Description of Business
Phibro Animal Health Corporation (“Phibro” or “PAHC”) and its subsidiaries (together, the “Company”) is a diversified global developer, manufacturer and marketer of a broad range of animal health and mineral nutrition products for food animals including poultry, swine, cattle, dairy and aquaculture. The Company is also a manufacturer and marketer of performance products for use in the personal care, industrial chemical and chemical catalyst industries. Unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise, references in this report to “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar expressions refer to Phibro and its subsidiaries.
The unaudited consolidated financial information for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, is presented on the same basis as the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 (the “Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 27, 2019 (File no. 001-36410). In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods, and the adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The financial results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet information as of June 30, 2019, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The unaudited consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Phibro and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements. The decision whether or not to consolidate an entity requires consideration of majority voting interests, as well as effective control over the entity.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards
Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report. We adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), effective July 1, 2019. See “New Accounting Standards” and “Note 7—Leases.” As of September 30, 2019, there have been no other material changes to our significant accounting policies.
Leases
We determine at the inception of an arrangement whether the arrangement contains a lease. If an arrangement contains a lease, we assess the lease term when the underlying asset is available for use (“lease commencement.”) Individual lease terms reflect the non-cancellable period of the lease, reasonably certain renewal periods and consideration of termination options. We determine the lease classification as either operating or financing at lease commencement, which governs the pattern of expense recognition and presentation in our consolidated financial statements. Our current lease portfolio only includes operating leases.
We recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding lease liability at lease commencement for leases with terms exceeding twelve months. Short-term leases with terms of twelve months or less are not recognized on the consolidated balance sheet and lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term.
The values of the ROU assets and lease liabilities are calculated based on the present value of the fixed payment obligations over the lease term, using our incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”), determined at lease commencement. The IBR reflects the rate of interest we would expect to pay on a secured basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. The IBR incorporates the term and economic environment of the respective lease arrangements.
8
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
We have elected to account for lease and non-lease components together as a single lease component and include fixed payment obligations related to such non-lease components in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities. Fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments can include index-based lease payments, real estate taxes, maintenance costs, utilization charges and other non-lease services paid to lessors and are not determinable at lease commencement. Variable lease payments are not included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period incurred.
Net Income per Share and Weighted Average Shares
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period.
Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period after giving effect to potential dilutive common shares resulting from the assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units. All common share equivalents were included in the calculation of diluted net income per share in the periods included in the consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for both financing and operating leases and requires additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding leasing arrangements. We adopted ASU 2016-02 and its amendments effective July 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective transition approach, which does not require modifications to periods prior to the date of initial application. We utilized certain permitted practical expedients intended to ease

transition to the new standard, including carrying forward the original lease classifications without reassessment. We did not use hindsight in our assessment of lease terms as of the effective date. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 on July 1, 2019, we recognized initial ROU assets and lease liabilities of $18,576 and $19,368 respectively, on the consolidated balance sheet. The difference in the amounts of the ROU assets and lease liabilities recognized relates to landlord incentives and deferred rent. An adjustment to opening retained earnings was not required, and the recognition of lease expense in the consolidated statements of operations did not change significantly. Refer to “Note 7—Leases” for further information.

Acquisition
In August 2019, we acquired the business and assets of Osprey Biotechnics, Inc. (“Osprey”). Osprey is a developer, manufacturer and marketer of microbial products and bioproducts for a variety of applications serving animal health and nutrition, environmental, industrial and agricultural customers. The business is included in the Animal Health segment.
We acquired assets used in Osprey’s business, including intellectual property, working capital and property, plant and equipment, for an aggregate cash payment at closing of $54,560, subject to certain customary adjustments. The agreement also includes a future additional payment to be determined based on Osprey’s financial performance for the year ending June 30, 2021. We recorded a $7,553 liability for the estimated future payment. The additional payment will be no less than $4,840 and has no maximum limit.
