ARABIAN AMERICAN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, these unaudited financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012.  That Annual Report on Form 10-K/A includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, which have been restated to adjust the amount recorded by the Company for its share of the losses of Al Masane Al Kobra Mining Company (“AMAK”) for the year ended December 31, 2012.  That restatement was required as the result of corrections to the December 31, 2012, financial statements of AMAK made during the preparation of AMAK’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP and their audit by a firm of independent registered public accountants registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.  The December 31, 2012, amounts set forth in these unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the effects of that restatement.

The unaudited condensed financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual condensed financial statements and in management’s opinion reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.  In the opinion of management, the disclosures included in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” are intended to mean consolidated Arabian American Development Company and its subsidiaries.

Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2013.

We operate in one segment and all revenue originates from United States’ sources and all long-lived assets owned are located in the United States.

The Company owns a 35% interest in AMAK, a Saudi Arabian closed joint stock company which owns and operates mining assets in Saudi Arabia.  We account for our investment under the equity method of accounting.   See Notes 2 and 14.

2. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE FOR INVESTMENT IN AMAK

In 2012 the Company determined that changes in the level of its participation in the management of AMAK indicated that the Company had significant influence over the financial and operating policies of AMAK.  Accordingly, the Company changed from the cost method of accounting for its investment in AMAK to the equity method of accounting for the investment.  In accordance with FASB ASC 323-10-35-33 Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures, the consolidated financial statements for the prior periods have been retrospectively restated to account for the investment in AMAK for all periods.

The effects of the retrospective application of the equity method of accounting to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, are as follows:

In July 2012 the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.  This is amended guidance that simplifies how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill for impairment.  After an assessment of certain qualitative factors, if it is determined to be more likely than not that an indefinite-lived asset is impaired; entities must perform the quantitative impairment test.  Otherwise, the quantitative test is optional.  The amended guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted.  The update had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013 the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.  Under ASU 2013-02, an entity is required to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional details about those amounts. ASU 2013-02 does not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in the financial statements. ASU 2013-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The update had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The earnings per share calculations for the periods ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, include 300,000 shares of the Company that are held in the treasury of TOCCO.

8. LIABILITIES AND LONG-TERM DEBT

In September 2007 we entered into a $10.0 million term loan agreement with a domestic bank to finance the expansion of the petrochemical facility.  An amendment was entered into in November 2008 which increased the term loan to $14.0 million due to the increased cost of the expansion.  This note is collateralized by plant, pipeline and equipment. The agreement expires October 31, 2018.  At September 30, 2013, there was a short-term amount of $1.4 million and a long-term amount of $5.7 million outstanding. At December 31, 2012, there was a short-term amount of $1.4 million and a long-term amount of $6.8 million outstanding.   The interest rate on the loan varies according to several options.  At September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, the rate was 3.25% and 2.25%, respectively.  However, as discussed in Note 10, effective August 2008, the Company entered into a pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap with the lending bank which has the effect of converting the interest rate on $10.0 million of the loan to a fixed rate.  Principal payments of $350,000 are paid quarterly with interest paid monthly.

In May 2006 we entered into a $12.0 million revolving loan agreement with a domestic bank secured by accounts receivable and inventory.    The loan was originally due to expire on October 31, 2008, but was amended to extend the termination date to June 30, 2015, and ultimately increase the availability of the line to $18.0 million based upon the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory.  At September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, there was a long-term amount outstanding of $9.5 million and $7.5 million, respectively. The credit agreement contains a sub-limit of $3.0 million available to be used in support of the hedging program.  The interest rate on the loan varies according to several options.  At September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, the rate was 3.25% and 2.25%, respectively.  The borrowing base is determined by a formula in the loan agreement. If the amount outstanding exceeds the borrowing base, a principal payment is due to reduce the amount outstanding to the calculated borrowing base.  Interest is paid monthly.  Loan covenants that must be maintained quarterly include EBITDA, capital expenditures, dividends payable to parent, and leverage ratio. Interest on the loan is paid monthly and a commitment fee of 0.25% is due quarterly on the unused portion of the loan. At September 30, 2013, approximately $8.5 million was available to be drawn, and the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

On November 30, 2010, as part of the consideration paid for the acquisition of Silsbee Trading and Transportation Company (“STTC”), a note payable was issued to Nicholas Carter, previous owner of STTC, for $300,000.  Principal of $100,000 plus accrued interest at 4.0% per annum is payable annually on November 30th of each year.  At September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, there was a short-term amount of $100,000 outstanding.

