NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 28, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2007 and September 29, 2006, and the consolidated statements of cash flow and stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 and September 29, 2006 have been prepared by the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 28, 2007 and results of operations and cash flow for all periods presented have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The results of operations for the periods ended September 28, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The Company’s fiscal year begins on January 1st and ends on December 31st. Quarterly periods are based on a 4 weeks - 4 weeks -5 weeks methodology. As a result, the first quarter can include a partial or expanded week in the first four week period of the quarter. Similarly, the last five week period in the fourth quarter could include a partial or expanded week. Certain subsidiaries operating outside of North America are included for periods beginning and ending one month prior to the period presented, which enables timely processing of consolidating results. There were no material intervening events that occurred at these locations in the one month period prior to the period presented.

The Company incurred research & development expenses in the third quarter of 2007 and 2006 of $11.8 million and $11.5 million, respectively. The Company incurred research & development expenses in the first nine months of 2007 and 2006 of $33.4 million and $31.5 million, respectively. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

2.	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under FIN 48, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position should not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, declassification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.

The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of the date of adoption was $18.5 million, which was recorded in other long-term liabilities. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized an $8.3 million increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits which was accounted for as follows:


(In millions)
Increase in net deferred tax assets	$	9.6
Increase in noncurrent receivables		2.4
Increase in retained earnings (cumulative effect)		(2.5	)
Increase in noncurrent accrued interest payables		(1.2	)

Increase in liability for unrecognized tax benefits	$	8.3

Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, 2007, is $6.9 million of tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. The Company does not anticipate that total unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly due to the settlement of audits and the expiration of statutes of limitations within the next twelve months.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as the income tax in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. All U.S. federal income tax examinations of the Company for the years through 2003 have been effectively concluded. In October 2007, the Company was notified by the Internal Revenue Service that its 2005 federal income tax return had been selected for examination. Substantially all material state, local and foreign income tax matters have been effectively concluded for years through 2000.

The Company changed its policy for recording interest on certain unrecognized tax benefits from tax expense to interest expense. During the nine months ended September 28, 2007, the Company recognized approximately $0.9 million in interest and $1.3 million in tax expenses associated with uncertain tax positions.

Interest charges in the amount of $0.6 million and $0.4 million were capitalized in connection with construction projects for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 and September 29, 2006, respectively.

5.	Earnings Per Share

Basic EPS is calculated based on income available to common shareholders and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted EPS includes additional dilution from potential common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options outstanding and the dilutive effect of convertible debentures. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate Basic EPS is reconciled to those shares used in calculating Diluted EPS as follows:


	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
*(In thousands)*	September 28, 2007	September 29, 2006	September 28, 2007	September 29, 2006
Basic	65,913	64,966	65,762	64,716
Dilutive effect of stock options	1,194	870	1,233	808

Diluted	70,341	69,065	70,225	68,752

Anti-dilutive stock options outstanding - not included in the calculation of earnings per share	715	92	630	154

6.	Stock-Based Compensation

A summary of option activity during the nine months ended September 28, 2007 is as follows:


	Options (000)		Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($000)
Outstanding at January 1, 2007	4,579		$	25.61
Granted	615			49.00
Exercised	(590	)		17.56
Cancelled	(40	)		35.21

Outstanding at September 28, 2007	4,564		$	29.69	6.3	$	80,417

Exercisable at September 28, 2007	2,387		$	21.16	4.4	$	61,785

During the first quarter of 2007, the Company amended its stock option plan to provide that in the event a participant in the plan voluntarily terminates employment or is involuntarily terminated, without cause, and on the date of termination, such participant is at least 55 years old, has at least 5 years of service, and the participant’s combined age and years of service is equal to or greater than 65, then any stock options held by such employee, granted after the date of the amendment, may be exercised by such employee within a period of three years from the date of such termination of employment or, if earlier, the date such stock options otherwise would have expired provided that the options have vested before the end of such three year period or the expiration date as applicable. A participant is eligible for the exercise provision only if the participant executes a separation agreement, including non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions in a form acceptable to the Company and provides the Company with 120 days notice of the date of a voluntary termination. This change impacted the Company’s second quarter 2007 grant by accelerating expense of approximately $0.9 million into the second quarter. There were no modifications made to any options outstanding as of the date of the amendment described above.


