NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- ------------------------------------------
These interim statements and management's related discussion and analysis should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and their
related notes, and management's discussion and analysis of results of operations
and financial condition included in the Company's 2002 Annual Report to
Shareholders. These interim statements are unaudited. In the opinion of the
Company's management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods have been made.
STOCK PLANS:
The Company applies the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and
related interpretations in accounting for its stock plans. No compensation
expense for stock options is reflected in net earnings, as all options granted
under such plans have an exercise price not less than the market value of the
common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on
net income and net income per share if the Company had applied the fair value
recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
for the period presented:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Dollars in thousands except per share amounts) March 31, March 31,
2003 2002
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net income, as reported $32,017 $41,947
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense
determined under fair value method for all stock option
awards, net of related tax effects 3,114 5,229
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pro-forma net income $28,903 $36,718
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net income per share:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic - as reported $ 0.34 $ 0.44
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic - pro-forma $ 0.31 $ 0.39
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diluted - as reported $ 0.34 $ 0.44
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Diluted - pro-forma $ 0.30 $ 0.38
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These pro-forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures because
the estimated fair value of stock options is amortized to expense over the
vesting period, and additional options may be granted in future years.
NET INCOME PER SHARE:
Options to purchase 4,917,152 shares and 2,721,001 shares were outstanding for
the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively, but were not included in the
computation of diluted net income per share because the options' exercise prices
were greater than the average market price of the common shares in the
respective periods.

NONRECURRING AND OTHER CHARGES:
As described in Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in the Company's 2002 Annual Report to Shareholders, in October 2000,
the Company announced a significant reorganization, including management
changes, consolidation of production facilities and related actions.
The Company recorded nonrecurring pre-tax charges of $20.4 million in the first
quarter of 2003; essentially all elements of the charges relate to employee
terminations. The Company eliminated over 150 positions, principally in its
North America, Europe and Asia Pacific operating regions. The pre-tax
nonrecurring charges recorded for the first quarter 2003 relate to operations in
North America including corporate ($12.8 million), Europe ($4.9 million), Latin
America ($0.3 million) and Asia Pacific ($2.4 million).
At the time the reorganization was announced, the Company expected to incur
approximately $90 million to $100 million in related pre-tax costs; certain
actions remain to be taken during the course of 2003, and the Company
anticipates that total expected pre-tax costs will now approximate $110 million.
The increase in anticipated costs is due to a combination of additional actions
now contemplated under the reorganization, and the impact of the weaker US
dollar to the extent such actions take place outside the United States. To date,
the Company has recorded approximately $94 million of the expected pre-tax
charges.

The balance of the liabilities will be utilized by 2005 in connection with the
final decommissioning and disposal of affected equipment and as severance and
other benefit obligations to affected employees are satisfied.
The Company has established accruals relating primarily to employee separation
costs, facility closure costs and other actions relating to the integration of
certain BBA operations into IFF. Costs associated with these integration actions
were recognized as a component of the purchase accounting which resulted in an
adjustment to goodwill; such costs did not directly impact current earnings.

=================== =====================
At March 31, 2003, commercial paper maturities did not extend beyond May 14,
2003. During the first quarter, the Company repurchased $149 million of its
6.45% Notes that were to mature in 2006. In early April 2003, the Company
repurchased an additional $51 million of the Notes; this amount is included in
the current portion of long-term debt. All repurchases were funded with
commercial paper. At March 31, 2003, the weighted average interest rate on total
borrowings was 3.4% compared to 3.7% at December 31, 2002.
As a result of premiums paid for the notes repurchased in the first quarter
2003, the Company incurred a pre-tax loss of $2.7 million included in Other
(income) expense. The Company will record an additional loss approximating $1.6
million in the second quarter 2003 as a result of the repurchase of notes in
April.