We currently have a supplier who is the sole provider of South Hampton’s feedstock, although other sources are available.  The account is on open status.  In 2007 South Hampton and the supplier entered into an agreement, which expires 7 years from the date of initial operation, for construction of a tank and pipeline connection for the handling of feedstock.  In the event of default, South Hampton is obligated to reimburse the supplier for the unamortized portion of the cost of the tank. The tank was placed in service in July 2007.  Therefore, at September 30, 2013, 6 1/4 years of the 7 year agreement have elapsed.

9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following items are measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 820 at September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012:

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, advance to AMAK, accounts payable, accrued interest, accrued liabilities, accrued liabilities in Saudi Arabia and other liabilities approximate the fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of variable rate long term debt and notes payable reflect recent market transactions and approximate carrying value.  The Company used observable inputs that would qualify as Level 1 inputs to make its assessment of the approximate fair value of its cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, taxes receivable, advance to AMAK, accounts payable, accrued interest, accrued liabilities, accrued liabilities in Saudi Arabia, other liabilities and variable rate long term debt and notes payable.  The fair value of the derivative instruments are described below.
 
  Commodity Financial Instruments

We periodically enter into financial instruments to hedge the cost of natural gasoline (the primary feedstock), natural gas (used as fuel to operate the plant), and certain customer contract pricing.  

We assess the fair value of the financial swaps using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 of fair value hierarchy).  At September 30, 2013, we had derivative contracts with settlement dates through February 2014.  At December 31, 2012, no commodity financial instruments were outstanding.  For additional information see Note 10 below.

Interest Rate Swap

In March 2008 we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America related to the $10.0 million term loan secured by plant, pipeline and equipment.  The interest rate swap was designed to minimize the effect of changes in the LIBOR rate.  We have designated the interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.

South Hampton assesses the fair value of the interest rate swap using a present value model that includes quoted LIBOR rates and the nonperformance risk of the Company and Bank of America based on the Credit Default Swap Market (Level 2 of fair value hierarchy).

The Company has consistently applied valuation techniques in all periods presented and believes it has obtained the most accurate information available for the types of derivative contracts it holds. See discussion of our derivative instruments in Note 10.

10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Commodity Financial Contracts

Hydrocarbon based manufacturers, such as the Company, are significantly impacted by changes in feedstock and natural gas prices. Not considering derivative transactions, feedstock and natural gas used for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, represented approximately 79.9% and 82.1% of our operating expenses, respectively.

The Company endeavors to acquire feedstock and natural gas at the lowest possible cost.  The primary feedstock (natural gasoline) is traded over the counter and not on organized futures exchanges.  Financially settled instruments (fixed price swaps) are the principal vehicle used to give some predictability to feed prices. The Company does not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes and is limited by its risk management policy to hedging a maximum of 40% of monthly feedstock requirements.

The financial contracts currently in place are not designated as hedges.  As of September 30, 2013, South Hampton had outstanding committed financial contracts with settlement dates through February 2014.

The following tables detail (in thousands) the impact the agreements had on the financial statements:

The realized and unrealized gains/(losses) are recorded in Cost of Sales and Processing for the periods ended September 30, 2013, and 2012.  As a percentage of Cost of Sales and Processing, realized and unrealized gains/(losses) accounted for 0% and 0% for the three months and 0% and 1.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

Interest Rate Swap

On March 21, 2008, we entered into a pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America related to $10.0 million of our $14 million term loan secured by plant, pipeline and equipment. The effective date of the interest rate swap agreement is August 15, 2008, and terminates on December 15, 2017.  The notional amount of the interest rate swap was $4.5 million at September 30, 2013.  South Hampton receives credit for payments of variable interest made on the term loan’s variable rates, which are based upon the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR), and pays Bank of America an interest rate of 5.83% less the credit on the interest rate swap.  We have designated the transaction as a cash flow hedge.  Beginning on August 15, 2008, the derivative instrument was reported at fair value with any changes in fair value reported within other comprehensive income (loss) in the Company’s Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.  The Company entered into the interest rate swap to minimize the effect of changes in the LIBOR rate.  The following tables detail (in thousands) the impact the agreement had on the financial statements:

The cumulative loss from the changes in the swap contract’s fair value that is included in other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into income when interest is paid. The net amount of pre-tax loss in other comprehensive income (loss) as of September 30, 2013, predicted to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months is approximately $257,000. See further discussion of the fair value of the derivative instruments in Note 9.