	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	September 28, 2007			September 29, 2006			September 28, 2007			September 29, 2006
Intrinsic Value of Stock Options Exercised (in millions)	$	2.0		$	6.2		$	17.5		$	16.8
Stock Compensation Expense Related To Stock Option Awards (in millions)	$	2.3		$	2.8		$	8.3		$	7.6
Issued Stock Options (in thousands)		12			85			615			890
Average Fair Value of Stock Options Issued	$	14.53		$	14.52		$	16.87		$	13.55
Assumptions Used:
Risk-free interest rate		4.1	%		4.7	%		5.0	%		5.0	%
Expected life in Years		6.5			6.5			6.3			6.5

Dividend Yield		0.7	%		0.7	%		0.6	%		0.7	%

The average fair value is based upon the Black Scholes option pricing model. The Company determined the option’s life based on historical exercise behavior and determined the option’s expected volatility and dividend yield based on the historical changes in stock price and dividend payments. The risk free interest rate is based on the yield of an applicable term Treasury instrument.

Stock compensation expense related to restricted stock awards was $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2007 as compared to $0.1 million in the same period of 2006. This expense amounted to $0.7 million for the first nine months of 2007 as compared to $0.2 million for the period of 2006.

7.	Acquisitions

Orange Glo International, Inc.

On August 7, 2006, the Company acquired substantially all of the net assets of Orange Glo International, Inc. (the business represented by these assets is referred to as the “OGI business”), including laundry and cleaning products such as OXICLEAN, a premium-priced laundry pre-wash additive, KABOOM bathroom cleaner and ORANGE GLO household cleaner. The purchase price was $325.4 million, plus fees of approximately $4.6 million, which were financed through a $250.0 million addition to the Company’s existing bank credit facility and available cash. Assets acquired at the purchase date include intellectual property, permits, contracts, equipment, and books and records. The Company finalized the valuation of the OGI business in the second quarter of 2007.

Intangible amortization expense amounted to $4.5 million for the third quarter of 2007 and $3.4 million for the same period of 2006. Intangible amortization expense amounted to $13.5 million for the first nine months of 2007 and $9.2 million for the same period of 2006. The Company’s estimated intangible amortization expense will be approximately $18.3 million in each of 2008 and 2009, approximately $17.1 million in 2010 and 2011, and approximately $16.5 million in 2012.

During the first nine months of 2006, the Company recorded tradename impairment charges of $2.7 million including $0.4 million related to Consumer Domestic brands, and $2.3 million related to Consumer International brands. These charges are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the respective segments and were the result of increased competitive activity resulting in lost market share and lower forecasted sales and profitability. The amount of the impairment charges was determined by comparing the estimated fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. Fair value was estimated based on a “relief from royalty” discounted cash flow method. Under this method, the owner of an intangible asset must determine the arm’s length royalty that likely would have been charged if the owner had to license that asset from a third party.

During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company determined that certain tradenames should be re-characterized from indefinite lived to finite lived assets. This conclusion was based upon recurring impairment charges, continued competition in the marketplace, and the determination of a key customer to discontinue a product sold under one of these tradenames. The carrying value of these tradenames as of December 31, 2006 was approximately $20.0 million, and is being amortized over lives ranging from 3 to 15 years beginning on January 1, 2007. These lives were determined based upon the estimated future cash flows of these brands.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 are as follows:


*(In thousands)*	Consumer Domestic		Consumer International		Specialty		Total
Balance December 31, 2006	$	630,489	$	33,224	$	22,588	$	686,301
Goodwill associated with the OGI acquisition (1)		1,349		—		—		1,349

Balance September 28, 2007	$	632,725	$	33,224	$	22,588	$	688,537

(1)	Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill associated with the OGI acquisition primarily reflect final adjustments to the purchase price allocation and professional fees.

The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test during the second quarter of 2007 and no adjustments were required.

During the third quarter and nine month period of 2007, the Company paid approximately $8.4 million and $81.6 million of its Tranche A term loan, of which $55.0 million were voluntary payments that were paid during the first nine months of 2007.

