Note 1. Consolidated Financial Statements:

Basis of Presentation

These interim statements and management's related 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 and financial condition included in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K ("2010 Form 10-K"). These interim statements are unaudited. The year-end balance sheet data included in this filing was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have historically operated on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to the last day of the quarter. For ease of presentation, December 31 and June 30 are utilized consistently throughout this report and these financial statements and notes to represent the period-end date. 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 in these notes, the terms "the Registrant", "IFF," "the Company," "we", "us" and "our" means International Flavors & Fragrances Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years' Consolidated Balance Sheet to conform to the 2011 presentation.

Revisions

The prior year's statement of cash flows has been revised to reflect adjustments to Changes in Other assets and Changes in Other liabilities to properly exclude certain non-cash activity on a gross basis. $5.8 million was reclassified from Changes in Other assets to Changes in Other liabilities in the statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010. There were no changes to the balance sheet, operating cash flows, net income or stockholder's equity in the respective periods.
