NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flow and the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the six months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010 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 July 1, 2011 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 (“GAAP”) 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, 2010. The results of operations for the period ended July 1, 2011 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 periods presented in the consolidated financial statements, which enables timely consolidation of operating results. There were no material intervening events that occurred with respect to these subsidiaries in the one month period prior to the period presented.

On May 5, 2011, the Company effected a two-for-one stock split of the Company’s common stock. The stock split was structured in the form of a 100% stock dividend, payable on June 1, 2011 to stockholders of record as of May 16, 2011. All applicable amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

The Company incurred research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2011 and 2010 of $13.1 million and $13.0 million, respectively. The Company incurred research and development expenses in the first six months of 2011 and 2010 of $25.6 million and $25.5 million, respectively. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted by the Company which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Accounting pronouncements that became effective during the six months ended July 1, 2011 had no impact on disclosures or on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The fair value of stock options is based upon the Black Scholes option pricing model. The Company determined the options’ life based on historical exercise behavior and determined the options’ 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 $0.0 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended July 1, 2011, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for the same periods of 2010.

 

7. Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Hierarchy

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs (generally, assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability) used to measure fair value based on the quality and reliability of the information provided by the inputs, as follows:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The Company recognizes transfers between input levels as of the actual date of the event. There were no transfers between input levels in the six months ended July 1, 2011. The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, all of which were measured based on Level 2 inputs:

   $ 1.8       $ 1.0   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts is based on observable forward rates in commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the contract.

The fair value of the equity derivatives is based on the quoted market prices of Company stock at the end of each reporting period.

The fair value of the diesel fuel contracts is based on home heating oil futures prices for the duration of the contract.

Fair Values of Other Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s other financial instruments at July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

     249.7         257.0         249.7         250.2   

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments reflected in the consolidated balance sheets:

Note Receivable: The fair value of the note receivable reflects what management believes is the appropriate interest factor at July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, based on similar risks in the market.

Short-term Borrowings: The carrying amounts of the Company’s unsecured lines of credit and accounts receivable securitization equal fair value because of short maturities and variable interest rates.

Senior Notes: The Company determines fair value of its senior note based upon its quoted market value.

 

8. Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

Changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, the price of the Company’s common stock and commodity prices expose the Company to market risk. The Company manages these risks by the use of derivative instruments, such as cash flow hedges, diesel hedge contracts, equity derivatives and foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

 

9


Table of Contents

The Company formally designates and documents qualifying instruments as hedges of underlying exposures when it enters into derivative arrangements. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as hedges and qualifying for hedge accounting are recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings during the period in which the hedged exposure affects earnings. The Company reviews the effectiveness of its hedging instruments on a quarterly basis. If the Company determines that a derivative instrument is no longer highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows, it recognizes in current period earnings the hedge ineffectiveness and discontinues hedge accounting with respect to the derivative instrument. Changes in fair value for derivatives not designated as hedges or those not qualifying for hedge accounting are recognized in current period earnings. Upon termination of cash flow hedges, the Company reclassifies gains and losses from other comprehensive income based on the timing of the underlying cash flows, unless the termination results from the failure of the intended transaction to occur in the expected timeframe. Such untimely transactions require immediate recognition in earnings of gains and losses previously recorded in other comprehensive income.

For additional details on the Company’s risk management activities and accounting for the Company’s derivative instruments, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Pension costs are lower in 2011 as compared to 2010 due in part to the termination of the Church & Dwight Co., Inc. Retirement Plan for Hourly Employees (a U.S. pension plan) at the end of the fourth quarter of 2010. Additionally, effective in the first quarter of 2011, the Company reduced the future service benefits provided by its pension plans in the United Kingdom. A $0.7 million reduction to the United Kingdom pension plan benefit obligations was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2010.

The Company made cash contributions of approximately $2.7 million to its pension plans during the first six months of 2011. The Company estimates it will be required to make additional cash contributions to its pension plans of approximately $0.3 million during the remainder of 2011 to offset 2011 benefit payments and administrative costs in excess of investment returns.