11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Options – On May 29, 2013, the Company awarded 10 year options to Executive Vice President, Simon Upfill-Brown for 90,000 shares.  These options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the stock on May 29, 2013, which was $7.71 and vest in 25% increments over a 4 year period.  Compensation expense recognized during the three and nine months ending September 30, 2013, in connection with this award was approximately $50,000 and $52,000. The fair value of the options granted was calculated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following assumptions:

Expected volatility
85%
Expected dividends
None
Expected term (in years)
6.25
Risk free interest rate
1.326%

The fair value of the options granted below was calculated using the Black Scholes option valuation model with the assumptions as disclosed in prior quarterly and annual filings.

Directors’ compensation of approximately $94,000 and $68,000 during the three months and $283,000 and $194,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, respectively, were recognized related to options to purchase shares vesting through 2017.

Employee compensation, excluding the May issuance described above, of approximately $119,000 and $119,000 during the three months and $356,000 and $371,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, respectively, was recognized related to options with a 4 year vesting period which were awarded to officers and key employees.  These options vest through 2017.

Post-retirement compensation of approximately $24,000 was recognized during the three months and $73,000 was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, related to options awarded to Mr. Hatem El Khalidi in July 2009.  On May 9, 2010, the Board of Directors determined that Mr. El Khalidi forfeited these options and other retirement benefits when he made various demands against the Company and other AMAK Saudi shareholders which would benefit him personally and were not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.  The Company is litigating its right to withdraw the options and benefits and as such, these options and benefits continue to be shown as outstanding.  See further discussion in Note 16.

On February 1, 2013, the Company issued a warrant for the purchase of 100,000 shares of common stock to Genesis Select Corporation (“Genesis”) at a strike price of $10.00 per share.  The term of the warrant is 5 years with 50% vesting in equal increments of 1/12th each calendar month throughout the first year.  The remaining 50% will vest in equal increments of

 
12


1/36th each calendar month over years 2 through 4 contingent upon continuous investor relations service under the consulting agreement with Genesis.  Investor relations expense recognized in connection with this warrant was approximately $47,000 and $118,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

12. INCOME TAXES

The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and Texas. Tax returns for the years 2009 through 2011 remain open for examination in various tax jurisdictions in which we operate.  As of September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, we recognized no material adjustments in connection with uncertain tax positions.  The income tax rate differs from the statutory rates primarily due to Texas revised franchise tax, reversal of a valuation allowance, the domestic manufacturers’ deduction, and various permanent items.

13. POST-RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

In January 2008 an amended retirement agreement, replacing the February 2007 agreement, was entered into with Mr. El Khalidi. The amended agreement provides $6,000 per month in benefits to Mr. El Khalidi upon his retirement for the remainder of his life. Additionally, upon his death $4,000 per month will be paid to his surviving spouse for the remainder of her life. A health insurance benefit will also be provided.  An additional $382,000 was accrued in January 2008 for the increase in benefits. A liability of approximately $925,000 based upon an annuity single premium value contract plus accrued interest was outstanding at September 30, 2013, and was included in post-retirement benefits.  As of September 30, 2013, no payments have been made pursuant to this agreement.

In June 2009 the Company’s Board of Directors awarded Mr. El Khalidi a retirement bonus in the amount of $31,500 for 42 years of service. While there is no written policy regarding retirement bonus compensation, the Company has historically awarded all employees (regardless of job position) a retirement bonus equal to $750 for each year of service.  Since Mr. El Khalidi was employed by the Company for 42 years, the Board of Directors voted to award him a $31,500 retirement bonus, consistent with that provided to all other retired employees. This amount remained outstanding at September 30, 2013, and was included in post-retirement benefits.

On May 9, 2010, the Board of Directors terminated the retirement agreement, options, retirement bonus, and any outstanding directors’ fees due Mr. El Khalidi; however, due to the outstanding litigation discussed in Note 16, all amounts which have not met termination dates remain recorded until a resolution is achieved.

14. INVESTMENT IN AL MASANE AL KOBRA MINING COMPANY (“AMAK”)

In December 2012 the Board of Directors of AMAK authorized the issuance of additional shares of AMAK in an amount equal to ten percent of the then outstanding shares to raise funds for working capital requirements and retirement of construction debt.  In January 2013 we entered into an agreement with AMAK to purchase an additional 937,500 shares of AMAK at 30 Saudi Riyals (USD $8.00) per share, for a total of USD $7.5 million.  Due to the continued improvement in the operations of AMAK and a desire to prevent a substantial dilution of its investment, we elected to purchase these additional shares.  As a result of this purchase and upon completion of the raise on May 27, 2013, our ownership percentage in AMAK became approximately 35%.  All existing AMAK shareholders had the opportunity to buy into the issue and all shares were placed within that group.  As a result of the equity raise in 2013, the Company’s share of the net assets of AMAK increased approximately $4.0 million which the Company recognized as a gain (with a corresponding increase in its investment) in accordance with ASC 323-10-40-1.

