Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Consolidated Financial Statements:

Basis of Presentation

These interim statements and related management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and their related notes and management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations, liquidity and capital resources included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2013 Form 10-K”). These interim statements are unaudited. The year-end balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q filing was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. We have historically operated and continue to operate on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to the last day of the quarter. For ease of presentation, March 31 and December 31 are used consistently throughout this Form 10-Q and these interim financial statements and related notes to represent the period-end dates. For the 2014 and 2013 quarters, the actual closing dates were March 28 and March 29, respectively. The unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. When used herein, the terms “IFF,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance clarifying the accounting for the release of cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. This update clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose. In such situations, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 2. Net Income Per Share:

Net income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding. A reconciliation of the shares used in the computation of basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(SHARES IN THOUSANDS)	2014	2013
Basic	81,053	81,291
Assumed dilution under stock plans	679	733
Diluted	81,732	82,024

There were no stock options and stock settled appreciation rights (“SSARs”) excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company has issued shares of purchased restricted common stock (“PRS”) which contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends while these shares are outstanding and thus are considered participating securities which are required to be included in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company did not present the two-class method since the difference between basic and diluted net income per share for both unrestricted common shareholders and PRS shareholders was less than $0.01 per share for each period presented and the number of PRS outstanding as of March 31, 2014 and 2013 was immaterial (approximately 0.7% of the total number of common shares outstanding as of

5

March 31, 2014 and 2013). Net income allocated to such PRS was $0.7 million and $0.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Note 3. Restructuring and Other Charges, Net:

Fragrance Ingredients Rationalization

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company announced that it intends to close its fragrance ingredients manufacturing facility in Augusta, Georgia by July 2014 and plans to consolidate production into other Company facilities. In connection with this closure, the Company expects to incur charges of $16 - $21 million, consisting primarily of $10 - $12 million in accelerated depreciation of fixed assets, $3 - $4 million in personnel-related costs and $3 - $5 million in plant shutdown and other related costs. The Company recorded total charges of $7.4 million during 2013, consisting of $2.2 million of pre-tax charges related to severance included in Restructuring and other charges, net and $5.2 million of non-cash charges related to accelerated depreciation included in Cost of goods sold. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an additional $0.1 million of severance costs included in Restructuring and other charges, net and $2.3 million of non-cash charges related to accelerated depreciation included in Cost of goods sold. The remainder of the estimated costs is expected to be recognized over the following quarter. The Company expects that 43 positions will be eliminated as a result of these decisions. The Company estimates that approximately $6 - $9 million of the costs will result in future cash expenditures.

Changes in employee-related restructuring liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2014 related to the Fragrance Ingredients Rationalization were as follows:

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)	Employee-Related Costs			Accelerated Depreciation			Total
December 31, 2013	$	2,116		$	—		$	2,116
Additional charges, net	122			2,250			2,372
Non-cash charges	—			(2,250		)	(2,250		)
Payments and other costs	(122		)	—			(122		)
March 31, 2014	$	2,116		$	—		$	2,116

Note 4. Other Intangible Assets, Net:

Other intangible assets, net consist of the following amounts:

	March 31,			December 31,
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)	2014			2013
Gross carrying value (1)	$	219,004		$	165,406
Accumulated amortization	(135,739		)	(134,791		)
Total	$	83,265		$	30,615

⁽¹⁾  Includes patents, trademarks, technological know-how and other intellectual property, valued at acquisition.

On January 15, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity of Aromor Flavors and Fragrances Ltd. ("Aromor"), a privately held manufacturer and marketer of complex specialty ingredients that are used in fragrances and flavors. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method. The Company paid $102.5 million (including $0.1 million of cash acquired) for this acquisition, which was funded out of existing cash resources. Aromor is part of the IFF Fragrances Ingredients business and was acquired in order to strengthen this business and provide cost-effective quality materials for use in our formula creations. The purchase price exceeded the carrying value of existing net assets by approximately $56 million. The excess was allocated principally to identifiable intangible assets (approximately $53 million), goodwill (approximately $10 million) and approximately $9 million to deferred tax liabilities. Separately identifiable intangible assets are principally related to technological know-how. Additionally, the consideration included $15 million related to post-combination contingent consideration, held in escrow. This amount has been escrowed and will be expensed by the Company as it is earned by the selling shareholders over three years based upon the continued participation in the acquired business of certain key personnel. The purchase price allocation is preliminary pending final valuations and is expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2014, with the assignment of final values to various intangible assets. No pro forma financial information for 2013 is presented as the impact of the acquisition is immaterial.

6

Amortization expense was $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Annual amortization is expected to be $5.4 million for the year 2014, $5.4 million for the years 2015 through 2017, $5.3 million for the year 2018 and $4.6 million for the year 2019. The above amounts are still subject to final purchase price allocations.

Note 5. Borrowings:

Debt consists of the following:

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)	Rate		Maturities	March 31, 2014			December 31, 2013
Senior notes - 2007	6.40	%	2017-27	$	500,000		$	500,000

Less: Current portion of long-term debt				(2,291		)	(149		)
				$	931,635		$	932,665

On April 4, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries amended and restated the Company’s existing credit agreement with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, to, among other things (i) modify the available tranches of the revolving loan facility provided under the credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”), (ii) reduce the applicable margin on the interest rate on advances under the Credit Facility to a range of 0.0% to 0.750% for base rate advances and 0.750% to 1.750% for Eurocurrency rate advances, depending on the Company’s public debt rating and (iii) extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility until April 4, 2019. Tranche A of the Credit Facility is available to borrowers in U.S. dollars, euros, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and British sterling in an aggregate amount up to an equivalent of approximately $456 million, with a sublimit of $25 million for swing line borrowings. Tranche B of the Credit Facility is available to borrowers in euros, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and British sterling in an aggregate amount up to an equivalent of approximately $494 million.

Note 6. Income Taxes:

At March 31, 2014, we had $21.5 million of unrecognized tax benefits recorded in Other liabilities. If these unrecognized tax benefits were recognized, the effective tax rate would be affected.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had accrued interest and penalties of $2.3 million classified in Other liabilities.

The Company regularly repatriates a portion of current year earnings from select non–U.S. subsidiaries. No provision is made for additional taxes on undistributed earnings of subsidiary companies that are intended and planned to be indefinitely invested in such subsidiaries. We intend to, and have plans to, reinvest these earnings indefinitely in our foreign subsidiaries to fund local operations and/or capital projects.

The Company has ongoing income tax audits and legal proceedings which are at various stages of administrative or judicial review, of which the most significant items are discussed below. In addition, the Company has other ongoing tax audits and legal proceedings that relate to indirect taxes, such as value-added taxes, capital tax, sales and use taxes and property taxes, which are discussed in Note 12.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had one outstanding income tax case in Spain relating to fisca1 year 2002. The Company has fully reserved the assessment originally asserted by the Spanish tax authority. The Company is awaiting a decision on its appeal, and in order to proceed with the appeal, the Company was required to post a bank guaranty, which as of March 31, 2014, was in the amount of Euro 1.8 million ($2.5 million).

In addition to the above, the Company has also been a party to dividend withholding tax controversies in Spain. At March 31, 2014, the Company had Euro 4.5 million ($6.2 million) reflected in income taxes payable in connection with three of these cases. The fourth and final remaining case is under appeal and has not yet been heard by the Spanish Supreme Court, with an aggregate value of Euro 3.2 million ($4.5 million), including estimated interest, which is fully reserved as of March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had posted bank guarantees of Euro 7.7 million ($10.7 million) in order to proceed with the appeal.

7

In addition to the Spanish tax controversy, the Company has several other tax audits in process and has open tax years with various taxing jurisdictions that range primarily from 2004 to 2013. Based on currently available information, we do not believe the ultimate outcome of any of these tax audits and other tax positions related to open tax years, when finalized, will have a material impact on our financial position.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s aggregate provisions for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties, was $23.8 million, which includes $2.2 million associated with the tax positions taken by our Spanish subsidiaries for the 2002 fiscal year, $3.8 million associated with our Spanish dividend withholding tax controversies and the remainder associated with various other tax positions asserted in foreign jurisdictions, none of which is individually material.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 25.3% compared with 28.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The effective tax rate for the 2013 first quarter includes a $6.2 million after-tax charge associated with the 2002-2003 tax ruling during the first quarter of 2013, which was partially offset by a $2.7 million benefit associated with U.S. tax legislation enacted in the first quarter of 2013 (including the R&D tax credit). The quarter-over-quarter decrease is principally driven by the absence of the $6.2 million after-tax charge partially offset by the expiration of the R&D tax credit in December 2013.

Note 7. Stock Compensation Plans:

The Company has various plans under which its officers, senior management, other key employees and directors may be granted equity-based awards. Equity awards outstanding under the plans include PRS, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock options, SSARs and Long-Term Incentive Plan awards; liability-based awards outstanding under the plans are cash-settled RSUs.

Stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefits were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)	2014			2013
Equity-based awards	$	4,695		$	4,523
Liability-based awards	1,245			1,451
Total stock-based compensation expense	5,940			5,974
Less: tax benefit	(1,726		)	(1,907		)
Total stock-based compensation expense, after tax	$	4,214		$	4,067

Note 8. Segment Information:

The Company is organized into two operating segments: Flavors and Fragrances. These segments align with the internal structure of the Company used to manage these businesses. Performance of these operating segments is evaluated based on segment profit which is defined as operating profit before Restructuring and certain non-recurring items, Interest expense, Other expense, net and Taxes on income.

The Global expenses caption below represents corporate and headquarters-related expenses which include legal, finance, human resources, certain incentive compensation expenses and other R&D and administrative expenses that are not allocated to individual operating segments.

Note 10. Financial Instruments:

Fair Value

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

• Level 1–Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

• Level 2–Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

10

• Level 3–Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

This hierarchy requires us to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. We determine the fair value of structured liabilities (where performance is linked to structured interest rates, inflation or currency risks) using the LIBOR swap curve and forward interest and exchange rates at period end. Such instruments are classified as Level 2 based on the observability of significant inputs to the model. We do not have any instruments classified as Level 1 or Level 3, other than those included in pension asset trusts as discussed in Note 13 of our 2013 Form 10-K.

These valuations take into consideration our credit risk and our counterparties’ credit risk. The estimated change in the fair value of these instruments due to such changes in our own credit risk (or instrument-specific credit risk) was immaterial as of March 31, 2014.

