Note 1 – Out of Period Adjustments

During the third quarter of 2007, the Company identified errors of a cumulative $993 overstatement of its consolidated income tax expense for the years 2004, 2005 and 2006. These errors were related to the deferred tax accounting for the Company’s foreign pension plans and intangible assets regarding one of the Company’s 2002 acquisitions. The Company corrected these errors during the third quarter 2007, which had the effect of reducing tax expense by $993, and increasing net income by $993 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. The Company does not believe this adjustment is material to the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 or 2006, or to our projected results for the current year, and as a result, has not restated any prior period amounts. As the Company’s assessment was based on projected full year 2007 results, the Company will update its assessment at year-end based upon actual 2007 results.

Note 43 – Uncertain Income Tax Positions

The Company adoptedIn June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”),. FIN 48 prescribes the recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. FIN 48 requires the determination of whether the benefits of tax positions will be more likely than not sustained upon audit based upon the technical merits of the tax position. For tax positions that are determined to be more likely than not sustained upon audit, a company recognizes the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. For tax positions that are not determined to be more likely than not sustained upon audit, a company does not recognize any portion of the benefit in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, penalties and interest, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48, effective January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation, the Company recognized a $5,503 increase to reserves for uncertain tax positions. This increase was accounted for as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings on the Balance Sheet. Including the cumulative effect increase, at the beginning of

Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“SFAS 157”),Fair Value Measurement.Subsequently, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 157-1 and FSP 157-2, which provided exceptions to applying the guidance to leasing transactions and to non-recurring nonfinancial assets and liabilities.Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. Non-recurring nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities for which we have not applied the provisions of SFAS 157 include those measured at fair value in goodwill impairment testing, indefinite lived intangible assets measured at fair value for impairment testing, asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value, and those initially measured at fair value in a business combination. SFAS 157 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to U.S. GAAP guidance requiring use of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. This standard does not anticipaterequire any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.

Note 5 – Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, theThe Company adoptedapplies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004) (“SFAS 123(R)”),Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R123(R) requires the recognition of the fair value of stock compensation in net income. The Company elected the modified prospective method in adopting SFAS 123R.123(R). Under this method, the provisions of SFAS 123R123(R) apply to all awards granted or modified after the date of adoption. In addition, the unrecognized expense of awards not yet vested at the date of adoption is recognized in net income in the periods after the date of adoption using the same valuation method (e.g. Black-Scholes) and assumptions determined under the original provisions of SFAS 123, “ Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as disclosed in the Company’s previous filings.

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for employee stock option grants using the intrinsic method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 “ Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees .” As such, no compensation cost was recognized for employee stock options that had exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our common stock at the date of granting the option. The Company also complied with the pro forma disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 “ Accounting for Stock Based Compensation ,” and SFAS No. 148 “ Accounting for Stock–Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure .”

The Company recognized approximately $863$376 of share-based compensation expense and $302$132 of related tax benefits in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2007.March 31, 2008. The compensation expense was comprised of $304$137 related to stock options, $437$198 related to nonvested stock awards, $30$11 related to the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and $92$30 related to the Company’s Director Stock Ownership Plan.

Approximately $73 of the amount of compensation cost recognized in 2006 for stock option awards reflects amortization relating to the remaining unvested portion of stock option awards granted prior to January 1, 2006. The estimated fair value of the options granted during prior years was calculated using a Black-Scholes model. The Black-Scholes model incorporates assumptions to value stock-based awards. The Company will continue to use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value share-based awards. The estimated fair value of the Company’s share-based awards is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards. The risk-free rate of interest for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on U.S. Government Securities Treasury Constant Maturities over the contractual term of the equity instrument. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company uses historical data on exercise timing to determine the expected life assumption. The assumptions used for stock option grants made in the first quarter of 2005 include the following: dividend yield of 3.4%, expected volatility of 22.6%, risk-free interest rate of 3.9%, an expected life of 5 years, and a forfeiture rate of 8% over the remaining life of these options.

Based on our historical experience, we have assumed a forfeiture rate of 13% on the nonvested stock. Under the true-up provisions of SFAS 123R, we will record additional expense if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than we estimated, and we will record a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture is higher than we estimated.

The adoption of SFAS 123R had an impact of $66 and $156 due to the accrual of compensation expense on the unvested stock options for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006.

