NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. | The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contain all adjustments necessary, in the opinion of management, to summarize fairly the financial position of Terra Industries Inc. and all majority-owned subsidiaries (Terra) and the results of Terras operations for the periods presented. Because of the seasonal nature of Terras operations and effects of weather-related conditions in several of its marketing areas, results of any interim reporting period should not be considered as indicative of results for a full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with Terras 2002 Annual Report to Stockholders. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years financial statements to conform with current year presentation. |
Basic earning (loss) per share data are based on the weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share data are based on the weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding and the effect of all dilutive potential common shares including stock options, restricted shares and contingent shares.

accounting period. Costs associated with settlement of natural gas purchase contracts and costs for shipping and handling are included in cost of sales.
Terra accounts for its employee stock-based compensation plans in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and the related interpretations, which utilize the intrinsic value method.

2. | Terra Nitrogen (U.K.) Limited was found liable for damages associated with May 1998 recalls of carbonated beverages containing carbon dioxide tainted with benzene, plus interest and attorney fees. Appeals against those judgments were unsuccessful. Certain other beverage manufacturers have indicated their intention to file claims for various and unspecified amounts. Management estimated total claims against Terra from these lawsuits may be £10 million, or $14 million when Terra, in 2001, established reserves to cover estimated loses. |
Terras management believes it has recourse for these claims against its insurer. Although management continues to pursue Terras rights against the insurer, there will be no income recognition for those rights until the litigation is resolved.
Terra is involved in various other legal actions and claims, including environmental matters, arising from the normal course of business. While it is not feasible to predict with certainty the final outcome of these proceedings, management does not believe that these matters, or the U.K. benzene claims, will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, financial position or net cash flows.
3. | Natural gas is the principal raw material used in Terras production of nitrogen products and methanol. Natural gas prices are volatile and we manage this volatility through the use of derivative commodity instruments. Terras normal policy is to hedge 20-80% of our natural gas requirements for the upcoming 12 months and up to 50% of the requirements for the following 24-month period, provided that such arrangements would not result in costs greater than expected selling prices for our finished products. We notify the Board of Directors when we deviate from this policy. The financial derivatives are traded in months forward and settlement dates are scheduled to coincide with gas purchases during those future periods. These contracts reference physical natural gas prices or appropriate NYMEX futures contract prices. Contract prices are frequently based on prices at the most common and financially liquid location of reference for financial derivatives related to natural gas. However, natural gas supplies for Terras facilities are purchased for each plant at locations other than reference points, which often creates a location basis differential between the contract |
7
price and the physical price of natural gas. Accordingly, the use of financial derivatives may not exactly offset the change in the price of physical gas. |
Terra has entered into forward pricing positions for a portion of its natural gas requirements for the remainder of 2003 and part of 2004, consistent with its policy. As a result of its policies, Terra has reduced the potential adverse financial impact of natural gas price increases during the forward pricing period, but conversely, if natural gas prices were to fall, Terra will incur higher costs. Contracts were in place at June 30, 2003 to cover 21% of natural gas requirements for the succeeding twelve months. We also use basis swaps to manage some of the basis risk.
Unrealized losses from forward pricing positions in North America totaled $4.2 million as of June 30, 2003. Terra also had $1.0 million of realized losses on closed North America contracts relating to future periods that have been deferred to the respective period.
For the period ending June 30, 2003, recording the fair value of derivatives resulted in a $4.8 million decrease to current assets, a $7.1 million increase to current liabilities and a $11.9 million increase, before deferred taxes of $4.8 million, to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, which reflected the effective portion of the derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. The decrease to current assets was to recognize the value of open natural gas contracts and the increase to current liabilities was to reclassify deferred gains on closed contracts relating to future periods.
4. | Terra classifies its continuing operations into two business segments: nitrogen products and methanol. The nitrogen products business produces and distributes ammonia, urea, nitrogen solutions and ammonium nitrate to farm distributors and industrial users. The methanol business manufactures and distributes methanol which is used in the production of a variety of chemical derivatives and in the production of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), an oxygenate and an octane enhancer for gasoline. Terra does not allocate interest, income taxes or infrequent items to continuing business segments. Included in Other are general corporate activities not attributable to a specific industry segment. The following summarizes operating results by business segment: |

The impairment of long-lived assets (Note 5) resulted in a decrease of the nitrogen segments long-term assets of $47.4 million in the 2003 second quarter.
