INTRODUCTION
The following filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") by
Borden, Inc. ("the Company") presents four separate financial statements:
Borden, Inc. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Borden, Inc. and
Affiliates Condensed Combined Financial Statements, the Condensed Financial
Statements of Wise Holdings, Inc. ("Wise Holdings") and the Condensed Financial
Statements of Borden Foods Holdings Corporation ("Foods Holdings"). The
consolidated statements present the Company after the effect of the sales of (i)
the Company's former salty snacks business ("Wise") to Wise Holdings and its
subsidiaries and (ii) the Company's former domestic and international foods
business ("Foods") to Foods Holdings and its subsidiaries, as explained in Note
1 to the Condensed Consolidated and Condensed Combined financial statements. The
Company, Wise Holdings, and Foods Holdings are controlled by BW Holdings, LLC
("BWHLLC"). The consolidated financial statements are those of the Company,
which is the SEC Registrant.
The Borden, Inc. and Affiliates ("the Combined Companies") condensed combined
financial statements are included herein to present the Company on a combined
historical basis, including the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows of Wise and Foods. Although not required, the combined financial
statements have been included with the Registrants' SEC filings after the 1996
sales of Wise and Foods as supplemental information to the holders of the
Company's publicly held debt issued prior to the sale of Wise and Foods and
because management of the Company controls significant financial and managerial
decisions with respect to Wise and Foods. The Combined Companies condensed
financial statements do not reflect pushdown accounting and therefore present
financial information on a basis consistent with that on which credit was
originally extended to the Company. In accordance with rule 3-10 of Regulation
S-X, the condensed financial statements of Wise Holdings and Foods Holdings are
included in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q because Wise Holdings
and Foods Holdings are guarantors of the Company's credit facility and all of
the Company's outstanding publicly held debt.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
AND CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Registrant, Borden, Inc. (the "Company") is engaged primarily in
manufacturing, processing, purchasing and distributing a broad range of
products worldwide. The Company's principal line of business is chemicals
("Chemical"), including formaldehyde, melamine, resins, coatings and other
specialty and industrial chemicals. The Company also produces and sells
consumer adhesives and provides infrastructure management services.
The Company's principal lines of business formerly included its
international and domestic foods operations ("Foods") and salty snacks
business ("Wise"). Subsidiaries of BWHLLC, an affiliate of the Company's
parent, together with subsidiaries of Wise Holdings, Inc. ("Wise Holdings")
and subsidiaries of Borden Foods Holdings Corporation ("Foods Holdings")
purchased Wise and Foods on July 2, 1996 and October 1, 1996, respectively.
As a result of these sales, Wise and Foods, as of their respective sale
dates, are no longer legally part of the Company on a consolidated basis,
although Wise Holdings and Foods Holdings provide financial guarantees to
obligations under the Company's credit facility and all of the Company's
outstanding publicly held debt. Additionally, management of the Company
continues to exercise significant operating and financial control over Wise
and Foods. Because of the aforementioned control and guarantees, the
Company has included, supplementally in this filing, the financial
condition and results of operations and cash flows for Borden, Inc. and
Affiliates (the "Combined Companies") consistent with that upon which
credit was originally extended to the Company.
The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated and Condensed
Combined financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of
normal adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a
fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Results for the
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full
year.
2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES AND REALIGNMENT
In April, the Combined Companies sold the milk powder business located in
China for approximately $7.1, which resulted in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $10.8 ($3.5 after tax).
In May, the Company completed the acquisition of Spurlock Industries, Inc.
("Spurlock"), for $40.2 in cash. Spurlock is a formaldehyde and resins
producer primarily for forest products applications, with manufacturing
facilities in Waverly, Virginia, Maalvern, Arkansas, and Moreau, New York.
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
and, accordingly, its results of operations have been included from the
date of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over net tangible assets
("goodwill") was approximately $13.0. The amortization period of the
intangible will be finalized in the third quarter.
In June, the Company finalized a plan for the closure of the Chemical
resins operations in the Philippines by the end of 1999. As part of this
plan, long-lived assets will be disposed of and have been written down to
net realizable value at June 30, 1999 based upon estimated proceeds of
$5.0. This resulted in a charge of $10.0 for the three months ended June
30, 1999 which has been classified as business realignment on the Condensed
Consolidated and Condensed Combined Statements of Operations. This charge
has been reflected as a reduction of accumulated translation adjustments
previously recorded on the balance sheet for the Philippines. Severance and
other costs related to the closure of the Philippines operations will be
recorded when the requirements of EITF 94-3, "Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity",
are met, which is anticipated to be by year end 1999.
20
<PAGE> 21
Subsequent Event
----------------
Early in the third quarter, the Company completed the acquisition of
Blagden Chemicals, Ltd. ("Blagden") for $71.5 in cash. Blagden produces
formaldehyde and resins for forest products, foundry, and industrial
applications at three manufacturing facilities in the United Kingdom and at
a fourth in The Netherlands. The acquisition will be accounted for using
the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, its results of
operations will be included with those of the Company from the date of
acquisition.
3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Decorative Products business was sold on March 13, 1998. Since the
business was a separate segment of the Company's business as defined by
generally accepted accounting principles, the business' results have been
reclassified to discontinued operations in the 1998 statements of
operations and cash flows. A summary of the results included in these
Condensed Consolidated and Condensed Combined financial statements is shown
below.

