NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.  
 Basis of Presentation
 
The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 27, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months and six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007 and the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity and cash flow for the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007 have been prepared by the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 27, 2008 and results of operations and cash flow for all periods presented have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.  The results of operations for the periods ended June 27, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The Company’s fiscal year begins on January 1st and ends on December 31st.  Quarterly periods are based on a 4 weeks - 4 weeks - 5 weeks methodology.  As a result, the first quarter can include a partial or expanded week in the first four week period of the quarter.  Similarly, the last five week period in the fourth quarter could include a partial or expanded week.  Certain subsidiaries operating outside of North America are included for periods beginning and ending one month prior to the period presented, which enables timely processing of consolidating results.  There were no material intervening events that occurred with respect to these subsidiaries in the one month period prior to the period presented.

The Company incurred research & development expenses in the second quarter of 2008 and 2007 of $12.7 million and $11.3 million, respectively. The Company incurred research & development expenses in the first six months of 2008 and 2007 of $24.7 million and $21.6 million, respectively. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, was issued in September 2006 and, except as noted below, is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS No. 157 provides a single definition of fair value to be utilized under other accounting pronouncements that require fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position (“FSP”) No. FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157,” the FASB deferred for one year, the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). SFAS No. 157 enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs (generally, assumptions that market participants would use) used in pricing an asset or liability by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. SFAS No. 157 requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

 
The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and fair values of certain assets and liabilities:

  $ 2,091     $ -     $ 2,091     $ -  
    $ 2,091     $ -     $ 2,091     $ -  
 
The fair value of the deferred compensation asset is characterized as Level 2 since it derives its value from observable investments.

The fair value of the diesel hedge is based on home heating oil future prices for the duration of the contract.

The fair value for the interest rate collars was derived using the forward three month LIBOR curve for the duration of the respective collars and a credit spread.

Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment amounted to $10.9 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively. Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment amounted to $20.4 million and $18.6 million for the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively. Interest charges in the amount of $0.2 million and $0.2 million were capitalized in connection with construction projects for the three months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively.  Interest charges in the amount of $0.3 million and $0.4 million were capitalized in connection with construction projects for the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively. During the first quarter the Company determined that the carrying value of certain property, plant and equipment assets should be written down to zero in accordance with the guidelines of SFAS No. 144.  The write down resulted in a charge of $1.5 million that was principally reflected with selling, general and administration (“SG&A”) expense for the Consumer International segment.

During the second quarter, the Company announced it will be closing its North Brunswick, New Jersey facility in 2009. As a result, the Company recorded an accelerated depreciation charge of $1.1 million (see Note 14).

5.  
Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)
 
Basic EPS is calculated based on income available to common shareholders and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reported period.  Diluted EPS includes additional dilution from potential common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options outstanding and the dilutive effect of convertible debentures.  The weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate Basic EPS is reconciled to those shares used in calculating Diluted EPS as follows:

The average fair value is based upon the Black Scholes option pricing model. The Company determined the options’ life based on historical exercise behavior and determined the options’ expected volatility and dividend yield based on the historical changes in stock price and dividend payments. The risk free interest rate is based on the yield of an applicable term Treasury instrument. Stock compensation expense related to restricted stock awards was $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2008. This expense amounted to $0.2 million for the same period of 2007. Stock compensation expense related to restricted stock awards was $0.3 million in the six months ending June 27, 2008. This expense amounted to $0.2 million for the same period of 2007.

The Company amended the Directors’ deferred compensation plan during the second quarter of 2008 to provide that compensation deferrals credited to a director’s account will be settled in the Company’s stock.  Previously, compensation deferrals consisted of notional investments in Company stock that settled in cash.  This change required a $6.6 million reclassification of the value of the stock from long term liabilities to equity.  Subsequent changes in the fair value of the Company’s stock are not recognized.  The stock settlement obligation is reflected in the weighted average number of basic and diluted shares used for the EPS calculations.

Intangible amortization expense amounted to $4.8 million for the second quarter of 2008 and $4.5 million for the same period of 2007.  Intangible amortization expense amounted to $9.6 million for the first six months of 2008 and $9.0 million for the same period of 2007. The Company estimates that intangible amortization expense will be approximately $19.0 million in the twelve months of 2009, $18.4 million in 2010, $17.9 million in 2011, $17.4 million in 2012, and $16.4 million in 2013.