We accounted for the acquisition as a business combination in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 805, Business Combinations. Pro forma information giving effect to the acquisition has not been provided because the results are not material to the consolidated financial statements. The preliminary fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date were:

We may further refine the determination of certain assets during the measurement period. The definite-lived intangible assets relate to trade names, developed products and customer relationships and will be amortized over estimated useful lives ranging from five to twelve years. The preliminary amount of goodwill has been allocated to our Animal Health segment and is deductible for tax purposes.

Statements of Operations—Additional Information
We develop, manufacture and market a broad range of products for food animals including poultry, swine, beef and dairy cattle and aquaculture. The products help prevent, control and treat diseases, enhance nutrition to help improve health and contribute to balanced mineral nutrition. The animal health and mineral nutrition products are sold directly to integrated poultry, swine and cattle integrators and through commercial animal feed manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors. The animal health industry and demand for many of the animal health products in a particular region are affected by changing disease pressures and by weather conditions, as product usage follows varying weather patterns and seasons. Our operations are primarily focused in regions where the majority of livestock production is consolidated in large commercial farms.
We have a diversified portfolio of products that are classified within our three business segments—Animal Health, Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products. Each segment has its own dedicated management and sales team.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Animal Health
The Animal Health business develops, manufactures and markets products in three main categories:
•
MFAs and Other: MFAs and other products primarily consist of concentrated medicated products that are administered through animal feeds, commonly referred to as Medicated Feed Additives (“MFAs”). Specific product classifications include antibacterials, which inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria that cause bacterial infections in animals; anticoccidials, which inhibit the growth of coccidia (parasites) that damage the intestinal tract of animals; and other related products.
•
Nutritional Specialties: Nutritional specialty products enhance nutrition to help improve health and performance in areas such as immune system function and digestive health.
•
Vaccines: Our vaccines are primarily focused on preventing diseases in poultry and swine. They protect animals from either viral or bacterial disease challenges. We develop, manufacture and market licensed and autogenous vaccine products and also market adjuvants to vaccine manufacturers. We have developed and market an innovative and proprietary delivery platform for vaccines.
Mineral Nutrition
The Mineral Nutrition business is comprised of formulations and concentrations of trace minerals such as zinc, manganese, copper, iron and other compounds, with a focus on customers in North America. The customers use these products to fortify the daily feed requirements of their livestock’s diets and maintain an optimal balance of trace elements in each animal. We manufacture and market a broad range of mineral nutrition products for food animals including poultry, swine and beef and dairy cattle.
Performance Products
The Performance Products business manufactures and markets a number of specialty ingredients for use in the personal care, industrial chemical and chemical catalyst industries, predominantly in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Net sales by region are based on country of destination.
Deferred revenue was $5,276 and $5,464 as of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities included $1,002 and $965 of the total deferred revenue as of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The deferred revenue resulted primarily from certain customer arrangements, including technology licensing fees and discounts on future product sales. The transaction price associated with our deferred revenue arrangements is generally based on the stand alone sales prices of the individual products or services.
Our customer payment terms generally range from 30 to 120 days globally and do not include any significant financing components. Payment terms vary based on industry and business practices within the regions in which we operate. Our average worldwide collection period for accounts receivable is approximately 60 to 70 days after the revenue is recognized.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we initiated business restructuring activities related to productivity and cost saving initiatives in the Animal Health segment. We recorded pre-tax charges of $6,281 for these activities, including $3,500 related to the termination of a contract manufacturing agreement and $2,781 for employee separation charges. As of June 30, 2019, $691 had been paid.
During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded an additional $425 and paid $1,360 related to employee separation charges. Business restructuring activities during the three months ended September 30, 2019, are summarized in the below table:

Debt
Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities
Pursuant to a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), we have a revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), where we can borrow up to $250,000, subject to the terms of the agreement, and a term A loan with an aggregate initial principal amount of $250,000 (the “Term A Loan,” and together with the Revolver, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities have applicable margins equal to 2.00%, 1.75% or 1.50%, in the case of LIBOR and Eurodollar rate loans and 1.00%, 0.75% or 0.50%, in the case of base rate loans; the applicable margins are based on the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The LIBOR rate is subject to a floor of 0.00%. The Credit Facilities mature on June 29, 2022.