 

14. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

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

b. Our 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 our competitors, contain the spermicide nonoxynol-9 (“N-9”). Some interested groups have issued reports that N-9 should not be used rectally or for multiple daily acts of vaginal intercourse. In late 2008, the FDA issued final labeling guidance for latex condoms but excluded N-9 lubricated condoms from the guidance. While the Company awaits further FDA guidance on N-9 lubricated condoms, the Company believes that its present labeling for condoms with N-9 is compliant with the overall objectives of the FDA’s 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 that 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.

c. As of July 1, 2011, the Company had commitments through 2014 to acquire approximately $139.0 million of raw materials, packaging supplies and services from its vendors at market prices. Increase in commitments from $118.8 million at December 31, 2010 is principally the result of a new four-year information systems service agreement. These commitments enable the Company to respond quickly to changes in customer orders or requirements.

d. As of July 1, 2011, the Company had the following guarantees; (i) $3.7 million in outstanding letters of credit drawn on several banks which guarantee payment for such things as insurance claims in the event of the Company’s insolvency; (ii) insolvency protection guarantee of approximately $19.3 million to one of its United Kingdom pension plans effective January 1, 2011; (iii) $3.0 million worth of assets in guarantees for its Brazil operations for value added tax assessments currently under appeal; and (iv) guarantees of approximately $1.1 million for the payment of rent on a leased facility in Spain which expires in November 2012.

e. 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 $0.3 million, and accrued a payment of $0.1 million in the first six months of 2011. The payment and accrual were accounted for as additional purchase price. The Company has paid approximately $10.6 million, exclusive of the $0.1 million accrual, in additional performance-based payments since the acquisition.

f. In 2000, the Company acquired majority ownership in its Brazilian subsidiary, Quimica Geral Do Nordeste S.A. (“QGN”). The acquired operations included an inorganic salt manufacturing plant which began site operations in the late 1970’s. Located on the site were two closed landfills, two active landfills and a pond for the management of the process waste streams. In 2009, QGN was advised by environmental authorities in the State of Bahia, the Institute of the Environment (“IMA”), that the plant was discharging contaminants into an adjacent creek. After learning of the discharge, QGN took immediate action to cease the discharge and retained two nationally recognized environmental firms to prepare a site investigation / remedial action plan (“SI/RA”). The SI/RA report was submitted by QGN to IMA in July 2010. The report concluded that the likely sources of the discharge were the pond and closed landfills.

In November 2010, IMA responded to QGN’s recommendation for an additional study by issuing a notification requiring a broad range of remediation measures (the “Remediation Notification”). In addition, notwithstanding repeated discussions with IMA at QGN’s request to consider QGN’s proposed remediation alternatives, in December 2010, IMA imposed a fine of five million reals (approximately $3 million) for the discharge of contaminants above allowable limits. Also in December 2010, QGN filed with IMA an administrative defense to the fine. IMA has not yet responded to QGN’s administrative defense.

With respect to the Remediation Notification, QGN engaged in discussions with IMA during which QGN asserted that a number of the remediation measures and the timeframes for implementation were not appropriate and requested that the Remediation Notification be withdrawn. In response, IMA issued a revised Remediation Notification providing for further site analysis by QGN. QGN has responded to the revised Remediation Notification providing clarification to the remediation measures and intends to continue discussions with the Institute of Environment and Waste Management (“INEMA”), successor to IMA, to seek agreement on a rational and appropriate remediation plan. QGN discontinued operations at the site in late 2010. QGN continues to conduct appropriate remedial activities, based upon the revised Remediation Notification, at the site during the discussions with INEMA.

As a result of the foregoing events, the Company accrued approximately $3 million in 2009 and an additional $4.8 million in 2010 for remediation, fines and related costs. However, the Company cannot assure that additional costs will not be incurred in connection with this matter.

g. In June 2009, the Company received a subpoena and civil investigative demand from the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) in connection with a non-public investigation in which the FTC is seeking to determine if the Company has engaged or is engaging in any unfair methods of competition with respect to the distribution and sale of condoms in the United States through potentially exclusionary practices. The Company believes that its distribution and sales practices involving the sale of condoms in the United States are in full compliance with applicable law. The FTC notified the Company in March 2011 that it has not made a determination as to whether to take any further administrative or legal action. In the meantime, the Company continues to comply with the subpoena.

h. The Company has recorded liabilities for uncertain income tax positions that, although supportable, may be challenged by the tax authorities. The years 2008 and 2009 are currently under audit by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and several state taxing authorities. In addition, certain statutes of limitation are scheduled to expire in the near future. It is reasonably possible that within the next twelve months the liabilities for uncertain tax positions may decrease by

Table of Contents

approximately $14.9 million related to the settlement of these audits or the lapse of applicable statutes of limitations. Of this amount, $2.0 million would be offset by a corresponding reduction in the amount of deferred tax assets on the balance sheet. At this time, the Company is not able to make a reasonable estimate of the impact on the effective tax rate from the potential decrease in liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

i. The Company, in the ordinary course of its business, is the subject of, or a party to, various other 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, results of operations and cash flows.

16. Restructuring Activities

International Facility Closing Costs

During the third quarter of 2010, the Company decided to cease operations at two plants at one of its international subsidiaries. During the six months ended July 1, 2011, the Company incurred and recognized $0.8 million in exit and disposal costs. As of July 1, 2011, the Company had incurred a cumulative total of $1.4 million and paid $1.3 million relating to exit and disposal costs. These charges were included in cost of sales in the Specialty Products segment. All other costs associated with the international plant shut down activity will be recorded in the period in which the liability is incurred (generally, when goods or services associated with the activity are received).

North Brunswick, New Jersey Closing Costs

In the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company completed construction and started operations in its integrated laundry detergent manufacturing plant and distribution center in York, Pennsylvania. In conjunction with the opening of the new facility, the Company closed its existing laundry detergent manufacturing plant and distribution facility in North Brunswick, New Jersey.

Green River, Wyoming

During the first quarter of 2011, the Company announced its decision to relocate a portion of its Green River, Wyoming operations to a newly leased site in Victorville, California in the first half of 2012 pending final local approval. Specifically, the Company will be relocating its cat litter manufacturing operations and distribution center to this southern California site to be closer to transportation hubs and its West Coast customers. The site will also produce liquid laundry detergent products and is expandable to meet future business needs. The Company’s sodium bicarbonate operations and other consumer product manufacturing will remain at the Green River facility.

The Company expects to invest approximately $30 million in capital expenditures and incur approximately $8 million in transition expenses in connection with the opening of the Victorville site and costs associated with the changes anticipated at the Green River facility. These expenditures will be recorded in the Consumer Domestic segment. Capital expenditures related to the new project in 2011 are expected to be approximately $11 million. The transition expenses include anticipated severance costs and accelerated depreciation of equipment at the Company’s Green River facility and one-time project expenses. The transition expenses, net of taxes, are expected to be approximately $0.02 per share in 2011 and $0.02 per share in 2012.

18. Subsequent Events

New Corporate Office Building

On July 20, 2011, the Company entered into a 20 year lease for a new corporate headquarters building that will be constructed in Ewing, New Jersey (approximately 10 miles from the Company’s existing corporate headquarters in Princeton, New Jersey). Based on current expectations that the facility will be completed and occupied beginning in early 2013, the lease will expire in 2033. The Company’s lease commitment is approximately $116 million. In conjunction with its lease of the new headquarters building, the Company will be vacating three leased facilities adjacent to its current Princeton headquarters facility. The Company is currently assessing the future impact of the new lease agreement, and any changes to its current lease agreements, on its consolidated financial statements.

Share Repurchase Authorization

On August 3, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company’s common stock. Any purchases may be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, subject to market conditions, corporate and legal requirements and other factors. The Company is not obligated to acquire any specific number of shares. As of August 2, 2011, approximately 144 million shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding.

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

Recent Developments

Two-for-one stock split

On May 5, 2011, the Company effected a two-for-one stock split of the Company’s common stock. The stock split was structured in the form of a 100% stock dividend, payable on June 1, 2011 to stockholders of record as of May 16, 2011. All applicable amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

Acquisition

On June 28, 2011, the Company acquired the BATISTE dry shampoo brand from Vivalis, Limited (the “Batiste Acquisition”) for cash consideration of $64.8 million. The Company paid for the acquisition from available cash. BATISTE annual sales are approximately $20.0 million. The BATISTE brand will be managed principally within the Consumer International segment.

