Note 1 — Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Business — We have two reportable segments: Industrial and Water Treatment. The Industrial Group operates our Industrial segment and specializes in providing industrial chemicals, products and services to the agriculture, energy, electronics, food, chemical processing, pulp and paper, pharmaceutical, medical device and plating industries. The group also manufactures and sells certain food-grade products, including our patented Cheese Phos® liquid phosphate, lactates and other blended products. The Water Treatment Group operates our Water Treatment segment and specializes in providing chemicals, equipment and solutions for potable water, municipal and industrial wastewater, industrial process water and non-residential swimming pool water. The group has the resources and flexibility to treat systems ranging in size from a small single well to a multi-million gallon-per-day facility. Fiscal Year — Our fiscal year is a 52/53-week year ending on the Sunday closest to March 31. Our fiscal year ending April 1, 2012 (“fiscal 2012”) is a 52-week year. The fiscal year ended April 3, 2011 (“fiscal 2011”) was a 53-week year, and the fiscal year ended March 28, 2010 (“fiscal 2010”) was a 52-week year. The fiscal year ending on March 31, 2013 (“fiscal 2013”) will be a 52-week year. Beginning in fiscal 2012, we changed our quarterly interim reporting to a 13-week convention. Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hawkins, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition — We recognize revenue when there is evidence that the customer has agreed to purchase the product, the price and terms of the sale are fixed, the product has shipped and title passes to our customer, performance has occurred, and collection of the receivable is reasonably assured. Shipping and Handling — All shipping and handling amounts billed to customers are included in revenues. Costs incurred related to the shipping and handling of products are included in cost of sales. Fair Value Measurements — The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard codified in ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” that provides a single definition for fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Under this standard, fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. This standard also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based upon the best information available in the circumstances. The financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value for each reporting period include marketable securities. Other than the application of purchase accounting as a result of the Vertex acquisition, there were no fair value measurements with respect to nonfinancial assets or liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in our consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis subsequent to the effective date of this standard. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date: Level 1: Valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2: Valuation is based on inputs such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3: Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement. In making fair value measurements, observable market data must be used when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Cash Equivalents — Cash equivalents include all liquid debt instruments (primarily cash funds, money market accounts and certificates of deposit) purchased with an original maturity of three months or less. The balances maintained at financial institutions may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. Investments — Available-for-sale securities consist of certificates of deposit and are valued at current market value, with the resulting unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net of tax, as a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. Any impairment loss to reduce an investment’s carrying amount to its fair market value is recognized in income when a decline in the fair market value of an individual security below its cost or carrying value is determined to be other than temporary. Trade Receivables and Concentrations of Credit Risk — Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk, principally consist of trade receivables. We sell our principal products to a large number of customers in many different industries. There are no concentrations of business transacted with a particular customer or sales from a particular service or geographic area that would significantly impact us in the near term. To reduce credit risk, we routinely assess the financial strength of our customers. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce our receivables to an amount we estimate is collectible from our customers. Estimates used in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts are based on historical collection experience, current trends, aging of accounts receivable and periodic evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. We invest our excess cash balances at times in certificates of deposit and a money market account at two separate financial institutions where the cash balances may exceed federally insured limits. The institutions are two of the largest commercial banking institutions in the country and both have maintained a AA credit rating. Inventories — Inventories, consisting primarily of finished goods, are primarily valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. Vertex’s inventory cost, which represents approximately 10% of the total FIFO inventory balance at April 1, 2012, is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method.   Property, Plant and Equipment — Property is stated at cost and depreciated or amortized over the lives of the assets, using straight-line method. Estimated lives are: 10 to 40 years for buildings and improvements; 3 to 20 years for machinery and equipment; 3 to 10 years for transportation equipment; and 3 to 10 years for office furniture and equipment including computer systems. Significant improvements that add to productive capacity or extend the lives of properties are capitalized. Costs for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. When property is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any related gains or losses are included in income. We review the recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used, such as property, plant and equipment, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable, such as prolonged industry downturn or significant reductions in projected future cash flows. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset or asset group from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset or asset group, an impairment loss would be measured by the amount the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. The measurement of impairment requires us to estimate future cash flows and the fair value of long-lived assets. No material long-lived assets were determined to be impaired during fiscal 2012, 2011, or 2010. Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets — Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquired businesses over the fair value of identifiable tangible net assets and identifiable intangible assets purchased. Goodwill is tested at least annually for impairment, and is tested for impairment more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test is performed using a two-step process. In the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with the carrying amount of the reporting unit, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount of the reporting unit, an indication that goodwill impairment exists and a second step must be completed in order to determine the amount of the goodwill impairment, if any, which should be recorded. In the second step, an impairment loss would be recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires us to make significant estimates regarding future revenues and expenses, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital and the appropriate discount rate. The projections also take into account several factors including current and estimated economic trends and outlook, costs of raw materials, consideration of our market capitalization in comparison to the estimated fair values of our reporting units determined using discounted cash flow analyses and other factors which are beyond our control. Our primary identifiable intangible assets include customer lists, trade secrets, non-compete agreements, trademarks, and trade names acquired in previous business acquisitions. Identifiable intangibles with finite lives are amortized and those identifiable intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized. The values assigned to the intangible assets with finite lives are being amortized on average over approximately 14 years. Identifiable intangible assets that are subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Identifiable intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events warrant. The impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount. We completed step one of our annual goodwill impairment evaluation during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and determined that our reporting units’ fair value substantially exceeded their carrying value. Accordingly, step two of the impairment analysis was not required. We also completed an impairment test of infinite-life intangible assets during the fourth quarter, in which the fair value exceeded the carrying amount. Additionally, no impairment charges were required for fiscal 2011 or 2010. Income Taxes — In the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, management calculates income taxes based upon the estimated effective rate applicable to operating results for the full fiscal year. This includes estimating the current tax liability as well as assessing differences resulting from different treatment of items for tax and book accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are recorded on the balance sheet. These assets and liabilities are analyzed regularly and management assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. We record any interest and penalties related to income taxes as income tax expense in the statements of income. The effect of income tax positions are recognized only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Changes in recognition or measurement are made as facts and circumstances change. Stock-Based Compensation — We account for stock-based compensation on a fair value basis. The estimated grant date fair value of each stock-based award is recognized in expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period). The estimated fair value of each option is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Non-vested share awards are recorded as compensation expense over the requisite service periods based on the market value on the date of grant. Earnings Per Share — Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding including the incremental shares assumed to be issued upon the exercise of stock options and the incremental shares assumed to be issued as performance units and restricted stock. Basic and diluted EPS were calculated using the following:   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="67%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">April 1, 2012</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">April 3, 2011</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">March 28, 2010</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Weighted average common shares outstanding — basic </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">10,339,391</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">10,260,135</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">10,250,978</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Dilutive impact of stock options, performance units, and restricted stock </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">69,182</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">92,498</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">32,015</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Weighted average common shares outstanding — diluted </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">10,408,573</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">10,352,633</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">10,282,993</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr>  </table> There were no shares or stock options excluded from the calculation of weighted average common shares for diluted EPS for fiscal 2012 or fiscal 2011. Stock options totaling 70,665 in fiscal 2010 have been excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because the effect of including the shares would be anti-dilutive. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — We do not have any freestanding or embedded derivatives and it is our policy to not enter into contracts that contain them. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — Intangibles – Goodwill and Other — In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment” which amended the guidance on goodwill impairment testing to allow companies to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. If, as a result of the qualitative assessment, an entity determines that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, which is our fiscal year 2013, but early adoption is permitted. We intend to adopt the amendment in fiscal 2013 and do not expect it to materially affect our financial position or results of operations. Multiemployer Pension Plans — In September 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-09, “Disclosures about an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan”, to require expanded disclosures for entities participating in multiemployer plans. The expanded disclosures are designed to assist financial statement users in assessing the potential impact of an entity’s participation in multiemployer plans on future cash flow. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2011. We adopted this ASU during fiscal 2012. This ASU does not change the accounting for an employer’s participation in a multiemployer plan. See Note 8 — Profit Sharing, Employee Stock Ownership and Employee Stock Purchase Plans for disclosures related to this ASU.

