NOTES TO CONDENSED 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 March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and our consolidated results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016. 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, 2016 (2016 Annual Report), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2017. The December 31, 2016 condensed 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.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to the current presentation.

4. Earnings Per Share

We had 24,819 shares of nonvested restricted stock and restricted stock units at March 31, 2017 and 26,804 shares of nonvested restricted stock and restricted stock units at March 31, 2016 that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share, as their effect on earnings per share would be anti-dilutive.

The nonvested restricted stock is considered a participating security since the restricted stock contains nonforfeitable rights to dividends. As such, we use the two-class method to compute basic and diluted earnings per share for all periods presented since this method yielded a more dilutive result than the treasury-stock method. The following table illustrates the earnings allocation method utilized in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.



	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except per-share amounts)	2017		2016
Earnings per share numerator:
Net income attributable to common shareholders before allocation of earnings to participating securities	$	63,937	$	61,931
Earnings allocated to participating securities	127		131
Net income attributable to common shareholders after allocation of earnings to participating securities	$	63,810	$	61,800
Earnings per share denominator:
Weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding - basic and diluted	11,829		11,839
Earnings per share - basic and diluted	$	5.39	$	5.22

5. Intangibles (Net of Amortization) and Goodwill

The net carrying amount of intangibles and goodwill was $10 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of each type of intangible asset and goodwill are presented in the table below.



	March 31, 2017				December 31, 2016
(in thousands)	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization
Amortizing intangible assets
Formulas and technology	$	2,693	$	2,016	$	2,678	$	1,958
Contracts	2,000		50		2,000		0
Customer bases	6,945		4,036		6,938		3,961
Trademarks and trade names	1,519		1,104		1,513		1,069
Goodwill	4,363				4,295
	$	17,520	$	7,206	$	17,424	$	6,988

All of the intangibles relate to the petroleum additives segment. The change in the gross carrying amount between December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2017 is due to foreign currency fluctuations. There is no accumulated goodwill impairment.

Amortization expense was (in thousands):



Three months ended March 31, 2017	$	218
Three months ended March 31, 2016	1,053

Estimated amortization expense for the remainder of 2017, as well as estimated annual amortization expense related to our intangible assets for the next five years, is expected to be (in thousands):

2018	834
2019	813
2020	504
2021	440

We amortize contracts over 10 years; customer bases over 20 years; formulas and technology over 10 years; and trademarks and trade names over 10 years.

6. Long-term Debt



(in thousands)	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Senior notes - 4.10% due 2022 (net of related deferred financing costs)	$	346,652	$	346,505
Senior notes - 3.78% due 2029	250,000		0
Revolving credit facility	0		156,000
Capital lease obligation	4,761		4,770
	$	601,413	$	507,275

The outstanding 4.10% senior notes have an aggregate principal amount of $350 million and are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act).

On January 4, 2017, we issued $250 million in senior unsecured notes in a private placement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America and certain other purchasers. These notes bear interest at 3.78% and mature on January 4, 2029. Interest is payable semiannually and principal payments of $50 million are payable annually beginning on January 4, 2025. We have the right to make optional prepayments on the notes at any time, subject to certain limitations. The note purchase agreement contains representations, warranties, terms and conditions customary for transactions of this type. These include negative covenants, certain financial covenants, and events of default which are substantially similar to the covenants and events of default in our revolving credit facility. The proceeds from the 3.78% senior notes were used to pay off the outstanding amount on our revolving credit facility.

The capital lease obligation in the table above is related to the Singapore manufacturing facility.

The following table provides information related to the unused portion of our revolving credit facility:



(in thousands)	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Maximum borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility	$	650,000	$	650,000
Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility	0		156,000
Outstanding letters of credit	3,499		3,483
Unused portion of revolving credit facility	$	646,501	$	490,517

The average interest rate for borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 2.1% during the first three months of 2017 and 1.9% during the full year of 2016.