The Credit Facilities require, among other things, the maintenance of (i) a maximum First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and (ii) a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio, each calculated on a trailing four quarter basis, and contain an acceleration clause should an event of default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) occur. As of September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with the financial covenants.
As of September 30, 2019, we had $168,000 in borrowings under the Revolver and had outstanding letters of credit of $3,009, leaving $78,991 available for borrowings and letters of credit under the Revolver. We obtain letters of credit in connection with certain regulatory and insurance obligations, inventory purchases and other contractual obligations. The terms of these letters of credit are all less than one year.
As of September 30, 2019, the interest rates for the Revolver and the Term A Loan were 3.53% and 3.42%, respectively. The weighted-average interest rates for the outstanding revolving credit facilities were 3.70% and 3.68% for the three months ended September 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The weighted-average interest rates for the term loans were 3.48% and 3.43% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
14
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
In July 2017, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on $150,000 of notional principal that effectively converts the floating LIBOR portion of our interest obligation on that amount of debt, to a fixed interest rate of 1.8325% plus the applicable rate. The agreement matures concurrent with the Credit Agreement. We designated the interest rate swap as a highly effective cash flow hedge. For additional details, see “—Derivatives.”

Commitments and Contingencies
Environmental
Our operations and properties are subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations, including those governing pollution; protection of the environment; the use, management, and release of hazardous materials, substances and wastes; air emissions; greenhouse gas emissions; water use, supply and discharges; the investigation and remediation of contamination; the manufacture, distribution, and sale of regulated materials, including pesticides; the importing, exporting and transportation of products; and the health and safety of our employees (collectively, “Environmental Laws”). As such, the nature of our current and former operations exposes us to the risk of claims with respect to such matters, including fines, penalties, and remediation obligations that may be imposed by regulatory authorities.
16
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Under certain circumstances, we might be required to curtail operations until a particular problem is remedied. Known costs and expenses under Environmental Laws incidental to ongoing operations, including the cost of litigation proceedings relating to environmental matters, are included within operating results. Potential costs and expenses may also be incurred in connection with the repair or upgrade of facilities to meet existing or new requirements under Environmental Laws or to investigate or remediate potential or actual contamination and from time to time we establish reserves for such contemplated investigation and remediation costs. In many instances, the ultimate costs under Environmental Laws and the time period during which such costs are likely to be incurred are difficult to predict.
While we believe that our operations are currently in material compliance with Environmental Laws, we have, from time to time, received notices of violation from governmental authorities, and have been involved in civil or criminal action for such violations. Additionally, at various sites, our subsidiaries are engaged in continuing investigation, remediation and/or monitoring efforts to address contamination associated with historic operations of the sites. We devote considerable resources to complying with Environmental Laws and managing environmental liabilities. We have developed programs to identify requirements under, and maintain compliance with Environmental Laws; however, we cannot predict with certainty the effect of increased and more stringent regulation on our operations, future capital expenditure requirements, or the cost of compliance.