Note 2 — Business Combinations In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, we completed the acquisition of the assets of Vertex Chemical Corporation, Novel Wash Co. Inc. and R.H.A. Corporation, (collectively, “Vertex”), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of January 10, 2011 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”). As provided in the Asset Purchase Agreement, we acquired substantially all of the assets used in Vertex’s business, which is primarily the manufacture and distribution of sodium hypochlorite and the distribution of caustic soda, hydrochloric acid and related products. We paid cash of $25.5 million at closing and assumed certain liabilities of Vertex. The purchase price was revised to $27.2 million as provided in the Asset Purchase Agreement to reflect a final working capital adjustment of $1.7 million, which was paid in early fiscal 2012. In connection with the acquisition we incurred acquisition related costs during fiscal 2011 of $0.7 million, which were recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The acquisition has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets of Vertex acquired in connection with the acquisition, based on their estimated fair values. The allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed follows:   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="68%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="84%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="9%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom">(In thousands)</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Amount</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Accounts receivable </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">4,975</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Inventories </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">4,486</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Other current assets </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">198</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Property, plant and equipment </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">8,991</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Goodwill </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">5,291</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Intangibles </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">5,490</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Accounts payable </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">(2,012</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">) </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Accrued employee benefits </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">(210</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">) </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Total purchase price </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">27,209</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr>  </table>   The allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulted in the recognition of the following intangible assets:   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="76%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse;

