NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
June 30, 2003
(Thousands of dollars, except as noted and per share amounts)
Note A | Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair financial presentation have been included. Past operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results which may occur in future periods, and the interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. | ||
This Form 10-Q/A amends the Form 10-Q related to the second quarter of 2003 as filed by the Company on August 11, 2003. During the third quarter of 2003, the Company determined that certain restructuring and other charges of $5.9 million, representing the continuation of its worldwide restructuring program that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2002, more appropriately relate to the second quarter of 2003. In addition, the Company made adjustments to charges taken during 2002 of a net $1.0 million decrease, resulting in a net second quarter charge of $4.9 million. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein have been amended to reflect these changes. | ||
In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company shut down the U.S. manufacturing operations of the Fidelity electroless nickel business in Newark, New Jersey, and accounted for it as a discontinued operation. During the third quarter of 2003, the Company concluded that the revenue streams for this business have sufficiently continued through tolling arrangements with outside processors, and accordingly has reclassified these results to continuing operations for all periods presented in this Form 10-Q/A. The operating results of this business are summarized as follows (in millions): |

Note B | Divestitures of Precious Metals (Subsequent Event) and SCM Metals, Inc. | |
On June 3, 2003, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement with Umicore to sell its Precious Metals business (PMG business). This business is comprised of the Precious Metal Chemistry and Metal Management reportable segments, which were acquired by the Company from Degussa in August 2001. The sale to Umicore was completed on July 31, 2003, on which date the Company received gross proceeds of 697 million, or $814 million, before transaction costs, taxes and expenses. The PMG business has been classified as a discontinued operation, and the consolidated financial statements of prior periods have been restated, where applicable, to reflect this business as a discontinued operation. The transaction and related gain on sale will be recorded in the third quarter of 2003. | ||
The gross proceeds were used to repay the Companys outstanding indebtedness under its Senior credit facilities. The net proceeds from the sale are expected to be approximately $730 million, after transaction costs and expenses and taxes. During June 2003, the Company received a commitment for a new $150 million revolving credit facility. The new facility, which closed on August 7, 2003, bears interest at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.00% to 3.00% or PRIME plus 0.25% to 1.25%, matures in August 2006 and includes covenants that are less stringent than those in the previous Senior facility. | ||
On April 1, 2003, the Company completed its previously announced sale of its copper powders business SCM Metal Products, Inc. for proceeds of $65 million before transaction costs and expenses. The net proceeds, which are included in Cash provided by discontinued operations in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows, were used to repay a portion of the Companys outstanding indebtedness under its credit facilities. There was no gain or loss recorded on that date, as the business was written-down to fair value in the fourth quarter of 2002. This business has been presented as a discontinued operation for all periods presented. | ||
Operating results of discontinued operations are summarized as follows (in millions): |

Note C | Restructuring and Other Charges | |
During the three months ended June 30, 2003, the Company recorded restructuring ($3.0 million) and other ($2.9 million) charges relating to its continuing operations of $5.9 million, representing the continuation of its worldwide restructuring program that commenced in the fourth quarter of 2002. In addition, the Company made adjustments to charges taken during 2002 of a net $1.0 million decrease, resulting in a net second quarter charge of $4.9 million. The net charges are included in both Cost of products sold ($5.9 million) and Selling, general and administrative expenses (net credit of $1.0 million) in the Condensed Statements of Consolidated Operations. | ||
The $5.9 million of charges related to the current period are asset impairments and facility exit costs, including inventory write-downs in connection with reduced inventory levels at certain operating facilities. | ||
Restructuring liabilities for continuing operations at December 31, 2002, charges taken in 2003, and amounts utilized in 2003 to date are summarized as follows (in millions): |