The nature of our current and former operations exposes us to the risk of claims with respect to environmental matters and we cannot assure we will not incur material costs and liabilities in connection with such claims. Based upon our experience to date, we believe that the future cost of compliance with existing Environmental Laws, and liabilities for known environmental claims pursuant to such Environmental Laws, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) is investigating and planning for the remediation of offsite contaminated groundwater that has migrated from the Omega Chemical Corporation Superfund Site (“Omega Chemical Site”), which is upgradient of Phibro-Tech’s Santa Fe Springs, California facility. The EPA has named Phibro-Tech and certain other subsidiaries of PAHC as potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) due to groundwater contamination from Phibro-Tech’s Santa Fe Springs facility that has allegedly commingled with contaminated groundwater from the Omega Chemical Site. In September 2012, the EPA notified approximately 140 PRPs, including Phibro-Tech and the other subsidiaries, that they have been identified as potentially responsible for remedial action for the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site and for EPA oversight and response costs. Phibro-Tech contends that any groundwater contamination at its site is localized and due to historical operations that pre-date Phibro-Tech and/or contaminated groundwater that has migrated from upgradient properties. In addition, a successor to a prior owner of the Phibro-Tech site has asserted that PAHC and Phibro-Tech are obligated to provide indemnification for its potential liability and defense costs relating to the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site. Phibro-Tech has vigorously contested this position and has asserted that the successor to the prior owner is required to indemnify Phibro-Tech for its potential liability and defense costs. Furthermore, a group of companies that sent chemicals to the Omega Chemical Site for processing and recycling has filed a complaint under CERCLA and RCRA in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against many of the PRPs allegedly associated with the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site (including Phibro-Tech) for contribution toward past and future costs associated with the investigation and remediation of the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site. Due to the ongoing nature of the EPA’s investigation, the preliminary stage of the ongoing litigation and Phibro-Tech’s dispute with the prior owner’s successor, at this time we cannot predict with any degree of certainty what, if any, liability Phibro-Tech or the other subsidiaries may ultimately have for investigation, remediation and the EPA oversight and response costs associated with the affected groundwater plume.
Based upon information available, to the extent such costs can be estimated with reasonable certainty, we estimated the cost for further investigation and remediation of identified soil and groundwater problems at operating sites, closed sites and third-party sites, and closure costs for closed sites, to be

approximately $5,869 and $5,890 at September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively, which is included in current and long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. However, future events, such as new information, changes in existing Environmental Laws or their interpretation, and more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies, may give rise to additional expenditures or liabilities that could be material. For all purposes of the discussion under this caption and elsewhere in this report, it should be noted that we take and have taken the position that neither PAHC nor any of our subsidiaries is liable for environmental or other claims made against one or more of our other subsidiaries or for which any of such other subsidiaries may ultimately be responsible.
Claims and Litigation
PAHC and its subsidiaries are party to a number of claims and lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business including product liabilities, payment disputes and governmental regulation. Certain of these actions seek damages in various amounts. In many cases, such claims are covered by insurance. We believe that none of the claims or pending lawsuits, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.
10.
Derivatives
We monitor our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates and from time-to-time use derivatives to manage certain of these risks. We designate derivatives as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of the cash flows to be received or paid in the future related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge). All changes in the fair value of a highly effective cash flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
We routinely assess whether the derivatives used to hedge transactions are effective. If we determine a derivative ceases to be an effective hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting in the period of the assessment for that derivative, and immediately recognize any unrealized gains or losses related to the fair value of that derivative in the consolidated statements of operations.
We record derivatives at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. For additional details regarding fair value, see “—Fair Value Measurements.”
We entered into an interest rate swap agreement on $150,000 of notional principal that effectively converts the floating LIBOR portion of our interest obligation on that amount of debt, to a fixed interest rate of 1.8325% plus the applicable rate. The agreement matures concurrent with the Credit Agreement. The forecasted transactions are probable of occurring, and the interest rate swap has been designated as a highly effective cash flow hedge.
We entered into foreign currency option contracts to hedge cash flows related to monthly inventory purchases. The individual option contracts mature monthly through June 2021. The forecasted inventory purchases are probable of occurring and the individual option contracts were designated as highly effective cash flow hedges.
The following table details the Company’s outstanding derivatives that are designated and effective as cash flow hedges as of September 30, 2019:

Fair Value Measurements
Short-term investments
As of September 30, 2019, our short-term investments consist of cash deposits held at financial institutions. We consider the carrying amounts of these short-term investments to be representative of their fair value.
Current Assets and Liabilities
We consider the carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities to be representative of their fair value because of the current nature of these items.
Contingent Consideration on Acquisitions
We determine the fair value of contingent consideration on acquisitions based on contractual terms, our current forecast of performance factors related to the acquired business and an applicable discount rate.
Letters of Credit
We obtain letters of credit in connection with certain regulatory and insurance obligations, inventory purchases and other contractual obligations. The carrying values of these letters of credit are considered to be representative of their fair values because of the nature of the instruments.
Debt
We record debt, including term loans and revolver balances, at book value in our consolidated financial statements. We believe the carrying value of the debt is approximately equal to its fair value, due to the variable nature of the instruments.
Derivatives
We determine the fair value of derivative instruments based upon pricing models using observable market inputs for these types of financial instruments, such as spot and forward currency translation rates.
Non-financial assets
Our non-financial assets, which primarily consist of goodwill, other intangible assets, property and equipment, and lease-related ROU assets, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and instead are reported at carrying value in the consolidated balance sheet. We assess the carrying values of non-financial assets for impairment on a periodic basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate an asset may not be fully recoverable.

Business Segments
We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on the Animal Health, Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products segments. Certain of our costs and assets are not directly attributable to these segments and we refer to these items as Corporate. We do not allocate Corporate costs or assets to the segments because they are not used to evaluate the segments’ operating results or financial position. Corporate costs include certain costs related to executive management, business technology, legal, finance, human resources and business development.
We evaluate performance of our segments based on Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as income before income taxes plus (a) interest expense, net, (b) depreciation and amortization, (c) (income) loss from, and disposal of, discontinued operations, (d) other expense or less other income, as separately reported on our consolidated statements of operations, including foreign currency gains and losses and loss on extinguishment of debt, and (e) certain items that we consider to be unusual, non-operational or non-recurring.
The accounting policies of our segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies included herein.

Calculation not meaningful
Comparison of three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018
Net sales
Net sales of $189.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, decreased $10.4 million, or 5%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. Animal Health and Mineral Nutrition declined $9.3 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Performance Products grew $1.1 million.
Animal Health
Net sales of $121.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, declined $9.3 million, or 7%. Net sales of MFAs and other declined $12.0 million, or 14%, primarily due to reduced demand related to the effect of African Swine Fever in China. Net sales of MFAs and other also declined in other international regions due to customer order patterns. Net sales of nutritional specialty products grew $3.5 million, or 13%, due to volume growth in poultry and dairy products. The recent Osprey acquisition accounted for approximately one-half of the nutritional specialty sales growth. Net sales of vaccines declined $0.8 million, or 5%. The loss of a domestic distribution arrangement in October 2018 offset volume growth in most regions. Net sales of vaccines would have increased approximately 5%, excluding the loss of the distribution arrangement.
Mineral Nutrition
Net sales of $52.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, decreased $2.2 million, or 4%. Lower average selling prices, correlated with the movement of underlying raw material costs, offset increased volumes.
Performance Products
Net sales of $15.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, increased $1.1 million, or 8%, driven by increased volumes of personal care ingredients, partially offset by lower volume of copper-based products.
25
Gross profit
Gross profit of $57.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, decreased $8.1 million, or 12%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. Gross profit decreased to 30.4% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 32.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The three months ended September 30, 2019, included $0.3 million of acquisition-related cost of goods sold.
Animal Health gross profit decreased $8.5 million due to volume declines and unfavorable product mix in MFAs and other and vaccines, partially offset by volume growth in nutritional specialty products. Mineral Nutrition gross profit increased $0.9 million, as favorable raw material costs and product mix offset the decline in average selling prices. Performance Products gross profit decreased $0.2 million, as increased unit volumes were more than offset by unfavorable manufacturing costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) of $47.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, increased $4.6 million, or 11%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. SG&A for the three months ended September 30, 2019, included $0.4 million of restructuring costs, $0.6 million of stock-based compensation and $0.5 million of acquisition-related transaction costs. SG&A for the three months ended September 30, 2018, included $0.6 million of stock-based compensation. Excluding the effects of these costs, SG&A increased $3.7 million, or 9%.
Animal Health SG&A increased $3.1 million, including increased investments in product development and the effect of the Osprey acquisition. Mineral Nutrition SG&A was comparable to the prior year and Performance Products decreased $0.2 million. Corporate expenses increased $0.8 million due to increased costs of strategic initiatives and public company costs. The restructuring costs, stock-based compensation and acquisition-related costs resulted in a net $0.9 million increase to SG&A.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net of $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, increased $0.6 million, or 21%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by the increase in outstanding borrowings on the Revolver. Interest income from short-term investments was comparable to the prior year.