During the first quarter of 2008, the Company recorded tradename impairment charges of $3.4 million related to Consumer International brands.  These charges are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in this segment and were the result of lower forecasted sales and profitability.  The amount of the impairment charges was determined by comparing the estimated fair value of the asset to its carrying amount.

Effective January 1, 2008 approximately $19.0 million of tradenames previously considered indefinite lived assets were recharacterized as finite lived due to increased competition in their respective categories and are now being amortized over lives ranging from 5 to 15 years.  The lives were determined based upon the estimated future cash flows of these brands.

During the first quarter of 2008, the Company repaid $100.0 million of its accounts receivable securitization facility. In the first six months of 2008, the Company paid approximately $16.9 million of its Term Loan. In April 2008, the accounts receivable securitization facility of $115.0 million was renewed with similar terms to the facility previously in place and with a new maturity date of April 2009.
 
The Company has announced that it will redeem all of its outstanding 5.25% Senior Convertible Debentures due 2033 (the “Debentures”) on August 15, 2008 (the "Redemption Date") at 101.50% of the principal amount of the Debentures plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. The aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding is approximately $99.9 million.
 
In lieu of surrendering the Debentures for cash, holders may elect to convert their Debentures into shares of Company common stock. The conversion rate is 32.26 shares of Company common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures (equivalent to a conversion price of $31.00 per share). Cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. In order to exercise the conversion right, Debentures must be surrendered for conversion prior to the close of business on August 14, 2008. After that time, holders will be entitled only to the redemption price for the Debentures.
 
Shares of Company common stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures are reflected in the Company's diluted earnings per share computation.

11.  
Commitments, contingencies and guarantees

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

b.  
The Company’s distribution of condoms under the TROJAN and other trademarks is regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Certain of the Company’s condoms and similar condoms sold by its competitors contain the spermicide nonoxynol-9 (N-9). The World Health Organization and other interested groups have issued reports suggesting that N-9 should not be used rectally or for multiple daily acts of vaginal intercourse, given the ingredient’s potential to cause irritation to human membranes. In 2005, the FDA issued non-binding draft guidance concerning the labeling of condoms in general and those with N-9 in particular. The Company filed a response recommending alternative labeling to the FDA and has engaged in further discussions with the FDA since that time. While awaiting further FDA guidance, the Company implemented an interim label statement change cautioning against rectal use and more-than-once-a-day vaginal use of condoms with N-9 and launched a public information campaign to communicate these messages to the affected communities. The Company believes that its present labeling for condoms with N-9 is compliant with the overall objectives of the FDA’s draft guidance and that condoms with N-9 will remain a viable contraceptive choice for those couples who wish to use them.  The Company cannot predict the nature of the labeling that ultimately will be required by the FDA. If the FDA or state governments eventually promulgate rules that prohibit or restrict the use of N-9 in condoms (such as new labeling requirements), the Company could incur costs from obsolete products, packaging or raw materials, and sales of condoms could decline, which, in turn, could decrease the Company’s operating income.

c.  
As of June 27, 2008, the Company has commitments to acquire approximately $92.7 million of raw material, packaging supplies and services from its vendors at market prices.

d.  
The Company has $4.5 million of outstanding letters of credit drawn on several banks which guarantee payment for such things as finished goods inventory, insurance claims and one year of rent on a warehouse in the event of the Company’s insolvency.

e.  
In connection with the Company’s October 2003 acquisition of Unilever’s oral care brands in the United States and Canada in October 2003, the Company is required to make additional performance-based payments of a minimum of $5.0 million and a maximum of $12.0 million over the eight year period following the acquisition.  The Company made cash payments of $0.5 million, and accrued a payment of $0.3 million in the first six months of 2008.  The payment and accrual were accounted for as additional purchase price.  The Company has paid approximately $8.6 million, exclusive of the $0.3 million accrual, in additional performance-based payments since the acquisition.

f.  
The Company filed suit against Abbott Laboratories, Inc (“Abbott”) in April 2005 claiming infringement of certain patents resulting from Abbott’s manufacture and sale of its Fact Plus pregnancy diagnostic test kits.  Following a trial in February 2008, the jury found that the Company’s patents were valid and willfully infringed by Abbott during the period from April 1999 through September 2003 and awarded damages to the Company in the amount of $14.6 million. On June 23, 2008, the District Court issued an opinion finding that Abbott’s conduct had been willful and doubled the damages awarded to the Company to $29.2 million before prejudgment interest. There remains a post-trial motion pending with the District Court with respect to the damages awarded at trial. The Company will vigorously contest the motion. In June 2007, Abbott filed suit against the Company claiming infringement of certain patents that are licensed to Abbott, also in relation to pregnancy diagnostic test kits.  The Company intends to continue its vigorous defense of this action.

g.  
The Company, in the ordinary course of its business, is the subject of, or a party to, various pending or threatened legal actions.  The Company believes that any ultimate liability arising from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position.

