NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
(In thousands of dollars, except share and per share amounts)

Note 1.                                  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with the interim reporting rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore does not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted.  The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information and actual results could differ from those estimates.  Certain amounts in the prior period have been restated to conform to current period presentation, including the December 31, 2005 balance sheet accounts of Goodwill, Intangibles, Total Assets, Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income, Total Shareholders’ Equity and Total Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity (See Notes 2 and 7 below) and the June 30, 2005 foreign currency translation adjustment (see Note 8 below).  Below are tables that present the balances that have been restated from previously reported amounts due to a correction of an error in accounting for the Company’s historical goodwill and intangible balances:

Balance Sheet Items		December 31, 2005 balance, as reported			Restatement Adjustments			December 31, 2005 balance, restated
Goodwill		$	236,532		$	6,403		$	242,935

In the opinion of MacDermid, Incorporated  and its subsidiaries (collectively “MacDermid” or the “Company”) management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated  financial statements of the interim periods presented contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of MacDermid as of June 30, 2006 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full year and cannot be used to indicate financial performance for the entire year.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction

with the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in MacDermid’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Note 2.                                  Goodwill and Intangible Assets Currency Translation Restatement Adjustments

In the first quarter of 2006, the Company reviewed its foreign currency conversion rates used to convert goodwill and intangible assets. Beginning in 2002, the Company held all goodwill and certain intangible assets related to the acquisition of Canning Ltd. (“Canning intangibles”) constant at historic currency conversion rates, effectively holding the value of goodwill and Canning intangibles constant at 2002 currency conversion rates.  This resulted in an understatement of goodwill and Canning intangibles as of December 31, 2005.  In connection with the Company adopting the provision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, in the first quarter of 2006, the Company restated the December 31, 2005 balances of Goodwill, Intangibles and Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income to correct an error related to foreign currency translation.  As a result, the Company made certain restatement adjustments to the December 31, 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet to state these assets at the correct currency conversion rates.   The Company also restated Other Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 to correct an error related to foreign currency translation (see note 8 below).

Upon further investigation the Company’s management determined that goodwill related to the 1998 acquisition of Canning Ltd. had been pushed-down into the books of the acquisition holding company instead of being pushed-down to the books of the geographic business segments, where it is tested for impairment.  The Company should have allocated the goodwill into the books of the regional business segments benefiting from the acquisition.  The goodwill, however, was pushed-down to, and denominated in British Pounds as opposed to being pushed-down to, and denominated in the currencies of the regions that benefit from the goodwill.

The restatement adjustments necessary to properly convert goodwill and intangible assets are offset with a corresponding restatement adjustment to the Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income section of Shareholders’ Equity in the December 31, 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheet, as described in Notes 7 and 8 below.

These restatement adjustments have no impact on earnings as reported in the Company’s financial statements dated December 31, 2005, or any of the tangible assets and liabilities accounts stated therein.  For financial reporting purposes, the Company treated these restatement adjustments similar to a reclassification of the affected December 31, 2005 balances.

The restatement adjustments to the Company’s Goodwill, Intangible Assets, and Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income are as follows:

Balance Sheet Item		December 31, 2005 balance, as reported			Restatement Adjustments			December 31, 2005 balance, restated
Goodwill		$	236,532		$	6,403		$	242,935
Intangibles, net		40,128			788			40,916
Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income		(10,242		)	7,191			(3,051		)

 

As a result of the above restatement adjustments, the following balance sheet totals changed as follows:

Balance Sheet Totals		December 31, 2005 balance, as reported			Restatement Adjustments			December 31, 2005 balance, restated
Total Assets		$	812,736		$	7,191		$	819,927
Total Shareholders’ Equity		331,886			7,191			339,077
Total Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity		812,736			7,191			819,927

 

As a result of these restatement adjustments, the Company re-performed its goodwill and intangible assets impairment tests for 2005.  The Company added the respective restatement adjustments and compared the adjusted net assets to the discounted cash flows, as calculated in the original impairment test.  The restatement adjustments noted above did not trigger an impairment, and as such, the Company concluded that there is no impairment to its goodwill or intangible assets (including the Canning intangibles) as a result of the above restatement adjustments.

