NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Financial Statement Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of NewMarket Corporation and its subsidiaries contain all necessary adjustments for the fair statement of, in all material respects, our consolidated financial position as of
June 30, 2013
and
December 31, 2012
, the change in our shareholders’ equity for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2013
and the year ended
December 31, 2012
, our consolidated results of operation and comprehensive income for the
second quarter and six
months ended
June 30, 2013
and
June 30, 2012
, and our cash flows for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2013
and
June 30, 2012
. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the NewMarket Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2012
(
2012
Annual Report), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The results of operation for the
six
month period ended
June 30, 2013
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending
December 31, 2013
. The
December 31, 2012
consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company,” and “NewMarket” are to NewMarket Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.
At both
June 30, 2013
and
December 31, 2012
, we had a book overdraft for some of our disbursement cash accounts. A book overdraft represents disbursements that have not cleared the bank accounts at the end of the reporting period. There are no agreements with the same banks to offset the presented balance. We transfer cash on an as-needed basis to fund these items as they clear the bank in subsequent periods.
Prior periods in the Consolidated Statements of Income have been reclassified to reflect the discontinued operations of the real estate development segment resulting from the July 2, 2013 sale of real property by Foundry Park I, LLC (Foundry Park I). Refer to Note 2 for further information. Certain other reclassifications have been made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to the current presentation.
Cash dividends for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2013
and
June 30, 2012
were declared and paid as shown in the table below.

(a)
The gain (loss) on interest rate swap agreement represents the change, since the beginning of the reporting period, in the fair value of an interest rate swap which we entered into on June 25, 2009. We are not using hedge accounting to record the interest rate swap, and accordingly, any change in the fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.
(b)
In March 2012, we entered into a
$650 million
five
-year unsecured revolving credit facility which replaced our previous
$300 million
unsecured revolving credit facility. During 2012, we used a portion of the $650 million revolving credit facility to fund the early redemption of all of our then outstanding
7.125%
senior notes (7.125% senior notes), as well as to repay the outstanding principal amount on the mortgage loan. As a result, we recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $
6.7 million
during the
second
quarter ended
June 30, 2012
and
$9.9 million
during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2012
. The loss represents accelerated amortization of financing fees associated with the prior revolving credit facility, the 7.125% senior notes, and the mortgage loan, as well as costs associated with redeeming the 7.125% senior notes prior to maturity. Of the loss on early extinguishment of debt,
$0.8 million
for the second quarter of 2012 and first six months of 2012 is included as a component of (loss) income from operations of discontinued business, net of tax.

6. Earnings Per Share
Options and stock-based compensation awards are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share if the impact on earnings per share would be anti-dilutive. We had
11,585
shares of nonvested restricted stock that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the
second quarter and six
months ended
June 30, 2013
as their effects were anti-dilutive. We had no anti-dilutive options or stock-based compensation awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the
second quarter and six
months ended
June 30, 2012
.
The nonvested restricted stock is considered a participating security since the stock contains nonforfeitable rights to dividends. As such, we use the two-class method to compute basic and diluted earnings per share. The following table illustrates the earnings allocation method utilized in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations.

9. Contractual Commitments and Contingencies
Information on certain contractual commitments and contingencies follows.
Litigation
We are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to our business and include administrative or judicial actions seeking remediation under environmental laws, such as Superfund. Some of these legal proceedings relate to environmental matters and involve governmental authorities. For further information, see “Environmental” below.
While it is not possible to predict or determine with certainty the outcome of any legal proceeding, we believe the outcome of any of these proceedings, or all of them combined, will not result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operation, financial condition, or cash flows.
As we previously disclosed, the United States Department of Justice has advised us that it is conducting a review of certain of our foreign business activities in relation to compliance with relevant U.S. economic sanctions programs and anti-corruption laws, as well as certain historical conduct in the domestic U.S. market, and has requested certain information in connection with such review. We are cooperating with the investigation. In connection with such cooperation, we have voluntarily agreed to provide certain information and are conducting an internal review for that purpose.
Environmental
In 2000, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) named us as a potentially responsible party (PRP) under Superfund law for the clean-up of soil and groundwater contamination at the five grouped disposal sites known as "Sauget Area 2 Sites" in Sauget, Illinois. Without admitting any fact, responsibility, fault, or liability in connection with this site, we are participating with other PRPs in site investigations and feasibility studies. The Sauget Area 2 Sites PRPs received notice of approval from the EPA of the Remedial Investigation report on February 27, 2009, notice of approval of the October 2009 Human Health Risk Assessment on December 17, 2009, and approval of the Feasibility Study (FS) report on April 3, 2013. We have accrued our estimated proportional share of the expenses for the FS, as well as our best estimate of our proportional share of the remediation liability proposed in our ongoing discussions and submissions with the agencies involved. We do not believe there is any additional information available as a basis for revision of the liability that we have established at
June 30, 2013
. The amount accrued for this site is not material.
The accruals for environmental remediation, dismantling, and decontamination at our most significant environmental remediation sites are shown below. At the former TEL plant site shown in the table below, we have completed significant environmental remediation, although we will be monitoring and treating the site for an extended period. The accruals below have been discounted to present value, and include an inflation factor in the estimate. The remaining environmental liabilities not shown separately below are not discounted.