The Company has a long-term incentive program (“LTIP”) for key employees which provides for the granting of options to purchase stock at prices not less than market value on the date of the grant. Most options become exercisable between one and three years after the date of the grant for a period of time determined by the Company not to exceed seven years from the date of grant for options issued in 1999 or later and ten years for options issued in prior years. Beginning in 1999, the LTIP program provided for common stock awards, the value of which was generally determined based onderived from Company performance over a two to five-yearthree-year period. Common stock awards issued in 2006, 2007 and 20072008 under the LTIP program are subject only to time vesting over a twothree to five-year period. In addition, as part of the Company’s Global Annual Incentive Plan (“GAIP”), nonvested shares may be issued to key employees.employees, which generally vest over a two to five-year period.

Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies

In April of 1992, the Company identified certain soil and groundwater contamination at AC Products, Inc. (“ACP”), a wholly owned subsidiary. In voluntary coordination with the Santa Ana California Regional Water Quality Board, ACP has been remediating the contamination, the principal contaminant of which is perchloroethylene (“PERC”). On or about December 18, 2004, the Orange County Water District (“OCWD”) filed a civil complaint in Superior Court, in Orange County, California against ACP and other parties potentially responsible for groundwater contamination. OCWD was seeking to recover compensatory and other damages related to the investigation and remediation of the contamination in the groundwater. Effective October 17, 2007, ACP and OCWD settled all claims related to this litigation. Pursuant to the settlement agreement with OCWD, ACP agreed to pay $2.0 million$2,000 in two equal paymentsinstallments of $1.0 million$1,000 (the first payment being dueinstallment paid October 31, 2007 and the second payment being dueinstallment paid on February 15, 2008). In addition to the $2.0 million$2,000 payment, ACP agreed to operate the two existing groundwater treatment systems associated with its extraction wells P-2 and P-3 so as to hydraulically contain groundwater contamination emanating from ACP'sACP’s site until such time as the concentrations of PERC are below the Federal maximum contaminant level for four consecutive quarterly sampling events. During the third quarter of 2007, the Company recognized a $3.3 million$3,300 charge made up of $2.0 million$2,000 for the settlement of the litigation, plus an increase in its reserve for its soil and water remediation program by $1.3 million. Theof $1,300. As of March 31, 2008, the Company believes that the range of potential-known liabilities associated with ACP contamination, including amounts owed to OCWD pursuant to the settlement and estimated future costs of the water and soil remediation program, is approximately $4.75 million$2,400 to $6.6 million,$4,400, for which the Company has sufficient reserves.

The low and high ends of the range are based on the length of operation of the two extraction wells as determined by groundwater modeling with planned higher maintenance costs in later years if a longer treatment period is required. Costs of operation include the operation and maintenance of the extraction wells, groundwater monitoring, one-time expenses to insure P-3 is hydraulically containing the PERC plume and program management. The duration of the well operation was estimated based on historical trends in concentrations in the monitoring wells within the proximity of the applicable extraction wells. Also factored into the model was the impact of water injected into the underground aquifer from a planned recharge basin adjacent to the ACP site, as well as from an injection well to be installed and operated by OCWD as part of the groundwater treatment system for contaminants which are the subject of the aforementioned litigation. Based on the modeling, it is estimated that P-2 will operate for three and half years to up to five years and P-3 will operate for six years to up to nine years. Operation and maintenance costs were based on historical expenditures and estimated inflation. As mentioned above, a significantly higher maintenance expense was factored into the range if the system operates for the longer period. Also included in the reserve are anticipated expenditures to operate an on-site soil vapor extraction systemsystem.

The Company believes, although there can be no assurance regarding the outcome of other unrelated environmental matters, that it has made adequate accruals for costs associated with other environmental problems of which it is aware. Approximately $99 and amounts owed in basin fees$159 was accrued at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, to provide for extracted water.

such anticipated future environmental assessments and remediation costs.

An inactive subsidiary of the Company that was acquired in 1978 sold certain products containing asbestos, primarily on an installed basis, and is among the defendants in numerous lawsuits alleging injury due to exposure to asbestos. The subsidiary discontinued operations in 1991 and has no remaining assets other than the proceeds from insurance settlements received in late 2005 and early in the second quarter of 2007.received. To date, the overwhelming majority of these claims have been disposed of without payment and there have been no adverse judgments against the subsidiary. Based on a continued analysis of the existing and anticipated future claims against this subsidiary, it is currently projected that the subsidiary’s total liability over the next 50 years for these claims is approximately $12,700$13,800 (excluding costs of defense). Although the Company has also been named as a defendant in certain of these cases, no claims have been actively pursued against the Company, and the Company has not contributed to the defense or settlement of any of these cases pursued against the subsidiary. These cases were handled by the subsidiary’s primary and excess insurers who had agreed in 1997 to pay all defense costs and be responsible for all damages assessed against the subsidiary arising out of existing and future asbestos claims up to the aggregate limits of the policies. A significant portion of this primary insurance coverage was provided by an insurer that is now insolvent, and the other primary insurers have asserted that the aggregate limits of their policies have been exhausted. The subsidiary has challenged the applicability of these limits to the claims being brought against the subsidiary. In response to this challenge, two of the three carriers entered into separate settlement and release agreements with the subsidiary in late 2005 and in the first quarter of 2007 for $15,000 and $20,000, respectively. The payments under the latest settlement and release agreement are structured to be received over a four-year period with annual installments of $5,000, the first of which was received early in the second quarter of 2007.2007 and the second of

