4)       Acquisitions

         On October 12, 1994, the Company completed the acquisition of the
stock of Nobel's Pharma Chemistry Business ("Nobel/Profarmaco") from Akzo Nobel
for approximately $126,000.  The business consists of Nobel Chemicals AB in
Karlskoga, Sweden, Profarmaco Nobel S.r.l. in Milan, Italy, and sales companies
in Germany, England and the United States.  Nobel/Profarmaco manufactures fine
chemical intermediates and bulk active ingredients for pharmaceutical products.
The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and was financed with the
Company's new credit agreement, and resulted in goodwill of $45,756 which is
being amortized on a straight line basis over 17.5 years.

         On January 31, 1994, the Company completed the acquisition of the
assets of Hexcel Corporation's fine chemicals business located in
Middlesbrough, England, for approximately $7,400 and the assumption of certain
current liabilities in the amount of $2,100.  The business, now known as Seal
Sands Chemicals Ltd. ("Seal Sands"), manufactures chemical intermediates used
in the pharmaceutical, photographic, water treatment, health care, and plastics
industries.  On May 27, 1994, the Company purchased the Topanol product line
from Zeneca Limited to complement the Seal Sands operations for $4,600.  These
transactions were accounted for as purchases and were financed with the
Company's credit agreement, and resulted in goodwill of $1,881 for Seal Sands
and $504 for Topanol which are being amortized on a straight line basis over
17.5 years and 5 years, respectively.

         Unaudited pro forma results as if the Nobel/Profarmaco and Seal Sands
acquisitions and the Topanol product line purchase had occurred at January 1 of
1994 are presented below.  The pro forma financial information is not
necessarily indicative of results of operations that would have occurred had
the combinations been in effect at the beginning of the periods nor of future
results of operations of the combined companies.

1995.

 7)      Postemployment Benefits

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 112 "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits" (SFAS 112) requires the recognition on
an accrual basis of all types of postemployment benefits provided to former or
inactive employees subsequent to employment but before retirement.  The Company
currently provides limited benefits in this regard.  The Company adopted SFAS
112 effective January 1, 1994.  The net effect upon 1994 and first six months
of 1995 pretax operating results was immaterial.

(8)      Contingencies

         Refer to Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, for

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results in the second quarter of 1995 were significantly better than the second
quarter of 1994 due to the Nobel/Profarmaco acquisition completed in October
1994, and to the improvements in the base business.  The impact of these is
shown in the table below:

</TABLE>

Net revenues for the second quarter 1995 increased 52% to $88,215 from $58,224
reported in the second quarter 1994.  The $29,991 increase was primarily due to
the acquisitions of Nobel Chemicals in Sweden and Profarmaco in Italy, and to
increased sales in the health and pharmaceuticals, and specialty and fine
chemicals categories of the base business.  The table below shows the
contribution of the Nobel/Profarmaco acquisition to the product categories and
changes in the base business.

</TABLE>

Health and Pharmaceuticals' revenues increased $26,578 with Nobel and
Profarmaco contributing sales of $25,402.  Revenues from the base business
increased $1,176 (8%) mainly due to increased sales of two intermediates used
for dextromethorphan, an over-the-counter cough suppressant, and from bulk
Vitamin B3 and its intermediates.  These increases more than offset the $1,400
lost sales from the hydrogels and Wickhen cosmetic lines which were divested
late in 1994.

Specialty and Fine Chemicals' revenues increased $5,293 (32%) over 1994.  The
acquisition of Nobel Chemicals accounted for $2,637 of this increase.  Revenues
from the base business increased $2,656 (16%) from second quarter 1994.  This
was due to an increase in several fine chemical products including sales of
cross-linking agents to improve the performance of polycarbonate resins, a
product used as a polymer antioxidant, and pyridine derivatives used in various
fine chemical intermediates.

Agricultural Intermediates and Additives' revenues decreased $1,449 (9%) from
1994's second quarter.  The decrease was mainly due to reduced shipments of
animal feed additives used to improve weight gain and fight disease in poultry.
The reduction in shipments was due to (1) high 1994 shipments to compensate for
first quarter 1994 downtime associated with installing a new filter system and
(2) fewer orders in 1995 due to the customer's inventory levels.  This decrease
was partially offset by increased sales of pyridine and its derivatives used in
herbicides.

Performance Chemicals' revenues increased $474 (6%) from 1994.  The key
increases were in the fiber optic gel and biomedical applications.

Coatings' revenues decreased $740 (15%) from 1994.  Decreases occurred in all
products in this category.

Export Sales from the U.S. were $13,886 in the second quarter 1995 versus
$10,709 in the second quarter 1994 mainly due to the increased shipments of
pyridine derivatives.  International sales from all European operations totaled
$34,533 versus $3,964 in the second quarter 1994 due to the acquisition of
Nobel/Profarmaco in October 1994.

<PAGE>   11

Gross profit in the second quarter 1995 of $25,081 (28.4%) compared to $14,593
(25.1%) in the second quarter 1994.  The acquisition of Nobel/Profarmaco
contributed $8,922 to the increased gross profit.  The base business had an
increase of $1,566.  The gross profit percentage of the base business increased
to 26.8% versus 25.1% in 1994.  The key to the improved gross margin was
improved pricing.  This improvement was partially offset by increased raw
material costs.

Raw materials used in pyridine products decreased in price in the second
quarter 1995 versus the first quarter 1995 but remain above the second quarter
1994 levels.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues
was 14.9% versus 15.7% in the second quarter 1994.  The marketing and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues decreased particularly
in our agricultural intermediates and additives and performance chemicals
business areas due to continued effects of cost improvements.  These decreases
were partially offset by increases in administrative expenses associated with
the acquisition of Nobel/Profarmaco.

Net interest expense of $3,288 in the second quarter 1995 increased $2,618 over
1994.  This increase was due to the additional borrowings for acquisitions and
an increase in the interest rate of approximately 2%.

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter 1995 resulted in an
effective tax rate of 37% vs. 33% in 1994.  This increase was due to higher
effective tax rates attributable to the Company's Profarmaco operation in Italy
and to a favorable adjustment of $250,000 made in the second quarter of 1994
in order to reflect the correct 1994 tax rate.

The Company's net income increased 51% to $5,107 compared with a net income of
$3,380 in the second quarter 1994.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash flow from operations was $3,486 for the first six months 1995 compared
with $9,523 in 1994.  The decrease in cash flow is primarily due to increases
in accounts receivable and inventories, partially offset by increased net
income, depreciation and amortization.

Capital expenditures were $19,998 in the first six months 1995 as compared to
$7,514 in the first six months 1994.  The largest expenditures were for (1)
continued construction of a new facility at the Salsbury site in Charles City,
Iowa to increase production levels for several products; and (2) a facility at
Nobel Chemicals in Karlskoga, Sweden to increase capacity for pharmaceutical
intermediates.  Capital expenditures are in line with the projected spending in
1995 of $35,000.

The Company has undrawn borrowing capacity of approximately $42,000 under the
Credit Agreement as of June 30, 1995, which can be used for general corporate
purposes.  Management is of the opinion that these amounts, together with other
available sources of capital, are adequate for meeting the Company's
anticipated financing and capital requirements.

During the second quarter 1995, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.05 per
share.


SUBSEQUENT EVENT:

On July 24, 1995, the Company completed a public offering of 1,725,000 shares @
$38.75 per share.  The net proceeds received of $63,497 will be used to pay
short-term indebtedness of $50,000 and $13,497 in long-term indebtedness.
