Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations
 
Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
The information provided in Item 2.03 below is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 1.02  Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On November 6, 2007, ThermaClime, Inc. ("TCI"), a wholly owned subsidiary of LSB Industries, Inc. (the "Company"), terminated its $50 million term loan (the “Prior Senior Secured Loan”), under the Loan Agreement, dated September 16, 2004, as amended, among TCI, certain of its subsidiaries, and ORIX Capital Markets, LLC, as agent and the initial lender.  The Prior Senior Secured Loan and related Loan Agreement was terminated without penalty upon payment of all amounts owing by the borrowers under the Prior Senior Secured Loan, which payment was funded with the proceeds of the Term Loan, discussed in Item 2.03, below.

The Prior Senior Secured Loan was to be repaid as follows:

•           quarterly interest payments which began September 30, 2004;
•           quarterly principal payments of $312,500 which began October 1, 2007;
a final payment of the remaining outstanding principal of $47.5 million and accrued interest on September 16, 2009.

The Prior Senior Secured Loan accrued interest at a defined LIBOR rate plus a defined LIBOR margin or, at the election of the borrowers, an alternative defined base rate plus a defined base rate margin with the annual interest rate not to exceed 11% or 11.5% depending on the leverage ratio. At September 30, 2007, the effective interest rate was 11%.  The borrowers were subject to numerous covenants under the Prior Senior Secured Loan agreement including, but not limited to, limitation on the incurrence of certain additional indebtedness and liens, limitations on mergers, acquisitions, dissolution and sale of assets, and limitations on declaration of dividends and distributions to us, all with certain exceptions. The borrowers were also subject to a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, measured quarterly on a trailing twelve-month basis. The Borrowers’ fixed charge coverage ratio exceeded the required minimum ratio for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2007.

The Prior Senior Secured Loan was secured by a first lien on (a) certain real property and equipment located at the El Dorado, Arkansas facility (“El Dorado Facility”), (b) certain real property and equipment located at the Cherokee, Alabama facility (“Cherokee Facility”), (c) certain equipment of the Climate Control Business, and (d)  the equity stock of certain of ThermaClime’s subsidiaries.

 
 

 
 
Section 2 – Financial Information
 
Item 2.02  Results of Operations and Financial Condition
 
On November 5, 2007, LSB Industries, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release to report its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2007. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
On November 5, 2007, at 11:00 a.m. eastern time, the Company held a conference call broadcast live over the Internet to discuss the results of the third quarter ended September 30, 2007.  The conference call was announced in the press release, dated November 5, 2007, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
 
The information contained in this Item 2.02 of this Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto are being furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934 (as amended), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of such section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended), except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
 
Item 2.03   Creation of Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Company.
 
On November 2, 2007, TCI and certain of its subsidiaries (the "Borrowers") entered into a $50 million term loan (the "Term Loan") with Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC, as agent for the lenders, pursuant to a Term Loan Agreement dated the same date.  Completion of all conditions and funding under the Term Loan occurred on November 6, 2007, with the proceeds of the Term Loan being used to repay TCI’s Prior Senior Secured Loan, which is discussed in Item 1.02, above.  The Term Loan is for a term of five years, and is guaranteed by the Company. Certain other terms and conditions of the Term Loan are as follows:
 
(a)
interest will accrue at a defined LIBOR rate plus a defined LIBOR margin, resulting in a pro-forma borrowing rate at November 1, 2007 of 7.91%, approximately 3.1% lower than the rate on the Prior Senior Secured Loan which was replaced;
 
(b)
only quarterly interest payments are required, with final payment of interest and principal payable at maturity on the fifth anniversary of funding;
 
(c)
the collateral securing the Term Loan is limited to:
 
 
the real property and equipment located at the Company’s chemical plant facility in El Dorado, Arkansas,
 
 
the real property and equipment located at the Company’s chemical plant facility in Cherokee, Alabama; and
 
(d)
the Term Loan is subject to a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and a maximum Leverage Ratio, both as defined in the Term Loan Agreement, measured quarterly on a trailing twelve-month basis.  On a pro-forma basis, the Term Loan Borrowers’ Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio exceeded the required minimum ratio for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2007 and the pro-forma Leverage Ratio at September 30, 2007, was less than the maximum permitted in the Term Loan.
 