businesses. The reclassification adjustment in 1999 represents the
accumulated translation adjustment included as part of the charge to close
the Chemical Philippines operation. The reclassification adjustment in 1998
represents the accumulated translation adjustment recognized on the sale of
the Combined Companies' KLIM business.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Foods and BWHLLC, an affiliate of the Company's parent, invest cash not
used in operations with the Company. At June 30, 1999, Foods had $264.6
invested with the Company and BWHLLC had $142.0 invested with the Company.
These balances are reflected as loans payable to unconsolidated affiliates
in the consolidated balance sheet. Loans payable to unconsolidated
affiliates for the Combined Companies includes $142.0 invested by BWHLLC
and $2.9 from an affiliate of the Combined Companies.
The Company provides infrastructure management services to Foods and Wise.
Fees received for these services are offset against the Company's general
and administrative expenses and approximated $2.5 and $3.5 for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and $4.9 and $6.6 for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS - The Company and Combined Companies, like others in
similar businesses, are subject to extensive federal, state and local
environment laws and regulations. Although environmental policies and
practices are designed to ensure compliance with these laws and
regulations, future developments and increasingly stringent regulation
could require the Company and Combined Companies to make additional
unforeseen environmental expenditures.
Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a
liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be
reasonably estimated. Environmental accruals are routinely reviewed on an
interim basis as events and developments warrant. The Company and Combined
Companies have each accrued approximately $18.7 and $19.6 at June 30, 1999
and December 31, 1998, respectively, for probable environmental remediation
and restoration liabilities. This is management's best estimate of these
liabilities, based on currently available information and analysis. The
Company and Combined Companies believe that it is reasonably possible that
costs associated with such liabilities may exceed current reserves by
amounts that may prove insignificant, or by amounts, in the aggregate, of
up to approximately $12.0.
LEGAL MATTERS - The Company and Combined Companies have recorded $10.3 and
$13.8, respectively, in liabilities at June 30, 1999, for legal costs that
they believe are probable and reasonably estimable. These liabilities at
December 31, 1998, totaled $17.6 and $32.1 for the Company and Combined
Companies, respectively. Actual costs are not expected to exceed these
amounts. In addition, the Company and Combined Companies may be held
responsible for certain environmental liabilities incurred at Borden
Chemical and Plastics Limited Partnership facilities, which were previously
owned by the Company. Management believes, based upon the information it
currently possesses, and taking into account its established reserves for
estimated liability and its insurance coverage, that the ultimate outcome
of the foregoing proceedings and actions is unlikely to have a material
adverse effect on the Company's or Combined Companies' financial position
or operating results.
OTHER COMMITMENTS - A wholly owned subsidiary serving as general partner of
Borden Chemicals and Plastics Limited Partnership ("BCP") has certain
fiduciary responsibilities to BCP's unitholders. The Company and Combined
Companies believe that such responsibilities will not have a material
adverse effect on their financial statements.

CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 VERSUS THREE MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 1998
Consolidated Summary
- --------------------
Consolidated net sales decreased $24.5 million or approximately 7% in 1999 to
$343.9 million from $368.4 million in 1998. The net sales decline was primarily
due to lower Chemical net sales related to lower unit pricing, unfavorable
currency exchange rates and the exit of non-core businesses in 1998, partially
offset by improved volumes in the North American Chemical businesses. In
addition, the 1998 divestiture of the commercial and industrial wallcoverings
business, previously classified as "Business held for sale", contributed to the
overall decline in net sales. Operating income improved $5.5 million or
approximately 14% to $46.1 million from $40.6 million in 1998, due primarily to
improved Chemical volumes, the timing of corporate expenses and favorable
settlement of corporate liabilities, partially offset by a $10.0 million charge
related to the closure of the Philippines Chemical operations.
Combined Summary
- ----------------
Combined net sales decreased $63.4 million or 11% to $519.1 million from $582.5
million in 1998. The decline in sales was caused primarily by the divestiture of
Foods Unaligned businesses in 1998, reduction in pasta volumes, and the factors
described above for consolidated net sales. Combined operating income improved
$21.8 million or approximately 80% to $48.9 million from $27.1 million in 1998.
The increase is primarily due to gains on the sale of Foods Unaligned
businesses, improvements in Foods ongoing operations due to lower raw material
costs and promotional spending, as well as the consolidated operating income
results.
Chemical
- --------
Chemical net sales were down $16.5 million or approximately 5% to $307.2 million
from $323.7 million in 1998. The most significant components of the decline are
lower pricing, unfavorable currency exchange rates in Latin America, and the
prior year exit from certain non-core businesses in North America, Latin America
and Europe, all partially offset by improved volumes, primarily in the North
America forest products resin business.
Significantly lower pricing, which negatively impacted net sales by
approximately $21 million, reflects competitive market conditions as well as
contractual arrangements that require pass-through of significantly lower raw
material costs, primarily for methanol, phenol and urea.
The unfavorable currency exchange rates in Latin America reflect a significant
currency devaluation in Brazil in early 1999 that had an unfavorable impact on
1999 net sales of approximately $12 million versus the prior year.
The 1998 sale of the North America paper resins business and the Latin America
plastic films business and the closure of a European operation resulted in a net
sales decline of approximately $11 million versus the prior year. This decline
in net sales was partially offset by the acquisition of Spurlock Industries in
May 1999, which contributed net sales of approximately $4 million.
Overall volume improvement of 11% had a positive impact on net sales of
approximately $27 million, with most of the improvement coming from a $17
million increase in the North America forest products resin business. The
improved volume in North America was driven by continued low interest rates and
strong housing and construction activity.
26
<PAGE> 27
Operating income decreased $5.5 million or approximately 13% to $35.6 million
from $41.1 million in 1998. The decline is primarily the result of a $10.0
million charge related to the closure of a plant in the Philippines. Excluding
this charge, operating results for the second quarter increased $4.5 million or
approximately 11% from the second quarter of 1998. The improvement is due
primarily to improved volumes and unit margins that reflect significantly lower
raw material costs. These improvements were partially offset by higher selling,
general and administrative expenses and the effect of unfavorable currency
exchange rates in Canada and Latin America. The favorable impact of
significantly lower raw material costs was substantially offset by lower prices.
Foods
- -----
Foods net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1999 decreased $36.7 million
or approximately 24% to $116.2 million from $152.9 million in 1998. Sales of
Foods Unaligned businesses during 1999 and 1998 accounted for $21.5 million or
approximately 59% of the decline. Net sales from ongoing businesses declined
$15.2 million resulting primarily from reductions in pasta and sauce volumes of
approximately $11.6 million due to customer inventory reductions as well as
product category and market share declines. Additionally, lower pasta unit
pricing resulted in net sales declines of $2.6 million. As part of lowering
pasta unit pricing, promotion spending was also reduced.
Foods operating results improved $15.7 million from a loss of $13.6 million to
income of $2.1 million in 1999. This increase was largely due to increased gains
on the sale of Foods Unaligned businesses in 1999 of $9.3 million. Results of
Foods Unaligned business operations improved $2.4 million. Results from Foods
ongoing operations improved $4.0 million or approximately 32% to a loss of $8.6
million in 1999 from a loss of $12.6 million in 1998. Despite lower sales, gross
margin remained the same due to lower raw material prices and manufacturing
improvements. Additionally, promotion spending was lower. These operating
improvements were partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses
related to enterprise-wide information technology systems implementation and
start-up costs.
Wise
- ----
Wise net sales in the second quarter declined $2.2 million or approximately 4%
to $59.0 million from $61.2 million in the second quarter of 1998. This net
sales decline is primarily the result of the sale of the Caribbean based
distributorship in May of 1998. Operating income in the second quarter increased
$0.6 million to $0.7 million from $0.1 million in 1998. The improvement was
primarily the result of reduced manufacturing, marketing and administrative
expenses compared to the same period last year.
Corporate and other
- -------------------
Corporate and other net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1999 increased
$0.7 million or approximately 2%, to $36.7 million from $36.0 million in 1998.
This increase is primarily due to higher volumes and improved mix in the
consumer adhesives business.
Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 1999 increased $9.9 million
to $10.5 million from $0.6 million in 1998, principally due to reduced general
and administrative expenses. Lower expenses in 1999 are primarily due to gains
on disposal of property in 1999 compared with losses in 1998 ($1.9 million),
improved cost management resulting in lower salary costs ($1.8 million), and
favorable settlement of corporate liabilities ($4.8 million). Lower expenses
were also attributable, in part to a net $0.8 million reduction in 1999 due to
the timing of various corporate and administrative expenses. Performance in the
consumer adhesives business also improved.

CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1998
Consolidated Summary
- --------------------
Consolidated net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 decreased $84.7
million or approximately 12% to $650.8 million from $735.5 million in 1998. The
net sales decline was primarily due to lower Chemical net sales related to lower
unit pricing, unfavorable currency exchange rates and the exit of non-core
businesses in 1998, partially offset by improved volumes in the North America
Chemical businesses. In addition, the 1998 divestiture of the commercial and
industrial wallcoverings business, previously classified as "Business held for
sale", contributed to the overall decline in net sales. Operating income
improved $16.5 million or approximately 25% to $82.3 million from $65.8 million
in 1998, due primarily to improved Chemical volumes, timing differences in
corporate expenses and favorable settlement of corporate liabilities, partially
offset by a $10.0 million charge related to the closure of the Philippines
Chemical operations.
Combined Summary
- ----------------
Combined net sales decreased $210.6 million or approximately 17% to $1,015.6
million from $1,226.2 million in 1998. The decline in net sales was caused
primarily by the divestiture of Foods Unaligned businesses in 1998, reduction in
pasta volumes, and the factors described above for consolidated net sales.
Combined operating income declined $263.0 million or 76% to $82.6 million from
$345.6 million in 1998. The decrease is primarily due to gains on the sale of
Foods Unaligned businesses in 1998 of $302.5 million versus $14.8 million in
1999, and the consolidated operating income results described above.
Chemical
- --------
Chemical net sales in the first half of 1999 were down $50.6 million, or
approximately 8% to $592.8 from $643.4 in 1998. The most significant components
of the decline are lower pricing, unfavorable currency exchange rates in Latin
America, and the prior year exit from certain non-core businesses in North
America, Latin America and Europe, all partially offset by improved volumes,
primarily in the North America forest products resins business.
Significantly lower pricing, which negatively impacted net sales by
approximately $40 million, reflects competitive market conditions as well as
contractual arrangements that require pass-through of significantly lower raw
material costs, primarily for methanol, phenol and urea.
The unfavorable currency exchange rates in Latin America reflect a significant
currency devaluation in Brazil in early 1999 that had an unfavorable impact on
1999 net sales of approximately $25 million versus the prior year.
The 1998 net sales of the North America paper resins business and the Latin
America plastic films business and the closure of a European operation resulted
in a net sales decline of approximately $22 million versus the prior year. This
decline in net sales was partially offset by the acquisition of Spurlock
Industries, Inc. in May 1999, which contributed sales of approximately $4
million to the first half of 1999.
Overall volume improvement of approximately 8% had a positive impact on net
sales of approximately $39 million, with most of the improvement coming from a
$26 million increase in the North America forest products resins business. The
improved volume in North America was driven by continued low interest rates and
strong housing and construction activity.
28
<PAGE> 29
Operating income in 1999 increased $0.1 million or less than 1% from 1998.
An increase in operating results was almost completely offset by a $10.0
million charge related to the closure of a plant in the Philippines. Excluding
this charge, operating results for the first half of 1999 increased $10.1
million or approximately 13% from 1998. The improvement is due primarily to
improved volumes and unit margins that reflect both significantly lower raw
material costs and lower manufacturing overhead costs resulting from specific
cost reduction and control programs. The favorable impact of significantly lower
raw material costs were substantially offset by lower unit selling prices. These
improvements were partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative
expenses and the effect of unfavorable currency exchange rates in Canada and
Latin America.
Foods
- -----
Foods net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 decreased $119.7 million
or approximately 32% to $255.8 million from $375.5 million in 1998. The sale of
Foods Unaligned businesses during 1999 and 1998 accounted for $88.9 million of
the decrease. Net sales from ongoing businesses declined $30.8 million resulting
primarily from lower pasta and sauce volumes due to customer inventory
reductions of $13.0 million. In addition, pasta product category and market
share declines resulted in reductions of approximately $11.5 million. Lower
pasta unit pricing of $3.8 million also contributed to the overall decrease in
net sales. As part of lowering pasta unit pricing, promotion spending has also
been reduced.
Foods operating results declined $282.1 million to $0.5 million in 1999 from
$282.6 million in 1998. Of this decline, $287.7 million was due to higher gains
on the sale of the Foods Unaligned businesses in 1998. Foods Unaligned business
results improved $2.1 million. Results from Foods ongoing operations improved
$3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to a loss of $16.1 million
from a loss of $19.6 million in 1998. Excluding a $7.5 million gain on the
favorable settlement of litigation in 1999, results of ongoing operations
decreased $4.0 million. Lower raw material prices and improved manufacturing
operations substantially offset pricing reductions. Reductions in trade
promotion spending were more than offset by volume declines, increased
investment in brands and additional general and administrative expense related
to enterprise-wide information technology systems implementation and start-up
costs.
Wise
- ----
Wise year to date net sales declined $6.2 million or approximately 5% to $109.0
million from $115.2 million in 1998. This net sales decline is primarily the
result of the sale of the Caribbean based distributorship in May of 1998.
Operating results in the first half of 1999 improved $1.8 million to a loss of
$0.2 million from a loss of $2.0 million in 1998. The improvement was primarily
due to the absence of a $1.0 million loss recorded on the sale of the Caribbean
based distributorship in 1998 and reduced manufacturing, marketing and
administrative expenses compared to the same period last year.
Corporate and other
- -------------------
Corporate and other net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased
$2.7 million or approximately 5% to $58.0 million from $55.3 million in 1998.
This increase is primarily due to higher volumes and improved mix in the
consumer adhesives business.
Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased $15.0 million
to $7.0 million from a loss of $8.0 million in 1998, principally due to reduced
general and administrative expenses. Lower net expense in 1999 is primarily due
to gains on disposal of property in 1999 compared with losses in 1998 ($1.9
million), improved cost management resulting in lower salary costs ($2.0
million), and favorable settlement of corporate liabilities ($4.3 million).
Lower expenses were also attributable, in part to a net $2.9 million reduction
in 1999 due to the timing of various corporate and administrative expenses.
Performance in the consumer adhesives business also improved.