During the first quarter of 2007, securitization of accounts receivable was increased by $15.0 million in response to the accounts receivable activity generated from the OGI business. The proceeds from this transaction were used to pay down the Company’s long term debt, as the interest rates under the accounts receivable securitization facility are normally favorable than those under the Company’s long term debt.

In April 2007, the accounts receivable securitization facility was renewed with similar terms to the facility previously in place and with a new maturity date of April 2008.

12.	Commitments, contingencies and guarantees

In December 1981, the Company formed a partnership with a supplier of raw materials which mines and processes sodium mineral deposits. The Company purchases the majority of its sodium raw material requirements from the partnership. This agreement terminates upon two years’ written notice by either company. The Company has an annual commitment to purchase 240,000 tons, at the prevailing market price. The Company is not engaged in any other material transactions with the partnership or the Company’s partner.

On October 26, 2005, a New Jersey state court jury rendered a $15.0 million verdict against the Company. The verdict followed a trial involving a claim against the Company by Andes Trading de Mexico S.A., alleging that the Company breached a purported agreement granting the plaintiff exclusive distribution rights in Mexico with respect to the Company’s consumer products. Shortly after the verdict was rendered, the Company filed a motion for a new trial and for remittitur of the verdict. On December 9, 2005, the court granted the motion in part and denied it in part. The court reduced the damages to $9.8 million which was accrued for in 2005, but did not grant the Company’s request for new trial. Subsequent to the court’s ruling, the Company and the plaintiff each appealed the ruling. The New Jersey Superior Court, Appellate Division heard oral arguments on the appeal on December 6, 2006. In March 2007, the appeals court affirmed the lower court’s verdict. The Company chose not to appeal the decision of the appeals court and, on April 11, 2007, paid $10.4 million, including accrued interest, to settle this litigation.

The Company’s distribution of condoms under the TROJAN and other trademarks is regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Certain of the Company’s condoms and similar condoms sold by its competitors contain the spermicide nonoxynol-9 (N-9). The World Health Organization and other interested groups have issued reports suggesting that N-9 should not be used rectally or for multiple daily acts of vaginal intercourse, given the ingredient’s potential to cause irritation to human membranes. The FDA issued non-binding draft guidance concerning the labeling of condoms in general and those with N-9 in particular. The Company filed a response recommending alternative labeling to the FDA. While awaiting further FDA guidance, the Company implemented an interim label statement change cautioning against rectal use and more-than-once-a-day vaginal use of condoms with N-9 and launched a public information campaign to communicate these messages to the affected communities. The Company believes that its present labeling for condoms with N-9 is compliant with the overall objectives of the FDA’s draft guidance and that condoms with N-9 will remain a viable contraceptive choice for those couples who wish to use them. However, the Company cannot predict the nature of the labeling that ultimately will be required by the FDA. If the FDA or state governments eventually promulgate rules which prohibit or restrict the use of N-9 in condoms (such as new labeling requirements), the Company could incur costs from obsolete products, packaging or raw materials, and sales of condoms could decline, which, in turn, could decrease the Company’s operating income.

The Company has commitments to acquire approximately $86.0 million of raw material, packaging supplies and services from its vendors at market prices. The packaging supplies are in either a converted or non-converted status. These commitments enable the Company to respond quickly to changes in customer orders/requirements.

The Company has $11.2 million of outstanding letters of credit drawn on several banks which guarantee payment for such things as finished goods inventory, insurance claims and one year of rent on a warehouse in the event of the Company’s insolvency.

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Unilever’s oral care brands in the United States and Canada in October 2003, the Company is required to make additional performance-based payments of a minimum of $5.0 million and a maximum of $12.0 million over the eight year period following the acquisition. The Company made cash payments of $1.0 million, and accrued a payment of $0.3 million in the first nine months of 2007. The payment and accrual were accounted for as additional purchase price. The Company has paid approximately $7.7 million, exclusive of the $0.3 million accrual, in additional performance-based payments since the acquisition.