On June 20, 2001, MacDermid issued 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes (“Bond Offering”) due 2011.  Under the Bond Offering the Company is required to perform tests of certain metrics in order to demonstrate that the Company meets

7

---

 

restrictive covenants embedded in the Bond Offering.  As a result of the restatement adjustments noted above, the Company restated its goodwill balances and re-performed the net worth, restricted payment, and indebtedness covenant tests as of December 31, 2005, as calculated in accordance with Bond Offering agreement.  The restatement adjustments noted above did not trigger a default, and as such, the Company concluded that the above restatement adjustments had no impact on its Bond Offering covenant tests as of December 31, 2005.

Note 3.                                  New Accounting Standards

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”).  FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and reporting for uncertainties in income tax law.  This Interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns.  We will adopt this Interpretation in the first quarter of 2007.  The cumulative effects, if any, of applying this Interpretation will be recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption.  The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the expected effect of FIN 48 on its consolidated financial statements and is currently not yet in a position to determine such effects.

In April 2006, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FIN 46(R)-6, “Determining the Variability to Be Considered in Applying FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“FSP FIN 46(R)-6”), that will become effective beginning third quarter of 2006. FSP FIN No. 46(R)-6 clarifies that the variability to be considered in applying FASB Interpretation 46(R) shall be based on an analysis of the design of the variable interest entity.   The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the expected effect of FSP FIN No. 46(R)-6 on its consolidated financial statements and is not yet in a position to determine such effects.

In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3 (“SFAS 154”). This statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and changes required by an accounting pronouncement where no specific transition provisions are included. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. Retrospective application is limited to the direct effects of the change; the indirect effects should be recognized in the period of the change.  The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 154 in the first quarter of 2006.  The adoption of SFAS 154 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 4.                                  Acquisitions

On June 14, 2005, MacDermid acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Autotype International Ltd. and associated entities (“Autotype”) from Norcros Industry (International) Limited of the UK.  The Autotype business acquired is a high technology producer of specialty coated film products for the electronics and printing industries. In electronics, Autotype is a producer of hard coated films for the membrane switch and touch screen markets.  In printing, Autotype provides high quality stencil materials and digital pre-press products for screen printing.  The purchase price was $97,031, net of cash acquired of $4,599.

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the acquired assets and liabilities based on preliminary estimates of the fair values of the assets purchased and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition.  The estimated purchase price allocations are subject to adjustment, generally within one year of the date of acquisition.  Adjustments to the purchase price allocation during the six months ended June 30, 2006 included primarily the working capital revisions and facility consolidation costs described in Note 12.  Allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

The results of operations from the Autotype acquisition were included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements since the acquisition date.

Note 5.                                  Earnings Per Common Share and Other Common Share Information

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated based upon net earnings available for common shareholders. The computation of basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of outstanding common shares.  The computation of diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of outstanding common shares plus the effect of all dilutive contingently issuable common shares from stock options, stock awards and warrants that were outstanding during the period, under the treasury stock method.  For the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, 1,765,726 and 2,418,015, respectively, of options to purchase shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, 2,211,699 and 2,417,983, respectively, of options to purchase shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive

The following table reconciles basic weighted-average common shares outstanding to diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding:

		Three Months Ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
		2006		2005		2006		2005
Basic common shares		30,808,018		30,348,830		30,734,081		30,321,662
Dilutive effect of stock options		594,740		438,999		500,770		477,675
Diluted common shares		31,402,758		30,787,829		31,234,851		30,799,337

 