which was received in the first quarter of 2008. The subsequent installments are contingent upon whether or not Federal asbestos legislation is adopted by the due date of each annual installment. If Federal asbestos legislation is so enacted and such legislation eliminates the carrier’s obligation to make the installment payment and requires the carrier to contribute into a trust or similar vehicle as a result of the policies issued to the subsidiary, then the insurance carrier’s obligation to make the subsequent installments will be cancelled. The proceeds of both settlements are restricted and can only be used to pay claims and costs of defense associated with the subsidiary’s asbestos litigation. During the third quarter of 2007, the subsidiary and the remaining primary insurance carrier entered into a Claim Handling and Funding Agreement, under which the carrier will pay 27% of defense and indemnity costs incurred by or on behalf of the subsidiary in connection with asbestos bodily injury claims for a minimum of five years beginning July 1, 2007. At the end of the term of the agreement, the subsidiary may choose to again pursue its claim against this insurer regarding the application of the policy limits. The Company also believes, that if the coverage issues under the primary policies with the remaining carrier are resolved adversely to the subsidiary and all settlement proceeds were used, the subsidiary may have limited additional coverage from a state guarantee fund established following the insolvency of one of the subsidiary’s primary insurers. Nevertheless, liabilities in respect of claims may exceed the assets and coverage available to the subsidiary. See also Notes 16 and 17 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements filed with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

If the subsidiary’s assets and insurance coverage were to be exhausted, claimants of the subsidiary may actively pursue claims against the Company because of the parent-subsidiary relationship. Although asbestos litigation is particularly difficult to predict, especially with respect to claims that are currently not being actively pursued against the Company, the Company does not believe that such claims would have merit or that the Company would be held to have liability for any unsatisfied obligations of the subsidiary as a result of such claims. After evaluating the nature of the claims filed against the subsidiary and the small number of such claims that have resulted in any payment, the potential availability of additional insurance coverage at the subsidiary level, the additional availability of the Company’s own insurance and the Company’s strong defenses to claims that it should be held responsible for the subsidiary’s obligations because of the parent-subsidiary relationship, the Company believes it is not probable that the Company will incur any material losses. All of the asbestos cases pursued against the Company challenging the parent-subsidiary relationship are in the early stages of litigation. The Company has been successful in the past having claims naming it dismissed during initial proceedings. Since the Company may be in this early stage of litigation for some time, it is not possible to estimate additional losses or range of loss, if any.

The Company believes, although there can be no assurance regarding the outcome of other unrelated environmental matters, that it has made adequate accruals for costs associated with other environmental problems of which it is aware. Approximately $159 and $134 was accrued at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, to provide for such anticipated future environmental assessments and remediation costs. The Company is party to other litigation which management currently believes will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

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

Executive Summary

Quaker Chemical Corporation is a worldwide developer, producer, and marketer of chemical specialty products and a provider of chemical management services (“CMS”) for various heavy industrial and manufacturing applications around the globe with significant sales to the steel and automotive industries.

The revenue growth in the thirdfirst quarter of 20072008 was primarily due to increased selling prices, higher volumes in Asia/Pacific, Europe and North America and increased selling prices.foreign markets, as well as higher CMS revenues were higher due to the 2007 renewal and renegotiation of several of the Company’s contracts earlier in the year.contracts. Higher selling prices combined with improved CMS profitability, helped to partially offset higher raw material and third-party finished product costs resulting in significantly highera 13.2% increase in gross margin dollars but with a decrease in gross margin as a percentage of sales as compared to the thirdfirst quarter of 2006. Nevertheless, the Company has been able to maintain its margins on a sequential basis throughout 2007. Raw material costs continue to be higher as compared to the prior year and have beencontinued to increase steadily rising throughout the year. Factors impacting higherand significantly thus far in 2008. The Company’s selling, general and administrative costs in the third quarter include continued expansion into Asia/Pacific, higher commissionsexpenses as a resultpercentage of higher earnings, as well as unfavorable foreign exchange.