During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company sold its Chicago plant at a price equivalent to the plant’s net book value. In conjunction with the sale, the Company entered into a seven year supply agreement with the purchaser for production of powder detergent at the plant. The supply agreement guarantees the purchaser a minimum annual production volume. If the annual production volume falls below the minimum, the Company is obligated to pay a shortfall penalty. This penalty is capped at $2.0 million over the life of the contract. As a result, the Company recorded a $1.3 million charge in the fourth quarter of 2006 which equates to the net present value of this penalty as the Company believes it is probable that it will not meet the minimum production levels in each year of the contract. The Company has accrued approximately $0.1 million of applicable interest expense in 2007 related to this obligation.

The Company, in the ordinary course of its business, is the subject of, or a party to, various pending or threatened legal actions. The Company believes that any ultimate liability arising from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position.

13.	Related Party Transactions

The Company divested the USA Detergents non-laundry business and other non-core assets to former USA Detergents executives in connection with its acquisition of USA Detergents in 2001. The Company has a $0.6 million ownership interest in the business operated by the former USA Detergents’ executives, also known as USA Detergents (“USAD”).

The gain on sale is included as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses and was allocated to the Consumer International segment.

15.	Segment Information

The Company maintains three reportable segments. These segments are based on differences in the nature of products and organizational and ownership structures. Specifically, the Company has identified the following segments: Consumer Domestic, Consumer International and Specialty Products Division (“SPD”). The Company also has a Corporate segment.

Segment revenues are derived from the sale of the following products:


Segment		Products
Consumer Domestic		Household and personal care products

16.	Subsequent Event

Subsequent to September 28, 2007, the Company announced an internal reorganization of certain functions relating to its Canadian subsidiary. The Company has notified certain employees in these functions that they will be severed and has reached a verbal agreement with one of its distributors to terminate its distribution contract. The total cost of the severance and contract termination is approximately $4.0 million and will be charged to the Consumer International segment.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Consolidated Results

Net Sales

Net Sales for the quarter ended September 28, 2007 were $580.4 million, $61.9 million or approximately 11.9% above last year’s third quarter. The increase is in part due to the business acquired by the Company from Orange Glo International, Inc. during the third quarter of 2006 (the “OGI business”). OGI business net sales for the portion of the 2007 quarter prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition of the OGI business accounted for approximately 5% of the increase in net sales, and foreign exchange rates accounted for 1% of the increase. The balance of the increase is a result of unit volume increases (across all segments) and price increases in the Specialty Products Division segment partially offset by higher trade promotion expenses.

Net Sales for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 were $1,641.2 million, $221.7 million or 15.6% above last year’s comparable nine month period. The increase is largely due to the impact of the OGI business and the SPINBRUSH toothbrush business, which collectively accounted for approximately 11% of the increase in net sales; the effect of foreign exchange rates accounted for approximately 1% of the increase. The balance of the increase is a result of unit volume increases partially offset by higher trade promotion and slotting expenses. Following the acquisition of the SPINBRUSH business and during the transition period prior to April 1, 2006, the seller of the SPINBRUSH business maintained responsibility for sales and other functions in the U.S., Canada and the U.K.; therefore, the Company accounted for the net cash received as other revenue. The Company assumed responsibility for all SPINBRUSH functions in the U.S., Canada and the U.K. on April 1, 2006, and has recognized the gross amount of sales and expenses from the SPINBRUSH business for the U.S. and foreign locations since that date.

Operating Costs

The Company’s gross profit was $229.4 million during the quarter ended September 28, 2007, a $26.4 million increase as compared to the same period in 2006. The Company’s gross margin increased 40 basis points to 39.5%. Gross profit reflects the impact of the OGI business, higher sales volume and foreign exchange rates, partially offset by higher trade promotion expenses. In addition to the impact of the OGI business, the increase in gross margin is principally due to cost reduction programs which serve to minimize continuing price increases for resins, corrugated paper, soda ash and certain other raw materials. For the nine month period, gross profit increased $89.2 million to $646.0 million. Gross margin increased to 39.4% for the first nine months of 2007 as compared to 39.2% in 2006. The reasons for the gross profit increase are the same as those described previously with respect to the third quarter of 2007.