Foreign currency (gains) losses, net
Foreign currency (gains) losses, net for the three months ended September 30, 2019, amounted to net losses of $3.2 million, as compared to $2.6 million in net gains for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Foreign currency gains and losses primarily arose from intercompany balances and the effects of a currency devaluation in Argentina.
Provision for income taxes
The provision for income taxes was $1.1 million and $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 29.6% and 28.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The provision for income taxes during the three months ended September 30, 2018, included a benefit from the exercise of employee stock options of $0.2 million. The effective income tax rate, without the benefit of the employee stock option exercises, would have been 28.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Net income
Net income of $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, decreased $13.8 million, as compared to net income of $16.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to a $12.7 million decline in operating income coupled with unfavorable foreign currency movements of $5.9 million and increased interest expense of $0.5 million, partially offset
26
by lower income tax expense of $5.3 million. The decline in operating income was driven by an $8.1 million reduction in gross profit, on reduced volumes and unfavorable product mix, and increased SG&A costs of $4.6 million as we continue to invest in product development and strategic growth initiatives.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA of $19.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, decreased $10.4 million, or 35%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. Animal Health Adjusted EBITDA decreased $10.7 million due to reduced sales volumes and the related gross profit decline, coupled with increased SG&A costs for product development and strategic growth initiatives. Mineral Nutrition Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.9 million, driven by increased gross profit. Performance Products Adjusted EBITDA increased $0.1 million. Corporate expenses increased $0.8 million due to increased costs of strategic initiatives and public company costs.

Operating activities
Net cash used by operating activities was $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Cash provided by net income and non-cash items of $12.5 million, including depreciation and amortization, was offset by $16.1 million of cash used in the ordinary course of business for changes in operating assets and liabilities and other items. Accounts payable used $11.8 million of cash due to the timing of payments for inventory purchases. Increased inventories used $9.1 million of cash due to the timing of sales, purchases and production. Accrued expenses and other liabilities used $7.4 million of cash primarily due to timing of payments for professional fees, employee related costs and customer commissions and rebates. Accounts receivable provided $14.1 million of cash due to the timing of sales and collections in international regions.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $62.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Cash used for the Osprey acquisition was $54.6 million. Capital expenditures were $7.7 million as we continued to invest in our existing asset base and for capacity expansion and productivity improvements.
Financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $63.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Net borrowings on our Revolver provided $72.0 million, primarily to fund the cash paid for the Osprey acquisition. We paid $4.9 million in dividends to holders of our Class A and Class B common stock. We paid $3.2 million in scheduled debt and other requirements.
Liquidity and capital resources
We believe our cash on hand, our operating cash flows and our financing arrangements, including the availability of borrowings under the Revolver and foreign credit lines, will be sufficient to support our ongoing cash needs. Our operating plan projects adequate liquidity throughout the year. However, we can provide no assurance that our liquidity and capital resources will be adequate for future funding requirements. We believe we will be able to comply with the terms of the covenants under the Credit Facilities and foreign credit lines based on our operating plan. In the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under the facilities, there can be no assurance we would be able to obtain waivers or amendments. Other risks to our meeting future funding requirements include global economic conditions and macroeconomic, business and financial disruptions that could arise. There can be no assurance that a challenging economic environment or an economic downturn would not affect our liquidity or our ability to obtain future financing. In addition, our debt covenants may restrict our ability to invest.
Certain relevant measures of our liquidity and capital resources follow:

We define working capital as total current assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments) less total current liabilities (excluding current portion of long-term debt). We calculate the ratio of current assets to current liabilities based on this definition.
At September 30, 2019, we had $168.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the Revolver. We had outstanding letters of credit and other commitments of $3.0 million, leaving $79.0 million available for borrowings and letters of credit.
We currently intend to pay quarterly dividends on our Class A and Class B common stock, subject to approval from the Board of Directors. On November 4, 2019, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.12 per share on Class A and Class B common stock outstanding on the record date of
28
November 27, 2019, payable on December 18, 2019. Our future ability to pay dividends will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, our ability to obtain funds from our subsidiaries and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant. Additionally, the terms of our current and any future agreements governing our indebtedness could limit our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions.