Under the income approach an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of future economic benefits to be derived from ownership of an asset. Indications of value are developed by discounting future net cash flows to their present value at market-based rates of return. The goodwill recognized as a result of the Vertex acquisition is primarily attributable to expected synergies, as well as Vertex’s assembled work force.

As of April 1, 2012, the CD’s in current assets have a fair value of $12.2 million, and in noncurrent assets, the CD’s have a fair value of $5.1 million. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents accounts approximates fair value, as maturities are three months or less.

The remainder of the inventory was valued and accounted for under the FIFO method. We increased the LIFO reserve by $1.6 million in fiscal 2012 due primarily to the volume and mix of commodity chemicals in inventory at the end of the year. In fiscal 2011 we increased the LIFO reserve by $3.9 million due primarily to rising inventory costs, as well as higher inventory volumes at the end of fiscal 2011.

Note 7 — Share-Based Compensation Stock Option Awards. Our Board of Directors has approved a long-term incentive equity compensation arrangement for our executive officers. This long-term incentive arrangement provides for the grant of nonqualified stock options that vest at the end of a three-year period and expire no later than 10 years after the grant date. We used the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of the options at grant date based on the following assumptions:   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="76%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="61%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="18%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="17%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Fiscal 2010 grant</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Fiscal 2009 grant</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Dividend yield </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">2.5</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">3.2</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Volatility </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">31.4</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">28.0</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Risk-free interest rate </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">2.1</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">3.0</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">% </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Expected life in years </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">4</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">4</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>  </table>   Volatility was calculated using the past four years of historical stock prices of our common stock.

</table> The weighted average grant date fair value of options was estimated to be $4.33 and $2.95 for options granted in fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. The weighted average remaining life of all outstanding and exercisable options is 6.1 years. Annual expense related to the value of stock options was $0.1 million for fiscal 2012, $0.2 million for fiscal 2011 and $0.1 million for fiscal 2010, substantially all of which was recorded in SG&A expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Options awarded to John Hawkins, former Chief Executive Officer, became fully vested and exercisable upon his death in March 2011, resulting in the acceleration of expense of $0.1 million. The total fair value of options vested during fiscal 2012 was $0.1 million compared to $0.2 million during fiscal 2011. Unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding stock options as of April 1, 2012 was not material and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.2 years. Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. Our Board of Directors has approved a performance-based equity compensation arrangement for our executive officers. This performance-based arrangement provides for the grant of performance-based restricted stock units that represent a possible future issuance of restricted shares of our common stock based on our pre-tax income target for the applicable fiscal year. The actual number of restricted shares to be issued to each executive officer will be determined when our final financial information becomes available after the applicable fiscal year and will be between zero shares and 43,022 shares in the aggregate for fiscal 2012. The restricted shares issued will fully vest two years after the last day of the fiscal year on which the performance is based. We are recording the compensation expense for the outstanding performance share units and then-converted restricted stock over the life of the awards. Performance-based restricted stock units were awarded to our executive officers on June 8, 2011, June 2, 2010 and June 10, 2009 under this arrangement.