The amounts recorded in the balance sheet (carrying amount) and the estimated fair values of financial instruments at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2014				December 31, 2013
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
Cash and cash equivalents (1)	$	268,584	$	268,584	$	405,505	$	405,505
Credit facilities and bank overdrafts (2)	2,557		2,557		984		984
Long-term debt: (3)
Senior notes - 2007	500,000		593,909		500,000		590,024
Senior notes - 2006	125,000		137,469		125,000		139,146
Senior notes - 2013	299,760		286,922		299,736		278,770

(1) The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

(2) The carrying amount of our credit facilities and bank overdrafts approximates fair value as the interest rate is reset frequently based on current market rates as well as the short maturity of those instruments.

(3) The fair value of our long-term debt was calculated using discounted cash flows applying current interest rates and current credit spreads based on our own credit risk.

Derivatives

We periodically enter into foreign currency forward contracts with the objective of reducing exposure to cash flow volatility associated with our intercompany loans, foreign currency receivables and payables, and anticipated purchases of certain raw materials used in operations. These contracts generally involve the exchange of one currency for a second currency at a future date, have maturities not exceeding twelve months and are with counterparties which are major international financial institutions.

In 2003, we executed a 10-year Yen - U.S. dollar currency swap related to the monthly sale and purchase of products between the U.S. and Japan which had been designated as a cash flow hedge. This swap matured in January 2013.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, we entered into a forward currency contract which qualified as a net investment hedge, in order to mitigate a portion of our net European investments from foreign currency risk. The effective portions of net investment hedges are recorded in Other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as a component of Foreign currency translation adjustments in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Realized gains (losses) are deferred in AOCI where they will remain until the net investments in our European subsidiaries are divested. Three of these forward currency contracts matured during the three months ended March 31, 2014. The outstanding forward currency contracts have remaining maturities of approximately one year.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, we entered into several forward currency contracts which qualified as cash flow hedges. The objective of these hedges is to protect against the currency risk associated with forecasted U.S. dollar (USD) denominated raw material purchases made by Euro (EUR) functional currency entities which result from changes in the EUR/USD exchange rate. The effective portions of cash flow hedges are recorded in

11

OCI as a component of Losses on derivatives qualifying as hedges in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Realized gains/(losses) in AOCI related to cash flow hedges of raw material purchases are recognized as a component of Cost of goods sold in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the same period as the related costs are recognized.

During Q1 2013, we entered into three interest rate swaps to hedge the anticipated issuance of fixed-rate debt, which are designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portions of cash flow hedges are recorded in OCI as a component of Losses on derivatives qualifying as hedges in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. During the second quarter of 2013, we terminated these swaps and incurred a loss of $2.7 million, which we will amortize as Interest expense over the life of the Senior Notes - 2013 (discussed in Note 8 of our 2013 Form 10-K).

During Q3 2013, we entered into multiple interest rate swap agreements that effectively converted the fixed rate on a portion of our long-term borrowings to a variable short-term rate based on the LIBOR plus an interest markup. These swaps are designated as fair value hedges. Amounts recognized in Interest expense were immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The following table shows the notional amount of the Company’s derivative instruments outstanding as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

No ineffectiveness was experienced in the above noted cash flow hedges during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The ineffective portion of the net investment hedges was not material during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company expects that approximately $2.2 million (net of tax) of derivative losses included in AOCI at March 31, 2014, based on current market rates, will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. The majority of this amount will vary due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies:

Guarantees and Letters of Credit

The Company has various bank guarantees and letters of credit which are available for use regarding governmental requirements associated with pending litigation in various jurisdictions and to support its ongoing business operations.

At March 31, 2014, we had total bank guarantees and standby letters of credit of approximately $45.9 million with various financial institutions. Of this amount, Euro 9.5 million ($13.2 million) in bank guarantees are related to governmental requirements on income tax disputes in Spain, as discussed in further detail in Note 9 of our 2013 Form 10-K. Also included in the above aggregate amount is a total of $22.6 million in bank guarantees which the Company has posted for certain assessments in Brazil for other diverse income tax and indirect tax disputes related to fiscal years 1998-2011. There were no material amounts utilized under the standby letters of credit as of March 31, 2014.

In order to challenge the assessments in these cases in Brazil, the Company has been required to, and has separately pledged assets, principally property, plant and equipment, to cover assessments in the amount of approximately $20 million as of March 31, 2014.

Lines of Credit

The Company has various lines of credit which are available to support its ongoing business operations. At March 31, 2014, we had available lines of credit (in addition to the Credit Facility discussed in Note 5) of approximately $84.9 million with various financial institutions. There were no significant amounts drawn down pursuant to these lines of credit as of March 31, 2014.

15

Litigation

The Company assesses contingencies related to litigation and/or other matters to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss. A loss contingency is accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur, assessing contingencies is highly sensitive and requires judgments about future events. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company reviews contingencies related to litigation to determine the adequacy of accruals. The amount of ultimate loss may differ from these estimates and further events may require the Company to increase or decrease the amounts it has accrued on any matter.

Periodically, we assess our insurance coverage for all known claims, where applicable, taking into account aggregate coverage by occurrence, limits of coverage, self-insured retentions and deductibles, historical claims experience and claims experience with our insurance carriers. The liabilities are recorded at management’s best estimate of the probable outcome of the lawsuits and claims, taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the individual matters as well as past experience on similar matters. At each balance sheet date, the key issues that management assesses are whether it is probable that a loss as to asserted or unasserted claims has been incurred and if so, whether the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We record the expected liability with respect to claims in Other liabilities and expected recoveries from our insurance carriers in Other assets. We recognize a receivable when we believe that realization of the insurance receivable is probable under the terms of the insurance policies and our payment experience to date.

Environmental

Over the past 20 years, various federal and state authorities and private parties have claimed that we are a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) as a generator of waste materials for alleged pollution at a number of waste sites operated by third parties located principally in New Jersey and have sought to recover costs incurred and to be incurred to clean up the sites.

We have been identified as a PRP at eight facilities operated by third parties at which investigation and/or remediation activities may be ongoing. We analyze our potential liability on at least a quarterly basis. We accrue for environmental liabilities when they are probable and estimable. We estimate our share of the total future cost for these sites to be less than $5 million.

While joint and several liability is authorized under federal and state environmental laws, we believe the amounts we have paid and anticipate paying in the future for clean-up costs and damages at all sites are not material and will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. This assessment is based upon, among other things, the involvement of other PRPs at most of the sites, the status of the proceedings, including various settlement agreements and consent decrees, and the extended time period over which payments will likely be made. There can be no assurance, however, that future events will not require us to materially increase the amounts we anticipate paying for clean-up costs and damages at these sites, and that such increased amounts will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Contingencies

The Company has contingencies involving third parties (such as labor, contract, technology or product-related claims or litigation) as well as government-related items in various jurisdictions in which we operate pertaining to such items as value-added taxes, other indirect taxes, customs and duties and sales and use taxes. It is possible that cash flows or results of operations, in any period, could be materially affected by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies.

The most significant government-related contingencies exist in Brazil. With regard to the Brazilian matters, we believe we have valid defenses for the underlying positions under dispute; however, in order to pursue these defenses, we are required to, and have provided, bank guarantees and pledged assets in the aggregate amount of $42.6 million. The Brazilian matters take an extended period of time to proceed through the judicial process and there are a limited number of rulings to date.

In March 2012, ZoomEssence, Inc. filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court of New Jersey alleging trade secret misappropriation, breach of contract and unjust enrichment in connection with certain spray dry technology disclosed to the Company. In connection with the claims, ZoomEssence is seeking an injunction and monetary damages. ZoomEssence initially sought a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, but the Court denied these applications in an order entered on September 27, 2013, finding that ZoomEssence had not demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits of its claims. The Court subsequently referred the matter to mediation, however the private mediation session did not result in a resolution of the dispute. The case is currently proceeding through general discovery with a trial on the merits anticipated in early 2015. The Company denies the allegations and will vigorously defend its position in Court. At

16

this preliminary stage of the litigation, based on the information currently available to the Company, management does not believe that this matter represents a material loss contingency.

Based on the information available as of March 31, 2014, we estimate a range of reasonably possible loss related to the matters above, collectively, is $3-$20 million.

Separately, the Spanish tax authorities are alleging claims for a capital tax in a case arising from similar allegations as the income tax cases (discussed in further detail in Note 9 of our 2013 Form 10-K). In connection with the 2002 income tax assessment ruling the Appellate Court rejected one of the two bases upon which we based our capital tax position. However, we believe that we still have a strong basis for our capital tax position and intend to continue to defend these claims. If there is an unfavorable ruling in this case, we estimate a reasonably possible loss of approximately $13 million. On January 22, 2014, we filed an appeal and in order to avoid future interest costs in the event our appeal is unsuccessful, we paid $11.2 million (representing the principal amount) during the first quarter of 2014.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We create, manufacture and supply flavors and fragrances for the food, beverage, personal care and household-products industries either in the form of compounds or individual ingredients. Our flavors and fragrance compounds combine a large number of ingredients that are blended, mixed or reacted together to produce proprietary formulas created by our perfumers and flavorists.

Flavors are the key building blocks that impart taste in processed food and beverage products and, as such, play a significant role in determining consumer preference of the end products in which they are used. While we are a global leader, our flavors business is more regional in nature, with different formulas that reflect local tastes and ingredients. As a leading creator of flavors, we help our customers deliver on the promise of delicious and healthy foods and drinks that appeal to consumers. Our flavors compounds are ultimately used by our customers in four end-use categories: (1) Savory, (2) Beverages, (3) Sweet, pharmaceutical and oral care (“Sweet”), and (4) Dairy.

Our fragrances are a key component in the world’s finest perfumes and best-known consumer brands, including beauty care, fabric care, personal wash and home care products. During the first quarter of 2014, we announced that we realigned our creative and commercial teams within our Fragrance Compounds activities to newly-defined broad market categories, (1) Fine Fragrances and (2) Consumer Fragrances. Consumer Fragrances consists of five end-use categories: Fabric Care, Home Care, Personal Wash, Hair Care and Toiletries. In addition, our Fragrance Ingredients are used internally and sold to third parties, including customers and competitors, for use in preparation of compounds. Previously, our Fragrance Compounds were aligned into two broad categories (1) Fine Fragrance and Beauty Care and (2) Functional Fragrances.