Note 6.                                  Stock-Based Plans

MacDermid grants stock options and stock awards to Board members and to employees.   Effective January 1, 2006, MacDermid adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”), which requires the use of the fair value method of accounting for all stock-based compensation, including stock options.  SFAS 123(R) was adopted using the modified prospective method of application.  Under this method, in addition to reflecting compensation expense for new share-based awards, expense is also recognized for those awards vesting in the current period based on the value that had been included in pro forma disclosures in prior periods.  Results from prior periods have not been restated.  Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), MacDermid adopted the fair value expense recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation (“SFAS 123”), prospectively, to all stock options granted, modified or settled after April 1, 2001.  Accordingly, compensation expense was measured using the fair value at the date of grant for options granted after April 1, 2001.  The resulting expense is amortized over the period in which the options are earned.    During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, $1,482 and $2,079, respectively, was charged to expense related to stock options.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, $1,873 and $3,915, respectively, was charged to expense related to stock options.

The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used in the option pricing model for stock options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively:

		Three months Ended June 30,						Six months Ended June 30,
		2006			2005			2006			2005
Volatility		28.9		%	31.9		%	28.9		%	31.9		%
Risk-free interest rate		5.07		%	1.60		%	5.07		%	1.60		%
Dividend yield		0.70		%	0.49		%	0.70		%	0.49		%
Expected lives (years)		8.0			6.0			8.0			6.0
Fair value per option granted		$	15.75		$	11.07		$	15.75		$	11.07

 

For all of MacDermid’s stock options, the fair value of each grant was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The expected life of the stock options represents the period of time the stock options are expected to be outstanding and is based on historical trends.

MacDermid has five stock incentive plans under which there are outstanding stock options.  These plans have different terms and features as described below:

In 1996, MacDermid adopted a non-qualified equity incentive plan, approved by the shareholders in July 1995 (the “1995 Plan”).  The 1995 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 900,000 shares.  In February 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Company proposed that the Company’s shareholders consider the following changes to the 1995 plan:

·                  increase the aggregate maximum number of shares that may be granted in any one year from 50,000 to 150,000;

·                  allow the Compensation Committee to place additional restrictions and/or vesting requirements on any award;

·                  shorten the vesting term from four to three years;

·                  increase the retirement age for accelerated vesting from 60 to 65, and

·                  change the pro-rata vesting to one-third per year over the three year vesting period in case of involuntary termination without cause.

The changes above were approved by the Company’s shareholders in May 2006.

All shares of restricted stock issued under this plan must be held and cannot be sold or transferred, except to the Company, for a period of three or four years depending on the date the restricted shares were originally awarded.  The Company recognizes compensation expense for shares issued under this plan equal to the market value of the shares on the date of grant. For stock awards granted prior to 2006, the stock awards are granted at fair market value and the related expense is recognized at the date of grant.  For stock awards granted after January 1, 2006, the stock awards are granted at fair market value and the related expense is recognized over the vesting terms of stock awards.  The amount of expense recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was $160 and $160, respectively.  The amount of expense recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was $0 and $135, respectively.  The following table summarizes stock award activity from December 31, 2005 through June 30, 2006 regarding the Company’s equity incentive plan:

Equity Incentive Plan:		Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested balance at December 31, 2005		11,163		$	28.67
Changes during the period:
Shares granted		76,665		$	34.40
Shares vested		—
Shares forfeited		—
Nonvested balance at June 30, 2006		87,828		$	33.67

 

As of June 30, 2006, there was $2,477 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock awards granted under the Equity Incentive Plan.  That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

Stock Option Plans

The 1992 Plan

In 1993, MacDermid adopted a non-qualified stock option plan, approved by shareholders in July 1992 (the “1992 Plan”).  The 1992 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 2,700,000 shares.  Options granted under the 1992 plan, which vest between four and six years, are generally exercisable at a fixed price that can be as low as two-thirds of the market price at the grant date.  The options are exercisable into restricted shares of common stock, which cannot be sold or transferred, except back to MacDermid at cost, during the four-year period commencing with the exercise date.  In February 2006, MacDermid’s Board of Directors voted to cancel all remaining unissued shares in the 1992 Plan.  As of June 30, 2006, there were 12,065 options outstanding under the 1992 plan.