As of September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, the Company had a non-controlling equity interest of approximately $54.4 million and $37.9 million, respectively. This investment is accounted for under the equity method. There were no events or changes in circumstances that may have an adverse effect on the fair value of our investment in AMAK at September 30, 2013.

AMAK’s financial statements were prepared in the functional currency of AMAK which is the Saudi Riyal (SR).  In June 1986 the SR was officially pegged to the U. S. Dollar (USD) at a fixed exchange rate of 1 USD to 3.75 SR.

AMAK was not in technical compliance with the current ratio covenant calculation on its loan from the Saudi Industrial Development Fund (“SIDF”) at September 30, 2013.  While AMAK received a waiver for the year ended December 31, 2012, no additional waivers have been requested or received for any subsequent events of non-compliance.  Therefore, the outstanding balance owed to SIDF is shown as a current liability as of September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012.  During the second quarter of 2013AMAK used a portion of their capital raise to repay a portion of their outstanding debt obligations.  We anticipate that AMAK will satisfy their ongoing operating needs through profitable operations, renegotiation of payment terms, and additional financing from SIDF.

The equity in the income or loss of AMAK reflected on the consolidated statement of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, is comprised of the following:

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we advanced approximately $2.0 million to AMAK for interim funding on a short term basis. The amount was repaid in May 2013.  A balance of approximately $500,000 remained outstanding at September 30, 2013, due to AMAK expenses being paid by the Company with reimbursement to follow.

See the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012, for additional information.

15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Legal fees of approximately $37,000 and $65,000 were incurred during the three months and $130,000 and $173,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, respectively, from the law firm of Germer PLLC of which Charles W. Goehringer, Jr. is a minority partner.  Mr. Goehringer acts as corporate counsel for the Company.

Ghazi Sultan, a Company director, was paid $35,000 during both three month periods and $104,000 during both nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, respectively for serving as the Company’s Saudi branch representative.

Consulting fees of approximately $43,000 were incurred during the three and $98,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, from IHS Global FZ LLC of which Company Director Gary K Adams holds the position of Chief Advisor – Chemicals.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Guarantees

South Hampton, in 1977, guaranteed a $160,000 note payable of a limited partnership in which it has a 19% interest. Included in Accrued Liabilities at September 30, 2013, and 2012, is $66,570 related to this guaranty.

On October 24, 2010, the Company executed a limited Guarantee in favor of the Saudi Industrial Development Fund (“SIDF”) whereby the Company agreed to guaranty up to 41% of the SIDF loan to AMAK in the principal amount of 330,000,000 Saudi Riyals (US$88,000,000) (the “Loan”). The term of the loan is through June 2019.  As a condition of the Loan, SIDF required all shareholders of AMAK to execute personal or corporate Guarantees; as a result, the Company’s guarantee is for approximately 135,300,000 Saudi Riyals (US$36,080,000). The loan was necessary to continue construction of the AMAK facilities and provide working capital needs.  The Company received no consideration in connection with extending the guarantee and did so to maintain and enhance the value of its investment.

Litigation -

On May 9, 2010, after numerous attempts to resolve certain issues with Mr. Hatem El Khalidi, the Board of Directors terminated the retirement agreement, options, retirement bonuses, and all outstanding directors’ fees due to Mr. El Khalidi, former CEO, President and Director of the Company. In June 2010 Mr. El Khalidi filed suit against the Company in the labor courts of Saudi Arabia alleging additional compensation owed to him for holidays and overtime.  The Company believes that the claims are unsubstantiated and continues to vigorously defend the case. 

In September 2010 Mr. El Khalidi threatened suit against the Company in the U.S. alleging breach of contract under the above agreements and other claims.  In late 2010 the Company filed suit against Mr. El Khalidi in the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Texas, Beaumont Division, seeking a declaratory judgment that all monies allegedly owed to Mr. El Khalidi are terminated (the “Federal Court Case”).  On March 21, 2011, Mr. El Khalidi filed suit against the Company in the 14th Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas for breach of contract and defamation (the “State Court Case”).  On July 1, 2011, the Company and Mr. El Khalidi entered into an agreement to dismiss the Federal Court Case and transfer venue for the State Court Case from Dallas County, Texas to Hardin County, Texas.  Pursuant to this agreement, the Federal Court Case was dismissed on July 13, 2011, and the State Court Case was transferred to the 88th Judicial Court of Hardin County, Texas on July 15, 2011. On July 24, 2013, the 88th Judicial District Court of Hardin County, Texas dismissed all claims and counterclaims for want of prosecution.  Mr. El Khalidi subsequently filed a notice of intent to appeal the dismissal with the Ninth Court of Appeals of Texas.