 
 

 
 
The Borrowers under the Term Loan are subject to other covenants under the Term Loan Agreement, which are substantially similar to the Prior Senior Secured Loan, including, but not limited to, limitation on the incurrence of certain additional indebtedness and liens, limitations on mergers, acquisitions, dissolution and sale of assets, and limitations on declaration of dividends and distributions to us, all with certain exceptions.
 
In connection with the Term Loan, the lenders of the Company’s $50 million working capital revolver loan released their security liens to the assets which collateralize the Term Loan and agreed to certain other modifications to the terms of the working capital revolver, including among other things, an interest rate reduction of .25%, effective at the  closing of the Term Loan.

Business Overview

November 5, 2007

Tony Shelby, LSB’s CFO, pointed out, “LSB’s net income for the three months ended September 30, 2007 included two settlement gains in Chemical Business’ operating income totaling $4.8 million and the reversal of valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets, resulting in a deferred tax benefit of $3.2 million.  The reversal of the valuation allowances is the result of our improving results, including the settlement gains, and our current expectations that it is more likely than not that we will be able to use the remaining tax net operating loss carryforwards in 2008.”
 
The two settlement gains included:

·  
A $3.3 million gain from settlement of pending litigation, and
·  
A partial settlement of $1.5 million as an advance payment for an insurance recovery on a business interruption claim.

Notes to Unaudited Financial Highlights
Nine Months and Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006

 
Note 1: Net income applicable to common stock is computed by adjusting net income by the amount of preferred stock dividend requirements and stock dividends.  Basic income per common share is based upon net income applicable to common stock and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.  Diluted income per share is based on net income applicable to common stock plus preferred stock dividend requirements on preferred stock assumed to be converted, if dilutive, and interest expense including amortization of debt issuance costs, net of income taxes, on convertible debt assumed to be converted, if dilutive, and the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding, and the assumed conversion of dilutive convertible securities outstanding.

 
Note 2: In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. AUG AIR-1 (“FSP”), accounting for planned major maintenance activities (“Turnarounds”).  Effective January 1, 2007, we changed from the accrue-in-advance method which we were using to the preferred direct expensing method in accordance with the FSP.  As a result of the change, net income for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 as presented in the Unaudited Financial Highlights has been increased $232,000 and $197,000, respectively, as a result of the retrospective application of the FSP.

 
Note 3: At December 31, 2006, we had regular-tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards for federal income taxes of approximately $49.9 million that begin expiring in 2019.  Prior to September 30, 2007, we had valuation allowances in place against the deferred tax asset arising from the NOL’s and other temporary differences. However as the result of improving financial results including the unusual settlements as mentioned above in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and our current expectation of generating taxable income in the future, we reversed valuation allowances of approximately $3.2 million as a benefit for income taxes for the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2007.

 
Due to the NOL carryforwards, the only provisions for income taxes for the nine and three-month periods of 2007 and 2006 were for federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes.  We anticipate fully utilizing the NOL carryforwards in 2008 at which time, we will begin recognizing and paying federal income taxes at regular corporate tax rates.

 
Note 4:  Information about the Company’s operations in different industry segments for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 is detailed on the following page.

Notes to Unedited Financial Highlights
Nine Months and Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006

 
 
(1)
Gross profit by industry segment represents net sales less cost of sales.  Gross profit classified as “Other” relates to the sales of industrial machinery and related components.

 
(2)
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, turnaround costs for the Chemical Business totaled $870,000 and $1,788,000, respectively.
 
 
(3)
During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2007, we recorded the realization for losses on certain nitrogen-based inventories of $407,000 and $53,000, respectively.  For the same periods in 2006, we recorded the realization of losses of  $1,110,000 and $328,000, respectively.  During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2007, we realized insurance recoveries of $1,500,000 relating to a business interruption claim associated with the Cherokee, AL facility.  During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006, we realized insurance recoveries of $882,000 and $287,000, respectively, relating to a business interruption claim associated with the El Dorado, AR facility.  The above transactions contributed to an increase in gross profit.

 
(4)
Our chief operating decision makers use operating income by industry segment for purposes of making decisions which include resource allocations and performance evaluations.  Operating income by industry segment represents gross profit by industry segment less SG&A incurred by each industry segment plus other income and other expense earned/incurred by each industry segment before general corporate expenses and other business operations, net.  General corporate expenses and other business operations, net, consist of unallocated portions of gross profit, SG&A, other income and other expense.