Consolidated non-operating expense decreased $3.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 compared with the three months ended June 30, 1998. The
decrease was primarily attributable to equity in net income of unconsolidated
subsidiaries in 1999 compared with losses in 1998. The decrease was also
attributable, in part, to higher interest income on higher cash balances in 1999
compared with 1998, partly offset by increased affiliated interest expense.
Combined non-operating expense decreased by $1.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 compared with the three months ended June 30, 1998. The
decrease was primarily attributable to equity in net income of unconsolidated

affiliated interest expense.

</TABLE>
For the six months ended June 30, 1999, consolidated non-operating expense
decreased by $1.7 million compared with the corresponding period in the previous
year. The decrease was primarily attributable to increased interest and other
income related to an increase in the unrealized gain on an interest rate swap
which is marked to market, offset in large part by increased affiliated interest
expense and increased equity in net losses of unconsolidated subsidiaries.
For the six months ended June 30, 1999, combined non-operating expense increased
by $2.7 million compared with the corresponding period in the prior year. The
increase was partly attributable to increased equity in net losses of
unconsolidated subsidiaries and also, in part, to increased affiliated interest
expense. The increase was offset, in part, by decreased interest expense and
increased interest income.

The 1999 consolidated effective tax rates reflect a higher portion of net income
derived from foreign operations and the effect of lower tax rates in foreign
jurisdictions. The 1999 combined effective tax rates reflect a higher portion of
net income derived from foreign operations and the effect of lower tax rates in
foreign jurisdictions. It also includes the tax effect of the disposal of Borden
Foods Corporation's Chinese subsidiary, which had substantial differences in its
net book value and tax basis.
The 1998 consolidated effective income tax rate reflects the effect of certain
non-deductible charges taken during the three months ended June 30, 1998. The
combined effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 1998 reflects
changes in estimates on taxes related to businesses sold in the first quarter of
1998, as well as a change in the estimated annual effective tax rate. The
Unaligned Foods business divestitures led to a lower effective tax rate for the
Combined Companies for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as a portion of the
gain is not subject to corporate tax.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Operating Activities
- --------------------
Consolidated cash provided by operating activities totaled $30.2 million for the
first six months of 1999, and $23.4 million for the comparable period in 1998.
The most significant components of the $6.8 million improvement include an
increase of $13.5 million due to the timing of trade payments, partially offset
by an increase in taxes paid of $10.5 million.
The Combined Companies cash provided from operations of $25.1 million for the
first six months of 1999 decreased $59.4 million compared to the same period in
1998. The change in cash flows is primarily attributable to reduced 1999
operating EBITDA, after adjusting for divestitures, of approximately $36
million, reduced Foods working capital inflows and normal business activities,
partially offset by reduced taxes paid in 1999 of approximately $55 million.
Higher receivable Foods inflows in 1998 resulted from collections outpacing new
receivables as Foods was in the process of divesting its Unaligned businesses.
Cash from inventories was also higher in 1998 as a result of planned reductions
in anticipation of the sale of Foods Unaligned businesses.
Investing Activities
- --------------------
Consolidated investing activities used $66.2 million cash for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 compared to cash generated of $358.2 million in 1998.
Investing activities in 1999 include the purchase of Spurlock by Chemical using
$40.2 million while 1998 divestiture proceeds include $304.8 million from the
sale of Decorative Products, $15.5 million from the sale of a Latin American
plastic films business, and $15.6 million from the sale of the commercial and
industrial wallcoverings business. Investing activity in 1998 also includes
$66.5 million relating to net repayments of affiliated borrowings by Foods and
Wise, partially offset by the acquisition of a resins and compounds business
acquired from Sun Coast Industries, Inc. for $14.4 million.
The Combined Companies investing activity used $71.5 million in 1999 compared to
generating cash of $1,009.5 million in 1998. In addition to the above, the
Combined Companies' 1999 divestiture activity reflects $16.5 million of proceeds
from the sale of Foods Unaligned businesses compared to $721.1 million in 1998.
The $66.5 million return on investment in the consolidated investing flows is
eliminated in the combined flows as the Foods and Wise operations are included
in the Combined Companies.
Financing Activities
- --------------------
Consolidated financing activities used $56.1 million cash in 1999 compared to
cash generated of $165.4 million in 1998. Cash used in 1999 primarily includes
preferred stock dividend payments and repayment of Foods borrowings. The 1998
inflow primarily represented $433.6 million of Foods affiliated borrowings
representing proceeds from the sale of Foods Unaligned businesses, partially
offset by the repayment of the $235.3 million revolving line of credit and
payment of preferred dividends.
31
<PAGE> 32
Combined financing activities used $45.6 million in 1999 compared to $538.4
million used in 1998. The 1998 use of cash was primarily due to repayment of
bank debt from proceeds of Foods divestitures and a $272.2 million distribution
to an affiliate that is not within the Combined Companies controlled group, but
has an ownership interest in the trademarks that were sold with the Foods
Unaligned businesses.
Early in the third quarter of 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of
Blagden Chemicals, Ltd. for $71.5 million in cash.
As part of definitive merger agreements reached August 2, 1999 and August 5,
1999 between CCPC Acquisition Corporation ("CCPC") and General Housewares
Corporation and EKCO Group, Inc. ("EKCO"), respectively, Borden Inc. has
provided financial guarantees of certain CCPC obligations in connection with the
acquisition by CCPC of General Housewares for approximately $145 million and of
EKCO for approximately $300 million. Although the financial structures of the
transactions are not finalized, the Company may loan some of its cash or cash
available under its Credit Agreement to CCPC or one of its affiliates to provide
temporary financing to complete the acquisitions. Upon completion of the sales
to its subsidiary(ies), it also is anticipated that CCPC will repay the loan
from the Company.
YEAR 2000 UPDATE
- ----------------
Overview
- --------