We were in compliance with all covenants under our debt agreements at March 31, 2017 and at December 31, 2016, as applicable.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

We are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to our business and may include administrative or judicial actions. Some of these legal proceedings involve governmental authorities and relate to environmental matters. 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 operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

In late 2013, Afton Chemical Corporation (Afton) initiated a voluntary self-audit of its compliance with certain sections of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) under the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) audit policy (Audit Policy). If any potential TSCA violations are discovered during the audit, we would voluntarily disclose them to the EPA under the Audit Policy. In August 2014, the EPA staff began its own TSCA inspection of both Afton and Ethyl. While it is not possible to predict or determine with certainty the outcome, we do not believe that any findings identified as a result of our audit or the EPA’s TSCA inspection will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

Environmental

We are involved in environmental proceedings and potential proceedings relating to soil and groundwater contamination, disposal of hazardous waste, and other environmental matters at several of our current or former facilities, or at third-party sites where we have been designated as a potentially responsible party (PRP). 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 operations, and cash flows. Our total accruals for environmental remediation, dismantling, and decontamination were approximately $16 million at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Of the total accrual, the current portion is included in accrued expenses and the noncurrent portion is included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Our more significant environmental sites include a former TEL plant site in Louisiana (the Louisiana site) and a Houston, Texas plant site (the Texas site). Together, the amounts accrued on a discounted basis related to these sites represented approximately $9 million of the total accrual above at March 31, 2017 and $10 million of the total accrual above at December 31, 2016, using discount rates ranging from 4% to 9% for both periods. The aggregate undiscounted amount for these sites was $12 million at March 31, 2017 and $13 million at December 31, 2016. Of the total accrued for these two sites, the amount related to remediation of groundwater and soil for the Louisiana site was $4 million at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The amount related to remediation of groundwater and soil for the Texas site was $5 million at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

In 2000, the EPA named us as a 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. In December 2013, the EPA issued its Record of Decision confirming its remedies for the selected Sauget Area 2 sites. We have accrued our estimated proportional share of the remedial costs and expenses addressed in the Record of Decision. We do not believe there is any additional information available as a basis for revision of the liability that we have established at March 31, 2017. The amount accrued for this site is not material.

10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (ASU 2014-09). ASU 2014-09 replaces the previous guidance and clarifies the principles for revenue recognition. It requires a five-step process for revenue recognition that represents the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received by a company. ASU 2014-09 also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for our reporting period beginning January 1, 2018. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. We continue to evaluate whether we will adopt the standard retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment. We expect to continue the evaluation, analysis, and documentation of our adoption of ASU 2014-09 (including those subsequently issued updates that clarify the provisions), throughout most of this year as we work towards implementation and finalize the impact the adoption will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" (ASU 2016-02). The FASB issued ASU 2016-02 to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requiring disclosures related to certain information about leasing arrangements. Under the new guidance, operating leases are, in most cases, required to be recognized on the balance sheet as a lease asset and liability. A modified retrospective approach is required for the adoption of ASU 2016-02, which is effective for our reporting period beginning January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, "Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost" (ASU 2017-07), which requires that an employer report the service cost component of net benefit cost in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement outside of operating profit. ASU 2017-07 also allows only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization in assets. There will be no change to net income as a result of ASU 2017-07, which is effective for our reporting period beginning January 1, 2018. Retrospective application is required for the income statement presentation and prospective application is required for the capitalization of the service cost component in assets.

Overview

When comparing the results of the petroleum additives segment for the first three months of 2017 with the first three months of 2016, net sales increased 6.7% primarily due to increased shipment volumes, with some offset from lower selling prices. Petroleum additives operating profit was 1.3% lower for the first three months of 2017 as compared to the first three months of 2016, but our operating profit margin remained strong at 18.3%.

Our operations generate cash that is in excess of the needs of the business. We continue to invest in and manage the business for the long-term with the goal of helping our customers succeed in their marketplaces. Our investments continue to be in organizational talent, technology development and processes, and global infrastructure, consisting of technical centers, production capability and geographic expansion.

Results of Operations

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the first three months of 2017 was $542.8 million which was an increase of 6.5% from the first three months of 2016 of $509.9 million. The following table shows net sales by segment and product line.

Table of Contents



	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in millions)	2017		2016

Total	540.0		506.1
All other	2.8		3.8
Net sales	$	542.8	$	509.9

Petroleum Additives Segment

The regions in which we operate include North America (the United States and Canada), Latin America (Mexico, Central America, and South America), Asia Pacific, and the Europe/Middle East/Africa/India (EMEAI) region. While there is some fluctuation, the percentage of net sales generated in the regions remained fairly consistent when comparing the first three months of 2017 with the same period in 2016, as well as with the full year in 2016. The percentage of lubricant additives sales and fuel additives sales is also substantially consistent between periods.

