NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.	Accounting Policies

In the opinion of Sensient Technologies Corporation (the Company), the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2025, and the results of operations, comprehensive income, and shareholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Expenses are charged to operations in the period incurred.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires the Company to disclose segment expenses that are significant and regularly provided to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (CODM). In addition, this ASU requires the Company to disclose the title and position of its CODM and how the CODM uses segment profit or loss information in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this standard in the fourth quarter of 2024 using a retrospective transition method, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which will require the Company to disclose specified additional information in its income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. This ASU will also require the Company to disaggregate its income taxes paid disclosure by federal, state, and foreign taxes, with further disaggregation required for significant individual jurisdictions. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company will adopt this ASU in the fourth quarter of 2025 using a prospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and its related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) – Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which will require the Company to disclose disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and its related disclosures.

Please refer to the notes in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, for additional details of the Company’s financial condition and a description of the Company’s accounting policies, which have been continued without change.

2.	Acquisition

On February 14, 2025, the Company acquired Biolie SAS, a natural color extraction business located in France. The Company paid $4.9 million in cash for this acquisition, which is net of $0.2 million in debt assumed. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair value as of the acquisition date. The Company acquired net assets of $0.3 million, with the remaining $4.6 million allocated to goodwill. This business is part of the Color segment.

Index

3.	Portfolio Optimization Plan

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to undertake an effort to optimize certain production facilities and improve efficiencies within the Company (Portfolio Optimization Plan). As part of the Portfolio Optimization Plan, in the Flavors & Extracts segment, the Company evaluated the closure of its manufacturing facility in Felinfach, Wales, United Kingdom, the closure of its sales office in Granada, Spain, and the centralization and elimination of certain selling and administrative positions. In addition, in the Color segment, the Company evaluated the closure of a manufacturing facility in Delta, British Columbia, Canada, the closure of a sales office in Argentina, and centralizing and eliminating certain production positions and selling and administrative positions. The Company reports all costs associated with the Portfolio Optimization Plan in the Corporate & Other segment.

The Company’s Felinfach site was shut down in May 2025, and all production activities have been transferred to other locations. The Company began marketing the Felinfach site for sale in June 2025. As a result, the Company met all of the assets held for sale criteria for the Felinfach land and building assets, which have been recorded as the only balance in Fixed assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has substantially completed all other actions contemplated under the Portfolio Optimization Plan in accordance with local laws.

The Company recorded $0.3 million and $2.5 million of accrued liabilities in Other Accrued Expenses on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets related to the Portfolio Optimization Plan as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company expects the Portfolio Optimization Plan will cost approximately $45 million (increased from $40 million, as previously disclosed, primarily due to higher than anticipated decommissioning costs), of which $40.7 million has been incurred through June 30, 2025, primarily related to non-cash impairment charges and employee separation costs. We anticipate that the Portfolio Optimization Plan will reduce annual operating costs by approximately $8 million to $10 million, with the full benefit expected to be achieved after 2025. The Company reduced headcount by approximately 100 positions, primarily in the Flavors & Extracts and Color segments, related to certain production and selling and administrative positions.

The following table summarizes the Portfolio Optimization Plan expenses by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2025:

4.	Trade Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivables are recorded at their face amount, less an allowance for expected losses on doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is calculated based on customer-specific analysis and an aging methodology using historical loss information. The Company believes historical loss information is a reasonable basis for expected credit losses as the Company’s historical credit loss experience correlates with its customer delinquency status. This information is also adjusted for any known current economic conditions. Forecasted economic conditions have not had a significant impact on the current credit loss estimate due to the short-term nature of the Company’s customer receivables; however, the Company will continue to monitor and evaluate the rapidly changing economic conditions. Additionally, as the Company only has one portfolio segment, there are not different risks between portfolios. Specific accounts are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when the receivable is deemed no longer collectible.