The thirdsales declined to 23.3% for the first quarter of 2007 included some unusual items as well. A $3.3 million environmental charge was taken in part related2008 compared to the settlement of environmental litigation involving AC Products, Inc. (“ACP”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Quaker, as well as additional costs25.6% for the estimated future remediation costs. Two charges totaling $1.2 million were also taken relating to certain customer bankruptcies and a discontinued strategic initiative. The tax benefit recorded in the thirdfirst quarter of 2007 includes a $0.7 million refund of taxes in China as a result of the Company’s increased investment2007. Inflationary cost increases were largely offset by lower legal and includes a non-cash out-of-period tax benefit adjustment of $1.0 million related to certain deferred tax items.environmental costs and lower incentive compensation expense.

The net result was $0.31a considerable improvement in earnings per diluted share of $0.50 for the thirdfirst quarter of 20072008, compared to $0.32 per diluted share$0.35 for the thirdfirst quarter of 2006.

2007. Notwithstanding the Company’s improved performance, the continued strength of the business environment is subject to limited visibility due to continued raw material price volatility and an uncertain global economic environment. With crude oil above $90in excess of $100 per barrel and animal fats and vegetable oils impacted by increased biodiesel production,consumption, raw materialsmaterial prices continue to be a challenge. Any improvement in gross margin as a percentage of sales will depend in part upon a sustained period of stable or declining raw material costs. With the settlement of the ACP environmental litigation, legal and environmental costs should decline in the future. The Company will remain focused on pursuing revenue opportunities, managing its raw material and other costs, and pursuing pricing initiatives.

Notwithstanding the Company’s performance, continued strength of the business environment is subject to limited visibility. While demand is generally expected to remain strong,stable, volume in certain markets was limited by customer end-market issues, including reduced vehicle sales experienced by some automotive customers and reduced steel usage,demand, particularly in the U.S.North America. The Company will remain focused on pursuing revenue opportunities, managing its raw material and other costs, and pursuing pricing initiatives.

CMS Discussion

DuringIn 2003, the Company expanded its approach to its chemical management services (CMS) channel consistent with the Company’s strategic imperative to sell customer solutions—value—not just fluids. Prior to this change, the Company effectively acted as an agent whereby it purchased chemicals from other companies and resold the product to the customer at little or no margin and earned a set management fee for providing this service. Therefore, the profit earned on the management fee was relatively secure as the entire cost of the products was passed on to the customer. The approach taken in 2003 was dramatically different. The Company began entering into new contracts under which it receives a set management fee and the costs that relate to those management fees were and are largely dependent on how well the Company controls product costs and achieves product conversions from other third-party suppliers to its own products. This approach came with new risks and opportunities, as the profit earned from the management fee is subject to movements in product costs as well as the Company’s own performance. The Company believes this expanded approach is a way for Quaker to become an integral part of our customers’ operational efforts to improve manufacturing costs and to demonstrate value that the Company would not be able to demonstrate as purely a product provider.

Under this alternative pricing structure,Consistent with the foregoing approach, the Company was awarded a series of multi-year CMS contracts, primarily at General Motors Powertrain, DaimlerChryslerChrysler and Ford manufacturing sites over the last several years. This business was an important step in building the Company’s share and leadership position in the automotive process fluids market and has positioned the Company well for penetration of CMS opportunities in other metalworking manufacturing sites. This alternative approach had a dramatic impact on the Company’s revenue and margins. Under the traditional CMS approach, where the Company effectively acts as an agent, revenues and costs from these sales are reported on a net sales or “pass-through” basis. As discussed above, theThe alternative structure is different in that the Company’s revenue received from the customer is a fee for products and services provided to the customer, which are indirectly related to the actual costs incurred. As a result, the Company recognizes in the alternative structure in reported revenues the gross revenue received from the CMS site customer, and in cost of goods sold the third-party product purchases, which substantially offset each other until the Company achieves significant product conversions. As some contracts have been renewed or renegotiated, some of the contracts have reverted to a “pass-through” basis, while others have remained on a gross basis. Currently, the Company

has a mix of contracts with both the traditional product pass-through structure and fixed priced contracts covering all services and products. The Company’s offerings will continue to include both approaches to CMS depending on customer requirements and business circumstances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Quaker’s cash and cash equivalents increased to $24.2$20.5 million at September 30, 2007March 31, 2008 from $16.1$20.2 million at December 31, 2006.2007. The increase resulted primarily from $16.4$6.2 million of cash provided byused in operating activities, offset in part by, $5.5$2.7 million of cash used in investing activities, and $3.9offset by $8.5 million of cash used inprovided by financing activities.