As of September 30, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments included $76.3 million held by our international subsidiaries. There are no restrictions on cash distributions to PAHC from our international subsidiaries.
Contractual obligations
As of September 30, 2019, there were no material changes in payments due under contractual obligations from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We do not currently use off-balance sheet arrangements for the purpose of credit enhancement, hedging transactions, investment or other financial purposes.
In the ordinary course of business, we may indemnify our counterparties against certain liabilities that may arise. These indemnifications typically pertain to environmental matters. If the indemnified party were to make a successful claim pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, we would be required to reimburse the loss. These indemnifications generally are subject to certain restrictions and limitations.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is an alternative view of performance used by management as our primary operating measure, and we believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this performance measure. We report Adjusted EBITDA to portray the results of our operations prior to considering certain income statement elements. We have defined EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (i) interest expense, net, (ii) provision for income taxes or less benefit for income taxes, and (iii) depreciation and amortization. We have defined Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (a) (income) loss from, and disposal of, discontinued operations, (b) other expense or less other income, as separately reported on our consolidated statements of operations, including foreign currency gains and losses and loss on extinguishment of debt, and (c) certain items that we consider to be unusual, non-operational or non-recurring. The Adjusted EBITDA measure is not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP reported net income.
The Adjusted EBITDA measure is an important internal measurement for us. We measure our overall performance on this basis in conjunction with other performance metrics. The following are examples of how our Adjusted EBITDA measure is utilized:
•
senior management receives a monthly analysis of our operating results that is prepared on an Adjusted EBITDA basis;
•
our annual budgets are prepared on an Adjusted EBITDA basis; and
•
other goal setting and performance measurements are prepared on an Adjusted EBITDA basis.
Despite the importance of this measure to management in goal setting and performance measurement, Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that has no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, has limits in its usefulness to investors. Because of its non-standardized definition, Adjusted EBITDA, unlike GAAP net income, may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. We present Adjusted EBITDA to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.
We also recognize that, as an internal measure of performance, the Adjusted EBITDA measure has limitations, and we do not restrict our performance management process solely to this metric. A limitation of the Adjusted EBITDA measure is that it provides a view of our operations without including all events during a period, such as the depreciation of property, plant and equipment or amortization of purchased intangibles, and does not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies.
29
Certain significant items
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated prior to considering certain items. We evaluate such items on an individual basis. Such evaluation considers both the quantitative and the qualitative aspect of their unusual or non-operational nature. Unusual, in this context, may represent items that are not part of our ongoing business; items that, either as a result of their nature or size, we would not expect to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis.
We consider acquisition-related activities and business restructuring costs related to productivity and cost saving initiatives, including employee separation costs, to be unusual items that we do not expect to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis. We consider foreign currency gains and losses to be non-operational because they arise principally from intercompany transactions and are largely non-cash in nature.
New accounting standards
We adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), effective July 1, 2019.
For discussion of new accounting standards, see “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards.”