The 1998 Plan

MacDermid adopted a non-qualified stock option plan, approved by shareholders in July 1999 (the “1998 Plan”).  The 1998 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,500,000 shares.  Options granted under the 1998 Plan generally are exercisable during a ten-year period beginning with the grant date, at a fixed price equal to a one-third-premium over market price at the date of grant.  The options are exercisable into unrestricted shares of common stock, except as otherwise provided, under the terms of the plan, at the time of grant.  In February 2006, MacDermid’s Board of Directors voted to cancel all remaining unissued shares in the 1998 Plan.  As of June 30, 2006, there were 793,400 options outstanding under the 1998 plan.

The 2001 Executive Plan

MacDermid adopted a non-qualified key executive stock option plan, approved by shareholders in July 2001 (the “2001 Executive Plan”).  The 2001 Executive Plan, as amended by MacDermid’s shareholders in 2004, provides for the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares.  Options granted under the 2001 Executive Plan generally are exercisable during a six-year period beginning at the vesting date, which is four years after the grant date.  The options are exercisable into unrestricted shares of common stock, except as otherwise provided at the time of grant.  The options are also subject to an “Index Effect”, which involves two tiers of variability:

·                  The option price is variable, either up or down, based upon the market price at date of grant, adjusted for MacDermid’s stock price performance in comparison to the Standard and Poor’s Specialty Chemicals Index during the six years following the date of grant.  The options initially had exercise prices ranging from $16.75 to $38.65 per share; the exercise prices of these options as of June 30, 2006, now range from $19.72 to $38.65 per share based on Company stock price performance.

·                  The number of options exercisable is variable, either up or down, based upon a multiple either (a) determined by the cumulative percentage of owner earnings growth (defined as cash flow from operations less net capital expenditures), or (b) determined using earnings per share growth during the four year vesting period, based on targets set at the time of grant.  The multiple can range from 50% to 200% of the original shares issued.

As of June 30, 2006, there were 2,724,994 options outstanding under the 2001 Executive plan.

The 2001 Employee Plan

In 2001, the Company adopted a non-qualified all employee stock option plan, approved by shareholders in July 2001 (the “2001 Employee Plan”).  The 2001 Employee Plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares.  Options granted under the 2001 Employee Plan generally are exercisable during a six-year period beginning at the vesting date, which is four years after the grant date, at a fixed price equal to the market price at the date of grant.  The options are exercisable into unrestricted shares of common stock, except as otherwise provided at the time of grant.  In February 2006, MacDermid’s Board of Directors voted to cancel all remaining unissued shares in the 2001 Employee Plan.  As of June 30, 2006, there were 177,160 options outstanding under the 2001 Employee plan.

The 2006 Plan

In February 2006, the Company’s board of directors, adopted a non-qualified all employee stock option plan approved by the Company’s shareholders in May 2006 (the “2006 Plan”).  The 2006 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,100,000 shares.  Options granted under the 2006 Plan generally are exercisable during a four-year period beginning at the vesting date, which is six years after the grant date, at a  price equal to the average of the Company’s closing common stock price for the previous

Note 7.                                  Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In the first quarter of 2006, the Company reviewed its foreign currency conversion rates used to convert goodwill and intangible assets. Beginning in 2002, the Company held all goodwill and certain intangible assets related to the acquisition of Canning Ltd. (“Canning intangibles”) constant at historic currency conversion rates, effectively holding the value of goodwill and Canning intangibles constant at 2002 currency conversion rates.  This resulted in an understatement of goodwill and Canning intangibles as of December 31, 2005.  As a result, the Company has determined that certain restatement adjustments are necessary as described below to state these assets at the current currency conversion rates.

Upon further investigation the Company’s management determined that goodwill related to the 1998 acquisition of Canning Ltd. had been pushed-down into the books of the acquisition holding company instead of being pushed down to the books of the geographic business segments, where it is tested for impairment.  The Company should have allocated the goodwill into the books of the regional business segments benefiting from the acquisition.  The goodwill, however, was “pushed down” to, and denominated in British Pounds as opposed to being pushed-down to, and denominated in the currencies of the regions to which the goodwill benefits.