Table of Contents
We accrue for environmental remediation and monitoring activities for which costs can be reasonably estimated and are probable. These estimates are based on an assessment of the site, available clean-up methods, and prior experience in handling remediation. While we believe we are currently adequately accrued for known environmental issues, it is possible that unexpected future costs could have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operation, and cash flows.
Our total accruals for environmental remediation were approximately
$19.4 million
at
June 30, 2013
and
$19.7 million
at
December 31, 2012
. In addition to the accruals for environmental remediation, we also have accruals for dismantling and decommissioning costs of
$400 thousand
at
June 30, 2013
and
$500 thousand
at
December 31, 2012
.
Letters of Credit and Guarantees
We have agreements with several financial institutions that provide guarantees for certain business activities of our subsidiaries, including performance, insurance, credit, lease, and customs and excise guarantees. The parent company provides guarantees of the subsidiaries' performance under these agreements and also provides a guarantee for repayment of lines of credit for subsidiaries in China and India. Guarantees outstanding under all of these agreements at
June 30, 2013
were
$17 million
. At
June 30, 2013
,
$3.1 million
of these guarantees were secured by letters of credit, all of which were issued under the
$100 million
letter of credit sub-facility of our revolving credit facility. See
Note 8
for further information. The letters of credit relate to insurance and performance guarantees. The maximum potential amount of future payments under all other guarantees not secured by letters of credit at
June 30, 2013
was
$21 million
. We have no liability accrued for these guarantees; however, there is
$7.8 million
drawn on lines of credit in China and India, which is recorded in Long-term debt, current portion on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See
Note 8
for further information. We accrue for potential liabilities when a future payment is probable and the range of loss can be reasonably estimated.
Expiration dates of the letters of credit and certain guarantees range from
2013
to
2021
. Some of the guarantees have no expiration date. We renew letters of credit as necessary.
10. Derivatives and Hedging Activities
We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We primarily manage our exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities.
We manage certain economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risks, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding, as well as through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we have entered into interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.
Our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations of foreign exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of our cash receipts and payments as compared to our reporting currency, the U.S. Dollar. To manage this exposure, we sometimes enter into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize currency exposure due to cash flows from foreign operations. There were no such contracts outstanding at June 30, 2013.
Cash Flow Hedge of Interest Rate Risk
In January 2010, we entered into an interest rate swap to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on the mortgage loan and to reduce variability in interest expense. This mortgage loan interest rate swap terminated with the payoff of the mortgage loan on May 1, 2012. Further information on the mortgage loan is in
Note 12
of our
2012
Annual Report. We also had an interest rate swap to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on the Foundry Park I construction loan and to add stability to capitalized interest expense. The Foundry Park I construction loan interest rate swap matured on
January 1, 2010
. Both interest rate swaps were designated and qualified as cash flow hedges. As such, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the swaps was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is subsequently being reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the swap was recognized immediately in earnings.
The accumulated unrealized loss, net of tax, related to the fair value of the mortgage loan interest rate swap was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and amounted to
$0
at
June 30, 2013
and
$1.7 million
at
December 31, 2012
. Also recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets is the accumulated loss related to the construction loan interest rate swap of approximately
$2.5 million
, net of tax, at both
June 30, 2013
and
December 31, 2012
. Due to the sale of the real estate assets of Foundry Park I, the amount remaining in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the construction loan interest rate swap is expected to be recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income in July 2013. See Note 2 for further information on the sale by Foundry Park I.

Non-designated Hedges
On June 25, 2009, we entered into an interest rate swap with Goldman Sachs in the notional amount of
$97 million
and with a maturity date of
January 19, 2022
(Goldman Sachs interest rate swap). NewMarket entered into the Goldman Sachs interest rate swap in connection with the termination of a loan application and related rate lock agreement between Foundry Park I and Principal Commercial Funding II, LLC (Principal). When the rate lock agreement was originally executed in 2007, Principal simultaneously entered into an interest rate swap with a third party to hedge Principal’s exposure to fluctuation in the ten-year United States Treasury Bond rate. Upon the termination of the rate lock agreement on June 25, 2009, Goldman Sachs both assumed Principal’s position with the third party and entered into an offsetting interest rate swap with NewMarket. Under the terms of this interest rate swap, NewMarket is making fixed rate payments at
5.3075%
and Goldman Sachs makes variable rate payments based on three-month LIBOR. We have collateralized this exposure through cash deposits posted with Goldman Sachs amounting to
$28.3 million
at
June 30, 2013
and
$37.7 million
at
December 31, 2012
.
We have made an accounting policy election to not offset derivative fair value amounts with the fair value amounts for the right to reclaim cash collateral under our master netting arrangement. We do not use hedge accounting for the Goldman Sachs interest rate swap, and therefore, immediately recognize any change in the fair value of this derivative financial instrument directly in earnings.

We determine the fair value of the derivative instruments shown in the table above by using widely-accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each instrument. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs.
The fair value of the interest rate swap is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves. In determining the fair value measurements, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our nonperformance risk and the counterparties’ nonperformance risk.
Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustment associated with the derivatives utilizes Level 3 inputs. These Level 3 inputs include estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by both us and the counterparties to the derivatives. As of
June 30, 2013
and
December 31, 2012
, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustment on the overall valuation of our derivatives and have determined that the credit valuation adjustment is not significant to the overall valuation of the derivatives. Accordingly, we have determined that our derivative valuations should be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
We have made an accounting policy election to measure credit risk of any derivative financial instruments subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.