The following table summarizes the changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Debt

On June 13, 2025, the Company entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement provides for a $400 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility, with up to $20 million of the facility being available as a sub-facility for standby and commercial letters of credit and sub-limits of up to $50 million on swing line loans. The Credit Agreement amended and restated the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the aggregate revolving commitment amount from $350 million to $400 million, (ii) increase the incremental revolving commitment from $100 million to $150 million, (iii) extend the maturity of the Company’s revolving credit facility from May 2026 to June 2030, and (iv) modify certain other provisions. Funds are available in U.S. dollars, Euros, English pounds, and other major currencies. Proceeds from the facility will be used to refinance existing indebtedness of the Company, for working capital, and other general corporate purpose needs, including capital expenditures, of the Company.

On June 13, 2025, the Company also amended its term loan agreement with PNC Bank, N.A. to extend the termination date from November 2025 to June 2027.

On June 30, 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 12 (Receivables Amendment) to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated October 3, 2016. The Receivables Amendment amends the Receivables Purchase Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the facility limit from $85 million to $105 million and (ii) extend the termination date of the Receivables Purchase Agreement from August 29, 2025 to August 31, 2026.

7.	Fair Value

Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value for financial assets and liabilities, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The carrying values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short-term borrowings were approximately the same as the fair values as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The net fair value of the forward exchange contracts based on current pricing obtained for comparable derivative products (Level 2 inputs) was an asset of $0.9 million and a liability of $0.8 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, including the portions of long-term debt classified as Short-term borrowings on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, is estimated using discounted cash flows based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements (Level 2 inputs). The carrying value of the long-term debt at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was $735.3 million and $613.7 million, respectively. The fair value of the long-term debt at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was $745.9 million and $622.0 million, respectively.

8.	Segment Information

The Company evaluates performance based on operating income before share-based compensation (except for share-based compensation expense associated with stock grants to certain business unit leaders); restructuring and other charges, including Portfolio Optimization Plan costs; interest expense; and income taxes (segment operating income). Total revenue and segment operating income by business segment and geographic region include both sales to customers, as reported in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Earnings, and intersegment sales, which are accounted for at prices that approximate market prices and are eliminated in consolidation.

Assets by business segment and geographic region are those assets used in the Company’s operations in each segment and geographic region. Segment assets reflect the allocation of goodwill to each segment. Corporate & Other assets consist primarily of accounts receivables from the securitization program, investments, deferred tax assets, and fixed assets.

The Company determines its operating segments based on information utilized by its chief operating decision maker (CODM) to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s CODM is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment operating income or loss to allocate resources, which includes employees, financial, or capital resources, predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual and year-over-year variances on a monthly basis for segment operating income or loss when allocating capital and personnel resources to the segments. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating income of the respective business units before share-based compensation (except for share-based compensation expense associated with stock grants to certain business unit leaders) and restructuring and other charges, including the Portfolio Optimization Plan costs, which are reported in Corporate & Other.

The Company’s three reportable segments are the Flavors & Extracts and Color segments, which are both managed on a product line basis, and the Asia Pacific segment, which is managed on a geographic basis. The Company’s Flavors & Extracts segment produces flavor, extracts, and essential oils products that impart a desired taste, texture, aroma, or other characteristics to a broad range of consumer and other products. The Color segment produces natural and synthetic color systems for foods, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and nutraceuticals; colors, ingredients, and systems for personal care; and technical colors for industrial applications. The Asia Pacific segment is managed on a geographic basis and produces and distributes color, flavor, and essential oils products for the Asia Pacific countries. The Company’s corporate expenses, share-based compensation (except for share-based compensation expense associated with stock grants to certain business unit leaders), and restructuring and other charges, including Portfolio Optimization Plan costs, are included in the “Corporate & Other” category.

The Company’s service cost portion of defined benefit expense is recorded in Selling and Administrative Expenses on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

10.	Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity

The Company may use forward exchange contracts and foreign currency denominated debt to manage its exposure to foreign exchange risk in order to reduce the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies on short-term foreign currency denominated intercompany transactions, non-functional currency raw material purchases, non-functional currency sales, and other known foreign currency exposures. These forward exchange contracts generally have maturities of less than 18 months. The Company’s primary hedging activities and their accounting treatment are summarized below.

Forward exchange contracts – Certain forward exchange contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges. The Company had $39.6 million and $70.3 million of forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges outstanding as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the amounts reclassified into net earnings in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Earnings that offset the underlying transactions’ impact on earnings in the same period were not material. In addition, the Company utilizes forward exchange contracts that are not designated as cash flow hedges. The results of these transactions were not material to the financial statements of the Company.

Net investment hedges – The Company has designated certain foreign currency denominated long-term borrowings as partial hedges of the Company’s foreign currency net asset positions. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the total value of the Company’s net investment hedges was $334.9 million and $295.3 million, respectively. These net investment hedges included Euro and British Pound denominated long-term debt. Changes in the fair value of this debt attributable to changes in the spot foreign exchange rate are recorded in foreign currency translation in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the impact of foreign exchange rates on these debt instruments increased debt by $26.8 million and decreased debt by $1.9 million, respectively, which has been recorded as foreign currency translation in OCI. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the impact of foreign exchange rates on these debt instruments increased debt by $39.6 million and decreased debt by $8.5 million, respectively, which has been recorded as foreign currency translation in OCI.

11.	Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, were 25.3% and 26.4%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the effective income tax rates were 25.3% and 26.7%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were both impacted by the mix of foreign earnings and changes in estimates associated with the finalization of prior year foreign tax items. The effective tax rates for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were further impacted by the limited tax deductibility of costs related to the Portfolio Optimization Plan.

Cash Flow Hedges and Pension Items are net of tax.

13.	Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various claims and litigation arising in the normal course of business. The Company establishes reserves for claims and proceedings when it is probable that liabilities exist, and reasonable estimates of loss can be made. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of these matters, based on our assessment of the facts and circumstances now known, we do not believe that these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. However, actual outcomes may be different from those expected and could have a material effect on our results of operations or cash flows in a particular period.

14.	Subsequent Event

On July 24, 2025, the Company announced its quarterly dividend of $0.41 per share would be payable on September 2, 2025.

Revenue was $806.6 million and $788.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to higher selling prices. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the impact of foreign exchange rates increased consolidated revenue by approximately 1% and decreased revenue by approximately 1%, respectively.

Gross Margin

The Company’s gross margin was 34.5% and 32.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s gross margin was 34.0% and 32.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, Portfolio Optimization Plan costs totaling $1.8 million and $3.6 million, respectively, decreased gross margin by 40 and 50 basis points, respectively. Portfolio Optimization Plan costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 had an immaterial impact on gross margin. See Portfolio Optimization Plan below for further information. The Company’s gross margins for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were further impacted by the favorable pricing, partially offset by higher raw material costs.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expense as a percent of revenue was 20.6% and 20.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Selling and administrative expense as a percent of revenue was 20.3% and 20.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, selling and administrative expenses were increased by Portfolio Optimization Plan costs totaling $1.6 and $1.5 million, respectively, which increased selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue by approximately 40 basis points for each period. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, selling and administrative expenses were increased by Portfolio Optimization Plan costs totaling $2.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively, which increased selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue by approximately 40 and 60 basis points, respectively. See Portfolio Optimization Plan below for further information. The remaining increase in selling and administrative expense as a percent of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to higher performance-based executive compensation costs incurred in 2025.

Index

Operating Income

Operating income was $57.7 million and $49.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Operating margins were 13.9% and 12.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Portfolio Optimization Plan costs decreased operating margins by approximately 80 and 40 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in operating margin was primarily due to the higher selling prices, partially offset by higher raw material costs and higher performance-based executive compensation costs incurred in 2025.