Acquired intangible assets as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, are as follows:

 

 

In February 2006, the Company re-evaluated the value assigned to Autotype’s intangible assets and the revised valuation increased the value of the technology know-how intangible asset by $2,145.  This amount was deducted from Goodwill and charged to the intangible asset account.  In March 2006, the Company notified employees in Autotype’s Kvistgaard, Denmark facility that the plant would be relocated to Wantage, England, and added $369 to goodwill pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force No. 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination (“EITF 95-3”) related to employee severance benefits.  In March 2006, Goodwill was reduced by an adjustment of $135 to true-up severance costs related to Autotype’s Schaumberg, Illinois plant.  In June 2006, the Company recorded an additional amount of $890 to goodwill related to the closure of Autotype’s Kvistgaard, Denmark facility in accordance with EITF 95-3 related to the facility closure.  The Company also recorded in June 2006 an amount of $180 to goodwill related to closure of Autotype’s Schaumberg, Illinois plant in accordance with EITF 95-3.

Amortization expense related to amortization of intangible assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, was $1,433 and $2,895, respectively.  Amortization expense related to amortization of intangible assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, was $427 and $836, respectively.  Amortization expense for intangible assets is expected to range from $3,862 to $4,519 over the next five years.

Useful lives for amortizable patents are approximately fifteen years.  Other intangible assets have useful lives of five to fifteen years.

The following table presents the changes in goodwill allocated to the reportable segments for the six months ended June 30, 2006:

Total		$	236,532		$	6,403		$	242,935		$	(246	)	$	8,245		$	250,934

 

Included in the June 30, 2006 amounts above is the allocation of goodwill from the June 2005 Autotype acquisition, which is based on the purchase price allocation and totals $32,776 and $9,453, respectively, for the Advanced Surface Finishing and the Printing Solutions segments.   Included in the December 31, 2005 amounts above is the allocation of goodwill from the June 2005 Autotype acquisition, which is based on the purchase price allocation and totals $33,796 and $8,449, respectively, for the Advanced Surface Finishing and the Printing Solutions segments.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”), stipulates that MacDermid is required to perform goodwill and other intangible asset impairment tests on at least an annual basis and more frequently in certain circumstances.  MacDermid will perform the annual impairment testing for 2006 during the fourth fiscal quarter.  Currently, MacDermid is not aware of any event that occurred since the last impairment testing date that would have caused the Company’s goodwill or intangible assets to become impaired.

Note 8.                                  Other Comprehensive Income

The restatement adjustments necessary to properly convert goodwill and intangible assets are offset with a corresponding restatement adjustment to the Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income section of Shareholders’ Equity as described in Notes 2 and 7 above.  These restatement adjustments have no impact on earnings as reported in the Company’s financial statements dated December 31, 2005, or any of the tangible assets or liabilities.

The components of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, are as follows:

		Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
		2006			2005			2006			2005

Note 9.                                  Segment Reporting

MacDermid operates on a worldwide basis, supplying proprietary chemicals for two distinct segments, Advanced Surface Finishing and Printing Solutions.  These segments are managed separately as each segment has differences in technology and marketing strategies.  Chemicals supplied by the Advanced Surface Finishing segment are used for cleaning, activating, polishing, mechanical plating and galvanizing, electro-plating, phosphatising, stripping and coating, filtering, anti-tarnishing and rust retarding for metal and plastic surfaces associated with automotive and industrial applications. The Advanced Surface Finishing segment also supplies chemicals for etching copper and imprinting electrical patterns for various electronics applications and lubricants and cleaning agents associated with offshore oil and gas operations.  The products supplied by the Printing Solutions segment include offset printing blankets and photo-polymer plates used in packaging and newspaper printing, offset printing applications, and digital printers and related supplies.  Net sales for all of our products fall into one of these two business segments.

