ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET SALES
Net sales for the first quarter ended March 25, 1996 increased 9.8% to
$106.9 million from $97.3 million for the quarter ended March 25, 1995. The
primary reason for the increase in sales was the aroma chemicals segment, which
recorded growth in sales of 27.2% over the first quarter of 1995. This growth
mainly reflects increased volume of chemical shipments under a long-term supply
agreement with a major customer. The flavor and fragrance segment recorded
growth in first quarter sales of 5.6% over the first quarter of 1995 with the
increases being in Europe and the Americas regions. Net sales in both product
segments were adversely affected by the movement in foreign currency exchange
rates, primarily the Pound Sterling and currencies in India and Turkey, versus
the U.S. dollar. If exchange rates had remained unchanged from the first quarter
1995 to the first quarter 1996, the increase in total net sales would have been
approximately 12%.
COST OF GOODS SOLD
Cost of goods sold in the first quarter of 1996 increased to $67.5
million from $60.8 million in the first quarter of 1995 due primarily to
increased sales. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased to
63.2% from 62.5% reflecting significantly higher raw material turpentine costs.
SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling and administrative expenses in first quarter of 1996 increased
to $22.1 million from $20.5 million in the first quarter of 1995. This increase
includes the effect of additional sales and marketing personnel for the flavor
and fragrance segment. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of
net sales decreased to 20.6% from 21.0%.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
Research and development expenses in the first quarter of 1996 increased
to $5.4 million from $4.8 million in the first quarter of 1995. The increase is
due primarily to additional creative and technical personnel for the flavor and
fragrance segment, and for services performed by Union Camp at its research
facility in Princeton, New Jersey. Research and development expenses as a
percentage of net sales was 5.0% for both periods.
INCOME FROM OPERATIONS
Income from operations in the first quarter of 1996 increased to $11.9
million from $11.2 million in the first quarter of 1995. Income from operations,
exclusive of corporate items, for the flavor and fragrance segment was $10.1
million compared to $10.7 million in the first quarter of 1995. A decrease in
operating income was reported in all regions except Europe. The Company's aroma
chemical segment recorded first quarter operating income (exclusive of corporate
items) of $7.1 million in 1996, compared to $4.7 million in the first quarter of
1995. Improved product mix resulting from large volume contract sales and
operating efficiencies at the Company's aroma chemical plants were the primary
reasons for the increase in operating income.

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET
Other (income) expense for the first quarter of 1996 was $600,000
expense compared to $600,000 income in the first quarter of 1995 which included
interest income received on foreign tax refunds and a gain on the sale of
surplus land in the UK.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense for the first quarter of 1996 decreased to $700,000
from $900,000 in the first quarter of 1995. The decrease in interest expense is
primarily due to capitalized interest on a manufacturing facility being
constructed in China.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense in the first quarter of 1996 decreased to $3.6
million from $4.1 million in the first quarter of 1995 primarily due to higher
foreign tax credits. The Company's effective tax rate in the first quarter of
1996 decreased to 34.2% from 37.0% for the first quarter of 1995.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash flows provided by operations for the three months ended March 25,
1996 were $4.5 million compared to $6.9 million for the three months ended March
25, 1995. The decrease is primarily due to changes in operational assets and
liabilities, mainly from a reduction in accounts payable and other accrued
liabilities during the first quarter of 1996.
At March 25, 1996, working capital of the Company was $96.6 million, a
$2.9 million increase from $93.7 million at December 25, 1995. The change in
working capital is primarily due to the decrease in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities, partially offset by an increase in income and other taxes payable.
As of March 25, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4.5
million. The Company believes that its available cash, funds provided by
operations and available borrowing capacity under its credit facilities will be
sufficient to support its debt service, working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for the foreseeable future, including implementation of its
strategy to strengthen its position as a leading producer of flavors, fragrances
and aroma chemicals and for long-term growth.
