumes had
good growth and they benefited from lower raw material costs for
propylene."

    Cytec Performance Chemicals Sales decreased 20% to $176 million;
Operating Earnings decreased to $11.6 million

    Mr. Lilley continued, "In Cytec Performance Chemicals, the effect
of the divestiture of the water treatment chemicals product line
decreased sales by 20%, other selling volumes were flat, selling
prices decreased 2% and the impact of exchange rate changes increased
sales by 2%. Mining chemical sales were down due to order pattern and
polymer additives were impacted by lower sales of older product
technologies. These were offset by higher selling volumes in other
product lines principally due to new business.

    "Operating earnings of $11.6 million were down compared to the
$17.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The decrease is primarily
due to the impact of the divestiture of the water treatment chemicals
product line, lower selling prices, higher raw material costs, a
benefit plan curtailment charge of $0.3 million discussed under
special items and $0.8 million related to the application of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment"
(SFAS 123R)."

    Cytec Surface Specialties Sales increased 7% to $375 million;
Operating Earnings increased to $17.6 million

    "In Cytec Surface Specialties, overall selling volumes were flat,
selling prices increased by 2% and the impact of exchange rate changes
increased sales by 5%. We benefited from higher selling volumes in
Europe and Asia/Pacific but this was offset by lower selling volumes
in North America primarily reflecting weaker customer demand.

    "Operating earnings of $17.6 million were up compared to the $13.9
million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The benefits of increased
selling prices, improved manufacturing performance plus the previous
restructuring activities were partially offset by higher raw material
costs. Also impacting the quarter was expense of $0.7 million related
to the application of SFAS 123R."

    Cytec Engineered Materials Sales increased 17% to $160 million;
Operating Earnings increased to $27.2 million

    "In Cytec Engineered Materials, selling volumes increased by 13%,
selling prices increased by 3% and the impact of exchange rate changes
on sales increased sales by 1%. The selling volume increase was
primarily in the large commercial aircraft and business jet sectors.

    "Operating earnings of $27.2 million were up compared to the $26.7
million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The favorable impact of the
higher selling volumes and selling prices was mostly offset by
increased raw material costs, higher manufacturing period costs as a
result of the increased production volumes, planned increases in
selling and technical and research expenses and a benefit plan
curtailment charge of $2.3 million discussed further under special
items. Also included in operating earnings was expense of $0.6 million
related to the application of SFAS 123R."

    Building Block Chemicals Sales increased 4% to $82 million;
Operating Earnings increased to $3.5 million

    "In Building Block Chemicals, the effect of the divestiture of the
acrylamide product line decreased sales by 18% but this was more than
offset by an increase in sales of acrylonitrile to the purchaser of
the divested product line. Acrylonitrile is the key material used to
make acrylamide and in conjunction with the divestiture we signed a
long-term agreement to provide acrylonitrile to Kemira. Excluding
these two factors, selling volumes decreased by 7% principally due to
shipping delays as a result of poor weather in the Gulf Coast of the
U.S. Selling prices increased by 3% and the impact of exchange rate
changes was neutral.

    "Operating earnings increased to $3.5 million compared to a loss
of $3.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 when our manufacturing
operations were still adversely impacted by the hurricanes. The
increase was mostly due to higher selling prices, increased plant
production levels and the benefit of lower raw material costs, due
principally to lower costs for propylene, all of which more than
covered the loss of the earnings from the divested acrylamide product
line. Also included is expense of $0.3 million related to the
application of SFAS 123R."

    Special Items

    James P. Cronin, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer commented, "Included in Corporate and Unallocated in the
fourth quarter of 2006 are several items as follows.