New Corporate Office Building

On July 20, 2011, the Company entered into a 20 year lease for a new corporate headquarters building that will be constructed in Ewing, New Jersey (approximately 10 miles from the Company’s existing corporate headquarters in Princeton, New Jersey). Based on current expectations that the facility will be completed and occupied beginning in early 2013, the lease will expire in 2033. The Company’s lease commitment is approximately $116 million. In conjunction with its lease of the new headquarters building, the Company will be vacating three leased facilities adjacent to its current Princeton headquarters facility. The Company is currently assessing the future impact of the new lease agreement, and any changes to its current lease agreements, on its consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

Consolidated Results

Net Sales

Net sales for the quarter ended July 1, 2011 were $674.9 million, an increase of $34.0 million or 5.3% over the second quarter of 2010. Net sales for the six months ended July 1, 2011 were $1,317.2 million, $41.8 million or 3.3% above the comparable six month period of 2010. The components of the net sales increase are the following:

(1) On June 4, 2010, the Company acquired the SIMPLY SALINE product line, and in late December 2010, acquired the FELINE PINE product line. Net sales of the acquired product lines subsequent to the acquisition are included in the Company’s results.
(2) Product lines divested include the BRILLO and certain LAMBERT KAY product lines, which were divested in the first quarter of 2010.

For the three months ended July 1, 2011, the volume change reflects increases of products sold across all three segments. Pricing and sales mix had no impact on total net sales, as the favorable price/mix for SPD was offset by the unfavorable price/mix for both Consumer Domestic and Consumer International. For the six months ended July 1, 2011, the volume change primarily reflects increased consumer products sales in the United States and abroad. The reduction in net sales for the first six months of 2011 resulting from pricing and sales mix primarily reflect higher trade promotion expenses. The components of the net sales increase for the six month period ended July 1, 2011 reflects the Company’s change in delivery arrangements with certain customers at the beginning of the second quarter of 2010, which resulted in a reduction in net sales due to a transportation allowance for a customer pick-up program. Previously, the cost to ship product was included in cost of sales. As the change in delivery arrangements was in effect during the second quarter of both 2011 and 2010, the change was not a component of the net sales increase for the second quarter of 2011. The discontinued product line reflects the Company’s decision in late 2010 to cease a foreign subsidiary’s sale of a certain chemical product line. The impact of the discontinued product line on Income before Income Taxes was not material.

Operating Costs

The Company’s gross profit was $300.0 million for the quarter ended July 1, 2011, a $9.1 million increase as compared to the same period in 2010. The gross profit increase was attributable to higher sales volume, contributions from the acquired product lines, the effect of cost reduction programs and favorable foreign exchange rates. Partially offsetting the gross profit improvement was an unfavorable pricing and sales mix, in part due to higher trade promotion and higher commodity costs. For the six month period ended July 1, 2011, gross profit increased $11.7 million to $588.1 million. The factors causing the increase in gross profit for the six months ended July 1, 2011 are primarily the same as those applicable to the second quarter 2011. Also, year to date gross profit was affected by the divested product lines. Gross margin decreased 90 basis points to 44.5% in the second quarter as compared to 45.4% in the same quarter last year. This decrease is principally due to higher commodity costs, higher trade promotion spending and unfavorable product mix, offset in part by manufacturing cost reduction projects. Gross margin decreased 60 basis points to 44.6% in the first six months of 2011 as compared to 45.2% in the same period of 2010. The factors causing the decrease in gross margin for the six months ended July 1, 2011 are primarily the same as those applicable to the second quarter 2011.