The results of operations for each business segment include certain corporate operating costs which are allocated based on the relative burden each segment bears on those costs.  Identifiable assets for each business segment are reconciled to total consolidated assets including unallocated corporate assets.  Unallocated corporate assets consist primarily of deferred tax

The estimated net periodic benefit cost for other postretirement benefits was $126 and $252, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006.  The estimated net periodic benefit cost for other postretirement benefits was $160 and $320, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005.

MacDermid previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005, that the Company expects to contribute $9,000 to MacDermid’s pension plans in 2006.  During the first quarter of 2006, the Company increased the 2006 expected contribution amount to $12,000.  As of June 30, 2006, $5,896 of contributions have been made.  The current portion of pension and postretirement benefit plans is included in other current liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

In May 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. 106-2 (“FSP 106-2”), “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003” (the “Medicare Act”). The Medicare Act provides for certain federal subsidies on drug benefits in retiree health plans. In the third quarter of fiscal 2004, MacDermid adopted FSP 106-2, and, at that time, the Company was unable to assess the impact to our financial statements from the adoption because the legislation related to the exact calculation of a Federal subsidy for qualifying plans had not been finalized.  On January 21, 2005, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services released final regulations on the requirements and operational mechanics for employers filing to receive the 28% federal subsidy. The impact of the finalized regulations was insignificant to the Company’s post-retirement medical plan obligations and expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

Note 12.                            Contingencies, Environmental and Legal Matters

Environmental Issues:

MacDermid is a manufacturer and distributor of specialty chemical products, and is therefore exposed to the risk of liability or claims with respect to environmental cleanup or other matters, including those in connection with the disposal of hazardous materials.  The Company is subject to extensive domestic and foreign laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and worker health and safety, including those governing discharges of pollutants into the air and water, the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes, and the cleanup of contaminated properties.  The Company has

16

---

 

incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs and capital expenditures in complying with these laws and regulations. Significant additional costs could be incurred, including cleanup costs, fines, sanctions, and third-party claims, as a result of violations of or liabilities under environmental laws.  To ensure compliance with applicable environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, the Company maintains a disciplined environmental and occupational safety and health compliance program, which includes conducting regular internal and external audits at Company plants to identify and categorize potential environmental exposure.

Asset Retirement Obligations:

Asset retirement obligations are based principally on legal and regulatory requirements. At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 the Company has accrued $1,476 and $1,404, respectively, for its asset retirement obligation for properties where the Company can make a reasonable estimate of the future cost.  On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions; however, actual amounts could differ from those based on such estimates and assumptions. Changes in the estimate during three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, were not significant.

Environmental Remediation:

As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, $2,715 and $2,715, respectively, was reserved for various environmental matters. Ultimate costs may vary from current estimates and reserves, and the discovery of additional contaminants at these or other sites, or the imposition of additional cleanup obligations, or third-party claims relating thereto, could result in significant additional costs.

The following summary provides some details regarding the Company’s environmental liabilities:

·                  MacDermid is named as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) at two Superfund sites (Fike-Artel in Nitro, West Virginia, and Solvents Recovery in Southington, Connecticut), in which many other PRPs are also involved.  With respect to both of these sites, the Company has entered into cost sharing agreements that result in costs of less than $10 per year for funding MacDermid’s share of the ongoing cleanup costs at each site. No reserve has been established, given the deminimus nature of the costs. The Company’s cost sharing percentage at each site is 0.2%.  On October 31, 2005, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) notified the Company of alleged deminimus responsibility for certain contamination at the Mercury Refining Site in New York.  MacDermid entered into a settlement agreement with the EPA to resolve this deminimus liability for a payment of $1.

·                  Some of the Company’s facilities have an extended history of chemical and industrial activity. The Company is directly involved in the remediation of sites that have environmental contamination arising from its operations. These sites include certain sites such as the Kearny, New Jersey and Waukegan, Illinois sites, which were acquired in the December 1998 acquisition of W. Canning plc.  With respect to the Kearny, New Jersey site, the Canning subsidiary withheld, under the Acquisition Agreement, a deferred purchase price payment of approximately $1,600. Clean-up costs at these sites are estimated to be between $2,000 and $5,000. The owners of the Kearny, New Jersey site have primary responsibility for clean-up costs that exceed the deferred purchase price.  Investigations into the extent of contamination at these sites are, however, ongoing.