Petroleum additives net sales for the first three months of 2017 was $540.0 million compared to $506.1 million for the first three months of 2016, an increase of 6.7%. The increase between the 2017 and 2016 three month periods was predominantly in the Asia Pacific and EMEAI regions with a small decrease in North America.

The following table details the approximate components of the increase in net sales between the first three months of 2017 and 2016.



(in millions)	Three Months
Period ended March 31, 2016	$	506.1
Lubricant additives shipments	40.9
Fuel additives shipments	9.9
Selling prices	(13.3		)
Foreign currency impact, net	(3.6		)
Period ended March 31, 2017	$	540.0

When comparing the two first quarter periods, higher volumes shipped was the predominant factor resulting in the increase in petroleum additives net sales, with both unfavorable selling prices and foreign currency partially offsetting the favorable impact from shipments. The U.S. Dollar strengthened against most of the major currencies in which we transact, with most of the impact on net sales resulting from the change in the Euro.

The volume of product shipments for petroleum additives increased approximately 13.9% on a worldwide basis when comparing the first three months of 2017 with the same period in 2016. Shipments of both lubricant additives and fuel additives products increased. Lubricant additives product shipments increased across all regions except for North America, which was substantially unchanged from levels in the first three months of 2016. The increase in the volume of product shipments in fuel additives for the three month comparative periods was predominantly in the North America and EMEAI regions, which was partially offset by a small decrease in the Latin America region. Fuel additives product shipments in the Asia Pacific region were substantially unchanged when comparing the three months periods.

All Other

The “All other” category includes the operations of the TEL business and certain contracted manufacturing and services associated with Ethyl.

Segment Operating Profit

NewMarket evaluates the performance of the petroleum additives business based on segment operating profit. NewMarket Services Corporation expenses are charged to NewMarket and each subsidiary pursuant to services agreements between the companies. Depreciation on segment property, plant, and equipment, as well as amortization of segment intangible assets, is included in segment operating profit.

Table of Contents

The following table reports segment operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.



	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in millions)	2017		2016
Petroleum additives	$	99.1	$	100.4
All other	$	1.1	$	0.2

Petroleum Additives Segment

The petroleum additives segment operating profit decreased $1.3 million when comparing the first three months of 2017 to the same period in 2016. Both comparative periods included the impact of the same factors that affected gross profit (see discussion below) including a small favorable currency impact for the first three months of 2017 but a much larger favorable currency impact for the same 2016 period, resulting in an unfavorable impact from foreign currency when comparing the first three months of 2017 and 2016. The operating profit margin was 18.3% for the first three months of 2017 as compared to 19.8% for the first three months of 2016. For the rolling four quarters ended March 31, 2017, the operating profit margin for petroleum additives was 18.5%, which is in line with our expectations for 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. Our continued focus is on developing and delivering innovative, technology-driven solutions to our customers.

Gross profit results decreased $6.2 million when comparing the first three months of 2017 and 2016. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 68.8% for the first three months of 2017, up from 65.5% for the first three months of 2016.

When comparing the first three months of 2017 and 2016, the primary factors in the decrease in gross profit resulted from unfavorable selling prices and raw material cost variances, which contributed over 100% of the change. These unfavorable factors were partially offset by a favorable volume variance (as discussed in the Net Sales section above), as well as a small favorable conversion cost variance. The sales price variance for the comparative periods included the impact from foreign currency rates as discussed in the Net Sales section above.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the first three months of 2017 were $2.4 million, or 6.8%, lower as compared to the first three months of 2016. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 6.0% for the first three months of 2017, and 6.9% for the first three months of 2016. Our SG&A costs are primarily personnel-related and include salaries, benefits, and other costs associated with our workforce. There were no significant changes in the drivers of these costs when comparing the periods.

Our investment in research, development, and testing (R&D) for the first three months of 2017 decreased $2.5 million from the first three months of 2016. The decrease was reflected in both the lubricant additives and fuel additives product lines. As a percentage of net sales, R&D was 6.8% for the first three months of 2017 and 7.7% for the first three months of 2016. Our R&D investments reflect our efforts to support the development of solutions that meet our customers' needs, as well as new and evolving standards, and to support our expansion into new product areas. Our approach to R&D investment, 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 investments include personnel-related costs, as well as internal and external testing of our products.