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs written using two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's and
Combined Companies' computer programs that have date-sensitive software may
recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This
could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of
operations including, among other things, a temporary inability to process
transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities. If
not addressed, the Year 2000 issue could have a material adverse impact on the
business operations and financial results of the Company and Combined Companies.
To address this issue, the Company's and Combined Companies' Year 2000 Program
is a risk-based plan divided into three phases that are being executed by both
internal and external resources. These phases are: Phase I - an inventory of all
systems, assigning a business priority for each system and performing a
preliminary assessment of Year 2000 susceptibility; Phase II - completion of
detailed Year 2000 susceptibility analyses and development of remediation plans
and contingency plans; and Phase III - completion of the remediation plans,
system testing, and contingency planning.
The Year 2000 efforts are divided into three areas that include (1) systems
being replaced by new enterprise-wide system implementations; (2) systems that
will not be replaced by new enterprise-wide system implementations, including
non-information technology systems such as plant process controls; and (3)
external suppliers and customers. Implementations of the new enterprise-wide
systems are substantially complete. Remediation and testing of other systems is
substantially complete. Third party and contingency planning efforts are in
progress. A discussion of each area of activity relative to the three phased
approach follows.
Enterprise-Wide Systems
- -----------------------
Phases I & II are completed for enterprise-wide systems and Phase III is
substantially complete. Comprehensive new enterprise-wide systems have been
implemented by each of the Company's and the Combined Companies' businesses to
replace most business and accounting systems. One newly acquired business will
be converted to an enterprise-wide system in September, 1999. The
enterprise-wide system versions are said to be Year 2000 compliant by the
vendors and include SAP, PeopleSoft and J.D. Edwards. Testing of these new
systems is substantially complete. Due to the relative complexity and importance
of the business and accounting systems to ongoing operations of the Company and
Combined Companies, the new enterprise-wide system implementations address the
significant majority of the Company's and Combined Companies' internal Year 2000
risk.
Other Systems
- -------------
For the systems not to be replaced by enterprise-wide implementations, Phase I
and Phase II are complete, and Phase III remediation and testing are
substantially complete. Some work remains to address newly acquired businesses
and is scheduled to be completed in September 1999.
32
<PAGE> 33
Suppliers and Customers
- -----------------------
The Company and Combined Companies have completed Phase I and much of Phase II
to assess and address the risks related to third party suppliers and customers.
Supplier and customer responses continue to be evaluated and appropriate
procedures are being performed to determine the extent to which the Company and
Combined Companies may be vulnerable to the failure of third parties to resolve
their own Year 2000 issues. Contingency planning is in process. Efforts related
to suppliers and customers, including development of contingency plans where
appropriate, are targeted for completion by August 31, 1999. Although the
Company's and Combined Companies' systems do not rely significantly on systems
of other companies, the Company and Combined Companies cannot provide assurance
that failure of third parties to address the Year 2000 issue will not have an
adverse impact on business operations and results.
Costs
- -----
Significant investments in enterprise-wide information systems have been made
since 1996 that will total approximately $74 million for the Company and $120
million for the Combined Companies by the Year 2000. The cost to make the
remaining systems Year 2000 compliant is estimated to be $7 million for the
Company and $15 million for the Combined Companies. As of June 30, 1999, the
Company and Combined Companies had incurred costs of approximately $70 million
and $115 million, respectively, for enterprise-wide systems and approximately $6
million and $14 million, respectively, for other systems and efforts.
Risks
- -----
Due to the general uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, including
primarily the uncertainty associated with suppliers and customers, the potential
effect of the Year 2000 issue on the financial results and condition of the
Company and Combined Companies has not been measured. The Company and Combined
Companies intend the Year 2000 Program, as described above, to be completed on a
timely basis so as to significantly reduce the level of uncertainty and the
impact on business operations and financial results. Work performed to date on
the internal systems has reduced the risk to the Company and Combined Companies,
although complete assurances cannot be provided. Contingency plans have been and
will continue to be developed and implemented to mitigate Year 2000 risks and
the effect of Year 2000 issues. The plans will address third party risks as well
as internal system risks.
Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements contained in the Year 2000
Update should be read in conjunction with the disclosure under the heading
"Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements".
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
- --------------------------------
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137,
which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires all derivatives be measured at fair
value and recorded on a company's balance sheet as an asset or liability,
depending on the company's underlying rights or obligations associated with the
derivative instrument. The Company is investigating the impact of this
pronouncement, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the company's
results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
FORWARD-LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
- -----------------------------------------
The Company and its officers may, from time to time, make written or oral
statements regarding the future performance of the Company, including statements
contained in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Investors should be aware that these statements are based on currently available
financial, economic, and competitive data and on current business plans. Such
statements are inherently uncertain and investors should recognize that events
could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those
projected in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company.
Such risks and uncertainties are primarily in the areas of results of operations
by business unit, liquidity, legal and environmental liabilities, Year 2000
update, and market risk.

