Speaker #1: Please go
Speaker #1: ahead. Thank you so much, and congrats on the
Ekaterina Knyazkova: Thank you so much, and congrats on the results. So first question is just on gross margins. Obviously, a very strong number this quarter. You've touched upon this, but what are the main drivers of this, and how much is mix, or anything potentially one time in there? And how should we think about gross margins over the next two quarters? And then second, bigger picture question, just on the guidance update, can you just elaborate a bit, what's kind of, you know, doing better than expected as you kinda think about the EPS and the EBITDA, upside? How much of this is Phibro Forward versus mix versus commercial execution versus, anything else? Thank you.
Ekaterina Knyazkova: Thank you so much, and congrats on the results. So first question is just on gross margins. Obviously, a very strong number this quarter.

Speaker #3: of this, and how much is there? And how should we think about gross margins over the next two quarters? And then second bigger picture question just on the guidance update: can you just of doing better than expected as you kind of think elaborate a bit what's kind EBITDA upside?
Speaker #3: How much of this is PHIBRO forward versus mixed versus commercial execution you.
Glenn David: Sure. Thanks for the question, Ekaterina. So in terms of the gross margin, there are a number of factors that are driving it, you know, particularly in this quarter and also on a, on a year-to-date basis as well. So, A, we've been successful in taking additional price, particularly on the Zoetis portfolio, which, you know, has exceeded our expectations and helps drive improved margin. We've also seen very positive mix. You know, we continue to see strong performance in our nutritional specialties and our vaccine products, which do come in at a higher margin as well. So really strong mix, strong price, and strong overall performance, and also just a focus internally on driving growth on the higher margin products as well has helped.
Glenn David: Sure. Thanks for the question, Ekaterina. So in terms of the gross margin, there are a number of factors that are driving it, you know, particularly in this quarter and also on a, on a year-to-date basis as well.

So really strong mix, strong price, and strong overall performance, and also just a focus internally on driving growth on the higher margin products as well has helped.
Speaker #4: Thanks particularly in this quarter. And also on a year-to-date basis as well. So A, we've been successful in taking additional price, particularly on the Zoetis portfolio, which has exceeded our versus anything else?
Speaker #4: for the question, Ekaterina. So in terms of the gross margin, there are a number of Sure. factors that are driving it,
Speaker #4: expectations and helps drive improved
Speaker #4: margin. We've also seen very Thank positive mix; we continue to see specialties and our vaccine products, which do strong performance in our nutritional margin as well.
Speaker #4: So really strong mix, strong price, and strong overall performance. And also just a focus internally on driving growth on the higher margin products as well has helped.
Speaker #4: In the quarter in particular, I think I mentioned in last quarter's call that we should have some returns coming as part of our transition from what we call tier three markets to tier one markets.
Glenn David: In the quarter, in particular, you know, I think I mentioned in last quarter's call that we should have some returns coming as part of our transition from what we call Tier three markets to Tier one markets. Those returns came at full cost, so the price of sales and the price of cost was the same. So that partially elevated the gross margin as well for that quarter, but that's less than, you know, call it 100 basis points. But overall, really strong underlying performance from a gross margin perspective. And from an EPS and guidance perspective, a number of factors that have driven, you know, the positive view that we have for the rest of the year.

Speaker #4: But overall, really strong underlying performance from a gross margin perspective. And from an EPS and guidance perspective, a number of factors that have driven the positive view that we have for the rest of the year.
Speaker #4: A, strong revenue performance, as I mentioned, really strong performance in our acquired portfolio, really exceeding our expectations in how we're performing there. And our ability to staff or resources to support the new business as well has continued to perform positively.
Glenn David: A strong revenue performance, as I mentioned, a really strong performance in our acquired portfolio, really exceeding our expectations in how we're performing there, and our ability to leverage our existing infrastructure without building, you know, quite as much additional staff or resources to support the new business as well, has continued to perform positively. And the improved mix that we mentioned as well, that helps us for the full year guidance as well. So a lot of factors that are going in the right direction and helping our performance for the first half of the year, but also for our guidance for the full year.

[Analyst] (Bank of America): Hi, this is Alexa on for Mike. Thank you so much for taking our question. I was wondering about if you could talk about the impact of the customer timing on the MFA business. If you could give any details on what happened there and if it will slip into Q3? And, how should we think about the legacy MFA business, Zoetis MFA, and those normalized growth rates going forward for both businesses, given some of the lumpiness in recent quarters? And then I have a follow-up question. Thank you.
Alexa Morin: Hi, this is Alexa on for Mike. Thank you so much for taking our question. I was wondering about if you could talk about the impact of the customer timing on the MFA business.