The flavors and fragrances market is part of a larger market which supplies a variety of ingredients and components that consumer products companies utilize in their products. The broader market includes large multinational companies or smaller regional and local participants which supply products such as seasonings, texturizers, spices, enzymes, certain food-related commodities, fortified products and cosmetic ingredients. The flavors and fragrances market is estimated to be approximately $18 billion; however the exact size of the global market is not available due to fragmentation of data. We, together with the other top three companies, are estimated to comprise approximately two-thirds of the total estimated sales in the global flavors and fragrances sub-segment of the broader market.

In the second quarter of 2013, we announced our intention to close our fragrance ingredients manufacturing facility in Augusta, Georgia, thereby supporting our objective to ensure operations are cost efficient and competitive. We expect to close the facility by July 2014 and to consolidate production into other facilities, as further discussed in Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net sales growth during the first quarter of 2014 was 6% on a reported basis. Excluding the effects of currency, local currency (LC) sales grew 7% (including a 1% benefit associated with the acquisition of Aromor). The LC growth reflects good new win performance (net of losses) in both Flavors and Fragrance Compounds as well as strong sales of specialty ingredients within Fragrance Ingredients, benefiting from Aromor. We expect that growth rates for the second quarter will be in line with our long-term strategic targets, driven by new win performance, innovation and emerging market leverage.

Exchange rate fluctuations had a 100 basis points (bps) unfavorable impact on net sales for the first quarter, as modest strengthening of the Euro versus the dollar was more than offset by double-digit currency declines versus the dollar in certain markets versus the prior year quarter. The effect of exchange rates can vary by business and region, depending upon the mix of sales by destination country as well as the relative percentage of local sales priced in U.S. dollars versus local currencies.

Gross margins improved versus the first quarter of 2013. The improvement reflects the favorable net impact of input costs to pricing, mix enhancements and cost reduction initiatives when compared to the first quarter of 2013. While the overall raw material cost environment is modestly favorable, the overall cost base remains quite elevated. In addition, there are certain key supplies where prices are still near all-time highs. While there is overall economic uncertainty and market volatility of our crop-related raw materials, we continue to believe cost pressures will develop in the second half of the year. As a result, we continue to seek improvements in our margins through operational performance and mix enhancement. While we continue to target year-over-year expansion in our gross margins, we expect that the rate of improvement during 2014 versus 2013 will be substantially less given the strong improvement realized during 2013. Included in the first quarter of 2014 is $2.6 million of costs associated with restructuring and operational improvement initiatives. During the fourth quarter of 2013, we completed the testing and start-up process at our Flavors compounding facility in China and began commercial production, which has resulted in higher depreciation expense and other operating costs associated with the commercial start-up.

18

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW

Reported sales in the first quarter of 2014 increased approximately 6%. In LC terms, sales increased 7% (including a 1% benefit associated with the acquisition of Aromor) reflecting the strength of our broad and diverse portfolio of end-use product categories and geographies. The overall increase was driven by new win performance in both Flavors and Fragrance Compounds as well as strong sales of specialty ingredients within Fragrance Ingredients, which includes the benefit of the Aromor acquisition. Flavors realized LC growth of 5% for the first quarter of 2014. Our Fragrance business achieved LC growth of 8%, compared with LC sales in the first quarter of 2013. Fragrances performance reflects new win performance in our Fragrance Compounds end-use categories, led by sales in our Fine Fragrance, Fabric Care and Hair Care categories. Overall, our first quarter 2014 results continued to be driven by our strong emerging market presence that represented 49% of sales and experienced 7% LC growth. From a geographic perspective, the Latin America (LA), Europe, Africa and Middle East (EAME), Greater Asia (GA) and North America (NOAM) regions all delivered LC growth in 2014, led by GA, with 11% LC growth.

Operating profit increased $18.5 million to $156.1 million (20.3% of sales) in the 2014first quarter compared to $137.6 million (18.9% of sales) in the comparable 2013 period. The three months ended March 31, 2014 included restructuring and operational improvement initiative costs of $2.6 million. Excluding these charges, adjusted operating profit was $158.8 million (20.6% of sales) for the first quarter of 2014. The quarter-over-quarter improvement also reflects gross margin expansion that collectively more than offset the effects of higher R&D, selling and administrative costs (including higher incentive compensation expense). The results of Aromor were not significant to the consolidated financial performance of the Company for the first quarter of 2014.

Net income increased by $16.0 million quarter-over-quarter to $106.7 million for the first quarter of 2014 principally driven by improved operating performance.

We continue to execute against our strategic priorities of leveraging our geographic reach, strengthening our innovation platform and maximizing our portfolio during the first quarter of 2014. By maintaining cost discipline and realizing productivity gains across many parts of the business, we believe that we can continue to fund investments in resources and capabilities in emerging markets, R&D and key technologies. In 2014, we believe that capital spending will approach 5% of sales as we continue to prioritize investments in emerging markets and Flavors.

Cash flows from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $35.0 million or 4.5% of sales, compared to cash inflow from operations of $18.7 million or 2.6% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in cash flow from operations in 2014 primarily reflects the absence of a $30.0 million pension contribution payment which was made in the first quarter of 2013, which was offset by higher incentive compensation payments in the 2014 period as compared to 2013.

Cost of goods sold includes the cost of materials and manufacturing expenses. R&D expenses relate to the development of new and improved products, technical product support and compliance with governmental regulations. S&A expenses include expenses necessary to support our commercial activities and administrative expenses supporting our overall operating activities.

FIRST QUARTER 2014 IN COMPARISON TO FIRST QUARTER 2013

Sales

Sales for the first quarter of 2014 totaled $770.2 million, an increase of 6% from the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, LC sales increased 7% (including a 1% benefit associated with the acquisition of Aromor), as a result of new wins in both Flavors and Fragrance Compounds and strong Fragrance Ingredients LC sales. Overall LC growth was driven by 7% growth in emerging markets (prior to the impact of Aromor).

Flavors Business Unit

Flavors reported sales growth increased 3% and LC sales growth increased 5% during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the 2013 period. The overall increase was principally driven by new wins. On an end-use product category basis, LC growth

20

was led by double-digit growth in Beverage and mid single-digit gains in Savory and Dairy. The Flavors business delivered LC growth in LA, GA and EAME, led by LA, while sales declined in NOAM. Sales in LA were driven by high double-digit gains in Beverage. Sales in GA were driven by mid to high single-digit gains in Savory and Beverage. Sales in EAME were driven by mid single-digit gains in Savory and Beverage. The declines in NOAM were primarily driven by overall market weakness, resulting in lower volumes on existing business across all categories, with a particular impact in the Sweet category.

Fragrances Business Unit

The Fragrances business experienced a 9% increase in reported sales and an 8% increase in LC sales for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013 (including a 1% benefit associated with the acquisition of Aromor). The overall increase was driven by new wins in our Fragrance Compounds categories as well as strong sales of specialty ingredients within Fragrance Ingredients, which benefited from the acquisition of Aromor during the quarter. Our Fragrance Compounds and Fragrance Ingredients categories saw LC sales grow 6% and 22%, respectively, over the prior year period. Fragrance Ingredients includes a 14% benefit from Aromor. Within Fragrance Compounds, sales were driven by double-digit growth in Fine Fragrances and Hair Care as well as high single-digit growth in Fabric Care.

(1) Local currency sales growth is calculated by translating prior year sales at the exchange rates for the corresponding 2014 period.

• NOAM Flavors sales decreased 4% as a result of low single-digit gains in Beverage that were more than offset by double-digit declines in Sweet and single-digit declines in Savory and Dairy. NOAM Fragrance sales increased 8% in the first quarter of 2014, principally due to high double-digit gains in Fine Fragrances and Home Care, which were only partially offset by declines in Fabric Care and Fragrance Ingredients.

• EAME Flavors LC sales growth of 4% was led by high single-digit growth in Beverage and Dairy and mid single-digit growth in Savory. EAME Fragrance LC sales increased 12% overall, driven mainly by high double-digit growth in Fine Fragrances and Fragrance Ingredients, which were partially offset by declines in the Home Care and Personal Wash categories.

• LA Flavors LC sales were up 23% as new wins drove high double-digit gains in Beverages and high single-digit gains in Savory, which were partially offset by mid single-digit declines in Sweet. LA Fragrances LC sales decreased 5% overall, principally related to double-digit gains within the Personal Wash and Hair Care categories, which were more than offset by double-digit declines in Fine Fragrances and declines within Home Care and Fragrance Ingredients.

• GA Flavors had 8% LC sales growth from high single-digit growth in all categories, driven by new win performance. GA Fragrances LC sales growth of 16% was driven by double-digit growth in Fabric Care and Fragrance Ingredients as well as high single-digit growth in the Hair Care and Toiletries categories.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, decreased 150 bps to 55.7% in the first quarter of 2014 compared to 57.2% in the first quarter of 2013. The improvement versus last year was mainly driven by the favorable net impact of input costs to pricing, mix enhancements and cost reduction initiatives on a year-over-year basis.

21

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses

Overall R&D expenses, as a percentage of sales, remained relatively consistent with prior year at 8.0% in the first quarter of 2014 versus 8.1% in the first quarter of 2013.

Selling and Administrative (S&A) Expenses

S&A expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased 30 bps to 16.1% in the first quarter of 2014 versus 15.8% in the first quarter of 2013. The increase in S&A as a percentage of sales principally reflects the inclusion of Aromor-related expenses and higher incentive compensation expense.

Operating Results by Business Unit

We evaluate the performance of business units based on segment profit which is defined as operating profit before Restructuring and certain non-recurring items, net, Interest expense, Other expense, net and Taxes on income. See Note 8 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the reconciliation to Income before taxes.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)	2014			2013
Segment profit:
Flavors	$	88,063		$	83,039
Fragrances	87,166			68,354

Profit margin
Flavors	24.0		%	23.3		%
Fragrances	21.6		%	18.4		%
Consolidated	20.3		%	18.9		%

Flavors Segment Profit

Flavors segment profit totaled $88.1 million in the first quarter of 2014, or 24.0% as a percentage of sales, compared to $83.0 million, or 23.3% as a percentage of sales, in the comparable 2013 period. The improvement in segment profit and profit margin was driven primarily by volume growth from new wins, gross margin improvement and disciplined cost control.

Fragrances Segment Profit

Fragrances segment profit totaled $87.2 million in the first quarter of 2014, or 21.6% as a percentage of sales, compared to $68.4 million, or 18.4% as a percentage of sales, in the comparable 2013 period. The improvement in segment profit and profit margin was due to strong local currency sales growth, gross margin expansion and productivity gains.