Note E | Contingent Matters | |
The Company is a party to various legal proceedings incidental to its business and is subject to a variety of environmental and pollution control laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it operates. As is the case with other companies in similar industries, the Company faces exposure from actual or potential claims and legal proceedings involving environmental matters. Although it is very difficult to quantify the potential impact of compliance with or liability under environmental protection laws, management believes that the ultimate aggregate cost to the Company of environmental remediation, as well as other legal proceedings arising out of operations in the normal course of business, will not result in a material adverse effect upon its financial condition or results of operations. | ||
In November 2002, the Company received notice that shareholder class action lawsuits were filed against it related to the decline in the Companys stock price after the third quarter 2002 earnings announcement. The lawsuits allege virtually identical claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5 against the Company, certain executive officers and the Board of Directors. Plaintiffs seek damages in an unspecified amount to compensate persons who purchased the Companys stock between November 2001 and October 2002 at allegedly inflated market prices. While the ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot be determined at this time, management believes that these matters will not have a material adverse effect upon the Companys financial condition or results of operations. In addition, the named executive officers, the Board of Directors and the Company have Directors & Officers and Corporate Liability Insurance available for such matters. | ||
In October 2002, the Company was mentioned in a report issued by a United Nations panel focusing on companies and individuals operating in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and their alleged exploitation of the natural resources and other forms of wealth of the DRC. OM Group is not among the companies cited for financial sanctions in the report. As noted in the report, the Companys business in the DRC is comprised of a smelter plant, which is 55%-owned through a joint venture (Groupement Pour Le Traitement Du Terril De Lubumbashi) with the DRC state mining company (Gecamines) and a third party; as well as contractual arrangements and discussions with Gecamines and the third party with respect to the joint venture partners rights to various feedstocks related to the smelter project. While the ultimate impact of this report cannot be determined at this time, management believes that this matter will not result in a material adverse effect upon the Companys financial condition or results of operations. | ||

Note H | Stock Compensation Adoption of SFAS No. 148 | |
In December 2002, SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, was issued. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition when a company voluntarily changes to the fair value-based method of recognizing expense in results of operations for stock-based employee compensation, including stock options granted to employees. Prior to 2003, the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation under APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. Under APB 25, compensation expense has been recorded for restricted stock granted to certain executive officers, but no expense was recorded for stock options granted to employees, as all options had an intrinsic value of zero on the date of grant. During 2003, the Company voluntarily adopted, effective January 1, 2003, the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Under the prospective method of adoption selected by the Company under the provisions of SFAS No. 148, the recognition provisions will be applied to all employee awards granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003. As such, net income for 2003 will include expense for stock options granted to employees in 2003; there have been no such grants during the six months ended June 30, 2003. | ||
If the Company had previously elected to adopt the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123 and thereby recorded compensation expense related to employee stock options, pro forma results of operations would have been as follows: |

Note I | Income Taxes | |
Income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations before income taxes and minority interests for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were a benefit of 25.7% compared to expense of 30.1% in the same period in 2002. These effective rates are lower than the statutory rate in the United States due primarily to significant income earned each period in Malaysia, where the Company has a tax holiday, and the allocation of a portion of interest expense in the United States to discontinued operations, which effectively shifted a portion of the U.S. net operating loss without a corresponding tax benefit to discontinued operations. The lower rate in 2003 compared to 2002 is due primarily to higher earnings in the tax holiday country of Malaysia. | ||
Note J | Business Segment Information | |
In connection with the sale of the Precious Metals business, which was comprised of its Precious Metal Chemistry and Metal Management segments, the Company reorganized how it manages and evaluates its operations. As a result of this change, the Company has two reportable segments: the Cobalt Group and the Nickel Group. Formerly, these two segments comprised the Companys Base Metals reportable segment under its prior organizational structure. The information for the second quarter of 2003 and prior periods reflected in this Form 10-Q/A has been reclassified to conform to this new segment presentation. | ||
The Cobalt Group derives revenues from cobalt and other metal-based organic, inorganic, powder and metal products. The Nickel Group derives revenues from nickel-based organics, powders and metal products. Transactions between segments, which are not material, are made on a basis intended to reflect the current market value of material. Differences between the reportable segments operating results and net assets and the Companys consolidated financial statements relate primarily to items held at the Corporate level. | ||
Segment financial information is as follows (in millions): |

On July 31, 2003, the Company completed the sale of its Precious Metals business (PMG business) to Umicore for 697 million (approximately $814 million) in cash. The PMG business was comprised of the Precious Metal Chemistry and Metal Management reportable segments, which were acquired by the Company from Degussa in August 2001. On April 1, 2003, the Company completed the sale of its copper powders business, SCM Metal Products, Inc., for cash proceeds of $65 million less costs and expenses. The PMG business and copper powders business each had been classified as a discontinued operation prior to the sale, and the accompanying financial statements for the second quarter of 2003 and prior periods have been restated, where applicable, to reflect these businesses as discontinued operations. The continuing operations of the Company represent the historical base metals business and are organized into two segments: the Cobalt Group and the Nickel Group. The Nickel Group includes the results of the Companys Fidelity electroless nickel business, which has been reclassified from discontinued operations to continuing operations during the third quarter of 2003, for all periods presented (See Note A). | ||
Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 | ||
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $200.8 million, an increase of 6.9% compared to the same period in 2002. The increase was the result of higher metal market prices for cobalt and nickel, resulting in higher selling prices for the Companys products. This increase was partially offset by lower metal-contained sales volumes, due primarily to lower nickel volumes for the quarter. | ||
The following information summarizes market prices of the primary raw materials used by the Company: |