Speaker #5: much for taking our question. I was wondering about if you could talk about the impact of the customer timing on the MFA business. If you could give any details on what happened there and if it will slip into 3Q.
Speaker #5: And how should we think about the you. you. Thank you so
Speaker #5: legacy MFA business and Zoetis MFA and those normalized growth rates going forward for both businesses given some of the lumpiness in the recent quarters?
Speaker #4: Because
Glenn David: Okay, sure. So in terms of the customer timing that we mentioned for the legacy of MFA business, that's one customer that we do a significant amount of business for. They hold different inventory levels at different times, so sometimes within a quarter, we'll have pretty significant fluctuations. That ends up varying throughout the year and evening out through the year. It was roughly $10 million in this quarter. We do expect it to improve as we move into the next quarter, so we don't expect that significant negative hit as we move into the second half of the year. In terms of the legacy MFA and Zoetis MFA, you know, as we move into the second half of the year, we'll have a full comparative, right? So this is the last quarter where we sort of had a partial-...

Speaker #4: million in this quarter. We do expect it to Thank improve as we move into the next quarter, so we don't expect that significant negative hit.
Speaker #4: As we move into the second half of the year. legacy MFA and the Zoetis In terms of the MFA, as we move into the second half of the year, we'll have a full comparative, right?
Speaker #4: So this is the last quarter where we sort of had a partial quarter of the previous year. So as we move into the second half, we'll have a full comparative of both the legacy portfolio as well as the recently acquired portfolio, which will obviously slow about for the long term is we growth.
Glenn David: quarter of the previous year. So as we move into the second half, we'll have a full comparative, both the legacy portfolio as well as the recently acquired portfolio, which will obviously slow growth. And you know, I think what we talked about for the long term is we expect you know, this business to grow sort of in the low to mid single digits. You know, with the strength that we have from a field force perspective and technical expertise, we'll look to drive that greater. But overall, you know, we expect this business to be a low to mid single digit growth business.
Glenn David: quarter of the previous year.

Speaker #4: But overall, we expect this business to be a low to mid single digit growth business.
Speaker #5: Okay, got it. Thank you. That's super helpful. And then my follow-up question is on end markets. They've been really favorable in livestock in recent quarters, with very strong results.
[Analyst] (Bank of America): Okay, got it. Thank you. That's super helpful. And then my follow-up question is on end markets. So they've been really favorable in livestock in recent quarters with very strong results. Can you just talk about how sustainable this is versus it being a cyclical upswing? Yeah, thank you.
Alexa Morin: Okay, got it. Thank you. That's super helpful. And then my follow-up question is on end markets. So they've been really favorable in livestock in recent quarters with very strong results. Can you just talk about how sustainable this is versus it being a cyclical upswing? Yeah, thank you.
Speaker #5: Can you just talk about how sustainable this is versus it being a cyclical upswing? Thank
Speaker #5: You. Yeah, Larry, you want to—
Glenn David: Yeah, Larry, you want to address the protein markets and the sustainability?
Glenn David: Yeah, Larry, you want to address the protein markets and the sustainability?
Speaker #4: address the protein markets and the sustainability?
Speaker #6: Yeah, sure. Thanks for the question. So the demand for high-quality clean proteins continues to be very strong. And we see benefits for that, particularly in our beef sector, our chicken, broiler sector, pork, turkey, dairy, and also for eggs.
Larry Miller: Yeah, sure. Thanks for the question. So, the demand for high quality clean proteins continues to be very strong, and we see benefits for that, particularly in our beef sector, our chicken broiler sector, pork, turkey, dairy, and also for eggs. We certainly see continued favorable feed costs, which is obviously the largest input cost of producing animals, and that's helping to maintain margins. We'll probably expect to see a little bit of some shift, you know, in trade between certain countries, which is sometimes driven by tariffs and also some disease outbreaks.
Larry Miller: Yeah, sure. Thanks for the question. So, the demand for high quality clean proteins continues to be very strong, and we see benefits for that, particularly in our beef sector, our chicken broiler sector, pork, turkey, dairy, and also for eggs.

We'll probably see expect to see a little bit of some shift in trade between certain countries which is sometimes driven by tariffs and also some disease outbreaks.
Speaker #6: But I want to emphasize, we really feel good about our diversification amongst our livestock species, as well as geographic presence in all the key global livestock production markets.
Larry Miller: But I want to emphasize, we really feel good about our diversification among our livestock species, as well as geographic presence in all the key global livestock production markets, including many markets which are increasing their domestic production to be more food secure and less reliant on imports. Our diversity has certainly been enhanced with the MFA acquisition.