The following discussion references the Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 4 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Interest and Financing Expenses

Interest and financing expenses were $5.6 million for the first three months of 2017 and $4.2 million for the first three months of 2016. The increase in interest and financing expenses between the three month periods of 2017 and 2016 resulted from a higher average interest rate, as well as higher average debt.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (expense), net was income of $0.2 million for the first three months of 2017 and expense of $2.3 million for the first three months of 2016. The amount for the 2016 period included the impact from a derivative instrument representing an interest rate swap recorded at fair value through earnings.

Table of Contents

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $24.3 million for the first three months of 2017 and $27.0 million for the first three months of 2016. The effective tax rate was 27.5% for the three months of 2017 and 30.4% for the three months of 2016. The decrease in the effective income tax rate resulted in lower income tax expense of $2.5 million, with the remainder of the change in income tax expense due to slightly lower income before income tax expense.

The effective tax rates for both periods included the benefit of income in foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates than the United States tax rate, as well as a benefit from the U.S. domestic manufacturing tax deduction. During the 2017 period, a higher percentage of our income before income taxes resulted from operations in foreign locations than during the 2016 period, but was partially offset by a lower domestic manufacturing deduction for 2017.

Cash Flows, Financial Condition, and Liquidity

Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2017 were $251.2 million, which was an increase of $59.1 million since December 31, 2016.

Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries amounted to approximately $175.8 million at March 31, 2017 and $189.2 million at December 31, 2016. 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, R&D 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 United States 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 $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. We received no cash dividends from our foreign subsidiaries for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The amount of cash that we repatriate from foreign subsidiaries in any given year is dependent upon many factors including utilization of available cash in the foreign locations for working capital, capital investments, and other needs.

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 and planned capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

Cash Flows – Operating Activities

Cash flows provided from operating activities for the first three months of 2017 were $34.2 million, which included a decrease of $39.8 million from higher working capital requirements. The $39.8 million excluded a favorable foreign currency impact to the components of working capital on the balance sheet.

Other than the increase in cash and cash equivalents, the most significant changes in working capital resulted from an increase in accounts receivable and inventories along with a decrease in accrued expenses, which were offset by an increase in accounts payable. The higher accounts receivable balance was primarily due to higher sales levels in most regions when comparing the first quarter of 2017 with the fourth quarter of 2016. Most of the increase in inventory was in the EMEAI region and resulted from increase in demand, timing of shipments, and replenishment of certain raw materials from levels at the end of 2016. The increase in accounts payable was due to timing of payments, while the decrease in accrued expenses resulted from normal payments for customer-related costs.

Including cash and cash equivalents, as well as the impact of foreign currency on the balance sheet, we had total working capital of $649.3 million at March 31, 2017 and $542.3 million at December 31, 2016. The current ratio was 3.22 to 1 at March 31, 2017 and 2.84 to 1 at December 31, 2016.

Cash Flows – Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $48.3 million during the first three months of 2017 and included $46.3 million for capital expenditures. We expect that our total capital spending during 2017 will exceed the $143 million incurred in 2016, including anticipated spending on phase two of the new manufacturing facility in Singapore, and several improvements to our manufacturing and R&D infrastructure around the world. 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.

Table of Contents

Cash Flows – Financing Activities

Cash provided from financing activities during the first three months of 2017 amounted to $71.8 million. The issuance of our 3.78% senior notes resulted in an inflow of $250 million which was mainly used to pay off $156 million on the revolving credit facility and to pay dividends of $20.7 million. Our long-term debt of $601.4 million at March 31, 2017, increased approximately $94.1 million since December 31, 2016, primarily due to the issuance of the 3.78% senior notes.

Debt

At March 31, 2017, in addition to the revolving credit facility and the 3.78% senior notes 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. These senior notes are registered under the Securities Act.

Revolving Credit Facility – At March 31, 2017, we had a $650 million revolving credit facility, with a $100 million sublimit for multicurrency borrowings, a $75 million sublimit for letters of credit, and a $20 million sublimit for swingline loans. The credit 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. In addition, provisions allow certain of our foreign subsidiaries to borrow under the agreement. Borrowings bear interest at variable rates. The revolving credit facility matures on October 28, 2019.

The following table provides information related to the unused portion of our revolving credit facility:



(in millions)	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Maximum borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility	$	650.0	$	650.0
Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility	0.0		156.0
Outstanding letters of credit	3.5		3.5
Unused portion of revolving credit facility	$	646.5	$	490.5

The 4.10% senior notes, 3.78% senior notes, and the revolving credit facility contain covenants, representations, and events of default that management considers typical of credit arrangements of this nature. The covenants under the 3.78% senior notes include negative covenants, certain financial covenants, and events of default which are substantially similar to the covenants and events of default in our revolving credit facility.