<PAGE> 34
Item 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company and Combined Companies continue to enter into various financial
instruments, primarily to hedge interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange
risk. In the first six months of 1999, the nature and amounts of these
instruments have not significantly changed from the 1998 Borden, Inc. Form 10K,
except for an increase in forward currency contracts.
The notional amount of forward currency contracts for the Company increased
$128.4 million from $39.7 million at December 31, 1998 to $168.1 million for the
period ended June 30, 1999. The notional amount of outstanding forward currency
contracts for the Combined Companies increased $156.7 million from $55.8 million
at December 31, 1998 to $212.5 million for the period ended June 30, 1999. The
increase primarily represents the anticipated transfer by Chemical of
approximately $71 million to a foreign affiliate to finance the acquisition of
Blagden Chemicals, Ltd. (see Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated and Condensed
Combined Financial Statements) and the anticipated subsequent repayment of the
amount by the foreign affiliate. The net fair value of the losses related to the
contracts outstanding at the period ended June 30, 1999, as determined from
quoted market prices at June 30, 1999, was approximately $0.3 million for the
Company and approximately $0.1 million for the Combined Companies.

PART II
Item 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There have been no material developments during the second quarter of 1999 in
the ongoing legal proceedings that are discussed in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the quarterly report on
Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 1999.
The Company is involved in other litigation throughout the United States, which
is considered to be in the ordinary course of the Company's business.
The Company believes, based on the information it presently possesses, and
taking into account its established reserves for estimated liability and its
insurance coverages, that the ultimate outcome of the foregoing proceedings is
unlikely to have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position
or operating results.

BORDEN FOODS HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Borden Foods Holdings Corporation ("Foods Holdings"), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Borden Foods Holdings, LLC ("LLC"), owns approximately 98% of Borden Foods
Corporation ("BFC"). The remaining interest in BFC is owned directly by LLC. BFC
is a manufacturer and distributor of a variety of food products worldwide,
including pasta, pasta sauce, soups and bouillon. At June 30, 1999, BFC's
operations included 9 production facilities, 4 of which are located in the
United States. The remaining facilities are located primarily in Canada and
Europe.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Foods Holdings has fully and unconditionally guaranteed obligations under
Borden, Inc.'s ("Borden") Credit Facility and all of Borden's publicly held debt
on a pari passu basis. As a result of the financial guarantee and in accordance
with Regulation S-X rule 3-10, Borden is required to include in its filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission separate financial statements for Foods
Holdings as if it were a registrant. Foods Holdings' financial statements are
prepared on a purchase accounting basis. Borden elected not to apply push down
accounting in its consolidated or combined financial statements and, as such,
Borden's financial statements are reported on a historical cost basis.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which
management believes to be necessary for the fair presentation of operating
results for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results for
the interim periods are subject to seasonal variations and are not necessarily
indicative of results for the full year. The interim financial statements should
be read in conjunction with Foods Holdings' audited financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 1998.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1999
presentation.
3. BUSINESS REALIGNMENT
Restructuring of Aligned Businesses
- -----------------------------------
In 1996, management approved the closure of five domestic pasta plants in order
to reduce its SKU complexity and manufacturing capacity. On January 5, 1999, a
remaining facility was sold for proceeds of $2,424.
As of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, reserves related to the restructuring
of aligned businesses of $328 and $7,570, respectively, remained in other
current liabilities. It is anticipated that the remaining balance will be
disbursed by the end of fiscal 1999.
BFH8
<PAGE> 44
Divested Businesses
- -------------------
During the first quarter of 1999, BFC received proceeds of $9,476 for working
capital settlements on the sale of KLIM, of which $8,400 was included in other
receivables as of December 31, 1998, and reduced current liabilities by $2,012,
as costs were lower than previously estimated.
On April 30, 1999, BFC sold the milk powder business located in China to Royal
Numico. The sale generated proceeds of $7,112, resulting in a pre-tax gain of
$10,838 and an after tax gain of $3,528. BFC had previously elected to exit the
milk powder business and sold significant operations, excluding China, to
Nestle, S.A. in 1998. At that time, BFC established divestiture reserves of
$4,289 for costs to close operations in China, and recorded $12,794 to
write-down assets to estimated net realizable value. As a result of the sale,
certain remaining liabilities for closure costs of $3,112 were no longer
required.
In 1998, BFC and Investment LP sold the Signature Flavor business to Eagle
Family Foods, Inc. for $376,500 and the KLIM business to Nestle, S.A for
$335,735. As a result of these divestitures, BFC recorded a pre-tax gain of
$183,254, net of charges for work-force reductions, closure of facilities,
selling and legal fees, contract terminations, transition services and other
miscellaneous costs.
On May 22, 1998, BFC sold its Puerto Rican distributor. The sale generated
proceeds of $8,844 and a pre-tax loss of $1,683.
Activities related to the divestiture reserves during the three and six months
ended June 30, 1999, which were recorded in other current liabilities, were as
follows:

Subsequent Divestiture
- ----------------------
On July 14, 1999, BFC sold the chocolate milk business located in Denmark.
The sale generated proceeds of $6,692 and a pre-tax gain of approximately
$1,200.
4. AFFILIATE'S SHARE OF INCOME
In accordance with BFC Investment LP's limited partnership agreement with BFC
and LLC, LLC was allocated an affiliate's share of income (see accompanying
condensed consolidated statements of operations) of $265 and $130,069 during the
first six months of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The 1998 allocation was
primarily due to a gain on divestiture of the Signature Flavor business. In the
second quarter of 1998, $272,205 was distributed to the LLC.
5. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive income (loss) was computed as follows:

The reclassification adjustment in 1998 represents the accumulated translation
adjustment recognized on the sale of the KLIM business.
6. RELATED PARTIES
Borden and a subsidiary of Borden provide certain administrative services to BFC
at negotiated fees. These services include processing of payroll, active and
retiree group insurance claims, securing insurance coverage for catastrophic
claims, and information systems support. BFC also reimburses the Borden
subsidiary for payments for general disbursements and post-employment benefit
claims. The amount owed by BFC for reimbursement of payments, services, and
other liabilities was $1,107 at June 30, 1999 and $2,935 at of December 31,
1998.
Eligible U.S. employees are provided employee pension benefits under the Borden
domestic pension plan to which BFC contributes, and can participate in the
Borden retirement savings plan. BFC has recognized expenses associated with
these benefits, certain of which are determined by Borden's actuary. The
liabilities for these obligations are included in BFC's financial statements.

