NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

(unaudited)

1.  Description of Business

Phibro Animal Health Corporation (“Phibro” or “PAHC”) and its subsidiaries (together, the “Company”) is a diversified global developer, manufacturer and marketer of a broad range of animal health and mineral nutrition products for food and companion animals including poultry, swine, beef and dairy cattle, aquaculture and dogs. The Company is also a manufacturer and marketer of performance products for use in the personal care, industrial chemical and chemical catalyst industries. Unless otherwise indicated or the context requires otherwise, references in this report to “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar expressions refer to Phibro and its subsidiaries.

The unaudited consolidated financial information for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, is presented on the same basis as the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 (the “Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 30, 2023 (File no. 001-36410). In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods, and the adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The financial results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet information as of June 30, 2023, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The unaudited consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Phibro and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements. The decision to consolidate an entity requires consideration of majority voting interests, as well as effective control over the entity.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards

Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report. As of December 31, 2023, there have been no material changes to any of the significant accounting policies contained therein.

Net Income (Loss) per Share and Weighted Average Shares

Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period.

Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period after giving effect to dilutive common share equivalents, resulting from the assumed vesting of performance-based restricted stock units, unless the effect would be antidilutive. No common share equivalents were included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 because the performance-based criteria were not attained in the period.

New Accounting Standards

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requires the disclosure of significant segment expenses that are included in segment profit or loss and how the segment measures are used for decision-making. The ASU will be effective for Phibro’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, including retrospective disclosure for all prior periods presented, and interim periods subsequent to June 30, 2025. We are evaluating both the impact to our segment disclosures and the possibility of early adoption of the ASU.

ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, enhances income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The ASU outlines specific categories to be provided in the rate reconciliation and requires additional information for those reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The ASU requires disaggregated disclosure of federal, state and foreign income taxes paid, including disaggregation by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid (net of refunds received) is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). The ASU also requires disaggregated disclosure of federal, state and foreign income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes. The enhanced disclosures will be applied on a prospective basis and are required for Phibro’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. We are evaluating the impact of the additional income tax-related disclosures.

3.  Statements of Operations—Additional Information

Disaggregated revenue, deferred revenue and customer payment terms

We develop, manufacture and market a broad range of products for food and companion animals including poultry, swine, beef and dairy cattle, aquaculture, and dogs. The products help prevent, control and treat diseases and enhance nutrition to help improve animal health and well-being. We sell animal health and mineral nutrition products directly to integrated poultry, cattle and swine customers and through commercial animal feed manufacturers, distributors and veterinarians. The animal health industry and demand for many of the animal health products in a particular region are affected by changing disease pressures and by weather conditions, as product usage follows varying weather patterns and seasons. Our operations are primarily focused on regions where the majority of livestock production is consolidated in large commercial farms.

We have a diversified portfolio of products that are classified within our three business segments—Animal Health, Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products. Each segment has its own dedicated management and sales team.

Animal Health

The Animal Health business develops, manufactures and markets products in three main categories:

MFAs and other: MFAs and other products primarily consist of concentrated medicated products administered through animal feeds, commonly referred to as Medicated Feed Additives (“MFAs”). Specific product classifications include

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

antibacterials, which inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria that cause bacterial infections in animals; anticoccidials, which inhibit the growth of coccidia (parasites) that damage the intestinal tract of animals; and other related products. The MFAs and other category also includes antibacterials and other processing aids used in the ethanol fermentation industry.
Nutritional specialties: Nutritional specialty products enhance nutrition to help improve health and performance in areas such as immune system function and digestive health. We are also a developer, manufacturer and marketer of microbial products and bioproducts for a variety of applications serving animal health and nutrition, environmental, industrial and agricultural customers.
--- ---
Vaccines: Vaccine products are primarily focused on preventing diseases in poultry, swine, beef and dairy cattle and aquaculture. They protect animals from either viral or bacterial disease challenges. We develop, manufacture and market conventionally licensed and autogenous vaccine products, as well as adjuvants for animal vaccine manufacturers. We have developed and market an innovative and proprietary delivery platform for vaccines.
--- ---

Mineral Nutrition

The Mineral Nutrition business is comprised of formulations and concentrations of trace minerals such as zinc, manganese, copper, iron and other compounds, with a focus on customers in North America. Our customers use these products to fortify the daily feed requirements of their livestock’s diets and maintain an optimal balance of trace elements in each animal. We manufacture and market a broad range of mineral nutrition products for food animals including poultry, swine, and beef and dairy cattle.

Performance Products

The Performance Products business manufactures and markets specialty ingredients for use in the personal care, industrial chemical and chemical catalyst industries.

The following tables present our revenues disaggregated by major product category and geographic region:

Pension Settlement

In July 2023, we entered into an annuity purchase agreement to irrevocably transfer a portion of our pension benefit obligation to a third-party insurance company. The annuity purchase price was $26,381 and was approximately equal to the benefit obligation transferred. The annuity purchase was funded from pension assets. We recognized a partial settlement of the pension plan, resulting from the recognition of net pension losses previously included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. We recorded $249 and $10,674 of expense in selling, general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of operations during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively.

5.  Debt

Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities

In April 2021, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) under which we had a term A loan in an aggregate initial principal amount of $300,000 (the “2021 Term A Loan”) and a revolving credit facility under 12

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

which we could borrow up to an aggregate amount of $250,000, subject to the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement (the “2021 Revolver”). In November 2022, we amended the 2021 Credit Facilities to increase the revolving commitments under the 2021 Revolver to an aggregate amount of $310,000 and to adopt Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the reference for the fluctuating rate of interest on the 2021 Credit Facilities, replacing the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) reference rate. In June 2023, we obtained an additional incremental term loan (the “2023 Incremental Term Loan”) in the amount of $50,000 (the 2021 Revolver, the 2021 Term A Loan and the 2023 Incremental Term Loan are collectively referred to as the “2021 Credit Facilities”).

The 2021 Term A Loan and the 2023 Incremental Term Loan are repayable in quarterly installments, with the balances payable at maturity. The 2021 Revolver contains a letter of credit facility. The interest rate per annum applicable to the 2021 Revolver and the 2021 Term A Loan is based on a fluctuating rate of interest plus an applicable rate equal to 1.50%, 1.75%, 2.00% or 2.25%, in the case of adjusted SOFR rate loans and 0.50%, 0.75%, 1.00% or 1.25%, in the case of base rate loans. The interest rate per annum applicable to the 2023 Incremental Term Loan is based on a fluctuating rate of interest plus an applicable rate equal to 2.00%, 2.25%, 2.50% or 2.75%, in the case of adjusted SOFR rate loans and 1.00%, 1.25%, 1.50% or 1.75%, in the case of base rate loans. The applicable rates are based on the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2021 Credit Agreement, as amended). The 2021 Credit Facilities mature in April 2026.

The 2021 Credit Agreement requires, among other things, compliance with financial covenants that permit: (i) a maximum First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of 4.00:1.00 (or, specifically with respect to the test periods ending December 31, 2023, March 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024, a maximum of 4.25:1.00); and (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.00:1.00, each calculated on a trailing four-quarter basis. The 2021 Credit Agreement contains an acceleration clause should an event of default (as defined in the 2021 Credit Agreement) occur. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the financial covenants.

As of December 31, 2023, we had $151,000 in borrowings drawn under the 2021 Revolver and had outstanding letters of credit of $2,479, leaving $156,521 available for further borrowings and letters of credit under the 2021 Revolver, subject to restrictions in our 2021 Credit Facilities. We obtain letters of credit in connection with certain regulatory and insurance obligations, inventory purchases and other contractual obligations. The terms of these letters of credit are all less than one year.

Interest Rates

Interest rates as of the balance sheet dates and the weighted-average rates for the periods presented were:

Six Months
December 31, June 30, Ended December 31
2023 2023 2023 2022
2021 Revolver 6.14 % 6.09 % 6.19 % 4.57 %
2021 Term A Loan 2.36 % 2.36 % 2.36 % 2.37 %
2023 Incremental Term Loan 7.73 % 7.44 % 7.62 %
2022 Term Loan 7.46 % 7.25 % 7.39 % 5.74 %

Interest rates as of the balance sheet dates are based on rates in effect as of those dates, including SOFR fluctuating rates of interest, applicable rates and the interest rate swap agreement.

We are a party to an interest rate swap agreement on $300,000 of notional principal that effectively converts the floating SOFR portion of our interest obligation on that amount of debt to a fixed rate of 0.61% through June 2025. We designated the interest rate swap as a highly effective cash flow hedge. For additional details, see “Note 9 — Derivatives.” 13

Other Long-Term Debt

In September 2022, we entered into a credit agreement (the “2022 Term Loan”) in the amount of $12,000, collateralized by certain facilities. The 2022 Term Loan matures in September 2027. The interest rate per annum applicable to the 2022 Term Loan is based on a fluctuating rate of interest, at the Company’s election from time to time, equal to either (i) one-month adjusted SOFR plus 2.00%, or (ii) a base rate determined by reference to the greater of (a) the prime rate and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%. The 2022 Term Loan is repayable in monthly installments of $35, with the balance payable at maturity.

Certain relatives of Jack C. Bendheim, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, provided services to the Company as employees or consultants and received aggregate compensation and benefits of approximately $378 and $397 during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and $817 and $1,177 during the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Mr. Bendheim has sole authority to vote shares of our stock owned by BFI Co., LLC, an investment vehicle of the Bendheim family.

7. Stock Incentive Plan

Restricted Stock Units

In July 2023, our Board of Directors approved the grant of 300,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to an officer of the Company, pursuant to the Company's 2008 Incentive Plan and the RSU award agreement. Each RSU represents the right to receive a share of our common stock upon vesting. The RSUs are subject to performance-based vesting. The RSUs will vest on June 30, 2027, subject to continuation of employment on such date, in increments of 10% (but no less than 20%) (with linear interpolation between increments) based upon the arithmetic average of the Company’s closing stock price per share for each trading day in the 90-calendar day period ending on the vesting date (the “90-Day Average”). None of the RSUs will vest if the 90-Day Average is below $20, and 100% of the RSUs will vest if the 90-Day Average is $60 or above. In the event of a change in control of the Company, following which either (i) 100% of the shares of stock cease to be traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange and the Company is no longer listed on any such exchange or (ii) a Qualifying Termination occurs within 12 months, all unvested RSUs will immediately vest in full.

We used a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the grant date fair value of the RSUs. Assumptions used by the model were based on information as of the grant date and included a risk-free rate of return, expected volatility and an expected dividend yield. The risk-free rate of return is based on U.S. treasury yields for bonds with similar maturities. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected dividend yield considers estimated annual dividends and the closing share price of the underlying common stock. 14

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

The total grant date fair value of the RSUs was $1,284, equivalent to $4.28 per share. We will recognize the total grant date fair value of the RSUs as stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense related to the RSUs was $80 and $161 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively. We expect stock-based compensation expense related to the RSUs will be $321 in each of the years ending June 30, 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027.

8.  Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental

Our operations and properties are subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations, including those governing pollution; protection of the environment; the use, management, and release of hazardous materials, substances and wastes; air emissions; greenhouse gas emissions; water use, supply and discharges; the investigation and remediation of contamination; the manufacture, distribution, and sale of regulated materials, including pesticides; the importing, exporting and transportation of products; and the health and safety of our employees (collectively, “Environmental Laws”). As such, the nature of our current and former operations exposes us to the risk of claims with respect to such matters, including fines, penalties, and remediation obligations that may be imposed by regulatory authorities. Under certain circumstances, we might be required to curtail operations until a particular problem is remedied. Known costs and expenses under Environmental Laws incidental to ongoing operations, including the cost of litigation proceedings relating to environmental matters, are included within operating results. Potential costs and expenses may also be incurred in connection with the repair or upgrade of facilities to meet existing or new requirements under Environmental Laws or to investigate or remediate potential or actual contamination, and from time to time we establish reserves for such contemplated investigation and remediation costs. In many instances, the ultimate costs under Environmental Laws and the period during which such costs are likely to be incurred are difficult to predict.

While we believe that our operations are currently in material compliance with Environmental Laws, we have, from time to time, received notices of violation from governmental authorities, and have been involved in civil or criminal action for such violations. Additionally, at various sites, our subsidiaries are engaged in continuing investigation, remediation and/or monitoring efforts to address contamination associated with historic operations of the sites. We devote considerable resources to complying with Environmental Laws and managing environmental liabilities. We have developed programs to identify requirements under, and maintain compliance with Environmental Laws; however, we cannot predict with certainty the effect of increased and more stringent regulation on our operations, future capital expenditure requirements, or the cost of compliance.

The nature of our current and former operations exposes us to the risk of claims with respect to environmental matters and we cannot assure we will not incur material costs and liabilities in connection with such claims. Based on our experience, we believe that the future cost of compliance with existing Environmental Laws, and liabilities for known environmental claims pursuant to such Environmental Laws, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) is investigating and planning for the remediation of offsite contaminated groundwater that has migrated from the Omega Chemical Corporation Superfund Site (“Omega Chemical Site”), which is upgradient of the Santa Fe Springs, California facility of our subsidiary, Phibro-Tech, Inc. (“Phibro-Tech”). The EPA has entered into a settlement agreement with a group of companies that sent chemicals to the Omega Chemical Site for processing and recycling (“OPOG”) to remediate the contaminated groundwater that has migrated from the Omega Chemical Site in accordance with a general remedy selected by the EPA. The EPA has named Phibro-Tech and certain other subsidiaries of PAHC as potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) due to groundwater contamination from Phibro-Tech’s Santa Fe Springs facility that has allegedly commingled with contaminated groundwater from the Omega Chemical Site. In September 2012, the EPA notified approximately 140 PRPs, including Phibro-Tech and the other subsidiaries, that they have been identified as potentially responsible for remedial action for the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site and for EPA oversight and response costs. Phibro-Tech contends that any groundwater contamination at its site is localized and due to historical operations that pre-date Phibro-Tech and/or contaminated groundwater that has migrated from upgradient properties. In addition, a successor to a prior owner of the Phibro-Tech site has asserted that PAHC and Phibro-Tech are obligated to provide indemnification for its potential liability and defense costs relating to the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site. PAHC and Phibro-Tech have vigorously contested this position and have asserted that the successor to the prior owner is required to indemnify Phibro-Tech for its potential liability and defense costs. In 2014, 15

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

several members of OPOG filed a complaint under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against many of the PRPs allegedly associated with the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site (including Phibro-Tech) for contribution toward past and future costs associated with the investigation and remediation of the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site. In August 2022, the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), on behalf of the EPA, sent Phibro-Tech and certain other PRPs a pre-litigation notice letter regarding potential CERCLA Sec. 107 cost recovery claims seeking unrecovered past costs related to the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site, along with a declaration allocating liability for future costs.

In February 2023, the plaintiffs in the OPOG lawsuit and certain defendants in the OPOG lawsuit, including Phibro-Tech, signed a definitive settlement agreement that provides for a “cash-out” settlement, with contribution protection, for Phibro-Tech and its affiliates (as well as certain other defendants) releasing Phibro-Tech and its affiliates from liability for contamination of the groundwater plume affected by the Omega Chemical Site (with certain exceptions), including past and future EPA response costs that were the subject of the August 2022 pre-litigation notice letter sent by the DOJ on behalf of the EPA. As part of the settlement, Phibro-Tech also resolved all claims for indemnification and contribution between Phibro-Tech and the successor to the prior owner of the Phibro-Tech site. The definitive settlement agreement contemplates cash payments by Phibro-Tech and one of its affiliates over a period ending in February 2024. The definitive settlement agreement is subject to formal approval by the EPA, the DOJ and the district court.

Based upon information available, to the extent such costs can be estimated with reasonable certainty, we estimated the cost for further investigation and remediation of identified soil and groundwater problems at operating sites, closed sites and third-party sites, and closure costs for closed sites, including the remaining liability for the OPOG lawsuit described in the preceding paragraph, to be approximately $8,475 and $8,505 at December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively, which is included in current and long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. However, future events, such as new information, changes in existing Environmental Laws or their interpretation, and more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies, may give rise to additional expenditures or liabilities that could be material. For all purposes of the discussion under this caption and elsewhere in this report, it should be noted that we take and have taken the position that neither PAHC nor any of our subsidiaries are liable for environmental or other claims made against one or more of our other subsidiaries or for which any of such other subsidiaries may ultimately be responsible.

Claims and Litigation

PAHC and its subsidiaries are party to various claims and lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business including product liabilities, payment disputes and governmental regulation. Certain of these actions seek damages in various amounts. In many cases, such claims are covered by insurance. We believe that none of the claims or pending lawsuits, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.

9.  Derivatives

We monitor our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates and from time-to-time use derivatives to manage certain of these risks. We designate derivatives as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of the cash flows to be received or paid in the future related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge). All changes in the fair value of a highly effective cash flow hedge are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

We routinely assess whether the derivatives used to hedge transactions are effective. If we determine a derivative ceases to be an effective hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting in the period of the assessment for that derivative, and immediately recognize any unrealized gains or losses related to the fair value of that derivative in the consolidated statements of operations.

We record derivatives at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. For additional details regarding fair value, see “Note 10 — Fair Value Measurements.” 16

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

We are a party to an interest rate swap agreement on $300,000 of notional principal that effectively converts the floating SOFR portion of our interest obligation on that amount of debt to a fixed rate of 0.61% through June 2025. We designated the interest rate swap as a highly effective cash flow hedge.

The consolidated balance sheet includes the net fair values of our outstanding foreign currency option contracts within the respective line items, based on the net financial position and maturity date of the individual contracts. The consolidated balance sheet includes the net fair values of our outstanding interest rate swap within the respective balance sheet line items, based on the expected timing of the cash flows. The consolidated balance sheet includes assets and liabilities for the fair values of outstanding derivatives that are designated and effective as cash flow hedges as follows:

(Income) expense recorded in comprehensive income (loss) $ 5,966 $ 1,554 $ 7,524 $ (5,719)

We recognize gains and losses related to certain foreign currency derivatives as a component of cost of goods sold at the time the hedged item is sold. Inventory as of December 31, 2023, included realized net gains of $1,317 related to matured contracts. We anticipate the net gains included in inventory will be recognized in cost of goods sold within the next twelve to eighteen months.

10.  Fair Value Measurements

Short-term Investments

Our short-term investments consist of cash deposits held at financial institutions. We consider the carrying amounts of these short-term investments to be representative of their fair value.

Current Assets and Liabilities

We consider the carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities to be representative of their fair value because of the current nature of these items.

Debt

We record debt, including term loans and revolver balances, at amortized cost in our consolidated financial statements. We believe the carrying value of the debt is approximately equal to its fair value, due to the variable nature of the instruments and our evaluation of estimated market prices.

Derivatives

We determine the fair value of derivative instruments based upon pricing models using observable market inputs for these types of financial instruments, such as spot and forward currency exchange rates.

Non-financial Assets

Our non-financial assets, which primarily consist of goodwill, other intangible assets, property and equipment, and lease-related right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and instead are reported at carrying value in the consolidated balance sheet. Assets and liabilities may be required to be measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, either upon initial recognition or for subsequent accounting or reporting, including the initial recognition of net assets acquired in a business combination. These fair value measurements involve unobservable inputs that reflect estimates and assumptions that represent Level 3 inputs.

Fair Value of Assets (Liabilities)

There were no transfers between levels during the periods presented.

11.  Business Segments

We evaluate performance and allocate resources, based on the Animal Health, Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products segments. Certain of our costs and assets are not directly attributable to these segments and we refer to these items as Corporate. We do not allocate Corporate costs or assets to the segments because they are not used to evaluate the segments’ operating results or financial position. Corporate costs include certain costs related to executive management, business technology, legal, finance, human resources and business development. The accounting policies of our segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies included herein. 18

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

We evaluate performance of our segments based on Adjusted EBITDA. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as income before income taxes plus (a) interest expense, net, (b) depreciation and amortization, (c) (income) loss from, and disposal of, discontinued operations, (d) other expense or less other income, as separately reported on our consolidated statements of operations, including foreign currency (gains) losses, net and (e) certain items that we consider to be unusual, non-operational or non-recurring.

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

Introduction

Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) is provided to assist readers in understanding our performance, as reflected in the results of our operations, our financial condition and our cash flows. The following discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting our consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows as of and for the periods presented below. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our future results could differ materially from our historical performance as a result of various factors such as those discussed in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report and “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview of our business

Phibro Animal Health Corporation is a leading global diversified animal health and mineral nutrition company. We develop, manufacture and market a broad range of products for food and companion animals including poultry, swine, beef and dairy cattle, aquaculture, and dogs. Our products help prevent, control and treat diseases, and support nutrition to help improve animal health and well-being. In addition to animal health and mineral nutrition products, we manufacture and market specific ingredients for use in the personal care, industrial chemical and chemical catalyst industries.

Armed Conflicts

Hamas and Israel

On October 7, 2023, Hamas militants crossed into Israel from Gaza in a large-scale, surprise terrorist attack. Hamas terrorists invaded Israel, first firing rockets into the country and then carrying out attacks inflicting mass casualties with hundreds more taken hostage. In order to provide immediate assistance to the victims of the attacks and their families, we and our employees provided monetary donations that were distributed to charities that offered relief services, welfare, equipment, food and other necessities.

We have three manufacturing sites in Israel. A manufacturing plant in Neot Hovav that produces active pharmaceutical ingredients for certain of our anticoccidial and antimicrobial products, a facility in Beit Shemesh that produces vaccines and a plant in Petah Tikvah that manufactures premix products and nutritional products. In addition, we have an office location near Tel Aviv in Airport City. As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately 500 employees located in Israel. While we initially had some disruption to our operations at the onset of the conflict, at the current time, we have confidence in our ability to meet our supply commitment to customers and maintain sufficient inventory to continue regional support. While the situation surrounding the ongoing conflict remains fluid, our operations in Israel have navigated numerous challenging situations over the years.

The prolonged continuation or escalation of this conflict may trigger bans, economic and other sanctions, as well as broader military conflict, which could include neighboring nations. The potential impact of the current conflict, or escalation thereof, on our business is unclear but may include, without limitation, the possible disruption of our operations, particularly at our facilities in Israel, supply chain and logistics disruptions, personnel and raw material shortages, and other consequences, including as a result of the actions of, or disruption of the operations of, certain regulatory and governmental authorities and of certain of our suppliers, collaborative partners, licensees, manufacturing sites, distributors and customers. Our Israeli manufacturing facilities and local operations account for 27% of our consolidated assets as of December 31, 2023, and 19% of our consolidated net sales, for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

Russia and Ukraine

In response to the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine that began in February 2022, we and our employees provided support to Ukraine in the form of monetary donations, free products and humanitarian services. Our limited intent for the Russian market is to continue to provide medicines and vaccines, and related regulatory and technical support, to help existing customers combat disease challenges in the production of food animals on their farms. We have no production or direct distribution operations and no planned investments in Russia. 21

Table of Contents Since the conflict began, the United States and other North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) member states, as well as non-member states, announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, including certain Russian citizens and enterprises. The continuation or escalation of the conflict may trigger additional economic and other sanctions, as well as broader military conflict. The potential impacts of any resulting bans, sanctions, boycotts or broader military conflicts on our business are uncertain. The potential impacts could include supply chain and logistics disruptions, macroeconomic impacts resulting from the exclusion of Russian financial institutions from the global banking system, volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, inflationary pressures on raw materials and energy as well as heightened cybersecurity threats. Our sales to Russia and Ukraine for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, represented approximately 1% of consolidated net sales.

We cannot know if the conflict could escalate and result in broader economic and security concerns that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Regulatory developments

In April 2016, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) began initial steps to withdraw approval of carbadox (the active ingredient in our Mecadox product) via a regulatory process known as a Notice of Opportunity for Hearing (“NOOH”), due to concerns that certain residues from the product may persist in animal tissues for longer than previously determined. In the years following, Phibro has continued an ongoing process of responding collaboratively and transparently to the FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine (“CVM”) inquiries and has provided extensive and meticulous research and data that confirmed the safety of carbadox. In July 2020, the FDA announced it would not proceed to a hearing on the scientific concerns raised in the 2016 NOOH, consistent with the normal regulatory procedure, but instead announced that it was withdrawing the 2016 NOOH and issuing a proposed order to review the regulatory method for carbadox. Phibro reiterated the safety of carbadox and the appropriateness of the regulatory method and offered to work with the CVM to generate additional data to support the existing regulatory method or select a suitable alternative regulatory method.

In March 2022, the FDA held a Part 15 virtual public hearing seeking data and information related to the safety of carbadox in which Phibro participated and again detailed the extensive research and data that confirm the safety of carbadox. In November 2023, the FDA issued a final order to revoke the approved method for detecting residues of carbadox. The FDA also provided notice in the Federal Register proposing to withdraw approval of all new animal drug applications (NADAs) providing for use of carbadox in medicated swine feed and announcing an opportunity for Phibro to request a hearing on this proposal. This second action is based on CVM’s determination that there is no approved regulatory method to detect carbadox residues in the edible tissues of the treated swine. Phibro is taking the next steps to continue to defend swine producers’ ability to use Mecadox. We have formally requested a full evidentiary hearing on the merits before an administrative law judge. In January 2024, Phibro filed a lawsuit in the D.C. Federal District Court asking the court to invalidate the order which revoked the regulatory method for carbadox. Should we be unable to successfully defend the safety of the product, the loss of carbadox sales will have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Sales of Mecadox (carbadox) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 were approximately $18 million. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Mecadox continues to be available for use by swine producers. For additional information, see also “Business — Compliance with Government Regulation — United States — Carbadox”; and “Business — Compliance with Government Regulation — Global Policy and Guidance” in Item 1 of our Annual Report. 22

Comparison of three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

Net sales

Net sales of $249.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, increased $5.3 million, or 2%, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. Animal Health increased $9.3 million. Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products decreased $0.3 million and $3.7 million, respectively.

Animal Health

Net sales of $173.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, increased $9.3 million, or 6%. Net sales of MFAs and other increased $4.8 million, or 5%, due to increased demand for our MFAs in international regions and for our processing aids used in the ethanol fermentation industry. Net sales of nutritional specialty products decreased $2.4 million, or 6%, mostly due to lower domestic dairy demand. Net sales of vaccines increased $7.0 million, or 31%, primarily due to poultry product introductions in Latin America, plus an increase in domestic demand.

Mineral Nutrition

Net sales of $61.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $0.3 million, or less than 1%, primarily due to declines in average selling prices and some reduction in sales volume.

Performance Products

Net sales of $15.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $3.7 million, or 19%, driven by decreased demand for personal care product ingredients and industrial chemicals.

Gross profit

Gross profit of $78.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, increased $1.2 million, or 2%, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. Gross margin decreased 10 basis points to 31.5% of net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 31.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2022, due to decreased sales and unfavorable product mix in Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products.

Animal Health gross profit increased $4.1 million, primarily driven by higher sales volume and favorable product mix. Mineral Nutrition gross profit decreased $1.0 million, driven by lower sales volume and an increase in raw material costs. Performance Products gross profit decreased $1.6 million as a result of lower product demand and an increase in raw material costs. Acquisition-related cost of goods sold reduced gross profit by $0.3 million.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) of $62.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, increased $1.4 million, or 2%, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. SG&A for the three months ended December 31, 2023, included a $4.2 million cost for an unfavorable litigation result related to Brazil employment taxes paid from January 2013 through December 2015, an additional $0.3 million true-up to the pension settlement cost and $0.1 million for stock-based compensation. SG&A for the three months ended December 31, 2022, included $6.6 million of environmental remediation costs. Excluding these items, SG&A increased $3.4 million, or 6%.

Animal Health SG&A increased $2.3 million, primarily due to an increase in employee-related costs to support increased demand in Latin America and Asia Pacific. Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products SG&A was comparable to the prior year. Corporate costs increased by $1.4 million, driven by the planned increase in strategic investments. 26

Table of Contents

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net of $4.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, increased by $0.8 million, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022, as a result of higher variable interest rates and slightly increased debt levels.

Foreign currency losses (gains), net

Foreign currency losses, net for the three months ended December 31, 2023, were $7.5 million, as compared to $(0.1) million of net gains for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Current period losses were driven by fluctuations in certain currencies related to the U.S. dollar, including a major devaluation in Argentina.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for income taxes was $2.3 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective income tax rates were 64.3% and 40.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2023, increased due to an unfavorable mix of pre-tax income and related tax provisions in the various jurisdictions where we have operations and the relatively greater effect of certain items such as Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) on reduced pre-tax income.

Net income

Net income of $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $5.9 million, as compared to net income of $7.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Operating income decreased $0.1 million, driven by higher SG&A, offset by favorable gross profit. Gross profit increased as a result of higher product demand in the Animal Health segment. SG&A included a $4.2 million cost for an unfavorable litigation result related to Brazil employment taxes paid from January 2013 through December 2015. Interest expense, net increased $0.8 million and foreign currency exchange resulted in increased losses of $7.6 million. Income tax expense increased by $2.6 million.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA of $29.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $1.5 million, or 5%, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. Animal Health Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.2 million due to gross profit from increased sales, partially offset by higher SG&A. Mineral Nutrition Adjusted EBITDA decreased $0.9 million, driven by lower gross profit. Performance Products Adjusted EBITDA decreased $1.5 million due to lower product demand and unfavorable product mix. Corporate expenses increased $1.3 million, driven by increased strategic investments.

Adjusted provision for income taxes

The adjusted provision for income taxes was $4.9 million and $7.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The adjusted effective income tax rates were 26.7% and 34.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The improvement in our adjusted effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2023, was driven by a favorable mix of pre-tax income and the benefit of recently implemented global tax structuring.

Adjusted net income

Adjusted net income of $13.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $0.3 million, or 2%, as compared to the prior year. Increased adjusted gross profit, driven by sales growth, was offset by higher adjusted SG&A and higher adjusted interest expense, net, with a partial benefit from a reduced adjusted provision for income taxes. Adjusted SG&A increased due to strategic investments and increased employee-related costs and adjusted interest expense, net, increased due to higher variable interest rates. 27

Foreign currency losses, net

Foreign currency losses, net for the six months ended December 31, 2023, were $14.2 million, as compared to net losses of $5.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022. Current period losses were driven by fluctuations in certain currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, primarily related to a major devaluation in Argentina.

Provision for income taxes

The benefit for income taxes was $1.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, and the provision for income taxes was $6.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The effective income tax rates were 19.9% and 36.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was unfavorably affected by the mix of pre-tax income and related tax provisions in the various jurisdictions where we have operations and the relatively greater effect of certain items such as GILTI on reduced pre-tax income. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2023, included (i) a $1.2 million benefit related to the determination of whether a foreign tax is eligible for a U.S. foreign tax credit related to our fiscal year 2023, based on Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) guidance provided subsequent to our fiscal year-end, (ii) a $0.4 million benefit related to the release of certain valuation allowances on non-U.S. companies and (iii) a $0.3 million expense from changes in uncertain tax positions related to prior years. The effective income tax rate, without these discrete items, would have been 4.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2022, included a $0.9 million benefit related to exchange rate differences on intercompany dividends and a $0.2 million expense from changes in uncertain tax positions related to prior years. The effective income tax rate, without these items, would have been 41.0% for the six months ended December 31, 2022.

Net income

Net loss of $6.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $17.8 million, as compared to net income of $11.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022. Operating income decreased $14.6 million driven by higher SG&A, slightly offset by higher gross profit. SG&A increased by $14.9 million due to pension settlement costs of $10.7 million and Brazil employment taxes of $4.2 million. Changes in interest expense, net and foreign currency losses resulted in a $2.3 million and $9.1 million reduction in income before income taxes, respectively. Income tax expense decreased $8.1 million.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA of $48.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $4.9 million, or 9%, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2022. Animal Health Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.8 million, resulting from higher sales and increased gross profit, partially offset by higher SG&A. Mineral Nutrition Adjusted EBITDA decreased $3.3 million, due to decreased sales and gross profit. Performance Products Adjusted EBITDA decreased $2.4 million, driven by decreased sales and gross profit. Corporate expenses increased $3.0 million due to increased employee-related costs and strategic investments.

Adjusted provision for income taxes

The adjusted provision for income taxes was $7.0 million and $11.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The adjusted effective income tax rates for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, were 27.0% and 34.9%, respectively. The improvement in our adjusted effective income tax rate during the six months ended December 31, 2023, was driven by a favorable mix of pre-tax income and the benefit of recently implemented global tax structuring. 29

Table of Contents

Adjusted net income

Adjusted net income of $19.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $3.1 million, or 14.1%, as compared to the prior year. The decrease was driven by higher adjusted SG&A and higher adjusted interest expense, net, partially offset by slightly improved adjusted gross profit and a partial benefit from a reduced adjusted provision for income taxes. Adjusted SG&A increased due to strategic investments and increased employee-related costs and adjusted interest expense, net, increased due to higher variable interest rates.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share

Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.47 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $0.08, or 14%, as compared to the adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.55 in the prior year.

Operating activities

Operating activities provided $47.8 million of net cash for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Cash provided by net income (loss) and non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, was $25.3 million. We paid $8.7 million of net interest expense and $9.1 million in income taxes, net. Cash provided in the ordinary course of business from changes in operating assets and 30

Table of Contents liabilities and other items was $17.5 million. Accounts receivable provided $14.3 million of cash due to timing of sales and an improvement in days sales outstanding. Inventories used $7.5 million of cash due to increased raw material and production costs, and increased quantities on hand due to forecasted future demand and internal production schedules. Accounts payable provided $11.5 million of cash due to timing of purchases and payments. Accrued expenses and other liabilities provided cash of $2.4 million, primarily due to timing of incurrence and payments for professional fees.

Investing activities

Investing activities used $40.2 million of net cash for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Capital expenditures totaled $18.4 million, as we continue to invest in expanding production capacity and productivity improvements. Net purchases and maturities of our short-term investments used $19.5 million in cash. We acquired a business for $3.3 million, net of cash acquired.

Financing activities

Financing activities used $13.4 million of net cash for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Net borrowings on our 2021 Revolver provided $10.0 million in cash. We paid $13.7 million in scheduled debt maturities and insurance premium financing. We paid $9.7 million in dividends to holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock.

Liquidity and capital resources

We believe our cash on hand, operating cash flows and financing arrangements, including the availability of borrowings under the 2021 Revolver and foreign credit lines, will be sufficient to support our ongoing cash needs. We are aware of the current and potential future effects of the macroeconomic market conditions in the financial markets. At this time, we expect adequate liquidity for at least the next twelve months. However, we can provide no assurance that our liquidity and capital resources will be adequate for future funding requirements. We believe we will comply with the terms of the covenants under the 2021 Credit Facilities and foreign credit lines based on our operating plan. In the event of adverse operating results and/or violation of covenants under the facilities, there can be no assurance we would be able to obtain waivers or amendments. Other risks to our meeting future funding requirements include global economic conditions and macroeconomic, business and financial disruptions that could arise. There can be no assurance that a challenging economic environment or an economic downturn would not affect our liquidity or ability to obtain future financing or fund operations or investment opportunities. In addition, our debt covenants may restrict our ability to invest.

Certain relevant measures of our liquidity and capital resources follow:

**** December 31, **** June 30,
As of **** 2023 **** 2023
(in thousands, except ratios)
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments $ 92,493 $ 81,281
Working capital 332,403 350,737
Ratio of current assets to current liabilities 3.06:1 3.28:1

We define working capital as total current assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments) less total current liabilities (excluding current portion of long-term debt). We calculate the ratio of current assets to current liabilities based on this definition.

As of December 31, 2023, we had $151.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the 2021 Revolver and outstanding letters of credit and other commitments of $2.5 million, leaving $156.5 million available for further borrowings and letters of credit, subject to restrictions in our 2021 Credit Facilities.

We currently intend to pay quarterly dividends on our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, subject to approval from the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.12 per share on Class A common stock and Class B common stock, payable on March 27, 2024. Our future ability to pay dividends will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, our ability to obtain funds from our subsidiaries and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant. Additionally, the terms of our current and any future agreements governing our indebtedness could limit our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions. 31

Table of Contents As of December 31, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments included $89.6 million held by our international subsidiaries. There are no restrictions on cash distributions to PAHC from our international subsidiaries. Distributions may be subject to taxation by U.S. or non-U.S. taxing authorities.

Contractual obligations

As of December 31, 2023, there were no material changes in payments due under contractual obligations from those disclosed in the Annual Report.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We do not currently use off-balance sheet arrangements for the purpose of credit enhancement, hedging transactions, investment or other financial purposes.

In the ordinary course of business, we may indemnify our counterparties against certain liabilities that may arise. These indemnifications typically pertain to environmental matters. If the indemnified party were to make a successful claim pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, we would be required to reimburse the loss. These indemnifications generally are subject to certain restrictions and limitations.

General description of non-GAAP financial measures

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is an alternative view of performance used by management as our primary operating measure, and we believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this performance measure. We report Adjusted EBITDA to reflect the results of our operations prior to considering certain income statement elements. We calculate EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (i) interest expense, net, (ii) provision for income taxes or less benefit for income taxes, and (iii) depreciation and amortization. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (a) (income) loss from, and disposal of, discontinued operations, (b) other expense or less other income, as separately reported on our consolidated statements of operations, including foreign currency (gains) losses, net and (c) certain items that we consider to be unusual, non-operational or non-recurring. The Adjusted EBITDA measure is not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP reported net income.

The Adjusted EBITDA measure is an important internal measurement for us. We measure our overall performance on this basis in conjunction with other performance metrics. The following are examples of how our Adjusted EBITDA measure is utilized:

senior management receives a monthly analysis of our operating results that is prepared on an Adjusted EBITDA basis;
our annual budgets are prepared on an Adjusted EBITDA basis; and
--- ---
other goal setting and performance measurements are prepared on an Adjusted EBITDA basis.
--- ---

Despite the importance of this measure to management in goal setting and performance measurement, Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that has no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, has limits in its usefulness to investors. Because of its non-standardized definition, Adjusted EBITDA, unlike GAAP net income (loss), may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is presented to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

We also recognize that, as an internal measure of performance, the Adjusted EBITDA measure has limitations, and we do not restrict our performance management process solely to this metric. A limitation of the Adjusted EBITDA measure is that it provides a view of our operations without including all events during a period, such as the depreciation of property, plant and equipment or amortization of acquired intangibles, and does not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies. 32

Table of Contents

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share represent alternative views of performance and we believe investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these performance measures. We report adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings per share to portray the results of our operations prior to considering certain income statement elements. We calculate adjusted net income as net income (loss) plus (i) other expense or less other income, as separately reported on our consolidated statements of operations, including foreign currency gains and losses and loss on extinguishment of debt, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles and other acquisition-related costs, such as accrued compensation and accrued interest, (iii) stock-based compensation, (iv) certain items that we consider to be unusual or non-recurring and (v) the income tax effect of pre-tax income (loss) adjustments and certain income tax items. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated using the adjusted net income divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares. The adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share measures are not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP reported net income (loss).

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measure that have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. Because of its non-standardized definition, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, unlike GAAP net income (loss), may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures of other companies. Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings per share are presented to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance.

Certain significant items

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are calculated prior to considering certain items. We evaluate such items on an individual basis. Such evaluation considers both the quantitative and the qualitative aspect of their unusual or non-operational nature. Unusual, in this context, may represent items that are not part of our ongoing business; items that, either as a result of their nature or size, we would not expect to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis.

We consider acquisition-related activities and business restructuring costs related to productivity and cost saving initiatives, including employee separation costs, to be unusual items that we do not expect to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis. We consider foreign currency gains and losses to be non-operational because they arise principally from intercompany transactions and are largely non-cash in nature.

New accounting standards

For discussion of new accounting standards, see “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards.”

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies, which include management’s best estimates and judgments, are included in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2023, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on August 30, 2023. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates since June 30, 2023.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements discuss our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, are disclosed under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this report in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not contain all of the factors that are important to you. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences we anticipate or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

Table of Contents Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

In the normal course of operations, we are exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. As a result, future earnings, cash flows and fair values of assets and liabilities are subject to uncertainty. We use, from time to time, foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps as a means of hedging exposure to foreign currency risks and fluctuating interest rates, respectively. We do not utilize derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We do not hedge our exposure to market risks in a manner that eliminates the effects of changing market conditions on earnings, cash flows and fair values. We monitor the financial stability and credit standing of our major counterparties.

For financial market risks related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, reference is made to the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk” section in the Annual Report and to the notes to the consolidated financial statements included therein. As of the date of this report, there were no material changes in the Company’s financial market risks from the risks disclosed in the Annual Report.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
