ITEM 9. Regulation FD Disclosure

     On July 21, 2003, EaglePicher Incorporated, our wholly owned subsidiary, commenced a private offering of $220 million principal amount of new senior subordinated notes due 2013. A press release describing the terms and conditions of this note offering, is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report.

     Certain matters regarding EaglePicher Incorporated and its subsidiaries that have not been previously disclosed are disclosed in the preliminary offering memorandum for the senior notes. These disclosures are attached as exhibits to this Report and are being furnished to comply with Regulation FD. The information disclosed in this Report is not considered “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is not subject to the liabilities of that section. With respect to the exhibits to this Report that set forth sections of the offering memorandum, please note that references to “we,” “our,” “us,” “our,” and “company” refer to EaglePicher Incorporated, and “parent” refers to EaglePicher Holdings, Inc., unless the context requires otherwise.

     This Report includes statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of us and our affiliates. These statements may relate to, but are not limited to, information and assumptions about capital and other expenditures, dividends, financing plans, capital structure, cash flow, pending legal and regulatory proceedings and claims, including environmental matters, future economic performance, operating income, cost savings, management’s plans, goals and objectives for future operations and growth. These forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “should” or similar expressions. It should be understood that these forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of our senior management, not guarantees of future performance. They are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements.

     Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Report.

     All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Report and any other cautionary statements that may accompany such forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this document or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, unless the securities laws require us to do so.