Long-term debt
– We record the value of our long-term debt at historical cost. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is shown in the table below and is based primarily on estimated current rates available to us for debt of the same remaining duration and adjusted for nonperformance risk and credit risk. The estimated fair value is determined by the market standard practice of modeling the contractual cash flows required under the debt instrument and discounting the cash flows back to present value at the appropriate credit-risk adjusted market interest rates. For floating rate debt obligations, we use forward rates, derived from observable market yield curves, to project the expected cash flows we will be required to make under the debt instrument. We then discount those cash flows back to present value at the appropriate credit-risk adjusted market interest rates. The fair value is categorized as Level 2.

13. Consolidating Financial Information
The
4.10%
senior notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by our existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under our revolving credit facility and any of our other indebtedness (Guarantor Subsidiaries). The subsidiary guarantees are joint and several obligations of the Guarantor Subsidiaries. The indenture governing the 4.10% senior notes includes a provision which allows for a Guarantor Subsidiary to be released of its obligations under the subsidiary guarantee under certain conditions. Those conditions include the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Guarantor Subsidiary's assets in compliance with the indenture and the release or discharge of a Guarantor Subsidiary from its obligations as a guarantor under our revolving credit facility and all of our other indebtedness. The Guarantor Subsidiaries and the subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 4.10% senior notes (the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries) are
100%
owned by NewMarket Corporation (the Parent Company). The Guarantor Subsidiaries consist of the following:
Ethyl Corporation
Afton Chemical Corporation
Ethyl Asia Pacific LLC
Afton Chemical Asia Pacific LLC
Ethyl Canada Holdings, Inc.
Afton Chemical Canada Holdings, Inc.
Ethyl Export Corporation
Afton Chemical Japan Holdings, Inc.
Ethyl Interamerica Corporation
Afton Chemical Additives Corporation
Ethyl Ventures, Inc.
NewMarket Services Corporation
Interamerica Terminals Corporation
The Edwin Cooper Corporation
Afton Chemical Intangibles LLC
Old Town LLC
NewMarket Investment Company
NewMarket Development Corporation
Foundry Park I, LLC
Foundry Park II, LLC
Gamble's Hill, LLC
Gamble's Hill Lab, LLC
Gamble's Hill Landing, LLC
Gamble's Hill Third Street, LLC
Gamble's Hill Tredegar, LLC
We conduct all of our business through and derive essentially all of our income from our subsidiaries. Therefore, our ability to make payments on the 4.10% senior notes or other obligations is dependent on the earnings and the distribution of funds from our subsidiaries.
The following sets forth the Consolidating Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the
second quarter and six
months ended
June 30, 2013
and
June 30, 2012
; Consolidating Balance Sheets as of
June 30, 2013
and
December 31, 2012
; and Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2013
and
June 30, 2012
for the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries, and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. The financial information is based on our understanding of the SEC's interpretation and application of Rule 3-10 of the SEC Regulation S-X.
The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of results of operation or financial position had the Guarantor Subsidiaries or Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries operated as independent entities. The Parent Company accounts for investments in these subsidiaries using the equity method.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
Forward-Looking Statements
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements about future events and expectations within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future results. When we use words in this document such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “expects,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “will,” and similar expressions, we do so to identify forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding future prospects of growth in the petroleum additives market, other trends in the petroleum additives market, our ability to maintain or increase our market share, and our future capital expenditure levels.
We believe our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable expectations and assumptions, within the bounds of what we know about our business and operations. However, we offer no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from our expectations due to uncertainties and factors that are difficult to predict and beyond our control.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, availability of raw materials and transportation systems; supply disruptions at single-sourced facilities; ability to respond effectively to technological changes in our industry; failure to protect our intellectual property rights; hazards common to chemical businesses; occurrence or threat of extraordinary events, including natural disasters and terrorist attacks; competition from other manufacturers; sudden or sharp raw materials price increases; gain or loss of significant customers; risks related to operating outside of the United States; the impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; political, economic, and regulatory factors concerning our products; future governmental regulation; resolution of environmental liabilities or legal proceedings; inability to complete future acquisitions or successfully integrate future acquisitions into our business; and other factors detailed from time to time in the reports that NewMarket files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the risk factors in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our
2012
Annual Report, which is available to shareholders upon request and in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of this Form 10-Q.
You should keep in mind that any forward-looking statement made by us in this discussion or elsewhere speaks only as of the date on which we make it. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. We have no duty to, and do not intend to, update or revise the forward-looking statements in this discussion after the date hereof, except as may be required by law. In light of these risks and uncertainties, any forward-looking statement made in this discussion or elsewhere might not occur.
Overview
Our business performed well during the first half of 2013, despite the slow pace of the worldwide economic recovery. In many respects, the first half of 2013 was very similar to the first half of 2012. Revenue and product shipments were substantially unchanged. During the first half of 2013, we had higher spending in research, development, and testing, as well as selling, general, and administrative expenses in support of our business. Our net income and income taxes benefited from the reinstatement of the research and development tax credit for 2012 and 2013 in January of this year. In addition, our cash flow generation was sufficient to fund operations, including increased working capital needs. We continue to run our business for the long-run with the goal of helping our customers succeed in their marketplaces.