·                  MacDermid is in the process of characterizing contamination at the Huntingdon Avenue, Waterbury, Connecticut site, which was closed in the quarter ended September 30, 2003.  The extent of required remediation activities at the Huntingdon Avenue site has not yet been determined; however, the Company does not anticipate that it will be materially affected by the environmental remediation costs.

Legal Proceedings:

From time to time there are various legal proceedings pending against the Company.  MacDermid considers all such proceedings to be ordinary litigation incident to the nature of our business.  Certain claims are covered by liability insurance.  MacDermid believes that the resolution of these claims, to the extent not covered by insurance, will not individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations.  To the extent reasonably estimable, reserves have been established regarding pending legal proceedings.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, MacDermid recognized restructuring charges in the amount of $622 and $2,107, respectively, related to employee severance and other charges.  There were no restructuring charges recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005.

During the first quarter 2006, MacDermid’s implemented restructuring plans related to the operations of the US MPS business unit.  In the first quarter of 2006, MacDermid recorded restructuring charges of $601 against earnings which consists entirely of employee severance costs related to the reduction of thirteen management, sales and administrative position reductions in the US MPS business unit.  Of the initial restructuring amount of $601, the Company paid $349 as of June 30, 2006, and expects to pay the remainder in the second half of 2006.

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2006, the Company continued its efforts to maximize synergies related to the Autotype acquisition by announcing the relocation of the Autotype’s Kvistgaard, Denmark facility to an existing facility in Wantage, England.  The closure of the Autotype Denmark facility impacts twenty one employees in manufacturing, administrative, and managerial roles.  Total severance benefits of $369 were charged to goodwill during the first quarter 2006 under Emerging Issues Task Force No. 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination (“EITF 95-3”).  An additional $583 in costs related to the Autotype acquisition not qualifying for purchase accounting treatment was charged to the income statement during the first quarter of 2006.  During the second quarter of 2006, the Company completed the relocation of Autotype’s Kvistgaard, Denmark facility.  The plant in Kvistgaard, Denmark was closed and production was transferred to Autotype’s existing facility in Wantage, England.  During the three months ended June 30, 2006, $890 was charged to goodwill, in accordance with EITF 95-3, in connection with the closure of Autotype’s Denmark facility, these costs included lease restoration costs, severance payments and asset write-offs.  During the three months ended June 30, 2006 $401 charged to restructuring expense for stay bonus payments and moving costs for manufacturing equipment relocated to Autotype’s Wantage, England facility.

During the second quarter of 2006, the Company completed the relocation of Autotype’s Schaumburg, Illinois facility to the Company’s existing facility in Middletown, Delaware.  In connection with this relocation $180 of lease restoration costs were charged to goodwill in the second quarter of 2006 in accordance with EITF 95-3.

During the first quarter of 2006 the Company proceeded with plans to merge Autotype’s Singapore plant into an existing ASF facility in Singapore.  The amalgamation of these facilities will not include employee severance, and as such most costs associated with the merger do not qualify as purchase accounting costs and were expensed.  During the first quarter of 2006, a charge of $195 was recorded to the income statement related to equipment relocation related to this consolidation initiative.  During the second quarter of 2006, a charge of $98 was recorded to the income statement related to equipment relocation related to this consolidation initiative.

The activity in the accrued restructuring balances related to all of the plans described above was as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2006, by segment:

Note 14.                            Loss on Disposal

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, MacDermid recorded a loss on disposal of $0 and $2,224, respectively, related to two separate dispositions.  The first disposal related to MacDermid Equipment (“MEI”), a small equipment manufacturing unit that supported the Company’s electronics sales.  In 2001, the Company wrote off all the inventory on MEI’s balance sheet.  Inventory was the only significant asset on MEI’s books, and the write off effectively impaired the Company’s investment in the subsidiary.  In February of this year, the Company sold the subsidiary for one dollar and recorded a loss on disposal of assets of $1,664, which reduced the Company’s first quarter 2006 tax rate.  The second

disposal related to a dormant international business unit that was disposed in the first quarter of 2006.  A loss on disposal of assets of $560 was recorded in the first quarter 2006 related to this dormant business unit.