Net cash flows provided byused in operating activities were $16.4$6.2 million for the first three months of 2008, compared to $3.4$5.0 million infor the same periodfirst three months of 2006.2007. The increased use of cash flow was largely due to lower working capital requirements in 2007 compared to 2006. Although higher sales levels, raw material costs, andan increased business from our CMS channel require incremental investmentsinvestment in working capital compared to the prior year period. The Company has made significant progress around the globe at slowingremains focused on limiting the pace of such increased investments.its investment in working capital. Significant factors impacting the working capital accounts for the first three months of 2008 include the first quarter payment of the Company’s annual incentive compensation, as well as the final $1.0 million payment pursuant to the settlement agreement with AC Products, Inc., a

wholly owned subsidiary and the Orange County Water District. See also Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, the Company’s higher net income higher depreciation and the 2006 completion of all restructuring activities were also significant factors in thewas largely offset by increased cash flow from operating activities. Largely due to the improvements in working capital balances, operating cash flow improved $19.3 million during the third quarter of 2007pension contributions compared to the first halfprior year. In 2007, the Company received a refund of 2007.pension premiums attributable to one of its foreign pension plans.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $5.5$2.7 million infor the first ninethree months of 2007,2008, compared to $9.3$3.5 million used in investing activities for the same periodfirst three months of 2006.2007. The decreased use of cash was primarily due to lower capital expenditures as a result of reduced capital expansion and replacement activities in North America, Europe and Asia/Pacific. Also contributingrelated to the decreased use of cash was higher cash inflow from the Company’s below described restricted cash of $1.0 million relating to asbestos costs of an inactive subsidiary of the Company. This cash inflow is equally offset as an outflow of cashmanufacturing facility in cash flows from operating activities as the inactive subsidiary makes payments for claims and costs of defense in accordance with settlement and release agreements. Also contributing to the change in investing cash flows are higher payments related to acquisitions in the first nine months of 2007.China. In the first quarter of 2007,2008, the Company made the secondthird of four annual payments of $1.0 million related to the 2005 acquisition of the remaining 40% interest in its Brazilian joint venture. In addition, the second quarter of 2007, the Company’s Q2 Technologies (“Q2T”) joint venture acquired the hydrogen sulfide and natural gas field business of Frontier Research and Chemicals Company, Inc., for $0.5 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $3.9 million for the first nine months of 2007 compared tofour annual $5.0 million of cash provided by financing activities for the first nine months of 2006. The decreasepayments was caused primarily by greater borrowingsreceived in the prior year used to fund the Company’s working capital needs, as well as the restructuring actions taken in the fourth quarter of 2005. In the first nine months of 2007, the Company experienced a high level of stock option exercises compared to the prior year, which contributed to the change in net cash flows from financing activities.

In the first quarter of 2008 pursuant to the settlement agreement and release entered into during the first quarter of 2007 by an inactive subsidiary of the Company reached a settlement agreement and release with one of its insurance carriers for $20.0 million. Thecarriers. These proceeds of the settlement are restricted and can only be used to pay claims and costs of defense associated with thisthe subsidiary’s asbestos litigation. The payments are structured to be received over a four-year period with annual installments of $5.0 million, the first of which was received early in the second quarter of 2007. The subsequent installments are contingent upon whether or not Federal asbestos legislation is adopted by the due date of each annual installment. If Federal asbestos legislation is so enacted, and such legislation eliminates the carrier’s obligation the make the installment payment and requires the carrier to contribute into a trust or similar vehicle as a result of the policies issued to the subsidiary, then the insurance carrier’s obligation to make the subsequent installments will be cancelled. During

Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $8.5 million for the thirdfirst three months of 2008, as compared to $3.2 million of cash provided by financing activities in the first three months of 2007. The increase was caused primarily by greater borrowings in 2008 used to fund the Company’s working capital needs and first quarter of 2007, the same inactive subsidiary and one of its insurance carriers entered into a Claim Handling and Funding Agreement, under which the carrier will pay 27% percentpayment of the defense and indemnity costs incurred by or on behalf of the subsidiary in connection with asbestos bodily injury claims for a minimum of five years beginning July 1, 2007. See also Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ACP entered into a settlement agreement with the Orange County Water District, effective October 17, 2007, relating to environmental litigation initiated in late 2004. In the third quarter of 2007, the Company recorded a $3.3 million charge to cover a payment of $2.0 million in settlement of the litigation, and $1.3 million of increased reserves for its future expenditures for soil and water remediation program. See also Note 12 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Company’s annual incentive compensation.