On July 2, 2013, Foundry Park I completed the sale of its real estate assets for
$143.6 million
in cash, which comprised the entire real estate development segment. The operations of the real estate development segment are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Also of note during the first half of 2013 was our repurchase of $26.8 million of our common stock, as well as the reduction of outstanding debt by $56.6 million.
During March 2013, we registered, under the Securities Act of 1933, our previously unregistered 4.10% senior notes, which we issued in December 2012, and commenced an offer to exchange the outstanding unregistered notes for an equal aggregate principal amount of the registered 4.10% senior notes.
Results of Operation
Revenue
Our consolidated revenue for the
second quarter
2013
totaled
$583.8 million
, representing
a decrease
of approximately
0.6%
from the
second quarter
2012
level of $587.6 million. Six months 2013 consolidated revenue was
$1.1 billion
which was a decrease of 0.3% from the six months 2012 level. The following table shows revenue by segment and product line.

Petroleum Additives Segment
The primary regions in which we operate include North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, and the Europe/Middle East/Africa/India (EMEAI). The percentage of revenue generated in the regions remains fairly consistent when comparing the first six months 2013 with the first six months 2012, as well as with prior year periods. In addition, the percentage of lubricant additives sales and fuel additives sales is also substantially consistent between periods.
Petroleum additives net sales for the
second quarter
2013
of
$581.3 million
decreased
$2.9 million
, or approximately
0.5%
, from
$584.2 million
for the
second quarter
2012
. From a regional perspective, EMEAI reflected increased revenue when comparing the two second quarter periods, while the remaining regions were lower for second quarter 2013 as compared to second quarter 2012. Each of these changes within regions was relatively minor. The small decrease in revenue when comparing the two
second quarter
periods resulted primarily from a reduction in selling prices and an unfavorable foreign currency impact, as well as lower shipments of fuel additives. These factors were substantially offset by a favorable increase of shipments of lubricant additives. Overall, petroleum additives product shipments were substantially even between the two years, increasing 1% when comparing the two second quarter periods. Product shipments in all regions, except Latin America, were slightly higher. When comparing the two second quarter periods, the U.S. Dollar strengthened against the British Pound Sterling (Pound) and the Japanese Yen (Yen), resulting in an unfavorable foreign currency impact on revenue primarily from the impact of the Yen. The European Union Euro (Euro) was substantially unchanged between the two second quarter periods.
Petroleum additives net sales for
six months
2013
of
$1.1 billion
were approximately
0.2%
lower
than
six months
2012
. Regionally, EMEAI and Asia Pacific experienced increased revenue and shipments when comparing six months 2013 and six months 2012, while revenues and shipments in North America and Latin America were lower. Similar to the second quarter periods, the decrease between the two six months periods reflects lower shipments of fuel additives products, the impact from lower selling prices, and an unfavorable foreign currency impact. Substantially offsetting these unfavorable factors was an increase in shipments of lubricant additives. Overall, product shipments for six months 2013 increased 0.5% from six months 2012 levels. When comparing the two six months periods, the U.S. Dollar strengthened against the Pound and Yen, resulting in an unfavorable foreign currency impact on revenue, mostly from the Yen. Similar to the second quarter comparison, the Euro was substantially unchanged when comparing the two six months periods.

Petroleum Additives Segment
The petroleum additives operating profit
increased
$0.9 million
when comparing
second quarter
2013
to
second quarter
2012
and
decreased
$4.3 million
when comparing
six months
2013
to
six months
2012
. The small increase between second quarter 2013 and second quarter 2012 resulted from improved results in lubricant additives, which were substantially offset by unfavorable results in fuel additives. Lubricant additives were also higher for six months 2013 as compared to six months 2012, but were more than offset by lower results in the fuel additives product line. The operating profit margin was 16.8% for
second quarter
2013
, as compared to 16.6% for
second quarter
2012
and was 17.5% for
six months
2013
, as compared to 17.9% for
six months
2012
. For the rolling four quarters ended
June 30, 2013
, the operating profit margin was 16.7%, which is in line with our expectations of the performance of our business over the long-term. While operating profit margins will fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to multiple factors, we do not operate our business differently from quarter to quarter. We believe the fundamentals of our business and industry are unchanged. We continue to focus on developing and delivering innovative, technology-driven solutions to our customers.
Gross profit results were favorable by $8.6 million when comparing the second quarter periods of 2013 and 2012 and $9.7 million when comparing the six months periods. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue remained fairly consistent between the two second quarter and six months periods at 71.1% for second quarter 2013 compared to 72.7
% for second quarter 2012,
and 70.5% for six months 2013 compared to 71.4
% for six months 2012.