Operating income was $111.2 million and $99.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Operating margins were 13.8% and 12.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Portfolio Optimization Plan costs decreased operating margins by approximately 80 and 50 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in operating margin was primarily due to the higher selling prices, partially offset by higher raw material costs and higher performance-based executive compensation costs incurred in 2025.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Within the following tables, the Company reports certain non-GAAP financial measures, including: (1) adjusted operating income, adjusted net earnings, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, which exclude restructuring and other costs, including the Portfolio Optimization Plan costs, (2) percentage changes in revenue, operating income, and diluted earnings per share on an adjusted local currency basis, which eliminate the effects that result from translating its international operations into U.S. dollars and restructuring and other costs, including the Portfolio Optimization Plan costs, and (3) adjusted EBITDA, which excludes restructuring and other costs, including the Portfolio Optimization Plan costs, and non-cash share based compensation expense.

The Company has included each of these non-GAAP measures in order to provide additional information regarding our underlying operating results and comparable year-over-year performance. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation. Rather, they should be considered together with GAAP measures and the rest of the information included in this report. Management internally reviews each of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance on a comparative period-to-period basis and to gain additional insight into underlying operating and performance trends, and the Company believes the information can be beneficial to investors for the same purposes. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Financial Condition

The Company’s financial position remains strong. The Company is in compliance with its loan covenants calculated in accordance with applicable agreements as of June 30, 2025. The Company expects its cash flow from operations and its existing debt capacity can be used to meet anticipated future cash requirements for operations, capital expenditures, and dividend payments, as well as potential acquisitions and stock repurchases. The Company’s contractual obligations consist primarily of operational commitments, which we expect to continue to be able to satisfy through cash generated from operations and debt. The Company has various series of notes outstanding that mature from 2025 through 2029. The Company believes that it has the ability to refinance or repay these obligations through a combination of cash flow from operations, issuance of additional notes, and sufficient borrowing capacity under the Company’s revolving credit facility, which matures in 2030.

As a result of our ability to manage the impact of inflation through pricing and other actions, the impact of inflation was not material to the Company’s financial position and its results of operations for the three or six months ended June 30, 2025. The Company has experienced increased costs for certain inputs, such as raw materials, shipping and logistics, and labor. We continue to expect to manage these impacts in the near term, but persistent, accelerated, or expanded inflationary conditions could exacerbate these challenges and impact our profitability.

The United States has recently implemented significant tariffs on imports from a wide range of countries and has announced the possibility of implementing additional, or increasing current, tariffs. These actions, and retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries on United States exports, have led to significant volatility and uncertainty in global markets. The Company anticipates incurring incremental tariff costs on certain raw materials to produce our products and certain finished goods shipped to customers. However, the Company expects to manage the impact of the increased tariff costs through pricing actions. To the extent the Company is unable to offset the increased tariff costs, or the tariffs negatively impact demand, the Company’s revenue and profitability would be adversely impacted. If additional tariffs are adopted, the Company would incur additional tariff costs that could be material.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the United States. The OBBBA includes a broad range of tax reform provisions, such as the extension of certain expiring provisions, modifications to the international tax framework, and the continuation of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. We are currently assessing its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $39.3 million and $58.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in net cash from operating activities was primarily due to an increase in cash used for performance-based compensation payments (which are determined based on prior year performance) made during 2025 compared to 2024 and a decrease in cash provided by inventory during 2025 compared to 2024, partially offset by an increase in cash provided by accounts receivable.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $41.5 million and $22.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Capital expenditures were $38.0 million and $22.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In 2025, the Company paid $4.9 million for the acquisition of Biolie SAS.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $26.0 million and net cash used in financing activities was $26.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Net debt increased by $63.3 million and $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The cash proceeds from the increase in net debt in the current period were primarily used to support capital expenditure investments during the six months ended June 30, 2025. For purposes of the cash flow statement, net changes in debt exclude the impact of foreign exchange rates. Dividends of $34.7 million were paid during both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Total dividends of $0.82 per share were paid for both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