5. | On February 27, 2003, Terra suspended production at its Blytheville, Arkansas and Woodward, Oklahoma facilities due to high natural gas prices. On March 5, 2003, Terra reduced ammonia and methanol production rates at its other North American facilities. On March 13, 2003, Terra announced the restart of the idled facilities and the resumption of near capacity production of its other North American facilities. |
8
On June 26, 2003, Terra suspended production at its Blytheville, Arkansas facility due to expectations that the facility would not cover its cash costs because of continuing high natural gas costs and the seasonal decline in nitrogen fertilizer demand and prices. In response to this action and as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Terra commenced a review to determine if the Blytheville facilitys carrying value was impaired. This review led Terra management to conclude that future market conditions may not justify the ongoing investment in maintenance and replacement capital necessary to extend operations for the remainder of the facilitys useful life. Accordingly a $53.1 million charge was recorded during the second quarter as an Impairment of long-lived assets. Terra currently plans to keep the Blytheville facility in a mothballed condition and may operate the facility from time to time as market conditions allow.
6. | On May 21, 2003, Terra Capital, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Terra Industries Inc. issued $202 million of 11.5% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due in 2010. The notes were priced at 99.402% to yield 11.625%. The estimated fees and expenses of the transaction total $7 million. Terra used the proceeds of the offering to repay its 10.5% Senior Notes due 2005. |
The notes are secured by a second priority security interest in certain domestic current assets and intellectual property of Terra Industries Inc. and its subsidiaries and capital stock of certain of its subsidiaries. The security interest will be second in priority to a first priority security interest in the same assets in favor of the lenders under Terras revolving credit facility and will be shared equally and ratably with Terras outstanding 12.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2008.
7. | Our pension liabilities were $226 million at December 31, 2002, which was $91 million higher than pension plan assets. The pension liability was computed based on a 6.3% discount rate based on yields for high-quality corporate bonds with a maturity approximating the duration of our pension liability. Declines in comparable bond yields would increase our pension liability and increases in comparable bond yields would reduce our pension liability. Our net pension liability, after deduction of plan assets, could also increase or decrease depending on the extent to which returns on pension plan assets are lower or higher than the 6.3% discount rate. |
8. | Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, was effective for our financial statements as of January 1, 2003. This standard required us to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position. |
SFAS No. 149, Amendments of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, amends and clarifies financial accounting for derivative instruments. This standard becomes effective in our third quarter. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. This standard became effective for contracts entered into after May 31, 2003. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, clarifies that a guarantor is required to
9
recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain guarantees. FIN 45 also expands the disclosure to be made by a guarantor in its financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. The provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim reporting purposes. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that reflect significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Our critical accounting policies are described below.
Impairments of long-lived assetsWe record impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount of these items. Our cash flow estimates are based on historical results adjusted to reflect our best estimate of future market and operating conditions. The net carrying value of assets not recoverable is reduced to fair value. Our estimates of fair value represent our best estimate based on industry trends and reference to market rates and transactions. The recoverability of these assets depends highly upon the realization of certain underlying assumptions, such as future product prices and costs. During the 2003 second quarter, events occurred that necessitated an evaluation of recoverability of assets at our Blytheville facility.
On June 26, 2003, we suspended production at our Blytheville facility due to expectations that the facility would not cover its cash costs because of continuing high natural gas costs and the seasonal decline in nitrogen fertilizer demand and prices. In response to this action and as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, we commenced a review to determine if the Blytheville facilitys carrying value was impaired. This review led us to conclude that future market conditions may not justify the ongoing investment in maintenance and replacement capital necessary to extend operations for the remainder of the facilitys useful life. Accordingly a $53.1 million charge was recorded during the second quarter as an Impairment of long-lived assets. We currently plan to keep the Blytheville facility in a mothballed condition and may operate the facility from time to time as market conditions allow.
Pension assets and liabilitiesPension assets and liabilities are affected by the estimated market value of plan assets, estimated expected return on plan assets and discount rates. Actual changes in the fair market value of plan assets and differences between the actual return on plan assets and the expected return on plan assets will affect the amount of pension expense ultimately recognized. Our pension liabilities were $226 million at December 31, 2002, which was $91 million higher than pension plan assets. The pension liability was computed based on a 6.3% discount rate based on yields for high-quality corporate bonds with a maturity approximating the duration of our pension liability. Declines in comparable bond yields would increase our pension liability and increases in comparable bond yields would reduce our pension liability. Our net pension liability, after deduction of plan assets, could also increase or decrease depending on the extent to which returns on pension plan assets are lower or higher than the 6.3% discount rate.
18
Post-retirement benefitsPost-retirement benefits are determined on an actuarial basis and are affected by assumptions including the discount rate and expected trends in health care costs. Changes in the discount rate and differences between actual and expected health care costs will affect the recorded amount of post-retirement benefits expense ultimately recognized.
Revenue recognitionRevenue is recognized when title to finished product passes to the customer. Revenue is recognized as the net amount to be received after deducting estimated amounts for discounts and trade allowances. Revenue includes amounts paid by customers for shipping and handling.
Deferred income taxesDeferred income tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis as well as temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. Deferred tax assets are regularly reviewed for recoverability and a valuation allowance is established based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income, and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. If we continue to operate at a loss or are unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, or if there is a material change in the actual effective tax rates or time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or deductible, a valuation allowance against all or a significant portion of our deferred tax assets may be required.
Inventory valuationInventories are stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. The average cost of inventories is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The nitrogen and methanol industries are characterized by rapid change in both demand and pricing. Rapid declines in demand could result in temporary or permanent curtailment of production, while rapid declines in price could result in a lower of cost or market adjustment.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 COMPARED WITH
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002
Consolidated Results
Terra reported a net loss of $31.1 million for the 2003 second quarter compared with a net loss of $8.5 million in 2002. The increased 2003 loss was primarily related to $53.1 million of impairment charges to write down our Blytheville nitrogen facility to estimated fair value. The effect of the impairment charge was to reduce 2003 net income by $27.0 million (representing the $53.1 million impairment charge, less $9.9 million allocated to minority interest and $16.2 million of income tax benefits).
Terra classifies its operations into two business segments: nitrogen products and methanol. The nitrogen products segment represents operations directly related to the wholesale sales of nitrogen products from Terras ammonia production and upgrading facilities. The methanol segment represents wholesale sales of methanol produced by Terras two methanol manufacturing plants.

Nitrogen products segment revenues increased $58.0 million to $315.7 million in the 2003 second quarter compared with $257.7 million in the 2002 second quarter primarily as a result of higher sales prices. Lower nitrogen supplies were the primary factor causing the increased prices as compared to the 2002 second quarter. Sales volumes during the 2003 second quarter were impacted by lower production rates, competition from imports and reduced demand in response to high prices and the delayed planting season in some of our market areas.
Excluding charges for impairment of long-lived assets, the nitrogen products segment had operating income of $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2003 compared with operating income of $2.2 million for the 2002 second quarter. The effect of higher sales prices on 2003 operating income was mostly offset by higher natural gas costs. Natural gas costs increased $63 million from the 2003 second quarter as unit costs, net of forward pricing gains and losses, were $4.76/MMBtu during the 2003 second quarter compared to $2.86/MMBtu during the same 2002 period. As a result of forward price contracts, second quarter 2003 natural gas costs for the nitrogen products segment were $2.4 million higher than spot prices.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets
We record impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount of these items. Our cash flow estimates are based on historical results adjusted to reflect our best estimate of future market and operation conditions. The net carrying value of assets not recoverable is reduced to fair value. Our estimates of fair value represent our best estimate based on industry trends and reference to market rates and transactions. The recoverability of these assets is highly dependent upon the realization of certain underlying assumptions, such as future product prices and natural gas costs. During the 2003 second quarter, events occurred that necessitated an evaluation of recoverability of assets at our Blytheville facility.
On June 26, 2003, we suspended production at our Blytheville facility due to expectations that the facility would not cover its cash costs because of continuing high natural gas costs and the seasonal decline in nitrogen fertilizer demand and prices. In response to this action and as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, a $53.1 million charge was recorded during the second quarter as discussed more fully above under Critical Accounting Policies.
Methanol
For the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 the Methanol segment had revenues of $62.9 million and $41.9 million, respectively. Sales volumes decreased 8% from prior year levels and sales prices increased from $.47/gallon in 2002 to $.77/gallon in 2003.
The methanol segment had operating income of $3.1 million for the 2003 second quarter compared to an operating loss of $0.4 million for the 2002 second quarter. The increase to operating income was due to higher prices partially offset by higher natural gas costs, which net of forward pricing gains and losses, were $5.27/MMBtu during the 2003 second quarter compared to $3.07/MMBtu during the 2002 period. As a result of forward pricing contracts, second quarter 2003 natural gas costs for the methanol segment were $0.4 million higher than spot prices.
Other IncomeNet
Terra had other operating losses of $1.5 million in the 2003 second quarter compared to $1.2 million operating losses in the 2002 second quarter. These losses relate primarily to legal expenses for corporate activities not assignable to either business segment.
Minority Interest
Minority interest represents third-party interests in the earnings or losses of the publicly held common units of Terra Nitrogen Company, L.P. (TNCLP). Minority interest credits of $11.0 million were recorded for the 2003 second quarter as the result of TNCLP losses, which included impairment charges for long-lived assets relating to the Blytheville facility and were included in their entirety in consolidated operating results. Minority interest charges of $.7 million recorded for the 2002 second quarter reflected nitrogen earnings for TNCLP, which were included in their entirety in consolidated financial results.
21
Interest ExpenseNet
Interest expense, net of interest income, totaled $15.1 million during the 2003 second quarter compared with $13.2 million for the prior year period. Interest expense increased $.2 million due to higher interest rates associated with $202 million of long-term debt issued in May, 2003 and an additional $1.7 million due to a thirty-day waiting period from issuance of the new debt before existing debt balances could be retired.
Income Taxes
Income taxes for the second quarter 2003 and 2002 were recorded at an effective tax rate of 38% and 37%, respectively, Terras estimated annual effective tax rate.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 COMPARED WITH
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002
Consolidated Results
Terra reported a net loss from operations of $45.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared with a net loss from operations of $17.6 for the same period in 2002. The increase in the 2003 loss was primarily related to $53.1 of impairment charges to write down our Blytheville nitrogen facility to estimated fair value.
Terra classifies its operations into two business segments: nitrogen products and methanol. The nitrogen products segment represents operations directly related to the wholesale sales of nitrogen products from Terras ammonia production and upgrading facilities.

Nitrogen products segment revenues increased $101.6 million to $544.3 million in the 2003 first half compared with $442.7 million in the 2002 first half primarily as a result of higher sales prices. Lower nitrogen supplies were the primary factor causing the increased prices as compared to the 2002 first half. High natural gas costs resulted in industry-wide production curtailments leading up to the 2003 planting season.
Excluding charges for impairment of long-lived assets, the nitrogen products segment had an operating loss of $8.0 million for the first half of 2003 compared with operating income of $2.9 million for the 2002 first half. The decrease in operating income was primarily related to higher natural gas costs that were mostly offset by higher sales prices. Natural gas costs increased $130 million from the 2002 first half as unit costs, net of forward pricing gains and losses, were $4.81/MMBtu during the 2003 first half compared to $2.79/MMBtu during the same 2002 period. As a result of forward price contracts, first half 2003 natural gas costs for the nitrogen products segment were $5.8 million lower than spot prices.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
During the 2003 second quarter and as described more fully above, we recorded a $53.1 million charge for impairment of long-lived assets.
Methanol
For the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 the methanol segment had revenues of $114.0 million and $70.2 million, respectively. Sales volumes decreased 13% from prior year levels, but selling prices increased from $.41/gallon in 2002 to $.76/gallon in 2003. The sales decline was due, in part, to production outages related to a scheduled plant turnaround.
The methanol segment generated $4.7 million operating income in the 2003 first half compared to a $3.0 million operating loss in the 2002 first half. The higher operating income reflects higher selling prices, offset by higher costs and decreased volumes. The major cost increase was to natural gas costs which, net of forward pricing gains and losses, increased to $5.39/MMBtu, during the 2003 first half compared to $2.80/MMBtu during the 2002 period. First half 2003 natural gas costs were $2.2 million lower than spot prices as a result of forward pricing contracts.
