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

Introduction

Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) is provided to assist readers in understanding our performance, as reflected in the results of our operations, our financial condition and our cash flows. The following discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting our consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our future results could differ materially from our historical performance as a result of various factors such as those discussed in “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report and “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview of our business

Phibro Animal Health Corporation is a leading global diversified animal health and mineral nutrition company. We develop, manufacture and market a broad range of products for food and companion animals including poultry, swine, beef and dairy cattle, aquaculture, and dogs. Our products help prevent, control and treat diseases, and support nutrition to help improve animal health and well-being. In addition to animal health and mineral nutrition products, we manufacture and market specific ingredients for use in the personal care, industrial chemical and chemical catalyst industries.

Acquisition

In April 2024, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Zoetis Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Zoetis”) to acquire Zoetis’s medicated feed additive (“MFA”) portfolio, certain water-soluble products and related assets (the “Acquisition”). On October 31, 2024, the Company completed the Acquisition at a purchase price of approximately $297.5 million ($286.5 million, as adjusted, net of cash acquired). The Acquisition was funded by term loan borrowings under the 2024 Credit Agreement. Since the Acquisition, the product portfolio acquired has contributed $478.7 million to our overall net sales, of which $95.9 million and $77.0 million were recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and $270.5 million and $113.7 million were recorded in the nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Also included in the Acquisition were six manufacturing sites, comprised of four in the U.S., one in Italy and one in China. The results of operations of the Acquisition are included in our consolidated statements of operations from the date of acquisition and reported within the Animal Health segment.

2024 Credit Agreement

In July 2024, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2024 Credit Agreement”) with a group of lenders. Initial borrowings were used to refinance all our outstanding debt, to pay fees and expenses of the transaction, and for ongoing working capital requirements and general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Delayed Draw Term A-1 and A-2 Loans were used to finance the purchase price of the Acquisition. See “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Debt — 2024 Credit Agreement” for additional information.

On April 28, 2026, the 2024 Credit Agreement was amended to increase our borrowing capacity by expanding the Revolving Credit Commitments by $125.0 million, from $310.0 million to an aggregate commitment of $435.0 million. The expanded borrowing capacity provides the Company with enhanced operating flexibility. Fees of approximately $0.6 million were incurred to execute this amendment and will be amortized to interest expense through the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

Armed Conflicts

Middle East Conflicts

Since October 2023, Israel has been engaged in ongoing hostilities along its northern and southern borders, and tensions in the broader Middle East, including with Iran, remain elevated. The situation in the region is volatile, unpredictable, and subject to rapid escalation.

We have three manufacturing sites in Israel. A manufacturing plant in Neot Hovav that produces active pharmaceutical ingredients for certain of our anticoccidial and antimicrobial products, a facility in Beit Shemesh that produces vaccines and a plant in Petah Tikvah that manufactures premix products and nutritional products. In addition, we have an office location near Tel Aviv in Airport City. As of March 31, 2026, we had approximately 520 employees located in Israel. We have confidence in our ability to meet our supply commitment to customers and maintain sufficient inventory to continue regional support. Our operations in Israel have navigated numerous challenging situations over the years.

The continuation and/or escalation of conflicts in the region may trigger additional bans, economic and other sanctions, as well as broader military actions, which could include neighboring nations and their respective allies. The potential impact of the current conflicts, or escalation thereof, on our business is unclear but may include, without limitation, the possible disruption of our operations, particularly at our facilities in Israel, supply chain and logistics disruptions, personnel and raw material shortages, and other consequences, including as a result of the actions of, or disruption of the operations of, certain regulatory and governmental authorities and of certain of our suppliers, collaborative partners, licensees, manufacturing sites, distributors and customers.

Our Israeli manufacturing facilities and local operations account for 17% of our consolidated assets as of March 31, 2026, and 16% of our consolidated net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2026.

Russia and Ukraine

In response to the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine that began in February 2022, we and our employees have provided support to Ukraine in the form of monetary donations, free products and humanitarian services. Our limited intent for the Russian market is to continue to provide medicines and vaccines, and related regulatory and technical support, to help existing customers combat disease challenges in the production of food animals on their farms. We have no production or direct distribution operations and no planned investments in Russia.