Global Expenses

Global expenses represent corporate and headquarters-related expenses which include legal, finance, human resources and R&D and other administrative expenses that are not allocated to an individual business unit. In the first quarter of 2014, Global expenses were $16.4 million compared to $12.6 million during the first quarter of 2013. The increase primarily reflects higher incentive compensation expense.

Restructuring and Other Charges, Net

Restructuring and other charges, net in 2014 consist of separation costs for employees, including severance, outplacement and other benefit costs, relating to the Fragrance Ingredients Rationalization that started in the second quarter of 2013 related to the closing of the fragrance ingredients manufacturing facility in Augusta, Georgia. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company recorded $0.1 million of severance costs included in Restructuring and other charges, net and $2.3 million of non-cash charges related to accelerated depreciation included in Cost of goods sold. We expect that 43 positions will be eliminated as a result of these decisions. We estimate that approximately $6-$9 million of the costs will result in future cash expenditures.

22

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $0.5 million to $11.7 million in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. Average cost of debt was 5.0% for the 2014 three month period compared to 4.4% in the 2013 three month period.

Other Expense (Income), Net

Other expense (income), net decreased by approximately $2.5 million to $1.4 million of expense in the first quarter of 2014 versus $1.1 million of income in the comparable 2013 period. The decrease over the prior year period is driven largely by changes in realized and unrealized foreign exchange losses/gains on working capital.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 25.3% compared with 28.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Excluding the impact of taxes related to restructuring and other charges in the current quarter, and the Spanish tax charge and other items impacting comparability in the prior year quarter, the first quarter 2014 adjusted effective tax rate was 25.5%, or 150 basis points higher than the first quarter 2013 adjusted effective tax rate of 24.0%. The increase in the adjusted effective tax rate was primarily driven by the absence of the U.S. R&D tax credit in the current quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

We had cash and cash equivalents of $268.6 million at March 31, 2014 compared to $405.5 million at December 31, 2013, of which $184.7 million of the balance at March 31, 2014 was held outside the United States. Cash balances held in foreign jurisdictions are, in most circumstances, available to be repatriated to the United States; however, they would be subject to United States federal income taxes, less applicable foreign tax credits. We have not provided U.S. income tax expense on accumulated earnings of our foreign subsidiaries because we have the ability and plan to reinvest the undistributed earnings indefinitely.

Effective utilization of the cash generated by our international operations is a critical component of our tax strategy. Strategic dividend repatriation from foreign subsidiaries creates U.S. taxable income, which enables us to realize deferred tax assets. The Company regularly repatriates, in the form of dividends from its non-U.S. subsidiaries, a portion of its current year earnings to fund financial obligations in the U.S.

CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Operating cash flows in the first three months of 2014 were $35.0 million compared to $18.7 million in the first three months of 2013, which included an outflow of cash of $30.0 million related to pension contributions in the first quarter of 2013.The net cash outflow associated with our core working capital increased by $8.6 million compared to the first three months of 2013. Operating cash flows versus the prior year period also reflects higher incentive compensation payments when compared to 2013.

Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) totaled $1,085.3 million at March 31, 2014, compared to $1,092.5 million at December 31, 2013. The slight decrease in working capital reflects the cash paid for the acquisition of Aromor offset by the effects of higher commercial activity on trade receivables. We selectively participate in programs offered by certain of our global customers. When participating in these programs, we accelerate the receipt of cash by selling the selected accounts receivable positions with these customers, on a non-recourse basis, at a discount to designated third party banks. The cost of participating in these programs was immaterial to our results in all periods.

CASH FLOWS USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Net investing activities during the first three months of 2014 utilized $122.4 million compared to $28.3 million in the prior year period.

The Company paid $102.4 million (net of $0.1 million of cash acquired) for the acquisition of Aromor, which was funded from existing cash resources.

Additions to property, plant and equipment were $33.8 million during the first three months of 2014 compared to $29.9 million in the first three months of 2013. The increase in additions versus last year reflects planned investments in capacity and new technologies, mainly in the emerging markets. We expect additions to property, plant and equipment to approach 4-5% of our sales in 2014.

23

CASH FLOWS USED IN FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Net financing activities in the first three months of 2014 used $49.3 million compared to $11.9 million in the first three months of 2013. The increase in cash used for financing activities principally reflects the payment of the first quarter dividend in 2014 as well as increased treasury stock purchases in 2014 as compared to 2013.

At March 31, 2014, we had $933.9 million of debt outstanding compared to $932.8 million outstanding at December 31, 2013.

We paid dividends totaling $31.7 million in the 2014 period. We declared a cash dividend per share of $0.39 in the first quarter of 2014 that was paid on April 8, 2014 to all shareholders of record as of March 27, 2014. There was no dividend payment made during the first quarter of 2013 as payment was made during the fourth quarter of 2012.

In December 2012, the Board of Directors authorized a $250 million share repurchase program, which commenced in the first quarter of 2013. Based on the total remaining amount of $178.0 million available under the repurchase program, approximately 1.9 million shares, or 2.3% of shares outstanding (based on the market price and shares outstanding as of March 31, 2014) could be repurchased under the program as of March 31, 2014. The purchases will be made from time to time on the open market or through private transactions as market and business conditions warrant. Repurchased shares will be placed into treasury stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we repurchased 226,857 shares on the open market at an aggregate cost of $20.1 million or an average of $88.70 per share. We expect total purchases during 2014 to increase over the 2013 purchases of $51 million. The ultimate level of purchases will be a function of the daily purchase limits established in the pre-approved program according to the share price at that time.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating cash flow provides the primary source of funds for capital investment needs, dividends paid to shareholders and debt repayments. We anticipate that cash flows from operations and availability under our existing credit facilities are sufficient to meet our investing and financing needs for at least the next eighteen months. We regularly assess our capital structure, including both current and long-term debt instruments, as compared to our cash generation and investment needs in order to provide ample flexibility and to optimize our leverage ratios. We believe our existing cash balances are sufficient to meet our debt service requirements.

On April 4, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries amended and restated the Company’s existing credit agreement with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, to, among other things (i) modify the available tranches of the revolving loan facility provided under the credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”), (ii) reduce the applicable margin on the interest rate on advances under the Credit Facility to a range of 0.0% to 0.750% for base rate advances and 0.750% to 1.750% for Eurocurrency rate advances, depending on the Company’s public debt rating and (iii) extend the maturity date of the Credit Facility until April 4, 2019. Tranche A of the Credit Facility is available to borrowers in U.S. dollars, euros, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and British sterling in an aggregate amount up to an equivalent of approximately $456 million, with a sublimit of $25 million for swing line borrowings. Tranche B of the Credit Facility is available to borrowers in euros, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and British sterling in an aggregate amount up to an equivalent of approximately $494 million.

Although we have appealed the lower court ruling on our Spanish capital tax case, we made payment of $11.2 million (representing the principal amount) to the Spanish government relating to the case during the first quarter of 2014, which will be refundable if we prevail on our appeal.

We expect to contribute approximately $21 million to our non-U.S. pension plans during 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we have contributed $5.3 million related to our non-U.S. pension plans and $1.0 million related to our U.S. pension plans.

We supplement short-term liquidity with access to capital markets, mainly through bank credit facilities and issuance of commercial paper. We did not issue commercial paper during the first three months of 2014 or 2013.

Under our revolving credit facility, we are required to maintain, at the end of each fiscal quarter, a ratio of net debt for borrowed money to adjusted EBITDA in respect of the previous 12-month period of not more than 3.25 to 1. Based on this ratio, at March 31, 2014 our covenant compliance provided overall borrowing capacity of $1,432 million.

As of March 31, 2014 we had no borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The amount which we are able to draw down on under the facility is limited by financial covenants as described in more detail below. Our drawdown capacity on the facility was $950.5 million at March 31, 2014.

24

At March 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants, including the net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. At March 31, 2014 our Net Debt/adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾ ratio was 1.02 to 1 as defined by the debt agreements, well below the financial covenants of existing outstanding debt. Failure to comply with the financial and other covenants under our debt agreements would constitute default and would allow the lenders to accelerate the maturity of all indebtedness under the related agreement. If such acceleration were to occur, we would not have sufficient liquidity available to repay the indebtedness. We would likely have to seek amendments under the agreements for relief from the financial covenants or repay the debt with proceeds from the issuance of new debt or equity, and/or asset sales, if necessary. We may be unable to amend the agreements or raise sufficient capital to repay such obligations in the event the maturities are accelerated.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt, which are non-GAAP measures used for these covenants, are calculated in accordance with the definition in the debt agreements. In this context, these measures are used solely to provide information on the extent to which we are in compliance with debt covenants and may not be comparable to adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt used by other companies. Reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA to net income and net debt to total debt are as follows:

	Twelve Months Ended March 31,
(DOLLARS IN MILLIONS)	2014		2013
Net income	$	369.5	$	263.7
Interest expense	47.3		42.2

Specified items (1)	2.3		—
Non-cash items (2)	6.6		17.3
Adjusted EBITDA	$	643.4	$	597.1

(1) Specified items for the 12 months ended March 31, 2014 of $2.3 million consist of restructuring charges.

(2) Non-cash items, defined as part of Adjusted EBITDA in the terms of the Company’s credit facility agreement dated November 9, 2011, represent all other adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operations as presented on the Statement of Cash Flows, including gain on disposal of assets, stock-based compensation and pension settlement/curtailment.

As discussed in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, at March 31, 2014, we had entered into various guarantees and had undrawn outstanding letters of credit from financial institutions. These arrangements reflect ongoing business operations, including commercial commitments, and governmental requirements associated with audits or litigation that are in process with various jurisdictions. Based on the current facts and circumstances they are not reasonably likely to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

As discussed in Notes 6 and 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we had Euro 9.5 million (13.2 million) in bank guarantees outstanding as of March 31, 2014 related to the tax disputes in Spain. These amounts will be reduced once we make the remaining payments pursuant to the settlement agreement and the dividend withholding tax cases.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial operating measures in this Quarterly Report, including: (i) local currency sales (which eliminates the effects that result from translating its international sales in U.S. dollars), (ii) adjusted operating profit (which excludes the operational improvement initiative and restructuring charges), and (iii) adjusted effective tax rate (which excludes restructuring charges and operational improvement initiative costs). The Company also provides the non-GAAP measures adjusted EBITDA (which excludes certain specified items and non-cash items as set forth in the Company’s debt agreements) and net debt (which is adjusted for deferred gain on interest rate swaps and cash and cash equivalents) solely for the purpose of providing information on the extent to which the Company is in compliance with debt covenants contained in its debt agreements.