Marketing expenses in the third quarter of 2007 were $69.7 million, an increase of $7.1 million as compared to the same period last year. This increase is primarily due to expenses in support of the OGI business product lines for the portion of the 2007 quarter prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition of the OGI business, and an increase in expenses for certain personal care products. Marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 were $181.7 million, an increase of $31.5 million as compared to the first nine months of the prior year. The increase principally was due to support for acquired businesses, an increase in expenses for certain personal care products and the effect of foreign exchange rates.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) of $71.1 million in the third quarter of 2007 decreased $0.4 million as compared to the third quarter of last year. The decrease was primarily due to the closing of the Company’s previously announced sale of certain property owned by its Canadian subsidiary for $7.2 million. The $3.3 million gain before taxes on this transaction reduced SG&A. This gain was partially offset by higher selling expenses in support of higher sales, higher information system costs, the effect of foreign exchange rates and an increase in legal expenses. SG&A expenses for the first nine months of 2007 were $217.0 million, an increase of $18.3 million as compared to the same period in 2006. The increase primarily is due to higher selling expenses in support of higher sales, higher stock based compensation costs, higher information system costs, an increase in legal costs and the effect of foreign exchange rates partially offset by the gain recorded on the sale of the Canadian property. In addition, SG&A for the first nine months of 2006 reflected intangible asset impairment charges of $2.7 million.

Equity in earnings of affiliates of $1.8 million was approximately the same in the third quarter of 2007 as in the same period in 2006. For the nine months ended September 28, 2007, equity in earnings of affiliates was $5.8 million as compared to $5.3 million for the same period in 2006. The increase is primarily due to the earnings of the Esseco U.K. LLP joint venture.

Other income was approximately $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2007 as compared to other expense of $0.7 million in the same period of 2006. For the first nine months of 2007, other income/expense was $1.4 million as compared to $1.8 million for the same period in 2006. Other income/expenses in both years principally reflect foreign exchange gains and losses. Also in the comparable 2006 period, other income/expenses included the fair market value of common stock the Company received in connection with the demutualization of an insurance company in which the Company was the policyholder of a guaranteed annuity contract associated with a defined benefit plan.

Interest expense in the three month period ended September 28, 2007 decreased $0.1 million compared to the same period in 2006. This was due to lower average bank debt outstanding as a result of mandatory repayments offset by higher interest expense associated with the debt used to finance the OGI business acquisition; this debt was not outstanding during the comparable period in 2006. Interest expense in the nine month period ended September 28, 2007 increased $6.5 million, as compared to the same period in 2006, as a result of the increase in debt to fund the OGI business acquisition. Investment earnings increased $0.8 million for the third quarter of 2007 and $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2007 as a result of higher cash available for investment.

Taxation

The third quarter 2007 tax rate was 34.7% as compared to 31.7% during the third quarter of 2006. The third quarter 2007 tax rate includes a $1.3 million benefit due to the reduction of tax liabilities relating to the U.S. and Australia. The third quarter 2007 tax rate also includes the benefit of the research tax credit which was reinstated by Congress in December 2006. The third quarter 2006 tax rate includes a $3.3 million reduction of tax liabilities primarily related to the completion of tax audits, offset by a valuation allowance of $1.5 million on deferred tax assets for one of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The third quarter 2006 was also unfavorably impacted by the expiration of the research tax credit on December 31, 2005.

The tax rate for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 was 36.4% as compared to 36.5% for the same period last year. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 includes a charge of $2.8 million, relating to a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets for one of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 also includes the $1.3 million benefit due to the reduction of tax liabilities described above. For the nine months ended September 29, 2006, the tax rate includes the previously described $3.3 million reduction of tax liabilities primarily as a result of the completion of a tax audit, offset by a valuation allowance of $1.5 million on deferred tax assets for the same foreign subsidiary. The tax rate for the nine months ended September 29, 2006 was negatively affected by the expiration of the research tax credit on December 31, 2005, which was reinstated in the fourth quarter of 2006.

Consumer Domestic

Consumer Domestic net sales in the third quarter of 2007 were $407.7 million, a $37.6 million or approximately 10% increase as compared to the third quarter of 2006. Of the increase, approximately 6% is due to net sales of the OGI business for the portion of the 2007 quarter prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition of the OGI business and the balance is due to higher unit volumes, partially offset by increased trade promotion expenses. Sales of ARM & HAMMER liquid laundry detergent, which include sales for the first phase of the Company’s shift to concentrated liquid detergent were higher than in last year’s third quarter. Other brands that contributed to higher sales were SPINBRUSH battery-operated toothbrushes, ARM & HAMMER SUPER SCOOP cat litter, TROJAN condoms, and ARM & HAMMER Dental Care. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of other toothpaste brands, lower antiperspirant sales and higher slotting expenses, primarily in support of new product launches.