Liabilities of approximately $1.3 million remain recorded, and the options will continue to accrue in accordance with their own terms until all matters are resolved.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to their business.
 
On September 14, 2010, South Hampton received notice of a lawsuit filed in the 58th Judicial District Court of Jefferson County, Texas which was subsequently transferred to the 11th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas.  The suit alleges that the plaintiff became ill from exposure to asbestos.  There are approximately 44 defendants named in the suit.  South Hampton has placed its insurers on notice of the claim and plans to vigorously defend the case. 
   
No accrual has been recorded for the last claim.

Environmental Remediation -

In 2008 the Company learned of a claim by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) against World Hydrocarbons, Inc. for contamination of real property owned by the BLM north of and immediately adjacent to the processing mill situated on property owned by Pioche Ely Valley Mines, Inc. (“PEVM”).  The BLM’s claim alleged that mine tailings from the processing mill containing lead and arsenic migrated onto BLM property during the first half of the twentieth century.  World Hydrocarbons, Inc. responded to the BLM by stating that it does not own the mill and that PEVM is the owner and responsible party.  PEVM subsequently retained an environmental consultant and a local contractor to assist with the cleanup.  In June and July 2013, the contractor excavated and transported tailings from BLM property and other surrounding properties to an impoundment area located on PEVM property.  The cleanup is complete except for some minor work involving haul ramps and brush piles on BLM property.  Once this is complete PEVM expects to receive a no-further-action letter (NFA), or equivalent, from BLM.  The environmental consultant submitted a report to the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection on the entire removal project including a neighbor’s adjoining property, and PEVM received an NFA on October 30, 2013.  Finally, PEVM will need to cover the tailings impoundment where all of the tailings were placed and improve the impoundment walls.  Once that work is complete and fencing is repaired, all of the remaining work will be complete.  The contractor is expected to start on the finish work in late October or early November 2013.  The Company agreed to advance approximately $250,000 to PEVM for payment of the contractor and in return, PEVM will transfer interest in selected patented mining claims of equivalent value to the Company.    An accrual for $350,000 was recorded by PEVM in 2010 and $288,000 remained outstanding at September 30, 2013.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

FORWARD LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

Except for the historical information and discussion contained herein, statements contained in this release may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, including the following: a downturn in the economic environment; the Company’s failure to meet growth and productivity objectives; fluctuations in revenues and purchases; impact of local legal, economic, political and health conditions; adverse effects from environmental matters, tax matters and the Company’s pension plans; ineffective internal controls; the Company’s use of accounting estimates; competitive conditions; the Company’s ability to attract and retain key personnel and its reliance on critical skills; impact of relationships with critical suppliers; currency fluctuations; impact of changes in market liquidity conditions and customer credit risk on receivables; the Company’s ability to successfully manage acquisitions and alliances; general economic conditions domestically and internationally; insufficient cash flows from operating activities; difficulties in obtaining financing; outstanding debt and other financial and legal obligations; industry cycles; specialty petrochemical product and mineral prices; feedstock availability; technological developments; regulatory changes; foreign government instability; foreign legal and political concepts; and foreign currency fluctuations, as well as other risks detailed in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including this release, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company's control.

Overview

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial results, as well as the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes to consolidated financial statements to which they refer, are the responsibility of the management of the Company.  The Company’s accounting and financial reporting fairly reflect its business model involving the manufacturing and marketing of petrochemical products.  The Company’s business model involves the manufacture and sale of tangible products.  Our consistent approach to providing high purity products and quality services to our customers has helped to sustain our current position as a preferred supplier of various petrochemical products.

The discussion and analysis of financial condition and the results of operations which appears below should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements which appear in the Company’s amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012. That Annual Report on Form 10-K/A includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, which have been restated to adjust the amount recorded by the Company for its share of the losses of AMAK for the year ended December 31, 2012. That restatement was required as the result of corrections to the December 31, 2012, financial statements of AMAK made during the preparation of AMAK’s financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and their audit by a firm of independent registered public accountants registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. The December 31, 2012, amounts set forth in these unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the effects of that restatement.

We believe we are well-positioned to participate in new investments to grow the Company.  While petrochemical prices are volatile on a short-term basis and depend on the demand of our customers’ products, our investment decisions are based on our long-term business outlook using a disciplined approach in selecting and pursuing the most attractive investment opportunities.