We have 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. In discussing our historical and expected future results and financial condition, we believe it is meaningful for investors to be made aware of and to be assisted in a better understanding of, on a period-to-period comparable basis, financial amounts both including and excluding these identified items, as well as the impact of exchange rate fluctuations and the exit of certain low margin sales activities on operating results and financial condition. We believe such additional non-GAAP information provides investors with an overall perspective of the period-to-period performance of our business. In addition, management internally reviews each of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance on a comparative period-to-period basis in terms of absolute performance, trends and expected future performance with respect to our business. A material limitation of these non-GAAP measures is that such measures do not reflect actual GAAP amounts; for example, costs associated with operational improvements and restructuring activities involve actual cash outlays. We compensate for such limitations by using these measures as one of several metrics, including GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There are no material changes in market risk from the information provided in the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer with the assistance of other members of our management, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We have established controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have also concluded that there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of our business.

Tax Claims

We are currently involved in a legal proceeding with the Spanish tax authorities that challenges tax deductions taken in our Spanish subsidiaries’ tax returns and allege claims of tax avoidance. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had one outstanding income tax case in Spain relating to fiscal year 2002. The Company has fully reserved the assessment originally asserted by the Spanish tax authority. The Company is awaiting a decision on its appeal and in order to proceed with the appeal,

27

the Company was required to post a bank guaranty. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had a remaining posted bank guaranty of Euro 1.8 million ($2.5 million) associated with the 2002 appeal.

The Spanish tax authorities have also alleged claims related to capital tax positions arising from the business structure adopted by our Spanish subsidiaries. During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company was notified that the Spanish High Court of Justice ruled against us in regards to the 2002 capital tax case. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of Euro 9.6 million ($13.0 million or $9.1 million, after tax) for the year ended December 31, 2013. On January 22, 2014, we filed an appeal. In order to avoid future interest costs in the event our appeal is unsuccessful, we paid $11.2 million (representing the principal amount) during the first quarter of 2014. Such amount will be refundable if we prevail in our appeal.

In addition to the above, the Company has also been a party to dividend withholding tax controversies in Spain. At March 31, 2014, the Company had Euro 4.5 million ($6.2 million) reflected in income taxes payable in connection with three of these cases. The fourth and final remaining appeal has not yet been heard by the Spanish Supreme Court, with an aggregate value of Euro 3.2 million ($4.5 million), including estimated interest, which is fully reserved as of March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had posted bank guarantees of Euro 7.7 million ($10.7 million) in order to proceed with the appeal in this controversy.

We do not currently believe that any of our pending tax assessments, even if ultimately resolved against us, would have a material impact on our financial condition.

Environmental

Over the past 20 years, various federal and state authorities and private parties have claimed that we are a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) as a generator of waste materials for alleged pollution at a number of waste sites operated by third parties located principally in New Jersey and have sought to recover costs incurred and to be incurred to clean up the sites.

We have been identified as a PRP at eight facilities operated by third parties at which investigation and/or remediation activities may be ongoing. We analyze our potential liability on at least a quarterly basis. We accrue for environmental liabilities when they are probable and estimable. We estimate our share of the total future cost for these sites to be less than $5 million.

While joint and several liability is authorized under federal and state environmental laws, we believe the amounts we have paid and anticipate paying in the future for clean-up costs and damages at all sites are not material and will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. This assessment is based upon, among other things, the involvement of other PRPs at most of the sites, the status of the proceedings, including various settlement agreements and consent decrees, and the extended time period over which payments will likely be made. There can be no assurance, however, that future events will not require us to materially increase the amounts we anticipate paying for clean-up costs and damages at these sites, and that such increased amounts will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Other

In March 2012, ZoomEssence, Inc. filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court of New Jersey alleging trade secret misappropriation, breach of contract and unjust enrichment in connection with certain spray dry technology disclosed to the Company. In connection with the claims, ZoomEssence is seeking an injunction and monetary damages. ZoomEssence initially sought a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, but the Court denied these applications in an order entered on September 27, 2013, finding that ZoomEssence had not demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits of its claims. The Court subsequently referred the matter to mediation, however the private mediation session did not result in a resolution of the dispute. The case is currently proceeding through general discovery with a trial on the merits anticipated in early 2015. The Company denies the allegations and will vigorously defend its position in Court. At this preliminary stage of the litigation, based on the information currently available to the Company, management does not believe that this matter represents a material loss contingency.

We are also a party to other litigations arising in the ordinary course of our business. We do not expect the outcome of these cases, singly or in the aggregate, to have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition.

RSU AWARD AGEEMENT

TERMS AND CONDITIONS (the “RSU TERMS AND CONDITIONS”)

These RSU Terms and Conditions, including the relevant addendum, are a part of each International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. (the “Company”) RSU Award Agreement made under the Plan, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of these RSU Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.

1. Amount of RSU Award. As of the Grant Date, the Participant shall be eligible to receive an RSU Award in the number of RSUs specified on the first page of the RSU Award Agreement. The RSU Award provides Participant with a contractual right to receive [one share of Stock][cash equal to the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock as of the Vesting Date] for each RSU being settled upon vesting.

2. Eligibility for Award. A Participant’s eligibility for an RSU Award shall be at the discretion of the Committee as authorized in Section 5 of the Plan. The grant of an RSU Award is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive any future RSU Award.

3. Vesting and Account. The RSU Award vests on the date set forth on the first page of the RSU Award Agreement if not previously forfeited, and is 0% vested before expiration of this period Prior to vesting, the Company or its designated agent shall maintain a bookkeeping account reflecting the number of RSUs credited to a Participant’s account.

4. Settlement of the Award. Upon vesting, the RSU Award will be settled by delivery of [one share of Stock][cash equal to the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of one share of Stock] as of the Vesting Date, for each RSU being settled. Such settlement shall occur promptly on or following the vesting of each RSU.

5. Voting Rights and Dividends. RSUs do not provide voting or dividend rights until fully vested and no dividends or dividend equivalents will be paid or credited on any unvested RSUs.

6. Termination of Employment or Leave of Absence. A Participant’s rights under the RSU Award following termination of employment or leave of absence shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions:

a. Termination Not for Cause or Early Retirement. If the Participant is involuntarily terminated not for Cause or voluntarily terminates for Early Retirement, a pro-rata portion of all outstanding unvested RSUs shall remain outstanding and will become vested at the Applicable Vesting Date as though Participant had not had a termination of employment under this subsection 6(a). The pro-rata portion

March 2014

shall be determined by multiplying the number of unvested RSUs by a fraction, the numerator of which is (x) the number of days from the Grant Date to the Participant’s termination of employment and (y) the denominator of which is 1,066. A Participant’s RSUs that have not vested before such termination of employment under this subsection 6(a), and which are not included in the pro rata portion subject to continued vesting will be immediately forfeited. “Applicable Vesting Date” means March 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant terminates due to Disability or Normal Retirement or, if earlier, the Award vesting date.

b. Resignation or Termination With Cause. If a Participant resigns, or is terminated by the Company for Cause, then all outstanding unvested RSUs will be immediately forfeited.

c. Normal Retirement or Disability. If a Participant terminates employment due to Normal Retirement or Disability, then all outstanding unvested RSUs will remain outstanding and will become vested at the Applicable Vesting Date as though the Participant had not had a termination of employment under this subsection 6(c). Upon vesting, such RSUs will be settled promptly, provided that if vesting occurs at an Applicable Vesting Date earlier than the Award vesting date, settlement will occur within fourteen (14) days after the Award vesting date.

d. Death. If a Participant terminates employment due to death, then all outstanding unvested RSUs will become immediately vested.

e. Leave of Absence. If a Participant is not in active employment for any portion of the vesting period as a result of a paid or unpaid leave of absence, the terms of any unvested RSU may be adjusted, subject to local legal requirements and applicable Company policies that govern leaves of absence.

7. Change in Control. In the event the Company undergoes a “Change in Control” as defined in Section 9 of the Plan, RSU Awards shall be treated as provided for in Section 9 of the Plan.

8. Clawback and Recoupment Provisions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Participant is designated by the Company as grade level 7 or above for any portion of the vesting period, any RSU Award made or payable shall be subject to the clawback, recoupment and forfeiture provisions of Section 10 of the Plan and Section 7 of the ESP, if applicable. By acknowledging the RSU Award Agreement, the Participant acknowledges that any and all RSU Awards previously granted to the Participant under Section 6 or Section 7 of the Plan prior to the Grant Date, and any other cash or Stock provided to the Participant prior to or following the Grant Date under the RSU Award or otherwise under the Plan, are subject to the provisions of Section 10 of the Plan and Section 7 of the ESP, if applicable.

9. Limits on Transfers of Awards. Except as provided by the Committee, no RSU Award and no right under any RSU Award, shall be assignable, alienable, saleable,

March 2014

or transferable by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution in accordance with Section 11(b) of the Plan.

10. Administration.

a. Administration. The Board has delegated administrative authority to the Committee and the RSU Award shall be administered by the Committee or a subset of the Committee that satisfies the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”) with respect to any incentive compensation subject to Code Section 162(m).

b. Powers and Duties. The Committee shall have sole discretion and authority to make any and all determinations necessary or advisable for administration of an RSU Award and may adopt, amend or revoke any rule or regulation established for the proper administration of an RSU Award. The Committee shall have the ability to modify the RSU Award provisions, to the extent necessary, or delegate such authority, to accommodate any changes in law or regulations in jurisdictions in which Participants will receive RSU Awards. The Committee will oversee RSU Award calculations. All interpretations, decisions, or determinations made by the Committee pursuant to an RSU Award shall be final and conclusive.

11. Amendment; Termination of the RSU Award. The Committee has the right to revise, modify, or terminate an RSU Award in whole or in part at any time or for any reason, and the right to modify any RSU Award amount in accordance with Section 11(e) of the Plan.

12. Tax Liability and Withholding. The Participant shall be responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a result of the payments contemplated by an RSU Award or these RSU Terms and Conditions in accordance with Section 11(d) of the Plan. The Participant acknowledges the Company is authorized to withholdtaxes due, or potentially payable in connection with any payment of an RSU Award in accordance with Section 11(d) of the Plan. Further, the Participant agrees to any deduction or setoff by the Company as provided under Section 11(f) of the Plan.