BFC performs certain administrative services on behalf of other Borden
affiliates. These services include sales administration, promotion, purchasing
and research and development. BFC charged affiliates $168 and $297 for such
services for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and
$405 and $582 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The
receivable for these services was $942 at June 30, 1999 and $505 at December 31,
1998.
BFC invests cash not used in operations with Borden. BFC's investment balance
was $264,650 at June 30, 1999 and $277,591 at December 31, 1998. The funds are
invested overnight earning a rate set by Borden that generally approximates
money market rates. BFC earned interest income of $3,402 and $4,601 on these
funds for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and
$6,659 and $10,416 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. Amounts receivable for interest were $1,265 and $1,625 as of June
30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.
Borden continues to provide executive, financial and strategic management to BFC
for which it charges a quarterly fee of $250.
7. UNIT INCENTIVE PLAN
During the first quarter of 1999, LLC sold 389,125 Class C units to certain BFC
management employees. The Class C units are generally restricted as to transfer
and allow for LLC, at its discretion, to repurchase the units, upon certain
conditions including termination of the unitholders' employment, prior to full
vesting after five years.
Under the Unit Incentive Plan, BFC issued four UAR's with an exercise price of
$8 per unit for each Class C unit purchased. The UAR entitles the unitholder to
receive an amount in cash equal to the excess of the market price (as defined in
the UAR agreement) of the unit over the exercise price of the UAR. The UAR's
vest ratably over five years and expire upon certain events, including
termination of the unitholders' employment, but in no case to exceed ten years.
BFH11
<PAGE> 47
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
- -------------
BFC and Helm Tomatoes, Inc. reached agreement to settle a claim of wrongful
termination of a tomato packing agreement with payments from BFC of $3,300 in
May 1999 and $3,400 in May 2000. A gain of $7,500, derived from the difference
between an initial reserve of $14,500 less the settlement and legal fees, was
recorded in general and administrative expense during the first quarter of 1999.
BFC is involved in certain other legal proceedings arising through the normal
course of business. Management is of the opinion that the final outcomes of such
proceedings should not have a material impact on BFC's results of operations or
financial position.
Year 2000
- ---------
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs written using two rather
than four digits to define the applicable year. Many of BFC's computer programs
that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations including, among other things,
a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in
similar normal business activities. If not addressed, the Year 2000 issue could
have a negative material impact on the business operations and financial results
of BFC.
BFC's Year 2000 Program is a risk-based plan divided into three phases that are
being executed by both internal and external resources. These phases are: (I) an
inventory of all systems, assigning a business priority for each system and
performing a preliminary assessment of Year 2000 susceptibility, (II) completion
of a detailed Year 2000 susceptibility analysis and development of remediation
plans and contingency plans, and (III) implementation of the remediation,
contingency planing and completing final system testing.
The Year 2000 efforts are divided into three categories: (1) ERP - business
systems replaced by new enterprise-wide system implementation, (2) Non-ERP -
business systems that were not replaced by the new enterprise-wide system
implementation, including non-information technology systems such as plant
process controls, and (3) Third Parties - external suppliers and customers.
ERP - The comprehensive new enterprise-wide system implemented by BFC replaced
most business and accounting systems. The enterprise-wide system versions are
warranted by the vendor to be Year 2000 compliant by utilizing a four digit
standard. These vendors include PeopleSoft, Vista and I2. Due to the relative
complexity and importance of the business and accounting systems to ongoing
operations, the new enterprise-wide system implementation addresses the
significant majority of BFC's internal Year 2000 risk. Implementation of the new
system was completed and tested as of June 30, 1999.
Non-ERP - BFC substantially completed system remediation and system testing
activities as of June 30, 1999. Contingency plans are in place for those systems
for which remediation and testing is planned, but work was not yet completed.
Third Parties - The Year 2000 Program included procedures to assess the risks
related to suppliers and customers. As a result of initial inquiries, supplier
and customer responses have been received. These responses were evaluated and
appropriate procedures were performed to determine the extent to which BFC may
be vulnerable to such parties' failure to resolve their own Year 2000 issues.
Efforts related to suppliers and customers, including development of contingency
plans where appropriate, were substantially completed as of June 30, 1999. Third
Party work included validation of supplier Year 2000 programs through site
visits to mission critical suppliers, extensive phone interviews to critical
suppliers, and documented questionnaire responses from suppliers rated as
BFH12
<PAGE> 48
important and marginal. Although BFC's systems do not rely significantly on
systems of other companies, BFC cannot provide assurance that failure of third
parties to address the Year 2000 issue will not have an adverse impact on
business operations and results.
Business Contingency Planning is in process to minimize exposure (spread and
duration) from internal and external events and to mitigate the financial impact
of Year 2000 events. Examples of these plans are the pre-building of key inputs
and critical finished goods inventory, plant shut downs over the millennium with
staggered startups, and the establishment of a war room as a communications
focal point. Testing of the plans will be completed by September 30, 1999.
Significant investments in an enterprise-wide information system and Year 2000
program expenses addressing non-compliance across all areas of the company will
total approximately $43,200 by the year 2000. This amount consists of $36,200
for the enterprise-wide information system and $7,000 of total Year 2000 costs
and write-offs. Year 2000 costs and write-offs are comprised of $3,900 for
business remediation, $2,300 for other related areas and program management, and
$800 in write-offs of non-compliant hardware and systems.
Due to the general uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, including the
uncertainty associated with suppliers and customers, the potential effect on the
financial results and condition of BFC has not been measured. BFC has
substantially completed the Year 2000 Program on a timely basis so as to
significantly reduce the level of uncertainty and the impact on business
operations and financial results. Contingency plans have been and continue to be
developed and implemented to mitigate Year 2000 risks and the effect of Year
2000 issues.