Net Sales for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 were $1,166.3 million, an increase of $161.2 million or approximately 16% compared to net sales during last year’s first nine month period. The increase is primarily due to the OGI business acquisition. Higher unit volumes were partially offset by increased trade and consumer promotion expenses.

Consumer Domestic Income before Minority Interest and Income Taxes for the third quarter of 2007 was $58.0 million, a $15.2 million increase as compared to the third quarter of 2006, and for the nine month period ended September 28, 2007 was $159.3 million, an increase of $16.6 million as compared to the same period of 2006. Profits resulting from the OGI business were partially offset by higher marketing costs on pre-existing products, higher SG&A expenses, and higher interest expenses resulting from the OGI acquisition.

Consumer International

Consumer International net sales were $105.6 million in the third quarter of 2007, an increase of $11.9 million or approximately 13% as compared to the third quarter of 2006. Of the increase, approximately 7% is associated with favorable foreign exchange rates, approximately 2% is associated with the OGI acquisition and the balance is associated with higher sales of personal care products and household products in Canada, skin care and oral care products in France, skin care products in Australia, and depilatory products in Brazil, partially offset by the loss of a distribution arrangement to sell certain personal care products in the UK.

Consumer International net sales in the first nine months of 2007 were $288.7 million, an increase of $39.7 million, or approximately 16% as compared to the same period in 2006. Of the increase, approximately 6% is associated with the OGI and SPINBRUSH acquisitions, 6% is associated with favorable foreign exchange rates and the balance is associated with higher sales of personal care and household products in Canada, skin care and oral care products in France, skin care products in Australia, oral care products in the UK and depilatory products in Brazil, partially offset by the loss of a distribution arrangement to sell certain personal care products in the UK.

Consumer International Income before Minority Interest and Income Taxes was $15.2 million in the third quarter of 2007, a $6.4 million increase as compared to the third quarter of 2006, and for the first nine months of 2007 was $36.7 million, a $14.8 million increase as compared to the first nine months of 2006. The increase is a result of higher profits associated with sales in Canada, France, Australia and Brazil, and the contribution from the OGI business. The third quarter includes a $3.3 million gain associated with the sale of certain property owned by the Company’s Canadian subsidiary. In addition, in the first nine months of 2006, the segment incurred intangible asset impairment charges of $2.3 million.

Specialty Products (SPD)

Specialty Products net sales were $67.1 million in the third quarter of 2007, an increase of $12.4 million, or 22.6% as compared to the third quarter of 2006. Specialty Products sales increased due to higher unit volumes and improved pricing in both animal nutrition and specialty chemicals. The animal nutrition sales increase also reflects a pricing surcharge enacted during the third quarter of 2007 on certain products to recover extraordinary cost increases for a key raw material.

Specialty Products net sales were $186.2 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2007, an increase of $20.9 million, or 12.6% as compared to the same nine month period in 2006. The reasons for the increase are the same as described with respect to the third quarter of 2007.

Specialty Products Income before Minority Interest and Income Taxes was $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2007, an increase of $1.1 million as compared to the third quarter of 2006, and was $13.9 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2007, an increase of $2.7 million as compared to the first nine months in 2006. The increase is principally the result of profits on higher net sales, partially offset by higher raw material costs for certain animal nutrition and specialty chemical products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Debt

The Company had outstanding total debt of $866.5 million and cash of $178.5 million (of which approximately $62.8 million resides in foreign subsidiaries) at September 28, 2007. Total debt less cash (“net debt”) was $688.0 million at September 28, 2007. This compares to total debt of $933.3 million and cash of $110.5 million, resulting in net debt of $822.8 million at December 31, 2006.