Note 15.                            Subsequent Events

In July 2006, the Company sold an idle manufacturing plant located in Franklin Park, Illinois for $1,588 and will recognize a gain related to this sale of approximately $585 in the third quarter of 2006.

In July 2006, the Company reached an agreement with the city council of Birmingham, England to cease manufacturing operations at the facility located in Birmingham, England.  In connection with this agreement the city council of Birmingham agreed to pay the Company 3,000 British pounds immediately and another 1,000 British pounds within three years, after manufacturing operations have ceased at this location.  The Company is currently in the process of investigating environmental liabilities at this site in connection with the agreement, and does not expect to record a material gain or loss related to the closing of this manufacturing facility.

Note 16.                            Guarantor Financial Statements

MacDermid, Inc. (“Issuer”) issued 9 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes (“Bond Offering”) effective June 20, 2001, for the face amount of $301,500, which pay interest semiannually on January 15th and July 15th and mature in 2011.  The proceeds were used to pay down existing long-term debt.  This Bond Offering is guaranteed by substantially all existing and future directly or indirectly 100% owned domestic restricted subsidiaries of MacDermid, Inc. (“Guarantors”).  The Guarantors, fully, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the performance and payment when due of all the obligations under the Bond Offering.  MacDermid’s foreign subsidiaries (“Non-Guarantors”) are not guarantors of the indebtedness under the Bond Offering.

Under MacDermid’s Bond Offering, the Company has several covenants that relate to the Company’s fixed charge ratio (as defined in the Bond Offering agreement), asset sales, incurrence of additional indebtedness, and restricted payments. The restricted payment covenant is used to measure the amount of dividends, share repurchases, and extraordinary repayments of debt that MacDermid may undertake. The covenant provides for a basket, with respect to, the above mentioned items. The basket is created by taking the aggregate of 50% of net income (or 100% of any net loss, adjusted for non-cash charges) since June 2001 to present. When dividend payments are made, they are charged against the basket.  As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, MacDermid had $94,529 and $81,972, respectively, available for future restricted payments.  The net assets of the Guarantors are restricted and may not be transferred to anyone other than the Issuer or another Guarantor without the consent of the Trustee of the Bond Offering, subject to specified baskets.  Thus the net assets of the Guarantors can be transferred to the Issuer or other Guarantors within the group freely, but cannot be transferred outside the group of Guarantors and the Issuer without the consent of the Trustee of the Bond Offering, subject to certain baskets.

In connection with the restatement adjustments made to goodwill, intangibles and accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as described in Notes 2, 7 and 8 above, the Company recalculated certain ratios whose components changed as a result of these restatement adjustments.  The Company restated its goodwill balances and re-performed the net worth, restricted payment, and indebtedness covenant tests as of December 31, 2005, as calculated in accordance with Bond Offering agreement.  The restatement adjustments noted above did not trigger a default, and as such, the Company concluded that the above restatement adjustments had no impact on its Bond Offering covenant tests as of December 31, 2005.

Certain amounts in the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2005 were restated.  The restatement adjustments necessary to properly convert goodwill and intangible assets are offset with a corresponding restatement adjustment to the Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income section of Shareholders’ Equity in the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2005. The equity method was used by MacDermid with respect to investments in subsidiaries for these financial statements.  The equity method also has been used by subsidiary guarantors with respect to investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries.  Financial statements for subsidiary guarantors are presented as a combined entity.  The financial information includes certain allocations of revenues and expenses based on management’s best estimates, which are not necessarily indicative of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows that these entities would have achieved on a stand-alone basis.  Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

The following financial information sets forth our Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005; the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Earnings for the three and six months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005; and the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005:
