OLIN CORPORATION AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Tabular amounts in millions, except per share data)

(Unaudited)

 

1. We have prepared the condensed financial statements included herein, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In our opinion, these financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal accruals) which are necessary to present fairly the results for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, we believe that the disclosures are appropriate. Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform to the 2004 presentation. We recommend that you read these condensed financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and the notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

2. Inventory consists of the following:

 

    

June 30,

2004


   

December 31,

2003


 

Raw materials and supplies

   $ 131.1     $ 120.0  

Work in process

     150.6       124.3  

Finished goods

     81.5       75.4  
    


 


       363.2       319.7  

LIFO reserve

     (110.2 )     (77.3 )
    


 


Inventory, net

   $ 253.0     $ 242.4  
    


 


 

Inventories are valued principally by the dollar value last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of inventory accounting; such valuations are not in excess of market. Cost for other inventories has been determined principally by the average cost and first-in, first-out (FIFO) methods. Elements of costs in inventories include raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Inventories under the LIFO method are based on annual estimates of quantities and costs as of year-end; therefore, the condensed financial statements at June 30, 2004, reflect certain estimates relating to inventory quantities and costs at December 31, 2004.

 

3. Basic and diluted income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and for the six months ended June 30, 2004 reflect the dilutive effect of stock options. The effect of stock options of 0.2 million shares for the six months ended June 30, 2003 has not been included in the 2003 diluted loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Please refer to footnote 6.