The Company entered into two cash flow hedge agreements covering $100.0 million of zero cost collars, one effective as of September 29, 2006, and the other effective as of December 29, 2006, to reduce the impact of interest rate fluctuations on its Tranche A term loan debt. The hedge agreements have terms of 5 and 3 years, respectively, each with a cap of 6.50% and a floor of 3.57%. There was no income statement impact as a result of these agreements as all changes in the hedging options’ fair value are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the balance sheet.


	Nine Months Ended
Cash Flow Analysis *(In millions)*	September 28, 2007			September 29, 2006
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	$	159.3		$	109.3
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities	$	(29.7	)	$	(370.2	)
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities	$	(65.7	)	$	226.7

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities – The Company’s net cash provided by operations in the first nine months of 2007 increased $50.0 million to $159.3 million as compared to the same period in 2006. The increase was primarily due to higher net income, higher depreciation and amortization expense, higher non cash stock compensation expense and increases in income taxes payable that were offset by other working capital changes. The Company anticipates that its cash from operations will be sufficient to meet its capital expenditure program costs, pay its dividends at current rates and meet its mandatory debt repayment schedule over the next twelve months.

For the nine months ending September 28, 2007, the components of working capital that significantly impacted operating cash flow are as follows:

Accounts receivable increased $34.6 million due to increases at certain foreign subsidiaries as a result of seasonality of certain products and business growth.

Inventories increased $21.8 million primarily due to support of higher anticipated sales, as well as increased SPINBRUSH inventories to support the year-end holiday season, and higher inventories as part of the transition of OGI business manufacturing from contract manufacturers to Company facilities.

Accounts payable and other accrued expenses increased $2.8 million primarily due to increased marketing and interest expense offset by the $10.4 million litigation settlement described in Note 12 (b) to the consolidated financial statements included in this report, and the timing of payments related to increased payables at December 31, 2006.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities – Net cash used in investing activities during the first nine months of 2007 was $29.7 million, reflecting $36.2 million of additions for property, plant and equipment. Offsetting these investing activities were proceeds received from the sale of Canadian property of $7.2 million. (See Note 14 for more details on the sale of the Canadian property.)

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of 2007 was $65.7 million. This reflects voluntary and mandatory payments on the Tranche A term loan of $81.6 million and the payment of cash dividends of $14.5 million. Offsetting these transactions were an increase of $15.0 million in short-term borrowings related to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization facility (which was used to make voluntary Tranche A term loan payments), and proceeds of and tax benefits from stock option exercises of $15.9 million.

Adjusted EBITDA is a required component of the financial covenants contained in the Company’s primary credit facility. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a financial indicator of the Company’s ability to service its indebtedness. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, which is determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Financial covenants include a total debt to Adjusted EBITDA leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio, which if not met, could result in an event of default and trigger the early termination of the credit facility, if not remedied within a certain period of time. Adjusted EBITDA was $293.1 million for the first nine months of 2007. The leverage ratio (total debt to Adjusted EBITDA) for the 12 months ended September 28, 2007 was 2.34 which is below the maximum of 3.75 permitted under the credit facility, and the interest coverage ratio (Adjusted EBITDA to total interest expense) for the twelve months ended September 28, 2007 was 6.09 which is above the minimum of 3.0 permitted under the credit facility. The Company’s obligations under the credit facility are secured by the assets of the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries. The reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) to Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 28, 2007 is as follows (in millions):


Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	$	159.3
Interest Expense		43.9
Current Portion Of Income Tax Provision		57.2
Tax Benefit On Stock Options Exercised		5.5
Change in Working Capital and Other Liabilities		42.2
Investment Income		(5.1	)

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

The Company has short and long-term debt that are floating rate obligations. If the floating rate were to change by 100 basis points from the September 28, 2007 level, annual interest expense associated with the floating rate debt would be affected by approximately $5.2 million.

Foreign Currency

The Company is subject to exposure from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily U.S. Dollar/Euro, U.S. Dollar/British Pound, U.S. Dollar/Canadian Dollar, U.S. Dollar/Mexican Peso, U.S. Dollar/Australian Dollar and U.S. Dollar/Brazilian Real.

The Company is also subject to foreign exchange translation exposure as a result of its foreign operations. A 10% change in the exchange rates for the U.S. Dollar to the currencies noted above at September 28, 2007 would affect currency gain or loss by approximately $3.3 million.