Speaker #6: Including many markets which are increasing their domestic production to be more food secure and less reliant on imports. Our diversity has certainly been enhanced with the MFA acquisition.
Speaker #5: Great. Thank you. And if I can just ask one quick follow-up, on the MFA business again, I want to talk about share gains; are you taking share from others given the stronger combined portfolio?
[Analyst] (Bank of America): Great. Thank you. And if I can just ask one quick follow-up, on the MFA business again. I want to talk about share gains. Are you taking share from others, given the stronger combined portfolio? And, that's my final question, and thank you, and congrats on the great results.

Speaker #4: You. So, Larry, you want to address the share?
Glenn David: Thank you. So Larry, you want to address the share gains?
Glenn David: Thank you. So Larry, you want to address the share gains?
Speaker #4: Gains? So, I would say that we in
Larry Miller: So I would say that we, in the quarter, in the first half, we've certainly seen strong performance in our poultry anticoccidial range. We're able to offer a much more complete portfolio of offerings, particularly in broiler coccidiosis management. Often people, you know, change and rotate every few months on these, so it's allowed us to have, you know, more opportunities to participate in those anticoccidial programs. We've also seen good growth in our swine enteritis business.

Navann Ty: Good morning. Thanks for taking my questions. Just what drove the outperformance of the Zoetis MFA portfolio specifically, and a clarification on the legacy one. So should we expect $10 million in to come back in Q3, just to make sure? And then I'll have a follow-up. Thank you.
Navann Ty: Good morning. Thanks for taking my questions. Just what drove the outperformance of the Zoetis MFA portfolio specifically, and a clarification on the legacy one. So should we expect $10 million in to come back in Q3, just to make sure? And then I'll have a follow-up. Thank you.
Speaker #7: So should we expect the $10 million in to come back in Q3? Just to make sure. And then I'll have a follow-up. Thank
Speaker #7: you. Yeah.
Speaker #4: So just in terms of the legacy business and the negative impact to the quarter, we will expect that to come back in the second half of the year.
Glenn David: Yes, so just in terms of the legacy business and the negative impact to the quarter, we will expect that to come back in the second half of the year. Well, how much of it comes between Q3 and Q4? That'll depend on the orders that we receive, but we do expect it to come back within the second half of the year. I'll start on the drivers of the Zoetis MFA, but Larry, you know, if you could add as well in terms of the outperformance. You know, I think, A, it's been tremendous execution from the team in terms of the integration. We've built a very strong team that's been, you know, extremely effective in their interactions with our customers.

Speaker #4: We built a very strong team that's been extremely effective in their interactions with our customers. We have been able to take share on some particular products.
Glenn David: We have been able to take share on some, you know, particular products in the marketplace as we continue to gain momentum, and we expect that, you know, hopefully to continue as well. But Larry, I don't know if you have additional things to add on, the Zoetis MFA outperformance.
Glenn David: We have been able to take share on some, you know, particular products in the marketplace as we continue to gain momentum, and we expect that, you know, hopefully to continue as well. But Larry, I don't know if you have additional things to add on, the Zoetis MFA outperformance.
Speaker #4: In the marketplace, as we continue to gain momentum and we expect that hopefully to continue as well. But Larry, I don't know if you have additional things to add on the Zoetis MFA outperformance.
Speaker #6: I think our team has done a really good job of focusing on these. We've had a lot of shifts, particularly in the segments: people are customers are growing animals to larger heavier harvest weights.
Larry Miller: You know, I think our team has done a really good job of focusing on these. We've had a lot of shifts, particularly in the segments. Our customers are growing animals to larger, heavier harvest weights. And so that's changing some of the dynamics that they have to deal with. Our team is really doing a great job in promoting and reminding customers of the indications and claims that we have for these new products, and how those fit some of these trends and challenges of feeding animals longer. So, you know, we're really seeing good receptivity from our customers. Obviously, the value of animals are at historic highs, so customers are very interested in investing to protect their animals, to keep them healthy.

Speaker #6: So customers are very interested in investing to protect their animals, to keep them healthy. And healthier animals obviously are more efficient. And help optimize the margin and opportunities for returns.
Larry Miller: And healthier animals obviously are more efficient and help optimize the margin and opportunities for returns. Jack and Donnie talked about our presence at the International Poultry and Egg conference last week in Atlanta. I'm actually at the National Cattlemen's Beef Association right now in Nashville, where we're able to have presence, you know, in the trade show and in a lot of the activities here. And we're meeting a lot of great customers here that are in the beef production segment. And I have to say, their interest in these products, how they can fit and help them solve the challenges they're facing, really are excited to see us with representing these products, owning these products, and investing in these products.