13. Compliance with Code Section 409A. Section 11(j) of the Plan is hereby incorporated by reference.

14. Severability; Survival of Terms. Should any provision of an RSU Award or these RSU Terms and Conditions be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such holding shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the RSU Award or these RSU Terms and Conditions. These RSU Terms and Conditions shall apply to and bind the Participant and the Company and their respective permitted assignees and transferees, heirs, legatees, executors, administrators and legal successors.

March 2014

15. Entire Agreement; Dispute Resolution. These RSU Terms and Conditions and all addendums hereto, the RSU Award Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof.

16. Non U.S. Residents. Rights and restrictions for Participants residing in foreign countries may differ and shall be based on applicable foreign law and will be governed by Section 11(K) of the Plan.

17. Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver any documents related to an RSU Award by electronic means. The Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.

18. Governing Law. These RSU Terms and Conditions and the RSU Award Agreement shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of New York and the United States without regard to principles of conflict of law.

Participant may, at any time, review Data, require any necessary amendments to it or withdraw the consents herein in writing by contacting the Company; however, withdrawing consent may affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan.

March 2014

Further, if Participant transfers Participant’s residence and/or employment to another country, at the time of transfer, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to Participant to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local laws, rules and regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the RSUs and the Plan (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate Participant’s transfer).

EQUITY CHOICE PROGRAM AWARD AGEEMENT

TERMS AND CONDITIONS (the “ECP TERMS AND CONDITIONS”)

These ECP Terms and Conditions are a part of each International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. (the “Company”) ECP Award Agreement made under the Plan, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of these ECP Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.

1. Amount of ECP Award. As of the Grant Date, the Participant shall be eligible to receive an ECP Award in the forms and amounts set forth on the first page of the ECP Award Agreement.

2. Eligibility for Award. A Participant’s eligibility for an ECP Award shall be at the discretion of the Committee. Eligibility for an ECP Award in one period does not guarantee eligibility for an ECP Award in a later period.

3. Vesting of Award. The ECP Award vests on the date set forth on the first page of the ESP Award Agreement if not previously forfeited, and is 0% vested before expiration of this period.

4. ECP Award Allocations. Participants may elect to allocate their total ECP Award between three types of ECP Award grants in 5% increments: (i) Purchase Restricted Stock (“PRS”), (ii) Stock-Settled Appreciation Rights (“SSARs”), and (iii) Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”). If a Participant does not elect an ECP Award type within the time period specified by the Committee, 100% of the ECP Award will be allocated to SSARs by default or such other default selection specified by the Committee.

5. Purchase Restricted Stock (“PRS”). PRS are restricted Shares (or RSUs for non-U.S. Participants) granted under Section 6 of the Plan. As used herein, the term “PRS” shall mean Shares or RSUs representing PRS, as applicable. There is a 20% adjustment upward of the ECP Award value for any allocation of the ESP Award elected in PRS (By way of example, if a Participant elects to receive $100 of his or her ECP in PRS, the Participant will be required to fund, and will receive matching PRS from the Company, valued at $120). If a Participant chooses PRS, then he or she must deliver funds (or Shares with an equivalent value) equal to the dollar amount of the ECP Award that he or she is electing to receive in PRS (including the 20% adjustment described above). Upon receipt of the funds or Shares by the Company, the Participant shall receive (a) PRS in the form of Shares calculated based on the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date (“Purchased PRS”) and (b) a match of PRS in the form of Shares or RSUs, as determined by the Company based on the location of the Participant (the “Matched PRS”). Cash shall be paid to Participant in lieu of any fractional shares.

March 2014

(1) Evidence of PRS Awards.Purchased PRS and Matched PRS shall be issued and registered in the name of the Participant and evidence of ownership of the Purchased PRS and Matched PRS shall be retained by the Company in a restricted account maintained by the Company’s designated agent.

(2) Voting Rights.The Participant shall be entitled to vote PRS (including Matched PRS that are in the form of Shares, but not Matched PRS that are in the form of RSUs) on any matter submitted to a vote of holders of Shares, and shall have all other rights of a shareholder of the Company except as expressly limited by the ECP Award Agreement or the Plan.

(3) Dividends and Distributions.Purchased PRS and Matched PRS in the form of Shares earn dividends (or dividend equivalents in the case of RSUs) and are entitled to distributions during the vesting period if and to the extent that the Participant is the record owner of such PRS on any record date for such a dividend or distribution and Participant has not forfeited the Matched PRS on or before the payment date for such dividend or distribution.

(a) In the event of a cash dividend or cash distribution on Shares, such dividend or distribution shall be paid in cash to Participant at the time of payment to shareholders generally and shall be non-forfeitable.

(b) In the event of any non-cash dividend or distribution in the form of property other than Shares, such property shall be distributed in respect of Purchased PRS, but the Company (or its designated agent) shall retain in its custody the property so distributed in respect of Matched PRS, which property will become vested if and to the same extent the underlying Matched PRS becomes vested and, to the greatest extent practicable, shall be subject to all other terms and conditions applied to the underlying Matched PRS, including in the event of any dividends or distributions paid in respect of such property; provided, however, that any dividend or distribution of rights that expire before the vesting date will be unrestricted and exercisable by Participant in accordance with their terms.

(c) In the event of a dividend or distribution in the form of Shares or a stock split of Shares, the Shares so issued or delivered will be deemed to be additional Purchased PRS or Matched PRS, as the case may be, and in the case of Matched PRS will become vested if and to the same extent as the underlying Matched PRS. If the PRS are in the form of Shares, the dividends and distributions will be made in Shares; if the PRS are in the form of RSUs the dividends and distributions will be made in the form of RSUs.

(4) Restrictions on PRSThe PRS shall be subject to the following restrictions during the vesting period:

(a) Purchased PRS. The Participant shall have the right to withdraw, transfer, sell, assign, pledge or encumber (subject to Section 11(b) of the Plan) any or all of the Purchased PRS at any time, by written notice addressed to the Company; provided that such withdrawal,

transfer, sale, assignment, pledge or encumbrance of Purchased PRS will result in forfeiture of a corresponding number of Matched PRS.

(b) Matched PRS. Matched PRS are subject to the risk of forfeiture and other restrictions specified in the ECP Award Agreement and these ECP Terms and Conditions. Participant shall have no right to withdraw or otherwise receive delivery of Matched PRS until such time as the Matched PRS have become vested. Until such time as the Matched PRS become vested, Participant may not transfer Matched PRS or any rights thereunder to any third party other than by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution, except for transfers to a Beneficiary upon the death of Participant or otherwise if and to the extent permitted by the Company and subject to the conditions under Section 11(b) of the Plan. Participant agrees to execute and deliver to the Company one or more stock powers, in such form as may be specified by the Company, authorizing the transfer of the Matched Shares to the Company, upon the request of the Company.

6. Stock-Settled Appreciation Rights (“SSARs”). SSARs are an award granted under Section 6 of the Plan, under which Participants receive a contractual right to receive the value in Shares of the appreciation in the Company’s Share price from the SSAR Grant Date to the date the SSAR is exercised by the Participant.

(a) Number of SSARS Granted. The total number of SSARs granted by the Company to a Participant is set forth on the first page of the ECP Award Agreement and is based on 4.5 times the Participant’s SSARs award value divided by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date. By way of example:

“If the Participant’s ECP Award value is $100 and the Participant elects to allocate the total ECP Award to SSARs, then the number of SSARs granted to the Participant would be equal to $100 multiplied by 4.5 divided by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date. If the Fair Market Value of Share on the Grant Date was $10 per Share, then the Participant would receive 45 SSARs.”

(b) Evidence of SSAR Awards. Prior to vesting, the Company (or its designated agent) shall maintain a bookkeeping account reflecting the number of SSARs granted as part of an ECP Award, and credited to a Participant’s account.

(c) Exercise and Payment of Awards. A Participant may exercise vested SSARs by delivering written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares as to which SSARS are being exercised and the name in which Participant wishes the Shares to be issued. SSARs may only be exercised on a date that the Fair Market Value of a Share exceeds the Base Price (as defined below) and only if the SSARs are otherwise exercisable at such date. Upon exercise of SSARs, a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment in Shares, calculated as follows:

Shares Paid = (FMV minus Base Price) multiplied by (number of SSARs exercised) divided by FMV

March 2014

“FMV” is the Fair Market Value of a Share at the exercise date

“Base Price” is the Share price on the Grant Date as set forth in the Award Agreement.

If any fractional Share would be deliverable upon exercise, after taking into account withholding for mandatory taxes, the Company will pay cash in lieu of delivery of such fractional Share or will use such cash to apply towards withholding for taxes.

(d) Exercise Period. SSARs are exercisable for a seven (7) year period, as measured from the Grant Date or such earlier date as such SSAR may terminate as described herein. If, on the date the SSARs expire or terminate, the Fair Market Value of a Share exceeds the Base Price and the SSARs are otherwise exercisable, the SSARs shall be automatically exercised.

(e) Dividend and Voting Rights. SSARS do not earn dividends and are not entitled to any voting rights.

B. Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”). RSUs are an Award granted under Section 6 of the Plan, under which Participants receive a contractual right to receive unrestricted Shares upon vesting.

(a) Number of RSUs granted. The total number of RSUs granted by the Company to a Participant is set forth on the first page of the ECP Award Agreement and is based on the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Grant Date.

(b) Evidence of RSU Award.Prior to vesting, the Company or its designated agent shall maintain a bookkeeping account reflecting the number of RSUs granted as part of an ECP Award, and credited to a Participant’s account.

(c) Settlement of RSUs. Upon vesting, the RSUs will be settled by delivery of one share of Company Common Stock for each RSU being settled. Such settlement shall occur promptly on or following the vesting of each RSU.

(d) Dividends/Dividend Equivalents and Voting Rights.RSUs do not provide voting or dividend rights until fully vested and no dividends will be paid or credited on any RSUs.

7. Termination of Employment. The following provisions will govern the treatment of a Participant’s ECP Award in the event of a termination of employment.

A. Termination for Cause or Resignation. If a Participant terminates employment for Cause (as defined in the Plan) or voluntarily terminates (other than a Normal Retirement or Early Retirement), then:

(1) All outstanding unvested PRS Matched Shares will be immediately forfeited;

March 2014

(2) All outstanding unvested SSARs will be immediately forfeited and all vested SSARs (i) will cease to be exercisable and will terminate three (3) months after termination of employment with the Company (or an affiliate of the Company) due to a voluntary termination by the Participant (but in no event after the expiration date of the award grant) and (ii) all outstanding vested SSARs will cease to be exercisable and will immediately terminate in the case of a termination for Cause by the Company; and,

(3) All outstanding unvested RSUs will be immediately forfeited.

B. Termination due to Disability or Normal Retirement. If a Participant terminates employment due to Disability or Normal Retirement, then:

(1) All outstanding unvested Matched Shares will remain outstanding and will become vested at the Award vesting date as though the Participant had not had a termination of employment under this subsection 4.B.;

(2) All outstanding unvested SSARs will remain outstanding and will become exercisable at the Award vesting date as though the Participant had not had a termination of employment under this subsection 4.B.; and,

(3) All outstanding unvested RSUs will remain outstanding and will become vested at the Applicable Vesting Date as though the Participant had not had a termination of employment under this subsection 4.B. Upon vesting, such RSUs will be settled promptly, provided that if vesting occurs at an Applicable Vesting Date earlier than the Award vesting date, settlement will occur within fourteen (14) days after the Award vesting date. “Applicable Vesting Date” means March 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Participant terminates due to Disability or Normal Retirement or, if earlier, the Award vesting date.

C. Termination Not for Cause or Early Retirement. If a Participant involuntarily terminates employment not for Cause, or voluntarily terminates due to Early Retirement (as defined in the Plan), then:

(1) A pro rata portion of all outstanding unvested Matched Shares will remain outstanding and will become vested at the Award vesting date as though the Participant had not had a termination of employment under this Section 4.C.;

(2) A pro rata portion of all outstanding unvested SSARs will remain outstanding and will become exercisable at the Award vesting date as though the Participant had not had a termination of employment under this subsection 4.C. SSARs that were vested at the time of the Participant’s termination of employment and those that become vested thereafter will remain outstanding and exercisable until the expiration date of the Award grant, at which date the SSARs will cease to be exercisable and will terminate; and

March 2014

(3) A pro rata portion of all outstanding unvested RSUs will remain outstanding and will become vested at the Applicable Vesting Date as though the Participant had not had such a termination of employment under this Section 4.C. Such outstanding RSUs will be promptly settled, provided that if vesting occurs at an Applicable Vesting Date earlier than the Award vesting date, settlement will occur within fourteen (14) days after the Award vesting date.

(4) For purposes of subsections C. (1) through C. (3) above, the pro rata portion will be determined by multiplying the number of unvested Matched Shares, SSARs or RSUs, as the case may be, by a fraction with the numerator of which is (x) the number of days from the Grant Date to the date of the Participant’s termination of employment and (y) the denominator of which is 1,066. A Participant’s PRS, SSARs or RSUs, as the case may be, that had not vested before such termination of employment under this subsection 4.C. and which are not included in the pro rata portion subject to continued vesting will be immediately forfeited.

D. Termination due to Death. If a Participant terminates employment due to death, then:

(1) All outstanding unvested Matched Shares will become immediately vested;

(2) All outstanding unvested SSARs will become immediately vested and exercisable, and all vested SSARs will remain outstanding and exercisable until the expiration date of the grant, at which date the SSARs will cease to be exercisable and will terminate; and

10. Limits on Transfers of Awards. Except as provided by the Committee, no ECP Award and no right under any ECP Award, shall be assignable, alienable, saleable,

March 2014

or transferable by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution in accordance with Section 11(b) of the Plan.

Fragrance Ingredients Rationalization

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company announced that it intends to close its fragrance ingredients manufacturing facility in Augusta, Georgia by July 2014 and plans to consolidate production into other Company facilities. In connection with this closure, the Company expects to incur charges of $16 - $21 million, consisting primarily of $10 - $12 million in accelerated depreciation of fixed assets, $3 - $4 million in personnel-related costs and $3 - $5 million in plant shutdown and other related costs. The Company recorded total charges of $7.4 million during 2013, consisting of $2.2 million of pre-tax charges related to severance included in Restructuring and other charges, net and $5.2 million of non-cash charges related to accelerated depreciation included in Cost of goods sold. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company recorded an additional $0.1 million of severance costs included in Restructuring and other charges, net and $2.3 million of non-cash charges related to accelerated depreciation included in Cost of goods sold. The remainder of the estimated costs is expected to be recognized over the following quarter. The Company expects that 43 positions will be eliminated as a result of these decisions. The Company estimates that approximately $6 - $9 million of the costs will result in future cash expenditures.

Changes in employee-related restructuring liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2014 related to the Fragrance Ingredients Rationalization were as follows:

Net Income Per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Net Income Per Share

Net Income Per Share:

Net income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding. A reconciliation of the shares used in the computation of basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(SHARES IN THOUSANDS)	2014	2013
Basic	81,053	81,291
Assumed dilution under stock plans	679	733
Diluted	81,732	82,024

There were no stock options and stock settled appreciation rights (“SSARs”) excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company has issued shares of purchased restricted common stock (“PRS”) which contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends while these shares are outstanding and thus are considered participating securities which are required to be included in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company did not present the two-class method since the difference between basic and diluted net income per share for both unrestricted common shareholders and PRS shareholders was less than $0.01 per share for each period presented and the number of PRS outstanding as of March 31, 2014 and 2013 was immaterial (approximately 0.7% of the total number of common shares outstanding as of March 31, 2014 and 2013). Net income allocated to such PRS was $0.7 million and $0.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Consolidated Financial Statements

Consolidated Financial Statements:

Basis of Presentation

These interim statements and related management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and their related notes and management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations, liquidity and capital resources included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2013 Form 10-K”). These interim statements are unaudited. The year-end balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q filing was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. We have historically operated and continue to operate on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to the last day of the quarter. For ease of presentation, March 31 and December 31 are used consistently throughout this Form 10-Q and these interim financial statements and related notes to represent the period-end dates. For the 2014 and 2013 quarters, the actual closing dates were March 28 and March 29, respectively. The unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. When used herein, the terms “IFF,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance clarifying the accounting for the release of cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. This update clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose. In such situations, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies:

Guarantees and Letters of Credit

The Company has various bank guarantees and letters of credit which are available for use regarding governmental requirements associated with pending litigation in various jurisdictions and to support its ongoing business operations.

At March 31, 2014, we had total bank guarantees and standby letters of credit of approximately $45.9 million with various financial institutions. Of this amount, Euro 9.5 million ($13.2 million) in bank guarantees are related to governmental requirements on income tax disputes in Spain, as discussed in further detail in Note 9 of our 2013 Form 10-K. Also included in the above aggregate amount is a total of $22.6 million in bank guarantees which the Company has posted for certain assessments in Brazil for other diverse income tax and indirect tax disputes related to fiscal years 1998-2011. There were no material amounts utilized under the standby letters of credit as of March 31, 2014.

In order to challenge the assessments in these cases in Brazil, the Company has been required to, and has separately pledged assets, principally property, plant and equipment, to cover assessments in the amount of approximately $20 million as of March 31, 2014.

Lines of Credit

The Company has various lines of credit which are available to support its ongoing business operations. At March 31, 2014, we had available lines of credit (in addition to the Credit Facility discussed in Note 5) of approximately $84.9 million with various financial institutions. There were no significant amounts drawn down pursuant to these lines of credit as of March 31, 2014.

Litigation

The Company assesses contingencies related to litigation and/or other matters to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss. A loss contingency is accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur, assessing contingencies is highly sensitive and requires judgments about future events. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company reviews contingencies related to litigation to determine the adequacy of accruals. The amount of ultimate loss may differ from these estimates and further events may require the Company to increase or decrease the amounts it has accrued on any matter.

Periodically, we assess our insurance coverage for all known claims, where applicable, taking into account aggregate coverage by occurrence, limits of coverage, self-insured retentions and deductibles, historical claims experience and claims experience with our insurance carriers. The liabilities are recorded at management’s best estimate of the probable outcome of the lawsuits and claims, taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the individual matters as well as past experience on similar matters. At each balance sheet date, the key issues that management assesses are whether it is probable that a loss as to asserted or unasserted claims has been incurred and if so, whether the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We record the expected liability with respect to claims in Other liabilities and expected recoveries from our insurance carriers in Other assets. We recognize a receivable when we believe that realization of the insurance receivable is probable under the terms of the insurance policies and our payment experience to date.

Environmental

Over the past 20 years, various federal and state authorities and private parties have claimed that we are a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) as a generator of waste materials for alleged pollution at a number of waste sites operated by third parties located principally in New Jersey and have sought to recover costs incurred and to be incurred to clean up the sites.

We have been identified as a PRP at eight facilities operated by third parties at which investigation and/or remediation activities may be ongoing. We analyze our potential liability on at least a quarterly basis. We accrue for environmental liabilities when they are probable and estimable. We estimate our share of the total future cost for these sites to be less than $5 million.

While joint and several liability is authorized under federal and state environmental laws, we believe the amounts we have paid and anticipate paying in the future for clean-up costs and damages at all sites are not material and will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. This assessment is based upon, among other things, the involvement of other PRPs at most of the sites, the status of the proceedings, including various settlement agreements and consent decrees, and the extended time period over which payments will likely be made. There can be no assurance, however, that future events will not require us to materially increase the amounts we anticipate paying for clean-up costs and damages at these sites, and that such increased amounts will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Contingencies

The Company has contingencies involving third parties (such as labor, contract, technology or product-related claims or litigation) as well as government-related items in various jurisdictions in which we operate pertaining to such items as value-added taxes, other indirect taxes, customs and duties and sales and use taxes. It is possible that cash flows or results of operations, in any period, could be materially affected by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies.

The most significant government-related contingencies exist in Brazil. With regard to the Brazilian matters, we believe we have valid defenses for the underlying positions under dispute; however, in order to pursue these defenses, we are required to, and have provided, bank guarantees and pledged assets in the aggregate amount of $42.6 million. The Brazilian matters take an extended period of time to proceed through the judicial process and there are a limited number of rulings to date.

In March 2012, ZoomEssence, Inc. filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court of New Jersey alleging trade secret misappropriation, breach of contract and unjust enrichment in connection with certain spray dry technology disclosed to the Company. In connection with the claims, ZoomEssence is seeking an injunction and monetary damages. ZoomEssence initially sought a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, but the Court denied these applications in an order entered on September 27, 2013, finding that ZoomEssence had not demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits of its claims. The Court subsequently referred the matter to mediation, however the private mediation session did not result in a resolution of the dispute. The case is currently proceeding through general discovery with a trial on the merits anticipated in early 2015. The Company denies the allegations and will vigorously defend its position in Court. At this preliminary stage of the litigation, based on the information currently available to the Company, management does not believe that this matter represents a material loss contingency.

Based on the information available as of March 31, 2014, we estimate a range of reasonably possible loss related to the matters above, collectively, is $3-$20 million.

Separately, the Spanish tax authorities are alleging claims for a capital tax in a case arising from similar allegations as the income tax cases (discussed in further detail in Note 9 of our 2013 Form 10-K). In connection with the 2002 income tax assessment ruling the Appellate Court rejected one of the two bases upon which we based our capital tax position. However, we believe that we still have a strong basis for our capital tax position and intend to continue to defend these claims. If there is an unfavorable ruling in this case, we estimate a reasonably possible loss of approximately $13 million. On January 22, 2014, we filed an appeal and in order to avoid future interest costs in the event our appeal is unsuccessful, we paid $11.2 million (representing the principal amount) during the first quarter of 2014.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes:

At March 31, 2014, we had $21.5 million of unrecognized tax benefits recorded in Other liabilities. If these unrecognized tax benefits were recognized, the effective tax rate would be affected.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had accrued interest and penalties of $2.3 million classified in Other liabilities.

The Company regularly repatriates a portion of current year earnings from select non–U.S. subsidiaries. No provision is made for additional taxes on undistributed earnings of subsidiary companies that are intended and planned to be indefinitely invested in such subsidiaries. We intend to, and have plans to, reinvest these earnings indefinitely in our foreign subsidiaries to fund local operations and/or capital projects.

The Company has ongoing income tax audits and legal proceedings which are at various stages of administrative or judicial review, of which the most significant items are discussed below. In addition, the Company has other ongoing tax audits and legal proceedings that relate to indirect taxes, such as value-added taxes, capital tax, sales and use taxes and property taxes, which are discussed in Note 12.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had one outstanding income tax case in Spain relating to fisca1 year 2002. The Company has fully reserved the assessment originally asserted by the Spanish tax authority. The Company is awaiting a decision on its appeal, and in order to proceed with the appeal, the Company was required to post a bank guaranty, which as of March 31, 2014, was in the amount of Euro 1.8 million ($2.5 million).

In addition to the above, the Company has also been a party to dividend withholding tax controversies in Spain. At March 31, 2014, the Company had Euro 4.5 million ($6.2 million) reflected in income taxes payable in connection with three of these cases. The fourth and final remaining case is under appeal and has not yet been heard by the Spanish Supreme Court, with an aggregate value of Euro 3.2 million ($4.5 million), including estimated interest, which is fully reserved as of March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had posted bank guarantees of Euro 7.7 million ($10.7 million) in order to proceed with the appeal.

In addition to the Spanish tax controversy, the Company has several other tax audits in process and has open tax years with various taxing jurisdictions that range primarily from 2004 to 2013. Based on currently available information, we do not believe the ultimate outcome of any of these tax audits and other tax positions related to open tax years, when finalized, will have a material impact on our financial position.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s aggregate provisions for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties, was $23.8 million, which includes $2.2 million associated with the tax positions taken by our Spanish subsidiaries for the 2002 fiscal year, $3.8 million associated with our Spanish dividend withholding tax controversies and the remainder associated with various other tax positions asserted in foreign jurisdictions, none of which is individually material.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 25.3% compared with 28.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The effective tax rate for the 2013 first quarter includes a $6.2 million after-tax charge associated with the 2002-2003 tax ruling during the first quarter of 2013, which was partially offset by a $2.7 million benefit associated with U.S. tax legislation enacted in the first quarter of 2013 (including the R&D tax credit). The quarter-over-quarter decrease is principally driven by the absence of the $6.2 million after-tax charge partially offset by the expiration of the R&D tax credit in December 2013.

Basis of Presentation

These interim statements and related management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and their related notes and management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations, liquidity and capital resources included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2013 Form 10-K”). These interim statements are unaudited. The year-end balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q filing was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. We have historically operated and continue to operate on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to the last day of the quarter. For ease of presentation, March 31 and December 31 are used consistently throughout this Form 10-Q and these interim financial statements and related notes to represent the period-end dates. For the 2014 and 2013 quarters, the actual closing dates were March 28 and March 29, respectively. The unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance clarifying the accounting for the release of cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. This update clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except to the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose. In such situations, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this statement did not have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments:

Fair Value

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

• Level 1–Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

• Level 2–Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

• Level 3–Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

This hierarchy requires us to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. We determine the fair value of structured liabilities (where performance is linked to structured interest rates, inflation or currency risks) using the LIBOR swap curve and forward interest and exchange rates at period end. Such instruments are classified as Level 2 based on the observability of significant inputs to the model. We do not have any instruments classified as Level 1 or Level 3, other than those included in pension asset trusts as discussed in Note 13 of our 2013 Form 10-K.

These valuations take into consideration our credit risk and our counterparties’ credit risk. The estimated change in the fair value of these instruments due to such changes in our own credit risk (or instrument-specific credit risk) was immaterial as of March 31, 2014.

The amounts recorded in the balance sheet (carrying amount) and the estimated fair values of financial instruments at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2014				December 31, 2013
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)
Cash and cash equivalents (1)	$	268,584	$	268,584	$	405,505	$	405,505
Credit facilities and bank overdrafts (2)	2,557		2,557		984		984
Long-term debt: (3)
Senior notes - 2007	500,000		593,909		500,000		590,024
Senior notes - 2006	125,000		137,469		125,000		139,146
Senior notes - 2013	299,760		286,922		299,736		278,770

(1) The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

(2) The carrying amount of our credit facilities and bank overdrafts approximates fair value as the interest rate is reset frequently based on current market rates as well as the short maturity of those instruments.

(3) The fair value of our long-term debt was calculated using discounted cash flows applying current interest rates and current credit spreads based on our own credit risk.

Derivatives

We periodically enter into foreign currency forward contracts with the objective of reducing exposure to cash flow volatility associated with our intercompany loans, foreign currency receivables and payables, and anticipated purchases of certain raw materials used in operations. These contracts generally involve the exchange of one currency for a second currency at a future date, have maturities not exceeding twelve months and are with counterparties which are major international financial institutions.

In 2003, we executed a 10-year Yen - U.S. dollar currency swap related to the monthly sale and purchase of products between the U.S. and Japan which had been designated as a cash flow hedge. This swap matured in January 2013.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, we entered into a forward currency contract which qualified as a net investment hedge, in order to mitigate a portion of our net European investments from foreign currency risk. The effective portions of net investment hedges are recorded in Other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as a component of Foreign currency translation adjustments in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Realized gains (losses) are deferred in AOCI where they will remain until the net investments in our European subsidiaries are divested. Three of these forward currency contracts matured during the three months ended March 31, 2014. The outstanding forward currency contracts have remaining maturities of approximately one year.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, we entered into several forward currency contracts which qualified as cash flow hedges. The objective of these hedges is to protect against the currency risk associated with forecasted U.S. dollar (USD) denominated raw material purchases made by Euro (EUR) functional currency entities which result from changes in the EUR/USD exchange rate. The effective portions of cash flow hedges are recorded in OCI as a component of Losses on derivatives qualifying as hedges in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Realized gains/(losses) in AOCI related to cash flow hedges of raw material purchases are recognized as a component of Cost of goods sold in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the same period as the related costs are recognized.

During Q1 2013, we entered into three interest rate swaps to hedge the anticipated issuance of fixed-rate debt, which are designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portions of cash flow hedges are recorded in OCI as a component of Losses on derivatives qualifying as hedges in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. During the second quarter of 2013, we terminated these swaps and incurred a loss of $2.7 million, which we will amortize as Interest expense over the life of the Senior Notes - 2013 (discussed in Note 8 of our 2013 Form 10-K).

During Q3 2013, we entered into multiple interest rate swap agreements that effectively converted the fixed rate on a portion of our long-term borrowings to a variable short-term rate based on the LIBOR plus an interest markup. These swaps are designated as fair value hedges. Amounts recognized in Interest expense were immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The following table shows the notional amount of the Company’s derivative instruments outstanding as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

No ineffectiveness was experienced in the above noted cash flow hedges during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The ineffective portion of the net investment hedges was not material during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company expects that approximately $2.2 million (net of tax) of derivative losses included in AOCI at March 31, 2014, based on current market rates, will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. The majority of this amount will vary due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

⁽¹⁾  Includes patents, trademarks, technological know-how and other intellectual property, valued at acquisition.

On January 15, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity of Aromor Flavors and Fragrances Ltd. ("Aromor"), a privately held manufacturer and marketer of complex specialty ingredients that are used in fragrances and flavors. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method. The Company paid $102.5 million (including $0.1 million of cash acquired) for this acquisition, which was funded out of existing cash resources. Aromor is part of the IFF Fragrances Ingredients business and was acquired in order to strengthen this business and provide cost-effective quality materials for use in our formula creations. The purchase price exceeded the carrying value of existing net assets by approximately $56 million. The excess was allocated principally to identifiable intangible assets (approximately $53 million), goodwill (approximately $10 million) and approximately $9 million to deferred tax liabilities. Separately identifiable intangible assets are principally related to technological know-how. Additionally, the consideration included $15 million related to post-combination contingent consideration, held in escrow. This amount has been escrowed and will be expensed by the Company as it is earned by the selling shareholders over three years based upon the continued participation in the acquired business of certain key personnel. The purchase price allocation is preliminary pending final valuations and is expected to be completed by the second quarter of 2014, with the assignment of final values to various intangible assets. No pro forma financial information for 2013 is presented as the impact of the acquisition is immaterial.

Amortization expense was $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Annual amortization is expected to be $5.4 million for the year 2014, $5.4 million for the years 2015 through 2017, $5.3 million for the year 2018 and $4.6 million for the year 2019. The above amounts are still subject to final purchase price allocations.

(1) The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

(2) The carrying amount of our credit facilities and bank overdrafts approximates fair value as the interest rate is reset frequently based on current market rates as well as the short maturity of those instruments.

(3) The fair value of our long-term debt was calculated using discounted cash flows applying current interest rates and current credit spreads based on our own credit risk.