The Company had a net debt-to-total-capital ratio of 36%34% at September 30, 2007,March 31, 2008, compared to 40%43% at March 31, 2007 and 32% at December 31, 2006.2007. At September 30, 2007,March 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $81.4$84.4 million outstanding on its credit lines, compared to $79.2$73.8 million at December 31, 2006. In the third quarter of 2007, the Company entered into a second amendment to its syndicated multicurrency credit agreement. The amendment increased the maximum principal amount available for revolving credit borrowings from $100.0 million to $125.0 million, which can be increased to $175.0 million at the Company’s option if the lenders agree to increase their commitments and the Company satisfies certain conditions. The amendment also extended the maturity date of the credit facility from 2010 to 2012. In connection with the first quarter 2007 adoption of FIN 48, the Company recorded a non-cash charge to shareholders’ equity of $5.5 million, which negatively impacted the Company’s net debt-to-total-capital ratio by approximately one percentage point.2007. At September 30, 2007,March 31, 2008, the Company’s gross FIN 48 liability, including accruedpenalties and interest, and penalties was $12.0$14.2 million. The Company cannot determine a reliable estimate of the timing of the cash flows by period related to its FIN 48 liability. However, should

the FIN 48 liability be paid, the amount of the payment may be reduced by $4.2 million as a result of offsetting benefits in other tax jurisdictions.jurisdictions by $5.2 million. The Company believes it is capable of supporting its operating requirements, including pension plan contributions, payment of dividends to shareholders, possible acquisitions and business opportunities, capital expenditures and possible resolution of contingencies, through internally generated funds supplemented with debt as needed.

Operations

Comparison of ThirdFirst Quarter 20072008 with ThirdFirst Quarter 2006of 2007

Net sales for the thirdfirst quarter were $140.7$147.7 million, up 20.9%, compared to $116.418.3% from $124.9 million for the thirdfirst quarter 2006.2007. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to a combination of volume growth, and higher sales prices.prices and foreign exchange rate translation. Volume growth was mainly due to strong sales growthrealized in Asia/Pacific, Europe and North America, as well asvirtually all the Company’s regions, including higher revenue related to the Company’s CMS channel. Foreign exchange rate translation increased revenues by approximately 5%8% for the thirdfirst quarter 2007,of 2008, compared to the same period in 2006.2007. Selling price increases were realized, across all regions and market segments, in part as a result of an ongoing effort to offset higher raw material costs. CMS revenues were higher due to the full year impact of additional CMS accounts andgained in 2007, as well as the first quarter 2007 renewal and renegotiationrestructuring of several of the Company’s CMS contracts.

Gross margin dollars were up more than $5.0 million, or 13.2% for the first quarter of 2008, compared to the same period in 2007. However, the gross margin percentage was 29.5% for the first quarter of 2008, compared to 30.9% for the first quarter of 2007. The Company’s larger mix of CMS revenues reported on a gross versus pass-through basis decreased gross margin as a percentage of sales was 30.7% for the third quarterby approximately 0.5 percentage points. The remaining decline in gross margin as a percentage of 2007, comparedsales is due to 31.6% for the third quarter 2006. Higher selling prices and additional contribution from the Company’s CMS channel helped improve margins in dollar terms, while higherincreased raw material costs in excess of price increases, as well as product and regional sales mix resultedmix. The Company has announced and implemented a number of price increases to further aid in a lower gross margin percentage. On a sequential basis,offsetting unprecedented levels in the third quarter gross margin percentage was in line with first quarter 2007 and second quarter 2007 gross margin percentages of 30.9% and 31.0%, respectively.Company’s key raw material costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter increased $5.1$2.6 million, compared to the thirdfirst quarter 2006.of 2007. Foreign exchange rate translation accounted for approximately $1.3 million of the increase. Other major contributors were planned spending in higher growth areas, such as China, higher commissions as a result of higher sales, as well as two charges totaling $1.2 million relating to certain customer bankruptcies and a discontinued strategic initiative.

In the third quarter 2007, the Company recorded environmental charges of $3.3 million as disclosed in its press release dated October 23, 2007. The charges consist of $2.0 million related to the settlement of environmental litigation involving AC Products, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, as well as an additional $1.3 million charge for the estimated future remediation costs.

The decrease in other income was the result of a distribution received from the Company’s former real estate joint venture in the prior year quarter, as well as lower license fee income in the third quarter 2007. The increase in net interest expense was attributable to higher average borrowings and higher interest rates.

The tax benefit recorded in the third quarter 2007 includes a $0.7 million refund of taxes in China as a result of the Company’s increased investment. The third quarter 2006 included a similar tax rebate of $0.4 million. In addition, the third quarter 2007 includes a non-cash out-of-period tax benefit adjustment of $1.0 million related to certain deferred tax items. Refer to the Comparison of the First Nine Months of 2007 with the First Nine Months of 2006 section below for further discussion.