Review of Third Quarter and Year-to-Date 2013 Results

We reported third quarter 2013 earnings of $5.2 million up $2.2 million from the third quarter of 2012. Basic earnings per share of $0.22 were reported for 2013, up $0.09 from 2012.  Sales volume of our petrochemical products increased 5.4%, and sales revenue from our petrochemical products increased 11.6% as compared to the third quarter of 2012.  Our equity in earnings of AMAK also increased $1.8 million from 2012 to 2013.

We reported year-to-date 2013 earnings of approximately $16.3 million up $7.8 million from the first nine months of 2012.  Basic earnings per share of $0.68 were reported for 2013, up $0.33 from 2012.  There was a gain from an additional equity issuance by AMAK of approximately $4.0 million and equity in earnings of AMAK of approximately $5.0 million in 2013, an increase of $10.0 million from 2012.  Sales volume of our petrochemical products decreased slightly by 4.3% from the first nine months of 2012 while sales revenue from petrochemical products decreased 2.3%.  Cost of sales decreased by 3.2% which allowed us to generate acceptable margins.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital

Our approximate working capital days are summarized as follows:

   
September 30, 2013
   
December 31, 2012
   
September 30, 2012
 
Days sales outstanding in accounts receivable
    32.7       25.9       34.5  
Days sales outstanding in inventory
    21.1       16.1       16.4  
Days sales outstanding in accounts payable
    9.2       10.3       9.9  
Days of working capital
    44.6       31.7       40.9  

Our days sales outstanding in inventory and our days sales outstanding in accounts receivable both increased as of the end of the third quarter of 2013 due to an increase in deferred sales.  Deferred sales increased by approximately $2.0 million over the third quarter of 2012.  Deferred sales are not recognized until the customer accepts delivery of the product and title has transferred.  The majority of these sales are to foreign customers with longer payment terms due to increased shipping times.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $2.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to a decrease of $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

The change in cash and cash equivalents is summarized as follows:

Operating Activities
 
Cash provided by operating activities totaled $7.6 million for the first nine months of 2013 which was $3.6 million lower than 2012.    For the first nine months of 2013 net income increased by approximately $7.8 million as compared to the corresponding period of 2012. Major non-cash items affecting income included an increase in the gain from additional equity issuance by AMAK of $4.0 million, an increase in the equity in earnings from AMAK of $6.0 million, a decrease in the unrealized loss on financial contracts of approximately $0.7 million, an increase in share based compensation of approximately $0.6 million, and an increase in deferred income taxes of approximately $1.6 million.

Significant factors leading to a decrease in cash provided by operating activities included:

·  
Trade receivables increased approximately $4.5 million (due to a 20.4% increase of volume sold compared to the fourth quarter of 2012 and an increase in foreign sales with longer payment terms) as compared to a decrease of approximately $1.4 million in 2012 (due to a 9.4% decreased in price per gallon and a 2.3% decrease in volume sold), and

·  
Inventory increased approximately $3.3 million (due to an increase in the amount of deferred sales at the end of the third quarter and an intentional build for hurricane season) as compared to an increase of approximately $0.9 million (due to a 10.2% increase in volume partially offset by a 6.0% decrease in cost per gallon) in 2012.

These uses of cash were partially offset by the following increases in cash provided by operations:

·  
Income tax receivable decreased approximately $1.2 million (due to the receivable being used for the 2013 estimated tax payment) as compared to no change in 2012,

·  
Other liabilities increased approximately $2.3 million (due to payments being received from tolling customers for modification or construction of tolling equipment) as compared to an increase of $0.4 million in 2012, and

 
18



·  
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased approximately $0.6 million (due to increases in accruals for income taxes, freight and fuel gas partially offset by a decrease in the accrual for raw material purchases) as compared to a decrease of approximately $1.0 million in 2012 (primarily due to decreases in accruals for income taxes, freight and fuel gas partially offset by an increase in the accrual for derivative settlements and raw material purchases).

Investing Activities

Cash used by investing activities during the first nine months of 2013 was approximately $11.0 million, representing an increase of approximately $4.1 million over the corresponding period of 2012. During the first nine months of 2013 we purchased an additional $7.5 million of stock in AMAK as discussed in Note 14, expended $3.1 million for equipment for debottlenecking South Hampton’s Penhex Unit, expansion of the sales loading rack facility, and various other improvements, began construction on a new control room, and built a new tolling unit for approximately $2.1 million.  These uses of cash were partially offset by the return of approximately $2.0 million from AMAK which was previously advanced.  During the first nine months of 2012 we purchased transport trucks and trailers for $0.8 million, land surrounding the facility for $0.2 million, made various facility improvements for $0.8 million, converted a processing tower for $0.4 million, made purchases for expansion of the pipeline of $2.0 million and purchased various other equipment.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities during the first nine months of 2013 was approximately $1.0 million versus cash used of $7.9 million during the corresponding period of 2012.  During 2013 the Company drew $6.0 million on its line of credit for working capital purposes and to fund the capital contribution to AMAK.  The Company also made principal payments of $1.1 million on its term debt and $4.0 million on its line of credit.  During the first nine months of 2012 the Company drew $2.0 million on its line of credit and made principal payments of $10.1 million on its line of credit and term debt.