Since the conflict began, the United States and other North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) member states, as well as non-member states, announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, including certain Russian citizens and enterprises. The continuation or escalation of the conflict may trigger additional economic and other sanctions, as well as broader military conflict. The potential impacts of any resulting bans, sanctions, boycotts or broader military conflicts on our business are uncertain. The potential impacts could include supply chain and logistics disruptions, macroeconomic impacts resulting from the exclusion of Russian financial institutions from the global banking system, volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, inflationary pressures on raw materials and energy as well as heightened cybersecurity threats. Our sales to Russia and Ukraine for the twelve months ended March 31, 2026 represented approximately 1% of consolidated net sales.

We cannot know if the conflict could escalate and result in broader economic and security concerns that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Macroeconomic developments

​

Macroeconomic developments, such as adverse economic conditions worldwide, international conflicts, or efforts of governments to stimulate or stabilize the economy or manage trade disputes, may adversely impact our business. For example, the U.S. government has instituted or proposed changes in trade policies that include the renegotiation or termination of existing trade agreements, the imposition of higher tariffs on imports into the United States, and other government regulations affecting trade between the United States and other countries. These measures could introduce supply chain inefficiencies, challenge current trade agreements with certain nations, and affect the cost and availability of materials critical to our products. Any such tariffs, if and when enacted, and any further legislation or actions taken by the U.S. government that restrict trade, such as additional tariffs, trade barriers, and other protectionist or retaliatory measures could adversely impact our ability to sell products and services in our markets. Countries may, in response to any U.S. actions, adopt retaliatory or other protectionist measures that could further limit our ability to offer our products and services. The ultimate impact of any tariffs will depend on various factors, including if any tariffs are ultimately implemented, the timing of implementation, and the amount, scope, and nature of the tariffs.

In February 2026, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) were not authorized. In response to this ruling, we are pursuing the potential recovery of IEEPA tariffs previously paid and expect to submit claims through the administrative process administered by U.S. Customs and Border Protection for the refund of tariffs previously paid by the Company. The ruling did not address potential refunds, and therefore the ultimate availability, timing, and amount of the recovery of any potential refunds of these tariffs is highly uncertain and may be subject to further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any receivable or benefit related to these potential recoveries in its financial statements as of March 31, 2026 and will continue to monitor relevant developments and evaluate the recognition of such recoveries in future periods.

We believe global population growth, the growth of the global middle class and the productivity improvements needed due to limitations of arable land and water supplies have supported and will continue to support growth of the animal health industry.

Regulatory developments

In April 2016, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) began initial steps to withdraw approval of carbadox (the active ingredient in our Mecadox product) via a regulatory process known as a Notice of Opportunity for Hearing (“NOOH”), due to concerns that certain residues from the product may persist in animal tissues for longer than previously determined. In the years following, Phibro has continued an ongoing process of responding collaboratively and transparently to the FDA’s CVM inquiries and has provided extensive and meticulous research and data that confirmed the safety of carbadox. In July 2020, the FDA announced it would not proceed to a hearing on the scientific concerns raised in the 2016 NOOH, consistent with the normal regulatory procedure, but instead announced that it was withdrawing the 2016 NOOH and issuing a proposed order to review the regulatory method for carbadox. Phibro reiterated the safety of carbadox and the appropriateness of the regulatory method and offered to work with the CVM to generate additional data to support the existing regulatory method or select a suitable alternative regulatory method.

In March 2022, the FDA held a Part 15 virtual public hearing seeking data and information related to the safety of carbadox in which Phibro participated and again detailed the research and data that confirm the safety of carbadox. In November 2023, the FDA issued a final order to revoke the approved method for detecting carbadox residues. The FDA also provided notice in the Federal Register proposing to withdraw approval of all NADAs providing for use of carbadox in medicated swine feed and announcing an opportunity for Phibro to req

Armed conflicts

Israel and Hamas

On October 7, 2023, Hamas militants crossed into Israel from Gaza in a large-scale, surprise terrorist attack. Hamas terrorists invaded Israel, first firing rockets into the country and then carrying out attacks inflicting mass casualties with hundreds more taken hostage. In order to provide immediate assistance to the victims of the attacks and their families, we and our employees provided monetary donations that were distributed to charities that offered relief services, welfare, equipment, food and other necessities. Since the October 2023 attack, there have been continued and escalating hostilities along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon (with the Hezbollah terror organization) and southern border (with the Houthi movement in Yemen). Although a ceasefire was brokered between Israel and Hezbollah in November 2024, and in January 2025, and a temporary ceasefire went into effect between Israel and Hamas, hostilities in the region have recently resumed. The possibility of negotiations for renewed ceasefire agreements between Israel and Hamas, and Israel and Hezbollah remain uncertain and difficult to predict and until resolved, may continue to cause conflict in the region.