Net income for the third quarter 2007 was $3.2 million, compared to $3.1 million for the third quarter of 2006. The environmental charges of $3.3 million were tempered by the China tax refund as well as the out-of-period tax benefit.

Segment Reviews – Comparison of the Third Quarter 2007 with Third Quarter 2006

Metalworking Process Chemicals

Metalworking Process Chemicals consists of industrial process fluids for various heavy industrial and manufacturing applications and represented approximately 92% of the Company’s net sales for the third quarter of 2007. Net sales were up $22.5 million, or 21%, compared with the third quarter of 2007. Foreign currency translation positively impacted net sales by approximately 6%, driven by the euro to U.S. dollar and Brazilian real to U.S. dollar exchange rates. The average euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate was 1.37 in the third quarter of 2007, compared to 1.27 in the third quarter of 2006, and the average Brazilian real exchange rate was 0.52 in the third quarter of 2007, compared to 0.46 in the third quarter of 2006. Net sales were positively impacted by 24.4% growth in Asia/Pacific, 16.9% growth in North America, 13.6% growth in Europe and 6.6% growth in South America, all on a constant currency basis. The growth in sales was attributable to higher sales prices, volume growth, and higher CMS sales due to the renegotiation of certain contracts in the first quarter of 2007. The majority of the volume growth came from increased demand in China and Europe, while price increases implemented across all regions helped to offset higher raw material costs. The $2.9 million increase in this segment’s operating income compared to the third quarter of 2006 is largely reflective of the Company’s pricing actions and improved performance from the Company’s U.S. CMS channel, offset, in part by higher selling costs.

Coatings

The Company’s Coatings segment, which represented approximately 7% of the Company’s net sales for the third quarter of 2007, contains products that provide temporary and permanent coatings for metal and concrete products and chemical milling maskants. Net sales for this segment were up $1.4 million, or 15.9%, for the third quarter 2007, compared with the prior year period primarily due to higher temporary and permanent coatings product sales. This segment’s operating income was flat with the prior year due to higher contract manufacturing and selling costs.

Other Chemical Products

Other Chemical Products, which represented approximately 1% of the Company’s net sales for the third quarter of 2007, consists of sulfur removal products for industrial gas streams sold by the Company’s Q2 Technologies joint venture. Net sales were up $0.4 million and operating income for this segment was flat with the prior year. The third quarter 2007 sales increase included sales from this segment’s second quarter 2007 acquisition of Frontier Research and Chemicals Company.

Comparison of the Nine Months ended September 30, 2007 with the Nine Months ended September 30, 2006

Net sales for the first nine months of 2007 were $403.2 million, up 16.9% from $344.9 million for the first nine months of 2006. Double-digit volume increases in China, higher CMS revenues, and selling price increases realized across all regions and market segments were the primary reasons for the increase in net sales. Foreign exchange rate translation increased revenues by approximately 4.4% for the first nine months of 2007, compared to the same period in 2006.

Gross margin as a percentage of sales was 30.8% for the first nine months of 2007, compared to 30.5% in the prior year period. Higher selling prices and a stronger performance from the Company’s CMS channel helped maintain the gross margin percentage despite continued increases in raw material prices.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of 2007 increased $15.3 million, compared to the first nine months of 2006. Foreign exchange rate translation accounted for approximately $3.3 million of the increase over the prior year. Also negatively affecting the comparison with the prior year was a pension gain of $0.9 million recorded in the first quarter 2006 due to a legislative change. The remainder of the increase was due to continued planned spending in higher growth areas, primarily China, higher incentive compensation as a result of higher earnings, higher commissions as a result of higher sales, higherInflationary increases were largely offset by lower legal and environmental costs the third quarter charges noted previously, and inflationary increases.lower incentive compensation expense.