2011 and the potential issuance of shares for fiscal 2012 of approximately $0.8 million for fiscal 2012, $1.6 million for fiscal 2011 and $0.4 million for fiscal 2010, substantially all of which was recorded in SG&A expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The performance-based restricted stock units previously awarded to John Hawkins, totaling 39,820 shares, became fully vested and payable upon his death in March 2011, resulting in the acceleration of compensation expense of $0.4 million. The total fair value of performance-based restricted stock units vested in fiscal 2012 was $0.3 million compared to $1.4 million in fiscal 2011. Until the performance-based restricted stock units result in the issuance of restricted stock, the amount of expense recorded each period is dependent upon our estimate of the number of shares that will ultimately be issued and our then current common stock price. Upon issuance of restricted stock, we record compensation expense over the remaining vesting period using the award date closing price, which was $25.81 per share on June 2, 2010 and $35.39 per share on June 8, 2011. Unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted share units as of April 1, 2012 was $1.1 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.4 years. In conjunction with the vesting of restricted stock held by certain of our executive officers, 3,980 shares were forfeited during fiscal 2012 to cover the executive officers statutory minimum income tax withholding. The benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation costs (excess tax benefits) are recorded as a change in additional paid in capital rather than a deduction of taxes paid. The amount of excess tax benefit recognized and recorded in additional paid in capital resulting from share-based compensation cost was $0.7 million in fiscal 2012 and $0.3 million during fiscal 2011. Restricted Stock Awards. As part of their retainer, the Board of Directors receives restricted stock for their Board services. The restricted stock awards are expensed over the requisite vesting period, which begins on the date of issuance and ends on the date of the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders, based on the market value on the date of grant.