Anticipated Cash Needs

We believe that the Company is capable of supporting its operating requirements and capital expenditures through internally generated funds supplemented with debt.

Gross Revenue

Gross Revenue increased during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 by approximately 12.1% due to an increase in volume of 5.4% and an increase in processing fees of 38.2%.

Petrochemical Product Sales

Petrochemical product sales increased by 11.6% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 due to an increase in volume of 5.4% as noted above and an increase in the average selling price of 5.9%. We set records in 2 months of the third quarter of 2013 for the number of isocontainers shipped during those months.  Isocontainers are the method most frequently used to ship product overseas.  Deferred sales volume increased 42.5% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 which delayed recognition until the subsequent quarter.

Processing

Processing revenues increased by 38.2% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 reflecting steady business from our processing services and the renegotiation of more reasonable fees for some of the contracts.

Cost of Sales

Cost of Sales increased 11.6% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 due to higher volumes processed and operating expenses as listed below.  Volume processed increased 5.8% due to increased demand.  In addition, average feedstock price per gallon increased 7.2% during 2013 from 2012.  We use natural gasoline as feedstock which is the heavier liquid remaining after butane and propane are removed from liquids produced by natural gas wells.  The material is a commodity product in the oil/petrochemical markets and generally is readily available.
 
 
Total Operating Expense

Total Operating Expense increased 11.5% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012.  Natural gas, labor and transportation are the largest individual expenses in this category.

The cost of natural gas purchased increased 20.4% during the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012 primarily due to an increase in the average per unit cost.  The average price per MMBTU for the third quarter of 2013 was $3.80 whereas, for the third quarter of 2012 the per-unit cost was $3.11.  The increase was offset slightly by a decrease in volume consumed from approximately 318,000 MMBTU to about 300,000 MMBTU during the same period.

Labor costs were slightly lower by 2.4% during the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012 because some of the maintenance labor was capitalized as part of ongoing construction projects.

Transportation costs were higher by 25.0% during the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012 due to the increase in the number of foreign shipments.  We experienced a 41.9% increase in the number of isocontainer shipments in the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012.   These costs are recovered through South Hampton’s selling price.

General and Administrative Expense

General and Administrative costs for the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 increased by 9.3% due to increases in insurance premiums (health and property increased), consulting fees (due to use of additional contractors), and an increase in officer and director compensation (due to the addition of a director and officer).

Depreciation

Depreciation increased 8.4% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 due to an increase in the amount of depreciable assets year over year.
 
 
Equity in Earnings (Losses) of AMAK

As discussed in Note 1 of the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company accounts for its investment in AMAK using the equity method of accounting. AMAK’s mining operations became fully operational during the second half of 2012. AMAK’s results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and the Company’s

 
20


share of those earnings recorded under the equity method of accounting includes equity in earnings of AMAK of $1.3 million.  For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company’s share of AMAK’s losses was $0.5 million.

Capital Expenditures

Capital Expenditures decreased by 5.0% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012.  See the capital expenditures discussion below for more detail.

Gross Revenue

Gross Revenue decreased slightly by 1.9% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 primarily due to a decrease in total sales volume of 4.3% offset by an increase in processing of 18.9%.

Petrochemical Product Sales

Petrochemical product sales decreased 2.3% during the first nine months of 2013 from the first nine months of 2012 due to a decrease in total sales volume of 4.3% as noted above.  The composition of our feedstock has changed allowing us to produce additional prime products without producing as much lower margin byproduct.  In addition, we realized a significant decrease in volume sold to one of our customers because a small, regional supplier returned to the market and another customer due to a change in their product mix.  Deferred sales volume increased 42.5% during the third quarter of 2013 from 2012 which delayed recognition until the subsequent quarter.

Processing

Processing revenues increased during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 by 18.9% due to an increase in processing fees charged under new contracts.

Cost of Sales

Cost of Sales decreased 3.2% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 due to a decrease in volume processed of 1.8%, a decrease of 1.9% in the average cost per gallon, and operating expenses as detailed below.  Also, during 2012 realized/unrealized hedging losses of $1.8 million were partially offset by a reduction in the LIFO allowance of $0.4 million for a net increase in Cost of Sales of $1.4 million.