The increasedecrease in other income was primarily due to foreign exchange gains recordedrate losses in the first nine months of 2007,2008 compared to lossesgains in the prior year. The increase in net2007. Net interest expense was attributablelower due to higherlower average borrowings and higheras well as lower interest rates.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 21.2%34.1% for the first nine monthsquarter of 2007,2008, compared to 35.4% in32.9% for the prior year.first quarter of 2007. Many external and internal factors can impact this rate and the Company will continue to refine this rate, if necessary, as the year progresses. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a changing mix of income among tax jurisdictions as well as the non-cash out-of-period adjustment noted above, offset, in part, by the Company’s first quarter 2007 adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). At the end of 2006,2007, the Company had net U.S. deferred tax assets totaling $15.5$16.8 million, excluding deferred tax assets relating to additional minimum pension liabilities. The Company records valuation allowances when necessary to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The Company considers future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. However, in the event the Company were to determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be a non-cash charge to income in the period such determination was made, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s

financial statements. The continued price pressure in the Company’s raw materials has been negatively impacting profitability in certain taxing jurisdictions. The Company continues to closely monitor this situation as it relates to its net deferred tax assets and the assessment of valuation allowances. The Company is continuing to evaluate alternatives that could positively impact taxable income in these jurisdictions.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Quaker is exposed to the impact of changes of interest rates, foreign currency fluctuations, changes in commodity prices, and credit risk.

Interest Rate Risk. Quaker’s exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to its short and long-term debt. Most of Quaker’s debt is negotiated at market rates which can be either fixed or variable. Accordingly, if interest rates rise significantly, the cost of debt to Quaker will increase. This can have an adverse effect on Quaker, depending on the extent of Quaker’s borrowings. As of September 30, 2007,March 31, 2008, Quaker had $81.4$84.4 million in borrowings under its credit facilities compared to $79.2$73.8 million at December 31, 2006.2007, at a weighted average borrowing rate of approximately 5.8%. The Company uses derivative financial instruments primarily for purposes of hedging exposures to fluctuations in interest rates. These derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. The Company has entered into seven interest rate swaps in order to fix a portion of its variable rate debt. The swaps had a combined notional value of $35.0 million and a fair value of $(0.3)$(2.3) million and $0.1$(1.1) million at September 30, 2007March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2006,2007, respectively. The counterparties to the swaps are major financial institutions. In February 2007, the Company completed a refinancing of its existing industrial development bonds to fix the interest rate of an additional $5.0 million of debt.

Foreign Exchange Risk. A significant portion of Quaker’s revenues and earnings is generated by its foreign operations. These foreign operations also hold a significant portion of Quaker’s assets and liabilities. All such operations use the local currency as their functional currency. Accordingly, Quaker’s financial results are affected by risks typical of global business such as currency fluctuations, particularly between the U.S. dollar, the Brazilian real, the Chinese renminbi and the E.U. euro. As exchange rates vary, Quaker’s results can be materially affected.

The Company generally does not use financial instruments that expose it to significant risk involving foreign currency transactions; however, the size of non-U.S. activities has a significant impact on reported operating results and the attendant net assets. During the past three most recent fiscal years, sales by non-U.S. subsidiaries accounted for approximately 53%55% to 56%58% of the consolidated net annual sales.

In addition, the Company often sources inventory among its worldwide operations. This practice can give rise to foreign exchange risk resulting from the varying cost of inventory to the receiving location as well as from the revaluation of intercompany balances. The Company mitigates this risk through local sourcing efforts.

Commodity Price Risk. Many of the raw materials used by Quaker are commodity chemicals, and, therefore, Quaker’s earnings can be materially adversely affected by market changes in raw material prices. In certain cases, Quaker has entered into fixed-price purchase contracts having a term of up to one year. These contracts provide for protection to Quaker if the price for the contracted raw materials rises, however, in certain limited circumstances, Quaker will not realize the benefit if such prices decline.

Credit Risk. Quaker establishes allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of Quaker’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. Downturns in the overall economic climate may also tend to exacerbate specific customer financial issues. A significant portion of Quaker’s revenues is derived from sales to customers in the U.S.

steel industry,and automotive industries, where a number of bankruptcies occurred during recent years. In recent years certain large industrial customersand companies have also experienced financial difficulties. When a bankruptcy occurs, Quaker must judge the amount of proceeds, if any, that may ultimately be received through the bankruptcy or liquidation process. In addition, as part of its terms of trade, Quaker may custom manufacture products for certain large customers and/or may ship product on a consignment basis. These practices may increase the Company’s exposure should a bankruptcy occur, and may require writedownwrite-down or disposal of certain inventory due to its estimated obsolescence or limited marketability. Customer returns of products or disputes may also result in similar issues related to the realizability of recorded accounts receivable or returned inventory.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controlsdisclosure controls and Procedures.procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on their evaluation of such controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)), are effective to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Changes in Internal Controls.internal controls. The Company is in the process of implementing a global ERP system. At the end of 2006,2007, subsidiaries representing more than 70%75% of consolidated revenue were operational on the global ERP system. Additional subsidiaries and CMS sites have been implemented and are planned to be implemented during 2007.2008. The Company is taking the necessary steps to monitor and maintain its internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during this period of change.