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Not all of these significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. However, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions during the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant estimates include depreciation and amortization periods of long-lived and intangible assets, recoverability of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill, realizability of deferred income tax and value-added tax assets, assessment of the incremental borrowing rates and reasonably certain renewal periods associated with our lease agreements, legal and environmental matters and actuarial assumptions related to our pension plans. These estimates and assumptions impact the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they are determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report. As of September 30, 2019, there have been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies contained therein, other than those related to the adoption of the new lease standard, ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). See “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards” for the changes made to our lease accounting policy.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements discuss our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “outlook,” “potential,” “project,” “projection,” “plan,” “intend,” “seek,” “believe,” “may,” “could,” “would,” “will,” “should,” “can,” “can have,” “likely,” the negatives thereof and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. For example, all statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, revenues, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial
30
results, our plans and objectives for future operations, growth or initiatives, strategies, or the expected outcome or impact of pending or threatened litigation are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected. Examples of such risks and uncertainties include:
•
perceived adverse effects on human health linked to the consumption of food derived from animals that utilize our products could cause a decline in the sales of those products;
•
restrictions on the use of antibacterials in food-producing animals may become more prevalent;
•
a material portion of our sales and gross profits are generated by antibacterials and other related products;
•
competition in each of our markets from a number of large and small companies, some of which have greater financial, research and development (“R&D”), production and other resources than we have;
•
outbreaks of animal diseases could significantly reduce demand for our products;
•
our business may be negatively affected by weather conditions and the availability of natural resources;
•
the continuing trend toward consolidation of certain customer groups as well as the emergence of large buying groups;
•
our ability to control costs and expenses;
•
any unforeseen material loss or casualty;
•
exposure relating to rising costs and reduced customer income;
•
competition deriving from advances in veterinary medical practices and animal health technologies;
•
unanticipated safety or efficacy concerns;
•
our dependence on suppliers having current regulatory approvals;
•
our raw materials are subject to price fluctuations and their availability can be limited;
•
natural and man-made disasters, including but not limited to fire, snow and ice storms, flood, hail, hurricanes and earthquakes;
•
terrorist attacks, particularly attacks on or within markets in which we operate;
•
our ability to successfully implement our strategic initiatives;
•
our reliance on the continued operation of our manufacturing facilities and application of our intellectual property;
•
adverse U.S. and international economic market conditions, including currency fluctuations;
•
failure of our product approval, R&D, acquisition and licensing efforts to generate new products;
•
the risks of product liability claims, legal proceedings and general litigation expenses;
•
the impact of current and future laws and regulatory changes;
•
modification of foreign trade policy may harm our food animal product customers
•
our dependence on our Israeli and Brazilian operations;
•
our substantial level of indebtedness and related debt-service obligations;
•
restrictions imposed by covenants in our debt agreements;
31
•
the risk of work stoppages; and
•
other factors as described in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, are disclosed under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this report in the context of these risks and uncertainties.
We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not contain all of the factors that are important to you. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences we anticipate or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
In the normal course of operations, we are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. As a result, future earnings, cash flows and fair values of assets and liabilities are subject to uncertainty. We use, from time to time, foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps as a means of hedging exposure to foreign currency risks and fluctuating interest rates, respectively. We do not utilize derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We do not hedge our exposure to market risks in a manner that completely eliminates the effects of changing market conditions on earnings, cash flows and fair values. We monitor the financial stability and credit standing of our major counterparties.
For financial market risks related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, reference is made to the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk” section in the Annual Report and to the notes to the consolidated financial statements included therein. There were no material changes in the Company’s financial market risks from the risks disclosed in the Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation as of September 30, 2019, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer each concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting in “Item 9A. Controls and Procedures” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019.
Material Weakness Remediation Efforts
We continue to make further progress in implementing a broad range of changes to our internal control over financial reporting to remediate the material weaknesses described in this item. Our actions to address the material weaknesses have included the design and implementation of additional formal accounting policies and procedures to ensure transactions are properly initiated, recorded, processed,
32
reported, appropriately authorized and approved. Also, our efforts to ensure maintenance of the appropriate level of segregation of duties includes restricting access to key financial systems and records to appropriate users. We continue to make improvements by reducing the number of segregation of duties conflicts and continue to evaluate the extent it is necessary to limit access and modify responsibilities of certain personnel, as well as designing and implementing additional user access controls and compensating controls. We have completed a gap analysis of our key controls. In completing this analysis, we identified areas where new controls were needed and enhancements to existing controls, policies and procedures need to be made. Through this analysis, we have developed a workplan for remediation of our material weaknesses. The remediation plan includes enhancing and supplementing the finance team by increasing the number of roles, reassigning responsibilities, and adding additional resources with an appropriate level of knowledge and experience in internal control over financial reporting commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. We will continue to build on the progress we have made in our remediation plan. We cannot determine when our remediation plan will be fully completed, and we cannot provide any assurance that these remediation efforts will be successful or that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective as a result of these efforts.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