We have three manufacturing sites in Israel. A manufacturing plant in Neot Hovav that produces active pharmaceutical ingredients for certain of our anticoccidial and antimicrobial products, a facility in Beit Shemesh that produces vaccines and a plant in Petah Tikvah that manufactures premix products and nutritional products. In addition, we have an office location near Tel Aviv in Airport City. As of June 30, 2025, we had approximately 500 employees located in Israel. While we initially had some disruption to our operations at the onset of the Israel-Hamas conflict, at the current time, we have confidence in our ability to meet our supply commitment to customers and maintain sufficient inventory to continue regional support. Iran has threatened to continue to attack Israel. Iran is also believed to have a strong influence among extremist groups in the region, such as Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi movement in Yemen and various rebel militia groups in Syria and Iraq. While the situation surrounding the ongoing conflict remains fluid, our operations in Israel have navigated numerous challenging situations over the years.

The resumption, prolonged continuation or escalation of this conflict may trigger bans, economic and other sanctions, as well as broader military conflict, which could include neighboring nations and their respective allies. The potential impact of the current conflict, or escalation thereof, on our business is unclear but may include, without limitation, the possible disruption of our operations, particularly at our facilities in Israel, supply chain and logistics disruptions, personnel and raw material shortages, and other consequences, including as a result of the actions of, or disruption of the operations of, certain regulatory and governmental authorities and of certain of our suppliers, collaborative partners, licensees, manufacturing sites, distributors and customers. Our Israeli manufacturing facilities and local operations account for 16% of our consolidated assets as of June 30, 2025, and 17% of our consolidated net sales for the twelve months ended June 30, 2025.

Our sales to Russia and Ukraine for the twelve months ended June 30, 2025 represented approximately 1% of consolidated net sales.

We cannot know if the conflict could escalate and result in broader economic and security concerns that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Industry growth

We believe global population growth, the growth of the global middle class and the productivity improvements needed due to limitations of arable land and water supplies have supported and will continue to support growth of the animal health industry.

Regulatory developments

Our business depends heavily on a healthy and growing livestock industry. Some in the public perceive risks to human health related to the consumption of food derived from animals that utilize certain of our products, including certain of our MFA products. In particular, there is increased focus, in the United States and other countries, on the use of medically important antimicrobials. As defined by the FDA, medically important antimicrobials (“MIAs”) include classes that are prescribed in animal and human health and are listed in the Appendix of the FDA-CVM Guidance for Industry (GFI) 152. Our products that contain virginiamycin, oxytetracycline, neomycin, streptomycin, tiamulin, chlortetracycline, or sulfamethazine are classified by the FDA as medically important antimicrobials. In addition to the United States, the World Health Organization (WHO), the E.U., Australia and Canada have promulgated rating lists for antimicrobials that are used in veterinary medicine and that include certain of our products.

The classification of our products as MIAs or similar listings may lead to a decline in the demand for and production of food products derived from animals that utilize our products and, in turn, demand for our products. Livestock producers may experience decreased demand for their products or reputational harm as a result of evolving consumer views of nutrition and health-related concerns, animal rights and other concerns. Any reputational harm to the livestock industry may also extend to companies in related industries, including us. In addition, campaigns by interest groups, activists and others with respect to perceived risks associated with the use of our products in animals, including position statements by livestock producers and their customers based on non-use of certain medicated products in livestock production, whether or not scientifically-supported, could affect public perceptions and reduce the use of our products. Those adverse consumer views related to the use of one or more of our products in animals could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

In April 2016, the FDA began initial steps to withdraw approval of carbadox (the active ingredient in our Mecadox product) via a regulatory process known as a Notice of Opportunity for Hearing (“NOOH”), due to concerns that certain residues from the product may persist in animal tissues for longer than previously determined.
