SCHEDULE 13D/A

 

This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (the “Amendment”) is being filed on behalf of Jayhawk Institutional Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Jayhawk Institutional”), Jayhawk Investments, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Jayhawk Investments”), their general partner, Jayhawk Capital Management, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Jayhawk”), and its manager, Kent C. McCarthy. This Schedule 13D amends the initial statement on Schedule 13D relating to shares of common stock of LSB Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on January 18, 2001 (the “Original 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the Commission on March 22, 2002, as amended by Amendment No. 2 filed with the Commission on March 28, 2003. The Original 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

 

Securities Acquired: Shares of Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”).

 

Issuer: LSB Industries, Inc.

16 South Pennsylvania

Oklahoma City, OK 73107

 

Item 2. Identity and Background.

 

Jayhawk Institutional and Jayhawk Investments are investment partnerships and Jayhawk is their general partner. Mr. McCarthy is the manager of Jayhawk and controls its activities. Jayhawk Institutional, Jayhawk Investments and Jayhawk are organized under the laws of Delaware and are located at 8201 Mission Road, Suite 110, Prairie Village, KS 66208. The principal occupation of Mr. McCarthy is investment management and he is a United States Citizen. Mr. McCarthy’s business address is 8201 Mission Road, Suite 110, Prairie Village, KS 66208. None of Jayhawk, Jayhawk Investments, Jayhawk Institutional or Mr. McCarthy (i) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding during the last five years or (ii) was or is a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body or competent jurisdiction during the past five years and as a result thereof subject to any judgement, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds.

 

As of February 18, 2002, Jayhawk Investments had invested $768,760 in shares of Common Stock and shares of $3.25 Convertible Exchangeable Class C Preferred Stock (“Class C Preferred Stock”); Jayhawk Institutional had invested $1,388,502 in shares of Common Stock and Class C Preferred Stock; and Mr. McCarthy had invested $435,935 in shares of Common Stock and Class C Preferred Stock. The above amounts include any brokerage commissions incurred in the investments. The source of these funds was the working capital of each entity and the personal funds of Mr. McCarthy, and reported as such in Amendment No. 1 to the Original 13D filed March 22, 2002 (Amendment No. 1).

 

On March 27, 2003, Jayhawk Institutional purchased 450,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 112,500 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1,570,500. The source of funds for this transaction was the working capital of Jayhawk Institutional.

 

On November 1, 2003, Jayhawk Investments exchanged 54,700 shares of Class C Preferred Stock for a non-controlling interest in another entity for $40 per share.

 

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

 

Jayhawk, Jayhawk Investments, Jayhawk Institutional, and Mr. McCarthy (collectively, the “Shareholders”) originally acquired the shares of Common Stock and Class C Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Shares”) because they believed that the Shares were undervalued at the then-current market prices and represented an attractive investment opportunity. The Shareholders further believed that unexploited opportunities to increase the value of the Shares existed. Mr. McCarthy, as a holder of Class C Preferred Stock, participated in the nomination and election of two individuals to serve on the board of directors and hopes to work with the Issuer’s management and board of directors to identify and pursue opportunities to increase the value of the Shares. Such opportunities may include raising additional capital or entering strategic alliances that could fund future growth and expansion or exploring possible business combinations. Jayhawk Investments exchanged its Class C Preferred Stock for the purpose of acquiring a non-controlling interest in another entity.

The Shareholders reserve the right to acquire, or dispose of, additional securities of the Issuer, in the ordinary course of business, to the extent deemed advisable in light of the Shareholders’ general investment and trading policies, market conditions, the availability of shares of Common Stock or Class C Preferred Stock or other factors. The Shareholders may contact the Issuer, officers and directors of the Issuer, third parties and/or other shareholders regarding potential strategies to increase shareholder value. Other than as described above, none of the Shareholders has present plans or proposals which would result in any of the following:

 

1) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;

2) any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;

3) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer;

4) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure;

5) any change in the Issuer’s charter, by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person;

6) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

7) causing a class of securities of the Issuer to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or

8) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