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 3.50 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 March 31, 2017, the Leverage Ratio was 1.50 and the Interest Coverage Ratio was 19.75 under the revolving credit facility, while at December 31, 2016 the Leverage Ratio was 1.28 and the Interest Coverage Ratio was 21.45. We were in compliance with all covenants under the revolving credit facility and the 4.1% senior notes at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. We were in compliance with all covenants under the 3.78% senior notes at March 31, 2017.

As a percentage of total capitalization (total long-term debt and shareholders’ equity), our total long-term debt percentage increased from 51.2% at December 31, 2016 to 53.1% at March 31, 2017. The change in the percentage was primarily the result of the increase in long-term debt partially offset by the increase in shareholders' equity. The change in shareholders’ equity reflects our earnings and impact of the foreign currency translation adjustment offset by the impact of dividend payments. Normally, we repay any outstanding long-term debt with cash from operations or refinancing activities.

Outlook

We are pleased with the overall performance of our business through the first three months of 2017. Our stated goal is to provide a 10% return per year for our shareholders over any five year period (defined by earnings per share growth plus dividends), although we may not necessarily achieve a 10% return each year. We continue to have confidence in our customer-focused strategy and approach to the market. We believe the fundamentals of how we run our business - a long-term view, safety-first culture, customer-focused solutions, technology-driven product offerings, and world-class supply chain capability - will continue to be beneficial for all of our stakeholders.

We expect our petroleum additives segment to deliver solid performance in 2017, after having posted strong operating results over the past several years. We expect that the petroleum additives industry shipment demand will grow at an average annual rate of 1% to 2% over the long-term, as there have been no significant changes in the positive fundamentals of the industry. Over the long-term, we plan to exceed the industry growth rate.

We have made significant investments to expand our capabilities around the world over the last few years, which are continuing in 2017. These investments have been and will continue to be in organizational talent, technology development and processes, and global infrastructure, consisting of technical centers, production capability, and geographic expansion. We intend to utilize these new capabilities to improve our ability to deliver the solutions that our customers value and to expand our global reach and improve profits. We will continue to invest in our capabilities to provide even better service, technology, and customer solutions.

We announced our intent to acquire Aditivos Mexicanos S.A. de C.V. which is a petroleum additives manufacturing, sales and distribution company based in Mexico City, Mexico. We expect to close the transaction in the first half of 2017, pending a regulatory review in Mexico. In addition, construction continues on phase two of our manufacturing facility in Singapore, which is expected to be completed in the second half of 2017 and will more than double our investment there.

Our business generates significant amounts of cash beyond what is necessary for the expansion and growth of our current offerings. We are making investments to position ourselves for the future. We regularly review our many internal opportunities to utilize this cash from a technological, geographic, and product line perspective. We believe our capital spending is creating the capability we need to grow and support our customers worldwide, and our research and development investments are positioning us well to provide added value to our customers. Our primary focus in the acquisition area remains on the petroleum additives industry. It is our view that this industry segment will provide the greatest opportunity for solid returns on our investments 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 cash to enhance shareholder value, including stock repurchases and dividends.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

At March 31, 2017, there were no material changes in our market risk from the information provided in the 2016 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 controls and procedures include signed representation letters from our regional officers, as well as senior management.

We have a Financial Disclosure Committee (the committee), which is made up of the president of Afton, the general counsel of NewMarket, and the controller of NewMarket. The committee makes representations with regard to the financial statements that, to the best of their knowledge, the statements do 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. They also represent that, to the best of their knowledge, the financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in the report.

Management personnel from our geographic regions also represent that, to the best of their knowledge, the financial statements and other financial information from their respective regions, which are included in our consolidated financial statements, fairly present, in all material respects, the financial condition and results of operations of their respective regions 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 such term is defined in 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 at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

In late 2013, Afton initiated a voluntary self-audit of its compliance with certain sections of TSCA under the EPA’s Audit Policy. If any potential TSCA violations are discovered during the audit, we would voluntarily disclose them to the EPA under the Audit Policy. In August 2014, the EPA staff began its own TSCA inspection of both Afton and Ethyl. While it is not possible to predict or determine with certainty the outcome, we do not believe that any findings identified as a result of our audit or the EPA’s TSCA inspection will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