When comparing second quarter and six months 2013 with second quarter and six months 2012, total product shipments increased slightly, with higher shipments of lubricant additives products offset by lower shipments of fuel additives products. Nonetheless, increased volumes of higher-valued products for both second quarter and six months 2013 resulted in a favorable variance in our gross profit. In addition, raw material costs were favorable for both 2013 periods. These favorable components of gross profit were partially offset by unfavorable variances in selling prices, as discussed in the Revenue section above, as well as manufacturing conversion costs.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) for
second quarter
2013
was lower by $0.4 million, or 1.1%, as compared to
second quarter
2012
, and higher by $2.9
million, or 4.4%, for
six months
2013
as compared to
six months
2012
. SG&A as a percentage of revenue was 5.8% for
second quarter
2013
, as compared to 5.9%
for
second quarter
2012
and 6.0% for
six months
2013
as compared to 5.7% for
six months
2012
. Our SG&A costs are mainly personnel-related and include salaries, benefits, and other costs associated with our workforce. As our workforce has increased in number to support our growing worldwide operations, these costs have also risen, which occurred when comparing the two six months periods. In addition to increased personnel-related costs, professional fees, as well as health, safety, and environmental fees, have also increased during the six months 2013 over 2012 levels.
Research, development, and testing expenses (R&D) for
second quarter
2013
increased $8.1 million, or 28.3%, from
second quarter
2012
levels and for
six months
2013
increased
$11.1 million
, or
19.7%
, from
six months
2012
levels. As a percentage of revenue, R&D was 6.3% for
second quarter
2013
, compared to 4.9% for
second quarter
2012
, and 5.9% for
six months
2013
compared to 4.9% for
six months
2012
. Our approach to R&D spending, as it is with SG&A, is one of purposeful spending on programs to support our current product base and to ensure that we develop products to support our customers' programs in the future. R&D spending includes personnel-related costs, as well as internal and external testing of our products. The increase during both the second quarter 2013 and six months 2013 from the same 2012 periods was substantially in the lubricant additives product line and includes efforts to support the development of additives that meet our customers' needs, as well as new standards, and to expand into new solution areas. We expect R&D costs for the full year in 2013 will increase over the 2012 level.

The following discussion references the Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 3 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Interest and Financing Expenses
Interest and financing expenses were
$4.6 million
for
second quarter
2013
and
$1.8 million
for
second quarter
2012
.
Six months
2013
amounted to
$9.4 million
, while
six months
2012
amounted to
$5.1 million
. The increase in interest and financing expenses for the second quarter 2013 resulted from both higher outstanding average debt, as well as a higher average interest rate. The increase in interest and financing expenses for six months 2013 primarily resulted from higher outstanding average debt, which was partially offset by a favorable average interest rate. The higher outstanding debt for both 2013 periods, as well as the higher average interest rate for the second quarter 2013, was impacted by the issuance of the 4.10% senior notes in December 2012. The previously outstanding 7.125% senior notes were redeemed in April 2012.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt
In total, we recorded a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $6.7 million for second quarter 2012 and $9.9 million for six months 2012. The loss resulted from the recognition of $5.3 million from the early redemption premium on the 7.125% senior notes ($2.7 million recognized during second quarter 2012), $3.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs on the 7.125% senior notes (all recognized during the second quarter 2012), $0.8 million from unamortized deferred financing costs on the mortgage loan (all recognized during the second quarter 2012), and $0.6 million of unamortized deferred financing costs on our previous revolving credit facility. Of the total loss of $9.9 million on the early extinguishment of debt in six months 2012, approximately $5.3 million was a cash payment during the second quarter 2012. The remaining amounts were a noncash charge. Of the total loss on early extinguishment of debt, the $0.8 million from unamortized deferred financing costs on the mortgage loan for both the second quarter 2012 and six months 2012 was reclassified and included as a component of (loss) income from operations of discontinued business.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net for
second quarter
2013
was income of
$5.4 million
, while
second quarter
2012
was expense of
$5.6 million
. The amount for
six months
2013
was income of
$6.1 million
, and
six months
2012
was expense of
$3.8 million
. The amounts for both
2013
and
2012
primarily reflect the gain in 2013 and the loss in 2012 on a derivative instrument representing an interest rate swap recorded at fair value through earnings. See
Note 10
for additional information on the interest rate swap.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was
$29.5 million
for
second quarter
2013
and
$26.1 million
for
second quarter
2012
. The effective tax rate was
31.4%
for
second quarter
2013
, while
second quarter
2012
was
32.2%
. The
increase
in income from continuing operations before income tax expense resulted in an increase of
$4.1 million
in income taxes, while the lower effective tax rate in
2013
as compared to
2012
resulted in a decrease of
$0.7 million
in income tax expense when comparing the two
second quarter
periods.
Income tax expense was
$55.0 million
for
six months
2013
and
$58.1 million
for
six months
2012
. The effective tax rate was
29.5%
for
six months
2013
, while
six months
2012
was
32.4%
. The
increase
in income from continuing operations before income tax expense resulted in an increase of
$2.3 million
in income taxes, while the lower effective tax rate in
2013
as compared to
2012
resulted in a decrease of
$5.4 million
in income tax expense when comparing the two six months periods.
The effective tax rate for both 2013 periods includes the benefit of higher income in foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates. The
six months
2013 period reflects the effects of the research and development tax credit for all of 2012, as it was retroactively signed into law in January 2013, as well as the effects for
six months
2013, neither of which was included in the
six months
2012 period. The tax rate for the second quarter 2013 period also includes the effect of the research and development tax credit, which was not included in the second quarter 2012 period.