 
12.  
Related Party Transactions

For the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, the Company invoiced Armand Products Company (“Armand”), which is 50% owned by the Company, $0.8 and $0.8 million, respectively, for administration and management oversight services (which were recorded as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses). Sales of Armand products to the Company over the same periods were $6.2 and $4.2 million, respectively. As of June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, the Company had outstanding accounts receivable from Armand of $0.5 and $1.3 million, respectively. Also, the Company had outstanding accounts payable to Armand of $2.8 and $0.8 million as of June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, respectively.

For the six months ended June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, the Company invoiced The ArmaKleen Company, (“ArmaKleen”), which is 50% owned by the Company, $1.4 and $1.5 million, respectively, for administration and management oversight services (which were recorded as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses). Sales of inventory to ArmaKleen over the same periods were $2.7 and $2.7 million, respectively. As of June 27, 2008 and June 29, 2007, the Company had outstanding accounts receivable from ArmaKleen of $0.6 and $1.1 million, respectively.
 
13.  
Gain on Sale of Business
 
In February 2008, the Company sold its wholly-owned British subsidiary, Brotherton Specialty Products Ltd. (“Brotherton”) for a total of $11.2 million net of fees.  The sale resulted in a pretax gain of $3.0 million, which was included as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Specialty Products Division.
 
14.  
Plant Shutdown
 
On June 5, 2008, the Company announced plans to construct a new integrated laundry detergent manufacturing plant and distribution center in York County, Pennsylvania. Construction is anticipated to begin in September 2008 and the site is scheduled to be operational by the end of 2009. In conjunction with the opening of the new facility, the Company will close its existing laundry detergent manufacturing plant and distribution buildings in North Brunswick, New Jersey.

The Company's existing North Brunswick complex is comprised of five separate buildings which has resulted in significant inefficiencies and does not enable expansion to address expected future growth. The Company plans to provide severance and transition benefits to approximately 300 affected employees at the North Brunswick complex, as well as consideration for employment opportunities at other Company operations.

The Company expects to invest approximately $150.0 million in capital expenditures to build the facility and incur the following cash and non–cash costs relating to the closing of the North Brunswick complex, which are included in Cost of Sales and charged to the Consumer Domestic segment:

Cash Costs
Severance - $5.0 million
Exit and disposal costs - $6.0 million

Non Cash Costs
Accelerated Depreciation - $21.0 million

The severance costs are being recognized ratably over the employees’ respective service requirement. In the second quarter of 2008, the Company accrued $0.3 million.  The exit and disposal costs, which include asset disposition and lease related costs, will not be incurred until late in 2009 and early 2010. As a result, no expense has yet been recognized for these costs. The Company anticipates it will spend approximately $3.0 million in 2009 and the balance primarily in 2010 associated with closing the facilities.

The accelerated depreciation charge is being recognized ratably over the remaining life of the North Brunswick complex. In the second quarter of 2008, the Company recorded a charge of $1.1 million related to the accelerated depreciation.

 
15.  
Segment Information
 
The Company operates three reportable segments: Consumer Domestic, Consumer International and Specialty Products Division (“SPD”).  These segments are determined based on differences in the nature of products and organizational and ownership structures.  The Company also has a Corporate segment.

Consumer International
Primarily personal care products
SPD
Specialty chemical products

The Company had 50% ownership interests in Armand Products Company (“Armand”) and The ArmaKleen Company (“ArmaKleen”) as of June 27, 2008.  The Company’s 50% ownership interest in Esseco U.K. LLP (“Esseco”) was divested as part of the sale of its wholly-owned British subsidiary, Brotherton Specialty Products Ltd. The equity in earnings of Armand and ArmaKleen for the six months ended June 27, 2008 and Esseco for the two months ended February 29, 2008, prior to its sale, is included in the Corporate segment.