SUBSEQUENT EVENT
- ----------------
On May 12, 2003, the Company reached agreement to sell its New York
headquarters; the transaction is expected to close in June 2003, at which time
the Company will enter into a long-term lease with respect to the space it
currently occupies (approximately 40% of the buildings).
Proceeds from the sale, expected to approximate $90 million, will be used to
reduce short-term borrowings. The anticipated gain on sale will be deferred and
amortized as appropriate over the initial lease term, as required under
applicable accounting standards.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINANCIAL CONDITION
-------------------
OPERATIONS
- ----------
First quarter 2003 sales totaled $466.2 million, increasing 5% in comparison to
the prior year quarter. Sales for the first quarter 2002 included $5.1 million
attributable to non-core businesses that the Company disposed of during 2002;
excluding such sales from the 2002 results, first quarter 2003 sales increased
6% in comparison to the prior year. Reported sales for the 2003 quarter
benefited from the strengthening of various currencies, most notably the Euro,
the Japanese Yen and the Australian dollar, in relation to the U.S. dollar; had
exchange rates remained constant, sales for the first quarter 2003 would have
declined approximately 2% in comparison to the prior year quarter. Excluding
those sales attributable to the non-core businesses from the 2002 results, local
currency sales in the first quarter 2003 declined approximately 1% in comparison
to the prior year quarter.
Excluding, for comparative purposes, the sales attributable to non-core
businesses disposed of during 2002; sales for the first quarter 2003 performance
reflected the following:
o North America flavors and fragrance sales declined by 3% and 7%,
respectively; in total the region declined by 5%, reflecting weak
economic conditions and customer efforts to reduce inventory levels.
o Local currency flavor sales in Europe increased 3%, resulting in a 21%
increase in reported dollar sales; fragrance sales declined 2% in local
currency, resulting in a 17% increase in reported dollar sales. Overall,
the region's sales were flat in local currency and increased 19% in
dollars. The local currency flavor performance reflected the benefit of
new wins. Local currency fragrance sales were impacted by an 11% decline
in aroma chemical sales in comparison to the prior year; in the first
quarter 2002, aroma chemical sales had increased 26% in local currency.
o Local currency sales in Asia Pacific were flat, resulting in a 4%
increase in reported dollar sales. Fragrance sales increased 6% in local
currency and 11% in reported dollars. Local currency flavor sales
declined 6% resulting in flat sales in reported dollars. The flavor sales
performance was impacted by continued economic weakness in Japan,
Indonesia and the Philippines.
o Latin America sales declined 5%, mainly due to persistent weakness in
Brazil, Mexico and Venezuela. Fragrance sales declined 4% while flavor
sales declined 9%.
o India sales increased 18% in local currency and 22% in dollars. This
performance was led by a 20% local currency increase in fragrances;
flavor sales increased 16% in local currency. The performance reflected
the benefit of many new wins in both flavors and fragrances in the
region.
The percentage relationship of cost of goods sold and other operating expenses
to sales for the first three months 2003 and 2002 are detailed below.
FIRST THREE MONTHS
------------------
2003 2002
---- ----
Cost of Goods Sold 58.0% 58.3%
Research and Development Expenses 8.4% 7.9%
Selling and Administrative Expenses 16.3% 16.9%
Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, decreased from the prior year
primarily due to favorable sales mix.
Research and development expenses were somewhat higher due to increased
activities in this area. Research and Development expenses are expected to
approximate 8% of sales on a full year basis. Selling and administrative
expenses declined as a percentage of sales as a result of reorganization
activities.
10
Other expense in the quarter amounted to $2.5 million primarily due to a $2.7
million loss on the repurchase of $149 million of the 6.45% Notes. Other
(income) expense totaled $2.0 million of income in the first quarter of 2002,
primarily due to exchange gains in Argentina; in 2003, there were no significant
exchange gains or losses in the quarter.
Interest expense declined from 2002 due to reduced borrowing levels, the general
decline in interest rates and the continuing benefits of the US dollar and Yen
interest rate swaps the Company has entered into. The average interest on
borrowings during the first quarter 2003 was 3.4% compared to 3.7% in the 2002
first quarter.
The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2003 was 31.2% compared to 34.3%
for the comparable 2002 quarter. The 2003 effective rate reflects the benefit of
the nonrecurring charges taken in the quarter; many of these charges were taken
in high tax jurisdictions, including the United States. Excluding the tax
benefit of the nonrecurring charges, the effective tax rate for the quarter
would have been 32%.
NONRECURRING AND OTHER CHARGES:
- -------------------------------
As described in Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in the Company's 2002 Annual Report to Shareholders, in October 2000,
the Company announced a significant reorganization, including management
changes, consolidation of production facilities and related actions.
The Company recorded nonrecurring pre-tax charges of $20.4 million in the first
quarter of 2003; essentially all elements of the charges relate to employee
terminations. The Company eliminated over 150 positions, principally in its
North America, Europe and Asia Pacific operating regions. The pretax
nonrecurring charges recorded for the first quarter 2003 relate to operations in
North America including corporate ($12.8 million), Europe ($4.9 million), Latin
America ($0.3 million) and Asia Pacific ($2.4 million).
At the time the reorganization was announced, the Company expected to incur
approximated $90 million to $100 million in related pre-tax costs; certain
actions remain to be taken during the course of 2003, and the Company
anticipates that total expected pre-tax costs will now approximate $110 million.
The increase in anticipated costs is due to a combination of additional actions
now contemplated under the reorganization, and the impact of the weaker US
dollar to the extent such actions take place outside the United States. To date,
the Company has recorded approximately $94 million of the expected pre-tax
charges.
Movements in the liabilities related to the nonrecurring charges were as follows
(in millions):
EMPLOYEE- ASSET-RELATED
RELATED AND OTHER TOTAL
---------- ------------- -------
Balance December 31, 2002 $ 3.4 $ .4 $ 3.8
Additional charges 19.6 .8 20.4
Cash and other costs (1.8) -- (1.8)
------- ------ -------
Balance March 31, 2003 $ 21.2 $ 1.2 $ 22.4
======= ====== =======
The balance of the liabilities will be utilized by 2005 in connection with the
final decommissioning and disposal of affected equipment and as severance and
other benefit obligations to affected employees are satisfied.
The Company has established accruals relating primarily to employee separation
costs, facility closure costs and other actions relating to the integration of
certain BBA operations into IFF. Costs associated with these integration actions
were recognized as a component of the purchase accounting which resulted in an
adjustment to goodwill; such costs did not directly impact current earnings.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $16.3 million at March
31, 2003. Working capital, at March 31, 2003 was $330.1 million compared to
$507.3 million at December 31, 2002. The change in working capital is a direct
result of the repurchase of a portion of the Company's 6.45% five year Notes
which was financed with commercial paper. This transaction is discussed in more
detail below. Gross additions to property, plant and equipment during the first
three months of 2003 were $11.3 million.
At March 31, 2003, the Company's outstanding commercial paper had an average
interest rate of 1.5%. Commercial paper maturities did not extend beyond May 14,
2003. Bank borrowings were $20.2 million.
During the first quarter, the Company repurchased $149 million of its 6.45%
Notes that were to mature in 2006. In early April 2003, the Company repurchased
an additional $51 million of the Notes; this amount is included in the current
portion of long-term debt. All repurchases were funded with commercial paper. At
March 31, 2003, the weighted average interest rate on total borrowings was 3.4%
compared to 3.7% at December 31, 2002.
As a result of premiums paid for the notes repurchased in the first quarter
2003, the Company incurred a pre-tax loss of $2.7 million included in Other
(income) expense. The Company will record an additional loss approximating $1.6
million in the second quarter 2003 as a result of the repurchase of notes in
April.
The Company amended its interest rate swaps on two occasions during the first
quarter 2003. The first amendment reduced the notional amount of the swaps from
$700 million to $500 million in anticipation of the Company's debt repurchase
initiative. The second swap amendment reduced the notional value of the swaps to
$350 million. In May 2003, the Company eliminated all remaining swaps related to
these Notes. On elimination of the floating rate swaps, the interest rate on the
6.45% coupon rate Notes was effectively fixed for the balance of their term at
approximately 3.2%.
In January 2003, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $.15 per share to
shareholders. This amount is unchanged from the 2002 quarterly dividend. The
Company repurchased approximately 0.6 million shares in the first quarter 2003.
Repurchases will be made from time to time on the open market or through private
transactions as market and business conditions warrant. The repurchased shares
will be available for use in connection with the Company's employee benefit
plans and for other general corporate purposes. At March 31, 2003, the Company
had approximately $78.0 million authorized under its October 2002 repurchase
plan.
The Company anticipates that its financing requirements will be funded from
internal sources and credit facilities currently in place.

SUBSEQUENT EVENT
- ----------------
On May 12, 2003, the Company reached agreement to sell its New York
headquarters; the transaction is expected to close in June 2003, at which time
the Company will enter into a long-term lease with respect to the space it
currently occupies (approximately 40% of the buildings).
Proceeds from the sale, expected to approximate $90 million, will be used to
reduce short-term borrowings. The anticipated gain on sale will be deferred and
amortized as appropriate over the initial lease term, as required under
applicable accounting standards.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
- ---------------------------
The foregoing discussion of the Company's current results and its commentary
regarding expected future results include and, where indicated, exclude the
impact of nonrecurring charges and the impact of foreign currency on reported
results. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and is not intended to
represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. In discussing its historical
and expected future results and financial condition, the Company believes it is
meaningful for investors to be made aware of the impact that foreign currency
and such specifically identified nonrecurring items have on results and
financial condition.