Loss (Income) From Operations of Discontinued Business
On July 2, 2013, Foundry Park I completed the sale of its real estate assets for
$143.6 million
in cash, which comprised the entire real estate development segment. The operations of the real estate development segment are now reported in Loss (income) from operations of discontinued business, net of tax, in the Consolidated Statements of Income. We expect to recognize a gain of approximately $35.8 million ($21.9 million after tax) in third quarter 2013 related to this transaction.

Table of Contents
Cash Flows, Financial Condition, and Liquidity
Cash and cash equivalents at
June 30, 2013
were
$73.5 million
, which was
a decrease
of
$15.6 million
since
December 31, 2012
. The decrease included a
$5.0 million
unfavorable
impact from foreign currency translation.
Our cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries amounted to approximately
$68.4 million
at
June 30, 2013
and
$80.0 million
at
December 31, 2012
. A significant amount, but not all, of these foreign cash balances are associated with earnings that we have asserted are indefinitely reinvested. We plan to use these indefinitely reinvested earnings to support growth outside of the United States through funding of operating expenses, research and development expenses, capital expenditures, and other cash needs of our foreign subsidiaries. Periodically, we repatriate cash from our foreign subsidiaries to the United States through intercompany dividends. These intercompany dividends are paid only by subsidiaries whose earnings we have not asserted are indefinitely reinvested or whose earnings qualify as previously taxed income, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. If circumstances were to change that would cause these indefinitely reinvested earnings to be repatriated, an incremental U.S. tax liability would be incurred. As part of our foreign subsidiary repatriation activities, we received cash dividends of
$9.7 million
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2013
and
$7.3 million
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2012
.
We expect that cash from operations, together with borrowing available under our revolving credit facility, will continue to be sufficient to cover our operating needs for the foreseeable future.
Cash Flows – Operating Activities
Cash flows
provided from
operating activities for the
six months
2013
were
$122.9 million
and included
a decrease
of
$35.5 million
due to higher working capital levels, including higher accounts receivable and prepaid expenses; lower accrued expenses, which were partially offset by lower inventories; and higher accounts payable and dividends payable. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to higher sales levels when comparing the second quarter 2013 with the fourth quarter 2012, while higher prepaid expenses included an increase in dividends payable that represent the funding of the dividends in June 2013 that were not paid by the transfer agent until July 2013. The decrease in accrued expenses primarily reflects payments related to customer rebates made during six months 2013. The increase in accounts payable, as well as the decrease in inventories, are normal fluctuations in timing at several of our subsidiaries.
We had working capital, including the assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation, of
$611.2 million
at
June 30, 2013
and
$518.8 million
at
December 31, 2012
. The current ratio was
3.49
to 1 at
June 30, 2013
and
3.39
to 1 at
December 31, 2012
.
Cash Flows – Investing Activities
Cash
used in
investing activities was
$25.0 million
during
six months
2013
and included
$31.8 million
for capital expenditures. Also included in investing activities was a net
return of deposit
of
$9.3 million
and a net settlement
payment
of
$2.5 million
related to the Goldman Sachs interest rate swap. Further information on the interest rate swap is discussed in
Note 10
. We estimate our total capital spending during
2013
will be approximately $70 million to $80 million. We expect to continue to finance capital spending through cash on hand and cash provided from operations, together with borrowing available under our
$650 million
revolving credit facility.
Cash Flows – Financing Activities
Cash
used in
financing activities during
six months
2013
amounted to
$108.5 million
. Borrowings under our revolving credit facility
decreased
by
$60.0 million
, while amounts outstanding under lines of credit increased $3.4 million. We incurred
$1.1 million
in debt issuance costs related to the 4.10% senior notes. We also paid
$24.0 million
to fund dividends and
$26.8 million
for the repurchase of common stock during
six months
2013
.
We had total long-term debt, including the current portion, of
$372.2 million
at
June 30, 2013
, representing
a decrease
of approximately
$56.6 million
in our total debt since
December 31, 2012
.
At
June 30, 2013
, in addition to the revolving credit facility, which is discussed below, we had outstanding senior notes in the aggregate principal amount of
$350 million
that bear interest at a fixed rate of
4.10%
and are due in
2022
. During March 2013, we registered these 4.10% senior notes under the Securities Act of 1933 and commenced an offer to exchange the previously unregistered 4.10% senior notes that were outstanding at December 31, 2012 for an equal aggregate principal amount.
Two of our subsidiaries also have short-term lines of credit for operating purposes. The line of credit for one of our subsidiaries in India is for
110 million
rupees and has an outstanding balance of
$0.8 million
(
50 million
rupees) at
June 30, 2013
. The line of credit for one of our subsidiaries in China is for
$10 million
with an outstanding balance of
$6.9 million
at
June 30, 2013
.

Revolving Credit Facility
– At
June 30, 2013
, we had a
$650 million
multicurrency revolving credit facility, with a
$100 million
sublimit for multicurrency borrowings, a
$100 million
sublimit for letters of credit, and a
$20 million
sublimit for swingline loans. The agreement includes an expansion feature, which allows us, subject to certain conditions, to request an increase to the aggregate amount of the revolving credit facility or obtain incremental term loans in an amount up to
$150 million
. Borrowings bear interest at variable rates. The revolving credit facility matures on
March 14, 2017
.
