REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM Plan Administrator MacDermid, Incorporated Profit Sharing and Employee Stock Ownership Plan: We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits of MacDermid, Incorporated Profit Sharing and Employee Stock Ownership Plan as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the related statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the Standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of MacDermid, Incorporated Profit Sharing and Employee Stock Ownership Plan as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held at end of year is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis. Current values of investments are determined using quoted market prices and current yields. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. The cost of investments sold is determined on an average cost basis. Interest and dividend income is recorded when earned. (B) TRUST FUND Effective December 1, 2003, The Charles Schwab Trust Company (Schwab) was named the Trustee of the Plan. Wachovia was the Trustee through December 1, 2003. Under the terms of a trust agreement between the Trustee and the MacDermid, Incorporated Profit Sharing and Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the Plan), the Trustee manages a trust fund on behalf of the Plan. The Plan Trustee has discretionary authority concerning purchases and sales of investments in the trust fund. The investments and changes therein of this trust fund have been reported to the Plan by the Trustee as having been determined through the use of current values for all assets and liabilities. (C) USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management of the Plan to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and changes therein, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (D) PAYMENT OF BENEFITS Benefits are recorded when paid. (2) PLAN PROVISIONS The Plan, as amended and restated, is a defined contribution plan sponsored by MacDermid, Incorporated (the Company). All domestic employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan. This includes employees of MacDermid Incorporated and its continental United States subsidiaries, except Dynacircuits LLC. Beginning April 1, 2002, MacDermid Equipment employees were eligible to participate. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company announced the merger of the Polyfibron Technologies, Inc. Retirement Plan and the MacDermid Equipment Money Purchase Pension into the Plan. In connection with the merger into the Plan, participants (or to their beneficiaries) were given the option of receiving a distribution or transferring their balance to the Plan. During 2003, $3,589,749 and $658,445 were transferred from the Polyfibron Technologies, Inc. Retirement Plan and the MacDermid Equipment Money Purchase Pension, respectively. Effective March 31, 2002, the Company announced the termination of the MacDermid Equipment, Inc. 401K Plan (ME4 Plan). In connection with the termination of the ME4 Plan, the assets were distributed to participants (or to their beneficiaries). Distributions were made, in whole or in part, in the form of eligible rollover distributions to the MacDermid, Incorporated Profit Sharing and Employee Stock Ownership Plan or an IRA. The forfeitable portion of eligible, active participants' account balances became fully vested on the date the ME4 Plan was terminated. During 2003, the Company amended the ME4 Plan to merge it into the Plan, and $69,115 was transferred into the Plan from the ME4 Plan. Effective January 1, 1999, the ESOP provision of the Plan was changed to allow participants to contribute to the Plan using pre-tax dollars to purchase company stock. This provision is referred to as a KSOP. Under the terms of the Plan, employees are eligible to contribute under the KSOP, 401(k) and after-tax options on the first of the month following their date of hire. Participating employees may elect to have up to 10% of pre-tax wages contributed to the Plan under the 401(k) option, and up to 7% of pre-tax wages under the KSOP provision. Participating employees may elect to have up to 3% deducted from their after-tax wages and invested in the same investment options as the 401(k) arrangement. The Company will match 50% of the employee's KSOP contribution, up to a maximum of 3.5% of the employee's compensation. Employees may elect to make pre-tax contributions up to the IRS limit of $12,000 in 2003 and $11,000 in 2002 to the same investment options as the 401(k) arrangement. Catch-up contributions can also be made by employees age 50 and older up to $2,000 for 2003. Participants of the KSOP portion of the Plan are restricted from liquidating their MacDermid Stock Investment holdings (both employee funds and employer match) until they reach the age of 55. At age 55, they are permitted to diversify their holdings into other investment options of the Plan. The Company may make profit-sharing contributions to the Plan. This is a discretionary contribution determined by the Board of Directors. Employees become participants in the Profit Sharing Plan as of December 1st of the first plan year during which they are an employee, provided their employment by the Company commences on or before July 1st of such plan year and they are at least 18 years of age, or as of December 1st of the second plan year if their employment with the Company commences after July 1st of the first plan year and they are at least 18 years of age. Profit sharing contributions were $0 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. Employees vest immediately in their contributions. As required by the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, the Plan adopted new vesting requirements. All matching