Marketing expenses were $87.5 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $4.7 million or 5.7% as compared to the same period in 2010. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales was 13.0% and 12.9% in the three months ended 2011 and 2010, respectively. Marketing spending primarily was in support of the Company’s eight power brands, as well as expenses related to the SIMPLY SALINE and FELINE PINE product lines acquired in 2010. Marketing expenses for the first six months of 2011 was $156.7 million, an increase of $5.0 million as compared to the same period in 2010. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales remained constant at 11.9% in the first six months of 2011 as compared to the same period last year. The factors causing the increase in marketing expenses for the six months ended July 1, 2011 are the same as those applicable to second quarter 2011 marketing expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $94.7 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $6.6 million as compared to the same period in 2010. The increase is attributable to higher legal expenses due in part from the Company’s defense of an FTC subpoena and legal expenses associated with the Batiste Acquisition, transition and amortization expense related to the product lines acquired last year and the effect of foreign exchange rates. SG&A expenses for the first half of 2011 were $182.5 million, an increase of $9.8 million over the same period in 2010. The factors causing the increase in SG&A expenses for the six months ended July 1, 2011 are the same as those applicable to second quarter of 2011. In addition, during the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a $1.0 million gain on the sale of certain LAMBERT KAY products, which reduced SG&A expenses in 2010.

Other Income and Expenses

Equity in earnings of affiliates increased by $1.6 million in the quarter and $2.6 million for the six month period as compared to the same periods of last year. The increase is due to higher equity income from the Company’s Armand Products Company joint venture primarily as a result of lower costs of a key raw material.

Investment income in the three and the six month periods ended July 1, 2011 increased $0.2 million and $0.6 million respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due to higher investment returns and interest received on a Federal tax refund.

Interest expense in the three and six month periods ended July 1, 2011 decreased $2.7 million and $8.2 million respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010. The decline was due to lower average debt outstanding as a result of the Company’s new debt structure put in place at the end of 2010. (See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 for further information.)

Taxation

The effective tax rate in the three and six month periods ended July 1, 2011 was 30.6% and 33.7% respectively, compared to 36.2% in the same periods last year. The decrease in the second quarter effective tax rate resulted from a deferred income tax benefit of approximately $6 million related to New Jersey’s corporate income tax reform enacted in April 2011. The 2011 annual effective tax rate is projected to be approximately 35%.

Segment results

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

Table of Contents

Consumer Domestic income before income taxes in the second quarter of 2011 was $94.1 million, a $3.5 million decrease as compared to the second quarter of 2010. For the six month period ended July 1, 2011, income before income taxes was $198.9 million, a $2.1 million increase as compared to the first six months of 2010. The second quarter decrease is due to higher legal expenses, higher marketing expenses and higher commodity costs, partially offset by higher sales volume, the effect of acquisitions, cost efficiency programs and lower interest expense. The six month increase reflects higher product volumes sold, the net effect of acquisitions and divestitures, and lower allocated interest expense, partially offset by higher commodity costs (reflecting significant increases in the cost of resin, surfactants and latex), higher trade promotion expenses, unfavorable sales mix and higher SG&A expenses. Mid-year price increases for detergent and condoms are expected to mitigate a portion of the increased commodity costs.

Consumer International

Consumer International net sales were $126.0 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $13.9 million or 12.4% as compared to the second quarter of 2010. Consumer International net sales in the first six months of 2011 were $235.6 million, an increase of $20.8 million or approximately 9.7% as compared to the same period in 2010.

Higher sales in the second quarter and first half of 2011 occurred principally in Australia and also reflected increased U.S. exports. Net sales in France were also higher in the first half of 2011 as compared to the prior year.

Consumer International income before income taxes was $13.5 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $1.8 million compared to 2010. Higher profits are attributable to the higher sales volume, favorable exchange rates on U.S. dollar purchases of inventory and the translation of foreign financial statements to U.S. dollars, partially offset by unfavorable pricing and sales mix. For the first six months of 2011, income before income taxes was $32.6 million, a $5.3 million increase as compared to the first six months of 2010. The factors causing the increase in Consumer International income before income taxes for the six months ended July 1, 2011 are the same as those applicable to the second quarter of 2011.

