Cytec Provides Second Quarter Earnings Update
Woodland Park, New Jersey, July 13, 2012 – Cytec Industries Inc.
(NYSE:CYT) announced today that it estimates its adjusted
earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of 2012 to be
between $1.50 and $1.55 per share. The main drivers for the
quarter’s excellent results are strong performance in the In
Process Separation and Coating Resins business segments.
Engineered Materials and Additive Technologies performed well
and are on track with prior guidance. Excluded from adjusted
earnings per share amounts are restructuring and other charges
related to the Coating Resins sale process and the acquisition
of Umeco.
Cytec will issue its second quarter 2012 earnings release on
July 19, 2012 with the Coating Resins segment reported as
discontinued operations. The company will also provide updated
full year 2012 guidance.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Management believes that earnings per share before special
items, which is a non-GAAP measurement, is meaningful to
investors because it provides a view of the Company with respect
to ongoing operating results. Special items represent
significant charges or credits that are important to an
understanding of the Company’s overall operating results in the
period presented. Such non-GAAP measurements are not recognized
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP
measures of performance.

herein, statements contained in this release may constitute

to differ materially, as discussed in Cytec’s filings with the