Gross profit decreased to $30.5 million, or 15.2% of net sales, for the three month period |
ended June 30, 2003, a 41.6% decrease compared to $52.3 million, or 27.8% of net sales, for the same period in 2002. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to restructuring and other charges of $5.9 million; the negative impact of the strengthened euro against the dollar on the Companys manufacturing expenses in Finland; increased raw material costs; LIFO charges in 2003 compared to benefits in 2002; and lower nickel production volumes at the Companys facility in Harjavalta, Finland due to a planned maintenance shut-down. The effects were partially offset by the positive impact of higher cobalt and nickel prices. | ||
Selling, general and administrative expenses in 2003 decreased as a percentage of sales, to 10.6% in 2003 compared to 10.8% in the 2002 period. This decrease is primarily the result of cost reductions from restructuring activities initiated in the fourth quarter of 2002, partially offset by the impact of the strengthened euro against the dollar in 2003 compared to 2002. When the euro strengthens against the dollar, selling, general and administrative expenses at the Companys facilities in Europe are translated into dollars at a higher rate, resulting in higher dollar expenses. | ||
Other expense net was $6.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to income of $3.8 million for the same period in 2002, due primarily to higher interest expense in 2003 compared to 2002 as a result of higher interest rates under the Companys December 2002 credit agreement and higher average outstanding borrowings, and smaller foreign exchange gains in 2003 ($3.2 million) compared to 2002 ($6.9 million). | ||
Income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations before income taxes and minority interests were 28.0% compared to 23.2% in the same period in 2002. These effective rates are lower than the statutory rate in the United States due primarily to significant income earned each period in Malaysia, where the Company has a tax holiday, and the allocation of a portion of interest expense in the United States to discontinued operations, which effectively shifted a portion of the U.S. net operating loss without a corresponding tax benefit to discontinued operations. | ||
Loss from discontinued operations was $1.0 million in 2003 compared to $2.0 million in 2002. The improvement is due primarily to the closure of certain unprofitable operations as of December 31, 2002, partially offset by higher interest expense as a result of higher interest rates in the current year period. | ||
Net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $2.2 million, compared to $25.5 million for the corresponding period in 2002, due primarily to the aforementioned factors. | ||
Cobalt Group | ||
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 decreased to $90.6 million compared to $91.9 million for the same period in 2002. The decrease is primarily due to changes in product mix, partially offset by higher volumes and metal pricing. | ||
Operating profit for the period was $8.7 million compared to $23.2 million in the 2002 period. The amount in 2003 includes restructuring and other charges of $2.6 million. Before these charges, operating profit decreased by $11.9 million due primarily to the negative impact of the euro and higher LIFO charges. | ||
Nickel Group | ||
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $110.2 million compared to $96.0 million for the same period in 2002, due primarily to higher metal market prices for nickel, resulting in higher selling prices for the Companys products. This increase was partially offset by a 10.3% decline in nickel-contained sales volumes. | ||
Operating profit for the period was $8.5 million compared to $16.2 million in the 2002 period. The amount in 2003 includes restructuring and other charges of $0.9 million. Before these charges, operating profit decreased by $6.8 million due primarily the negative impact of the euro, higher LIFO charges, and higher cost raw material feedstocks. | ||
Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 | ||
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $414.6 million, an increase of 15.2% compared to the same period in 2002. The increase was the result of higher metal market prices for cobalt and nickel, resulting in higher selling prices for the Companys products. This increase was partially offset by lower metal-contained sales volumes, due primarily to lower nickel volumes for the period. | ||