The following table provides information related to the unused portion of our revolving credit facility:

Both the 4.10% senior notes and the revolving credit facility contain covenants, representations, and events of default that management considers typical of credit agreements of this nature. The more restrictive and significant financial covenants under the revolving credit facility include:
•
A consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of no more than 3.00 to 1.00; and
•
A consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of no less than 3.00 to 1.00, calculated on a rolling four quarter basis.
At
June 30, 2013
, the Leverage Ratio was
0.97
and the Interest Coverage Ratio was
22.06
, while at
December 31, 2012
the Leverage Ratio was
1.11
and the Interest Coverage Ratio was
32.44
. We were in compliance with all covenants under both the revolving credit facility and the 4.10% senior notes at
June 30, 2013
and
December 31, 2012
.
As a percentage of total capitalization (total debt and shareholders’ equity), our total debt percentage
decreased
from
51.6%
at
December 31, 2012
to
44.4%
at
June 30, 2013
. The change in the percentage was primarily the result of a decrease in long-term debt and an increase in shareholders’ equity. The increase in shareholders’ equity reflects our earnings, partially offset by the impact of dividend payments and stock repurchases. Normally, we repay any outstanding long-term debt with cash from operations or refinancing activities.
Other Matters
During April 2013, we made the decision to discontinue the production of a fuel additive at our Ethyl Canada facility. While the facility will remain in operation, the workforce was reduced to support the remaining operations. As a result of this action, we recognized expense for severance charges and recorded the impairment of the affected property, plant, and equipment. The total charge to operations was not material to our financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
This report, as well as the
2012
Annual Report on Form 10-K, includes a discussion of our accounting principles, as well as methods and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. We believe these discussions and financial statements fairly represent the financial position and results of operation of our company in all material respects. The purpose of this portion of our discussion is to further emphasize some of the more critical areas where a significant change in facts and circumstances in our operating and financial environment might cause a change in reported financial results.
Intangibles (Net of Amortization) and Goodwill
We have certain identifiable intangibles, as well as goodwill, amounting to
$26.5 million
at
June 30, 2013
. These intangibles relate to our petroleum additives business and, except for the goodwill, are being amortized over periods with up to approximately seventeen years of remaining life. We continue to assess the market related to these intangibles, as well as their specific values, and have concluded the values and amortization periods are appropriate. We also evaluate these intangibles for any potential impairment when significant events or circumstances occur that might impair the value of these assets. These evaluations continue to support the values at which these identifiable intangibles are carried on our financial statements. In addition, our reporting unit with goodwill is not at risk of failing the goodwill impairment test. However, if conditions were to substantially deteriorate in the petroleum additives market, it could possibly cause a decrease in the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets or result in a noncash write-off of all or a portion of the
35
Table of Contents
intangibles’ carrying amount. A reduction in the amortization period would have no effect on cash flows. We do not anticipate such a change in the market conditions in the near term.
Environmental and Legal Proceedings
We believe our environmental accruals are appropriate for the exposures and regulatory guidelines under which we currently operate. While we currently do not anticipate significant changes to the many factors that could impact our environmental requirements, we continue to keep our accruals consistent with these requirements as they change.
While it is not possible to predict or determine with certainty the outcome of any legal proceeding, it is our opinion, based on our current knowledge, that we will not experience any material adverse effects on our results of operation, cash flows, or financial condition as a result of any pending or threatened proceeding.
Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits
We use assumptions to record the impact of the pension and postretirement benefit plans in the financial statements. These assumptions include the discount rate, expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, rate of compensation increase, and health-care cost trend rate. A change in any one of these assumptions could cause different results for the plans, and therefore impact our results of operation, cash flows, and financial condition. We develop these assumptions after considering available information that we deem relevant. Information is provided on the pension and postretirement plans in
Note 19
of the
2012
Annual Report. In addition, further disclosure on the effect of changes in these assumptions is provided in the “Financial Position and Liquidity” section of Part II, Item 7 of the
2012
Annual Report.
Income Taxes
We file United States, foreign, and local income tax returns, under which assumptions may be made to determine the deductibility of certain costs. We make estimates related to the impact of tax positions taken on our financial statements when we believe the tax position is more likely than not to be upheld on audit. We do not provide for income taxes on earnings considered to be indefinitely reinvested abroad. In addition, we make certain assumptions in the determination of the estimated future recovery of deferred tax assets.
Outlook
We are very pleased with our first half results. The results reinforce our confidence that our customer-focused approach to the market is the path on which to continue. We believe the fundamentals of how we run our business - a long-term view, safety-first culture, customer-focused solutions, technology-driven product offerings, world-class supply chain capability, and a regional organizational structure to better understand our customers' needs - will continue to pay dividends to all of our stakeholders.
We continue to have expectations that our petroleum additives segment will deliver improved results in 2013, after having posted record operating profit for each of the last several years. We expect that petroleum additives shipment demand will continue to grow at an average annual rate of 1% - 2% over the next five years, as there has been no significant change in the fundamentals of the business. Over the long-term, we plan to exceed the industry growth rate. Over the past several years, we have made significant investments to expand our capabilities around the world. These investments have been in people, technology and technical centers, and production capacity. We intend to use these new capabilities to improve our ability to deliver the goods and service that our customers value and to expand our business and improve profits. We will continue to expand our capabilities to provide even better service, technology, and customer solutions.
