1. General
The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements
include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods
presented. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of
Alpharma Inc. and Subsidiaries included in the Company's 1997
Annual Report on Form 10-K. The reported results for the three
and nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
2. Inventories
Inventories consist of the following:
September 30, December 31,
1998 1997
Finished product $ 73,723 $ 68,525
Work-in-process 27,316 20,009
Raw materials 39,038 32,917
$140,077 $121,451
3. Long-Term Debt
In March 1998, the Company issued $125,000 of 5.75%
Convertible Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") due 2005. The Notes
may be converted into common stock at $28.594 at any time prior
to maturity, subject to adjustment under certain conditions. The
Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, on or after
April 6, 2001, at a premium plus accrued interest.
Concurrently, A.L. Industrier A.S., the controlling
stockholder of the Company, purchased at par for cash $67,850
principal amount of a Convertible Subordinated Note (the
"Industrier Note"). The Note has substantially identical
adjustment terms and interest rate.
The Notes are convertible into Class A common stock. The
Industrier Note is automatically convertible into Class B common
stock if at least 75% of the Class A notes are converted into
common stock.
The net proceeds from the combined offering of $189,100 were
used to retire outstanding senior long-term debt. The Revolving
Credit Facility was used in the second quarter, along with an
amount of short term debt, to finance the acquisition of Cox
Pharmaceuticals. (See note 4.)
Long-term debt consists of the following:
