AL., Case Nos. 03-17948 (PCB) through 03-17962 (PCB) (Debtors in Possession) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS Nature of Operations Solutia Inc., together with its subsidiaries (referred to herein as "Solutia", the "Solutia Group" or the "Company"), is a global manufacturer and marketer of a variety of high-performance chemical-based materials. Solutia is a world leader in performance films for laminated safety glass and after-market applications; specialty products such as water treatment chemicals, heat transfer fluids and aviation hydraulic fluids; and an integrated family of nylon products including high-performance polymers and fibers. Prior to September 1, 1997, Solutia was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the former Monsanto Company (now known as Pharmacia Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pfizer, Inc.). On September 1, 1997, Pharmacia distributed all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Solutia as a dividend to Pharmacia stockholders (the "spinoff"). As a result of the spinoff, on September 1, 1997 Solutia became an independent publicly held company and its operations ceased to be owned by Pharmacia. A net deficiency of assets of $113 million resulted from the spinoff. Proceedings Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code On December 17, 2003 Solutia Inc. and its 14 U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The cases were consolidated for the purpose of joint administration and were assigned case number 03-17949 (PCB). Solutia's subsidiaries outside the United States were not included in the Chapter 11 filing. The filing was made to restructure Solutia's balance sheet by reducing indebtedness to appropriate levels, to streamline operations and reduce costs, in order to allow Solutia to emerge from Chapter 11 as a viable going concern, and to obtain relief from the negative financial impact of liabilities for litigation, environmental remediation and certain postretirement benefits and liabilities under operating contracts, all of which were assumed at the time of the spinoff of Solutia from Pharmacia (collectively, "legacy liabilities"). These factors, combined with the weakened state of the chemical manufacturing sector, general economic conditions and continuing high, volatile energy and crude oil costs have been an obstacle to Solutia's financial stability and success. While Solutia believes it will be able to significantly reduce the legacy liabilities through the bankruptcy process, there can be no certainty that it will be successful in doing so. Under Chapter 11, Solutia is operating its businesses as a debtor-in-possession ("DIP") under court protection from creditors and claimants. Since the Chapter 11 filing, all orders sufficient to enable Solutia to conduct normal business activities, including the approval of Solutia's DIP financing, have been entered by the bankruptcy court. While Solutia is subject to Chapter 11, all transactions not in the ordinary course of business require the prior approval of the bankruptcy court. 10 As a consequence of the Chapter 11 filing, pending litigation against Solutia is generally stayed, and no party may take any action to collect its pre-petition claims except pursuant to order of the bankruptcy court. November 30, 2004 was the last date by which holders of pre-filing date claims against the Debtors could file such claims. Any holder of a claim that was required to file such claim by November 30, 2004, and did not do so, may be barred from asserting such claim against the Debtors and, accordingly, may not be able to participate in any distribution with respect to such claim. Differences between claim amounts identified by the Debtors and claims filed by claimants will be investigated and resolved in connection with the Debtors' claims resolution process, and only holders of claims that are ultimately allowed for purposes of the Chapter 11 case will be entitled to distributions. Solutia has not yet completed its analysis of all the proofs of claim. Because the settlement terms of allowed claims are subject to a confirmed plan of reorganization, the ultimate distribution with respect to allowed claims is not presently ascertainable. In order to exit Chapter 11 successfully, Solutia must propose and obtain confirmation by the bankruptcy court of a plan of reorganization that satisfies the requirements of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As provided by the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, Solutia had the exclusive right to propose a plan of reorganization for 120 days following the Chapter 11 filing date. The bankruptcy court has subsequently approved several extensions of the exclusivity period, the most recent of which is set to expire on July 11, 2005. No assurance can be given that any future extension requests will be granted by the bankruptcy court. Moreover, although Solutia expects to file a plan of reorganization that provides for Solutia's emergence from bankruptcy as a going concern, there can be no assurance that a plan of reorganization will be confirmed by the bankruptcy court or that any such plan will be implemented successfully. Solutia believes that its plan of reorganization will result in cancellation of its existing shares of common stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase its common stock, and that it is unlikely that holders of Solutia's common stock, including options and warrants to purchase Solutia's common stock, will receive any consideration for that stock or those options and warrants in such a plan of reorganization. Solutia is unable to estimate what recovery such a plan of reorganization will provide to holders of Solutia's outstanding debt securities. While Solutia filed for Chapter 11 in part to gain relief from the legacy liabilities it was required to assume when it was spun off from Pharmacia, the extent to which such relief will be achieved is uncertain at this time. It is also possible that Solutia will agree to retain a portion of the legacy liabilities as part of its plan of reorganization. Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements of the Solutia Group include the accounts of Solutia Inc. and its majority-owned U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries. The non-U.S. subsidiaries did not commence Chapter 11 cases. The consolidated financial statements of the Solutia Chapter 11 Debtors include the accounts of Solutia Inc. and its majority-owned U.S. subsidiaries, with investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries accounted for on the cost basis. In each case, all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Companies in which Solutia has a significant interest but not a controlling interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and included in investments in subsidiaries and affiliates in the statement of consolidated financial position. Solutia's proportionate share of these companies' net earnings or losses is reflected in equity earnings (loss) from affiliates in the consolidated statement of operations. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, variable interest entities in which Solutia is the primary beneficiary are consolidated within the consolidated financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been 11 condensed or omitted for purposes of this Operating Report. The consolidated statement of operations for any interim period is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a quarter, full year, or any future interim period. Liquidity At April 30, 2005, total liquidity for the Solutia Group was approximately $200 million, consisting of $67 million of cash and DIP facility availability of $133 million. At April 30, 2005, total liquidity for the Solutia Chapter 11 Debtors was approximately $142 million, consisting of $9 million of cash and DIP facility availability of $133 million. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The significant accounting policies are consistent with those listed in the Company's 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2005. 3. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - STATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED CASH FLOWS Restructuring Expenses and Other Unusual Items Restructuring expenses and other unusual items included in the consolidated statement of operations and the statement of consolidated cash flows consisted of a one-time, non-operational gain of $6 million incurred by one of Solutia's equity affiliates. 12 SOLUTIA INC., ET.
