Note to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
- ---------------------------------------------------
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Engelhard
Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") contain all adjustments which, in
the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for
the interim periods presented.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Item 2. Financial Condition and Results of Operations
- ------- ---------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
---------------------
Comparison of the First Quarter of 1996
With the First Quarter of 1995
- ---------------------------------------
Earnings before income taxes for the first quarter of 1996 were $45.5
million compared with $37.8 million in the first quarter of 1995. The increase
was primarily due to a 14% increase in operating earnings as the Catalysts and
Chemicals segment and the Engineered Materials and Industrial Commodities
Management segment reported higher results which more than offset unfavorable
results in the Pigments and Additives segment. Operating earnings and selling,
administrative and other expenses exclude the former Engineered Materials
businesses placed in the Engelhard-CLAL joint venture in June 1995. Earnings
related to the venture are reported as equity earnings. This was the primary
reason for the decrease in selling, administrative and other expenses. Equity
losses from affiliates reflected the results of Engelhard-CLAL which is a new
precious metal products joint venture and Engelhard/ICC which is heavily
involved in new technology development related to desiccant air conditioning.
Higher net interest expense was due to higher average debt balances which more
than offset some favorable interest rate experience during the period.
Net earnings for the first quarter of 1996 were $32.6 million compared with
$27.6 million in 1995. The effective tax rate in 1996 was 28.5% compared with
27.0% for the same period last year.
Net sales for the first quarter of 1996 increased 12% to $774.7 million
from $694.5 million for the same quarter in 1995 with higher sales in the
Catalysts and Chemicals segment and the Engineered Materials and Industrial
Commodities Management segment more than offsetting lower sales in the Pigments
and Additives segment.
Catalysts and Chemicals
- -----------------------
Operating earnings increased 31% to $32.2 million in the first quarter of
1996 from $24.5 million in the same period of 1995 while net sales increased 20%
to $211.0 million in 1996 from $175.5 in 1995.
The Environmental Technologies Group had higher earnings largely due to
sales of automotive emission-control catalysts in the United States, Europe and
South Africa. In the Petroleum Catalysts Group, lower expenses and increased
earnings from moving bed catalysts offset a continuing weak demand for fluid
catalytic cracking catalysts. The Chemical Catalysts Group benefitted from
higher base metal catalysts and precious metals catalysts volumes worldwide.

<PAGE>
Pigments and Additives
- ----------------------
Operating earnings decreased 7% to $17.5 million in the first quarter of
1996 from $18.8 million in the same period of 1995 while net sales decreased
4% to $97.2 million in 1996 from $101.5 million in 1995.
The Paper Pigments and Chemicals Group had higher earnings largely due to a
higher-value product mix and continued productivity improvements which offset
higher energy costs and soft demand in the paper industry. These higher earnings
were more than offset by the Specialty Minerals and Colors Group which had lower
earnings due to softness in the automotive and ink industries and weather-
related delays in the housing industry which translated into lower volumes of
specialty minerals and colors products.
Engineered Materials and Industrial Commodities Management
- ----------------------------------------------------------
Operating earnings increased 8% to $12.0 million in the first quarter of
1996 from $11.0 million in the same period of 1995 and net sales increased 12%
to $466.5 million in 1996 from $417.5 million in 1995.
The Engineered Materials Group had lower earnings largely due to the
transfer of former business units into the Engelhard-CLAL joint venture. The
lower earnings were more than offset by the Industrial Commodities Management
Group which benefitted from favorable market conditions.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
-------------------------------
At March 31, 1996 the Company's current ratio was 1.2 and the total debt to
total capital ratio was 36%, both about the same as at December 31, 1995.
Management believes that the combination of the Company's cash on hand,
ongoing cash flow and the ability to access credit and capital markets will be
adequate to finance its working capital requirements and capital expenditure
programs.
Other Matters
-------------
The Company announced on April 22, 1996 that it reached an agreement in
principle to buy Mearl Corporation, a privately held, world-leading manufacturer
of pearlescent pigments and iridescent film, for $272.7 million in cash, subject
to adjustment. The transaction is expected to close during the second quarter of
1996. Mearl's headquarters are in Briarcliff Manor, New York.
The Mearl business will significantly broaden the Company's existing
pigment and additives capabilities and move the Company into entirely new and
growing market areas.

were negatively impacted by a charge of approximately $148 million for the realignment and consolidation of
businesses and environmental matters. Without such charge the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for fiscal 1993
would have been 7.14.