    We recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge of $9.7 million
(after-tax $9.4 million or $0.19 per diluted share). Most of the
charge relates to our Cytec Surface Specialties manufacturing site in
France which produces solvent-borne alkyds and solvent-borne acrylics
primarily for the European market. The products made in France are
mature products, in a declining market with supplier overcapacity and
severe price erosion, thus the operations are generating losses. After
the appropriate consultations with the Works Council concerning the
site, we have commenced shutdown activities and recorded a pre-tax
$8.4 million restructuring charge, primarily for severance. The
remaining pre-tax $1.3 million is primarily for net restructuring
charges related to employee severance for our Cytec Performance
Chemicals manufacturing site in New Castle, Delaware which makes a key
polymer for our Engineered Materials segment. We are exiting the site
and the products made in New Castle will be made in our recently
completed manufacturing plant at our Kalamazoo, Michigan location.

    "We changed our pension plan in the U.K. from a defined benefit to
a defined contribution plan and as a result we incurred a pre-tax
curtailment charge of $2.6 million ($1.9 million after-tax or $0.04
per diluted share). Approximately $2.3 million of the pre-tax amount
is included in the Cytec Engineered Materials segment and the
remainder in the Cytec Performance Chemicals segment.

    "We incurred integration costs of $0.5 million ($0.4 million
after-tax or $0.01 per diluted share) related to the Surface
Specialties acquisition. These costs are included in Corporate and
Unallocated and this will be the last quarter where we are separately
tracking and reporting integration costs.

    "Finally, included in tax expense for the quarter is a charge of
$1.7 million or $0.04 per diluted share related to a taxable capital
reduction in one of our Southeast Asian subsidiaries as we reduced our
cash exposure there."

    Included in Corporate and Unallocated in the fourth quarter of
2005 was a pre-tax charge of $14.1 million ($10.5 million after-tax or
$0.22 per diluted share) for employee related severance costs
principally related to the formation of Cytec Specialty Chemicals
which combined the specialty chemicals product lines into one
organization under one leadership team. Also included were integration
costs of $0.2 million related to the Surface Specialties acquisition.
In addition, included in 2005 income tax expense was a $2.6 million or
$0.05 per diluted share gain related to a favorable tax development in
an international jurisdiction.

    Special Items Continued - Sale of Water Treatment and Acrylamide
Product Lines

    Mr. Cronin continued, "In October 2006 we completed the first of
three phases of the sale of our water treatment and acrylamide product
lines to Kemira Group. This first phase included the entire product
lines, excluding specific assets covered in the other two phases as
discussed below. We received approximately $208 million in proceeds
for this phase and recorded in Corporate and Unallocated in the fourth
quarter of 2006 is a pre-tax gain of $75.5 million (after-tax $59.6
million or $1.22 per diluted share) related to the first phase
closing.

    "In January 2007, we completed the second phase of the sale of our
water treatment chemicals and acrylamide product lines to Kemira
Group. This second phase completes the transfer of the Botlek site in
the Netherlands to Kemira and adds approximately $21 million of
proceeds to the $208 million received for the first phase closing. The
remaining phase includes certain assets at various subsidiaries in
Asia-Pacific and Latin America which are expected to close in the next
three months and we expect an estimated $10 million of additional
proceeds upon completion. The remaining closings are subject to
certain other conditions and the amounts could change due to final
working capital transferred."

    Interest Expense

    Mr. Cronin commented, "Interest expense decreased primarily due to
the overall lower debt level. In the quarter we used the net proceeds
from the aforementioned divestiture to pay down debt."

    Income Tax Expense

    Mr. Cronin added, "Our tax provision for the fourth quarter of
2006 was $28.5 million, or 25.5%, on earnings before income taxes.
Impacting the rate for the quarter was: the fact that no tax benefit
was available on the French restructuring charge; the 21% tax rate
associated with the gain on the divestiture of the water treatment and
acrylamide product lines; the incremental tax on the capital reduction
at one of our Southeast Asian subsidiaries; and the adjustment for
lowering the full year underlying effective tax rate to 26.8%
primarily due to the renewal of the 2006 research and development tax
credit in the U.S. Our underlying effective tax rate for the fourth
quarter of 2005 was 26%."