Specialty Products

Specialty Products net sales were $66.6 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $3.3 million, or 5.3% as compared to 2010. Specialty Products net sales were $128.2 million for the first six months of 2011, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 0.2% as compared to the same period of 2010. The components of the net sales change are the following:

The pricing and sales mix increase in 2011 reflects higher sales prices in response to raw material increases primarily in the animal nutrition and performance products businesses. The sales volume decrease reflects lower U.S. exports. The discontinued product line reflects the Company’s decision in late 2010 to cease a foreign subsidiary’s sale of a certain chemical product line. Net sales for the six months ended July 1, 2011 were impacted by modest sales volume growth offset by the discontinued product line.

Table of Contents

Specialty Products income before income taxes was $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $2.7 million as compared to 2010, and was $13.8 million for the first six months of 2011, a decrease of $1.1 million as compared to the same six month period of 2010. The increase in the second quarter income is primarily a result of higher sales prices, partially offset by higher raw material costs. The decrease in income for the first six months of 2011 primarily reflects higher manufacturing costs of certain animal nutrition products, partially offset by higher selling prices and favorable sales mix. The impact of the discontinued product on income before income taxes was not material.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of July 1, 2011, the Company had $163.4 million in cash, $115 million available under the Company’s accounts receivable securitization facility, approximately $500 million available under its revolving credit facility and a commitment increase feature under the revolving credit facility that enables the Company to borrow up to an additional $500 million, subject to agreement of lenders and satisfaction of certain conditions in the credit agreement. To enhance the safety of its cash resources, the Company invests its cash primarily in prime money market funds.

In the first quarter of 2011, the Company repaid the $90.0 million outstanding under its accounts receivable securitization facility. In February 2011, the accounts receivable securitization facility was renewed with a new maturity date of February 2012 under similar terms and conditions to those previously in effect.

The current economic environment presents risks that could have adverse consequences for the Company’s liquidity. (See “Economic conditions could adversely affect our business” under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.) The Company does not anticipate that current economic conditions will adversely affect its ability to comply with the financial covenants in its principal credit facilities because the Company currently is, and anticipates that it will continue to be, in compliance with the minimum interest coverage ratio requirement and the maximum leverage ratio requirement under its credit facility. These financial ratios are discussed in more detail in this section under “Certain Financial Covenants.”

The Company anticipates that its cash from operations, together with its current borrowing capacity, will be sufficient to fund its estimated capital expenditures, which are expected to be approximately $80.0 million in 2011, and to pay dividends at the current rate. Included in the estimated capital expenditures for 2011 is $17 million for the Company’s global information systems upgrade project and the initial costs for building a West Coast manufacturing and distribution facility in Victorville, California. Specifically, the Company will be relocating its cat litter manufacturing operations and a distribution center from its Green River, Wyoming facility. The new site also will include a liquid laundry production line. The Company expects to invest approximately $30 million in capital expenditures and incur approximately $8 million in transition expenses in connection with the opening of the Victorville site and costs associated with anticipated changes at the Green River facility. Capital expenditures related to the new project in 2011 are expected to be $11 million. The transition expenses include anticipated severance costs and accelerated depreciation of equipment at the Company’s Green River facility and one-time project expenses. The transition expenses, net of taxes, are expected to be approximately $0.02 per share in 2011 and $0.02 per share in 2012.

As a result of the 2010 refinancing activities, the Company does not have any mandatory debt repayments in 2011. Available cash resources may be used for acquisitions that would complement the Company’s existing product lines or geographic markets.

Net Debt

The Company had outstanding total debt of $249.7 million and cash of $163.4 million (of which approximately $107.5 million resides in foreign subsidiaries) at July 1, 2011. Total debt less cash (“net debt”) was $86.3 million at July 1, 2011. This compares to total debt of $339.7 million and cash of $189.2 million, resulting in net debt of $150.5 million at December 31, 2010.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities – The Company’s net cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2011 was $171.7 million, a $47.9 million greater increase than occurred during the same period in 2010. The comparatively greater increase was primarily due to higher net income, higher deferred income tax liabilities reflecting a change in the tax law regarding the immediate deductibility of capital expenditures placed in service in 2011, and a smaller increase in working capital (exclusive of cash), mainly due to an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

For the six months ended July 1, 2011, the components of working capital that significantly affected operating cash flow are as follows:

Accounts receivable increased $34.7 million due to the timing of increased net sales.