Note 8 — Profit Sharing, Employee Stock Ownership, Employee Stock Purchase and Pension Plans Effective April 1, 2009, we converted our defined contribution pension plan covering substantially all of our non-bargaining unit employees to a profit sharing plan. It is our policy to fund all costs accrued. Contributions are made at our discretion subject to a maximum amount allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. Our cost for the profit sharing and pension plan was 15% of each employee’s eligible compensation in each of the fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010. Beginning in fiscal 2013, profit sharing plan contributions are variable and aligned with company performance with a targeted contribution of between 2.5% and 5% of an employee’s eligible compensation, depending upon date of hire. In addition to the changes in the profit sharing plan for fiscal 2013, we introduced a 401(k) plan that will allow employees to contribute pre-tax earnings up to the maximum amount allowed under the Internal Revenue Code, with an employer match of up to 5% of the employee’s eligible compensation. We have an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) covering substantially all of our non-bargaining unit employees. Contributions are made at our discretion subject to a maximum amount allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. Our cost for the ESOP was 5% of each employee’s eligible compensation in each of the fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010. Beginning in fiscal 2013, ESOP contributions are variable and aligned with company performance with a targeted contribution of between 2.5% and 5% of an employee’s eligible compensation, depending upon date of hire. We have an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) covering substantially all of our employees. The ESPP allows employees to purchase newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock at a discount from market, with no employee contribution match from the Company. Prior to fiscal 2012, this plan had a monthly employer match of 75% of each employee’s contribution, up to a maximum of $375 per month, with the ESPP shares of the Company purchased on the open market. In fiscal 2012, Vertex employees participated in a 401(k) plan that included an employer match of up to 3% of the employee’s eligible compensation and a discretionary Company contribution. The total company contribution to this plan was $0.2 million. Beginning in fiscal 2013, Vertex employees are included within the Company’s retirement plans outlined above.   The following represents the contribution expense for the profit sharing, ESOP, ESPP and 401(k) plans:   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="84%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="70%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="5%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="5%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="5%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap"> Benefit Plan </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">2012</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">2011</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">2010</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom">(In thousands)</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td colspan="2" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td colspan="2" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td colspan="2" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Profit sharing </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">2,616</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">2,675</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">2,844</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> ESOP </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">802</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">815</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">899</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> ESPP </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">262</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">648</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">650</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Vertex plan </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">175</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">—  </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">—  </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Total contribution expense </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">3,855</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">4,138</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">4,393</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr>  </table> Multiemployer pension plan. We participate in a union sponsored, collectively bargained multiemployer pension plan (“Union Plan”). Contributions are determined in accordance with the provisions of negotiated labor contracts and generally are based on the number of hours worked. The risks of participating in multiemployer pension plans are different from single-employer plans in the following aspects: (i) Assets contributed to a multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers; (ii) If a participating employer stops contributing to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers; and (iii) if we stop participating in the multiemployer plan, we may be required to pay the plan an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan, referred to as a withdrawal liability. The Company’s participation in the Central States, Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Fund (“Central States”) is outlined in the table below. The Pension Protection Act (“PPA”) Zone Status available in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 is for the plan’s year ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The zone status is based on information that we obtained from Central States and is certified by the plan’s actuary. Among other factors, plans in the red zone are generally less than 65% funded. The “FIP/RP Status Pending/Implemented” column indicates if a funding improvement plan (“FIP”) or a rehabilitation plan (“RP”) is either pending or has been implemented.   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="43%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="2%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="4" nowrap="nowrap"> Pension Fund </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" rowspan="4" nowrap="nowrap" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Employer Identification Number</td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="4"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" rowspan="4" nowrap="nowrap" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Pension Plan Number</td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="4"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="6" rowspan="2" nowrap="nowrap" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">PPA Zone Status</td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="2"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" rowspan="4" nowrap="nowrap" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">FIP/RP Status Pending/ Implemented</td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="4"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" rowspan="4" nowrap="nowrap" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Surcharge Imposed </td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="4"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" rowspan="4" nowrap="nowrap" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Expiration  Date of Collective Bargaining Agreements</td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="4"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" rowspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">April  1, 2012</td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="2"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" rowspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">April  3, 2011</td> <td valign="bottom" rowspan="2"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Central States, Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Fund </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">36-6044243</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">001</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">Red</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">Red</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">Implemented</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">Yes</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">02/28/2013</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>  </table> Based upon the most recent information available from the trustees managing CSS, our share of the unfunded vested benefit liability for the plan was estimated to be approximately $7.9 million if the withdrawal had occurred in calendar year 2011, an increase from an estimate of approximately $5.1 million if the withdrawal had occurred in calendar year 2009. These estimates were calculated by the trustees managing CSS. Although we believe the most recent plan data available from CSS was used in computing this 2011 estimate, the actual withdrawal liability amount is subject to change based on, among other things, the plan’s investment returns and benefit levels, interest rates, financial difficulty of other participating employers in the plan such as bankruptcy, and continued participation by the company and other employers in the plan, each of which could impact the ultimate withdrawal liability. If withdrawal liability were to be triggered, we would have the option to make payments over a period of 20 years instead of paying the withdrawal liability in a lump sum.   We made contribution to the plan of approximately $0.4 million in fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010 and expect to make contributions to the plan of approximately $0.5 million during fiscal 2013.