    Cash Flow

    Mr. Cronin commented further, "We are again pleased with our cash
flow generation in the quarter. Cash flow provided by operations was
$39.8 million for the quarter which is net of additional pension
contributions of $26 million to our U.S. plans and $5 million to our
U.K. plan. Trade accounts receivable dollars decreased $25 million and
days outstanding are essentially flat with the days outstanding at the
end of the third quarter. Inventory dollars increased $6 million and
days on hand are 77, up from the 71 days on hand at the end of the
third quarter. The largest increase in inventory was in Building Block
Chemicals primarily due to weather delayed shipments. Capital spending
for the quarter was $40 million bringing our full year spending to
$103 million. We continue to pay down debt in advance of scheduled
payment dates, primarily from the net proceeds received from the
divestiture, and during the quarter we paid down $215 million of our
debt.

    "Our cash flow from operations for the year ended December 31,
2006 is $201 million and year to date we have a net reduction in our
debt of $391 million."

    2007 Outlook

    Mr. Lilley commented, "As we begin 2007 we expect our aerospace
markets to continue to grow, particularly in the large commercial
aerospace, business jet and rotorcraft sectors. This is expected to
come from increasing build rates and the increasing share of
composites in newer aircraft programs. Military aircraft is expected
to have modest growth in 2007 as the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program
production rate will slowly ramp up. For our Specialty Chemicals
segments we expect demand in North America to be flat to down and our
expectation for Europe and Asia-Pacific is to continue their 2006
growing demand pattern into 2007. This should lead to only modest
growth despite continuing benefits from new product introductions.

    "On the input side, we expect a continuation of high raw material
costs. Through the past quarter, tightness in various raw material
areas has mostly offset the impact of the reduced costs of oil and
natural gas and we expect this situation to continue. We continue to
be concerned about the raw material price volatility and we are
raising selling prices where we can.

    "We expect some change in currencies year on year but our overall
mix of business is such that changes in currencies have a relatively
small impact on our overall results."

    The following comparisons to 2006 are exclusive of the special
items as noted in this press release.

    Mr. Lilley continued with some additional comments on the
individual segments, "In Cytec Performance Chemicals, we forecast
continued good growth in mining chemicals with moderate to low growth
in the remainder of the product lines. Our full year guidance is for
sales to be in a range of $700 million to $720 million, down from the
prior years $865 million and for operating earnings to be in a range
of $67 million to $71 million, about flat with the prior year. This
reflects the divestiture of our water treatment chemicals product line
in October of last year, which reduced sales by approximately $185
million. After excluding the divested product line, sales are
increasing in a range of 2% to 5%, with about half of the forecasted
increase due to volume and the remainder due to selling price.

    "In Cytec Surface Specialties, we forecast good growth in our
environmentally friendly, differentiated products although this is
somewhat muted by our expectation of weak North American demand. Raw
material costs continue to be a significant factor for this segment.
We expect no overall relief in 2007 and we are continuing to raise
prices where we can although in some of the mature product
technologies this has proven difficult. Overall, we are on track with
the initiatives we have identified to date in manufacturing, supply
chain and other operational areas but there is much more to do and our
people are diligently working towards our goal of a 10% operating
margin in the next two to three years. We have begun a number of other
improvement initiatives, including a review of product line
profitability, which led to our decision to shutdown our solvent-borne
alkyds manufacturing plant in France, but the full benefits from this
will not be realized until 2008. We expect to continue these product
line reviews as we seek to improve operating margins through product
line and asset rationalizations. As a result of all the above, our
full year guidance is for sales to be in a range of $1.58 billion to
$1.64 billion, up 4% to 8% from the prior years $1.52 billion, with
about a third of the forecasted increase due to volume and the
remainder due to selling price. Our forecast for operating earnings is
to be in a range of $97 million to $105 million, up from the prior
years $95.5 million.