As a global company operating in many countries around the world, we are not immune to world economic conditions. Our expectations for 2013 include the assumption of modest economic recovery around the world. We did not see that recovery in any measurable fashion in the first half, but continue to plan our business around a modest growth assumption and will be prepared to meet the increased demand when it occurs.
Our business continues to generate significant amounts of cash beyond what is necessary for the expansion and growth of our current offerings. We regularly review the many internal opportunities which we have to utilize this cash, both from a geographic and product line perspective. We continue our efforts in investigating potential acquisitions as both a use for this cash and to generate shareholder value. Our primary focus in the acquisition area remains on the petroleum additives industry. It is our view that this industry will provide the greatest opportunity for a good return on our investment while minimizing risk. We remain focused on this strategy and will evaluate any future opportunities. Nonetheless, we are patient in this pursuit and intend to make the right acquisition when the opportunity arises. We will continue to evaluate all alternative uses of that cash to enhance shareholder value, including stock repurchases and dividends.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
At
June 30, 2013
, there were no significant changes in our market risk from the information provided in the
2012
Annual Report.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance of the reliability of the financial records and the protection of assets. Our controls and procedures include written policies and procedures, careful selection and training of qualified personnel, and an internal audit program. We use third-party firms, separate from our independent registered public accounting firm, to assist with internal audit services.
We work closely with the business groups, operations personnel, and information technology to ensure transactions are recorded properly. Environmental and legal staff are consulted to determine the appropriateness of our environmental and legal liabilities for each reporting period. We regularly review the regulations and rule changes that affect our financial disclosures.
Our disclosure control procedures include signed representation letters from our regional officers, as well as senior management.
We have formed a Financial Disclosure Committee (the committee), which is made up of the president of Afton Chemical Corporation, the general counsel of NewMarket, and the controller of NewMarket. The committee, as well as regional management, makes representations with regard to the financial statements that, to the best of their knowledge, the report does not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit a material fact that is necessary to make the statements not misleading with respect to the periods covered by the report.
The committee and the regional management also represent, to the best of their knowledge, that the financial statements and other financial information included in the report fairly present, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operation, and cash flows of the company as of and for the periods presented in the report.
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act), we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.
Legal Proceedings
We are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to our business and include administrative or judicial actions seeking remediation under environmental laws, such as Superfund. Some of these legal proceedings relate to environmental matters and involve governmental authorities. For further information, see “Environmental” in
Note 9
.
While it is not possible to predict or determine with certainty the outcome of any legal proceeding, we believe the outcome of any of these proceedings, or all of them combined, will not result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operation, financial condition, or cash flows.
As we previously disclosed, the United States Department of Justice has advised us that it is conducting a review of certain of our foreign business activities in relation to compliance with relevant U.S. economic sanctions programs and anti-corruption laws, as well as certain historical conduct in the domestic U.S. market, and has requested certain information in connection with such review. We are cooperating with the investigation. In connection with such cooperation, we have voluntarily agreed to provide certain information and are conducting an internal review for that purpose.
ITEM 1A.
Risk Factors
While we attempt to identify, manage, and mitigate risks and uncertainties associated with our business to the extent practical under the circumstances, some level of risk and uncertainty will always be present. Part I, Item 1A of our 2012 Annual Report describes some of the risks and uncertainties associated with our business. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to materially affect our results of operations and our financial condition. We do not believe that there have been any material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2012 Annual Report except as highlighted below.
The following risk factor has been updated from the 2012 Annual Report to provide additional information.
•
Several of our products are produced solely at one location, and a significant disruption or disaster at such a facility could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation.
Several of the products we sell are produced only in one location. We are dependent upon the continued safe operation of these production facilities. These production facilities are subject to various hazards associated with the manufacturing, handling, storage, and transportation of chemical materials and products, including leaks and ruptures, explosions, fires, unscheduled downtime, and environmental hazards. Additionally, these sites may experience significant disruptions in operations due to inclement weather, natural disasters, flooding, and levee breaches. Some of our products involve the manufacturing and handling of a variety of reactive, explosive, and flammable materials. Many of these hazards could cause a disruption in the production of our products. We cannot assure that these facilities will not experience these types of hazards and disruptions in the future or that these incidents will not result in production delays or otherwise have an adverse effect on our results of operation, financial condition, or cash flows in any given period.
As previously discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, on July 2, 2013, Foundry Park I completed the sale of its real estate assets. As a result, the portion of the following risk factor that no longer exists is outlined below.
•
Landlord and financing risks associated with Foundry Park I could adversely affect our financial results.
In January 2007, Foundry Park I entered into a Deed of Lease Agreement with MeadWestvaco under which it is leasing an office building which we have constructed on approximately three acres in Richmond, Virginia.
Our landlord and financing activities may subject us to the following risks:
•
We may incur costs associated with our landlord activities that exceed our expectations and result in the Foundry Park I operations materially negatively impacting our results of operation for our real estate development segment.

ITEM 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On July 17, 2012, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing management to repurchase up to $250 million of NewMarket Corporation's outstanding common stock until December 31, 2014, as market conditions warrant and covenants under our existing agreements permit. We may conduct the share repurchases in the open market and in privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase program does not require NewMarket to acquire any specific number of shares and may be terminated or suspended at any time. Approximately $223 million remained available under the 2012 authorization at
June 30, 2013
. The following table outlines the purchases during the