Inventories increased $15.5 million primarily due to increases in raw material costs and build-up of inventories in anticipation of higher sales.

Accounts payable and other accrued expenses were slightly higher due to the timing of payments.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities – Net cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2011 was $87.2 million, reflecting the $64.8 million cash consideration for the BATISTE Acquisition brand and $23.6 million of property, plant and equipment expenditures, partially offset by $1.3 million in payments received from outstanding notes receivable.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of 2011 was $116.7 million, principally reflecting repayment of the outstanding $90.0 million in borrowings under the Company’s accounts receivable securitization facility. Other net cash used in financing activities included $48.6 million to pay cash dividends partly offset by proceeds of and tax benefits from stock option exercises, aggregating $22.0 million.

Certain Financial Covenants

“Consolidated EBITDA” (referred to below as “Adjusted EBITDA”) is a component of the financial covenants contained in, and is defined in, the Company’s revolving credit facility (“Credit Agreement”). Financial covenants include a leverage ratio (total debt to Adjusted EBITDA) and an interest coverage ratio (Adjusted EBITDA to total interest expense), which if not met, could result in an event of default and trigger the early termination of the Credit Agreement. 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. The Company’s leverage ratio for the twelve months ended July 1, 2011 was 0.5, which is below the maximum of 3.25 permitted under the Credit Agreement, and the interest coverage ratio for the twelve months ended July 1, 2011 was 23.3, which is above the minimum of 3.00 permitted under the Credit Agreement.

New Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted by the Company which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Accounting pronouncements that became effective during the six months ended July 1, 2011 had no impact on disclosures or on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk

Interest Rate Risk

The Company has significantly reduced its interest rate risk as a result of its refinancing activities in 2010. The Company had outstanding total debt at July 1, 2011 of $249.7 million, all of which carries a fixed rate of interest at 3.35%. Should the Company need to use its revolving credit facility, it would consider entering into hedge agreements to mitigate the interest rate risk if conditions warrant.

Diesel Fuel Hedge

The Company uses independent freight carriers to deliver its products. These carriers charge the Company a basic rate per mile that is subject to a mileage surcharge for diesel fuel price increases. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company entered into hedge agreements with a financial counterparty. Under the hedge agreements, the Company agreed to pay a fixed price per gallon of diesel fuel determined at the time the agreements were executed and to receive a floating rate payment reflecting the variable common carriers’ mileage surcharge. The last of the agreements, which cover approximately 23% of the Company’s 2011 diesel fuel requirements, expire on September 30, 2011. The Company uses the hedge agreements to mitigate the volatility of diesel fuel prices and related fuel surcharges, and not to speculate in the future price of diesel fuel. These agreements qualify for hedge accounting. Therefore, changes in the fair value of diesel fuel hedge agreements are recorded in Other Comprehensive Income on the balance sheet.

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, U.S. Dollar/Brazilian Real and U.S. Dollar/Chinese Yuan.

The Company, from time to time, enters into forward exchange contracts to reduce the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations related to anticipated but not yet committed transactions denominated in the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, Brazilian Real, British pound and Euro. The Company enters into these contracts to reduce the risk that, due to changes in currency exchange rates, it would be adversely affected by net cash outflows. The face value of unexpired contracts as of July 1, 2011 totaled U.S. $39.5 million. Approximately U.S. $37.9 million of these contracts were designated as hedges and qualified for hedge accounting and as a result changes in fair values from these contracts were recorded in Other Comprehensive Income during the six months ended July 1, 2011.

Equity Derivatives

The Company has entered into equity derivative contracts covering its own stock in order to minimize its liability, resulting from changes in quoted fair values of Company stock, to participants under its Executive Deferred Compensation Plan who have investments under that plan in a notional Company stock fund. Since the equity derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting, the Company is required to mark the agreements to market throughout the life of the agreements and record changes in fair value in the consolidated statement of income.

See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information regarding the reported changes in fair values of the Company’s diesel fuel, foreign currency and equity derivative instruments.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

  a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) at the end of the period covered by this report.