    "In Cytec Engineered Materials, demand continues to improve due to
increasing build rates for aircraft, particularly large commercial and
business jet aircraft, and higher use of composite materials in
emerging programs. Our investments in new products are important for
these emerging programs and we will continue to make investments in
product qualifications as the manufacturers develop these new aircraft
platforms for the future. Taking into account the above, our full year
guidance for sales is to be in a range of $650 million to $660
million, up 8% to 10% from the prior years $602 million, primarily due
to increases in forecasted selling volumes, and operating earnings to
be in a range of $125 million to $130 million, up from the prior years
$108.4 million.

    "For Building Block Chemicals, two events in 2006 will impact our
results for 2007. We divested our acrylamide product line in October
of last year but under a long-term agreement we will provide
acrylonitrile to the purchaser of the acrylamide product line;
although the margins for acrylonitrile are lower than acrylamide. In
addition, we took full ownership of the melamine plant from our joint
venture partner in the third quarter of last year so we no longer have
the benefit of our partner paying for half of the fixed costs. Our
sales and marketing people are making good progress in marketing the
additional melamine capacity that we now own, although margins have
been poor. We are attempting to raise prices to improve the
profitability, but it will take time to see if we are successful.
Acrylonitrile export margins have improved and our expectation for the
cost of propylene is to be flat with the average for 2006 of about
$0.45 per pound. Taking into account the above, our full year guidance
for sales is to be about $390 million, up 15% from the prior years
$339 million, primarily due to increases in forecasted selling
volumes, and operating earnings to be about $12 million, down from the
prior years $19.3 million.

    "Our guidance for Corporate and Unallocated is expense of $7
million which is flat with the prior year. Other income/(expense) is
forecast to be expense of $4 million and equity earnings is forecast
to be flat with the prior year at about $3 million. Our forecast for
interest expense, net, is to be in a range of $42 to $44 million down
from the prior year amount of $56 million and our forecast for our
underlying annual effective tax rate for ongoing operations is a range
of 29.5% to 30.5% up from 2006's underlying annual effective tax rate
of 26.8%. The increase in the 2007 tax rate is primarily due to the
effect of the divestiture of the water treatment chemicals and
acrylamide product lines and increased earnings in 2007 in higher tax
jurisdictions.

    "Overall, our demand drivers and our improvement initiatives
remain mostly on track. We remain vigilant to take the appropriate
actions given the volatility in raw materials. Taking all the above
into account, our guidance for full year diluted earnings per share is
to be in a range of $3.60 to $3.80 per share up from the 2006 adjusted
diluted earnings per share of $3.45.

    "We continue to see growth opportunities for our specialty units
and we expect to increase capital expenditures to a range of $130 to
$140 million in 2007 to support this growth as well as continue to
enhance our infrastructure."

    In closing Mr. Lilley commented, "Looking back at 2006, we put in
place a number of improvement initiatives to benefit earnings,
including a renewed focus on new product introductions, and we expect
to continue this approach in 2007. As always, our goal is to build a
strong growing company and provide returns we can all be proud of."

    Use of Non-GAAP Measures

    Management believes that net earnings, basic and diluted earnings
per share before special items, which are non-GAAP measurements, are
meaningful to investors because they provide a view of the Company
with respect to ongoing operating results. Special items represent
significant charges or credits that are important to an understanding
of the Company's overall operating results in the period presented.
Such non-GAAP measurements are not recognized in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be
viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. A
reconciliation of GAAP measurements to non-GAAP can be found at the
end of this release.

             Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures
             Amounts in millions except per share amounts


Management believes that net earnings, basic and diluted earnings per
 share before special items, which are non-GAAP measurements, are
 meaningful to investors because they provide a view of the Company
 with respect to ongoing operating results.  Special items represent
 significant charges or credits that are important to an understanding
 of the Company's overall operating results in the periods presented.
 Such non-GAAP measurements are not recognized in accordance with
 generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be
 viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance.