Gross profit decreased to $61.0 million, or 14.7% of net sales, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, a 39.9% decrease compared to $101.5 million, or 28.2% of net sales, for the same period in 2002. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to restructuring and other charges of $10.6 million; the negative impact of the strengthened euro against the dollar on the Companys manufacturing expenses in Finland; LIFO charges in 2003 compared to benefits in 2002; and lower nickel production volumes at the Companys facility in Harjavalta, Finland due to a planned maintenance shut-down. The effects were partially offset by the positive impact of higher cobalt and nickel prices and healthy demand in certain key end-markets. | ||
Selling, general and administrative expenses in 2003 decreased to 11.3% of sales compared to 11.8% in the 2002 period. The decrease was due primarily to cost reductions from restructuring activities initiated in the fourth quarter of 2002 primarily offset by restructuring and other charges of $3.5 million in 2003 and the impact of the strengthened euro against the dollar in 2003 compared to 2002. | ||
Other expense net was $19.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $3.2 million for the same period in 2002, due primarily to higher interest expense in 2003 compared to 2002 as a result of higher interest rates under the Companys December 2002 credit agreement and higher average outstanding borrowings, and smaller foreign exchange gains in 2003 ($0.7 million) compared to 2002 ($6.6 million). | ||
Income taxes as a percentage of income from continuing operations before income taxes and minority interests were a benefit of 25.7% compared to expense of 30.1% in the same period in 2002. These effective rates are lower than the statutory rate in the United States due primarily to significant income earned each period in Malaysia, where the Company has a tax holiday, and the allocation of a portion of interest expense in the United States to discontinued operations, which effectively shifted a portion of the U.S. net operating loss without a corresponding tax benefit to discontinued operations. The lower rate in 2003 compared to 2002 is due primarily to higher earnings in the tax holiday country of Malaysia. | ||
Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes was $2.1 million in 2003 compared to income of $9.7 million in 2002, due primarily to restructuring changes taken in 2003 and higher interest expense as a result of higher interest rates. | ||
Net loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $4.5 million, compared to net income of $48.9 million for the corresponding period in 2002, due primarily to the aforementioned factors. | ||
Cobalt Group | ||
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $179.1 million compared to $174.9 million for the same period in 2002, due primarily to higher metal market prices for cobalt, resulting in higher selling prices for the Companys products. This increase was also due to an 11.1% increase in cobalt-contained sales volumes. | ||
Operating profit for the period was $12.4 million compared to $42.3 million in the 2002 period. The amount in 2003 includes restructuring and other charges of $10.2 million. Before these charges, operating profit decreased by $19.7 million due primarily to the negative impact of the euro and higher LIFO charges. | ||
Nickel Group | ||
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $235.5 million compared to $185.0 million for the same period in 2002, due primarily to higher metal market prices for nickel, resulting in higher selling prices for the Companys products. This increase was partially offset by a 4.2% decline in nickel-contained sales volumes. | ||
Operating profit for the period was $17.6 million compared to $30.2 million in the 2002 period. The amount in 2003 includes restructuring and other charges of $2.5 million. Before these charges, operating profit decreased by $10.1 million due primarily the negative impact of the euro and higher LIFO charges. | ||
Liquidity and Capital Resources | ||
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, the Companys net working capital increased by approximately $38.4 million. This increase was primarily the result of a decrease in accounts payable of $31.0 million due to prepayments made by the Company for certain raw materials during the quarter, and an increase in accounts receivable of $13.5 million due to higher sales in the second quarter of 2003 compared to the fourth quarter of 2002. Capital expenditures in 2003 were $2.3 million and primarily related to ongoing projects to maintain current operating levels. | ||
During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Companys total debt balances decreased to $1.153 billion from $1.194 billion. This decrease represents primarily cash repayments using the net proceeds from the sale of SCM Metal Products, Inc. on April 1, 2003 (See Note B). Subsequent to June 30, the Company completed the sale of its Precious Metals business to Umicore for cash proceeds of $814 million, before transaction costs, taxes and expenses (See Note B). The gross proceeds were used to repay the Companys outstanding indebtedness under its Senior Credit facilities. The Companys $400 million Senior Subordinated Notes remain outstanding. The net proceeds from the sale are expected to be approximately $730 million, after transaction costs and expenses and taxes. | ||
During June 2003, the Company received a commitment for a new $150 million revolving credit facility. The new facility, which closed on August 7, 2003, bears interest at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.00% to 3.00% or PRIME plus 0.25% to 1.25%, matures in August 2006 and includes covenants that are less restrictive than those in the previous Senior facility. |
Critical Accounting Policies | ||
The consolidated financial statements include accounts of the company and all majority-owned subsidiaries. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. There has been no change in the companys critical accounting policies as disclosed in Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2002. In addition, no new critical accounting policies have been adopted in the first six months of 2003, except for the adoption of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, effective January 1, 2003, related to stock-based employee compensation (See Note H). | ||