To date, none of the litigation has had a material effect on us. Legal fees associated with such matters are expensed as incurred. On November 3, 2009, ICL Performance Products, LP (“ICL”), a chemical supplier to us, filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, asserting breach of a contract for the sale of 75% purified phosphoric acid in 2009 (the “2009 Contract”). ICL seeks to recover $7.3 million in damages and pre-judgment interest, and additionally seeks to recover its costs and attorneys’ fees. ICL also claimed that we breached a contract for the sale of 75% purified phosphoric acid in 2008 (the “2008 Contract”). ICL has since dropped its claim for breach of the 2008 Contract. We have counterclaimed against ICL alleging that ICL falsely claimed to have a shortage of raw materials that prevented it from supplying us with the contracted quantity of 75% purified phosphoric acid for 2008. We claim that ICL used this alleged shortage and the threat of discontinued shipments of 75% purified phosphoric acid to force us to pay increased prices for the remainder of 2008, and to sign the 2009 Contract. Based on this alleged conduct, we have brought four alternate causes of action including: (1) breach of contract, (2) breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, (3) negligent misrepresentation, and (4) intentional misrepresentation. We seek to recover $1.5 million in damages, and additionally seek to recover punitive damages, pre- and post-judgment interest, and our costs and attorneys’ fees. After the completion of discovery, both parties moved for summary judgment in their favor. On February 7, 2012, the Court denied both parties’ motions for summary judgment. ICL moved for reconsideration of parts of its motion for summary judgment. On April 24, 2012, the Court granted ICL’s motion for reconsideration in part, and denied it in part. In its April 24, 2012 Memorandum and Order, the Court interpreted the meaning and effect of a specific phrase in the 2009 Contract, and concluded that, if the 2009 Contract is a legally enforceable contract, Hawkins remained obligated to purchase 50% of its requirements for 75% purified phosphoric acid from ICL in 2009. Trial is scheduled to begin on July 23, 2012. We are not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation, but legal proceedings such as this can result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources, which may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations, including cash flows.   Asset Retirement Obligations — We have three leases of land (two relate to Hawkins and one relates to Vertex), and at the end of the lease term (currently 2014 for the Vertex lease and 2018 for the Hawkins leases if the leases are not renewed), we have a specified amount of time to remove the property and buildings. At the end of the specified amount of time, anything that remains on the land becomes the property of the lessor, and the lessor has the option to either maintain the property or remove the property at our expense. We have not been able to reasonably estimate the fair value of the asset retirement obligations, primarily due to the combination of the following factors: The Hawkins leases do not expire in the near future; we have a history of extending the leases with the lessors and currently intend to do so at expiration of the lease periods; the lessors do not have a history of terminating leases with its tenants; and because it is more likely than not that the buildings will have value at the end of the lease life and therefore, may not be removed by either the lessee or the lessor. We are currently in negotiations with the landlord regarding the Vertex land lease which expires in 2014 and expect to sign a long-term extension in the near future. Therefore, in accordance with ASC 410-20, “Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations,” we have not recorded an asset retirement obligation as of April 1, 2012. We will continue to monitor the factors surrounding the requirement to record an asset retirement obligation and will recognize the fair value of a liability in the period in which it is incurred and a reasonable estimate can be made.

</table> As of April 1, 2012, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets at April 1, 2012 will be realized either through future taxable income or reversals of taxable temporary differences. As of April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011, there were no unrecognized tax benefits. Accordingly, a tabular reconciliation from beginning to ending periods is not provided. We are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. The tax years beginning with 2007 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and with few exceptions, state and local income tax jurisdictions.

Note 11 — Discontinued Operations In February 2009, we agreed to sell our inventory and entered into a marketing agreement regarding the business of our Pharmaceutical segment, which provided pharmaceutical chemicals to retail pharmacies and small-scale pharmaceutical manufacturers. The inventory was sold in fiscal 2010 for cash of approximately $1.8 million which approximated its carrying value. The marketing agreement provides for annual payments based on a percentage of gross profit on future sales up to a maximum of approximately $3.5 million. We have no significant remaining obligations to fulfill under the agreement. Amounts received under the marketing agreement in excess of $1.7 million, the carrying value of intangible assets related to this business at the time of sale, have been recorded as a gain on sale of discontinued operations. Through fiscal 2012, we have recorded gains of approximately $1.7 million before taxes and expect to accrue a nominal amount in fiscal 2013 which will finalize the agreement. To date, we have received $2.2 million in cash under this marketing agreement and expect to collect the remaining $1.3 million in fiscal 2013. The results of the Pharmaceutical segment have been reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Note 12 — Segment Information We have two reportable segments: Industrial and Water Treatment. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Product costs and expenses for each segment are based on actual costs incurred along with cost allocation of shared and centralized functions. We evaluate performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes not including nonrecurring gains and losses. Reportable segments are defined by product and type of customer. Segments are responsible for the sales, marketing and development of their products and services. The segments do not have separate accounting, administration, customer service or purchasing functions. There are no intersegment sales and no operating segments have been aggregated. Given our nature, it is not practical to disclose revenues from external customers for each product or each group of similar products. No single customer’s revenues amount to 10% or more of our revenue. No single customer represents 10% or more of either of our segments’ sales. Sales are primarily within the United States and all assets are located within the United States.   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="84%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse;
