Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition

Operations

Worldwide net sales for the third quarter of 1995 increased 5% over the prior
year to $360,083,000. For the first nine months of 1995, net sales increased 12%
over the prior year to $1,127,983,000. Sales increases were recorded in flavor
and fragrance products in both the third quarter and nine month periods. The
sales increase in the third quarter and the first nine months of 1995 was
favorably affected by translating stronger foreign currencies into the U.S.
dollar.

Net income for the third quarter of 1995 was $63,326,000, an increase of 8% from
the 1994 third quarter. Net income for the first nine months of 1995 was
$208,984,000, an increase of 14% over the comparable 1994 period. The profit
growth recorded by the Company was primarily the result of the sales increase
for the period. Earnings per share for the third quarter and first nine months
in 1995 were $.57 and $1.88, as compared to $.53 and $1.64 in the prior year
quarter and nine month periods, respectively.

The percentage relationship of cost of goods sold and other operating expenses
to sales for the first nine months of 1995 and 1994 remained fairly constant,
especially on an overall basis.

                                                 First Nine Months
                                                 -----------------
                                                   1995     1994
                                                   -----    -----

       Research and Development Expense .......     6.0%     5.9%
       Selling and Administrative Expense .....    14.3%    15.0%

Interest expense was $932,000 for the third quarter of 1995, compared to
$1,359,000 for the third quarter 1994. For the first nine months of 1995,
interest expense amounted to $2,544,000 compared to $12,903,000 in the first
nine months of 1994. The lower interest expense in 1995 resulted primarily from
the lower average level of borrowings and lower interest rates in Brazil, where
such borrowings were used as hedges against devaluations in that country. In
1994, the higher borrowing levels and interest rates in Brazil generated
significant offsetting exchange gains which were included in Other Income. Other
Income was $2,617,000 for the third quarter 1995, and $10,151,000 for the first

nine months of 1995, compared to $3,322,000 and $21,132,000 for the
corresponding periods in 1994; the decline in 1995 was primarily due to lower
exchange gains resulting from the hedging activities in Brazil mentioned above.

The effective tax rates for the third quarter and first nine months of 1995 were
36.5% and 36.8%, respectively, as compared to 37.3% for the comparable periods
in 1994.

Financial Condition

The financial condition of the Company continued to be strong during the third
quarter. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $285,368,000
at September 30, 1995. At September 30, 1995, working capital was $786,812,000
compared to $704,763,000 at December 31, 1994. Gross additions to property,
plant and equipment during the first nine months of 1995 were $57,080,000. In
January 1995, the Company's cash dividend was increased 14.8% to an annual rate
of $1.24 per share, and $.31 per share was paid to shareholders in each of the
first three quarters of 1995. The Company anticipates that its growth, capital
expenditure programs and share repurchase program will be funded from internal
sources.

The cumulative translation adjustment component of Shareholders' Equity at
September 30, 1995 was $78,452,000 compared to $41,798,000 at December 31, 1994.
Changes in the component result from translating the net assets of the majority
of the Company's foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars at current exchange
rates as required by the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52 on
accounting for foreign currency translation.