WISE HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands, except for per share information)
1. BACKGROUND
In September 1994, Borden, Inc. ("Borden") entered into a merger agreement that
provided for the acquisition of all of Borden's outstanding common stock by
affiliates of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. ("KKR"). Borden elected not to apply
push down accounting in its consolidated financial statements as a result of
public debt that was outstanding prior to the acquisition, and as such, Borden's
financial statements (including Wise) are reported on Borden's historical cost
basis. As discussed in the "Basis of Presentation," Wise's financial statements
have been prepared on a purchase accounting basis from the date of KKR's
acquisition of Borden. The effective date of the merger agreement was January 1,
1995 for accounting and financial statement presentation purposes.
Effective July 2, 1996, in a taxable transaction (the "Incorporation"), Borden
sold its salty snacks business ("Wise operations") to Wise Holdings Inc.
("Wise"), a KKR affiliate, for $45 million. The purchase price was based on an
independent valuation of the business. There was no change in the financial
reporting basis of the assets and liabilities as of July 2, 1996 from that
described below under "Basis of Presentation" because Borden's principal
stockholders continue to exercise significant financial control over Wise. Wise
fully and unconditionally guarantees obligations under Borden's credit facility
and all of Borden's publicly held debt on a pari passu basis.
In connection with this guarantee, Wise receives an annual fee of $210.
2. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Wise is a producer and distributor of salty snacks in the eastern United States.
Wise's product line includes potato chips, cheese flavored baked and fried corn
snacks, pretzels, tortilla chips, corn chips, onion rings, pork rinds and other
assorted snacks. Wise markets its products under the brand names of WISE(R),
CHEEZ DOODLES(R), QUINLAN(R), NEW YORK DELI(R), KRUNCHERS!(R), BRAVOS(R),
MOORE'S(R) and WISE CHOICE(TM) and conducts its business through two principal
divisions: Wise and Moore's. The Wise and Moore's divisions manufacture and
distribute primarily in the eastern United States. Wise's products are
distributed through both independent and company-owned distribution networks.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
- ---------------------
As a result of the financial guarantee and in accordance with Regulation S-X
rule 3-10, Borden is required to include in its filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission separate financial statements for Wise as if it were a
registrant. The accompanying financial statements subsequent to the purchase by
KKR have been prepared on a purchase accounting basis that allocates
approximately $51 million of the original KKR purchase price of Borden to the
Wise operations. The purchase price has been allocated to tangible and
intangible assets and liabilities of Wise based on independent appraisals and
management estimates.
WH 7
<PAGE> 56
The condensed consolidated financial statements of Wise collectively include the
financial position of Wise Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1999
and December 31, 1998. These financial statements also include the statements of
operations of Wise for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 and
cash flows of Wise for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. These
unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal
and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.
Reclassifications
- -----------------
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1999
presentation.
Per Share Information
- ---------------------
Basic and diluted loss per common share at June 30, 1999 and 1998 is computed by
dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. On
April 24, 1998 the number of shares authorized and outstanding were reduced for
administrative and tax purposes. The Per Share information for June 30, 1999 and
1998 is computed based on the adjusted shares outstanding. Options issued by
subsidiaries that enable the holder to obtain stock of the subsidiary were not
assumed exercised because they were antidilutive for both 1999 and 1998. Wise
has no other potentially dilutive securities.
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The
most significant estimates in Wise's financial statements are related to
allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for trade promotions, general and
group insurance, income taxes, post-retirement benefits, asset lives and
corporate allocations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Statements
- -------------------------------------
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. Wise implemented this pronouncement as
of January 1, 1999. Wise estimates that internal costs approximating $400 will
be eligible for capitalization in 1999 which would have been expensed as
incurred.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS 137,
which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to Fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000 and requires all derivatives be measured at fair value and
recorded on a company's balance sheet as a asset or liability, depending upon
the company's underlying rights or obligations associated with the derivative
instrument. Wise is investigating the impact of this pronouncement, but does not
expect it to have a material impact on the company's results of operations,
financial position or cash flows.

</TABLE>
5. AFFILIATED LONG-TERM DEBT
In conjunction with the Incorporation, Wise entered into a long-term loan
agreement (the "Loan Agreement") to borrow funds from Borden.
Revolving Loan
- --------------
The Loan Agreement provides for a revolving loan facility of up to $5 million
maturing in December 1999, at a variable interest rate equal to Borden's cost of
funds for 30 day LIBOR borrowings plus 0.25%. A commitment fee based on a
variable rate tied to Borden's leverage is charged on the unused portion of the
revolving loan facility. Wise had no borrowings under the revolving agreement at
June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998.
Long-Term Loan
- --------------
The Loan Agreement also provides for a $10 million term loan with a fixed
interest rate of 11% maturing in November 2000, payable in full at the maturity
date. At June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, $7.5 million and $5.0 million,
respectively, remained outstanding under this loan agreement.
The Loan Agreement contains certain restrictions on the activities of Wise and
its subsidiaries, including restrictions on liens, the incidence of
indebtedness, mergers and consolidations, sales of assets, investments, payment
of dividends (requires prior approval from Borden), changes in nature of
business, prepayments of certain indebtedness, transactions with affiliates,
capital expenditures, changes in control of the company and the use of proceeds
from asset sales.
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Environmental Contingencies
- ---------------------------
Wise, like others in similar businesses, is subject to extensive Federal, state
and local environmental laws and regulations. Although Wise's environmental
policies and practices are designed to ensure compliance with these laws and
regulations, future developments and increasingly stringent regulations could
require Wise to make additional unforeseen environmental expenditures.
Environmental accruals are routinely reviewed on an interim basis as events and
developments warrant and are subject to an annual comprehensive review.
WH 9
<PAGE> 58
Litigation
- ----------
Wise is subject to various investigations, claims and legal proceedings covering
a wide range of matters in the ordinary course of its business activities. Each
of these matters is subject to various uncertainties and some of these matters
may be resolved unfavorably to Wise. Wise has established accruals for matters
that are probable and reasonably estimable. Management believes that any
liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters in
excess of amounts provided will not have a material adverse effect on the
financial statements of Wise.
7. RELATED PARTIES
Wise is engaged in various transactions with Borden and its affiliated companies
in the ordinary course of business. A subsidiary of Borden provides certain
administrative services to Wise at negotiated fees. These services include:
processing of payroll and active and retiree group insurance claims. Wise
reimburses the Borden subsidiary for payments for general disbursements, and
general and group insurance and retirement benefit claims. The amount owed by
Wise for these services is included in affiliated payables and was $356 and $463
at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.
The liabilities for these obligations are included in Wise's financial
statements. The following table summarizes the charges to Wise for these costs.