contributions made on or after January 1, 2002 will vest pursuant to a 3-year cliff. All matching contributions prior to January 1, 2002 will remain on a 5-year cliff. The exception is that full vesting will apply when an employee attains age 55, dies or becomes totally disabled. Any forfeited amounts related to the maximum additional 3.5% of compensation allocated to the MacDermid Company Stock Fund are used to reduce the cash contribution required by the Company in the following year. Forfeitures available to reduce future employer contributions amounted to $79,739 and $108,460 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Forfeitures used to reduce employer contributions amounted to $122,286 and $227,853 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Distribution of participants' accounts upon separation shall be paid in (a) a lump sum, or (b) equal installments over a period not to exceed 15 years. If the non-forfeitable balance does not, and did not at the time of any prior distribution, exceed $5,000, the participant's account shall be distributed in a lump-sum. The Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, but necessarily reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the Plan at any time. If it is necessary to discontinue the Plan, the assets in the Trust Fund will be used to provide benefits in accordance with the provisions of the Plan document. (3) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The Plan has received a tax determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) dated July 13, 1995 indicating that the Plan qualifies under the provisions of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and is exempt from federal income taxes. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter, however, the Company believes the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable sections of the IRC. The plan was amended and restated on January 1, 2002 to incorporate recent amendments required as a result of current law changes. The Plan has been submitted to the IRS for a new determination letter and is currently awaiting a response. Plan participants are taxed on plan benefits at the time of distribution to the extent such distribution exceeds a participant's post-tax contribution to the Plan. Effective January 1, 1993, the Plan withholds the mandatory 20% federal tax from all taxable distributions, which are not direct rollovers. The tax consequences to the participant will depend on the type of distribution (lump sum, annuity or installments). (4) INVESTMENT PROGRAMS In December 2003, a number of investment funds available to Plan participants were eliminated and replaced with new funds, due to the change in Plan Trustee. The following list summarizes this change: Eliminations Additions ------------ --------- First Union Stable Investment Schwab Stable Value Advisor Fidelity Advisor Mortgage Securities T Strong Government Securities Investment Evergreen Select Core Bond Fund One Group Bond I Federated Capital Appreciation A Excelsior Value & Restructuring Evergreen Special Equity UBS US Small Cap Growth Y Plan participants may now elect from among 15 separate investment funds in which to have their contributions and a portion of the Company's contributions invested.

(5) INVESTMENTS The following table represents the fair value of investments. Investments that represent 5% or more of the Plan's net assets are separately identified: DECEMBER 31, ------------- 2003 2002 ------------- ---------- MacDermid Incorporated Company Stock Fund $ 80,686,697 $56,948,479 Schwab Stable Value Fund. . . . . . . . . 24,033,547 --- Wachovia Stable Value Fund. . . . . . . . --- 22,032,956 Davis NY Venture Fund A . . . . . . . . . 6,887,787 4,982,457 Other investments . . . . . . . . . . . . 21,386,124 15,678,606 ----------- ---------- $ 132,994,155 $99,642,498 ============= ========== (6) NET APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) During the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Plan's investments (including investments bought and sold, as well as investments held during the year) appreciated (depreciated) as follows: NET APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) IN FAIR VALUE ----------------------------- DECEMBER 31, ----------------------------- 2003 2002 ----------------------------- ----------- Company Stock Fund $ 29,800,399 $15,135,822 Other investments. 3,060,580 (3,376,504) ----------------------------- ----------- $ 32,860,979 $11,759,318 ============================= =========== (7) PARTICIPANT NOTES RECEIVABLE Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the investment fund from (to) the Loan Fund. Loan terms range from 1-5 years or up to 10 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear interest at a rate commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined quarterly by the Plan administrator. Interest rates range from 5.25% to 5.75% at December 31, 2003. Principal and interest is paid ratably through regular payroll deductions. (8) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by Charles Schwab. Schwab is the Trustee as defined by the Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Fees paid by the Plan for the investment management services amounted to $303 for the year ended December 31, 2003. Prior to the change in Trustee, fees paid by the Plan for the investment management services of Wachovia Securities amounted to $211,288 and $238,638 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. (9) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Subsequent to December 31, 2003, the Company re-constituted the membership of the MacDermid, Incorporated Investment Committee by removing the existing six Committee members and replacing them with three new Committee members.