23
Other IncomeNet
Terra had other operating losses of $2.8 million in the 2003 first half compared to $0.7 million operating losses in the 2002 first half. The increase to expenses relate primarily to legal expenses for corporate activities not assignable to either business segment.
Minority Interest
Minority interest represents third-party interests in the earnings of the publicly held common units of Terra Nitrogen Company, L.P. (TNCLP). Minority interest credits of $12.7 million were recorded for the 2003 first half as the result of TNCLP losses, which included impairment charges for long-lived assets related to the Blytheville facility and were included in their entirety in consolidated operating results. The minority interest charge of $1.3 million in the 2002 first half reflected nitrogen earnings for TNCLP, which were included in their entirety in consolidated operating results.
Interest ExpenseNet
Interest expense, net of interest income, totaled $27.5 million during the 2003 first half compared with $26.5 million for the prior year period. Interest expense increased $.2 million due to higher interest rates associated with $202 million of long-term debt issued in May, 2003 and an additional $1.7 million due to a thirty-day waiting period from issuance of the new debt before existing debt balances could be retired.
Income Taxes
Income taxes for the first half of 2003 and 2002 were recorded at an effective tax rate of 38%, Terras estimated annual effective tax rate.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our primary uses of funds will be to fund our working capital requirements, make payments on our debt and other obligations and make capital expenditures. The principal sources of funds will be cash flow from operations and borrowings under available bank facilities.
Net cash used in operations in the first six months of 2003 was $46.5 million, composed of $17.4 million of cash provided from operating activities, net of $63.9 million used to fund working capital needs. Working capital needs primarily consisted of the utilization of $40.5 million in customer prepayments received at year-end, as well as higher accounts receivable and inventories in response to higher sales and natural gas values.
We have a $175 million revolving credit facility that expires in June 2005. Borrowing availability under the credit facility is generally based on eligible cash balances, 85% of eligible accounts receivable and 65% of eligible inventory, less outstanding letters of credit. At June 30, 2003, we had $34.8 million revolving credit borrowings and $32.5 million in outstanding letters of credit, resulting in remaining borrowing availability of approximately $67.5 million under the facility. We are required to maintain a minimum unused borrowing availability of $30 million. The credit facility also requires that we adhere to certain limitations on additional debt, capital expenditures, acquisitions, liens, asset sales, investments, prepayments of subordinated indebtedness, changes in lines of business and transactions with affiliates. In addition, if our borrowing availability falls below $60 million, we are required to have generated $60 million of operating cash flows, or earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash items (as defined in the credit facility) for the preceding four quarters. The amount of operating cash flows to measure credit facility compliance is different than amounts that can be derived
24
from Terras financial statements. For the 12 months ended June 30, 2003, operating cash flows as defined in the credit facility was $82.6 million.
Since June 30, we have experienced cash needs arising from margin calls on our forward natural gas positions as a result of declining prices, tightened terms by trade creditors and other operating requirements. As a result, our ability to meet bank covenants will depend on future operating cash flows, working capital needs, receipt of customer prepayments and trade credit terms. Failure to meet these covenants could require additional costs and fees to amend the bank facilities or could result in termination of the facilities. Access to adequate bank facilities is critical to funding our operating cash needs. We currently anticipate that we will be able to meet our covenants through the end of this year, but that we will be close to the limits imposed by the covenants. While natural gas prices have recently declined, if product margins in the second half of 2003 were to be as depressed as during portions of the first half, or if there were to be any adverse changes in the other factors discussed above, we may need a waiver of our bank covenants to meet our 2004 seasonal working capital needs. There is no assurance we could receive such waivers.
Because we expect to be close to the limits imposed by our bank agreement covenants, our ability to manage our exposure to commodity price risk in the purchase of natural gas through the use of financial derivatives may be limited.
On August 5, 2003, Standard & Poors Rating Services (S&P) lowered our corporate credit rating from BB- to B+. As of the date of this filing, the following table sets forth the ratings information from S&P, Moodys Investor Services (Moodys) and Fitch, IBCA, Duff & Phelps (Fitch):

On May 21, 2003, we issued $202 million of 11.5% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due in 2010. The notes were priced at 99.402% to yield 11.625%. We used the proceeds to repay our 10.5% Senior Notes due in 2005. As a result of these transactions, maturities of long-debt are as follows: 2004$0.2 million, 2005$36.0 million, 2006none, 2007none, 2008$200.0 million, and for 2009 and beyond$202 million.
During the first half of 2003 and 2002, we funded plant and equipment purchases of $5.9 million and $9.0 million, respectively, primarily for replacement or stay-in-business capital needs. We expect 2003 plant and equipment purchases to approximate $15 million, consisting primarily of the expenditures for routine replacement of equipment at manufacturing facilities.
Plant turnaround costs represent cash used for the periodic scheduled major maintenance of our continuous process production facilities that is performed at each plant generally every two years. We funded $20.3 million and $8.1 million of plant turnaround during the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively. Plant turnaround costs for 2003 are expected to approximate $30 million.
Our pension liabilities were $226 million at December 31, 2002, which was $91 million higher than pension plan assets. The pension liability was computed based on a 6.3% discount rate based on yields for
25
high-quality corporate bonds with a maturity approximating the duration of our pension liability. Declines in comparable bond yields would increase our pension liability and future increases in comparable bond yields would decrease our pension liability. Our net pension liability, after deduction of plan assets, could also increase or decrease depending on the extent to which returns on pension plan assets are lower or higher than the 6.3% discount rate. Our cash contributions to pension plans were $7 million in 2002 and, based on the 2002 assumptions, are estimated at $7 million in 2003, $20 million in 2004, $15 million in 2005 and $7 million in 2006. Actual contributions for 2004 and beyond could vary depending on actual returns for plan assets, legislative changes to pension funding requirements and plan amendments.
During the first six months of 2003 we distributed $1.2 million to the minority TNCLP common unitholders. TNCLP distributions are based on Available Cash (as defined in the Partnership Agreement). No cash distributions were paid during the first six months of 2002.
Cash balances at June 30, 2003 were $12.4 million, all of which is unrestricted.
POTENTIAL CHANGE OF CONTROL
Anglo American plc, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, owns 48.9% of Terra Industries outstanding shares. Anglo American has made public its intention to dispose of its interest in Terra Industries with the timing based on market and other conditions.
FORWARD-LOOKING PRECAUTIONS
Information contained in this report, other than historical information, may be considered forward- looking. Forward-looking information reflects managements current views of future events and financial performance that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the following: changes in financial markets, general economic conditions within the agricultural industry, changes in competitive factors and prices, (principally, sales prices of nitrogen and methanol products and natural gas costs), changes in product mix, changes in the seasonality of demand patterns, changes in weather conditions, changes in agricultural regulations, and other risks detailed in the Factors that Affect Operating Results section of Terras most recent Form 10-K.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse changes in financial and commodity market prices and rates. We use derivative financial instruments to manage risk in the areas of natural gas prices, foreign currency fluctuations and interest rates. For more information about how we manage specific risk exposures, refer to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K (which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission), Item 7A Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk and Note 13Derivative Financial Instruments contained in Item 8.
Our operations are significantly affected by the price of natural gas. We employ derivative commodity instruments related to a portion of our natural gas requirements (primarily futures, swaps and options) for the purpose of managing our exposure to commodity price risk in the purchase of natural gas. Changes in the market value of these derivative instruments have a high correlation to changes in the spot price of natural gas. The volume of natural gas hedged varies from time to time based on managements judgment of market conditions, particularly natural gas prices and prices for nitrogen products and methanol. Contracts were in place at June 30, 2003 to cover 21% of our natural gas requirements for the succeeding twelve months (see Note 3). Because we expect to be close to the limits imposed by our bank agreement
26
covenants for the rest of this year, our future ability to manage our exposure to commodity price risk in the purchase of natural gas through the use of financial derivatives may be limited.
At June 30, 2003, we had no forward positions in any foreign currency.
Our only outstanding debt with floating rates at June 30, 2003 was $35.8 million of borrowings under our bank lines. There were no interest rate derivatives outstanding at June 30, 2003.
On May 21, 2003, we issued $202 million of 11.5% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due in 2010. The notes were priced at 99.402% to yield 11.625%. We used the proceeds to repay our 10.5% Senior Notes due in 2005.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