Total Operating Expense

Total Operating Expense increased 12.7% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012.  Natural gas, labor and transportation are the largest individual expenses in this category. The cost of natural gas purchased increased 42.7% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 due to higher per-unit costs and 2.4 % higher volumes.  The average price per MMBTU for the first nine months of 2013 was $3.90; whereas, for the first nine months of 2012 the per-unit cost was $2.83.  Volume purchased increased to approximately 998,000 MMBTU during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, from about 974,000 MMBTU during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Labor costs were slightly higher by approximately 0.2% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 due to wage increases given based upon industry averages offset by capitalization of maintenance labor on construction projects.

Transportation costs were higher by 19.7% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 due to the increase in foreign shipments.  We experienced an 87.1% increase in the number of isocontainer shipments in the first nine months of 2013 as compared to the first nine months of 2012.   These costs are recovered through South Hampton’s selling price.  Higher transportation costs accounted for 61.9% of the increase in operating expense during the first nine months of 2013.

General and Administrative Expense

General and Administrative costs increased 18.4% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 due to increases in directors fees (due to appointment of an additional director), insurance premiums (health and property increased), property taxes (due to an increased basis), consulting fees (due to additional contractors being used), accounting and auditing fees (additional work due to the change to the equity method of accounting for AMAK, additional costs for the AMAK audit,  and amendments to periodic filings with the SEC), investor relations expense (due to employ of new firm and granting of warrants), bad debt expense (due to payments made for environmental cleanup at Pioche) and an increase in post-retirement benefits (reversal of expired options in 2012) partially offset by decreases in travel and administrative expenses in Saudi Arabia.

Depreciation

Depreciation increased 10.5% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012 due to an increase in the amount of depreciable assets.

Equity in Earnings (Losses) of AMAK

As discussed in Note 1, the Company accounts for its investment in AMAK using the equity method of accounting.  AMAK’s results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and the Company’s share of those earnings recorded under the equity method of accounting includes revenues from the shipment of ore which AMAK initially prematurely recognized in revenue in 2012 and subsequently restated its 2012 financial statements to recognize those revenues in the first quarter of 2013 when the risk of loss of the shipment passed to the buyer.  The Company’s share of earnings recorded under the equity method of accounting for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, includes a gain from the additional equity issuance by AMAK of $4.0 million and equity in earnings of AMAK of $5.0 million.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company’s share of AMAK’s losses was $1.0 million.
 
Capital Expenditures

Capital Expenditures decreased slightly by 4.3% during the first nine months of 2013 from 2012.  During the first nine months of 2013 purchases were made for debottlenecking the Penhex Unit, expanding the sales loading rack, building an additional processing unit for a customer, beginning construction of a new control room, and various other facility improvements.  During the first nine months of 2012 purchases were made for transport trucks and trailers, land surrounding the facility, various facility improvements, a processing tower conversion, and for pipeline expansion.

Guarantee of Saudi Industrial Development Fund (“SIDF”) Loan to AMAK

As discussed in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements, as a condition of the Loan from the SIDF in the principal amount of 330,000,000 SR (US$88,000,000) to AMAK, we were required to execute a Guarantee of up to 41% of the Loan.  The decision to provide a limited corporate guarantee in favor of AMAK was difficult as we considered numerous facts and circumstances.  One of the factors considered was that without the US$88,000,000 from the SIDF, construction activity on the project would likely have ceased.  Another factor considered was that prior to making a firm commitment regarding funding, the SIDF performed its own exhaustive due diligence of the project and obviously reached the conclusion that the project is viable and capable of servicing the debt.  Yet another factor considered was our ability to reach agreement with various AMAK Saudi shareholders whereby they agreed to use best efforts to have their personal guarantees stand ahead of and pay required payments to SIDF before our corporate guarantee.  Finally, we researched numerous loans made by the SIDF to others and were unable to find a single instance where the SIDF actually called a guarantee or foreclosed on a project.  Based on the above, we determined that it was in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to provide the limited corporate guarantee to facilitate completion of the mining project in a timely manner.   We also determined that the stand-in-front agreement in conjunction with the actual value of plant and equipment on the ground should act in concert to minimize any exposure arising from the corporate guarantee.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies are more fully described in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period reported. By their nature, these estimates, assumptions and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We base our estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience, market trends and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates, assumptions and judgments are reviewed on an ongoing basis and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our critical accounting policies have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. We believe there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates compared to those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012.
